As a result, the new governor of the province of Petit fell to a guy named Badi, who was himself Coent's deputy and was well acquainted with the affairs of the province. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is now in power, and he is even more high-spirited, and even Allen asked for a 30% increase in provincial taxes, and he agreed with a pat on his chest. But it was Heath who was suffering next to him, and now that the province of Riss agreed to raise taxes, he, the provincial governor of Reese, naturally did not dare to refuse. In fact, Melanie had already investigated the revenues of these two provinces, and the provinces of Rees and Peti could afford higher taxes, but the Shadow Nation had always been very lenient in terms of taxes, and there had been no major changes in the last decade. So much so that the eastern provinces had to tighten their belts, and the southern provinces were all rich. === Legend of the Dragon King /msf617/===. Of course, the most benefited from that was the provincial governor, otherwise Heath and the others would not have waited for Alan to come back in Mokdan, in order to fight for the independence of the province, so that they could continue to live their previous leisurely life. Unfortunately, they underestimated Allen's methods, and Coente died in Mokdan. Allen directly told them with his actions that it was either obey or die.

After such a fuss, at least until they broke with the Demon Shadow Country, the bigwigs of the two provinces did not dare to have other ideas. Melanie personally sent the men away and returned to the study, where guards were cleaning up the bloodstains. Melanie's eyes were slightly different when he looked at Allen, and Allen said indifferently: "What, do you think I'm too drastic?" ”

"The subordinates don't dare, on the contrary, I think His Highness handled it well." Melanie confessed, "In fact, I was wondering what His Highness would do with the Heath and the others last night. If you agree to their request, it will be the worst thing to do. After this time, they will have to make an inch, and even make a fuss about taxes or goods later. If His Highness refused, and instead agreed to their other demands as compensation, it would not be an appropriate course of action for both parties. It retains the majesty of His Royal Highness, but does not embarrass the adults of the two provinces. ”

"Oh, then you said I killed Coente and handled it well."

Melanie smiled: "The second method, I just said it was appropriate, but I didn't say it was the best." In fact, it's just a compromise. It can be calm for a while, but in the future, the relationship with the two provinces will become an undercurrent. Therefore, the best way is to suppress them by force at the beginning and cut off their self-righteous thoughts. He even did not hesitate to break his muscles and bones, and dismissed all the likes of Coent, and then appointed other suitable candidates. In this case, the economies of the two provinces will inevitably regress, but in the long run, it will be feasible. It's just that I'm not sure if His Highness can kill the killer. ”

Alan smiled: "I'm not as complicated as you think, I only know one, and there is no precedent." Besides, this is Agares, if I behave too weakly, a provincial governor can negotiate terms with me, and then how will I manage the other territories in the future? Coente could have avoided death, but he thought that if I didn't dare touch him, I would have to kill him. Otherwise, they will have no fear in the future. ”

"Anyway, Coente is dead, and His Highness has appointed his deputy. This work is also very good, so that everyone knows that they can be in their current position, which is a gift from His Highness. His Highness can give and he can take it back. They can't do things without trying to do it. Melanie added, "Your Highness is going to the Magic Ring City, and I won't be able to follow me at that time." I am afraid that Your Highness will not be familiar with some people and things within the Demon Shadow Kingdom or Duobia, so I have found a candidate before, so that she can accompany Your Highness for me, so that it is convenient for you to call. ”

"You're very thoughtful, I guess there's someone at the door now, call in." Alan Dao.

Melanie called to the gate, "Margaux, come in." ”

The door opened, and a woman walked in from outside the study. Hair color surrounds, curly like waves. Her complexion was as dark as that of the other Bal women, but she wore silver-gray tight-fitting jackets and trousers, so that the plump twin peaks under the neckline were about to come out, and the surprisingly slender legs showed wild lines. The Bal are indeed a race rich in beautiful women, and they are all sexy and wild, enough to arouse the desire of male creatures to conquer.

Alan shook his head, looked at Melanie and smiled, "You can't mean it, right?" ”

Melanie spread her hands innocently and said: "Margaux is indeed a good talent, she is extremely familiar with the customs of the two empires, and knows the big people in the upper echelons of the empire very well. It's no exaggeration to say that she's a walking repository of information. With her by Her Highness's side, you can save a lot of time. What's more, in terms of human aesthetics, Margaux can also look good. If His Highness needs her to provide another kind of service, believe me, Margaux's skills in that area are also top-notch. If His Highness is not satisfied with such a candidate, then I am afraid that I will not be able to find a more suitable person. ”

Alan gestured, "Okay, Master Melanie." You're thoughtful, I don't know what's okay, so don't talk about it. I am very happy with Miss Margaux. ”

"Your Highness hasn't tried my ability yet, so how do you know if you're satisfied?" Margaux bowed her head slightly and said in a pun.

