Chapter 8 Ups and Downs
Just as the first type 1 tank was completed, Victor was taken to the Baron's study by Christine, who would return at some time.
The two of them pushed open the door and walked in. The wizard saw the Baron missing his mind facing the table in front of him.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at the irritable expression of his father-in-law who was different from usual, his face was a little joyful. The black-robed mage, who was surprised, couldn't help but walk over and asked quietly.
"You can see it yourself."
The Baron didn't seem to want to say anything more, and directly pushed the files on the desktop to his son-in-law.
The wizard took it curiously, looked through a few pages, and then understood what the Baron was worried about.
With the chaos of Luandongling, the current flamingo Duke of Luandongling will naturally send his envoys to regulate disputes or suppress chaos. This is exactly what all Luandongling nobles were expected by the neighbors around them, so everyone took advantage of this chaotic time to make a big plan so that they could get enough benefits before the messenger arrived. This is also one of the reasons why Viscount Ahana dared to ignore the conventional rules among the nobles and attack the Swift family, who were also nobles, at will.
But when the envoy sent by the Flamingo Grand Duke arrived at the Luandong Corridor and the nobles divided the Luandong Corridor, an unexpected accident occurred.
A group of fully armed thieves attacked the envoy of the Flamingo Duke in a mountain range that was about to enter the Luandong Territory, and left the noble who was expected by the Luandong Territory, who was said to be very famous in the Duandong Territory forever.
After learning about this, the Grand Duke of Flamingo was naturally shocked.
It is unacceptable for any lord to openly kill the nobles they protect within their own sphere of influence.
Amid the worries and anxiety of the nobles of the Luandong Leader and even the surrounding neighbors, the angry Duke of Huo Liebiao directly sent his strongest Fire Bird Knights under his command to enter Luandong Leader and thoroughly investigate the matter.
This is definitely not good news for the nobles of Luandong and even their neighbors.
If the Grand Duke just sent an envoy, they could naturally fool the envoy and then divide the Luan Winter Corps that is worthy of dividing. A baseless messenger can easily deal with them, such as local snakes. However, the Grand Duke sent a knight group to have the ability to left and right Luan Winter Corps. How could he please them by batting the benefits they had just swallowed?
As for the murdered aristocratic messenger? These nobles who are proficient in various thick black sciences have long understood it.
The Grand Duke obviously wanted to interfere in the matter of winter, so he found such an excuse. The poor nobleman probably had been abandoned by the Grand Duke long ago.
After seeing it, Master Zhai looked up strangely.
"Uncle. What does this have to do with us?"
No matter who will lead the leadership in the future, it will really have little impact on small nobles like them.
"Uh, another thing I'm worried about."
Upon hearing this question, the Baron stood up and turned the documents in someone's hand to one of the pages.
"This is the one who leads the team this time. He has something to do with Viscount Ahana. I am afraid that he will take the opportunity to cause trouble. No matter what, the Grand Duke will always be given a scapegoat when he is killed."
The wizard bowed his head again and saw the information about an eighth-level knight named Wellington.
"Uncle. I think this is completely unfair."
After seeing it, the black-robed mage closed the documents in his hand and comforted the Baron. He was just a relative who was in a mess. I believe that a little smarter would not risk offending a legendary mage and a mysterious mage to attack Akihabara for a distant relative.
"Those guys are not easy to deal with. This time I was cheated for no reason..."
The Baron's expression remains the same.
The Grand Duke obviously wanted to teach them such remote nobles a lesson through the Luan Dongzhuan and strengthen their control over this land.
These nobles who are used to being local emperors will naturally not sit still and wait for death. Although they cannot resist the Grand Duke openly, they can provoke relationships privately. For example, taking the opportunity to provoke conflicts between the Knights of the Flying Bird and a mysterious mage, on the one hand, they can test Akihabara's strength, and on the other hand, they can add some trouble to the Grand Duke, so that the Grand Duke knows that this place is not a place to be kneaded at will. After all, the matter about a mysterious mage behind Akihabara is only circulated within the scope of the Luandongtang.
"I'm worried about this."
After saying that, the Baron looked up and looked at his son-in-law in anticipation.
Faced with unified enemies, the nobles who were already full of contradictions but had already gained their own benefits will definitely unite.
For some news circulating in a small range, they will definitely tacitly block it. As for the Baron to reveal it personally, that's just a joke. No big noble would believe what a small noble in the countryside who had met for the first time revealed. What's more, no matter how you look at this situation, it's like a little noble who doesn't know how high the sky is, and it's thankful that it doesn't work.
