Chapter 842
“The situation is not right. Everyone! Evacuate temporarily!”
“Captain Negan?”
“There is no news from those people, and the target is not there.”
Answered briefly the adjutant’s question, this group of people disappeared on the plain as if they had never appeared.
…
The bright moon was in the sky, but Gu Geoff’s team was galloping as if completely unaffected.
Ge Gefu, who was riding on a horse, slowed down specially to go in parallel with Cao Shurui.
As for why Cao Shurui would ride a horse…what horse would dare not let him ride? The senses of animals are much more sensitive than humans.
“Your Majesty will be very happy to meet a powerful magic caster like you. IMHO, I am afraid that you have mastered the fifth-order magic? The limit of human beings is the sixth-order magic. Magic above the seventh-order, human being It is impossible to learn. Therefore, a magic caster as powerful as your lord will definitely be regarded as a guest of honor by your majesty.”
As a soldier, Gu Geoff will not let go of this opportunity to dig people. Since the Association of Adventurers had no knowledge of Taishan and gave a bronze medal to a man who can be called a strategic weapon, he would naturally not be stingy in poaching.
Although he couldn’t feel the slightest aura from Cao Shurui’s body, magic would not deceive people.
As a result, Cao Shurui just shook his head.
“Your kindness, I appreciate it. However, I will not work for the king.”
Even if Cao Shurui only had enough force and responsibility to be king, he was also called a king. As long as this title is still there, it is impossible to work for other kings. Not to mention, this king is very likely to be his mission goal.
Maybe, Cao Shurui gathered all the materials and left?
“…That’s it.”
Sensing keenly the indifferent dominance of His Excellency K when he mentioned the word “king”, Ge Geoff wisely chose not to talk.
The strong, there is no way to have a personal temper. It is impossible to force them to obey.
Next, Geoffrey changed the subject and talked about other things.
When the visibility was reduced to a level that was not suitable for horses to run, Gu Geoff led people to dismount the horses and cut down trees to make torches.
Glow flashed on his body, he shouted, and instantly swung several swords at the same time, rubbing the air at high speed to ignite the torch.
[That is martial arts. It feels like some kind of game skill. 】
Cao Shurui had a sense of sight in his heart from Ge Gefu’s stiff action. It was as if he used Kirito’s sword skills in the first place.
The field of vision was ensured, and the team moved forward again.
In order to avoid being attacked by possible enemies, Gu Geoff chose Starry Night, and Cao Shurui would naturally not object. If necessary, with his current physique, he can even stay up for a week without sleep.
…
Riyestije, the king of the kingdom of Riyestije.
The capital of a country with a total population of about 9 million people is best described by the term “old city”. This is not only because it has a long history, but also implies that the daily life in it is always so plain, just an old and lifeless city, immutable.
As long as you walk on the road, you can understand this immediately.
The houses surrounded by trees are mostly old and simple, without a trace of novelty or gorgeousness. Some people think that this is a kind of long history and calmness, while others think that this is a permanently stagnant, boring and boring city.
Many roads in the capital are not paved, and the road width is not too wide. In order not to hinder the passage of horse-drawn carriages, the appearance of the citizens walking on both sides of the road is really messy.
But only the main avenue is rarely paved with stone slabs, and the roads are also very spacious.
Rows of houses along the roadside are all magnificent and exudes an atmosphere of wealth.
“Those are the residences of the nobles. Do you feel too polarized? Under the suppression of the nobles, this is also helpless. No matter how hard we try, we can’t win much benefit for the civilians.”
It seemed that he had noticed Cao Shurui’s gaze, and Ge Gefu’s low voice sounded in his ears.
The two were sitting in the carriage going to the palace.
Back to the royal capital, it was already yesterday.
After resting for a night, they took the captives and held them with their own hands, and then went to the palace.
“Is the king’s power weaker than the nobility?”
Raising an eyebrow, Cao Shurui asked casually.
In a country with a feudal system, the appearance of this kind of thing generally means the collapse of the regime.
This is absolutely impossible if this king holds a divine tool.
“…If your Lord K, it doesn’t hurt to know.”
With a wry smile, Gu Geoff lowered his voice and began to talk.
Among the three nations of mankind, the kingdom is currently the weakest.
The reason is that the nobles of the kingdom are currently divided into two powers, the royal faction and the noble faction.
The royal faction supports and works for the current king.
The aristocratic faction is secretly standing with the royal faction, trying to support the prince under its own control after the current king abdicates, and thus control the entire country.
Because of their political struggles, the kingdom’s power is not considered strong, and a lot of it is wasted in internal consumption.
Coupled with the fact that the empire has always been eyeing the kingdom, with year-round wars, internal and external troubles, the kingdom has naturally become the most vulnerable country.
Hearing this, Cao Shurui narrowed his eyes.
[If this is the case, then my thoughts are all wrong. 】
Whether it is the king or the noble, if you take those two materials, it is absolutely impossible to allow the current situation.
In other words, Cao Shurui is very likely to make a trip for nothing.
[Fine. Obtaining this information can barely be considered a loss. 】
Just as Cao Shurui was thinking about what to do next if there were no materials in the palace, suddenly, a rush of electricity across his mind interrupted his thoughts.
“Ding! Found the task item-the resurrection scepter!”
The prompt sound of the system sounds at the right time.
Vaguely, Cao Shurui felt that there was something he wanted behind him on the right.
[No, it’s not just that——]
