Book 555 Departure for North America
Due to the great support of the council for the sick princess's idea of attacking monsters with the water of Yinghe Town, the operation officially began ten days later.
They moved very quickly, and they were also stimulated by the miserable appearance of Iron Key City, which is why they worked so hard.
The magicians have succeeded in spilling the foul-smelling lake water into the valley mountains, and as for the outcome of the battle, whether they can destroy all the monsters, it is up to Princess Fuhu and the two knights of the kingdom to find out.
After another week's work, Princess Fuhu returned to Baiyue Country and saw Zhou Shu, who had not been seen for a long time, in the castle.
"Yo, second sister!" Zhou Shu stood with the sick princess very arrogantly, and greeted Princess Fuhu, who had just run all the way back from the valley and mountain range.
Although Princess Fuhu and Zhou Shu were the first to meet, she didn't like this guy very much, and when she saw him poking her eldest sister again, she only replied with one word, "Hmph!" also said that she was very unhappy.
Princess Fuhu has not been happy for more than half a month, she is the most loyal of the seven princesses to the Knight King, after knowing that the Knight King secretly withheld the letter of help from the Valley Mountains, she suffered the first collapse of faith in her life. Fortunately, there has been something busy for her recently, and she was so busy that she came out of the blow.
People are sometimes afraid of idleness, and when they are idle, all problems will follow, but they can maintain their health and vitality for a long time under pressure.
Zhou Shu has not yet told Princess Fuhu that the Knight King was possessed by the shadow of disaster, after all, this is just speculation, if you tell her when there is no evidence, Princess Fuhu will probably go crazy.
Therefore, it is likely that the Knight King adopted his children in order to find a new ** thing, and no one sued the second highness.
About the death of the Knight King. The council got a more unified idea, that is, to announce it to the public. The cause of the king's death was old age, and it was also forcible to arrange a good death for the legendary king.
The royal blood of the White Moon Kingdom has long been severed, and the last person to have pure Flender bloodline is the powerful woman who married the Knight King and gave up the throne.
Not many people remember the original surname of the knight king, and the people of this country are almost forgetting that their king is actually rich.
Zhou Shu also learned this morning that the news of the Knight King's death was about to be made public. This means that His Royal Highness the Princess is about to become the Queen.
In terms of successors, the sick princess won the position without the slightest hindrance. Originally, the nobles of the White Moon Kingdom were very difficult to express their stance on this kind of matter, thinking that the sick princess had the undoubted right of inheritance in law, and the rest was just that the major lords came to swear allegiance. Originally, the sick princess thought that this oath stage would be delayed for a long time, but it turned out to be surprisingly fast, and the princes from all walks of life were also very quick to express their support.
The sick princess didn't know why things were going so smoothly, and no half of them came out to stir up the situation, as if there had never been any previous monitoring and opposition.
Zhou Shu is no better than the Knight King, and he does not have as strong military exploits as support. Even if you marry a sick princess, you can't become a king. The poor woman who had given up the throne soon died, and the people had always regarded the knight king as a moral model. Now that several princesses know the truth about the Knight King, they can't help but wonder if the princess, the queen who gave up the throne, really died of illness.
The White Moon Royal Court will be very busy in the next month, first holding a state funeral, the whole country will mean it, and then it will be like the crowning of the queen. Together, it takes about a month to prepare.
During this time, Zhou Shu didn't want to stay idle on the side of White Moon City. He has a very important task to do, and a trip that has to be taken awaits him.
Early in the morning, the Tiger Princess rushed back from a business trip. Other guests in the Sick Princess's parlor were Nattie and Ban Shi'er, and their two friends, the Knight Archer, were already standing behind the Sick Princess.
Princess Fuhu was also shocked when she saw Ban Shi'er, "I heard that your martial arts level is a little higher than mine, right, fortunately, I'm Aelita Flender." â
When Ban Shi'er saw this tall princess, she bowed down in fear. "Her Highness Alrita." â
At this time, Ban Shi'er was wearing a one-shoulder cape, covering her left arm, which was only half a small part. Recently, the weather in the White Moon Country has cooled down, and the typical European climate is typical, and the people on the street are much thicker.
Princess Fuhu heard about Ban Shi'er's arm being torn off by a monster, but she still respected those who were stronger than her. Before, she only knew that the Knight King was a strong man. Then he met the Golden Knight, and now although Ban Shi'er has lost his habitual hand, he still crushes Princess Fuhu in rank.
In the new journey that Zhou Shu is about to be forced to embark, Ban Shi'er and Nati will be companions, and by the way, there is also a gray witch. A few of them are about to go to the Americas of this world to inquire about the situation and see if there is any possibility of the White Moon Country forces inserting over there.
Although Ban Shi'er did not swear allegiance to the sick princess, she was still willing to do this kind of task related to the fate of the White Moon Kingdom. Although Zhou Shu had the intention of conquering the American world, he could only use the excuse that "we have found a new country beyond the ocean, and we need to contact that side to determine whether they will become the embedded enemies of the country".
