28.Chapter 28: Marcus's Secret Order

"Everyone stand down~", Lao Wang lazily spit out a sentence, but just as all the loyal ministers and wealthy families were about to leave the throne, Lao Wang's stinky mouth said one more word

"Norman, you stay, I have something to say!"

Surprised, Marcus Norman was a little indifferent, after all, after every meeting, what was left was the old fox of Julius, was there something big to let a family that only relied on whaling ships get the king's grace, Norman's head kept surging out of all kinds of possibilities, but none of them seemed to be a reasonable explanation, so Marcus was a little big, maybe it must be something unseemly

Before everyone could leave the throne hall, the king spoke

"Can't really find a birdman's feather?", the voice was clearly intended to be heard by everyone who left

"My king, I really can't find it, you must know that it took most of the day just to get the news and arrive at the sea surface of the designation, the distance between the royal city and the sea, you know, thousands of leagues, even if I directly throw the group of mercenary cubs in the family from the edge of the royal city, it is estimated that I will not be able to find a little thing, after all, the sea will fog at night, and those disgusting tentacles will come out from time to time to forage for food, maybe the disgusting birds who killed the princess have already got the end they deserve!" , Marcus crackled out of his mouth with such a long sentence, so that those guys who asked themselves about themselves could confirm it again

"Can't you board the ship quickly with the iron cable, but I remember that it only took a quarter of an hour to get from the royal city to the sea below~", the old king was unhappy, and the smell in his mouth was indescribable to Marcus in front of him

"Ah, not everyone can be as brave and invincible as my king back then, you must know that to put it bluntly, those rabbit cubs in our family who rely on gold to eat, are not scared half to death from the middle of the iron rope is already very remarkable." At that time, the old king himself issued an order to let this volley of the royal city, so there was a way to escape quickly, so it took ten years to repair the iron cable from the giant valley one by one, and after it was connected, no one dared to extend it down from above. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info When Lao Wang's heart was surging, he was the first to shout to try whether this guy was strong or not, so before everyone had time to stop it, Lao Wang untied the belt on his body and pinched it into a ring, and then put it on the iron rope, and disappeared from everyone in front of him, frightening the loyal ministers to cry and call their mother, but soon, from the sea came the lit lamp, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, I didn't expect this Lao Wang to be so playful like a child, and he was playing with his own life~, If one is not, the skater fell from the middle, it is estimated that no matter how strong Lao Wang is, he will also be smashed into a meatloaf, after all, before the iron cable is completed, many poor people who have been assigned to come have experienced what it means to fly like a birdman~, thinking of this, Marcus's face was full of sweat, and his head was as big as a walk

"My king, do you want to say, why didn't I slide down directly like my king did back then, and find something I wanted to find as soon as possible?", Marcus thought for a long time, and finally came up with some seemingly reliable conclusions, and at this moment, the bustling loyal ministers had already guessed a rough reason, and they all accelerated the pace of leaving here, anyway, Marcus was going to suffer, even Cohen thought so in his heart~

"Well, yes, even a little bit of broken limbs can make Lauster feel better, just like the way he did just now, don't you think Lauster is so angry that he wants to commit suicide?", Lao Wang spit out these words unhurriedly, which made Marcus have a strong urge to urinate

"My king, for the sake of our family's contribution to the royal city over the past few decades, I will let the old minister die happily, I don't want to be a human candle~", if you want to pretend to cry, maybe the first of the five major families is Cohen, and the second is Marcus, so soon the old Wang saw the sincere tears of repentance, and the old immortal Marcus was able to squeeze out a few tears, and the old Wang's heart was simply happy

"Haha, Marcus Qing, it's not like this, it's not like this!", Lao Wang smiled

"Listen to me, if you don't do the next thing well, maybe you will really become the second wealthy family to be dragged away as a candle after I am in power!", after that, Lao Wang's eyes suddenly spared around the throne, and when he found that no one was around, Lao Wang finally opened his mouth again

"I want those fifty heavy horsemen and thirty light horsemen of the Blood Moon Knights, don't come back to the royal city, I believe you know what to do, after all, Fira's place, you kid is much more familiar than me~"

