Lords go left, Emperors go right

"My Lord, what do you mean by this? I am not well educated and don't quite understand."

"Count Fayed, did you buy your position as the fleet's chief captain? You can't even predict the sea and weather conditions!"

"this..."

Count Fayed was confused by the strange question asked by Osta. When he was about to ask further, Count Fayed followed Osta's line of sight and quickly understood everything. After all, it is an island country, and it is very sensitive to changes in the marine environment.

When Count Fayed saw the dark clouds on the horizon, he quickly realized what this strange astronomical phenomenon represented. It was clearly a sign that a super hurricane was about to arrive. Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Count Fayed's expression finally changed, and he was no longer as calm as before.

If hit by a super hurricane, the entire Fourth Fleet of the Faratilt Empire Navy would inevitably be annihilated and buried in the sea. In such a life-and-death situation, the wisest choice is to escape immediately.

The speed of the more than 200 merchant ships and cargo ships that were seized was not fast, and they were not as fast as their naval warships. It was obviously unrealistic to take them with them to escape. This would obviously hinder them. In order to increase the survival rate during the escape, they had to abandon these merchant ships and cargo ships and travel light.

No goods or anything else could be taken away, as the weight of the ship would affect the speed. Count Fayed still knew how to make choices at this time, and gave priority to protecting the safety of the fleet, which was the foundation of Count Fayed.

Once his family fortune was gone, Count Fayed would be left alone, and his position as the chief captain would be in jeopardy. The unit number of the Fourth Fleet of the Falatiert Empire Navy might also be abolished under the push of other political opponents.

"My Lord, I am truly sorry, but our fleet needs to return now. I'd like to ask you to take care of the inspection of the ship this time."

"No problem, Count Fayed. I hope this unpleasant experience will not happen again."

"Your Excellency, I will remember this."

"Count Fayed, there have been frequent hurricanes in this sea area recently. If you have nothing to do or need anything, I suggest you refrain from hanging around here."

After exchanging a few polite words with Osta, Count Fayez ordered his men, the Fourth Fleet of the Falatiert Empire, to flee for their lives. They had to evacuate before the super hurricane arrived, and run as far as they could.

As for whether Aosta should stay or go, Count Fayez didn't need to consider it at all. When the gentleman prince came, he took a flying magic circle. In terms of grade, it was several levels higher than their warships. If something really happened, he would definitely run faster than anyone else, and there was no possibility of capsizing.

Osta looked at the fleeing Rafatilt Empire Navy. On the surface, he did not change much, but in his heart he almost laughed out loud. With the secret support of Super Hurricane Queen Anna and Princess Vichy, Osta successfully solved this thorny diplomatic issue without directly using force.

The diplomatic conflict this time is not over yet and has not been fundamentally resolved. Count Fayez's promise is worthless unless the former Abiglans Empire regains control of the Hanilite Sea. Otherwise, the promise of the Falatiert Empire can be regarded as nothing.

After the Faratilt Empire Navy fled in panic, the remaining 200-odd merchant ships and cargo ships, driven by the wind, began to move towards the territory of Aosta, the coastal area of ​​Bloomfield area, and sailed towards the important port town of St. Louis.

Super hurricane queen Anna and princess Vichy, their human forms appeared on the deck of the merchant ship. These two atmospheric goddesses transformed into human forms. At the same time, Anna and Vichy reduced the power of the super hurricane a lot, turning it into a normal sea breeze, just enough to push the ship.

"My Lord, why did you let them go? If you just sank them all, you could save a lot of unnecessary trouble, and you wouldn't even have to negotiate."

"Anna, dealing with this fleet won't really solve the problem."

"My Lord, if we solve the problem, there will be no more problems soon, right?"

"Vichy, your idea is a bit... I need to find out what happened to the Abigrans Empire."

"Why would that country give up so easily and hand over this sea area to the Faratilt Empire? After the investigation is thorough, I will formulate a detailed response plan based on the results of the investigation...."

