Chapter 93 The Beginning of the Fall, Part 2(1/2)
Resting against the windowsill by the wall, Karin poured the last few drops of wine from the bottle into her mouth, and spoke casually to Nia.
"It must, it is true." After raising his head from the almost piled up small and high intelligence, Nia responded and lowered her head again and continued to look through the information in her hands. Although so far, the Ring Spirit City can only rely on the sources of information from the dark elves, elves and Thousand Towers City, and the information they have obtained is mostly well-known on the mainland, but this is also very rare for the Ring Spirit City on the sea. After all, with their current strength, they have no way to form a strict and appropriate intelligence network for their own use. However, this is enough for a conventional intelligence system. After all, as a long-standing library, even in these conventional intelligence, she can see many useful factors.
First, the domestic situation in Lalia was getting worse. It was obvious that the depravity of the Grand Duke was not only in the castle, but also began to move towards the whole country. In a short period of time, not only the national tax rate was increased by five times, but the border was even blocked and all exchanges with Kudr were closed. At the same time, the army was dispatched, obviously not intending to give its territory to Kudr so easily. Since this is a rare confrontation in the Five-Nation Alliance, it also made the residents of the country feel worried. Rumors that the Five-Nation Alliance is likely to be destroyed are also spreading.
For Kudell, the development of things was also beyond their expectations. Relying on the underground passage of the dark elves, Kudell originally planned to occupy this territory surprisingly and then argue with Lariya, and minimize the impact of this matter from a diplomatic perspective. However, he did not expect that Lariya actually took a stance to the death, which made Kudell, who was not prepared, quite embarrassing. After all, although the relationship is not good, he is still in the five-nation alliance. It seems that stabbing the knife in the back can be considered an unspoken rule, but once the other party really rushes up regardless of the situation, it will be a troublesome thing. What's more, the area occupied by Kudell has not yet stabilized and has not yet built fortifications to resist Lariya. If Lariya is really so reckless, the final result will be both sides of the loss, which is not what Kudell wants.
Because Lalia cut off Kudr's relationship, Lalia's foreign trade suffered a lot. At the same time, in order to continue to expand its military, Lalia was not surprised to find resources from other places, which also made the Thousand Towers City make a small profit. After all, it can be regarded as Lalia's closest trading partner except Kudr.
The actions of Grand Duke Lariya naturally caused protests in the country. Although the Lariya people also believed that Kudr's invasion of the country was a very excessive matter, such a one-size-fits-all severance of communication caused a lot of losses to the people of Lariya, and these cannot be blamed on Kudr's head.
Faced with the two countries that were in a stalemate, the Vera Federation, as the center of the Five-Nation Alliance, naturally stood up to reconcile, but Grand Duke Lariya didn't know what medicine he took wrong. I'm afraid only Anjiela and Li Lin knew about it. They rejected the Vera Federation's reconciliation, which looked like "I have no him, he has no me."
Lalia's obvious uncooperational attitude made the Villa Federation very popular, but it was only because of the murder of the Five-Nation Alliance envoy. So the Villa Federation did not do it, and Farah lowered his face to punish Lalia further. Therefore, he could only send envoys again and again to try to reconcile the conflict between the two countries. The Kingdom of Charlotte naturally stood on the side of the Villa Federation and strongly opposed the war between Lalia and Kudr. Of course, they both cleverly ignored Kudr's occupation of Lalia's land, and only asked the two countries to calm down and make a decision after negotiation.
As a marginalized in the Five-Nation Alliance, Didias did not comment on this matter. First of all, Ran's current influence could not affect Lalia and Kudell. Another thing is that only Nia knew about their princess' disappearance. Although Didias is far away from the intelligence network known to the Magic Empire, the disappearance of the Saint is probably not inferior to that of Lalia and Kudell's war. Until now, there has been no rumors or intelligence. Obviously, it is Dideias and the Temple that suppressed this matter. Maybe they are still trying to find Catherine at this moment.
The current trend of the Five Nations Alliance is roughly like this. However, the movements of other small countries around are very beneficial to Nia. Since the Temple and Five County Alliance made statements before, they naturally began to take action to search for those "evil pagans" to destroy them to regain their face. After all, the messengers of the Five Nations Alliance and the Temple were killed. This can be said to have slapped them heavily in the face. If they don't do anything, their reputation will naturally become a matter of concern in the future.
