Chapter 478 Gathering in the Moonlight Court

Hearing that Teresia was also planning to go to the Moonlight Court, Qingkong couldn’t help but smiled and said: “Not long ago, I received news that the temple of the Moonlight Palace has started operation, and Archangel Gold personally presides over the Moonlight Palace. You In charge of the Sanctuary of Shenglun City, why do you think of going to the Moonlight King’s Court to pay homage to the World Tree at this time?”

Teresia picked up the tea and drank it. During this period of time, she had adapted to life in the secular world. It was a special enjoyment to drink afternoon tea in her spare time.

As for Qingkong’s doubts, Teresia answered straightforwardly: “I have an intuition that you have the answers I want, and all kinds of mysteries in you are worthy of my deeper understanding.”

Teresia turned her head to look at the clear sky, with a look in her eyes that wanted to see through the other party.

Clear Sky also looked at Theresia, with an incomprehensible smile on his face: “Moonlight Royal Court welcomes all friends with good intentions to visit. It’s just that there are a lot of people who are going to visit the World Tree this time. I don’t know what will happen. things.”

Theresia asked: “Aside from me, who else wants to go to the Moonlight King’s Court?”

Qing Kong didn’t answer, she held a teacup and invited Theresia: “You’ll know when you arrive, drink tea!”

“I look forward to this trip even more.”

A few days later, the new Marquis of Meteor, the chief minister of the empire, announced that he would lead a business delegation to inspect the western border of the empire. One of the purposes of this trip is to inspect the construction status of the Western Territory Railway; the other purpose is to strengthen the development plan of the Western Territory, so that the wind of civilization can blow every corner of the Western Territory as soon as possible.

But this seemingly ordinary inspection made some people feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.

The Crescent Oasis where the second prince is stationed is the only way for the empire to enter the western region. Meteor, the chief minister of the empire, has just dealt with Sinclair and the Northern Legion. Will this trip to the West be able to clean up the second prince?

The business group of the chief assistant of the empire is still in preparation, and waves of messengers have already set off from the city of St. Lun with various news and are rushing in all directions.

The entire court is watching Luke’s whereabouts, doing everything possible to search for his information.

Imperial Palace, the imperial cabinet meeting.

This is the last meeting before Meteor’s tour of the western region, so there are many more topics prepared than usual.

Ible is now the cabinet minister and concurrently the imperial finance minister. He first reported to Queen Christina the tax situation of the empire this quarter, saying that the empire’s finances are now very healthy and can fully support the Marquis of Meteorite’s proposal for the reorganization plan of the Royal First Magical Legion and the shipbuilding plan of the Royal Ocean Escort Fleet.

In addition, the Imperial Bank formulated a plan for the protection of the circulation of the Reichsmark, and selected pilot cities to gradually cancel the large-value transactions of gold and silver certificates within the empire.

Viscount Iscorran serves as the cabinet minister and concurrently the Minister of Public Security of the Empire. The issues he raised were to ban the private soldiers of the nobility, set up a security bureau in the aristocratic territories, have professional magistrates maintain the city’s security, and replace the privileges of the nobility in their territories with the legal system.

This topic involves too much scope. After a long discussion, Queen Christina decided to first make a detailed implementation plan by the Imperial Security Headquarters. When and how to implement it will be discussed later.

Mrs. Mihir, as the cabinet minister, served as the chief technical advisor of the empire. Since the angels forcibly descended and surrounded the palace, Empress Christina has asked the major research institutions of the empire to implement integration and concentrate their efforts on developing extraordinary soldiers to deal with possible future conflicts of advanced combat power.

The Chief Technical Advisor of the Empire is a technical officer specially set up to integrate various institutions of the Empire.

Mrs. Mihir reported to Queen Christina the progress of the development of the three extraordinary combat power projects in the empire.

The three extraordinary combat power projects are: the Magic Titan being developed by the Raging City Alchemist Association; the extraordinary warrior hosted by Qingkong and developed by the Oulu Academy for the Moonlight Royal Court; the Golden Shield Warrior led by the Imperial Extraordinary Species Research Center.

Ms. Mihir is mainly responsible for the research and development of Golden Shield Warrior.

The technical basis of the Golden Shield Warrior is the mature crusader technology. Through extraordinary transformation, the Golden Shield Warrior will have a stronger physique, and then endowed with armor and weapons made using top-level alchemy, the Golden Shield Warrior will have powerful attack and defense power.

