Chapter 219 King and King
Amber sulked in his bedroom when he saw the "guest," feeling that everyone in Gretel was against him, that his every order and every word was being ignored—he could see that these guys He was obedient and indifferent, with an expression of indifference—he really wanted to kill some people as an example, just like killing the family of the middle-aged general, "putting Gretel in danger and attracting enemies" was suppressed. Go up, everyone should have no objection, right? !
At least Amber didn't hear it. As for what others said behind their backs, they couldn't hear them anyway, right?
If you can't hear it, it doesn't exist!
Amber's life was quite smooth before, more than the best and more than the next. After leaving the society, he felt a strong loss. He used to be the darling of heaven, the child of other people, the darling of his parents and the treasure of his sisters. After graduation, he was only a 985 graduate. He was indeed ready to face the beatings of the society, but the beatings came too fast and too fast.
At this moment, he crossed over. To a certain extent, crossing is also a kind of escape. Fortunately, this escape gave him supreme power: a whole country!This is a country!So many people surrender at my feet!
... It is a little difficult now, but it is not a big problem. Such a big country will not fall down at will.
With this kind of self-comfort, Amber still maintains his debauchery, drinking and having fun with beautiful women in the depths of the palace every day. Anyway, he has already arranged the order, "clear the walls and clear the fields", "store rations", "strengthen patrols", and the other party went on an expedition. In the future, it must be a tired army. Isn't this kind of measure taken for granted?
Elementary school students know it.
"It's not that I'm entering the city, don't bother me!" Amber gave such an order.
However, a person just walked in and sat down opposite Amber without saying a word. He stared blankly at the glowing figure, and the first reaction in his mind was: NPC?
No wonder Amber would think so, and Cecil would think so too if he saw it. A human figure with a glowing silhouette really looks like a game NPC, which made him think "is this all a game?"
The person who came was an old man, with a well-known face in China, old and full of wisdom, with small eyes smiling: "You don't know me?"
"Should I know?" Amber suddenly realized something, "You speak Chinese?"
"What are you, you!" God of Agriculture said angrily, "Why is your grandson not polite at all?"
"You are the fucking grandson!" Amber was furious, "Who do you say is the grandson?"
"Hey, I can be your ancestor regardless of my age or status!" The god of agriculture actually laughed angrily, "Why? Dissatisfied? Know who I am, are you here to spread the word?"
Saturn slapped the table, and an invisible shock wave spread out and knocked Amber to one side. He stared blankly at the old man in front of him, and after a long time, he whispered: "You... who are you?"
"I'm your ancestor!" God of Agriculture scolded first, then frowned and said angrily, "Your grandson is far worse than the other one. You are so arrogant that you don't even know your last name! I am the God of Civilization." , the god of agriculture in Chinese civilization!"
Amber knew the concept of the God of Civilization, but only a superficial understanding, and she didn't even know the concept of the God of Civilization being able to travel between the two worlds.
Amber stayed like a fool for a while, and suddenly burst out laughing: "Hahaha, what are you farting? What about Chinese civilization, and I'm not on the earth... What's the matter? God has also timed after man time-traveled? No? , wait a minute, this world has gods and the earth has no gods, nonsense!"
The god of agriculture has already made a decision at this moment, this product is hopeless, but Amber's words aroused his interest: "Why? You don't believe that there is a god on earth?"
"What a fart, there is no real record for so many years!" Amber squinted and said with a vigilant face, "Which mage did you create the spell? It's very powerful, even a little mana can Undetectable."
"According to the laws of the earth, we can't appear, and this is not the earth." Saturn explained, "Besides, I'm already in front of you, speaking Chinese, with Yuan Longping's face, so you don't believe it?"
"I don't believe it!" Amber rolled her eyes. "I don't believe it because I am Chinese. Chinese people are all pragmatists!"
The god of agriculture laughed: "It's the other way around. Chinese people don't believe in God because they haven't seen God with their own eyes. If they see God, they will believe it. This is Chinese pragmatism! Then I will ask again, even if You don’t believe me when I’m in front of you? Don’t you even think I’m a god of civilization?”
