Superhero Academy System

Chapter 383: Kill with a knife

"grown ups!"

The guard's voice awakened Rocky, who was asleep in the compartment.

"whats the matter?"

"It's noon. Would you stop and take a break?"

Loki raised the curtain, and looking down, he could already see the faint outline of Emperor Capital.

"Hurry up and wait until you're in town."

"Yes, sir!"

Seeing the guards leading him away, Loki lowered the curtains and lost his thoughts.

When was the last time he came to the capital?

Careful calculation, it should be the year that Willa was born.

When Rocky was young, he studied at the Royal Academy of Magic of the Imperial City, and even got along with the current emperor for some time.

However, after graduating, Rocky immediately returned to Portia, inheriting the title of Lord, and since then, he has rarely set foot in the capital.

Want to come too.

Portia alone was overwhelmed by the heavy workload of his official duties, and Loki tried his best to cope with it, leaving no time to run around.

Moreover, after becoming Lord of Portia, he became a thorn in the eyes of countless people.

Although, because of the existence of Master Clive, no one will easily attack him.

But there is no shortage of self-righteous stupid people in this world. In fact, even if staying in Portia, Rocky has been assassinated several times.

Because of this, Vera has almost always stayed at the Alliance headquarters since birth.

On the one hand, she can better learn magic from the two masters of Clive and Rodney, on the other hand, why not protect him?

Even though Vera went to Calvoz City to help Lax to learn magic because of guilt, Cleopatra's protection never stopped. Clive not only sent a secret in the secret, but even took care of Master Benjamin himself. But these are not things that Vera can know.

Rocky can't be as free as his daughter, and although he has complained about it, what else can't be seen through to middle age?

He originally enjoyed the rights that ordinary people cannot imagine, and naturally paid a price for it.

Moreover, after staying in the Portia territory for a long time, Rocky was somewhat unaccustomed to the outside world.

If it weren't for the special circumstances, perhaps Loki would never step into the capital again and deal with the group of hypocritical guys again.

After calculating the itinerary, at the current speed, it is estimated that you can enter Emperor Capital for up to two hours.

Rocky frowned.

For him, the journey was a little too smooth.

Except that the heavy rain encountered midway delayed the journey for several days, he did not suffer any obstacles during the journey.

Not only did they not have early assassinations, but even when they passed through some aristocratic territories with bad relations, the other party did not have any trouble to let them pass smoothly.

For this reason, the preparations before the departure seemed a bit redundant.

Under normal circumstances, this should not be the case.

Although due to the deterioration of the war, the Marshal and the Emperor simultaneously warned the nobles who were devastated by Portia, but the greed of the nobles would obviously not be extinguished by this setback, otherwise Rocky would not risk extreme Big risk, go to the capital in person.

So the only possibility is that without his knowledge, the nobles of the Posian Territory have secretly planned a new conspiracy. They are very confident in the new plan, so they do not need to risk being blamed by the emperor and assassinated He is the lord.

Thinking of this, Rocky couldn't help worrying.

Not only worried about the current situation of Portia, but also the daughter who kept the territory.

"Hurry up!" Rocky raised the curtain again, urging: "People will go to the Imperial City quickly, inform our eyeliner, tonight, I will call them in person."

Although the emergency call may be some of the eyeliners buried by the Emperor West in the imperial capital, the anxiety in his heart still drives Loki to do so.

With the urging of the lord and the efforts of the guards, the original two-hour journey was shortened by half.

After entering the capital, Rocky covered his anxiety and suspicion.

No matter how worried he is, showing his anxiety to the enemy is undoubtedly a very dangerous thing.

Rocky understands this deeply, so he will never make this mistake.

After entering the imperial capital, the speed of the team obviously slowed down a lot.

Rocky first went to the Senate, no matter what he said, this time he returned to the capital under the name of declaring his job.

Immediately after, he thought that the royal family had expressed the desire to see his Majesty, which was also one of the main purposes of Rocky's visit.

Rocky was only the lord of the Portia territory. He could not enter the court at any time to meet the emperor like Clive, so after expressing his wishes, Rocky set out to return and wait for the call of His Majesty.

Of course, Rocky didn't choose to return to the post office the first time, but instead went to the military department in a big swing and planned to meet with Marshal Edmond.

Rocky didn't think about hiding his eyes and eyes, but a foreign lord, after entering the capital, gathered the eyes of not many people. In this case, Rocky was really unsure to get rid of everyone's eyes.

So instead of sneaking around, it's better to visit with a fairness.

Of course, in order to prevent trouble, Rocky also gave himself a very reasonable excuse to discuss the issue of ore supply with the military.

You know, the military department in the war period is like a beast that swallows gold. It always swayes gold coins and buys war supplies from all directions. As the main supplier of ore, Portia's leader contacts the military. It's logical.

After arriving at the military headquarters, Rocky waited in the parlour until more than an hour later, Edmond's figure slowly appeared.

It wasn't that Edmond deliberately aired Loki, it was Edmond now lacking skills.

Every day because of the war, Edmund spent a large part of his time. It was after the end of the battle that he learned that Rocky came.

"Thanks Marshal Ken for meeting me."

Rocky's words are not polite. You should know that in his current situation, Edmond and him are facing certain risks.

"I owe it to Master Clive." Edmond hesitated, and then asked, "Have you seen your Majesty before?"

"Goed to the palace, but didn't receive the will of Her Majesty." Rocky shook his head, looking a little worried.

"Don't be too nervous. Your Majesty is also worrying about the war this time. Maybe it is not intended to keep you waiting."

Maybe, is that possible?

Rocky keenly grasped the loophole in Edmund's words, and his heart became increasingly worried.

"Is it because of the ore?"

