Chapter 523 His Highness Jellal’s Excitement
inside the tent,
Jellal looked at the panting messenger in front of him and raised his eyebrows involuntarily.
After rubbing his temples, Jellal took the sealed small box from the hand of the messenger. After checking that it was correct, he opened the box and took out the sheepskin scroll inside.
"What happened in Cuifeng City recently?"
In recent days, Jellal has been immersed in the battle with the Kingdom of Archibald and the Paro Federation. It was not until today that the confrontation between the two sides came to an end.
The troops of the Kingdom of Gordon were given a short period of time to recuperate and adjust, and the coalition forces of the Kingdom of Archibald and the Paro Federation also retreated to lick their wounds.
Both parties knew that the peace at this time was only temporary.
Sooner or later, there will be a more intense confrontation between the two sides.
What worries Jellal the most is that if this continues, the Gordon Kingdom will really be unable to sustain itself.
He received a tip two days ago that the troops of the Western Kingdom of Kyle clashed with the patrolling soldiers of the Kingdom of Gordon on the border between the two countries.
This shows that the Kingdom of Kyle has begun to launch trials. If the Kingdom of Kyle also joins the camp besieging the Kingdom of Gordon, it will be really dangerous at that time.
At that time, the Kingdom of Gordon will either give up the territory it has annexed in many previous wars and shrink its strength to do domestic defense.
Either use all your strength to defeat one of the armies, but this extreme approach is likely to lead to a complete collapse of the situation, and the destruction of the country is not impossible.
There was also some concern in the royal capital, and His Majesty the King even sent someone to ask Jellal for his opinion.
Jellal also had a headache about this.
The current Gordon Kingdom is like a big ship with leaks everywhere, and Prince Jellal and the others are sailors who are repairing the holes everywhere.
Everyone knows that as long as it survives, this big ship will be able to take on a new lease of life, and even everyone on the ship will be able to reach a safe shore. But no one knows whether this big ship can survive this difficult time. The harm caused by panic is even greater than the threat of water leakage.
Now, Jellal had a headache when he saw the newly sent information.
Who knows what went wrong again?
"There should be nothing else going on in Cuifeng City except for the news that there were followers of the evil **** appearing before."
"Even if Archibald Kingdom and Paro Federation slip through the net, they can''t pose any threat to Cuifeng City, right?"
Aqil, who was sitting aside, saw this and said with relief.
He has been staying by Jellal''s side to help with various matters. As for the Angus Legion Commander, he is still reorganizing the soldiers who have experienced battles before.
"I hope so!"
Jellal shook his head and sighed, then spread out the parchment in his hand.
"I really hope that the evil **** believer has been dealt with. I really don''t have any extra power to send to Cuifeng City."
Jellal frowned slightly as he looked at the information in his hand.
Seeing this, Aqil thought it was another bad news. He sighed and leaned back slightly in his chair.
After a moment of silence, Jellal sent the parchment in his hand to Aqil and said with a strange expression:
"Aqil, take a look too."
Aqil was a little surprised as to what news made His Highness the Prince have such an attitude.
He took the parchment, glanced at the contents recorded on it, and his eyes widened slightly.
"Your Highness, what is this?"
Aqil looked up at Jellal and said with some disbelief.
The evil **** believers in Cuifeng City have been dealt with, which is quite good news.
After all, for the Gordon Kingdom''s army located in the Eli Hills, Cuifeng City is their most direct rear base camp. If there is a problem there, it will be really troublesome.
Although it was good news to deal with the evil **** believer, it did not surprise Jellal and Aqil.
What''s more important is to deal with the followers of this evil god.
Elf Sage Lis Cain!
Jellal had heard of this name before. After all, he was the first human being awarded the honor of Elf Sage by the Elf Kingdom.
You know, given the hostile attitude of the Elf Kingdom towards humans, the fact that Li Si could become an Elf Sage undoubtedly surprised many people.
Jellal was quite interested after learning about this matter.
He is still quite interested in Lis Kane, but the Elf Kingdom is still a bit far away from the Gordon Kingdom. Except for those merchants who travel long distances, it has almost no direct impact on the Gordon Kingdom.
So after having a general understanding, Jellal didn''t pay too much attention to this matter.
Unexpectedly, this elf sage, your Excellency, would come to Cuifeng City in the Gordon Kingdom and help eliminate the evil **** believer.
