Electric carriage carriage.

When Queen Kao suddenly said this, Rosen was secretly surprised.

"This queen actually still retains the soul of a mage. I thought she had been completely submerged by the royal power."

The fact that she could say such a thing showed that she was not simply a slave to profit.

But whether her words were a momentary emotional impulse or an ideal that was precipitated after careful consideration requires careful discernment.

If it was the former, Rosen would just treat it as a fart.

If it is the latter, then it is a motto that can influence the fate of countless people.

So Rosen whispered in his heart: "Your Majesty, I am just a small baron of an island, and my territory has a population of only more than 200,000. How dare I covet the khal?"

"I'm not kidding."

The queen had a serious expression, and her eyes showed a kind of indifference that came from seeing through the world. It didn't seem like she was acting on impulse.

After a pause, she looked at Alia who was driving the car and the intelligence assistant who was sitting in the passenger seat, and said softly, "It's not convenient to talk about it here. Let's talk about it in detail when we get back."

Having said this, she closed her eyes and said nothing.

Soon returned to Crescent Castle.

The queen lives in the VIP area of ​​the castle, a separate small building to the left and rear of the lord's long house.

It used to be a wooden building, but was later rebuilt with tempered yellow clay, becoming a three-story villa with a courtyard, similar to a townhouse.

The car drove all the way to the gate of the courtyard and stopped.

The guard at the gate opened the car door, Rosen got out, and then went to the other side to open the door for the queen.

The queen went straight into the living room of the small building. After Rosen followed in, she said, "I want to have a private talk. Let's set up a high-ring barrier."

She now believes that Rosen's magic power is definitely more than six rings, because the protector of the Glorious Empire, the Duke of Sistine, is far less powerful than Rosen.

Rosen nodded, and with a thought, the Breathless Crystal Wall unfolded, covering the inner wall of this bright and spacious living room with a layer of light blue water film.

Because of the special nature of the barrier, light from the outside world can enter the room freely.

Sitting in the living room, you can clearly see the situation outside the house through the large and exquisite windows, and even see the guards standing under the shaded pavilion in the courtyard.

But if you look in from the outside, you can only see an opaque layer of blue light through the window.

In the living room, the lightning-driven constant temperature array also runs 24 hours a day, so the indoor temperature is fresh and cool, without any summer heat.

On the thick cashmere carpet that feels very nice underfoot, there is a square table made of golden wood and three single thick leather chairs.

The queen sat at one, and Rosen at the other, across from her.

"Plop~Gululu~"

The queen opened a bottle of emerald green forest elf specialty fruit wine and poured it into a crystal wine glass that was square outside and round inside. After it was half full, she handed it to Rosen.

"Baron, you are right."

"Kingship is an illusion."

"The Silger royal family has existed for 1,200 years, with dozens of kings ascending the throne and falling. In the end, the only thing that is remembered by future generations is the surname 'Silger'."

"And I am only a queen of a khal. Even if I am lucky enough to seize the royal power, I can only enjoy the glory for a dozen years at most."

"When the time comes, I will have to let go, otherwise the end will be miserable."

"But if I pursue the truth, and if I am lucky enough to have my name engraved on this path, then even after thousands of years, my name will continue to be mentioned, as if I have always been alive."

“For me personally, this is the greatest meaning of life.”

Rosen took the wine glass and took a sip, feeling the unique mellow and smooth taste of the forest spirit fruit wine. He raised the glass to salute the queen.

"Your Majesty's insight is truly admirable."

A trace of emotion appeared on the queen's beautiful face: "These are just some superficial ideas, nothing to brag about. There are many wizards who have the same idea as me."

Rosen immediately said, "But after becoming the queen and holding the royal power, the only mage who still remembers his original intention is your Majesty."

This compliment hit the nail on the head. Everyone loves to be praised, and the queen is no exception. She couldn't help but smile.

"The Baron has a sweet mouth, but stop praising me and let's talk business."

She coughed lightly, her expression becoming serious: "Next, the Baron will control Weilan, right?"

Anyone with a discerning eye could see this, and Rosen did not hide it: "Yes, I want to use Weilan's power to realize my dream."

"Oh, that does sound a bit scary."

"Because of a small white sturgeon island, the Baron has become so powerful. If the entire territory of Weilan falls into the hands of the Baron, and if the Baron is given some time, I am afraid that the entire Natural Alliance combined will not be Weilan's opponent."

"If I were a simple queen of the khal, I would do my best to stop you. But as a wizard of the Natural Alliance, I have to say that you cannot focus on just a small person like Weilan. You have to expand your vision and focus on the entire Natural Alliance."

Rosen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your Majesty, I haven't got Weilan yet."

“It’s just a matter of time.”

