Seeing thick black smoke rising everywhere below, and many fires shining brightly, the city was in a state of chaos at first glance. A group of people all looked at Xu Yi in surprise.
Count Gandall, who had just been promoted to the position of Director of the Candela Empire's Commercial Administration last month, pondered for a moment, but finally couldn't help but speak.
"President Xu, I thought that the Kingdom of Kuranyi would at least put up a battle array and welcome our arrival..."
Xu Yi frowned, thought for a moment, and waved behind him, calling the commander of the magic airship where he was.
"Send the order and send a small team to investigate outside. Judging from the situation here, the murderers here should not have gone far. Catch those guys back for me."
"Yes." The commander took the order and left, and was soon able to convey Xu Yi's order through the communication device on the magic airship.
After a while, eight magic airships flew out in groups of two, divided into four directions, and flew out respectively.
"President Xu, what's happening below is like this, are we..." Seeing Xu Yi's bad expression, Marquis Gandaul's tone became cautious.
"You guys wait a minute, I'll go down and take a look."
After Xu Yi said a word, his figure suddenly disappeared in front of everyone.
Marquis Gandall and other representatives from various countries and chambers of commerce who came with Xu Yi were stunned.
What Xu Yi meant was... He actually went down to the city below to investigate the situation in person
This is too risky!
But everyone reacted immediately.
Xu Yike already had the strength of a magister level ten years ago, so how could he be in any danger
Thinking of this, everyone put down their worries about Xu Yi's safety.
But looking at the chaotic situation in the city below, everyone was filled with worries about the prospects of this operation.
The various countries and chambers of commerce they represented were not very confident about this investment in the Kuranyi Kingdom. The reason why they sent representatives was only because of Xu Yi, not because of their confidence in it. What a strong confidence the Kingdom of Kuranyi has.
Originally, they thought that Xu Yi must have arranged everything. This will bring them all here.
But they didn't expect that as soon as they arrived here, they saw with their own eyes that the city below, which was supposed to be the capital of King Kuranyi, fell into chaos. It didn't look like a "stable situation and suitable for investment".
If it weren't for Xu Yi. They were afraid that after seeing this situation, their first reaction would be to turn around and leave immediately.
A country that can't even keep its own king is worth investing in
This question also flashed through Xu Yi's mind, and he immediately threw it away.
He selected the Kingdom of Kuranyi as the implementation target of the first large-scale eastern development plan. It's not because the environment here is good enough, it's precisely because the environment here is bad enough.
As early as two years ago, when he decided to implement this plan, then selected the target, and finally determined it to be the Kingdom of Kuranyi, Xu Yi had already completed multiple investigations and had a relatively complete understanding of the situation in the Kingdom of Kuranyi.
This Kingdom of Kuranyi... Strictly speaking, it has never had a relatively complete and complete national system, so in fact it is a bit reluctant to call it a kingdom.
Although the Kingdom of Kuranyi has always had a king, in the more than three hundred years since the Kingdom of Kuranyi was founded, its kings have changed as many as eleven surnames, and no one family has been able to rule the kingdom for more than thirty years. Year.
Such a piece of evidence is extremely shaky. A country with frequent rebellions is obviously not a suitable place to invest.
However, Xu Yi chose this place.
His idea is very simple. If such a country can be fully integrated into the magic industry development system and become a stable country that can concentrate on developing the magic industry, then there will be no country among the countries in the eastern part of the mainland. Can't solve this problem.
From another perspective, this choice is really irrational.
After all, if you choose countries with better environments, the results will come faster and easier.
But Xu Yi's goal is to comprehensively develop the countries in the eastern part of the continent. So he deliberately chose the most difficult object as the first target, just to be able to advance faster in the future.
But... the facts he saw before him made his first step seem a bit difficult.
"save-"
A shout suddenly sounded from the front left, and then stopped abruptly.
Xu Yi frowned. The body moved and instantly flashed to the location where the sound came from.
Several strong men wearing leather armor and holding broadswords were surrounding a woman whose clothes had been stripped off most of her body. One of the strong men had already taken off his trousers from the lower body and was approaching the woman with a ferocious smile.
The woman's mouth was covered by a strong man, and her hands were tied together by another strong man. He couldn't move at all and was about to be defiled.
Xu Yi snorted coldly, and several wind blades suddenly flew out, accurately slicing the necks of several strong men.
Several strong men felt a chill on their necks, and then several streams of blood spurted out. They all fell to the ground without even having time to hum.
Xu Yi casually picked up a windbreaker and threw it to the woman, then took out the magic phone box from his arms again.
"Send guards down to maintain order in the city."
