Warhammer Throne

ps: Today's first update, I saw many people say that the last chapter was very watery, saying that I was perfunctory and coping. What I want to say is that yesterday I went back to my dorm to add a change, and I started writing the second change until 11 o’clock at night. Finally, the second change was finished, and I was about to write today’s first change. I was exhausted at that time. I can’t open my eyes, but in order to keep changing or delaying changes, I insisted on writing until 2:30 in the morning to finish writing today’s first update. Besides, I planned to write this kind of content a long time ago. For a long time, I read a lot of hookups and press releases, and also checked a lot of information. I didn’t understand. I said I’m a little watery. I think it’s because I also know that it’s more watery. But if I am really perfunctory or have a bad attitude Will you desperately write the second update yesterday?

In the future, there will be less thankless things. I am tired and uncomfortable sitting for a long time.

In any case, let's add another chapter today, the emperor apologizes here.

…………I am the dividing line that distinguishes the text and ps…………

A melancholy face, wearing a very luxurious elector’s gown, with a lot of gold and silver jewellery hanging on his head, wearing colorful hat feathers, about forty years old, standing in front of Ryan, his face It is all aloof and harsh. The silk coat is embroidered with golden sun and golden wool patterns. Obviously, this is the family coat of arms of the family of the Electors of Tuscany. There are two swords hanging from his waist, one long The sword is the holy sword of the Emperor of the Empire, and a short sword is a silver short sword enchanted with dwarven runes. He is very handsome, but his melancholy watch and stern poker face destroy his facial features.

"Let me introduce, this is the newly appointed Elector of Tuscany and Grand Duke of Ivy and Grand Count of Ivyheim, Marius-Letterdorf." The emperor smiled and patted Marius. Shoulder: "Last chosen emperor, Umberto Corleone finally decided to retire after serving as the emperor of Tuscany for two hundred years. Marius is his fifth grandson, a legendary pinnacle. The strong man in the family, when competing for the emperor's marquis position, defeated all the competitors with the double swords in his hand, and stood out. I think you will have a lot of exchanges. Marius is the most determined of our family. Political ally and military partner, the friendly relationship between Rickling and Ivyling can be traced back to the noble friendship between Charlemagne and Sigurd, the first elector of Tuscany, two thousand years ago."

"It's an honor to meet you, Lord Ryan Macado." Marius squeezed out a smile: "If I have a chance, I must ask you about swordsmanship."

"Welcome anytime." Ryan stretched out his hand and shook Marius, the Crown Prince of Brittany hesitated for a moment: "Crazy...Earl?"

"Hahaha~" The emperor couldn't help laughing when he heard the word crazy earl. Marius didn't respond, and he replied hardly: "They asked for this."

Of course Ryan knew about Marius, and he was certainly concerned about the change of the elector in the empire. After Marius-Letterdorf was selected as the first heir to the elector, the first thing he did was to announce that Mutter was not allowed Ivey led merchants to levy a high "calf tax."

What is the calf tax?

In the half-human homeland of Mute, in order to protect the interests of the half and prevent humans from occupying the half-man’s home too much, the half will levy a "calf tax" on the humans who enter the Mute, that is, humans who are more than 1.3 meters tall. If you want to enter a half-human town, you have to pay a huge tax. This tax was originally designed to protect the empire’s largest granary from Mute from being re-infiltrated and reclaimed by humans.

But as we all know, no matter how good the starting point is, a tax will eventually become a tool for the ruling class to accumulate money as long as there is no follow-up and supervision. As the half-person continues to raise the calf tax, Ivey leads this food-producing province and empire. One of the wealthiest provinces can’t stand it anymore. The first thing Marius was chosen as heir was to lead the Golden Fleece Knights, Black Bear Knights, and Ivey’s unique expedition army, heading towards Muth. The half-man declared war and asked the opponent to reduce the calf tax.

As a result, the half man did not know where he got a steam tank that was originally scrapped. They installed a trailer behind the steam tank and installed the famous half man cauldron behind the tank, relying on this steam tank, half man After a battle with Marius on the border, Emperor Karl-Franz came out to mediate, Ivy and Mutter signed an agreement, the half-man lowered the calf tax, and Marius withdrew his troops.

