Chapter 814 The Southern Border Is Boiling

time flies.

News that the entire expedition team had been wiped out spread like wildfire throughout the southern border.

All the nobles, big and small, seemed to have seen a ghost. They felt that as soon as they woke up, the world would go crazy.

The infamous, dandy and incompetent fourth prince was able to withstand the conquests of the eight nobles in the south, and it is said that he still won a complete victory with a crushing advantage.

This is incredible.

Although the army of 4,000 ghosts in this expedition was only part of the force of the eight noble families and was not an all-out force, even this lineup was enough to sweep through any supernatural land in the south.

And what does the fourth prince have?

In the nearly two years of the King's Trial, all I could hear was that the fourth prince had done some ridiculous things that made the royal family lose face. As for the territory, let alone management, I'm afraid he couldn't even understand the finances.

How could such a good-for-nothing prince who had become a laughing stock be able to defeat the southern coalition forces?

Puzzled.

Puzzled.

Shocked.

Uproar.

For a while.

The ghosts are noisy.

The discussion about the Fourth Prince is getting more and more intense.

There are two arguments in total.

One: Whether the fourth prince has been disguising himself.

"What are you talking about? Disguise? Are you saying that all the fourth prince's actions over the years, including the ridiculous things he did in the royal city, were all done intentionally by him?"

Some people were puzzled.

His eyes were filled with astonishment.

"That's right. Apart from deliberately pretending, is there any other reason to explain this matter? If the fourth prince is really a fool, how could he defeat the conquest team of the eight noble families?"

"But why is this? He is a royal prince who has been at the top since birth. Why does he need to pretend to be a playboy and do all kinds of ridiculous things?"

"I think... the fourth prince must have felt threatened. The royal family has no family ties. Even if they are brothers and sisters, once someone threatens their status, the family ties will instantly turn into a sharp sword. The fourth prince may have sensed this. This is how we avoid potential threats."

"Oh my God, I still remember that the fourth prince was less than ten years old when this kind of stigma spread. A child under ten years old not only knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but also had such a careful mind, even Deliberately not improving your own strength and turning yourself into a real "dandy"?"

These words.

The shock made all the ghosts lose their spirits.

Because once this statement is accepted, it seems reasonable for the fourth prince to defeat the conquest army.

They guessed that the fourth prince had been waiting for an opportunity.

This opportunity is the King Contest Trial.

Only by participating in the King's Trial can he leave the royal city, cultivate himself steadily, manage his own power, and work hard to improve his voice.

And now...

He did it.

During the two years of the King's Trial, the fourth prince pretended to be a playboy to confuse others, while secretly arming his own army in a border town, secretly infiltrating the army, and finally became a blockbuster.

Second: What on earth does the fourth prince want to do?

This is the crux of the argument.

after all.

In the past trials of fighting for the king, the relationship between the princes, princesses and local nobles has always been very harmonious and complementary to each other. However, the fourth prince went in the opposite direction and openly confronted the largest noble in the south. This was simply seeking death.

Even though the fourth prince could defeat the conquest army, once the Duke of the Southern Territory reacted and gathered all the noble forces under his command to come out in full force, the border town would be flattened in no time based on its size.

"The fourth prince is looking for death. His intention is already obvious. The sword guides the realm and becomes the final winner of the King's Trial with a crushing advantage."

"It's too urgent. He obviously still has more than three years, but he chose the most unsafe way."

"Hey, time waits for no one. The fourth prince has been lagging behind for nearly two years. Even if he starts to govern and govern the territory now, his progress is completely behind the other princes and princesses. His only chance to overtake is to control the entire southern territory. , becoming the undisputed number one as the leader of the Southern Territory."

The ghosts discussed.

It's all a pity.

If the fourth prince had not wasted the first two years, he would have had a chance to compete with other royal heirs based on his abilities.

Unfortunately……

He was assigned to the poorest territory.

This opening itself is already on the verge of elimination.

Nowadays, if you want to overtake, you can only take the wrong approach.

However……

This is a road of no return.

With the size of a three-star supernatural place, no matter who comes to fight against the counterattack of the entire southern noble force, I am afraid they will feel powerless.

In their opinion, if the fourth prince can choose a large and rich supernatural land as his territory, the position of the crown prince may not be the fourth prince's. It is a pity... When his own ghost life is threatened, the fourth prince can only You can choose to save your life first, and then pretend to be a "dandy".

Apparently.

This is an unsolvable choice.

…

While there are heated discussions in the southern border, there are also new trends in the western border next door.

The white five-star player with the ID [Adolf] walked into the small warehouse where the players gathered and said straight to the point: "The victory of the fourth prince was something that none of us expected. Now, we have two options. First, take advantage of the fourth prince's victory. The prince is not successful, so joining his team will be much easier than joining other princes and princesses."

"Second: Make thermal weapons and use them to get into the sight of other princes and princesses."

This sentence was also sent to the chat interface simultaneously by Adolf.

The place suddenly fell into silence.

At this time.

A black player asked: "Are thermal weapons useful? Haven't they been tested and modern thermal weapons can't affect ghost kings and above?"

Adolf said solemnly: "No, it is effective. Otherwise, how could flintlocks and rocket launchers kill the top ghost kings and ghosts and gods? I suspect that the reason why modern thermal weapons are ineffective against ghost kings and above is because they use materials from the human world. I think... if we could create thermal weapons in a horror world, the effect would be far different."

"The more advanced the supernatural materials used, the greater the lethality. If the materials used to create ghost king-level ghost weapons can be used to build firearms, their power will be strong enough to kill the ghost king."

Hear this.

All the players in the audience were shocked.

If this speculation is true, then the human world will usher in a new change.

The status of ghost masters will be the same as that of the martial arts masters of the Dragon Kingdom. They will withdraw from the stage of history, allowing the real world to officially return to an era dominated by technology.

Only this time, it's supernatural technology.

"I choose the second option."

Not long after.

Someone makes a decision.

"I would also choose the second option."

"It seems that everyone has the same idea."

"Oh, man, we're not idiots. Why choose one when you can choose two?"

All the players started joking.

The sudden rise of the fourth prince really exceeded everyone's expectations.

But this is not enough for players to travel across mountains and rivers to seek refuge.

Not to mention, the fourth prince is also unable to protect himself now. The power of the Southern Duke is no joke. Even if they have to gamble, they will not choose this option with extremely high mortality rate.

On the contrary, it is the second type that makes them a rare commodity. Once they truly create a hot weapon that can kill the Ghost King, then it will not be that they have tried their best to join the lineup of a certain prince and princess, but The other party in turn invites them to join.

All fools know how to choose.

soon.

Voting is over.

All players chose the second option.

Adolf said: "In that case, we have to think about how to make the same flintlock gun in this backward medieval kingdom. Anyone who knows how to make firearms can come to the West and I can persuade the Viscount's House to provide it." Supernatural materials.”

…

Southern Border·Duke's Mansion.

After a few days.

Duke Elk once again summoned the eight largest nobles under his command.

Count Aino was among them.

But at this time, his expression was very ugly, and his grimace was full of gloom.

And with the same expression, there is also the leader, Duke Elk.

The first person responsible for the complete annihilation of the expedition team was undoubtedly Earl Aino, and the second person responsible was the initiator, the Duke of Elk.

at this time.

The two people's inner thoughts were surprisingly the same: the fourth prince must pay a heavy price.

As everyone knows...

At this moment.

Shen Jian, who was far away in a border town, was also moved. (End of chapter)