"Believe it or not!" Amber said impatiently, "I won't believe you if you tell me a hundred times! Why did you come here? What's your purpose?"
"No purpose." The God of Agriculture chuckled, stood up and said, "Then I'm leaving, goodbye."
Like a cut, the god of agriculture disappeared in front of Amber's eyes. He looked around, and everything was as usual, as if nothing had happened.
"What the hell?" Amber muttered in a low voice, "Lochel? No, you know my details, the second chair in the Middle Kingdom, right?"
The above is why Cecil received a fierce and irritable letter. It was sent through the Griffin, written in Chinese, and it was not named, but it was easy to tell who it was from the content.
"Saturn went to Gretel?" Cecil only focused on this one point, "Damn it, why don't you come to my place?"
"Aren't I here?" As soon as the words fell, an old and lazy voice sounded from the corner, and the God of Saturn stood up slowly with a small black leather bag in his arms, "It's better to be your grandson, why is that guy so rude?" irritable?"
"Yo, you're here?" Cecil said in surprise, "Then our god ancestor is coming too?"
"There's no such good thing." Saturn sighed, "I came because I noticed something."
As soon as he said this, Cecil immediately thought of the nightmare, and hurriedly said it. The god of agriculture listened to it kindly, and said: "It is indeed a scientific law."
"I knew it!" Cecil patted his thigh, "What is it for?"
The god of agriculture stared at him: "You are stupid! You are still fooled by the examples of those mages in front of you? Don't pay attention to the law, just do what you want, and follow your own line unswervingly, understand? The more you guess the intention of the law, the more you will waste your energy, and it will only make you fall into self-doubt."
Cecil struggled and said: "But I always feel that there is something on my mind, which makes me uncomfortable."
"Think about something else, you have nothing else to do now?"
When the god of agriculture asked such a question, Cecil suddenly remembered and slapped his thigh: "Do you know how to make vulcanized rubber?"
"I don't know." Saturn said calmly, "Next."
Cecil: "..."
"No more?" Seeing that Cecil's expression was wrong, Saturn said angrily, "I am Saturn, why should I know what to do with rubber?"
"Then use your mobile phone to look it up!" Cecil said reluctantly, "Just give me some directions. I know a vulcanized rubber, but I don't know the specific sulfur!"
"The price to pay for such a long-distance network is not small!" Nong Shen said, "You pay?"
Cecil swallowed the sentence "I'll pay" and asked guiltily, "What price?"
"Human life." Saturn said, "How much are you going to pay?"
Cecil said unfairly: "You didn't say you would pay for the last time you used it for us!"
"The last time I used the red envelope benefits for the first time!" Said the god of agriculture loudly, "I have been giving you benefits all the time, and I gave you money?!"
Cecil: "..."
The two chatted for a long time, and it was full of trivial matters. The god of agriculture didn't have a clear instruction on the current situation, or there was an inexplicable ambiguity.
"Since you said you came here after you noticed something, what are you going to do after you come here?" Cecil turned the topic back to the right path.
"Look what happened, now I know." God of Agriculture frowned and said, "I'll let you know in advance, if it's really like what we guessed, there is a quarrel between laws, this place will not Had a good time."
"What will happen?" Cecil asked curiously.
"Maybe your body suddenly rots while you're walking. Strictly speaking, you shouldn't exist if you don't have a thermal reaction. Human beings are constant temperature creatures." Saturn snorted, "Or, half of the magic is used to cast it on yourself. Now, I was going to be extremely powerful and become extremely weak. There are few obvious movements in the law struggle, you can't see the explosion or the fire, and some are just distorted and changing laws, which is very annoying!"
Hearing this description, Cecil trembled in his heart, and he couldn't think of a way to deal with it for a long time. It seemed that it was really the same as Saturn said: don't worry about it, just do what you should do.
