Chapter 518: Intelligence

In this way, Siegel meets Vicky, the intelligence director of the Starry Kingdom, a middle-aged man with outstanding appearance and gray hair.

At first glance, Wiki looks more like a bohemian and frequented court ball, or troubadour. His slightly aged appearance did not make him less attractive, but rather increased his charm, especially for young women, who could satisfy their diverse preferences at the same time. His eyes are always hard to focus, and you can't tell what direction he's looking at, or he's always looking in all directions. Even in the presence of His Majesty the King, Vicky saluted with a view of all corners of the house.

"This is Marquis Siegel Squid, the new military governor of the Imperial Council. Wiki, Director of Intelligence. "Evan's presentation was very simple.

"Wiki, is this the full name?" Siegel immediately asked.

"The villain has no surname, Monsieur Marquis, only Wiki. In fact, who my parents are is perhaps the biggest secret in the world, and I have spent thirty years searching for it without getting an answer. "His voice was unusually hoarse, and it was unforgettable.

"What about after you find it?" Siegel asked.

"Depends on ......" Vicky tilted his head at the king and marquis, "depending on the reason why they abandoned me." ”

"Well, let's not talk about it," said the king, who had been an illegitimate child for more than twenty years, and the marquis, who also had no parents, and said to Evan, "I need the hounds to assemble and be ready to rescue." You go to find underwear for three children, swaddling clothes are the best. Do you have any portraits of the parrots?"

"Yes. Your Majesty. This can be done in less than an hour. ”

"I leave you in the hands of the Marquis of Siegel. If I know later, let him know. Haven't you been strapped for money? I've handed over the richest man on the continent to you. ”

"Your Majesty, Lord Marquis Siegel is not the richest," Vikki's hoarse voice continued, "he is the most profitable. ”

The legend of 200 million gold coins still circulates among mercenaries and adventurers, and it is becoming more and more colorful, just like the real thing. In fact, Heim's vault had only started to slowly accumulate after the construction of the Starrope, but it had not been able to cover the floor now. And even if Siegel hadn't built a magic ship, he shouldn't have that much money.

Wiki received the order and turned around and left. The action is very crisp. After the door closed, Siegel asked, "Can this person be trusted?"

Evan nodded, then picked up a piece of cake from a nearby plate and gulped it down.

It seems that the king still trusts him, otherwise he would not have taken food in a room where the spy leader had been alone. In addition to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Military Governor, and the Intelligence Chief, the Royal Council was formed by Duke Carlyle Stars, who was in charge of royal affairs, Marquis Mottley Clive, who was in charge of foreign affairs, and Baron Norris Nelson, Secretary of State for Architecture. "Master Liel, as an advisor to the Academy, does not attend the council and speaks directly to me. The High Priest of Aurora of the Temple of Dawn sometimes attends the Imperial Council. But he doesn't have the right to advise, at most he comes to bother me. Evan rinsed his mouth with juice. As if he had figured out something: "I say this as if I were serving the Imperial Council." Tell me, I'm the king, right?"

"I'm not anyway. Siegel rolled his eyes and shrugged his shoulders in frustration.

"You can still talk back, yes, yes. Evan wiped his lips and walked over to the large table in the middle of the Strategy Room and pulled the cloth off it. A beautiful map of the Starry Kingdom is carved on a bronze tabletop and depicts the topography of the mountains. Some small flags made of magnets can be used as the logo of the castle, and by the way, you can also draw the coat of arms of each family. The level of detail of this map is not far from William's, but it should be more accurate than that.

The position of the Star Castle is not a flag of a magnet, but a bronze badge of the Kingdom of Stars, symbolizing the eternal death of royal power. And more than 2,700 miles to the east of the Star Fort, a yellow flag marked "Goblin" was extremely eye-catching.

"That's what worries me all day, kingdom and goblins. Evan said sourly, "You still have time to build a magic spaceship, but I even have to practice swordsmanship in the study." So, you have to help me take the pressure off, I don't want to die of exhaustion at a young age. ”

"I'll try. Siegel nodded. He looked at the goblin banner and thought about his conversation with Riele in the other world. After hesitating for a while, he decided to confess to Evan and the plate. About the true strength of the Earth, the military and political formations of the goblins, the situation of their own confrontation with them, and the fact that they were destroyed.

