ca-book Chapter 173
Chapter 173
I have to say that Vico guessed accurately, and Nereus really thought so.
When he walked into Atlana’s house arrest, Atlana probably guessed something.
“You made an agreement with Aum?”
Nereus was an unsmiling man, as if he had always been so cold and hard.
He did not deny Atlanta’s suspicions, but simply admitted it.
“That’s right, your son promised me that Atlantis would form an offensive and defensive alliance with Zebel.
Now he has lost on the surface battlefield, but the covenant between you and me cannot be invalidated. ”
In a monarchy, it was common to have a son of heaven and a courtier, but Nereus did not want to accept this unspoken rule.
This made Atlanta a little suspicious: “You recently… Is there a military operation ~? ”
This time Nereus did not answer her, but this made Atlana’s heart sink.
She warned: “Now the king of Atlantis is Arthur, and under his leadership, Atlantis will definitely not accompany you into the abyss of war again!” ”
Nereus just sneered and looked at her meaningfully: “Then let’s wait and see.” ”
Atlana felt a snort in her heart, bad, she was a hostage!
Nereus soon ordered his men to bring a letter to Arthur, and when the man had already set out, he remembered that he had to put his unconscious daughter under house arrest and save her bad deeds.
But when he went to look for someone, he found that Mae La was no longer in his room.
He reached out and grabbed a retinue: “Where did Mae La go?” ”
The man replied, “I don’t know, Princess Mae La often disappears and appears for no reason, and we can’t grasp her movements.” ”
Nereus put him back, he thought that Mae La and Atlana had an old relationship, and he already had some guesses in his heart.
“Mae La, I hope you don’t forget that you are a Zebel…”
Atlantis.
Arthur sat down in the throne chamber for the first time, because he had been told that an emissary from the kingdom of Zebel had come to see him.
The visitors wore chain mail in a retro style, which is the traditional style of Zebel.
“So, you’re the new king of Atlanta? That half-blood? ”
When all the soldiers present heard this, they were immediately excited.
“How dare you speak like this to the king!”
Two guards even tried to rush up and capture him to punish him for disrespect.
The messenger was a little surprised, no, he heard that the new king Arthur was not popular, so he used this arrogant attitude to try to suppress the other party from the momentum.
But how does the appearance of this group of soldiers protecting the lord in front of him not look like it?
He was a little stunned in his heart.
He didn’t know that because Arthur had punished the “King Shark” Nanawi earlier, his strength had been recognized by the Atlantan military at this time.
Even because he stopped the plot of Detachment X in time, he also gained the favor of the parliament.
On the people’s side, relying on the filter of dreams, his wind reviews are also quite good.
Although he no longer has 100% approval ratings as his popularity has decreased, the good feelings hidden in the hearts of the people are now the most solid cornerstone of his throne.
So this messenger from Zebel was completely misoriented.
But Arthur raised his hand to stop the guards, and he looked unfazed.
“Our Queen Atlanta visited your country some time ago, how is she now?”
The messenger was a little more restrained this time, but he came with a task, and he couldn’t help but have a headache when he thought of that mission.
Judging from the current situation, if he told the truth, he would be torn to pieces on the spot.
But he could only bite the bullet and say: “The queen of your country is now a guest in our country, and our king has said:
If the new king of Atlanta is willing to recognize the offensive and defensive alliance agreement signed by the former king with our country, then Queen Atalana will naturally return intact…”
This is a threat! Anyone who is not a fool present can hear it.
The anger in Arthur’s heart could no longer be contained, and he pinched the golden trident next to the throne with his right hand, manipulating the water flow to instantly catch the messenger in front of him.
The immense water pressure obscured the man’s face, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had been lifted into the air by Arthur.
Arthur looked at him with fierce eyes: “You want to know my answer?” ”
With that, he stabbed the trident into the messenger’s chest.
“That’s my answer!”
He carried the trident forward in one hand, pushing the messenger’s body back to where he had just stood.
“Throw that corpse to the remaining messengers and tell them that Atlan will take back our things in his own way!”
The guards listened with great emotion, and as simple soldiers, they ate this set very much.
To deal with all enemies who dare to offend, you have to respond to them with the fiercest counterattack!
“Pass the order down, let all the armies, reorganize the war!”
Arthur’s first order on the throne turned out to be a declaration of war on Zebel!
This is an outcome that no one expected.
There was a sudden quarrel in the noble council, who could have expected this, who could have expected it?
They had just changed their impression of Arthur, and this guy came out this one.
“Does he want to force all kingdoms to submit to Atlan by force? This is also too anxious! ”
They did not know the truth, thinking that Arthur chose to fight abroad in order to secure the throne.
This is also a trick often used by Western feudalism, and the previous king of Atlantis, Orm, also thought so, but he failed.
I originally thought that Orm was reckless enough, but I didn’t think that Arthur was more reckless.
Did he figure out how many divisions there were in Atlanta? Just issue such an order.
In Arthur’s room, Coe also goes crazy about Arthur. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
“Are you crazy? Why declare war? What is the difference between you like this and Aum? ”
Vico is mad, what aristocratic demeanor to hell with it!
Arthur was also angry and spewed at Vico: “That old thing dares to arrest my mother, then he deserves to die!” Where did I do it wrong? ”
“Even if that is the case, you should first seek a diplomatic settlement…”
“Settle a fart!” Arthur snorted disdainfully.
Vico was so angry that his brain was pounding, but he was not unable to understand Arthur’s mood, and he could only persuade him with good words.
“Arthur, Zebel and Atlan are friends for generations, and even if Nereus puts Atlana under house arrest, it will not hurt her because of it.
On the contrary, in order to ensure that he continues the agreement with the previous generation of kings, he will also try to protect her. ”
“But if you rashly declare war now, Atlana will be completely hostage, and it is difficult to ensure the safety of the hostages…”
“He dare!” Arthur roared.
Vico began to feel a headache again, whether he dared not be the point, could he be ah!
“If you’re worried about Atlanta, I can be your hostage.”
Just as they were about to continue arguing, Mae La suddenly came in through the door.
Vico opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Arthur flatly refused: “I will never trade innocent people!” ”
This made Mae La impress him, maybe Atlana was right, he did have some kingly air, but it was not enough.
A qualified king will not be angry, let alone start a war lightly.
At this time, Dane also suddenly appeared in the room.
He came and went without a trace, and the whole of Atlantis now had almost no defenses against him.
Vico frowned secretly, but he didn’t say anything.
What he didn’t know was that Dane had downloaded Cortana’s body to their central processing system in Atlanta.
Although that system is not binary, it is difficult for Cortana, who has been evolved and upgraded many times.
Now the entire Atlantan network is basically in Dane’s hands.
It’s hard to hide his every move here.
“Arthur, are you mobilizing troops?”
“That’s right!” Arthur then told Dane what had just happened.
He just nodded after listening: “In that case, then teach that King Nereus a lesson…”
Before he finished speaking, he felt someone squeeze his arm, and he turned his head to see Mae La pretend to be nothing.
So he changed his tone: “But there is no need to cause too many casualties, just a small punishment and a big admonition.” ”
Arthur’s smart little head suddenly came online, his eyes rolled and suddenly lit up.
“You mean… Dreamland? ”
Dane nodded, Dream Stone was very useful at such times.
It’s like creating a huge virtual reality world where people can feel alive, old, sick and dead, but once they wake up, everything can be reset.
Arthur couldn’t help but grin widely.
“In that case, then I’m not welcome!”
