Chapter 161: Brustein in the Mouth of King Fran
At this time, the royal palace of France ......
"Duke Cumberland, what else?"
The king of Farrand sat on his throne and the old god asked, not even opening his eyes.
"Your Majesty, it's about the attitude towards the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment, about the Arrow Turtle Clan, even the manpower sent by our military has not been able to solve it, but this matter has been done by a pirate group, in the end, is our military incompetent, or are the pirates too strong?" Cumberland squinted his eyes, looking like he was laughing, but what he said was very damning.
First of all, if the problem is not big, then the French navy will not be able to do its work, and who is the person in charge of the navy? Naturally, it is Bagas, so the quality of the navy is not high, and he, the commander of the navy, is also responsible.
Secondly, if the problem is very big, and the French Navy is not contributing, but cannot find the reason, then the energy of the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group is a bit big, and it is really not a tiger to raise a pirate like this, and it is also a pirate who has betrayed the country?
"Hehehe......" King Fran laughed, which sounded kind, but it made the Grand Duke of Cumberland's heart flutter. "Duke of Cumberland, if I'm not mistaken, you handled Alonso's application for legal trade approval last year, right?"
How do you ask about this?, Archduke Cumberland frowned, "Yes, Your Majesty. ”
"That's good!" the king patted his thigh and slowly stood up with his back to the Grand Duke of Cumberland, "The report of that little pirate of Gu Brustan, the problem on Arrow Turtle Island is the work of the necromancer of the Alonso Empire, and the timing also coincides, Duke Cumberland, can you give me an explanation?"
As soon as he said this, the cold sweat of the Grand Duke of Cumberland fell, he would not be stupid enough to say that the information reported by Sogers was false, wouldn't that be ironic that the king was a fool who couldn't even tell the truth from the false?
"Your Majesty, this ...... I didn't know that the Alonso Empire still had this kind of conspiracy!"
"All right!" the king interrupted the Archduke Cumberland, who was about to explain, "it's none of your business, but do you want to ask again about the reward of Sogers?" "No, no, no, it's up to your Majesty!" the Archduke Cumberland hurriedly shook his hand, jokingly, if I ask again, you will not be allowed to use the subject to punish me? Yes, with my status as a duke and I don't know about this matter, it won't be too triggered, but it doesn't matter to me whether that kid from Sorjes gets a reward or not, why should I hold on to this matter!
"Well, go down!" the king returned to his throne and sat down, his eyes closed as before, and his face already tired.
"Yes!" said the Grand Duke of Cumberland, and withdrew to the palace.
In the palace, there was no one but the king on the throne, and the empty palace, although magnificent, looked very desolate.
"Can I trust the child?" said King Fran, who opened his eyes as if speaking to himself.
"Your Majesty, you're gambling!"
Suddenly, a man in black armor appeared out of thin air in the palace, this person was covered in black, black face armor, black light armor, black shoes, and a black sword.
The king did not seem surprised by his presence, as if what he had just said was addressed to him. "Gamble, hehe, yes, it's gambling, but he has this value!"
The black-armored man was a little surprised, but he was not stupid enough to figure out the emperor's thoughts, and the people around the emperor often died not in war, but because they talked too much, and if the king wanted to say, even if others didn't ask, he himself would say, and if the king didn't want to say, whoever asked, who would not be far from death......
Sure enough, the king spoke again: "In the Brustein family, everyone says that the suzerainty of this family is a family of three, six, nine and so on, hehe, a father like a god of war, a talented eldest son, and a young son who is unworthy of cultivation?"
"Your Majesty, isn't there anything wrong with this?" the black-armored man couldn't help but interject, what the king said was almost obvious to all.
"Of course it's wrong, and it's a big mistake!" said the King, laughing, and the mention of the Brusteins seemed to make him feel good. "Bagas is indeed the god of war of our flanges, but, what he is good at is fighting, and only fighting! And Raymond, although he is very strong, he is still more than a step behind Alice back then, and the most important thing is that he has been imitating Alice, so when he breaks through to the seventh order and still can't get out of Alice's shadow, then his lifelong achievements may stop there. ”
Speaking of this, the king also sighed, and the hands on his thighs were also clenched into fists, not only him, but even the black-armored man in front of him was a little gloomy, thinking that at the beginning, the first day of the so-called Nine Great Empires died under the conspiracy like this, anyone would feel sorry.
"However, the eldest of the Sorjes family is different, he is not as loyal as his father and brother, but I know that he will not really betray the Empire, and most importantly, although he has his own ambitions, he knows whether he is enough for that pound or two, and besides, you don't really think that his talent is inferior to Raymond, right?"
The black-armored man didn't answer, and the king didn't explain more, just let out a long sigh, just as the black-armored man said, he was gambling, and he himself couldn't be sure that Sogers's ambition would be less than his feelings for the empire, but he wouldn't suffer a loss in this bet, for him, Sojes was a wonder soldier of the old and new generation of the French Navy, and even the king himself didn't know if he could play his real right.
I hope this time it will not go in the way I judged!" thought the old king.
I don't know what kind of conversation is going on in the palace of Fran, and even if he did, no one would take it seriously, and now someone, no, it is Sorgers who is happily directing the construction team to carry out the construction work on his island, and the whole group of pirates is also involved, even he himself is bare-chested and wielding a pickaxe to dig there and follow the workers to lay the foundation.
The overall area of Rainbow Island is not small, the origin of the name of this island is still discovered by Cervantes, as an elf, he prefers the tranquility and comfort in the jungle compared to the exciting life on the sea, the vegetation on the island is very rich, in the dense forest, he clearly feels that the natural power in the body is jubilant, he also rarely showed an excited expression, wandering around alone on the island, and finally, found a spring in the southeast direction of the center of the island, which has dried up, but after he checked the soil on the side, he judged that this spring can still occasionally gush out some liquid, and he has been here for about ten daysHe finally waited for the moment when the spring water came out, and it was that moment that shocked him inexplicably.
The spring water that emerges from the spring presents five colors, this color is not the five colors formed after the refraction of the sun, but the spring itself has five different colors, which looks very strange, .co As an elf, he recognized at a glance that this spring water was the five-color spring recorded in the ancient elf books, and the five-color spring itself was the root of those ancient elves used to cultivate in ancient times!
The ancient elves are now completely invisible in the world, they can be said to be the ancestors of the current elven races, compared to the current elves, they are more powerful, and they can even practice all kinds of magic like humans, and the unique characteristics of their ancient elves are more powerful than the spells of human magicians.
However, the world is fair, the more powerful the ancient elf clan is, the more restrictions they will be subjected to, they are the same as the current elves, their ability to conceive is far less than that of humans, and even the current elves are much inferior, the most important thing is that although they are strong, but whether it is a ranger or a magician, they need the five-color spring as the root of cultivation, if there is no five-color spring, the ancient elf clan will lose the powerful power that supports their race.
Just like now, maybe the five-color spring on this rainbow island is the last spring that can still come out of the spring, and the ancient elves have completely disappeared a long time ago like this spring, but some ancient books have also recorded similar records: the demise of the ancient elves is of course related to the drying up of the five-color spring, but before the extinction, it was the five-color spring that the rest of the races focused on their karma, and the specific situation is no longer verifiable, but it can be confirmed that the five-color spring also has an auxiliary cultivation role for human magicians!