"Nuclear weapons are the equivalent of a mage's legendary-level spell, and it's still quite amazingly powerful. In terms of destructive power alone, I think even the Sage of the God of War is not as powerful as a nuclear bomb, and this weapon Goblin can be mass-produced. Siegel sighed: "No one can survive that blow without magic, or without relying on the power of the rules." The only good news is that the goblins can't come for the time being, otherwise it will be difficult for any knight to fight against the number and firepower of the goblins, except for a few powerful spellcasters. If it weren't for the Astral Projection Spell, I wouldn't have dared to go over and fight them. After all, a nuclear bomb is a consumable, but the archmage is not. ”

Of course, there are many things that Siegel doesn't need to know about in Siegel's story, such as the fact that the Star Rope is an intelligent magical creature, a Void Cannon and an array of electromagnetic cannons, a large area of tranquility, and a circle of rage. These things will only distract His Majesty and ignore the more crucial facts.

"What you said, Xuecheng has submitted a detailed report to me, which is roughly the same. Evan patted the bronze map lightly and said worriedly, "I already know that what you said before is true, so I will leave this matter to you completely." Wouldn't it be like a blind man if he only relied on the information of the school's past to carry out this war? Their news is so slow that it has almost no reference value, and only you can say a word! But as you mentioned earlier, it's not impossible to destroy the goblins, right?"

Siegel nodded, wouldn't it be cruel if he didn't add some hope at this time. "The goblins haven't found a way to get over yet, and if we continue to fight them, it's only a matter of time before we win. Now it is the Sages who can ensure that the goblins are stopped, and the humans do not have Sages in this regard. I wonder if the God of Dawn can help?"

Evan smiled bitterly: "I am now the Sage of the Dawn God, and I have no name but no ability." The only good thing is that it's hard to hack to death, but there's not much I can do to fend off the goblins - except to go into battle with a sword. ”

It is basically impossible to descend two saints at the same time, and even opening your mouth can be saved. The rest of the God of War Temple, if there were saints, might have been fought over a long time ago, and it would not be enough to clean up the mess. The Temple of Mother Earth has never descended on a saint, and their priests devote a great deal of divine power to healing the sick, regulating the weather, and promoting a good harvest, and there is probably not much left. However, the Temple of Mother Earth is worth asking, and there may be a miracle.

"The school city said that the Elves and Mages Association has a plan in progress, and I have checked the information in the library of the school city, and it may be released soon. Evan told him, "You have to take care of this plan for me, and I trust your wisdom." ”

The position he took over was not a good job, never was, but Siegel had a better influence on the situation than Lord Heim in the position of military governor. He stood at the table, staring at the bronze map, and Evan sat on the side, eating his own snack. Although nothing has been solved yet, Evan suddenly feels a lot lighter.

After a while, Viki came back with a big stride "knock knock". He was fast, but there was no sweat on his head, and he was obviously very good in terms of physical fitness and martial arts. So his loud footsteps were made on purpose?

"Your Majesty, Lord Marquis, the hounds are ready, waiting in the outer hall. He unwrapped a cloth from behind his back, "Inside are the belongings of three babies, and no one has touched them directly with their hands for insurance." ”

"Thank you for being attentive. Siegel said to Evan, "Would you like to go and see it?"

"Well, I've rarely seen you cast spells, just in time to open your eyes. "Evan is very interested.

"The entire palace is forbidden to fly, stealth, and teleportation spells, is there any place where I can cast spells? I don't want to forcibly destroy your magic circle here. ”

"Forcibly destroy, whoa, can you do that?!" Evan suddenly became more excited. Viki coughed and brought His Majesty back to his senses: "I'll show the forced part later." I'll take you somewhere where you can cast spells normally. ”

Being able to teleport outwards meant being able to teleport in as well, and Evan's decision was a sign of trust. The group went deep underground until they reached the dungeon of the Star Castle. It was full of vacant cells, and it smelled of clammy cold.

"Not kidding, can the dungeon be teleported in? Isn't it easy for the prisoner to be rescued if it is closed?" Siegel looked at the scene in front of him, and only felt that his teeth hurt.

"It's because countless people have tried to use teleportation to come in and save people, so the magical defenses here have been destroyed. Evan took it for granted: "I won't be holding any prisoners here, at least not for long." But teleporting out and teleporting in are two different things, and it's still very safe here. That's what Salk told me, I don't quite understand, maybe you can explain it to me in a moment?"

"Okay, I'll locate the three of them first. Wiki, help me move a table, a chair, I need a platform to put things. ”

"Willing to help. "The strength of the intelligence director is not small, and the thick square table is easily brought over, and when it is placed on the ground, there is no sound, and it seems to be at ease.

Siegel also used magic to sweep the ground around him, and then used silver dust to depict a magic circle on the ground. Evan stood aside holding a torch, and Wiki hurried over to pick it up.

At the same time, Vicky gestured to his men, and immediately a hound took off his black cloak and handed it over. "Your Majesty, it's cold and humid here, so put on this. ”

"Okay, when Salk retires, I think you can take over this job for him. Evan smiled and took his cloak and put it on. (To be continued.) )
