Chapter 501 158. Instigating Rebellion

Xinghui City, Annan’s good impression of this city comes from the similar name to Xingyue Bay, and his bad feeling comes from the fact that they withheld the box office after Mad Dog Archduke launched the war.

The 10% commercial tax paid by Magic Image cannot satisfy the appetite of the nobles at all. Two months, 5,000 gold coins... They hope to keep this business in their hands.

The Mad Dog Archduke’s attack is an opportunity.

The nobles don't mind adding insult to injury - Annan doesn't mind violent collection either.

When Mr. Swaro appeared at the theater and carried the theater owner to the city lord's palace, the theater owner humbly said: "No matter how much compensation Annan gives you, we are willing to give you double."

Know the Theater Mr. Swaro, whose boss had no say, looked at the city lord: "He gave me half of the proceeds from the magic image."

"...Give the money to Mr. Mage." The city lord said decisively said.

Asking an epic mage to collect debts for him, the Mad Dog Archduke will most likely be unable to do anything to Annan... The city owner gave up his greed and took the initiative to open the treasure house and hand over 5,000 gold coins.

In the mood of "expecting someone to be as unlucky as himself", the city lord watched Mr. Swaro enter the portal.

...

The next morning, Mr. Swaro sent thirty-four thousand gold nuggets.

The budget that was originally in deficit was filled instantly, and with the addition of 400,000 gold coins two days later, Annan began to spend money.

Mage Tower? Why stop? port? Built according to the largest port in the Tatooine Empire! Orichalcum? Take as much as you want! Why did the blacksmith shop stop? We have only a thousand musketeers now, but in a few months there will be two thousand, three thousand musketeers! There are also magic cannons. The future Great Wall of the North is expected to be sixty miles long. Is it too much to place a magic cannon every ten meters?

“It’s not enough to spend four hundred thousand gold coins like this.” Ingrid couldn’t help but remind her when she saw that the newly normalized finances had returned to deficit.

"I told you, money is what circulates. Our wealth has not disappeared, it has just changed a way to accompany us."

It just so happened that Ilimoyas and the three young dragons were in the city lord Flying over the house, Annan used them as an example: "Do you know why the dragon, one of the most powerful creatures in Allen Continent, is always in small numbers? Because there are endless dragon hunting teams coveting the dragon's treasures. If the dragon takes them If the wealth is exchanged for magic books, strong castles, and dungeons full of traps, only fools would trouble the dragon."

"How much is dragon skin and dragon blood worth?"

Annan's sophistry really convinced Ingrid. Looking at the bright side, her city lord is neither arrogant or extravagant nor dissolute. At most, he always likes to bring people to the Free City. All the money earned was spent on the city... A leader like Elf Calendar was enough to be put on the altar and hold up the divine fire.

Ingrit changed the topic and talked about the crazy blood of the Principality of Montaburlok.

Girardi was shocked when he knew that Annan knew about it. Frankly speaking, it was true. This curse followed the Montabourlock family.

The Mad Dog Archduke was also suspected, but he carried it out publicly. Exorcism, nothing found.

Girardi also said that there is usually only one or no mad blood in a generation, and the demon king will never be so bored that he peeps into the lives of the descendants of the Montabourlock family all day long...

Probably not...

As a result, in the evening, an unexpected guest came to the city lord's mansion.

"Don't worry, I come with good intentions." The gray-robed mage said to Annan who took a deep breath.

"I know..." Annan, who said this, instantly activated two magic talismans and hid them behind the arriving Mr. Swaro and Dean Breshim. Pointing at the gray-robed mage and shouting: "That's him!"

"I created an opportunity for you." The gray-robed mage said helplessly.

“Frank?”

Mr. Swaro, who was observing the gray-robed mage, suddenly said. The gray-robed mage was slightly startled: "You are... Swaro?"

By coincidence, Mr. Schwaro and Frank traveled together when they were young.

"You went to the north to pursue knowledge, and I followed the footsteps of destiny... We are all the same." The gray-robed mage's emotions showed a slight fluctuation. "It's different!" Annan raised his head, "Mr. Shivaro fought against the rat tide in the north until the last moment, and you and the mad dog princess are in cahoots, and you want to frame an underage lord!"

< br>
"Princess?"

"I mean the Grand Duke..." Annan said, facing Mr. Swarovski's disdainful gaze.

"I'm sorry for deceiving you, but in my prophecy... only you are immune to the backlash of the curse."

"Our future will change according to the prophecy."

The gray-robed mage said that this was wrong. The prophecy was like dropping an anchor on the river of time and watching where it drifted.

"Anyway, I don't know how to use cursed crystals." The gray-robed mage is not Mr. Swaro, and Annan has no trust in him.

The gray-robed mage regretted that an excellent observation target did not cooperate: "The Grand Duke is planning to have Luo Lan attack you in the deal two days later."

"Loran?"

"The Lord of the Watch Territory."

"I know him..." Annan was thoughtful, "Can you let me meet him?"< br>
……

“I will never take refuge in you!”

At first, Lord Lorraine, who was forcibly captured by the gray-robed mage, resisted fiercely. Huge waves surged in his heart... The president of the Mage Association actually colluded with Annan!

“I know you are loyal to the Principality of Montabourlock, but what if the true heir of the principality is with me?”

“...What?”

“Gira "Girardi, he's in Liberty City." Annan tilted his head and shouted out of the corridor: "Abby! Get Girardi from the tavern!"

Lord Lorraine is loyal to the Mad Dog Archduke, but He didn't have much loyalty. Seeing that the real Grand Duke and the president of the Mage Association were all on Annan's side, he fell into his final hesitation - because the time when he was captured by Annan was not pleasant.

"We have fought before... Luo Lan, you have watched Gem Bay change from a gravel beach to what it is now." Annan said in a gentle tone, like a friend, "And the actions of Mad Dog Archduke are getting more and more crazy... Do you want to choose a ship that is doomed to sink, or a floating city that is rising?"

"I want to think about it..."

"Mr. Dar Frank, he said. Think about it." Annan looked at the gray-robed mage.

"In order to prevent leaks, I will erase his memory."

"Please wait! I...I promise to surrender to you." Under the threat of amnesia, Lord Lorraine finally Chevalier to Girardi.

Girardi, whose face was still stuck with the note that he had lost too many times, was stunned. In any case, the real Grand Duke of the principality is finally no longer alone.

And this also means that Mad Dog Archduke’s side has become a sieve.

Annan began to look forward to the trading ceremony the day after tomorrow.

On the surface it is a trap prepared by Mad Dog Archduke for Annan, but in fact it is a trap prepared by Annan for the trap Mad Dog Archduke prepared for himself.
