"Your Highness, are we going to the land of chaos? I heard that Beastkin have taken over a piece of land over there." Qiao Mu said cautiously.
He couldn't keep silent, packed up all night, and got up early in the morning, so that His Highness Deess could not waste time in a daze.
"Who is the leader?" Deess raised his eyelids slightly.
"It's the Duke's daughter, Miss Bella." Qiao Mu hesitated and said, "I heard that there are more than 300 Beastkin knights. If we go there, we may be able to take down the chaotic land."
"Hmph, stupid." Deess scolded coldly.
How could he not know that Bella woman? The other party's ambition is not less than his, but she is also very strong. He used to want to get a share, but he was afraid that he would fight first. Either he swallowed her or she swallowed him.
If Bella wanted to submit to him, it would be astonishing. In the original Brutus Beastkin kingdom, the other party didn't give him any face, let alone now.
"Then? Where are you going? Do you want to go to Sheba City?" Qiao Mu's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of the delicious food in Sheba City, as well as the comfortable environment.
"Idiot!" Deess stared at Qiao Mu with wide eyes, and scolded, "Do you want everyone to die?"
The recent changes in Sheba City cannot be hidden from the nearby cities at all, especially Deess has been sending people to keep an eye on the changes in Sheba City. The scene of more than 1000 knights training cannot be hidden from careful observation. Not necessarily worse than the fourth prince.
"..." Qiao Mu shut his mouth in embarrassment. He expressed his feelings and knew that it was impossible to go to Sheba City. He was crying in his heart. He was afraid that he would have to suffer again. I hope His Highness will not do something stupid.
"Your Highness, why don't we reoccupy a city and then control that city lord." Qiao Mu thought of another idea.
"Which city is like Blade City? The whole city is dominated by slaves?" Deess looked at Qiao Mu expressionlessly.
This is a good choice. In a slave-dominated city, no one in the entire city dares to rebel whoever becomes the master.
"Uh..." Qiao Mu hesitated, yes, but those are big cities, with their current ability, there is no way to get close.
"Go into the Forbidden Mountains. If we find this treasure, we will have a chance." Deess glanced at Qiao Mu and took out the treasure map bought from Sheba City.
He has also been researching recently, and asked his subordinates to research, but they still found nothing. He planned to enter the forbidden mountain range to find it.
The most important thing is that they can go hunting in the mountains. They don't have much food left, and they don't have much gold coins left. The root cause is still poverty.
"This..." Qiao Mu opened his mouth to persuade him, but seeing Deess' unfriendly eyes, he closed his mouth helplessly. What kind of decision is this?
Your Highness is too obsessed with treasures, right?I'm almost becoming a demon, do you really think that treasures are so easy to find?He still entered the forbidden mountain range, but he didn't dare to show it in his heart.
"Everything is packed?" Deess' eyes full of blood were full of coldness. As long as someone dared to resist, he was going to kill someone.
"It's packed, and you can leave at any time." Qiao Mu responded immediately, he could feel His Highness's killing intent, and he acted like a coward.
"Very good, let's go now." Deess stood up, walked outside, and left Blade's Edge City today.
"Your Highness, what about those slaves?" Qiao Mu followed closely behind.
The slaves he was talking about were those who worked for them in the city, and there were some high-quality slaves. They sold a lot of them cheaply before, and now there are hundreds of them left.
"Leave them alone, don't waste food with them." Deess said indifferently, "Just take the knights away, and everyone will bring some wheat and supplies."
"Yes." Qiao Mu nodded helplessly, and sold all of them cheaply before he knew it.
"Let's go." Deess got on the horse and shouted, "Come with me."
"Yes." The Beastkin knights roared.
"Ta Tata..."
In the end, Deess led more than 300 knights into the imprisoned mountains to find the treasure of the Brutus Beastkin kingdom, leaving behind a scourge of Blade's Edge City.

the next day.
"It's almost noon, why haven't you come yet?" Catherine muttered to herself, sitting on a chair, resting her chin with one hand, pouted and looking at the shadow in the corner of the room.
"Boom bang bang..."
The sound of knocking on the door made Catherine's heart skip a beat, her whole body trembled, she rolled her eyes angrily, and shouted, "Come in."
"Gag..."
The maid pushed open the door, closed the door casually, and hurried in, panting, "Little Miss, it's not good, it's not good."
"Stop, take a breath, and talk again." Catherine frowned.
"Whoosh..."
The maid took a deep breath and whispered quickly, "Miss, there are more than a dozen more knights outside the door, are you going to marry me?"
"What?" Catherine's face changed, and she asked in surprise, "You mean, there are more than a dozen knights outside the door?"
"Gag!"
She got up suddenly, opened the door, and saw four knights outside the door, now there were twelve knights, and there were many knights standing not far away.
"Could it be..." Catherine's face turned pale, and she immediately thought of a possibility that Jones had been discovered?
"Garji... bang!!"
The door was closed suddenly, leaving a group of knights looking at each other in blank dismay. How could they stop Miss Catherine when they were still having a headache, and just came out to take a look at them?
"Quickly tell me, what happened last night, such as someone caught?" Catherine's golden eyes widened, and her hands tightly squeezed the maid's shoulders.
"No, no." The maid was taken aback, it was the first time she saw Miss like this.
"That's good, that's good." Catherine breathed a sigh of relief. It would be fine if the Leopard-eared lady was just spotted by people and she was fine.
2
"Miss, what's the matter?" the maid asked concerned.
"It's okay." Catherine shook her head, and said to the maid worriedly, "Go out and find out if anything happened in the Duke's mansion last night."
"Okay." The maid nodded and walked outside.
"Gag..."
"There must be nothing wrong." Catherine clasped her hands tightly in front of her chest, and she prayed that nothing would happen to Leopard-Er Niang, otherwise she would feel uneasy in the future.
...
At this time, in the study of the Duke's Mansion, Kerak was looking at the information sent by his subordinates, with his eldest son Tove standing beside him.
"What's the matter, didn't you catch that person?" Kerak asked angrily, and put down the paper in his hand. This paper is really a good thing.
"Father, that man is too slippery, he only followed him for two blocks, and then he lost it."
Tove gritted his teeth and said angrily, "However, that person is a woman in terms of body shape."
The defense of the Duke's mansion is very strict, especially around Catherine's room. In order to prevent Catherine from sneaking away, they raised the defense level to the highest level, which is already comparable to the Duke of Kerak.
"I asked you to send more people to Catherine today, have you sent them?" Kerak said lightly.
"It's already been dispatched. If that person dares to come, he will definitely be able to catch her." Tove said with a serious face.
"What do you think that man sneaked into Catherine's room for?" Kerak said with a hint of sophistication.
"This...could it be Catherine's friend? Came to visit her?" Tove hesitated.
"No." Karak shook his head, squinted his eyes, and said indifferently, "Catherine is not reconciled, watch her, the maids come in and out, remember to search, and send two maids to watch."
He understands his daughter's temperament, after all, it is so easy to understand, all emotions are shown on her face.The mysterious woman went last night, and Catherine ate. There was no change, and he didn't believe it.
Then there is a possibility that Catherine wants to escape marriage, which will change Catherine, after all, she has been dying before.
