Chapter 231 The down-and-out Phoenix is ??not as good as the chicken princess
Ivan obviously doesn't understand the dilemma of his female teacher who has run away from his family.
At this moment, he was looking at a golden treasure box that suddenly appeared next to little Alvin, and he was a little distracted.
[Undead Racing Car (can be realized)]: A sturdy racing car equipped with a "beep" function and a 20mm machine gun. The strong undead aura on it makes it difficult for the living to control it.
——Legend has it that there is a mysterious track on the northern border, where people of all races often go to compete in racing skills. Now, this racing car that once belonged to a certain lich is yours! Get on the road, little baby.
!
"Hey guys, all the cars in the racing RPG map are out. Where can I assemble [Sheep Missile] and [Blizzard]?"
This thing is a reward that suddenly appeared in the system after the Scholomance Church completed the acquisition of Chenxi Newspaper Group and officially launched its publicity campaign today.
For Alvin, although this thing is rare, it can only be regarded as an unimportant little toy for the time being.
So he quickly used it to replace the position of [Medical Guard] in the storage box, and just suddenly returned to Hongyan City. At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa, holding freshly brewed black tea, and continued to stare at the uneasy face in front of him.
old housekeeper.
"My dear Butler Seba, are you surprised to see me? Also, you should have something to tell me, right?"
"I thought... that must be a very interesting story..."
Ivan's actions were obviously suspected of selling what he had learned, but this did not stop a former royal butler from kneeling directly in front of Ivan with a cold sweat on his face and weak legs.
"Sir, it was Princess Avril who took the initiative to contact me!"
While talking, the old housekeeper took out a letter from his arms and put it on the coffee table in a panic.
After hesitating, he reached out and pushed forward again.
And Aiwen could not deny this. After all, he had already known the contents from the shadow entrenched in the villa.
More than this letter, he wanted to hear the story told by the other person himself.
In this regard, the old housekeeper, faced with the warning of the contract, quickly accepted his fate after some ideological struggle and the interference of a mark deep in his soul.
Speaking of which, the origin of this incident is actually a bit far away, and we have to start from the time when the Kingdom of Stormwind was not destroyed.
As mentioned before, the Kingdom of Stormwind has always been a very backward island nation.
However, because it is isolated overseas and has little communication with the outside world, although it has no valuable minerals, no industry, no technology, but relying on rich fish resources, the kingdom is like many island countries with similar branches in the vast Echo Sea.
, under the rule of an ancient royal family whose age is too long to be traced, generations have lived a simple, quiet and happy life.
It’s nothing more than those who have no money eat fish and those who have money eat rice, absolute equality and harmony.
However, with the development of ship technology and information technology, this "Peach Blossom Spring version of happiness" was soon broken by outsiders.
Visitors from the neighboring continent brought the closed kingdom closer to the outside world, and also made some island residents unwilling to accept this boring comfort.
About thirty years ago, a sudden trend of studying abroad in major powerful countries broke out in the Kingdom of Stormwind.
In this regard, the king, who was relatively open-minded at the time, was encouraging and hoped that these people who went to study abroad would work hard to build the country after returning from their studies and help the kingdom get rid of the "backward" label as soon as possible. To this end, it followed the example of other countries and established aid programs.
Study Fund.
However, the subsequent development of the matter was completely out of the old king's expectation.
After batches of powerful children who had been influenced by the outside world returned to the kingdom, what they were most concerned about was not how to climb the technological tree, but how they looked down upon their hometown.
There are no high-rise buildings, no busy traffic, no excessive amounts of money...
Nothing!
Yes, there are only endless fresh sea fish, dried sea fish, pickled salted fish, and those idiot-like civilians.
The seeds of turmoil were quietly planted from this moment on.
As time went by, when this group of so-called overseas students who had "experienced the market" gradually took over from the older generation of the family and began to take power, the situation in the kingdom suddenly began to get out of control.
The calls for reform are getting louder and louder, and the undercurrent of attempts to overthrow the royal family is getting stronger and stronger, until it turns into an all-devouring torrent.
——The so-called new army proposed by the reformists betrayed their king and staged a coup!
In order to avoid the subsequent backlash from the public, these new generation of powerful people who considered themselves reformers went to great lengths to massacre the royal family with a thousand new troops they had carefully cultivated.
Then, holding the bloody heads of the new army and the king's family in their hands, they announced that they would refer to the Maple Leaf Country's political system and establish a new country with a presidential system, which is now the Free Storm Country.
As for the old housekeeper, he lost everything in this situation, and in desperation, he chose to sell himself to protect himself.
But...the story doesn't end here.
In fact, the royal bloodline was not completely extinct.
The king's youngest daughter, the second princess of the Storm Royal Family, was extremely lucky to escape because she was secretly studying abroad in the Maple Leaf Kingdom.
But the rebels didn't know this.
Because before committing suicide, the queen extremely ruthlessly killed the maid who had been pretending to be her daughter, and then pretended to be the princess and set herself on fire.
Although the method is a bit cruel, it can be considered a pity for the parents in the world.
But it is a pity that the Princess, who heard the bad news, did not want to hide her name and live quietly as her mother expected.
She... wants revenge!
But it is a pity that the so-called down-and-out phoenix is not as good as a chicken. The little princess has lost everything to rely on. At this time, it can be said that she has almost nothing, and even her living expenses have been spent.
If there is no further income, she will have to consider whether to drop out of school and work!
Faced with this desperate situation, Princess Avril, unwilling to sit still and wait for death, also tried many methods, but to no avail.
Finally, having no other choice, she tentatively sent an email written in the royal family's exclusive code to several secret mailboxes.
The owner of one of the mailboxes was Butler Seba, who was once a confidant of the king.
As a result, the poor master and servant were in contact three days ago, and even quickly changed the communication method from the Internet to the older, but less easy to trace, paper letters.
"Actually... I just want to give the money from selling myself to Princess Avril so that she can live a good life with the money."
"She has been innocent since she was a child, and she doesn't have the talent to reverse the current situation. Instead, she lost her life in vain and let down the queen's hard work..."
When the old housekeeper said this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. The gray hair and the deep grooves on his face seemed to be silently telling the fatigue and pain in the heart of this poor man whose family was ruined.
However, Alvin's focus was obviously not on whether the dishonest butler was suffering or not, but on whether he chuckled lightly.
"Interesting story... In that case, I have a suggestion."
Crossing his hands, he leaned slightly and stared at Butler Seba in front of him.
"How about I help you restore your country...?"
Hearing this, the old man raised his head suddenly and looked at Alvin seriously with his blue eyes. Then, he shook his head slightly.
"Sir, it's no need. I'm already your housekeeper. Giving the money to the princess can be regarded as repaying the favor of the royal family. Everything in the past has nothing to do with me."
"No, I think you misunderstood."
Alvin chuckled lightly.
"This is not a discussion, but an order from me, my steward! Please contact the poor princess. After all, her fate...should be decided by herself..."
Devil's smile!
The old man couldn't help but think of these five words in his mind.
But with the fleeting purple halo in his eyes, he hesitated, and finally leaned forward and said:
