Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
No one mentioned Engel's name again at the banquet in the evening, and Engel disappeared from sight, but with the help of this turmoil, the prestige of the Holy See of Light reached an incomparable height.
The Holy See of Light then sent invitations to the major empires and major forces to watch the miracles, and a large-scale fundraising event was launched within the empire, and the first 1,000 people who collected money would be baptized by miracles.
What is a miracle, a miracle is like a group of county officials intriguing at a meeting, and suddenly a call from the secretary of the municipal party committee, and then someone who answered the phone immediately shouted loudly: "What does the secretary say and what does the so-and-so secretary say." "It's a miracle.
As mentioned earlier, the major Holy See of the human race is the basic organization of the various gods below, and they fight very fiercely with each other, but it is too difficult for the divine realm to support a certain low-level plane, and the loss is not as great as the gain, so every time these gods have to appear, it is called a miracle.
"I tell you, the holy city will be full of people by then, and you don't know that my grandfather had a miracle two hundred years ago, and my grandfather never got sick at all, and lived for more than one hundred and thirty years. A middle-aged man said excitedly.
Some people also echoed excitedly: "That is, look at the streets now, there is not a single bad person, it is said that the bad person will be taken away directly by the time come." ”
Cook looked at West Asia suspiciously, because the Holy See of Light was preparing for a miracle, so West Asia, Connie, Mickey, Manley and others came, and the high-level leaders of the Wizards' Guild all came, and the alliance of the Orc Empire also temporarily stopped attacking the Scarlet Fortress.
It can be said that the entire continent was attracted by the big move of the Holy See of Light, and people on the whole continent were talking about one thing, that is, miracles, and the Holy See of Light had angels in charge, which also made some people on the continent a little excited.
Because the blood of the angels on the angels is a priceless treasure, a priceless treasure to increase lifespan, so the Holy See is also like a great enemy, and the temple guards are fully armed, after all, there are many fat guys.
Especially for some old guys who are about to end their lives, Anna's survival is even more of a fatal temptation, and those who think they have a little affection will make a deal with the Holy See of Light, and they can only take risks if they have nothing to do with it.
In the Killer Guild and the Assassin Guild, the price of a drop of angel blood has risen to 50 million gold coins, although the Holy See of Light has protested, but the Killer Guild and the Assassin Guild are both worldwide organizations, and they are not afraid of the Holy See at all.
Hearing these people's discussions, Sia couldn't help but explain in a whisper as she looked at Cook's puzzled look: " The miracle is that the people of the divine realm use some kind of space artifact to directly break the spatial barrier, and then appear in our plane, and such an artifact needs to consume a lot of elemental energy, and when the space is broken, a part of the energy will be dissipated, and the physique of the person near the spatial coordinate point will be transformed, of course, those who can't bear it will die directly, and the elements of the divine realm are dozens of times richer than ours, once the space channel is opened, the elemental energy of the divine realm will rush over, and the vast majority of cultivators in the bottleneck period will be rushed by this elemental energy, and they will naturally advance, so there are so many talents here。 ”
"And so good, but you say that angel blood is so expensive, should we capture that old fellow of Anna and bleed?" Cook finally understood, and asked with a smile.
Sia glared at Cook angrily and said: "According to what you said, Anna is not a real angel, so the blood of the angel is not pure, and the angel only has the effect of prolonging life with the essence blood in the chest, unless it is a high angel, and you think that a drop is a drop of water, and a drop of angel blood is at least dozens of times that of a drop of water." ”
"Forget it, I guess Anna has had enough, Manley, send a message to Lara that I, Cook, am willing to buy a drop of angel blood for 200 million gold coins. Cook commanded with a wicked smile.
Manly gave Cook a blank look, it was obvious that Cook was adding to the chaos and adding fuel to the fire, but Manly did it anyway, and after half a day, the price of Angel's Blood for 200 million gold coins appeared on the list of the Assassins' Guild, ranking third.
"Damn it, damn it!" Anna heard that a drop of her blood was worth 200 million gold coins, and she angrily smashed everything in the house, which was basically her own life.
200 million gold coins, the largest empire in the entire continent has not had so much financial revenue in a year, and here it is talking about the financial revenue and then the rest of the expenditure, not the whole.
Think about the outlaws who dare to kill people for a few gold coins, and the adventurers and mercenaries who want thousands of gold coins, what is the concept of 200 million gold coins?
