In the early morning, sitting in the hotel restaurant, Leo sipped morning tea, picked up the newspaper that had been ironed by the waiter, and flipped it up. The headline news was that the vessel on which the Spiritual Dramatic Group was traveling had an accident. News of the river's estuary overturning.
Seeing this news, Leo hardly thought about it, knowing that it must be Vaschi’s revenge. From the follow-up reports of the news, there were no casualties. Apparently Vasqi was very angry, but he still managed to control his emotions Staying dead, otherwise with Vaskey's ability and the environment in the water, even if you can't kill Mitty Grant, it's not difficult to kill her members.
After looking at the front page of the front page, you can see that the next page is the follow-up report of the last tour of the spiritual drama group Inge Kingdom. As for the report on the strange event of the sea spear tavern in Queens, it was compressed to eighth In the urban anecdote, some newspapers did not even record this.
It has been two days since the last performance of the spiritual drama troupe. For the people in the city of Turin, the day is still the same as before. They did not feel that they were facing the disaster of extinction two days ago. , Almost died in his sleep.
However, for the senior officials of the Kingdom of England, these two days are very turbulent, because the political development of the senior leaders of the Kingdom is dazzling, and it is completely unclear. Many people are even imaginative, thinking if there is anything. Big things will happen.
The Navy’s Chief Logistics Officer Anderson Lehman announced his retirement as the first news to disrupt the political situation in the Kingdom of England. After Hoover Hansen’s assassination, almost everyone thought that the next Chief of Staff would definitely fall on Anderson Lehman. Body.
Because both seniority and prestige, Anderson Lehman is the first choice. Although he has some disadvantages in terms of age and is too large, there is no problem with the position of chief of staff for a few years.
But no one thought that Anderson Lehman would even take the initiative to submit a retirement application. What was even more unexpected was that the retirement application was passed so quickly at the highest meeting of the Navy’s Military Department. It only needs to be submitted to Congress and the royal family to do some forms. The discussion on the above, stamped, will take effect immediately.
Soon some people retired Anderson Lehman, and the Naval Ministry quickly linked it to the case of Hoover Hanson assassination, although the contradiction between Anderson Lehman and Hoover Hansen was The internal contradictions of the high-level navy, but people who do not represent the outside world do not know. In fact, the hatred between the two high-level navies is often the talk of the kingdom residents after tea and dinner, but now it has become a plain face because of one death and one retirement. On the matter.
Many people think that Hoover Hansen was killed by Anderson Lehman’s hired killer. Some newspapers fearing that the world is not chaotic will also discuss these matters with great fanfare, and even some members of the House of Commons want to take advantage of this incident. By name, submit a proposal to the House of Commons to investigate whether Anderson Lehman is related to the death of Hoover Hansen.
Judging from the content disclosed in the newspaper, Anderson Lehman's situation seems to be very bad, and he will be arrested and investigated at any time, and even convicted. But if you look closely, it is not difficult to find out that all kinds of The remarks are all from trivial little characters, and the newspapers reported are only third-rate newspapers. The most mainstream newspapers in Dulin City did not report these things. It can be seen that Anderson Lehman's situation is not very bad.
In addition to the retirement of senior naval officers, in the past two days, royal court officials, members of Congress and government officials have also chosen more than 20 people to retire or resign, and the positions of these 20 people are undoubtedly the real power positions. As for the resignation The reasons for retirement are the same, saying that your body is no longer suitable for heavy work and so on.
It’s okay if the person who says this is 60 or 70 years old, but the youngest person who speaks these words is only in his twenties, and the biggest one is only more than 30, all of which belong to the young and strong. Work feels heavy.
However, the only people who really care about the reasons for the resignation of these officials and parliamentarians are those ordinary people who have nothing to do. The most important thing in the eyes of the high-ranking dignitaries of the kingdom is the ultimate attribution of the vacant more than 20 positions.
It is conceivable that in a short period of time in the future, these real power positions will become the goals that various factions of the kingdom's high ranks are fighting for, and the high-level struggles will also become a Shura field.
After seeing these reports, Leo began to consider waiting to return to Port Saite, and immediately triggered a struggle to travel to the mainland of Minsk to avoid being involved in the kingdom's top management. After all, no one knows whether there will be a idiot who wants to show himself. The ability to use him as a background wall.
At the same time, he also suggested that Jason first avoid this high-level struggle and go abroad. After all, who can be sure that those who are stunned for power will do something extraordinary, such as Hoover Han Sen’s organizational candidates.
At noon the next day, Leo confirmed that Mitty Grant was far away from the city of Turin, and then contacted the rune magic circle around the seaspike tavern, releasing the people trapped in the tavern.
The strange things that happened inside and outside the Sea Spear tavern that night were all covered up, and even the newspapers were only published in the entertainment version of some third-rate newspapers.
Although the trapped people were released, although they had no physical problems, their spirits received some harm, and when they were trapped, it seemed that something bad happened, so that after they were released, everyone’s expressions looked a little bit eccentric.
Perhaps it is undesirable for these followers of Hoover Hansen to do anything out of the ordinary. The high-level navy officers used the excitement of not being good enough to force these low- and medium-level officers to take a vacation, but this incident caused some newspapers. Note, and report it, even linking it to Anderson Lehman's resignation.
"You're such a troublemaker!" Just when Leo put the newspaper aside and desperately needed to deal with the food in front of him, Frank Fawson, who had just entered the restaurant, walked straight to his side and sat down uncomfortably. Said to Leo.
Leo looked at Frank Fussen indifferently, without refuting.
"This high-level turmoil will not subside for a long time, and will spread to the colonies. My retirement application has been temporarily put on hold to stabilize the situation." Frank Fussen said angrily.
