Mystery: Shadow of Order

"Your Majesty, Archbishop Bernhard has arrived."

"Ask him to come here."

Rawls, who had just finished walking with his grandfather Orff, waved his hand at the royal butler. Watching the gray-haired royal butler turn and leave, he couldn't help feeling a little headache.

It wasn't that he had a headache about Archbishop Bernhard's visit, but that the Gonzalez family was too low-key in previous years. Except for some necessary activities every year, the rest of the time was in a state of near silence. As a result, the royal family does not even have an official spokesperson, and it is difficult to accurately convey his true thoughts only through the royal butler.

And Rawls had the idea of ​​adding a royal spokesperson to help him deal with the communication issues with cabinet members and members of the House of Commons who hold power, such as choosing an aristocrat who is close to him, but after careful consideration , found that now is not the time.

Although some "extraordinary" behaviors of the new king after he ascended the throne have attracted attention and discussion, they are only limited to the nobles and ordinary people in the House of Lords. For the members of the House of Commons and ministers who really hold great power, these are nothing , can not be counted as talk.

The Church of Knowledge has spoiled these people!

The more important reason is that Rawls found it difficult for him to influence them. In terms of professional field, he was no match for them anyway, and such things as laymen meddling with experts were rare in a country that pursued knowledge like Ma Xi. Most disgusting.

These people are not even willing to communicate with the new king alone, let alone communicate with the king's spokesman.

Therefore, Rawls can only wait for more suitable opportunities to appear in the future.

After a while, Archbishop Bernhard, wearing a bishop's hat, walked in, wearing a plain white robe with brass threads to outline the "eye of omniscience", constellation symbols, mathematical symbols, etc., and walked towards Rawls. nod.

Rawls stood up, greeted Archbishop Winston and asked him to sit down.

Bernhard looked about forty years old, with a medium build, a high nose bridge, and no beard. Because of the deep and large bags under his eyes, his eyes were relatively slender. Judging from several exchanges, he is not considered a priest of the traditional knowledge church, and he will not give people a sense of arrogance, but rather hearty and generous.

This may be due to his pastor background, or it may be related to the direction of his research. The archbishop is an expert in the ocean. Climate, biology, and resources are all within the scope of his research. Rawls doubts how many times the archbishop has seen the sea.

But for his visit, Rawls has long been prepared.

The two chatted for a few words before directly entering the topic.

"Your Majesty, have you been paying attention to agricultural issues recently?"

"Well, after all, Marsh's economy still relies heavily on agriculture." Rawls leaned back in his chair, "The archbishop is here to ask me about sending people to Renburg and Segal to buy wheat."

Two weeks ago, for the upcoming war, he asked the Tamara family to buy the wheat that was about to be harvested. The main target was actually Loen, but there was his special request there, so it was very secretive. But Lunburg and Segal are different. The two countries themselves are not very large, and agriculture is also the mainstay of the economy, which cannot be hidden from the eyes of the Church of Knowledge.

In fact, he didn't mean to lie, and even took the initiative to inform the Church of Knowledge about it.

"Your Majesty shouldn't be raising food for Loen, so what is the purpose of doing this?"

This matter cannot help but be ignored by the Church of Knowledge. Agriculture is the economic pillar of the three countries. If something goes wrong, the consequences will naturally be very serious.

"Of course not. If Loen needs more food, he doesn't need to go through me at all."

Rawls shook his head and changed the topic:

"I don't know what Archbishop Bernhard thinks of the current situation. I mean the whole world."

"The situation in the world?"

Bernhard scratched the bags under his eyes with his thumbs, which was a sign of his deep thinking.

As a scholar who studies the ocean, he has some understanding of the situation around the world. After all, under the premise that land wars do not break out, sea power has become a means for major powers to display their power.

Over the past year or so, whether it was the East Balam naval battle between Loen and Fusac, or the Rorsted naval battle between the Loen navy and the pirates, or even the violent sea edge naval battle between the pirates two weeks ago, all of them have been in Bain Ha within the scope of German attention.

