Chapter 325: City-State Infighting?

Holding a glass of red wine, Bernice smiled and leaned close to Arun, and under her faint gaze, all the people around him consciously flashed to the side.

I heard that the golden dragon not only contributed a huge dragon crystal to you, but also gave you a fire god bead, but unfortunately, such a treasure is not suitable for us to use. Bernice blushed, expressing both admiration and regret for the treasures that Aaron had obtained during the war. Both of them are evil powers, so they are naturally not suitable for using pure yang treasures like the Fire God Bead!

However, although he was not suitable for the Vulcan Bead, Aaron easily found its owner. The undead demon Gerald swallowed the bead in one gulp, and with the help of this huge flame energy, Gerald's speed of recovering his strength will be greatly increased!

Shaking his head slightly, Aaron said, "The two things are indeed for me, but as you said, for the time being, they are of no use. The voice paused slightly, and Aaron showed a trace of hesitation on his face, as if something difficult was bothering him.

Bernice's eyes narrowed, and a flash of light flashed, motioning for Aaron to continue.

"It seems that the recent city-state of St. Ferri is too calm! Even the Dragon Fortress has fallen, how can the city-state of St. Phyry still be so calm, will there be some strange things!" "The reaction of St. Ferri is indeed too abnormal! From the fall of the Dragon Fortress to the Eighth Legion's stationing in the Dragon Slayer Fortress, there has not even been a decent counterattack for more than two months! Even though Aaron is in retreat and cultivating, he has been thinking about it in his heart.

Naturally, Her Royal Highness Bernice and other high-ranking officials of the empire are also aware of this matter, and it is precisely because of the abnormality that the Eighth Legion will be temporarily expanded, and Bernice will not be here until now.

Dai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then stretched out, Bernice's eyes flashed with a strange light, and chuckled: "This matter is indeed a bit abnormal, but there is no abnormal information from the imperial intelligence department and your organization for the time being, and it seems that the most elite legions of the city-state of Saint-Ferry are preparing to settle in Brussels." ”

Brussels is the main city of the city-state of Saint-Ferry, and the Holy Dragon Legion and the Silver Dragon Legion suddenly disappeared after rushing there, as if they had no intention of recovering the Dragon Fortress at all. Aaron didn't take Bernice's jokes seriously, and no sane person would think that the city-state of St. Ferri was going to abandon the Dragon Fortress. With the loss of the Dragon Fortress, once the main force of the Aragon Empire breaks away from the southwestern front, nearly half of the territory of the city-state of St. Phiri will be completely enveloped by the edge of the Aragon Empire. If the Dragon Fortress is not recaptured soon, the city-state of St. Ferri will not have a good day.

With a solemn face, Aaron said in a deep voice: "Although the organization can't find out the specific reason, but there are always inevitable factors in abnormal things, since the city-state of St. Ferri will not give up the Dragon Fortress, then there are only two reasons. The two ace legions, maybe they don't think they are strong enough, so they continue to recruit the strong, and even contact with the Dragon Continent, after all, the city-state of St. Phiri has always had some relationship with the dragon clan. ”

"The recruitment of the strong is indeed still ongoing, but with the contact with the Dragon Clan, it is unlikely that the Dragon Clan will directly assist the city-state!" Bernice interrupted Aaron's words at the right time, and her face turned solemn: "Although the Dragon Clan has a dragon god contract with the St. Philip city-state, the scope of the contract is also limited, and the affairs of the Acura Continent are not yet the turn of the Dragon Clan to directly intervene!"

Alun nodded slightly, naturally his understanding of the dragon clan was not as clear as Bernice's, after all, what Walter of the Undead King knew, most of her should also know, because she was Walter's daughter brought back from the abyss.

"Then there is another possibility, something is wrong within the city-state of St. Ferry!" the two eyes met, and a knowing smile invariably surfaced.

"Whether they are accumulating strength or internal trouble, what we have to do is to completely consolidate the Dragon Slayer City and infiltrate the power of the empire wherever it can penetrate, so that even if the city-state of St. Ferri kills, even if my father does not make a move, we are sure that we can defeat them one by one. Although the main force of the empire is still on the southwestern front, without Prince Gustav and the strong man of the city-state of Saint-Ferry, if we are one-on-one, no one should be able to compete with the two of us. ”

Bernice's words made Aaron feel sure, "Even if the Undead King doesn't make a move", doesn't this mean that if the situation is not right, the legendary great existence that stepped into the divine realm may personally take action?

Aaron stopped talking for a while, and exchanged some plans with Bernice about the construction of the Dragon Slayer City, as well as the specific content of the large-scale infiltration of the city-state of St. Ferry through the Dragon Slayer City, and gradually, the banquet also came to an end.

"Lord Aaron, I wonder if there is such an honor to invite you to dance?" The snow-white slender hand stretched out in front of Aaron, Bernice had a faint smile on her face, according to the information she had, the most outstanding genius of the empire in front of her had attended the banquet only a handful of times, and the number of times she invited others to dance and was invited by others was almost zero!

