Fairy’s Box

Heaven, Alonidan.

The House of Commons was holding a meeting presided over by His Majesty the Deputy Emperor for the first time after the emperor's disappearance. The spirited Alex sat on the pig iron throne and patiently listened to the somewhat lengthy speeches of the deputies.

"There is no doubt that the source of frequent demonic disasters is a large number of cults that spread underground. I have an accurate report here, which comes from the files of the local execution office of Makmukkah over the past 30 years. My assistant and I spent three In a month, I compiled a comparison table of the spread of underground cults and crime rates…”

A congressman from Makmukkah province, with a splint on his arm and multiple bruises on his face, is speaking fiercely:

"The data doesn't lie. The more prevalent these underground cults spread, the higher the crime rate, and they are also the main places where the calamity erupts. If there is no connection between them, my dead wife and daughter will never be Rest your eyes! These **** cults subvert our beliefs, destroy conscience and morality, and subtly change people's cognition to achieve ulterior motives! I propose that all the communicators of underground cults be dealt with severely and implemented together!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

Many congressmen from the hardest-hit areas who looked equally bitter and hated raised their hands one after another, and most of the remaining congressmen agreed with indignation, and some even proposed extreme proposals to execute all cultists together.

"Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!"

Consul Hans grabbed the gavel representing the divine law on the iron plate and struck the bronze bell engraved with the original code several times in a row. After the councilors finally calmed down, he continued:

"Regarding the review of the Magic Disaster Response Act, voting is now open."

The members below were slightly agitated, but they recovered immediately. Behind the crescent-shaped stone platform that radiated downwards, nearly a hundred attendants walked through the aisle holding silver trays and presented them with red-stained bottoms. Ivory Picks.

Soon, the congressmen who got ivory picks lined up in a long line, and walked towards the realm of truth with a solemn face. There stood a statue of a human-shaped jackal holding a scale. The bronze plate on the right side of the scale represents approval, and the bronze plate on the left represents opposition. .

The side with the most votes will overwhelm the other side, and the result of the vote will directly determine whether the bill will take effect. Judging from the overwhelming number of votes in favor, the Magic Disaster Response Bill will be passed 100% of the time.

Twenty minutes later, the scales tilted to the right, and the Demonic Disaster Response Bill was passed quickly with enthusiastic applause from the lawmakers, which means that from now on, anyone who condones and shields cultists will also be punished.

"There has been so much heavy news this time, it's time to lighten the mood with a little good news."

Consul Hans knocked on the initial code, picked up a proposal signed by the Governor Kate, looked around the bright hall below, and said with a smile:

"The Highland Kingdom paid the price for their arrogance. Four days ago, our army entered Edinburgh and completely thwarted the conspiracy of the Free Alliance to stab Gaul. As for that stupid King Wallace, he also paid for his own shortsightedness. The price—his head is on its way to Alonidan."

"God Bless the Empire!!" Archon Isaiah was the first to yell.

"God bless the Empire!" Consul Isabel shouted.

"God Bless the Empire!!!"

Immediately, the consul, the aristocrats, and all the members off the field all stood up one after another and shouted in a frenzy.

From a geographical point of view, Celtic actually includes Celtic Island, Ireland Island and a large number of small and large islands around it. This strategic location that leads to the Atlantic Ocean from the atrium is not only for the empire's rule west of Gaul. It is of great value, and at the same time, Celtic is rich in products and resources.

In history, the northern and southern Celts traded with each other, and during a period of stable rule, only the trade tax between the empire mainland and the Celts could account for one-twelfth of the empire's annual treasury revenue!

One can imagine how prosperous the Celtic maritime trade was.

Although the financial power of the empire has been greatly enhanced now, the wealth of the Highland Kingdom is relatively not that important, but owning this piece of land that can separate the Atlantic Ocean to the west and press Scannavia to the east is undoubtedly an extremely successful expansion movement.

In fact, the history of the contact between the Celts and the Roservian civilization can even be traced back to the early classical conquest era. At that time, the Mediterranean Sea was still dominated by the Carthaginians, and the Carthaginian fleet traveled all over the seas, including Kai ult.

