534 Books War Thinking

Without making trouble for himself, Zhou Shu began to know all forms of nosy, hoping to improve his ability to calculate and conspire.

When he saw the summon come up with a small goldfish and a broken whiskey glass shining in the sun, he thought he had done it and had finally succeeded in doing someone a favor.

This aquarium fish competition has been going on for a long time, and I don't know how the merchants in this city do it, but it really makes everyone in the city fanatical interested in the silly fish in the basin. The citizens took out the same expressions and spirits as they looked at the Louvre, and watched the more than 200 pots of fish on display, which consumed three hours.

During this time, Zhou Shu ran to the toilet twice, and Midali and the city lord were chatting about serious things while drinking wine, and they were also quite kidney fighters.

Zhou Shu continued to listen to the two of them, and their topic had been entangled in the werewolf creature itself. The two of them didn't really want to admit the origin of this kind of thing, and legend has it that such monsters were conjured from the blood of disaster mages. If the same is true of the newly discovered one, then Iron Key City should now consider not being a fish without a fish, but organizing the evacuation of personnel plus the right to apply for additional personnel and local conscription and expansion.

is mostly a person who has multiple clues, and Zhou Shu does not dare to assert the incident now. In fact, in the battle back then, even if there was no Golden Knight and Shireen holding the yield of monsters, the magicians of this world had their own ways to deal with monsters.

According to the Golden Knight, the reason why they fought so quickly back then was because there were other people besides them who were preparing to launch an attack on the Calamity Mage.

At that time, the magicians gathered in large numbers in Rozeraven, and together they opened the magic array and summoned a huge amount of energy, which was very unfriendly to transport the sea water to the sky.

The reason why the Calamity Wizard appeared in such a narrow place as the Kingdom Valley back then, in addition to the Golden Knight leading troops to exterminate it, the magicians also planned to use this valley as a large bowl, boiling boiling water in the sky using the magic of manipulating the temperature of the sun's rays and then tilting it.

It is conceivable that if the Golden Knight failed to deal with the monster back then. Then Rozeraven's strategic magic will turn the entire Kingdom Valley into a big hot pot, and the boiling water vapor will fill the air at an altitude of three or five hundred meters, and the high temperature, water vapor, flood, and lack of oxygen will kill a qiē creature.

As for now, Zhou Shu couldn't be sure if it was the Knight King himself who had become some kind of calamitous knight or something. But the rhythm of the monsters and the valley has not changed, the only thing that has changed is the sea. It's so precious now that it's hard to find. If the sea level recedes by one meter, the coastline will disappear for several kilometers. It is estimated that all the territory of the White Night Country that was swallowed by the sea back then will be spit out, you must know that it is larger than the entire White Moon Country.

Zhou Shu knew that Yaoshi was gone, and he also knew that the magicians of Rozeravin could not use sea water to deal with monsters. If he were the Shadow of Calamity, he would probably have made a comeback at this time. But the question I said before is still there, what the hell is the monster trying to do? The introduction in history class described that guy as a simple evildoer. Like many villains, he inexplicably goes to trouble the protagonist, as if his life is just to let the protagonist pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger to show off.

Is pure evil really exist? Zhou Shu was skeptical about this. He believed that the Shadow of Calamity should have its own purpose to kill the White Moon Country, but he did not commit any crime with the Mori Country Autumn. It was precisely because of this incident that the White Moon Country suspected that the Mori Country had done something. As a result, relations between the two countries have fallen to a freezing point.

"Could it have something to do with the country of the forest?" Zhou Shu could only be sure of one thing at the moment, and that was that the Knight King knew more useful information than himself, and it seemed that the time had come to attack him to collect information.

The judging stage of the aquarium fish competition passed when Zhou Shu was thinking about things, and the champion turned out to be really a summoner. The chairman of the judges used the megaphone of magic props to deafeningly talk about the selection criteria of his group, and how suitable and compatible the contestants used the luxury of glass to hold the little goldfish of the colorful dragon.

After a compliment, the summoner went to the main stand with a stern face to accept the award. The city lord, who didn't even knock the goldfish, smiled and straddled the ribbon of the award-winning symbol on the shoulders of the summoner. Zhou Shu pretended to cough and made some noises, which attracted the idea of summoning things, and he also saw his master, but he didn't know why he appeared here.

After the awards, the summons were as planned. Present the glass and fish to the lord of the castle. The city lord frowned when he heard this, but he could see that he was happy. The two said polite words, and the summoner thought clearly and eloquently praised the city lord, and the two sides stopped being polite.

Zhou Shu could see that the city lord of the family probably had taken a fancy to the glass. The glass of this world is just a new product. The production process and production capacity are very backward, and the things made are not clear and clear. The expression of the castle lord staring at the glass gives people the feeling that when he goes home with his front foot, he will splash the little goldfish into the flower pot with his back foot, and secretly hide the cup.

The feedback from the city lord who had made the summon look forward to it did not appear, and the city lord just thanked him for a few words and it was over. Then Midali and Zhou Shu and their party were also invited away, and the city lord began to be polite with the other nobles, and they seemed to have a ball and dinner tonight.

