Chapter 1114: Prince Carter’s True Confidence

[Correction of errors in previous chapters: Third Prince Carter was changed to Second Prince Carter]

…

Both profit and hatred are important driving forces.

But the former is very different from the latter.

All matters involving interests can be resolved through negotiation.

Don't look at it. Grand Duke Jonathan is now supporting the second prince Carter Pendragon.

But if Anna, the third princess, gains power and successfully captures Carter, she can use this as capital to negotiate with Archduke Jonathan.

As long as Princess Anna is willing to promise to distribute the relevant benefits, she will have a chance to draw Archduke Jonathan into the battle group.

This is a conspiracy.

If the Grand Duke was sensible enough, he would know what choice to make.

Of course, the premise is that Anna can successfully capture her brother.

This is the key and important premise of the plan.

For Anna, Henry Lancaster's sudden defection was an unexpected surprise.

Once her plan succeeds, she will gain the support of the two Grand Dukes.

It was enough to confront the most popular eldest prince head-on.

But for the sake of safety, Anna Pendragon did not come to the giant city of Lentax in person.

She knew that she was surrounded by spies and secret agents.

Every move she makes on the surface is closely monitored, so she can only choose to send out her henchmen.

These are the forces that her eastern cities have developed over the past few years.

For Marquis Henry, it was a new force.

All fifth-level and sixth-level elite units also include a seventh-level wind magician and a legendary strongman who is good at infantry formations.

Such a strong configuration, such a team of thousands of people, combined with Marquis Henry's own power, is enough to achieve their goals.

In addition, everyone knew that the second prince Carter was not completely defenseless.

He stationed a team of storm knights and quick-response high-level dragon hawk knights more than a thousand kilometers north of the giant city of Lentax.

The sixth-order sky knights riding fifth-order dragon eagles can rush to the giant city in two hours.

In addition, the second prince Carter is also accompanied by two powerful men at the beginning of the legend.

They are the halfling scout Da Majia nicknamed Shadow Terror.

and the glorious warrior Kaji Mizzit, nicknamed the Imperial Aegis.

These two are well-known guys, responsible for protecting the prince's safety.

And they all swore a blood oath, so there was no possibility of betrayal.

There is also an elite team of about 240 people, who will then be at the disposal of Prince Carter.

This power is enough to protect Prince Carter for several hours in an emergency.

But overall, the advantage is still on the side of Anna and Marquis Henry joining forces.

After all, the giant city of Lentax can mobilize several legendary powerhouses.

There are also a varying number of other legendary powerhouses living or dormant in the city.

In a huge city with a population of tens of millions, there are not as many legendary powerhouses as imagined, but they are not that rare either.

It's just that many legendary powerhouses are not forced to be controlled by official forces.

Most of them are active in various places as mercenaries, adventurers, and free traders.

There are also many legendary alien races, the most typical of which are dragons.

There are endless stories of various true dragon incarnations walking in the human world.

But no matter what, this opportunity is worth a try for Princess Anna.

We don’t even hesitate to take certain risks for it!

…

"Is this the Fish Island?"

England saw the signboard from a distance, stood there and whispered to himself.

The scale there was beyond imagination. It looked less like a stall and more like a roundup scene by the harbor.

As far as the eye can see, the pond that feeds fish is comparable to a medium-sized artificial lake.

Hundreds of sea fish temporarily live in magic sea bubbles and remain alive.

There is also a small pool dedicated to raising shellfish and snails, which is even paved with fine white sea sand.

It is no exaggeration to say that the fish market in Endless Continent used the power of magic to do things that even the seafood market in Blue Star could not do.

This also proves that magical productivity can also have an important impact on social civilization and shape.

The entire fish section of Fengshou Street Market was filled with a pungent fishy smell.

The fish guts, killed and discarded, become a feast for flies.

The salty smell of the magic seawater is particularly pungent.

Without the leisurely sea breeze to complement it, this salty smell would lose its charm.

This is also the essential difference between man-made objects and natural creations.

