At the same time.

When Shen Jian and the eldest princess rushed back to the south, there was an uproar in the east.

After all.

A plaque has been erected at every border in the east.

"The dog and the second prince are not allowed to enter the country."

- The Fourth Prince's Oral Parable.

This plaque is placed in the most conspicuous position, and basically every foreign ghost who arrives in the east can see the words on it.

The news spread.

This moment.

The whole country was in an uproar.

Whether it is the east border, or the south border next door, or the north and west borders far away, they all feel absurd.

The eastern land governed by the second prince refused the second prince's entry qualifications, and even put him and the dog in the list, which is simply a blatant insult.

What is even more shocking is that this plaque was actually asked by the fourth prince to be put up.

How did the fourth prince do this?

Why could he command the nobles of the East to do such an insult to the royal family?

Doubts continue to emerge.

The ghosts of the entire kingdom continent are puzzled.

It was also at this time.

There's news coming out of the East.

"The Eastern Noble Freemasons have reached some kind of agreement with the Fourth Prince, and will fully support the cause of the Fourth Prince, and the Second Prince was also kicked out of the Eastern Realm, completely disqualified from competing for the king's trial, and became the first prince to be eliminated."

As soon as the news came out.

The demons were shaken.

There was a boiling sound.

Quite a few ghosts have fallen into stupor.

it!

They just slept for a while, how could the situation in this kingdom change so much?

There's not even a sign of it.

Now in this situation, doesn't it mean that the fourth prince not only occupies Eagle City, but is about to become the lord of the southern realm, and even the eastern realm is also subservient?

One person sits on two realms, which is an unprecedented event.

It's awesome!

This royal bloodline, which once left a stigma in the kingdom and was known as the representative of "incompetent waste", occupied two realms in a short period of time, leaving his brothers and sisters far behind.

It can be described as not amazing.

It's just outrageous, open the door, outrageous home.

"Hey, what has the fourth prince been doing in secret for more than ten years? It was actually possible to rebel against all the members of the aristocratic Freemasons in the East under the nose of the second prince, which was much more difficult than violently occupying Eagle City. ”

"Obediently, the second prince is afraid that his face will be green, the first prince to be eliminated, just this name is destined to make him unable to raise his head in the future."

"Only I thought that the fourth prince prying his people away in front of the second prince, isn't this a kind of NTR?"

"What happened upstairs, there is such a deep sense of déjà vu."

Within the kingdom continent.

Such topics are talked about all the time.

In addition to the pity for the second prince, there is only worship for the fourth prince left.

Although this metaphor is not appropriate, it is enough to show how difficult it is to rebel against the nobles of the East.

There is no bottom on both floors.

Of course.

There was another group of people among them, who had rushed to the east as soon as they learned the news.

And at the various borders, I saw the sign.

Click!

A camera-like ghost with miniature eyes on his head is taking pictures of two young ladies from aristocratic families.

And what was photographed together was naturally the "Internet celebrity check-in attraction" - the plaque of the second prince.

……

The other side.

Such a lively scene did not affect the operation of the Duke's Palace in the South.

Except for the eldest princess Aniya who left inexplicably, the expression of the ghost clerk Kali Tyr was very high.

Affectionately reported the recent situation while Shen Jianjian.

"Your Highness, now that the Eastern Territory has been unified, do you need to expand the production scale of flintlock pistols? If the Eastern Realm fully supports it, the manufacture of flintlock pistols will enter a stage of rapid development, and I have calculated that it only takes one day to produce more than a thousand flintlock pistols, and it will not take a month for us to annex the four major realms. ”

Cali Tyr's eyes lit up.

It shimmers with an azure sheen.

What she said is already a conservative estimate.

If she was more daring, she felt that even if it was a royal city, it would not be able to reach the army of the four princes, and if it was now the era of the heroes, the four princes would have obtained the qualifications to defeat everyone and establish a country and become kings.

"Well, that's up to you."

Shen Jian nodded slightly.

The seizure of the north and the high seas is now the next stage of the task.

The demons in the north, the fleet of deep sea devils on the high seas, are all hard bones, and he needs more strength to crush an army of 350,000 or 100,000.

In particular, the deep-sea devil fleet of the Six Princesses occupies the entire high seas, and there are ghost pirates under their command, even if the number is not 100,000, I am afraid it is almost the same.

Such an army of pirates is unmatched by the current artillery team.

But with the power of the East, it's a different story.

He's looking forward to that.

Modern thermal weapons against cold weapons are undoubtedly dimensionality reduction strikes.

If he had a gun team of 100,000 people in his hands, the military strength of the entire Eli Empire would not be enough to feed the bullets.

"By the way, how much do you know about the Duke of the North?"

As if thinking of something, Shen Jian asked.

"Grand Duke of the North?" Cali Trill frowned, "I don't know much, most of it is from my brother, I heard that this Grand Duke has a cold temperament, does not get close to people, never takes the initiative to make friends with other nobles, although there is a castle in the royal city, but he has not lived in it once a year. ”

"And I have heard that His Majesty intended to marry the princess to the other party, but was refused, and the Grand Duke of the North refuted His Majesty's words to his face, and turned away, and His Majesty was furious, but there was no punishment."

