Chapter 698, The Host and Guests Have Fun (Part 2)
ps: Today's chapter is 5300 words, I wish you a happy reading!
Aurora's heart is not good recently.
The sanctuary witch's situation is not good now. After the Winter Veil Festival, she returned to the Garland Council to deploy staff, but she found that the situation in the council had changed again.
Now the Garland Council is theoretically composed of four sanctuary witches, that is, Speaker Margarita, Elder Carolina, Elder Veronica and her. After she returned to the Council, she suddenly discovered that Elder Carolina actually He also started to confront her, and now it was one to three, and Aurora had already fallen into an absolute disadvantage.
Of course, as far as Aurora's strength in the sanctuary is concerned, it is impossible for her to have nowhere to go. Any human force is willing to regard this sanctuary witch as a distinguished guest, provide funds and the power to mobilize the army, but Aurora This is not what La wants. What she wants is an independent status and high status like in the Garland Council. She doesn't want to be a vassal.
And Elector Vamir obviously also knew the news that Aurora was ostracized. This old pervert took this opportunity to show his hospitality to Aurora. He offered to say that you brought your people to Wolfenburg. If you build a wizard tower, you can also be given the role of a female courtier, so you can maintain a certain degree of independence.
Ostland is very close to Kislev, and Aurora and the Elector Vamir are also familiar. If she hadn't accepted Ryan's request, maybe she would really consider it. As for being a female courtier It is not that Aurora can't think about it at all. For the Garland Witch, body is often a bargaining chip. If Vamir can fulfill all the promises of the elector, then it is not right to be the chief female courtier for him. no.
"Gloria doesn't believe in tears."

But now that she has agreed to Ryan's request to establish the Seventh Army, then Elector Wamir can ignore it, and her son-in-law is better than Elector Wamir in terms of personal ability, power, financial resources, and closeness. Much better, Ryan is about to become king, there are better choices, Aurora will naturally not consider Vamir's suggestion, but basic courtesy is still required, just like this, the two sat on the long leather sofa , chatted without a sentence.
"Mother, are you here?" Teresa and Veronica approached one after the other, and the sorceress held the wine glass: "Hello, Lord Vamir, nice to meet you."
"Hello, Ms. Teresa, Ms. Veronica." Elector Vamir saw the eyes of two of Ryan's female courtiers light up, and he immediately felt that a certain part of himself was full of vitality.
Ryan, this guy, his wife is beautiful, and the two female courtiers are also so beautiful!
Of course, Wamir can only think in his heart at most, this old pervert is not stupid at all, he can clearly distinguish which women can touch and which women can't touch, Wamir smiled politely, facing Teresa and Vero Nika picked up the wine glass: "What a delightful banquet? Two ladies, you are so beautiful today. I am here to congratulate Ryan. He is a friend of our empire and a close friend of mine."
"Thank you, Lord Vamir, and I wish you good health." Veronica said meaningfully, and then she immediately turned to Aurora who had already drank a lot: "Ms. Aurora, I am looking for you everywhere .”
Elector Vamir immediately understood. The old guy laughed a few times, picked up his glass, and began to look for the next target very skillfully: "Oh, you guys talk, I'll go over there to see if there is any interesting show."
"Veronica, are you here to laugh at me?" Aurora looked unhappy when she saw Veronica,
She leaned back on the sofa and said in a dazed way.
"How are Ryan's preparations going?" Veronica smiled and pulled Teresa to sit beside Aurora: "It's impossible not to concentrate."
"Things are not that easy. What we are going to do is something from scratch." Aurora said casually: "You just follow Ryan on the expedition to Bafeng Mountain, and you don't need to know anything else."
"Have you figured it out? Move here from the council?" Veronica didn't intend to stop.
"...Does this have anything to do with you?" Aurora said impatiently: "Do your own thing, Veronica, and don't bother me."
"Then why am I bothering you?" As soon as Aurora finished speaking, Morgiana, the goddess of the lake, appeared in front of several witches. The first choice of the fairy in the lake had a somewhat unhappy face: "Aurora- Ms. Trovik, I warn you, since you promised Ryan to help him establish a newspaper department, please don't hook up with the imperial elector on the other side of the mountain. I don't know, otherwise I have the right to arrest you on the spot Down!"
"Exit Morgiana, mother, this is just normal communication!" Teresa immediately stood up, and the sorceress explained seriously: "Elector Vamir and mother are old acquaintances, and the two sides are just saying hello."
Today's Morgiana is wearing a Breton champagne-colored bubble silk gown with slits, a golden Lagoon wreath on her head, and a gold belt. The tenderness when she was with Ryan has long since disappeared from her beautiful face. She looked very cold, and the Lake God Witch looked at Teresa and Aurora with the expression that you thought I was an idiot. Obviously she had also heard the invitation from the Elector of Vamir before, and Morgiana's blue eyes were full of tears. Facing the anger from the lake god, she whispered into Aurora's ear: "Don't let me find a chance, witch, you don't belong to us at all."
"Hmph!" Aurora also snorted coldly at Morgiana: "You don't belong to us."