Although this information was obtained from the Church of the Suffering God, Jellal did not doubt the authenticity of this information.
Regarding the clergy of the Church of the Suffering God, Jellal still respects them from the bottom of his heart.
What''s more, what''s the benefit of lying about this kind of thing?
After checking the parchment in front of him repeatedly, Aqil placed it on the table in front of him.
"I''m not surprised that the Elf Sage appeared in Cuifeng City to solve the problem of the followers of the evil **** this time, but according to the information, this person formed a mercenary group and received the mission we issued from the mercenary guild. ?”
"That''s true."
Jellal nodded, this was what was strange about him.
Although it is rare for a passing strongman to kill some followers of the evil god, it is not impossible.
But this was the first time Jellal had seen someone like Elf Sage Li Si.
After all, he also knew about Li Si''s formation of [Wrath of Nature] and the cooperation with the Church of the Gods. With Li Si''s current status, although it may not be as good as a legendary crown prince, it is almost the same.
This man suddenly appeared in Cuifeng City and personally established a mercenary group.
What does this guy want to do?
Jellal was a little confused, then shook his head and said to Aqil:
"I don''t care about this, as long as the matter of the evil **** believers is resolved."
"If he really uses the life sacrifice ritual to break through and become a legend, he will really be in big trouble."
"Moreover, this Elf Sage doesn''t seem to be hostile, otherwise he wouldn''t have appeared in Cuifeng City with such fanfare."
"What do you mean?"
Achill felt that Jellal''s tone was a little strange and couldn''t help but asked curiously.
"Aqil, do you still remember the previous information related to this elf sage?"
"Um"
Hearing this, Aqil began to think quickly.
As a civil minister, his memory is quite good.
He quickly remembered the original information about this elf sage.
"Your Highness, are you referring to the information that this Elf Sage comes from the Kingdom of Fes?"
"Yes, that''s it!"
Jellal stood up suddenly and walked back and forth in the tent excitedly, his mind running rapidly.
"This elf sage should have been Duke Kane of the Kingdom of Fes."
"I heard that he was an ordinary court viscount a few years ago. After becoming a disciple of [Flame of Judgment], he became famous instantly. Even the most important area of ??the Berdych Kingdom became his territory."
"Although the Kingdom of Fes did not take any particularly obvious actions after he became the Elf Sage, it is obvious that he still maintains a good relationship with the Kingdom of Fes."
"At this time, he suddenly appeared in Cuifeng City to form a mercenary guild, and even took the initiative to accept the tasks we issued."
Jellal seemed to be talking to himself, trying to clarify his thoughts in this way. "He didn''t go to Archibald Kingdom and Paro Federation. Is this person taking the initiative to express something to us?"
"Are you saying that Li Si appeared in Cuifeng City not because of his identity as an Elf Sage, but because he came to Cuifeng City as the Duke of the Kingdom of Fes?"
"Want to cooperate with us?"
Aqil also realized Jellal''s thoughts, but soon he asked with some confusion:
"If that''s the case, why didn''t he come directly here instead of going to Cuifeng City?"
"There are many explanations."
Jellal patted the table and said with a smile:
"Maybe you want us to take the initiative to find him and gain a greater advantage in negotiations?"
"Or, as the intelligence said, he also discovered the special characteristics of those [immortal] and wanted to try to recruit them?"
"Or maybe it''s all just a whim of that person, with no other meaning at all. It''s all just our overthinking."
Jellal said excitedly:
"But that doesn''t matter!"
"No matter what the situation is, it cannot change the fact that this person appears in Cuifeng City."
"Even if this person doesn''t have any ideas in this regard, I can take the initiative to find him."
"After all, Duke Kane has considerable influence in the Kingdom of Fes!"
You know, the current predicament of the Gordon Kingdom has made Gerald, the heir to the kingdom, full of worry and trouble for a long time.
Not to mention asking to see a noble elf sage, even an ordinary person or a beggar, as long as the other person can help the Gordon Kingdom get out of the predicament in front of it, Jellal can do anything.
Compared with the entire Gordon Kingdom, dignity and honor are not important to him at all.
In this case, for the Kingdom of Gordon, the identity of Duke Liscayne is really more worthy of attention than the identity of the Elf Sage.
The Kingdom of Fes can really interfere in the war between the Kingdom of Gordon, the Kingdom of Archibald and the Paro Federation. Although the elves are powerful, their interference in the war between the human kingdoms is absolutely not allowed by the Church of the Gods. matter.
