Chapter 388 Death Swamp, Stropa
Smith was delighted and said anxiously: "Have you thought of a solution?"
Osvaldo VII nodded slightly and said, "My dear, do you still remember Stropa who disappeared more than ten years ago?"
"Stropa?!" Smith trembled all over when he heard this. How could Smith forget this name? Once upon a time, the meaning of the four words Stropa was the highest peak of the cultivation world in the Kingdom of Arrecon! It was a legendary existence!
"Well...this..." Smith hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, of course, Weichen Stropa still remembers it, but he has disappeared for more than ten years, and there are even legends that he is no longer in this world... What are your plans when you mention him now? Please make it clear!"
Osvaldo VII smiled and naturally picked up some pool of water and poured it on his body. Then he said slowly: "How can a powerful person like Stropa be dead if he dies? He is living well now, but he has just lived in seclusion under my order!"
"Stropa is a sinister person, but he is a little stubborn. His obsession with the growth of strength has reached an incredible level. It is precisely because of this that he would look for people to discuss with each other in order to continue to improve his cultivation in actual combat. The title of killing people is like a numb and the name of the God of Killing on Earth was also left at that stage..."
Smith echoed: "Indeed, I remember that I had not inherited the title of Grand Duke of the Kingdom at that time, but when I met my father almost every day, my father would frown. He mentioned this Stropah intentionally or unintentionally, saying that he had seriously disrupted the order and development of the kingdom, and that he was preparing to send troops to encircle him!... Later, as Stropah suddenly disappeared, I once thought that the army sent by my father played a role. It turned out that he was still alive now..."
Osvaldo Seven smiled unanimously and said, "Killing a cultivator with high cultivation is not good for the kingdom in any aspect. Not to mention the fact that Stropa's ability cannot be used by the country is a pity. Just talking about the losses to killing him are quite huge. The kingdom doesn't want to bear such losses at all, and there is no way to bear such losses! Therefore, sending troops to encircle Stropa is only a choice for the subordinates in helplessness."
"Actually, considering this matter from another perspective will be relatively easy to solve. Isn't Stropa's ultimate goal just to improve his own cultivation and achieve his limits? Then I will satisfy him! In this way, Stropa no longer has to show up in the world and hide and study hard!"
"Oh!" After hearing this, Smith finally realized it and said, "So that's it! Your Majesty is really smart! In this way, we can subdue Stropa without bloodshed, which is like imprisoning him invisibly!"
"Just..." Smith paused, thought of a new question, and then asked: "But, with Stropa's cultivation level, it has been invincible in our Arrecon Kingdom. What kind of things have you used to attract his attention and interest and make him live in seclusion for more than ten years?"
"Your dear, you are so noble!" Osvaldo VII smiled loudly and said, "Others don't know. As the kingdom's grand duke, wouldn't you? Just to the northwest of our Ariken Kingdom, there is a place that is rarely visited all year round. It is always shrouded in a thick fog. People are commonly known to that place as the 'death swamp'!"
"Death Swamp?! You... did you let Stropa go to the Death Swamp?" Smith said in shock: "According to the royal secrets, this Death Swamp hides the most essential practice techniques of our ancestors in the Arrecon Kingdom! As long as someone can obtain these techniques, he will definitely dominate the continent and no one can defeat it!... However, Death Swamp is an extremely dangerous world. Not only does it have a poisonous fog that never dissipates throughout the year as a natural barrier, but there are countless high-level source beasts living in it! Not to mention ordinary people, even practitioners with good cultivation enter, they will still be able to go without returning, and they will never see the corpse even if they die..."
Osvaldo VII waved his hand: "That's just an ordinary master. Monsters like Stropa, I believe he will definitely find the martial arts hidden in the swamp of death! After all, Stropa is a rare genius in our Arrecon Kingdom in a century! How could he die so easily?"
"But your Majesty..." Smith still felt something was wrong: "Even if Stropa is still alive, even if he has learned the martial arts in the swamp, how can you guarantee that he will not massacre the world again after he comes out and make the kingdom full of bloody storm?"
