Chapter 353: The Dusk Order is willing to help for the sake of friendship

"Priestess, the Mass Empire has been asking when we left......"

After determining the foundation of the city to be built, the other asked with some difficulty, waiting for Darren's answer.

Darren groaned, then looked at the man who was looking for the city.

"If you use the warlocks in the Dusk Order, how long will it take to get that area in order?"

He frowned and pondered for a moment, then replied.

"Back to the priest, it will be about ten days."

"Ten Days ......"

Looking at the dim light outside the hall, Darren's mind flashed with thoughts.

He was silent for a long time before he spoke calmly.

"In that case, let's set it for half a moon later, when spring is also coming and the temperature is warmer."

"It's the priest, then I'll reply to the envoy from the Empire."

After getting the answer he wanted, the person in charge of negotiating with the Mass Empire quickly left.

He needed to tell the messengers of the Empire the news.

However, as soon as he walked out of the hall, he seemed to remember something, so he turned back and walked briskly to Tarlen's side.

Darren was slightly surprised to see this, and then asked.

"Anything else?"

"Priest, I have heard that the Empire does not seem to be stable at the moment, and has been completely divided into two factions. One faction was headed by the queen, while the other was headed by the nobility. ”

Hearing this, Darren's eyes narrowed slightly, and a ray of light flashed somehow.

"You mean ......"

"We are now dealing with the Queen's faction, who advocate a peaceful solution. On the other hand, the aristocratic faction was dissatisfied with the queen's approach, believing that it had lost the face of the empire......"

"There seem to be some signs that the aristocratic faction is on the move, and I fear that the queen's faction may encounter resistance from them."

"Then the boundaries we have agreed with the Empire will also be full of changes......

The person in charge quickly explained the general matter, and for a while he was a little dry.

"I already know."

Darren nodded, this is indeed a question worth exploring.

It's just that for the Twilight Order, it only needs to ensure stability within the empire within half a month.

As for what will happen after that, it obviously has nothing to do with them.

Because at that time, the Order of Twilight and most of the people who would follow them built their own city, a city that served society with the power of warlocks.

In the group's vision, as long as they get through the period of scarcity in the early stage, there will be no need for any more materials to flow in.

There may even be more food circulating to increase its attractiveness.

This is something that they have already established after seeing the newly developed plant.

Ever since the Apostle of Dusk came up with ideas for the study of crops, those who used it for research began to conduct various experiments.

Finally, after a few months, there was a first-generation version of the institute that was established.

This original crop was an extremely cold-tolerant and drought-tolerant wheat.

It's just right for this kind of remote and poor place.

The yield of this wheat has been greatly improved, and the grain is fuller, and the survival rate of seedlings is also extremely high.

At that time, they estimated that a plot of land would grow about two to three times more food than before.

In other words, a piece of land of the same size can feed twice as many people.

There is no doubt that this is a tremendous step forward for society.

And now the institute is continuing to develop a later version.

And it's not just wheat, rice, corn, soybeans...... These major crops are under development.

It's just that their progress is different, but the example of wheat has made a lot of breakthroughs in the past.

In addition, Darren also gathered farmers who were extremely proficient in farming, and asked them to summarize some planting techniques and compile them into a manual.

Then the manuals were handed out one after another, so that everyone had a basic understanding of agricultural affairs, and no longer knew nothing and did not care about planting.

There are also farm tool modifications, pest and disease control......

Darren has been focusing most of his energy on this lately.

Faced with such a complicated and headache-inducing matter, he stubbornly cleaned it out and arranged it one by one.

Everything is handled in an orderly and meticulous manner.

That's how we have the good atmosphere we have now, and the kind of vigor that people can clearly see.

But even as a Morning Star Warlock, Darren has a lot of energy.

After the processing was completed, it was rare to have a trace of deep fatigue.

All of this was seen in the eyes of other believers, and they were deeply moved by it, and then they worked harder for tomorrow.

I don't know how many people have been inspired for a while.

Having said that, Darren thought about the internal contradictions of the empire for a moment, and then said to the person in charge of communicating with the empire.

"When the time comes, ask the envoy of the empire to bring a message to the queen."

"If anything goes wrong, the Order of Twilight is happy to help for the sake of the friendship between the two."

The person in charge was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly responded.

During the period of the development of the Order of Twilight, they needed an empire capable of communicating.

And the queen is clearly an excellent candidate.

Because she was not a member of the royal family, the nobles would not let her take control of the empire.

So the queen needs foreign support.

And this is when the Order of Twilight is a very good choice.

In particular, there has been a basis for cooperation between the two sides.

Looking at the departing figure of the person in charge, Darren's eyes were long and deep.

It was almost completely dark, and the sound of prayers wafted over the city.

Is it time to pray......

Darren was slightly stunned, and then showed a melancholy look.

Speaking of which, the things of the Order of Twilight have become more and more complicated.

Because of these things, I haven't had a formal prayer to the Great Lord of Twilight for a long time.

Lord, forgive me for this deep sin.

Darren slowly knelt down in the empty hall.

As if the Great Lord of Twilight was in front of him, his face became more and more solemn, and he sincerely prayed for her forgiveness.

Forgive yourself for being busy during this time.

Just wait for the city that belongs to twilight to be established, and then he will perform a grand ceremony.

