Chapter 296: The King of One, the King of All

"Kata, Kata. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

The sound of boots on the marble floor in the ornate corridors of the royal city was loud. The garrison officers and soldiers standing guard on both sides of the corridor couldn't help but look at each other when they heard the sound, and then their faces changed.

In their eyes, the director of the "Research Institute", Lomaria Gorenville, who had dark circles under his eyes and a murderous expression, was reflected. This lord is notoriously bad-tempered among the dignitaries of the Nascent Beginning Kingdom, second only to the notorious "Crimson Demon King" in horror.

At this moment, Romania felt the eyes of the guards converge on her, and she couldn't help but stop and glance at them coldly.

"What do you see, I've never seen a beautiful woman!"

At the sound of her rage, the guards hurriedly withdrew their gaze and straightened their stance with extreme stiffness. The "dang long" sound from the collision of the armor overlapped very tacitly.

"Ah, my head hurts. Even the headache of lack of sleep has reappeared, can a fantasy game be so realistic!"

Whining like this, Romania continued to the king's office. Because of the permission granted by Richard, she didn't need to knock on the door to get a response, she just pushed the door open and walked in.

"Richard ......"

At the moment of seeing the scene inside the house, Lomaria was stunned for a moment. Richard was stunned when he looked at the sudden intrusion of Romania, because he was lying on the ground and teasing the black cat that had been raised to soothe his nerves.

Looking at such a leisurely "President King", and thinking of her own all-night tire, Lomaria immediately showed the kind of contempt that she looked at the scum.

Noticing, Richard straightened up for a moment and explained with some embarrassment.

"Ahem, Miss Lomaria, what do you say? ”

"Yes. Romania's fierce eyes didn't change at all, "I really like to take a nap, Your Majesty." ”

Rose's honorific title made Richard get goosebumps all over his body.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm not good for being lazy! Anyway, did you come here because you found the Mirage Desert anomaly? ”

At the moment when the conversation turned to business, Lomaria's expression became serious.

"We've found a program that's let's call it 'Raiders' mode. ”

"Yes. What about the specifics?" Richard also became serious with Romaria's attitude.

"This is supposed to be a PvP siege mode, when the main city in the area is attacked on a large scale, the teleporter and the instant messenger function in the area will be temporarily sealed until the end of the war. However, its algorithm only uses the number of enemies at the time of siege, not the identity of the enemy. ”

That is to say. It's likely that the monster called Anubis who has been having a lot of fun there lately has done a good job. ”

"It's hard to believe, but nine times out of ten, it's likely that they're besieging the city. ”

"Alas!" Richard sighed, "is this a prophecy of yours?"

"What?" said Romania, looking puzzled.

"Hey, hey, hey, Miss Romaria, you don't remember. Richard was very surprised, "When the establishment conference was held, didn't you suggest that it is very likely that the system has prepared a big event for us?"

As soon as she said that, Lomaria remembered.

"I think I did. So, are we going to make a move?"

"If nothing else, just because the player and the civilians of the Hatsuha Peninsula are trapped there, we have to take action. ”

"Isn't it because of the high efficiency and convenience of doing so that the social situation of a centralized state was finally established?"

"It's easy to assemble people. It's a matter of reputation. Richard shook his head again and again, and said in distress.

"Reputation?" "Romania didn't quite understand.

"Yes, it's the Mirage Desert in the north that is in trouble right now, and our Hatsuha Peninsula is in the southwest corner of the continent. Now that the portal is closed, if we want to send troops, we have to borrow from a certain area. ”

"What's the problem?"

"It's a big problem. Before, we were just adventurers without a hint of political background, but now it's different. If the troops are dispatched this time, it will no longer be an adventure for adventurers, but a foreign use of troops on the peninsula in the early days, and it will also be an attack through the road, which will involve political issues. ”

"There is no such problem!" retorted Loumaria aloud, "I have already submitted a report. The main control room under the underground of this royal city controls all the systems, and the adventurer's guild in this city is the leader of all adventurer's guilds in the whole continent, and the merchant guild is the leader of the merchant guild in the whole continent. And now all of these are under the orders of the government of this early peninsula kingdom, which means that the politics, military, and commerce of the mainland are all in our hands. ”

"That's what you mean, this kingdom we have established has the power to rule the continent, which means that the entire territory of the continent should be our domain, so there are no political issues such as territory and sovereignty at all. But, Romania, don't you think that's a bit too crude?"

"There's already a fight over there, there's no news of it!

"It's because the situation is already troublesome, so we can't let it get even more troublesome. Richard's voice suddenly became sharp, revealing an unmistakable momentum, "There is power, and power is recognized, these are two concepts. If we use an attitude of 'we are the administrators of the mainland, so you can obediently carry out what we say', it will definitely cause dissatisfaction, and the worst result will be a fierce conflict." What kind of trouble is it to set up another enemy or enemies in order to bring down one enemy?"

"Well, you have a point. But are we going to stand still because of this?"

"Of course not. It's just that if you want to act, you must find a convincing reason that can be accepted by the other party. That's what I just said. ”

"Isn't it okay to rescue the Mirage Desert?"

"The meaning of being a good man is too strong, and it will make people feel fake. ”

"That's to save the people we're trapped here!"

"What proof do you have that it's our people who are trapped there?"

"Then ......" Lotalia was a little out of ideas, she didn't know much about politics, "this is too difficult for a strong man!"