Aaron was slightly stunned, and a hint of an embarrassed smile surfaced, he didn't do those so-called high social dances. But in front of everyone's eyes, even if she can't dance, she can't make the princess lose face, maybe this is the first time Bernice invites someone to dance! At least it's the first person other than the Undead King!

Under the focus of everyone's eyes, a purple-robed woman gracefully dragged a silver-clothed man into the dance arena, and the man waved his hands and feet, all of which were noticeably unfamiliar and stiff. If it is put on others, even the nobles in the army have a heroic spirit, but they will be ridiculed. However, even if the two people in front of him did not match each other, no one dared to laugh randomly, and even forced their eyes to show admiration and admiration.

A dance music is not much easier than a big battle. Finally, the song ended, and so did the banquet.

Under Bernice's control, the Eighth Legion was officially integrated into the defense system of Dragon Slayer City, and at the same time, a large number of local recruits began to be recruited, and a wide range of defense system was gradually forming. Now it can really only be said to be a defensive system, although it is still the Aragon Empire that is in an offensive state, but what is prepared here is defense.

After all, the main target of the Aragon Empire is still the Empire of Light, and the only way to take advantage of the dark forces' large-scale attack is to turn the largest and oldest country of the hostile forces into the dust of history. At the worst of all, it had to be beaten so that it could not turn over before it could turn around and deal with the city-state of Saint-Ferry. Therefore, the current Dragon Slayer City is still in a defensive state, of course, an active defensive state!

With two powerhouses and a large group of masters brought by Bernice, the Dragon Slayer Fortress implemented an active defense phalanx, with an elite squad as the core force, and launched a cleansing of all the resistance forces within a hundred miles of the opponent. In addition to these elite squads, there will also be a large number of troops dispatched from time to time, on the one hand, it can sweep away some forces that are relatively strong and difficult for the elite team to destroy, and on the other hand, it can also suppress and suppress the people's hearts, after all, everyone is afraid of death, and in the face of absolute strength, even if the people of the city-state of St. Ferri still remember their grand duke in their hearts, they have to temporarily succumb.

Once you give in, you will inevitably have a second and third time. If the city-state of St. Ferri has not acted, this temporary submission may accumulate over time and begin to degenerate! Almost, Aaron will be busy again, fortunately there is Robben, at this time, only this Alun's plenipotentiary spokesperson is qualified to completely replace him! But even with Robben, it is still difficult for Aaron to have enough time to cultivate, after all, there are too many affairs, in addition to the Dragon Slayer City, another important thing is also in the intense preparations!

Aaron's cultivation room, the eighteen servants and the green soul joined forces to protect it, the dark place with the strongest defensive force in the entire City Lord's Mansion!

"My lord, the manpower has been fully deployed, and all the preparations on Dulu's side are ready, do you see if it is? In the darkness, a vague dark shadow was reporting to Aaron on all the preparations for the organization in the past few days.

The mysterious aura, the cold mystery, is the shadow skeleton, after nearly half a year of rest, this powerful undead skeleton has finally regained its former strength!

The Dragon Slayer City and all the territories to the south of the city were all unexplored virgin lands, and with the advantage of being close to the water, the claws of the dark left hand finally reached out. With the urgent transfer within the organization and the close cooperation of the city-state branch of Santa Ferry, a large number of elite members are all ready, and as long as Aaron gives an order, the network of the Dragon Slayer City Special Zone will be quickly established, and maybe this will be the new core of the organization in the future, or even the new headquarters!

On the chair, Aaron's face did not move, and he nodded slowly. During this time, he has been paying attention to this matter, after all, Dragon Slayer City is his territory, and he is responsible for all the affairs in the territory, and an intelligence organization that can pay attention to all the affairs within the territory and is completely under his control is essential. The current dark left hand, although it seems that the two are still facing each other on the surface, is actually completely controlled by him!

"Is there any change on Duru's side, is there any concern about the situation inside the city-state of St. Ferry?" I don't know what the reason for the abnormality of the city-state of St. Ferry is, and there is always a thorn in Aaron's heart.

The Shadow Skull shook his head lightly: "There is still no movement!" Duru has sent news that the Holy Dragon Legion and the Silver Dragon Legion are stationed outside Brussels, and since the place where they are has been designated as a military restricted area, the organization has not been able to detect the situation inside, but it is certain that all their main forces are still very stable. As he spoke, the Shadow Skull hesitated slightly, and an unconfirmed, almost entirely Duru's guess of information floated into its mind, and naturally this also flowed into Aaron's heart.

"The commander of the Holy Dragon Legion, Marquis Garr, has recently been very close to the fourth prince Keane, and the marquis is also Prince Keane's uncle! The royal family of the city-state of St. Ferry has never been allowed to have too much contact with the army, even if Manlini is Keane's uncle, he should avoid suspicion during this period. Therefore, Duru combined with the anomaly of all the recent affairs of the city-state of St. Ferry, and guessed that something might have happened in the palace, maybe Durant could no longer handle affairs normally. That's why the Holy Dragon Legion and the Silver Dragon Legion returned to Brussels abnormally, and they have been stagnant there and refused to come here. In the minds of those princes, no dragon fortress could be as attractive as that high position!"

