Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 181 Countermeasures (2)

Victor looked at the lonely face of his old friend Luke for many years and felt uncomfortable. He comforted Luke and said, "Since your Majesty has made up his mind to change, then wait for him. Just as you said. , This empire belongs to the Fernando family, not your Redia family."

"but……"

"As long as the Royal Knights in Orlando can still be invincible, what does it matter? Besides, the empire still has me, the great magician."

"you?"

"Yes, Luke, you should know my strength. To say a word of no humility, even if there are 100,000 rebels besieging Fernando City at this moment, I can take them..." At this point, Victor will spread out his palm. Squeeze firmly.

Luke looked at Victor. The latter's serious face showed that he was not joking, so Luke said, "Don't you always dislike nobles?"

Victor said without concealment: "Yes, because I came from a commoner, I was squeezed out by those noble children, so I hate those guys very much in my heart. But you must also know that maybe there are too many injustices in this empire. It’s fair, but without the asylum of this country, those who could barely survive will live even more miserable lives, and may even lose their lives! The catastrophe hundreds of years ago, I don’t want to repeat it."

"Yes," Luke nodded and said, "At this point, I'm the same as you think."

Victor suddenly changed the subject and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Luke, this time I need your help."

Luke asked strangely: "Old man, why are you so polite?"

Victor said: "Today in the Royal Arena, Bailey used the'Void Protection', which used the power of space chaos, which is definitely not what his current strength can do."

Luke nodded and said, "Although I don't know anything about magic, maybe Bailey used any magic item?"

Victor nodded lightly and said: "You have reached the point, Luke. Both'Void Protection' and'Time and Space Gate' use the same power of space chaos, although'Void Protection' is only level 7 magic. The'Gate of Time and Space' is a level 9 magic, which can store the'Void Protection' magic in the staff called'Thunder God's Wrath', and it doesn't affect Bailey's normal use at all. These abilities are also I can't underestimate it, maybe his true strength is not below me."

"Which one of Senat's you mean..."

"That's right, Senat's Scroll of Time and Space is very likely to be the same person who made the Void Protection today."

"Are you sure? Victor."

"No, I'm not sure." Victor's words were far beyond Luke's expectations: "But there are not many people on this continent who can have this kind of strength, aren't they? Besides, Luke, we can let it go. Is a powerful magician out of our sight?"

"I see, Victor." Luke nodded.

While Luke and Victor were having a secret conversation together, the Imperial Secretary of State Chadrevis and his wife Mary Shelley were also discussing something in the secret room of their home.

Chad fiercely threw the precious crystal wine glass in his hand to the ground, and several hundred gold coins were instantly wiped out.

Seeing the broken glass on the ground, Chad felt a little better in his heart. He raised his head and said to his wife: "Your Majesty is very prestigious today. He not only criticized me, but also replaced a lot of them. Subordinate. Huh, you want to seize my power before the wings grow hard?"

Shelley said disdainfully: "Just rely on him Fernando XIII? He is only supported by the Royal Knights. If only by himself, I am afraid that his orders will not be transmitted to the palace."

Chad nodded and said, "Although the imperial capital is vast, there are not many cities that are actually controlled by the imperial capital. Apart from the imperial capital Fernando City, only the two ports of Sunrise City and Sea Breeze City are relatively large, and the others are some. Insignificant small city."

"It is very stupid for your Majesty to take advantage of the question to change the subordinates of Luke and me on a grand scale. Let me forget about my subordinates. After all, they are mainly responsible for the affairs of the imperial capital. Even if the novice is not familiar with it, it is just a delay; Luke’s subordinates are all experienced tax officials. I would like to know how much tax this year can be collected. I’m afraid Luke can’t sleep now, right? Haha!"

Shelley said displeased: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why do you still call that? He is just lucky, and he is the only son of Fernando XII. What qualifications does he have to be the throne on his own!"

Chad shook his head and said: "You don't understand, I won't pay more attention to it in normal times. If you accidentally say something when facing your Majesty, it will be troublesome. Oh, by the way, the chambers of commerce under your current name Time to narrow down, those businesses that are not very glorious, temporarily let go, I guess your Majesty will take action soon."

"En, okay. It's just a pity, now is a good opportunity to make money."

"Don't worry, my dear," Chad said, "There will be opportunities. Also, if you have the opportunity, you will put most of your energy on the procurement of weapons, food, etc. The secrets of these things Some. If I guessed correctly, we will make a lot of money!"

Speaking of this, Chad put his hand on the stove that was burning vigorously in the back room, and said, "Look, this winter is really cold, I think it will be colder in the north?"

"You mean?"

"You said, if a large herd of cattle and sheep freezes to death in the cold winter, what should the people on horseback do?"

"I see, but what use are weapons?"

"This is even simpler, dear," Chad said with a smile: "Since this year's tax revenue can't be collected, tomorrow the imperial empire's originally bad finances will definitely have problems, the big one. Maybe it's There will be a second Senat, a third Senat..."

"It's still your flexible mind," Shelley said in a complimentary tone: "The biggest business in my life is you."

Chad suddenly smiled and said to Shelley: "Actually I have something bigger, haven't you seen it?"

"You fellow," Shelley said with a smile, "Bad things in my head."

The shadows of the two people on the wall slowly overlapped and began to shake violently. The most primitive voice between the man and the woman echoed in the secret room.
