Chapter 102 East and West flanges
Hearing Leo's request, Ljungberg shook his head with a wry smile and said: "There is no more information. This information is all I can collect. Not only in the dark world, there are many people who want to know the three
Brothers’ abilities, even in the real world, there are many powerful people who want to know their abilities, but the result is that anyone who knows their abilities is dead.”
"You came to me because you want me to deal with them?" Leo frowned slightly and asked.
"Yes." Ljungberg nodded.
"They also came to No. 9 Golden Oak Street?" Leo asked doubtfully: "I remember that their information showed that they seem to make a living by killing people, and they don't seem to be interested in exploring such mysterious things."
"They are here to kill people." Ljungberg explained: "They are all hounds raised by Rupert Fitz. They were urgently transferred to Miria City this time to kill those members of the Continental Congress for Rupert.
Hostile legislators and officials.”
"Do the senior leaders of the French Empire allow such behavior?" Leo asked with some confusion: "Once a conflict occurs, it is difficult to send assassins to assassinate the enemy's senior leaders. This approach of directly overturning the table is so difficult that it shouldn't be
Is he hostile to all the top leaders of the French Empire? Who can be sure that he will not be the next target to be assassinated by his opponents? "
Ljungberg spoke in shock and said: "You seem to have made a mistake. These three people were hired by Rupert Fitz to kill members and officials of the Continental Congress, not to kill nobles and officials of the French Empire.
.”
Hearing these suggestive words, Leo seemed to understand something. He thought about it and said, "Has the top brass of the French Empire begun to be hostile to the Continental Congress?"
Ljungberg sighed and said: "When Miria I built Miria City and set up the headquarters of the Continental Congress here, he wanted the French Empire to use the Continental Congress to control and influence the politics, military and economy of other countries.
.However, people from other countries are not fools. Since it is inevitable that the headquarters of the Continental Congress will be located in Milia City, they might as well build a Continental Congress headquarters on every continent. In this way, the power of the Continental Congress is guaranteed.
The effect of external influences is weakened to the extreme.”
"Isn't there a master-slave relationship among the three continental parliaments?" Leo asked doubtfully.
Ljungberg explained: "The three continental parliaments are equal, but internal officials and members will interact with each other, just like the speaker who just died was just the legal officer of Mozambique at the beginning."
Hearing the mention of the Speaker, Leo couldn't help but have a strange expression on his face.
Ljungberg noticed the abnormality in Leo's expression and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"
Thinking that Ljungberg would know about this sooner or later, Leo did not hide anything and told what happened last night, which made Ljungberg stunned.
Ljungberg couldn't help but mutter to himself: "No wonder Rupert Fitz was so anxious to transfer the three brothers. It seems that the Speaker's actions disrupted his overall plan and forced him to find outside forces to solve the problem.
question."
Leo did not interrupt Ljungberg's thinking and waited for a while.
After a while, Ljungberg recovered from his contemplation. Instead of talking about the Speaker, he changed the topic back and said: "Judging from the current situation of the French Empire, Miria I's plan has failed.
Yes, not only did they fail to control other countries through the Continental Congress, but they were also influenced by the Continental Congress. Especially the cities in the Western Continent that have a very close relationship with Milia City have been more or less influenced by the thoughts of the Continental Congress.
, it has been proposed more than once to establish a new political system in the Western Continent, which is different from the aristocratic system in the Eastern Continent that is mainly composed of field nobles, court nobles and military nobles, but a system of civilians, businessmen, and nobles mixed together.
The three-tier parliamentary system.”
"No wonder the top brass of the French Empire are so hostile to the Continental Congress. They clearly want to split the French Empire into two." After hearing this, Leo felt a little sympathy for the French Empire and felt that they were hostile to the Continental Congress.
The behavior is completely excusable.
Then he looked at Ljungberg curiously and said, "Whose side are you on?"
"I don't take any side." Ljungberg said with a very certain expression: "I don't like this kind of political game. All I want to do is ensure peace in Miria City."