In fact, the price offered by Cook is excellent, if it is too low, no one dares to risk it, if it is too high, people are still worried about being hacked, so 200 million gold coins is definitely in line with the hearts of most gamblers.
It's just that Cook didn't know that he really wanted Anna's life on a whim, which shocked Cook later and brought some trouble.
After waiting for two days, Cook was invited by the Pope to the Papal Palace, which was actually a large palace, where nine cardinal archbishops, seven Privy Council archbishops, and fifteen white-robed priests, as well as the chief of the guard, met with Cook.
"Baron Cook, on behalf of the Holy See, I accept your agreement. The Pope spoke to Cook, who was sitting across from him.
"Hehe!" Cook didn't feel the slightest pressure, and nodded with a smile.
But the next sentence made Cook feel the urge to scold his mother, and that was when the Pope continued: "But the contract will not be signed until the Day of the Miracle." ”
"Isn't there another month left on Miracle Day?" asked Cook, stunned.
"No, twenty-seven days to go, Baron Cook. A white-robed priest replied correctively.
Cook rolled his eyes and continued, "What is this for?"
Looking at Cook's somewhat anxious look, the Pope showed a hint of a smile, because after the discussion of the Holy See's high-level leaders, Cook must have some information that the Holy See does not know, so he intends to take advantage of the Holy See's knowledge to get some benefits.
In fact, it is no wonder that the upper echelons of the Holy See, but Cook's experience is too dazzling, and it is unimaginable that a chicken-ribbed territory can be built into a commercial center on the continent second only to Magic City in just over two years.
According to the preliminary calculations of the Holy See, the amount of trade in Cook's barony for half a year is at least more than three billion gold coins, of course, what the Holy See does not know is that Cook exchanged these three billion gold coins for an empire, the Mekay Empire.
In fact, Cook doesn't have much money to spare, Cook's income is only magic metal ore, magic potions, and magic herbs traded with wurm and then sold to the Wizards' Guild, as well as the difference in the price of weapons sold through the relationship of the guò dwarf kingdom, magic airship, the left hand into the money, the right hand out the money, in the current situation, the Mekay Empire must want Cook to continue to support, only when the Mekay Empire really stands up, and then through the Guò Golden Pass to open trade with humans, that is the time for Cook to let go.
"Since you don't want to, then Cook takes his leave. Seeing the smiling faces of the high-level members of the Holy See, Cook said with a gloomy face, after all, what Cook wanted was to implement the plan, but the miracles of the Holy See disrupted Cook's layout.
Because the miracle had just spread, the orc empire coalition army directly retreated thirty kilometers, what does this mean, that is, the orc coalition was afraid of the miracle of the Holy See, and Cook originally wanted to use the human alliance of the Scarlet Fortress to drag the orc empire army, and then occupy it in the rear of the orc empire, and when necessary, give the orc coalition a fatal blow, this qiē was planned by Cook, but now the miracle news of the Holy See directly made the orc coalition retreat, and Cook's plan died in this link.
Once the alliance of millions of orcs returns to the orc empire, then the Mekay empire will be engaged in a difficult and remarkable war, perhaps lasting hundreds of years, so signing the contract now is not good news for Cook, but Cook is not good to say it himself, but the Holy See has given Cook an excuse, an excuse to quit.
After Cook finished speaking, he left without looking back, leaving behind a group of high-ranking members of the Holy See who looked at each other, and a cardinal archbishop asked suspiciously: "This, this Baron Cook should not really be gone, right?"
The top brass of the Holy See vaguely felt that something was wrong, and if Cook really stopped doing it, then wouldn't the ideas that these people were proud of be slapping themselves.
After Cook returned to the hotel, he didn't stop long, but got on the magic airship, and the group that followed Cook also followed Cook, and Cook checked the map of the Orc Empire on the airship.
After a day and a night, Cook finally got a little on the map, and then asked Sia: "Sia, is there any way to build a thirty-kilometer-long wall in a short time, which needs to be at least fifty meters high?" ”
"How long is the shortest?" Sia asked.
Cook estimated that the reason why the orc coalition did not retreat may be to see if the miracle of the Holy See is true, then there are still twenty-six days, and it will take a month from the orc coalition to the place on the map, that is to say, there are still two months, except for some time, the shortest is only a month.
