Chapter 268: Happy Cooperation, Your Highness.
When Raphael heard this, his heart suddenly had a little meaning. Dybala Ottore's actions were not so early, is it a secret that everyone doesn't know? Or is it because of something else?
What Rafael didn't know was that Dybala Ottore made this decision because of Raphael. When the Lord of Bradley said that there was a young magician who had broken through the sixth order, he was moved. Especially when he knew that Raphael was going to the harbor of St. Helier, he couldn't sit still. Because he knew that the troops of Archduke Louis Perchens were stationed in it, and it would be a loss for the Empire if such a potential fellow was dug into a corner by them!
He didn't want this to happen, he was wary and wary of Archduke Louis Perchens, but Archduke Louis Perchens's roots were already deeply rooted in the Ottore Empire, and it affected his whole body. He can't do it without really grasping the handle! Otherwise, it would not be a blow to Archduke Louis Pöchens, but to the Ottore royal family!
The good name of the Grand Duke Louis Perchens has become his best hole card, so even if he knows that this person has a disobedient heart, he can't move and dare not move!
So he needs to gather more talents, a non-factional nobleman who has no color yet, and he can't say anything in the hands of the other party! For too long, many talents in the empire were divided among these powerful nobles, and most of the talents left for the Ottore royal family were selected and leftover. As a result, the powerful aristocracy grew stronger, and the Ottore royal family became weaker.
Although Ottore XI was the king of the dead country, he continued Ottore X's idea to vigorously develop the academy belonging to the royal family, for which Ottore XI even introduced many royal books into it, promulgated a reward system, and vigorously excavated new talents from the common people. Since the succession of Ottore XI, the strength of the Ottore royal family has indeed improved in the long run! This is something that no historian can deny!
"I have a solution." However, this does not affect Rafael's decision, especially with the involvement of Dybala Ottore, it will be easier to do things on his own.
"Huh? Speak up and listen. Dybala Ottore said with interest, the young man in front of him brought him a lot of surprises, and in terms of purpose, it was a worthwhile trip.
"But I might have to ask His Highness some questions first." Raphael was not in a hurry to say his plan, and said it somewhat rudely. However, Raphael knew very well that for the prince, a straightforward chat would be more in line with his heart. As it happened, Raphael was also a little tired of the nobles' laughter hiding knives in their conversations.
"Oh, of course. You ask, I answer. Sure enough, Dybala Ottore nodded very happily, raised his hand slightly, and the attendant behind him took a few drinks that shone with a light blue light, "The juice made of crystal fruit is refreshing, and it is very suitable for a glass at this time." "Crystal fruit, as the name suggests, is as crystal clear as crystal, and the price is amazing, a single crystal fruit can be sold for a hundred gold soles! However, it is really nothing for the prince in front of him, because the only place where the crystal fruit is produced is the Felix Hills.
The mouth is sweet, just flowing in the mouth has left a fragrance on the lips and teeth, swallowing into the stomach is even more aftertaste, and the brain is even cooler, as if someone took an ice pack and gently applied it to your forehead.
"How many troops has Your Highness brought here this time?" Since Myron Kellogg is here, there's no reason why Dybala Ottore shouldn't bring the army here, because his favorite type of fight is blitzkrieg.
"A thousand." Dybala Ottore raised an index finger and said to Raphael.
"Elite?"
"Yes."
"So, does Your Highness plan to tear the skin directly with Archduke Louis Perchens or do you want to keep some leeway?" Raphael's question was so acute that Myron Kellogg and Joshua Kitts' faces changed slightly. Even Dybala Ottore stopped talking, as if he was feeling the problem of a problem.
"What do you think?" After a battle between heaven and man, Dybala Ottore exhaled and threw the question at Rafael.
"Leave room for improvement." Raphael's answer was very affirmative, and if Dybala Ottore had just said to tear the skin, then Raphael would have been careful to walk between the two sides. And Dybala Ottore gave himself the ball, so he could give him some ideas. They have the same purpose, and it is undoubtedly a good thing to be able to reach a partnership.
"Can you hear your thoughts?" Dybala Ottore was really tempted to break with Archduke Louis Pöchens, and he already had some clues in his hands, if he could get some favorable evidence in the harbor of St. Helier......
"His Highness's hesitation just now shows that he wants to tear his face with Archduke Louis Perchens, and he thinks that His Highness should have something useful in his hands. But, with the shrewdness of Archduke Louis Perchens, do you think that the evidence in your hands was deliberately left by him to those who have a will? He may not know that His Highness is on guard, but if Your Highness were to put this matter into the mix, do you think Grand Duke Louis Perchens would sit still? ”
"And I, a country nobleman, know the prestige of Archduke Louis Perchens in the Ottore Empire, and don't Your Highness know better than I do? And what will happen at that time, I think Your Highness knows better than me, whether the royal family and the royalists will be able to fight against these wolves? ”
"Of course, my words do not mean that His Highness is inactive in the harbor of St. Helier. It is a reckless act to tear your face, but at this moment, His Highness has the power in his hands, and he is completely able to use this matter as a breakthrough to bring some blows to Archduke Louis Perchens! Although this will also make Archduke Louis Perchens wary of His Highness, as long as the means are right. This one can only swallow the broken tooth into his stomach! If you do it, you can also cut off some of the wings and fame of Archduke Louis Perchens! This is also the time for the Ottore royal family to accumulate popularity! ”
Raphael spoke in a beaming manner, analyzing the stakes. With this prince's military talents, he must have his own considerations in this regard. But even if their advisors knew some of these things, depending on the strength of the two sides, they would inevitably deliberately deviate from the topic. There must be people who can look down on the situation of both like Raphael, but it is rare to think of it that dares to say it so sharply.
