Chapter 1,143: Borrowing Strength, the Prince and the Grand Duke(2/2)
At this time, within the light film, a man with a solemn expression, wearing a standard brocade dress and gray-haired temples, appeared in the mirror he held in his hand. He had a serious expression and seemed to be calm and confident. He was obviously a man who had been in power for many years.
"Uncle Jonathan, that's just the way it is."
"I suspect that bitch Anna has secretly reached out to the giant city of Lentax."
"There is also the Calamity Raven Church. They did not choose to give in as you said. Instead, they were dormant in the city and seemed to be planning something."
"Without your Shadow Dragon Guard here, I won't be able to collect enough information."
"But these days, I feel very bad, especially after Da Majia disappeared."
Prince Carter looked worried, like a child looking for an adult to complain to.
It's rare to see the bohemian Prince Carter behave like this.
The figure in the mirror listened patiently to his story, then pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.
"Something isn't quite right."
"According to the report from the Shadow Dragon Guard, that girl Anna should still be in the giant city of The Hague."
"She is overseeing the formation of the Kingdom's Seventeenth Fleet."
“The Hague dock is where she devotes most of her energy.”
"The three red archbishops of the Calamity Raven Church broke the Earth Dragon Mirror used to communicate with me."
"Those heretical bugs were very angry. It seems that there was something wrong with your original message."
The voice of the person in the mirror is deep and powerful, like a big leather drum.
He is Jonathan Pendragon.
In terms of age, he is slightly older than King Guser, but he has withstood the baptism of dragon blood.
Now that he still has more than two hundred years to live, he can be said to be in the prime of life.
Just when Prince Carter was about to say something, Grand Duke Jonathan spoke first.
"Forget it, I understand your character."
"The matter of the Calamity Raven Church is not worth mentioning."
"Let's put aside little girl Anna's actions for now. She doesn't dare to directly take your life."
"What worries me more is the attitude of the Lancaster family."
"From your description, Marquis Henry seems to have become hostile to you."
"But I can't figure out where this hostility comes from."
"Is it because you have a crush on his little daughter Penny?"
"But for a marquis' daughter to be matched with a legitimate prince like you, it's quite a feat."
Grand Duke Jonathan was a little confused. The development of the matter had gone beyond his expectation and evolved in an unpredictable direction.
After hearing his words, Prince Carter also became hesitant.
"Probably not..."
"At least when talking about this issue, Marquis Henry never showed displeasure."
"Is it Anna's bewitchment?"
"The competition will be held in two days, and I will have to accompany Penny to participate."
"Uncle Jonathan, I always feel like something is wrong!"
There is always a lingering worry in Prince Carter's heart, which is a sign of lack of security.
Ever since Da Majia disappeared, he had become suspicious.
Archduke Jonathan in the mirror sighed leisurely.
Only he and the late queen knew that Carter was his biological son.
Since Jonathan is also a direct descendant of the royal family, Carter still has royal blood flowing in his body.
"child."
"It's actually very easy for you to do now."
"Either leave the giant city of Lentax as soon as possible and go to the giant city of Dabos."
"That's our territory."
Duke Jonathan throws out a solution.
But Prince Carter shook his head.
"No, I have to stay in the city until the competition is over."
"The conference itself is not important, but it represents Penny's coming-of-age ceremony."
This boy still remembers his mission to pick up girls and is unwilling to leave the giant city of Lentax.
Hearing Carter's words, Duke Jonathan frowned immediately.
He subconsciously wanted to reprimand him, but he resisted the urge.
"I sent people from the great city of Dabos to protect you."
This answer satisfied Prince Carter, and he couldn't help but grinned and asked.
"Who are you going to send?"
"The Dabos Gladiator Twins, and the seventh-level fire magician Doris Hall, she happened to be in the Dabos Mage Tower for a study tour."
"Three legendary strong men are fully capable of dealing with the situation in the giant city of Lentax."
"The main reason is that time is too tight, so we can only dispatch manpower from the nearest giant city under the influence."
"In addition, you can ask the storm knights and high-level dragon eagle knights outside the city to enter the city and stand by."
"Coupled with the life-saving items in your hands, it should be enough to solve the problem."
Archduke Jonathan quickly proposed a new plan.
That is to dispatch more legendary powerhouses to support.
The giant city of Dapos is about 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers away from here, so it is relatively quick to deploy manpower.
"Then let's do it."
After much thought, Prince Carter couldn't think of a better way. It would be good to be protected by a new master.
So he simply agreed.
Then he chatted a few words with Duke Jonathan about the situation in the kingdom, and his voice became lower and lower.
…
Still in the Marquis's castle.
Marquis Henry was sitting in front of his study, with a letter spread out in his palm.
This is an instruction from Princess Anna.
In the past two days, she has sent more elite soldiers from the east.
There are even three legendary strong men among them, who have spent a lot of money.
The Marquis can recruit four legendary strong men from the city.
In total, there are seven legends, most of whom are low-level legends.
But there is also one who is a high-ranking legend!
This power cannot be underestimated in any giant city.
With a population of tens of millions in the giant city of Lentax, there are naturally more than just four legends.
It's just that the other legendary strong men cannot be dispatched by Marquis Henry.
In addition, relevant arrangements have been made for the arena, and there will be a seventh-level magic circle to seal it.
Strive to achieve success every time.
After thinking for a while, Marquis Henry placed the letter on the oil lamp and burned it to ashes.
Just in case, he also arranged a way out. If the matter was exposed, Penny would go to the eastern coast and accept the protection of Princess Anna.
As a condition, Princess Anna promised him new benefits.
This princess has great goals and is about to explore overseas.
She promised to divide a super-giant city-level archipelago into the future and hand it over to Marquis Henry to rule and control.
After she ascended the throne, she made Henry a duke and established a grand duchy belonging to the Lancaster family.
This was a temptation that Marquis Henry could not refuse.
The Grand Duchy is infinitely close to the status of king!
