68. Invitation letter from the scale
Sean didn't have much to deal with, and those more urgent documents and materials had basically been dealt with as early as Oasis City.
The main reason he came to the Fortress of the Gorge was to learn about the situation of the Abyss Path. But it's a pity that the current situation is very far from what he imagined, which still makes Sean feel a little disappointed, if you have to say a word of comfort, it is that at this moment, you can teleport two people into the underground world at any time.
Sean really wanted to go down and take a look at the situation by himself, but Stalin and the others seemed to know Sean's inner thoughts, and they stayed by Sean's side almost every inch for the past two days. For a lord like Sean, who is completely unreassuring, they wish they could have infinite energy to stare at Sean every day - the current situation is that Sainz and Stalin take turns staring at Sean.
"I said you, it's so unreassuring to be a lord." Elsie sat in her study, laughing at Sean.
In the past few days, Elsie, who has nothing to do, basically comes to the study to find Sean after getting up every day - who let Sean eat and live in the study every day, so Elsie simply moved to the study later. The two friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time seemed to have endless topics, and in addition to the things that Sean couldn't say about Andrew and Gypril, he even told Elsie about the God of War plan of the Northern Duchy Federation.
Elsie, who originally thought that his experience was legendary enough, was also shocked after hearing Sean's words: compared with Sean's direct subversion of the entire God of War Church, Elsie felt that he had inherited his mother's will and obtained the Twilight Spear. Then train the Dark Moon Spear in a low-key quest for survival, and secretly deal with those old rivals that his mother once had. In the end, he succeeded in slapping the Twilight Church in the face through a secret confrontation with the Dark Side Knights of the St. Joels Empire, thus becoming a truly unique person in the entire church. It's just a small thing, not enough to be proud of at all.
"You know, I'm not well suited to be a lord in the first place." Sean sighed helplessly, "If it wasn't for taking care of Cecilia, I wouldn't have chosen to become a lord if I couldn't let her run around with me." …… After all, if I was just the leader of a mercenary group, it would be impossible for me to help her reclaim what belonged to her. ”
"Indeed." Elsie nodded, this time it was rare that there was no mockery. "So what's going on in the Duchy of Rembuel right now?"
"I've also arranged for someone to go there to investigate, and they seem to have known about Cecilia's relationship with me, and now they're clinging to the thighs of the St. Joels Empire." Sean pursed his lips disdainfully, he didn't pay any attention to the Principality of Lumber, with the current strength of the Void Principality, let alone a super powerhouse, as long as the five legendary powerhouses of Levi, Elisa, Rena, Shephaneo, and Nolo were sent over, it was enough to slaughter the entire Principality of Rumbel.
What really kept Sean from making this order was the St. Joels Empire, which now stands behind the Duchy of Rumbell.
The name of the five ancient empires. Even if four super powerhouses were pitted because of the battle of fate, the potential of the St. Joels Empire still can't see the end. Sean didn't plan to act rashly until he was fully prepared, and he didn't know much about the Duchy of Rumber at the moment. What exactly does Cecilia want to do: whether she wants to recover the entire Duchy of Lembert, or whether she wants to solve the murderers of Cecilia's parents.
"If you want to get into trouble with the Duchy of Lumbel, now is the right time." Elsie spoke. "The movements of the Maggie Empire are delicate, and now the St. Joels Empire is in a brief period of weakness. If you use it well, you should be able to reap huge benefits from it. ”
Hear Elsie's words. Sean could only smile helplessly: "You don't know my current situation." ”
"Yes." Elsie was stunned for a moment, and then thought that Sean's current situation was indeed unable to find trouble with the Principality of Lumbel, "Let you poke such a big basket, it's not easy to clean up now." …… Let's not talk about what the fascist kingdom is doing, and it is estimated that there will be no problems in the Barbarian Fortress in the short term, and you have to believe in the group of robbers who are now gathered on the side of the Millennium Covenant Empire. It's the Peace Council and the Death Thorn that are really tricky......"
