Old Sword Master

Instead, they waited for the Archons and his wife in a square between his City Lord Mansion and the Double God Temple. This slightly not positive attitude made the atmosphere of the meeting less enthusiastic.

Chapter 400 45

The Kaoka couple walked into the city of Utica and found that the festive atmosphere was pretty good. Most of the residents were preparing for the festival.

Put lights and festoons, clean the lintel, and hang a sign with your child’s name on the door. These are all parents who have children dedicated to the gods.

However, the city’s senior officials made no secret of their indifference to the consuls.

It was not only that City Lord Utica Budenis did not go out of the city to greet him, but many powerful figures in the city did not come, which made the “purple” Lev (very tǐng) mixed in the crowd happy.

In the High Priest of the two gods of Carthage, he launched a coup against Kaoka and got the protection of the two gods as the legal consul of the Republic of Carthage. This matter he worked for a long time under the command of Hannibal, and he was blindfolded. I didn’t think there was anything. Following Hannibal for so long, he was used to obeying orders.

Calm down, but very scary.

Although the Carthage two gods were not active enough in the recent war and were suppressed by the Roman wolf mother, the priests and soothing items that the church can provide are far inferior to the Roman ones.

But the knights are very active in this world and often manifest themselves.

Every time a man appeared, both Baal Harmon and Tannet were unpredictable and irresistible.

Directly resisting the giant whales that attacked the harbor and pointing out the desert thieves who desecrated the tombs of the sages are very effective.

“Purple’s” Lev has not actually seen the majesty of the Roman wolf mother with his own eyes, hasn’t seen K’s manifestation at the sacrifice in Rome, nor has he seen the madness of Old Cato.

It’s just that Antioch III and Torami’s recount of Wood’s defeat of Lao Cato’s performance in the Battle of Wenquan Pass, he can’t tell why, although his strength is good, but the fierce Roman Legion on the battlefield The strength is not very understanding.

Hannibal therefore determined that Wood could kill two consuls in Roman Legion and repel the spokesperson of the wolf mother on the ground. This strength was the only one in his life.

Then they engaged in a sacrifice with Torami, opening up the situation in the Seleucid Empire for Lord of the Storm, but also ruining their own situation, at least the “purple” Lev thought so. Yes, Antiochus III obviously no longer trusted them, and Hannibal’s subsequent contact with Wood was not very smooth. Hannibal said that Wood’s representative of Lord of the Storm would definitely come, but he did not say the same in the past. Reinforcement of the Carthage Republic? In the end, the reinforcements just across the sea didn’t wait. Only Hasdruba went through 3 or 1000 risks and brought another army. This time, Hasdruba and Margo are gone, Hannibal. There is no child, only Hannibal is left to fight.

Can they do it?

The “purple” Lev was troubled, but fortunately, this time they were able to draw a substantial supporter.

It’s obviously a lot more sure to do this in Utica than in the city of Carthage. Many elders in the Elder’s Council of Carthage are very difficult to deal with, and the intelligence agencies of the Republic are too powerful in the capital. All kinds of temptations and espionage are extremely difficult to carry out. On the surface, every elder is loyal to the two gods, and every elder has his family members sacrificed. It is extremely difficult to answer the question of which heart is resentful and no longer religious to the gods.

Although Hannibal is a great hero, he left Carthage since he was a boy, went to Spain and his father to develop territory, and then spent more than ten years in the Italian peninsula. He was very impossible about the ideas of the elders in Carthage. grasp.

Moreover, there were not many elders accompanying the Kaoka and his wife this time. According to information, there were only 2 elites and a dozen cores coming together, and the other elders would hold sacrifices in Carthage.

The charming female warlock Utica Budenis planned and considered together with Hannibal in the past few days, and controlled all the best friends of the two gods in the city, and the city’s troops were generally controlled in Uti. In the hands of Kabudenis, although the Kaokas also brought a 500-man guard, it was not too overwhelming.

“Your Excellency Kaoka, why did you come so late? I originally prepared a big entrance ceremony for you, but it was wasted.” Utica Budenis hypocritical complained, “I lost several thousand silver coins.”

The Kaokas arrived in Utica one day later than expected.

“Purple’s” Lev arranged a trivial matter upon their arrival to blow Kaoka’s reputation.

When questioned by Utica Budenis, Kaoka waved his hand again and again.

“There was a problem with a tax, and the compensation to Rome was not good enough. I delayed a day and checked it.” Kaoka didn’t realize that this was a trap, so obediently and honestly he said something unwelcome. “This involves more than ten 10000 silver coins and the safety of the people of Carthage. I can’t be careful, Utica Budenis City Lord. In fact, those who enter the city and so on are wasteful. At the difficult stage, we should not waste it.”

Utica Budnis sneaked: “You will save money for your master.”

It was then that Kaoka heard that the other party was actually harboring malicious intentions. He was quite embarrassed. Although it was indeed his performance to raise compensation, the Elder’s Council in Rome did not have the opportunity to attack when Carthage was at its weakest. Of course it seems to be extremely unremarkable.

The surrounding Utica citizens booed.

But the consul guards from Carthage just bowed their heads one after another, and no one was worried about searching for their own wealth and losing money to the enemy.

“The masters of the Archon are the Elder’s Council of Carthage and the people of Carthage.” Mrs. Kaoka quit, “Utica Budenis elder sister, many people dare to scold the Romans, but they can let the Romans There are very few people who do not come to invade. If you can prevent the Roman fleet from blocking our coastline, and prevent our merchants from losing all their property when the Romans come, then you can be a consul, or a queen. Anything.”

This counterattack left Utica Budenis speechless. Although the Roman Republic was defeated by Wood at the Hot Spring Pass, their navy still had an absolute advantage, even though Hannibal’s strengthened Seleucid fleet was only It can protect Syria’s coastline.

Hand over the entire fleet to Rome. The Carthage navy, which can only retain ten boats to deal with pirates, does not even have 10% of the Roman navy’s power. The Roman navy can suppress the Seleucid navy while easily blockade Carthage. The coastal areas of the city, not to mention doing business, have difficulties in fishing.

“Hehe.” Utica Budenis could only be snered.

Afterwards, the thoughtful guests and hosts went to the City Lord Mansion together.

…

On the 4th and 5th days after Wood’s arrival in the second plane, the situation continued to move towards a good direction.

Wood got a better source of water. It tasted less sour and smelled better than camel urine.

“Dear younger sister, I have been here for 5 days and everything has gone smoothly. This is especially true for the past 2 days. The water I drank was very good, and the lamb was also O. I was in two small houses in Carthaginian. In the oasis town, we have eliminated more than 2 Numidians and rescued more than 100 slaves. I should be able to make it in time. I am less than 100 li from Utica…”

Wood wrote a total of 3 copies at the beginning of this paragraph, but the rest are a little different.

Kusuka prepared a good house for Wood. After fighting for a long time, Wood stopped practicing swords and wrote letters at night.

“The spell here is very barren. I just got a supporter. She is a good core mage, but she only knows the Fireball Technique. It won’t be an acceleration technique that is of great value on the battlefield and can help me a lot. Don’t regret not participating in this adventure with me.”

Wood actually wanted to bring an assistant, but the power of the storm only had 2 copies, so he always had to keep one copy for possible accidents.

The female mage was soothed, and then the female priest, Liandra didn’t mind vying for favors, other encouragement she needed.
