Chapter 158 The King's Insomnia
At noon the next day, the royal palace sentry in Wangcheng.

The messenger soldiers below circled back and forth, very anxious, but helpless.

"It's not right, why the pigeons haven't arrived yet, could it be that something happened to Glick and the others?"

The messenger touched his thick black beard and frowned deeply, realizing that something was wrong.

"My lord, the pigeon is here!" Fortunately, his subordinates yelled loudly, causing the boulder hanging in his heart to fall to the ground.

Looking up at the sky, there is a white dove in the bright blue sky.

It is small in size, but it flies extremely powerfully, and it only takes a few minutes to fly from a distance to the palace garden.

The pigeon flew over the garden, circled half a circle, and saw the rice in the messenger's hand, thumping and landing on his arm, pecking at the rice.

The bearded lion quickly checked the dove's wings, turned slightly to face the sun, and saw three feathers dyed golden yellow, which looked very sacred under the sunlight.

"That's right, it's the carrier pigeon of our temple."

The lion soldier nodded silently, temporarily forgetting about the pigeon's delay.

According to the original agreement, no matter what Glick saw, he would take the time to release the pigeon yesterday afternoon.

The homing pigeons took off in the afternoon, and after traveling all night, they were supposed to arrive in Wangcheng in the morning, but the pigeons did not appear until noon.

By the way, the pigeons selected by the temple are all good pigeons, they fly very fast, and they all have the ability to reach the next day or the same day.

The summoner didn't dare to read the paper, and rushed into the palace as soon as he got the letter, and delivered the letter to the king.

……

In the palace, the long hall is covered with white marble tiles, and a hazy silk curtain hangs around it, covering the sunlight.

In the depths of the main hall, King Lionheart is sitting on the throne, quietly processing documents from all over the world. There are many maids beside him, including cute cat girls and rabbit girls, mature fox girls, brutal wolf orcs, etc.

The messenger's message came to the door, entered by the Templars, passed to the maid, and from the maid to the king's hand.

The king had been waiting for a long time, discarding the lengthy documents in his hands and spreading out the crumpled yellow letter paper.

It records all of Glick's experiences in Tomorrow Town, as well as descriptions about muskets and cannons. They are all brief and not detailed enough, which shows that they were written in a hurry at that time.

In fact, this letter has already been read by Allen once, and King Lionheart is the second reader of this letter.

"Muskets and artillery, are they that strong?"

When the king saw these things, his first instinct was incredible, and then he was suspicious.

"Glick is too exaggerated, I have to wait for him to report in person." The king cursed secretly, never believing the exaggerated description on paper.

An arrow shot through a steel helmet 70 meters away, and the arrow shot his head, who would believe it?
Even if a group of Lion Clan Awakened people shoot long-range shots with hard bows, they dare not say 100% headshots.

There is also the most exaggerated description of the cannon, a cannon with a range of 500 meters, blasting through the city wall like paper.

The main entrance of the inner hall of the palace.

Another golden-bearded lion man in a floor-sweeping robe appeared at the door and walked slowly.

Seeing that the king's face was not good, he asked in a buzzing voice, "Your Majesty Ren, is the situation not very good?"

"High Priest, look for yourself, the cannon blasted through the city wall at a distance of 500 meters." Ren shook off the letter paper in his hand irritably.

The maid with cat ears immediately squatted down, picked up the letter, walked with her head down, and handed it to the old high priest of the temple.

The high priest wore a golden silk robe, and his luxurious and majestic temperament was not much worse than that of the king. At the same time, he was the nominal pope of the temple. It can be said that his power was almost equal to that of the king.

The priest, Bacon Scott, read the letter very slowly. He read it line by line, and made a questioning sound of "um" during the period. The ending sound was extremely long, which made the maids feel a little uneasy.

After 2 minutes, he also made a ridiculous voice: "Glick is simply fooling around. In order to let the entire army of the Temple attack, he did not hesitate to demonize the long-range weapons of Tomorrow Town."

It is clear that both men in power are proud and defiant.

"But Tomorrowtown is definitely an anti-lion faction."

"It's just how Tomorrow Town did it. That's an army of four thousand."

The king and the high priest sighed at the same time, and suddenly thought of something unreasonable.

With [-] troops and [-] Templars, even if ordinary lion soldiers were surrounded, the Templars would still have a way to break through, and it would be impossible for them to survive.

"There are a hundred of the Templars we sent, and all of them are veterans of the army. It is impossible for them not to hear anything." The high priest's face was tense, and his eyebrows and wrinkles were crowded together.

Wangcheng sent 300 Templar Knights, together with [-] Paladins from other nobles, a total of [-] people. Even if thousands of troops besieged, they still had a way to gather their hands, work together to break through a point, and send people out.

Besides, at that time when the boat went south, even if it was besieged, there must be a chance to release carrier pigeons on the boat.

Thinking of this, the two supreme powers fell silent.

The carrier pigeon's letter has been tampered with, and this must not be washed away.

Another point, are the weapons in Tomorrow Town really as terrifying as Glick said?
The two sat dully for a long time, waiting for Glick to send the second batch of carrier pigeons to send a message when he returned, but they didn't wait all night, so they had to go back to their room to sleep.

Four or five in the morning the next day.

Just as the sky was getting brighter, several pigeons descended from the sky, bringing new letters, which contained multiple information about Glick and other businessmen.

These carrier pigeons were late again, but fortunately, the delay was not too exaggerated. The messengers didn't think much about it. The message was important, so they threw down the rice and ran to the palace.

The letter this time is much more detailed than the last one, recording the large population needs, food needs, and mineral needs of Tomorrow Town.

The king suffered from insomnia last night and stayed up all night. When he closed his eyes and opened his eyes, it was full of words about 500 meters of cannon.

When the letter reached the guard at the entrance of the sleeping hall, he quickly crawled out of bed, browsed the contents of the letter with dark circles, and deduced that Tomorrow Town was in a critical period of development.

And those merchants who participated in the transaction provided a large amount of resources to make up for the resource gap of Tomorrow Town and promote the development of Tomorrow Town.

"Trash, these trash merchants."

Seeing the dozen or so merchants mentioned in those papers, the king rolled his throat and roared loudly.

The letter mentioned that those businessmen saw with their own eyes that Tomorrow Town was an anti-lion faction, and they also saw the horror of new weapons, and the subsequent transaction volume doubled again.

It can be seen that the big businessmen in the fringe areas don't even want to face, and they are determined to defect to tomorrow's town.

This also shows that after Tomorrow Town "shows its muscles", those businessmen believe that Tomorrow Town has the possibility of completely overthrowing the Lionheart Kingdom. This is what scares King Rennes the most.

"Impossible, the weapons in Tomorrow Town can't be that strong!"

The king's body trembled, and he suddenly remembered the hydraulic boring machine that he sent people to study recently.

"Come on, increase the budget for me and let them study new weapons!"

The roar of the old king sounded in the palace, hoarse and low.

　Thank you for your rewards, I will remember if I owe more, combined with the previous update period, I probably owe about a dozen more? (looks like it)
　　I'll make up for it when it's a holiday.
