Chapter 409: The Legendary Temptation, and the Secret Decisive Battle Weapon
(12 points)
The fear of trouble among the members of the Harris family is well known, and it seems that this kind of laughing and crying personality will be passed down from generation to generation. Thanks to it, Kerberg has the fewest number of lords' guards on the continent, the lowest business tax rate (since it is also a hassle to find ways to add exorbitant taxes), the most liberal and romantic atmosphere, and the most ineffective barriers...... This doesn't count.
But to everyone's surprise, even with such unscrupulous management, Kerberg thrived, and even the smuggling and black market that should have been rampant under lax supervision did not appear. Even some of the smaller countries around the area, which planned to take advantage of their lack of armaments, to get some oil and water in the territory of Kerburg and run away, failed to take advantage of it, and in the end they were beaten back with a blue nose and swollen face.
The power of the Harris family at the helm is also evident - although it is only a piece of cake for a certain shaky god who controls loli everywhere.
Obviously, Alicia Harris also has this extraordinary talent and a natural fear of trouble, so Elena, who is known for her seriousness, took the little Lori who was lying on the sofa and refused to get up in her hands, and persuaded her for about half an hour with full aura. And the end result was that the two senior admirals in the room walked out sweating and their legs were weak, and as for Alicia, she naturally ignored this drizzle after seeing countless winds and waves.
Elena could only give up on this, and let the little Lori bounce out of the living room and into the nearby tea room.
Mai Trin and the others, who had left before Alicia in Mangla, were leisurely passing the time inside.
"Ah, Alicia, are the talks over?". Zuotian Tears raised his hand and beckoned to Little Lori and said, "It's just in time, let's try the cake made by Maria." It's so delicious!"
Sister Pao, who was holding Erlang's legs with both hands and contemplating with her hands on her side, was obviously not as optimistic as Hei Changzhi, and she hurriedly asked after Xiao Lori sat down: "Now, Elicia, you don't hesitate to let Yelena show up and tie those two guys back for this kind of unfriendly consultation, who are they?"
Alicia replied as she cut the cake, "Sister Mai Trin, you know that Kerburg is a coastal province with many excellent ports, and countless merchant ships come and go every day. We only have so many troops, what do you think would happen if an enemy fleet full of soldiers landed in the rear harbor while facing the large forces of the George family on the front line?"
Hatsuharu, who was plucking fresh petals from his head (you can see how strange this narrative is) and adding them to the tea to make flower tea on the spot, asked a little worriedly, "What if the other side sends those angels? ”
"Rest assured, early spring, maybe Donaldson would choose to do this, but his daddy, Joseph, would never be. Elysia took a bite of the cake and put up her fork in relief after smiling happily on her lovely face, "Exposing the Angel Legion to its own orders too soon will only put the George family in a disadvantageous position when they are not on the firm footing, so I guess they will not use this force until they are completely unified with Birea - well, they will definitely use it when we beat them back and see that they are about to fail." ”
The petite double-ponytailed Lily who was sitting next to Mai Trin elegantly lifted the tea set and put it to her lips, sipping it and said, "It's really calm." Not to mention the difference in military strength between the enemy and us, and now that the matter of Lord Sword Saint here has been exposed, aren't you afraid that the other party will come to attack as soon as they get the news?"
“...... Don't deliberately look like a nobleman, Shirai. The silver cutlery you hid in your sleeve was exposed, and it was shining in the sun, hey!" Alysia did not hesitate to point at Shirai Kuroko, who was scrambling to hide the stolen goods, and shouted, "Where is Maria, catch this thief for me, tie him up and sell it to the Qinglou to compensate for the loss!"
In the end, both of them were rewarded with a smiling healing maid who knocked out a red envelope on their heads.
"Okay, let's get back to what we left off. Alicia gently rubbed the still smoking bag above her head and said, "Actually, even if I don't tie Francis and them back, I will deliberately let Aunt Yelena show her face in the outside world." As you don't know, on my way back to Kerberg, I met the aforementioned Ilya and the others, which is why I came back a day later than scheduled. Well, in that critical situation, it's understandable that something like fire happens between young boys and girls who are already attracted to each other, right?
With the exception of Shirai, whose skin was as cheeky as the city wall, the faces of the other three little girls in the room were as red as ripe apples, and Maria immediately walked to the door, as if she was going to leave the room to do some kind of work.
"Uh, Maria, are you going to make red bean rice?" Alicia asked, embarrassed, "At this time, you should have lifted my skirt to check the authenticity! Why did you simply believe it?"
