Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

The Port of Dunkirk and the Port of Calais both belong to the Dunkirk Barony owned by Christine, but the former reaches the border of the Principality of Belgium not far away, while the latter is the closest port to Elf Island. The planned development focus and the Mage Tower will be built in Calais.

Christine took the lead in organizing the "North Atlantic Treaty Organization" in order to seize the priesthood of Poseidon. She was not afraid of others knowing this was a conspiracy. Obviously, Archduke Fernand of the Principality of the Netherlands should have invited him for talks for this matter. The suppression of pirates and convoys were just excuses.

However, since it was personally invited by Archduke Fernand, Christine had to give face to attend. As usual, a hundred guard cavalry, led by Knight Bella, escorted the carriage and set off first. Christine took Alicia, Carlottani, and Onelia and teleported directly to the city of Lille in Calais County. .

The entire Dunkirk Port took this opportunity to be renovated. Six hundred infantry, two hundred city guards, and fifty cavalry were already the standard for city garrison, and were more than enough to defend a town.

The meeting was held in the auditorium of the town hall. This wooden-dominated building with stone supplements could accommodate more than a hundred people without any problem. As the host, Christine needed to arrive in advance.

Lord Pierre Legrand, who is in charge of territorial diplomacy, along with the mayor and others, are waiting outside the auditorium to welcome the lord. This meeting will be handled by him, and there must be no defects in etiquette.

Seeing Christine getting out of the car, everyone immediately bowed and greeted: "Salute to you, Your Majesty the Duke."

Pierre Legrand then reported: "The Principality of Belgium sent someone to inform that Archduke Fernand's motorcade is still half an hour away from Dunkirk. The venue for the meeting has been arranged. Please take a look at it, the Duke." ”

Kristine waved her hand: "No need to look anymore, you all can go do your work."

Everyone bowed and left, leaving only Lord Pierre Legrand to accompany the Duke to the port area for a look. After a while, an attendant announced that Archduke Fernand's motorcade had arrived.

Ten knights and two hundred elite cavalry escorted more than ten carriages to the town square. After the motorcade parked and the red carpet was laid, Archduke Fernand got off the car and blew the welcome horn. Christine greeted him at the steps in front of the auditorium. After some polite courtesy, he led the entourage of both parties into the meeting venue.

The reason why the Principality of Bihe did not ambush Christine on the road from Lille to Dunkirk was because it was impossible to determine whether the person in the carriage was Duke Stuart. The most common method used by nobles to avoid assassination is to build plank roads openly and covertly. Even if you see the target getting on the carriage with your own eyes, there may be someone else on the way.

With the opponent's security force, it is impossible for the Principality of Belgium to send people to follow without being noticed. Moreover, even if it is discovered that the target has been replaced midway, how will the ambush be notified? If this kind of thing cannot be guaranteed to kill in one hit, there will never be a second chance. Besides, no matter what excuse is used for this kind of assassination, it will extremely affect the international reputation of the Principality of the Netherlands.

Therefore, Archduke Fernand chose to go to the appointment as planned, and it was Duke Stewart himself who came to confirm with his own eyes. His idea was to see if he could get it at the negotiation table, and if not, declare war on the spot. Although the subsequent attacks were somewhat unceremonious, at least they occurred after the declaration of war, so they can be somewhat defended.

As for his own safety, under the attack of the eight legends, the other party should not have time to take care of him. If he is really unfortunate enough to die, it can be regarded as a sacrifice for the great Poseidon. You can't trap a wolf if you don't want to give up your child, and you can't trap a gangster if you don't want your wife. If you want to kill the other party, you have to take risks.

There were three people on each side participating in the negotiations. Stewart was led by Christine, Lord Pierre Legrand, and Carlotani as the recorder. The Duchy of Bihe is the home of Archduke Fernand, hereditary honorary baron Peter in charge of diplomacy, and a ninth-level mage who serves as secretary.

Because Christine was already at the legendary level, and Alicia also had the strength of a legendary warrior after transforming into a dragon form, the legendary mages and legendary knights from the Principality of Bihe accompanied her openly.

Not long after the meeting began, a henchman dressed as an accompanying official sent a message to the ambushed legend through a portable communication circle. It is quite normal for Archduke Fernand to travel with a portable communication circle. This thing is very big for an individual or a team of adventurers, but it is nothing for an official convoy.

The magic letter was delivered to the hiding place of the six legendaries. A chamberlain in charge was overjoyed after reading what was written on it. The only people who came with Duke Stuart were Alicia, Carlottani, and Onelia. It is speculated that the latter two are only masters. Of course, even if they are legends, it does not matter, because the Principality of Bihe Eight legends are prepared.

Ten masters were originally arranged to deal with Carlotani and Onnelia, but in order not to reveal the plan, they were not told about the operation at all. Instead, they were individually instructed not to leave their posts without permission, and to carry out the orders immediately once His Excellency the Grand Duke gave them. , but it is no longer needed.

Everyone was ready to act immediately when the second magic letter arrived.

In the town hall, Archduke Fernand said first: "Duke Stewart, I have a suggestion regarding the eradication of pirates and escort."

"Archduke Fernand, please speak."

"I hope to purchase an active warship from Stewart's Navy."

Christine asked in a puzzled tone: "Your Excellency the Grand Duke, I heard that the Principality of Belgium is buying active warships from various navies. I am very curious about why you are doing this. The evil disaster has passed, and most of the pirates have been wiped out. There should be no use for so many warships in a short time. Besides, with your shipbuilding capabilities, you can build enough warships in a few years."

Archduke Fernand was filled with hatred when he saw the other party's knowing expression, but his face remained calm. He can't say that what you are doing now is already shaking the foundation of the great Poseidon. One is a mortal and the other is a true god. Saying this is a sign of weakness.

So he came up with the excuse he had already prepared: "Duke Stuart, the Principality of Bihe is planning to launch a concentrated campaign against the orcs' maritime power in the coming summer. Naturally, a large number of warships are needed."

"The sea power of the orcs?" Christine was stunned after hearing this. Do the orcs have the sea power? In addition to large rafts, their ships are canoes. They must have no problem transporting soldiers, but they themselves would not believe it if they could fight at sea.
