Chapter 25: Another Rebellion
Looking at the thick black smoke coming out everywhere below, and there were a lot of fires shining, the city was in a state of chaos at a glance, and a group of people all looked at Xu Yi in surprise.
Count Gandal, who had just been promoted to the position of Director of the Imperial Commercial Agency of Candela last month, pondered for a moment, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"President Xu, I thought that the Kulanyi Kingdom would at least put up a position to welcome our arrival......"
Xu Yi frowned, thought for a moment, beckoned behind him, and beckoned the commander of the magic airship where he was located.
"Send the order down, send a small team outside to investigate. Judging from the situation here, the murderers here should not have run far to get those guys back for me. β
"Yes. The commander was ordered to leave, and soon he was able to convey Xu Yi's order through the communication device on the magic airship.
A moment later, the eight magic airships flew out in groups of two, divided into four directions.
"President Xu, it's become like this below, aren't we ......" Seeing that Xu Yi's face was not good, Marquis Gandal's tone became cautious.
"Wait, I'll go down and see. β
After Xu Yi dropped a sentence, his figure suddenly disappeared in front of everyone.
The Marquis of Gandal and the other representatives of various countries and chambers of commerce who came with Xu Yi were all stunned.
What Xu Yi means in his words is...... He actually went down to the city below to investigate the situation himself?
That's too risky, isn't it?
But everyone reacted immediately.
Xu Yike already had a strong strength at the level of a magister ten years ago, so how could there be any danger.
Come to think of it. Everyone let go of their worries about Xu Yi's safety.
But looking at the chaos in the city below, everyone's hearts were full of worries about the prospects of this operation.
For this investment action that came to the Kingdom of Kuranyi. The various countries and chambers of commerce they represent are not very confident in the first place, and the reason why they will send representatives is only because of Xu Yi, not because of how strong their confidence is in the Kuranyi Kingdom.
Originally, they thought that Xu Yi must have arranged everything, which would bring them all here.
But they didn't expect that as soon as they came here, the city below that was supposed to be the royal capital of the Kulanyi Kingdom was actually in chaos. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a "stable situation, suitable for investment".
If it weren't for Xu Yi, they would only be afraid of seeing this situation. The first instinct was to immediately turn around and leave.
What is the value of a country that can't even keep its own kingship worth investing in?
This question also flashed in Xu Yi's mind, and he was thrown out immediately.
He chose the first eastern development plan to be carried out as the Kingdom of Kurani. It's not because the environment is good enough. Precisely because the environment here is poor enough.
As early as when he decided to implement this plan in the second year, and then selected the target and finally determined it to be the Kuranyi Kingdom, Xu Yi had already had a relatively full understanding of the situation in the Kuranyi Kingdom through various investigations.
This kingdom of Kurani ...... Strictly speaking, there has never been a relatively complete state system, so it is a bit reluctant to call it a kingdom in fact.
Although the Kingdom of Kurani has always had kings, since the creation of the Kingdom of Kulanyi for more than 300 years, its kings have changed as many as eleven surnames. Not even a single family has been able to rule this kingdom for more than thirty years.
Such a country where the evidence is extremely shaky and where rebellions occur regularly. Obviously not a good place to invest.
However, Xu Yi chose this place.
His idea was simple, if such a country could be fully integrated into the magic industry development system, so that it could become a stable country that could concentrate on the development of the magic industry, then there would be no country in the eastern part of the continent that could not solve this problem.
This choice is a bit irrational from another point of view.
After all, if you choose countries with better environments, the results will come faster and easier.
However, Xu Yi's purpose was to fully develop the eastern countries of the entire continent, so he deliberately chose the most difficult object as his first goal, just to be able to advance faster in the future.
Merely...... The facts he saw in front of him made his first step seem a little difficult.
"Rescueβ"
A shout suddenly sounded in front of the left, and then it stopped abruptly.
Xu Yi frowned, his body moved, and instantly flashed to the location where the voice came.
Several strong men in leather armor and armed with large knives were surrounding a woman whose clothes had been stripped of most of her body, and one of the strong men's pants on the lower half of his body had already faded, and he was approaching the woman with a cruel smile.
The woman's mouth was covered by a strong man, and her hands were tied together by another strong man, and she could not move at all, and she was about to be defiled.
Xu Yi snorted coldly, and several wind blades suddenly flew out, accurately cutting through the necks of several strong men.
Several strong men only felt a chill on their necks, and then several streaks of blood spurted out, and they didn't even have time to snort, and they all brushed to the ground.
Xu Yi casually picked up a trench coat and threw it to the woman, and took out the magic call box from his arms again.
