Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

The city of Rotterdam was occupied by an army led by Stewart in less than a day. After the news came out, it attracted the attention of all parties. As the two "ratchet bombs" used by Alicia did not work, everyone just lamented that Archduke Fernand was unlucky. After all, this thing was given to Alicia by the human side as compensation, so no one thought much about it.

However, it cannot be said that Archduke Fernand was completely unlucky. At least when Stewart led the army to attack Rotterdam, he returned to Amsterdam and escaped.

Alicia first took people to the temple of Poseidon in Rotterdam to donate gold coins. She was politely received by the bishop. If nothing else happens, these territories will belong to the Stewart family in the future. Even if they know that the lord will promote the Dragon God faith in the future, that will be a long time later. There is no need for the Poseidon Church to treat them coldly now.

The Principality of Benedictine is the same as other countries. Although the Ludwik family is the sacred bloodline of Poseidon, and belief in Poseidon is the mainstream in the country, the number of people who believe in other gods is more than one-fifth. However, the largest temple in the city is It must be Poseidon's.

The next step was to reward meritorious deeds and reward the three armies. Alicia ordered the logistics officer to buy a large amount of meat, which made all the soldiers very happy.

Some people are happy, but others are worried. Archduke Fernand is currently sitting in front of Pope Saskia Van Acht at the headquarters of the Poseidon Church. His head is hanging down and he seems to be thinking about something, but in fact he is thinking about nothing. Thinking about it, I was just in a daze.

Now there is only one master-level druid, one fifth-level mage, two knights, and less than 200 soldiers left in the city of Amsterdam. Although there is still a mage tower, no one can tell after seeing the battle situation in Rotterdam. I dare say I can hold it.

If the opponent blows up the mage tower again, it will be a death in battle, and it will be over. If you are lucky enough to survive and be captured, you will eventually die because you cannot afford compensation. Sacred blood is not a gold medal for immunity from death. Everyone on the continent must abide by the three major conventions.

Besides, there are so many people in the Ludwick family, and Archduke Fernand has more than a dozen brothers and sisters, none of them are of divine blood. Inheriting the family business has nothing to do with these secondary children, and whether they are beheaded or demoted to slaves after defeat has nothing to do with them.

What's more important is that many second-born children of nobles have joined major churches because of their pastoral talents. There are many members of the Ludwick family in the Poseidon Church, so even if Archduke Fernand and his entire family die, the sacred bloodline cannot be cut off.

It had only been a few months since he took over the position of Grand Duke and he had only enjoyed the benefits of power. He didn't want to lose his current position, let alone die, so he came to the headquarters of Poseidon Church to seek help. But to his disappointment, Pope Saskia van Acht was helpless.

Suddenly, Archduke Fernand raised his head and said loudly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "Your Majesty, as long as I stay at the church headquarters, I will not be in danger. Can the people led by Stewart still rush in and arrest me?" Isn’t it human?”

"what?"

Pope Saskia Van Acht was obviously taken aback after hearing this. Such a refreshing and refined idea left him speechless. It took him a long time to say: "Archduke Fernand, how could you do this? This is The sanctuary of the great Poseidon.”

Archduke Fernand's spirit was obviously a little unstable at this moment. He said loudly: "But I am the sacred bloodline of the great Poseidon. How could I fall into the hands of those despicable people! I will not leave."

Pope Saskia Van Acht was also confused and didn’t know what to do for a while. If Archduke Fernand doesn't leave, he can't force him to leave. If word spreads, the face of the Principality of Bihe, the face of the church, and even the face of the great Poseidon will be lost.

He could finally see that Archduke Fernand looked clearly irritated. In this case, persuasion would be useless. It was better to ask the other party to calm down.

So he stood up and said, "I'll excuse you in advance."

Unexpectedly, Archduke Fernand really stayed in the church. He was broken, but Pope Saskia Van Acht was not. For the time being, I had to provide him with good food and drink, and then pray to the great Poseidon in the hope of getting enlightenment on what I should do.

After Poseidon Velko learned about this from his prayers, he gritted his teeth with hatred, and had secretly decided that when Archduke Fernand died and came to the Kingdom of God, he would be subjected to those tortures again, once a day.

As a result, Archduke Fernand stayed at the church headquarters for two days, drank himself unconscious and was sent back to the castle. That night, when he got up thirsty in the middle of the night to drink water, he fell off the bed in front of two servants and died.

The next day, when Stewart led the army to arrive outside Amsterdam, the thieves lurking in the city sent this shocking news.

"Is Archduke Fernand dead?"

Everyone was surprised when they heard the news, especially Alicia. She would not believe that this exaggerated way of death was not the work of the true God.

But what does this have to do with me, so I ordered: "Attack according to the plan."

"As ordered!"

Due to the war, Archduke Fernand let his wife and children hide in the castle. As for the brothers and sisters, didn't I say before that they are just ordinary people without noble status, and the war has nothing to do with them.

Now people died suddenly, the castle was in chaos, and no one was left to care about the war. It wasn't until Stewart led the army to approach the castle that Archduke Fernand's eldest son was reluctantly pulled into the hall by everyone.

It is true that he is the heir, but he is only an heir. There are many things that officials and knights don't know as much. After hearing the whole incident and understanding the current situation, his mentality collapsed.

The enemy had already reached the outside of the castle. He knew this, but what he didn't know was that he couldn't surrender because he couldn't afford the compensation. In fact, if you think about it, you can clearly see that it is impossible for Archduke Fernand to tell this kind of news that makes everyone despair, even to his own family.

This is not the end of Archduke Fernand's death. If he cannot pay the ransom and compensation, his family will not be able to escape. Otherwise, the head of the family, who is in his 70s and 80s, will take the blame at a critical moment. How is this possible?

In other words, Archduke Fernand's eldest son is now theoretically the Grand Duke of the Principality of Belgium, but in fact he may die before the succession ceremony can even be held. Who can not be disappointed with this matter?

He could only comfort himself: Fortunately, there was still a mage tower, so there was no way there was a third ratchet bomb in Stuart Territory, and even if it was, it couldn't still be used.
