Mages Are Too OP

Seeing that the five military attachés and the new interim lord were about to clash, the three internal affairs officials stepped back calmly and hid aside to show their neutrality.

To put it bluntly, it is the grass on the wall.

The five military attachés, including Judson, slowly approached Roland.

Generally speaking, territorial officials would not dare to intimidate Shangguan like this casually.

But as soon as the eldest princess Stephanie was not in the territory all the year round, everything was handled by the eight of them. Over time, they secretly mastered most of the power and resources in the territory, and even secretly cut power. Now airborne a temporary lord, it is bound to divide their power, which makes them extremely uncomfortable.

Secondly, Roland is a man.

The eldest princess is beautiful and powerful. It is very likely that she will be the queen in the future. Her ex-husband has died again. Now she is single and is an excellent 'investment stock'. If they can get the moon first, they will not dare to say that they are the most powerful people in France in the future, but at least they can rank in the top ten.

Marrying the eldest princess, people, money and power are three wins.

And this young white-faced who ran out of nowhere, if he is the concubine of the eldest princess, Xinna, then the affairs of the territory will definitely be managed by him in the future, not to mention the power of money, and even the current status may not be preserved.

How can this be tolerated?

In fact, they laughed at first when the butler came to inform them that the temporary lord was coming.

how is this possible!

They managed the territory so well, and nothing went wrong. How could the eldest princess who didn't care about the troubles in the territory and was staring at the throne all of a sudden suddenly sent someone down.

But the butler looked serious.

So they came over to see who the hell was coming.

Then I saw a mage, a little white face.

In fact, saying that Roland is a little white-faced is just a slander in their hearts. The mage is equal to the noble. This is the consensus of the human world.

Even if this little white face does not have any identity, as long as he is a powerful mage, then he is a delicious honey custard. As long as he is a noble woman, he wants to try the taste.

That's why their reaction is so big.

When they heard Roland say that if he was disobedient, he would be fired, they even had the intention to kill.

This will directly cut off their money rights and kill them.

It's weird not to resist.

In fact, Roland didn't want to give him a horse as soon as he came, but the matter of Floating Void City was too important, and he didn't want it to leak out, so a Mortasos County that completely obeyed his orders was necessary.

If you insist, Delbon City is actually easier to control, after all, it is already Roland's territory.

But Delbon City has a big problem, that is, the country it belongs to is too small.

Hollevin is too small.

To build a floating city, in addition to requiring the builders to keep making magic stone bricks to pave the 'chassis', it also requires a lot of magic materials for the construction of many functional components.

This 'a lot' is not something a small country can provide at will.

Holevin is not too weak, and if you grit your teeth, you can indeed supply it, but from then on, it may be difficult for Holevin to have enough magic materials for magicians to use for decades.

Moreover, the clearance acquisition in a small country is too conspicuous, and it is easy to be found out.

In Frans, a country with a very large king and extremely rich materials, it is difficult for the entire Frans country to have obvious fluctuations in the market by purchasing a large amount of magic materials.

Conducive to hiding their true intentions, so that no one notices the anomaly.

This is one of the reasons why Roland wants to build a floating city in France.

Watching the five military attachés come around, Roland flicked his fingers, and fourteen huge blue mage hands suddenly appeared, blocking him.

Each palm, more than two meters long, was lined up together, almost completely blocking the neutral space in front of Roland.

These five military attachés are also knowledgeable. Except for the city guards, the other four are master-level warriors.

They can feel that it is difficult to break through the hands of these dozen mages.

Then their footsteps stopped, and everyone looked at Roland with limited eyes.

Roland also looked at them.

Then in a calm tone, he said with a smile, "Either do it or listen to me."

It's a statement with strong confidence.

Several military officers frowned. The warrior profession attaches great importance to the so-called 'mood'. They can also feel the momentum, like a big cat. Most of the time, they have a strong fighting instinct.

Whether the other party is afraid or not, they can feel it.

And now they can feel that Roland's momentum has been rising, and even a little bit about to move.

In fact, their intuition was quite correct.

Roland just wanted them to do it, so he would have an excuse to suppress them.

Of course, Roland didn't even think about killing people, he was just under house arrest to seize power.

However, the other five were not fools. After they sensed Roland's momentum and desire to attack, they were cowardly.

All five of them retreated to the chairs and sat, quite decisively, without a trace of sloppiness.

Roland was a little stunned at the time.

In fact, this is also due to his lack of 'experience'.

He spends most of his time researching magic, and the real 'battle' is relatively rare compared to other players.

The average level of professionals in France is much higher than that of Hollevin.