Nati and Ban Shi'er were very well nurtured by patriotism, and when they heard about this kind of thing, they decided to be Zhou Shu's bodyguards and follow him on a trip.
Master Zhou just went to fight an outpost this time, and he didn't plan to do any substantive work of invasion and conquest, in fact, he himself was completely incompetent at this, and he couldn't do it.
What he needs to do is to understand the customs of that world as much as possible, and try to become 'the first person in Baiyue Country to open his eyes to the world', at least don't make the joke that 'foreigners can't get rid of it if they don't drink tea'.
The Grey Witch as a means of transportation is the work of the Sun Egg in the First World. The combat power of the Sun Egg Watch does not seem to be worse than that of the second-rate witch of the Gray Witch, but the witch has a lot of interesting little things that can be used when performing this kind of work.
In the past, when Zhou Shu learned the lingua franca, he relied on the real-time translation brought to him by 'Sheng', and he learned the language of this world very quickly.
In fact, language is a thing that becomes more simplified the more it is used, and of course it refers to everyday communication. Writing and literature are not included. As a language spoken by at least seven or eight billion people, there are only a few sentence patterns, similar to English. Zhou Shu casually enriched his vocabulary back then, and he was already able to communicate with people in this world preliminarily, and now he can talk to the princess of his family who uses the lingua franca**.
This time to the Americas, language will no longer be an issue. The magician has magic props that can provide translation, and the gray witch once used this thing to eavesdrop on Zhou Shu and Yu Feiniao speaking in Chinese.
In the Eighth World, there are three high-level civilizations on the Great Road: Europa in the West, Asia in the East, and America in the East. The reason why Zhou Shu went to the Americas first was mainly because of the proximity.
The reason why it is said to be close refers to the fact that it is easier for the soldiers of the White Moon Country to enter the Americas. Just find the sea that has run away without a shadow, and then build a ship and go to sea. As for the Eastern world, there is not even a Silk Road now. It was really difficult for the infantry to go over, so it was used by Zhou Shu as **oss to stay in the last strategy
Zhou Shu is not the person in charge of the plan for this operation, the person in charge is the Gray Witch and Aleusha, and the magicians behind them.
Although the wizarding world has handed over the ownership of the Eighth World to the Rasputin family of Aleusha for fifty years, they are not comfortable and bold enough to let Aleusha fool around. The magical nobles of the wizarding world bought the 'Conquest Stock' in the hands of Aleusha in the form of investment, and when the conquest was completed, the proceeds were divided equally.
Conquest Stocks aren't really in the form of cash or magic potions, but weapons, items, and strategic information.
In recent years, a fourth industry has emerged in the United States, in addition to agriculture, manufacturing, and services. That is, the legendary wisdom industry. This is a relatively difficult industry to explain, and there is a term for 'manufacturing services' in China. But the coverage is not complete.
This manufacturing service industry will provide the most comprehensive production services to the manufacturing company, optimize the production process and integrate the upstream and downstream enterprises for the manufacturing company, which requires their wisdom and connections.
The real smart industry can provide more, if their boss is a mine, it is possible for the company to contact a scientific research unit to help the mine manufacture new mining machinery. It is a storage zĂ i similar to the house of everything.
Aleusha has already been approached by many magical nobles, and this was done when they were busy working on the side of the Two Realms Gate before. These people want to help Aleusha as a smart business. In exchange for favors, when the Rasputins became famous in the Eighth World, they also wanted to mix in a territory with a population of 30 to 50 million and absorb the spiritual power of the people under their rule.
Aleusha had agreed to help with these helps, in fact, if she was to take a second-rate witch to conquer a world by herself. That's a real joke. Now it is just a Baiyue Kingdom, and there are endless troubles to deal with, and it is also on the premise that Zhou Shu has a relationship with the first princess.
Now the two witches hope that Zhou Shu can also develop a few princesses in that place every week, and make some connections out, if possible, they hope that Zhou Shu will stop playing with innocence like this, and can go on it as soon as possible, just like the young lady who dealt with the living human family.
Zhou Shu is expected to go on this business trip for half a month, and he doesn't want to miss the coronation of the sick princess a month later.
The sick princess is very much in favor of Zhou Shu going outside, she has always hoped that Zhou Shu can become her knight king, but now she knows that the knight king is not a good thing.
She hoped that Zhou Shu would be able to return to the White Moon Kingdom with his monstrous exploits, so that she could announce to the people of the whole country that this man who had successfully occupied a civilization overseas was your king.
Women always want to give their best when they like someone, which is a common problem of girls, and the sick princess is no exception. This common problem makes many people think that women in love are brainless, and in the end, they become brainless, which completely disappoints the hearts of girls.
The most capable of the sick princess is the country of Baiyue Kingdom. Compared to high school girls who can only give their lover their own body, a country in a land of abundance is probably slightly more attractive. Now the person who most hopes that Zhou Shu can do something in the Americas is not Aleusha, but the sick princess.
Zhou Shu has been idle for half a month, and now he finally got the exact news of the valley mountain range.