There were at least a hundred customers shouting loudly around the pool.

Strong workers wearing impermeable sea animal skins are in the pool following the instructions of customers to catch any big fish they want.

Since these fish in the pond are quite big, catching them is still a laborious task.

More than twenty fish killers were sitting by the ditch in the market.

Dark fish blood flowed into the ditch, exuding an unpleasant fishy smell.

The piles of internal organs add a hint of blood.

Zong Shen, England and Xiao Heizi stood by the pool, looking at everything in front of them with interest.

Xiao Heizi licked his lips, the fishy smell made him want to move.

Black Dragon is good for this.

"Look, that's Madaran's big catfish."

"They have the habit of returning water for two seasons. Their meat is firm and tastes great after being sour!"

Xiao Heizi couldn't help but comment in a low voice.

England looked in the direction of its finger and saw a catfish weighing at least a hundred kilograms.

"It looks like a very fat fish."

"But how to eat sour fu?"

He scratched his head and asked in confusion.

But he saw Xiao Heizi hugging his shoulders without saying a word.

"Hehe, if you are willing, you will definitely have the opportunity to taste it in the future."

Zong Shen, who was standing slightly forward, shrugged.

"I bet you can't get used to it, England."

"No, you definitely don't want to eat it."

His words aroused the bard's keener interest.

"Why?"

“Sour rot sounds like pickled puffin.”

"I can accept all common pickling techniques."

"You know I am a bard who has been to many cities!"

England patted his shoulder confidently, and Xiao Heizi immediately smiled even happier when he heard what he said.

One person and one dragon then started discussing other fish.

Zong Shen did not participate in the conversation anymore, but looked far away at the small tents not far behind the pool.

Pitching a tent inside a market sounds like an outrageous thing.

But in the context of such a large market, it doesn’t seem too strange.

Some large stalls will also set up small sheds.

While Zong Shen was silently observing, a tall young man wearing coarse linen clothes common to civilians in the city walked out of the tent in the middle.

His disguise is very clever, and it is conservatively estimated that it will not be lower than level five.

But that's why Zong Shen could tell at a glance that this guy was in disguise.

The reason is also very simple, because his posture and temperament when walking are not like civilians.

This guy's steps were steady, with neither too much nor too little space between each step.

This is such a subtle difference that it is really difficult for ordinary people to detect it.

This move proves that this guy must have an almost rigorous living habit, and it has become his own instinct for action over a long period of time.

Maybe he was an elite sergeant who had undergone long and rigorous training.

After all, Zong Shen already knows the premise——

——Fish Island is one of the temporary strongholds of the mysterious entrants from the east.

At the same time, it is also a way to disguise one’s identity.

Then these small tents are very famous.

Anyone who goes in and out of it is likely to be a sergeant with a mission.

Zong Shen watched the young man leave the market. He did not follow and did not need to follow.

As for intelligence, as long as there is a little clue, he can use the strategy module to trace the source.

He made a special trip to Fengfu Market, first of all to inquire about the price of food among the aborigines.

The second step is to see how brilliant the team and arrangement of the third princess Anna are.

I have to say that the disguise of these Easterners is really good.

Among them, the strong support and cooperation of Marquis Henry are indispensable.

But this cannot be concealed from the surveillance of careful people. For example, the Calamity Raven Church immediately noticed the abnormal transfer of personnel in the teleportation array.

All the scenarios are predicated on Prince Carter being as useless as he appears to be.

I believe that both Marquis Henry and Princess Anna will consider this carefully.

If Prince Carter was really vigilant enough, then he would not give up the chess piece of the Calamity Raven Church on an impromptu basis that he had communicated with before.

Strictly speaking, Carter Pendragon had plans for the giant city of Lentax.

The Calamity Raven Church is the first-hand example.

But nature cannot be taken away.

The beautiful Miss Penny made him change his mind.

Don't think this is funny, too many people in this world will not pay for reason.

Wantonness has become the highest law pursued by these guys.