"Yes." Tove responded quickly, and he immediately arranged for someone.
...
At noon, the maid walked to Catherine's room with lunch, and saw two middle-aged maids at the door.
"Who are you?" the maid asked in surprise.
"We were sent by the master to help. You need to check yourself when you go in." The middle-aged maid said flatly.
"Give me my lunch, and after the inspection, you can go in."
"You..." The maid hesitated, but obediently let the middle-aged maid touch her body, and after finding nothing, she brought the lunch in.
"Gag..."
"Huh... who is it?" The maid was annoyed in her heart, and closed the door after finishing her lunch.
"How is it?" Catherine asked eagerly.
"Miss, nothing happened, it was still the same last night." The maid reassured.
"Really?" Catherine frowned, nothing happened, what happened to the knight outside?
"Miss, someone searched me at the door just now." The maid said without distraction.
"Huh?" Catherine was stunned for a moment, her face immediately turned solemn. She knew that the Leopard-eared Lady had been exposed, otherwise she wouldn't have searched again.
Now that it was over, Catherine sat on the chair weakly, her face was pale, and her guard was even tighter. It would be even more difficult for HAD to rescue her.
"Miss, let's have lunch." The maid set the lunch, saw Catherine's face was ugly, and said, "The chef in the kitchen was really interesting just now, and said that this lunch was learned from Sheba City. I didn't expect Sheba The city's food reputation has spread here, and that person doesn't even look at it to tell anyone, doesn't he know that we have been to Sheba City?"
"Stop? Did you learn cooking skills from Sheba City for lunch?" Catherine's golden eyes widened. She immediately thought that Nicole had told her that Sheba City's cooking skills were not passed on to outsiders, could it?
"Yes, that's what that person said." The maid nodded affirmatively.
Catherine thought of a possibility, picked up the chopsticks and turned over the lunch, and after turning over a steak, she found a small bamboo tube stuffed in the steak.
Such a method of information transmission? ? ?
Chapter 0635 information delivery.
"Huh? Why is there something here?" The maid looked at the bamboo tube the size of her index finger in astonishment.
"Hua'er, keep your voice down." Catherine glared at the maid Hua'er, carefully picked out the bamboo tube from the steak with chopsticks, and then wiped it clean with a sackcloth.
She flipped through it, carefully picked out the plug from one end of the bamboo tube, and found a note stuffed inside.
"This..." Hua'er widened her eyes, looking at this scene in astonishment, it was really miraculous.
"As expected of Jones, this method can also be thought of." Catherine raised the corner of her mouth, and her golden eyes looked at the unfolded note.
A few words were written on the note: I am Jones, your room is under martial law, and you can't sneak in for the time being. The chef in the back kitchen has been bribed. You can stuff the letter into a bamboo tube and bring it out to me.
"..." Seeing the young lady's smile, Hua'er thought of the abnormality of the young lady yesterday, how could she still not understand it, and then thought of what the chef said just now, she covered her mouth and looked at her young lady in surprise.
Miss, this is related to Sheba City. Could it be that Mr. HAD is having an affair with Miss?Oh my god, no wonder the young lady is unwilling to marry the eldest prince.
In other words, apart from being the future king, the eldest prince really has nothing to do with it. After all, Sheba City has delicious food, as well as fun things to make people feel comfortable. If Miss married Mrs. HAD, would I also Can you live in Sheba City?
Not to mention the wild thoughts of the little maid Hua'er, Catherine immediately rolled the letter written last night into a roll and stuffed it into the bamboo tube, then sealed the stopper, put it back into the steak, and then fiddled with the color of the dishes.
"Wait a minute, take this lunch back to the kitchen, as before." Catherine instructed Hua'er.
2
"Understood." Hua'er assured.
"Be natural." Catherine warned, she didn't want this long-term information channel to be discovered.
"Yes." Hua'er nodded seriously, and then teased, "Miss, who gave you that letter? Could it be Lord HAD?"
"You're the one who has trouble." Catherine raised the corners of her mouth and rolled her eyes. "If something goes wrong, I'll marry you to Er Mazi."
"Ah? No, I want to follow Miss." Hua'er turned pale in astonishment.
Er Mazi is a fire cook in the back kitchen. His face is covered with spots and he is very courageous.
"It's good if you know it, it's done, and you'll vomit after eating delicious food." Catherine was lying on the bed, and the days of waiting like this were not easy.
"Absolutely no problem." Hua'er patted her flat chest for assurance.
"Go ahead, just say I have no appetite." Catherine waved her hand.
"Okay." Hua'er wiped the chopsticks, put them back on the tray, checked carefully, and left the room with her lunch.
"Gag..."
"Stop and check."
Sure enough, Hua'er was stopped when she went out, and her clothes were checked again, and she even glanced at her lunch.
"Why didn't you eat this lunch?" asked the middle-aged maid.
"Miss, I've lost my appetite again." Hua'er pretended to sigh.
"Go." The two middle-aged maids had also heard about Catherine, and they didn't suspect anything.
Hua'er breathed a sigh of relief, took the lunch to the back kitchen as usual, and handed it to the chef in the back kitchen.
"Flowers, won't Miss Catherine eat it again?" The chef looked at the lunch with twinkling eyes.
"Yeah, Miss has no appetite." Hua'er said helplessly, "You should deal with it according to the old rules."
"Okay." The chef nodded quickly. According to the usual rules, the food that the young lady can't finish will be thrown into the fire and burned, so that no one will eat the young lady's food.
But today, the chef called Er Mazi, "Emazi, this lunch is entrusted to you, take care of it."
"Okay, okay." Er Mazi trotted out from behind the stove, exchanged glances with the chef, slipped a silver coin from his lunch hand into the chef's hand, and walked towards the stove with the lunch.
"That's great." The chef stuffed the silver coins into his pocket calmly.
Er Mazi came to the door last night and told him to say a few words to Hua'er, and to give him a silver coin to handle the lunch. Of course, he agreed to such a good thing.
For a silver coin, he stole the coins from the ingredients in the back kitchen, and it would take half a year to save a silver coin. If you do a little favor now, you can get a silver coin, and a fool would not agree.
As for why Er Mazi had silver coins, and why he was asked to help him, he was not curious, life was important, after all, a silver coin was not something that Er Mazi could take out, and there must be some big shots behind him.
Small people have the way of survival of small people. Don't be too curious, so that you can live longer.
Er Mazi came to the stove with his lunch, took the bamboo tube out of the steak, put it in his pocket, and poured the lunch into the fire.
"Chef, I have a stomachache and I need to go out for a while." Er Mazi immediately trotted to ask for leave.
"Go, go." The chef waved his hand quickly, he knew if his stomach hurt.
"Thank you..." Er Mazi left the back kitchen holding his stomach, and left the Duke's mansion through the back door.
For a small person like him, people at the lowest level, no one doubts him at all, because everyone at the upper level knows that people at the lower level have no access to anything, so there is no need to be too defensive.
"Ta Tata..."
Er Mazi came to the back alley next to the second street, and saw a beggar lying on the ground sleeping, with a broken bowl with three gaps next to it, glanced around, put the bamboo tube into the broken bowl, and then took it out of the bowl Take ten copper coins from here.