"Bingo, Miss Romania. Sending troops under the pretext of the excuse is a so-called 'national matter' that requires time to discuss with the other party, and not being able to solve it in a single sentence is what troubles me. Really. If only they could invite us to go. ”

"Knock! knock!"

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

"Report!" came the soldier's voice.

"What's the matter?" asked Richard.

"Two emissaries from 'Ha Woo Haka' and 'Eternal Night Forest' respectively want to meet Your Excellency, and are now waiting in the Audience Hall!"

"I see, it's over. ”

Hearing Richard's reply, Romania hurriedly said, "I'm going too." ”

"You have so deep dark circles, don't you need to take a break?"

"I can hold on to this little time!"

"That's no problem. ”

Immediately, Richard and Romania left the King's office, accompanied by several guards, and went to the Audience Hall of the Royal City. There, sure enough, two soldiers in armor with anxious faces and demeanor like ants in a hot pot were waiting.

"On the Peninsula at the beginning of the day, the President King has arrived!"

When they heard a loud announcement, the two soldiers immediately looked with bright eyes to the king's entrance passage. In their eyes, it was Richard Alphons, who had changed into a full suit of armor and looked imposing, and Lamaria who followed behind him and covered his face with a hood to hide the dark circles under his eyes, but highlighted the unfathomable sense.

The two men entered one after the other through the side door, and came to the center of the high platform of the hearing room, where Richard sat on the throne with great restraint, and Romania stood beside him.

"Ahem. After looking at the unusual expressions of the two soldiers at the foot of the steps, Richard coughed lightly and said in a pretentious voice, "I am ......"

He paused, "President King", which sounds like a stinky fart and a secondary two, no matter how many times he says it, he is not used to it, after all, it is only one year. But since this was an important occasion to meet with envoys from other regions, he had to be more formal.

So, he continued.

"I'm the 'President King' Richard Alphonse, what are you doing with your sudden visit!"

"Boom!"

Hearing this, the two soldiers who saw him immediately knelt down on one knee, and the speed of their movements startled Richard.

"It is a great honor to see the dignity of the new king. I am an ordinary garrison officer soldier in the Hawahaka area. This time, I have been ordered by the chief of the garrison and the general affairs officer of the Hawhaka region to ask the king for help!"

After this soldier finished speaking, another soldier also hurriedly said, "Similarly, I came here to ask for help on the orders of the Lord of the Eternal Night Forest!"

"Asking for help?" Richard couldn't help but feel inexplicable, and couldn't help but forget to let the two of them get up and ask, "What happened to Hahaka and the Eternal Night Forest?"

"Yes! This morning our western border in Hawhaka was invaded by an army of monsters. ”

"Our eastern frontier of the Eternal Night Forest has also been invaded by the same kind of monster!"

The western border of Hawhaka is the eastern border of the Mirage Desert, and the eastern border of the Eternal Night Swamp is the western border of the Mirage Desert, and then the Mirage Desert is under fierce attack by monsters like Anubis.

Thinking of this, Richard's face became solemn.

"Could that monster be Anubis?"

As soon as these words came out, the two soldiers immediately raised their heads in astonishment and asked in unison, "Do you already know?"

"Hmm. Richard nodded and turned his head. It seems that Anubis is not only content to attack the Mirage Desert, but also has Hawhaka and the Eternal Night Grove as targets. But can they be satisfied with these two places? Don't forget that there's a word called "insatiable." In this way, this catastrophic event is not a regional but a world-class event.

The two soldiers at the bottom of the stairs saw that Richard had not spoken for a long time, and thought that he was hesitating, and the one from Hahaka could not hold his breath.

"What should you hesitate about! Now is the time for you to fulfill your duty as a king and send out your army!"

"Huh?" said Richard, curious, "Well, what do you mean by that?"

Seeing Richard's inexplicable expression, the soldier was dumbfounded.

"Do you say that you have been crowned king, but you still do not understand the duties of kings?"

"So, what do you mean? You're not wrong to say that I'm responsible for the Hatsuha Peninsula, but I shouldn't be responsible for you, right?"

"Please don't tell jokes!" the soldier was excited, "Since the time of the gods, the ten regions of the Southern Continent have always been the first to look at the peninsula with the most divine grace. In other words, the lord of the Hatsuha Peninsula is the co-lord of the ten districts, the supreme leader! He has the obligation to govern any region on the mainland, and of course he has the obligation to protect it! Although this relationship has been shelved for a long time because of the enchantment descended by the wrath of the gods, it is also a helpless move! Our ancestors will never forget the grace of the kings of the past generations of the Hatsuba Dynasty, nor will they deliberately break the rules that have been passed down to this day. It is rude that our chief and the general affairs officer have not yet been seen on this occasion regarding the coronation of the new king, but it is also because of the busy business, and it is by no means treacherous. I would like to pledge my life to persuade you two to come to the next day to take the blame. Therefore, please also ask my king to be magnanimous, take back the joke of no responsibility, and be sure to help us!"

"On behalf of the lord of the Eternal Night Forest, I also implore my king!"

Hearing the soldier say these words in one breath, Richard's eyes widened. Although it was the first time he had heard that there was still some clouds and mountains for a while, as a male player, he instinctively felt excited about it.

Regardless of the final outcome, it's really, it's kind of interesting!