Edmund didn't answer, it was the default.

"I thought that when your ex-Her Majesty gave you the Portia Territory, you didn't realize that the mountains that stretched thousands of miles would contain such amazing wealth."

"But we have never withheld taxes from the capital and are loyal to the royal family."

"His Majesty has never doubted the loyalty of the Portia family, and this Marshal can guarantee it."

Edmund sighed. Seriously, as a soldier, he only wanted to charge on the battlefield. He was really tired of this intrigue.

"But no one would think that there are too many gold coins in his pocket, and His Majesty is no exception. The original reason for not having this idea was because ..."

"Is it because of Master Clive?"

Edmund nodded: "His Majesty weighed the pros and cons. He believed that the support of the master-level strong man far outweighed the benefits of the ore, so he could tolerate the wealth of the Thousand Miles Mountains by the Portia family, but now , Master Clive and Rodney are dead. "

"The two masters did not die, but were temporarily lost in the void."

"Maybe." Edmond didn't intend to argue about Rocky's insistence, but continued: "A few months ago, the ore production in the Portia Territory suddenly increased, and at the same time, the taxes paid by your territory also increased. Almost more than the sum of the taxes paid by the major families around you. It is reported that amazing reserves of mineral veins have been found in the territory of Portia. His Majesty did not say anything on the surface, but his mind must have raised a strange idea. "

Rocky heard a bitter smile.

He did everything possible to increase the production of ore in the territory, in order to fast the wealth of the dragon, to help the Portia territory through the current difficulties.

But what he didn't expect is that because of his indiscretion, he was instead used by a caring person to become a tool for provoking relations between the Portia territory and the royal family.

"This is a rumor. Portia Colle didn't find any new veins, but just adopted a more efficient production method." In order to prove that he was not lying, Rocky said everything about the assembly line, even Wang Jun. The role played in it was not concealed in the slightest.

"It sounds incredible."

"But Marshal believed it, didn't he?"

"It doesn't matter if the Marshal is not convinced. The important thing is whether Her Majesty will believe it." Edmund shook his head, meaning: "In fact, there are rumors about the new veins, Her Majesty may not believe it, but the territory of Portia It is an indisputable fact that the large-scale increase in the production of ore will cause doubts in His Majesty. "

"So, should I dedicate my new production method to Her Majesty?" Rocky quickly responded.

"According to your previous statement, the assembly line is not complicated. As long as the person who cares for you pays attention, you can quickly master it, so instead of keeping these things under the jealousy of your Majesty, why don't you give it up, at least, you can get His Majesty."

Rocky also knew that, even if ordered strictly, the secrets of the assembly line could not be kept for too long.

Before, he just thought that he could hide the moment for a moment, and the method was not promoted, so that Portia could gain more benefits.

We must know that once this method is made public, the empire's productivity will rise qualitatively, which will lead to a surge in raw materials on the market and the price will definitely fall sharply.

In fact, the price of ore in Portia's territory today has been reduced by 20% compared to the past.

Rocky is not a mother-in-law. After weighing the pros and cons, a decision was made immediately, but according to Edmund's suggestion, the details of the assembly line were sorted out and presented to the next time you meet your Majesty.

However, Rocky also understood that the emperor's supremacy and status were destined to cause him to be merciless.

Perhaps the emperor will remember his contribution to the empire, but as long as the wealth contained in the Portia territory does not disappear, the thorn in the emperor's heart will never disappear.

Even if the Portia family can escape this calamity, there is no guarantee that Her Majesty the Emperor will not repeat the same thing in the future.

Therefore, in the final analysis, a new strong man must emerge from the Portia family, so strong that the emperor cannot ignore it.

"At the beginning of the war, the empire was inseparable from the ore provided by the Portia family, and if the pipeline could really be as effective as you say, at least for ten years, the emperor would not act rashly. Graciously, in this decade, I will do my best to protect you before your Majesty. "

"That is to say, ten years later, must we show the power that His Majesty cannot ignore?"

"Or, in other words, actively surrendering the territory is also a good choice."

Rocky sniffed, and then smiled bitterly.

Why didn't he know it was a solution.

The Portia family and the royal family have no irresolvable grudges. The biggest contradiction is the territory.

If the owner of the Portia family can surrender the territory, it will not be possible for Her Majesty to kill it, or it may even give them preferential treatment because of the loyalty of the Portia family, or even change to a new territory.

But even if the territory is changed, what does it mean for the Portia family?

The wealth contained in the Qianli Mountains is the hope of the Portia family's resurgence. Once the territory is surrendered, it is equivalent to giving up hope.

Even if the emperor would give them preferential treatment in his lifetime, his Majesty died, what about the new emperor?

Therefore, once the territory is abandoned ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ the owner of Posia is destined to gradually decline.

"Even if it is declining, the family can always continue, and Vera's talent is amazing. As long as she can take that step, the Portia family has hope of resurgence."

Rocky shook his head, apparently he didn't want to go any further on this topic, and he had more important things to ask.

"You are right, the nobles did launch a new conspiracy against the Persian leader, and once this conspiracy is successful, it may spread to the entire Persian leader."

"what exactly is it?"

"Do you know the Scarlet Rose?"

"Of course, Master Clive and Rodney were exiled to the void because of their conspiracy."

"Although the organization has been destroyed, several important leaders have not been arrested. The most dangerous of them is their leader and the most mysterious number one."

"What does this have to do with Portia?"

"Of course there is, because you have retained the Superhero Academy, and you have restored Kylan, who can seal the void of the void, which belongs to the Superhero Academy."

"You mean, No. 1 might do something with Superhero Academy?"

"The nobles have quietly released the news about Kieran, and maybe No. 1 will act soon."
