[The era of turmoil has arrived, and the protagonist is still at Level 2. His strength...please leave a message and tell us whether it has soared]
Some of Qin Yin's phrases are a bit convoluted and euphemistic at the end. The noble master's phrases are blunt and abrupt at the end, which sounds like he came from a far away place. www、qUAnbEn-xIaosHuo、coM
Salin had no choice but to go up to him and said, "What's the matter?"
He didn't want to get into more trouble. This team of horses and horses seemed to be from out of town. They didn't know the rules very well, so they might take action. It would be great if Joey was willing to help. Just cast a ninth-level spell and these people would probably be scared to death. His voice was a bit lazy, but the noble master didn't have any unpleasant expression on his face. Instead, he approached enthusiastically.
Seeing that he was going straight to Princess Rex, Saleen had no choice but to release a small area of fog of confusion to separate the young master from Rex.
Saleen cast the spell too fast, and there was also a mage in the convoy. When he noticed the elemental fluctuations, he suddenly panicked, and a dozen fireballs flew over immediately. The noble prince waved his hand, and all the fireballs were extinguished in mid-air. Salin's eyes were a little sore, and he blinked hard, but he couldn't see how the noble master did it.
If he hadn't experienced Joey's elemental torrent, Salin would definitely be fascinated by this magic. But now his horizons are higher. The fireball is just a level 2 magic. After becoming a great magician, he can also dispel it.
This noble young man is dressed in silk clothes, just like an actor. He is in a mess, which is really an insult to his status as a mage. Salin felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart and took a step sideways to block the noble master's way.
Salin believed that as long as the opponent was a mage, he would not be as good as him in a fight with fists and kicks. No mage would waste time practicing martial arts. He has been used to being beaten since he was a child, and now he is not afraid of the opponent getting close to him.
"Huh? Why are you blocking the road!" Your young master seemed to have just discovered Salin's existence and asked in surprise.
Not to mention how angry Salin was, he and Rex slipped out. They thought it would be nothing serious. People in the imperial capital were very well-behaved, but they didn't expect to meet someone from out of town. I was harmed by outsiders in my hometown. I acted impulsively. I have to be careful this time. The emperor would definitely protect the princess, but he might not be able to protect himself.
Rex found it funny. She asked Salin to follow her, not as a follower, but Salin was very responsible and helped her block that boring guy, looking like a thug.
The fog of confusion was so thick that it completely cut off the line of sight between her and the convoy. Salin's control of magic was really exquisite, already at the level of a great magician. This range of magic became a single-body magic in Saleen's hands. Using his own body as the coordinate, the fog of confusion would move accordingly, covering a range of less than five feet.
"You said you two should stay, and I am one of them." Salin pointed to his nose and said to the noble master.
The noble prince patted his head, as if suddenly enlightened. "Yes, it seems to be you. I want to talk to the female mage, please get out of the way."
"The female mage doesn't want to talk to you, go back." Salin's answer was like a palace-style poem, very neat but not tactful.
"What right do you have to speak on behalf of another mage!" Your Excellency became a little angry. Salin tried to stop him again and again. If he were in his own country, he would have already called his men to take action.
"What right do you have to let two mages stay?" Salin answered casually, feeling a little headache. I haven't had time to learn Qin Yin's laws yet, so I don't know how to deal with this kind of thing in the imperial capital. But he knew that Princess Rex didn't like talking to this person, otherwise she would have stopped her behavior long ago.
"Hmph!" The noble man exhaled through his nostrils, stared at Salin, and said, "Mage, tell me your name and let me duel with you."
puff…
Salin burst into laughter and sprayed spit on the noble man's face. "Dueling is not allowed in the imperial capital. Look, someone is coming over there. If you want to cause trouble, ask the laws of this city first."
Salin pointed to the other side of the road, where a group of patrolling soldiers was approaching.
"Well, little mage, don't you even dare to say your name?" Your young master was really angry, and Salin felt his murderous intent.
"Sorry, I'm not familiar with you. If you like duels, go to the Tangulas Empire, where there is the Colosseum." Salin was very sensitive to murderous intentions. He turned around and walked into the fog of confusion. Pulling Princess Rex sleeves, the two people walked in opposite directions. The noble prince wanted to catch up, but when he saw that the group of soldiers were about to come up for questioning, he had no choice but to give up.
He discovered something strange about Princess Rex's magic robe and wanted to buy it for a big price, but he didn't expect that a little mage would disrupt the situation. In his mind, the value of this magic robe may be more than 500,000 gold coins. If he gives 800,000 gold coins, the other party will sell it anyway.
The noble prince turned around and walked towards his carriage, thinking to himself that with this female mage's outstanding appearance and her mage robes being particularly conspicuous, he could always find her. When the time comes, buy that little mage at all costs... If you have a chance to meet him, let him look good.
The patrolling soldiers were stopped by the swordsmen in the convoy. Your young master got on the carriage and refused to negotiate with the soldiers. Seeing that there were no troublemakers, the leading officer did not dare to offend the nobles at will. He watched the convoy go away, and then continued patrolling with his soldiers.