The development of rubber is more difficult than Cecil imagined. He remembers that vulcanized rubber is not a particularly advanced and complicated reaction, but the progress of the research center has not been smooth. Leading, assisted by the Institute of Thermal Weapons, Helen and Luther reacted and asked him what kind of sulfur, what kind of sulfur, what nature, etc., he couldn't answer at all.
"I don't know!" Cecil cried, pulling his cheeks with both hands, "I really don't know!"
"How could you not know!" Luther yelled, "This is the name you called out, vulcanized rubber, why do you know the name but don't know how to do it!"
"If you don't know, you don't know!" Cecil ran away, "Don't ask me——"
Cecil ran all the way to the square on the third ring road before stopping. After the rebuilding of the second and first ring roads, the buildings became taller, more refined, and correspondingly denser. The third ring road was much wider, with many squares and In the park, many people wanted to move here, but he didn't plan to approve residential land here.
Langdon is very busy, so Cecil's bodyguards in the city are Guangshu and the "false queen". Basically, this kind of power is enough. Thanks to the population registration policy that costs a lot of magic, Moon City can do it Know everyone's identity.
Cecil sat down at the edge of a flower bed, with his back against a beautifully manicured shrub, the result of the Department of Urban Gardens, a new department that had benefited from Langdon's selection policy, and in this respect It was a great help and an indispensable help for him.
"Excuse me, are you His Majesty the Central King?" A timid voice sounded, "Is that you?"
Cecil turned his head and saw a little girl looking over. She was dressed as if she had just entered the city. The tattered sackcloth could not resist the cold at all in this season. As long as she worked in Moon City for a while, she would definitely change it this season. Cotton clothes are put on, and fur outside is enough to withstand the cold winter of this grassland.
Neither Guangshu nor the "false queen" said anything, which meant that the visitor was not threatening. Cecil smiled and said, "Yes, who are you?"
"Dad!" The little girl yelled, and she hugged Cecil with her arms, "Dad!"
Just when Cecil was glad that Langdon wasn't there, the big cat's voice sounded behind him: "Messer?"
"Dad!" The little girl named Messer let go of Cecil, turned around and rushed towards Langdon, with a surprised smile on her face, "Dad, I'm here to find you!"
Langdon quietly stepped aside, Messer jumped to the ground and fell to the ground, she got up with a weeping expression on her face, Cecil hurried over to help her up, her head was foggy Shui said: "You have to give me an explanation!"
Langdon sighed: "Family drama." Seeing Cecil glaring over, he added, "The kind that is worse than yours."
Cecil never expected that when the battle between Rochester and Gretel was on the verge of breaking out, what he was facing was a family drama at eight o'clock.
Langdon's civilization was extinct. It was a small civilization. Because of his abnormal lifespan, his parents and relatives also disappeared long ago. However, his branch survived miraculously.
"Have you ever given birth to a child?" Hearing this, Cecil asked in shock.
"No." Langdon said solemnly, "When I left home, my parents married me a wife..."
"Wait a minute." Cecil stopped Langdon, "How did you get a wife when you weren't home?"
"This is a kind of substitution. My brother married this wife for me. They gave birth to a child, and then they continued to reproduce, like this." Langdon said helplessly, "These people, I mean what I call The wife, parents, and brothers have all passed away, but their branch is still alive, this..." He pointed to Messer, "it should be my great-grandson and niece."
"Why did she call you Papa?"
"Because my native language doesn't have any titles above daddy, so the children call their elders daddy." Langdon said, "You can also speak my native language."
If you think about it carefully, it really is.
Cecil finally let go of the hand covering his chest, looked at the little girl playing not far away, and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"Don't deal with it, she is an ordinary Moon City resident, that's all." Langdon said, "Her last name is different from mine, and, don't mind, there are five children like her."
The more Cecil heard it, the more something was wrong, and he pondered for a while and said, "How do you know so clearly?"
