Chapter 154 4. Open-minded
Newkel leaned back in the chair with a relaxed look, without the majesty of the past.
The two Druchi smokers were quietly savoring the harmful substances, and Darkos could even hear the howling wind outside the window.
"What happens after planting? What do you think?" After a while, Newkel gradually mastered the method, picked up the goblet and took a sip of the iron-flavored blood wine before asking.
"I want my good brother to promote it and promote it among the powerful people in Krakalond, but it seems that it is no longer needed now. Soldiers and civilians also have corresponding chewing tobacco, which is the kind of tobacco that can be chewed in the mouth. . The batch of tobacco seeds brought back will be trial grown first, so that tobacco can become the industry of the Hell Calamity Family facing the Drukhi society." Darkus organized his words and expressed his thoughts.
"Yes, absolutely yes!"
"In addition, a large amount of wine and grain, all kinds of wine, brandy, whiskey, rum, gin, Lustria tequila, and all kinds of food are provided to Drukhi society."
"Interesting! Let's talk about it."
"For example, we can promote fertility, distribute Sovereign according to quotas, and then return Sovereign through slaves, tobacco, wine, food and interesting handicrafts. Of course. , this is just an immature idea of mine." Darkus roughly dipped the index finger of his right hand into the blood wine and began to draw on the bronze plate, speaking as he drew.
"Can you get a lot of property in the Lustria continent?"
"Enough to buy all the properties in Naggaroth now!" Darkus fired directly. At this point, there is no need to hide. , he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to, so he simply gave Nukel some little Lustria shock.
"Did you bring back all the Druch who went out with you?" After Darkus finished speaking, Newkel suddenly leaned forward and leaned on the table, glaring at Darkus and asked seriously .
"At this moment, we are all in the Night Governor's Castle! There is no contact with the outside world. Of course they have sworn to me." "
Very good! I will let my mother take action herself!"
The subtext of this sentence is to follow Duck. When Uth went to the Lustria continent, Druchi had good things to eat, spiritually, but this was Druchi, and there was nothing Darkus could do.
"Don't rush things in Lustria. Leave them there first and no one can take them away, right? We have to do it step by step. The politics of Druchi society are very delicate. If we take a big step, we won't be able to take it away." It will bring no benefit to the Hell Catastrophe family, but it will bring disaster to the Hell Catastrophe family!" After finishing speaking, Newkel did not inhale the tobacco, but thought for a moment, and then said, "During this period, you Just don’t go out, you stay with me for half a year and serve as adjutant.”
Darkus knew that this was Newkel’s expression and approval, and he was also telling the members of the Hell Calamity family and Krakaronduru Strangely for a powerful man, he did not lose favor or power because of his father's death. On the contrary, there is a sense of indirectly acknowledging the successor, but how many successors have been changed in the past five thousand years? Nucker's position remained motionless.
Newkel's status in Druch is very high. He is Valahar of Krakarond, the adjutant of Witch King Malekith, and a fear lord with first-rate personal strength and war literacy. Although Darkos has never Saw Nuecker take action.
The first one must be His Majesty the Witch King Malekith!
The second is Malekith’s good mother Morathi, who is in charge of Gorond. Gorond does not have the positions of Night Governor and Valahar. The entire Gorond is completely decided by Morathi, who has both identity and strength. .
The third is Anasara, the night governor of Krakalond. Her spellcasting ability is lower than that of Malekith and her son, ranking third in Druchi society. Her husband Kedelon is Alandrian's younger brother, and he also served as Malekith's adjutant. He followed Malekith on his journey around the medieval world, and fought side by side with Malekith against the Karra during the civil war. Ledo I. She stayed in the Tower of Destruction all year round and did not participate in the government affairs of Krakarond. She would not hold the power in her hands and let her son Nukel stare and do nothing. She usually doesn't come down when there are no big or important things. Big things and important things refer to participating in various wars, dangerous battles that require the sorceresses to cast spells, going to Naggarond to participate in the Dark Council and convening Hanil Hala. As long as she doesn't die, she can ensure the continuation of the Hell Calamity family in Druch society.
The fourth is Hal Gansi's Heliben. Hal Gansi, like Grond, also has the positions of Night Governor and Valahar. Heliben was Alandrian's daughter, although Malekith and his son looked down upon her and did not like her as much as her father did. But for various historical and religious reasons, that's what it is now, Drukhi society needs to gather a bunch of religious lunatics in one place.