"You will be hostile to both sides if you do this." As an outsider, Leo can see it more clearly than Ljungberg.
Ljungberg smiled without worry: "At least both of them still need someone like me to stabilize the situation."
Suddenly, Leo seemed to have thought of something. He pondered for a moment and said, "Since the top brass of the French Empire are so hostile to Milia City, didn't the heir to the throne supported by Baron Maupassant make a wrong choice? The top brass of the French Empire
I am afraid that Baron Maupassant will be disgusted with him because of his actions in Miria City, and will support Duke Devin instead."
"That's not necessarily true." Ljungberg seemed to know some inside story, but he had no intention of going into details.
Seeing this, Leo did not ask any more questions, nor did he continue the topic. He returned to the topic and said, "Go and find out where the three brothers lived after they came to Miria City. I..."
"No need to check, many people know where they live." Ljungberg quickly gave the answer, saying: "After the three brothers arrive in Milia City, they will spend a day enjoying themselves in the exclusive suite of Xinghai Hotel.
, and then go out to do errands.”
"Xinghai Hotel? Is it the tallest and most luxurious Xinghai Hotel in the city?" Leo said as he thought about the hotel he saw in the business district.
"Yes." Ljungberg nodded.
Leo asked again: "When will the three brothers arrive in Miria City?"
Ljungberg quickly replied: "They will arrive in the afternoon, so the three brothers will stay in the hotel from the afternoon to tomorrow."
"I'm going to do some on-the-spot investigation to see the location and surrounding conditions of their suite." Leo said, stood up, and was about to walk out.
"Wait, you don't want to go there." Ljungberg also stood up, stopped him, and said mysteriously: "You can also understand the situation around the hotel here."
With that said, he gestured to Leo, walked to a corner of the room, turned on the oil lamp in the room, and then saw the secret door in front of him slowly opening, revealing a spiral staircase leading up to the attic.
Under Ljungberg's leadership, the two went up the spiral staircase and soon reached the attic.
I saw that this attic is a combination of the rooftop attics of four surrounding buildings, so it is very spacious.
A large table occupying two-thirds of the attic was placed on the attic. On the table was a huge city model. Although there were many places that Leo did not recognize, such as the Sky Tower, Red House Street, the Continental Congress Headquarters, etc.
The characteristic buildings can still be identified at a glance.
"Is this a model of Milia City?" Leo looked at Ljungberg in surprise.
"This is a full-scale model of Milia City that I made by myself." Ljungberg looked at the city in front of him, with an obvious sense of pride on his face.
Leo walked around the model, turning the model into data and storing it in the assistant brain system. He compared it with some of the three-dimensional data maps of Miria City that he constructed through the mental network, while comparing Ljungberg's
Generous people are surprised.
What surprised Leo even more was that after his comparison, he found that the architectural proportion data of this model was almost the same as that of real urban buildings. This shows that Ljungberg must have spent a lot of time collecting these architectural data.
.
After seeing this huge model, Leo also understood that Ljungberg really loves this city and treats this city as his own child. He will never allow any outside force, even the French Empire itself.
The forces destroyed it.
Leo didn't say anything. He walked directly to the business district and asked, "Where is the exclusive room for the three brothers?"
"Here." Ljungberg took out a thin stick and pointed at the outer wall of a specially marked room on the Xinghai Hotel model. It seemed that he had been prepared for it.
I saw that this room was located in the middle of the hotel, on the 100th floor or so. Because the exterior wall structures were all very similar, it would be difficult for ordinary people to tell the location of this room from outside the hotel unless it was specially marked.
"How do you get up in the normal way?" Leo asked again.
"There are four security stairs inside the hotel that can go all the way up to the top floor, but there are people guarding them all year round. The security room is in the stairwell of the four stairs, so it is impossible to walk up the stairs silently." Ljungberg took out the article.
He made a sketch of the internal structure of the Xinghai Hotel that he had prepared a long time ago, pointed to the location of the four staircases, and then pointed to the fifteen small squares in the middle, saying: "The fifteen here are steam elevators, and you can go up at one time.
