Law of the Devil Chapter 538: [Benevolence]
Chapter 538 [Benevolence]
What is spreading fastest in this world?
It's not a disease, it's not a virus, it's ... a little news.
Whether it is good news or bad news, this kind of thing can spread spontaneously through the air, and it spreads much faster than people think.
The news that the Kaspersky defense line in the north was attacked by the enemy seemed to have wings and soon spread to the interior of the empire. In the imperial capital, it became a topic for everyone to talk about.
In the legend, a group of unknown enemies appeared in the north of the empire, a new race, they were in strong physical clothes, fierce and brutal ... I heard that they had already fought with the Stormwind Legion?
This topic suddenly became a focus in the streets and lanes. Everyone was talking about these things. At the end, most people would say with emotion: Fortunately, our powerful Stormwind Legion is guarding the frontier.
Indeed, in this era of no planes, no trains, no phones, no advanced communication tools, the north ... even thousands of kilometers away, it seems to people to be another world. Although everyone is a little scared of this new monster enemy, but people do not associate their own security with this incident deep in their hearts ... After all, that happened thousands of kilometers away, which is still very far from themselves. It's far away ... isn't it?
In fact, although the rumored news shows the fierce and brutality of these monster enemies, but I heard that the Storm Legion has achieved some victories in the battle with these monsters. It is indeed the Storm Legion! Of course! Those brave troops of the empire won even Warcraft, not to mention some monsters.
In fact, the news was spread intentionally or unintentionally by the Imperial Army.
Prince Chen deeply understands the principle of "boil frogs in warm water ..." This principle was talked to by Du Wei in his early years. Although the theory of "boil frogs in warm water" has been proved experimentally. The frog will not be boiled to death in the water, but will jump out. However, this theory still made Prince Chen very much agree.
If you want everyone to accept a big bad news, the best way is not to drag it out all at once, but to say it little by little and let everyone accept it little by little.
So, the current version of the news that has been modified by the Empire is: The monsters are powerful, but the army can deal with them. And it seems far less severe than the Warcraft rages two years ago.
Most of the people accepted the news calmly, without any fright, and the extent was only reached: when the folks scared the children, they would say, "If you don't obey, the monster will eat you!" Category.
The Temple of Light has also made a positive response. In the light church, which has been silent after the new emperor Charles succeeded, finally made some actions to satisfy the royal family in the face of this event.
The latest news released in the temple is the announcement of Her Majesty the Pope, his great respect. The kind of monster in the north is an evil heresy that betrays the gods, but the people of Roland who are blessed by the great gods will surely destroy them! Because we are a people who believe in gods, gods are on our side.
"I have to say. Religion is sometimes useful."
At the Imperial Military Academy, Dewey is sitting in his room. The official name here should be "Dean's Office".
Du Wei leaned on a chair, in front of his close friend Zach and his brother Gabri.
Gabri has done well in these months of college. He has been promoted, and although he is still a student, he already has the rank of Captain.
He sent a military newspaper with a commander's command ... unlike the news from the local people, this military newspaper is a top-secret document. The previous day, the search team of the Storm Corps was in the wild and the criminal army The completion of small-scale warfare, true report without moisture!
Different from the folk news, if this military report is disclosed. I am afraid it will really cause panic! Because anyone who is smart can see that at least this army report shows that the enemy ’s combat power is stronger than the most elite army of the empire! And ... they eat people!
Warcraft also eats people, but Warcraft has no wisdom, so it is not terrible.
"The Bright Church did a good job this time." Du Wei smiled: "I hope they continue to cooperate ... After all, this is also related to their own survival. Now everyone has boarded a boat."
Du Wei then looked at Zach: "You did a good job and spread the news. You are very good at it."
"Boss, but the north is up. Our business has been greatly impacted. All the hunting and hunting teams in the frozen forest have been collected. For a long time to come, our business income will be Greatly reduced. "
"We are not short of money now." Du Wei smiled: "Wait next month. I am afraid that our fleet will be able to send a new batch of income from Nanyang. As for the business of Warcraft, the focus is temporarily Put it in the southern marsh. Although the meat there is a bit thinner, it is better than nothing. Let the Snow Wolf Mercenary Group develop to the south, and I will tell you something ... "
"The first batch of griffins have all hatched. I have deployed enough manpower in the manor a hundred miles outside the city. From the present point of view, it is still smooth. The first batch of griffins have successfully survived, only However, no progress has been made in domestication. After all, our animal trainers have no experience in taming gryphons. "
"The Decepticon Aerial Knights have already transferred over two hundred reserves, and will report to your place in the next two days." Du Wei Zhengzheng said: "I attach great importance to this matter, this matter to us It ’s also very important! So for the time being, you should focus most of your energy on this matter, and keep the confidentiality work good. Are the animal trainers we found reliable?