Hearing Elsie's words, the helplessness on Sean's face had turned into an almost crazy look.
Yesterday Raina had already heard the news of the destruction of Deaththorn's lair in the Southern Continent.
Of course, this news is definitely not good news: Alexis has successfully uprooted all of Deaththorn's strongholds and members in the Southern Continent - all strongholds, not just a lair.
It can be said that Deaththorn's loss this time is even more heavy than when Sean sold the news of the lair on the northern continent to the Peace Council: not only was the lair and stronghold destroyed, but even several real powerhouses in the south of Deaththorn were solved by Alexis.
Probably learned the lesson of the collapse of the lair in the Northern Continent, so at present, in addition to one supreme person in charge of the three lairs in the east, west, and south, Death Thorn has also dispatched new powerhouses to assist. It may be because the situation of the Southern Continent is more worrying, so there are a total of two super powerhouses in the lair of the South Continent, although the strength of these two people is not too top-notch, one is a newly promoted super strong who is only sixteenth-order, and the other is an old super strong man with a strength close to the eighteenth order; In addition, there are a total of four legendary powerhouses, including the Six Death Monuments.
In other words, the forces that Death Thorn sent over to the Southern Continent to sit on this side of the continent were one-fifth of the forces of the entire organization.
And now, all of that power is dead at Alexis' hands.
It took a month for Alexis to destroy the entire southern circle of power of Deaththorn, and it was not that Alexis was lazy, but that the enemy even Alexis found it a little difficult. You can always escape without noticing, and then go into hiding, so the more she fights, the more unhappy Alexis becomes, and she simply destroys all the hidden and public strongholds of Deaththorn in the Southern Continent.
This record can be described as extremely strong on any person.
But when Sean heard the news from Rena, he couldn't be happier.
The reason is simple: Alexis has overdone it.
Deaththorn has set up a total of five nests in the entire Miracle Continent. The first four are located in each of the four directions of the continent, and the location of the fifth is the real core headquarters. It is not known to outsiders, and even the interior of Deaththorn is not clear at all, except for the real core high-level.
And the four nests located in the four corners of the continent. It is the command center in their respective area, and all tasks related to the current area will be scheduled and arranged by this nest. Similarly, the entire network of organizations arranged by Deaththorn is also distributed on the core basis of this nest, providing a place for all Deaththorn members to rest, avoid danger, accept tasks, etc., which is equivalent to a safe house.
The Deaththorn Lair in the Northern Continent was originally sold by Sean to the Peace Council, resulting in extremely heavy losses for Deaththorn. But the loss of Deaththorn, that is, the destruction of this lair, the temporary loss of unity in the dispatch of the entire Northern Continent region, in addition to the bigger problem is the death of the strong and the leakage of some intelligence. But for the network that Deaththorn had spread across the North Continent like a root. And there is nothing to lose.
In other words, all the safe houses have not been destroyed, and the hidden strongholds are still intact - as long as Deaththorn takes some time to reorganize and reorganize, he can still take the Northern Continent under his control again.
But now, the situation is different on the southern continent.
All the hidden strongholds, all destroyed by Alexis, are the kind of real uprooting. This is tantamount to saying that the entire intelligence network that Deaththorn has arranged in the Southern Continent for hundreds of years is now completely a thing of the past - and it is precisely because of Alexis's excessive move. It was only then that the people of the entire Southern Continent clearly saw the horror of the death thorns.
There are more than 500 secret strongholds that have been used as safe houses, distributed in more than a dozen countries in the entire southern continent, and there are even many high-level personnel from various countries: such as the duke of a certain country, the military minister of a certain country, the powerful marquis of a certain country, the prince of a certain country, etc., have all joined the death thorn. It is because of the cover-up of these people. Only then did Deaththorn be able to take root and develop in their country and territory, forming a terrifying force.