Princess Fuhu chatted casually with Ban Shi'er, and then agreed to go to the room later, and Duke Fuhu asked Ban Shi'er to invite her. The latter gladly complied. Compared with the extravagant princess who used expensive glass as a window, Princess Fuhu, who has a military temperament, is more attractive to Ban Shi'er, who has a broken arm.
After this, Princess Fuhu announced the results of her investigation with two knights of the kingdom in the valley mountains.
In the five days after the poisonous rain, Princess Fuhu only led her army to observe the valley and kill some monsters that might escape. In fact, there hasn't been any life out of the valley for five days, and if anything, it's just flying insects.
Princess Fuhu, who was guarding the door, was very worried that she would encounter some dragged broken body. The presence of poisonous humans, if there really is, proves that there are survivors in the valley, and their own false reports have taken their lives.
Judging from the results, everything is good, the monsters did not escape, and neither did the humans. On the sixth day, Princess Fuhu tried to enter the valley. During these five days, the lush vegetation of the valley turned yellow, but the poisonous air caused by a poisonous rain was purified by the plants and the land, and there was nothing to do with the movement of people in the valley.
Princess Fuhu spent a day running half of her hometown. Along the way, she saw monster corpses, these corpses did not even decompose, she did not understand bacteria and did not know what the microcosm was, and she also regarded this phenomenon as a bad omen. After confirming that no monster seemed to survive, she returned to the White Moon Country in a hurry, and now she was very sleepy and tired.
In the past half a month, the Shadow of Calamity and the Fir Princess have not moved, and the same is true of the Forest Country.
The sick princess was not very afraid of them. Now the gunpowder weapon provided by Zhou Shu is being developed, which is quite smooth. Although there has been little progress in gunpowder and explosives. But the magicians have found an alternative, and the world already has its first bomb-throwing.
Fifty years ago, the calamity mages were able to cause disasters because the human army was not strong enough to fight, and tens of thousands of monsters swept through dozens of legions, defeating the human race one after another, and they could only rely on a few elites gathered in one place to fight them.
Most of the armies back then didn't have the courage of the current army and were willing to fight monsters. They knew that those monsters were nothing more than summoned from the blood of a Calamity Mage. And they are living humans who have grown up little by little, have families and memories, and they feel that it is very uneconomical to exchange their lives for the lives of that kind of monsters.
After the disaster of that year, Bai Yueguo also learned from the pain and played a patriotic education for 50 years, and Ban Shi'er is one of the outstanding achievements of this education. The current hatred of the people of the White Moon Kingdom for monsters has reached a very exaggerated level. If there are monsters to kill, even if there is a valley where there is no longer any vegetation in the land that is full of poison, they are willing to burrow into it and kill it.
In addition to this willingness to fight, the emergence of thermal weapons has also increased the weight of human strength. If the monster tide of fifty years ago were to come again, the sick princess unilaterally thought that her army might not lose.
However, having said that, since it is already known that the shadow of the disaster is possessed by the fir princess this time, it is possible that the White Moon Country is facing the combined forces of the Forest Country and the monsters. Maybe at some point, these two groups will join forces to kill the general.
The Forest Country also has a hot weapon in hand, and it is also the object of hatred of the people of the White Moon Country. If this is fought, the scale of the war will be unprecedented.
When the sick princess first came to the first world, Zhou Shu told her about the First World War and showed her a documentary. At that time, it was because of the widespread use of machine guns that the number of casualties jumped to an extremely exaggerated number. In the end, everyone was scared, and everyone didn't start to kill people, but to dig trenches, and then the tanks initially appeared and shined.
The sick princess knew that if a war of that scale appeared in the White Moon Country, it would be the biggest disaster in the country. Therefore, the purpose of Zhou Shu's business trip this time is just to explore the truth, Bai Yueguo wants to preside over the overall situation in the country, keep Alyusha by his side as a bodyguard, and make every effort to prepare for the war and prepare for the settlement of the forest country. If necessary and conditions permit, the sick princess will let Aleusha play the beheading plan and destroy the royal family of the forest.
It's true that the outside must first be inside, but it's a pity that the White Moon Kingdom is not stable enough now, if the queen tears up the peace treaty and starts a war with the neighboring countries as soon as she is crowned, although the people will support it at first, but when they eat the bitter fruits of the war, they will definitely turn around and complain about the royal family. This chaos will only get more and more chaotic, and static braking is the only way.
Master Zhou had a meal with the sick princess at noon, and left the castle after the meal. Ban Shi'er and Princess Fuhu didn't know what to do, and in the opinion of Nati, who was well-fed and drunk, she should be back very late today.
Zhou Shu led Nati, and the two of them wandered around the street, thinking about what they should bring with them on a business trip. He misses the energy drinks and high-calorie foods very much now, but the calories lost by the fire with nuts are not enough, and he is tired of eating those dry things and wants to change the taste.
Nati was also wondering what the world would be like overseas, and what clothes she would wear to come into contact with civilizations she had never seen before. In terms of weapons and equipment, Nati also has some needs, and since she doesn't know the climate there, she must bring a few clothes with her.
The two hit it off and decided to go around the business district and find what they wanted. (To be continued......)