In order to allow the Golden Shield Warriors to fly, the Imperial Bureau of Heavy Industry is developing individual steam wings.

In addition to these, there are many whimsical researches being developed.

Agatha brought information from the northern battlefield.

Attorney Association Negotiations.

According to the intelligence from Dongdu, the voice of anti-war within the Yate County United is getting louder and louder. Especially after entering the summer, the impact of the war on the production of Yate County Union has been infinitely magnified. As the offensive side, Attorney United cannot obtain enough supplies from the occupied area, and the logistical pressure is much higher than that of the empire. After the loss of Songta Port, relying entirely on land supplies has increased costs.

The industrial structure of Yate County United is far from perfect as that of the Golden Shield Empire. Some people made a lot of money in the war, and some people not only did not get the war dividends, but faced the risk of bankruptcy.

To talk, or not to talk?

Queen Christina asked about the new Chief Assistant.

Luke, who had already decided on the strategy of Yate County United, replied: “Talk, of course we have to talk, and we must show the outside world the empire’s efforts for peace. But I don’t think there is much sincerity in this negotiation of Yate County United. It may easily spit out the occupied area, let alone pay war reparations and admit defeat.

The opening of the negotiations by Yate County United this time should be more for the people in their country. In the end, they will definitely blame us for breaking the peace. ”

Agatha agreed with Luke’s analysis, and she added: “According to the intelligence obtained by the Bureau of Secret Intelligence, the Yate County United is mobilizing their overseas colonies, and it is expected that the first batch of servants will enter the northern border after the end of autumn.” battlefield.

In addition, the Yate County United Foreign Affairs Office has sent many groups of diplomats to visit the so-called free country in an attempt to isolate the empire internationally. Some of these countries promised to give economic assistance, and some directly sent mercenaries.

Winter War, the strength of the enemy in the north of the empire will increase greatly. ”

Queen Christina asked: “Does the cabinet have any countermeasures?”

Luke replied: “At this stage, the war between the Empire and the Yate County United is only a local war, far from the level of a war that will destroy the country. Most of these moves by the Yate County United are expected, and this is what I started. Reasons why spring wars are not recommended for being too aggressive.

Since it is a local war, the empire cannot affect its own development because of the war. In my opinion, to deal with the winter war from this year to next year, the main thing is to strengthen the Snow Army. Build more forts, store more supplies for the winter, and build a snow city defense network.

At the same time, the Raging City Armored Assault Division stationed in Songta Harbor will attack the flank of the Allied Army in Yate County to the west to reduce the frontal pressure of the Snow Army.

If there is a chance, the Raging City Fleet can look for the Yate County United Navy to fight a decisive battle at sea. No matter what the result is, the Royal Ocean Escort Fleet has already finished its world cruise at that time, and the Raging City Fleet can be replaced and repaired. ”

After listening to Luke’s countermeasures, Queen Christina nodded and said: “The cabinet’s response is very safe, and the empire should not be too nervous about the big move of Art County United. If he wants to talk, we will talk to him; if he wants to fight, we will Fight him. Take every step of our feet well, not easily influenced by the outside world.

Leave the peace talks to Agatha.

Meteor will go to the western region for inspection in the near future, and the deputy negotiator will be Viscount Iskran. ”

Agatha and Viscount Iskran took orders together: “Yes, Your Highness the Queen!”

Queen Christina asked Luke again: “Do you need any cooperation from the imperial court for your inspection of the Western Region this time?”

Luke replied: “No need. The main reason for this tour of the Western Territory is that there is a crisis that will affect the World Tree. Miss Weathering and I want to eliminate the danger.”

“I see.” Regarding the Moonlight Royal Court, Empress Christina didn’t want to ask any more questions, so she said: “I will issue an imperial order to the nobles of the Western Region in the name of the Queen of Jian, asking them to accept your assignment unconditionally.”

“Thank you, Your Royal Highness!”

The imperial cabinet meeting ended, and Luke immediately set off for the west.

The Gobi in the west is full of wind and sand, and the dunes are layered on top of each other. The sky was cloudless and the sun was shining brightly, scorching a caravan of camels walking in the desert.

There are seven camels and thirteen pack animals in the camel team. Large cargo boxes are tied to the back of the pack animals, and the guards who protect the camel team ride on the backs of the camels.

The guards all wore leather armor, with machetes hanging from their waists, and several emergency potions in their leather pouches. On the commercial roads in the western desert, their equipment was considered very high-end, enough to deal with most dangers.