"Well, we might be able to go through Garwayne's relationship."
After a moment of silence, Victor muttered thoughtfully.
The only one who can get in touch with the commander of the Fire Bird Knights and who can make the believer is probably the only one who has a very high status, the Flame** Master.
"Maybe."
Upon hearing this, the Baron's expression relaxed a little.
Afterwards, he waved his hand and signaled that his son-in-law and daughter could leave and go to work on their own affairs.
As for how to deal with this matter? They can only deal with it by chance. Akihabara's status is too low and there is no basic circle established, so they can only deal with it passively.
"Goodbye, uncle."
"Goodbye, dad."
...
Victor just left the study, but was stopped by Christine for no reason.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the girl who had been not dealing with him stopping him, Master Zhai's face was full of surprise.
"I want to ask, what did you do to those toothed horses?"
The girl asked lightly.
Since the black-robed mage left, the toothed horses he transformed have not stopped changing, but have gradually become stronger over time. Now, the outstanding individuals among them have already caught up with the wildebeest. This is definitely very good news for those knights with the toothed horses and even Akihabara. Because the stronger the horses mean that the knights can sprint faster, and can last longer on the battlefield, greatly increasing the fighting power of the knights.
The only shame is that those toothed horses cannot be copied at all.
Until now, they still maintain a number of about 300, which made the commander of the Knights very annoyed, so she took this opportunity to ask her brother-in-law for doubts.
"Do you think I'll tell you?"
Looking at the serious blonde girl, Victor asked back with some jokingness.
The girl is a fair and good knight. But she is not a good noble who is good at dealing with complex relationships and is full of scheming. For the better future of Akihabara and for some bad taste in her heart, a prank suddenly appeared in the mind of the wizard. Of course, the next thing needs the cooperation of the girl. If the girl is willing, he does not mind adjusting more in his future life and train the blonde girl in front of him.
"Speak out your conditions."
It seemed that the reaction of the black-robed mage had long been expected. The blonde knight Ji asked in a calm tone.
The relationship between the two was not good at all and had been maintained at a slightly stronger level than a stranger. She naturally had to pay enough money to get what she wanted from someone's mouth.
"Any conditions?"
Master Zhai confirmed, and his vague idea became clear at the same time.
"The conditions that do not violate the principles of the Knight."
The tone of the blonde knight Ji turned a little cold, and she seemed to think of something bad.
"Well, if you put on a maid outfit tonight and prepare a fine dinner for me, I will happily answer your questions."
Victor was afraid that the girl would misunderstand something and would cause unnecessary trouble, so he directly told the conditions.
"Is that just that?"
After hearing this, the girl paused and confirmed.
"Uh-huh."
Master Zhai nodded.
It is a thing that makes the otaku excited when being served by a beautiful girl in a maid outfit.
"Okay. I'll go, I hope you keep your promise."
I felt that this was not an unbearable condition, so the girl agreed in a calm tone. As for whether she would be deceived, I believe that as long as the knight sword in her hand was still sharp, she would ensure that things were fair and fair, and cut off all darkness and unfairness.
"Then, let's go."
After saying that, the girl turned around and left.
"Goodbye."
The wizard turned around and walked in the opposite direction of the girl.
A type of tank needs to be tested on the spot to ensure that nothing big mistakes will happen. Now there is a while before supper begins, so he naturally doesn't want to waste it.
...
“Victor.”
On the road leading to the underground secret room, Victor was blocked by the red robed wizard Garwayne.
"I have something to do now, and we are here tonight..."
Master Zhai explained and prepared to go over the Red Robe Master to continue to work on his own affairs.
"Victor, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the evening. I'm here to say goodbye to you now."
But Gawayne grabbed him again and smiled bitterly at him.
"Well……"
Hearing this, the black-robed mage became surprised.
"What's wrong?"
"Some damn villain said bad things about me in front of my grandfather, so my grandfather told me to go back quickly, so I can only..."
The Hongpao Master explained with some gritted teeth. To be honest, he didn't want to leave here at all, but his grandfather's personality was as irritable as him. If he went back a little later, he would not guarantee that his grandfather would do anything irreversible.
"Okay, my friend, be careful on the way."
After hearing this, Victor patted the red robed mage on the shoulder and said goodbye to him, but there was a hint of understanding in his heart.
