My Magic Age

Chapter 1533 83. News that dare not be announced

Count Conrad has always seemed very busy when delivering giant crossbow arrows the last few times. The secretaries who usually sleep on chairs with their feet up in the office room of the Logistics Department are nowhere to be seen. The giant crossbow arrowheads that arrived in the warehouse of the Logistics Department can only be piled in the waiting area. Without the signatures of the clerks, they are not officially stored in the warehouse. I feel that the atmosphere of the entire South Wind Army is a bit strange.

It wasn't until I attended the private ball held by Marquis Ludwig Aston that I heard a piece of news from a group of noble lords chatting: On the day of the Harvest Festival, Prince of Wales led the Constructed Knights in Los Angeles. The port of Hughes Zora in its plane annihilated Luo Qi A Naqma legion on the plane. This victory means that the legions of the Green Empire on the Lochi plane have officially gained an advantage. The Nakma legion will shrink the deployment of troops in the interior and gather all the Nakma people. In the mountains to the northwest of the Luoqi plane.

News about this victory has not been released, and the noble lords have different opinions. Most of the lords believe that after the third force entered the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj, the news of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles' victory in the multi-dimensional war of Ahn'Qiraj was delayed. It did not reach the imperial capital. Under such circumstances, , Once the news of Prince of Wales’s victory in the Battle of Hughes Zola Port in the Loki Plane is announced to the public, the reputation of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles will inevitably be affected. In view of this consideration, Prince of Wales in the Loki Plane The news of victory in the war was suppressed by the imperial military.

I held a glass of golden cider and sat on a set of soft leather sofas at the edge of the ball venue. I looked at Alia dancing with Margrave Ludwig Aston on the dance floor. Alia on the dance floor was filled with new vitality. , like a forest elf dancing alone in the heart of a flower, Margrave Ludwig held one hand behind his back and gracefully held Alia's four fingers as white as green onion with his right hand, with a smile on his face. An aristocratic smile, showing the gentlemanly demeanor inherent in his bones.

At last year's coming-of-age ceremony, I and Ying Li quietly held a wedding without guests or blessings. Although Prince James and Mrs. Mandal acquiesced, they never got the approval of the Angel Boulder royal family. I I originally thought it was because I didn't have enough status, but now that I think about it carefully, it's clear that Prince James didn't want me to get caught up in the royal family's dispute too early.

I took a gentle sip of the golden apple cider. The sour taste had a hint of bitterness, and sighed softly. After all, I still couldn't understand James's mind!

But speaking of it, marrying Ying Li means that I have a very clear royal label. No matter what Prince Wales thinks of me, we can only turn enemies into friends now.

Betty stood behind me, holding a plate of exquisite food in front of me. At this time, a middle-aged aristocratic couple nodded to me from a distance, and I responded with a smile. Unexpectedly, the couple The noble couple walked directly towards me, and I didn't recognize them at all.

Just when I was a little troubled and didn't know what to say first after meeting, Betty bent down slightly and whispered in my ear: "This is Marquis Andy Haldane, he is Palai A great lord in the province of Stina, he has a good relationship with your friend, the Marquis Louis de Mensah. Please stay with him. It is his lover Lady Lois. This Lady Lois is the wife of the late Duke Orion, but it is said that she has moved out of the Orion family. The mother of the new Duke Orion has a lot of grudges with this Lady Lois. "Shen, if you want to make friends with Duke Orion, you shouldn't get too close to Mrs. Lois."

"..."

I glanced at Betty and saw her lowering her eyelids and her curved eyelashes trembling slightly as she approached me. I didn't expect that she had such a strong memory.

Marquis Haldane strode over, and I quickly stood up from the soft leather sofa, saluted him and Mrs. Lois, and said first: "Good evening, Marquis Andy Haldane, I didn't expect to see you here. you."

"Good evening, Marquis of Guiga, I often hear your name from Louis, and I finally have a chance to meet you today. I didn't expect that you would be promoted to a marquis at such a young age. Think about it, when I was your age, I was still a senior official in the province of Bena. Learn martial arts in the Swordsman Academy..."

