Hobbes' experience of going out to sea this time is a legend, but many parts cannot be easily made public. It is not just the disaster that fell from the sky, but more about pirates joining the army.
"Although the elves were attacked and robbed by pirates, they didn't care about revenge on those pirates." Hobbs said: "The soldiers divided into two groups, one to Pirate Island and the other to Pirate Island to help them get off the island. Those who went to the Elf Island were very safe and met with us on Pirate Island."
"I checked on Pirate Island and placed those pirates who were still dissatisfied with management on the small island next to it." Hobbs scratched his bald head and laughed twice: "I originally wanted the elves to seek revenge on them, and by the way, I also cleaned up those guys and warned the monkeys for the compiled monkeys. However, the elves' brains seemed to have no string, and they didn't even look at them, but they just asked to leave as soon as possible."
"Then what did you do? Those pirates who never surrendered will become scoundrels on the island sooner or later."
"I think so too. Without ships, the army is approaching and allowing them to surrender and return them to work. If they do not surrender, they cannot be kept." Hobbes also has his own ruthlessness. He said: "I ask the elves to destroy these pirates, otherwise I will kill one human and throw two elves into the sea. There is no reason why we will sacrifice our lives for them!"
"This is also a solution, but next time you just kill the pirates who do not surrender and demonstrate to the elves how to protect the peace of the sea. In that case, if you force the elves and they fight with you again, will the situation be very dangerous?" Feiqi said, "Let's go ahead and tell me, and then what happened?"
"It took the elves a long time to eliminate the pirates. I took the opportunity to train those pirates and let them learn to implement military orders. I have to say that they are all good sailors, and I mean technical aspects. Now I can guarantee that no one will compete with us in the waters east of the United Kingdom of the Hoya nobles, and there will be no pirates within ten years."
"Very good, pirates have become a past tense, so your focus of work will change." Feige said to Hobbs: "The current fleet is enough to ensure the safety of offshore commercial roads, and can also escort cargo ships to the Elf Island. Yes, you don't need to stare. Elfs don't need to avoid that island, but they still have a lot of things left on it. The army should not go up, the hired adventurers can. You can use a secret manipulation to ask the students of the Magic School to measure the coordinates of the island, and then spend money to use the magic teleportation array to transport the previous things on the Elf Island. These things must be explained by the adventurers' "spontaneous" actions. You are just doing things with money, do you understand?"
"I understand. I can let some pirates who have already had connections operate secretly, and I will definitely not reveal my strength. Lord Earl, will there be any treasures on the Elf Island?"
"Don't think this is a treasure hunt. If that happens, I'll let my students go. This action may be very dangerous. Elf Island is a place that will be destroyed at any time, so don't get too close to you. As for what you can find..." Feiqi shook his head: "To be precise, I don't know, but you always have to look for it and find out how the elves live, what they are thinking, and even whether they can live in peace with them. I want to determine what their prophecy of destruction is and how deep the impact it has on the elves."
As the elves came to Minas Ishir and explained their purpose over and over again, their prophecy of destruction was no longer a secret. Hobbes felt a little strange, because as all the elves evacuated from the Elf Island, the prophecy could not affect the elves and was completely over. Why did Count Hall still have to worry about it? However, he understood his status and received the order to do things well. Moreover, he said that Count Hall did not leave himself in the city and was still allowed to sail to sea. This is a trust and he cannot let him down.
As this thought was turning in his mind, a burst of rapid footsteps came from behind him. The footsteps were fast but not chaotic, clear and unpleasant, but not boring. It was a rhythmic snapping sound from thick cotton slippers. Hobbs turned his head to look at Feich, and a obviously well-trained court servant rushed over and handed a letter with a golden silk edge and red mud seal to Feich.
"Letters from the noble alliance, their messengers were outside the door, holding war letters."
Feiqi took the envelope, and the paper on its surface bent in all directions like a peony blossom, hanging down, revealing the letter paper in the middle. The letter paper was suspended into the air and opened. The wording inside was very humble and beautiful. It mainly introduced Viscount Peng Ao, who was about to give the war to the future, and tried to try again to make Feiqi stop the war and enter the joint meeting of the nobles for negotiation.
"Look, they promised me the title of Grand Duke that will last forever and be inherited forever. They thought I was another Aria." Feiqi handed the letter to the attendant and said, "Take it to the clerk to register and record it and call him over, tell him there are tables, chairs, papers and ink, and then welcome Viscount Peng Ao in. Except for the clerk's chair, everything else was removed to me."