"I didn't believe it. Mary paused and said, "So I'm going to use this as an excuse to prepare for your wedding, Miss." ”
"Did that guy Ilya secretly bribe you in private, hey!" Alicia, who was beaten by a god-level counterattack from her own maid, could only raise her hand and surrender, "I'm sorry I was wrong, I shouldn't have deliberately lost the discipline." Sister tears, don't cover your face, the Gongkou incident you imagined never happened at all. Actually, I just asked Ilya and them to help spread the false news that Elena is dead in the Roland Empire to meet Sophia in person. ”
Mai Trin couldn't help but be very strange when she heard this: "What do you mean by this?"
"Think about it. Generally speaking, no one would make such a big joke about the future queen of the Roland Empire in an official meeting, so the news of Yelena's death is mostly true, and only two days later, there were rumors that someone had seen Yelena, what would you think if it were you?"
Mai Trinat's face was full of sudden realization: "I will think that this is a false news deliberately made up by the Harris family, and the purpose is to confuse their own side to delay time, so that they can fully prepare for the battle!
With a nonchalant expression on her face, Alicia continued to cut the cake and said, "I just want the other party to do this." Now that the George family has just suppressed most of the country's territory and has not yet had time to consolidate its rule, if in the name of crusading against the rebellion, other lords who have submitted to it under strong pressure are gathered to attack the seemingly ill-prepared Kerberg in a vain attempt to annihilate the aftermath in one fell swoop, if I let Elena show up and explain the real situation, I must have a very interesting scene, right?
Mai Qin was silent for a while, then decisively patted little Lori's shoulder and said, "Sometimes I really wonder how the four of us became intimate friends with you, an out-and-out black-bellied person. ”
Shirai immediately said to the side: "No, sister-sama. It is obvious from the fact that Yin's enemies have come to attack her own territory that Alyssia is actually a temptation!"
"Get out——!! you are a perverted woman who has never repented when you are beaten by electricity every day, you are the real sufferer!"
There was a knock at the door. Maria glanced at her own eldest lady, Mikoto and Shirai, who were making a mess on the sofa, and Tears and Hatsuharu, who were trying to pull the frame next to her, and shook her head helplessly and walked over.
The person standing outside was Boan, who was first attracted by the frolicking of the girls in the house, and when he wanted to peek in, Maria took a decisive cough and scared him back, and said weakly with a crunched neck: "That, is the eldest lady there?" ...,
"She's there. What's the matter, is it urgent?"
"The goblin patriarch Arad has something important to see the eldest lady, so he is waiting outside. ”
Alicia's voice came from the room, "Bring him here, Uncle Boan." Also, continue to keep an eye on the movements of the George family, and keep me informed of any situation. It's been a hard time for you. ”
A few minutes later, an old male goblin who was as short as Remy and quite old, but still in good spirits, stood in front of Alicia and the others.
"Hello, Miss Harris, you've become more beautiful after half a year's absence. Arad bowed respectfully to Alicia and said, "Thank you so much that our races are now living a life of abundance!"
Alicia interrupted him with a wave of her hand, "I'm not a businessman, Arad, so don't say such polite words. If you have nothing to do, what are you here for today?"
"I know that the situation you are facing is very difficult. Arad suddenly changed his face to a frenzied expression, and the frightened Hatsuharu hurriedly fell into the arms of the tears, "But we goblins are not the kind of race that do not repay the wind and rudder, so I have excellent news for you today." We've already developed a replica of the thing you handed me last time!"
Alicia stared at the old goblin suspiciously, until he went from inexplicable to sweating, and then said, "You can't make the kind of thing that will drop parts in less than three minutes, overload in five minutes, and explode in twenty minutes, right?"
Arad was suddenly embarrassed, his face changed red and white for a while, and then he inhaled hard and said, "No, I can pack a ticket for the results of this time." Because it was designed and supervised by my scientists and your family's alchemists. ”
"Is it true that it was done at such a critical moment?" Alysia laughed happily this time, "I was just going to use it to pass the time for you goblins who like to tear things down all day long, but I didn't expect it to be unintentionally planted in the willows." However, with only half a year, will it be too short?"
"Well, that's true. Therefore, there are only conventional weapons on the imitation, and powerful weapons on the body...... Sorry, we haven't analyzed it yet. ”
"Even so, it's enough for well-trained soldiers to use against the Angel Legion. Alicia clenched her fist hard and ignited, "Wait, Donaldson, I'll crush your family's ambitions once and for all!"