The queen gently placed the wine glass on the golden wood table with a slight "click" sound, and then placed the wine bottle next to the wine glass.

"The khal is the wine glass, and the Glorious Empire is the wine bottle."

He also used the wizard's hand to bring over a few new wine glasses.

"The capacity of a wine glass alone is not comparable to that of a wine bottle. Only by gathering the strength of all the countries in the alliance can we hold the wine of the Glorious Empire."

She moved the wine glass to show the positions of the three kingdoms of the alliance and the Glorious Empire: "Aaron is the main force against the Empire, and His Majesty Dange is under the greatest pressure."

"Of course I will contain him to prevent him from interfering in the Weilan Civil War, but I won't go too far. I will even help Aaron when necessary."

"Because once the Giant Fortress is lost, the army of the Glorious Empire will rush into the Aarons Plain like a flood, and this will greatly reduce the living space of the Natural Alliance."

She tapped the table behind the glass lightly: "After all, there is already an ocean behind the alliance. We have nowhere to retreat."

Rosen naturally knew the current world situation, and he also knew that the Glorious Empire was also rushing towards becoming a powerful country in magic.

Because of its large population, vast and rich territory, its running speed is obviously faster than that of the countries in the Natural Alliance.

"Your Majesty, I understand this, so even if I take control of Weilan, I will not cut off trade with Aaron."

"I just hope that both sides can trade fairly, instead of the current relationship of slave and master."

The queen nodded and said, "I am very pleased to hear the Baron say this. Your request is also very reasonable, so I will do my best to support you."

"But, this alone is not enough to fight against the Glorious Empire. The Natural Alliance must truly unite!"

“But it’s very difficult.”

The queen pointed to one of the wine glasses and said, "This is Levender on the Eastern Golden Cape, a merchant country that hides in the back and has no overall situation and only cares about making money."

She used the wizard's hand to control the wine and drew a simple map of the East Golden Cape on the table.

"In the southeast of the East Golden Cape, Levender's trade fleet is having very frequent trade with the Glorious Nations. Preliminary estimates show that the annual trade volume exceeds 30 million Oggs."

The Glorious Kingdoms refer to the Glorious Empire as well as a group of kingdoms and principalities that border the Empire and are controlled by the Empire.

Excluding the Empire, there are eight small countries in this group with a total population of over 200 million. They are a force that cannot be ignored on the continent of Witt.

Rosen leaned forward slightly and looked at the traces of wine slowly drying on the table. "It seems that Levender's interests are deeply tied to the Glorious Nations. In the continental conflict that may break out in the future, his best performance will be passive resistance, and at worst he may even be a traitor."

"That's right."

The queen whispered, “In the eyes of the royal family, the struggle between countries is only to maintain the royal power of their own family.”

“But in my opinion, when countries compete, they are competing for the right of their citizens to survive.”

"So, even if they don't share a common belief, the allied nations must fight the Glorious Empire with all their might."

"So, in order for the alliance to get close to the right to survive of 500 million people, the alliance must change from scattered wine glasses to a single wine bottle!"

The queen carefully stacked the three wine glasses together so that they were almost as high as the bottle.

Then, she stared at Rosen with her ocean-blue eyes: "Danger also sees this. He wants to unify the country, but I know he can't do it. I want to, too, but I can only be in power for a dozen years at most, and there is no hope."

"Let alone Levender, the absurd queen mother, the king of questionable bloodline, and the wise man who is the mastermind behind all this, he has a lot of troubles himself, not to mention the external expansion."

"I thought there was no hope for the alliance to unify until you, Baron, showed up."

"You are young enough. Although you said you are in your seventies, I know you are only in your twenties, so you have plenty of time."

"If you can conquer Weilan, you will be the first unique person in the alliance to rise from the bottom up and unify a grand duchy."

"You have an amazing control over the Weilan Society."

"And this kind of control is something that the kings of the three alliance countries currently do not have at all."

"Using Weilan as a base and expanding outward, it is very likely that we can conquer the entire Natural Alliance and truly integrate the alliance into one."

Rosen listened quietly to the Queen's description of the strategy, and a thought came to his mind: "It's almost exactly what I thought."

But at this moment, the queen changed the subject: "But this conquest may not be fast enough."

After a pause, she said, "Baron may not know that the Black Stone warship of the Glorious Empire has also been launched to the sea, and is also working hard to develop flying magic tools."

"Queen Zhuoya is an ambitious woman, and the rich and glorious divine blood in her body is also fully displayed."

After a pause, the queen said something astonishing: "Many signs indicate that Queen Zhuoya is a high-level mage. I mean, she is most likely a miracle mage above the sixth level."

Rosen was not surprised by this: "The fact that the Queen dared to use the Six-ring Mage Saint without worrying about backlash and even still had a huge suppressive power over the Duke of Sistine is enough to prove this point."

