Chapter 417: What do you catch is the Necromancer, what does it have to do with me, Yinlong Li Wei(1/2)
As the third largest port in Calinshan, Manshaca Port was originally quite embarrassed because it was not able to catch up with the dividends of the Age of Discovery because of its location too close to the Shining Sea.
Until a slave rebellion twenty years ago, Sirpasha, who was unable to suppress the flames that swept through the city at the first time, escaped from the royal city with his confidants overnight, crossed the Karin River, and rushed to the city.
Before the news came, he moved in to take over this underdeveloped city-state, and then watched the entire Karin Kingdom fall into unprecedented strife.
In the following years, the exiled king did not fail to raise troops to quell the war and regain the city of Kalin, but basically every time it would end with the entire army of servants wiping out the main force and fleeing back to Manshaka. This was not the case in Kalin.
Shan's aristocratic circle has become an open joke.
And an incompetent and absurd king also met the expectations of the pasha nobles. Coupled with the threat of Ivicola Saglan, the ancient blue dragon who levied taxes every hundred years, this king was placed in this way.
Come down.
But the magic is that Sir Pasha has fought so many defeats over the years, and rebellions and coups within Manshaka are also commonplace, but they are quickly suppressed every time. Instead, a group of local nobles who were implicated suffered a bloody misfortune.
, and Sir Pasha's rule over the seaport city-state of Manshaka has become increasingly stable.
This made the other pashas of Kalinshan envious of this dim-witted king. They believed that the reason why he has not fallen until now is simply because he has an extremely loyal and beautiful court mage, who can win every time.
Resolving and suppressing these crises allowed him to continue to live a carefree and luxurious life as a king.
On this day, in the temporarily renovated palace of Sir Pasha in Manshakar Port, Angela, a court mage, received a letter from the city of Kashui in the North, conveyed through layers of magic and creatures.
"Lord Kelben of the Blackstaff?"
Theoretically, such messages between lords and monarchs should be delivered in person by special messengers and read out in court. Others are not qualified to open and read them privately without the permission of the monarch.
But when this voluptuous and veiled court mage raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw the signature, he looked over it without scruple, as if this was an extremely normal and natural thing.
"Jishui City, Silvermoon Federation and Zeelandia have decided to jointly attack Luskan? Won't the Dissension Cultists in Luskan have a headache?"
Angela immediately gloated and murmured with a smile:
"Fight, fight, only more war and death can please my lord Melkor."
However, tax evasion is tax evasion, and the process still needs to be gone through.
So Angela put away the letter from the North, walked through the heavily guarded palace, and came to this temporary royal court.
From a distance, you can see many dancers wearing only tulle or even a piece of clothing running around in the courtyard, and a middle-aged man with a frivolous face and a good appearance is chasing Mei Ji intoxicatedly. Once
Catch these beautiful beauties and execute them on the spot as if no one else is watching.
After a while, I lived a happy life with my feet on Baiyun Mountain, purple grapes in my mouth, funny music in my left hand, and fermented bean curd in my right hand. The whole courtyard was filled with the sound of melancholy, and the scene was like the wine pond and meat forest of Blue Star.
A fight.
But Angela seemed to regard these women as nothing, and walked straight to the kingdom that was busy sowing the seeds of life, looking straight at her and saying:
"Your Majesty, in order to deal with Luskan, the Northland has decided to form a coalition to go north, and called on the Sword Coast coastal city-states to unite the alliance. This is the covenant they conveyed today. Do you need me to read it to you?"
Silpasha waved his hand in disgust:
"Miss Angela can just decide these little things on her own."
Angela raised her head slightly and looked down at the king of Kalishan expressionlessly, feeling that she still needed to remind her:
"This covenant has the divine seal witnessed by the goddess of magic, and it needs to be signed by your majesty."
"Goddess of Magic?"
Silpasha suddenly became excited and entered the intermittent sage mode. He was finally able to think with difficulty.
Then he remembered the colorful legends about the relationship between the goddess of magic and the chosen believers. He was suddenly in awe, with a smile on his face, and looked at Angela and said:
"Miss Angela, you said that if I believe in the secret of the goddess of magic at this time...what is the secret? Will this goddess come here to have fun with me?"
This fierce question made even Angela, who had long been accustomed to the king's absurdity, unable to help but twitch the corners of her mouth:
"I'm afraid...it won't work."
"Then what's the use of my faith in Him?"
Silpasha seemed a little disappointed, and then looked at the covenant in Angela's hand and suddenly had a bold idea:
"You said this covenant is marked by the divine power of the goddess of magic?"
