Conquering alien worlds starts from the game

In normal times, Phoenix does not object to marrying a member of the royal family with a lower line of succession in the Rhine royal family.

In most cases, the royal family will not let the crown prince with a high succession order marry the daughter of a great nobleman. After all, everyone understands the relationship between the royal family and the great nobleman. The royal family will not tolerate a certain nobleman becoming the next generation crown prince. mother clan. (When the Chinese feudal civilization lasted to the Ming Dynasty, they deliberately selected concubines from small households. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that they "returned to the past". In Europe, meat and vegetables are not taboo.)

If Phoenix can marry a member of the royal family with a low inheritance order, it will be extremely beneficial to both parties - the member of the royal family can use the strength of his wife's family to win over the prince and duke, and Phoenix can also use the power of the royal family to win over the prince. Her own butt was welded to the earl's number one succession, and her brother would no longer be able to compete with her.

But the premise for all this to be established is that there is no fierce tiger from the Kingdom of Rose in front of Otis's house.

Phoenix had studied at the Royal Academy in the capital before he became an adult, and had close contacts with members of the royal family. At that time, the Kingdom of Rose had not yet found an excuse to seize the Odis family's property, and no prince had ever expressed any love for Phoenix.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that the Rose royal family showed their fangs to the Otis family, that suddenly a prince who was not high or low in the line of succession appeared to express his intention to marry, and any fool could see what the picture was!

This bastard just wants to take advantage of the fire!

"—I don't choose anyone." Phoenix put the two letters back in place with a straight face.

The count was not surprised by the choice of his beloved daughter, but only showed a wry smile: "I knew that my daughter is not someone who will give in easily."

"The third prince, Kolov, is not proposing marriage to me, but to the wealth and fame that the Odis family has accumulated over the past 400 years." Phoenix said with a blank expression, "He thinks he is the Odis family facing the powerful Rowe The only way out for the royal family, he thinks that the Odis family has no choice but to attach to him unconditionally and be used by him. Father, we need to prove with actions that this idiot is just dreaming!"

"Phoenix..."

Phoenix opened his chair and stood up, bowing solemnly to his father: "Please continue to trust me, father, I will never let down your trust, and I will never let the ancestors of the Odis family be ashamed! I will find someone who can The way to get the Otis family out of trouble is to defeat the invading enemy openly!"

Earl Otis stared at his daughter for a long time, and quietly said: "Phoenix, you are going to work with that junior of the Rex family..." After a pause, the old earl said with difficulty, "Do you want to cooperate with him?"

"No, father." Phoenix straightened his waist and said firmly, "I have decided to propose to Black Mage Yang."

Count Otis: "?!"

"He has no interest in 'little girls' like me." Phoenix said calmly, "As long as he receives my marriage proposal, he will understand what I mean... The Odis family is willing to show the highest sincerity and request to be with you Tarantan, form an eternal alliance with Innatrix!"

A woman like Phoenix has the same attitude towards marriage as she does towards a potentially useful tool.

The old earl would find it difficult to marry Charlie Rex, an illegitimate son, and Phoenix would only calmly consider whether the marriage with Charlie Rex was of sufficient value, and he didn't care whether Rex was acquainted with him or not. illegitimate child……

In contrast, there is no doubt that it is more valuable to marry Yang, the lord of Tarantan and the black magician who supports Rex.

Of course, Phoenix knew very well that Yang, who had put her age and seniority with her when they first met, would never marry her, but this desperate attitude has to be brought out...

Two days later.

Yang Qiu was squatting contentedly in the city lord's mansion with an enamel tea mug admiring the construction progress of the mage tower, when Rex hurried to the door with a letter in his mouth.

When handing over the heart, Yang Qiu found that Rex seemed to be holding his breath desperately, as if he would lose control of his emotions immediately if the breathing was louder.

Yang Qiu, who was in a good mood, didn't care about it, put down the tea mug, and took the envelope.

Seeing the contents of the letter clearly, Yang Qiu couldn't help being taken aback.

Rex, who was holding back very hard, turned his face away, hugged his stomach with one hand, and hammered the wall hard with the other.

For the first time in more than 300 years, I experienced being proposed by a lady... Yang Qiu couldn't help laughing.

"This little girl is really good at it."

Sighing and folding the letter paper, Yang Qiu glanced at Rex with disgust: "You still have a good laugh, look at his awareness. At that time, you were asked to try to pursue Phoenix, but you were still unwilling. Look, now he takes Marriage is a pretext to seek an alliance and even look down on you."

Rex: "??"

Can I get shot too? !

Yang Qiu ignored Rex, a political rookie, packed up and went to the city hall to meet Zhao Zhenzhen.

