Chapter 503 Recourse
late at night.
Palace of Apophis.
Joe lay on the big bed, the tent was open, he tilted his head and looked at the big snake on the ceiling.
The scene from not long ago was constantly reappearing in his head.
"Prepare for the war, gentlemen!"
Salian stood in the middle of the Chapel Hall, waving his fists at Joe, Gorkin, and other imperial officers who had just broken through the sixth level roared loudly: "Prepare for war! Use your swords and your fists to spread the glory of the empire throughout Medland!"
On the way to leaving Hydra Palace and returning to Apophis Palace, Joe was in a daze, his mind was filled with mud.
war?
The crimson instinct is cheering, thrilling, and eagerly welcoming the arrival of war!
War, death, fear, chaos, huge destruction, as well as subsequent plagues and a large number of refugees... The disaster brought by war and death will make Crimson grow rapidly... or in other words, make Crimson reply quickly!
Return to the power he deserves!
But Joe himself?
war……
uh-huh.
Qiao remembered the block that was bombarded by mortars during the Zhongqiu bloody incident in Tulun Port.
He even remembered the disasters created by Mia and Miko before, the dead citizens of Heidra, as well as the destroyed buildings and streets... the mutated citizens were killed and purified.
Well, Crimson instinct is cheering for the arrival of war.
And Qiao's will, he had an inexplicable disgust of war.
In the Chapel Hall, Salian made it clear that Saint Attila was ready to form a coalition, and the robbed military expenditure and supplies gave the best excuse for all countries to form a coalition.
Joe's previous arrests, including the Grand Duke of Portland and others, and the evidence fabricated by Joe, also gave the Delun Empire a reason for the war - the disappearance of military expenditure and supplies, which is likely to be a conspiracy against the Delun Empire by a certain or some country.
Both sides make sense.
There are reasons to start a war.
Then, the outcome of the war will determine whose excuse is established and who truly masters the 'truth'!
According to Salian and the veteran generals, the war will break out within two months.
Moreover, the duration of the war will be extremely limited. This will be an extremely short, but extremely intense, high-intensity small-scale war.
Because on the other side of the abyss battlefield, the gate of the abyss may be opened at any time.
Once the gate of the abyss is opened, military expenditure, supplies, and other materials must be sent to the abyss battlefield as soon as possible. Therefore, no one has too much time to waste it.
With a maximum preparation time of two months, the Delun Empire undoubtedly had a great advantage.
The coalition forces only have about one month to prepare.
What can they do at this time?
The only ones who were able to draw troops and launch an attack on the Deron Empire were the Lucia Empire and his vassal states, as well as the mercenaries of the United Kingdom of Nice, as well as the navy of the Ice Sea Kingdom and the Saint-Shia Kingdom.
The Gallic Republic, which also has a large army and has great combat power, and other countries on the Medland continent, could not have transported their troops to the border line of the Delun Empire in such a short time.
There are not many enemies that the Delun Empire really has to deal with.
As long as they win this battle, all countries have to obey the will of the Delun Empire, take out another huge sum of money and supplies from their pockets, and send them to the battlefield of the abyss.
The Derren Empire will once again deter the entire Medland.
But if you lose... the Delun Empire will undoubtedly become meat on the chopping board, and let the coalition forces cut and enjoy it!
"Ah, Salian and the others seemed to be sure that St. Attila will form a coalition." Joe lay on the bed and muttered in a low voice: "Of course, I can also figure it out that St. Attila was pinched by us, and Rafa...oh, oh..."
"It is said that Rafa will become the commander-in-chief of the coalition?"
"It's hard to lose this battle." Qiao murmured: "Empire, is it intentional to incite war? This incident gave the empire the best chance... and the people I arrested gave the empire the best excuse."
"Well, even if you provoke a war, you have to make excuses... Everyone is a nobleman, so you still have shame."
Qiao suddenly felt hot all over.
If the Delun Empire wins this battle, then according to the Delun Empire's attitude, all countries must take out a huge sum of money from their pockets and collect all the military expenses paid to the battlefield of the abyss.
So...what is the astronomical wealth that was robbed by Mia and Miko?
"Oh, oh, oh, Mia, Mike, two little beloved, you guys..." Qiao was hot all over, and sweat broke out on his forehead. He was no longer in the mood to sleep, but climbed up and walked around the huge bedroom several times.
In the darkness, his huge body was like a shadow, floating across the air, and his footsteps fell on the ground without making any sound. From time to time, he would simply jump up to the wall, run vertically on the wall, or even jump up to the ceiling, hanging upside down on the ceiling and running quickly.
After half a quarter of an hour, Qiao rushed to the edge of his big bed, lifted up the flyer, and pulled out two huge cowhide boxes from the dark grid below the bed, each of which could easily hold two living people's cowhide boxes.