From all the signs, he deduced that Queen Zhuoya should be an eighth-ring wizard, or perhaps even higher, nine rings is also possible.

Think about it, a person who is a nine-ring wizard of the new era and controls the most powerful empire in the Witt continent is simply the chosen one.

If a high-level wizard who comes from a commoner or minor noble family wants to fight against her, he will be in a super hell scenario.

Even the kings of the alliance were oppressed and had difficulty breathing.

However, Rosen did not fully empathize with the queen's anxiety.

"Although the empire is powerful, it is not without rivals."

"The Holy Elf Empire in the westernmost part of the continent is also a huge behemoth."

"Five years ago, the two countries' expeditionary forces for external expansion met in the Gambe Valley and fought a great battle. It is said that the Glorious Empire suffered a bit."

"Also, I heard that there might be a very powerful alien nation on the other side of the Storm Ocean."

The queen was surprised: "Are you sure?"

Rosen shook his head: "I'm not sure, but there must be someone there, and his magic skills are not low."

"About three years ago, a ship carrying a group of strange people drifted to the Ironland Province on the western coast of the Glorious Empire. However, because they looked too strange and had difficulty communicating in language, they were mistaken for demons and killed by local fishermen."

The queen was startled: "I have heard of the battle of Gambe, but I don't know about this."

Rosen took another sip of his drink. "It happened several years ago, and it was a small matter. The queen hadn't taken power at the time, so it's normal that she didn't know about it."

He knew this because he paid deliberate attention to it. After all, he once had the intention of conquering the continent.

If you want to dominate, how can you not know the world situation?

Second, it is also because of the frequent information exchange in Dawn City.

The third was also a coincidence, because he happened to meet a businessman from the Glorious Empire.

After a pause and drinking all the fruit wine, Rosen stacked the fourth wine glass on the cup rack and used Transfiguration to condense them together.

"But the queen is right. If the weak do not unite, they will become slaves of the strong."

"The Natural Alliance has no way to retreat. We can only move forward with all our might."

He leaned back into the thick leather chair. "So, Your Majesty intends to help me unify the alliance?"

"That's right."

The queen nodded decisively, "I have no interest in maintaining the royal power of the Silger family. I also have no respect for the divine right of nature, and I don't have much affection for the child that Silger forced me to give birth to."

"I didn't even raise them myself because the royal family thought I was born a commoner and was afraid that my commoner habits would corrupt the children."

"Of course, they are my children after all. As long as the Baron can ensure that they can live a decent life, I will be satisfied."

"My idea is that once you conquer Weilan and consolidate your position, I will start helping you plan for continental hegemony."

Of course, Rosen was very moved by the queen's full support.

But there are concerns.

"This is a big matter. It not only involves me, but also the fate of countless of my supporters. It is difficult for me to believe in your Majesty's sincerity based on a few words."

Queen Kaa took a deep breath and seemed to have made some kind of decision.

She stood up and walked over to Rosen.

"We are the Kingdom of Roses, Aaron calls us the Gardeners, and Levender calls us the Kingdom of Profligate."

"But no matter what others say, it cannot change the traditions of the khal."

"In our khal, if a woman sets her eyes on a man, she will offer him a rose to prove her love."

"If the Baron needs it, I can offer him my rose."

After a pause, she said a little embarrassedly: "Of course, my rose has been plucked before. If the Baron dislikes it, then forget it."

Rosen smiled: "Isn't my golden blessing potion enough to restore your majesty's rose to life?"

The queen blushed and said, "That's why I have the courage to sacrifice myself."

Rosen has always been a dissolute person. He naturally has extremely high pursuits in magic, but he does not have high demands on himself in terms of personal morality.

What's the use of the magic gun if you don't pick the beautiful flowers?

Of course, it doesn't mean that you can completely trust her after interviewing her, it just increases the level of trust.

Moreover, it does not mean that it will play a big role immediately, but it can only be said that it will lay a very important chess piece in the future strategy.

So he opened the exquisite outer packaging of the flowers, took a closer look, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's gift turned out to be a wine-red rose."

The queen was a little unsteady on her feet, and said shyly, "Baron, in our khal, when you are admiring flowers, you cannot use your hands to turn them around, lest you damage the petals."

Rosen laughed: "Your Majesty is right. I am impolite, but please be prepared, because my flower arrangement skills may be quite unique."

The queen was a little surprised. She looked down and was shocked. Then she realized something: "Baron, I heard that many nobles in Levender asked you to order the Transformer Gun. It turns out to be true!"

Rosen explained seriously: "They are the product of transfiguration, but I was born this way."

This matter needs to be made clear.

The queen was immediately in awe: "Well, I hope your flower arrangement skills are good enough."

After saying this, she resolutely presented her rose.