"Be careful, don't reveal your identity." The beggar suddenly called out, causing Er Mazi's heart to jump in fright.
"Yes, the villain knows." Er Mazi said respectfully.
A few days ago, someone came to him, taught him some things, gave him coins, and bought linen for his parents.
Today is his first mission. He has been asked to lurk in the duke's mansion before and collect some information whenever he has the opportunity.
"Go." The beggar waved his hand.
"Yes." Er Mazi left.
Within a few minutes, Jones also came. Looking at the bamboo tube in the bowl, her red eyes narrowed slightly, feeling very incredible.
She originally wanted to sneak into the Duke's mansion to find Catherine to get the letter back this morning, but the security was too tight, so she had to give up, and then went to find the letter courier under Lucy's reminder, but she did it for her unexpectedly.
"Miss Jones, take the bamboo tube away. If you still want to pass it on, go to the alley over there tomorrow." The beggar threw the bamboo tube to Mrs. Bao Er, and limped away.
"..." Qiong Simo sent the other party away. How did this information get to Catherine?
Chapter 0636 arrogant and domineering messenger.
"Crash..."
The hull swayed, almost causing Viscount Philip, who was standing on the bow, to fall down. He looked at the boats passing by with an ugly expression, and blamed these lowly businessmen.
Viscount Lipu was the envoy sent by the fourth prince Ding Keda to invite HAD to Somalia, but he didn't think it was an invitation. A little baron actually asked him a viscount to invite him?No, it's an order.
When he took refuge in His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, he relied on himself. Now that he is a baron, the Fourth Prince thinks so highly of him. He is very upset.
Of course, if it was him himself, he wouldn't dare to mess around too much if he was upset, but he would not be afraid if Earl Puli was involved. You must know that Earl Puli was someone the fourth prince relied heavily on, and he was not comparable to a baron.
2
Before he left, Earl Puli asked him to insult this Baron HAD, so as not to show him a good face.
For the sake of the dozens of gold coins, Viscount Philip agreed to this small request. He didn't think the baron dared to resist.
"My lord, the port of Sheba City is not far ahead." The boatman pointed to the looming mast in the distance. There were many ships docked at the port, which looked like a forest.
"Oh? Is it finally here?" Viscount Philip's face showed joy. He had been on the boat for a few days, and he was almost moldy.
"Yes, the port of Sheba City is really as prosperous as in the legend. There are so many ships." The boatman said with emotion.
"Hmph!" Viscount Lippe sneered, so what about the prosperity, it won't be long before it belongs to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince.
I don't know what happened to Kunzhan and Jesse, but they dared not send any news back. Is it because they didn't get the secret recipe of the perfume and felt embarrassed?
Viscount Lippe had many thoughts in his mind. He planned to scold the two of them when he saw them, so that the two of them were so favored before, but this time they would not fall down.
"Wow wow wow..."
"There are really a lot of ships, more ships than Wangdu Port."
"It's amazing. I heard that Sheba City has only been developed for half a year. It's really amazing."
"Look, there is actually a bridge over the Youshui River."
"Oh my god, it's really a miracle. How did this happen?" the boatmen on board exclaimed.
Viscount Lippe had nothing to say, and stared blankly at the wooden bridge floating on the water in the distance, and there were still many people walking on it.
Unknowingly, the ship has already entered the port of Sheba City, and now the port is very lively, with many sailors and boatmen shouting, they are transporting goods.
"Hey, you guys, be careful. It's a very valuable thing. If it breaks, you can't afford it."
"Hurry up, people behind, hurry up and move the linen up."
"Out of pasture? Hurry up and buy it. Do you want these draft horses to starve to death?"
"..."
As soon as Viscount Philip approached, he could hear the roar of the stewards on the ships, very much like the stewards in his house.
"There should be more than 500 ships here." Viscount Lippe muttered to himself, his eyes flickered strangely, how much money should he earn.
No wonder Baron HAD was asked to meet His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince. This is really too rich, making money every day.
"Hey..." Lip chuckled, and immediately put aside Earl Puli's request, and decided to scare this Baron HAD, so he should obediently give him some gold coins.
"Hey, everyone, look, that sailboat is really big."
"Wow, it's actually a 50-meter boat, and I saw it here."
"..."
Viscount Philip followed the boatman's gaze, and he really saw a 50-meter-large ship, which was too conspicuous among many small and medium-sized boats.
"No, there's still one over there, look, there's another one over there."
"Oh my god, there is one over there. There are actually three large ships of 50 meters. Could it be that the royal fleet of that kingdom has come?"
"How is this possible? I have never heard of any other kingdom entering the Kingdom of Yingluo."
"..."
The exclamation of the boatmen, Philip has ignored, he heard the giggles from the nearby fleet.
"Look, another group of people who have never seen the world are coming."
"Hahahaha...it's really funny, it's so funny to see their wide eyes."
"..."
These people behaved almost the same as the boatmen on Viscount Philip's ship before, but it didn't prevent them from laughing at others.
Viscount Philip's face turned red, and he glared angrily at the yelling boatman on the boat, and scolded, "What are you doing still stupidly, isn't it embarrassing? Hurry up to the port."
"Yes Yes..."
"Ta Tata..."
The boatmen started running immediately, but they still peeked at the 50-meter ship docked not far away. They steered the boat towards the 50-meter ship, and wanted to dock in the open place over there, and they could also take a closer look.
"Warning, warning, there is a naval port ahead, no advance." Before they got close, they heard a shout.
Viscount Philip and the others immediately followed their eyes and saw a tower-like building standing on the edge of the port, five or six meters high, with five or six people on it, and one of them was facing them. call.
"Warning, warning, there is a naval port ahead, no advance."
This time, Viscount Philip heard clearly what he was shouting, and it was this shout that made him extremely annoyed.
"Keep going, I don't believe it, they dare to do something to us." Viscount Philip shouted loudly, and gestured provocatively to the people in the tower.
"The third warning, warning, the naval port ahead, no advance, otherwise there will be a military strike." The soldier on the tower shouted coldly.
It was the first time for the soldiers to encounter such a person. Before, a ship was curious and wanted to approach them. After two warnings, it would retreat. This ship has already warned them for the third time, and dared to provoke them.
"Captain, that ship is disobedient and is still advancing." The soldier said with a serious face.
"Twist the string, try to shoot the first spear as a warning." The soldier captain ordered immediately.
"Yes."
2
The soldiers immediately tore off the sackcloth covering the crossbow on the bed, turned the winch above it immediately, and put a spear on it.
This is a bed crossbow of the city defense type. It can fire five spears at once. It is so powerful that it can easily tear a horse apart. If you add a special spear tip, it can easily pierce bluestone. brick.
Chapter 0637 scared pee.
"Kakkaka..."
The crossbow strings of the bed crossbow had been easily pulled apart by the winch, and the spear more than one meter long had been installed. Another soldier adjusted the accuracy of the bed crossbow and pointed it at Viscount Philip's bow.
"My lord, that, that, look at that." The boatman shouted in panic, pointing his finger at the spear on the tower.
"We are the envoys sent by His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince." Viscount Lippe screamed, of course he saw that the spear was aimed at their boat, didn't he see his feet shaking?
