Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 695 In Solconan

November 11, La Rochelle, Salconen, Palais-Royal.

Anastasia hasn't been doing well lately.

In the first month of taking the throne, she had so many things to worry about that it made her head explode.Even though she had been on the throne for ten months in advance and was already very familiar with these matters, the experience after she actually ascended the throne was still very different from the "internship period".

She was busy until late at night every day, and the dark circles under her eyes that were already deep and indelible became even deeper. When she was sitting on the throne, the ministers below thought that she would fall asleep with her head tilted.

But the young queen has shown amazing resilience, and even when trivial matters are mixed with important ones, she still arranges everything in an orderly manner.

While dealing with these government affairs, Anastasia Herman rejoiced more than once that she had a great father and had promoted a young genius with outstanding abilities——

The call-up order issued by the former made it impossible for the nobles of the kingdom to make any fools at this time.The time when the new king ascended the throne was often the period when the central power was weakest. No matter how peaceful the past was, the central government would eventually bleed a lot in this period.

However, since the nobles were still busy with self-cultivation, and it happened to be the autumn harvest period in many places at that time, the north was still recruiting troops continuously, so those local nobles had no time to curry favor with the central officials and seek benefits.

Although there are also some reasons why the queen ascended the throne without warning, the call-up order has laid an absolute foundation for this.

Then, it was the young Marquis Cyril Adrian who contributed to her.

The outstanding performance of the young man in the Port of New Orville has brought huge benefits to La Rochelle's diplomacy and commerce in the Port of New Orville; Nature is also a direct beneficiary.

It stands to reason that the Southern Group was the most difficult target for her when she ascended the throne, but this time the cunning Duke Marcellus did not give much reaction after hearing that she had ascended the throne, and only offered a congratulatory gift .

Since Duke Marcellus didn't express his opinion, the remaining southern nobles naturally couldn't jump at will.And Anastasia gave them more freedom of foreign trade, making them settle down quickly.

Now all parts of the kingdom are still stable, but she doesn't know when the people of Ao San Emma will launch an attack - she doesn't take any chances about it, those vicious hungry wolves will never let the neighboring country's weak opportunity go .

"Your Majesty, Your Excellency Nicole Roderick seeks an audience."

"Come in... wait, Roderick?"

Anastasia suddenly regained her spirits: Nicole Roderick left Solkonan as early as February this year to take up his new "post", and suddenly appeared at this time, obviously something important things.

In her expectant eyes, Heloise Trewell walked into the room with the middle-aged mage and bowed deeply.

"Excuse me, Lord Roderick, is everything going well?"

"Your Majesty." Roderick said seriously without much smile on his face, "My business is going well, the Tower of Stars has been re-activated, it can protect Salconan and Derek province, and I also have new skills There are already eyebrows."

"Good thing, good thing!" Anastasia stood up excitedly and clapped her hands together.

Star Tower, a long-abandoned mage tower, stands in the barren hills of Derek province.

I don't think it means that a powerful mage walks into the abandoned mage tower, finds the main control switch and turns it on, so that the mage tower can be reactivated.Each of the mage towers left over from the previous civilization is full of mysteries, and no matter how skilled a mage is, it is extremely easy to die in it.

It is said that a mage tower in the south lost the lives of three professional mages in order to activate it, and it took nearly ten years.

And Roderick successfully activated the mage tower in just a few months, which is undoubtedly a great joy.

"After activating the Tower of Stars, I received magic power from...another Mage Tower."

"Have you received the magic power of other mage towers?"

"Is it a similar resonance—or attraction? It's hard for me to describe. It's probably similar to bats flying, looking at each other, and responding to specific objects. All in all, it's a principle like this, and I received it. The magic of other mage towers."

Roderick was also a little confused when he narrated these things, and Anastasia, who was the audience, naturally didn't understand even more, so she could only spread her hands and asked back:

"Then... which mage tower is it?"

"Yes, the mage tower in the east."

"The one in the east? Isn't that the Green Tower of Amathir? But the Green Tower is our self-built tower in La Rochelle, so how can it resonate with the abandoned Mage Tower?"

"No, no, Your Highness, it is definitely not a green tower. If it is a green tower, the natural breath of magic power should overflow, and this magic power feels like being in a blacksmith's shop." , the smell of metal—yes, the smell of metal.”

Roderick said hesitantly, "If my guess is correct, its location should be..."

He walked quickly to the map hanging in the room, reached out and landed on a place north of Amasir:
Silikie.

"Sciliki?! Isn't that the place of Sir Adrian?" Anastasia was surprised, and suddenly remembered what she said when Darrow Raskin accompanied her in Silikey:
"Silicy is developing at an unimaginable speed, whether it is agriculture, commerce, industry, or even academia. There are reasons for the integration of foreign races. Dryads, dwarves, elves, and foreign races provide various aspects. productivity, so that it can develop in an all-round way.”

"But the more critical point may be that the relics of a previous civilization they unearthed are also an extension of the current Mage Academy:
Lurea Institute.

The novel products you have seen are all reproductions and combinations of Lurea technology and today's technology. Great changes have taken place in Seoul..."

"Lurea...Lurea Research Institute!"

Anastasia reacted.

She briefly told Roderick something about the Lurea Research Institute, which made the mage who had become the master of the Star Tower like history gasp in admiration.

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that the Tower of Stars was related to such a civilization relic... It seems that I need to find time to go to Amasir. But Earl Adrian... Oh, is the Marquis Adrian very busy recently? ?”