Before Angela could react, the suddenly excited king grabbed the covenant, looked at the mark of divine power glowing on it, and immediately pulled out the blood-stained weapon he had just executed with a blushing face.
Angela lay on the ground with slightly dull eyes, and signed her name on the covenant with her big sword.
It was as if the goddess of magic was lying in front of him, and she was blaspheming her face.
"Stop it!!! You idiot!"
Angela's expression changed drastically when she finally reacted.
It seemed as if he might see a bolt of thunder striking down from the clear sky at the next moment, and his mind was racing as to how to save this fool from the punishment of the gods.
No matter how stupid and absurd this king is, he still has great use value.
And her value is almost tied to this Foolish King. Once the other party really tries to kill her, her status in the church will plummet.
Perhaps this unprecedented experience made the king too excited. After the signing of the covenant, his whole body began to tremble like a baboon in heat, causing the mark of the goddess of magic to be stained with the color of Sirpasha.
"It's over!"
At this moment, Angela's face turned pale, and she could even hear her heartbeat beating rapidly in her chest.
But after a few seconds passed, nothing happened.
In Angela's eyes, Silpasha, who had undoubtedly blasphemed the gods just now, was still alive and kicking, as if he had just returned from the Kingdom of God, with saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth and a look of intoxication on his face.
"What's happening here?"
Angela, who finally recovered, looked up at the sky with a confused look on her face.
At this moment, a guard came quickly, not daring to look more, lowered his head and reported:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty Angela, the Ruiden Federation of Carlin City sent envoys. They brought several withered corpses and asked us to make an explanation for the robbery of Genat and the escort group at Ponte Exchange on the banks of the Carlin River.
explain."
Immediately, he briefly informed Angela of the battle that took place on the Karin River today and its outcome.
"Isn't it said that Jenny Sal did it? How could they find us?"
Angela was also a little confused when she heard this. She immediately thought of the dried corpse mentioned by the guard before, and her pupils suddenly shrank, as if she had thought of something, and said:
"Where is the body? Take me to see it."
A quarter of an hour later, Angela saw the messengers from Carlin City and their so-called rotten corpses, and finally understood the crux of the matter.
There were almost three hundred such skeleton-like corpses on the battlefield.
Even though they were all dressed as members of the Jenny Sal rebels, they would transform their own people into undead warriors if they had nothing to do, and the rebel organization, which was almost composed of slaves and half-elves, obviously did not have that ability.
But in the entire Kalishan, only necromancers who twist runes can mass-produce undead warriors of this scale.
As we all know, after Twisted Rune failed to take the lead in Carlin City, the main force went to Manshaka Port to get involved with Sir Pasha, who was also a loser.
Twisted Rune is essentially the peripheral organization of their death sect.
And she, Sir Pasha's chief court mage, is also world-famous as a necromancer.
One of the largest treasury under the Ruiden Federation, no, that means that the largest treasury of that group of merchants suddenly had a hole. It would be strange not to trouble Silpasha...
"This is not the work of our Twisted Runes. Perhaps, you should suspect the group of merchants who are trading with Ponte slaves."
Angela said this to the representatives from the Ryden Federation.
The fat man whose figure was exactly the same as that of the dead slave trader Genat suddenly became angry and cold:
"Do you know who is behind those Northland businessmen?
"That is His Majesty Levis, Lord of Zeelandia!
"That's a silver dragon! Silver dragon, do you understand?
“There will be a silver dragon that uses the necromancer as its ally?
"Are you insulting my Lunat's intelligence?
"Um?"
She raised her hand to wipe away the spit that splashed on her face, took a deep breath and asked:
"Where's their ship?"
"We should have almost sailed out of the Sea of Glory by now." Another messenger thought for a while and replied.
Angela heard this and knew that this matter was troublesome.
Although Kalishan will have some patrol ships at the border between the Sea of Radiance and the Sea of Swords, even if the other party is intercepted now, the covenant in their hands has already taken effect.
Maybe Sir Pasha does not have much prestige in Kalishan, but it concerns the interests of the entire coastal city-state and the covenant with the North. I am afraid that after seeing the emblem of the covenant and the goddess of magic, he will probably not ask for trouble.
, and by the time the Ruiden Federation discovered the scene of the incident, it was already too late.
Moreover, with the rumored combat effectiveness of that armored ship, if the other party wanted to force its way in, ordinary patrol boats would not be able to stop it.
Angela was very depressed.
It was as if someone had smashed a black pot on her forehead. There was glue in the pot and she couldn't pull it out.
To be continued...