Relying on this unexpected and crazy screaming on the battlefield, personally charging performance, rough manners and bad sense of humor, Marius-Letterdorf received the nickname "Mad Earl".

By the way, Marius-Letterdorf’s brother is called Hans-Letterdorf, who is the head of the Paladins mentioned earlier and Alfred’s immediate superior.

As for how this scrapped steam tank came from... Ryan thought to himself that it must have nothing to do with Emilia.

No way, in the previous invasion of the Tamukhan, the army led by Ivey was busy guarding the Black Fire Pass and did not participate. The emperor also fought with the Chaos War Gang in the Brass Fortress in Hawke's collar. Noor was extremely dissatisfied with these two provinces. During this period of time, the two sides have had a lot of friction, hostility towards each other, and a decline in relations.

After introducing Marius, another very strong, bear-like middle-aged man stood in front of Ryan. He was wearing a bear skin and a lake-green cloak. After the cloak, a man with a sea boat and wind and waves printed on it also appeared. At the side of the emperor, his hair and beard were gray, and the corners of his eyes had a lot of wrinkles. He had a long goatee hanging down to his stomach. He was like a true northern warrior, stubborn, stubborn, warlike and fierce.

"This I think you may have met, Theodoric Gesser, the current Grand Duke of Nord, the owner of the elective power of the Nord Kingdom, the Grand Baron Sysenmund, the Fear of Norsca , You have all made great achievements in the process of fighting against Norsca's invasion, maybe you are also very topical." The emperor held up the wine glass.

"I met him." Theodoric Gesser's voice was thick, and he was not young anymore: "Ryan, at that time, was just a ranger and knight, wandering around Nord, looking for opportunities for promotion. "

"Is Your Majesty Harald's body okay?" Ryan held up the wine glass and clinked with Geisel. If His Majesty Harald is too, the empire will have one less sanctuary powerhouse.

"Great-grandfather is getting old, and he is already unable to handle internal affairs. He is almost 300 years old this year." Geyser said impatiently: "He is retired, and now it is our young people's turn."

Ryan thought you were over fifty this year, right? Is this still young?

However, the strong in this world do have to live longer, and whether it is the emperor of the empire or the Duke of Brittany, they will also pay more attention to strength when choosing their heirs. After all, heirs must live long enough to stabilize the territory.

By the way, Geysell’s daughter Anne Taelise is the wife of Elector Boris Toddbringer.

Like his great-grandfather Harald Frank, Geisel is a ruler who is very obsessed with the area of ​​the territory and especially likes to forge claims. After he took the choice of the emperor, he publicly declared that he had inherited Marienburg from his great-grandfather. The prince’s title, of course, immediately issued a statement by the Marienburg City Council, listing Geyser as an unwelcome object in Marienburg.

"It seems that you are very familiar with each other." The emperor was a little surprised, and he smiled heartily: "Is it a bit presumptuous?"

"No, it's an honor, Carl, you actually brought such a luxurious delegation this time." Ryan felt the cold wind blowing through his body at night, and his attitude was very friendly: "I thought you would come, but I didn't expect...you This is bringing half of the empire."

"No, it's an empire." Marius stretched out an index finger and pointed to the emperor: "He is the empire."

This untimely sneer made Ryan's mouth twitched, and the whole atmosphere instantly became awkward. Karl-Franz laughed twice. He really didn't know what to say. Geyser stretched out his nostril and snorted. Murmured "boring southerner" and walked away with the cup.

"..." The awkward atmosphere lasted for ten seconds. Karl-Franz and Ryan, look at me, and I look at you. They don't know how to answer this. Marius has a bit of humor about himself. I didn't notice it, and didn't intend to speak to resolve the embarrassment.

"Well, Ryan, I heard that you hired a team of Olengrad Sea Soul Guards from Kiesloff through the relationship with President Amancio of the Estalian Merchants League. Tell me, what are you How did you do it?" After thinking about it, the emperor decided to divert the subject, he shrugged, pretending to be relaxed: "Can you communicate?"

