Chapter 307: Waiting for the Rabbit
On the last day of September, the autumn harvest of Prieto was almost coming to an end, and Belinda, who had returned to the trading state of Bora, had returned, this time with an unexpected figure, the Grand Duchess Alexia.
"I really didn't expect Grand Duke Alexia to come here in person, I welcome you on behalf of Preto!" Twilight says enthusiastically to Alexia.
"Call me Lady Kshia, you don't need to be called Archduke or anything." Alexia walked up to Twilight.
Twilight smiled and nodded, even if Alexia recognized Twilight's status, Twilight knew that from now on, the two sides would talk as reciprocals.
"I didn't expect Prito to be so calm." Looking at the civilians not far away, Alexia sighed.
This is not Kexia's kind words, now in Bora City, people are already panicking, not everyone is uninformed, as soon as the Iron Fort is broken, Bora City has been included in the attack range of the undead natural disaster, and Soth City is broken, how can Bora City be able to resist.
"Because my people have faith in their lords." Twilight said lightly, reaching out to invite Alexia into the Lord's Mansion.
And when Alexia walked into the lord's mansion, she was attracted by the heroic waitresses standing guard at the door and in the corridors.
"Did you train all this?" Alexia said curiously.
Twilight shook her head and laughed, "This is my sister's usual boring training."
"It's not idle and boring, I'm your personal chief of internal affairs." A slightly pungent voice, I saw two women walking from the opposite side, one was Hekas and the other was Dawn.
Dawn walks up to Alexia and says hello politely, but Hekas walks to Twilight's side in no regard for everyone.
"This is my sister Hecas, spoiled by me." Twilight smiled wryly at Alexia, but she didn't blame Hekas for her rudeness.
Alexia can see from this that Twilight is fond of this girl named Heckas, Alexia has heard Belinda say that Twilight loves a girl named Anissa, and when she first met Hekas, she thought that this girl was Anissa!
Walked into the hall of the Lord's Mansion with Alexia, Belinda and the others, and after taking their seats relative to each other, Alexia was silent for a while before getting to the point.
"Lord Twilight, I heard Belinda say that you plan to transfer all of Bora City to Preto." Alexia asked directly.
Twilight nodded, "Yes, I think you've seen the threat of the Scourge of the Dead to Bora City."
"Then how can Prito resist the undead scourge? Just an unfinished steel fortress? You must know that the Undead Scourge can also enter Preto from Bora City upstream. Alexia said with a smirk.
Twilight touched her nose and said, "I have a plan to build an iron lock on the Darren River, but that will be after the steel fortress is completed, and the current Preto will not be able to start work on both sides."
"Is it too late? And even if you have time, will you be able to stop the undead scourge?" Alexia asked, having to say that she had taken everything into account.
"Now Prito has enough manpower, but all it is materials and funds, not to mention whether Prito can block the undead disaster, if the undead disaster wants to attack Prito, the premise is that it must break through the city of Darius, but Bora City is different, you are under the threat of the undead disaster at any time." Twilight doesn't say much, and a shrewd woman like Alexia isn't that easy to fool.
"Oh, then you want to transfer Bora City because of a lack of materials and funds!" Alexia looked down for a moment before looking up and asked.
"There are some reasons for this, but the main one is that I want to leave more vitality for humanity." Twilight is telling the truth, and I don't know if Alexia believes it or not.
Alexia did not rush to speak, but fell into deep thought, because Bora City was different from other places, and if the people of Bora City entered Preto at this time, it would be tantamount to treason.
There was silence for a moment, and after about a quarter of an hour, when about half of the sand from the large hourglass in the hall had lost about half of it, Alexia spoke.
"If the people of Bora do come, what will they receive? What will the mandala be treated and what will the other nobles be treated? What will the officials be treated for?"
Alexia asks four questions in a row, which are certainly difficult to answer when Dawn and Belinda are involved in the future, but when it comes to Twilight's mouth, she doesn't hesitate to say them.
"The people of Bora City will be treated the same as the people of Primo, Primo will build a new town, and we will divide the land according to the head, the Mandala Chamber of Commerce will have the same status as the Windranger Chamber of Commerce, as for the nobles of Bora City, sorry, they will not get any special treatment, when they come to Primo, they are just civilians, as for the officials of the original Bora City, we will appoint those who are capable."
As soon as Twilight said this, Alexia and the officials who came with her changed color one after another, and if Twilight really said it, those nobles would probably fry the pot directly.
Alexia sneered and said, "Do you think Bora City will agree to these conditions of yours?"
Shaking her head slowly, Twilight said, "I guess those nobles and officials won't agree, but it's the so-called nobles who I care about the most."
"According to what you said, once you transfer the city of Bora, you will own it, and this is not a cooperation, but a merger. It seems that our conversation can only end here, even if the city of Bora is ruined, it will not agree to such a request, but without our help, I'm afraid you Prito will not last long!" Alexia said as she prepared to get up.
"Mom, let's talk again." Belinda grabs Alexia as she grabs her, and then her eyes look at Twilight with anger and a hint of pleading.
Belinda gave Twilight such a look for the first time, and Twilight knew that she had made it difficult for her, and she couldn't help but soften her heart, "Tell me about your conditions!"
Alexia looked at Twilight with a calm face and said, "We only have one condition, autonomy, and if you agree, Bora City will do its best to help you."
"Lady Keshia, do you think that without your support, Prito would have come to a standstill, or even be unable to cope with the disaster that would follow?" Twilight asks with a smile.
"Isn't it? If we don't expect it to be bad, Prito is already in a situation where the economy is not working. A female officer beside Alexia sneered.
"Lady Kashia, I can promise you that the new city will be in charge, but the army must be in the hands of Preto, this is my bottom line." Twilight looks at Alexia, then Belinda, a condition that Twilight wouldn't have agreed to if it weren't for her.