"Human politics is really complicated and hard to understand. Lord, Sister Anna and I are only responsible for doing the work, and we will not participate in your political plans."

Super Hurricane Queen Anna and Princess Vichy, although they are atmospheric goddesses, they are not very interested in the politics of the human race. According to Aosta's arrangement, these two atmospheric goddesses sent the more than 200 ships back to the port of St. Louis.

The merchants who were waiting for the outcome of the incident at the dock had not had much hope. When they saw their merchant ships and cargo ships recovered, they were stunned for the first time, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

The merchants did not expect Aosta to be so efficient, and they could not adapt to the situation in such a short time. There was a brief and mysterious silence on the scene. It was not until the ship was completely docked and stopped at the pier that the merchants came to their senses and the crowd burst into warm cheers.

"Your Highness Aosta, thank you so much. Without your help, our ship and cargo would have been detained for a long time."

"Don't worry too much. I'm just doing things for the benefit. You've already thanked me."

"By the way, do you know what happened between the Abigrans Empire and the Faratilt Empire? If I remember correctly, that sea area was originally controlled by the Abigrans Empire."

"Your Highness Aosta, this is another country's politics. Would it be inappropriate for us to discuss it?"

"If you don't mind taking a longer and more dangerous route through the Honeylight Sea in the future, I won't lose anything."

At first, these merchants who have been engaged in maritime transportation for many years were a little bit taboo about Aosta's question. After all, as a businessman, talking about politics is one of the taboos. However, under Aosta's questioning, they still spoke up, but before revealing it, they hoped that Aosta would keep it secret for them and not tell others that it was them who spread it.

After Osta gave the political guarantee and promise in this regard, the merchants who knew the situation spoke up and revealed to Osta what they knew. It turned out that the Abiglans Empire was now in civil strife and had no time to take care of the sphere of influence outside the island.

During the heyday of the Abigrans Empire, its comprehensive national strength was at the forefront among the island countries. In the past, the Faratilt Empire would not dare to easily provoke the Abigrans Empire, let alone send troops to the Hanilite Sea area under the jurisdiction of the Abigrans Empire.

The former emperor of the Abiglans Empire, Arnobil VI, died mysteriously about two years ago, just like he died suddenly, without any signs beforehand. Because Arnobil VI was indecisive during his lifetime, he had never been able to make up his mind and determine the successor to the throne.

This led to a civil war among the imperial family members of the empire, and the princes fought for the succession to the throne. Many foreign forces also intervened and participated, and the empire was on the verge of splitting up. The position of successor to the throne is still vacant. After more than two years of turmoil, the next emperor of the empire has not been elected.

After learning about these situations, Osta felt a little complicated and his mindset was subtle. This strong sense of déjà vu was too similar to his Obelix Empire. The only difference was that the emperors of both sides had different personalities.

Aosta's father, Emperor Augustus VIII, had long ago determined the successor to the throne, and it was clearly the eldest prince Osed. Unlike the previous emperor of the Abiglans Empire, Arnopil VI, who was indecisive and lacked his own opinion, he had never determined the candidate for the successor to the throne.

Osta was in a dilemma as to whether or not to intervene in the chaos of the Abiglans Empire. He was a part-time politician and had to consider carefully before deciding whether to get involved in matters that had no political interests.

Osta's current status is just that of a lord, and he cannot fully represent the official position of the Obelisk Empire. He is also not sure whether his country is involved in the political turmoil in the Abigrans Empire.

After thinking it over, Osta decided to wait and see for the time being. He would wait for a suitable opportunity and then decide whether to intervene and participate in the political game. Before participating, Osta would not publicly express any opinions on the matter or state his position.

"Tifana, please help monitor the situation near the coast of our territory during this period."

"When the time comes, I will let Anna and Vichy cooperate with you remotely. Tifana, if you find any abnormal behavior of the naval fleet of the Farntilt Empire, report to me immediately."

