With the coming of winter, the mainland gradually became calmer. Beeri led the Death Roaring Legion to once again enter the mercenary country. The soldiers were in the southeast of the Alison Empire, eyeing the enemy, and the northern army of the Mao Empire also came to the scene. General mobilization threatens the southwest of the Alison Empire. In fact, everyone knows that by the beginning of the next spring, the Mayo Empire will definitely launch attacks on two fronts at the same time, and the unification of the entire continent is inevitable.
In this situation of absolute disadvantage, the Allison Empire's countermeasures seemed feeble. Apart from frantically expanding its army and constantly sending envoys to try to negotiate with the Mayo Empire, there was no way to reverse or alleviate the situation.
The core members of the major alliance are scattered all over the country. Although they have temporarily lost news about Anfei, they are more united than before. One is because they have gradually matured, and the other is because they have a more ambitious ideal and a higher level. pursuit.
Chris Ding rushed back to the Holy City with Entos, Bravi, Zubin and others. Chris Ding did not forget An Fei's words and deliberately kept a low profile after returning to the Holy City. Even if he did not argue, his contribution was the greatest. , no one can obliterate it. If we start to retaliate at this time, it will be too aggressive.
An Fei seized a large number of magic crystals from the Flash Sand Empire that day. He occupied the Diamond City and the Royal Palace, and the magic crystals seized from the Super Mage Tower and the Palace Treasury were even more amazing. Although Beeri took away two-thirds, but The remaining magic crystals are enough for them to squander for a few years. Entos used magic crystals to set up three medium-sized magic teleportation arrays. One is in Diamond City, one is in Sol's house, and one is in White Mountain City. The leaders of the three regions, Chris Ding, Alice, and Anthony, communicate with each other through the teleportation array every day. Exchange information with each other, and if there is an emergency, they can even send it directly.
This is a teleportation magic circle that is independent of the Mao Empire's magic teleportation system. Its nature is very sensitive. However, Julande has always remained silent on this. However, several ministers wrote a letter to impeach Chris Ding, but in the end nothing happened. . \\\
Anthony is in charge of the mercenary country, after taking refuge in An Fei. Anthony's performance has been lackluster, without any eye-catching highlights. He even retreated to the second line and let his son David take his place. However, he just sized up the situation and hid his edge. Because the leadership system of the major league has taken shape, the sharper its edge is, the more acute the conflicts will be.
Now that An Fei trusts him and has given him the responsibility of the entire mercenary country, Anthony no longer has any scruples. His methods are more cruel than An Fei's at that time, on the first day after returning to the mercenary country. Anthony announced that the Glory Mercenary Group had officially become a part of the Grand Alliance. After communicating with Chris Ding and Alice, he tried every means to bring out Marino, the former leader of the Brotherhood Alliance Mercenary Group who had been reclusive, and let Marino serve as the third member of the Grand Alliance. Three Archons.
Anthony was very generous to the mercenaries who took the initiative to seek refuge, and at the same time deliberately suppressed those large and small mercenary groups that tried to remain neutral. However, for those unconvinced mercenary groups, no matter how big or small, Anthony first made accusations, and then he was ruthless. Ground killing.
Maybe it's because An Fei's big alliance has created a momentum that those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish. Perhaps because Anthony's actions were too brutal, the free and unorganized mercenary group was completely changed. In just a few months, nearly 200,000 mercenaries gathered under the banner of the Grand Alliance.
Mercenaries are often difficult to unite. Because the vision of most mercenaries cannot be flattered, in contrast, businessmen can easily stand on the same front for common interests. Faced with the large-scale integration of mercenaries, the biggest headache is the businessmen. In this magical world, magic has penetrated deeply into life, especially the families of nobles and wealthy merchants, who consume a certain amount of magic crystals every day. Now the mercenaries are united. The prerequisites for monopoly have been created, and businessmen must of course be vigilant.
What is surprising is that Anthony has never interfered with the magic crystal transaction. With Alice as his adviser, he would never make such a superficial mistake. What Yoland wants is stability. If he is greedy for immediate profits and raises the price of magic crystals, the merchants will inevitably fight back. How can Yoland just sit idly by? The price of magic crystals remains high, which will affect the lives of nobles and businessmen. Those who can live a luxurious life are members of the ruling class, which makes the entire ruling class angry and has a negative impact on the development of the mercenary country. Extremely disadvantageous.