"Good, good, good." Three good words describe Dybala Ottore's mood at the moment, and Raphael's words can be said to have entered his heart!
"Since Your Highness thinks that there is nothing wrong with my thoughts, then we are talking about something practical." Raphael saw that Dybala Ottore agreed with his statement, and then spoke up.
"You say." Dybala Ottore has become more and more appreciative of Raphael, and his desire to attract him is even stronger than before. If he valued Raphael's strength before, now he values not only strength, but also wisdom and a mouth that dares to speak!
"I need His Highness to promise me two things." Take a sip of the crystal fruit juice next to it.
"First of all, I want to borrow His Highness's 'Dark Crow'!" The Raven, an elite unit under Dybala Ottore, is used to infiltrate, gather intelligence, assassinate and a series of shady things.
"The name of the prophet of Bartholomew, I now understand it! Sure enough, there is no mediocrity under the title. Few people in our army know about this army, and I didn't expect it to be broken by you so easily! Okay, I can borrow you! Dybala Ottore clapped and exclaimed.
"The second thing, the matter in the harbour of St. Helier, I don't know anything, I don't get involved in anything. Your Highness doesn't know me as a person, and I've never met Your Highness. The meaning of Raphael's statement is obvious, although I am involved, I don't want to be involved. Even if he was promoted to a knighthood, under the whirlpool of the two parties, he was a sixth-order powerhouse, and the viscount title was still a little insufficient! Of course, that was for ordinary sixth-order powerhouses. There is also a saying that you don't want to be subservient to others!
He is a quasi-god now, and he wants to be a god in the future. Wouldn't it seem shameless to be subservient to others now? The gods of other people's houses are kings and emperors as believers and subordinates. Becoming a subordinate of these guys in turn always feels inferior!
"Okay." Dybala Ottore was smart enough to hear what Raphael was saying, but he wasn't disappointed. Since Raphael was willing to cooperate with him against Archduke Louis Perchens, it proved that he would not join the camp of Archduke Louis Perchens.
Young people, and at the same time young people with such strength. Arrogance is inevitable, and he doesn't care. Even if Raphael was reluctant to join the royal family, he was still willing to invest in Raphael, which he learned from Ottore XI!
Dybala Ottore always remembered the words of Ottore XI: "After all, the human heart is made of flesh, as long as you have a heart, you can be beaten into a thin piece of iron in hard steel." As long as they are willing to push you when you are in danger, then when you have a thousand hands or even ten thousand hands behind your back, will you still be afraid that you will not be able to get through the crisis in front of you? ”
"Very well, Your Highness. Happy working together, it's a gadget capable of delivering sound over short distances, and Your Highness can give it to your confidants. I will contact His Highness in advance when he needs to make a move. Also, this matter will also involve the Church of the Three Gods, and Your Highness should be able to understand how to use their energy. Raphael took out a small sound-transmitting conch from the storage ring, but it was inferior and inferior to the one used by Raphael and Aisara.
"Yes." Dybala Ottore nodded when he heard this, then took out a waist plate carved from jade from his waist and handed it to himself, with the coat of arms of the royal family of Ottore engraved on it, and a cloak and a dagger on the reverse. "This is a token of the Raven, I will arrange for the leader to go to the port to connect with you, you just need to take out this thing, and the leader will understand."
"Oh, yes. Then give His Highness a small gift, a storage ring. "Is there anything more high-quality than the prince of a country?
"Storage rings? I'm not a mage, Raphael. Dybala Ottore looked at Raphael with a strange expression, not knowing which one Raphael was playing. However, the storage ring in Raphael's hand is finely carved, and the overall atmosphere makes him like it a little.
"This is a storage ring that can also be used by warriors, from the Chamber of Commerce of my friend Konojie Yunfield. Of course, I also have a stake in it. Raphael smiled and placed the storage ring in Dybala Ottore's hand.
Listening to Raphael's words, Dybala Ottore was slightly excited, and the storage ring that fighters can also use! This sentence exploded in the ears of this prince, and a good commander really knows the strategic value of this kind of thing too well! It may not be possible to carry food and grass on a large scale, but if it is a group of reconnaissance troops that infiltrate the rear of the enemy army, this can greatly improve their living conditions and bring back more useful information!
"How much more do you have, I can buy it at my discretion!" Thinking of this, Dybala Ottore couldn't help but feel a little uncontrollable and got up from his chair.
"I can send five more to Your Highness, but there is one condition." As he spoke, Raphael held an extra tray containing five storage rings of identical condition. Looking at these five storage rings, not only Dybala Ottore, but everyone present breathed a little heavier. They also understand the value of the magician's storage ring, Raphael's move is equivalent to giving Dybala Ottore a million gold soles for nothing, which is really not an ordinary atmosphere!
"You say." Dybala Ottore calmed down immediately when he heard Raphael's words, and this ease of release is excellent. He believes that since Raphael has given such a heavy gift, it must be a difficult thing to achieve, and he needs to weigh whether it is worth it.
"It's not a difficult thing for Your Highness, and I hope that the Yunfield Chamber of Commerce can open it within Your Highness's territory. In terms of taxes, we will also pay them normally, please rest assured that Your Highness will be able to do so. "Raphael's request is really shocking, originally they all thought it was a request for knighthood promotion and territorial division, but the final request turned out to be the opening of a chamber of commerce?!
"No problem, and I'll be promoting the Yunfield Chamber of Commerce at the same time." Dybala Ottore nodded, and then stretched out and retracted, and the tray in Raphael's hand and the storage ring in it were already in his hand, and only an afterimage could be seen in the fast movement!
"Happy cooperation, Your Highness."
"Happy working together, Raphael."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the cooperation between them and their needs is always the most reliable.