"I understand, Lord. With Anna and Vichy's help, there will be no problem."

"By the way, don't act rashly when the time comes. I will decide whether to take action first."

Osta quickly made relevant arrangements and decided to secretly monitor the actions of the Faratilt Empire's naval fleet for the time being. At present, Osta's territory, the Bloomfield area, has not yet been completely unified. He does not want to go to war directly with the Faratilt Empire and start a naval war.

It is a wiser choice to secretly support agents to fight the war. The foreign forces participating in the battle for the succession to the throne of the Abigrans Empire are not only the Faratilt Empire, and there may be people involved in it. Therefore, it is not convenient for Osta to publicly participate in the war.

When Osta returned safely to the Port of St. Louis, Miss Lanis had already led her besties and the visiting human race northern continent delegation to visit the Blom Vault. These ladies from business families quickly became very interested in the operation mode of the Blom Vault and expressed their willingness to invest immediately.

When Osta came to the Blom Vault, those young ladies had already bought a lot of financial projects launched by the Blom Vault. In addition to savings, they also made large investments. When these wealthy daughters looked at Osta, their eyes changed significantly, which was very different from the first time they met. They seemed much closer.

Osta didn't know the reason for a while, until those ladies started to explain, he knew the truth. It turned out that when a certain gentleman prince was away, Lanis had publicly announced to her girlfriends that the handsome young lord was her boyfriend she found in the overseas continent.

Lanis lied that the two had been secretly dating for several years, and now it was just the right time to announce it during this festive occasion. It must be admitted that businessmen are generally very talented in deceiving people. After Miss Lanis's exaggerated boasting, her girlfriends basically believed it.

Those rich daughters really thought of Osta as their best friend Lanis' boyfriend. They increased their investment efforts, after all, they were supporting their best friend's boyfriend's industry. Osta was quite talented as an actor. After a brief moment of daze at first, this gentleman quickly got into the role and cooperated with Lanis's performance.

"Lenice, your boyfriend has such a big territory, I'm so envious! When can I also..."

"I've already told you that it's best to find a boyfriend from overseas. Now you finally believe me, right?"

Lenise had a happy expression on her face, as if she was bragging to her besties. Osta took the opportunity to get closer, and put his arm around Lenise's slender waist. After all, it was acting, so she had to perform well. Lenise's expression was natural, without any affectation, giving people the illusion that the play was real, with a strong sense of déjà vu.

It is not a loss to have Lanis as a girlfriend. The territory of Aosta originally lacks relevant talents in finance. If it were not for the business cooperation between her and Lanis, the young lady would have a lot of work to deal with. A certain gentleman prince wanted to rob people directly, trick them first, and then talk about other things later.

Chapter 186: An Interlude of the Seaside Celebration

Aosta's financing plan went smoothly. After all, it's easier to get things done with acquaintances. Because he was Miss Lanis' boyfriend, the wealthy daughters from the human race's northern continent tour group were all assured to invest.

The financial resources of these rich ladies and rich girls are quite terrifying. The investment of dozens of people helped Osta to get 80% of the total target funds for the construction of the super city Odysseysreit in the first phase of the financing plan. For the remaining 20% ​​of the funding gap, Osta only needs to find some more businessmen to sponsor it, and he can also pay for it at his own expense. There are funds that can be allocated from the Blom Treasury.

The financing phase plan for the expansion of Super City Odyssey Thrite is divided into many phases, and the financing of the first phase has been temporarily solved. All things are difficult at the beginning, and the subsequent phase plans, with the experience of the first phase, will definitely be much easier to carry out than the first phase.

After the financing plan was successfully resolved, Osta held a celebration party to celebrate and show his hospitality as a host, specifically to entertain the wealthy women and girls from the human race's northern continent tour group. As the lord of the Bloomfield area, Osta had many privileges in his territory.