Veronica sat smiling while eating melons and watching the show, while Teresa could only cover her face. In fact, she didn't quite understand why Morgiana had such deep hostility towards Aurora.
"Where is Ryan?" Veronica asked casually.
"Lian is in the garden, talking to His Majesty Teclis and His Majesty Karl Franz." Morgana's attitude towards Veronica was better: "You want to go there?"
"Why not?" Veronica was indeed a little bored. Witch Garland was unaccompanied in the palace, and she couldn't integrate into it, whether it was a Britannian noble or an imperial noble. The assembly of noble ladies is not where she stays. Teresa obviously wants to stay with Aurora. Seeing this, Veronica whispered a few words in Morgana's ear. Morgana's eyes lit up and she nodded in agreement.
At the same time, the Crown Prince of Brittania is discussing the next part of the plan with the emperor and the high-level Supreme Master.
"The good news is that according to the divination and prophecy of the White Tower of Hess, it seems that the Eternal God Chosen has not found the location of the last Chaos artifact, the Crown of Dominion." Teclis faced Ryan and Karl with some He said in a worried tone: "The bad news is that he may find the crown of the ruler at any time."
"Then your divination means that you basically don't have any valuable gains." Ryan complained: "Well, at least for the time being, we don't need to face the chaotic tide in the north. I expect to lead the army to set off one month after I take the throne. Expedition to Mount Bafeng, we will spend the Winter Veil Festival at Haimen Pass, and then officially start the great expedition to Mount Bafeng.”
"Do you need help from the Empire?" Karl Franz is obviously also very interested in the wealth of Eight Peaks Mountain, but the Empire is not like Britannia. Ryan has spent more than ten years since coming to Britannia The Northern War has basically eliminated all internal and external troubles in the entire kingdom, but the empire is different. Karl Franz just asked casually to see if he could get a share of the pie.
"Too many troops are not good for the expedition, and the supply pressure is too great." Ryan shook his head: "If there is a need, I will tell you, Karl."
"Okay." The emperor turned to Teclis: "Your Excellency Teclis, I haven't seen you for several years. Is there any news from the Phoenix Royal Court? What's the action of the War Council? What can we do for our elf friends?" ?”
Teclis has always been happy and angry, but when he heard the emperor's question, a little helplessness appeared in the eyes of the dead fish of the supreme archmage: "I don't understand what you are asking, Your Majesty the Emperor of the Empire."
"Just call me Karl. It's time for a private gathering, so don't need so much red tape." The emperor said kindly, "Is there any new news from His Majesty Finnuba's Phoenix Court recently?"
"If what you want is news that is meaningful or influential to mankind, I can tell you that there is none." Teclis said calmly: "If you want me to tell you, the Phoenix Court has How many political conspiracies, factions, secret deals, and mutual temptations have occurred, then I can spend a month describing them in detail with you, and there will never be any repeated episodes."
"Pfft~" Ryan laughed out loud when he heard the words, Karl Franz smiled wryly after hearing this, and shook his head quickly: "No need, since there is no news, it is good news."
The three were silent for a while, and Ryan took the initiative to say: "Very well, since there are no more reports to exchange, what should we do now, it's only eight o'clock now."
"It's eight o'clock, it's time to rest." Karl Franz said a rather cold joke. He thought it was very funny, and made a face at Ryan and Teclis.
"..." Both Ryan and Teclis squinted at him. Ryan thought that it might not be an accident that Karl and Marius had such a good relationship. Both of them were good at making such untimely jokes.
The emperor also seemed to find his joke a little awkward, he raised his head and drank the champagne in the glass: "Well, Boris and the others are playing a war chess game in the conference hall, and I will bring all my chess pieces this time Now, maybe we can play chess in the conference hall?"
"...Is there anything else?" Both Ryan and Teclis seemed uninterested. Ryan was because of his poor level, and Teclis felt that this kind of war chess game of humans was too mentally retarded. The same war chess game of the high elves The game has a military book with a thickness of more than 300 pages, and there are eight editions of rules. It takes at least five years for an elf to go from entry to proficiency.
"...Uh, or, can we find a place, have a few more drinks together, and then play cards? Nuer University has recently researched a brand new card game, and Emmanuel brought them this time. Seeing this, the emperor gave a new proposal: "We can continue to chat, call other people, and chat while playing cards. I have a lot of anecdotes about Brunswick to share."
"I think it's okay." Ryan nodded: "At least it's much more interesting than war chess games."
"Very good, since everyone agrees, let's go." Karl Franz nodded, and the three of them were about to leave the garden.
"Wait a minute!" At this time, the charmingly dressed Veronica approached with a wine glass, and Witch Garland slowly approached with her beautiful silk feet stepping on white fish mouth high heels. Even Karl Franz said hello: "Can I have a few words with Ryan?"
"Oh, of course, it sounds really serious!" Karl Franz obviously understood something, and the emperor smiled ambiguously: "Your Excellency Teclis, let's go first, Ryan, see you later."
"See you later." Ryan was led by Veronica to the corner of the garden. The two walked to a flower garden. Ryan asked with a smile, "What's the matter, dear?"
