Re-becoming a human being from Conan
Chapter 958 Markusia Kingdom
The political system of the Eastern Empire is complex and the aristocratic structure is diverse, but because it is a country that aspires to hegemony, force is king after all.
Headed by the emperor Rudra, the mysterious marshal who often accompanies the emperor, the 100-man guard knights who protect the emperor and perform certain special tasks, and then the three generals and the three imperial legions they lead.
These three legions are the mecha legion whose main force is mechanical soldiers, the monster legion that captures monsters and monsters, and the mixed legion that accommodates many visitors from other worlds and alternative guys.
Generally speaking, the generals who lead these three legions are all saints or above. Their powerful combat power and long lifespan often allow them to stay in office for decades, but not long ago, the marshal in charge of the mixed legion was replaced.
It was Yuuki Kagurazaka.
In a luxurious office, Yuuki was leaning over his desk looking at the world map.
There are three routes from the Eastern Empire to the Western Kingdoms. In the north, there is a dangerous route through the Dwarf Kingdom. In the middle, you have to cross the vast Jura Forest. In the south, you have to cross the former Clayman Territory, Milim Territory, Beast Kingdom, and the former Sky Queen Frey's territory.
So among these three routes, the southern territory is basically excluded, because there is no need to provoke Milim for no reason. Originally, the vast forest in the middle was definitely the most suitable for marching, but now the establishment of Tempest and the emergence of skill merchants have made it dangerous.
So can we only go through the Dwarf Kingdom?
Yuuki originally thought so, but he just got other news.
The Empire chose the fourth route!
His finger slid down from the Demon King's territory to the south, across the sea and connected to a small coastal country in the southernmost direction of the Western Kingdoms.
The order he received was to secretly select a few elites, follow Master Gadora to the Markshua Kingdom, build a safe passage enough to transport the army, and directly attack the West!
Even the Dwarf Kingdom didn't leave. Yuuki could only get one answer - it was too close to the Monster Kingdom and was an ally of the Monster Kingdom. The Empire was worried that the Monster Kingdom would send reinforcements.
How could they be so afraid?
Not of Demon King Rimuru or Storm Dragon, but of Skill Merchant Ji Xing.
You should know that the seas of this world are extremely dangerous. Not only are there frequent storms, but there are also various huge monsters. Even if the saints escort, there are often dangers.
Masayuki drew a route with his fingers and pondered for a moment. There was a knock on the door.
Three people came in, all of them belonged to the mixed legion, and they were all elite summoners who had awakened their unique skills.
The first one was Shinji Tanimura, who was originally a college student in Japan and stayed in the laboratory every day. After coming to this world, he also loved to wear white clothes, which has now become his unique mark.
The second one was Mark Roland, who had brown hair and a lot of muscles. He is about 25 years old, the oldest among the three. He wears a tank top and jeans even in winter, which makes him look very healthy.
The third person is a teenager named Shen Longxing. He braids his black hair into a pigtail and hangs it behind his back. He wears loose Chinese clothes, but he is not Chinese.
They were not taken in by the Eastern Empire from the beginning. They were recommended by Yushu through the three underground giants of the Eastern Empire under his command. They have always been Yushu's team.
They agreed with Yuuki's ambition and trusted him, so they were respectful to him, "Master Yuuki, do you have a mission for us?"
"Great, let's move around, we're exhausted from training all day."
"Yeah..."
"There is indeed a big mission this time." Yuuki nodded and asked the three people, "Do you know the Markshua Kingdom?"
"...What's the tooth repair?"
The three were a little confused. Shen Longxing thought for a long time before hesitating, "Is it the port country bordering the Magic Dynasty Sarion?"
Yuuki nodded in approval, "Your geography grades are indeed the best."
Shen Longxing smiled embarrassedly, "It's just because that country is a rare country with rich and diverse seafood, and I prefer to eat fish."
"Hey, speaking of fish, I heard that there is a seafood restaurant opened by a skilled merchant in the Monster Kingdom. Some of the precious fish are even caught by the Demon King Shivana herself in the deep sea. I wonder if there is a chance to eat it..." Shinji said with a longing look on his face.
