Chapter XVII Crisis
From this point of view, most of the families who stood behind Cannan and the Silver Sword family were the families who supported Nero or Ryan, and there were only fourteen floating island giants in total. For more exciting novels, please go to Kiss.
Richard was in his heart, and then his face was silent, but he went through all the expressions of the heads of the family just now in his heart.
When the iron-blooded Grand Duke asked, Philip confirmed that the voting system was adopted to determine the heir to the throne, due to the importance of the matter, the expressions of the heads of the family changed somewhat, it stands to reason that the first reaction of the heads of the family was to exchange glances with their close allies, but in addition to Anan, there were three or four wealthy families looking at Richard, the iron-blooded Grand Duke's demeanor was unabashed, and his eyes were slightly regretful, and the expressions of several other family heads were worth playing, especially the Duke of Mensa, who couldn't help but glance at Richard.
Richard's talent for wisdom came into play at this time, replaying the scene of that moment repeatedly in his heart, and after a while, he already knew in his heart that even if Count Silver Sword was not directly instructed by Mensa, he would not be able to get rid of them.
Richard sneered in his heart, if Nereth almost lost the throne by one vote, he was ready to find an excuse to start a war with Mensa, even if there was no excuse for a while, he would fight first, he didn't care about the overall situation of the Holy Alliance, since Mensa still dared to play conspiracy behind his back, then he would return the war to his face.
Richard's style of acting is already ruthless, but he still can't stop the endless conspiracies of others against Akmund, if he doesn't fight back fiercely at every provocation, who knows if Akmund will be inexplicably pushed out and become a victim in the next crisis of the alliance, he doesn't want to be a fatal blow from behind in the future foreign war.
When Gordon was there, the way to deal with such a scene was very simple, that is, to fight from house to house until no one dared to provoke again, and now Richard intended to use the same method, which was simple and crude, but effective.
This matter was agreed, Philip motioned for everyone to be quiet, and said: "There is a third thing, the envoys of the Holy Tree Dynasty and the Millennium Empire have arrived in Faust and are ready to discuss the garrison of the Legion Fortress in the Land of Dusk. ”
One of the head of the house lost his voice and said, "So fast." ”
Philip said calmly: "There are occasional inductions between super strong people, and when my final attempt to recover from my injuries failed, it is possible that they will sense it, so there will be a matter of the Duke of Orleans with the hidden sword."
There was silence again in the round table room, and all the heads of the family were silent.
Guarding the two legion fortresses is actually beyond the ability of the Holy Alliance, in the past, it was by relying on Philip's unrivaled combat power to forcibly occupy the place where the Asahi was rising, which barely maintained the situation, and now, obviously, relying on the Holy Alliance alone, it is difficult to hold the two legion fortresses at the same time, and the envoys of the Holy Tree Dynasty and the Millennium Empire came to negotiate and share the defense of the legion fortress.
However, the other two empires will not take on the defense of the legion fortress for free, and over the years, the three empires have formed a tacit understanding, that is, to use the land of twilight as an alternative arena to determine the division of interests between each other.
When Philip captured the Asahi Ascension in one fell swoop, the Millennial Empire and the Holy Tree Dynasty immediately said that they had withdrawn from many disputed areas on the border, and at the same time withdrew from several planes that were occupied by the Holy Alliance and repeatedly fought with each other, which was a direct benefit of tens of millions of dollars per year.
But this time, after losing Philip and deposing Marshal Rundstead, the Holy Alliance even has the ability to hold a legion fortress, and it is inevitable to give up a legion fortress, although it is in the name of assisting in defense, but the Peerless Battlefield is a place where the strong have the right to speak, and the entire alliance can be seen to suffer huge losses, and the two empires are prepared, and the thousand-year-old empire has already made a move in advance, and this time I don't know how many benefits I have to get to be satisfied.
At this time, Duke Turan lightly clasped the table, frowned, and said: "We need at least one legion fortress to defend dúli, this is the lowest bottom line, so, my advice is that each family tries to summon back the legendary powerhouses who explore the plane, we need at least two legendary powerhouses who are willing to sit in the legion fortress to be able to stabilize the situation, if it is a legendary powerhouse who is not good at fighting, we need three." ”
The Duke of Turan's establishment did not raise the heads of the house.
Once the legendary powerhouse penetrates deep into the plane, it is difficult to get in touch, even if it costs a lot of money to get in touch, I don't know if they are willing to come back, and then boringly go to the legion fortress.
