The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

Chapter 278 Changes in the Situation

I tore open the sealed letter, only to find that it was the highest-level contract seal. There was a magic seal inscribed with beeswax on the gray envelope. If someone other than the recipient opened the letter, the letter inside would either be destroyed directly or explode. .

"Evenly? I haven't heard of it. Well, you haven't told us either."

Although Xiaohong couldn't help shaking her head, there was a smile in her eyes. Although dragons generally disdain to lie, according to my understanding of her, this expression should be waiting to see the excitement, and there is no point in asking.

Then, without hesitation, I tore open the letter a little bit, put it on the table beside me, and then stood near the door, and opened it remotely with icy hands... I am really shrewd, if the bomb disposal experts in that world have My hand will not be affected by the bomb and sacrificed.

"Pfft, hahahaha!"

Directly ignoring the belly-laughing female dragon watching the excitement behind her back, I don’t know why, when I saw Yi Wenli, a name that tends to be pronounced in Elvish, my scalp was numb, as if my instinct told me that it was a trouble , it is better to be cautious.

In order to avoid being overshadowed, I carefully hid behind the door, and the arm made of ice in the room dissipated at the same time as the letter was opened, and then...

"Amusing me? Nothing happened!"

There is no sudden flashing white light, no banshee ghost howling suddenly, no explosion, not even flying green or white powder, at least a death curse must be installed, this threatening letter has not even installed a single trap , is simply too unprofessional.

"Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter, what are you doing? Use your face to poke the grass? Use your feet to step on a trap?"

All right. Let us continue to ignore the female dragon rolling on the ground laughing behind her. Pick up the letter. It was just a few simple words.

"Ancient elf language? There are still people using it in this era. Let me think about how to pronounce it."

The letter is written in distorted tadpole script. It is normal to use Dragon Language and Human Common Language, but what does it mean to use this language that only exists in the ancient elven empire? Could it be that Yi Wenli is an archaeologist?

The handwriting on it is very graceful and beautiful, and it is obviously written by a woman. But the content on it is endless and incomprehensible.

"...Do you still dare to come back?"

Say this in a low voice,

The grammar is correct, but why I don't understand it, is this a complaint?

And as soon as the voice fell, the letter paper suddenly lit up white, and then...

"Damn it! It's actually a starter word!"

"Boom!"

Sure enough, the letter exploded. The explosion was not powerful, but it emitted a strange smoke. After the smoke dissipated. I've got a bunch of blue paint on it.

"Ahem, you actually deliberately used the tongue-twisting ancient elf language to lure me into reading out detonating key words. How wicked! Cough cough cough."

I don't know what the trap was made of, even the coughed up dust is blue. The only good thing is that I can probably feel that this is not a poisonous trap.

"Hahaha! Sure enough!"

The female dragon behind was already rolling on the ground laughing, she seemed to have expected it.

What followed was a sudden flash of light in the sky outside the house. It seemed that something had left inexplicably as the letter was opened. The designer of the mechanism already knew that the letter had been activated.

At the same time that I became a Smurf, a small pendant fell to the ground, and the heart-shaped sapphire on it was emitting a cool brilliance, just like moonlight.

Seeing this posture, I probably know that this is just the beginning, and troubles are probably waiting behind.

"With such a highly targeted arrangement, it's hard to believe anyone who isn't an acquaintance..."

----------

Even though I still didn't remember who it was, I became even more worried. This arrangement was obviously aimed at me, someone I was familiar with, but I didn't remember it at all.

It’s nothing to have no memory at all. After several reincarnations, I have forgotten the same things, but there is no record in my diary library, which is very abnormal.

After much deliberation, there are only two possibilities, either I hadn’t started to keep a diary at that time... This can basically be rejected, or those past events are memories that I hope to forget, so I deliberately didn’t record them. Expect to be completely forgotten in one reincarnation.

"Well, if I can't remember it, I won't. Since it's something I decided to forget, it's obviously better not to remember it."

I quite suddenly put this little episode behind me, but it turned out that Xiaohong, who was going to watch me lively, was a little upset.

"You live a very free and easy life. If you can't remember it, you don't think about it? This attitude towards life is really enviable. You don't have to worry about what troubles will be waiting for you if you can't remember it."

"... I can't help it if I can't remember it. Besides, if that person will come to cause trouble. Even if I remember it, it will not cause trouble, but it will only increase trouble. Since it is the enemy, when the time comes, the soldiers will block the water. Just come to the earth to cover up. Isn't it an 'old acquaintance'? If an old acquaintance who wants my head wants to line up, they can line up from here to the West Coast. Who am I afraid of."

Even so, I secretly strengthened the security of the surrounding rooms. Of course, it was not completely used to guard against unknown threats.

When a new day comes, I also feel a little relieved. Although the dragon knights show great respect to Lilith, and most knights are hard-headed diehards, but in an enemy situation, many things still need to be added. Be careful and take precautions, which are also essential.

And with the exchanges with each other, I did get the most lacking information about the Bayer Empire. The news of the local lords is too late, no more than the dragon knights can receive news from the capital every day.

Oros, the hero of the generation, is still alive and well. Today's Bayer Empire is naturally still under the control of Oros, but the surface is calm, and the private undercurrents continue. With the aging of the old emperor, the situation in Bayer's country is becoming more and more complicated. .

In name, the emperor is naturally still supreme, but I am afraid that everyone is looking forward to his death, especially the dozen or so righteous princes. Don't look at each of them as innocent. In fact, there are a lot of forces under his command. Waiting for the old emperor to inherit the great power after his death, of course, there is still no one who dares to intervene in the military forces now, well, there is no such thing on the surface, but the source families of the prince's wives seem to be developing there.