"Captain? What should we do?" The soldier turned to look at the team leader.
"Let go." The soldier captain said coldly.
He remembered that the Deputy Director of the Department of Military and Political Affairs said that as long as it was a foreign ship, if it wanted to approach the naval port, no matter who the opponent was, it should be warned and shot.
"Yes." The soldier pulled the buckle suddenly, the crossbow string rebounded instantly, and the spear shot out.
"Buzz!"
A cracking sound rang out.
"boom!"
The spear pierced into Viscount Lip's bow in an instant, and the whole ship shook. Viscount Lip staggered and fell, with his forehead broken.
"Buzzing..."
Half of the spear was stuck in the plank of the ship, and the tail of the spear was still shaking. It must have hit the girder, otherwise it would have been completely stuck in the ship.
"Gulu..." Viscount Lippi swallowed in fear, the spear was only two meters away from him, if it was a little further away, wouldn't it tear him apart?
"My lord, are you alright?" The boatmen immediately reacted and hurried to Viscount Philip, while the knights stood in front of him.
"No, it's okay." Viscount Philip blushed, his crotch was chilly, he was scared to pee.
"My lord, he, they are using spears again." The boatman pointed at the tower in horror.
"What?" Viscount Philip shuddered, and suddenly stood up to look. This time it turned out to be five spears?And there are still three, are these fifteen spears?
If you shoot them here, don't you shoot them into a hornet's nest?No, tear it all apart.
"Warning, retreat immediately, there is a military restricted area ahead, retreat immediately." The corner of the soldier's captain raised his mouth, and looked indifferently at the people on the boat.
They had trained to test ship targets before, and it was their first time to shoot in actual combat. If they were not interested, they would use all three crossbows on the tower, and if they couldn't, they would add fire attack with animal oil.
There are still tall towers across the Youshui River, but more than a dozen towers have been built in the port, all equipped with bed crossbows, otherwise the port would be so peaceful?
No matter where it is, the port has the most oil and water, but the current port is peaceful and peaceful, because HAD used force to guard it.
"Back, back quickly." Viscount Philip yelled at the boatmen, he was really frightened.
His biggest confidence is the fourth prince, but the other party is completely recalcitrant, and if the warning is useless, he will attack. If he confronts such a fool, is it fatal?
"Yes!" The boatmen immediately started to run, steering the boat back.
The naval base was newly established by HAD. In order to prepare for going to sea in the future, he divided the port into two parts. The first half is a civilian port, and the second half is a naval base under construction.
It also includes a dock for building ships and a floating bridge that can be protected. There are four large ships of 50 meters in the naval base for this campaign, all of which are powered by sails.
In the end, Viscount Philip's ship leaned against the middle of the civilian port under the gloating eyes of some people.
"What a fool, there will never be a shortage of people who are proud and arrogant, and they dare to play tricks without even looking at where this place is."
"That's right, two days ago, there was a nobleman who saw a little Beastkin girl on the street and wanted to snatch her away. Now he's in prison in the Security Department. I heard that he will pay ten gold coins, and then It will be closed for many more days."
"A group of nobles with sperm on their brains, it's really shameful."
"..."
Hearing the loud and intentional taunts nearby, Viscount Lipu was so angry that his teeth itch. He was so embarrassed before he saw that HAD.
"Ta Tata..."
Suddenly a group of 20 soldiers appeared and immediately surrounded Viscount Philip's ship, ten of them drew Tang swords, and ten of them aimed at the ship with crossbows... 0
"People on board, come down empty-handed immediately." Taki shouted.
After he came to Sheba City from Huiyan City, he was met by Mr. HAD, and then he was sent to the Military and Political Department for training for a while, and then he was assigned to the port as a chief inspector, that is, to patrol the safety of the entire port.
"My lord, what should we do?" The knights looked nervously at Viscount Philip. They only came this time with more than 20 knights, so they couldn't compete at all.
"..." Viscount Lip's face changed twice, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Go down empty-handed."
"Yes." The knights breathed a sigh of relief and left their long swords on board.
"Ta Tata..."
Resisting the chilly feeling in his crotch, Viscount Lippe stepped off the boat and saw the strange bright sword and the long arrows. His feet were a little soft, and the shadow of the spear was still there.
"Come on, check it out." Taki waved his hand, and immediately ten people boarded the boat, and they had to take back the spears by the way.
"Tat Tat Tat..." The soldiers rushed onto the boat.
"You...you are too rude." Viscount Lippe shouted in a low voice, and he used a roar to embolden his courage.
"Who are you? What are you doing in Sheba City?" Taki glanced at the dozens of people in front of him.
"I am Viscount Lipu, the envoy sent by His Highness the Fourth Prince. I want to see Baron HAD." Viscount Lipu said coldly.
"Oh? Then after the investigation is clear, you hand over the letter of invitation, and the city lord will see you when he is free." Taki said coldly, he didn't like these nobles, especially the princes at all.
He never forgot that during the flood in Huiyan City, he was teased by the nobles who were also the prince's envoy. If he refused to give food, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It made him very disgusted.
"What? You still need to submit the letter of invitation?" Viscount Lipu was stunned. He was the envoy sent by His Highness the Fourth Prince.
Chapter 0638 Alien Customs.
"The city lord is very busy, and you can't meet anyone if you want." Taki glanced at Viscount Lippe after speaking, which almost means that you are the kind of person who doesn't care.
"You...I am the envoy sent by His Highness the Fourth Prince to invite Baron HAD." Viscount Lip raised his chin. He was unhappy with HAD in his heart, but he couldn't express it in his mouth.
"That will have to wait. Sheba City is not uncommon for you to use the prince's excuse like this." Taki curled his lips in disdain. Sheba City is too prosperous and there are too many businesses to do.
And the city lord does not see everyone, so there are too many people attacking the envoys of a certain duke and a certain prince, and he has captured many of them.
Of course, Taki also has good eyesight. The nobleman in front of him showed that he was an arrogant nobleman from his behavior and speech, but there is no shortage of noblemen in Sheba City.
"You...I have here a warrant written by the fourth prince to Baron HAD." Viscount Philip's face was ugly. When was he despised by a knight like this?Even the knights of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince were polite to him, how could HAD's subordinates be more proud than some nobles.
"Warrant?" Taki narrowed his eyes slightly, and stared at Viscount Philip maliciously. Warrants are not a good thing, especially those of high-ranking nobles.
Could it be that the fourth prince wants to recruit the city lord?
As long as there are two or three noble titles in high school, you can recruit the lower nobles below. Of course, you can also refuse. Generally, refusing means turning your face. After all, this is a very embarrassing thing for the high nobles.
"Yes, it's a warrant. The fourth prince recruited Baron HAD to Somalia." The corner of Viscount Lip's mouth rose, he didn't believe that HAD dared not give the fourth prince face.
"Hmph." Taki snorted coldly, this is not something he can ignore.
"Ta Tata..."
The soldier inspecting the ship came down and shook his head at Taki.
"Here, go over there and pay the fine." Taki took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Viscount Philip.
"Fine? Why?" Viscount Philip's eyes widened in disbelief, "I am a nobleman, a Viscount."
"What? Don't pay the fine? Then I can put you in the prison of the Security Department according to the regulations of Sheba City." Taki stared at Viscount Lip and the others with unkind eyes.
