Act 139 Witch Rebellion II
Roman was usually not very interested in the affairs of witches and rarely took care of them, but there was Bai Wu, the former Witch Queen's Qiling, beside her. Bai Wu identified the merchant lady as the successor chosen by the Witch Queen and the future successor. The person who wants to take charge of the entire witch kingdom. As for the current witch king, in her opinion, he is just a usurper who holds the seal on his behalf. In fact, there is nothing wrong with this statement. In history, after the death of the witch queen, there is no designated The successor, the power of the witch lineage was kept by her maid during her lifetime, and she became the nominal "regent". Later, after the first era, even the term regent was rarely mentioned, and the witch king was directly used. The title of witch is just that the inheritance of witches is long, and there are still many witches in Bunosong's country who know about this past event. . ybdu.
In this case, Baiwu certainly could not tolerate the loss of power of the witch lineage, but the business lady's whole-hearted interest was in business. She could not persuade the other party, so she had to copy the sword and go into battle herself. As a contract spirit who had lived for thousands of years, back then She actually did similar things when she was with the Witch Queen, and now she is naturally familiar with these 'juniors'. With her unique background, she quickly conquered Babasha and her people, and introduced a series of informants into the witches who had taken refuge in Brando's subordinates.
In this way, as soon as unstable factors appeared among the witches, Bai Wu grasped the news and woke up Roman. Although our business lady never cared about her nominal subordinates, she also knew the importance of these witches to Brando, so she put down her own affairs and rushed over, so that she met Fuluo.
According to the information Bai Wu learned, the main changes in the witch camp this time were Anwei and her witches from the Cup Moon. She and the witches from the Sword Moon were introduced by Babasha to join Brando. , one of the first batch of witches to join Valhalla. Brando listened to Roman's description and thought of the two women. He couldn't help but frown deeper and deeper. He originally thought that the witch was just making some small moves, but he didn't expect that the problem turned out to be more serious than imagined. Even the witch who first joined him had other ideas, not to mention those who joined later. Moreover, Baiwu also specifically mentioned Anwei's origin. The main range of activities of the witches of Sword Moon is in the north of Eruin. There are actually many Cruz people among this group of witches, and they have a deep connection with the witches of Anzeruta. In fact, the witches who later joined him in the Silver Bay area were introduced by Anwei.
The Silver Bay area is east of Anzeruta. There is a series of loose principality city-states there, almost all of which belong to Cruz and St. Osol. There are several historical witch inheritances here. Brando originally expected Through them, they can close the relationship with these small countries, open up the passage from Eruin to Saint Osor, and achieve the purpose of suppressing Cruz. But now that Anwei has turned to the Silver Queen, these witches are naturally equally unreliable.
Fortunately, the witches of the Sword and Moon series have not been affected by the news Baiwu received. Brando remembered the middle-aged witch named Kurul - when he first met him, he almost It didn't leave a deep impression on him. He only remembered that she was a tall and thin middle-aged woman. She wore a hood all day long and rarely showed her true face. She seemed to have no interest in anything. She was introduced to her for the first time by Babasha. When he came to see him, the titular 'Dragon of Darkness', he also looked indifferent.
Not as enthusiastic as Anwei - even on the surface.
Brando subconsciously knocked on the table with his knuckles, suddenly becoming curious about this witch. The Witches of Sword Moon are not like the Witches of Queen Moon to whom Babasha and Sugarbowl belong. As the first witch to join him and witness him demonstrating the "power" of the Dark Dragon, the tribesmen of Babasha are almost his natural allies and the most reliable subordinates. There is almost no possibility of betrayal, but the sword The witches of the Zhiyue branch are different. Their relationship with them is even more distant. Not even as good as Anwei and her tribe, Brando couldn't help but wonder why Anwei was the first to defect at this juncture and not Kurul.
Is it because Kurul and her people are too slow to realize what they are doing? Brando shook his head in his heart, feeling that this reason could not convince him. At present, the deeds of the Silver Queen are not only widely spread across the entire continent, but also spread at an alarming speed in all directions from Metz, Cloak Bay, and Ludwig. Now there are even large glaciers south of Faenzan. Everyone in the region has heard the news about the return of the Dark Dragon. How can the Kurul clan, who are at the center of the storm, have no reason to ignore it? What's more, they are the witches who are most closely related to this incident.
So the question becomes, what makes Kurul and her people so confident and not worried at all that they have taken refuge with the wrong person?
Seriously speaking, Brando himself actually thinks that Her Majesty the Queen who is far away in the imperial capital may be the real inheritor of the Dragon of Darkness, because he himself has 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, so what? As Feng Hou said, there is no good or evil in power. What is important is the person who uses the power. He controls the power of the Dark Dragon, but he is still Brando.
The path he wants to take has always been his own path, not the so-called Dark Dragon's path. In fact, he has never wanted to change the entire world.
In this case, Brando really can't find the reason why Kurul and her people are so confident in themselves. Maybe it is hidden too deeply, or maybe there is another reason. But no matter what the reason was, the weird behavior of this middle-aged woman caught his attention. At this moment, he already had the idea of seeing her, but not now -
Brando waited quietly for Roman to finish. After the business lady finished speaking, she was a little surprised to find that he didn't express any opinions. She couldn't help but blinked and asked curiously: "Brando, what are you going to do?"
