Master Overlord - Chapter 368
“Look, we’re wrong again. That child is amazing. I thought he would die this time.”
In the study of the prime minister’s tower, Archbishop belles and Prime Minister Flavi sat opposite each other. The guards and servants were waved back to the door. In the large study, there was only the sound of two people talking softly.
“It’s really surprising, and the result is completely unexpected.” the prime minister’s golden eyes looked at the letter paper on the table, and then fell on the figure opposite. “Don’t worry about the emotion, all our plans for Shanghe collar ended in failure. Now the child defeated the Barrett family and captured Ted Barrett with thunder. It seems that it has become an existence that can’t be ignored in the north.”
“Ah, the tutela family…” Archbishop berus seemed not to hear the prime minister’s reminder, and his thoughts fell into a moment of memory, and then said with emotion, “They should be the oldest family in the kingdom. Yes, they should be. I remember there was such a record in Xuecheng. Who would have thought that we all thought that the child would die soon, but we didn’t think about it, but we were surprised again and again. It’s really worthy of the tustra family. Its vitality is as tenacious as ever…”
Prime Minister Flavi is a pragmatic man. The Archbishop’s long chatter is obviously not what he wants to hear at the moment.
“He is getting stronger and stronger now. The tens of thousands of slaves we gave didn’t come in handy at all. We thought it would be a protracted war. Unexpectedly, it only lasted a month and ended in the defeat of the Barrett family. Baylus, this is far from our plan. We need to come up with new solutions.”
“There is always an accident.” looking at the dignified prime minister, the Archbishop showed a placid smile: “Do you see? We, the count of Lingfeng castle, are not only good at fighting, but also good at growing up in war. Now, not only the river leader, but also Cumbria has implemented reform, and the people he supports are the enemies of the past. It’s amazing. If I have the opportunity, I really want to see him in person. A 17-year-old boy…”
“Therefore, we have to re understand the role of Lingfeng castle.” prime minister Flavi said, “in addition, we have to find a way to get the Warcraft bow in the other party’s hand. If it weren’t for this powerful bow and arrow, the winner of this war might be Ted Barrett.”
“Why, craftsmen can’t copy?” Archbishop Baylor asked in surprise.
As for the Warcraft bow, they received the relevant information as early as after the Allied forces in the East attacked Shanghe collar. A month ago, they had obtained very detailed drawings and began to let the bowmakers in the capital of the king imitate it in large quantities. It is reasonable that there should be no problem.
The prime minister shook his head and said in disappointment, “except that it can be used by knights on horseback, the effect is not more prominent than the long bow, which is far from what Kiel Green said.”
“I received news that the Barrett family tried to buy a Warcraft bow, but Arthur tustra refused. To make this kind of bow and arrow, we need a tree named ‘Yalong’.”
“Yalong tree…” Archbishop berus searched his memory and found that he had never heard of a tree named Yalong.
Looking at him, the prime minister explained: “this kind of tree only grows on the snow peaks of the Tunguska mountains. It is rare and difficult to cut down.”
“In other words, if you want to get the Warcraft bow, you can only buy it from Lingfeng castle?” Archbishop Baylor shook his head with a bitter smile and said with a smile, “first the weapons and armor, and now the Warcraft bow. According to me, Shanghe collar is not a remote place at all. It is clearly a treasure land. Oh, yes, and the wine that makes the nobles drunk.”
“We have to find a way to get this kind of bow and arrow from each other. According to intelligence, the army of the Barrett family did not even get close to the wall of Xiangguo town fortress in this war. The siege tools such as stone throwing vehicles prepared were also suppressed by the Warcraft bow with a longer range and could not play a role.” Prime Minister Flavi’s face was frozen. He felt helpless and dissatisfied that he could not imitate the Warcraft bow.
“But since the child has rejected the Barrett family, he will also reject us. You also said that the wood for making bows and arrows is scarce and difficult to cut down. With its role, Lingfeng castle can not be sold to anyone, which is related to their safety. Arthur tustra, the child, should also know this very well.”
Seeing the embarrassment of the prime minister’s face, Archbishop Baylor thought for a moment and then said, “as I say, since this is the case, we should give up in time and there is no need to spend more time on it. Anyway, the Warcraft bow will only appear in the hands of the knight of Lingfeng castle, which does not pose any threat or disadvantage to us.”
After thinking for a moment, Prime Minister Flavi seemed to give up the idea of continuing to plan the Warcraft bow and asked, “the marriage between the kewilt family and the farit family has been completed. Now Ted Barrett has lost another battle and suffered heavy losses. Do you think we still have a chance to win him?”
“This is our good chance!” Archbishop Baylor affirmed. “The disastrous defeat of the Barrett family is beyond everyone’s expectation. The great victory of Lingfeng castle has temporarily brought the North back to a calm state, but if we can take the opportunity to win over the Barrett family, it will be a great harvest!”
“In that case, send someone to contact Ted Barrett again,” said Prime Minister Flavi, with a hint of teasing in his golden eyes, “but I’m afraid it will dissatisfy our diligent Lord Davidson.”
“It seems that the tax and debt issues are not enough to keep our Lord Davidson busy.” Archbishop Bayles smiled, “but it doesn’t matter. I’ll explain to him myself later. Lord Davidson will understand. It’s just to complete our plan. I hope he won’t shut me out.”
“By the way, let’s talk about Arthur tustra’s child.” Archbishop Baylor brought the topic back to Arthur. “I think we may try to repair our relationship with him. I have a hunch that the rise of Lingfeng castle will have unexpected gains for our plans in the north. We don’t have much time. Just, the child doesn’t like my people.”
“I’ll think about it. We really need to re-examine the role of the river collar,” said Prime Minister Mond Flavi, who seemed reluctant to continue talking about the river collar, “It’s been long enough for the wild people to enter the East. The food in averier county should be running out. Now they have enough weapons in their hands. We should think of ways to let these guys play their due role. This war is what we should expect most.”