After chatting with Marquis Haldane for a while, we didn't talk about anything substantive.

When the music stopped and Aaliya came back from the dance floor with her skirt in one hand, Marquis Haldane took Mrs. Lois's hand and left. Mrs. Lois gave me a serious look before leaving. The charming eyes that only mature women have always have a unique charm.

"Stay away from that woman. Haldane failed to catch the war train of Marquis Louis Mensah this time, probably because of the influence of this woman." Aaliya walked back with her skirt in hand, her first sentence Just put it bluntly.

Marquis Ludwig Aston was communicating with other lords on the dance floor. When the music started, a noble immediately walked up to Alia and extended his hand to invite her to dance. However, this noble did not say hello to me. , he seemed to know Aaliya, and praised her directly: "Mrs. Aaliya, long time no see, you are still so young and beautiful!"

The nobleman was dressed very young, wearing the military uniform of a knight. He exuded the aura of a second-level strong man. He stared at Aaliya with a friendly smile. His figure showed a classic inverted triangle shape. His broad shoulders looked like he possessed explosive power, and he wore an earl's badge and a senior knight's badge on his chest, as well as a row of unknown medals of honor.

"Good evening, Count Joel, have you just returned to the imperial capital after participating in the plane war?" Aria raised her head and glanced at the knight in front of her, smiling politely.

"Well, I just returned to the Imperial City for a vacation last week from the aspect of Marquis Ludwig Aston. This time I will rest in the Imperial Capital for about two months." The noble knight blushed slightly and said a little embarrassed. Said to Aaliya.

"Are you participating in a plane war?" Aaliya blinked, her eyes seemed to be full of curiosity.

Earl Joel seemed to have only Aria in his eyes. He opened his hands to Aria and said in a pretentious manner: "Plane wars are breaking out frequently everywhere these days. The position of Marquis Ludwig Aston is... The current situation is relatively good. We have not been invaded by dark forces. However, there are often some members of the Black Magic Hermitage secretly building demon summoning gates. These guys who like to hide in the sewers of the imperial capital don't know how to infiltrate into our location. The surface cannot be cleaned no matter what method is used..."

Seeing him chattering a lot, Aria didn't show any impatience on her face, but her arm inadvertently held my arm, her whole body pressed against mine, and she smiled at Earl Joel. language.

Earl Joel seemed to have noticed me at this moment, and he was stunned for a moment before asking Aaliya: "Who is this...?"

I extended my hand to him and said, "Jijia, it's nice to meet you."

Earl Joel looked at me with some surprise, stretched out his hand to shake my hand, his palm was wide and big, and it was clear that he was full of strength, but when he shook his hand, I just felt his stability and firmness, and his eyes dropped. On the badge worn on my dress, my eyes were a little dull, and I said: "Well, Jijia... Marquis, nice to meet... you!"

He unconsciously used honorifics when speaking to me.

He looked at Aaliya and then at me, as if he had figured something out. There was some embarrassment in his eyes, and he said helplessly: "By the way, there are people waiting for me to drink over there. Let’s talk again later.”

After saying that, without waiting for me to say goodbye to him, he turned around and left quickly, disappearing into the noisy dance.

I also tried to find his back on the lively dance floor, but I didn't expect him to leave so simply, as if he had never appeared at the dance.

"I'm actually very charming, aren't I?" Aaliya smiled at me and said.

"I never deny this. I like your confident smile." I couldn't help but reach out and pinch her white face, and said to her with a smile.

"Tch! The last thing I want to hear is your compliment!"

Aaliya rolled her eyes at me, pulled me to sit on the soft leather sofa, forked a piece of foie gras from the plate in front of me and put it into her mouth gracefully. In order to wear this long dress with waist, she She had hardly eaten anything since noon and only drank some milk. Now she seemed to be starving, but with the girdle around, she still couldn't eat anything. She only ate one piece and then forced herself to stop. .