"Reason, why do you have to pay a fine?" Viscount Philip stared unwillingly.
"You trespassed on the military restricted zone and wanted to break in after being warned. Is that enough?" Taki sneered and said in a deep voice, "It's a good thing you are obedient, otherwise, you would already be a dead man."
Taki doesn't pay attention to the so-called nobles. As far as he knows, the security department has locked up many nobles. In Sheba City, the city lord and the laws and regulations are the most important.
"Just hand it over." Viscount Lippe felt that he couldn't make sense. The person in front of him was clearly a mess and didn't give him face at all.
"Go to the front desk over there to pay the fine and the berthing fee for the boat." Taki pointed to the buildings behind him.
"Let's go." Viscount Philip pulled the paper angrily, and walked towards the house in front.
There is a whole row of houses in front of the port, which is the customs of Sheba City. If you want to go to or leave Sheba City, you have to go through inspection and pay taxes.
This is HAD's inspection method on the other side of the earth, as well as the berthing management of ships and so on.
Viscount Philip walked forward with his men, and saw many people queuing up, as if they had received something similar to a warrant before they could pass the checkpoint over there, and even the goods had to be inspected.
"So strict?" Viscount Philip was a little surprised.
"My lord, this is really novel." The knight beside him sighed.
The more Viscount Philip observed, the more he was surprised. He found that there were so many people in this port, and there was no confusion. He suddenly understood why the fourth prince wanted to recruit this HAD.
Soon it was the turn of Viscount Philip and others to check and receive the clearance order.
"Hello, do you want to pass the customs? Is there any cargo? Is there a ship docking?" The staff asked several questions in succession.
"Yes, we have to pass, there is a boat." The knight replied immediately.
"Which berth is the ship berthed at?" The staff then asked.
"Stop at No. 120 No. ship, this is our ticket." The knight then replied on behalf of Viscount Philip.
"A ticket?" The staff took a look at the ticket, shook his head with a chuckle, and said lightly, "No. 120 No. berth is a large ship berth, and you have to pay fifty copper coins a day, plus a ticket for one gold coin. Pay one gold coin and fifty copper coins for the berthing fee."
"What? A fine of one gold coin?" The knight widened his eyes and subconsciously turned to look at Viscount Philip.
"Of course, you don't have to pay, but if you break into the restricted area, you will have to serve in the mine for three months." The staff member said indifferently.
"Help." Viscount Philip gritted his teeth, he didn't want to dig.
He glared at the boatmen, if they hadn't gone to see those big boats, how could they have paid the fine of this one gold coin.
"This is a ship berth card. You need to check it when you leave the port, and pay the ship berth fee." The staff handed a palm-sized iron piece to the knight, pointed to the counter next to it, and said, "Go over there to get the customs clearance order." , next time you go out to check."
"Okay." The knight took the iron plate and found that it said '120 No. berth', and there was a slot next to it, with a piece of paper stuffed on it, in red characters, and today's date was engraved on it.
"Let's go." Viscount Philip filled out some simple surveys and received a document with numbers on it.
The use of the regulations is to facilitate the calculation of the number of people, as well as the flow of people entering and leaving Sheba City. It is just one more step of the regulations, so that a lot of data can be obtained.
"It's really troublesome." Viscount Philip was a little impatient, it was so troublesome to enter a city.
Others followed suit, and it took about ten minutes to get everything done.

Chapter 0639 rules.
Viscount Philip led the team through the customs, and saw a wide road in front of him, which was still very flat, just like a port, and was divided into left and right sides, separated by trees in the middle.
On both sides of the wide road, there are two small roads, also separated by trees, but the road on the left is still being paved.
"Huh? Why do so many people go to the side path? Don't go to the middle path?" The knight asked strangely.
"Maybe it's for the nobles." Viscount Philip chuckled and walked towards the middle road.
"Hey, stop." There was a sudden shout from the side.
"Stop?" Viscount Philip was stunned, turned his head and glanced around, looking at the two armored knights suspiciously.
"Yes, it was you who called out." The soldier pointed at the silly Viscount Philip.
"Me?" Viscount Philip pointed at himself, what's the matter?Can't walk all the way?
"Come here, don't stand in the middle of the road." The soldier shouted, "Hurry up."
"Uh..." Viscount Philip was confused. He wanted to get angry, but he saw many people looking over and pointing at him, as if he had done something embarrassing.
"What's going on here?" Viscount Lippe's face darkened, and he walked towards the knight who called him, allowing him to hear the discussion next to him.
"Look, that person is new here, right? Don't you know the rules here?"
"I feel that this person is so stupid. He doesn't even understand some basic common sense. He looks like a nobleman."
"Shameful, too shameful."
"Carriages and horses can't stop on the road. He still walked towards the road. It's a trivial matter to die. Don't hurt others."
"That is, such ignorant people should be prohibited from coming to Sheba City to grab business."
"..."
With a dark face, Viscount Lippe came to the knight, suppressing his anger.
"Didn't you read that title?" The soldier pointed to a wooden board standing beside him.
"..." Viscount Lippe frowned, saw a row of words written on the wooden board, and said silently, "For carriages, horses take the middle road; pedestrians take the pedestrian roads on both sides, go left and right."
"Understood, you people go up, and you will be hit by a carriage later, but you will not be compensated." The soldier said coldly.
"This..." Lipu was dumbfounded, isn't there a noble passage in the middle?Is it for carriages and horses?
"If you want to take a carriage, you can take a taxi in the area over there. The next time someone walks on the road, he will be jailed." The soldier warned.
"Understood." Viscount Lippe responded quickly, and he didn't want to argue about anything. He couldn't bear the strange eyes beside him.
"Ta Tata..."
Viscount Philip walked in the direction pointed by the soldiers, and saw a whole row of carriages parked, and each carriage had a driver sitting in the carriage.
"So many carriages?" Viscount Philip was surprised, and walked towards the carriages.
"Hey, those over there, have some quality, don't jump in line."
A shout came from nearby.
Viscount Philip's whole body froze, and his face darkened immediately. Without thinking about it, he knew that it was him who was shouting. He couldn't help but turned his head and looked over, and saw a long team, and only one person in the team was shouting.
"Go to the line, everyone is waiting, you want to jump in line?"
"It's shameful. It looks like a nobleman, but he wants to jump in line."
"Think fast, don't want to become a member, but want to jump in the queue, it's embarrassing."
"..."
"I..." Viscount Lip was about to cry, he was just a newcomer to Sheba City, who knew these things.
"My lord, there is a wooden board over there with writing written on it." The knight reminded from the side.
"Uh..." Viscount Lippe looked over, and sure enough, he saw a wooden board on which was written: Taxi, please line up.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and went to line up honestly.
In a short period of time, he lost face twice, and then found that the habits in other cities could not be used here in Sheba City, and he couldn't run around with his head held high. There are many rules here.
"..." The knight remained silent. He found that this place is really good. It is not as messy as the suburbs of other cities. Everyone has rules, even the nobles are no exception.
Finally, they got into the carriage and were amazed by the new currency like steel coins.
"Ta Tata..."
