Arad's unruly savior
Chapter 3759 Borrowed Money
"My eldest sister seems to be keeping her bottom line now, confident and calm, but if she is pushed into a corner, she will really reveal her other side, disregarding family affection and taking ruthless action..."
The Second Princess recalled the mirror dimension that Ye Lin had mentioned. The stories that happened there were not like the main dimension which only caused a few ripples, but instead set off a huge storm.
The other Emperor Leon Heinrich was as ambitious as the main dimension. He intended to take advantage of the disaster of the Destruction Era that severely damaged the Principality of Belmar and the Kingdom of Vanes, while the Delos Empire suffered relatively less losses, to sweep across the continent of Arad, annex the two countries, and then directly attack Xuzu to finally complete the ultimate hegemony of unifying the world.
However, he suddenly fell seriously ill and was bedridden. No matter how many famous doctors he consulted, they could not help him. They could only conclude that he was "cursed" and he eventually died.
In order to seize the throne of power, the princes and princesses of the mirror dimension launched a bloody battle. The undercurrents in the empire surged and turned directly into a bloody scene. In the end, Celia killed Prince Vann.
Therefore, compared to the mirror dimension, the current situation in the main dimension is relatively calm. There are open and covert struggles, but no bloodshed. The two sides have not yet reached the point of completely tearing each other apart.
The second princess whispered in her heart:
"But on the other hand, Brother Franz, who used the power of the blood curse, was not a good person either. Who is more kind and righteous? The winner will be crowned as a king and the loser will be a bandit. The winner will have the splendid halo of an emperor, and future scholars will find rational reasons for his behavior. The loser will be written with shame in ten thousand ways."
In the airship heading to the Stone Snow Region, Celia suddenly asked with a smile: "Judy, have you noticed that my sister seems to be different from the past few days?"
Judy answered without hesitation: "Her Highness the Second Princess seems to be a cultivator. I vaguely sensed a magical power lingering in her body. She should be at the professional level at the moment."
"What magic? It's energy, right? My sister's virginity has been broken, and you know that she wants to have a baby soon." Celia showed an unfathomable smile. Judy didn't dare to talk about the royal family members behind their backs, she didn't care.
She gave Ye Lin a sincere suggestion that her sister was as beautiful as a flower and had a delicate body. Instead of having to marry someone else in the future, it would be better for her "master" to keep her as his.
This is an excellent example of a star slave who always thinks about his master.
Celia's airship disappeared from sight, and Noshadiya then walked slowly around the town of Shatli, accompanied by the guard Apona, the leader of the Iron Wolf Knights Hyde, and two female knights of the Iron Wolf Knights, who were responsible for protecting and facilitating the life of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
"Hyde, you have been stationed in Chateli for a long time. Do you think there is anything good about this place?"
Hyde was a straightforward person, and replied: "No, there is not much grass and water here, so there is no human habitation. It is because it is the frontier territory of the empire, and it is necessary to maintain the integrity of the territory and not give up an inch of land, so the former Chateli was established."
Sometimes he thought that he should just give Shatli to the Bantu people. Such a barren place had no chance of development at all, and only those barbarians of the Bantu people would treat it as a treasure. Of course, this was just a fleeting thought.
Not an inch of the country's territory can be lost.
After thinking for a while, Hyde added: "If the Bantu are willing to trade with us, there is a chance to develop this place into a trading place similar to the Afaria camp, using business to boost popularity and development."
However, the Bantu people were unwilling to put all their eggs in one cage, and had always deliberately chosen the Principality of Belmar rather than the nominally most powerful Delos Empire in terms of trade.
Finally, Hyde said: "It is almost impossible to rely on local resources for development."
He and the Second Princess had very little friendship, and were limited to knowing each other. His wife Hannah had been to the afternoon tea hosted by the Second Princess several times, and she described her as a model of elegance, the noble flower of the empire, and a perfect lady, but there seemed to be infinite depth hidden in her eyes.
"I have a few ideas, Hyde, how about you review them with me."
She already had some preliminary ideas on how to revitalize the empire's second northern territory.
Hyde nodded in agreement on the surface, but he disagreed in his heart. He was used to seeing many mediocre nobles who, in order to show their ability, came up with many messy ideas in a fit of anger, which only caused trouble to the lives of the people. He was so angry that he wanted to twist their heads off.