"Reliable." Little Zach smiled: "That manor is now closed, no one is allowed in and out at will, and no news will spread. And Mr. Hussein is also sitting there, I believe no one can run out under his eyes. "
"Well, let our air knight reserve knights get in touch with the little griffins. Taming starts with the cubs, and the knights need to contact their mounts early."
After Du Wei talked about a few other things, he let little Zach leave.
"Brother."
After Zac's departure, Gabri looked at Dewey's expression, and seemed to stop talking.
A few months of military camp, Gabri looks stronger and has a darker complexion. However, the waist plate is straight and has quite a bit of martial arts style.
"What do you want to say?"
"Why keep secrets?" Gabri puzzled: "If the griffins can become the mounts of the air cavalry ... then we do n’t report this to the empire, is it a little bad? I mean, this thing in the future It has to be disclosed. At that time, will the empire think that we deliberately concealed this event? "
"I've surrendered a lot of things." Du Wei sighed: "The Northwest Independent Division, I surrendered. In recent years, I have poured a lot of gold coins to subsidize the Empire's finances. There is gunpowder, although the formula I did not hand over But now it is open to supply the imperial army ... There are not many secret weapons in our hands. Gabri. To ensure the status of the family, we must have a few big killers. Griffon troops, not yet formed, are still Under construction. The reason I do n’t take it out is, first. I do n’t think it ’s good to disclose it now. I do n’t mind letting the royal family know, but ... God knows how many church eyes there are in the royal palace! I just want to Keep this thing out of the church. As for the second ... I also want to remind our great regent, just let him know that I, Du Wei, can come up with some new tricks. Nonstop creation A miracle to make useful new valuable things! This way he can continue to value our family. If one day he feels that our family has been squeezed out by him, there is no new land With the value of the ...... Well, you think about it. "
"But the Regent seems to trust you."
"But ... he is not emperor." Du Wei sighed.
He stood up, walked to the door of the house, closed the door forcefully, and looked at his brother: "Gabri. I always have a hunch. I can't say any reason for this, nor Somehow, but ... "
"What do you want to say? Brother?"
"Is the regent and our new emperor, charlie."
Du Weidi's face was very serious. He closed his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head vigorously: "I don't know how to say it. This is a very strange feeling. I had a contact with this little emperor Charles Time. When I was his teacher, I always felt ... this child. It seems that when I grow up, I am not a wise monarch! "
"What?" Gabri's guess at his brother was a little strange.
Everyone in the empire is talking about Emperor Charles. In the aristocratic circle, most people who can reach the royal family think that this little Charlie, although still very young, is very smart, very wise, and small. He has shown considerable wisdom at a young age.
"Do you remember the" miracle "thing I made on the square that day, and then the regent announced the news of the death of the old emperor in public, announcing the death of the throne?" Du Wei suddenly laughed. Smiled.
He stared at his brother: "Gabri, before that day, our regent had quietly told him to calm down and told him that something would happen, although I do n’t know how the regent and his son Speaking. How much ... But that day Charlie was too calm! Even ... I was standing not far from him, and I could feel that he had a faint ... desire! "
Du Wei waved his hand vigorously: "He is very clever and precociously a child. But you think about it ... a child in his early tenth yearning for the throne so early ... not kind!"
"Children always have a child temper." Gabri smiled: "When I was young, when you were a child, didn't you have a temperament like a showy child?"
"No, this is not a temperament-loving child." Du Wei sighed and described his mood carefully: "That is the desire! The desire for status and power! I really doubt that such a boy, where does he come from? Ambition. Of course, the word ambition is not appropriate. But there is one more detail ... "
Du Wei ’s expression seemed to change a little, and there was a quirky flash in his eyes, and he whispered, “I told you, the old emperor died a few months ago! The news has been hidden ... and then , I have been a teacher of Charlie in the palace for a long time! Of course, I don't know the news about the death of the old emperor. I did n’t know before. But ... "
Du Wei seemed to smile: "If a normal child, a ten-year-old child, heard about his grandfather's death, even if he grows precocious and clever, but from the perspective of conscience, at least he should show a trace Sad? Even if Augustine VI was not very close to the regent, but any grandfather would be nice to his grandson. But ... no matter when I was with him a few months ago as his teacher, After the transfer, I also went to the palace to see him a few times ... but this child has never shown even the slightest memory of his grandfather. "
Du Wei said here, and he sneered first: "Don't tell me what this child is clever and so on ... This is not a matter of being clever or not, but whether the nature is good! When it comes to being clever, that person Princess Karina, in terms of talent, is smarter than Emperor Charlie. The little girl is the only little genius I have ever seen. But ... I have seen the little girl twice before, and she showed a sorrow of losing her grandfather. ... but Her Majesty Charles, still laughing and joking, should ride horses, and play. "
"Brother, do you mean ..."
"I mean, our new emperor ... inhuman!"
