Chapter 240 Chapter 238: Collapse of the Alliance (Last month's monthly ticket 1900 plus more)

Behind the magic mirror, Mage Timo put his hands on the magic mirror, frowned slightly, and looked a little unhappy.

A fourth-order natural disaster cannot be said to be superior to kings and princes, but it can also interact with them on an equal footing.

If you really get upset, the worst that can happen is you just walk away. No nobleman would chase you down or anything like that. That would be irresponsible for your own life.

Therefore, Master Timo did not like the commanding tone of Marquis Carlisle.

Moreover, everyone present actually knew one thing: it was useless to contact each other.

The reason is simple. Even if the allies have achieved results, they cannot solve the current problem.

Far water cannot quench a nearby fire, that’s what it means!

In fact, if the news really spread, Luo Yi would only fight harder and kill more people.

There was no other way. He had to compensate for the losses in other places from the Carlisle family.

In other words, it is extremely unwise to contact them in this situation.

But looking at the Marquis Carlisle who had already fallen into madness, the Pale Knight on the side slowly shook his head at him, as if explaining everything.

Finally, Master Timo took action. With the help of the magic mirror, he tried to contact the Castro family, the McKinley family and the Mist Pirates.

Strangely enough, all three companies responded within a very short time!

However, when the news was actually announced, there was silence, deathly silence!

The edge of a magnificent forest.

The Castro family army marched here, and how magnificent it was to see an entire group of fully armed knights.

But when they got here, they were blocked by several people.

There weren't many people coming, only seven or eight, but they were all floating in the air.

Some spread their fighting spirit wings, some used flying techniques, and some simply sat cross-legged on the magic carpet.

They didn't say anything either, just watched quietly with calm expressions.

They had their backs to a magnificent forest, with trees swaying behind them, as if it were just the wind, but also as if they were hiding countless enemies.

Seeing this scene, Marquis Sean Castro's face turned extremely ugly. He was silent for a moment and finally drove his horse forward.

When he reached the center, he took a deep breath and said, "Floyd, I know you are here. Come out and see me!"

"What does it matter if you know it or not, Sean, you guys really went too far this time!"

Seven or eight people made way, and an old man walked out. He held a cane in his hand, stepped in the air, and walked forward as if he were walking on flat ground.

Until they got close, the two men looked at each other, as if there was an invisible energy clash, and murderous intent was in the air.

The old man looked at Marquis Castro and said, "Sean, there are some things that cannot be made exceptions, because if there is a first time, there will be a second time.

You are trying to dismember the Flower Territory, but have you ever considered that when your Castro family runs out of successors and loses its strength, will it be dismembered by other nobles?"

"You broke the rules. Maybe the Lion Family is the one suffering now, but what about the next one? Have you ever thought that it might be you?"

Sean Castro seemed to have heard something ridiculous. He tilted his head, looked at the old man, and said, "Marquis Floyd, we all agree that you are the least knowledgeable about the ways of the world and the least fond of the intrigues of the nobility.

But now, now, you are actually trying to reason with me?

What an amazing feeling!"

Marquis Floyd's expression froze, but he still said, "This is what Grand Duchess Afra told me!"

"Afra, Aphra, you're just a woman, why are you so convinced?"

"Do you look down on women, or do you look down on Aphra Norman? Do you dare to say this to Aphra?

Or, can I convey it to you?"

Marquis Castro's face darkened, but he was unwilling to argue and said, "I brought a powerful knight group that cannot be stopped by a few of you.

So, be smart and leave immediately before you ruin the atmosphere!"

Marquis Floyd was not afraid at all, and said: “You can force the fact, although there is a 50% chance that no one will ambush me in the Rose Forest.

But the other half is possible, I have set a trap inside, waiting for you to fall into it."

"If you have the guts, come on, okay?"

As he said this, he led his men back and eventually disappeared into the magnificent forest.

Only Sean Castro was left standing in the distance with a conflicted look on his face.

He was actually very confident that there were no ambushes in the magnificent forest because there was no time left.

But he still didn't want to gamble, nor did he dare to gamble!

The Freud family are a group of geniuses. Whether it is fighting spirit or magic, they have amazing talents.

However, there is a saying that genius and madness are only one step away!

Who knows what crazy things these lunatics will do?

What if, just what if, they insisted on intervening?

Then the Castro family will face huge losses, and by then, the conflicts in the principality will be completely intensified. Is it really worth it?

When people start to hesitate, they lose their decisiveness, especially smart people. In the end, although Sean Castro did not retreat, he never moved forward.

The situation here is still good, but on the other side, the situation is on the verge of breaking out.

Moonlight Castle.

