Chapter 122 Don’t be too narrow-minded, plan a big business abroad
The moonlight shines down unobstructed.
The fountain in the center of the courtyard made a clear sound with the surging water, and emitted a faint silver color against the backdrop of the night.
The entire courtyard environment is somewhat quiet at this moment.
Lenas stood quietly beside Tang Zheng, with a look of relaxation between her brows.
Imina stood not far away, leaning against the statue, with a hint of embarrassment on her face. She felt that under the current circumstances, it was not appropriate for her to stay here.
The sight of Renas swearing allegiance just now still shocked Imina.
Before, she thought there was no problem staying here, but now, she felt like she had suddenly become an outsider.
Imina glanced at Tang Zheng, who was thinking about something, and then cast her amber eyes at the entire exposed face of Lenas.
Is it because of this reason?
This thought flashed through Imina's mind. Renas' situation was no secret in the empire.
As if she noticed Imina's gaze, Lenas turned sideways and nodded at Imina.
The thoughts and ideas between the two women.
Tang Zheng didn't care about it now. Lenas' sudden loyalty was completely unexpected, but it made an idea that had been suppressed in his mind come to his mind again.
Build a force!
Tang Zheng had indeed had this idea before, but it was just an idea.
Except he didn't have the manpower.
Most importantly, even if there were enough manpower, how big a force could be built in four years? Even if there was a buffer period of about a year after the arrival of the "Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick", it would still make no difference.
His opponents are not the local forces of this world.
Even a huge underground force like the "Eight Fingers" that spanned an entire country was instantly destroyed the moment it came into contact with the great tomb.
Underground forces?
This is not a game of house.
Don't be too narrow-minded! Tang Zheng knew very well what could help him in the future.
When Bone King still had persecution mania, and wanted to show off his power by arbitrarily slaughtering hundreds of thousands of people to prove it, and also wanted to show his benevolence and kindness, these human weaknesses still existed.
The only thing that can provide him with support and barely allow him to compete with the Big Tomb is the national level!
The atmosphere was briefly quiet.
"What was the outcome of this year's war between the Kingdom of Re-Estize and the Bahas Empire?"
Tang Zheng suddenly spoke.
Lenas opened her lips subconsciously, but soon froze because she was not paying attention to this aspect.
"The situation in the Kingdom of Re-Yestije is a bit bad."
Imina's calm voice came from the side, "It's not the autumn harvest season yet. Although it's unclear why the empire suddenly started a war."
"But it also caused heavy losses to the border garrison of the Kingdom of Li Yestijie."
Renas raised her head and looked at Imina with her deep blue eyes, with surprise in her eyes.
She hadn't expected that a half-elf, and a solitary worker at that, would pay attention to the Empire's war.
"There is no Adventurer's Guild to provide intelligence support."
"As a worker, you can only collect intelligence on your own, so any information has a certain value." Imina turned her head and spoke coldly.
Tang Zheng nodded, thoughtfully.
There were only two events that left a deep impression on him between the Kingdom of Re-Yestige and the Bahas Empire before the story began.
One was the appearance of Gazef, the future “Warrior Captain”, during this year’s Imperial Trial.
One was that two years later, Gazef single-handedly killed two of the Empire's "Four Knights" on a border battlefield. It was at that time that Lenas was chosen by the Blood Emperor to become one of the new Four Knights.
These two things don't seem to have a clear connection, but there is actually a clear thread between them.
This year the kingdom suffered heavy losses and the empire won great victories.
Two years later, it is impossible for the Blood Emperor to suddenly send two of the "Four Horsemen" to join the battlefield for no apparent reason.
That is, something must have happened in the autumn of the next year that caused great losses to the empire.
"Lenas, you can't keep the fact that you exterminated two noble families a secret for long."
Tang Zheng looked at Lenas helplessly.
Originally, Renas relied on the power of the Blood Emperor to solve the problems of her own family and her fiancé's family, but now she has to solve it on her own.
These are two different concepts.
It was only a matter of time before suspicion would fall on Renas. Given the Blood Emperor's character, such a challenge to his power would inevitably lead to a wanted warrant.
"I'm sorry to cause trouble to you, my Lord."
Renas also realized this, her pale cheeks looked a little ugly, and she bit her lips.
Sudden!
Renas turned around abruptly and looked at Imina who was standing not far away.
"Hey, Don!"
Imina was startled, and immediately spread her hands, took a step back, and showed a stiff smile on her face: "Are you still recruiting adventurers?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
She had realized that what she had just said was not suitable for an outsider like her to hear.
Familiar words rang out.
A strange look appeared in Renas's deep blue eyes.
"Sorry, we're not hiring."
Tang Zheng still shook his head as before, "However, there is a big business going abroad. Do you want to take it?"
"Answer it!" Imina said immediately, "Sir." There was doubt in Renas' eyes.
"It doesn't matter."
Tang Zheng smiled and said indifferently, "Your affairs cannot be concealed in the first place, and I don't plan to stay in the Bahas Empire for a long time."
He was actually quite interested in Imina, not because of her appearance, but because of her identity as a half-elf.
As a hybrid of human and elf, half-elf's talent should be higher than normal human. And because of her hybrid blood, Imina is actually not very well-liked by humans in this world.
"You two should get ready and leave the Bahas Empire now and head to the capital of the Kingdom of Re-Estize."
"Renas, you should keep a high profile during your journey. Don't hide your identity after you arrive at the capital."
Tang Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he told Lenas what to do next: "Then find a man named Gazef. He is very famous, so it shouldn't be difficult to find out his whereabouts."
"Find a way to fight him. You don't have to win. A draw or even a loss is fine."
Renas had a puzzled look on her face, but she still put her hand on his shoulder and nodded respectfully: "Yes, sir."
"Ms. Imina." Tang Zheng.
"Just call me Imina."
Imina rolled her eyes.
"You don't need to be so high-profile. Try not to let people know about your relationship with Renas. When you arrive in the capital, investigate an organization called "Eight Fingers."
"No need to really investigate. If you sell this, someone will probably target you. Just make sure you are safe."
Tang Zheng moved his sleeves and threw out a mithril dagger to Imina.
That was the mithril dagger that was found on the Eight Fingers.
"My lord, what about you?" Renas asked with some concern.
"I still have some things to take care of in the imperial capital. You guys go ahead and gather in the royal capital." Tang Zheng spoke softly, looking up at the deep night sky.
Since you have to plan, the sooner you plan, the better!
I don’t know if “Blue Rose” is in the royal capital now. Even if not, there is something in the royal capital that is worth his planning.
There was no rush originally, so I might as well do it now.