"But~", Marcus was about to refute, but indeed, there was nothing to refute, the king's order was the king's order, whether it was telling everyone with great fanfare, or letting some people sneak around and do some disgusting things

"I know that the Cohen family has a lot of eyeliner in Fira, and Julius has already buried secret agents on his side, which is the secret situation. And the Lauster family and the Lucas family, there are also some spies who went to join the whaling team in the name of mercenaries, this is the situation on the surface, after all, Fira is the only autonomous region in the entire continent that is still in my hands, and it is also a sea poison flower that I have carefully cultivated, you must know that sometimes the control is too strict, and many things can not always surface, maybe one day my old fool will be deceived by you, don't you say, Marcus Aiqing?"

"Ah, what my king said is that even our Marcus family has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in Fila, hoping to continue to send the fattest sea fish to our king and offer the freshest whale oil for the king~", Marcus's face turned from cloudy to sunny again, and he laughed with the old king

Indeed, all the continents that are still under control are functioning in a good way in the laws and rules promulgated by the old king, except for Fira, the core of information and commerce, several wealthy families have become the head snakes in this region, but they are called [freedom and equality] Fira is indeed a strange piece on all continents, because in addition to the power of the royal city, there are also some obvious forces that affect the development of Fira, such as the group of barbarians who came to settle in Fira from the far north, or the group of troublesome goods who came from the capital of Jinsha, even those black guys in the Valley of the Giants, all want to have some fun with Fira, or carry out large-scale trade activities, whether the caravan is from the sea or from the stone bridge, these people can always find a route to Fira, and can always transport supplies to the mainland from Fira after the Fire Festival, it can be said that the royal city is the political and spiritual center of the entire continent, and it is the brain, and Phila is the heart of the royal city, and this filthy heart is a steady stream of gold and resources for the royal city, as well as countless information

However, the guards of the royal city are too strict, whether it is the thieves and gangsters or those daring night beast tribes, none of them dare to break into the royal city and make a big fuss, of course, the matter of Princess Nicole is another matter. Fira, however, is a city that pops out of the sea, not only with stone bridges connecting the royal city to the rest of the city, but also for all sorts of people, including hybrids born of nocturnal beasts and humans, as well as the occasional job to work as a water rat on a whaling ship, or to perform a bloody or unsightly excitement show in a circus, or to act as an assassin for some wealthy people. Because in Fira, having power is not the most important thing, having money is the real king. But Lao Wang doesn't care what Phila will develop into at all, if you want to talk about the beliefs there, the precepts are like garbage by everyone, and the guys who stay in Fila all the year round are not only mentally superior to the people on other continents, but often conspire to assassinate and kidnap, just like children. Therefore, several wealthy families in Wangcheng will send more suitable people among their children to Phila to exercise for a few years, and then obey the king's orders and go to the family's fiefdom to lead everyone, Phila is a gold coin with dung, on the vast sea, shining, but also smelly and unpleasant~, especially for those ordinary people who have never been to Phila, whether they can come out of the flower street alive is a difficult thing

However, Marcus obviously knew what Lao Wang meant, but how could he escape with such a big move, so Marcus began to worry again, his own family relied on eating black money and assassination to climb up step by step, and successfully ascended to the throne after overthrowing the fifth largest family in the royal city that year, this kind of behavior has long been shameless by other families, and even some are extremely repulsed by the disgusting deeds of the Marcus family, if things are not done well, it is likely to become the scapegoat for the old king's dirty behavior, at least in Marcus's heart, this royal life is simply more difficult than ascending to the sky

"I know you're thinking about it again, on the ground you miscellaneous rangers are not the opponents of the heavy cavalry, but on the sea, can't you still be the king and hegemon?", Lao Wang's words woke up Marcus, who was still hesitating, this guy suddenly seemed to have a flash of inspiration, and countless feasible plans popped out of his head, and Marcus himself laughed

"The trust of our king, Marcus Norman, is here!"