He first thought that after Loen's defeat in East Balam, he should retaliate against Feysac, but Loen used this to start internal reforms, ironclad ships, government employee bills, but recently he has frequently been involved in various troublesome disputes, including But it is not limited to the right to succession to the throne, the competition between the two parties, and so on.

In his view, there might be a real outbreak only after Ruen completes the general election in July and August, which is also in line with the result of him using his own ability to observe changes in fate.

"The situation in Ruen is a bit complicated..."

Archbishop Bernhard is not good at politics, or to be precise, Marsh has no scholars who are good at it.

"No, although the situation in Loen is somewhat complicated, it is still positive overall, and the contradictions are gradually easing. The possibility of problems breaking out is not high. On the contrary, it is the Feysac Empire, which has even bigger problems."

Although the Feysac Empire is a powerful country in the Northern Continent, it is out of the mainstream in terms of politics, economy, and culture, and has never received much attention from people other than Feysac.

"You mean that the Feysac Empire will attack Loen because of its own problems?"

Although Bernhard was not good at political issues, he was also wise enough to know that it was not impossible. As for why Fusac didn't attack Intis, which was obviously weaker in national strength, it was a dispute between faith and interests.

The Three Kingdoms Killing formed by Fusac, Ruen, and Intis is the main theme of the Northern Continent War.

Although Rawls said so, if it wasn't for sure that Evernight Goddess had obtained the uniqueness of "Reaper", he couldn't confirm whether Feysac would start a war because of the outbreak of internal conflicts.

Although the Church of Knowledge has many "prophets", its attitude towards war is still very cautious, and it is impossible to truly predict whether war will break out, because there are too many factors involved. Even Bernadette, the "Master of Prophecy" who possesses the "Sage's Bronze", can only predict that there will be major events in Backlund, and thinks that the war will start on the side of Loen.

With this statement, Archbishop Bernhard also fell silent. As a small country, Ma Xi would not have the initiative to stand on their side once the war started.

"Does Your Majesty think this will sweep the entire Northern Continent?"

If there were only Fusac and Ruen, then Ma Xi might not be involved.

"Archbishop, you overestimate me." Rawls spread his hands, "My wife is Princess Loen, and the two countries have just married. I must take all factors into consideration. Even if what I said will not happen , next year we can also sell this part of the grain to Loen."

Bernhard nodded, this is indeed not a problem. What's more, the funds for Rawls' purchase of grain did not come from Ma Xi.

"My lord, in fact, we could have done more."

Rolstedt sent people to Lemburg and Segar to buy wheat, naturally not for that wheat, as Feneporte's is cheaper and has a larger yield. He wanted to use this to make the three countries of Lunburg, Masik, and Segal more closely linked and form a unified alliance.

Although the three kingdoms have the same origin and believe in the **** of knowledge and wisdom, they are three royal families and three countries after all. Once war breaks out, problems will arise.

The geographical location of the three countries is almost on the same line, and they are called the central and southern countries. Lemburg and Segal are adjacent to each other. Feneport has part of its territory extending into the west of Lemburg and the east of Segal, connecting the Kingdom of Masik with Lemburg. Separated from Segal, it is easy to fall into a situation of fighting each other and eventually dragging each other down.

When Rawls proposed this idea, Bernhard froze for a moment and asked with a frown:

"Your Majesty wants to be the leader of this alliance?"

He directly saw Rawls' intention. But he really couldn't imagine how Rawls would have such an idea. The alliance is naturally feasible, but it is impossible for Ma Xi to become the leader of this alliance in terms of geographical location or political significance. is most likely.

Although Pope Albert Mendoza supported Rawls, the headquarters of the Church of Knowledge was still in Azshara, the capital of Lemburg.

"I'm just proposing."

Rawls showed this intention on purpose, but he knew that the alliance could not be established before the war really broke out. But once the war started, he could use this to directly propose to form a wartime alliance and become the leader of this alliance, otherwise he would have no chance.

After the outbreak of the war between Feysac and Loen, Intis took a wait-and-see attitude, while Fenepot quickly joined the war, but the targets were Renburg, Maxi, and Segal.