The carriage ran onto the concrete road at a very fast speed, causing Viscount Philip, the knight and others to panic.
Looking at the trees passing by outside the window of the carriage, their faces turned pale. They remembered that they were fortunately stopped on the road just now, otherwise how could they stop at such a speed? Once they were hit, they would be fatal.
"Car, coachman, don't go so fast." Viscount Philip shouted hastily.
"Guest, don't worry, nothing will happen." The coachman shouted without turning his head. "Running on the road, there is a speed requirement. If you are too slow, you will be fined coins."
What the coachman was talking about was the new rules. It is not allowed to walk slowly on the road. Everyone is moving fast. After all, the road is so flat, and if you go too slowly, you will be hit by the horse behind.
And the running is slower, and he earns less. After all, it will take some time for him to pick up the passengers. In general, he earns more than before. It's just that the road is easier to walk, and the magical bearing saves the horse more effort. Yes, you can pull more people.
"What? You can't run slowly? What kind of dead rule is this?" Viscount Philip screamed.
2
"My lord, don't worry, we are here." The knight reassured him. He just saw a wooden board on the side of the road from the window, with the words 'fast horse road' written on it.
"Guests, don't worry. There are wooden boards on the side of the road to remind you to slow down. We have professional training." The driver smiled heartily.
A few days ago, after the road was paved, the city lord issued an order to let the coachmen learn some new knowledge, and added a lot of horses.
"What the hell is this place?" Viscount Philip regretted coming to Sheba City. Everything here is too weird, although it is amazing.
Chapter 0640 Naval port supply plan.
In Sheba City, HAD had just finished his lunch and went back to his study to sit down. Behind him, Mina, Annie and Nicole walked in.
"Master, do you want to leave now? Leia and the others will arrive around three o'clock." Mina asked softly.
The bird Beastkin will come to the air force base, and there is a high probability that most of the bird Beastkin will stay at the air force base to study, and some children will enter elementary school.
"Don't be so anxious, there are still two hours." HAD shook his head, handed the document on the desktop to Annie, and said, "Look at this document, if there is anything to add."
This is his next plan, he will plan several moves after taking one step, and this move is crucial.
"Okay." Annie took the document and it looked like the title was 'Narrial Port Replenishment Plan'.
Nico can boil water in a small kettle. She has recently become obsessed with tea art, which is more popular with her than those milk teas.
"Master, Biris wants to go out for a stroll." Mina sat on the table with half of her buttocks up.
"Not for the time being, her wound is not healed yet, lest she go out to eat some food with a strong smell, which is not good for the wound." HAD shook his head, he remembered that at the dining table, Biris hesitated to speak look.
He asked the back kitchen to cook light food for the mermaid, just to prevent the wound from getting worse, and taboos are still very important, so Biris felt itchy when she saw other people eating delicious food.
It is understandable to want to go out to play now. After all, she has been lying down for so many days, but HAD does not believe that Biris can withstand the temptation of delicious food outside.
"It looks like Biris will be pouting for another day." Mina chuckled lightly, flicking the cat's tail.
"You all went to lure her, saying how fun it is outside." Nicole scolded, and handed over a cup of tea in her little hand.
"It's Annie and Deess, they're always teasing Billis when they play poker at night." The corners of Mina's mouth raised, and she took the teacup with both hands.
"Tell her, you can go out in three days." HAD estimated the approximate time, the mermaid's physique is really strong, stronger than some Beastkin.
"Okay." Mina nodded.
"By the way, have all those invitations been sent out?" HAD asked, taking a sip of tea.
"It's already being distributed. Some city lords should come over in the past few days, but I don't know if they will choose us." Mina frowned. She didn't trust those nobles very much.
Compared with the four princes, how can they say that a prince has a stronger appeal, even if he is a prodigal dog.
"No, it's better not to come. It's better not to come for some brainless people, so that I won't get rid of them again." The corner of HAD's mouth twitched slightly, his plan does not lack some self-righteous people.
"Huh..." After reading the plan, Annie sighed, picked up the teacup Nicole put on the table, and drank it in three sips.
"How is it?" HAD handed the empty teacup to Mao Er Niang, and then passed it to Nicole.
"Master, does this...the kind of ship you mentioned really exist?" Annie's brown eyes were fixed on HAD, this plan was amazing.
"Of course, haven't you seen the main core before?" HAD said indifferently. He was talking about the first time he saw the steam engine.
"This steamship, no matter how you put it, is a bit too unbelievable." An Lihu pricked up her ears and exclaimed, "It can move forward without wind power."
Based on her knowledge, this is absolutely possible. Who has heard of this kind of ship?It's not recorded in the book at all.
"Next month, there should be a steamboat that can be launched. Don't you know by then?" HAD spread his hands, with an expression of waiting and watching.
With the current research and development progress of the scientific research department, the steamship is really not a big problem. The most core power principle and driving force have the blueprints given by him.
"Next month? Then the military port plan is really about to start." Annie nodded with a serious face, and asked another question, "Master, what if these cities don't want us to dock?"
"They don't want to, is it useful?" HAD asked back, his black eyes shining with confidence.
"Hee hee...it's really useless." Annie laughed dumbfounded. With Sheba City's current strength, she had to agree even if she disagreed.
"Is our current coal enough?" HAD was thinking about the power fuel of the steam engine, and he didn't have any gasoline.
"There is a lot of coal storage, especially with the addition of two power machines in the past two days, the speed of pulling coal has been accelerated many times." Annie exclaimed.
The power engine is the steam engine, and HAD forbids naming it with the steam engine, because it is too easy for people to know the important principle of the steam engine from the name.
He has not forgotten that there are dwarves in this world, but dwarves are born to forge and manufacture masters, and he is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
The steam engine will be one of HAD's trump cards for many years to come, and it is also one of the most important cores of the industrial revolution. Once someone cracks it, the leading edge will drop by %, which is what he does not want to see.
"Very good, then let's choose three military ports first." HAD smiled with satisfaction. Fuel supplies for steamships are very important.
"The coal that is full of equipment can probably go forward for a few days?" Annie took out the city distribution map on both sides of the Youshui River, which was sorted out by HAD's order.
"It's probably predicted that we can move forward for more than a day, which is the speed of the previous three days." HAD frowned and thought about it, and then decided, "Let's use the distance of the previous sailboat for three days. It will be safer."
"Then these city lords, young master, you are going to meet them." Annie drew a circle on the three cities on the map.
"Let's add Heishui City to it. For the time being, we will set four military port cities." HAD drew a circle on Heishui City.
"Then, it depends on whether the three city lords come this time." Annie's brown eyes shone with splendor.
The most important link has been added to the young master's plan to occupy the land in the west.
Chapter 0641 Spider Web Project.
"Mina, let someone search around these cities to see if there are any coal mines." HAD turned his head and told Mina.
2
In the future, the supply fuel of these four military ports must not be transported from Sheba City.You can do this at the beginning, but as time goes by, the cost will be too great.
Not to mention the ultra-long-distance military port in the future.
"Okay." Mina wrote it down.
"Master, do you want to garrison troops at the military port?" Annie asked a very important question.
"Of course." HAD nodded affirmatively. Is it still called a military port if there are no troops stationed?
