Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 123 On the airship

While Colonel William was feverishly engaged in the adaptation training of the Steam Knight Armor, the palace envoy who had defected to Perfect Court was also returning to the empire on the airship she lent.

Sitting in the cabin of the airship, the palace envoy who now had a dual identity was sitting at a small table, writing a letter in the light coming in from the porthole.

The palace specially used a quill pen to write on a piece of white paper. The letter paper that had been written aside had this line at the beginning: "Your Highness the Princess, I have contacted Earl Brandlis. At present, she Everything is going smoothly and you don’t have to worry about it.”

Obviously, this palace envoy is not what he appears to be, just a simple palace attendant.

"This Earl of Brandlis is still too young to believe my identity so easily..." Putting a piece of written letter aside, the palace envoy raised his head and looked out the window, seeing the blue sky as far as the eye could see. The white clouds made him feel emotional.

At this time, the airship was sailing above the sea of ​​clouds, and the thick clouds beneath them were like a white ocean.

This experience is unimaginable for humans who have never flown into the sky.

Even a strong-minded agent like the Palace Envoy, who is specially trained by the Intelligence Bureau, will inevitably be shaken when he sees such a scenery for the first time.

This also made him sincerely admire Purficott's talent, which was truly enough to change an era.

Just like Master Watt who invented the steam engine, their inventions are enough to promote the process of human civilization.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but lament that if there was no threat of the end of the world, Perficott would inevitably become the most dazzling star of the empire, shining brightly in this era.

Instead of using her talents to save humanity like now.

But perhaps a genius is a genius under any circumstances. Even in the face of the end of the world, the Earl of Brandlis still showed her unparalleled wisdom and talent. The nobles in the imperial capital are still wondering what measures to take to solve the problem. When she was arguing about the end of the world, she had already taken action to save herself and humanity.

Although she was quite helpless in saving mankind, even so, the palace envoy could feel that Purficott had indeed invested a lot of energy in this matter and had achieved quite gratifying results. Results.

He couldn't even imagine how humanity would have survived this terrible catastrophe without the efforts of Purficott and the people of the empire alone.

According to the news he learned, Perficott was the first to discover and warn the empire about the doomsday, but so far other countries in the old world know nothing about it!

This shows how much valuable time Perficott bought for the empire!

If we really want to be like other countries and not know when a disaster is coming, mankind will definitely not have enough preparation time to deal with this terrible disaster.

At that time, the empire will be caught off guard by this sudden world-destroying disaster, and no one may even survive at all.

From this point of view, no amount of support given by the royal family to Purficott is too much, even if she has caused a massacre in the New World colonies.

In fact, this is also one of his tasks. As a special envoy of the royal family, he investigates what happened to the tragedy that Perficott caused in New Shaker City.

To be honest, when he first saw the terrifying statue, he was almost scared to death. Especially when he heard that these people were kept alive to make such horrific works of art, he felt sincerely afraid.

As an agent, he has actually seen life and death, and has even been prepared to sacrifice his life for the empire, but this does not mean that he can accept being grown out of his body by a tree, like a skewer. skewers on branches like barbecue.

Death is a very simple matter. During training, every Intelligence Agency agent will get a specially prepared poison to put in his back tooth socket, and can be used to commit suicide when necessary.

As long as the back tooth socket is broken, the poison will take away the agent's life instantly, without pain or delay.

But this is completely different from facing such painful torture.

So much so that when he saw the statue, he even backed down.

Because he was afraid that after his identity was discovered by Purficott, if she wanted to kill him, she would string herself to a tree like this and make herself suffer for several days before dying. Would he be able to bear it? .

The answer is obviously no, no one can bear this kind of torture.

At the same time, he also understood why Purficott did what he did, and sincerely felt the significant effect of this move.

According to reports from colleagues in the Intelligence Bureau, the independence movement in the entire New World colonies almost reached its lowest ebb during this period, and all independence movement organizations that had been publicly active fell into silence.

No one dares to provoke this terrifying Earl at this moment when the smell of blood in Xinshak City has not yet dissipated.

Some people even gave her an unpleasant nickname, called Scarlet Alchemist, which means the alchemist who brings blood and killing.

For a fourteen-year-old aristocratic lady, this nickname was indeed very unpleasant, but when he told Purficott about it, the earl who single-handedly created this tragedy only said: "There is no better deal than killing a few people and preventing more deaths."

As for the bad reputation? Purficott felt that a title that could be used to intimidate would help her establish authority.

"I have to say that in a sense, she has indeed established amazing authority. This method of intimidation is very effective." The palace envoy retracted his thoughts and continued to write on the paper, and also attached his own evaluation. : “The empire’s policy towards the colonization of the New World has always been tolerant in the past, which led to the rise of the independence movement. Although I believe that the colonial authorities can handle these problems, even if an armed rebellion does occur, the empire’s army will be enough to suppress it.

But I have to say that compared with Count Brandlis's methods, our efficiency seems to be too low. In less than a week, she accomplished something that the empire has not been able to accomplish in the past few years, and the cost was Just a few hundred deaths. "

Thinking of this, the palace envoy couldn't help but compare the low administrative efficiency of the empire with Perficott's efficient execution in the north, and wrote in his letter: "Her Royal Highness, looking at Earl Brandlis Sometimes I even wonder if the empire is really corrupt, so that we are not even as good as a child..."
