After rebirth, one gold coin bought the Elf Princess

Lily really is like a queen.

Although she was very young, she had a very accurate balance between majesty and kindness, maintaining the momentum of Oro as the strongest kingdom without embarrassing the weaker King Hansa.

King Hansa did not expect Queen Oro to be so gentle, and was rather flattered.

He went out of the city ten miles to greet him, which was the highest level of etiquette in equal communication.

The Hansa Kingdom was small and weak, but since it had not given up the title of king, it had to act like a king.

Fortunately, Queen Oro was able to understand his difficulties and had a gentle attitude, which made him feel a little relieved.

The Hansa King Aesop cordially invited the escort team to settle in the city.

The Hansa Kingdom was indeed in decline, but their royal city was built according to the standards of a first-class kingdom at the time. It was very spacious and there was plenty of room, so there was no need to let the distinguished guests live outside the city.

After personally escorting the escort team to the palace for settlement, King Hansa warmly invited the Queen, Atlantis and others to attend a welcoming dinner.

The dinner was not grand. After all, the Hanseatic Kingdom was not far from bankruptcy. Even if it wanted to pretend to be rich, it did not have the capital, so it could only keep things simple.

Fortunately, Lily is not a fan of lengthy ceremonies and she actually likes this simple style.

At the dinner, King Hansa reminisced about the past, sighed, and talked about the current predicament of the kingdom.

To the northwest of Hansa there is a newly emerging tribe of orcs, and to the northeast there are dragon people entrenched.

The dragon people will not actively invade the human territory, but the orcs are a warlike race and will come to the Hansa Kingdom to plunder from time to time.

This has been the case for thousands of years.

If it was just looting, it would not have shaken the foundation of the Hansa Kingdom. However, these orcs seemed to have grown brains since some point and began to plot against the territory of the Hansa Kingdom.

In fact, they were successful. Among the territories lost by the Hansa Kingdom, only a small part was lost by rebellious independent lords, and most of the territories were occupied by orcs.

Orcs is a general concept, similar to humans. They are divided into dozens of ethnic groups of different sizes based on their bloodline and cultural identity.

Close to the Hansa Kingdom is the Qingyan ethnic group.

This group of orcs suddenly changed from primitive tribal system to feudal system about ten years ago.

Not only that, their technological level also jumped directly from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age.

This group of orcs used official titles such as general commander and grand commander as their aristocratic ranks, established a country, divided up territories, and established the orc kingdom.

Hearing this, Lily's expression changed slightly.

The orcs are more brave and powerful than humans.

I thought they were a barbaric army, but they took the path of civilization, and this caused a big stir.

The King of Hansa took the opportunity of drinking at the banquet to "speak the truth after drinking", not to make her laugh, but to gain her support.

Lily wanted to happily agree to help the distant neighbor, the Hansa Kingdom, but she suddenly remembered her identity.

She is not entirely sure about returning to the country to consolidate power.

If you are not sure, it would be irresponsible to make a rash promise.

Looking at King Hansa's expectant eyes, she could only answer with standard diplomatic rhetoric.

One can imagine the disappointment of King Hansa in the face of Lily's official statement.

If the Hanseatic Kingdom wants to avoid being destroyed, it can only work hard to curry favor with others.

He originally thought about asking Roland for help, but he had no way.

After much difficulty, they caught Queen Oro crossing the border, but she turned out to be like a seasoned politician, speaking without making any mistakes.

If the other party does not give a clear answer when you ask for help, it is actually also a kind of answer.

King Hansa was no fool, and of course he understood Lily's true thoughts behind her vague words.

Is it true that no one can save Hansa?

King Hansa drank several cups in a sad state, and his eyes gradually became blurry.

He sang the songs of the Hanseatic Kingdom with his thick tongue.

When a sad person drinks, the more he drinks, the sadder he feels.

Seeing King Hansa so lost, Lily thought of her own situation and easily felt empathy.

She said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty Aesop, you don't have to do this. Although we are not bordering each other now, we were once friendly and harmonious neighbors."

"I personally hope that your country can become our neighbor again."

When King Aesop of the Hansa heard these words, he saw them as direct support. His hands were shaking with excitement and he almost knelt down to kowtow to Lily.

He thanked Lily excitedly, and the huge rock in his heart finally fell to the ground.

It seems that the fortune-telling was not wrong.

But he had a vague feeling that Lily was not Hansa's savior. Who was the powerful person who could predict the omen?

When will the real savior come?

Probably today.

King Aesop comforted himself silently.

Volume 207: City of Freedom: Chapter : Charges Dropped

Just as the drunken King Hansa staggered to see his guests out, his somewhat bleak gaze fell on the black-robed magician.

His body shook violently.

Although Queen Lily was outstanding in appearance and had a good temperament, the black-robed magician made him feel awe from the bottom of his soul.

The astrology of the Hanseatic family has some similarities with horoscopes but they are not exactly the same.

Astrology is more inclined to calculate destiny through the power of the stars, while horoscopes is to establish the connection between people and their natal stars through observation, so as to understand the fortune.

Compared to astrology, which is more metaphysical and relies on the power of the goddess, astrology requires the user to understand and accurately calculate the stars.