Zhao Zhenzhen took the time to meet with Yang Qiu, after listening to the process, she joked, "Won't you be tempted when the queen of the Otis family proposes to you?"

Yang Qiu was expressionless.

Zhao Zhenzhen also said this casually, the compatriots in front of her with unknown circumstances looked young, but if she really counted it, she must be regarded as a living antique from the Qing Dynasty... If an old monster from the Qing Dynasty lived to the 21st century, there would be no What about talking about love and love? People of her age have passed that stage.

"My Lady Queen clearly wants to seek an alliance not only with Innad, but also with Tarantan. It is probably a life-and-death problem." Zhao Zhenzhen said seriously, "Now we need to be able to A strategic partner is not a bad thing, but there is a problem, the alliance strategy accepted by the Odis family may have a big cognitive error with our alliance strategy."

The history on the earth has proved that throughout the ages, it is difficult to establish a real alliance between countries with adjacent territories-unless the two countries are next to a huge and aggressive common enemy, and the two sides of the cooperation The larger one must not be aggressive, such as the delicate balance of India, Pakistan and China.

These two conditions are indispensable... The Chinese beasts that have been entrenched in the East Asian monster room for thousands of years have only played with themselves for a long time. The two neighboring island countries are still separated by the sea, and they have never seen unity.

The Tarantan family is currently developing slowly. If it is not enough and a little bit profligate, then it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the enemy of the world.

Odis Territory took the initiative to approach, and Tarantan would definitely welcome it.

The only problem is that the number and size of the "enemies we face together after the alliance" in the understanding of the Otis family will be far different from the targets that the Tarantan family regards as opponents...

You want to pull me to form an alliance with you, let's fight little monsters hand in hand, but the enemy on my side is Godzilla, King Kong, Alien Predator, I didn't expect it!

No surprise, no surprise!

Yang Qiu smiled slightly: "A young lady is trying to build an alliance at her own expense. How can we presumptuously judge the consciousness of this lady?"

Zhao Zhenzhen silently compares her thumbs, black is still your black.

Zhao Zhenzhen just made a suggestion, she would not confront Yang Qiu who knew this other world better than her on the grand strategic route, and immediately cooperated with Yang Qiu to write a reply letter and send it to Otis' territory.

A day and a half later, Phoenix saw this euphemistic rejection letter. The black magician Yang felt that he was old and ashamed of his love for Miss Phoenix, but he would always remember the pleasant cooperation experience with the Otis family, and hoped that Can continue to maintain friendly contact with the Otis family.

At the end of the letter, the black magician Yang made a small request for assistance to Miss Phoenix - the railway is being built in the depths of the Tarantan wasteland. There are serious prisoners with long sentences and serious crimes, hoping to borrow Tarantan to build roads.

Seeing this part, Phoenix's hanging heart returned to his stomach.

Yang, the black mage, is sending out a signal to connect the Otis family with the Tarantan family!

Without saying a word, Phoenix sent his younger brother Parker to take the felons in Bugatti City Prison who had served more than ten years in prison to Tarantan, and told him how long he could stay there, but he didn't hear her. Personal letters cannot be returned in advance.

Master Parker refused bitterly, and ran to his father to complain...but to no avail.

A few days later, this young man, who even knew how to hate Inadoli, was put on the convoy to Tarantan...

Send away the younger brother who may also be assassinated, and arrange the spellcaster who originally protected the younger brother—one of the two high-level spellcasters borrowed from Lionel Qiang—to his elder brother, Phoenix is ​​relieved Tone, continue to maintain a high-density correspondence with Innatrix.

In fact, Bugatti City can reach Innatrix on the phone, and if it fails, you can also send a telegram, but for this level of exchanges between the two places, the letter written by the high-level officials of both parties is the best... Under the influence of the "law of language", Words can often have unexpected special effects, at least more reassuring than verbal promises.

While maintaining contact with Inadoli & Tarantan, Phoenix focused more on accumulating food and grass, expanding the army, and mobilizing troops. The alliance with the black magician Yang was only the first step, and the Otis family could not rely entirely on When the undead fight, their own strength has to keep up.

During the period when the two sides were flirting with each other and trying to establish close contact, as time entered mid-April, the weather heated up and the sun dried the road surface hard. Be active all over the continent.

With the revival of the inland caravan, all kinds of local anecdotes that have been stagnant since the beginning of winter have also spread rapidly across the mainland.

The Adler Territory of the Rhine Kingdom is the place where caravans coming from the north and west must pass through to the Innadine Territory in the south and the Odis Territory in the east.