When I opened the cowhide box, one box was filled with small gold nuggets the size of a thumb, and the other box was filled with bronze notes. The gold nuggets were silent, while the brand new ones emitted a strong ink fragrance in the dark.
"Laplahi, you said before, there is a wonderful way to track Mia and Miko?" Qiao smiled, gently grabbed a handful of gold nuggets, then let go of his hand, and the gold nuggets fell back into the box, making a crisp impact.
"Tell me this method, I can't wait to see them." Qiao shivered with excitement: "Well, according to the Imperial "Public Security Law", if any property is stolen and help the owner recover the stolen property, I can get up to 20% of the reward."
"How much is that military expenditure and the baggage?"
Joe swallowed with excitement.
Laplaci's sharp and delicate voice rang in Joe's mind: "Don't you want to take it alone?"
Qiao was silent for a while, then sighed heavily: "I think, but I know myself, the Weitu family can't stand it... Hesen often says that the stronger the fist, the greater the territory. When his own strength is insufficient, too much wealth will only cause disaster."
Shrugging his shoulders, Qiao whispered: "And, if the Empire is defeated, I always have to take some precautions, right?"
"I can feel that the Empire intends to take this opportunity to start a war, or in other words, the Empire has actually been preparing for a war, but this time has given them the best excuse and opportunity."
"But in war, where is there a reason to win safely?"
"If you win this game, of course it will be a joyful thing... but if the Empire loses... Haha, those guys will be strange if they don't squeeze out the oil and water from the bones of the Empire."
"Where do you want to squeeze oil from the Empire? The super Junkers in Ruhr City and the maritime merchants in Tulum Port are obviously the most eye-catching targets." Joe said seriously: "If the Empire is defeated and the navy of the Ice Sea Kingdom and the Kingdom of Saint-Shia land in Tulum Port, it would be strange if they were not the first to attack the Vitu family."
"So, this money cannot be taken away by itself..." Qiao raised his head and looked at the hideous and terrifying snake on the ceiling: "And with the strength of the Vitu family, you may not be able to swallow this money... It is a corrosive spirit, a corrosive spirit that harms the entire Medland."
Laplacie laughed a few times, "Human hearts... are so complicated... Oh, I can't understand... But, it's very interesting."
A thin whirlwind rose up flat, and the gold nuggets and banknotes in the box were constantly disappearing.
Widths of blue smoke spewed out from the disappearing gold nuggets and banknotes, and gradually condensed into a piece of 3 feet long and wide in front of Qiao. It was as smooth as the best silk, but there was no gap at all. The material was extremely special and Joe could not recognize.
On the scroll, there is a complex magic circle diagram.
Next to the magic circle diagram, there are densely filled with secret curses and secret words, as well as the corresponding steps and means to activate this magic circle diagram.
When the blue smoke dissipated, all the gold nuggets in the cowhide box had disappeared, and about one-third of the banknotes were left.
"If I pay twenty times the amount I had paid, I can tell you directly where the two little women were hiding." Laplacie's sharp laughter rang in Joe's mind: "I know everything, Joe, I know everything..."
"But I want to give everyone a reasonable explanation." Qiao proudly waved the scroll in his hand: "I can let everyone know that I have obtained some wonderful knowledge, and with this knowledge, we can find Mia and Mico."
"But if I tell everyone directly that Mia and Mi can be hidden in a certain place... Then, it's too abrupt and abnormal, how do I explain it?"
"My origin, my identity, and the family behind me are not enough to have such power. Laplaci, you may know all the knowledge in this world...but there are some things you don't understand."
"Hmm..." Laplacian raised his voice: "Maybe?"
Laplacie stopped saying a word, and Joe grabbed the scroll and jumped out of the bedroom, shouting loudly: "Come, come, take out my new uniform, prepare the car, prepare the car, I'm going to see His Highness Salian... Aha, we're going to get rich, we're going to get rich..."
Half an hour later.
In Hydra Palace, Sallyan, who was holding a thin cigarette of a desert iron camel in his bedroom, looked at Qiao with a gloomy face: "Joe, do you know how long I haven't slept? I was so easy just now..."
Joe handed the black scroll in his hand to Salian.
"Your Highness, this is when I was a child, I met a poor man on the streets of Tulum Port..."
Salian interrupted Joe's nonsense: "I don't want to hear your childhood story. Tell me, what is it for? It seems to be a magic circle? Well? Look at this style, it seems to be extremely ancient..."
Joe was held back by Sallyan's words.
He coughed and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, this can help us find Mia and Miko... to find the stolen wealth!"
Salian and the guards around him widened their eyes at the same time.
"Well, according to the Imperial "Public Security Law", can I get it..." Qiao asked Sallyan carefully.
"If it is true, I will give you the highest 20% quota..." Salian snatched the scroll, then roared loudly: "Go and invite Lord Metiga... to the fastest speed."
