Chapter 515 Testing


Chapter 515 Test

McDonald was very angry. He stood up and slapped the stone table in front of him hard, causing the table to clang.

"Aldrich, if you were a warrior, I would ask you to go outside and fight me right now."

His nostrils were spraying with anger as he finished this sentence Finally, he sat down on the stone bench again.

The reason why he was a little panicked after hearing that he was going to go against the Holy See was not because of his religious beliefs, but because of the reaction of a soldier who had experienced many battles and calmly considered the strength of the two parties.

Are these scholars who stay in the White Tower doing research all day long and have their brains broken?

"Oh, Lord Macdonald, I apologize to you. I was just provoking you, and I didn't really doubt your loyalty. As wise as you are, I must have seen it now."< br>
Aldrich apologized to him with regret.

“In fact, you don’t have to worry at all. Our strength is not as weak as you think. Our fellow casters have shown their strength in all aspects. I think as an imperial soldier After you have seen their abilities, you will be happy to study the military application of magic."

McDonald took a breath, "What I am worried about is not the church in the empire, but. It is the Holy See that stands behind it. The Holy See is not inferior to the Empire in terms of performance in all aspects, and it also has the support of fanatical believers from all over the continent.”

"Haha, Lord Macdonald."

Jalvi took his words.

“There will be someone who goes to the Holy See before us.”

“Who?”

“Angle Bay.”

MacDonald suddenly realized, "Could it be that you are behind the recent situation in Corner Bay... and are operating?"

"Ahem, Lord MacDonald, it's not [you], it's [us] now. ”

Aldrich reminded him that now they are on the same front.

“You are right in your guess. Our promoters did play a role in the situation in Jiaowan becoming what it is now. And it will become more and more intense until the Holy See is dragged into the water.”

McDonald doubted: "With the strength of those city-states, can they compete with the Holy See's army?"

Aldrich stroked his beard and laughed: "Hey, Mr. Macdonald, don't underestimate those fat-minded merchants in Cape Bay. They have controlled the trade between the East and the West for a long time and make a lot of money every year. They Having strong financial resources to support a high-quality army is just reducing their wallets, and once the battle approaches the sea, their true ferocity will be revealed. Many sea merchants are pirates behind their backs. , if the Holy See plunges in, it will lose its skin no matter what."

"And we can carefully observe the performance of the Holy See with wide eyes, evaluate their strength, and then formulate corresponding countermeasures."

McDonald's expression returned to normal, "It's very cunning, but it is indeed a sound strategy for us." "In addition." Aldrich continued: "We will borrow some information from Cape Bay at the right time. Disclose the existence of spell casters in the name of a country and publicly recognize the legal status of spell casters to the entire continent. If this does not cause a group to attack, then we will repeat this behavior in Gabeira. ——Of course, after His Royal Highness Antonio inherits the throne."

McDonald asked: "What if it causes a siege from various countries?"

Aldrich replied: "No matter how countries react, it is beneficial to our plan. Lord Macdonald, you know, as long as the first country does this, then when the second country does this , people’s psychological endurance or acceptance will be greatly improved, whether they agree or disagree.”

McDonald is no longer as worried as before, he is now more and more worried about the so-called secret method. The more curious I became, the curiosity was mixed with a trace of awe.

Oh, and these two people in front of me... they can be regarded as my old friends, and they have done so many things quietly.

"One more thing, does your Majesty know about this?"

McDonald asked with some worry. Strictly speaking, the current emperor is the one he should be loyal to. If He didn't know anything, so wouldn't he, Aldrich, and Alvi have become colluding among the ministers?

"I don't know!" Aldrich's quick reply made McDonald nervous.

The old bachelor said melancholy: "Bartley... is an upright but old-fashioned man. His character is not suitable for sitting on this throne. I have to say that this is the result of his father's shaping. , so as not to pose a threat to his brother who was supposed to inherit the throne, but fate caused his brother to leave early, and Battery was pushed to inherit the throne. Of course, Battery was very smart, and he was theoretically aware of it. He has a good grasp of what a qualified ruler should be, but in practice he hates many of them."

"It's not that his character is bad, in fact I like and admire him very much. But if Bartley knew about this, he would definitely find a way to talk to the Holy See. He ideally believed that in the face of such a major event as human life and death, the Holy See would abandon its long-standing prejudices and Choose to reconcile with the wizards and resist the common enemy..."

Aldrich saw the look in MacDonald's direction, "Please don't doubt it, because I once made insinuations. I have tried him, please believe in the art of speaking skills of an old White Tower scholar when exploring the true attitude of others."

At this point, Aldrich shook his head regretfully, "Alas... ...I am just afraid that he will be honest with the Holy See. If Bartley can be like his son-any one will do-how much trouble I will have."

Macdonald said hesitantly: "But no matter what, His Majesty is an obstacle that we cannot get around. This country belongs to him."

"It belongs to him, and in the future it will belong to his son." "Aldrich's eyes became cold and he said in a low tone: "Compared with the crisis of the demise of human civilization, personal feelings and old morality are insignificant. But no matter what, I will guarantee it. The country of Gabeira will be passed down in Battery’s bloodline.”

After saying this, emotions such as sadness, guilt, determination, and determination flashed across the old bachelor’s face.

Jalvi patted Macdonald on the shoulder and comforted him and said: "His Royal Highness Antonio will not embarrass his father. He will get the respect and corresponding status he deserves. Please rest assured."< br>
McDonald lowered his head, as if in deep thought. After a long time, he raised his head, looked at the two bachelors, and said firmly:

"Maester Aldrich, and Maester Alvi, thank you for everything you have done for Gabeira and for humanity."

"I feel...feeling that I can personally participate in your cause. Very honored.”