When Anthony proposed the plan, Alice immediately rejected Anthony's idea and must not provoke trouble first! However, Alice told Anthony to be prepared and find ways to accumulate a large amount of food. Food has always been the weakest point of the mercenary country. Because the eldest prince West has a good relationship with the courtiers, he has become the target of big businessmen from all over the world. If he interferes, a business war is very likely to break out, and then all the responsibilities can be pushed to West. Special body.
Compared with Anthony, Alice's movements are much gentler, or in other words, she expresses her political art in a sweet-talking and sword-fighting way. After Christain left the Diamond City, Alice, West and Glendon The relationship between them is very harmonious, and West once found Alice and wanted his confidant to serve as the Lord of the Diamond City.
West's idea is contrary to Julande's established national policy. Julande has promised to use the people from Sandsand to govern the Land of Sands. Who is West's confidant? What's more, how could an outsider be allowed to serve as the city lord of the capital
Of course, West might also be testing Alice's attitude, but Alice only hesitated for a moment before agreeing to West's request. This kind of cooperation made West very happy. Who knew that three days later, Alice would The city leader, who had only been in office for only three days, was executed in the street on charges of corruption. This incident shocked the whole city at the time.
West was so angry that he almost fainted and broke into Alice's office room to question Alice. However, Alice put one piece of evidence in front of him. The unlucky city lord was not only corrupt, but also raped maids, Beating a soldier was punished for several crimes, so in the end he was sentenced to death. Alice told West aggrievedly that it wasn't that she didn't help, but that West had misjudged the wrong person, and no one was to blame. West was so angry that he blurted out, "People all over the continent are doing this, why are they only staring at him?"
Alice turned against him on the spot and denounced West for being ridiculous. West came at the wrong time, or Alice deliberately lured him into the trap. In addition to officials from more than a dozen cities, there were also Thor, Glendon, they were chatting in the inner room, waiting for the official document to be signed by Alice. As a result, everyone heard West's absurd questioning and Alice's righteous rebuke.
If killing West's henchmen was a resounding slap in the face to West, then reprimanding him in public was undoubtedly another slap in the face. West was about to go crazy. If he hadn't seen Thor, it would have been hard to tell. Whether he would attack Alice on the spot, and what Simpera, who had been watching with a cold eye, might do, no one knew, after all, it didn't happen.
Throughout the winter, the lives of the residents in the Mao Empire and Shansha were relatively peaceful. Only one incident caused quite a stir. In a closed castle located more than 200 miles northeast of the holy city of the Mao Empire, an incident occurred. All the more than 500 people in the castle were killed by the necromancer, and eventually turned into zombies. When dawn came, the zombies lost their last vitality and dissipated into smoke and dust under the sunlight.
This incident alarmed the Holy City. Mioric, who returned to the Holy City, personally led the team to investigate. However, a few days later, the investigation ended with loud thunder and light rain. The eldest prince West, thousands of miles away, received the news. After that, he fainted on the spot and was bedridden from the next day. The slap Alice gave him had already caused a lot of damage to him. The news that all the more than 500 people in his mother's clan had been massacred made him collapse even more.
In fact, there is no need to investigate at all. Anyone who knows a little bit about the inside story can guess who is the murderer, who is unstoppable and even crazy enough to ignore any consequences? Who is closest to the Necromancer now? Thor was smiling bitterly, Alice was joyful, and Chris Ding remained silent. As for Yolande, no one knew what he was thinking.
None of them wrongly blamed An Fei, but An Fei had his own reasons. Although West's mother clan has been frozen by Julande, they still have their own potential. Walter and Julie are the best proof! It is seven points of sin to kill a snake without death. Instead of waiting for West's mother clan to take revenge, it is better to use the power of the three masters of the undead to kill them all!
Of course, doing so is very likely to arouse Yolande's disgust, but don't forget that An Fei is crazy at certain times. His keen insight allows him to penetrate through the intricate layers of cause and effect to reach the essence! If there is no way to get rid of Minos I, the world will fall sooner or later. What does it matter if there is a big hole in the sky? Everyone is going to die anyway! If he can really break through the final bottleneck and kill Minos I, as a new generation of saints, it shouldn't matter if he gets rid of a family because of some grudge, right? Who will come to ask for justice, and who dares to come
This is not ungrateful or burning bridges. Anfei has always respected and respected Yolande, but he must express his wishes clearly, because what he wants to protect is not only the future of him and Susanna, but also the future of Ke People like Risdin and Alice! Can we let others decide the future of ourselves and our partners? Do nothing and let nature take its course? An Fei never believed in fate, he only believed in his own mind and hands.