Most of the legendary powerhouses are mavericks, especially those who have the ability to explore across the plane, their vision of the world is completely different from that of ordinary people, the kingdom and the family may not be as attractive to them as the hidden resources and rules in the depths of the plane, maybe the crisis of the death of the bloodline can still make them look back, but the future of the secular power union certainly does not have this weight, so in the final analysis, there is only one last question, how much benefit can the alliance give in exchange for the service of the legendary powerhouse.
Moreover, those legendary powerhouses are still in the depths of the plane at the moment, and the envoys of the two empires have already arrived in Dìdū, how can they be so lucky to be able to contact the legendary powerhouses of their own family and rush back to Norland in time.
Moreover, Richard, who was watching coldly, also found that several families had other ideas, most of them could contact the ancestral legends of the family, but they did not want to make unwarranted dedication to the Holy Alliance, in case this ancestral legend accidentally died in the Legion Fortress, it would definitely be a heavy blow to the comprehensive strength of the family, not to mention a series of chain reactions within the clan, I am afraid that the floating island families on the same level will be ready to move.
Relatively loose alliances and mysteries, sometimes even the necessary unity can not be done, until this time, the first consideration of each wealthy family is their own interests, which is not at all comparable to the thousand-year-old empire of the centralized power of the divine room, and even compared to the Holy Tree Dynasty with the separation of clerical power.
However, all the floating island giants, including Richard, still prefer to stay in the Holy Alliance, where the giants and the royal family are actually equal under the premise of equal strength.
As for the transfer of the Legion Fortress, the heads of the families could not discuss a better way, and they had to wait until the negotiations officially began, and first weigh how big the appetite of the two empires was.
From leaving the royal floating island to walking into the floating island of Akmund, Richard's heart has always been depressed and gloomy.
He has personally spent many years in the Peerless Battlefield, and he knows very well what it means to be super strong, that is a country, a race, and even a pillar of a plane, in front of the super strong, the legends also need to rely on geography and numbers to be able to defeat, and ordinary Sanctuary can no longer rely on the number to pile up the super strong.
Only the super-strong can compete with the super-strong, and without a sufficient number of super-strong to sit and deter, they will eventually be divided and surrounded by the Daxodas like in the last battle of Dusk, and each one will be defeated.
Philip was finally about to leave the stage, and instantly gave Richard the feeling that the sky of the Holy Alliance was overturning, which made him feel the pressure suddenly increase, Richard knew that he had to do something, but what could he do, the whole of Akmund, now there is not even a legendary powerhouse.
Fortunately, Richard listened to Nolan's Jianyì, and now with the Faceless Horseman, this may be the most special Chosen Guardian is not clear about its own combat power, although she is temporarily limited to the level cap of level sixteen, but a legendary equipment, it should not be a problem to compete head-on with the Sanctuary, but her biggest role now is the exclusive ability of the war fanatic, after blessing the war fanatic, Richard believes that whether it is himself or Tiramisu, they can compete with the legendary powerhouse, and the splash should also be able to resist the most ordinary legend, At least at the level of strategic power, Richard is no longer powerless.
Another factor that made Richard feel gloomy was Nereus.
Now Richard finally knows the root cause of the abnormality of the four princes during this time, in retrospect, in fact, there are already clues in many things, for example, after Nereus entered the Holy Domain, he was opened up by Agamemnon in terms of combat power, even if Agamemnon was honed from the battlefield of the Peerless Domain, but considering the level of the bloodline of the two, this is a very unreasonable result, and for example, Nereus's appearance of complete abnormality in the battle of Sword Wind City.
Moreover, Richard also noticed that he had never seen Nereus use the Sanctuary ability once, and based on the information revealed by Philip today, it was obvious that after Nereus entered the Sanctuary, he was hesitant about the future of his power development, so he never used the Sanctuary ability, so that the combat power that appeared was far lower than the actual strength.
This is the worst case, more fatal than Nereus's gender cognitive disorder, the strong people above the Sanctuary have doubts about the direction of their power, and even have reached the point where they are unwilling to use their power for this reason, and the future is not just as simple as stopping to move forward, it is possible for the power disorder to lead to demotion and even lose the mind.
However, if even the giver of the bloodline, Philip, could not give guidance to Nereus, Richard would be even more powerless.
Returning to the floating island, Richard ordered his subordinates to strengthen their vigilance, and transferred some constructed knights over, re-increasing the number of constructed knights on the floating island to 100 horses, and then went to the training room on the top floor of the castle, ready to continue to cultivate his two new hearts, the only thing he can do now is to seize every minute to improve his strength as much as possible before the worst moment comes,