This time, Aosta used his lordship to contract the most suitable beach area in the coastal area of ​​St. Louis for the celebration party. This is equivalent to official expropriation without compensation, similar to the government's land acquisition. The beach area is currently a public area with no clear ownership. The property rights are assumed to be held by Lord Aosta.

Aosta was quite cautious. In order to conceal the truth, the lord's mansion announced that it was a military exercise, and arranged a large number of troops to be stationed outside, and strictly prohibited all kinds of irrelevant people from approaching. In other words, the beach area was set as a temporary military restricted area, and those who entered without permission would be severely punished.

Such strict confidentiality measures are mainly to prevent the spying actions of the mysterious organization "Eye of Horus". Many of the actions of this organization are comparable to those of the paparazzi on Earth. If the necessary protection is not taken, it will always feel bad to be secretly spied on.

After a few days of clearing and tidying up the place, it was finally possible to ensure that peepers had no chance of getting close. The celebration hosted by Lord Aosta was successfully held in the early morning. The event was similar to a beach party. The beach area was spacious enough, and there were many tall coconut trees growing on the beach, which could provide enough shade and delicious coconut milk.

The beauties who came to this party all changed into the works designed by Miss Lenis. One of Lenis' main occupations was fashion designer. I don't know if she did it on purpose, but the bikinis Lenis provided this time were all sexy and full of erotic appeal. Not only were the panties with ties tied, but the sizes were even smaller than one size.

Fortunately, the ladies who came to the party were all from the northern continent of the human race, and they were relatively open-minded. They were not as conservative as the noble ladies from other human continents. For such open and seductive bikini swimsuits, the ladies present put them on without hesitation and did not mind too much.

The only gentleman on this beach was Osta. As Osta's girlfriend, Lanis didn't care, so they had no reason to be shy. The beauties of the northern continent of the human race received a lot of new things. The sexy bikinis designed by Lanis were no secret among her close friends. Those present were all her close friends, so naturally no one would raise any objections.

"Lenice, these bikinis you designed are great. They show off curves and beauty."

"Your Highness Aosta, thank you for your praise and affirmation! Of course, if you like it, you can promote it to the girls around you! I find that there is no shortage of beautiful girls around you."

"Lenice, it seems like we are still acting..."

"Oh...honey, sorry, I just forgot."

Osta and Lenise sat on a blue and white striped beach mat, like a couple, enjoying the warm sea breeze and bright sunshine together. The morning sun was quite comfortable, so there was no need to open a parasol or anything like that for the time being.

Lenis was wearing a pink string-style sexy bikini swimsuit, a classic three-point design style, which was a perfect match with her pink hair and pink eyes. Lenis's accompanying beautiful housekeeper Mary was also present. Mary was wearing a black string-style sexy bikini swimsuit, also a classic three-point design style.

Lanis lay face down on the blue and white striped beach mat, and Mary sat on her, applying sunscreen to Lanis from her snow-white back. This sunscreen was made by Aosta's sister, "Jade Princess" Audrey. She used precious medicinal herbs collected from the Hellfire Forest to make it. The specific effect has been personally verified by "Thunder Knight" Reina and her beautiful knights of the "Thunder Knights", proving that it is safe and usable.

Now, Osta had invited Laness and her besties to test the effect outdoors. Reina and her beautiful knights from the Thunder Knights had previously completed the test indoors, so the experimental data was still a little incomplete.

Audrey was busy with experiments and did not come to participate in this outdoor beach party. However, the cute loli seemed to have secretly added some extra formula when preparing the sunscreen. It is said that after applying it, there will be an unusually comfortable and cool feeling.

Osta saw Lanis's face full of enjoyment, as if she was doing something indescribable and evil. Regardless of whether his sister Princess Audrey got the recipe wrong, Osta felt that this mistake should be given full marks. There was no need to change it, and it was fine to keep it as it was.

