Traveling to another world, inheriting a mess at the beginning

Keliya did not go to Gulin Town to investigate again.

After carefully dressing up, she took Xia Ye and Kulan directly back to Booker City - the most dangerous place is the safest place, because there are a lot of mercenaries gathered here, so it is quite easy to get in.

"That old guy must not have thought that I would come back here... Anyway, let's start investigating these mercenaries first."

After putting on a hooded robe and holding a wooden stick, Keliya looked like a gloomy magician.

Xia Ye casually changed into a common light armor and played the role of a foreign mercenary, which was rare but not uncommon.

Of course, Xia Ye was very dissatisfied with this set of clothes without any aesthetic sense.

"Boss, I just asked. Most of the mercenaries here are still doing the task of hunting monsters. Those mercenaries who tried to attack us did not accept the task here."

"The thing I saw in Gulin Town before... Is it important?"

"Miss Liya, I have read the previous analysis report. Duke Booker is probably making a biological furnace core that can provide psychic energy for a long time. Although it cannot run forever, it is enough to keep a warship running in the air for three months."

In order not to reveal his identity, Xia Ye also deliberately changed the name of Keliya.

After the disguise, the three did not attract the attention of others, so Kulan quickly found out the movements of the mercenaries-the thing that Duke Booker was making was not yet completed, so the mercenaries were still looking for monsters to hunt everywhere.

But Duke Booker had endless magic source stones in his hands, so why did he make such a thing?

"...I always have a bad feeling."

"Boss, you take a rest here first, I will go to the place near the Duke's Mansion to inquire."

Although some places may make people feel a little regretful, Kuran is quite capable in most aspects.

With just a few simple conversations, he can cleverly find out a lot of information - if the communication is a little deeper, he can even find out the details of the other party.

So Xia Ye threw all the investigation work to him without hesitation.

"Sister Xia Ye, what do you think Duke Booker is going to do?"

"You confirmed before that he would not betray the empire, so he is probably wary of the person who intends to betray. In my opinion, the traitor hiding in the dark may have begun to waver."

Because Keliya publicly declared that Duke Booker was a traitor before, even if people did not think that Duke Booker would really betray, they would pay attention to such a possibility.

And the real traitor who has been hiding in the dark will definitely feel the pressure.

"In other words, should we actually consider secretly supporting Duke Booker?"

"My personal suggestion is to wait until they really start fighting, and then eliminate all threats in one fell swoop."

——The hidden traitor is of course the biggest threat, but it is time for Duke Booker to withdraw from the stage of history.

"Because Duke Booker controls the supply of magic source stones in the empire, whether it is a traitor or an external enemy, if they want to gain an advantage, they need to control this territory."

As long as the magic source stone veins here are controlled, an inexhaustible supply of energy can be obtained-so this territory must never fall into the hands of any enemy.

"Although my husband trusts that bastard Moro quite a lot...but I always feel that he is a traitor."

"On this point, let's trust the young master's judgment for the time being."

No one knows what purpose Duke Oufei has in intervening in this matter, but Xia Ye does not think he is a rebel.

Because she trusts Aarons' judgment more.

...

Not long after, Kulan, who went to investigate the situation, hurried back.

"Something big has happened, big boss. Duke Booker seems to be preparing to put the entire dukedom into full war readiness. I heard from people related to the dukedom that it might start soon."

"War readiness? We are not that threatening to him yet--"

Just when Claire was about to learn more details, a harsh radio test sound suddenly spread throughout the city.

[--Good afternoon, fellow citizens. I believe you all know who I am by my voice, so I won't introduce myself. ]

Duke Booker's voice came from the magic radio set up on the street, causing everyone on the street to stop.

[I have something important to tell you--I believe you all know that I was unreasonably accused a few days ago. ]

[I don't want to explain too much about this matter, because some people have already determined that I am a sinner, so there is no point in explaining it. ]

[But the old manI don't intend to sit and wait for death with a non-existent crime, so I decided to use a relatively simple way to prove my innocence. 】

Keliya didn't know what Duke Booker was going to do, but she had a very bad premonition in her heart.

——This Duke might really do something unpredictable.

[Now the external enemies of the empire are ready to move in the south, and the internal threats have already shown their fangs to me. So I decided to face these enemies head-on-from today, the entire dukedom will enter a state of emergency! 】

[In one hour, most areas in the dukedom will uniformly begin to spread free psychic energy of level 4. Since all magic facilities except indoors will be affected, please stay indoors as much as possible. 】

[After the psychic energy covers the entire territory, I will send special forces to attack the evil party that is invading the dukedom and completely eliminate the real threat to the empire! 】

Listening to the slightly crazy voice of Duke Booker, Keliya even lost the ability to think for a while.

Spreading psychic energy throughout the dukedom? Doing so will not only affect the magic equipment that uses psychic energy, but will also make all combat professionals lose their combat effectiveness!

Duke Booker actually has such a plan!

"Oh no, we have to go back quickly--"

[Princess, I know you are in my city. If you don't want to die, surrender or run away quickly... If you still insist on being my enemy, then I can only destroy you as well. 】

My whereabouts were also known by Duke Booker? !

Because Xia Ye patted Claire's shoulder in time, she recovered from her dazed state.

"Your Highness, I think the situation is serious now... Duke Booker is not planning to deal with you. He is probably doing this because..."

"-- Duke Booker's real enemy has already taken action, right?"

The handsome and sharp-minded mercenary leader grasped the key point of the problem in an instant.
