Alien Knights

Chapter 227: Rachel's plan

   "You don't look surprised."

  Rachel frowned and looked at Todd with his usual expression.

   The latter stared into the eyes of the former, with a rare tenderness on his face: "I haven't seen you for a long time, have you been busy with this matter recently?"

Rachel put away the map and nodded: "In order to learn about the "Tyrant", I found many friends in the past... Well, maybe they are not my friends. In short, we must find them as soon as possible. "Tyrant", the mutation speed of the successor will only get faster and faster..."

   "Why do you do this?"

  Rachel heard Todd’s question and lost consciousness for a moment: "What is and why?"

   Todd raised his sleeves again and looked at the terrible result of the mutation: "I can imagine how hard you have put in to obtain this information."

  Richel was silent.

"Actually, you still have many choices. I believe that only you and I know about King Muxi’s mutation. I have no heirs or legal heirs. If you can make good use of this opportunity, alien factions may be able to control the entire country. You will become the supreme queen..."

   "Shut up!" Rachel's face had unprecedented anger and sadness: "That's how you see me?!"

   Todd sat on the chair, looked at the furious woman, and said softly: "Different races are above all else..."

Hearing this, like Rachel who was struck by lightning, his face was pale and bloodless, kneeling on Todd's side, his hands firmly pressed against the mutant wound, and his voice trembled: "No...I can't do... …"

   Feeling the temperature from the palm of the other person’s skin along the skin, Todd stretched out his other hand, stroked the top of the woman’s head, and said with a smile, "Richier, thank you."

   "Your Majesty, if you wish, we will set off now, only a few fast horses are needed!"

   Todd whispered: "I need you to tell me honestly, go to the "Land of Shadows" and find the "Tyrant". What is the probability of success?"

Rachel raised his head: "I found a reliable guide who can take us into the "Land of Shadows". But the biggest problem is time. Theodore spent three years searching for the "Tyrant"... …"

   "What about me? How much time do I have?"

   "According to this rate of mutation, up to three months..."

Todd sighed and said to Rachel with a wry smile: "From here to the west, through the Moon Creek Plain, and then north through the Watch Fort, Falling Star Mountains, Cosor Canyon, Ploess Marsh, and then past the numerous barbarians. Kingdom, finally arrived at the destination. Even if we ride on the fastest horse, day and night, it will take more than a month, not to mention that we have to avoid the barbarians and the church's armies."

  Richel clung to Todd's arm tightly, and snarled in a suppressed mood: "So what?! So you plan to give up the hope of survival?!"

"The last period of time, I intend to use it to accomplish some more meaningful things." Todd looked up at the ceiling and exhaled a long sigh: "Do you remember? The land under our feet, in three years It used to be just a deserted beach. Many people have made unimaginable efforts to make this place look like it is now."

   Rachel, who had guessed Todd’s thoughts, choked in his words: "Why can't you be more selfish?!"

   Todd closed his eyes: "Because of reluctance, I can't be selfish."

Todd combed Rachel’s hair with his fingers: "I never thought that the kingdom is my property alone. After the inheritance mutation began, I strengthened this view. Therefore, in the last moments of precious life, To spend on the hopeless self-help or the future of the kingdom, I have already made the final choice in my heart."

  Rachel looked into Todd’s eyes, and the tears from the starting point were already gathered: "Whether the power is divided among the people or the official examination, is this the last "suicide note" you left to the Muxi Kingdom?"

   Todd smiled and nodded: "That's right."

  Rachel knelt on the king's lap, crying.

   Todd leaned against the back of the chair and muttered to himself: "Today is destined to be a special day. Two people who have never shed tears cry for the first time in front of me..."

  ——————————————

   Three days later, between the kings.

Todd picked up the newly produced test paper and looked at it carefully from start to finish: "I have to say that your efficiency is really high. In such a hasty time, you can find a team of papers and complete such excellent quality. Test paper."

   Terrence and Emerson looked at each other, and the former said: "Your Majesty, now that the test paper is completed, when will the examination of the "Principal Legal Counsel of the Kingdom" begin?"

   "Next Monday." Todd wrote his itinerary on the calendar: "By the way, as well as the people's livelihood, taxation, diplomacy, industry, and public security of the kingdom, we must also start preparing for the selection exam for officials."

   Emerson glanced at the king in surprise, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, is it too hasty?"

   "The kingdom already has sufficient reserves of talents, and coupled with the effective selection of examinations, it is not hasty to build a functional structure for the Western Kingdom."

   After hearing Todd's words, Terrence asked hesitantly: "Your Majesty, when will the selection of officials from these departments be completed?"

   "Within three months."

  As soon as these words came out, the two old people were shocked, and they objected in unison: "No!"

   Emerson preemptively said: "The chief consultant of the Kingdom Market has only arrived at his post for a few days, and it is still unclear whether the selected officials are qualified. At this time, large-scale examination and selection may bring endless troubles to the Kingdom."

   Terrence then added: "Yes, I agree! If in the end, it turns out that the path of the examination and selection of officials is not working, is it possible to dismiss all the admitted people?! That would be a big mess!"

   After arguing with the two old people for a long time, Todd did not persuade them in the end.

   Just when Todd was feeling down, the attendant sent a letter.

   Open it and see, the font is beautiful, and the signature is Rachel.

   There is only a brief paragraph in the letter.

  『Your Majesty, when you see this letter, please call my soul. 』

   Thinking of that day, after completing the "Soul Link" with Rachel, the other party left the room and has not appeared for a few days.

   Todd didn't know what Rachel wanted to do, but he entered the soul space and started calling the latter to enter.

   Soon, the figure of Rachel appeared in the research institute.

   She first looked at her hands and feet, and then said to herself: "It seems there is no problem."

   Todd is a little unclear.

  Rachel turned on the computer's switch and zoomed in on the screen of the map of the "Shadow Country" in his memory.

"If you want to enter the "Land of Shadows", going east and then north is indeed a difficult and dangerous journey." Rachel pointed to the red cross on the screen: "Not to mention the long journey, there may be Encountered the barbarians and the church."

   Todd knew she had something to say next, and chose to be silent.

  Rachel pointed his finger to the west of Twilight City: "But, I have thought of a new route these days."

   "A new route?"

  Rachel clearly spit out a word: "Dahai~lightnovelpub.net~ Todd was taken aback.

"From Muxicheng to the west, through the Riptide Strait, and then north through the sea of ​​mist, then east through the ice field, and finally south into the sea of ​​the "Shadow Kingdom"." Rachel's eyes were firm, Shen Said: "This route, if we own a clipper, we can reach the destination in just one month, and it can perfectly avoid enemy troops."

Todd looked at the route map on the screen and frowned: "Leave aside the dangers of the journey for the time being. What will happen to the Kingdom of Muxi during my absence? The kingdom’s political structure is still incomplete, and the king’s long-term absence It will bring chaos and disorder to the city that has been built so hard!"

  Rachel's face again appeared the "fox smile" that Todd hadn't seen for a long time: "Your Majesty, guess where I am now?"

Seeing the other party’s full face of doubt, Rachel revealed the answer: "Silver Ring City, I have been riding a horse these days. It turns out that no matter how far away you are, you can also summon the people you want and enter yours. "Heaven"."

   Todd widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "You mean..."

   "Yes, you can meet, talk, and make decisions with kingdom officials at any time during your journey. To put it simply, you can completely manage your kingdom remotely!"