"Bog City will not agree to this condition!" Alexia got up again, this time really leaving.
If it was an ordinary nobleman, maybe Twilight would have agreed to this condition, but Alexia was not willing to be annexed to Preto like this, because her relationship with Danas V was not ordinary, cooperation and annexation, these are two different concepts, in short, until the last step, she will never go to Preto.
Looking at Belinda, who was sad as Alexia got up, Twilight suddenly spoke, "Lady Quexia, if you don't mind watching the scenery in Preto, and watch a good show by the way, maybe there will be a way out of Borg City after watching this scene, a way to get the best of both worlds."
Hearing Twilight's words, Alexia suddenly stopped, and Belinda suddenly smiled after being stunned for a moment, she knew that Twilight said that there must be a way to have the best of both worlds, and Belinda had been thinking about it for several days after knowing about the dangerous situation in Borg City from her mother's mouth.
Alexia is a shrewd and strong woman, she has her own intelligence network, so the situation with Darius is clearer than many people, Danas V is such a proud person, he has never begged Alexia, but not long ago he sent a letter asking Alexia to send troops to the royal city, from this it is not difficult to see that Darius has reached the end of the mountain, she also considered Prito when there is no way, but Alexia will never accept it if it is annexed,' The charge of 'treason' is the biggest divide.
Seeing Alexia turn her gaze at this time, Twilight smiled, "Peace of mind staying in Preto, maybe there will be a real surprise, Dawn, help Ms. Kerxia arrange a room."
Twilight sells off, then walks upstairs with a smile.
"What the hell is this guy selling?" Seeing Twilight just leave, Belinda couldn't help but say dissatisfied, but the gloom on her face was much less before.
"Tia, you take someone back to Borg City to preside over the overall situation first, and I'll stay here for a few days." Alexia thought about it and chose to stay first.

Twilight returns to her room and calls for Jira.
"How's the situation in Mooncreek Town?"
"The people of the Black Eagle Chamber of Commerce took a boat out of Preto today, and in the past two days, people have been entering Yuexi Town, and they should all be dressed as mercenaries." Jira told him truthfully.
When the words fell, Jira paused and then continued: "In addition, the Darkwing soldiers have sent back news that there have been many strangers in the Rift Mountain Fortress in the past few days, and some merchants who take the line of Preto and Simtoo have also stopped at the Rift Mountain Fortress."
"Looks like you're ready to do it, Kira, tonight you take Darkwing to the Rip Mountain Fortress, give it to Ari in Mooncreek Town, and bring a letter to Emilio." Twilight quickly picked up her pen and wrote a quick letter, which was a reminder to Emilio on what to do next, until now Emilio had not known about Moonstream's plans, and Twilight was afraid that she would find out that the anomaly in the Rift Mountain Fortress would spoil his good deeds.
Soon Twilight's letter is written, and Gila takes it with both hands and licks her lips unconsciously, the killing is coming.
As she watched Gila leave, Twilight called a waitress and said, "Go tell the guards to help me call General Alberta, and then send someone to find President Gavin of the Windranger Chamber of Commerce."
"Yes!" The young maid answered loudly, turned and walked briskly to find the guard.
Soon Alberta arrives at the Lord's Mansion and walks directly into Twilight's study after the maid announces.
"Are the soldiers ready?" Seeing Alberta Twilight's straight to the point.
"No problem! When are we going to move?" Alberta Road.
"Don't worry, drink something first, and wait for Gavin to come over." Twilight points to the wine trail in front of Alberta.
The two were talking, and before the voice fell, Gavin had already arrived at the lord's mansion.
"Just as I was talking about you, you came." Twilight smiled at Gavin as he walked in.
Gavin: "My lord, what do you want me to do?"
"How's Smtoo's mapping?" Twilight asks.
"The Duchy of Keanu is finished, the Duchy of Fidit, the Duchy of St. Munn are being painted." Gavin said as he pulled out a map from his bag and handed it to Twilight.
Twilight spreads out the map as Alberta arrives, and Twilight looks and points to a location on the outskirts south of the Nopsala, "There's a town founded by Smutoo called Nopetown, named after the Nopsala."
As she spoke, Twilight moved her finger to the Rift Mountain Fortress in the middle of the Nopshala Mountains and said, "Smtoo is expected to do something to us in the past two days, you will go to the Rift Mountain Fortress with the Dreadnought Fortress tonight, and I will have people clear out the spies who can find you along the way, but you can't enter the city, you can decide the location yourself, I just want you to defeat the Split Mountain Fortress as quickly as possible when Smtoo's troops attack the Split Mountain Fortress."
Hearing Twilight's words, Alberta nodded, and seeing this, Twilight's finger moved to the town of Knope again and said, "After defeating the Smtoo army, you can directly capture the town of Knoop, you can choose what method you want, but the speed should be fast, the closest to the town of Knope is Fort Sengree in the Duchy of Keanu, if you can take this place down as well."
Twilight said but folded the map and handed it to Alberta, Gavin, who was listening to this qiē on the sidelines, couldn't help but look at Alberta a little differently at this time, Twilight's words only set a general direction, but did not talk about the specific details at all, it was all up to Alberta to decide, this is completely trust in Alberta naked/naked.
A powerless wasted man made Twilight trust so much, he must have an extraordinary side, at this moment Gavin faced up to Alberta, and at the same time, from Twilight's words, Gavin also felt Twilight's control over the entire Preto, and every qiē seemed to be in Twilight's control.
After seeing off Alberta and Gavin, Twilight thinks that there is nothing left to arrange, and now everything is all that is left for the east wind, or the trees are ready, just waiting for the rabbit to hit her. (To be continued......)