The fifth is Newkel. Although he is the Varahar of Krakarond, he also handles the government affairs of Krakarond, which is equivalent to the night governor and Varahar handling it with one hand. His authority is so great that he can stand beside the Witch King Malekith in Naggarond. He is not a 60-year-old prince, but the core of the Hell Calamity family is his mother Annasara. If something happens to his mother, no one will extend her life. He will not live long, and he is in a very difficult situation. Delicate state.
Similarly, the politics of Druchi society are also very delicate. No matter how the night governors, Valahar, Dread Lords and Black Ark Admirals of Hagrid Grave and Kalonde Kal are changed, the top leaders of Druchi have always been These few are either mother and son, madmen, or members of the Alandrian family. They have a strange nepotism and partnership relationship?
Larkath Thousand Bites and Loxia Corrupt Heart are just the middle-level families of Karonde Kal, not even the Night Governor and Valahar. Hal Gancy's Tularis Fear-Bearer was the Executioner Captain selected by Helen Ben, and was the counterpart to Malekith's Black Guard Captain Coran Blackhand. He was the outstanding Kaine assassin shadow trained by Helen Ben. The sword is probably not born yet. Malekith's champion Urien Baneblade? Maybe this will be born?
The notorious Mangil Human Skin was killed by Darkus long ago. As for Malus Black Blade? Could this be on the way to Tz'arkan? May Tzeentch bless him!
This is basically the socio-political status of Druch.
"Walter of the Thornthorn family, can you let him study? I am very satisfied with his performance in Lustria." Darkus raised his head and blew out the smoke from his mouth and said.
For such a good thing, Darkus must have brought Walter along. He suddenly remembered that he had talked about this with Walter when they were in Spicazuma. After hearing this, Walter's face turned pale with joy. Walter must have I will be very happy to know this news! In his big plan, he planned to place Walter in Chapeuto to manage the land on Chapeuto and the Cochen Plain. In the future, that land must be Druch and labor dispatch from all over the world. Mostly, there are only a few lizardmen.
Labor dispatch is a newly coined word by Darkus, which refers to providing jobs to fellow villagers in the Old World and Norsca who need work. As for the intermediary? Of course it is Black Ark. Although it contains black words, Darkus guarantees that it is definitely not black! Absolutely treat everyone equally and enjoy the same high-quality treatment!
"Okay, then should I still help him find a marriage partner?" Newkel said teasingly.
"That's really good. He was bitten by a snake in Lustria before and almost died." Darkus heard Nukel's teasing and directly hit the snake with a stick.
"You should go to your good brother Maranur about this matter." Nukel then said something, inhaled the smoke and exhaled, and then said to Darkus with a sinister look on his face, "His Majesty the Witch King Malekith , I have heard some stories about your deeds. The Dark Council of Naggarond will be convened in half a year. I am going to take you to attend, and then you will stay with His Majesty the Witch King Malekith as an adjutant."
"What the hell? Is it okay if I serve as Malekith's adjutant? Can I teach Malekith to smoke? Smoke Malekith, and then the smoke comes out of the Midnight Armor?" Darkus thought quickly. For a moment, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it. A picture immediately appeared in his mind, and he simply stopped thinking about it.
"My good brother, where is Maranur?" This was a notification, not a question. Darkus couldn't help it, but with the idea that he should be called a good brother if he does good things, he asked directly. "Do you want Maranur to also serve as an adjutant to His Majesty the Witch King Malekith?" Upon hearing this, Nukel stopped the pipe that was brought to his lips, then put it down and looked at Darkus Said seriously.
"Have you thought about it?" Newkel asked directly when he saw that Darkeus didn't respond.
Darkos was thinking a lot at this time. As a member of the Hell Calamity Family, he had to do some things, such as becoming an adjutant. He was only well-known in Krakalond now, and there was no need to go north. Druchi preyed on him, became familiar with Malekith, and gained a certain political status in Druchi society. This was the part he had to leave. But in the long run, he couldn't stay in Krakarlond forever, and there was no golden toilet that he didn't need to sit on like a mummy. Lustria doesn't care? That's his essence.
If something unexpected happens to Anasara, and the fine tradition of brotherhood and brotherhood in the Hell Calamity family can still be maintained, Maranur is a good choice. Maranur is familiar with Krakarond, and perhaps with the help of him and the Hellscourge family, he can inherit the position of Night Governor and become his link in Druch society. if not? After he became the night governor of Krakalond, he just sat here every day. After being out for a while, he had to come back to solve the rebellion and put out the fire? It's so noisy, are you having trouble with your brain?
As for Maranur being the night governor of Krakarond, what is Darkus doing? Of course I want to be the Phoenix King!
But having said that, things will change, and external influences will follow. Who knows what will happen in the future?
"Yes." After thinking about it, Darkus exhaled the smoke, looked into Nukel's eyes, nodded firmly and replied.