After taking a sip of golden cider, Alia cheered up and said to me: "Okay, I just heard the news that the third assistance group of Louis Mensa's new Constructed Knights is in Ahn'Qiraj. Facing the defeat in the first battle, they were slapped loudly by the Naqma people who were stationed in the mountains. "

I didn't expect Aria to actually bring back such news. Isn't the entire Imperial City or the Green Empire waiting for the news of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charlie's victory in the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj? How come the third support army team that rushed up actually faced the Naqma people directly and lost the first battle? This is not good news!

I raised my head and looked at Aaliya and asked her, "Um, how could this happen?"

Aaliyah shook her head, indicating that she did not understand the news in depth. She pointed to the group of noble lords chatting across the dance floor and said to me: "A few lords over there are discussing this matter. Do you want to know more details?" If so, I will introduce you to them..."

Although I wanted to go over and listen to what they were talking about, I finally held back and said to Aaliya: "Forget it, if something really happens, Lewis should write back."

It has been almost forty days since Louis Mensah led ten newly formed knights into the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj. Every ten days I will send a batch of canned luncheon meat, meat floss bricks, and single-attribute giant crossbow arrows. The military supplies including this were delivered to the Emerald Bay Trading Company on time. In addition, I also provided Louis with a box of high-quality healing potions. During this period, Louis wrote a letter to Noah from the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj, describing some things about the multi-dimensional war in Ahn'Qiraj.

Noah happily told me at that time that after the Construct Knights led by Louis arrived in the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj, they were assigned the task of garrisoning a mithril mine near the front line for the convenience of the Commander of the Akers Corps. Leading the legion under his command can withdraw from the defense of the mine and once again enter the multi-dimensional frontline battlefield of Ahn'Qiraj as the second main echelon.

Unexpectedly, news of the defeat of Louis' support army would come so quickly. The reason why this kind of thing spread so quickly is because the entire imperial capital is paying attention to them, waiting for news of the victory of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles, but now... it seems The first battle was a disaster.

In fact, when Louis wanted to go to Anchirado to help His Royal Highness, Charles, Noah and I had advised Louis to summon the Mensa family's Construct Knights. Now that the war in the Mensa family plane is not too intense, it is still possible to draw some elite Construct Knights. But at that time, Louis wanted to build his own private army and did not listen to my and Noah's suggestions.

Speaking of which, most of the Anchirado plane is in the mountains, with few plains and swamps. The five major mithril mines of the Babington family are between the mountains.

The Loki plane is just the opposite. The Loki plane has half of the ocean and one side of the land. There are also many rivers on the land part, and there are countless inland lakes. Only in the northwest of the Loki plane are there rolling mountains. This time, the Nakma people suffered a great loss at the hands of Prince Wales. All the Nakma people in the Loki plane gathered in the northwest mountainous area. Obviously, the Nakma people are still very confident in their ability to fight in the mountains.

The third support army entered the Anchirado plane and directly exchanged positions with the commander of the Ex army. This was an extremely risky move.

Moreover, the direct army of the Mo family did not gain any advantage in the Anchirado plane before. The eldest son of the Mo family, Mo Xiang, returned to the imperial capital several times to seek more powerful supplies. Now that I think about it, the Mo army has been stationed in the Wala Valley of the Kenda plane for many years to fight against the demons. It is known as the strongest army in the empire outside the two major armies in the north and south. However, the Mo army's fighting style in the Anchirado plane is still very conservative, which is enough to show how powerful the Nakma people in the Anchirado plane are.

"What are you thinking about?" Seeing me sitting on the sofa in silence, Alia leaned on me and asked me.

I sighed softly, thinking that the royal family would never give up His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles. The only solution is to continue to increase troops.

Thinking of this, I said to Alia, "I'm thinking that perhaps the Fourth Legion to reinforce the Ahn'Qirado plane is already being formed."

"Is the situation over there really that bad?" Alia asked in a lost voice, covering her mouth with her hand while speaking.

I shook my head and said, "That's not the case. It's just that many lords in the imperial capital can't wait to go to the Ahn'Qirado plane to get a piece of the pie. If this news is concealed, many lords will definitely rush to jump into this war quagmire. It's just that it's not easy to gain benefits in that big quagmire..."