This is one of the roads from the McKinley family's territory to the Raymond family.

At some point, the McKinley family's army had gathered here and was preparing to enter the Flower Territory, but was surrounded by the Knights who had caught up with them.

It was the Kingdom Knights who came, hundreds of earth dragons carrying their knights approaching.

Even if the dragon's might is indifferent, it can accumulate into a large force like a river, and the threatening growl makes the warhorses on the opposite side restless.

Marquis Ricardo McKinley, known as the 'Silver Fox,' had a grim expression on his face. He looked at one of the dragon riders and practically roared, "Estelle, what are you doing?"

"Sir Ricardo, before I answer your question, can I ask you a question?

Why did you, Marquis McKinley, bring the family knights to this Moonlight Castle?

Ricardo argued cunningly, "I just organized a hunt to train the bravery of my vassals and knights, isn't that okay?"

Estelle also smiled and said, "My Kingdom's Knights are the protectors of the Principality. It's reasonable for us to appear anywhere in the Principality, isn't it?"

"Estelle! Don't forget that the Earth Dragon Knights are supported by the entire duchy, not the Norman family.

So, it’s better not to get involved in some things.”

Marquis McKinley said this, and then said: "That's enough. You can lead the team back and complete the mission. As for us, just pretend you didn't see us."

Estelle smiled indifferently: “I think it’s okay, but it’s useless for you to tell me.

You have to tell her!"

Having said this, Estelle drove her mount to the side, and all the ground dragon knights also made way for her.

Then a luxurious carriage passed through the passage formed by the ground dragon knights and came closer.

Grand Duchess Aphra’s voice came from it: “Richard, compared to those two, you are a smart person.

So, I’ll give you a word!”

"What?"

"Get back here, or you'll face the consequences!"

On the Silver Sea.

Davis, the leader of the Mist Pirates, has been a little annoyed recently because things are not going smoothly.

Not to mention the Siren Port, with the Mage Tower and the fourth-level water disaster mage, it is already unbreakable.

So he sent pirates ashore to burn, kill and loot!

This time, things didn't go so smoothly.

Because when the pirates come ashore, they lose their home advantage and their strength is greatly reduced.

Moreover, because of the methods of the Great Knight Thor, the people of Flower Territory realized the brutality of pirates.

The result is that after the pirates come ashore, any person they encounter will be reported.

Then, it was Grand Knight Thor who led his men to hunt down, kill, and even hang the captured pirates on the coastline.

After a while, the pirates became afraid and were even less willing to go ashore.

The result was a stalemate!

But this stalemate is not good for the pirates, because Davis knows clearly that as long as the war in Frost Moon Canyon is over.

Regardless of whether the Raymond family wins or the Marquis of Carlisle gains the upper hand, they have to deal with these restless pirates.

So, these days, he has been looking for ways to break the deadlock.

But I have lost so many brain cells, but I still have no inspiration.

Just as Davis was thinking hard, a crew member came closer and shouted: "Captain, Captain Davis, we found a merchant ship passing by, and it seems to be going to Siren Port.

Should we rob them?"

"Of course! All pirates, move! Quick! Move!"

When the order was given, the pirate ships around were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Davis also went on deck and looked from a distance. He saw three merchant ships running around like headless flies!

He shouted excitedly, kept giving orders, and chased and intercepted!

But just when the task was completed, a loud bang was heard.

However, an ironclad ship with a silvery glow all over its body appeared in everyone's sight, and it stretched out black gun barrels and fired directly.

In an instant, the pirate ship was blown to pieces!

Davis was also anxious at this moment. He roared loudly: "Emden, Emden, how dare you attack me for no reason outside the territory of the empire?"

On the ironclad ship, an elderly general with silver hair grinned and said, "Davis, don't talk nonsense!

We are not doing this for no reason, we are providing escort!"

"These three merchant ships are all loaded with goods traded between us and the Raymond family. They are escorted by the Emden. What's wrong? Is it not possible?"

"But you, Davis, dared to rob an imperial ship in broad daylight.

You are disregarding the dignity of the Habsburg Empire and the honor of the navy. As an escort ship, isn't it my duty to attack you?"

Now, it was Davis' turn to be dumbfounded? !

That’s right, this is the solution that Luo Yi and the imperial ambassador discussed.

It is naturally not possible for the empire to intervene directly, as this will easily escalate the situation and provoke the sensitive nerves of other empires.

However, the Empire and the Raymond Family have a deal, so isn't it reasonable to send some goods?

But if they were robbed by pirates at this time, then no one would be able to say anything if the imperial ironclad warship took action!

Here are three updates. I want to start a burst of activity tomorrow and make up for it as soon as possible!