Langdon sighed again, and said in a low voice: "They sent a letter after the battle of the gods, and they should have found me at that time. Before that, I was not very famous in the Gay Knights. Others only knew that Langdon Chris , will not be connected with me, I revealed the prototype during the battle of the gods."
"God War?!" Cecil's eyes widened, "That was several years ago!"
"Yes." Langdon's tone was filled with reassurance, "But they only recently arrived in Moon City, and that's it, it's not a big deal..."
Cecil prevented Langdon from approaching, and said coldly, "What else are you hiding from me?"
"No, absolutely not...!" Langdon's small pause was very disturbing. "I just don't want to bother you with these old things."
It has to be said that there is something special about flattering big cats, and Cecil was not sure whether to use this opportunity to win some sweetness of close contact. This kind of thinking disappeared when he met a "big family".
It was a sunny morning, and Alexander had just come to discuss with Cecil some big talk about the "state of the world," such as "There are too many countries in Roye Bay, so let's reduce it," or "Do you like the other side? Maybe The Middle Kingdom should build a city across the way", ending the weary conversation with Cecil's "When will you go".
Cecil was about to approve some documents to catch his breath when Guangshu came in and said, "Your Majesty, your daughter has come to look for you, uh, there are a lot of people, a lot."
Cecil: "..."
The actual number is 23. After years of reproduction, Langdon's mother clan has spread out. It has to be said that this has benefited from years of world peace.The scene of a group of people running in to salute is too messy, not to mention a completely unknown person saying: "Dear Your Majesty the Central King, would you like to give your daughter some assistance in life?"
"No." Cecil said coldly, "She's not my daughter."
"Langdon is married to you, isn't he?" the man asked in surprise, as if he didn't understand why Cecil rejected the proposal so definitely, "I heard that's the case, isn't the king's cavalry belong to you? Then, Langdon's daughter is also your daughter, you can't ignore it!"
Cecil put his hands over his face and tried to escape the scene, but fortunately, Langdon came quickly to throw the man out, and then stuck to him to make amends for a long time.Logically speaking, this matter should stop here, but within a few days, the news that "the princess is living outside" began to circulate in Yuecheng.
"I heard that you have a princess?" Alexander asked with a strange smile. After finishing speaking, he heard Wagner whisper a few words and added, "More than one? How many princes?"
"No, I didn't." Cecil said wearily, and he didn't even have the spirit to fight.
"Aren't you going to have some children?" Alexander said with a gossiping expression, "Who will inherit your kingdom in the future?"
"When the time comes, I'm still young!" Cecil said weakly, "What are you waiting for?"
"My soldiers have brought a lot of business to Moon City, why do you have to drive me away?" Alexander put on a puzzled expression, "Or if there is something wrong with me, I can correct it. "
Cecil: "...I know it's not for me to ask, but what's your policy with Gretel?"
"Of course, attack, attack and attack again." Alexander said naturally, "What's the problem?"
Just as Cecil was about to speak, Guangshu suddenly poked his head in and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, your...uh, those kids are here, and they keep pushing in, saying that they won't leave unless you don't see them."
Cecil: "..."
What the hell did I do?
At night, Cecil lay on the bed and didn't want to move. When he felt a hand on his back, he said coldly: "I want to sleep with the cat all winter."
The hand stopped moving, and then slid down the spine. Langdon's voice sounded ambiguously in his ears: "Of course, my lord, as you wish."
In any case, the thermostat fur blanket for the whole winter was quite comfortable, at least it was not in vain for him to go through these messy things.
This ambiguous situation ended when the "golden tax collectors" attacked Algiers. Looking back, Cecil had no idea when and how these people arrived on the other side. While wandering harmlessly around like a husky, three thousand "golden tax collectors" made their way to the opposite side of Loye Bay, and then across the barren wilderness to Yargi.
Arge, which has experienced multiple damages, has no protective ability at all. Although Amber repaired part of the cityscape and city walls for Arge after Gallagher II arrived, the Might and Magic Gate was not activated, and manpower protection was completely insufficient. Only a small number of patrols tackle day-to-day policing issues.