Rex and Salin escaped from the entanglement. Salin asked: "Princess Princess, didn't you say that the emperor is safe? Those two guys with golden shells actually want to take action. Find someone to teach them a lesson."
Salin did not want to bully others, but he sensed the murderous intention of the other party and subconsciously wanted to fight back.
"That's the envoy, let's go back quickly." Princess Rex looked bad.
"envoy?"
"He's from the Yunliu Empire. He was supposed to arrive in half a month. I don't know how he showed up in the imperial capital early. He must have used a teleportation array. Because there were so few people, I didn't notice it at first."
Rex explained to Salin, feeling a little annoyed. Yunliu's envoy, why are you so anxious to see your father? You must know that the cost of using the teleportation array is very high, especially to teleport living people. Each person consumes six huge magic cores, each costing tens of thousands of gold coins.
There were more than fifty people in the convoy just now, so it was impossible for all of them to be teleported, which meant that the Yunliu Empire had already made arrangements in Qin Yin.
As soon as Princess Rex returned to the palace, a palace servant immediately sent a message that the emperor wanted to see the princess. Rex did not return to his residence, but rushed directly to the emperor's palace with Salin. This time, Emperor Qin Yin was waiting in the study.
"Father."
Emperor Qin Yin looked at Salin and frowned.
Rex smiled and said, "If I establish a country, Salin will be from Kushui County."
"Envoy Yunliu has entered the imperial capital." In addition to the emperor, Saleen and Rex, there were also several palace swordsmen in the study. The auras of these people were completely restrained, and Salin could not tell their true strength.
"I met Salin, and the envoy stopped me..."
"Is there a conflict?" the emperor asked nervously.
"No, the other party is quite restrained."
"Well, that's good. The war in Garulan broke out, and Sephiroth asked for orders to send troops. The strength of the imperial capital cannot be said to be empty, but I can't allocate more troops to you. At the beginning of the founding of the country, we need to rectify our military equipment. You..."
"Father, I'm going to see Master Joey."
"What did the master say?"
"I didn't say anything, I just gave me something."
"Lace, if Master supports you, I will be relieved. But the empire claims to have millions of elites, but in fact, it can only mobilize about 200,000. Sephiroth will take away 100,000, and the other half will be stationed in the imperial capital. Nobles from all over the country If we raise an army, it will cost a lot of money, so I'm afraid I won't even do it. If you don't have enough manpower, you can consider recruiting mercenaries, and I'll give you the money."
"Father, mercenaries are not trustworthy, you can ask Salin."
Emperor Qin Yin looked at Salin, and Salin was shocked. The emperor's eyes were so scary, a hundred times more terrifying than the murderous intention of that noble young master. Salin felt that his entire being was being seen through. Under the gaze of these ordinary eyes, he had almost no courage to resist.
"Your Majesty, mercenaries are paid to do things. They are generally trustworthy, but they cannot be the main force. The powerful mercenary groups are concentrated in Scotia. The combat effectiveness of small mercenary groups is low. Compared with the regular army, unless there are three Only by fighting one can you have a chance. If the battle is lost and the army collapses, mercenaries will be more terrifying than thieves."
"It's like this!" Emperor Qin Yin was a little surprised. He thought that Scotia could rely on mercenaries to protect the country. These mercenaries were not much different from the regular army.
"Your Majesty, mercenaries are suitable for fighting small battles. It's okay to hire a small number." Salin did not follow Rex's words, he just expressed his own opinion.
"Laisi..." Emperor Qin Yin pondered for a moment and said in embarrassment: "Things in Hadesai City are not easy to handle. The son of Count Mokolali insisted that you sent someone to kill his father. The House of Commons did not propose a motion, but Obviously supporting him.”
"It's obviously a trick of the Holy See!" Salin couldn't help but speak. He had experienced this himself, so of course he knew what was going on.
"I know, Sephiroth also knows, and at least half of the people in the lower house know, but everyone hopes that I will marry Rex to Yunliu, and the two countries will get married and attack the Tangulas Empire, which will save a lot of trouble." Qin Because the emperor's face was as deep as water, the empire's upper and lower house system had many benefits. At least among the four major empires, Qin Yin's number of nobles was well controlled. The number of nobles had only doubled after more than 700 years since the founding of the country.
However, the wrangling between the upper and lower houses showed trouble at this time. The emperor cannot act arbitrarily, which is good for the country, but for the emperor, he has to sacrifice his relatives.
If the emperor cannot protect the interests of the entire aristocracy, why should the aristocracy support you? Even the House of Lords is inclined to this view.
Only then did Salin realize the power of the Holy See, so he killed Count Mocolari and kept his son to let the dignitaries of the imperial capital torment themselves. I really should have stopped in Haditha City and solved this problem once and for all.
The question is, how did the Holy See know these inside stories about Shengyan City, and how did it know Emperor Qin Yin’s choice? Could it be that there are spies from the Holy See around the emperor? This is impossible. Three ninth-level magicians live in the palace, and no one can hide it from them. Moreover, Emperor Qin Yin does not seem to be an ordinary person, he is probably a strong man at the sword master level. His gaze was as terrifying as Joey's elemental torrent.
