Yago Doug muttered, pointing to the absinthe tea in front of him: "Please, Your Majesty the Duke."
Du Wei smiled.
From the title of Mr. Chairman, Du Wei could tell that the other party was deeply resentful of him. He actually deliberately used the title "Mr. Duke", obviously because he was unwilling to admit his identity as a magician.
"But I think... the magic union should serve magicians and be committed to promoting magic civilization." Du Wei said lightly: "Tradition needs to be respected, but being blindly conservative is not a good idea."
Yago Doug raised his eyebrows: "Oh, is your lord the Duke here to debate with me today?"
After hearing Mr. Chairman's questioning, Du Wei immediately regained his smile: "No, of course not. I came here today to make a... um, deal with Mr. Chairman and the Magic Union under your wise leadership."
"trade?"
Du Wei's smile is undoubtedly very endearing, but Yago Doug will not be fooled by this endearing smile. He knows very well that he is facing a cunning little fox.
"Mr. Chairman, a great man once said: There are no eternal friends, no eternal enemies...only eternal interests!" Du Wei prolonged his tone and said slowly: "And now, I feel that our
Transactions can be based on a common interest."
…
…………
An hour later, Chairman Yago Doug had a gentle smile on his face. At this time, he no longer had a gloomy expression, but looked like a kind and kind elder. He even hugged Du Wei gently.
, even though his robe was very clean, the smell of wormwood still made Du Wei frown a little.
Our Lord Duke carefully concealed this point.
"I think we have reached an agreement, right." Du Wei winked and smiled.
"Of course, my child." Yago Doug calmly changed his name to Du Wei again: "Your Excellency Master Du Wei. Deal!"
The finals of the World's Best Martial Arts Tournament are scheduled for the last day of February.
However, the game that should have been the focus of public opinion has been overshadowed by another major event in the past few days!
Reliable news came from the palace. The current emperor of the Roland Empire, His Majesty Emperor Augustine VI, has a noble body and is seriously ill. Moreover, I am afraid... I am afraid that he will not be able to survive this time!
The old emperor was about to die, so all the Roland people who knew the news put aside the matter of the game for the time being. Instead, they focused all their attention on the succession to the throne.
Of course, no one is worried, because the regent has done quite well in the past few years. Except for last year's southern snowstorm, the previous pacification of the Northwest War, and the raging Warcraft incident, other areas of Roland Continent can be said to be...
The country is at peace and the people are at peace, and the empire is becoming stable. The regent has made remarkable achievements in the three years since he has been in power.
Everyone believed that he would become a wise and great emperor, and under his leadership, the empire would prosper in the next few decades.
At this time, no one will worry about the life or death of His Majesty Augustine VI. Anyway, most people don't have much favorable impressions of this militaristic old emperor. When this old man was in power, he raised taxes a lot in order to raise military expenses!
Most of what everyone is talking about focuses on how grand the succession ceremony of His Royal Highness Prince Chen will be, whether he will look charming when wearing the crown... and so on.
This is a peaceful era, where people live peacefully and the country is stable. The leaders are wise...what else is there to worry about?
It can be said that the regent is very popular among the people of the empire. Most people support the young regent in all his decisions.
For example... the regent issued an order. In order to show the royal family's support for the Knights Association, and to revitalize the spirit of chivalry in the mainland and promote the martial arts of the empire, the royal family decided that after the knights association's competition, in the square in front of the imperial palace,
A grand ceremony will be held, and the Prince Regent and Prince Charles will attend in person, and will personally award "Knight Badges" to the fifty winners of the conference!
At the same time, the seal of the leader of the "Knights of the Sword of Roland" will be personally sent to the champion of the conference.
And, on that day, people were allowed to go to the square in front of the palace to watch the ceremony! At the same time, it was announced that all the wealthy nobles and officials from various ministries in the imperial capital would come to the scene to magnify the Knights Association!
Even the Magic Union has released news. In order to show the Magic Union's respect for the Knights Association (after all, nominally, they are still the two major guild organizations in the mainland), the Chairman of the Magic Union, Mr. Yago Doug, will also lead
The mages from the Magic Guild came to the scene to watch the ceremony, and at the same time, the fifty winners who were selected into the Knights of the Sword of Roland were given a magic-blessed weapon to each of them!!
This news is really surprising.
Because although the relationship between the Magic Guild and the Knights Association cannot be said to be rigid, at least they have always maintained a degree of isolation. At this time, the chairman of the Magic Guild personally came to visit, which really gave the Knights Association a lot of face!
And... by then, the legendary "Spear of Longinus" will also appear at the scene. All the people who come to watch the ceremony in the Palace Square will have the opportunity to see the legendary "Holy Spear" with their own eyes.
"!
The exciting news one after another made everyone full of expectations for the huge ceremony in the future... It must be said that although the emperor Augustine VI was a fatuous old man, he had only been in power for several decades during his reign.
In recent years, his tendency to rejoice in great achievements seemed to have infected his people.
On the one hand, people lashed out at the old emperor for constantly raising taxes, launching wars in Southeast Asia, launching various huge projects, and squandering national power. But on the other hand, people seemed to have gradually become accustomed to and even criticized various actions.