At that time, the Carthaginians bought wood, tin and iron ore from the Celts at that time, and imported cloth, pottery, glass, etc., and made huge profits.

And with the destruction of Carthage by Rosevia, it was transformed into a thorough geographical term through benevolent and tolerant indoctrination. The Celts were completely cut off from the mainland for a while, because the seafaring skills and thirst for money of the early empires were insufficient to sail to such distant regions.

But now, everything has finally returned to normal, and Celtic, a territory that has belonged to the empire since ancient times, has finally returned to the embrace of the motherland.

His Majesty Alex stood up with the crowd, without shouting, but simply lip-synching, but there was also a strong look of joy between his brows.

Sending a fleet to deter the Liberty Alliance, while letting go of the Governor's House to exert its capabilities, finally destroys the Liberty Alliance's attempt to cover the entire Celtic sphere of influence of the Order Alliance. This is his first political achievement since he came to power.

How to say, it can be regarded as a new frontier.

After the frenzy of the crowd continued for a while, Consul Hans reassured everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please cheer for the victory of the League of Order later. Regarding the way of ruling the Highland Kingdom, let's listen to our conqueror's proposal first."

Consul Hans put down the proposal in his hand and said in a serious tone:

"Let me briefly convey his opinion. In the future, the Highland Kingdom will join the Free Alliance as an ally and officially become one of the vassals of the empire. In the new Highland Kingdom, as promised by Emperor Romulus, Pandora will Lilith of the Gong family will become the queen, and the House of Commons of the kingdom will take charge of government affairs in her place. At the same time, the defense of the Highland Kingdom is entirely in charge of the imperial garrison, and the money and consumption of the garrison are also borne by the kingdom’s finances…”

The congressmen listened, and smiled knowingly. It turned out to be the model of garrison rule. Presumably the Celtic governor was not willing to retreat like this, and wanted to make a fortune on the Highland Kingdom.

This model, regardless of the Empire, the Highland Kingdom, the Free Alliance, or the rest of the country, can be reluctantly accepted.

After all, directly annexing the country and playing genocide is no longer acceptable to contemporary civilization. Forcibly annexing, I am afraid that not only the Freedom Alliance will be unprecedentedly united, but even the small partners of the Order Alliance will be estranged.

As for the empire itself, the vague request made by the Governor's Office is not too outrageous. It is an international practice for the victorious country's army to garrison the defeated country itself. If you want to serve as a garrison, it is nothing more than making money.

Everyone knows that the Celtic Governor has taken the blame for the military, and has a huge amount of debt. He can be called the world's largest poor man. Now that he has finally built a piece of fertile land, how could he be willing to give it to others.

A high-ranking knight who has made great achievements wants to make money, and makes money from other countries, what's wrong, let him make money - the premise is that you can't forget to divide the oil and water.

Soon, this proposal was passed by the councilors at a rare speed, which surprised His Majesty Alex who had prepared a lot of rhetoric and prepared all kinds of psychology.

In fact, there is only one reason for the congressmen to be so enthusiastic—the funders behind them have all lent a sum of money to Yale more or less.

In order to recover the money, the creditor must have money first, so this can be regarded as a disguised bundling of interests.

…

Go through the white round arched gate.

The heavy black wooden door creaked open.

Behind the door is the Highland Kingdom Center - the reception hall.

A dim beam of light hung from the dome, and the hall was silent. In the center of the palace, at the end of the scarlet carpet, a golden crown was placed on a precious olive wood throne.

This crown has the rune style of the classical era. It is painted with the mountains of the highlands and the clouds in the north. The Celtic kings wore it to be crowned as kings. It is the symbol of the highest Celtic power.

After the pages of history are turned, the Pandoragon family and the former king of the Fannon family have successively become the masters of this kingdom. The same is lost and found, although their descendants no longer enjoy the sacred halo, they still have the symbol of rulership.

