My Magic Age
Chapter 1568 118. Don't be cannon fodder
The Imperial Council Hall, located at No. 9 Royal Street in the first block, is a building with a history of hundreds of years. This building is adjacent to the Duke's Palace on the shores of Weiyang Lake.
The Magic Caravan drove straight from Yulin Street to Lakeside Avenue, and drove north along the Lakeside Continent for twenty minutes before arriving. This is an oval-shaped building that looks like a water park. If you look down from the sky, the Imperial City Council Hall looks more like It is a gladiatorial arena with a dome. The square in front of the Imperial Capital Council Hall is flat and wide. Even if hundreds of magic caravans are parked here, it will not look crowded.
The magic caravan carried me to the entrance of the Imperial Capital Parliament Hall, where Count Lionel Falconer and a group of his friends were already waiting at the entrance of the parliament hall.
As the fourth batch of troops to support the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj, although their army stayed in the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj for less than two months, this did not prevent them from sharing the fruits of victory. Since Duke Billy Babington approved They also allowed their combined legion to pass through the portal in San Carlos City, which represented the recognition of the fact that this legion supported the multi-dimensional planes of Ahn'Qiraj.
This group of young nobles gathered on the stone steps in front of the Imperial Capital Council Hall. Some of them sat side by side on the white jade railings of the steps. They were talking and laughing and seemed to be in a good mood. The young nobles were dressed in gorgeous dresses and wore necklaces on the front of their chests. The exquisite family crest and title badges waved to me from a distance when they saw me stepping off the magic caravan. The early morning sunlight came from behind them, making me squint my eyes and put up a canopy on my forehead. , I took a deep breath and stepped up the long stone steps.
In order to highlight the solemnity of the imperial capital's parliament hall, the stone steps in front of the parliament hall were built very long.
At this time, many nobles had gathered in the square in front of the parliament hall, and there were also many nobles strolling along the long steps.
Some nobles wore traditional linen robes, held golden scepters in their hands, and wore gold headbands on their heads. They climbed the steps. The nobles along the way gave way.
Count Lionel Falconer walked out from the crowd, walked towards me, pulled me to the side of the stone steps, avoiding the group of nobles holding golden scepters, and led me to face those The nobles performed the noble hand-holding ceremony and waited for the group of nobles to pass in front of us. Then he whispered to me: "These people are all members of the Imperial Capital Council Hall. Although they usually have little reputation, they are in the Imperial Capital." They all have very high status here, so try not to mess with them.”
"Why did Billy Babington hold a meeting in the Imperial City Council Hall?" I asked Lionel.
At this time, the young people behind him gathered to greet me.
Lionel Falconer stood beside me and explained to me: "After the victory in the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj, due to the large number of participating legions, each legion took a long time to enter the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj. Different people have made different contributions to the multi-dimensional war of Ahn'Qiraj. In order to avoid unnecessary disputes, Duke Billy Babington decided to hand over the distribution of benefits after the victory of the multi-dimensional war of Ahn'Qiraj to the Imperial Capital Council. Hall ruling.”
A young nobleman with a full beard said with a look of dissatisfaction and some gloating: "Huh! No matter who is asked to make the decision, this time the Babington family will inevitably give up some resources from the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj. "
A pale young noble next to him couldn't help but said: "It seems to me that His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charlie is interested in the five major mithril mines in the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj."
"Hush! How dare you say such a thing!" The bearded young nobleman grabbed him and shouted in a low voice.
Lionel Falconer said to the white-faced young noble: "In the Ahn'Qiraj multi-dimensional war, our group of people are fighting at the back, whether it is the commander of the Aix Army, the leader of the Moh family, Young Master, who among those in the group like Louis Mensah sent troops to the multi-dimensional Ahn'Qiraj for the sake of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles? If your words fall into the ears of these big shots, the one above you will be held accountable. I can’t even protect you.”
The bearded young noble also nodded repeatedly and said: "I also heard our old man say this. Originally, the Mo Army wanted to march into the Loqi plane together with the Nanfeng Army. In the end, I don't know how. In the end, he went directly to the multiple planes of Ahn'Qiraj."
