Chapter 110: The Duchy of Heidler
After helping Miss Courier divinate the whereabouts of various parts of her body, Crane briefly examined the extraordinary properties of the puppet killed by Mr. Azik's projection, and then picked up the magical items he had harvested from the other party.
Titled "Spencer the Abomination", this bow-tie-like item is a result of the extraordinary properties of the "Conspirator", and can only be considered a 'Level 2' seal.
But it can keep him sane when the "puppet" Spencer indulges his desires and falls into madness, and even "instinctively" uses his madness to let the enemy who thinks he has found a weak point fall into the "trap".
That's why I've always been taken by that "puppet.....
As for its negative effect, it becomes extremely "abominable" when used, making it a prime target for enemies.
Speaking of which, the "puppet" always uses this "negative effect" to create traps to inflict heavy damage on the enemy...... But this time, he met the projection of Mr. Azik....
Thinking of this, Klein pretended to be silent for a second, and then decided the future fate of this "odious Spencer":
"Daniz has been trying to help me spread the word about Gelman's deeds, and he has managed the 'Poseidon' church well, so it's time to give some rewards..... Well, after Mr. 'Fool' gave him the trick, his 'Fireman' potion should have been digested, and this item should be used as his promotion material."
As his thoughts turned, Klein pulled out the historical projection of the "No Dark Cross" and slammed it into "The Abominable Spencer".
While waiting, he casually clicked on the "Crimson Star" of Lady Martha, who had become a fanatic believer in the "Fools" in the Abrahamic family.
.....
Fenerport, Abraham Territory, Seville.
Lady Martha, who was reading a knight's book in her rocking chair, suddenly stood up and reverently recited something.
After the gray fog in front of her disappeared, she took a breath and stretched out her right hand to drag Gelman Sparrow out of the air in front of her. - The demigod abilities she "recorded" are all images of Gelman in the pores of history.
Crane glanced at her, nodded politely, and then "teleported" out of the house and into an empty room in a hotel.
Without wasting any time, Klein immediately took out the adventurer's harmonica, brought it to his lips, and blew it.
When Miss Courier stepped out of the void, Klein picked up the key points and repeated the results of his divination, and finally asked, "Do you need my help?"
He was referring to the "right hand" of Lady Helen and the "entrails" in the hands of several other members of the "Rose School". Renette Tinicole's four blonde red-eyed heads shook at the same time, and said in turn:
"For the time being..... "No need ....." When needed..... "Tell you..." Klein let out a silent sigh, nodded and continued to ask:
"What about the 'Silent Disciple' trait?"
"Need..... Purify me ..... "It's fine." Renette Tinicol replied one after the other.
"Good!" Crane bowed slightly, then performed a ritual of requesting a grant, bringing the trait from the gray mist to reality.
Renette Tinicol raised one of the blonde red-eyed heads, opened his mouth, and sucked the trait away, and then before leaving, he said solemnly:
"Bill..... "Record...."1351...year" "5....." Month.. Gelman...."Sparrow ....." "Write-off..... Thousand.....「 Coins." After saying that, His figure was transparent and returned to the spirit realm.
Klein froze for two seconds, then shook his head helplessly, pulled out the "Endless Book of Teleportation", and after several transfers, "teleported" to the residence of Byam "Divine Messenger" Daniz.
- Although the "Star Staff" or the "Secret Sage" are more effective in teleportation, Klein is worried that Lady Martha Abraham will not be able to hold on, so he has no choice.
Byam, inside a small and inconspicuous building
。
After listening to the reports of the leaders of the rebel army on the specific matters of the secret subsidies of Intis, Fersak, Fenerport and other countries, Daniz tried his best to fool around, and finally made them dispel the idea of immediately cooperating with the navies of other countries and colluding with other countries to seize Byam.
As an Intius, a famous pirate and treasure hunter, he actually has no mental burden to attack the Colony of Rune, and has no hesitation or hesitation.
Of course, he also doesn't have a strong sense of belonging to the Republic of Intis, and even prefers to target Intis merchants when he occasionally works part-time as a pirate, because they carry more valuable luxuries with them.
But even someone like him, who has not read a single military book, can see that now is not a good time to start an incident.
Not to mention their strength, the "Storm Church" can hold it down with one hand, even if it succeeds by luck, why should the weak resistance let Fersak or Fenerport fulfill their promise and occupy Byam?
When the time comes, it's just a change of colonizer on the head, it's pointless, or even worse....
Sighing, Daniz was just about to get up and go back to the bedroom to lie down for a while, when he suddenly saw an extra person in the conference room, a terrible guy who almost made him jump - Gelman Sparrow.