Although Feneport is the weakest among the four countries in the Northern Continent, its comprehensive strength is still stronger than that of the central and southern countries such as Lunburg, especially in the north of the central and southern countries is Intis. Moreover, in order to prevent Adam from becoming a god, the Church of Storms is actually quite restrained in the war, and Ruen will not provide assistance.

This caused Lunburg, Ma Xi, and Segal to face Fenepot while guarding against Intis. In the case that military power is not dominant at all, the situation can be imagined.

However, this is beneficial to Rawls. His wife is the eldest princess of Loen, and Ma Xi is next to Loen. Even without the support of the Loen army, it is good to be supported by military supplies. More importantly, if Rawls becomes the leader of the alliance, it will be very helpful for him to ascend the throne of Loen.

He could even rely on this advantage to force Ruen's side.

But the conversation between Rawls and Bernhard ended here, because there was no value in continuing the discussion, and this conversation would be meaningful only after Rawls's "prophecy" was established. The Archbishop Winston has agreed to report the conversation to His Majesty Albert Mendoza.

At the same time, at No. 45 Garton Street in Backlund West, a guest stood at the door of Rawls Adrian's house. The hem of his white shirt was not tied up. He had black hair and green eyes. He had a handsome appearance. His hair was slightly long and looked disheveled, but he had a strange sense of beauty.

The Church of Evernight, Leonard Mitchell.

The butler August came out, welcomed him in with a smile, and arranged him in the living room of the conference.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Mitchell, I was busy with some things just now."

Rawls walked briskly, but he was still quite graceful, and he still looked ahead when going down the stairs, as if he was not at all worried that he would step on the ground and fall down the stairs.

"It's okay, I didn't wait too long." Leonard put down his teacup and stood up.

Rolls' eyes fell on the familiar iron box on the coffee table, he waved his hand, and let the valet and butler leave the living room.

"I almost forgot, there is another task entrusted to you." He walked towards the sofa as he spoke, and sat down leisurely. "It seems that the investigation failed?"

More than a month ago, because of the fight between Will Auceptin and Pallez Zoroaster, Rawls was involved, and he entrusted Leonard to investigate Sherlock Moriarty, and Borrowed "Soul Singer".

"Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't find any results." Even though the investigation revealed that Sherlock was Klein, Leonard couldn't tell Rawls.

"Is there no result of the investigation, or there is no investigation at all." Rawls held the teacup, the corner of his mouth curled up, "If my information is correct, you should not be in Backlund recently, and you only came back a week ago."

It was ten days ago... Leonard coughed lightly:

"Before I left, I tried various methods, and I continued to investigate after I came back, but I still didn't find out."

"Hey, I should have applied to His Excellency St. Anthony for a different person to investigate."

Rolls put down his teacup, picked up the iron box containing "Soul Singer", opened it, took a look, and nodded:

"Well, it looks pretty good, and finally there is a completed task."

In addition to investigating Sherlock Moriarty, he also asked Leonard to collect spirit bodies to feed the "Soul Singer", in order to reduce its side effects, and the value increased by at least a thousand pounds.

Rawls could faintly sense that the "Soul Singer" in his hand should be "parasitic". There is still a "Worm of Time" worth one or two thousand pounds. If it is made into a "Luck Stealer" charm, Doubling it again is fine.

Seeing Rawls's attitude change, Leonard heaved a sigh of relief, and said quickly:

"I don't know if I can make a presumptuous request~www.NovelMTL.com~ I know it's presumptuous, so do I still have to mention it?" Rawls almost choked Leonard to death, making him cough a few times, " I know what you're trying to do, but I don't think you can afford the price I'm asking for."

Feeling hopeful, Leonard's eyes lit up, and he said anxiously:

"How many pounds do you need?"

"Hahaha..." Rolls leaned on the sofa and shook his head again and again, "Why do you think I need money? Although I haven't become a big banker like Earl Hall, twenty or thirty thousand pounds is nothing to me. What."

Twenty or thirty thousand pounds?

Leonard's eyes widened. Although the price of Extraordinary items corresponding to "2" level sealed items can reach this level, they are basically extremely rare and powerful, at least like Klein's glove, or the tower. Luo will be like the "Laimano's Travel Notes" that Miss "Magician" introduced to him.

"Soul Singer" definitely can't reach this level!