Roland still remembered the business: "So our mission this time is related to that small country?"
"You can also eat fresh sea fish there, right?" Shinji said with some anticipation.
Yuuki shook his head helplessly: "Don't just remember to eat first. Although that small country is inconspicuous among the Western countries, it also has some extra characteristics.
It is a poor small country where magicians are respected. The economy brought by magicians barely maintains food and clothing. Even though it is poor, the people are not hungry. In addition, there is a magic tower standing in the sea that only appears on the night of the new moon. The king's capital of that kingdom is called the City of Sages."
"It sounds good...?"
"The Empire has already figured out the specific situation. Here are three pieces of information. You must memorize them before you set off." Yuuki handed them three documents and said: "Your mission this time is to control the royal family of that country and cooperate with Master Gadora to establish a stable transmission channel there."
"Cooperate with grandpa?"
"The transmission channel means..."
"Ah, the Empire is going to build it into a frontier position for attacking the West." Yuuki said.
"Position?"
"Where to start?"
"Is there a war coming?!"
The three of them were surprised when another old figure walked in. His face was full of vicissitudes and time, but his figure was healthy, as if he was in his prime.
"So I chose you three." Gedora said: "This task is very difficult. Do you have confidence?"
"No." Shinji said decisively: "Even in a small country, the top swordsmen and magicians are always A-level or above. How can we control the entire kingdom with just us?! We have to rely on you, grandpa, you shouldn't Ask us, but ask yourself if you have faith.”
"Now that I know what I'm doing, I can rest assured." Gedora said with a smile: "You are just assistants, in other words, you are just minions. There is someone else who will lead the mission this time."
Shinji's eyes twitched, this old man is still like this, his words are irritating, and he is very unreliable. You can't fall into his provocation, otherwise you will be in trouble.
Yushu lowered his head and said in greeting: "Master Gaidora, you are here."
This is a famous figure in the empire, a magic master who has lived for two thousand years. He has influenced many people during the formation of the empire's mixed army. Even Yuuki, who is now a general, still needs to respect Gaidora.
Gaidora nodded to him, walked to the table, looked at the map, and stared at a location, his old eyes gradually darkened.
Damn Luminas, I will be able to avenge my friends soon!
And this scene happened ten days ago when the Demon Kingdom Federation learned that the empire was mobilizing troops.
…
Marcius, the city of wise men.
Silas sat in the deserted Free Guild branch with some worry.
The Free Guild branch in a small country is naturally a small branch, but half a year ago, it was quite lively here. Magic potions in the mountains and tonics and huge monsters in the ocean are the targets of adventurers who are willing to risk their lives. But since the underground labyrinth in the Monster Kingdom was opened and the news spread, more and more adventurers have escaped. past.
Silas wanted to go, too, but couldn't.
Because he is the great prince of this kingdom.
He had no magic talent, and in a kingdom that respected magicians, he naturally lost the qualification to inherit the throne, and his younger brother became the crown prince of the country.
He has no grudges and doesn't want to fight, but he wants to do something for the country.
The barriers from the magic tower and magic envoys only protected the core area of the kingdom. The periphery was still often attacked by monsters, so he mingled in the free guild, recruiting various adventurers to become his subordinates, and silently guarding the country.
However, he chose a very unique method of recruiting his subordinates - pretending to be a gangster and provoking.
As long as a new face appears, his subordinates will act like they are the boss and they will tease or tease them according to their gender, intensifying the conflict.
The weak ones should be handled with care, and the strong ones should be taken under their control. Adventurers generally respect the strong and will not feel too much resentment after losing.
As for the miss? Never.
After all, he is the prince of a kingdom, and he is accompanied by Grave, the strongest swordsman of the Kingdom's Knights, an adventurer with a level of A level.
In such a remote and small country, it is difficult to find someone who can surpass Grave's level.
Well, let alone finding an adventurer that surpasses Grave, there are not even any new faces. I am tired of seeing these old faces in the guild.
Silas was thinking boredly, and at this moment, he suddenly saw three strange figures walking in from the guild gate.