Ten people are the hotel’s main means of transportation.”
As he said that, he suggested: "You can book a room on the floors below the 50th floor, and then try to get to the exclusive suite of the three brothers on the 100th floor from the 50th floor."
Leo asked: "Why is there only the 50th floor? Is it so difficult that I can't book a room on the 100th floor?"
"Rooms on floors above the 50th floor can only be booked by members of Xinghai Hotel. To become a member of Xinghai Hotel, you not only need status, but also need to be recognized by the Xinghai Hotel Committee. The chairman of the committee is Rupert Fitz.
.”
Leo didn't ask any more questions. He looked around the Xinghai Hotel and then pointed with his finger. About 1,200 meters away from the Xinghai Hotel, there was another hotel with a height of 100 floors and asked: "Who runs this hotel?"
?”
"The Crown Hotel of the American steel tycoon Robert." Ljungberg quickly answered for Leo: "Robert originally wanted to build a luxury hotel comparable to the Xinghai Hotel, but because of the unreasonable architectural design, the construction failed.
After one hundred floors, the person in charge of supervising the construction told him that if he continued to build, the bottom building might not be able to bear the weight of the high-rise building and would cause the entire building to collapse, so Robert had to stop construction and was forced to cap it off at the one hundred and tenth floor.
.”
Leo asked: "There shouldn't be any special identity or procedures required to book a room on the 100th floor here, right?"
"No need, as long as you have money." Ljungberg looked at Leo doubtfully and asked, "What's the use of booking a room here?"
"Don't worry, just book a suite here." Leo pointed to the location of the room he requested, and then walked down to the attic.
Although Ljungberg didn't understand why Leo did this, he still followed Leo's instructions and quickly booked a room at the location designated by Leo, and delivered the check-in card and key to him at noon.
in hands.
After getting the room card and key, Leo left Ljungberg's secret headquarters directly, took the carriage prepared by Ljungberg, arrived at the Crown Hotel in the business district, and checked into a room on the 100th floor.
After checking into the designated room, Leo stood in front of the glass window where he could see the Xinghai Hotel, turned on his spiritual vision skills, and used his long-sightedness to look towards the suite where the target would stay.
Because the room has an exterior wall made of huge special glass, you can clearly see what's going on inside the room as long as there are no curtains blocking it.
However, for Leo, it doesn't matter whether he is covered or not. With spiritual vision, he can see the spiritual aura wrapped around everyone. Even if there is something blocking him, he can clearly determine the location of anyone.
After testing the effect of his psychic skills in use, Leo's confidence increased by 20%, and he was waiting for the actual battle in the evening.
In the following time, Leo did nothing else. Apart from instructing the hotel staff to serve delicious food for seven people every half hour, he held the book "Samuel Dunbar's Early Years, Wizard of the Wild
I read the wizard's notes.
Samuel Dunbar obviously did not record his daily habits in his notes. The contents in his notes were all solid knowledge. After reading the notes, Leo also understood why Samuel Dunbar was called the Wizard of the Wilderness.
Because most of the contents recorded in this notebook are detailed information on various plants, insects, animals and other creatures on the three continents of Velen. There are some very rare and special animals and plants that cannot be expressed in words.
When describing, a beautiful sketch will also be attached.
Because the text was recorded in the Gamore language, the entire notebook does not look very thick, but it contains a lot of content. A rough estimate records more than 5,000 different plants, 700 animals, and 3,000 animals.
The knowledge about the appearance, functions and preparation methods of various insects can be called a complete encyclopedia of vinylon organisms.
For ordinary people, although these descriptions of animals and plants are rare knowledge, they are not very important, because the Velen Biological Dictionary published every year by the medical school records more information about animals and plants, and the records
Be more detailed.
But for people in the dark world, especially those pseudo-wizards in wizard gatherings, the contents of this notebook can only be described as priceless.
Because the descriptions of each animal and plant recorded in the notes all include some methods for using these animals and plants in wizard potions, and there are even at least thirty-two wizard potion formulas hidden in them. Each formula is placed in