At the same time, the master-level warriors, most of the warriors in Holevin are only reckless, but in the country of Frans, the master-level warriors are almost all foxes, and only a few are reckless and will not live long.

Therefore, Roland used Holevin's combat experience to provoke the soldiers of the Frans Kingdom, and it was ineffective.

Instead, they backed off.

They shrank back one by one.

All right!

Roland knew that there seemed to be a small flaw in his plan, but this was not an irreversible mistake, at most it was more troublesome.

"Since you are willing to obey the order, then things will be easy." Roland clapped his hands: "Everything can be as usual."

All eight looked at Roland thoughtfully.

Looking at the sky, Roland said: "It's not too early, let's go back and continue first, we will spend a lot of time together in the future, just say hello now."

The eight people left slowly.

The door to the main hall was closed, and the light was much dimmed.

The housekeeper heaved a sigh of relief, he was really worried about a fight just now.

Roland waved his hand, scattered the hands of more than a dozen mages, and said, "Butler, you should know where the entrance to the basement of the castle is, take me to see it."

"Yes."

The butler bowed his head slightly and walked in front.

In fact, the entrance to the basement is not difficult to find, next to the stables at the rear of the castle.

There is a small military camp here, with a hundred elite veterans, who are the direct troops of the royal family to protect their own princes and princesses. Under normal circumstances, they only obey the orders of the protector, that is, Stephanie.

Of course... once the letter of appointment came out, they would naturally obey Roland's orders.

More than 100 soldiers in silver-white iron armor formed a circle outside the stables. Beside the stables, there was a small black entrance, and they had to bend over to enter.

The inside is very narrow, just a step above the ground to block the infiltration of rainwater.

Then there is a stone staircase going down.

The entrance to the basement is so obvious?

Roland looked at the housekeeper with strange eyes.

The housekeeper was mature and sophisticated, and immediately understood the meaning of Roland's eyes.

"This is the request of the eldest princess." The butler's expression was quite helpless: "She said that the castle itself is already a defensive measure. If there are really enemies and even the castle is broken, the basement is useless, but it is better to make it more obvious. It will be much easier to put something in later.”

The veterans surrounding the neighborhood all smiled.

For the eldest princess Stephanie, they all admire and respect her, and her nonsense idea is quite cute to them.

The eldest princess is very good, and she takes good care of them. They lead all the troops in the territory, with the most salaries, and the best equipment is provided to them first, and then the other troops.

Many people know how to be grateful.

So for Stephanie, they didn't have any malice, only gratitude, and only two thoughts in their hearts, protecting her and obeying all her orders.

Roland was able to hold the letter of appointment signed by the eldest princess herself, and pressed her handprint. They knew exactly what it meant.

The eldest princess truly trusts this man.

Then they should also trust this man.

Roland did not go into the basement, but looked at the group of soldiers surrounding him.

Then he looked at the housekeeper: "Is this what you called?"

The housekeeper nodded: "Let them meet with Your Excellency and get acquainted. In addition, Your Excellency has offended a few military attachés in the main hall before. Although they did not have a seizure on the spot, they may use some more disgraceful means after returning. So, Your Excellency, you need guards, and they are completely trustworthy and capable of protecting your safety."

As soon as the housekeeper's words fell, the group knelt down on one knee, and the middle-aged soldier in the lead said: "The order of the eldest princess is everything to us. You are the new lord she chose, then we This group of people is your shield, your spear, Your Excellency."

Roland's eyes swept across the group of people.

All are LV10 and above, and three are even LV13.

An elite small army of one hundred master warriors.

Put them in a small country like Holevin, and they can directly break through the royal city of the small country without any effort.

In other words, in fact, these people are Stephanie's real "secret chess".

Those strange people in the royal city are not dark chess at all.

Although they knelt down to themselves, they were loyal to Stephanie, not themselves.

But it was enough, Roland didn't need them to be loyal to himself.

As long as they can listen to themselves.

"Get up." Roland said with a smile.

The group of people stood up at the same time, and their movements were quite neat.

Roland thought for a while, and said, "Housekeeper, I have to trouble you to run again. This time you invite the tax officer over, don't disturb the other officials. Then invite the owners of several big chambers of commerce in the city over."

The housekeeper nodded: "No trouble, share the worries of the master, this is what our servants should do."

After the housekeeper left, Roland looked at the middle-aged soldier who had just spoken: "Except for you, how many other troops are there in Wangcheng?"

"About 3,300." The middle-aged soldier thought for a while and replied, "But 2,000 of them are militiamen, and they don't have much combat power."

"I want to take care of these 3,300 people. Do you think you are competent?"

The middle-aged soldier's eyes widened.
