Chapter 686 110

"Your Majesty, I think we can wait a little longer."

Seeing that the situation was not right, the king's brother "Prince Dolanter" immediately leaned close to the king's ear.

"It is true that the three suzerains violated the rules, but I am sure that Loki will open the portal at the same time to summon reinforcements. We are still some distance away from the outside.

At this time, there are a group of ignorant lowly people sitting in the ruins. Let's delay a little. No one knows who will be the first to summon reinforcements."

Prince Dolanter is an external member of the Illuminati, which is an open secret in Constantinople. As an absolute confidant of Betugu, he knows that the three suzerains are determined to get Xuanyuan Sword.

If the king declares Loki the winner, even if they can get Xuanyuan Sword again through other means, it will definitely take a lot of trouble.

Before Mikhail III spoke, the president of the Chamber of Commerce "Maxima Crassus" who was sitting not far from him immediately snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate."

"It's very inappropriate!"

In the eyes of ordinary nobles, old Crassus has always lived a very low-key life. He always puts on a smiling face when meeting guests, and even if there are disputes in some business behaviors, he never yells at the other party.

This is the first time he has lost his temper in front of nobles in the past ten years.

And the target is the most honorable king in the city.

All the nobles on the roof of the church turned their eyes at the same time, but old Crassus obviously did not intend to give up.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten our experience of sailing together when we were young?"

"If you have forgotten, I haven't!"

"You were only 18 that year, not yet the crown prince, and not outstanding among the seven brothers. Seeing that there was no hope of ascending to the throne, you went to sea with me, hoping to learn a survival skill."

"As a result, we encountered a terrible storm at sea that year."

"Our fleet was blown away by the storm. After a terrible night, when we opened our eyes again, we drifted to an uninhabited desert island. All the drinking water and food were exhausted, and all the crew members were hungry."

"But in our cabin, there are a large number of cheeses and red wines that will be delivered to Duke Harkonnen!"

"The rule of my Byzantine merchants going to sea is that they would rather starve to death than embezzle the goods of merchants without authorization. After 12 days, a large number of crew members died on the beach, and even they were thinking about whether to take some goods to eat to save their lives."

"But you firmly disagreed!"

It was not until three days later that the search fleet appeared that we barely saved our lives.

Have you forgotten all this?

Our country is great because all the merchants who go out to sea with the double-headed eagle flag have iron discipline.

Romans can die, but Romans promise that the goods they trade will not be lost.

Our integrity is higher than our lives!

Your Majesty, do you think you can be successfully elected as our king because of the gold and silver provided by the Illuminati?

You are totally wrong!

You can become our king because every citizen in this city sees what you do!

Your fellow brothers live in spacious palaces every day and live a life of luxury. They drink, race horses, raise slaves, and play with women, but you are like the most ordinary Roman compatriots in all cities, carrying goods on your shoulders and driving the sailboat yourself.

All the citizens who go out to sea with you admire your character. Every time they return from the sea, they will praise the decisions you make and hope that this country can be governed by an upright and wise monarch like you.

Your Majesty

You did not rely on the support of the Illuminati to get to power. What you really rely on is the belief in maintaining commercial justice in your heart and the quality of being willing to break but not bend.

Don't forget that today is still your birthday.

A considerable number of noble merchants from various kingdoms are still stranded in the royal city. If we can't do it with a clear conscience, why will they still believe us in the future? !

Who will continue to spread the contract spirit of Roman merchants?

Duke Maxima is silent, but he will be amazing. All the nobles around nodded in agreement, only Prince Dolantel subconsciously clenched his fists.

Others don't know the tricks, but it doesn't mean he doesn't know.

He has been among merchants since he was a child, and he knows as much as he can about merchants.

Don't look at this guy boasting about a lot of truths with high spirits, the real reason is that the "Skylark Chamber of Commerce" controlled by Mohelanting is now Crassus's largest trading partner.

If Loki can win this century-long war, the biggest beneficiary in the city is this Duke "Maxima Crassus".

As long as there is a hope of helping Loki win, the old man will certainly try his best.

Prince Dolanter frowned and looked at Mikhail III.

According to Roman tradition, the final decision of the winner of a gladiatorial performance ultimately falls into the hands of the king.

**

Mikhail Ransev has been the king for more than 40 years.

After a long time, he is no longer the spearhead young man when he first ascended the throne. At his age, simply wanting to brainwash him with a few words of "passionate encouragement" or "heartwarming spurring" is like brainwashing him.

This is completely impossible.

During the time when Prince Darantel was chatting with Duke Maxima Crassus, his eyes were still looking at Gregory III.

The two seem to be close on the surface, but in fact they have been in a relationship of checks and balances for a long time.

The reason why Holy Bishop Pope Gregory III can still sit at the same table with him is 90% because he has a powerful force called the "Holy Holy Army" in his hands.

The Pope was quite eager to kill the leader of the Holy Crusaders. This was completely illogical.

Is it simply because the true identity of "Griffith Flame of the Sky" is the leader of the Lizardmen?

This may be a big problem for the pedantic people in the Eastern Land and the Tang Dynasty, but it is not a question in principle for the Holy Bishop Church.

(Perhaps he removed the commander-in-chief to monopolize military power?)

(This is also unreasonable, because Griffith has never acted beyond his authority during these long hundreds of years. He faithfully performed the papal mission, and the relationship between the two was as close as a father and son.)

(or)

The real battle can't begin until I announce the results?

The Byzantine king looked into the Pope's eyes and nodded secretly.

From the beginning, he had no illusions that these two groups of thugs could perform their duties like slaves and then leave peacefully.

They are definitely not here to perform.

The two groups had only one purpose in entering the city, and that was to kill each other using the most direct and cruel means.

Neither the Illuminati leader nor the "God-Killer" Loki had any respect for the king in their hearts. Mikhail III could even assert that the two parties had no intention of abiding by the agreement from the moment they entered the field.

Both parties are fully aware of this.

No matter what means are used, as long as the final result is to kill the opponent.

You can win this battle yourself.