For others, the Director of the Special Bureau is a highly weighted position, but for Frank Füssen, this is just his burden. He can’t wait to get this burden, but unfortunately the sky is not what people want, and it was very smooth. The retirement application was put on hold at this time, and he had to sit indefinitely in the position that gave him a headache.
"Congratulations." Leo stared at Frank Fussen for a while before he said something that caused the opponent's forehead to show up.
Frank Fussen said angrily: "This is not a happy thing."
"But I feel like you are enjoying it," Leo retorted.
Regarding Leo's rebuttal, Frank Füssen was both angry and funny, and Shen Sheng said, "Where did you see me having fun?"
"If not, you can just leave everything and leave. I don't think that the orders of the royal family and Congress will affect you." Leo's eyes seemed to be able to see through all the ideas in Frank Fussen's heart. He continued: "You are now reluctant to have the rights in your hands. For a person who has already enjoyed the pleasure of rights, it may not be easy to give up the rights in his hands."
Frank Fussen didn't refute, but just fell silent.
He had to admit in his heart that Leo was indeed right, he could not let go of those rights deep in his heart, even if those rights had been idle.
At this moment, Otto, a well-dressed and fashionable old wizard, also came in from outside the restaurant and sat next to Leo. After looking at Frank Füssen, he turned to Leo and said, "It’s a bad idea." Those guys have solved it, and the royal family and Congress have reached another set of agreements with the navy. The navy should not carry out any capture operations on Mitty Grant in a short time, but it will not be clear whether it will be in the future. Now."
"There is no need to tell me this, I will not interfere in this matter anymore, even if there is any disaster here, I will not control it." Leo pointed out his attitude mercilessly.
Hearing Leo’s words, what the old wizard wanted to say was also blocked in his throat and could not be said.
He came to Leo this time and was actually an important person in the royal family who wanted to meet Leo, but now it seems that it is not a good idea to let Leo and that important person meet because he knows the character of the royal family In addition to Leo’s attitude at the moment, he hardly needs to think about it. He can be sure that there will be conflicts, which will set up an enemy to the royal family.
Thinking of this, the old wizard dismissed the original thought, and then had nothing to say, asking about the trading time and location of the subsequent potions.
And Frank Fussen, who had no retired thoughts, was also very concerned about the matter of pharmacy. After all, it was related to the safety of the lives of those under his control, so he joined together.
Leo knew that the two should be seeking more wizard potions from him, but he did not intend to increase the number of wizard potions shipped, but he also did not intend to let the two best buyers out of sight. , So he tried to sell his rune magic circle.
"Is that the witchcraft you used yesterday?" Compared to Frank Fussen, the old wizard Otto had seen the effect of Leo's use of the rune magic circle, although he also had a way to crack the rune magic circle. Mirror industry, but it will definitely not be easy. He is still the same with the rune magic circle. Other ordinary family members or extraordinary people, if they cannot find the correct way to leave, I am afraid that they will be the same as the people trapped in the tavern that day. They can only wait for the power of the magic circle to disappear. Get out of trouble.
The old wizard had always thought that the witchcraft should be difficult to use, so although he was angry with the witchcraft, he never thought about asking for details, but now from Leo’s mouth, he found that he thought Very special sorcery seems to be mass-produced just like the wizard potion, and it seems that it can be used by others, which makes him feel very new, and also transferred his interest in wizard potion to this.
Although Frank Fussen had never seen Leo use the rune magic circle in person, he was able to feel the expectation of the other from the old wizard's look. In addition, he also heard about the Seaspear Tavern, so he was also right Interested in this rune magic circle that can trap people in a small place.
Under the expected gaze of the two, Leo took out two rune traps and placed them on the table. Frank Fussen and the old wizard respectively took a rune trap and looked closely.
Leo also introduced the effects of these two rune traps when they checked the rune traps.
These two rune traps are not the rune magic circle that banned the tavern that day, but only two pure rune traps, which are themselves triggered, and more importantly, only Leo’s psionic energy can activate this rune. Wen traps, any kind of energy can be used as a medium to activate rune traps.
"How is the power of this thing?" Although Frank Fussen may be slightly better than the old wizard, his knowledge and eyesight can't be compared with the old wizard, and there is no way to see that the composition of this rune trap is far away, so only Can put it down ~ EbookFREE.me ~ directly asked Leo a key question.
Leo Shensheng replied: "The freezing trap in your hand, after it is triggered, can instantly freeze the person who triggered it. As for how long it can be frozen, there is no constant time."
Frank Fussen thought about it and asked, "So what about me?"
Leo thought about it seriously and said, "In your case, you can only breathe at most."
Upon hearing Leo's answer, a shocked expression appeared on Frank Fussen's face, because he knew that a few breaths were enough to kill him several times.
At this time, the old wizard also put the thing down and asked Leo: "What's the price of this thing?"
"I don't want money, I only need materials!" Leo replied.
"Material? What material?" the old wizard asked again.
Leo looked deeply at the old wizard and smiled, "The materials the wizard can use."
The old wizard seems to know what the material Leo mentioned, and the look on his face is a bit different, while Frank Fawson on the side can’t understand the conversation between the old wizard and Leo, but he can be sure that the old wizard The materials to be paid are probably not only precious, but also difficult to obtain.
"What about me?" Frank Fussen also asked.
"Same." Leo looked at the other person and replied simply.
Frank Fawson frowned and said, "But I don't know what material you want?"
"Aren't you the special bureau chief? Since you don't know what materials I want, go check." Leo stood up as he spoke, pointing at Frank Füssen and the still daze old wizard. Refers to the rune trap on the table and said: "The two rune traps are used as samples to give the two to go back to test the power, and then you will know whether it is worth it."
