Chapter 456 Ai Xue (5)
Lina did not see Her Majesty the Queen. After Danica came back, she went directly to the study on the second floor. The princess of the elf tribe, Phyllis Yuelan, was also here.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Phyllis said uneasy.
This afternoon, she suddenly felt several strong magic fluctuations, which were the energy waves emitted by the profession self-destruction, including intermediate and advanced professions. This made Phyllis fall into great anxiety. If she hadn't known that Danica had several magic equipment that she could save her life, she would have rushed over to save her.
Danica said tiredly: "I was ambushed, and there were probably two million undeads forming a thick and tight encirclement."
Two million? Phyllis was stunned and said, "So Catherine and the others..."
Danica said, "Wait a little longer, we are scattered and running for life. Maybe someone else can escape, but most of them probably won't come back."
Phyllis was silent. After a while, she suddenly asked, "Is this a trap set by the Curse Sect?"
Danica nodded and said, "It should be yes. Although there is indeed a space node there, from my observation, it should be artificial."
Phyllis continued: "Is this news provided to you by Aishi?"
Hearing this, Danica's face looked a little bad, and she said, "Yes, this is indeed what Ai Xue said."
"So now Aishi..." Phyllis knew that Aishi was back with Danica.
Danica said: "She is suspected of treason and has been controlled by the Guards."
Philis ignored the depression in Danica's tone, but instead sneered, saying, "Lemir, Catherine, Aishe, you have already tossed." After pausing, Philis advised, "You can always calm down for a while now, right? I have never seen a king like you, thinking about how to torture your own country." First, he completely destroyed the Executive Department, and now he has damaged most of the middle and senior officers in the Military Department. Philis estimated that Danica would use Aishe to rebel and also exchange the Aishe Chamber of Commerce. That is, Danica has strong control over this country, and there are allies outside, otherwise, the Gemini Kingdom would have been in chaos long ago.
Danica didn't say anything, just looked at Phyllis, and after a while, she said, "I can't do anything about it, this is the fate of this country."
"Fate?" Phyllis said sarcastically, "Can killing heroes become the fate of a country?"
Unexpectedly, Danica nodded and said, "Yes, in a country where the royal power is concentrated, killing heroes is fate. Phileas, I established the Gemini Kingdom, but the Executive Ministry was established by Lemir, the Aishi Chamber of Commerce was established by Aishi, and the Military Department was established by Catherine. Their control over these departments... made me feel uneasy and made the royal power feel uneasy."
Phyllis waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to mix with the internal affairs of the Gemini Kingdom. You can do whatever you want. But after this, the military strength of the Gemini Kingdom will drop significantly, right? You know, the current situation is not very stable."
This was actually initiated by Danica. After returning to the front line of the Anti-Demon Battle, she took the initiative to start a war with the Demon Legion, regaining a lot of lost ground, but it also attracted the counterattack of the Demon Legion. The war between big and small has not stopped recently. If the military strength of the Gemini Kingdom suddenly declined sharply, it will have a great impact on the entire front.
Danica said: "There is absolutely an impact, but it is not that bad. There are soldiers from the Beast Clan in front of you. The Gemini Kingdom only needs to provide fire support for artillery. You know, in the military headquarters, artillery is an emerging military branch. Many artillery officers have not been promoted to the middle and high-level level, and the only few have been left by Lina, so the combat effectiveness of artillery has not been greatly affected."
This should have been done by Danica. Phyllis muttered in her heart, this is normal. If a person like Danica wants to plot against others, of course, he will arrange all aspects in advance.
"What's next?" Phyllis asked, "What should we do next?" Lucya and Tyran may not know, but Phyllis knew that Danica was not willing to regain these so-called lost lands. The success or failure of the battle against the demons was definitely not in the battle for these lands. This was just a small situation, but in the overall situation, Phyllis still doesn't know what Danica thought.
Danica said: "Continue to fight against the demons. If their attack is too fierce, we will retreat. If they relax, we will move forward. In my opinion, our current military construction is not yet mature, and we still need to improve it in such practical combat to better adapt to the battle with the demons."