As soon as the topic started, other young people chimed in one after another. Everyone gathered on the stone steps, but no one came to our side.
Count Lionel Falconer said: "Actually, there are some other factors involved. If His Royal Highness Crown Prince Charles had not led the Royal Constructed Knights to enter the multi-dimensional Angela, the mithril market in the Green Empire would probably It won’t stabilize so quickly.”
At this time, someone in the crowd said: "Hey, the door to the parliament hall is open. Let's leave quickly. When the big shots arrive later, we will inevitably have to salute them."
We looked up, and sure enough, those members holding golden scepters walked to the door of the parliament hall, and the door was pushed open from the inside. After those members walked in one after another, the door of the parliament hall did not follow. Instead, some guards walked out of the council chamber and stood in front of the door.
The guards in the imperial capital all like to wear metal armor, which is somewhat different from us people in the north. Most of the guards in El City wear some light leather armor with a fur coat on top, so that even if they wear It is very thick, but it does not affect the flexibility of the body. The guards of the imperial capital wear a metal armor in winter, and they must have thick warm clothes underneath, so that their walking looks like robots. .
Among these young nobles, some young nobles are very curious about me, because it was Zach who brought me into this circle before, so the topic will also start here.
The young nobleman with a beard asked me curiously: "Marquis Jijia, I heard that you and Zach met during the Hierro plane war?"
I think he must have come from the Northern Province, but I don’t remember him introducing himself before. I smiled and said to him, “Please call me Jijia. Zach and I actually met in the imperial capital last winter. I remember that Zach and Ernestine were sent to the Imperial Capital from the Hierro plane for treatment. A good friend of mine worked in the Campbell Nursing Home, and I got to know Zach through that.”
There are probably many young nobles who want to know how Zach and I met, so I will give such a detailed explanation:
"Last summer, our academy encountered the Niburu Spider-Man when we were doing plane training on the Hiero Plane. Later we returned to the Imperial Capital, but some of my followers chose to stay in the Hiero Plane. Speaking of which, I He was also forced to get involved in the Hierro plane war. Later, Zach and Ernestine The Hierro plane organized a counterattack, and I was lucky enough to participate. Although the process was difficult, the outcome was not bad. In this plane war, we united with the local aboriginals to defeat the Niburu spider people, and I I also obtained the black magic crystal and magic herbs from the local aborigines, haha.”
After hearing what I said, the group of young nobles all showed envy. Some even blurted out and asked, "Are those black magic crystals?"
I knew he was referring to the unidentified black magic crystals I sold them, and I nodded: "That's right!"
In fact, almost everyone in the Imperial City was not very optimistic about the war on the Hiero Plane. And because the resources on the Hiero Plane were limited, they could not attract the attention of the large lords with heavy troops. The small lords in the Imperial Capital were all They did not dare to bet their chips on the Hierro plane, so Zach and Ernestine came to the imperial capital several times to ask for help but returned empty-handed. At that time, no one thought that the Hierro plane would actually win a game. A perfect victory.
This victory not only completely turned over the Duke of Samoyed and the lords of Durva Province, but the huge profits also made many small lords in the imperial capital salivate.
Zach and Ernestine were instantly famous among the young nobles of the imperial capital. Although they could not compare with the likes of the Prince of Wales and the Mo family, they were still regarded as outstanding generals among the younger generation of the Green Empire. .
When these young nobles heard that I actually participated in the war on the Hierro plane, they all praised me:
"Jijia, you are so lucky."
The young nobleman with a beard sneered and said:
"If you really think it's his luck, you're making a mistake!"
Other young nobles asked curiously: "Unel, do you know other inside stories?"
At this time, a group of us had already reached the main entrance of the parliament hall. The guards at the door stood up to stop us. Lionel Falconer went out and negotiated with the guards for a while, and then they all showed our noble badges. , walked into the Imperial City Council Hall without verification. The female clerk at the front desk of the Imperial City Council Hall led a group of us into a hall that looked like an opera house. Our seats were in the most inconspicuous position at the back.
When everyone sat down, they didn't forget to tease the waitress at the front desk. The young nobles were a little arrogant, but this was also the energy of young people.