Yale held up the crown, looked at the faint golden light refracted on the golden crown, and stared at the exquisitely carved textures, and couldn't help but admire:

"it's beautiful."

Behind him, Bruno, Charlene, Clark, Nicole, Kara, Lydia, Beverly, Arcia, Pompey, and Nancy couldn't help holding their breath, as if they were worried about seeing a certain scene, but And secretly waiting for it to happen.

"But...too small."

The black-haired knight turned around, and after seeing them all staring at him, he loosened his hands, threw the crown that countless people dreamed of on the table, and then sat on the throne unceremoniously.

"Well... Wallace can't fight, but he's good at choosing furniture."

"call!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Yale leaned his body completely on the back of the chair and enjoyed the king's treatment. Seeing that everyone was still standing on both sides of the ritual table, blinking at himself, he was suddenly unhappy:

"Are you going to let me sit alone? All sit down!"

"…"

Everyone looked around for a while, then slowly pulled out the seats and sat down with an uncomfortable look on their faces.

"It seems that you are still not used to it..."

The black-haired knight observed their twisted and pinched expressions, shook his head and said, "But it doesn't matter, from now on, you have enough time to adapt."

"Enough time?"

Bruno chewed this sentence carefully, and then showed a surprised expression: "Don't you mean... We will be here for a long time, right?"

"Why not?" Yale spread his hands and looked at him solemnly.

"But, but..."

The silver-haired boy muttered for a while, and finally choked out a sentence: "How about the king and his ministers?"

"Dear Bruno, you are too kind."

Yale leaned back on the throne, swayed his body twice, then stretched out his left hand and took the crown from the table: "There are so many palaces here, of course they can go wherever they like, all in all, this is ours. ."

"feel good."

Nicole quickly got used to her seat, staring at the circle of silver-white dense patterns on the ceiling, and said heartlessly: "This place is more beautiful than the hall of the Earl's Palace, I like it."

"Cough cough cough."

Clark cleared his throat, tugged at the arm of the female knight under the discussion table with his hand, and said with a serious face: "Boss, come to us, you should have something to order."

"That's right."

The black-haired knight nodded, put the crown back on the table, and looked around:

"We have conquered the Highland Kingdom, but this is only the beginning. From today, we will find a way to restore order to this country. The first task now is to liquidate the property of the Free Alliance in the Highland Kingdom. I remember Wallace's right to The Papal State is extremely generous, and the gift of teaching property has reached the level of betraying the country, and we must keep this property as our own!"

Take it for yourself... It sounds like a robber...

The crowd was deeply ashamed.

"You don't want this expression!"

Yale was angry and slammed the table hard:

"Do you know how much foreign debt I owe now? The interest alone is an astronomical sum. Even if all the teaching properties are added up, it may not be enough to pay off the debt!"

"We got it!"

They nodded quickly, the debt was the debt of the Governor's Palace, and of course they were obliged to pay it back.

"Also, Lilith will soon be coming to Edinburgh with her rabble, and we need to be prepared so that she does not develop unrealistic delusions."

A cold glow appeared in the eyes of the black-haired knight, and he said coldly:

"This indulgence and looting also has the reasons for the financial difficulties of the Governor's Office, but it is absolutely necessary to spend more time to rectify military discipline and gather up your subordinates. After so many days of looting, it is inevitable that I will feel slack..."

"We understand."

Nicole and Clark spoke up immediately.

"As far as the harpies are concerned, it can be considered revenge now. Don't let them hurt innocent people." Yale looked at Kara and said, "I believe you can do it."

"Wrap it on me." Carla patted her chest and promised to complete the task.

"The food and accommodation of the monsters are also a problem... We still have to use their deterrent power to repatriate them immediately. What can you do?" Although the black-haired knight was asking the crowd, his eyes fell on Pompey.

The old man thought about it carefully, and said slowly:

"It's okay for your Excellency the Governor to station them in the outskirts of the country. How about food... We can buy them by sea for the time being, and we can buy them from nearby when the Highland Kingdom restores order."