Although all the five countries conducted serious self-inspections, the believers of other gods were not Yiyou. What's more, as Li Lin thought, these pagans have also avoided the search of the Five-Nation Alliance for hundreds of years. Even if they have increased their efforts, they have not caught a few people.
However, compared with the army of the Five Nations Alliance, the Temple obviously did more than it did. Their Knights Templars frequently dispatched during this period and had destroyed several villages. Although they were all small villages, they also caused dissatisfaction among the people of the Five Nations. Some places even refused the knights of the Temple to enter, which eventually led to violent conflicts. However, for the Temple, their purpose was obviously more than this.
The most bad ones are those small marginal countries that are outside the Five Kingdoms Alliance. They are far away from the Five Kingdoms and are naturally also far away from the Temple. They have various customs and habits, and the Temples are not favored by these local customs, and some of them are even blasphemous actions in their eyes. However, there has never been a good idea, so they have to go with them.
But now it is different. For the temple, these customs and habits are different from those of the five countries, and they have become good targets. After all, they originally thought that these small countries were symbols of humility, so they naturally spared no effort to use this as an excuse to start attacking them.
Although in order to avoid stimulating these countries and forcing them to unite to fight, the five-nation alliance did not dispatch troops. The Knights Templars obviously did not take this into consideration. They appeared in the territory of these small countries and attacked in the name of judging evil. These countries obviously did not have enough force to fight against the Templars who had received the sacred blessing. In addition, the original different customs and habits made these small countries extremely resist the existence of these Templars. Even some small countries that had commercial relations with the temple immediately interrupted trade. Of course, this did not have much impact on the temple.
The seeds have been sown. Yi Xunshushushangs the different body clams
Looking through the information in front of you, outlined the situation of the mainland in front of you in your mind! Hou Xi smiled proudly.
Next, it depends on what kind of fruit they can bear.
“Dongdongdongdongdongdong
And just then, a knock on the door sounded.
"Please come in."
Nia calmed down and then spoke. Then the door of the study was pushed open quietly. The figures of the sisters Mina and Fina also appeared in front of them.
"Oh, it turns out it's you two."
Karin raised her hand, held the bottle and shook it at the two of them, saying hello.
"Long time no see, how have you been recently?"
“Everything is good, thank you for your concern
Mina said, stepping forward, then taking out a letter from her arms.
"Miss Nia, the master wants us to come back to get something, and this letter is for you.
"Have some things taken
Nia frowned, but soon returned to her former expression.
"I understand, you guys go down first. I will prepare the things and you will have a rest in the guest room before that."
"yes"
Facing Nia's words, the two of them didn't say anything. They just nodded, then turned around and left the study.
"It's really Soshiat
Looking at the backs of the two, Karin couldn't help but whistle.
"How long hasn't seen each other yet? I've trained the two of them to this way?"
"Soxiet is very serious in this regard. I think you should be very clear about this."
Nia stood up, rubbed her forehead, and quipped helplessly.
"Of course I know." But it's really boring. I think they were quite interesting when they were in Dark Elf City before, and Soshiat really knows how to capture other people's fun."
"You are here, probably not to complain to me about this, Karin.78xs.com"
“That’s right
As he said that, Karin threw it away casually, and a stack of paper fell on Nia's desk.
"We have almost solved the problem of harvesting food. Nia. Even if the current grain is a bumper harvest, it is only enough for us to support for one quarter. Insufficient manpower is a big problem, and my Green Garden is not a farm area. You can't let me cut down all the trees and go farming. Even if I don't matter, those elves will probably fight to stop it."
“Is this why they are reluctant to expand their farmland?”
Nia's mouth curled slightly, and she had obviously noticed the true meaning of Karin's words.
"It's your own business if you think about it. I don't have to eat anyway, and you don't have to eat."
Karin shrugged her shoulders, then said nothing again, and turned around and left.
"The food problem is really difficult for us."
Soshiat, who appeared at some point, brought a cup of warm black tea and said to Nia with a smile.
“So, what are you going to do?
“There is no better way now
Nia was not surprised by Sohiat's appearance. In fact, she had always stood there, but because nothing happened, she did not attract other people's attention.
"After all, when Li Lin designed the Ring Spirit City, he did not consider the food issue too much." This is no wonder. However, the current situation is still within our acceptable range. Soshiait, you should not just make black tea for me, right?"
"There is a report from Yijian."