He has a big beard and a big chin. When he smiles, his lower jaw protrudes forward and looks like a dustpan, but his teeth are very white. Just listen to him say: "Do you remember the wedding that caused a sensation in the imperial capital at the Coming of Age Ceremony last year?" ?”
The young nobles gathered together and said all at once: "Is he the young magician who was selected by His Highness Qi Ge and Princess Ying Li at the same time?"
I quickly admitted: "Yes, I am that magician."
The envious eyes turned into Chi Guoguo's jealousy. Unexpectedly, marrying Qi Ge turned out to be a public enemy.
The bearded man gave me an ambiguous smile, and then said: "Do you remember that Duke Ryan's lover was snatched away by a magician from the Royal Academy of Magic last year?"
Someone in the crowd of young nobles actually stood up from his chair, pointed at me and said, "Is he the magician who stole Duke Ryan's lover?"
Lionel Falconer answered for me at this time: "Yes, he is the magic student. Didn't you see Mrs. Alia the last time we met?"
Someone immediately complained: "At that time, we were all immersed in the joy of the plane war and did not notice this at all..."
Another young noble said: "When Zach introduced Marquis Jijia, I thought he was an arms dealer in the imperial capital. Since it was Zach who introduced him, his identity was not verified... "
Then the topic gradually turned to the war on the Ahn'Qirado plane. These young nobles began to talk about the topography, customs and people of the Ahn'Qirado plane. I listened carefully. However, when the Babington family was operating the Ahn'Qirado plane, they captured a large number of natives as slaves to mine. The natives in the central area of the Green Empire's occupied area died or migrated. They had never seen the natives of the Ahn'Qirado plane.
While we were chatting, some nobles walked into the parliament hall one after another, and they all found seats to sit down.
Soon, more than half of the seats in the conference hall were filled with nobles. On the long curved table on the stage were some councilors holding golden scepters. There were some materials in front of them, and these councilors in linen robes were also discussing with each other.
...
"Hey! Jijia."
Just as I was quietly listening to the young nobles telling stories about the Ahn'Qirado plane, I suddenly heard a familiar voice.
I turned around and found that Mo Xiang was standing near the back row at the entrance of the council hall, smiling at me.
"Mo Xiang, long time no see, why are you here too?" I greeted the young master of the Mo family.
In the past six months, he and I went from hostility to indifference. Later, because of Lord Bruce's mediation, our relationship gradually became friendly. He needed my single-attribute giant crossbow arrows, and I needed him to help me get krypton gold. After dealing with each other a few times, we became friends.
Mo Xiang was wearing a gorgeous dress, and a group of Mo family members stood behind him. Everyone's eyes were on us. He said to me: "Yes, Billy handed over the right to distribute the interests of the Ahn'Qirado plane to the Imperial Capital Council Hall. If I wasn't there, I probably wouldn't get much of this cake. The Mo Legion has been stationed in Ahn'Qirado for nearly a year. I hope the distribution of the members of the Council Hall will satisfy me."
Then, he waved to the group of men and asked them to go to the front, and he walked to my side instead.
Lionel Falconer immediately gave up the seat next to me. Mo Xiang sat down without any hesitation and asked me, "Tell me about yourself. The distribution of benefits from the Ahn'Qirado Plane War has nothing to do with you, right? Why are you here?"
I rubbed my nose and explained to Mo Xiang:
"It actually has something to do with me. You know that although I have been promoted to a marquis, I don't have any territory except the town of Trum in the Yerro Plane. In this Ahn'Qirado Plane War, as a member of the logistics department of the fourth support group, I provided some single-attribute giant crossbow arrows to the Ahn'Qirado battlefield, so I am also here to receive the fruits of victory."
Mo Xiang asked me in surprise, "Are you saying that you are going to expand your territory on the Ahn'Qirado Plane?"
"Duke Billy said that if he agreed to the distribution of benefits this time, the Babington family could give up the land that belongs to the Babington family in the "Four Three Three Treaty". I think this is quite good." I said to him.
Mo Xiang frowned slightly, paused for a moment and then said: "Hey, Ji Jia, you have to think about this carefully. Those Nakma people are only temporarily retreating strategically. They will come back soon. Don't become cannon fodder in that strategic buffer zone..."