"一qiē顺lì!"

On the way back, Nati expressed her excitement, she had always been like this, and Zhou Shu felt more and more like an energetic Pomeranian.

Midali and the Knight of the Archers put on the same worried face, looking like they were about to die. The celebration is rather boring, but that's not a problem, the problem is that the werewolf thing is completely unresolved. Midali now has a plan to make a detour to the south. According to the city lord, he has already reported the situation to the White Moon City side, and by the way, he has applied for an increase. As long as Wang Cheng's side believes this statement and mobilizes more than a dozen legions withdrawn from the front line of the defeated army city in a minute, it may not be too late for the Eagle Killer to run again.

"Alas, it's going to take another half a month to go around, and I don't know how much trouble I'm going to encounter......" Midali sighed on the way.

Zhou Shu had already thought about it, and when the Gray Witch came tomorrow with the Twelve-armed Girl, she would bite the two captives into vampires, and then lend Natty and the Twelve-armed Girl to Midali as guards. As for the archer, Zhou Shu thought about taking it with him. While vampire minions are not as useful as summons, and commanding too much will make them rebel, it's still good to use them as thugs.

As for the reason why the archer chose not Nati, it is also very simple. It's not that Zhou Shu doesn't like Nati's neuropathy, but he still has a good impression of this lively guy. He mainly thinks about the possibility of Ban Shi'er attacking after he leaves, and it is said that Nati and Ban Shi'er are very good friends, if she is there. Maybe it can solve the four-series month-level chick.

Zhou Shu sneaked to the outskirts of the city with the three girls, and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask about the status of the summons. He didn't shy away from it, grabbed a cloak in his hand, and then recalled the summon again, and the bare-ass Poe appeared in front of the four.

"You really look like a calamity mage!" said something that could easily cause misunderstanding, but the other two looked stern and didn't say anything.

Zhou Shu handed the robe to the summoner and asked in Chinese: "How about it, I saw today that you went to participate in the competition by yourself, which means that you don't think that vendor is worthy of a good girl's life?"

"Yes. My master. Also, I named myself Edgar Allan Poe. ”

"Edgar Allan Poe?" Zhou Shu said that he knew about this guy, but mainly because there was an award called the 'Edgar Allan Poe Award', and Chandler had won the best of its best. After a little glance at the person in front of me, 'it looks like Edgar Allan Poe's brain.' ’

After hearing Poe's answer. Zhou Shu naturally asked how the peddler was not worthy of being a good husband. What he heard from the summon was, "That man is a voyeur, and every day he has to stand under the balcony of the girl he has taken a fancy to, and secretly spy on him for more than an hour." I watched it for three days, and it was all the same. ”

The summon said it reasonably, but Zhou Shu asked with a blank face. "And then? What else?"

"It's gone. Poe replied with the same confidence.

Master Zhou suddenly didn't understand, "Damn, that's it?!, he is a peddler who is suddenly in love, and there is nothing wrong with secretly looking at his crush, my God." ”

He suddenly remembered the time when he and Liu Xijue liked each other, and occasionally when he was depressed. I would also look at the windows of her house.

Edgar Allan Poe was honest as a summoner, and when he saw that his master reacted so much, he quickly thought about his own behavior, and then hesitated: "Master, maybe it's because I like that girl too." This sentiment made me subjectively disgusted with the peddler, and it was possible that the judgment of the guide was biased. ”

"Can this still be the case!?" Zhou Shu's eyes widened when he heard this, and he couldn't believe it, but he quickly thought of his own birds and insect summons with insufficient intelligence, strictly speaking, people also have times when they are not intelligent. "Damn, it's a thousand calculations!"

Zhou Shu's gritted teeth on the side of the road were seen by the three girls, who couldn't understand what the guy was muttering in strange language. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the man in the robe to disappear, leaving only a robe that had fallen to the ground. Zhou Shu didn't bother to pick it up, and walked forward with the team with an unhappy face.

"What's wrong with you?" the eventful Nati slipped in front of Zhou Shu and looked into his eyes curiously, trying to read his love from it.

"It's nothing, annoying, go cool!"

"Eh, why are you so annoying, I can't ask. "Nati is also too lazy to deal with this kind of person who kills herself, and she decisively refuses to kill him.

However, if you don't return to a bird, Zhou Shu is not a person who is suitable for tantrums. Every time he tried to kill someone, there was bound to be a terrible trouble that would disrupt his plans.

On the return trip, Midali refused the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion and chose to wander back, mainly to distract herself, but this purpose was not achieved. The four of them were thinking about their own affairs, strolling around, and suddenly saw Zhou Shu stop with a gloomy face.

Midali looked wary and said, "You don't have any bad news to announce, do you?"

Zhou Shu smiled bitterly, and asked Chao Nati, who had some stiff facial muscles, "Is your friend named Ban Shi'er a girl with short haircut and big eyes?"

The sick princess was in her own room in her own tower of the White Moon Castle, and she was in a daze with a text. This thing was sent by the prime minister, without him, it is the recent physical condition of the knight king.