It was the second princess's first time to visit Chateli. She only walked around once. To put it bluntly, she hadn't even warmed up the stool under her butt. What useful methods could she come up with?
The second princess didn't pay attention to Hyde's subtle expression. She certainly understood and understood why he looked like that, and continued:
"It is indeed difficult to develop by relying on local resources. We can only rely on external forces. Then, instead of clinging to the little resources of the Bantu people, we should set our sights further, to the divine realm!"
"The navigation channel between the God Realm and the Heaven Realm has been established, but the communication with our Arad Continent has only just begun, and only a small number of people have arrived. If we can place the channel for the God Realm to descend in the empire's second territory, it may bring earth-shaking changes to this place."
"Also, although the natural resources in the Second Territory are not abundant, there are actually many ancient relics hidden underground, such as the former feudal states and even earlier historical relics. Perhaps we can make some articles about them..."
When Hyde heard the Second Princess's thoughts, his contemptuous attitude immediately faded. The method seemed to make sense, but it was quite difficult and required high-level discussions.
But it is enough to prove that the Second Princess has done her homework on the Second Territory, and it is not just empty talk.
"Hyde, you are finally back, are you going hunting?"
At an intersection in the small town of Chateli, three men in different attire suddenly appeared.
One of them was of sturdy build, covered in dark red armor, and had an unparalleled heroic demeanor.
The other one was thinner, with calm features, short blue hair, light silver armor, and a white cloak. He had the temperament of a white-robed scholar-general.
There was another person who was only wearing a coat in the still somewhat cold weather, with his chest exposed and his skin covered with strange magic patterns.
The second princess narrowed her eyes slightly. She felt an extremely powerful aura from these three people. There was a bloody feeling of oppression, hiding a terrible power. Moreover, these three people had one thing in common, that is, the weapons they used were spears.
Hyde is also a lancer... She has heard a strange rumor that lancers are born from the same origin, so they have a special connection that attracts and draws them close to each other.
Moreover, magic lancers would often engage in deadly battles with each other, and would engage in horrific acts such as devouring each other's magic lances, so the second princess was both surprised and not surprised that these people were able to get together without fighting.
The three men approached Hyde, and the most burly one said, "I heard that there is a demonic wind sweeping across the black land that fell from another dimension recently, and a huge black shadow flashed by. Do you want to go and take a look?"
"Please don't come any closer." Apona quickly dodged and stood in front of the second princess, her fingers clasped on the weapon at her waist, ready to strike.
The man with the largest physique seemed to have just noticed the second princess beside Hyde. He looked her up and down and said teasingly, "Could this beautiful girl be my sister-in-law? Hyde, introduce her to me?"
"Gerald, don't be disrespectful. She is the second princess of our Delos Empire, Nosadia." Hyde quickly gave a look, you guys, be honest, stop yelling, my scalp is numb. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything, because the second princess has announced her relationship with Ye Lin in Wetalen.
Hyde then introduced the three of them to Nosadia, who were actually all from the Empire, but were now adventurers.
"So it's the second princess. Seeing is believing. I'm honored. Sorry for the offense just now." Gerardel smiled and bowed, then stopped. There was a faint smell of blood on him.
The second princess smiled slightly, her eyes swept over the three of them, and she immediately had a guess in her heart, and said: "Gerald, who is known as the Immortal God of War, you have joined the Imperial Army, been promoted all the way, and then suddenly disappeared."
"To this day, there are still legends about you in the army. It is said that no matter how serious the injuries you suffered on the battlefield, you seemed to be able to recover miraculously, and no matter how powerful the enemy was, you could always win."
Hearing the Second Princess's evaluation of himself, Gerardel was secretly surprised. This princess didn't seem as weak and delicate as she appeared. She was very calm and peaceful when facing the bloody smell on her body. On the contrary, her guard kept staring at him nervously.
He raised his hand and smoothed his hair back, saying, "I'm ashamed that you know me. I enjoy the thrill of bloody battles, but I hate fighting for inexplicable reasons. The empire at that time had no reason to fight, and I was tired of it."
Hyde frowned. He wanted to ask Gerardel to be more careful when speaking in front of the princess, but then he thought that he felt the same way and hated wars without any justification, so he didn't want to speak against his conscience.
"That was the empire of the past. The empire now is different. The empire fights for its own people." The second princess spoke calmly and eloquently, then looked at the white-robed scholar general and said:
"Shi Ku, the winner of a certain Imperial Arena, a bloody battle involving nearly a hundred people, all of whom were masters from all over the world, but in the end, you were the only one who survived."