"You are also a big boss, you pay more attention to self-cultivation on weekdays, and Lauster, Lucas, those old stubborn don't fight around, everyone has a different division of labor, you must know that the former is not as nourished as you live, and the latter wants to quietly snatch the ownership of the whaling team from your hands, so that their family can eat a lot of money. But you know, I don't want everyone to fight to the death, but you are all the closest people around me, without you, how can the royal city still operate, how can these seven continents continue to survive?", Lao Wang said as he swallowed saliva to satisfy his hunger, and then, without waiting for Marcus to speak, Lao Wang continued to talk

"I can't bear the combat strength of the eighty, but you must already know that the people sent out are all new soldiers, or old, weak, sick and disabled guys, compared to the Kord sent to Gordon Town, that dead fat man can top twenty, so even I don't feel distressed, what are you distressed about?"

"I think you must be asking in your heart, why do you do this? I also know that you don't dare to ask, for fear of offending me, but since you want to do this thing in a down-to-earth manner, you must give you the bottom in advance, you must know that some families are too self-respecting, and keep saying that they are extremely loyal, but what are you secretly doing to hide from my eyes?"

After Marcus listened, he was so frightened that he didn't even dare to say anything, this information was too complicated for himself, and he would fall into endless struggles if he wasn't careful, after all, many years of experience made Marcus know that several wealthy families are not easy to mess with at all, and the old king in front of him is the most difficult to mess with and the most unprovoked monster. Marcus turned out a trace of bitterness in his heart at the moment, it seems that this trip is not simple~

"You are a mediocre talent, why don't you say a few words to me, are you dumb?" Lao Wang was a little impatient, and the hunger in his stomach hit Lao Wang's nerves wave by wave, making Lao Wang almost faint

"Ah, my king is angry!", Marcus hurriedly said, this place is not suitable for a long time, Marcus decided to fight quickly, so that he could go back and discuss countermeasures with a few trusted people

"Indeed, Weichen has some concerns, not to mention that loyal ministers with outstanding military achievements such as Raust have opened up countless territories for our king, not to mention the Lucas family, who control the three continents, can be regarded as the pearl of my king's territory, not to mention that the Cohen family has been in charge of the treasury for generations and has done their best for our king, these families, we Marcus can't afford to provoke any of them. But then again, since the king's life is in his body, then even if he dies, it is worth it, so I Norman can't care so much, but how to resolve the hatred and disdain of several wealthy families against our clan in the future, and I have to trouble my king to help a lot~" , Anyway, Marcus finally revealed his bottom line, if it is done, it cannot be used as the responsibility of other families' punching bag, if it is defeated, of course, Marcus will not sit in the royal city and wait for death, but there is a little connection over there in the Golden Sands Capital, and Marcus has made up his mind

"Hesitant fart, such a great opportunity, do you think I will give it to others? To say that there is not even a leading general in the Marcus family who has ever been in the heavy cavalry regiment, and even the third largest mercenary knight group in the royal city, its leader is also a stinky boy of the Cohen family, and if you don't assign some suitable people to the right positions, do you want to watch the royal city be made into a miasma by these arrogant and reckless families before the night beasts attack?" , Lao Wang was obviously unhappy, threw down this sentence, and walked towards the passage behind the throne, leaving Marcus alone to stay in place, this guy thought for a long time before a sentence popped out of his mouth

"My king, thank you for your !!"

Although Lao Wang gave Marcus a reliable reward, the reason why Marcus was able to climb to his current position was also because he had his own doubts, why did he dispose of so many people, and why did Lao Wang always use the fighting momentum of several wealthy families as a reason and not tell the real reason? Marcus was very hesitant, perhaps, the real reason why the old king still failed to tell himself in his heart, but as far as the important position of the family boy can be among the heavy cavalry regiment and the mercenary group, Marcus also felt that this matter was worth fighting, and his grandfather and father were not all slowly accumulated through little things to get the opportunity to fight, and then let God's favor and mercy mix the Marcus family from a ruffian-like status of Phila to the current prestige, so Marcus decided not to hesitate anymore, in fact, the old king will not give Marcus the opportunity to continue to hesitate, Because the heavy cavalry group heading to Fira has been on set off for three days, it will probably take some energy to catch up with this group of guys from the sea, and this incident, Marcus decided to do it himself, so as not to give birth to some variables~