Not to mention the local lords, the conflict between centralization and local lords can never be resolved, and it is a custom for the eldest son of each lord to grow up in the capital. Although it is indeed an extremely effective method of hostage control, it also deepens the gap between the two.

This rule has been implemented for twenty years. The first batch of eldest sons of the lords have grown into adults, but very few returned to the territory to inherit the position of the lord. The second son who is not in the capital.

No second son? Just another one. And when the second son becomes the lord, he will not be so friendly to the elder brother who has the legal right of succession. We have not seen a few cases of welcoming the return of the orthodox heir.

The royal family has always been high pressure. A lot of grievances have been caused, since the grievances have accumulated. Sooner or later there will be a rebound day.

I am afraid that after the death of the emperor, no matter who will be in power, there will be no absolute authority to suppress the group of lords to rebound. It can be said that due to the strong centralization of power, the local lords have behaved with their tails between their tails for the past twenty years. I hope that the mountain that is pressing on my head will collapse as soon as possible so that it can rise again.

From this alliance with the undead, it can be seen that the contradictions within the Bayer Empire are not small. Although the emperor used his authority to suppress the opposition of most nobles, since no consensus was reached, internal differences also emerged early. up.

The most intense, apart from the factions of the True God Church that directly broke up, is probably the Royal Mage.

From the day the news was announced, the chief court mage Winster directly asked for sick leave, and the court mages also began to retreat and study magic. If it was a little more relaxed, it was probably that the Dragon Rider Grand Duke and the Dragon Knights left collectively.

The dragon knights of Helent expressed their dissatisfaction with the emperor in their own way, but on the western border, the dragon knights who were still loyal to the emperor were about to go to the battlefield and launch a retaliatory attack against the kingdom of mages.

The identities of Dragonborn knights are very special. First of all, many of them are half-dragons, and they have the identities of dragons and humans at the same time. However, they grew up in the human empire most of the time. In terms of their own status, as knights, since the monarch has issued a mobilization for war, their participation in the war is reasonable.

But if possible, I don't expect to see a war between superpowers, especially the kingdom of mages and I are inextricably linked.

Combined with the weird system task that requires me to choose to improve the reputation of the Kingdom of Mage or the Beyer Empire, I am afraid that when the shadow of war between the two countries is doomed to be inevitable, I will have to choose a side.

I'm close enough to make a guess. When I went to the Cloud Tower to accept the so-called main mission, most of them would choose sides and join the war.

"If it's possible, I really don't want to let the dragon knight participate in the battle. Let the war escalate now. The undead invasion has already happened. The longer it is delayed and the more prepared it is, the greater our chances of winning. The high-end combat power of the two countries is like this If you throw it in, it will probably only benefit the undead who will come sooner or later."

I'm not only thinking about these, it's a pity to just give up the Bayer Empire to the undead emperors, and since the domestic situation in Bayer is unstable, if it drags on, the situation may change, such as It is said that the old emperor passed away suddenly, and it is very likely that the newly appointed king will turn his face against the undead.

[Congratulations to the host for triggering the branch plot: preventing the Dragon Knights from participating in this meaningless war. 】

[Task requirements: Try to delay the time for the Dragon Knights to enter the war. If the extension exceeds three months, this task will be completed. 】

[Task Reward: Clues to Molly, the front dragon and the queen. Mission failure penalty: Xiaohong's anger. System prompt: Why don't you just continue to do branch work without doing business, want points? no way! 】

It seems that as long as the two countries are within the scope of the main plot of the war, these small sub-plots can be triggered. Although there are no points, according to the usual practice, if you want to do a good job in the big main plot, none of these small details can be left behind. Victory into big victory is the safest way to attack.

It is worth mentioning that although we reminded the countries that the undead were about to invade, we received a lot of blank stares, but when the undead really came, although the countries were still pretending to be deaf and dumb on the surface, we also got a lot of private complaints. contact, hoping to get relevant information and help.

Of course, I am speaking seriously. All the historical undead invasion points have been pointed out. As for whether there will be any changes in the future, it is none of my business.

"Historically" the Bayer Empire was the biggest invasion point. After the undead invasion took place, the super empire Bayer suddenly perished within three months. This is undoubtedly an unbelievable thing, but the information collected now After sorting it out, there was no lack of internal and external troubles at all, and I suddenly felt that being able to survive for three months was already very remarkable.

There is no detailed record of what happened to the Dragon Knights in history, but it is recorded that a large number of bone dragons appeared after the Bayer Empire was invaded... If it is deduced according to the current situation, even if the Dragon Knights did not fall On the battlefield of the kingdom of mages, they will not be able to survive the difficulty of the undead invasion later, and it is entirely predictable that they will all fall in the end.

But at this time, it is not easy to stop the dragon knight. After all, we are foreigners, and there is even a vague hostile relationship. Even if Lilith comes forward to dissuade, it is completely unknown how effective it will be. At that time, as long as Emperor Oros issued an order to conquer, Helent and the others had no reason to refuse if they did not want to treason.

"...Especially now that they are still under the righteousness of counterattack and revenge, it is impossible to stop them, unless we can prove that the emperor has gone crazy, or has committed a crime that seriously violates their knight concepts."

But when I thought of this, I laughed, crimes and so on, didn't they already exist.

"Cazorla's tears, what a good evidence. It seems that I went to talk to Helent. By the way, the reason why the dragon knight joined the battle was to take revenge on the forbidden curse. I feel that this incident is not the kingdom of mages. style, let’s look it up first.” (To be continued..)