All the grand and grand ceremonies and excitement are endlessly enjoyable!
For example, the grand triumphal ceremony of the Nanyang Expedition Fleet. Although everyone knows that the so-called expedition has become a joke. But this does not stop people from being enthusiastic about the grand triumphal ceremony... After all, most people like to be lively.
human nature.
Who doesn’t like to see a grand triumphal ceremony? Who doesn’t like to see the grand and solemn honor guard of the royal family? Who doesn’t like to see the lively fireworks all over the sky?
In comparison, the final itself seemed increasingly inconspicuous.
Originally, although the beautiful warrior still had some gimmicks, the other contestant in the finals, Kakarot, really lacked box office appeal... Unless it was the gamblers who had made heavy bets. Otherwise, who cares about Kaka
Which country on the mainland did Lot come from?
For most people, they would rather see the showdown between the beautiful warrior and the Tulip Duke. It's a pity. It would be great if the Tulip Duke could reach the finals.
Another guess is, when will Duke Tulip marry the beautiful warrior home?
The last day of February.
On this day, many people in the imperial capital got up very early, and then made full preparations. They rushed to the big square in front of the palace. People who were full of expectations for today's great excitement, everyone hoped to get there early
If you go over there, you can get a better position closer to the front.
The Public Security Bureau of the Imperial Capital has already dispatched 5,000 soldiers early, treating today's ceremony as a major task. Although most of the officers and soldiers have complained about the non-stop busyness in recent times. It can even be said that the Public Security Bureau of the Imperial Capital may have
He is the only one in the imperial department who dislikes Duke Tulip!
Isn't that right! Originally, everyone was very leisurely, working and patrolling step by step.
But as soon as Duke Tulip returned to the imperial capital, a lot of things happened. That damn martial arts tournament had caused everyone in the police station, from officials to soldiers, to not have a day off for more than two months!
Today... is no exception.
On the streets leading to the Palace Square, a large number of soldiers from the Public Security Bureau have been patrolling along the roads since dawn. Although the commander of the Public Security Bureau was very troubled by such a grand ceremony, the regent suppressed the order.
He also had to bid farewell to the warm bed and personally led more than two thousand elite soldiers to the square in front of the palace early in the morning.
In the morning, all the streets leading to the Palace Square in the imperial capital were crowded with crowds. Even though the soldiers from the security station were sweating profusely from exhaustion and tried their best to form a human wall to control the flow of people, the soldiers resorted to crazy tactics.
The officer stood on a high platform, shouting loudly with a loudspeaker rolled up to drive the crowd away, at the risk of being trampled to death by the crowd.
Everything seems so busy.
The square in front of the Imperial City was already crowded with people. The large square, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people, was almost packed.
Everything is just like a summer festival, not even more lively than a summer festival!
Under the Imperial City, a huge arena has been erected, which will be the scene of today's final showdown. Under the walls of the Imperial City, a row of stands belonging to the nobles has been erected.
Our Knight Delon is a little dissatisfied with this arrangement. After all, if the game is not held in the Knights Association, he will lose a lot of box office revenue.
However, Delong is quite satisfied. At least, today he is qualified to stand side by side on the tower of the palace with Prince Charlie and Mr. Yago Doug, the chairman of the Magic Guild! This is a noble honor.
Oh, at the square scene that morning, the regent of the empire did not appear in the stands of the imperial city as promised.
Our regent has spared the masses.
However, news immediately spread at the scene. It was said that in the palace, the old emperor's condition suddenly turned serious. As the son of a man, the regent could only choose to stay in the palace to accompany his father, and here, he could only let
His son, Prince Charles, attended as a representative.
When the honor guard blew the horn, the loud and neat horn immediately made the crowd as dark as ants boil.
The sound of the horn aroused people's excitement, and countless people cheered in response to the horn. People threw their hats into the sky and watched ribbons flying up and down the ring.
And all over the imperial city, the Imperial Guards, who were fully armed and put on the brightest armor, also became a beautiful scenery!
Obviously, Du Wei has many gimmicks and ideas for holding such large-scale events because of his previous life experiences.
Between the imperial city tower and the ring below, a long passage with a width of two meters was built with wooden frames. When the time came, among the ceremonial calls, His Excellency Delong, the president of the Continental Knights Association, stepped on the red
Wearing carpets and ribbons, he strode from the imperial city, through the wooden passage, and directly onto the ring.
Then, with the help of the loudspeaker magic array arranged around him, the president of the Knights Association loudly announced that in order to determine the winner of the competition, the finals had officially begun!
Then, Kakarot and Elu appeared on the stage at the same time, which also triggered cheers from the crowd. Of course, these cheers were mostly for Elu!
But there are also regrets...
Because when people saw that Elu was still wearing a mask, everyone sighed in unison... Tens of thousands of people sighed together, and the scene was even a bit spectacular!
There was news before that this mysterious beautiful warrior might take off her mask in the finals. However, there is also news that she will not take off her mask unless she wins the championship.
Although everyone had seen the beautiful face of this beautiful warrior during the Tulip Duke's exciting kiss in the semi-finals, it was only a glimpse after all, and it was too short.