The old king finally reached the bottom of the sacrificial ground, and after coming out of the entrance of the throne hall, the old king was looking for Julius, but this guy seemed to have disappeared, and the anxious old king scolded his mother, so that someone could help him, and he would not be in such an embarrassed state as he was now

The guards at the gate of the sacrificial field saw the faltering old queen, and ran over for the first time, with the cooperation of the two guards, the old king finally sat on the wheel slide to the bottom, before going on the slide, the old king told the guards not to go down, after all, the road behind the old king needs to go by himself

But soon, there were two more robes around Lao Wang, one black and one red, the black guys were collectively called [Darth], and the red ones were collectively called [Bourne], and the guys, who had already given up their real names, supported Lao Wang to walk to the middle of the sacrificial ground, where there were ingredients that had been prepared for Lao Wang

The bottom of the sacrificial ground is very dark, although the lit lamps illuminate the surrounding walls as bright as the sun, but these rays just can't penetrate the air, completely transmitted to the center of the bottom of the sacrificial ground, where dozens of large and small cages are hung, and the roar from inside has long ceased to be harsh, Lao Wang asked the two guys around him while walking

"What about Julius, has he been here?"

"King Qiqi, he is not here, but Lord Julius greeted the guards before, saying that my king is coming to the bottom, let us wait for a good life~"

"Where did this guy go?", Lao Wang couldn't help but wonder, this body finally grew about the same height as the previous body of rotten wood, it was just about to enter the good moment of eating, without Julius beside him, Lao Wang actually felt a little unaccustomed, after all, this guy can communicate with those things held in the cage, and choose the right heart to dedicate to himself, which is just like ordinary people in Wangcheng going to the vegetable market to choose live chickens, if you have no experience, you can't choose good things. However, the reason why Lao Wang felt upset was because this old guy would always accompany him to say a few words when he was eating, so as to dispel the dull atmosphere, after all, there was a dark and oppressive area here, and Lao Wang always felt uncomfortable

"Okay, so is my food ready?" asked Wang in a deep voice

"Lord Julius has prepared for my king, today there are three tender and delicious little hearts, which have already been put on the plate, please come with us~", after that, the black-robed Das shook the torch in his hand, as if he wanted to dispel this thick darkness, and then lead the way

The sacrificial square is really big, in terms of big, it is indeed a little small to peek into the space of dozens of leagues, after all, the sacrificial square occupies one-third of the boundary of the royal city, and it is not open to the public on weekdays, only when the flame festival is held, everyone will go, and this bottom square has penetrated into the space of more than a dozen leagues under the surface of the royal city, which not only makes people feel depressed breathing, but also makes the old king uncomfortable at this moment, after all, the number of night beasts imprisoned here is unstoppable by the old king's body that has not yet recovered。 But if Julius was here, maybe the old king's heart would not be so worried

Originally, the Cohen family had recently proposed to open a passage from the mansion of Cohen and the Lucas family to allow the people to go to the sacrificial square, so that at least these cheap feces and urine would not be spilled in the throne hall, but this proposal was rejected by the old king. Let the people lining up for a long line to draw a few days before entering the sacrificial square, it is originally a custom of the Festival of Fire, everyone can see the majesty of the high throne, and look at the map of the continent made of agate stones under the throne, no matter how much exclamation those mediocre people will make, no matter whether there is a fire on the map of the continent extinguished or ignited, it can make these guys who come to leave a profound image that will be unforgettable for a lifetime, after all, it may be their last profound impact, because there are not many people who return alive from the Festival of Fire

Thinking of this, Lao Wang couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart in the dark, hundreds of years of repetition had made Lao Wang tired of the so-called [Fire Festival], but the mission on his body made Lao Wang have to continue this custom, so Lao Wang continued to walk and moved closer to those cages that had begun to be restless

"Look, take me enough, you god-damn monsters!", the old king cursed in his heart, and shook a blood-drenched thing in his hand around the edge of the cage, and then ate in front of the cage in spite of the obstruction of the black and red robes