"Sir, I ask for a retreat." Hobbs quickly stood up and said.
"No need to leave. But you have to change your seat and sit at the table to hear what the aristocratic alliance has. Anyway, the fleet needs to rest, and you can't go out to sea again for a while, so you can't escape this battle. Staying here will help you quickly understand the current situation, and at least help you brag."
"Sir, I don't brag normally."
"Which should also blow when it's time, otherwise how can the wind rise?" Feiqi stretched, "When I finish this, I will have some leisure time and can read books well. Only by studying more can I make progress and stay ahead."
After a while, Viscount Peng Ao walked into the conference hall under the leadership of the guards. His head was slightly too high, his eyes kept moving forward, his left hand holding a dark golden cloak behind his back, his right arm was horizontal, and he clenched his fists at the chest of the purple clothes that were as bright as scales, looking very confident.
Hobbes slightly adjusted his seat, straightened his chest, and let out a long breath. A battle that determined the fate of the nobles was about to begin. To be honest, Hobbes did not think that Feich had many chances of victory. He just planned to go ashore in Tawugang City. He had not received any news before, and then he could only stand on Feich's side first. Now, the people from the noble alliance have come, with a letter of war, and judging by the posture of their envoy, they are obviously ready. And what about Feich? Hobbes did not see the appearance of war mobilization on the way through Tawugang City to the palace.
The clerk recorded everything truthfully on the side. He even had time to draw a simple schematic diagram, and just a few strokes outlined the scene of Earl Hall and Viscount Peo. However, the Earl sat a little higher than the actual situation, so he seemed more imposing and in a more active position.
"Earl Hall, salute you, I will convey the response of the nobles' Union to your war. But before that, I have to ask first..."
Fitch waved his hand and interrupted him, "When you attacked Queen Carol and Crown Prince Delmond, like a wild dog besieging a lion, trying to bite power from the mother and son, and eventually led to the disintegration of the United Kingdom of the Hoya nobles, the war began. I just want to cut off you poisonous sores in the shortest time, and not talk about peace with the poisonous sores that started the war. The peace in your mouth is not real peace, but glossy sugar pills wrapped in black-hearted poison. I don't even have the desire to lick it."
Hobbs said, 'So that's the case', he thought to himself. Yes, why did he just think about the comparison of numbers and forget that justice will win? Whoever can be better for King Andrew's widow and child will be more righteous. His confidence increased slightly. He tilted his head and looked at the clerk next to him. The handwriting of the flying dragon and phoenix recorded Fitch's words without missing a word. It was obvious that the clerk was also very excited and his face turned red.
"I understand. Since the Count refuses peace and is willing to let your family suffer from war, we have to uphold justice and bring thunderous punishment to Tawugang City so that the evil here can be cleaned up."
"Oh." Feiqi replied with a word, then blinked his eyes and raised his chin slightly, about 'Please continue your performance'.
Seeing this, Viscount Peng Ao continued: "As we all know, during the reign of King Andrew, the union of nobles was the cornerstone of kingdom unity, stability and development. When the king asked to form an army to defend his territory, the nobles responded positively..."
Feiqi snapped his fingers with his right hand, then pointed to Viscount Peng Ao's left armpit, and a white note flew out of the crack of his clothes. The note was about one finger wide, one palm long, and was densely packed with black fly-headed small calligraphy. The note quickly flew towards Feiqi. Viscount Peng Ao didn't care about continuing to talk loudly when he saw this, and hurriedly chased after him and stretched out his hand forward.
"Rare!" Hobbs stood up suddenly, immediately turned over the table in front of him, and stopped Peng Ao who was constantly approaching Feiqi. He supported the table with his hands, swinging his legs to the side, and his movements were like a sailor climbing over the railings of the boat. At this time, Feiqi raised his left hand and turned his palm outward. A half-man-high, transparent air hand flew out, slapped Peng Ao's nose directly, knocking him back directly.
The nosebleed down, and Peng Ao found that the air hand was still standing in front of him, and no matter how quickly he moved left and right, he would follow him tightly. Hobbes had turned over the table and found that he had nothing to do. So with Feich's thanks, he proudly returned to the position next to the clerk. He secretly glanced at the new draft in front of the clerk, which was said as follows:
"Baron Hobbes Valen was very loyal and brave, and stood up to protect the Count. The Count easily drove Peng Ao, who was trying to attack, back to his original place with his spell, tolerated him and spared him, and expressed his gratitude to Hobbes. Hobbes was very proud, returned to his seat, and used this to peek at my records..."
