Chapter 160 Po River Line of Defense
Both of these things had a significant impact on Venice. Gerras understood it deeply. Then he thought that the count could finally calm down, but unfortunately he was wrong. This was just the beginning.
Not long after, news of the medical competition came from Heidelberg. It is said that in this huge competition, Earl Eugen was also behind.
This incident had nothing to do with Mayor Gerras, but his son was a medical enthusiast. He was in his thirties, but he didn't work like a child. Instead, he was stuck in his room every day to study the ultimate secret of the human body - the art of immortality.
In fact, it is better to say that his son is doing divine skills than to say that he is doing medicine. In short, it is very mysterious.
Later, when he heard about the medical competition in Heidelberg, the boy didn't even say hello and packed his luggage and rushed to Heidelberg.
Gerras was both happy and angry. He was happy that his son finally came out of the room, and he was angry that he was still not doing his job and was puzzling to do something weird about medical skills.
Whenever he thinks of his son, Gerras always sighs heavily.
After finally dealing with his son's affairs, news about Eugen came again. This time, Eugen was even more shocked. Eugen took the initiative and cut off the head of another noble count.
This incident caused a huge shock to Gerras. It is not an exaggeration to describe this as a brave person who dared to kill an earl.
However, what is even more surprising is that after Eugen killed the Eugen, although the royal family ordered the escort of Eugen to meet Viana for trial, the attitude of handling the matter was very strange, as if they wanted to cover up Eugen.
This is even more surprising. Eugen's image is constantly changing in Gerras's mind, so that he eventually becomes like a demon with great power.
Even Gerras sighed like this: "Oh, if you want to restrain Eugen, the big devil, I'm afraid only God can do it."
Now, when he heard that the legendary Eugen actually came to the door, Gerras was uneasy and felt a little weak when he walked.
The waiter leading the way had no idea of the mayor's thoughts, so he soon led Gerras down the stairs and came to the hall.
At first glance, Gerras saw the young man standing quietly in the hall.
The golden curly hair was draped over her shoulders, and the expression on her face was very calm. She was not impatient because of waiting. Her clothes were a little scattered. It seemed that after a long journey, her eyebrows also looked tired.
But that's all. No matter how you look at it, you're just an ordinary big boy. His appearance in his early twenties really cannot make people connect him with the legendary demon.
The strong contrast between the scene in front of you and your imagination made Mayor Gerras fall into a strange mood.
Eugen also noticed the uncle who walked down the stairs. Mayor Gallas did not wear a wig during lunch break, so he accidentally exposed his bald head, which looked particularly bright under the sunlight at noon, like a shiny light bulb.
As he looked, Eugen couldn't help but get goose bumps on his body, because he found that the bald man looked at him, and seemed to have a bit of resentment?
"Damn!" Eugen cursed in his heart. He often saw such expressions in recent days, but they were seen by the two beauties, Margaret and Maria. Even if the beauty's expression was a bit resentful, it was very pleasing to the eye.
But if this expression is changed to a bald middle-aged uncle, it would be a bit scary.
But it was already here, and Eugen could not turn his head and leave no matter how much he said, so he had to bite the bullet and forcefully smiled, and greeted Gerras.
"Hello, hello, I guess you are the local mayor. I am Eugen from Leber City, and now serve as the commander of the disaster relief army." After thinking about it, Eugen decided to end the conversation as soon as possible, and then he told him all about his situation.
Mayor Gerras was stunned for a moment, as if he was a little surprised by Eugen's enthusiasm, but soon he reacted and responded habitually: "Yes, I am the local mayor Gerras. Hello Eugen. It is really great that you can serve as the commander of our disaster resistance army..."
Speaking of this, Mayor Gerras suddenly stopped, and then he looked at Eugen with confusion and asked in disbelief: "I'm sorry, Eugen, what did you just say? You said you are the commander of the disaster resistance army?!"
Eugen didn't say nonsense, and took out the letter the prince wrote to him from his arms and handed it to Mayor Gallas. At the same time, he said, "Yes, Mr. Mayor Gallas, this is a letter of appointment from the royal family. Now, I am the commander of the disaster resistance army."
Mayor Gerras was stunned. He knew that Eugen had been removed from his position as the commander of the disaster relief army because of the killing of the count. But now, without even a formal trial, Eugen has become the commander of the disaster relief army again?!
This is really incredible. The royal family is secretly covering up, and this is simply blatantly protecting Eugen, not taking the dead Earl Mead seriously at all.
No matter how shocked he was, Gerras did not show this. He pretended to check Eugen's appointment to calm down his mood. After a moment, he finally raised his head and said with a smile: "Oh, hello, Commander Eugen, then what are you doing to come to Venice?"
Gerras prayed in his heart, hoping that Eugen would just pass by here, take a break, or be short of money and want to borrow some money, then Gerras would give Eugen the funds in the municipal government without saying a word.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed. Eugen showed a kind expression on his face and said, "That's right, Mayor Gerras, I decided to treat Venice as the headquarters of the disaster relief army from now on, establish a defense line with this place as the center, establish a defense line along the Po River, and set it up as a disease zone south of the entire defense line."
Even though Mayor Gerras's cunning state was involuntarily showing a surprised expression at this moment. He looked at Eugen's face with no eyes and murmured: "God, Eugen, are you going to give up the whole of Italy?"
The Po River is the northernmost part of the Italian Peninsula and is at the junction of the peninsula and the mainland. It is precisely because of this that Mayor Gerras expressed such feelings.