It seems that the noisy sounds around him are getting weaker and weaker, and Lao Wang can clearly perceive that the nutrition of this flesh and blood is rapidly transmitted to every corner of the body, making the muscles around the body more developed, and even the body has grown a little taller, the only pity is that this heart seems to be too small, Lao Wang ate a fine light in two bites, and the remaining two things of almost the same size were also swallowed by Lao Wang, strength, the strength of the body, so that Lao Wang wanted to find a place to vent

After a while, the frightened black robe came back to his senses, hundreds of cages made a sound of metal and rock colliding in the violent shaking, today's eating, finally the first time that the old king got a new body, more ostentatious than the one a few decades ago, after all, there are only three humans here, and the other living creatures are all rumored to be terrifying night beasts

"Grandma's quiet!", Lao Wang's roar spread throughout the entire ground floor space, this sound was like thunder, and the red robe roared so much that his ears were about to tear apart, but Lao Wang obviously failed to satisfy the catharsis of this language, and continued to roar again, "If you want to live, stay honest, otherwise after the fire source is turned on, you will all be burned to ashes!"

Obviously, these two sentences have become the words that these Night Beast tribes can understand without translation, after all, Julius has emphasized to the guys in the cage many times before that there is a huge fire source under the rock formation they are in, if the old king is not happy that day, maybe open all the mechanisms under these cages, so that all the imprisoned guys can enjoy the taste of roasting in the eternal flames, after all, the old king has a criminal record, and the night beasts imprisoned in this cage have only been imprisoned for three generations

Unexpectedly, these desperately shaking cages were quiet, just like the last time he was reborn, Lao Wang's heart was extremely satisfied, and if he ate a few more hearts, his body would be as strong as an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, and then he would continue to look for a suitable princess and reproduce the next generation of princesses who could pass on the fire~, Lao Wang's mind quickly thought about these things, but the hunger in his stomach seemed to suddenly come again, so that Lao Wang had to come back from thinking again

But just when Lao Wang wanted to speak and ask the black robe to get him two or three more things to swallow, a guy in a cage in the distance actually used human language and said crookedly

"You shameless ~ scum! Even if our tribe turns into food in your body, you will be cursed for eternity! Maybe next time, you will only have five fires, instead of the current six, and by then, the entire continent will be the world of our night beasts, be enlightened, the king of mankind, you will eventually become a pile of carrion!"

Even the old king was amazed, there were actually night beasts that spoke the lingua franca of mankind, this was an unprecedented event, who taught these monsters, Julius, or the black-robed and red-robed people who stayed in the sacrificial ground every day?

However, even in the face of such a provocation, Lao Wang did not feel that there was any problem at all, after all, at the sound of an order, the mechanism under this cage would be opened, and this disobedient fellow would be roasted into a fat feast in front of other night beasts whose eyes were almost blinded by the firelight. Anyway, it was boring, Lao Wang actually said with interest

"It's amazing, I actually learned our human language", while saying, Lao Wang walked towards the cage behind, not even bringing a torch, this behavior directly made the black robe and the red robe scared, and quickly knelt on the ground and begged Lao Wang not to move forward, if there is really a three long and two short, these two guys can not escape the relationship

But Wang didn't think about moving forward with the torch, because the range that the torch could illuminate was too limited, and Wang decided to let this guy who dared to speak out and touch Wang's anger taste the power of his new body

Soon, under the attention of all the night beasts, Lao Wang walked to the last cage alone, looking at the big guy inside, Lao Wang actually laughed, this laughter made all the surrounding night beasts tremble, even if the behemoth in the thick fog rumored in the tribe did not seem to have the human horror of the little man in front of him

"Hmm, let's make a fire, otherwise I really can't remember what kind of tribe you are~", after that, Lao Wang stretched out his hand, and actually leaned into the cage made of steel regardless of the danger, and at this moment the other night beasts began to chirp in their obscure language with great fanfare, as if instigating this imprisoned beast, and at this moment there was a chance to bite and tear the disgusting human in front of him to pieces~

But before the bloody mouth approached, the palm of the old king was lit with a raging fire, this sudden fire made all the night beasts avoid, a few close guys let out a sad scream, presumably the eyes were stimulated by the strong light to be blinded, and some of the night beasts in the distance quickly put their hands or wings, and even their tails blocked their eyes, the bottom of the entire sacrificial field, suddenly from the palm of the old king's hand gradually became bright, this flame, this heat, this light, made all the night beasts cry, large and small iron cages shook again because of the recklessness of the night beasts, as if to tell the old king, we know that we are wrong, please, put out this flame~

