Reckless Through The New World
Chapter 312: Fame is like dung with me
The clear stream rolled down from the fortress on the top of the mountain and flowed all the way along the mountain, but before reaching the foot of the mountain, it was frozen due to the severe cold weather and turned into transparent ice.
Below it, layers of ice cubes overlapped, like ice armor with fish scale patterns on the mountain.
This armor may not be very hard, but it is extremely smooth. Even beasts who are good at climbing can only sigh and sigh, wandering at the foot of the mountain for food, and it is difficult to climb the mountain.
Marquis Henry, the commander-in-chief of the Thracian Army, looked coldly at the distant peaks that were shining like gems in the sun, with disdain in his eyes.
"Those merchants in the south can only play this kind of trick." He said to his son, "It's New Year's, and the snow and ice will melt in less than two months. What tricks are you playing!"
"It's just that this war will be delayed for another two months." His son Jakar sighed, "It will cost a lot of military expenses!"
"How can a war cost nothing?" Hyde Henry said nonchalantly. "As long as this war is won, the entire South will be completely open to us. This group of merchants has been in business for hundreds of years, like a big fat pig. It's very good! Just scratch it twice, and the military spending will come back."
"If you search too hard, I'm afraid it will be unfavorable to rule..."
"Rule or something, that's something that His Majesty has to consider." Marquis Henry smiled, "Remember, we are only nobles, not kings. It's not something we should consider, there's no need to consider it."
He paused and said meaningfully: "If you think about it too much, Your Majesty will be unhappy."
"...Your method really works!" Through projection magic, looking at the Thracian army who had completely retreated to the camp and had no intention of attacking the mountain, Duke Norma showed a happy smile and greeted Semiramis. Said, "As expected, you are a big star who can build the world's No. 1 song and dance troupe from scratch! Your wisdom is even more amazing than your beauty!"
Semiramis smiled reservedly and said, "There are many people in this world who are full of fantastic ideas, but very few people can turn those fantastic ideas into reality. The praise of His Excellency the Duke really makes me a little ashamed, who can only come up with ideas."
Duke Norma laughed and said, "Although the method of freezing the peaks can only be delayed for no more than two months, under the current circumstances, it is already very valuable to be able to delay for two months! Sammy! Madam Ramis, your credit is appreciated by the entire Commonwealth, and if you wish, I would like to represent the Commonwealth and grant you the title of Viscount and the fief."
Semiramis smiled slightly and shook his head gently: "My ideal is to let people all over the world come to listen to me sing. If I have a knighthood, it will be inconvenient for me to sing on stage. As for the fief... the song and dance troupe has already been run. I spent too much energy, I'm afraid I don't have enough energy to manage the fief."
She understood what she meant, Duke Norma was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help being a little surprised.
It was the first time in all these years that he had met someone who was not interested in titles and fiefs.
Originally, he used the title and fief to seduce him, because he wanted to bring this wise and skilled woman under his command and become one of his staff. If there was a chance, it would be better to get a bed. But he didn't expect Semiramis to be unmoved at all. As a result, his original plan was completely lost, and it was impossible to implement it from the first step.
Duke Norma was not a resourceful person, and his plan was stuck, which immediately made his thinking stuck. Seeing his eyes twinkling, Semiramis was obviously thinking about something, smiled secretly, and left.
After she was far away, Duke Norma hurriedly called his staff to discuss the matter.
"It's the first time I've seen someone who is not interested in titles and fiefs." A young and energetic aide said, "But... there must be something in life, something you want, sir, you can prescribe the right medicine, It’s nothing more than a question of how fast the drug works.”
Duke Norma nodded, and he also understood that Semiramis' ideal was nothing more than to promote her song and dance troupe.
At this moment, an elderly staff member said worriedly: "Actually... I remember someone who is not interested in titles and fiefs."
"Who?" asked the Duke curiously.
The aide sighed and said, "Barbarossa, the man who dyed his beard and hair red with blood."
Everyone's complexion suddenly changed, more than one person's face turned pale, and some people's legs even trembled.
Duke Norma's face was also ugly. After a long time, he said in a low voice, "It's impossible that everyone who doesn't care about titles and fiefs is a pirate king."
The old staff nodded: "You are right, there is only one Pirate King."
But both the Duke and his staff had lost interest in talking about how to conquer Semiramis, and turned to other topics.
The name Barbarossa, in the Molai Commercial Federation, is enough to stop children from crying at night. He was a small businessman who inherited a clipper from his father and did some smuggling between Trella and Morai. Later, because he knew something he shouldn't know, he was slandered as a pirate, and almost died because of it. Just as he was about to be hanged, a group of pirates attacked the execution ground—they came to rescue a pirate leader who was being executed at the same time as him.
Barbarossa was saved because of this, and he simply became a pirate. In the following ten years, his strength continued to grow, and the number of looted ships also continued to increase, gradually becoming famous.
His most famous deed is that whenever someone dares to resist, he will kill someone who does not resist. When the killing is over, he will spit the blood of the slain on his own head and face, and put the blood on his face. Got **** myself.
Because his beard and hair are all red, gradually there is a legend of "staining red beard and hair with human blood". Later, once, he provoked the Republic of Brunei in the East and West, and was hunted down by the famous "Earth Ranger". This legendary powerhouse chased and killed him for three years, making him embarrassed, but he was not killed because of it. Instead, he grew rapidly in battles again and again, and finally broke through the limit and became a member of the legendary powerhouse. And repelled the Land Ranger.
Although on land, he is not a particularly powerful figure in the legendary realm, but on the ocean, he is one of the most well-deserved strongest people in the entire human world!
Because of personal hatred, he especially "took care" of the Molai Commercial Federation. After stepping into the legendary level, he even gathered a large number of pirates to form a joint fleet and annihilated the Federation Navy. And since then, as long as the Federation sets up a navy, it will not take long for the warships to go out to sea, and they will be targeted by him, and then there will be nothing to do with the people and the ships.
After a series of big losses, the Federation was finally beaten by him, obediently paid the money to buy peace, and renamed the navy the "Business Clippers". In this way, it was almost humiliating. A decade-long struggle with Barbarossa.
The Federation was naturally disgraced because of this, but Barbarossa was so prestige that all pirates respected him as their leader, giving him the title of "Pirate King".
Not long ago, the Federation was attacked by the Thracian navy, and someone proposed to go to Barbarossa for help. The man was spit on his face. Although Duke Norma was not at the meeting at the time, his representative was also spit. one of the people.
Looking for help from Pirate King? People don't take advantage of the fire, thank God!
After the discussion, Duke Norma sat at the door drinking tea, but couldn't help but think of Semiramis and Barbarossa.
"If that pretty woman with pink hair could really be like Barbarossa..."
He muttered to himself, but didn't say what happened next.