The "Golden Tax Officer" moved very quickly. More than 100 people disguised themselves as the commodity delivery team of Moon City—yes, Yarji is still buying commodities from the Middle Kingdom, such as soap, paper, cosmetics, and clothes. One thing is to repair the Might and Magic Gate. After it was activated in the middle of the night, three thousand "golden tax officials" went straight to the city, first killed the patrol team, and then imprisoned the experimental mage. As for the "Tambunita King" in the palace , they didn't even look at it.
According to the testimonies of the mages who were imprisoned by Gretel, Alexander knew all of Gretel's arrangements in Tanbunita. In the next half month, the "gold tax collectors" were invincible, like a branch Arrows drove out the Gerrits everywhere, and even killed a few princesses. When the time came to the end of November, when the cold wind was howling, Alexander, who was enjoying the central heating in Moon City, happily showed Cecil the upcoming release. Announcement throughout the territory: The Lord of Evil who stole the authority of Tambunita has been expelled, and the "golden tax collectors" will end the battle in Tambuneta and return the glory to Gallagher II.
"What's the benefit of doing this?" After sending Alexander away, Cecil immediately convened a royal cavalry meeting, "Wasting money to fight?"
"The 'golden tax collectors' evacuated the palace in Algiers." Wagner lazily said, "There is nothing left in every city and every place. Your fellow townsman's vision is not very good, and I don't understand him very well. They actually left most of the palace’s stuff for Gallagher II, it seems like they moved some big things but left a lot of small things.”
"What did Alexander move?" Cecil asked.
"The entire palace," Langdon said.
"what?"
"The palace of Algiers is made of a special material. The magic will be greatly increased in the palace. It is very valuable. The 'Golden Taxation Officer' is good at combat magic. The protective power left by Gretel is not enough to resist They, after the battle they dismantled the whole palace."
Cecil was shocked and said, "Small it up and take it away? Can they finish it?"
"They hired people from the Middle Kingdom." Langdon said angrily, "During this period, the residents of the Middle Kingdom have indeed made a lot of money, Alexander has not lost money, and has gained a huge reputation. As for Amber... I don't know where he moved. However, the experimental mages in Algiers lost a lot, not only their money, but also their people. These people were all brought back to Los Angeles by Alexander. It is said that they wanted to atone for their sins, basically as slaves. gone."
"Then the gold tax officials left?" Cecil asked.
"Winter is not suitable for fighting." Wagner imitated Alexander's tone, "We are leaving for Los Angeles tomorrow."
Cecil was stunned for a while, and said, "So Alexander never wanted to attack Gretel from the beginning?"
"Almost." Wagner laughed, "He didn't even want to occupy the land."
Cecil murmured, "I still feel a bit at a loss..."
"Luoxie arrested more than 4000 experimental mages in Algis, all of them were mages, including the materials and devices they brought to Algis. I don't understand how those people took things there with confidence. That's not Their country." Wagner said doubtfully, "It's not a loss after all, and more importantly, he put Gretel in a difficult situation."
"how?"
"Should Amber send someone to 'help' Gallagher II?" Wagner made a quotation mark around his head with two fingers. This is what the royal knights learned from Cecil, "Luo The Xie people simply left, and the Grete people want to occupy Algi again? Then their reputation as invaders will be confirmed."
"But, if Alexander did this, won't people think that Luoxie is weak?" Cecil didn't understand. "Didn't you say that such a thing would happen? The Luoxie branch was wiped out."
Just as Wagner was about to speak, Guangshu poked his head in again.
"If it's those kids, get rid of them!" Cecil said first.
"No." Guangshu said with some embarrassment, "Great just issued an announcement that the attack on the Luoxie branch country was completely a traitor's private act. Peace."
Wagner snapped his fingers: "The next thing is Luoxie's announcement."
Cecil compared the contents of the two notices, and couldn't help cursing: "Damn!"
Alexander the little fox!
