Chapter 228: Refusing to be a King
On the mottled city wall, Zeng Jun leaned against the battlements with the Ice Spirit Cold Light Sword in his arms, quietly looking at the cheering players up and down the city wall, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
The Japanese led by Eiji Tanigawa failed to succeed in their counteroffensive before the end of the war, and now the city of cherry blossoms has become a subsidiary city of the Kingdom of Crane and the third largest main city in China.
"You're pretty calm, we've made history in the Yellow Game, aren't you excited about that?" Bing Lan walked up to Zeng Jun with a charming smile on his face and asked.
Zeng Jun sighed softly: "Who said I wasn't excited, I didn't have the strength to cheer, I only went offline to rest once in seventy-two hours, and it lasted less than ten hours, and the rest of the time was a series of fierce battles, and I was already exhausted." ”
"I don't think you're like it, that's the real exhaustion." Bing Lan smiled and pointed to the wound that fell on the corner of the city wall, which was very beautiful, and said.
Zeng Jun looked in the direction of the ice blue finger, and sure enough, the injury was very beautiful, and he sat directly on the bloodstained city wall, panting heavily with his back against the battlement.
Seeing Zeng Jun and Bing Lan looking over, the injury was very beautiful and smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "It's not that I'm tired, it's that I've been beaten miserably." ”
"Huh? Ha ha! Zeng Jun and Bing Lan couldn't help laughing.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the injury is very beautiful, during the National War, the time of this product online is not less than that of Zeng Jun, and basically every moment is directly on the front line. He is a ground force, and many times he directly plays the role of a pioneer officer, and the chance of being a person A is very high.
The system constantly reminds players that the Sakura Castle map is about to be maintained, so that all players leave immediately to avoid unnecessary losses.
"Let's go." Zeng Jun said to Bing Lan.
Bing Lan nodded, took out the scroll of returning to the city and crushed it, and Zeng Jun also crushed the teleportation scroll in his hand.
As soon as the two appeared in the East Gate Square of Babel City, there was thunderous applause, and a large number of players from Babel City spontaneously gathered here to give Zeng Jun and Bing Lan heroic courtesy.
The two people who contributed the most in this national war were undoubtedly Zeng Jun and Binglan, who directed the drama of the gods falling from the sky twice in a row, killing the Indians and the Japanese by surprise, and basically laying the direction of the entire national war.
After the last time he abandoned Qinggu Castle, Zeng Jun has become the king's scepter that symbolizes the power of the cherry blossom city, and now he has almost become a household name in China.
In addition to the successful victory of the cherry blossom city in China, with the help of Chinese players, the Russians successfully turned the French Phantom City into a subsidiary city of Firebird City, becoming the third largest main city in Russia.
Helping Firebird City successfully take the Phantom City, this is also carefully considered in advance, although the Cherry Blossom City has been taken, but due to the unique geographical location of the Cherry Blossom City, it will be attacked by the two main cities in the future due to the location, and it will be very difficult to defend.
Repair the relationship with the Erslos people and let them successfully take the Phantom City, so that they can sandwich the Indian Giant Deer City with the Cherry Blossom City, and if the Indians want to stand out for the Japanese in the future, they have to weigh their own ability, don't Cherry Blossom City can't be defeated, and the Giant Deer City will be divided by others.
The biggest loss in this national war is the Japanese server, not only lost the main city of Sakura City, but also ceded the hot spring city to South Korea under the mediation of the Yankees, plus Qinggu Castle, which was abandoned by Zeng Jun during the last national war, the territory of the entire Japanese server instantly shrunk by more than half.
Today, nearly 20 million Japanese players can only develop in three second-tier main cities, and the situation can be described as quite miserable. Zeng Jun felt very happy when he thought of the painful expression on his face at the last moment after the end of the Battle of Eiji Tanigawa.
It is said that as soon as the war ended, Eiji Tanigawa immediately protested to the Americans and wanted to take back the hot spring town, and now under the auspices of the Americans, the representatives of gamers in Japan and South Korea are negotiating, but the chances of negotiating should be slim.
In the gaming world, Koreans are also ambitious wolves, and they will still spit out the fat that has already eaten in their mouths?
"Ding~!"
System Prompt: King Fabia XII seems to have something to look for you, so you might as well go over and ask for it yourself.
Zeng Jun then remembered that the king's scepter of the Cherry Blossom City was still on his body, which was the symbol of the royal power of the Cherry Blossom City, and if he didn't call the scepter out, the Kingdom of Crane would not be able to assign a new monarch to the Cherry Blossom City, and it would be strange if Fabia XII didn't look for him.
"You guys are busy first, I'll go to the palace and hand over the king's scepter." Zeng Jun whispered to Bing Lan.
"I'll go with you."
"What are you going to do, what if the NPC takes a fancy to your beauty and wants to canonize you as a princess?" Zeng Jun asked with a glare.
"That's not right, it's better to enjoy endless glory and wealth in the second half of your life than no one wants it now." Bing Lan said invincibly.
Zeng Jun: "......"
He knew what Bing Lan was thinking, it was best to remain silent about this issue, the more he spoke, the easier it was to have problems, and it was better to leave it to time to solve this kind of matter that could not be decided for the time being.