After more than a month of successive pursuits, Alexis took Rena with him. The footprints of the two of them have almost walked the entire Southern Continent, and the offended people are not to be said. Facing Alexis, a super powerhouse, and Rena, a legendary powerhouse that can't be described as conventional combat power at all. Even those super-first-class kingdoms that have super strong people as the powerhouses of the town country dare to be angry but dare not speak-of course. The kings of Alexis were of course very happy that they had uncovered the thorns of death hidden in their countries, but they would not thank Sean for this.
To put it simply, they took the benefits, and the bad guy Sean did.
After this incident, Sean can be said to have completely torn his face with Deaththorn - although there were contradictions between the two sides, at least the contradictions between Sean and Deaththorn have not reached the level of immortality, and it can even be said that through the secret agreement of the Forest of Sighs, the relationship between Sean and Deaththorn has eased a little. Although Deaththorn turned his head and pit Sean later, from the standpoint, it is common sense that Deaththorn does not want to see Sean's Void Duchy become an empire, at least in terms of hostile assassination operations, Deaththorn did help Sean block a lot as the agreement.
And Sean, in addition to really wanting to destroy the fascist kingdom and take away the heritage, for the death thorn Sean, he actually just wants to teach the other party a small lesson, so that the other party doesn't think that he is the kind of person who will swallow his anger. Therefore, simply destroying Deaththorn's lair on this side of the Southern Continent, although Deaththorn will suffer heavy losses, at least it will not make the two sides completely tear their faces, and they will be fully aware of Sean's danger.
Results......
Alexis has put Sean's mad dog name firmly in place: once Sean goes crazy, he doesn't care about anything.
However, although Sean felt that it was very tricky, he was at least in a state of being able to deal with it. After all, before the end of the bone invasion incident, Deaththorn could only grit his teeth and stiffen up, and he could not take any revenge on Sean during this period, and with such a buffer time of two or three years, Sean believed that after everything was settled and settled, it would be completely impossible for Deaththorn to carry out any high-level assassination plan.
The real problem at the moment is still on the side of the fascist kingdom.
Maybe it's Alexis who makes Sean's mad dog name completely confirmed. The Peace Council, which had chosen to watch the situation develop out of a sense of reason, suddenly officially intervened in the war between the Void Duchy and the Lane Kingdom and the Fascist Kingdom.
A team of the Peace Assembly, led by five chief arbitrators, has officially departed from the headquarters of the Peace Assembly. The team consisted of thirty members - it may not sound like a lot of people, but if you know that there are only five arbitrators on this team. The remaining members are the escort force, which includes four peacemakers and twenty golden-robed executives, so the gold content of this team is terrifyingly high.
"I really don't want to go to this peace talk." Sean sighed.
"It's impossible not to go." Elsie shook her head, "The Peace Chamber has already sent you an invitation letter, so if you don't participate, the Peace House will definitely officially intervene in this war, and then you will have to face not only the Fascist Kingdom, but also the Peace House that completely stands by the side of the Fascist Kingdom." …… Believe me, you would never want to see a peace parliament fully supporting a country. ”
"If they're rooting for me." Sean pursed his lips. A little angry, "Then I'm still happy to see it." ”
"Unfortunately not." Elsie smiled evilly, "And the invitation letter was actually delivered to you at this time, I estimate that you will even spit out the borders of the fascist kingdoms that have been annexed and return them to them." ”
Just two days after Elsie's arrival at the fortress of the Gorge, news of a complete victory on William's front arrived.
The 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Frontier Legions of the Fascist Kingdom were all wiped out, the 1st Frontier Corps suffered heavy losses, and the 2nd Frontier Corps was besieged on a plateau, and it was not far from being destroyed. Moreover, the entire southern defense line was completely occupied by the combined forces of William and the Kingdom of Lane, if it were not for the fact that there was still the Second Frontier Army in the occupied hinterland. William had already continued to wave his army north and officially launched the invasion.
Now, however, all this military operation has to be suspended.
Not only was it suspended, but also some food and medical supplies were to be sent to the Second Frontier Regiment of the Fascist Kingdom. Make sure they don't die during this time because they can't be rescued.