But even so, even if Carter is a brainless dude, he must have left enough strength in the city to protect himself.

Therefore, no one is 100% sure of the final outcome of this game.

But this risk must be taken. No matter whether it fails or not, Princess Anna has no reason to give up this opportunity.

And Marquis Henry will go all out for this.

As for the Calamity Raven Church, it has long been a loser. It is not surprising that this force will do anything.

Finally, there is him, Lord Guabi, who stays out of the situation but knows everything.

With so many complex elements entangled together, it is still unclear what the final result will be.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen only felt more and more interesting.

He easily took out a large money bag containing tens of thousands of dinars.

"You two feel free to play around."

"I'm going to take a walk by myself."

"Remember, if you can avoid causing trouble, try not to cause trouble!"

Zong Shen was going to send Xiao Heizi and England away.

These two guys have no intention of hanging around, so just let them play by themselves.

It doesn't matter whether he drinks or plays with women.

Anyway, they all have [Communication Crystals] on them.

After taking the heavy money bag, Xiao Heizi and England smiled at each other, nodded and bowed to leave.

In the giant city, space storage props are still precious, but they are not as rare as in the city.

Therefore, the surrounding customers turned a blind eye to the fact that he could get things out of thin air.

After dismissing them, Zong Shen also left Fish Island and casually found a direction to leave the market.

During the walk, he asked the strategy module a question.

"Please tell me Carter Pendragon's true layout of the giant city of Lentax, as well as the guards around him and the troops at his disposal at any time?"

When you are in doubt, ask for guidance. Don't ask where you don't know.

Zong Shen's question was quickly answered, and golden subtitles appeared.

[Carter Pendragon had already controlled one-third of the garrison officers before arriving at the giant city of Lentax, and even the tight city hall had about a quarter of his people.

Get feedback on news from all directions

In addition, a team of storm knights and quick-response high-level dragon hawk knights are stationed more than a thousand kilometers north of the giant city of Lentax.

He was followed by two powerful men at the beginning of the legend.

[Halfling Scout Da Maja] nicknamed Shadow Terror.

And the glorious warrior nicknamed the Imperial Shield [Kaji Mizzit].

There are also two squadrons of elite troops at his disposal.

In an emergency, Carter Pendragon can also mobilize nearly 300,000 garrison troops in the city and no more than 30,000 noble private soldiers.

In the end, Carter also had some fans in the Calamity Raven Church, accounting for about one-eighth of them.

Just in case, Archduke Jonathan also prepared a [10,000-kilometer teleportation scroll] and a [Breaking Cone (gold)] specially used to break through the blockade. Since the assassination of King Nord, many nobles will prepare to break through when they go out. Space blockade measures

Marquis Henry discovered Prince Carter's infiltration, which was one of the reasons why he was determined to defect.

All operations were carried out in secret, and Prince Carter was indeed fascinated by Penny Lancaster and ignored some recent vital intelligence]

…

Compared with the information about Anna, the third princess, the information provided by the strategy module is more specific.

Even Carter Pendragon's backhand was clearly exposed.

In fact, Prince Carter has far more power in the giant city of Lentax than outsiders see.

His infiltration work into the city can even be traced back to several months ago.

If we really wanted to fight, this guy would have one-third of the strength of the giant city of Lentax.

In addition, even some members of the Calamity Raven Church belong to him.

Although the proportion is small, the church is an organization with fanatical beliefs, and it can be infiltrated in this way.

It is enough to show that Prince Carter's secret actions are somewhat brilliant.

Of course, it is not ruled out that these are the handiwork of Grand Duke Jonathan.

A scheming grand duke is much more difficult to deal with than a stupid young prince.

The Grand Duke does not need to be present in person, but his decisions can affect thousands of miles away.

But speaking of it, Zong Shen still doesn't understand why Grand Duke Jonathan insists on supporting Carter?

According to betting theory, Carter had no merit compared to his siblings.

Just as he was about to inquire further about the strategy module, there was a sudden noise in front of the food stall not far away.
