Chapter 549 Imperial Account
After Mo Tan left with the unlucky bird, he came to an open space on the edge of the Crystal Wolf station, because the soldiers stationed here had been there for more than a month last night. They had already lined up to gather in the central area hours ago, so there were not many people left here except for a small number of support staff who were still collecting pots and pans.
It only took Mo Tan about two minutes to borrow a set of kitchen utensils, and then he found a bonfire and roasted Crow's Raven No. 12 on it. He sat down comfortably. On the folding stool that came along, while humming a tune and turning the simple grill in front of him, he took out the piece of paper that he had secretly received in his luggage, scanned it twice at a glance, laughed a few times, and then put it away. Throw it into the fire and burn it.
The dead courier naturally can no longer spare the strength to protect this rather fragile information.
After another ten minutes, Mo Tan turned the 'dead messenger' into the 'eaten messenger' and then stood up with satisfaction, picking his teeth and walking towards Mithril City with three unsteady steps. Wandering in the direction, he soon appeared in front of the city gate, and happened to meet His Majesty the Emperor and six Grand Dukes who had just finished breakfast at Liuli Pavilion and were walking out surrounded by a large group of elite guards.
Then he stood impartially in the middle of the road, holding his arms and smiling as he looked at the most valuable group of people in the empire in front of him.
"Please step aside, sir."
A guard from the Hussein family strode forward, his right hand holding the rather gorgeous long knife at his waist. He looked at Mo Tan with an evil look: "I'll give you five seconds..."
Five seconds is exactly the time it takes for the people behind to walk here at a constant speed.
The implication is very obvious, that is, if you don’t get out of the way, I will chop you up before the big guys come over, and then let your body get out of the way.
"Oh?"
Mo Tan looked at the Jin Tianping escort member in front of him with a smile, who must be at least a commander-level member, and grinned: "One, two, three..."
< br>This guy actually counted for the other party.
“Unbridled!”
Seeing that the other party not only blocked the road but also took the initiative to provoke, the guard who was visually very wealthy became angry on the spot. He pulled out the long knife from his waist with a swish sound. , and then...
"Stop."
Grand Duke Hussein's voice came from behind, forcibly making this man stop his half-swing to the side, and almost dodged his waist.
The guard brother covered his waist and turned around to salute: "Your Excellency, this person..."
"You don't have to worry about this person."
Grand Duke Hussein has recovered. He has lost the calmness of the past, and his energy is similar to that of last night. The expression of the man who had just died in the Buddhist house over twenty years ago was completely different. He first waved away the guards, then smoothed his goatee, and went forward with a smile on his face: "Mr. Dabbs, everyone thought you were at the residence. Waiting over there.”
Grand Duke Baroka and Grand Duke Crystal Wolf from behind also came over and looked at Mo Tan with rather painful eyes. Their expressions were very complicated and they didn't say a word for a long time.
Archduke Simon and Archduke Dantès lagged behind. Neither of them looked very good-looking, but there was a certain degree of difference. The former was mainly heartache, lingering fear and fear, while the latter was completely the same. The assistant looks hopeless.
As for Archduke Fernando who was following him, he was trying to reduce his presence while carefully avoiding being stepped on by any blind guard, although this would rarely happen around others. He was among the elite among the elite, but he still clumsily moved his short legs around in the crowd in a rather comical way.
"Coincidentally, I just ate a little too much in the morning and wanted to take a walk before chatting."
Mo Tan replied to Grand Duke Hussein with a smile, and then said to Baroka and Crystal Wolf shrugged their shoulders. Just as they were about to say something, they saw Zi Jing appear quietly in front of them, bowed slightly and said: "There are many people here, so if you have anything to say, I'd better wait until I get there first." Let’s talk about it later, Mr. Dabbs.”
There is no doubt that this is what Clairvaux meant.
Mo Tan also nodded obediently, clapped his hands and said: "That's very good, then let's walk."
So after a short stay, there were more people in this team An unemployed bard who lowers the lower limit of per capita status. To be honest, if this guy hadn't been playing with his tattered lute as he walked, everyone would have almost forgotten that this 'Anthony Dabbs' was still A bard's setting.
