Chapter 277: Killing the Chicken to Scare the Monkey (400 monthly tickets plus more)
Lion Manor.
"Loyi, Loyi, are you okay? Are you hurt? Where are you hurt?"
Just as Luo Yi relaxed, a figure pounced in front of him.
Lilia pulled Luo Yi and looked him up and down, fearing that he was injured.
Luo Yi quickly showed himself, moved his hands and feet casually, and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine!
At most, I'll just use up my fighting spirit and lose some energy, and I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
Although he said so, a magic scarecrow was scattered all over the ground behind him.
Alfonso Zeke was also smart and rushed forward to help cover it up.
At this moment, Otto finally spoke: "This Grand Duke Carlisle really has no manners at all. He is so unscrupulous!"
Iron Knight Phil said, "But this is the confidence of the Grand Duke of the Empire. Look at him on this trip. Not counting him, he is accompanied by seven fourth-level natural disasters.
In the entire duchy, I'm afraid only the Norman family can make him feel a little bit intimidated!"
Otto continued, "The question is, what is his purpose in coming here? To deliver the war reparations, the two hundred thousand Bonaparte gold shields?
To be honest, I really didn't expect him to be so willing to give 200,000 gold shields?
Luo Yi finally spoke: "That was because he felt that he no longer had an absolute advantage, so he took a step back.
Two hundred thousand gold shields, is that a lot for the Grand Duke of the Empire?"
"So, he came here to resolve the Carlisle family's issue?"
Luo Yi nodded slowly: “The Bonaparte Empire needs the Norman Duchy to have constant civil unrest and disputes, so the Carlisle family cannot be in chaos.
The Grand Duke came here to intimidate those with ulterior motives and to ensure the status of the Carlisle family.
The reason he passed by us was because, in his opinion, solving the Raymond family was equivalent to solving all the problems, and no one would dare to intervene. "
"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey. We have become the chicken that is looked down upon!"
As he said this, Luo Yi seemed to have thought of something and immediately said, "Hoover, Butler Hoover?"
"I am here!"
"Notify Alan Wells and ask him to keep a low profile. Our Raymond family will not be involved in the subsequent affairs of the Marquis of Carlisle."
"Notify the Archduchess of Normandy, my mother, and explain clearly that the Grand Duke of Carlisle is coming so that she can prepare."
After a pause, Roy continued, "Let's inform Earl Wick one last time. This old guy can still cause some trouble for the Carlisle family. We can't just let him go!"
"yes!"
Butler Hoover responded, turned around and left to make arrangements.
This news is too important. An imperial grand duke brings seven fourth-level people into the Norman Duchy. It is no exaggeration to say that it is like a "dragon crossing the river"!
If it is not handled properly, countless people will suffer and countless families will be in trouble.
Luo Yi looked at Oliveira and smiled, "Teacher Oliveira, congratulations on achieving the natural disaster!"
Oliveira didn't show any expression, just nodded slowly and asked, "What about this time?"
"What else can we do? Just remember this! As the saying goes, revenge is never too late. We have plenty of opportunities!"
“Just don’t forget it!”
"Forgot? Am I that kind of person? Okay, okay, let's all go home. It's late, time to go back to bed."
"yes!"
Although they said they were going back to sleep, Luo Yi couldn't sleep at all. He led Lilia directly to the top floor of the Mage Tower.
Here, His Holiness Saint Bartholomew is busy with a set of machinery.
With Luo Yi's eyes, it was not difficult to determine that it was a milling machine, and it already had a preliminary outline.
And this Saint Bartholomew has a "levitation technique" that can make steel ingots float in the air.
Then he used the 'scorching ray' to cut up and down, removing the edges and corners and making it into the shape of a gear.
It is also polished with the "quicksand technique" to make the edges and corners relatively shiny, so that they fit better.
Even Luo Yi, a layman, felt a strange sense of fluency. The effortless casting of the spell was truly enviable.
Luo Yi came closer, bowed respectfully, and said, "Thank you for your help tonight, Your Majesty.
I won't say thank you, if there's anything you can do for me, just ask me directly."
His Majesty Bartholomew paused, tilted his head slightly, looked at Luo Yi, and asked, "Do you think I took action because I wanted to gain something from this?"
Luo Yi shook his head in denial and added, "Your Majesty, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that even a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring.
Tonight, you helped me stop not only those three wizards, but also Grand Duke Carlisle, and saved countless people.
So if there's anything I can do, I'd love to!"
His Majesty Bartholomew was very pleased to hear this. He tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "You should know that I have everything I need!
However, your designs and concepts are very interesting. If possible, please design more of these magical machines. I look forward to your creations."
