"You haven't been in any trouble, have you?" Mo Bei glanced at Conrad and the dozen or so heavy shield guards in the courtyard, and asked Kane.
"Oh, it's not that difficult, haha..."
Kane's long white beard swayed, but his smile was a little forced. It seemed that he had sensed a deeper crisis through the other party's irrational behavior.
As the only Horadrim, and his knowledge of the enemy, he has a relatively transcendent status in all major human strongholds, so Conrad did not dare to show his face.
"Let's go to Elder Eco."
Mo Bei nodded meaningfully at Kane, which made Kane's eyes condense slightly, and he left the courtyard with him.
Conrad looked at the four people leaving with cold eyes, and finally squeezed out a few words through his teeth:
"Small country is rude!"
Mo Bei heard it, but smiled disdainfully and ignored it.
Kejistan was indeed once the most powerful kingdom in the entire world of Sanctuary, and had a long history that could be traced back to the time of the Mage Tribe.
Today, the kingdom still has three larger cities, the capital Kartim, and two port cities down the river, the seaports of Jikul and Kurast.
Lugaoyin was a small country with only one city and two generations of kings. However, the population supported by that single city was almost as large as the three major cities in Kejistan.
There are mines to the north of your city of Kardim, an oasis to the south, irrigation by large rivers, and a vast hinterland. With such favorable conditions, the population supported by the capital is nearly half less than that of Lu Gaoyin. How can you have the dignity to call yourself a big country, just because you support the most nobles?
This was Mo Bei's non-subjective judgment. He originally thought that this situation was because he had not yet recovered from the corrupt influence of the Zakarum Holy See, but according to Blake's explanations along the way, he found that this was not the case at all. .
The reason why Jehein sent Black as an envoy was because he had stayed in many towns in the Kingdom of Kejistan and had a deep understanding of the actual situation in the Kingdom and could explain it more thoroughly.
The Kingdom of Kejistan has moved its capital three times. It has become unprecedentedly powerful due to the emergence of the Zakarum Cult, and its vitality has been severely damaged due to the corruption of the Holy See. Although it can still continue, it is no longer what Emperor Tasala ruled with the help of the Holy See. That invincible power.
The current monarch, Emperor Hakan, was actually supported by the great nobles when they moved the capital to Kartim. Those great nobles are the actual controllers of the kingdom.
After being suppressed by the royal power and the Holy See for a long time, they became completely complacent as soon as they took control of the kingdom. They even thought that they could sit back and relax as long as they stayed away from the corrupt core of Kurast. The stupidity of their idea shocked Mo Beidou. In comparison, Going down to the front line to plunder resources is nothing.
These aristocratic groups did not send much combat power to the outside world, but were committed to consolidating their rule and maintaining a luxurious life. With this mentality, it was not difficult for the King of Lies, Bile, to control them.
"Kartim City is likely to be the next Kurast..."
After walking some distance, Mo Bei expressed his thoughts and touched Kane's inner worries.
He didn't point out the existence of Billie because he couldn't explain the source of the information, even though he confessed his identity as a time traveler to Kane.
The game incident may have a strong psychological impact on them, and they may even question their own existence, because he has had such doubts about his current state.
The relationship between this world and the game can be said to be the most confusing question in his heart.
Kane nodded silently, looking a little weak.
"Are you here again? They are all on the shelf. They have just been fed. Go and see for yourself."
Eco thought that these people came here because they were concerned about the growth of the little spiders. He felt that this kind of attention was the greatest recognition of his hard research and careful cultivation. In addition, the little spiders were indeed growing well, so when he saw them, they seemed Very happy.
Mo Bei stepped forward to look at them applaudingly, and found that after noon, the little guys' legs and feet looked stronger, and the thorns on them were clearly visible. At this time, most of them were dormant quietly at the bottom of the jar, digesting and absorbing the big meal just now.
They rested when they were full, but Ai Ke was still holding the stone mortar, grinding and preparing various potions, and was busy happily, as if he was serving his ancestors, there were still forty or fifty ancestors. . .
These little ancestors are not only related to the safety of the Kurast Seaport, but also the basis for the exploitation of various resources in the Spider Forest. Without them, the nobles of Kardim City would be in vain if they wanted to seize the resources here.
"Elder Eco, are you from Kejistan?" Mo Bei suddenly asked.
Eco and Kane on the side were startled when they heard this. Kane showed a wry smile and seemed to have understood what Mo Bei was planning from his question.
"I am from Branwell. I have traveled to many places and came here because of the research results of searching for Kuya. I am not from Kejistan. Why do you ask?"
"It's nothing, I just never heard you mention your hometown. Branwell is very close to Rogge Camp, so we are half the same hometown."
Akali couldn't help but smile and said to herself that Branwell is a territory of Westmarch. You, a fellow countryman, are really far away from each other.
Eco, who didn't know what was going on, happily responded to Mo Bei's question while busy with what he was doing:
"Haha, Akara and I are old acquaintances. Maybe we can go back and have a look when things here are over."
Mo Bei understood clearly, and remembered that when Kane brought him to find Eco, he indeed showed absolute trust. It turned out that they were all old revolutionary members. . .
From this point of view, there is basically no possibility that the Kingdom of Kejistan can control these spiders.
This worry is not entirely unnecessary. Although there is no concept of nationality yet, even the job transferees who jointly fight against the forces of hell are actually divided into regions. Those barbarians are still thinking about fighting back to the Holy Mountain of Arreat every day. Go? .
Therefore, worries about civil strife are not unfounded.
"Elder Kane, what do you think about this matter?" Mo Bei asked.
"We should take the initiative and hopefully it's not too late."
As Mo Bei expected, Kane was keenly aware of the possibility of powerful demons causing trouble.
Eco asked doubtfully:
"What's going on?"
Apart from asking Iron Wolf and the job-changers who sent the materials to inquire about the situation in the Spider Forest, he didn't care about anything else. However, he heard that the two of them were discussing something extremely important, so he asked.
"The matter in our Spider Forest has not yet been resolved, but the Kingdom's capital is already concerned about the contents. Some prince has arrived and is planning to send all the resources there to Caldeum City."
After listening to Mo Bei's story, Eco twitched his lips in disbelief, feeling that his knowledge of stupidity had been refreshed, and sneered:
"Then they can dig it out themselves, and no one will stop them."
There is no one to stop it, but there are endless giant spiders.
Then he realized something again, raised his hand and pointed at Mo Bei, and said with an angry smile:
"You kid...I just wonder why you asked me if I am from Kejistan..."
"I'm afraid you won't do anything to your fellow countrymen."
"What to do?"
"What are you going to do?"
Kane and Eco asked at the same time.
"Let's see if this method is feasible." Mo Bei took out the manuscript recording the puppetry technique.