Alan is not a young man who has just debuted, and smiled when he heard this: "I will ask Miss Margaux for advice when I have the opportunity." ”

Ma Singer put it back, and this action made her even more turbulent: "I'll wait, my lord." ”

Even Melanie couldn't help but cough lightly when she heard this, so as not to embarrass Allen. Outside the study suddenly became noisy, and Melanie frowned as the door pushed open. I saw a burly figure squeeze in, and as soon as the other party entered the study, the room immediately seemed crowded. Alan was delighted and said, "Hubble, when are you coming back?" ”

Squeezing into the study was none other than Hubble the Gato, who was wearing battle armor, and a few new coats of paint could be seen on the armor, and it seemed that Hubble had fought in the Black Gorge. He grinned: "I just arrived, Lao Tzu finished drinking and asked them to give it, but they didn't give it, so I could only find you." ”

Alan couldn't cry or laugh: "You're enough, just come back and look for wine to drink, you're about to become an alcoholic." ”

"How can you fight without alcohol." Hubble patted his stomach and said.

Melanie, knowing that they had something to say, glanced at Margaux and quietly withdrew. Alan walked up to the Gatu, clenched his fist and slammed it into his chest, "What's the situation at the Black Gorge base?" ”

"Drod has taken over my work, and I have killed the big chief of the barbarian settlement, and the little chiefs who are left will not be able to make a climate. Although Zhuode is not very good, it is not a problem to hold the base. I heard you're going to the Ring City, so take me with you this time! Hubble said.

Alan nodded and said, "I originally wanted to bring you here, have you come into contact with the Void Source Power?" ”

"It's coming." Hubble was clearly in a good mood, and the Cato laughed and said, "That barbarian chief is not a fuel-efficient lamp either, and I have fought with him several times." In the end, I fought hard to kill him, and fighting with the strong is really the only way to improve, and in the last battle, I seem to feel the existence of some kind of void source power, but I am still a little short of breaking through. If there is a strong person who asks me to practice my hands, I guess I can break through. ”

"Then go to the Demon Ring City, the strong must be indispensable." Alan patted his head and said, "By the way, come with me to see Shiro." ”

"What's wrong with that kid?"

The two walked out of the study, and Alan said as he walked: "After I went to Mosuo Star, Bai fell into a deep sleep, and it should be that the promotion and transformation came together." Just as you're back, let's go and wake him up. ”

Leaving the City Lord's Mansion, he got into a land car and drove in the direction of the north of Mokdan City. Shiro didn't live in the City Lord's Mansion, in fact, except for Lola, Belmode and Hubble all lived on a street in the north district of Mokdan. There are courtyard buildings, with main houses and courtyards, which belong to the wealthy area of Mokdan.

Hubble, Belmode, and White live together. When Alan went to Moso, Hubble went to Black Gorge, and Belmode left with Alan, so only Bai was left to live alone. After arriving at the house where the three of them lived, as soon as Alan entered the courtyard, he felt that the temperature had dropped somewhat. He looked at Hubble, and the Cato nodded, clearly not Allen's delusion. In this case, it should be a vision caused by whiteness.

Led by the servant to the room where Shiro lived, Alan muttered as soon as he turned into the hallway. It turned out that the entire corridor was frozen, and the servant who led the way whispered, "Lord Bai hasn't come out for almost a month, and ten days ago, we found that the corridor was frozen. We told Mistress Melanie, but he said it was okay and we should leave it alone, so the ice was still here. Why don't we shovel the ice for Your Highness? ”

"No, you can go down." Alan waved the servant away before he and Hubble walked forward. The deeper you go down the corridor, the more and more ice you will find and thicker. At the entrance, the ground is only frozen, and the ice is only a thin layer. But when he got to the white room, Alan saw that the ceiling was also frozen, and there was ice several centimeters thick in front of the door.

Hubble gasped and said, "This kid Bai shouldn't be hibernating, right?" ”

Alan smiled, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "White, I'm back." ”

His voice was not high, but it was penetrating, and he easily slipped through the door and echoed through the white room. After a few moments, Alan felt the temperature getting colder and colder, and both of them breathed with a gray chill. At this time, I heard someone outside shouting softly: "God, it's snowing!" ”

Alan looked out the window of the hallway, where it was dark and snow was falling from the sky. Alan simply pushed open the window and looked out of the window, and the world was a different scene in his eyes. In the flying snowflakes, there are also pieces of shining ice crystals, each of which is full of rich frost source power. Looking at the sky, Alan was stunned. On the thick gray clouds in the sky, a huge pattern of six central flowers appeared, and from each line of the six central flowers, countless ice crystals were sprinkled one after another, reflecting the entire sky like stars!