Zeng Jun summoned the Pegasus to turn over and get on the horse, and Ice Blue unceremoniously followed and flipped onto the Pegasus's horseback. The leader of the beauty alliance cheated in public, and Zeng Jun didn't dare to drive her down, so he had to accept Binglan's request to ride together.
Leaving behind a colorful light, Pegasus quickly disappeared from everyone's field of vision, and quickly flew in the direction of the palace.
After approaching the palace, a golden royal griffin quickly took off from the city and quickly chased after Zeng Jun, and on the back of the griffin sat a beautiful knight in silver armor, and the beautiful knight's long golden hair fluttered in the wind, and the royal griffin's sun-like feathers complemented each other.
"It's you!" Catherine, the leader of the Griffin Knights, quickly recognized Zeng Jun on horseback.
Zeng Jun smiled and nodded.
Catherine glanced at Zeng Jun and said angrily: "I didn't say it in advance, so I thought I was here to make trouble." ”
Zeng Jun: "I thought you would recognize it as mine as soon as you saw Pegasus." ”
Catherine: "I'm sorry, I haven't paid that much attention to you. ”
Zeng Jun: "......"
After confirming that she was not here to cause trouble, Catherine immediately turned around and landed back in the Griffin Knights' camp, while Zeng Jun directly commanded Pegasus to land in front of the palace council hall.
"Hee-hee, have you embarrassed in front of NPCs, will you still be amorous in the future?" Bing Lan teased Zeng Jun.
Zeng Jun: "......"
"Your Excellency." When the captain of the palace guard saw Zeng Jun, he put his right hand into a fist on his chest and thought that Zeng Jun made a big salute.
The title of the captain of the palace guard is higher than Zeng Jun, if in the past, at most he only nodded slightly to Zeng Jun to show politeness, if there was no person with a more noble status to lead him, he would not be allowed to enter, but today his attitude has changed 180 degrees.
It seems that it must be because of the relationship of the king's scepter on his body, Zeng Jun thought to himself.
Entering the council hall, King Fabia XII and the Ten Elders were seated in their seats, as if they had just finished discussing something.
"Dear Viscount of Migrant Workers, it's a pleasure to see you again." Seeing Zeng Jun enter, Fabia XII immediately stood up from his throne and descended to greet him.
The emperor Lao'er treated him so kindly, which flattered Zeng Jun, who thought he had seen the world.
Erathia and several other Great Elders who usually had a good relationship with Zeng Jun congratulated Zeng Jun one after another, as for what to congratulate, Zeng Jun couldn't understand it now, and the other Great Elders who didn't deal with Duke Erathia and the others let out a few cold snorts from their noses.
Zeng Jun immediately took out the King Scepter of the Cherry Blossom City from the package and handed it to Fabia XII very casually, saying: "Your Majesty the King, this is the King Scepter of the Cherry Blossom City, please take it, and at the same time I implore Your Majesty and the elders to elect a new king in charge of the Cherry Blossom City, I thank you for the people of the Cherry Blossom City first." ”
Zeng Jun said neither humbly nor arrogantly, and Fabia XII and Erathia and several others nodded secretly.
I saw that Fabia XII did not reach out to pick up the king's scepter in Zeng Jun's hand, but gently pushed him back, and said to Zeng Jun with a smile: "According to the law of the Klan Kingdom, any hero who opens up territory for the empire has the right to enjoy the fruits of his victory, so we have jointly decided to canonize you as the new king of the Sakura Kingdom, so this king's scepter now belongs to you." ”
"Ding~!"
System prompt: Do you accept the canonization of Fabia XII as the new king of the cherry blossom city? If you don't accept it, you can get other compensation rewards.
Zeng Jun chose to refuse without hesitation, the Dawn Guild did not plan to go to the Cherry Blossom City to develop, and this was the result of the joint efforts of the players of the All-Heaven City, he was just one of the representatives, and if he became the king, it would easily cause dissatisfaction among other guilds.
Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, such a high-profile position as the city lord of the main city is not the result Zeng Jun wants, it is the right way to make a fortune in a muffled voice, so he must refuse, not to mention that there can be other additional rewards after refusal, not to mention.
"Are you sure?" Fabia XII looked surprised.
"Migrant workers, don't you really have to think about it anymore?" Duke Erathia also had an expression of disbelief on his face.
Zeng nodded, "I've already decided, it's not appropriate for me to be an adventurer to be the monarch of an empire, I think the Duke of Erathia is more suitable than me." ”
Of course, if you don't want to be the king, you have to recommend your old acquaintances, no matter whether it can be done in the end, anyway, this love NPC owes itself a debt.
Several great elders talked about it, but in the end, there were more people who supported Zeng Jun's proposal, so Fabia XII took the king's scepter from Zeng Jun's hand and turned around and solemnly handed it to the Duke of Erathia, and the new king of Cherry Blossom City was born.
"Since you don't want to let a throne restrict your freedom, then we can't force you, I have prepared some special rewards for you here, which can be regarded as a tribute to the hero for the people." Fabia XII turned to Zeng Jun and said.
