Chapter 58 Recognition
As a gold-level master, Elson's powerful faction, it is impossible for Baron Cook not to know about the Nine Rings White Tower, the largest force in the Northland, and naturally he also knows how precious the place for further study on the Island of Truth is. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In particular, Daddy York carries the death mark of the Bright Judge on his body, and accepting Daddy York to the Island of Truth is actually equivalent to the willingness of the Nine Rings White Tower to resist the grievances of the Luo Sheng family and the Bright Holy See for the sake of Luo Sheng, which is the support and value of 'Chi Guoguo'.
Although the White Pagoda of the Nine Rings has always been almost openly confronted by the Holy See of Light, it has rarely taken the initiative to provoke the Holy See of Light. The two concessions that Luo Sheng obtained, if there were no Legendary-level bosses to speak, I am afraid that the gold-level mages who were responsible for presiding over the daily operation of the organization would not dare to promise at will.
This also means that Luo Sheng, with his thesis, has already received the attention of someone, or even several legendary mages, and has received their support.
"Boy, yes! Looks like I'm underestimating you. After being shocked, Baron Cook looked at Luo Sheng's gaze much more solemnly. A junior who can attract the attention of legendary mages in the Black Iron Rank and is willing to support him can no longer be regarded as a simple young genius. Even a gold-level master like Baron Cook should pay enough attention.
At this time, Alyssa looked at Luo Sheng's gaze, and in addition to being shocked, there was also a lot of appreciation, and there was even a trace of pride that Alyssa herself was not aware of.
"Your Excellency the Baron has won the prize. It's just that the treatment method I invented is just in line with the needs of the Nine Rings White Tower. Luo Sheng did not have the slightest pride, and still responded very modestly.
As a reborn, Luo Sheng is well aware of his strengths and weaknesses. The advantage is that they have mastered a lot of future information and technology, while the disadvantage is that their own strength is too low and the resources in their hands are too small. Therefore, what you have to do is to throw out some information and technology, and cooperate with other forces in exchange for all kinds of resources you need to grow and accelerate your own growth.
Of course, when he was weak and traded with big forces, Luo Sheng would definitely suffer. Just like this deal, maybe in Baron Cook's opinion, the Nine-Ring White Tower is already full of sincerity and is willing to give two places to enter the Island of Truth for several papers, but Luo Sheng knows that if he takes out this set of things after advancing to the legend, he can exchange more than a hundred times the resources from the Nine-Ring White Tower. In other words, the current effort of the Nine Rings White Tower is actually less than one percent of the value of the paper itself.
But this kind of loss, Luo Sheng gritted his teeth and wanted to eat it. There is no point in simply pursuing fair trade, no matter which world you are, it is difficult to win fairness for yourself when you are weak, so it is most realistic to grow up quickly. Only after you have grown to a certain height can you gain an equal status in trading.
"You don't have to be humble. The recognition of the Nine Rings White Tower is the best proof. Since you have a way to solve the problem on the side of the Bright Sect, then the matter of the Wang Family Mage Group is over. Baron Cook waved his hand and said cheerfully.
Baron Cook is not a person who pays more attention to face than reality, and since Rason has come up with a better solution, Baron Cook will not insist on his proposal for the sake of face, and directly skip this issue.
However, what Luo Sheng showed in this matter made Baron Cook pay a lot of attention to Luo Sheng. This attention is not only because of Luo Sheng's ability to attract the attention of Legendary-level masters, but also because of Luo Sheng's insight of taking the initiative to contact the Nine Rings White Pagoda and use the Nine Rings White Pagoda to resist the pressure of the Bright Sect.
In this world, there are many people who have good things in their hands, but there are not many people who can really use the things in their hands to achieve their own goals. And everyone who can do this is a truly wise person.
"Now that your problem is solved, then you can help me think about the problem of the Cook family. What do you think of the actions of the Judge of Light this time, Luo Sheng?" after adjusting his understanding of Luo Sheng, Baron Cook continued to ask.
"If I'm not mistaken, this winter, the Holy See of Light may be going to kill you, Lord Baron!" Luo Sheng calmly said the facts he had heard.
"What? Luo Sheng, don't talk nonsense!" As soon as Luo Sheng's words came out, Alyssa said with an anxious face. Luo Sheng's words were too scary, and Alyssa was afraid that these words would ruin the good impression that Luo Sheng had just left on Baron Cook, so she subconsciously wanted to stop it.
"Alyssa, don't worry, listen to Luo Sheng explain his reasons. Unlike the anxious Alyssa, Baron Cook waved his hand to stop Alyssa after a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and said very calmly.
"All of the actions that the Judge of Light has done before, in the final analysis, are actually trying to weaken Alyssa's roots and prestige within the Cook family, and they want to plunge Cook Castle into chaos and even division. And if you, Lord Baron, were to live, they would have done nothing to do. And as far as I know, the upper echelons of the Holy See of Light are actually not stupid. Luo Sheng didn't cite any evidence, but calmly analyzed.
In fact, with the information that Rasheng had access to now, it was impossible to deduce the conclusion that the Judge of Light was going to attack Baron Cook. But Luo Sheng can't directly say his true reasons, so he can only use logic to make a reverse argument.