"Come with me, I'll show you something." Ryan motioned to the emperor to follow him, and Karl and Marius looked at each other and immediately followed.

The three people came to a small room inside the palace. Ryan carefully opened a large gold box with five white enamel outer layers and gold eggs made of gold: "Look, Carl."

"This is... the Fabry egg?!" Karl-Franz and Marius both grew their mouths in surprise: "This...isn't this...isn't Kislov's national treasure? God, Ryan, how do you make it? Arrived?!"

Ryan opened the first egg with a smile. Inside the egg was a small golden hen. Inside the golden hen's belly, there was a mini crown set with diamonds and a miniature egg made of rubies. The craftsmanship of forging made everyone amazed. Only Karl-Franz’s royal treasury contained the same colored eggs. It was a gift from the Kingdom of Kislov to the emperor. As a symbol of friendship, every Fabe egg was different. Moreover, a powerful protection magic is sealed inside, which can be charged and used repeatedly.

"How did you get it? Some people need money, some people need things, and some people have channels. That's how it got it." Ryan looked at the five Fabé eggs with satisfaction, and he smiled and said: "Amancio has a way, as long as there is With enough money, Kislov is now in urgent need of funds to pay pensions and rebuild the heavily-lost army. His Majesty Katalyn’s magic research also requires a lot of expenses. The kingdom cannot provide so many taxes, and the finances that cannot make ends meet need money to make up. This is how the Sea Soul Guardian came. There are some things that we can't do on the surface, but privately, the Tsars are willing to transfer their national treasures, as long as the price is right and there is nothing that cannot be sold. Amancio has a list in his hand. "

"Oh! Charlemagne is here, Helena will like this." Karl-Franz understood, and the emperor smiled happily: "Helena will like this. I want to tell Amancio and let him give it too. I'll make one."

"I want one too, no, two!" Marius' eyes lit up, and there were only these five easter eggs left in the eyes of the Mad Earl. Ryan thought that these are the ones I want to give to the lady and Sulia, and What's the matter with you, so Ryan immediately closed the treasure chest and the three people came out of the room. The emperor thought for a while and asked tentatively: "So, you are also expeditioning to Bafeng Mountain for the endless wealth in it?"

"The knights always need a reason for expedition." Ryan did not answer Karl Franz's question directly: "King Bellegar has a suitable reason, and it has helped us a lot."

"Black Heart Rip is the prince of the frontier you support?" Marius asked quite directly: "I heard his name more than once in Ivey. He seems to have a stable and sufficient source of troops, and he can still get a lot from Haimen Pass at any time. It’s impossible for the mercenary leader to do this without the support of people. He now owns three towns and a dozen villages, and more than 3,000 swords."

"Littlebird? Maybe, who knows?" Ryan said speciously, "He might also come this time as he is enthroned. You can ask him then?"

Having said that, the emperor and Marius knew it well. Karl-Franz thought for a while, and felt that the empire didn’t have the energy to manage the affairs of the border princes. He laughed a few times, and stopped a man wearing a fur coat with his head. The Midden leader wearing a felt hat said to Ryan: "By the way, Ryan, I almost forgot. I will introduce you to an empire hero this time, my right hand man."

"Marshal of the Imperial Hunter, Marcus Wolfhart!"

While there was a noisy state banquet and cocktail party in the palace of Curona, under the dark night sky, another group of visitors also approached the capital of the Knight Kingdom along the ancient road.

The Archduke Schultz of Marienburg led his bodyguards and the elite pioneer cavalry troops of Marienburg, the "Surrounders", along the road to Curona, and arrived at the outskirts of Curona.

More than ten years of time did not seem to have left any trace on Van der Guber-Schultz’s. He took a few very tall people on a small hill in the Kurona Wilderness, looking at the glory in the distance. As the city welcomes the arrival of the imperial emperor today, Kurona is brightly lit, like a beacon of civilization, illuminating the nearby dark plains.

"Your Majesty, your Excellencies, we are here."

"very good."