After being stunned for two seconds, he perked up.
"Hello……"
He whispered to remind the yellow-haired boy to pay attention, and the people around him became energetic.
This is really a completely unfamiliar face that I haven't seen in a long time. It seems that their appearance and aura are not weak, and their 'crafts' are not unfamiliar either.
The yellow-haired boy said: "Oh my, it's rare to see new people, but you don't think you're handsome in this white dress, do you? You dress like someone who has just died in the family."
"Hahahahaha, that's right!"
"Hey, the sword on your shoulder looks good? Is your family rich? It's not easy to be an adventurer. Be careful of getting into the monster's belly!"
The three of them, Furumura Shinji, looked at each other in confusion.
"My mouth really stinks."
"Is this our goal?"
"Come on, don't feel guilty anymore."
Their voices were undisguised, and Silas and the others immediately sensed that something was wrong. Grave's expression became even more serious, and he stepped forward.
"You said 'target'? Who are you? Do you know the identity of our young master?!"
"Hmm...the eldest prince of this kingdom?" Shinji asked tentatively. Looking at the other person's reaction, he knew that he had found the wrong person.
What's there to say? Let's do it!
As summoners with unique skills, each of them is at the A level, and they are also the type of A level who are good at fighting.
Greif was no match for any of them in a one-on-one fight, let alone one against three. Even if other people in the guild came to help the prince, they were all knocked to the ground in three blows.
He couldn't even cover Silas's escape. Within seconds of the battle, Silas was pinned to the ground by Shen Longxing with one hand and unable to move.
Seeing everyone being knocked down, Silas struggled and said, "You, who are you?! Assassins from the enemy country?!"
"Assassin? The assassin has already killed you. Don't struggle. That's a good thing." Shinji smiled.
Become the stepping stone for the empire to attack the West. Are you afraid that there will be no reward after the empire unifies the west?
He looked around and confirmed that everyone was unconscious and no one could go out to report the news. He looked back at Silas with satisfaction, and suddenly he was startled and turned his head back to the guild's "bar".
"Hey..." He said with a serious face: "When did that guy sit there?"
Shen Longxing and Roland were both stunned, and even Silas struggled to look up. He saw that a young man had appeared behind the bar at some point, and was reading some free guild intelligence consultation belonging to this kingdom.
"Are you sure..."
"This guy looks like a big boss." Shinji sighed for a long time.
"That's right, he suddenly appeared there without any surprise." Roland said cautiously: "Is it the magician in the magic tower in the intelligence? Sent by the king to secretly protect this talentless prince?"
"No, I'm here to travel, you continue, let me see what you want to do?" Ji Xing raised his head and greeted them.
"...Tourists?"
"Even if they are tourists, I can only apologize. Our actions must be kept secret for the time being... Eh? Shen Longxing, why does this guy look so familiar to me? Shinji, have you seen him?"
"..."
"..."
"Ji, Ji, Ji, Ji Ji...?!"
Silas was a little disappointed. Sure enough, it was impossible that he was sent by my father to protect me. The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.
...
"The Empire disdains to use some despicable threats. I just hope you can cooperate and save us some trouble."
"Don't be lucky. You actually value your eldest son very much. He doesn't have the talent of a magician, but he just happened to escape the fate of the kingdom being controlled by the magic tower, right?"
The king sat there on the throne with a pale face. Prince Helios, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned and looked up at the king.
What did they say?
"What did you do to Silas?!" the king said angrily.
"Nothing." Qiu spread his hands and smiled: "As long as you cooperate with us honestly, nothing will happen to anyone, and the country will become much richer and stronger than before."
Bonnie on the side also nodded and said: "You are not worthy of the empire's deception."
Since the identity of the spy was exposed by Ji Xing, they have gone through a dark time after returning to the empire. Although no one dared to pursue the responsibility of them as single digits, they themselves felt ashamed.
Now that they were sent to perform such an important task, they were deeply moved by the emperor's tolerance.
Looking at the king who was gradually surrendering, they looked at each other and shook their heads.
This task was really too simple.