But the old king seemed to be unsatisfied, sometimes burning the flames more violently, and sometimes suddenly retracting most of the flames, weakening the transmission of light. These stupid guys thought that Lao Wang was about to extinguish the flames, but they didn't expect that the suddenly stronger light seemed to pierce their eyes like a red-hot soldering iron, making these guys who didn't know what to do shed tears like blood

After a while, Lao Wang finally had enough, took the flame out of his palm, and paused on the top of the cage in front of him, so that this guy with his eyes covered would suffer alone, after all, Lao Wang is the best at this kind of thing, whether it is for the major families in Wangcheng, or for the wild bear man in front of him who has been blinded

"I remember your name, haha, how can I easily forget your name?", Lao Wang said in a deep voice, this wild bear man called Blood Claw, the body is five times the size of Lao Wang, but unlike other night beasts, this guy does not even have a complete fur on his body, if someone can see through the faint light of fire at this moment, he will definitely be scared half to death by the appearance of this wild bear man. This guy no longer has any teeth, and judging by the extent of these fractures, they were completely pulled out or cut off alive, at least there is not a single intact gum in the large mouth of the bloody claw. And this guy was tied up by iron chains, his limbs had already broken tendons and bones, and he was weakly resting on the edge of this special cage, and more than a dozen nails were deeply submerged into this arm, and the exposed part of the nails had already been rusted, and the black rust was mixed with the red blood donation, constantly corroding as if it had long been unable to withstand the nails of this arm, but the arm of the blood claw just couldn't be raised, and under careful observation, the bones of this arm were pulled out alive, and the tragic situation was indescribable

If you change the angle, you will feel that this night beast is really pitiful, from this guy's waist and abdomen was opened alive, a tube inserted at the incision is directly connected to the gallbladder of the blood claw, the thick green bile slowly drip down the tube into an iron bucket, just look at the degree of corrosion of this iron pipe, you know that it has been inserted for at least several years, such pain is indescribable, I really don't know how this guy called the blood claw survived, after all, his right hand was also tied up by iron chains, and he couldn't move at all

"Do you remember the smell of my sister?", Lao Wang said, while stabbing the iron pipe in his hand into the wound on the waist and abdomen of the blood claw, the latter even closed his eyes were suddenly opened in pain, presumably this pain is extraordinary, soon, at the bottom of the silent sacrifice ground, only the sound of liquid dripping from the body of the blood claw can be heard, this sound seems to be urging, so that all the night beasts dare not make a sound, after all, Lao Wang's ferocity and methods, no worse than any night beast tribe

"As I said, Bloodclaw, I'm going to catch you, and I'm going to give you a taste of life worse than death. After all, when my sister fell into your hands, it was also the end, and it was even worse", Lao Wang said slowly, and then put his mouth directly on the top of the tube and drank, this scene directly scared the guys in several cages behind Lao Wang to the point that the collapsed

"Hey, it tastes really good, it seems that the old guy Julius really cares for you and has a family, the rotten meat of the annual Fire Festival must be eaten for you~", while drinking the fishy bile, he also sucked violently with his tongue and lips, this way of eating is exactly the same as the half-spider tribe, seeing this, even a few half-spider people almost knelt down, wanting to let the old king be gracious, so that they can follow the old king~~, it is better than eating here and waiting for death

"Hmm, let me take two more sips, I'm so hungry~", I didn't expect Lao Wang's next sentence to be like this, I heard that the black robe and red robe behind me were terrified, fortunately Lao Wang is not good at human flesh, otherwise these two guys don't even have the strength to escape

Completely ignoring how the wild bear man called Bloodclaw hissed and begged for mercy, Lao Wang ate several large bites, and even drank all the contents of the bucket, before he came back to his senses and continued to laugh

"Tell me honestly, how did you know that there is one less fire behind me, if there is half a point of adulteration, I will roast you and eat it today!"