……
Ten minutes later
Game time AM07:34
Outside of Mithril City, in the center of the lords' coalition station, the special edition of the Violet Royal Tent Glazed Pavilion
The Imperial Emperor Clairvaux, the Grand Duke of the Crystal Wolf, the Grand Duke of Baroka, The Archduke Dantès, the Archduke Simon, the Archduke Fernand, the Archduke Hussein and the bard Anthony Dabus gathered here Although the room is called a 'tent', its area is no less than that of the tent in Liuli Pavilion's most luxurious suite. Last night, the boss of Liuli Pavilion in Mithral City sent this thing to the grand viewing hall. The reason was that the pedicure master Because my daughter-in-law had a difficult childbirth and took leave, in order to compensate His Majesty for the loss of a pedicure, a small tent of the same style as the Diamond Suite at Liuliting was given as an apology.
"I'm so brave..."
Mo Tan sat at the end of the long table in the center of the tent's main hall, looking around the surrounding decorations with envy and hatred, and smacked his lips. Mouth sighed: "You are so rich."
Compared with the gentle and polite appearance when he first broke into the Purple Nine Hall, he now looks like he has no inhibitions. Although it is not too bad, he did this in front of the people around him who are at the top of the Purple Empire. An 'ordinary bard' who behaves in this way can already be convicted of lese majeste.
Of course, the premise is... he is really just an ordinary bard.
Today, I am afraid no one would feel that way.
"Ahem, by the way, where is Ms. Futaba?"
After ignoring someone's sigh with everyone, Grand Duke Baroka cleared his throat and asked Mo Tan Said: "She should be participating in our discussion on behalf of the Fire Claw Territory, right?"
Mo Tan waved his hand and leaned back lazily on the chair: "She entrusted me with all the responsibilities. She said that she was a little injured from the meeting some time ago, and she was feeling unwell, so she was lying down. "
"It's warped..."
The Grand Duke of Baroka choked at that time. After a while, he smiled bitterly and shook his head after a while: "How should I put it? He is indeed the apprentice that Ana likes. Even his personality is so similar."
"Wait, what's wrong with her body?" "
The focus of Grand Duke Emmeline of the Crystal Wolf is in another place.
Mo Tan raised his eyebrows and replied without thinking: "Well, we played a little too high and too late yesterday, so her mental state is relatively depressed now."
Emilyen suddenly stared. His eyes widened and he exclaimed: "What are you talking about..."
"Playing cards is very brain-burning after all." Mo Tan He took out a stack of Tarot cards from his pocket, cut and shuffled them in a dizzying manner for a few seconds, then spread his hands to reveal a neat row of identical [Devils], and smiled and said: "How about we play all night together when you have time? "
Emily spat lightly with a reddish complexion, but said nothing.
"Then, let's start as soon as possible..."
A few seconds later, seeing that no one had any intention of greeting, Clairvaux smiled calmly and turned his eyes to Mo Tan: "Da Mr. Booth, I have told everyone what you said when you came here last night. To be honest, everyone, including me, thought about it all night. "
Mo Tan nodded slightly, then looked around at the six grand dukes who were already looking solemn, and said softly: "It doesn't matter whether the 'information' I provided is incredible or not. What matters is whether you are willing or not. Are you willing to believe it?”
Silence fell again...
“I believe it”
Half a minute later, the Archduke Dantès, who was always in a state of despair, broke the silence with three words, and it seemed that he had no intention of saying anything more.
"I believe it too."
Archduke Simon also nodded and said solemnly: "Although there is no substantial evidence, Buffy can learn from Sara Moon's It is difficult to find any other explanation other than what Mr. Dabbs said." br>“I believe it too.”
Grand Duke Hussein immediately expressed his position and said righteously: “The testimony mentioned by Sakfris before said that the Marshallese slave-catching group was related to The Viper Chamber of Commerce and a certain mysterious sect have a three-way cooperation. If the so-called sect and the Marshall family are together, many things will be explained.”
"Believe it."
Grand Duke Baroka knocked on the table lightly and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Do you still remember the evidence left by Captain Ned? After a simple comparison, you can find that Yu Wei The number of slaves sold by the Snake Merchant Guild is far less than the total number of missing people. In addition to the Viper channel, if the Marshalls use their own power to transfer slaves, dozens or even hundreds can be transported out of the territory secretly. It is impossible not to be noticed by our other families, so those people can only be 'digested' by the Marshall territory."