One of the importance of the military port is to maintain the safety of the Golden Water River, and the value created by the Youshui River will be too great in the future.
Especially some water thieves, who are specially watching the passing ships. If the military port is stationed, it can deter those water thieves very well.
"This has increased the difficulty a lot." Annie wrote in her notepad that there was a huge difference between garrisoning troops and not garrisoning them.
"They will agree." The corners of HAD's mouth raised slightly, so what if it was a garrison?As long as the interests are big enough, he will definitely agree.
Even if he unifies the land in the west in the future, the importance of the military port will be truly reflected. With the military port as the fulcrum, the laser will be shot out, and the surrounding area will be the real control area.
In addition to the future train plan, the two lines intersect vertically, forming a spider web, holding all the regions firmly in the palm of your hand.
The two routes are also called the spider web project by HAD, that is, military control.
In order to truly control everything, HAD still has a financial plan and a public opinion plan. He wants to put everything in place, reform and control from the inside out.
If it is just to occupy territory, it is really not difficult. With HAD's strength and leading technology, he can annex city by city like a greedy snake, but that is too slow, and it consumes resources and is very tiring. , and the digestion is slow, and there is also the need to worry about some forces making trouble and instigating rebellion.
Compared with his current layout method, it is easier and will not consume too many resources. After all, the population in this era is too small, and population is also a resource.
"Okay, young master, this is a little plan I made." Annie handed the notepad to HAD, she needed some perfection.
Hu Erniang has now fully learned some of HAD's routines, and she can use some tricks, such as deception and temptation.
"Oh? So fast." HAD took the notepad in surprise and read it.
"Master, as long as they come to Sheba City and see the bustling Sheba City, they will definitely be moved." Annie flicked her fox tail. She was very confident that Sheba City was a living sign.
"Your plan is to let us help them develop the city?" HAD raised his eyebrows, which coincided with some of his ideas, but it lacked two most important things.
"Yes, we can give them some goods at a lower price, so that they will be tied to us." Annie pointed her finger at her chin, and her fox ears trembled, which was a sign of happiness.
"No, the layout is too small." HAD shook his head, his eyes were already on the layout of the entire Yingluo Kingdom.
"Huh? Master has other plans?" Annie was stunned.
"It is difficult to satisfy some people simply by providing goods, let alone our production capacity may not be able to keep up." HAD shook his head. The plan of Hu Erniang was okay in the early stage, but there were too many disadvantages later.
"Then what should I do?" Annie bit her finger. She understood what the young master meant, that the bait was big enough, but it might not satisfy those people.
"No, follow your plan in the early stage, and I will make up for it later." HAD stood up and said softly, "Let's go, go to the air force base."
"Okay!" Annie was thinking in distress, but she couldn't think of what method the young master would use later.
"If you can figure it out, you're not the idiot Annie." When Mina passed by, she patted the buttocks of the Annie teasingly.
"Snapped!"
"Ah... Damn it, look at me scratching the cat!" Annie panicked, and chased after her with all her teeth and claws.
"I can't hold back." Nicole shook her head, put down the teapot, and tidied up HAD's table. She rarely followed her out of the castle now. There were too many bills in the city that she needed to keep an eye on.
...
"Ta Tata..."
When the coachman saw the speed-reducing wooden board beside the road, he started to slow down the carriage. When it reached the edge of Sheba City, the carriage was already walking at a slow speed.
"Guest, the old city is in front of you." The driver introduced enthusiastically.
"Old town?" Viscount Lippe also calmed down at this moment, looking at the crowd working outside in doubt.
"It's just a joke among our commoners. The city owner demolished the old city wall and plans to expand the city. We call the area inside the city wall the old city."
The coachman was very accommodating, "Of course, the old town is not old, everything is new..."
Viscount Philip and the others just listened to the coachman 'Balabala' say a lot of things, but they didn't understand most of them, and they were despised by the coachman a few times.
such as:
You haven't heard the story of West Game?You are too artless.
What?You don't know buns?You are so pathetic.
snort!Don't you believe that there are dragons in the world?You are so ignorant.
Being completely despised by a coachman from art to knowledge, Viscount Philip and others were as black as charcoal, and they were so angry that they almost beat up the coachman. Are they really that bad?
"Okay, that's it, here is the main avenue, and you can start to walk up from here." The coachman parked the carriage at a platform, turned his head and said to Viscount Philip and the others, "Welcome to the new world, here you go." A piece of advice, let go of unnecessary airs, otherwise...hehe..."
Viscount Philip and others were left behind like this, and the coachman took the guests to the port again.
"Huh..." Viscount Lippe heaved a sigh of relief for some reason, and finally he didn't have to be despised by a lowly coachman.
"Ta Tata..."
There was the sound of horseshoes ahead of the road.
"Look, that's the city lord's car." Immediately someone shouted around.
2
"Huh? HAD?" Viscount Lip's eyes lit up, and he immediately ordered the knight next to him, "Go, stop him."
He heard that it was difficult for HAD to see each other, but now is an opportunity.
"Yes." Immediately, a knight obeyed the order and walked towards the middle of the road.
Chapter 0642 team choice!
"Hey, who the hell, is it too presumptuous to block the city lord's car?"
"Whoever comes, drive that person away quickly."
"Damn it, you dare to bump into the seat of the city lord."
"Ta Tata..."
As soon as the knight reached the middle of the road, he was surrounded by the surrounding civilians, who twisted and held his arms three or two times.
"This..." Viscount Lipu was stunned. He didn't expect that HAD's reputation was so high. He just wanted to stop the carriage and was besieged by the commoners.
The road was half blocked by civilians, HAD's carriage stopped, the Wolf Warriors team looked around vigilantly, and Xin Ke stepped forward to understand the situation.
"Everyone, please step aside." Sink said coldly.
"Shh!"
The civilians all stepped aside, leaving behind the injured knight with a bruised nose and bloody nose.
"Who are you?" Xin Ke held onto the handle of the Tang Dao with one hand, and if there was any abnormality, he would go with the knife.
"I, I am the knight of Viscount Leippe. My lord wants to see Baron HAD." The knight bared his teeth in pain.
"Who?" Xin Ke frowned, and glanced at the crowd unkindly. If someone stopped the carriage in the wild, maybe he would reward him with a crossbow first.
"It's me." Seeing that the request to stop the carriage had been met, Viscount Philip immediately walked out of the crowd.
"Take it." Sink ordered.
"Clang clang..."
"Don't move." Tang Dao of the wolf team unsheathed collectively, and surrounded the bewildered Viscount Lipu and others.
"I am a nobleman, I am a viscount, and I am under the command of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince." Viscount Lippu shouted loudly.
"Shut up." Xin Ke's eyes flashed coldly, and he wanted to draw the scabbard in his hand.
"Okay, bring someone here." HAD's voice came.
"Yes." Sink said respectfully, grabbed Viscount Philip's collar with one hand, and dragged him over to meet the city lord.
"You..." Viscount Lip's eyes widened and he was furious. Is he a prisoner for this humiliating gesture?
"My lord, people are coming." Sink pushed Viscount Lippe to the carriage.
"Oh? Are you sent by the fourth prince?" HAD pushed open the door of the carriage and looked at the middle-aged man in a panic.