The leader of the guards walking in front of the camel caravan was an old man with gray hair and beard. He had a big skeleton, but his physique was still strong. With sharp eyes and temperament like a lion in the wilderness, at first glance he is a ruthless character with a story.

Every time he walks a certain distance, the leader will ride a camel to the high point of the sand dune, and observe the surrounding situation with a newly bought telescope. Although most of the Sand Pirates have switched to business and lived a stable life with the support of Raging Waves City, but the busy business road has spawned a group of guys who want to get rich by robbing.

Sand Pirates will never stop, but they are much less than before.

The leader observed carefully through the telescope, not missing any details. Using my previous thinking of being a sand thief, I analyzed where I would set up an ambush.

Under the sand dunes, the camel team lined up and marched forward.

“Hi, can I have some water?”

A voice suddenly sounded from behind, the leader turned around instantly, the knife was already in his hand, and asked the person behind him, “Who are you?”

The man was wearing a gray linen smock, with a hood covering his face. Under the smock, his back was bulging, as if he was carrying something.

“I’m just an ordinary traveler, and I’m going to the Moonlight King’s Court.”

The leader did not let go of his guard. He held the knife in one hand, pinned the binoculars to his belt with the other hand, and took off the water bottle on his waist.

“The water is in the camel caravan, I have wine here, do you want to drink?”

“Wine would be better.” The man took off his hood, revealing a young man with purple hair.

“It’s all for you, I wish you a smooth journey!”

The leader threw the jug to the young man and was about to lead the camel away. Just now he was sure that there was no one around at all, but this person appeared behind him without a sound, and he was definitely an existence that could not be provoked.

“Please stay, I still have a few questions for you to answer.” The young man unscrewed the lid of the kettle, raised his head and took a deep sip of the wine, and said, “It’s not bad ale.”

The leader stopped: “I can’t delay too long.”

“A few simple questions.” The young man laughed, but the smile made people shudder: “Which direction is the Moonlight Court?”

“Are you going to the Moonlight King’s Court?”

“Yes. But my sense of direction is not good, especially here are all the same dunes.”

The leader pointed in one direction and said, “The Moonlight King’s Court is in that direction. As long as you don’t deviate, you will see the oasis in about seven days, which is the grassland of the ancestors. When you arrive at the grassland of the ancestors, you will not get lost when you go to the Moonlight King’s Court. The barbarians there are very hospitable.”

“That direction.” The young man looked at the leader’s pointing, but he still couldn’t see the end of the sand dunes. Thinking about his own experience in the past few days, he felt that he might not be able to find the Moonlight Royal Court with only one direction. So he said to the leader, “You take us to the Moonlight King’s Court.”

The leader quickly refused: “I’m sorry, the place we are going to is almost in the opposite direction of the Moonlight King’s Court. You only need to keep walking in this direction, and you can definitely reach the grassland of the ancestors.

Wait, you just said… ‘we’. ”

The leader looked around, only the young man in front of him was alone.

The young man smiled and said, “I didn’t ask for your opinion. We need a guide to take us to the Moonlight King’s Court, and we also need a new identity.”

At this moment, the leader felt a dark shadow blocking the sun, he looked up, and saw a group of angels slowly falling down from the sky. They wore black armor, and the wings flapping behind them were also black.

The leader sat on the sand in fright on the spot.

Fallen Angel!

is a fallen angel that appeared during the ancient war!

But after the ancient war ended, there were no more traces of the fallen angels, and it was said that they were extinct.

This time it turned out to be a group of people when they came out.

“You, you, you are fallen angels?” The leader was incoherent in fright.

“Garland…” A fallen angel in the air said to the young man: “Is this the idea you came up with, let a human take us to the Moonlight Royal Court.”

Garland spread his hands and said helplessly: “We have been in the depths of **** for too long, and we are not used to the direction of the surface. We have been searching in this desert for a month, but we have not found the Moonlight Court. No Do you have a better way to use a human as a guide?

And we can also pretend to be human businessmen and approach the World Tree quietly. ”

Another fallen angel said: “But we can’t fly with the whole caravan. You heard it just now. It takes seven days to walk.”

Garland said with a smile: “It’s only seven days… If we were to go to the Moonlight King’s Court by ourselves, are you sure we can find it within a month?”

No fallen angel raised any objections this time.

As a fallen angel who once fought in ancient wars, he was lost in the desert for a month.

What a shame!