"Good acting." Gelman nodded his head, acknowledging Daniz's handling of the role of the "Divine Messenger" at the beginning. Far worse than me, of course...... It seems that he learned a lot during his time with me. Klein added inwardly with "relief."
Gelman praised me? Shit! Why am I still so happy?! Daniz cursed himself, looked at Gelman, and asked suspiciously, "I remember the last time I sacrificed food, there were utensils .....
I take back what I just said.... Crane was silent for a few seconds, then directly took out the extraordinary characteristics of the "Conspirator" that had been precipitated from the magical item, and said indifferently, "This is the reward that Mr. 'Fool' has given you."
Daniz's eyes lit up after receiving the extraordinary characteristics, and now he already knew what it was, so he immediately thanked the "fool" quite "religiously":
「.... Praise you for your generosity, Mr. Fool."
Seeing him accept it, Klein sensed that Lady Martha was about to lose it, so he decisively disconnected from the projection and made him disappear into thin air.
"That's it..... Gelman was just here to give me a reward? Didn't you let me learn what he called "politeness?" Seeing this, Daniz's face showed surprise, but then he reacted and scolded himself again.
.....
Stationed at the camp of the Rune garrison in the northern part of the Caraston area, Miss Justice's second brother, Alfred Hall, put down the telegram sent from home and fell into deep thought.
His adjutant Pagani was not as calm as the chief officer, and complained directly:
"What the hell are those Beckland guys thinking? Unexpectedly, the entire territory north of Karaston that we have worked so hard to build will be handed over to that new force that believes in evil gods?
"Oh, by the way, they have now founded a state, what is the name of the 'Duchy of Heideler', it is said that it is still the name given by the evil god they believe in, the 'God of War and Destruction' himself, and the so-called high priest also calls himself Archduke Ornia Heideler...
"When did the kingdom degenerate enough to form friendship with such an indigenous nation?"
He cursed for nearly three minutes before stopping.
Only then did Alfred look at him and smile, "Done venting?"
"Alfred, aren't you angry? While the key to the previous battle was the 'Invisible Fear' sent by the Empress, and the demigods reinforced by the 'Storm Church' and the 'Steam Church', our lads were not without sacrifices..... Are you willing to give up the territory you have just acquired?" Pugani snorted.
He still thinks that the elven "Disaster Priest" and the demigod mechanical clone of "Morning Star City" are the support of the two major churches..... In other words, even if the two major churches take the initiative to clarify, not many people will believe it.
「
Of course not..... But if His Excellency Hugh Dilcha leaves the Southern Continent, even if we don't withdraw our troops, will you be able to hold on to the territory you occupy?
"And this newly-born so-called 'Duchy of Heidler' is quite friendly to us people in the Northern Continent, unlike other indigenous warlords in the Southern Continent who hate us, and in general, giving up part of the territory in exchange for their friendship is beneficial to the current kingdom.
"You may not know that Intis and Fenerport have also handed over some of the occupied areas to the 'Duchy of Heidler', and they now occupy almost all of Karaston!" Alfred pointed to a few points on the map and said in a solemn tone.
Pagani walked over to the map and looked at it, and was shocked, blurting out, "This.... If we don't withdraw, we're going to be surrounded on three sides?"
"It's four-sided! If we had a conflict with the Duchy of Heidler, the garrisons of Intis and Fenerport would surely attack our rear, and we would have really died at that point." Alfred corrected.
"So, why did the country transfer His Excellency Dirkha back?" Pagani grumbled again.
"Because Her Excellency Dirkha is Her Majesty's man, some of the big people don't want Her Majesty's hand to be in the army." Alfred sighed.
"It's all this time, are those guys in Beckland still fighting among themselves?" Pagani was dumbfounded.
"It's because of the severity of the situation that they don't want Her Majesty's people to control the army." Alfred said it meaningfully.
The Empress is the least likely person for Rune to surrender, and if the army is too damaged under her control, or if the enmity with Intis and Fursac is too deep, some of the nobles who have planned it will lose a lot of bargaining chips.
As they spoke, Furth, who was hiding in the shadows of the barracks, asked Hugh beside him with great interest, "Is that why you want to go back?"
Hugh shook his head and said, "Those nobles may think so, but Your Majesty didn't think about meddling in the army at all...."And what am I doing in the Southern Continent? Fighting Abner's forces?"
"That's right!" Forth smiled and nodded, then looked at the "father" who had just won the title of "Lucky Wall", and "teleported" back to Beckland with Hugh without any nostalgia.