Ignoring Niya's protesting eyes, Soshiet put two pieces of brown sugar in the tea on his own, and then said. "The research on missiles has made breakthrough progress, and I believe it will be completely completed in the near future. The satellite system has also entered the experimental stage."
"We should hurry and finish it before Li Lin comes back."
Hearing this, Nia wrinkled her shoulders. After all, she knew very well that Li Lin had some things that had not been completely solved.
“It’s hard to say.”
Even though bad news was reported, Soshiat still smiled as usual, and her smiling face never seemed to change.
"So, Nia, do you have any instructions?"
"Just maintain the status quo. There are still some problems with Li Lin that have not been completely solved, and it is not a bad thing to delay the progress here."
As he said that, Nia packed up the information in her hand and then looked out the window.
"Then, I have some very important things to do next."
"Is it the one before?"
Looking at Soshiat's expression, it was obvious that Nia knew what she was talking about, and Nia nodded firmly and nodded.
"The qualification test, spirit test, and magic test have all passed." Next, as long as I pass this test, I will have another good news to tell Li Lin that he will be very happy."
At this moment, Li Lin, who didn't know what "surprise" Nia would bring to her, was sitting on the sand, looking at Catherine standing in front of her with a gentle smile. After Anjiela's training, Catherine no longer tried to cover her body like before. Although her body was still a little stiff and trembling under Li Lin's gaze, she didn't know why. Catherine did not cover her "important parts" anymore, but just let them be exposed to Li Lin's eyes.
"very nice
Observing Catherine's body with satisfaction, Li Lin made such an evaluation.
"Huhuhuhuhugu will actually praise you, but you have to know how to be grateful?"
Hearing Li Lin's words, Catherine's face turned redder, and Angela said with a hint of smug smile. Because the two sisters left, the guy could no longer find a pitiful victim who could use to maintain her girlish form, so he would not turn back into the little girl's appearance. Considering that this was really not deterrent, Li Lin decided to take action himself. After all, the guy also helped him a lot, and it was time for her to see her abilities.
"So, Miss Catherine."
Li Lin changed his position and turned Anjiela, who was crawling in his arms, into a more comfortable koala, and then spoke.
"It's been so long." I wonder how you feel now?"
How does it feel?
Catherine opened her mouth but didn't know how to continue. How did she feel? How could she feel good if she was watched by a man and a little girl so freely? How could she feel good? "Although" I was indeed a little excited inside, and I was a little happy after hearing the man's performance, but "How could this be good?!
“Since you don’t want to say it, then forget it.
Speaking of the reason why Li Lin suddenly sneered, and then he visited the mug with the year. With the sound of magic, several dark tentacles suddenly emerged from the ground and wrapped around Catherine's body.
"This, what is this!"
Catherine was shocked by such a sudden attack. Although Angela had done similar things to her with ropes before, it was just used to tie her up at that time. However, the current situation was obviously completely different, it was smooth. The cold tentacles were wrapped around her limbs, which was definitely not a good feeling.
"Enjoy, Miss Catherine" This is your class today."
"What are you talking about!!"
Before Catherine could finish her words, Li Lin had already clapped her hands, and the black tentacles who received the order immediately twisted on Catherine's body. One of the huge and thick tentacles took advantage of the opportunity of Catherine's opening words to invade her mouth and blocked Catherine's next words.
"Woo, woo!!"
Feeling the lubricating and fishy giant in her mouth, Catherine struggled desperately to escape, but soon, the actions of the tentacles made her unable to continue to resist. The dark and thick tentacles slowly wandered on Catherine's body, attacking her most sensitive parts from various angles. At the beginning, Catherine twisted her body and made a sound to protest, but gradually, under the attack of the tentacles, she no longer resisted, but began to let these terrible things act freely on her body, attacking every place they could use to attack.
Gradually, Catherine's breathing began to become heavy. Her eyes became blurred. The lubricated tentacles had already flowed bright body fluids on her body, and it was particularly tempting to match the white body that showed flushing. Anjiela admired the tentacle version of the "beauty and the beast" in front of her with excited eyes. Li Lin was obviously not satisfied. For him, this was just the beginning. Moreover, Li Lin planned to use another way to satisfy her own good.
The time is almost done.
Thinking of this, Li Lin whispered to sing the spell, and then released the spell quickly. His thoughts left his body and wandered in the boundless sea of souls. With the sound of magic spells, Li Lin's thoughts began to touch the surroundings further. Then, not long after, he discovered his goal: a man walking deep in the forest, covered in scars.
To be continued...