Lanis originally wanted to ask Osta to help her apply sunscreen oil, but the beautiful housekeeper Mary stopped her immediately. The two were just pretending to be a couple, and Mary was one of the few people who knew about it, so she naturally had to avoid too much intimacy between the two to avoid crossing the line.

Osta was still very grateful for Mary's intervention. If he really wanted to help Lenise apply sunscreen, Osta felt that his self-control might not be as strong as before. He might do some unspeakable strange things before he finished helping. Lenise was quite open-minded in many aspects and didn't mind Osta's presence at all.

When Mary was helping Lenise apply sunscreen, the young lady would not deliberately suppress the sound when she felt comfortable. The strange sound made directly could easily make people think of something else. Osta was a little helpless about this. Fortunately, the place was reserved. The sound made by Lenise was too charming. People who didn't know the situation would think that she was being loved by her boyfriend.

"My dear, the cosmetics your sister has prepared are so... so comfortable. Can you prepare more? They should all like it. Price is not an issue!"

"Lenice, this...I will tell her."

"My dear, I'll trouble your sister then. I've never had such a great experience with any cosmetics I've used before."

"Lenice, there will be many better cosmetics in the future, just look forward to it!"

Aosta looked at the beach with some embarrassment. The other rich daughters from the Northern Continent tour group followed Lanis's example and helped each other apply sunscreen. The ups and downs of the ecstasy sound made people want to go crazy. Fortunately, the guards present were all the professional high-level maids that Queen Margaret III had given to Aosta not long ago.

These high-ranking maids were also from the human race's western continent, the daughters of noble families of the Queen of the Obelix Empire. They were not shocked by the ambiguous atmosphere in front of them.

These elite maids, with their beautiful eyes inevitably revealing a bit of curiosity, seemed to not understand what kind of magical power the liquid applied on them had. It could actually make those well-informed socialites and the daughters of wealthy families from the human race's northern continent tour group lose their composure. The rich women and rich lolita present all became strange, and that subtle state felt almost like the peak.

Chris and Sophia were also on standby at the beach, wearing their usual work clothes, Gothic maid outfits, and they did not put on the sexy three-point bikinis designed by Lanis, which made Osta feel a little regretful.

Osta was looking forward to seeing the two girls in sexy bikinis. Of course, Chris and Sophia didn't change their clothes, in part to save face for the guests who attended the beach party. The looks and figures of these two beauties were beyond the standard, crushing the rich daughters of the visiting group from the northern continent of the human race.

If Chris and Sophia really put on bikinis, the sexy bikinis designed by Lenise, and stood there to compare, it would be easy to indirectly hit these socialites. After comprehensive consideration, the two of them did not follow suit.

The other maids at the scene basically followed the local customs and changed into the sexy bikinis provided by Lanis, and quickly integrated into the special environment of the scene. Compared with the female guests, the maids wore an extra wreath headdress on their heads, and on their jade-white arms and one snow-white thigh, they wore black and white lace arm and leg rings to indicate their identities.

The delicious food, seafood dinner and fruit juice drinks provided by this beach party were all made from local ingredients. The seafood dinner was prepared by Aosta when he went out to sea to deal with the merchant ships and goods being seized by the Fourth Fleet of the Faratilt Empire Navy. He caught the salmon, a specialty fishery seafood in the Hanilite Sea area.

Super hurricane Queen Anna and Princess Vichy, the two of them casually rolled in the sea. A seaspout rolled down and sucked up a lot of salmon directly, and the salvage efficiency was far better than that of professional fishing boats. The fruit juice drinks used in the beach party were also directly selected from the coconut trees on the beach, and the coconuts on the trees were used as raw materials and the delicious coconut milk was specially made on the spot.

In addition to these delicious dishes, Aosta spent almost no money on this beach celebration party. When the lord's mansion was preparing for the event, the merchants who had taken back their ships and goods with the help of Aosta were very sensible and sponsored the beach party celebration in the form of "political donations".

