The Amber Sword

Chapter 924: The Witch's Rebellion (2)

Views:

Roman is usually not interested in witch affairs, and rarely takes care of it, but beside her, there is a white mist of Qi Ling, a former witch and queen, who believes that the merchant lady is the inheritor selected by the witch queen and is the future. People who want to be in charge of the entire kingdom of witches, as for the king of witches, she seems to be the usurper in charge of the seal on her behalf—in fact, there is nothing wrong with this statement. In history, the queen of witches did not designate her inheritance. The power of the witch’s line was taken care of by her maid before her death, and she became the nominal'regent'. After the first era, even the term regent was rarely mentioned, and it was directly used by the witch king. The title is just that the witch has a long heritage, and many witches still know this past in the kingdom of Brunozon.

Since this is the case, of course Bai Wu can't tolerate the power of the witch. It’s just that the business lady’s whole-hearted hobbies are in business. She can’t persuade the other party, so she has to personally copy the knife and go into battle. As Qiling who has lived for thousands of years, back then She actually did the same thing when she was around the Queen of Wu, and now she is familiar with these'juniors'. With her unique background, she quickly subdued Barbasa and her people, and put a series of eyeliners into the witch who took refuge in Brando.

In this way, as soon as there were unstable factors among the witches, Bai Wu grasped the news and woke up Roman. Although our merchant eldest lady never cared about her nominal subordinates, she also knew the importance of these witches to Brando, so she put aside her own affairs and rushed over, so that she and Fro met together.

According to the news that Bai Wu learned, this time An Wei and the witch of the Moon of the Sword were the main cause of the changes in the witch camp. She and the witch of the Moon of Sword were introduced by Barbasha to invest in Brando. , Be regarded as the first batch of witches to join Valhalla. Brando listened to Roman's description, thinking of the two women, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He thought that the witch was just a little action, but he didn't expect the problem to be worse than he thought. Even the first witch who joined him was born. Different ideas, not to mention the clutters that were added later. Moreover, Bai Wu also specifically mentioned An Wei’s birth. The main range of activities of the witches of Sword Moon is in the north of Eruin. There are actually many Cruz people in this witch, and they have a deep relationship with the witches of Anzeruta. Contact, in fact, the witch who joined him in the Silver Bay area was introduced by An Wei.

The Silver Bay area is east of Anzeruta. There are a series of loose duchy city states, almost all of which belong to Cruz and Saint Osor. There are several long-standing witches’ heritages here. Brando had expected Through them, they can shorten the relationship with these small countries, open up the passage from Eruin to St. Osor, and serve the purpose of restraining Cruz, but now that Anwei has fallen to the Silver Queen, these witches are naturally equally unreliable.

Fortunately, in the news that White Mist received, the witches of the Moon of the Sword hadn't been affected yet. Brando remembered that the middle-aged witch named Kurul had come-when he first met the other party, the other party was almost unaffected. I was too impressed by him. I only remembered that she was a tall and thin middle-aged woman. She wore a hood all day long and she didn't show her true face. She seemed to have no interest in anything. She came here for the first time under the introduction of Barbasa. When I saw him, the nominal'dark dragon', he was also indifferent, not as enthusiastic as An Wei-even on the surface.

Brando subconsciously knocked on the table with his knuckles, and suddenly became curious about the witch. The witch of the Moon of Sword is not like the witch of the latter moon to which Barbasa and Sugar Bowl belong. As the first witch to join him and have witnessed him display the "power" of the dark dragon, the clansmen of Barbasa are almost His natural ally is also the most reliable subordinate. There is almost no possibility of betrayal, but the witch of the Moon of Sword is different. They are more distant from themselves, and they are not even as good as An Wei and her people. Brando couldn't help but wonder why An Wei, not Kurul, was the first to turn around at this juncture.

Was it because Kurul and her people were too slow to realize later? Brando shook his head in his heart, and felt that this reason could not convince him. Not to mention that the deeds of the Silver Queen are widely spread across the continent, but they are also moving from Metz, Cape Bay and Ludwig at an astonishing speed. It spreads in all directions. Now even in the areas south of Faenzan and the Great Glacier, people have heard about the re-appearance of the Dark Dragon. As the Kurul clan in the center of the storm, there is no reason to ignore it? Besides, they are the witches most closely related to this incident.

Then the question is, what makes Kurul and her people feel confident and not worried that they have taken refuge in the wrong person

Seriously, in fact, Brando himself feels that the Queen who is now far away in the imperial capital may be the real inheritor of the dark dragon, because he himself never thought of using this identity, in his opinion , Odin is Odin, and he is himself. Although he has received inheritance and power from what the world calls the Dragon of Darkness, what about? As Fenghou said, power has no good and evil. The most important thing is the person who uses the power. He is the power of the dark dragon, but he is still Brando.

The path he has to walk has always been his own path, not the path of the so-called dark dragon. In fact, he has never wanted to change the whole world.

In this case, Brando really couldn't find a reason for Kurul and her people to have such confidence in them. Maybe it was hidden too deeply, maybe there was another reason. But no matter what the reason, the weird behavior of this middle-aged woman caught his attention. At this moment, he already had the idea of wanting to see each other, but not now—

Brando waited quietly for Roman to finish. After the merchant lady finished speaking, she was a little surprised to find that he hadn't made any comments. She blinked and asked curiously: "Brando, what are you going to do?"