"A month!" replied Cook with a slight estimate in his mind.
"What strength is needed?" asked Manly, as she spoke.
"Blood Fortress like that. Cook opened his mouth and said.
"Impossible!" replied Sia and Manly at the same time.
Manly and Sia looked at each other, and Sia explained, "The Scarlet Fortress has been continuously strengthened from the beginning to the present, and the stones are all lapis lazuli, transported from the Natal Mountains, which can be said to be made of the same weight of silver, and the cost is sky-high. ”
"Okay, I want to build a defense line here, and then block the beast army, as long as this sixty kilometers of territory is defended, if the large army of the beast army wants to return to the empire, it must go around more than 20,000 kilometers, we have gained time, and on the way around, we can also harass and delay the speed of the beast army's march. Cook gestured to the map.
Xia looked at the map and shook his head and said: "Cook, you think too simply, you treat orcs as human beings, these mountains are not difficult for orcs at all, not to mention millions of beast armies, even high-level demonic beasts have to take a detour." ”
After being reminded by Sia, Cook suddenly realized that orcs are different from humans, and in the eyes of humans, they are primeval forests in the moats, but in the eyes of orcs, it is not a difficult thing.
"Cook, what do you want to do?" asked Mickey, plucking up the courage to ask, in Mickey's opinion, what Cook did as a human in the Orc Empire was something useless.
Cook looked at Mickey, Ume, Manly, and Sia, then turned his head through the crystal window of the magic airship and said, "Mickey, do you think it's unnecessary for me to do this?"
The women nodded, and Cook replied with a wry smile: "Actually, at first, I just wanted some miners who would mine magic metal mines for free, but who would have thought that a rabbit tribe was near the magic metal mine, when I saw the current situation of the rabbits, I decided that I wanted to help them, and then I couldn't help it, resisting the werewolves and occupying the werewolf territory, but in the werewolf territory, I also saw that the werewolf civilians were not better than the rabbits, do you want me to give up now?"
"If I give up now, with the ogre, the Troll Knights, and the Magic Metal Mine, there is not the slightest security problem, but without my support, what will be the result of hundreds of millions of rabbit people, as well as werewolves, as well as some minotaurs, bear people, and Dougs? Yes, their weapons are excellent, but without my support, how long can they hold out under the attack of the entire orc empire coalition, and what will be the outcome of their fate at that time?" Cook said that he was almost questioning, because Cook could imagine what the outcome would be for the commoners who were suppressed by the aristocracy.
"I just want them to have a better life. Cook knew in his heart that there was no point in doing so.
But not everything needs to be meaningful, just like eating, eating and pulling out, it's better not to eat, people have to die anyway, why not die early It's the same, doing things is sometimes just a process.
Mickey and the others thought thoughtfully, but as soon as Mickey said this, Cook had a new idea and muttered to himself: "Since this is the case, then the high-ranking people of the Orc Empire, are you ready to fall into the vast sea of people's war?"
Then Cook made a series of deployments, and the Mekay Empire sent tens of thousands of backbone personnel of the Mutual Aid Society to reach all parts of the Orc Empire, and a silent tide of lang was slowly accumulating.
"What? really left?" the Pope of the Empire of Light was dumbfounded, because according to the request, Cook had already left.
"Yes!" replied the debriefer, bowing down.
"How so?" muttered the Pope in disbelief.
Mo Luo was also at a loss, Cook actually left without discussing it, and the epoch-making contract for the Bright Empire was abandoned like this? Mo Luo didn't dare to imagine what the people would be like if they knew the truth of the matter.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Baron Cook has increased the price of magic metal by five times, and the price of magic airships by ten times, and the tens of thousands of ogre knights of the Scarlet Fortress have also retreated, and the price of weapons has also increased tenfold. At this moment, a white-robed priest ran in in a panic and shouted loudly.
Cook didn't want to raise the price, but the threat of the orc alliance had to make Cook prepare with all his might, and if Cook said that he wouldn't sell these strategic materials, he would definitely be despised by all mankind, so he had to use the idea of raising prices.
Cook is now a guest in the dwarven kingdom, and the first words of Cook when he met him made the dwarven king tremble: "Dear King Xià, I need 500,000 repeating crossbows, and one crossbow needs two hundred metal crossbow arrows, one million sets of chain mail, and one hundred thousand sets of plate armor ......." ”