And all of this stems from the fact that everyone received a letter of invitation from the Peace Council.
It was a request for peace talks from the Celestial Scales Council, composed of the Seven Saints of Peace, the highest decision-making level of the Peace Council—all those who received letters of invitation from the Celestial Scales. All hostilities must cease, otherwise it will be seen as a declaration of war against the Peace Council. Even if Sean is really crazy to the point of being invincible in the world. The level of no one in the eyes can be in a state of hostility that has officially become undead with Deaththorn. If you provoke the Peace Council again, it will really be a brain water.
What's more, in terms of heritage and strength alone, the Peace Council is stronger than a dead thorn. The reason why Deaththorn dared to go against the Peace Council was that the Peace Council couldn't find Deaththorn's base camp, but Sean's situation was different - looking at Christina's direct execution of the assassination plan, it can be seen that the Peace Council is no stranger to assassinating high-level targets and even subverting the regime.
However, Sean knew the true meaning of the letter of invitation to peace talks issued by the Peace Council: the Peace Council no longer wanted to see the situation completely out of their control, especially related to Sean, so they finally decided to personally intervene in the overall situation in the southern continent, just as the fascist kingdom was almost destroyed by the Cyanas Empire, and the Peace Council also intervened in this way, and finally saved the fascist kingdom from falling.
When he thought that the Peace Council always prevented others from destroying the fascist kingdom, Sean always felt that there must be something dirty behind it. Dirty deals.
……
On the site of the old Van Gesburg in the Fascist Kingdom, the army of the Void Duchy is encamped here.
A bewitching-looking fox orc lifted the curtain of a tent and said, "Lord William, someone is looking for you. ”
"Looking for me?" William frowned, "Who is it?" ”
The fox half-orc shook his head: "The other party didn't say it, but he said that he was a messenger to deliver the news." ”
"The Courier?" William's brow furrowed even deeper, and he glanced down at the white envelope that had been opened and then quietly placed on the table, with only a golden scale, "Please let him in." ”
The fox orc nodded, then turned and walked out of the tent, and a moment later another man in an adventurer's cloak walked in. His hood was still on, and his whole body seemed to exude some strange force field fluctuations, and all the eyes looking at him seemed to have fallen into darkness, and they couldn't really see his situation at all, and they couldn't even distinguish their gender.
"Who are you?" William asked in a deep voice.
"It doesn't matter who I am." The mysterious visitor spoke, his voice high and low, apparently distorting his original voice through some kind of force field, "The important thing is the proposal I brought to Mr. William this time. …… I can assure you that this is definitely the best proposition. ”
"Oh?" William raised an eyebrow, "Tell me about it." ”
In the invisible distorted force field, the corners of the mysterious visitor's mouth seemed to lift slightly, revealing a smile, and then slowly speaking.
……
At about the same time, Hela and Harding, and the leaders of the Savage tribes in Oasis City, Neil and Diana in Void City, and Clov and Shephaño in Savage Fortress all welcomed such a mysterious visitor wearing an adventurer's hood cloak and a strange force field twisting around them, making it impossible to distinguish between men and women. They and Hela, Harding, Neil, Diana, Clof, Shephaneo, and the leaders of many of the Savage tribes all made a proposal.
And no third person, except for themselves, knows what the proposals made by these people are.
Because when they entered the room, the powerful force field cut off everything, even if it was just a person outside the door, they couldn't hear all the conversational sounds in the room, and even the movement became eerily silent, as if the entire space was frozen and sluggish.
Perhaps their proposal was so simple, so simple that it took little thought to get an answer.
So the meeting between these people and everyone was very short, the longest was no more than five minutes, and then the people opened the door and left. No one knew what the faces of these mysterious visitors were when they came and when they left because of the strange force distorted, but those guarding the door could see what their immediate boss was looking like.
There is an angry face, an indifferent smile, and a closed eye in contemplation.
Of course......
There is also a face full of excitement and joy. (To be continued.) )
