Chapter 2 Co-opting Chips [2]

In the imperial capital of the Roman Empire, the millennium city known as the golden capital, still maintains its unique prosperity. After several ups and downs and hundreds of years, it is still so majestic. It was once said that the only place in the world without war is Roma City.

In the aristocratic council, many lords' eyes were cold, as if they had some kind of bitter hatred, and their gloomy eyes came one after another. The princes of the empire are high above, with four golden seats lined up. Under the seat was the high lord, and dozens of dukes and countes were silent. The imperial ministers sat in a circle around the hall. At this time, the atmosphere was very solemn. Only one coughed occasionally showed that the people in the hall were still alive.

"Gentlemen, I think it is necessary for us to put down our prejudices and have a good talk." In the end, it was Mike, the old minister of the empire and the magic minister of the empire with strong strength. Russell. The dean of the Imperial School of Magic has connections that are definitely not what ordinary officials and lords can imagine. Someone even once made an assertion: Mike. Russell's disciples can make a big kingdom for him as long as he wants.

This is not alarmist. With the energy of the Imperial Magic Academy alone, it can indeed do this. Moreover, it will never be a very difficult thing. Therefore, the status of this old minister in the empire is very high. If you have to make an example, then he is equivalent to Sabonis in the Tauren tribe.

"Mr. Mike, the problem now is that none of us are ready to deal with the enemy. Now many affiliated countries have raised their dissatisfaction. Even a few small countries bordering the Slavic Empire are intended to submit to the Slavic Empire and need asylum. A lord who stood up was the Earl of White, who was led by the Earl White. The gray-haired old count's badge was a white-headed eagle, with sharp eyes staring ahead, as if he were condescending and proud.

Seeing the count speak, the nobles in the hall shouted deliberately, as if to cater to each other. But when he saw the gloomy eyes of Count White, he continued to speak. After all, at this time, the division within the empire has become more and more obvious. Although no one has completely claimed to break up or something, look at the four high princes. The eyes between them have made people feel that this possibility will break out at any time.

Although Mike. Russell is trying his best to maintain a balance in the country, but he also knows in his heart that this country must have a competition to return to peace. Perhaps, it can only be said that Frank I did not set up a crown prince, which was a big joke. This made the boss of a thousand-year-old empire decayed, but also added some power to push down the house.

"Ha, are you afraid that Count White is adjacent to the Grand Duchy of Norman? Are you afraid that those barbarians in the north will suddenly rush over and plunder your territory? Some people sneered at the beginning, and everyone was slightly stunned. All the people who could stand up with such a big count were outstanding figures.

The lively psychology of the nobles has not been alleviated even in this turbulent season. Looking at the child who stood up slowly, everyone realized that it was him!

This person is Ursula. Prince Rom. Before the era of Frank I, the people who were most likely to approach the throne. But it's a pity that the initial indecisiveness made the prince lose the throne that was once readily available. In exchange, it is just the humbleness that has been dormant for decades. But the pride in his bones is already the pride of the good blood of the royal family, which makes him think that the time has come for him to regain control of the country.

The four princes were slightly stunned. Even Alex, a person with real power, was puzzled: What on earth does this old guy want to do?

"Prince Ursula, what do you mean? Am I White a timid and afraid of death? At this moment, in the face of the madman of the Grand Duchy of Norman, the mad dog, the barbarian of the southern continent, isn't what we want to do is to destroy him? Count White was not afraid of Ursula's status at all, although Ursula was also famous and in a high position throughout the empire. After all, he was once the closest person to the throne.

"Destroy? Count White, you seem to have forgotten who the biggest enemy of the empire is!" Although Prince Ursula is over middle-aged, in fact, he still maintains his 30-year-old vitality because of his proper maintenance. Although some people say that he has a secret method, it doesn't matter. The important thing is that he still looks very rich and powerful. Suddenly, the nobles who came back, their hearts were stunned and said secretly: Does this prince also want to get a foot?

The chaotic big empire, at this moment, I don't know what's going on. There are always people jumping out like this and that.