"In your eyes, the continent of Lustria is more important than the society of Krakaron and Druchi." Nukel looked into Darkos' eyes and then continued, "Now that you have decided, then In this way, I will give you two days off, and come here for breakfast the day after tomorrow."
Darkus knew that this meant serving tea to see off the guests. He took the pipe and slowly stood up, pulled out his chair and bowed his head to Newkel. , then slowly backed away, opened the door with his backhand, walked backwards, bowed his head and saluted again before going out.
"Ha, have a friendly exchange with Slan." Newkel looked at the closed door, exhaled a puff of smoke, shook his head slightly, and then looked at the ceiling and whispered.
Newkel knew that Darkus had hidden some information, so he just casually mentioned Belsarius and nodded at Darkus. Judging from Darkus's reaction, he understood. Every Druchi had his own secret, and he was so open-minded that he didn't get to the bottom of it.
Just like Newkel never asked how Darkus became Moraygor Heg and was chosen by God, why a Black Guard Black Tower Master came to Darkus, and why that time The Great Demon of Slaanesh will appear in the Twilight Tide, and there are so many elven gods willing to come to help. Why does Darkos know the Soul Dagger and the Great Demon of Chaos so well. None of this matters! The important thing is that he saw in Darkus the possibility of returning to Nagaryth, his hometown.
Five thousand years have passed, and returning to Nagaryth has become Newkel's obsession, but he is not yet possessed by magic.
When Darkus went out, he saw Dulias and his son and Butler Dia waiting at the door. Dulias looked like a middle-aged Druchi, with an ordinary appearance, very Druchi, but that look The gold and black tiara is very interesting and unique.
"Dakus, my nephew, let's go downstairs to chat. I have something to say to you." After nodding to each other, Dulias looked at Darkus and said directly.
"Okay, my uncle." Darkus nodded and said seriously.
Maranur came over and patted Darkus on the shoulder.
Butler Dia did not go down, but stood at the door of the study. Dulias walked in front, and the Dacus brothers walked behind.
It has been a long time since dinner time, and except for a few waiters, there are no children in the family dining with the Druchi brought back by Darkus in the dining area.
Dulias waved his hand to dismiss the waiter, and he sat next to the long dining table. Darkus sat opposite him. After Maranur looked around, he did not sit next to him, but sat next to Darkus.
Darkus glanced at Maranur, and Maranur blinked at him and raised his head to indicate.
"My uncle, how did my father die?" Darkus asked directly after Maranur sat down before Dulias could think about it.
"Milagliano, the city fortifications there are completely different from the previous ones. It is a strange slope, exquisitely constructed, and indestructible. The assault was blocked at that time, and your father insisted on launching the assault from the swamp outside the city, but there There is also a strange leaning tower, and your father was hit by artillery. My nephew, I am sorry about your father!" Dulias looked at Darkus and said slightly apologetically.
From Dulias's brief description, Dacus knew that his father died unjustly. Miragliano of the southern city-state had already completed the construction of the rhombus slope fortifications at this time, and the man who presided over the construction Is it the famous Leonardo da Vinci, Leonardo da Miragliano, magic and reaper ballistae versus rhombus fortifications and artillery in the medieval world?
"May Lilith bless him." Darkus said something strange. He didn't say any cliche about what Druchi should do. He was telling it to Druchi outside the Hell Calamity family.
Of course, catching a cannonball with a face is just a joke. Viscount Albaison of Bretonnia is a Holy Grail Knight, and he does not have a face to catch a cannonball. But during the duel, the Empire's artillery attacked his army, and he was attracted to it, and was then sneak attacked by the Empire's Marshal Rick, Kurt Helberg. The other is the table rule. If you have good dice luck, there is a chance that you can catch a cannonball, but this does not prevent it from becoming a popular joke.
Dulias and his son looked at Darkus with some doubts.
"You guys chat, I still have some things to deal with." Dulias has been out at sea all year round. He is not very familiar with his son and his nephew, and has nothing to talk about. After getting up, he said to the two Dacus brothers. Then left.
The two brothers Darkus stood up to salute and then sat down again.
"My dear brother, let me tell you some news by the way. The uncles of the three brothers and sisters of the Takaia family also died in the war." Maranur put his hand on Darkus' shoulder and whispered.
"? Don't tell me that my father and the uncle of the three brothers and sisters died from a cannonball." Darkus, who was about to think, suddenly turned his head and looked at Maranur and said.
"Who told you? How did you know?" Maranur leaned back and said in surprise.
"You are so open-minded!" Darkus couldn't help but sigh.
