CHAPTER XVI
"Ten years after the race war, it's time to offend orc territory again. I'm afraid it will provoke disputes" Representative Pfister mentioned that for Fez's current situation, it is no longer possible to use huge national forces to support such a war. In exchange, there is no other good effect at all except the destruction of life.
But Codiano doesn't think so, as Codiano is the most technologically advanced among the five major countries and has the resources of the dwarves behind it. With their militarily power, they desperately need a war of expansion to ensure that they can be upgraded to become the most powerful of the five powers.
Representative Codiano retorted: "Delegates, with the current military strength of Codiano. It's just a few orcs, and there's one thing I want to tell you. He paused, stood up, spread his hands and said proudly, "We have successfully captured the outskirts of the Great Gaia Forest, and now we are gathering our forces to march towards the center. Soon, the whole forest will be in our hands!"
Representatives Pfister and Culeste suddenly realized why Codiano had chosen to mediate the dispute between the two countries. What shocked them the most was that Codiano's military level was actually so strong.
The Great Forest of Gaia is divided into three parts: the periphery, the central and the interior. Among them, the defense of the periphery is much stronger than that of the central part. Mighty minotaurs, stone-made golems, and packs of wild wolves. The central gang of slimes and skeleton soldiers, and perhaps some corpses. No one had ever been inside, and no one knew what would be inside.
"Roar...... I didn't expect Codiano to be so strong, so how about voting. The Speaker sighed, picked up a wooden hammer and knocked on the table.
The four representatives of Pfister put their hands down, while the Culester representatives collectively raised in favor. The current situation is that Culeste and Codiano passed by 7 votes
Then, the bill passed. The results will be issued by the messenger, so disband. The Governor slammed the table, and the candle on the wall was extinguished. The entire interior was plunged into darkness.
βHerbert Manor, Castel
Theodore slept for a long time before waking up, and Alice and Christine stayed by his side the whole time. When he woke up, the two girls didn't know how happy they were, but because they couldn't bear the company of day and night, they went to rest for the time being.
The head of the village and some of the villagers came to Herbert Manor and brought some fruits and vegetables with them. The main thing was to discuss what should be done about the village at present, and Albert, who had eaten and slept all day long, was also brought over. As soon as this guy with a prosthetic leg came up, he was like the uncle, and he was almost dragged out by Allen to beat.
"We can see that the young master is okay, and we are relieved. Master Herbert, let's all discuss it. The village chief said, turned his head to look at the surrounding villagers, and said again, "In the past, Master Peter took care of everyone, and everyone had such a life. Now that Grandpa Peter is no longer in the village, please lead us!" After speaking, the village chief knelt down, and the villagers behind him also knelt together.
This scene frightened Theodore, and Necheng knelt down as he wanted to chat. Hurriedly got down from the bed, helped everyone up, and said, "I really didn't realize the seriousness of the matter last time, and I didn't realize the extent of the development until now that I was attacked by a sneak attack. β
"What about you...... To say yes or not to agree?"
"Yes, all of you, I don't think there's a problem at all," Herbert said, rubbing his nose, since the battle with the Men in Black. Clara told herself a lot of things and what she was like when she was desperate for her strength. Although Theodore is very underwhelming on the surface, he is always habitually cheap. But the sense of responsibility and responsibility that exists in his heart will force him to take responsibility.
Albert sat on the couch with Erlang's legs across his legs and listened to the group chatting, just laughing. The smile caught everyone's attention, and Theodore walked up to Albert
"What's wrong? β
"It's just to laugh at your naivety, this village of only four or five hundred people. Just trying to resist an army of tens of thousands? It's too simplistic. Albert scoffed, stood up, pointed to Theodore's chest and whispered
"I heard that Codiano had brought a batch of thermal weapons to Culest, and I heard that they could shoot fifty meters away with a bullet from a burning stick. You guys who have never seen the world will be able to afford it at most after training? Hahahahaha! Surrender early."
The villagers were very angry when they saw the people laughing wildly, and they immediately gathered around and pinned Albert to the ground and beat him. Albert let out a few "whoops" and the villagers stopped. Theodore squatted down with a wicked smile on his face, staring at the bruised and swollen face
"I'll tell you, when the time comes, if you win, you'll be slapping yourself in the face. What kind of thermal weapon, is it as powerful as the fireball in my hand? With that, a fireball formed in his hand. Approaching Albert, Albert was so frightened by the red flame that he began to retreat.
Theodore laughed when he saw that he was frightened, and clenched his fist to envelop the flames. Stood up and prepared to walk out of the room, and before leaving, he didn't forget to show a sinister look to people, "You should think about yourself, and see if they will save you when the time comes." β
Albert gritted his teeth and glared into Theodore's eyes. He was once so arrogant, and even the king did not dare to provoke himself, let alone now that he was so humiliated.
- The Kingdom of Pfister, the royal capital
Pfister VIII had three daughters, the eldest of whom married to Codiano due to a political marriage. The second daughter died of an illness, and the youngest daughter in the royal capital was his handsome treasure, named Eliza Pfister. Pfister VIII favored her very much and raised her as his heir to the throne.
And Eliza did not live up to her father's painstaking cultivation of her, and at the age of only 17, she already had unique diplomatic and political views. He has a good set of rules for governing the country, and the most important thing is that the people are extraordinarily beautiful. Eliza inherited her mother's flaming red hair, and her white and handsome face had black eyes. The most common thing for people is that she is wearing a flaming red low-cut dress and long dress, and when she sees someone, she pulls up her skirt slightly and bows. Full of talented women.
- And yet
"Your Royal Highness Princess, are you looking for me?" A squire walked into Eliza's bedroom and saw Eliza sitting in a chair. Facing out of the window at dusk, the black tea in the cup was freshly brewed and steaming.
"I've heard that Custer Village is fun. So did my father choose to send troops?" Eliza said suddenly
The squire shook his head and replied, "I heard that the king refuses to send reinforcements to avoid a confrontation with the men of Culest. Then, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and placed it on the table beside Eliza.
"It smells good, do me a little favor. Eliza sniffed and smiled. Waving his hand, he motioned for the ears to come over, "Help me tell my father, tomorrow I will go to Custer with a convoy of three hundred men." β
The attendant nodded, and immediately turned and walked out of the room. Eliza was the only one left. Eliza's cheeks turned grim, and her mouth showed rows of sharp teeth. Pick up something, open the paper and nibble on it.
A few drops of red liquid dripped onto the floor, and Eliza made a "Kazkaz" sound. Only her attendants and herself knew what it was.