Two days ago, the doctors in the royal court found that the Knight King's health had deteriorated rapidly, and his condition was quite serious. At this moment, the Knight King had fallen into a coma.

Princess Nalolo is not a ruthless person, although when she was with Zhou Shu before, she always talked about taking over the throne and letting Lao Wang take care of the elderly. But now that she really has to face a critically ill adoptive father, her feelings are still very complicated.

Ten minutes later, the members of the council will meet in the parliament to inquire about the situation of the knight king's minister of life. Whether you can meet with your relatives and convey your will. The main question is whether the Knight King is still awake.

The sick princess is sad and sad, but intellectually she still hopes that this guy will die, and it is better to die without saying a word, so that she who has the first inheritance will become the queen, and many things will not be as troublesome as now.

Some people will have a sense of contempt for this kind of rational thinking because of family affection, but the sick princess will not. On the contrary, the sick princess thinks that those who are self-loathing because they want to show their true feelings. It's just immature, but she also admits that maturity isn't necessarily a good thing.

Dropping the report in her hand, she strolled along the wide corridor, seven or eight meters above her head. Wandering in the direction of the council chamber.

As a royal family, she is a minute late every time she comes out, as a reminder to others that she is with you. No one would say anything about the delay of the minute, and they knew why they were a minute late every time, unless someone wanted to show their hostility to the sick princess.

Today. The sick princess's tardiness still didn't cause a lot of conversation, and no one seemed ready to get along with her. She wished no one bothered her, but that wasn't likely.

When the prime minister saw the princess come in, he took the lead in standing up and bowing to her. This is a ritual that does not usually exist, and the sick princess was surprised when she saw this situation. Soon. She reacted, opened her eyes, and looked incredulously at the Minister of Life of the Knight King who was standing in the corner, without a seat.

The minister felt the gaze and nodded with an embarrassed expression.

Originally. The knight king has already passed away, and the so-called reports that the sick princess got are just for the sake of confusing the spies of the enemy country who may have zài.

The state of the king's health could not have been revealed to outsiders, and the official reports on such matters in paper form were no less credible. Those who have the right to know this news in the kingdom are only those of the royal council.

The purpose of tonight's impromptu meeting is already obvious, and the council is to discuss whether to announce the death of the Knight King according to the normal process.

Although the power of the royal council is large and broad, and it can manage almost everything, except for weddings and funerals, these are the work of those people in the Ministry of Rites and Education. However, what kind of course of action should be taken after the king hangs up needs to be decided by the council.

The aftermath of the king's death is definitely one of the most complicated and troublesome events in a country, without one. First of all, someone needs to confirm whether the king really died a normal death, and whether there is a possibility that he will kill him.

It takes a considerable amount of time to verify this, and the first task of the council arises.

After the prime minister had finished mourning for the sick princess, he turned his face up again. "Well, although none of you here have participated in the discussion of this kind of thing, fortunately, the wisdom of our White Moon King's Court Council for hundreds of years has been completely passed down. The prime minister patted a large thick book on the table in front of him and said, "We now need to appoint a reliable person to examine our king's body and find out the cause of death." Although the life of the Minister of Life of the King died of disease, it is always necessary to examine it carefully. ”

The sick princess sat down in a complicated mood when the prime minister said this, and she wanted to show some sad and sad expressions, so that people could seize the truth and say that she was cold. When she tried to show off her acting skills, she was surprised to find that she had inadvertently turned into a sad appearance, which was not because she was skilled in acting, but because she was showing her true feelings, which surprised her.

The Prime Minister and several nobles mentioned the names of several trusted magicians and asked them to carry out the task of examining the Knight King's body. There are some risks associated with this work, and if the results of the inspection are later overturned, the inspectors will be arrested and hanged in front of the city gates. The law stipulates this, in fact, it is just to form a deterrent, so that the people who do this work are honest and don't play tricks.

After the discussion of the council got to the point, the prime minister, who was the presiding officer of the meeting, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Now, it's our turn to test us." Let's deliberate whether to lie to the people and whether to announce the king's death. ”

The news of the king's death is a very important piece of information. If it had been during the war, the king's death would probably have been concealed until three or five years after the arrival of peacetime, otherwise it would have caused instability in the hearts of the people and the army. In fact, this kind of thing is secondary, and the biggest trouble with the king's death is that it may excite the enemy country, so that the war that should have ended early can be continued by this excitement.

Although peace is maintained with the country of Mori now, peace has just arrived, and the mindset of everyone who is still in a time of war has not yet changed, and everything is considered with war as the first starting point.

If the death of the Knight King is announced at this time, it is very likely that the Mori no Kuni will use this to incite its people to start another war with all their might. The previous peace was not made, but the peace between the two countries, so the military strength of the two sides was relatively complete, or very complete, and it was no problem to start a war anytime and anywhere.

If the Mori no Kuni really uses this news to seek a response, it may not be possible for the White Moon Country to face the Mori no Kuni, which is even more powerful than before.