"Send guards down to keep order in the city. β
After giving the order to the escort, Xu Yi flew up violently, looked around in the sky, and soon locked on the building complex located in the north of the city and built on a hill.
It was the royal palace of the Kuranyi Kingdom, but a few wisps of black smoke and several fires came out of it, and it was clear that it was not spared.
Seeing this situation, Xu Yi immediately understood that he was afraid that he had just encountered another rebellion in the Kuranyi Kingdom.
After thinking for a while, Xu Yi's figure flickered, and in the blink of an eye, he had already come to the top of the palace.
Looking down, he saw that the palace was full of shouts of killing, and all kinds of strange corpses and blood were everywhere. It seems that the turmoil is not completely over.
However, Xu Yi didn't have much expectations for the situation here, because he had already tried to use the magic phone box to get in touch with the king of the Kuranyi Kingdom, but he had never been able to get a response.
Then either the king threw away the special magic phone box that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce had given him. Either that's dead.
Xu Yi looked left and right, and flew towards a group of soldiers who were scurrying around with knives, wearing leather armor of the same style as the strong men he had seen just now.
The soldiers suddenly saw a person flying from the sky, and after being stunned for a moment, they immediately launched an unceremonious attack on Xu Yi.
Of course, the rudimentary bows and arrows in their hands could not pose any threat to Xu Yi at all.
Xu Yi easily killed all the other soldiers, leaving only one of the guys who looked like a leader.
Learned from Elder Wendini and further researched to gain more utility of illusion magic. Xu Yi easily asked for the information he wanted from the mouth of this leader.
As he had guessed, there was a rebellion in the kingdom of Kurani.
And according to the information provided by this leader, this rebellion was initiated. It was the Grand General of the Kingdom of Kuranyi, General Lefaru.
With his decisive military power and the arrangements made in advance, the king was directly killed by him when the rebellion began. And he also took the opportunity to kill a large number of ministers and generals who opposed him. Now he has basically controlled the situation in the royal city.
As for why he suddenly chose to start a rebellion at this time, this little leader did not know.
Xu Yi also knew that he couldn't ask anything about him, so he asked General Lefaru's current location and went straight to the place.
A few minutes later, Xu Yi went straight into the council hall of the Kuranyi Kingdom, which was located in the center of the palace.
Looking up, there was a tall figure sitting on the throne at this time, but it was not the king of the Kulanyi Kingdom who had ended several times with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce before, and Xu Yi had also seen it with his own eyes. It's a big man with a rough face.
Seeing Xu Yi suddenly appear, Dahan was stunned for a moment. Then he shouted and stopped his subordinates from attacking Xu Yi.
"President Xu, you are President Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, right?" Dahan looked at Xu Yi with wide eyes, not only did he not have any panic, but he looked surprised.
Xu Yi is not surprised that the other party can recognize him, because his image has often appeared in the illusions projected by major newspapers and various magic illusion projectors over the years, and has long been known to many people in the Sainz continent.
"You are General Lefaru?" Xu Yi asked rhetorically.
The big man laughed and patted his chest hard.
"That's right, I'm General Lefaru! President Xu, you're here with someone to invest in our Kuranyi, right?"
Xu Yi was not surprised that the other party would know about this, after all, he was the general who held military power in the Kuranyi Kingdom.
However, he frowned, and did not intend to pay attention to the other party's question, and asked rhetorically again: "You killed King Simpson?"
General Lefaru was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Xu Yi to ask this question.
After glancing up and down at Xu Yi, he still laughed loudly: "That's right, I killed him." This guy Simpson, is secretly plotting to get rid of me, how can I let him get his way!"
"I don't care about your grievances with King Simpson, but General Lefaru, King Simpson is a partner recognized by our New Flying Chamber of Commerce, you killed him and plunged the Kingdom of Kuranyi into chaos, but it greatly hindered the investment plan of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce, how are you going to compensate us?"
General Lefaru narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Yi: "What? are you going to avenge that old fellow Simpson?"
Xu Yi was silent.
General Lefarou snorted, a hint of anger in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
"President Xu, I don't think this is any obstacle to your chamber of commerce's investment plan. Even though the old Simpsons guy is dead, our kingdom of Kuranyi is still there. As long as you Xinfei Chamber of Commerce supports me in controlling the kingdom, then I will definitely give you Xinfei Chamber of Commerce far more favorable conditions than Simpson, what do you think?"
Xu Yi glanced at him, and then at the soldiers who were about to move next to him, smiled slightly, and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, I don't like working with people like you. And what you just said reminded me that King Simpson is dead, and you can take control of the kingdom of Kuranyi to cooperate with us. In that case, then why don't we take control of the Kurani Kingdom ourselves?"
General Lefarou's face changed dramatically. (To be continued......)