Brando glared at this weird business lady and replied angrily: "These are all your subordinates. Now that there is such a big mess, you still come to ask me what to do? Bai Wu often You told me that you didn't care about things at all, and now it seems that you were right."
Roman was a little embarrassed in a rare moment, and he defended: "I...I'm not interested in them. They are the ones who come to me for refuge - no. They seek refuge with Brando. Besides, I don't want to She was the king of witches, and the aunt who was buried under the mountain was real. I just wanted to learn her fun witchcraft, but she didn't even say hello to me, so she made me become the queen of witches. Baiwu But it’s annoying, my aunt wasn’t as fierce as her before—”
Brando felt a few black lines appear on his forehead when he heard what he meant by "I just want to learn her fun witchcraft". If the witch queen knew that Roman called her the aunt who was buried under the mountain, she would probably be able to do it immediately. Angry to life. Besides, Bai Wu, a contract spirit who has lived for thousands of years, was forced by this business lady to not go out to deal with the juniors in person. In the end, he was said to be 'too fierce'. I don't know if Bai Wu would Secretly crying alone at night. I don’t know if this is the so-called ignorance of people, but Brando feels that the Witch Queen chose the business lady in front of her as her successor. It must have been without careful consideration, of course, it may also be that she was impatient because she had waited too long, and the businesswoman just bumped into it.
Of course, Brando forced himself to take back this ridiculous idea, and said to the business lady in a cold sweat: "Forget it, I understand, it's not your fault, you can go about your business in peace, the witch first Let it go for a while. I have my own arrangements, so you can go and contact your old customers with peace of mind."
I heard that Brando would not hold her accountable. Roman couldn't help but feel a little happy, he said "oh" quickly and stood back obediently. At least one good thing about her was that she had great trust in Brando. Although Brando never said how he was going to handle this matter, in Roman's heart, as long as Brando had agreed. Then there is definitely no problem at all. She originally thought that she had gotten into trouble again, and she was still a little panicked, fearing that Brando would cause trouble for her, but now that she had escaped, the business lady couldn't help but feel happy again. He didn't seem to be worried about the current situation at all.
As for Brando asking her to contact the regular patrons 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 Holy War broke out. , there are many large merchants in the empire who have trade relations with Eruin. Originally, Eruin and Cruz had an important route on the Sea of Glitter. Later, after Brando became successful in the Fir Territory, this route became increasingly busy. , even before and after the Ampelsel War, it had the momentum to surpass the first commercial port in the south. During that season, although the empire and Eruin had always had hidden frictions, the business contacts with the Fir Territory had never been interrupted. Through his outstanding performance in the commercial field, Roman also got to know many big businessmen in the empire. Otherwise, She will not be invited into the envoy specifically for the Silver Queen as a well-known businessman.
Although Brando has always been skeptical about this so-called invitation -
However, with the disappearance of the emperor's eldest son, the situation within the empire became increasingly tense. Brando's interactions with the empire's merchants, especially Ludwig and Metz, became increasingly political. After all, You must know that in this era, generally speaking, big businessmen and big nobles are not separated. The output of the manor owner usually needs to be profitable through commerce. Therefore, many business tycoons actually have the shadow of nobles behind them, or they themselves are Nobles, such as Brando himself, are the lords of the Fir Territory and the actual head of the Seven Seas Chamber of Commerce in the Fir Territory, and Roman is just acting as his fiancée.
In fact, such combinations are not uncommon in all parts of the continent. Nobles do business themselves or through agents. Therefore, trade between countries often has a deep political color, such as the early development of the Fir Territory. This is a simple business transaction, but it is an isolated phenomenon. After the disappearance of the emperor's eldest son, Brando, Veronica and Mangrove, the commander of the Black Legion, had actually reached an alliance. Veronica mainly traveled around the imperial capital, seeking supporters in the center of power. Mangrove managed Ludwig as the example and flag of the military aristocracy, while Brando began to consciously contact the northern aristocrats - mainly through Roman's channel, exerting influence from the business level and seeking more allies. .
This plan has been carried out for quite some time, almost half a year now, and the results achieved are quite fruitful. After all, the Metz and Ludwig areas are originally the traditional sphere of influence of the military aristocracy, and Brando belongs to The fir collar just played the role of threading the needle. This role could not be fulfilled by Veronica and Mangrove under the nose of the Silver Queen, but Her Majesty the Queen probably never dreamed of a person thousands of miles away. How dare the lord of this small kingdom plot against him.
Today, it is the harvest season for Brando.
Brando watched the business lady roll her eyes and stand back without saying a word, knowing what she was probably thinking in her heart. He shook his head slightly. Although the witch's unrest was still a trouble for him, In fact, it is no longer the most important thing right now. After he calmed down, he actually had some calculations in his mind. At least two of the three witch heritages who had taken refuge in him were on his side, and the remaining one couldn't make any waves. The woman named Anwei - the current inheritor of the 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. Unexpectedly, in the two lifetimes before and after, this woman actually made no progress at all.
After all, history has its inevitability. Brando suddenly thought of this sentence, and couldn't help but picture the little girl he had in Qianshui Town.
He shook his head to expel the thought from his thoughts, and then raised his head to look at Fro. But before he could speak, the cold wild elf lady had already said:
"Lord, what I want to say is similar to Miss Roman, but the target is different."
Speaking of this, Fuluo paused slightly. She stared at Brando and said slowly as if she hated the iron.
"I'm talking about those Cruz people."