Allen's heart shook suddenly, maybe only Duru's speculation can explain these recent anomalies, Durant has an accident, and the princes are fighting for power. So, how should the empire act! Although the main attention is on the Empire of Light, it would be a waste if the city-state of St. Philip suddenly appeared such a good opportunity, if you don't take a bite!

After thinking for a while, the expression on Aaron's face also changed a few times: "This matter, it is better to discuss this matter with Bernice, with the temperament of this belligerent princess, she will definitely not give up this opportunity." A hint of a smile slowly appeared on his face, as long as there is a war, the forces of the Dragon Slayer City and the forces of the organization, or the forces of Aaron, will have a good opportunity to develop rapidly.

"You go and arrange the establishment of the organization, and let Duru fully cooperate to complete the basic structure of the organization in the fastest time possible. Well, don't let Camilla interfere in this side of the matter, I already have a candidate to take charge!"

The Shadow Skull nodded, and then silently turned into a shadow, and was about to leave to make arrangements, when suddenly another voice sounded in its soul: "Let Duru test the situation in the palace, and pay attention to him, don't at this juncture, something is wrong with him." ”

............

"What! You said Durant was dying? You said the princes of the city-state of St. Philee had come together?Where did the news come from?Is the news accurate?" In the living room of Bernice's residence, before Arlen had finished his report, the frosty princess stood up from her chair instead of her usual composure. Although he knew that the source of Aaron's news must be the dark left hand, there was no room for error in this kind of thing.

"Your Highness, I'm not done yet. Bernice's reaction made Aaron's heart move, and he said unhurriedly: "Actually, this matter is not intelligence, but our organization's speculation based on the anomalies of the city-state of St. Ferry, as well as some things that are rare in the imperial capital, after all, the palace and the military camp are within the scope of the organization's exploration, and we can only make some guesses based on some signs outside." ”

Seeing that Bernice's face slowly sank, Aaron paused for a moment, and continued: "But I personally think that this speculation is also somewhat reasonable, and only this situation will make several legions such as the Holy Dragon and the Silver Dragon have such abnormalities. ”

Her face had flattened, and Bernice sat down again. If Durant is not right, the city-state of St. Ferry, without the protection of Prince Gustav, will inevitably have a civil strife, and some of the most powerful princes and the most elite legions will inevitably have some conquests. Well, this is the empire's best chance. It's just that I've never heard that Durant is unwell, so how can he suddenly fail.

The blood-colored light flickered, and countless thoughts flashed in Bernice's heart, and suddenly her eyes were fixed on Aaron, and Bernice said in a deep voice: "Is it possible to determine this matter as soon as possible? Without accurate information, it is difficult for me to open my mouth to my father." After all, he meant to take the Empire of Light as the most important goal!"

There was a fiery aura in his condensed gaze, Alun stared at her, and slowly shook his head: "It's difficult, it's almost impossible!" The interior of the main city of the city-state must be needless to say, and there is no way in the military camp, and if this thing is true, those under the prince and several ministers are definitely not qualified to know about it. So, except for the fact that a few princes and legions were relatively close, everything came from speculation. But I've given orders to go, and they'll do whatever it takes to investigate. ”

Bernice naturally knows the difficulties involved, the first to be affected by the war on the Acura continent is a large organization like the Dark Left Hand, after all, no country would want to have a poisonous snake at home. At such a time, news came from Brussels, and the energy of the dark left hand was already admirable. However, Bernice also knew that if she could not be sure of the accuracy of this news, she would not be able to fight the emperor for a day.

If there is no reinforcement from the imperial capital, with the current strength of the Dragon Slaying City, there is no doubt that the city-state of St. Phiri will not be able to be destroyed. After all, when the crisis fell into the city-state of St. Ferry, those few legions that were temporarily in a state of confrontation would probably stop immediately and turn to deal with her. But if you don't act, it's a pity that you can't take advantage of such a great opportunity.

Bernice never thought that a few princes would split the city-state of Saint-Ferry, after all, the prince was only a representative of a group of forces. When the city-state of Saint-Ferri was divided, the good days of these forces came to an end. Therefore, they will definitely not let the prince make too much trouble. Unconsciously, his fingers tapped lightly on the slender **, to determine the accuracy of the message as soon as possible, all armies must be fully prepared for combat, and the infiltration action must also be greatly improved.

One thought after another came to Bernice's mind, and she was even considering whether to send a mission directly to Brussels, if Durant didn't receive the mission, then it would be almost certain. It's just that if you send an embassy now, maybe the city-state of St. Ferry won't accept it at all! Bernice pondered, and Aaron was also pondering, and the living room gradually became silent. Suddenly, an earth-shattering roar came from afar, just dozens of miles away, and in the blink of an eye, it had already reached the sky above the Dragon Slayer City, and the heavy pressure was transmitted, which actually made the air of the entire fortress become a little solemn.