Phyllis deduces the current situation in his mind and said, "By the way, there is something I have always wanted to ask you, all our current combat plans and the direction of the training and improvement of the army are aimed at demons, but the Curse Sect has also natural disasters in the undead, in addition to the demon legion, what should we do if we encounter them? Don't forget that your officers died at the hands of the undead."
Danica smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. The deceased spirits cannot become a climate in front of us. Our main enemy is still those demons."
"So confident?" Phyllis said suspiciously, "You have to give me a reason!"
Danica thought for a while and said, "You can look at the disaster from another perspective. Whether it is the most ordinary zombies or the powerful death knights and lichs, they are people from our world."
This sentence was interesting. Phyllis narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You mean... can they still help us fight the demons?"
Danica said with a smile: "It's not that there is no such possibility."
"Then what are they doing now?" The demons were summoned to this world.
"Just profit." Danica said, "The Curse Sect brings demons to the point of gaining power and seizing profits. As for destroying this world... you overestimate those guys, they don't have such a 'magnificent' goal."
Phyllis said, "As far as I know, the Curse Sect is a sorcerer organization. You know, sorcerers are those who sell their souls to demons. How dare they disobey their master?"
Danica said: "Yes, there are indeed some warlocks who sell their souls to demons, as you said, and they are the demons' puppets, but do you think that kind of person has the intelligence to build a huge Curse Sect? How troublesome is it to manage such a large organization? Can a fanatic cope with it? Believe me, Philis, the guys in the Curse Sect are more flexible than we think."
Phyllis looked at Danica and said, "You have any contact with them?" This seemed to have a great possibility. Since the beginning of the Battle of Anti-Damage, except for a very few times, the enemies on the Eastern Front have been demons, not gods.
Danica just smiled and didn't say anything.
Phyllis sighed heavily and said, "Danica, I believe in your wisdom. No matter who you deal with, you will never suffer any loss. I just hope... in the end you don't sell me."
Danica walked in, hugged Phyllis, and said in her ear: "Don't worry, I will never betray you. We are good friends, forever."
...
After a brief chat about the current situation, Phyllis saw that Danica was very tired and left.
A few minutes after Phyllis left, Luna knocked on the door and came in, stood in front of Danica, lowered her head and said, "Master, are you looking for me?"
Luna was originally the maid of the Gemini Palace, and was Danica's personal maid in the palace. However, in recent years, Danica has been in the Gemini Palace for very little time, so Luna returned to the Aishi Chamber of Commerce and participated in daily management. Only when Danica returns to the Twins City did she continue to assume the responsibilities of a maid.
Luna has a high status in the Aishue Chamber of Commerce. In addition to her own abilities, in such a country with extremely strong royal power, Luna, as the queen's personal maid, can be awe-inspired by many people. Although she feels a bit like a vile and powerful, Luna has indeed become the core decision-maker of the Aishue Chamber of Commerce with her own means and identity.
Danica looked up at Luna and said, "Aixue is suspected of rebellion and has been controlled by the Guards. You are responsible for the Aixue Chamber of Commerce during this period, is there no problem?"
"Ah? Yes...yes...no problem." Luna replied in a panic.
This was definitely an unexpected news for her. Although Luna also noticed that Danica intended to support her in order to share Ai Xue's power, after all, it was very dangerous for the entire kingdom to be in the hands of one person. But Luna never expected that Danica would let her replace her. This was not an easy task. The kingdom's finances were too dangerous in the hands of Ai Xue, and it would not be dangerous to control them in her own hands? Of course, the danger here was for Luna. As long as she had a slight change, the guards would come and knock on the door.
Danica ignored Luna's surprise and nervousness and directly ordered: "You have two main tasks now, one is to ensure the production of anti-demon coalition armies, especially the production of arsenal, and the other is to promote the twelve-hour working system. I hope this system can be implemented nationwide by the end of next year."
Luna bowed and said, "Yes, Master."
After giving Luna a few simple instructions, Danica waved her to retreat.
Originally, Danica planned to call Lina over and arrange the military affairs, but in the end she did it. The fatigue she showed in front of Philees just now was not a pretender, she did feel a deep fatigue.