"This is what I'm going to do, don't worry."
"That's it, I won't bother you anymore."
Luo Yi bowed slightly again, saluted, turned around and left, his steps still steady.
However, Lilia did not leave. Instead, she walked to His Majesty Saint Bartholomew, sat down slowly, and stared blankly.
His Holiness Saint Bartholomew was busy for a long time, but she didn't say anything. He couldn't help but ask, "Lilia, little girl, what's wrong with you?"
"I feel so weak and incompetent. I have a mage tower, but I can't help at all!"
Lilia looked up at Saint Bartholomew and said, "Can you teach me how to be strong?"
His Holiness Saint Bartholomew couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Why should I teach you?"
Lilia suddenly stood up, holding up the hem of her skirt, slightly bent her knees, and said, "Based on this, you will be my teacher from now on!
Isn't it a teacher's job to teach apprentices?"
"Hehehe, it's very difficult to become my apprentice!"
"It's okay, I'll try my best."
"Why don't you lend a hand? You've been watching for so long and you don't know how to help. You really have no sense at all."
"Oh oh oh, here I come."
…
On the other side,
In mid-air, on the moon spaceship.
Grand Duke Carlisle casually tore his gentleman's suit into pieces, revealing his fat upper body.
A thin sword mark appeared on the chest, but it only broke the skin, without damaging even the fascia under the skin.
But the Grand Duke stroked the scar carefully, feeling the pain, and the brutality on his face could no longer be suppressed.
“Damn it!”
He suddenly stood up and kicked the coffee table in front of him.
Solid wood furniture is usually very strong, but under this kick, it shattered into pieces, like a bullet, shooting in all directions.
That is to say, only when there are strong people around can one be fearless, but even so, the defense spell of the moon spaceship was activated, and the barriers were shattered one after another under the wood chips.
At this moment, Duke Carlisle was like a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Even though everyone present was at the fourth level, they were all silent.
Only the Pale Knight, who was old enough, spoke up at this time: "Grand Duke, you actually had a chance to kill him?
At that time, Luo Yi was already at the end of his strength!"
"Kill? How?"
Grand Duke Carlisle glanced sideways and saw that it was the Pale Knight, and the anger on his face subsided slightly.
But his voice was still filled with anger: "Under the watchful eyes of the public, the Grand Duke of the Empire personally took action to eliminate a powerful earl of the principality in the manner of an assassin.
Do you really think the Carlisle family is the Church of the Sun God, or the Bonaparte family, capable of covering the sky with one hand?"
"To secretly eliminate the Lion Castle, it took the combined efforts of so many major forces, and they did it silently, not daring to leak even the slightest bit.
Especially now?"
"I never came here with the intention of killing him. I just came here with strong men to force him to admit his mistakes!"
“As long as we deal with the Raymond family and this troublemaker, no one will dare to make trouble.
I just didn't expect that so many people, so many powerful people, couldn't take him down."
At this point, he was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Actually, before, I had the intention to kill him. This illegitimate child is too talented.
No, it can no longer be considered a talent, but he is already a powerful person."
"Then why?"
"His Majesty from the Habsburg Empire has already taken action. Do you think he will just sit back and watch me kill people?
If he were to intervene directly, it could potentially turn into a conflict between the two empires, something no one could tolerate!"
The Pale Knight was still a little unwilling: "What about now? If we just leave it alone, I'm afraid this new lion will not give up if he grows up!"
"I won't give up either! Black Mist..."
"I am here!"
The one who agreed was the assassin in the red cloak:
"When we get back, send your most elite spies to Xianhualing to help me keep an eye on his every move!
I believe we will have a chance.”
…
at this time,
Auxerre city.
The Grand Duchess handed the paper to the old Marquis Floyd and said, "Would you like to take a look too?"
Old Marquis Floyd took it, glanced at it, and his expression changed drastically: "He actually came in person?"
"This is our Grand Duke Carlisle. He never plays by the rules."
"So what about us now?"
"Now that he's here, let him take over. Even if he supports a new marquis, it will take time for him to control the family, and even more time to compete with us.
We have achieved our goal.”
"You're just giving up like that, Aphra? Are you really not unwilling to give up?"
"Marquis Floyd, you actually don't understand one thing. My goal has never been to defeat the Carlisle family.
Although it would be better if it collapsed, if that doesn’t happen, maintaining balance is also a good option.”
"These things are so annoying, and I'm not good at them, so you just make the decision.
Aphra, now, there is only one thing you have to tell me: what should we do?"
"Of course, we need to summon enough powerful fourth-level natural disaster warriors to prepare for the arrival of the Grand Duke of the Empire!"
I feel like I can’t update enough chapters now, crying!