Aqil also became energetic and nodded repeatedly.
Before this, it was not that they had never thought of asking the Kingdom of Fes for help.
It has been reported before that the Paro Federation has received support from the Kingdom of Fes and is preparing to attack the Kingdom of Gordon.
However, after a period of tension in the Gordon Kingdom, they discovered that the Kingdom of Fes had not made any special moves, as if they were calmly digesting the legacy of the Kingdom of Berdych.
I don’t know what the old king of the Kingdom of Fes was thinking. He neither assisted the Paro Federation nor turned a blind eye to the overtures of the Kingdom of Gordon.
But Li Si''s appearance here made Jellal feel another kind of hope.
"Let''s go!"
"Aqil, come with me to Cuifeng City to meet this Elf Sage."
"The matters in the military camp will be left to Angus to take full responsibility for now."
Jellal thought for a moment and said decisively.
"OK."
Aqil did not hesitate and nodded in agreement.
At the same time, Cuifeng City,
Li Si stood up to greet him, looked at the somewhat tired Bevis Millar, and said with a smile:
"Sir Bevis, I really didn''t expect His Majesty to ask you to come here."
"Isn''t it that His Majesty attaches great importance to the proposal of your lord, the Duke?"
Beavis, dressed in casual clothes, sat down and drank the crimson wine in the glass in one gulp.
The leader of the Golden Lion Knights of the Kingdom of Fes looked at Li Si in front of him and couldn''t help feeling a little emotional.
Although there is almost no difference between him and a few years ago, this handsome young man has not changed at all, but it gives Beavis a feeling of change.
When Mingming met Li Si for the first time, he was still a small bronze-level mage. It was because of Tai Ya that he paid more attention to him.
Unexpectedly, within a few days, this young man would become the only disciple accepted by His Majesty [Flame of Judgment] for many years.
Looking at this guy''s strength, he seemed to be on a rocket, breaking through and becoming a gold-level powerhouse in just one year. He even killed the long-famous Archmage of Berdych in the war with the Kingdom of Berdych.
He originally thought that the most talented people could be like Li Si.
As a result, after disappearing for a period of time, he received information that a new human being who became an elf sage appeared in the Elf Kingdom. His name was also Lis Kane.
At first he thought it was a coincidence, but after learning about the incident from His Majesty the King, Beavis felt his whole body numb.
Can''t?
Although I know this kid is not an ordinary person, is this too outrageous?
At the first sight of Li Si again, some thoughts in Beavis'' mind completely disappeared.
Um.
This feeling.
Have I lived all these years in vain?
"Are you the only one here?"
Li Si said with a smile, pouring wine into the wine glass in front of Beavis.
He still respects Bevis. After all, Bevis was quite friendly to him and helped Li Si a lot when he was in Bright Light City and Berdych Kingdom.
The old king asked him to come. On the one hand, the Golden Lion Knights he led, as the most elite army in the Kingdom of Fes, had enough strength to change the situation of a battle. On the other hand, it might be because he had a good relationship with Li Si.
"Of course not."
Beavis shook his head, took out a map and laid it on the table, pointed at one of the places and said:
"Now the entire Golden Lion Knights are staying here and will not be discovered by others in a short period of time."
"His Majesty the King asked me to bring a strategic teleportation magic circle. Use it when necessary, and the army will be teleported here soon."
"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty!"
Li Si nodded slightly, feeling relieved.
Tsk!
What a sacrifice!
Li Si knew what this strategic teleportation magic circle was, and he recorded it in the experience left to him by Teacher Stephens.
Legendary props that can teleport an entire army to a location thousands of miles away in a very short time.
Props of this level are considered to be the best treasures in a kingdom. It is estimated that only [Flame of Judgment] in the human kingdom on the entire continent of Fanor has the ability to make such props.
Because the production materials are precious, the quantity will definitely not be large.
At least Li Si didn''t see any similar treasure trove in the palace treasury at that time.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty the King asked Beavis to bring one now.
So neat?
Is it a dowry?
Li Si touched his chin, His Majesty the King is really willing to spend money!
But it did make Li Si feel the importance from the Kingdom of Fes.
By the way, there hasn''t been much news about Taiya recently.
At this time, is she already preparing to break through to legend?
Tuk Tuk!
At this time, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