"No wonder Alyssa and Barrett admire you so much, Luo Sheng, you are really sharp!" Baron Cook didn't know that Luo Sheng was making a counter-push when he knew that he would be killed, but he thought that Luo Sheng was quick to think and had his own unique perspective on the problem, so he said in an appreciative tone.
"Father, do you think this is true, is it true that the Holy See of Light is really going to tear up its face with the royal family?" Hearing Baron Cook's words, Alyssa asked in disbelief.
"I don't know if they're going to attack this year, but the Holy See of Light is definitely already preparing to deal with me. Baron Cook stroked Alyssa's hair and said calmly: "This battle is inevitable. ”
"But what about the royal family?" Alyssa still couldn't take it anymore.
"The Cook family is the Cook family, and the royal family is the royal family. The Holy See of Light is only targeting me, and the royal family can only support me secretly at most, and it is impossible to directly fight against the Holy See of Light. Elson is not a sacred calendula after all, and he does not have this ability. Baron Cook said with a sigh.
Although Elson is also one of the powerhouses of the Northlands, his strength is far from being comparable to that of the Holy See of Light. Therefore, in the face of the expansion of the Holy See of Light, Elson could only resist secretly, and did not dare to really tear his face with the Holy See of Light.
"But they're so arrogant, aren't they afraid of another twilight battle?" asked Alyssa, frowning.
Historically, the Holy See of Light has risen in the Dark Calendar after the fall of the Arcane Empire, and then reached its peak at the end of the Dark Calendar and the beginning of the Revival Calendar. At that time, Pope Gregor III was a demigod, leading many legendary cardinal bishops, presbyterians, knights of light, hermitages, and light judges, trying to unify the human kingdoms and establish the kingdom of God on earth.
However, this move was resisted by the human kingdoms led by the Calendula Empire, and even the Church of the Gods, the remnants of the Arcane Empire, and the major alien races. The allied forces eventually defeated the Holy See of Light in the decisive battle of Elanburg, known as the Battle of Twilight.
The War of Twilight not only nullified Gregor III's ambition to establish an earthly kingdom, but also caused the Holy See to retreat from its position as a dominant family. After hundreds of years of recuperation, the wound was healed and the expansion began again.
"Today, unlike in the past, the methods of the Bright Sect are much more obscure, and they are not as high-profile as they were back then. And how can the Twilight War be so easy to fight. Baron Cook said with a sigh.
Drawing on the experience of the defeat of Gregor III, in the new round of expansion, the Holy See of Light basically adopted the method of boiling frogs in warm water. To deal with a country, first spread the influence of the Holy See of Light, and then gradually win over some of the people in power to consolidate its power. When the power has developed to a certain extent, they will start to support the puppets, fight political opponents, and increase their influence little by little, until they finally control the entire country.
This step-by-step, slow erosion is slow, but extremely robust. Moreover, having local forces as puppets will not arouse the hatred of other forces on a large scale.
Coupled with the Battle of Twilight that year, it was actually a lose-lose situation. Although Gregor III was martyred, and most of the cardinals were destroyed, the coalition side was not much easier, and even suffered even more casualties. Therefore, if it does not involve its own core interests, basically no country wants to provoke the Holy See of Light, and as for the continental coalition army, it is even more difficult to form it again.
"So what do we do?" asked Alyssa, a little frustrated.
"Of course it's to fight with them!, can't you still be caught?" Baron Cook said with an impassioned expression: "The Holy See of Light is very strong, but they don't dare to use too strong force, otherwise those legendary guardians will directly intervene." The battle under the simple legend, we have the support of the royal family, are we still afraid that they will not succeed?"
Seeing the arrogant Baron Cook and Alyssa with adoration in his eyes, Luo Sheng shook his head lightly in his heart. With Baron Cook's own strength, he is indeed worthy of this self-confidence, but Baron Cook obviously overestimated the discipline of some people. For the throne and power, the royal family, which was regarded as a solid backing by Baron Cook, betrayed him.
"Luo Sheng, now that you know the situation of the Cook family, are you still willing to join my command and go to Snow Dragon Pass to make meritorious contributions?" Encouraging Alyssa to command, Baron Cook turned to Luo Sheng and asked.
"Of course. My hatred with the Judge of Light has solidified, and they won't let me go even if I don't join them. Luo Sheng replied with a smile: "Moreover, this is a good opportunity to get a knighthood!"
Under normal circumstances, it is basically difficult to have extremely outstanding combat exploits by defending the Snow Dragon Pass. But if the Bright Sect wants to do something, it will inevitably use a big scene, and naturally there will be an opportunity to make great contributions. Moreover, it is much easier to oppose the Holy See of Light and keep Baron Cook to submit a certificate of nomination to the royal family of Elson, and then ask for a fief. After all, the royal family of Elson is happy to have a new nobleman in the country who will fight against the Holy See of Light.
"Haha, I sometimes wonder if you're a young man. Judging by your performance, I'm really worried that Alyssa will be sold by you in the future!" Baron Cook laughed and said, "Okay. We'll talk about these things later, but now let's go to the reception banquet and play the role of your shield first!"