"It's very simple!" said Osvaldo VII: "Because I have the means to absolutely control him!...I remember, when I told him that there was something in the swamp of death that could improve his cultivation, in exchange, he was asked to sign a contract with me! In my lifetime, he must obey me and be loyal!...I believe that no matter how strong Stropa is, he cannot be stronger than the power of the contract!"
"That's how it is!" Smith breathed a long sigh after hearing this: "Your Majesty is still thoughtful!"
Osvaldo VII glanced at Smith and said, "I now mention this Stropa to you. The purpose of this is to send him to do his job. A person who has been missing for more than ten years and has been almost completely forgotten in his country. Isn't it the most appropriate to carry out your mission of destroying the Cao family? No matter how powerful his Tongtian Empire is, he cannot push this matter to our Ariken Kingdom?... Are you satisfied with this arrangement?"
In fact, with Smith's smart head, he had long thought of the true intentions of Osvaldo VII and Testropa. Now, after hearing Osvaldo VII speak out in person, Smith quickly bowed to the ground and responded respectfully: "Your Majesty's great kindness to me, I will never forget it!"
"Don't rush to thank me!" Osvaldo VII waved his hand and said, "Although I have found a suitable candidate for revenge for your parents' family, I still have to find a way to ask Stropa to come out of the mountain. I can only write you a secret letter to bring you to Stropa... I do this, you should understand, right?"
"I understand!" Smith said loudly: "Your Majesty is unwilling to publish such shocking news as Stropa's still alive in the world, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to the kingdom and unnecessary turmoil to the social order. Therefore, he ordered his minister to act so low-key!"
"Smart!" Osvaldo VII gently whispered his finger, then picked up a hot towel from the side and applied it to his face. Then he leaned his back back comfortably and lay on the edge of the pool. Then he said lazily: "My letter, my dear, just go with me after the morning court tomorrow. As for now, I have to take a shower!"
When Smith heard this, he quickly bowed and said respectfully, "Then I will take my leave first!" After saying that, Smith stopped dragging on it. After taking two steps back, he turned around directly, opened the bathroom door, and left quietly.
Not long after Smith left, the back door of the bathroom was pushed open with a creaking sound, and a beautiful young woman wearing only a piece of gauze walked in gently.
"My dear, are you here?" Osvaldo VII asked directly without taking off the towel on his face.
The beautiful young woman took off the gauze on her body, jumped into the pool naked, opened her arms and threw herself into Osvaldo VII's arms, and said in a slight voice: "Your Majesty, my brother is here to find you at this time. What's the matter with you?"
Osvaldo VII said: "Don't worry too much about men's affairs! You just need to know that I have promised your brother and will do my best to help him!"
The beautiful woman smiled sweetly and said, "If that's the case, let me serve Your Majesty well to repay His Majesty's kindness to my Smith family!"
"Of course! Do you think I will let you go, the little goblin?" As he said, Osvaldo VII threw away the towel on his face, then quickly turned over, pressing the beautiful woman under her body, and then... the whole room was full of spring!...
After leaving the palace, Smith, who had been planning along the way, quickly returned to his Grand Duke's Mansion. At this time, it was almost noon, and the Grand Duke's Mansion had already started preparing lunch. Liu Aiting and Liu Hongyu were also sitting in the dining room and chatting in a mess. Seeing Smith entering the dining room, Liu Hongyu hurriedly stood up, bowed to Smith Yingying, and called softly: "Uncle, Xiao Yu'er is polite here!"
"No need to be polite, no need to be polite, sit down and say." Smith enthusiastically helped Liu Hongyu up, and everyone sat in their own seats. Then Liu Aiting asked Smith: "Husband, have you made a clear plan for my Liu family for so long?"
Smith nodded and said, "It's almost done, but Xiao Yuer needs another run of legs..."
"Oh?" Liu Aiting was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "Why are you running?"
"Of course I'm going to ask the master to come out to help your Liu family take revenge!" Smith said naturally: "After all, this is the business of your Liu family. Only by the people of your Liu family can you show your sincerity! Do you think?"
Liu Aiting thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, "Okay, our Liu family is indecisive! Xiao Yu'er, you have rested for two days with your aunt for a good rest. When your physical strength has recovered, you will also prepare for you. You will set off to invite the master you uncle said!"
"Yes, everything is based on my aunt's instructions." Liu Hongyu responded obediently.