Astrology is such a discipline that seems very metaphysical to the scientific community, and it seeks scientific laws in metaphysics.

His drunkenness disappeared instantly and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Judging from the demeanor of the black-robed magician as he walked, he showed no respect for Queen Lily, and it seemed that he was not her subordinate.

That's easy to do.

Aesop clenched his fists and lowered his head to avoid Roland's gaze.

Roland, who was walking in front, vaguely felt that someone was observing him carefully. He turned around but couldn't find the source of the gaze, so he followed Lily out of the banquet hall.

His outfit looked a bit cold, so it was normal for people to look at him a few more times.

He had long heard that King Aesop was good at astrology. Just now, from listening to his conversation with Lily at the banquet, he knew that he was not satisfied with the current situation of the Hansa Kingdom, but he didn't have a better solution.

The Hansa Kingdom is an important part of Roland's construction of human trade routes.

In his vision, if a trade route was established between the central Gaia continent and the land-bordering Gondwana continent, it would greatly strengthen the ties between human countries.

The center of this trade route is Gracia, the former city of all races. Its eastern end is the ancient Frankish Empire, and its western end is the equally ancient Kingdom of Oro.

The Hanseatic Kingdom was an important transportation hub for opening up the western transportation lines.

He also knew that the Hanseatic Kingdom had been in great difficulty in recent years and was only one step away from destruction.

Another important purpose of escorting Lily back to China this time is to inspect the countries along the way.

The first important country we passed was the Grand Duchy of Tirol.

Grand Duke Tilock is a smart man. He was ambiguous when Roland was resisting the invasion of the goblins. Later, when he saw that Roland had signs of winning, he immediately changed teams, which shows his ability to adapt to the situation.

A pragmatic and rational person like Grand Duke Tilock will transform into a wise man who knows the times as long as he sees the benefits.

If you don't give him benefits, he will never stick with you no matter what.

This kind of person cannot be persuaded, and does not need to be persuaded.

After all, Grand Duke Tilock is Roland's neighbor. With the strength of the Kingdom of Gracia, this sensible Grand Duke can make the right choice.

But the Hanseatic Kingdom was different.

Although Hansa declined, it was still a kingdom with an ancient history and played an important role in human history.

Roland did not want Hansa to perish. After all, the orcs had joined the goblin coalition and were the enemy.

Hansa and the orcs are enemies, so they are potential friends.

What Roland wanted to examine was whether Hansa was worthy of support.

If you want to be saved, you must first save yourself.

If Hansa was a hopeless case, he would not have wasted precious resources.

If Hansa could be saved, he would be willing to lend a helping hand.

Judging from the fact that the Hanseatic Kingdom still retained the organization of 17 provinces from its heyday, their spirit is still there.

This behavior seemed a bit self-deceptive, and in the eyes of many people it was like a clown, but Roland didn't think so.

Whether it is a country or an individual, there are always peaks and troughs.

If a country gives up on itself and even gives up hope when faced with setbacks, no one can save it.

Although the Hanseatic Kingdom had lost everything, it still had a bit of spirit.

They continued to shrink their defenses, and although they were in a mess, they still retained the capital and core areas.

In the face of absolute adversity, this is already quite difficult to do.

King Aesop had just spoken to Lily in a dignified manner, and then, under the influence of alcohol, he skillfully explained the plight of his country without losing the dignity of the kingdom.

He's a talent, worth seeing, but not now.

After all, he is no longer the human hero Roland, but a mysterious magician with a dark personality that no one wants to approach.

I will communicate with this king when I return home.

Roland thought silently and returned to his room.

His room is completely independent, fully equipped with various facilities and is quite elegant.

After all, his current identity is a military magician, and his strength is the noble "fifth level".

This fifth level is not his super fifth level that is comparable to the sixth level, but an ordinary fifth level.

As a fifth-level magician, it is not difficult for him to play the role of a fifth-level magician.

It's even a fun experience.

In the dead of night, there was a slight knock on the door.

"come in."

Although there was a door between them, Roland already knew who was outside.

As a cautious magician, he kept meditating late at night and even set up detection magic at the door.

High-level magicians all know these little tricks, and it is simply a fantasy to want to attack high-level magic.

The person standing outside the door was the Hansa King Aesop.

Roland vaguely guessed what this person wanted to do, but he was a little curious as to why he could find him so accurately.

After getting permission, Aesop pushed open the door and tiptoed in. Before he could say anything, soft magic lights lit up in the room.

Roland took off his mask and looked at Aesop with a smile.

Aesop was stunned. He didn't expect Roland to see him in his true form. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Your Majesty Aesop has come to visit in person. It would be too mean of me to refuse to show my true self. Your Majesty Lily does not know my identity for the time being, so please keep it secret."

Aesop rubbed his hands excitedly, his lips trembling slightly.

"You trust me so much, how can I not appreciate it?"

"Please sit down. You must have a lot of questions to ask, and so do I. Why don't we make a cup of tea and chat slowly?"

Roland had a good impression of this king who never gave up in the face of adversity and fought to the end with the orcs.

Since we are all kings, we are all equal regardless of size, so there is no need to put on airs.

Roland is easy-going, but Aesop dares not be arrogant.