Adler has the most rampant underground population black market in the country, but on the surface, this territory is still prosperous and peaceful, especially along the magic steam train railway, the small towns and villages dotted with stars are full of vitality and popularity. Exuberant, what a scene in the world.

A caravan from the north stopped in a small town, opened a carriage pulled by six-legged lizards on the busiest street in the town to sell the goods from the north, and replenished the food and water needed by the caravan in the town.

"Is there really an undead in Inadoli?" During lunch in a tavern, the people of the caravan heard the drinkers spitting and bragging, and asked curiously.

"That's not it!" The most proud thing of the local drinkers is that they can brag about their knowledge to the caravans from other places. "I have a relative who is an Inadrian who lives in Newing Town. I wrote a letter last month, saying that I saw undead near the wharf in Newing Town!"

... On the players' maps, Newing Town is still dark. No missions have been opened and no monsters have been spawned for players to fight. Of course, this person is bragging.

This caravan from the north also read the newspaper reports about the undead of Tarantan during Maodong in a certain city, but it was still incredible to hear someone personally say who had seen the undead.

The young boss in the caravan, a young man who followed his father's uncle in business, asked curiously, "Can those undead really talk to people and do things for them?"

Braggarts don't know if the undead can communicate with people, but since the newspapers say that these undead will not only help the church exorcise demons, but also help Count Otis's family fight, then they must be able to speak human language, eyes closed Blowing: "That's for sure, my relatives said that those undead are very noisy! They often run around on the street, and they will talk to people when they meet them. I heard that they only give money, and they can even help them repair the roof!"

"Are you talking about the undead or the temporary workers on the street?" The person next to him scolded with a smile.

"Isn't that what those undead are like, just like those odd jobs on the street, they can be called to do things if they have money, otherwise why would they go to help Earl Otis fight? Lan Tan has something to do with it, isn’t it just a waste of money!” the braggart argued spitting.

The little boss of the caravan heard that this person was guessing wildly, and sat back laughingly, and said to his uncle, "It's really interesting, it seems that people here are not afraid of those undead anymore, they made up everything."

The little boss's uncle shook his head: "It's just that the undead didn't come to Adler's side, otherwise the undead in these people's mouths would have changed."

Then, the members of the caravan at this table discussed the next route with each other in low voices.

In previous years, the route of this caravan was fixed. It took the goods brought from the north to Innatrix City to sell, and then bought some goods from the south and west, and then went east along the Barcelo River. Let's go to the territory of Otis to collect some goods from overseas, and then return to the north before August, and return to the north in time for the autumn harvest, and sell the goods brought back to the northerners who have spare money after the autumn harvest.

Innadri is the land transportation hub in the eastern part of the Nabaron Continent. Caravans from all directions meet here. For the spices from the south, the caravans coming from the south can also buy the goods coming from the north more easily.

Merchant ships sailing offshore can also carry goods from north to south, but pirates are rampant, merchant ships are easily robbed, and accidents frequently occur, the goods transported by merchant ships are not necessarily much cheaper than those transshipped by inland caravans.

If Nadli just changed its lord, it would have no effect on the caravan... In Nadli, a place that relies entirely on the ground for food, at least a quarter of its finances depend on the caravans Supported by income, whoever becomes the lord will not drive the caravan out.

But the new lord is a fief made by the undead, and there are still undead running around in the whole collar, which makes these caravans a little worried-who knows whether those undead understand human language, and the new leader can control them!

The owners of the caravan discussed it for a long time, but they still haven't decided whether to go to Inadali this year. There is no way, they can only stay in the town for two days first, and then check the situation.

On the first day, only this caravan stayed in the town, but on the second day, two more caravans came.

Three large caravans and several hundred members of the caravan occupied all the hotels in the small town with a total of 3000 to [-] people, including the larger square. They all know that the other party has the same idea as their own.

On the third day, another caravan with a size of [-] people came...

"Forget it, continue to walk down and look around, or turn around again."

At noon, in the crowded town tavern, the first caravan to arrive in the town, several family members discussed for a long time without coming up with an idea, and the oldest one made the decision.

The price of spices and sugar in the extreme south is the cheapest in Innadril. If you go around Innatrix and go to the territory of Odis to buy them, it will be [-]% more expensive... This guy who supports half a town in his hometown A caravan attaches great importance to every profit.

In the afternoon, when the caravan was packing up and loading the car, and was about to leave early the next morning, the townspeople suddenly heard yelling, shouting that Inadali had come, that there were dead spirits mixed in, and so on.

Several owners of the caravan looked at each other, put aside what they were doing, and told the guys to keep an eye on the caravan, and run towards the town gate among the townspeople.