Brando glared at the quirky merchant lady, and replied somewhat irritably, "These are all your subordinates. Now that there is such a mess, you still come to ask me what to do? Bai Wu often Tell me that you don't care about things at all, and now it seems that you are right."

Romain was a little embarrassed, so he defended, "I... I'm not interested in them. They are all coming to trust me-no, it's Brando you. Besides, I don't want to be anything. The king of witches, that aunt buried under the mountain is also true. I just want to learn her fun witchcraft. She didn’t say hello to me, so she made me become a witch. Bai Wu is annoying. Now, my aunt was not as fierce as her before—"

Brando heard a few black lines on his forehead, what is meant by'I just want to learn her fun witchcraft', the queen must know that Roman calls her the aunt buried under the mountain. To come alive with anger. Besides, Bai Wu, a Qi Ling who has lived for thousands of years, was forced by this merchant eldest lady to be unable to play against the juniors in person. In the end, she was said to be'too fierce'. I don't know if Bai Wu will be. In the night a person cried secretly. I don’t know if this is the so-called ignorance. Anyway, Brando felt that the Queen of Witch chose the merchant lady in front of her as her inheritor without any careful consideration. Of course, it could be because of waiting too long. I was impatient to wait, and the merchant lady just hit her head.

Of course, Brando forced himself to withdraw this absurd idea, and said to the merchant lady in a cold sweat: "Forget it, I know, it's not to blame you, you can do your business with peace of mind, the witch first Let it go, I have my own arrangements, you can feel relieved to contact your old customers."

Hearing that Brando didn't hold her accountable, Romain couldn't help being a little happy, and he hurriedly said "Oh" and stood back obediently. She has at least one good point, that is, she trusts Brando very much. Although Brando has never said how to deal with this matter, in Roman's mind, as long as Brando has agreed, then there must be no problem. . She thought she was in trouble again, and she was still a little flustered, for fear that Brando would trouble her, but now that she has escaped, the businessman can't help but feel excited again, and she is not at all worried about the current situation. Look like.

As for Brando asking her to contact the old customers of the Fir Leader in the Empire, this was actually her job. She knew that Brando was now privately contacting the nobles in the northern part of the Empire-long before the jihad broke out. There are many big merchants within the empire that have trade ties with Eruin. Originally, Eruin and Cruz had an important route on the Sea of Glitter. Later, after Brando took the lead in the firs, this route became more and more busy. Even before and after the Ampersel War, there was a momentum that surpassed this first commercial port in the south. At that time, although the Empire and Eruin had always had frictions, the business relationship with the firs was never broken. Through his outstanding performance in the business field, Roman also got to know many big businessmen in the empire. Otherwise, She would not specifically invite the Silver Queen into the envoy as a well-known businessman.

Although Brando has always been skeptical of this so-called invitation—

However, with the disappearance of the prince’s eldest son, the situation within the empire became increasingly tense. Brando and the empire—especially Ludwig and Metz’s generation of businessmen—have become more politically charged. Knowing that in this era, the big merchants and the big nobles usually have no separation of families, and the manor’s output usually needs to be profitable through commerce. Therefore, many business giants actually have the shadow of nobles behind them, or they are nobles themselves. , For example, Brando himself is the lord of the firs, and at the same time the actual leader of the Seven Seas Chamber of Commerce of the firs, and Roman is just acting as an agent for his fiancee.

In fact, such a combination is not uncommon in all parts of the mainland. Nobles or themselves, or through agents to trade, so the trade between the country and the country often has a very deep political color, such as the early development of the firs. This kind of pure business dealings is an isolated phenomenon. After the eldest son disappeared, Brando, Veronica and Mangrove, the commander of the Black Legion, had actually reached an alliance. Veronica mainly wandered in the imperial capital and sought supporters in the center of power. Mangrove ran Ludwig as a model and banner for the military nobles, while Brando began to consciously contact the northern nobles-mainly through the Roman channel, exerting influence from the commercial level and seeking more allies.

This plan has been carried out for quite a long time, and it has been almost half a year now, and the results achieved are quite fruitful. After all, the Metz and Ludwig areas were originally the traditional spheres of influence of the military aristocracy, and Brando belongs to The fir-tree collar is just a role of threading a needle in it. This role cannot be completed by Veronica and Mangrove under the eyes of the Silver Queen, but the Queen probably never dreamed of being a thousand miles away. The lord of the little kingdom dared to calculate himself.

Today, it is the harvest season for Brando.

Brando watched the merchant lady turn her eyes and stood silently back. He knew what she was thinking about in her heart. He shook his head slightly. Although the witch's turmoil was still a trouble for him, In fact, it is not the most important thing right now. After he calmed down, he actually already had a plan in his mind. Among the three great witches who took refuge in his inheritance, at least two of them stood on his side, and the other one couldn't make waves. The woman named An Wei, the heir of the current Cup Moon Witch, is not an outstanding figure in history, but she is quite famous, but she is famous because she is the famous arrogant-the Supreme Witch Mikaya's stepping stone, I didn't expect that this woman hadn't made any progress in the two lifetimes.

After all, history has its inevitability. Brando suddenly remembered this sentence, and he couldn't help but think of the little girl he was in Shallow Water Town.

He shook his head, expelled the thought from his thoughts, then raised his head to look at Fro. But before he had time to speak, the cold wild elf lady had already said first:

"Lord Lord, what I want to say is similar to Miss Roman, but the target is different."

Speaking of this, Flor paused slightly. She stared at Brando, as if a bit of hatred for iron and steel, said slowly:

"I'm talking about the Cruz people."
