However, after thinking about it, the Duke of Norrington agreed to the request of the Varu Empire. After all, if he doesn't agree, with his current prestige and strength, he is far from being the opponent of Grand Duke Vratton, and he has nothing to lose anyway, so it is better to give it a go.www.biquge.info If the Varu Empire can really help him ascend to the throne, it is not impossible to pay some when the time comes.

In this way, the Duke of Norrington immediately pulled back a game with the open support of the Waru Empire, at least in terms of military strength, he had the confidence to compete in the face of the Grand Duke of Vraton, and the Duke of Norrington usually had a good reputation in the Kingdom of Lorraine, and immediately became a favorite to win the throne.

However, although the intervention of the Varu Empire made the battle for the throne even more intense, it was not good news for Leo.

"I can't imagine that Gavin XIII has expanded his ambitions to the kingdom of Lorraine, and it seems that if we want to swallow Lorraine, we will probably have to work a little harder!" Leo said to himself, frowning slightly.

Behind him, Sidney, dressed in his usual home clothes, said while making tea for him: "What about the Varu Empire? It has been rotting for so long, I'm afraid the Varu people may not be able to fight, and we don't need to be afraid of them at all!"

"No, you don't know!" the handsome figure in front of the windowsill suddenly turned around, and Leo looked at Sidney and said in a deep voice, "I know Gavin XIII, he is a very intelligent man, and he is good at forbearance. The fact that he dared to meddle in Lorraine's internal strife showed that he was ready for war. I didn't expect him to integrate the distribution of power within the Varu Empire so quickly, it seems that I still underestimate him!"

"I heard that you used to have a bad relationship with the southern Grand Duke of the Varu Empire, and you have dealt with both the Grizzly Legion and the Blue Wolf Legion, so you should know the military strength of the Varu Empire very well!"

Leo nodded when he heard this: "Yes, the highest and most elite combat power of the Varu Empire is the four major legions, but because the four major legions need to guard the various frontiers of the Varu Empire, even if Gavin XIII wants to send troops, he can only mobilize two legions at most, after all, the logistics burden is a big problem, and this is not a local battle in the territory of Varu, and it is probably the limit of the Varu Empire to dispatch two legions at one time." ”

"But the problem is that we are no longer just a small Pritz City, and the newly established province also needs to be guarded by a legion, and Gao Xianzhi and his Tang Legion can't leave easily. That Ao Bai and the Eight Banners Legion......" Speaking of this, Leo smiled bitterly and did not continue. However, Sidney also understood what he was trying to say, after all, the discipline and customs of the Eight Banners were really a big problem.

"Leonidas and his heavily armed legions are fine, but I just don't know if they will be able to handle this mission, after all, this time they will not only have to fight against the Varu Empire, but also those magicians from the Kingdom of Lorraine. ”

As soon as Leo's words fell, a loud voice shouted from outside the office, "No problem!

Without knocking on the door, Leonidas strode in and said to Leo without any surprise: "There is absolutely no problem in handing it over to us Spartans, no matter what kind of army of the Varu Empire or some magician of Lorraine, as long as it is handed over to us, it will definitely be no problem." ”

Leo rolled his eyes at Leonidas, who was anxious to fight, and after a long time of contact, he would find that this guy was not at all as taciturn as an ordinary Spartan warrior, but rather very noisy, as if he was in a hurry to finish his life's words.

"Don't worry, it's not time for us to participate. Now that the battle for the throne has just begun, Norrington and Fraton have not yet entered the white heat, so let them bite each other first. When they have tossed the kingdom of Lorraine and the people have lost their patience and support, it will be the best time for us to end. ”

Sidney nodded his head in this way, and Leo matured in the midst of a series of events, and his passion was no longer a reason to govern his actions, and he was thinking about the overall situation of the whole of Pritz, rather than only about a success, failure, and happiness.

In this way, Leo, who won thousands of miles away, fascinated Sidney, especially the strong confidence in Leo's words, which made Sidney's beautiful eyes frequently burst out with surprises, after all, this is the man he chose, he has achieved something or can be alone, Sidney is happy for him from the bottom of his heart.

"Young Master, the Bright Sect has sent an envoy who wants to meet you. In addition......" Feng Xifan walked into Leo's office, didn't look at anyone else, went straight to the desk, leaned over and saluted, and said to Leo.

"Master Feng, it's okay, it's all your own people here, you just have to say anything directly!" Leo thought that Feng Xifan was afraid of Leonidas' presence, and some things were not easy to say, so he specially explained.

However, what Leo never imagined was that the person Feng Xifan wanted to guard against was not Leonidas, but Sidney.

"In addition, the dark mages I saw last time at the Lorraine Palace have also come to the Grand Duke's Mansion to meet with you. Feng Xifan said with some hesitation, he himself was not sure what this Dark Council was trying to do.

"Hah! It was reached at the same time as the messenger of the Church of Light, and it seems that the people of this dark council are not all brainless. Leo snorted lightly, in his opinion, the lower the posture of the Dark Council, the better, so that it would be easier for him to cooperate with the Dark Council is the dominant position.

Yes, Leo was planning to form an alliance with the Dark Council against the Church of Light. Through the Church of Light and the heresy crusade, Leo was completely disappointed and dead set on the Church of Light, these short-sighted guys only cared about the little interests in front of them, and even openly tore up the agreement, which was really not a good partner.

Although Leo didn't know much about the Dark Council, just from the fact that the Dark Council had been able to deal with the Church of Light for so many years, it was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Moreover, the dark mages brought out by Master Edwin have a relatively high level of magic, and even according to Master Merlin, the minimum level of those magicians is enough to teach at the Royal School of Magic of Lorraine.

Since there is such an underground magic force, it is naturally useless for Leo not to use it, and he only needs to pay some insignificant price in exchange for a powerful helper and alliance, so why not?