Residents of small towns in any place would not reject such a popular activity as watching the excitement. When the owners of the caravan rushed to the gate of the town, sweating profusely, the gate of the town was already blocked.

The tallest young boss looked out on tiptoe, and saw... there were several carriages parked at the gate of the town, negotiating with the town militia.

The person negotiating with the militia was a very capable human being, wearing the uniform of an official operator of the Rhine Kingdom and wearing a weapon on his waist.

There were humans and orcs driving the carriage, and the two orcs didn't seem to be very friendly to the locals. When they looked at the townspeople crowded at the gate of the town, the expressions on their faces were quite unfriendly.

The most eye-catching thing is the undead standing next to the human in the operator's uniform.

The undead was wearing a dusty white short-sleeved jumper (actually a white T-shirt), a pair of weird pants with ties at the waist and trouser legs so short that both bony legs were exposed (actually big shorts) ), carrying a thick-looking backpack with solid fabric quality (produced by the prison factory in G Province, the style is ugly but durable), and he is curiously turning his bare skull head, looking around.

The undead in clothes and carrying a backpack stood together with the capable operator in the official uniform of the Rhine Kingdom. This weird scene not only opened the eyes of the townspeople, but also the militiamen on duty at the gate of the town were also very confused. During the conversation, a pair of eyes kept glancing at the undead.

The two sides stumbled and negotiated for a while, and the operatives showed the documents with the seal of the Innatrix City Hall and the decree with the lord Innatrix's coat of arms, and the militia finally accepted the fact that this team was indeed official personnel. In order to let the cold sweat go, he yelled for the townspeople to get out of the way.

This team composed of official operators, orcs, and undead entered the town openly, ignoring the frenzied crowds on both sides of the street, and headed straight for the town hall.

Next, the operator who worked tirelessly from Innadali had another time-consuming and laborious communication with the local mayor...

The local mayor was just a servant of a certain baron's family who "changed his job". After struggling for a while, he didn't dare to stop the person sent by the great lord of the neighboring territory. He simply sent the guests away and closed the door to thank them, hiding out of sight and out of mind.

Two hours after entering the town, an operator finally obtained a local permit, and brought the small convoy to the busiest street in the town, set up a stall, and showed the locals the products they brought.

"Cheap and affordable Tarantan spices, come take a look. The retail price of a pack of fine chili noodles is only five coppers! The high-quality garlic is eight coppers per catty! There is also ginger! The bagged soy sauce that can replace salt is two coppers per pack! "

"Talantan High-quality Undead Cloth!"

"Talantan's high-quality ready-made garments are made of superior materials that are more solid than canvas. They are warm and thick and are not afraid of the sun. They will not be worn out and can be worn casually! The retail price is only half a silver coin a set!"

When the operator stood behind the booth and yelled, the undead who came with him was also standing behind the booth, holding up the goods with a pair of bone claws, and enthusiastically showing them to the townspeople.

The townspeople, who were just watching the excitement, turned their eyes back and forth between the products placed on the stalls and the undead who enthusiastically displayed the details of the products. Two eyes were simply not enough...

When the courageous townspeople stepped forward bravely and tried to buy really cheap Tarantan clothing (old denim clothes sold by the catty imported from S province), the undead who knew how to display the goods in a friendly and enthusiastic manner , came out from behind the booth with a suit of ready-made clothes.

Amidst the exclamation of the townspeople, the undead stood two meters in front of the bold townsman who dared to eat crabs, shook off the clothes, gestured to the townspeople's body shape from the air, and nodded , seems to think that the size of this suit of clothing can be worn by this townsman, and enthusiastically handed the ready-made clothes to the other party.

When the undead came to him, the townspeople already regretted why they had to show off the limelight, and they were stunned for a while before thinking of handing over the money.

Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, under the watchful eyes of countless eyes, the undead made the first business deal with this townsman.

This undead can also give change—after putting the silver coins into the money box on the booth, it took out five ten-denomination copper coins from it in front of countless people, and handed them to the townspeople.

After the transaction was completed, the onlookers were more amazed than seeing the performance of the parade circus, and all kinds of exclamations were heard.

The caravan owners who were watching in the crowd all stretched their necks and opened their mouths wide.

The young caravan boss obviously had an adventurous spirit, struggling to squeeze out of the crowd, took out coins, casually pointed to a commodity, and stared at the undead with piercing eyes.

The hideous and terrifying skeleton really understood his intentions, took the goods designated by the small caravan boss and handed them to him, took the money, and gave him change.

The small owner of the caravan holding the goods excitedly squeezed back to his family, and said excitedly: "Father, uncle, Inadoli can still go, these undead can also do business!"
