Chapter 89: The King and the Minister
Fajerez III, a tall and handsome man who looked very easy-going, looked Phinea up and down and said with satisfaction: "Very well, you are back." β
Seeing her father again after a long time, especially when she returned from the front line of the battle against the Demon, it was impossible for Phinea to be unhappy, but she still put business more than her personal feelings, and she said, "Yes, I'm back, father." You must be very worried about the situation in Kiel City, and rest assured that Kiel City is still in our hands entirely, relying on the transcendent and -"
"Alas - you just came back today, we don't talk about government affairs!" Fajerez III waved his hand, he glanced at Feng Chen and the others curiously, and asked, "These are the friends you brought back?" β
Finia was like a hot carbon being poured cold water, and her attitude towards Fajerez III was suddenly a little annoyed, and she said bluntly: "If you don't talk about government affairs, then you don't need to know who they are." β
At this moment, a man with white and slender fingers interjected, "Your Highness Finia! With all due respect, why didn't Master Faltins come back?! β
"The teacher is still defending the city of Kiel, Count Vinicius."
Vinicius looked dissatisfied: "He should go back to the royal capital, the royal capital is the place worth defending." In contrast, Kiel City is just a barbaric land that drinks blood! β
"Are you coming back to protect you?" Finia couldn't help but say.
"It is also his duty to protect me," Vinicius said haughtily, "Vinicius is also one of the noble surnames in the kingdom, worthy of the battle of Master Faltins. What's more, the royal capital has brought together the best cultural achievements of the kingdom for hundreds of years, has the noblest bloodline and the best mind, and he should come back! β
Vinicius's opinion won the unanimous approval of the other ministers.
Even though she had known what these ministers were like around her father, Phinea was still so angry that she really wanted to open the heads of each minister to see what was inside! The most taboo thing about dealing with the fallen demon is to give up the population, but these guys are still shouting to recall the teacher! Are their heads gnawed by bugs?!
Her chest rose and fell, and Phinea exclaimed, "The teacher can't come back!" We've used up the energy of the Kiel City Space Circle! β
"Running out?!" A minister yelled as if he had been stepped on his tail.
"Yes, it's gone!"
"It's all because you brought these unknown guys back, right?!" Vinicius angrily accused.
Before the words fell, Wang Nan's toto ball shot a red light and hit Vinicius's instep, and Vinicius fell to the ground, holding his feet and shouting: "Murder!" Your Majesty! Killed! The people Phinea brought back are going to kill me! β
Neither Fajerez III nor Finia could have expected such a thing to happen. Finia immediately realized that no matter what kind intentions Feng Chen and the others had, they came from a powerful civilization after all, and they would definitely not accept being slighted or even insulted! Before my father makes any moves that intensify the conflict, I must stop him!
Finia immediately said loudly: "You deserve it!" β
In a word, the focus of the audience returned to Phinea herself.
"Father," Phinea then said to the frowning Fajerez III, "I can now introduce you to a friend from another world, or you can understand it as a friend from a place we have never heard of!" They possess a very strong force, and the two people they sent can withstand the attack of hundreds of thousands of demon fallen armies! They came with me this time to discuss how to help us resist the Fallen Demons. Count Vinicius offended such a guest, and he fully deserved it! β
The gazes of Fajerez III and the ministers beside him who looked at Feng Chen and the others changed again.
Facing the gaze of a bunch of old men, Feng Chen was not vain at all, and looked calm and relaxed.
Vinicius was still rolling on the ground and wailing, blood pouring from his fingers. Fajerez III's face changed a few times, and he suddenly smiled: "Since you are friends from afar, you can't always stand here - Brian!" Arrange these friends to the most comfortable rooms, right! It's the ones on the second floor of the West Building! Go ahead! β
Finia turned around and asked, "Feng Chen?" β
"Okay, you guys talk first! I just want to rest! - Let's go! Feng Chen said to Liu Jing and Bachar again.
Fajerez III must have a lot of questions to ask Finia, and after that, most of them have to communicate with his ministers, and Feng Chen is not at all interested in the conversation between the high-ranking people of the Turin Kingdom, so he can go naturally.
Following Brian, Feng Chen and the others communicated through the psychic network.
"What do you think of the kings and ministers of the Kingdom of Turin?" Liu Jing asked.
"I don't think much of it, after all, it's just a meeting." Feng Chen said: "Maybe they are actually better, maybe they are worse. We'll find out later. β
"They're a little short-sighted." Liu Jing said: "Since Phinea knows that the population cannot be ceded to those demon degenerates, these ministers should not be unaware, but they demand that Faltins be withdrawn regardless of the overall situation. I really don't understand their behavior. That's stupid! β
Feng Chen thought of one thing in the three-body problem. When the alien Trisolarans occupied the earth with a crushing advantage and said that they would gradually wipe out human beings, there were still some people who worked for the Trisolarans in order to be able to live to old age and die, helping the Trisolarans deal with their compatriots, which shows that in desperate situations, many people can do anything for their own selfish interests. Perhaps the ministers were desperate to defeat the Demon.
"I wish they were stupid, because the more stupid they are, the better it is for us." Wang Nan said coldly.
Liu Jing: "That's right. But why did you suddenly attack that Vinicius? His words weren't that offensive, and we had a lot of dealings with the upper echelons of the kingdom at this stage. β
"The dignity of both the Federation and the consuls is inviolable, and there is a good saying that we show strength, even in the face of friends." Wang Nan said.
Feng Chen, Liu Jing, and Bachar all nodded.
A few minutes later, Feng Chen and the others were led by Brian, the chief of the guard, to their residences, and each was assigned a room. The room was as luxurious as Feng Chen imagined, with white-toned furniture and exquisite dΓ©cor, making it difficult to find out a trace of dissatisfaction. After Brian left, the three walked into the same room.
"Is there anything I need to look out for?" Feng Chen asked.
He was referring to things like eavesdropping devices, which might be more appropriate to call them eavesdropping circles, given the "tech tree" of the Kingdom of Turin.
"There are a few magic circles in operation, I don't know what they do, but I've cleared them." Wang Nan said.
"Good." Feng Chen said, leaning on the back of the soft sofa and breathing a long sigh of relief: "I don't know how Fenia is doing now." βγ
"Need to be monitored?" Wang Nan asked.
"Forget it, let's just wait for the results." Feng Chen said.
