This Overlord Doesn’t Care About Anything

Chapter 309: 29. The legend of the capital

Views:

I don't always like to entrust my destiny to others, so I took a piece of letter paper and wrote a few words on it, intending to ask Heyue to send it to Umi.

But after a little thought, I asked for the letter back.

At present, I am definitely not the only one who does not want the Lord of Lingwu to go south, so there is no need to take this muddy water.

I said to He Yue:

"I know about this matter. As long as nothing happened in Yuxi City, whether it is Lord Lingwu or Umi, as long as they don't take the initiative to contact us, we don't have to stand in line. We just do our things well. The top priority is the demons in the west and Yunyang in the east, and the outside affairs are left to the big shots above for the time being."

What I wrote down just now is a bit of guidance for the Commander of Jin Yiwei, which can help him increase his confidence in breakthroughs. But the risk of doing so is too high. Although the strength of the king's capital has been raised to a certain level, once the matter is exposed, the little friendship with Lingwu will be gone.

And I just thought about it for a while. The last time I talked with the black and white brothers, they said that the top two Xiqin and Nanchu are preparing for a big battle against each other. If this is the case, the two lords probably I also don't want Lingwu to go south too early. Supporting the royal family to involve Lingwu, now anyone with a discerning eye can see that those two have no reason not to do so.

He Yue nodded slightly and asked:

"Then recently, will the steel delivered from the northern industrial base to Lingwu still be delivered as scheduled? According to the report from Anbu, all the materials sent to Lingwu will be targeted by those who want to."

I thought for a while and replied:

"Delivery as scheduled, but the quantity has been reduced by half. When Lingwu asked, they said that the pressure on the demons was too great recently, and the production work could not proceed as usual. At the same time, the quality of the steel delivered was slightly uneven. It gives people a feeling that we are working overtime here, but we still can't deliver as usual."

The core of the compressed magic gun is not the design, but the quality of the steel. Traditional steelmaking methods cannot produce bullet casings that can withstand high concentrations of magic power. Only the industrial base in Yuxi City can produce such steel materials in the whole world. If the amount of steel is limited, Lingwu will not be able to manufacture so many compressed magic cannons and shells, and more forces must be deployed to defend the northern line of defense.

He Yue nodded.

I took out the second document and glanced at it briefly. It was a report from Anbu from Yuxi City, about the capital.

When the Dragon Clan came, His Majesty the King immediately ran away with his guards.

But this incident was too embarrassing, His Majesty the King decided to do something to save his face. This was a normal operation, but he didn't reform the government and work hard, and he didn't stop the operation of building palaces. Instead, he had an idea and attributed the extermination of the Tianyue Mountain Dragon Clan to himself.

Anyway, no one claimed the credit for such a big contribution, and being idle was idle. This time, His Majesty's prestige suddenly increased a lot, and his words became more rigid. In the end, I don’t know how it happened. Some time ago, there were rumors in the king’s capital that someone saw the former queen and Qingyun having a tryst and cuckolded the king.

The king had just regained the right to speak in the capital, so how could he tolerate the prestige he had finally built up being messed up by such rumors. He killed a lot of people in a fit of anger, but he still couldn't stop the people from talking, so he decided to do the same, and gradually led the speech into a legend like "Qingyun intended to indecently assault the queen but failed". Albatron exists.

For a while, Qingyun's image plummeted. Although it seems nothing to me, the people of the capital seem to think that hooking up with a wife is a shameless thing. Especially when used against the queen, it would be too inappropriate.

Negative news about Qingyun is everywhere, I guess that the dog king is probably hiding in bed and secretly having fun. He didn't have a good impression of Qingyun. He was sad when Qingyun died because the capital lost a great swordsman with a tenth level of swordsmanship. As long as there was a substitute, he didn't need a man who had been friends with his wife for a long time.

As a result, when he was having fun behind his back, one night, someone broke through eighteen lines of defense, from the city gate to the inner hall, and then to the king's bedroom, forcing the king to apologize.

That person was wearing a pitch-black cloak, and no one knew him. In the end, he had a fight with the commander of Jin Yiwei who came to rescue him, and was pierced through the chest by the commander of Jin Yiwei with a sword. But the sword didn't feel like it hit, and the man and the cloak disappeared together, leaving nothing behind.

The king was so frightened that he is said to have changed his trousers three times in one night.

This is not a supernatural story, but a very common illusion in magic. It is not difficult to create a clone by using the illusion in magic, but the combat ability of the clone is much lower than that of the main body. Killing the palace as a clone, that person's true strength can be seen.

But no one knows this person, and there is no information at all.

But this mysterious person is obviously here for Qingyun's affairs, maybe he is Qingyun's former friend, or a fanboy or something. There are not many people in the world who use magic to such a proficient level. The most suspicious person is the only man in the world who has ten levels of magic. But I don't know that person either, so forget it.

At this time, He Yue suddenly said:

"Speaking of which, Lord Lingwu's side is holding back for the time being. It seems that there is a mysterious legend on the side of the king's capital."

I asked with great interest:

"What legend?"

He Yue smiled and said:

"It is said that the king has a genius born in the world, who knows everything and understands everything. That person never shows up in public, but secretly protects the safety of the king's capital. In terms of personal force alone, although he is not at the top of the realm, But it has reached a level that no one can match. This time the king's capital was attacked by the dragon clan, and he was behind the scenes to resolve the crisis. Now many people are saying that the royal family should not lose their luck. invisible guardian."

I was surprised and said:

"So stupid? Why haven't I heard of it in the capital?"

He Yue sighed and said:

"It's just a rumor... It is said that the hundreds of dragons in Tianyue Mountain were not sent by the king to exterminate them. There are 300,000 people in Tianyue Mountain. No matter how powerful the dragons are, it is impossible to kill them all. Several survivors said unanimously They didn't see the royal army that day. They only saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with a weapon on his back. He single-handedly killed all the dragons in the sky. When they searched afterward, the boy disappeared again. It's clean, and there is no news. Now in the capital, many people are looking for this person spontaneously, and I don't know how many wealthy nobles in the capital, princes and relatives plan to throw olive branches to him."

I shrank my neck:

"Yes, there is such a thing? That is really amazing."

There is a bit of worry in He Yue's eyes:

"Lead, don't you think he is very similar to the Lingwu lord who went deep into the enemy's rear and killed the commander of the giant clan? Kings have such amazing talents, which is not a good thing for us. The most terrifying There are so many smart people in this world who think they have figured out the background of the royal family, but they never thought that they could find such a master to save the situation at any time. In addition to that magician who didn't know where he came from, the water is getting more and more muddy gone."

No, no, I really don't know about the magician, but I think there should be no second such master in the capital.

Even the previous master probably won't play again.