"And the way of 'digestion'..."
Emmeline clenched her fists hard and gritted her teeth: "If it is sacrificed to the evil god as a sacrifice, or used to perform some kind of ritual, it makes perfect sense. I have seen many people mention it before. There are countless ways to vaporize tens of thousands of people in the books of evil cults and evil gods.”
Needless to say, she naturally believed it.
As for Mo Tan, after Emmeline finished speaking, he turned his attention to the mercury-core Fernan who had several layers of cushions under his butt.
The latter was stunned for a moment, then looked around and laughed twice: "I...I believe it too."
I have to say that this Mediterranean Grand Duke is really a wonderful person. People, when four people (Mo Tan, Clairvaux, Dantès, Hussein) already know their true identity, can continue to act like a pig so naturally.
Of course, this attitude of not being afraid of boiling water is also related to his not wanting to eat tigers. The purpose of Archduke Fernando pretending to be a pig is just to prevent others from causing trouble, asking for his opinions, and not talking to him. That’s all, it would be great if you could think of yourself as a real pig.
However, after a brief chat with Mo Tan that day, he knew very well that his good days were coming to an end. Even if Clairvaux and others were willing to continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, it would be useless. A certain His Highness probably won’t let himself continue to hang out...
All in all, after Archduke Fernando finished speaking, the only one who did not express his opinion among the people present was Clairvaux Bresne, and he obviously did not intend to be unconventional, so...
"In this way, the topic of whether the Marshall family colludes with the cultists can be ended."
Clever nodded slightly, and then whispered to Mo Tan: "So Mr. Dabbs, you can continue what you didn't finish last night."
"Okay, Your Majesty, that's what I meant."
Mo Tan leaned on the table with one hand. He went up, cupped his cheeks and said with a smile: "Since everyone has believed what I said, let me tell you straight away. In today's battle, our coalition of lords, which is theoretically guaranteed to win, will be very dangerous."
Clairvaux didn't ask nonsense like 'What kind of dangerous method'? He just didn't have time to think and speculate and asked: "Is it because of those possible cultists?"
Since everyone knows that from the apparent strength It is analyzed that the coalition forces cannot lose, so after simple elimination, there is only one possibility.
"That's right."
Mo Tan nodded sharply and smiled: "Our enemies are not only the Buffy Sword Knights, the Ice Veil Mage Group and the Mercury Guards, but also the Mercury Guards. There are those cultists who have been lurking in Mercury City for who knows how long. I believe that as the top leader of the Whispering Sect, Buffy Marshall has absolute control over those people, and we are forcing them to desperation. Under such circumstances, no matter how reluctant he is, he must play this trump card as a final struggle, and this tremor is likely to directly reverse the situation."
Archduke Simon frowned slightly: " Reversing the situation? As long as those cultists are exposed, what if he wins the battle? Even if he kills us all, there will be no room for him in this continent."
"Well said."
Mo Tan clapped his hands, then shrugged: "But in fact, the power of that sect is very strange. Please recall the incident of Buffy's escape from prison. If I hadn't done it in advance If I tell everyone about this, who would have thought that he relied on the evil god What about the one who escaped with his strength? You will only find it inexplicable that Buffy escaped. In the same way, if everyone did not know about this before the war started, you would only find it inexplicable that you lost and it would be difficult to associate it with the evil god. "
The Grand Duke of Baroka narrowed his eyes slightly Eye: "In this case..."
"In this case, the situation of the Grand Dukes and His Majesty Clairvaux will become very dangerous."
Mo Tan grinned and said leisurely : "So for this battle, please be sure to be fully prepared. It's best to I will put myself on the side with a smaller chance of winning, and I will also provide some pertinent suggestions. Although it is difficult to eliminate the opponent's advantages, at least it will not make us confused from the beginning, and we can still create something no matter how difficult it is. A very even situation, and then..."
"No need to continue."
Clever Bresne interrupted Mo Tan lightly, stood up and looked around the other six people...
"We all know what to do. Do.”