"When I was a clerk in the court, it was often said that the north was no different from independence, that it was almost a state, and that the royal orders could not be passed on without the permission of the Grand Duke."

Cali Triel said mysteriously.

Shen Jian was thoughtful.

The value of this information is not high, and it is basically the same as what the eldest princess said.

However, it is enough to deduce from this that the terror level of the Grand Duke of the Northern Realm is very high, and it is very likely that he is infinitely close to the World Destruction level, and even if he is about to step into the World Destruction level.

Otherwise, how could the royal family put up with a duke like this.

"What about the six princesses?"

Shen Jian said casually.

"The mystery of this is not much worse than that of the Grand Duke of the North, and the most heard is that the six princesses are naturally intelligent, and they show their edges at a very young age, but in the royal city, it is rare to see this princess, and I have seen her once when the six princesses entered the social world, she stayed quietly in the corner, and everything seemed incompatible, but at that time, His Majesty the king doted on her, and no one investigated her impolite behavior."

Hear this.

Shen Jian was surprised: "Then why did she go to the north, where the environment is the most difficult?" ”

"This is what the six princesses themselves requested, in fact, according to the normal situation, it should be Your Highness who goes to the north, but the six princesses took the initiative to ask to go to the north, so that His Highness can stay in the south."

Shen Jian looked strange.

When he learned that the environment in the north was harsh and there was an invasion of evil ghosts, he thought that this should be the belonging of the fourth prince, but he didn't expect that his guess was really right.

It's just that someone went to the north for him.

This is because he thinks that the fourth prince can't survive in the north, so he chooses to change? Or is there something about the North that attracts this naturally intelligent Six Princesses?

Shen Jian became a little curious.

……

ended the conversation.

Shen Jian opened the game panel.

The panel still stays on subquest 5, which is "Unify the South".

on this.

Shen Jian didn't pay any more attention.

The completion of the branch quest is incidental, and the main quest is the focus.

Even if the branch line stays in the "Unification of the Southern Realm" stage, it will not affect him to annex the four major realms and end the trial of fighting for the king ahead of schedule.

It's a pity that the quest rewards accumulated by completing branch quests.

But......

Compared to unlocking one of the six realms of reincarnation, this is insignificant.

It belongs to the type of tasteless food and a pity to discard.

Subsequently.

Shen Jian looked at the chat interface again.

In the past few days, there has not been much communication between Western players.

At the end of the news, it was five days ago.

A white five-star player with the ID of [Adolf] spoke, looking for players who knew how to make modern firearms, and there were quite a few responses, including six people.

Six out of 50 players know how to make modern firearms, which is just as impressive.

It shouldn't be difficult to develop a flintlock pistol, or a revolver that is more advanced than a flintlock pistol.

Think of it this way.

Shen Jian's face showed a bit of amusement.

The reason why the flintlock pistol is useful is that the bullets fired are stained with the blood of world-destroying ghosts and gods, and a few drops of his ghosts and gods are added to it, so that it has the ability to kill the top ghost king.

In fact, even if it is not a bullet, but a kitchen knife, and the wooden stick is stained with such blood, it can have the supernatural spirit of hacking the top ghost king with a knife and killing the top ghost king with a stick.

Because of this.

This group of Western players is doomed.

He wanted to see how desperate they were when they wasted time and energy to create firearms that even the Ghost King couldn't break through.

Presumably, that scene was also quite decompressing.

Pondering.

Shen Jian retracted his gaze.

I thought about it.

Walked out of the study.

I came to the bedroom upstairs.

I found the room of the princess and sister-in-law very smoothly.

"Sister-in-law, may I come in?"

Shen Jian pushed the door open.

He whispered like a thief.

Princess: ......

You came in and asked me what I was doing?

If she hadn't known that this uncle was so informal, she would have blasted the other party out a long time ago.

After all.

Breaking into a lady's room is not a gentleman's demeanor.

Not to mention that she still has a family.

"What are you doing here?"

The eldest princess said coldly.

The sound is neither salty nor light.

Shen Jian's gaze swept away.

At this time, the good sister-in-law had changed into women's clothes again, wearing a halterneck satin dress, as if she had just taken a shower, her pale skin still had some water stains, and her hair was not blow-dried, so she let her wet long hair stick to her body.

And she leaned against the window, her two milky white long legs naturally stretched out, reflecting an alluring light in the sunlight.

Beautiful but a little lonely.

Shen Jian's eyes moved.

【Princess Aniya】

[Current status: angry, aggrieved, conflicted, afraid.] 】

[Opinion: 57 (familiar)]

In Shen Jian's eyes, a different color flashed.

57 points of goodwill, which is only 3 points short of 60 points in the ambiguous stage.

This bit of goodwill, he can make up for it casually.

In other words.

Feelings are heating up, maybe at this time.

From "pure friendship" to "lip friendship".

From "gentlemen's friends" to "Guan Bao's friends".