"I think so..." As Anastasia was speaking, there was an unexpected, rapid clatter of horses' hoofs in the corridor, followed by the sound of something heavy hitting, and a horse foaming at the mouth Sliding to the door, the knight on horseback stumbled to his feet, rushed in out of breath, and shouted:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, urgent report!"

"Osan Emma launched an attack on Amasir and the city of Hylia in the Adler area on the 14th. The number of people is unknown, and the current battle situation is unknown!"

The messenger rushed from the central part of the Volgo Province to Solconan at full speed, and ran down three good horses mixed with the blood of the dragon, and finally passed the news to Anastasia's family. in the ear.

The young queen shot up, there was no shock in her eyes, only seriousness:

"Here they come, they are finally here!"

"Ao San Emma!"

"Decree that the Eighth Army and the Ninth Army go to Amasir immediately to support the Marquis of Adrian." She tore off a heavy and luxurious coat from a hanger on one side, wrapped her hands around her body, and strode forward He walked out of the room without hesitation, "Notify all the ministers to come to the court meeting immediately."

"Your Majesty!" Roderick followed closely behind her, and said, "Can the Marquis of Adrian withstand such a sudden attack by the people of Albion Saint Emma?

"The Marquis of Adrian has been preparing for this day for a long time, Roderick, we have been preparing to deal with the attack of the people of Saint Emma for a long time."

Roderick choked for a moment - he was indeed amazing and talented on the way of the mage, but this does not mean that he has an excellent political vision. Naturally, he couldn't understand why Anastasia and Adrian We have been prepared for this.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" was all he could ask.

"Yes, of course - if you can mobilize your Star Tower to support Amasir, that will be the greatest help to Amasir."

"But the Tower of Stars can only radiate to..." Roderick was talking, and suddenly realized that he was completely in the position of being led by Anastasia during the conversation.

Has this Her Majesty the Queen, who was extremely humble in front of her last year, grown to this point unknowingly?

He examined it in his mind, then put away the words just now, and said instead: "Understood, Your Highness, I will study the possible technology of the Star Tower as soon as possible, and strive to play a role as soon as possible. I will take my leave first."

Anastasia nodded hastily, but without even turning her head, she quickly left with Heloise Trewell, disappearing from Roderick's sight.

And the owner of the Tower of Stars stood there, dazed for two or three seconds, and then put a hand on his shoulder.

He turned his head and looked back, and there was an old man in a sacrificial robe standing behind him.

"Your Majesty Photiou." He bowed and greeted, "I'm glad to see you look so good."

"Roderick, we haven't seen each other for a long time." Photio said with a chuckle, "I had a hunch a few years ago, but I didn't expect you to open the Star Tower faster than I imagined."

"It's just a fluke." Roderick said, and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, have you already known about Amasil's invasion by Saint Emma?"

Photios watched him calmly: "Of course."

"Then... what will happen to the Primordial Church?"

This question is on the cutting edge—La Rochelle and Ao St. Emma also believe in the origin, and Danya is their common god of belief.When the two countries go to war, what cannot be avoided is the attitude of the Church of Origin.

Under the original law code, countries cannot go to war at will, and maintaining the stability of civilization is a necessary necessity.

However, the Primordial Church has been passed down to this day, and under the system of the Alma Saint Emma Church, most of the senior members of the Primordial Church of Al Saint Emma came from the nobles of Alma Saint Emma.

Now that the gods have already turned into stars and disappeared, and they will not respond to the prayers of believers, there is no need to doubt whether faith can stand in front of interests: it is obviously untenable.

In a war, the Primordial Church will inevitably favor Ao St. Emma.The same is true in the historical time and space of the game. The Primordial Church of Saint Emma did not impose too many restrictions on the aggression of Saint Emma, ​​but ordered La Rochelle's Primordial Church Army not to participate in the attack. In the war of St. Emma.

This also caused a large number of La Rochelle's church troops to withdraw from the church, and spontaneously participated in the war between Amasil and Ao San Emma as civilians.

For example, today's Sirikit Army, the commander-in-chief of the shield guard, and the knight Rod Sher who has the name of "sacrifice" in the game time and space.

Facing such a sharp question, Photius just looked at Roderick quietly.

After a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said:

"Roderick."

"You know, I'm also a La Rochelle."

Roderick was stunned for a moment, and before he could taste what Photios said, he heard Photios say: "I will go to Amasir immediately to meet the Marquis of Adrian."

"Then, I'll go to O'Santa Emma and meet my 'old friends'."

"Your Majesty!" Roderick couldn't help shouting when he realized the reaction, "During the war between the two countries, what you did was tantamount to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth—"

"I have already selected the new bishop, my deputy, I hope you will give him a lot of support."

After he finished speaking, he walked to the courtyard of the palace and raised his hand forward:
The golden magic power flowed in his palm, and gradually took shape in the air. A luxurious and solemn carriage appeared in front of them after a while, and the snow-white flying horse spread its wings and neighed.

"You, haven't you seen Your Majesty?" Roderick asked hastily, looking at Roderick who opened the door and was about to step into the carriage without stopping.

"Anastasia...she is strong enough to support this country."

After he finished speaking, he didn't look at Roderick again, stepped into the car, and closed the door.

The pegasus let out a joyful cry, and then drove the carriage soaring into the sky, flying over the entire palace, and over the entire Solkonan.

And Photios sat by the car window, watching the steeple belonging to the palace church below getting smaller and smaller, gradually turning into a point, and finally disappeared from sight.

"May the stars... shine on La Rochelle.

Shoddy, despicable, violent, who should be judged...

Danya, when will you bring down your glory? "

He muttered softly, then closed his eyes.

[The map will be released tomorrow! 】
