Chapter 236: Ciro and Rand
The war in this world is mainly based on cold weapons, relying on the accumulation of numbers to win the war, the loser is of course defeated, but the winner will also have a certain loss.
But the appearance of the Explosive Fruit broke this phenomenon.
The Explosive Fruit does not need to be close to each other, it is extremely powerful and the lethality is amazing, and a soldier, in the case of a sneak attack, can easily kill dozens of enemies by using multiple Explosive Fruits.
It's an unfair thing.
But there is nothing fair or unfair in nature, under normal circumstances, the number of exploding fruits will not appear so much at the same time and in the same place, but it can't prevent Green from planting exploding fruits on a large scale.
Not only did Green master the art of seed cultivation, but he also had the magic of ripening.
Because of these two reasons, Green was able to provide a large number of explosive fruits, and these explosive fruits could affect the war situation between the kingdom of Andre and the orcs and Norton.
Wizards, that's how powerful they are.
Of course, it has to reach the level of Green, and a wizard with so much magic mastered by Green can do this, and replacing Green with Anroth can't do this.
However, Anroes can also influence the course of the war to a certain extent, and Anroos can join the army or directly assassinate the enemy's high-ranking officials.
But doing so is risky, and there are more or less spellcasters in both the human army and the orc army.
As the scales of victory tipped in favor of the kingdom of Andri, a conflict arose between Rand and Ciro.
Ciro felt that this was not a good sign, and the army was firmly controlled by Rand, and once the war was won, Ciro felt that he had no advantage in the succession to the throne.
You can't let things go on like this.
Ciro thought that Rand's Exploding Fruit army was formed after Rand went to meet Green, so there must be a certain relationship between Exploding Fruit and Grimm.
With this in mind, Ciro decided to meet Green.
Ciro didn't say hello to Rand and secretly left the station.
But all this was leaked by an official under Siro, and Rand already knew this information as soon as Siro walked out of the station, but Rand didn't say anything.
Green has already said that he will not favor anyone else in his succession to the throne.
Ciro arrived in New Zealand and was slightly surprised.
It's a new city, it's not big, and the planning is very ordinary, but Ciro noticed that it's very orderly, and it's peaceful for both civilians and refugees.
It seems that this place has not been affected by the war at all.
People are still working normally, living normally.
"Lord Duke, His Highness Ciro has come down. β
Hansen informed Green of the news.
Hansen used to be a knight of Andrew's Kingdom, and he was not familiar with the princes of the kingdom, but he knew his appearance, and the appearance of Siro was not an ordinary person at first glance.
"What happened to the war between the AndrΓ© Kingdom and the Orcs and Norton?"
"Back to Lord Duke, since His Royal Highness Rand obtained the Explosive Fruit from you, Lord Duke, and formed the Explosive Fruit Army, the army of the Andre Kingdom has turned from a disadvantage to an advantage on the battlefield. β
"Now we've regained a lot of territory, back to a half. β
"According to this trend, it should only be a matter of time before the army of the Andrean Kingdom completely defeats the orc army and Norton, and it will be completed in less than two months. β
Hansen voiced his speculation.
Green nodded and said, "In this way, Ciro is probably here to ask for help this time, and Rand has gained a lot of prestige in the army with the help of the Explosive Fruit, and many nobles must have secretly taken refuge in Rand." β
In comparison, Ciro did not contribute to this war, but compared with Rand, his contribution was much less, and when the war ended, Ciro would inevitably receive much less support than Rand. β
After a while, one of Hansen's subordinates came in.
"Your Excellency, Your Highness Ciro has entered Orleans. β
Through the New Zealand trip, Ciro's impression of Green has changed a lot, although the explosion of the fruit has made Ciro have certain expectations for Green, but seeing the situation in New Zealand, Ciro found that he still underestimated Green.
It is not something that ordinary people can do to build a new city like this, and manage it in an orderly manner.
Not to mention that there are many things in New Zealand that Ciro has not seen, and it is that the faces of those refugees are shining with happiness, which shocks Ciro.
And when he entered Orleans, Siro was even more shocked.
The situation in New Zealand has surpassed most cities in the Kingdom of Andrew, and the situation in Orleans is even better than the royal city of the Kingdom of Andrea.
It's not about the level of affluence, but about the appearance of the whole city, which makes people feel comfortable.
And the royal city of Andri, but a city of hundreds of years, how many years has Orleans been like this?
The citizens in Orleans were ordinary commoners, not nobles, how could they know etiquette so well?
Ciro was shocked and puzzled.
In turn, Ciro became even more interested in Grimm, and Siro discovered that his brother, whom he had never known, might have more talents than any other prince.
If such a person can be used by me, thinking of this, Ciro is a little warm.
"Lord Duke, His Highness Ciro has come down. β
"Please come in. β
"Green, long time no see. Ciro smiled and greeted first.
"Ciro, how do you have time to come to me?"
"Akito doesn't speak darkly, Green, I'm here to ask for help this time. Ciro said, "As long as you are willing to help me, I can pay whatever price I can." β
"Help, what help, the one who defeated the orc army and Norton, or the one who helped you defeat Rand?"
"It's best if you have both!"
Green smiled and said: "I can provide the former, that is, the explosive fruit, if you want, the trading conditions are the same as Rand, if you want it, I can't help it, I said, I won't help any of you, whether it's Rand or you." β
With that, Green handed the terms of the Exploding Fruit deal to Ciro.
Ciro's eyes widened violently when he saw it.
"It can't be!"
"What can't be?"
Siro looked at Green suspiciously, and said, "Green, did Rand really use this condition to trade with you?"
"Not bad. β
"I can't agree to this condition, it's too expensive!" Ciro said: "Green, you are also one of the princes of our Andre Kingdom, if the Andre Kingdom does not exist, how can your territory exist?"