Hopefully, the Lord will see the devout faith of believers.

……

Mass Empire, Royal Palace.

"Your Royal Highness, the Dusk Order has promised us that we will evacuate Desmond City in half a month."

Inside the empty house, a maid bent down to speak to the indifferent woman above.

"I see."

The queen's slightly hoarse voice sounded slowly, and there was no joy on her beautiful face, as if all this was expected by her.

The hazy black veil obscured her twin children, and only a faint trace of gilt could be seen.

"Her Royal Highness the Queen, I also asked someone over there to bring you a word."

"Say."

"If anything goes wrong, the Order of Twilight is happy to help for the sake of the friendship between the two."

The maid took a deep breath and spoke it out with some confusion.

Friendship?

What is the friendship between Her Royal Highness the Queen and the Order of Twilight?

How she didn't see it.

"Heh......"

The queen burst into a low chuckle.

The maid had never heard such a calm laugh from the queen, and she was curious, but she did not dare to look up.

"Reply to them, I appreciate the kindness of the Dusk Order, but I don't need them to worry."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The maid bent down again.

When her figure disappeared into the room, another figure appeared here.

"Biggs, what are you doing?"

The queen's face could not see joy and anger, but there was a slight doubt in her voice.

"Your Royal Highness, I just came here to remind you to pay attention to your own safety......"

He stared at the pair of sharp golden child holes above, and the half of the ugly and hideous face was slowly squirming.

The queen was silent for a moment, then turned her head sideways, revealing her swan-white neck.

She looked out of the huge floor-to-ceiling window beside her, and the sharp child's light was slightly distracted.

The white starlight was constantly flickering, and the silver crescent moon was bent and hidden in the thick black clouds.

And the countless street lights of the city below are lit up, and they are as bright as shining stars.

It's as if the stars in the sky are reflected in the water.

As far as the eye can see, it is difficult to distinguish which place is in the sky and which is the reflection.

"Those aristocrats are already so crazy?"

"You're driving them crazy, after all, the power of a country falls into the hands of women, which is an extremely unbearable thing for those nobles."

Biggs's tone was full of disdain for the aristocracy.

"Especially the coma of the current monarch, it is likely that they are doing it, and His Highness should not know what this means, right......?"

In the face of his words, the queen did not show surprise.

Maybe she knew it a long time ago.

After all, as soon as she became the queen, the current monarch of the Mass Empire fell into a coma that no one could wake up.

The strangeness of this makes many people wonder.

Most people suspect that the empress is trying to steal the power of the empire.

But only she knew she hadn't actually done anything.

The day before entering the palace, the monarch had already fallen into a coma.

Even her spells failed to awaken her.

Since then, the queen has vaguely known who is behind all this.

It's just that he has no evidence, and he is still the biggest suspect, so the words he said naturally don't have much credibility.

However, for the queen, why did she expose all this.

Is it to revive the old man?

The queen's face was as cold as ever, her snow-white skin was crystal clear, and there was a shallow glow under the starlight.

It's just that Biggs, who is located below, can clearly sense the increasingly cold emotion, as if it is full of endless resentment.

What is she resenting?

Biggs has no way of knowing.

At this moment, the queen's bright golden Tong Kong was slightly dark, but she thought of the things that made her unhappy before.

She was only sixteen years old that year, and she should have been a flower-like age when she was innocent and romantic.

But because of that person's desire, he let himself be trapped in the palace and couldn't break free.

Especially after the man fell into a coma, it was even more difficult to stand alone.

Countless gossips come in various forms.

What is she behind it, and what is she an ominous person......

There are even rumors that she is trying to get along with wild men, and she is quite recognized by the public.

She didn't know how she survived those years.

It was hard to fall asleep every night, and as soon as she closed her eyes, countless people surrounded her and pointed at her, undisguised their malice.

All this was a nightmare for the sixteen-year-old.

But fortunately, she finally survived, and even held half of the power as a woman.

Thinking of this, the queen may have to thank those nobles for putting the current monarch into a coma.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be where she is today.

Seeing that the queen had been silent and did not speak, Biggs continued.

"The aristocracy has long been interested in the power in the hands of the monarch, and after the birth of a princess by the previous queen, they began their own plans, intending to take charge of the empire for the younger princess, and then when they reach adulthood, they will pass their own heirs to become the future monarch......"

"And you're just cutting them off."

"Besides, don't you and I know what the temperament of those nobles looks like?"

"I can't tell if they are planning to assassinate His Highness right now......"

The queen turned her head, and her attention finally turned from the view outside the floor-to-ceiling window to Biggs.

"They want to plan to assassinate me?"

"I'm not 100 percent sure, but the odds are pretty good if it goes on like this. After all, didn't I experience many assassinations back then? ”

Biggs smiled nonchalantly.

Since the current monarch fell into a coma, his forces were immediately liquidated by the nobility.

And Biggs, as the dark side of the empire's twin blades, is naturally indispensable for all kinds of assassinations.

After all, he offended too many people.

Perhaps because of this, Biggs chose to work with the Queen.

It's ridiculous to say.

Obviously, the queen is the biggest suspect in causing the current monarch to fall into a coma, but most of the people under her are the people of the previous monarch.

They all suffered varying degrees of persecution before they were forced to join forces with the empress.