Aosta only needs people to show up, and they don't have to pay a penny, which is like a free "girlfriend". Aosta has sufficient funds for the preparation, so he doesn't have to pay. Therefore, on the basis of the seafood feast, Aosta added a lot of delicacies produced in the mainland.

The distinguished guests who attended the beach party celebration were all from the richest northern continent of the human race. These wealthy daughters were generally well-informed and had seen everything in the world. The beach party celebration for them could not be too casual in terms of specifications and grade, at least to make them satisfied and happy.

"Your Highness Aosta, do you still have the sunscreen oil your sister prepared? I want to buy some and recommend it to other friends. It's so comfortable to use!"

"Your Highness Aosta, price is not a problem. We will buy it no matter how expensive it is. As long as it is in stock, we will order it all."

"Don't worry, everyone. I will sketch with her about this matter. Don't worry, everyone has one, and you can make an appointment in advance."

"Your Highness Aosta, thank you for your help."

Osta looked in front of him, at the wealthy daughters who were surrounding him. What caught the eyes of this gentleman prince was a beautiful scene of surging waves and a dazzling white temptation scene. He had no choice but to promise that everyone would have it.

As for the young ladies who were looking to buy the "rich woman's happy oil", Osta could only keep a little distance. His current equipment was just a pair of standard beach flip-flops and a pair of black boxer shorts. If there was any close physical contact, it would be easy to lose control and might become impulsive.

"Lenice, excuse me for a moment. I have to go and arrange the next menu."

"Well, honey, I'll wait for you here."

After taking a few bites of salmon and drinking half a cup of coconut milk, Osta found a good excuse to temporarily leave the main beach party venue. Lanis and the others were still enjoying the "rich woman's happy oil" and didn't care much about Osta's departure. Sophia stayed on standby to be responsible for Lanis and the others' safety, while Chris followed behind Osta and left the scene together.

Osta did not walk far, but walked to a nearby camping tent that was hidden. There were many beautiful female guards guarding outside the tent, giving people the illusion that the things inside were very important. Osta nodded, greeted the female guards, and then lifted the curtain of the tent.

This time, what came into view was also a white and attractive scenery. There were several fair-skinned phantoms in the tent. The Obelisk Empire envoys Britney and Mel, as well as the female envoys who came with them, were all inside, on standby.

Osta had said before that he was going to bring Britney and the others out to participate in the event. However, a certain gentleman prince obviously had ulterior motives, not only did he not distribute bikinis, but he also added black lace eye masks.

Britney and the others now felt a chill all over their bodies, unusually cool. Their hands were tied behind their backs with red strings, and their teeth bit the white cloth, temporarily sealing their speech ability. They could not speak, and could only experience this extremely embarrassing disguised outdoor exposure game.

"Britney darlings, you two are so obedient. I will take you to see the sea later! It's rare for you to get out, so getting some sun is good for your health."

"Your Highness Aosta, you are so mean. This is a public place!"

"Britney baby, I've reserved the place. This is a private place now!"

"Your Highness Aosta, can you give us swimsuits..."

After the cloth was temporarily removed, Britney was just looking for an opportunity to make a request to a certain gentleman prince, but was interrupted by the other party with delicious coconut milk. Osta took the coconut milk and fed it to Britney. When Britney was enjoying the juice drink, the pure white juice just flowed down along the corners of her mouth and flowed through the ravines of her upper body, giving people endless fantasies.

After several protests, Britney was interrupted by the feeding game, so she could only accept her fate and no longer resist Osta's control and manipulation. Mel and the others saw that Britney had surrendered, so they also gave up the idea of ​​resistance and let the gentleman prince do whatever he wanted.

The imperial female envoys and officials present were actually all Osta's women. Britney and the others were just shy about this kind of interesting interactive game, and they didn't really reject or resist it in their hearts.
