Chapter 441 (1/2)
Powerful people of this level like the Gunners were once its masters, and one can imagine the value of this armor.
Because of this armor, Merlin and Alice need to pay off tens of millions of gold coins, which is so expensive that it makes your scalp numb!
What is the concept of tens of millions of gold coins?The taxes of the British Empire for 20 years will be paid off!
For the empire, development will stop for a full 20 years, and the taxation of the people will increase, and there will definitely be complaints.
No wonder Elizabeth will show this shocked expression, it is difficult to accept Merlin Lion's suggestion, this is not a discussion, but a naked robbery!
”Not difficult? Are you kidding? How could I agree to such a harsh condition?”
”Oh?” Merlin turned his head and walked out the door, and said without nostalgia, ”Forget it, you should ask Gaoming, maybe someone else can help you resist the rebels~”
Elizabeth suddenly became nervous, her face pale, and her lips were pale as she bitten them.
Now Elizabeth clearly felt that Merlin was taking advantage of the fire, but she couldn't say anything.
Because apart from Merlin, Elizabeth was unable to think of anyone else who could handle the current bad situation.
Elizabeth gritted her teeth, raised her head and called Merlin who was about to leave.
”Your Excellency, please wait, I promise your terms!”
Merlin stopped, cocked the corners of her mouth, turned around with a smile with her hands spread out, ”That's right, I have the ability to deal with those rebels, and you only need to pay a small amount of money to stabilize your throne. This is fair. Deal~”
”Is it fair...” Elizabeth frowned, and to be honest, she didn't feel any fairness at all, she only felt the humiliation of being helpless and being slaughtered!
”It's simple, you can rest assured to sleep well. As for those rebels, they are all mobs, just leave it to me.” Merlin promised Elizabeth.
Elizabeth did not speak, but felt a pain. In order to hire Merlin, a foreign aid, she suffered a great loss!
Merlin suddenly remembered something, and turned around and asked, ”By the way, how did you see that I am the great Elgin swordsman?”
”My knight reported that Elgin's Great Swordsman is a pervert to me wearing stockings...” Elizabeth sighed and fell asleep, ”At that time, besides you, I couldn't think of anyone else who could do this kind of thing...”
”Uh...” Several black lines slipped on Merlin's forehead, thinking
Is it so boring!?
Why do you think it is me when you see the abnormality of wearing silk stockings!
the next day.
Temporary Palace Conference Hall.
Merlin promised Elizabeth to assist her against the rebels, so he rested here for a good night, but there were other things to be busy.
As a powerful reinforcement for this war, Merlin needs to meet with his own forces, the four thorn knights.
The reason is that for the time being, everyone is the same enemy and allies, so we can get to know each other and fend off the enemy together.
Although Merlin felt that it was enough to rely on himself, there was no need to mess up the pre-station meeting, but thinking that this was Elizabeth's site, he didn't say anything, just a little understanding of the rules.
At this time, the sun was breaking out of the horizon, but the weather did not look good.
The thick dark clouds were like a monster of sake, pressing over from the north, covering the now ruined imperial capital, with no light in sight.
Several key figures gathered in the conference hall, but the atmosphere was silent, giving people an inexplicable pressure.
The bright red carpet has just been cleaned, and the tables and chairs are polished brightly.
The vase was pressed on the carpet, and there were many tulips that were just picked in the morning. The air was filled with a faint fragrance.
Wearing a silver mask and wearing a black robe, Merlin sat on the throne of the main seat. It was difficult for people to see his full appearance in this dress.
Except for Elizabeth who knew Merlin's identity, the knight below couldn't see it at all.
Originally, the position that Merlin was sitting in belonged to Queen Elizabeth. It was a temporary throne and represented the peak of empire's power. No one dared to sit on it.
But Merlin didn't care, just sit wherever he feels comfortable, and didn't pay attention to class etiquette at all.
Because many things are now led by Merlin, you need to look at his face.
So Elizabeth didn't say anything, she didn't see it, but her face was a little ugly, she obviously didn't say anything, but she was dissatisfied in her heart.
Just like a trumpet bullied by wild monsters, suddenly a full-level big guy takes them to the dungeon. Even if the full-level big guy has a bad temper, you have to endure it. Who makes you thigh? Merlin swayed sitting on the throne The sitting posture is very casual, one foot is on the throne, and the sword in his hand is used as a walking stick.
He hasn't experienced the feeling of being condescending for a long time, and today he just recalled how arrogant he was in the Demon Race!
Merlin looked at the knight below, with a hint of joking expression on his face. He didn't expect to meet in this way.
Elizabeth stood beside Merlin with a little sense of restraint, her expression somewhat natural, as if she had been bullied and humiliated.
She is the queen of the empire!
Why does it look a bit like Merlin's maid now!?