"It's okay, I just want to chat with you alone." Veronica raised her chin, she drank a lot today, her face was bright red, bright and charming: "Also, I don't want others to know what we are going to do later. "
"Hmm, what are we going to do waiting?" Ryan vaguely understood something.
"Mogiana is waiting for us in the bedroom in the corner of the second floor of the palace. She has set up a magic circle. We can go up and do some other, particularly happy things." Veronica took two steps forward and moved her forehead On Ryan's chin: "How about it, dear, think about it?"
"Wow, dear, are you so direct?" Ryan lowered his head and kissed Veronica's flaming red lips deeply.
Veronica stood on tiptoe, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the moment.
After a long time, her lips parted, Witch Jialan panted lightly, and said playfully, "Honey, I am no longer that shy and reserved witch apprentice. Of course, if you ask me, I'm still willing to perform."
"So, do you want to come? You can join His Majesty Karl and His Excellency Teclis in half an hour, an hour, an hour and a half, or two hours?" Veronica threw it at Ryan. A wink.
"Or three hours?" Ryan made a decision.
"As you wish, it depends on your ability, dear."
……… I’m looking at the dividing line of your ability………
At this time, on the outskirts of Krona, a team from Marienburg did not enter the city, but chose to station outside the city.
The Grand Duke of Marienburg, Vander Gouber-Schulz, who has controlled the upper and lower chambers of Marienburg for more than 30 years, brought only a few particularly tall people, so he was unsuspecting in the wilderness hang out on top.
Schultz has to face at least ten assassinations every year. Under normal circumstances, he would not be so relaxed about his own safety, and it is even less likely that he would leave his personal guards and the "Border Ranger" pioneer grenade guards to act alone. It is really unreasonable.
Today is an exceptional day.
With these guys after Schultz, it is impossible to have an accident.
"That is to say, after you have been lurking in Marienburg for five years, you discovered that the actual ruler of Marienburg is an undead, called Mondvald-The Cruel?" Wearing a dark green full dress, carrying With a giant sword, Leon Al-Jonson, Primarch of the Dark Angel Gene, said to Schultz: "Very well, if it were me, there is no need for this city to exist."
"Yes, Lord Johnson, Mondvald-Cruel was once a subordinate of Vlad von Carstein, Count Vampire and Elector of Sylvania. After Vlad's defeat, he entered the I entered Marienburg and secretly became the underground ruler of Marienburg. After I received His Majesty's revelation and was sent to Marienburg, I spent several years entering the House of Commons and trying to understand everything until I found that the entire House was nearly 30% All members of Parliament are vampires, descendants of Mondwald." Van der Gouber-Schulz said to Johnson in a tone full of respect and reverence: "Even with His Majesty's blessing, I spent almost two It took ten years to clear all the undead out of Marienburg's parliament, I killed Mondvald, and that vampire is dead for the time being, for the time being."
"That's really a great event!" Salamander Primarch, Vulkan, who was more than three meters tall, raised his fist and said loudly with a strong and excited voice: "Schultz, well done!"
"Very good." The Lord of Humanity, the Emperor looked at Krona in the distance with his face shrouded in miracles and light, and he spit out a word coldly and without emotion.
Just one word made Schultz almost cry. To hear the emperor's holy words, the hard work of more than thirty years is completely worth it.
Under the leadership of Schultz, the Emperor and his party entered a farm. They brutally destroyed the walls of the farm and directly entered the granaries and corrals in the farm.
It was already late at night in autumn, and the serfs in the farm had already fallen asleep. Schultz pointed to the harvested grain and said to the emperor: "Lian's reform has proved to be effective, and now many serfs in Krona have bought My household registration has become a free citizen, Your Majesty, Your Excellencies, you see, the warehouse is full of grain. Obviously, this family is already a free citizen, because it is impossible for serfs to store so much food, and most of the surplus food will be taken by the knight. They confiscated."
"Well, quite primitive planting methods, and all-natural grain ingredients, if such a handful of grains is in the holy Terra, it will definitely cause looting." Vulcan grabbed a handful of grains: "Ah, I really want to taste Ann Grand's porridge!"
The Emperor also grabbed a handful of barley. He frowned, looking at the full grain grains, as if he was thinking and reminiscing about something.
At this moment, the scream of a little girl pierced the quiet night sky. A little girl about five or six years old was standing at the door of the granary. The stuffed doll I made was already a little tattered, but the little girl liked the stuffed doll very much now, holding the stuffed doll tightly in her arms, her little face flushed from the cold.
The big watery eyes looked at these uninvited guests in horror, and screamed: "Ladies... ladies! You thieves! Monsters! What are you doing?!"
"It's not good! Some Norscan barbarians have entered our farm!" The little girl saw these tall figures, and immediately determined that they were raiders from Norsca, and she turned around and went to the village. Calling people: "It's not good! The Norscans have entered the village! The barbarians have come to steal our food!"
"Damn it!" Zhuang Sen immediately stretched out his hand to the giant sword on his back, and appeared in front of the little girl in the blink of an eye.
"No!"
"Jonson!"