After giving the order to the escort, Xu Yi suddenly flew up, looked around in the sky, and quickly located the building complex built on a hill in the north of the city.
That was the palace of the Kingdom of Kuranyi. At this time, several wisps of black smoke and several streaks of fire came out from it. Apparently, it was not spared.
Seeing this situation, Xu Yi immediately understood that he might have just encountered another rebellion in the Kuranyi Kingdom.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yi's figure flashed and he was already above the palace in the blink of an eye.
Looking down, he found that there were cries of killing everywhere in the palace. Various grotesque corpses and blood flowing everywhere could be seen everywhere. It seemed that the turmoil was not over yet.
However, Xu Yi no longer had high expectations for the situation here, because he had just tried to use the magic call box to contact the king of Kuranyi Kingdom, but he had not been able to get a response.
Then either the king lost the special magic call box given to him by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, or he was dead.
Xu Yi looked around and flew towards a group of soldiers running around with knives raised and wearing the same leather armor as the strong men he saw just now.
The soldiers suddenly saw a person flying over from the air. After being stunned for a moment, they immediately launched an attack on Xu Yi without any courtesy.
Of course, the crude bows and arrows in their hands could not pose any threat to Xu Yi.
Xu Yi easily killed all the other soldiers. Only one of the guys who looked like the leader was left.
By learning the illusion magic from Elder Undine and gaining more functions through in-depth scientific research, Xu Yi easily asked the information he wanted from the leader's mouth.
As he guessed, a rebellion broke out in the Kuranyi Kingdom.
And based on the information provided by this leader. The person who initiated this rebellion was General Le Faru of the Kuranyi Kingdom.
With the decisive military power he held and the arrangements made in advance, the king was directly killed by him when the rebellion started. And he also took the opportunity to kill a large number of ministers and generals who opposed him, and now he has basically taken control of the situation in the royal city.
As for why he suddenly chose this time to launch a rebellion, the little leader didn't know.
Xu Yi also knew that nothing could be learned from him, so he asked General Le Faru's current location and went directly to him.
A few minutes later, Xu Yi walked straight into the Kuranyi Kingdom's political hall, which was located in the center of the palace.
Looking up, there was a tall figure sitting on the throne. However, it was not the king of Kuranyi Kingdom who had met with Xinfei Chamber of Commerce several times before, and Xu Yi had also met with his own eyes. Instead, he had a different face. A rough big man.
Xu Yi suddenly appeared. The big man was stunned for a moment, then shouted and stopped the surrounding men from attacking Xu Yi.
"President Xu! You are President Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, right?" The big man looked at Xu Yi with wide eyes. Not only did he not have any panic, but he looked surprised.
Xu Yi is not surprised that the other party can recognize him, because his image has often appeared in major newspapers and in the illusions projected by various magic illusion projectors over the years, and has long been known to many people in Sainz Continent.
"Are you General Le Faru?" Xu Yi asked.
The big man laughed and patted his chest hard.
"Yes, I am General Le Faru! President Xu, you are here this time. You are bringing people to invest in our Kuranyi, right?"
Xu Yi was not surprised that the other party knew about this. After all, he was the general in charge of the military power of the Kuranyi Kingdom.
However, he frowned and did not intend to pay attention to the other party's question. He asked again: "Did you kill King Simpson?"
General Le Faru was stunned for a moment. It seemed that Xu Yi would not ask this question.
After glancing at Xu Yi up and down, he still laughed loudly: "Yes, I killed him. This guy Simpson actually secretly planned to get rid of me, how could I let him get his way!"
"I don't care about the grudge between you and King Simpson, but General Le Faru. King Simpson is a recognized partner of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce. You killed him and plunged the Kuranyi Kingdom into chaos, but you treated our New Flying Chamber of Commerce Our investment plan has been greatly hindered, how do you plan to compensate us?”
General Le Faru narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Yi: "What? Are you planning to avenge that old guy Simpson?"
Xu Yi remained silent.
General Le Faru groaned, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
"President Xu, I don't think this will hinder your Chamber of Commerce's investment plan. Although the old guy Simpson is dead, our Kuranyi Kingdom is still there. As long as your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce supports me in controlling the kingdom, then I It will definitely give you the New Flying Chamber of Commerce far better conditions than Simpson, what do you think?”
Xu Yi looked at him, then at the soldiers beside him who were about to move, smiled slightly, and shook his head.
"Sorry, I don't like to cooperate with people like you. And what you just said reminded me that King Simpson is dead, and you can control the Kuranyi Kingdom to cooperate with us. In this case, why don't we control Kuranyi ourselves? Where is the Kingdom of Yi?”
General Le Faru's expression suddenly changed. (~^~)