"Yes." Viscount Philip straightened his clothes and said with a serious face, "I was sent by His Highness the Fourth Prince, and His Highness ordered you to go to Somalia City."
"Order?" HAD said lightly, with slightly curved lips, "What if I say no?"
"What? Don't go?" Viscount Lippe's eyes widened, looking at HAD's indifferent face in disbelief.
"I don't have that obligation, do I? I'm not a nobleman entrusted by him." HAD's black eyes flickered coldly.
Did he not expect Ding Keda to be in such a hurry?It seems that the war is not far away.
"This is His Royal Highness's warrant, do you want to refuse?" Viscount Lippe held a scroll and said in a deep voice, "Baron HAD, you'd better think clearly, Your Highness has more than 2000 knights."
These words are already a blatant threat, and they are almost saying that if you don't go, then the power of more than 2000 knights will level Sheba City.
"Hahaha..." HAD laughed suddenly, looked at Viscount Philip strangely, and said with a light smile, "Tell me first, what can the fourth prince give me when I go to Somalia?"
"This..." Viscount Philip faltered, he didn't know.
"What can he give me?" HAD asked again.
"..." Viscount Philip was silent, as if he couldn't give anything, a promise?It seems too unreal.
"It seems that there is nothing to give." HAD's faint smile retracted, and he said indifferently, "Since he can't give anything, then what face does he have to order me to go to Somali City? Is it a white wolf with empty hands?"
"You... are too rude, that is His Royal Highness the fourth prince, isn't his order enough?" Viscount Lippe shouted angrily.
"It's just a prodigal dog." Annie poked her head out from the side, glanced at Viscount Philip with disdain, and then shrank back... 0
"You..." Viscount Lip blushed, he was despised by an Beastkin.
"A name, he doesn't have that much face if he wants me to obey orders." A coldness flashed in HAD's eyes.
"You will regret it, you will definitely regret it." Viscount Philip shouted loudly, "Your Highness will not let you go."
"I'll wait for him." HAD waved at Xin Ke and went back to the carriage.
He thought he would send someone with some weight over, but he didn't expect that the fourth prince still didn't take him seriously, so he sent a no-brainer over.
Not even a shy promise to win over.
"You, you will regret it, His Royal Highness's Knights will bulldoze this place..." Viscount Lippe clamored.
"Snapped!!!"
2
Sink's scabbard slammed into Viscount Philip's face, and a few teeth were pulled out, and the shouting stopped abruptly.
"Get out of the way." Sink pushed Viscount Philip away and escorted the carriage to the outside of the city.
"Ta Tata..."
In the carriage, HAD sneered.
"Master, why don't you send them to mine?" Mina was wielding a saber in her hand, she wanted to stab Viscount Philip just now.
"He has to go back alive." HAD chuckled and said slowly, "What will the fourth prince choose? Should he come directly to fight, or win people over first? This is an interesting multiple-choice question."
"Huh? Young master, are you putting pressure on those city lords?" Annie had a flash of inspiration and immediately understood HAD's intentions.
"Today's events will spread quickly." HAD's black eyes flickered with calculations, and he turned to Mina and said, "Let's add fuel to the flames and spread today's events to let those city lords know."
He not only put pressure on those city lords, but also gave them a multiple-choice question and a chance to stand in line.
"Yes." Mina replied seriously.
Chapter 0643 stubborn Leiya.
It was five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was setting, and a series of black spots were floating in the sky. Looking from below, I thought it was wild geese flying north.
Looking closer, it is a hot air balloon, and then it is pulled forward by a bird Beastkin, and Leya is the leader.
"Huhuhu..."
"Master Chief, do you want to take a break?" A little girl stood on the hanging basket and shouted excitedly, "I still have a small piece of wheat cake here."
"No, you can eat." Leiya replied coldly, "It's almost here."
Not all people in the village call her elder sister or elder sister, only those who are close to her call her elder sister, and the rest call her leader.
"Huhuhu..."
Leia flapped her wings and glanced around. She was afraid of accidents. It happened once before. Someone almost burned the hot air balloon, otherwise she would have rushed to the air force base.
"It's been a while later than the agreed time, the sun is about to set." Leia muttered to herself, and glanced at the setting sun in the distance.
"My lord, someone is flying over in front of you." A bird-clan Beastkin shouted loudly.
"Huh?" Leia glanced forward, and her sharp green eyes immediately saw the figure in front of her. It was so familiar. It was Frey and several human races, using the hang glider.
"It looks like it's coming." Leya felt relieved, she turned her head and shouted to the people behind her, "It's the one who will respond."
"Whoosh!"
Soon, Frey approached Leiya and the others, and after seeing that Leya was fine, her hanging heart was relieved.
"My lord, the air force base is ahead." After speaking, Fleur controlled the hang glider to fly back. It was too dangerous to fly into the sky at this time.
If she hadn't strongly requested, Master HAD would not have let her fly into the sky, after all, it was getting dark soon.
After flying for about ten minutes, everyone saw the conspicuous fire on the air force base and the strong smell of meat. After a few minutes, everyone started to land safely one after another.
"It's finally here." Leya's tense heartstrings slowly relaxed, looking at her stiff companions, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, it was a good start.
Over 100% of the more than bird tribe Beastkin are children, and they are eagerly looking forward to the mutton grilled on the charcoal fire.
Those adult bird-clan Beastkin were not much better, they licked their dry mouths from time to time, and their throats swelled from time to time.
The aroma of roasted lamb was so strong that many people's stomachs started to growl, even Leya was no exception.
"Welcome back." HAD looked at the dazed Leiya, and said softly, "You look good when you smile."
"..." Leya was stunned for a moment, and glanced at HAD expressionlessly, but her ears turned red, and she pursed her lips. She couldn't answer these words with her character.
"Come here and have something to eat, this is specially for everyone to clean up the dust." A smile flashed across HAD's black eyes.
"Okay." Leya hesitated for a second, then nodded in agreement.
"Everyone, let's eat." HAD shouted to everyone.
"Oh!" The soldiers at the air force base, as well as Mina, Annie and others shouted.
This scene stunned the Bird-Clan Beastkin, and they were forcibly pulled into the act of eating meat. After eating the mutton, many Bird-Clan Beastkin let go of their reservations and started discussing in low voices.
"Wow, this meat is so delicious, it's the best meat I've ever eaten in my life."
"The leader didn't lie to us, there is really something to eat here."
"..."
Leia looked at her companions with smiling faces, and the corners of her mouth raised involuntarily. Just for these smiles, she felt that everything was worth it.
"A very good choice, isn't it?" HAD said slowly, and handed over a piece of cut leg of lamb.
"Yes." Leya hesitated for a moment, and took the leg of lamb with an unnatural expression on her face. She thought of her previous performance, and now she felt silly thinking about it.
"Others, you can take it too." HAD took the mutton that Mina handed over again, raised his finger to the other side of the air force base, which was another hill, and said, "That side can be divided into your living."
"Okay." Leya nodded and agreed, this place is much better than Shizhu Mountain.
"The children should go to study and learn to read and write. They can't all join the army." HAD said softly, looking at the children who were eating oily mouths.
"Okay." Leia nodded.
She was stunned for a while, when would she listen to someone like that?