"Of course, our biggest enemy is naturally the vulgar Slavs! However, this is not certain! For now, I think the name is Tiger. House's barbarian, the mad dog, is the biggest enemy of the empire at present!" Although Count White vowed to be awe-inspiring justice, the nobles sneered in their hearts: the biggest enemy? Joke! If it hadn't been too close to your territory, I'm afraid you wouldn't have danced like this.

It's just that such words can't be said. Although Count White danced happily, there were few people who supported him. Prince Ursula stood up, waved his hand and said loudly, "Gentlemen, you seem to have forgotten the current situation. What we have to face is not only a Slavic empire, but also Gran. The southern Nile Empire on the other side of the German Sea, which of the two countries is not to enter the central continent? What we have to face has never been a crude enemy, but a very powerful enemy. Therefore, if we go to war with the Grand Duchy of Norman at this time, what we get is just a heavy hit. Well, even if we win, we win. So, gentlemen, I would like to ask you that forces like the Holy Light Knights finally fell to the point of complete annihilation, that is to say, the combat effectiveness of the barbarians in the north is definitely greater than we imagined. I can even think that their combat effectiveness can already counterbalance the Slavic Empire, I think, There is no good excuse!"

With that, Prince Ursula looked at Prince Alex and asked, "Alex, you can explain the strength of the northern barbarians in person."

When everyone heard Prince Ursula's words, their eyes fell on Prince Alex. Alex was cold and said secretly: This uncle's ability is really amazing. I didn't expect it to turn my attention to me.

Although Alex has put all the responsibility on the Holy Light Knights of the Holy See, this does not prevent anyone from insinuating that he is timid, unmotivated, and self-insidious. It's just that Alex is the most powerful heir to the throne after all, so no one really attacked him.

"Well, since my uncle wants me to say it, I'll tell you my opinion." Alex stood up, and Alex, dressed as a prince, looked like the demeanor of the previous generation of emperors. Compared with the sickness of Frank I, it is much stronger. It gives people the illusion of a prosperous emperor, but anyway, he only has the greatest possibility. In this empire, there are too many interests involved, and no one will give up easily. Therefore, there is not much conclusion about who will ascend to the throne.

"First of all, I want to say that the Normans are not without magic troops. They have a very powerful Black Magician troops! I even saw a lot of frightening necromancers in these magicians' troops. The ability of these mages is beyond your imagination. Alex looked serious, which made the nobles slightly stunned and said to himself: How can the army of the empire be afraid of the humble army of those barbarians?

This is the sadness of the boss empire. It is always self-contained. I don't know that in this world, there have been people chasing and even surpassed it for a long time. Moreover, it is so powerful that it makes people shudder.

"Brother, I think you are scared by the humble barbarian. How can a border country be the opponent of the 350,000 Northern Legion? You are the army that holds 50,000 magicians. No matter how powerful their energy is, there can't be 5,000 magicians. The strange voice of Yin and Yang sounded, and some people were overjoyed and said secretly: What a good show.

In Alex's third seat, it was Isado, the third prince of the empire. The prince, who was famous for his wisdom, looked sideways at his brother, crossed his hands, and his body tilted slightly, looking casual and lazy. But it adds a little elegant temperament. This temperament is most admired by magicians and scholars. The speech master of this country is nothing more than a stereotyped scholar. They did not hide their disgust and disgust at all about the iron-blooded prince Alex, but they praised Ixado and did not say any of their praise.

"Ixedo! Are you talking to your brother?" Alex looked at Isado with sharp eyes, but he didn't expect it. Isado smiled and said, "Big brother, are you putting on a gesture to scold your brother?" When he spoke like this, he immediately made the two brothers next to him tighten their eyes. Although this does not provoke color, it is also slightly flirting. The second prince Dan and the fourth prince Claudine both looked disgraceful and turned around and didn't go to see Alex.

Alex said to himself: Isido is really cunning.

But at this time, he didn't think about this kind of problem. With a cold hum, Alex put his head away and didn't look at them.