Shi Ku had a handsome face but no expression. He nodded as his response.
He didn't want to recall too much about what happened in the Imperial Arena, an experience that changed his life and was filled with endless darkness and pain.
The second princess looked at the last man with magic patterns on his body and said, "You are a member of the revolutionary army, right? It is rumored that your magic gun can create darkness."
The man with the magic pattern nodded slightly. He didn't have a good impression of the royal family, but he also understood that all countries were at peace at the moment and it was not appropriate to start any more disputes.
Hyde was extremely surprised. Nosadia was so calm and composed, and as knowledgeable as Hyde was. If he hadn't been watching right beside her, he would have thought it was the eldest princess Celia.
Returning to the topic, Hyde said, "The black land fell from another dimension, causing a sensation and attracting countless adventurers."
"It's true that someone has benefited from the ancient city there, which makes people envious. However, the Black Earth fell a long time ago. Adventurers have scraped three layers of the land there. At the same time, there are also priests stationed there. What secrets can there be?"
"What you heard was deliberately released by some bored people."
Hyde waved his hand, indicating that there couldn't be any secrets on the Black Land, and he still had responsibilities to fulfill. The Iron Wolf Knights needed to be stationed in Shatley and couldn't leave at will.
I can have a nice drink with you guys tonight, but going out... I really can't.
Unless they wait a few months, when the Iron Wolf Knights complete their mission and return to Vetalon, they will have a one to two month vacation.
"Yeah, the black earth is almost being turned into white earth by adventurers." Gerardel couldn't help but complain. As soon as they heard about some ruins, adventurers would rush there like ants attracted by candy.
"And in our realm, it's not easy to find a truly dangerous place."
After a few seconds, Gerardel's eyes lit up and he said, "Let's go to Vala Island in the Principality of Belmar and fight with the dragons there. They are all powerful creatures. What do you think?"
"I'm not interested. I'm not a battle fanatic, but I can still take a look." Shi Ku said concisely.
The man with the magic pattern nodded as well. He didn't have a strong desire to fight, but he was happy to see something new. He had never been to Wala Island in his life.
Gerardel laughed and said, "That's it. We can also pass through Huttonmar on the way. I wonder if Ye Lin is at home. He is so arrogant and has the title of the strongest adventurer. I am not convinced."
"This place is thousands of kilometers away from Wala Island. It will take a long time to get there on foot." Shi Ku suddenly sighed.
Then, the second princess saw Hyde's face change, as if he had seen a ghost. He said bluntly that he and Her Royal Highness the Princess had official business to deal with, and he walked hurriedly as if he was about to run away.
"Want to run? You have to borrow this money today!" Gerardel immediately burst into fighting spirit, a blood-stained halberd appeared, and the crazy bloody smell materialized into an illusion. The earth was covered with corpses, and all living things were in ruins...
Hyde, also a magic lancer, was unable to resist the provocation of someone of the same origin. This was the fate of a magic lancer. He was forced to materialize his own weapon and turned into two blood shadows with Gerardel, rushing towards the outside of Chateli and starting a fierce battle in the desert.
Soon, Shi Ku and the man with the magic pattern were also attracted and joined in. The sharp beams of their spears were like meteors streaking through the sky. Then the night swept in, and the fog was deep, tinged with ominousness.
In almost the blink of an eye, the place where they fought turned into ruins and its original appearance could no longer be seen.
Apona, who was watching from afar, could not hide her shock and murmured, "Is this the magic lancer? It is said that their magic lances have a mysterious origin and are natural killers and a sign of death."
"Yes."
The second princess stood on a high slope and said, "We in Wetallen also have a group of magic lancers who hunt monsters and devour their power to become stronger. The strongest among them, Max, is not inferior to these people. It's a pity that he died on the Red Moon Festival and took the initiative to seek death to warn those who come after him."
That group of magic lancers once followed the Crown Prince Vann Franz. Later, when the Crown Prince fell into corruption and fled to the border of the empire, that group of magic lancers did not follow him. It is unknown who is in control of them now.
…………
After a fierce battle, Hyde was "borrowed" and cursed the three of them as inhuman.
"Don't worry, we will bring you dragon specialties." Shi Ku, who usually had no expression, smiled.