Hobbes rolled his eyes. The clerk wrote quickly, many and detailed. Is he recording history or writing novels?
The note was opened in front of Feich. Feich looked at it for a while and suddenly burst into laughter. "Are you a noble or an actor? Who wrote this line for you? It's quite detailed, including how to make me excited and how to resolve it after I get angry. It's really good, it's really good. I saw a big drama from it. Oh, there's something below. The battlefield of the decisive battle is set outside the city of Tawugang? This is a pretty interesting idea."
Feige threw the note to Hobbes, meaning that he would take a look. Hobbes was with soldiers all day long and did not act like a noble, but the noble's etiquette, education and cultivation were actually not at all. After seeing the note, he was furious and slammed the table with his fist. The clerk quickly protected the jumping ink bottle. "It's too much! Do you think you can tease a king at will?"
"It's just the lord for the time being." Feiqi first said to Hobbs, and then asked the clerk to record the note and save it. Then, he summoned the cat-tie stick to his hand and pointed the crystal at the top of the throne. The little angel of holy light flew out and lay on the crystal at the top of the staff with a bright light. At this time, the cat-tie stick projected the sand table terrain around Tawugang City in the form of a three-dimensional image to Viscount Peng Ao.
"Are you going to choose Tawugang City as the preset battlefield?"
Peng Ao covered his nose, but his nose bleeding still did not stop, and he looked very embarrassed. The sudden problem made him feel something was too wrong, but according to the plan he had made in advance, he said with a thorn in his mouth: "Yes, we want the citizens of Tawugang City to see how overestimated their lords are."
"I agree."
"Ah?" Peng Ao was stunned for a moment, then screamed as if he was stepping on his tail: "Ah!"
"I said I agreed, didn't you hear it clearly? I chose the time, you chose the location. Since you chose Tawugang City and I agreed, you have already entered the next stage." Feiqi pointed to the Sand Table Phantom: "There are not many places outside the city suitable for battlefields, you can take a look."
"It is obviously inappropriate to fight in the city, and it will affect the residents. The palace is on the mountain, and you are asking you to line up on the hillside. That is purely bullying you. Just a stone-cattering machine can destroy most of you, and I don't take advantage of this. And I know what you are trying to combine the defeat and capture Tawugang City at the same time." Feiqi pointed out outside the city: "This field is not good, there are winter crops inside, so there are only these two places to choose. This field is a wheat field, which is harvested and the ground is relatively strong, so there is no problem with riding horses. In addition, I can let someone empty the things near this pile of materials. Well... Otherwise, the battlefield is in the wheat field, and the pile of materials is the place where you camp."
"This...this..." Peng Ao's hands trembled. "I don't know..."
"I don't know? I don't know what you are doing?" Feiqi narrowed his eyes and looked at him with fear. "Viss Peng Ao, who wrote that note? Is it you? I'll answer after thinking about it. I will ask you to write a few words, and you can confirm the right handwriting."
"No... it was not written by me." Peng Ao trembled all over and explained honestly. "This is the crystallization of wisdom from the Joint Conference of the Nobles."
"Oh, that's fine. The previous letter of introduction said that Viscount Peng Ao was representing the joint nobles to confirm the matters related to the decisive battle site. Since you have confirmed it, I will talk about it in detail. This location outside Tawugang City has the least impact on farmers and craftsmen, but I also need to arrange them to stay away in advance to avoid being implicated. You must cooperate with this action. Well, I can open King's Avenue to marching and transportation supplies to ensure that you will not be attacked on this road. But if you leave King's Avenue and enter any area of ​​the King's territory, it will be considered a sneak attack on me. Then I'm not polite and will attack you directly. In addition, you can go to the preset battlefield area for construction at any time. I don't mind building a castle, but don't cross the line. My soldiers and I will not cross the line, but will also set up defense lines outside the battlefield. Do you understand all these?"
"Sir, I can't confirm it. I..." Peng Ao knelt on one knee and said, "We don't think you will agree, because no lord will let the enemy go directly to his core city. So I want to hang on the border of the Lighthouse Leader to fight to the decisive battle. We choose the border of the Lighthouse Leader!"
Lighthouse leader, that is, when necessary, the Thunder Army of the Cultivator intervenes and uses the Church of the Thunder Goddess to suppress it? Feiqi weighs the trade-offs. Now is not the time to conflict with the church's spellcasters, which can easily make the situation out of control. So he said firmly: "Don't joke, you have confirmed that you want to choose outside Tawugang City. Things have been decided, and there is no reason to go back on your word. Is the United nobles honest? Do you have credit?"
