Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

At this time, Caron was getting dressed and preparing to go to the royal palace in Anjou to attend a scheduled meeting.

Alberto thought that Capet's round table meeting system was quite good at the beginning, and after being improved by Lilith, it has become a regular meeting system, and this regular meeting system has now been copied by Alberto.

Albert was originally a very diligent monarch. Holding a small meeting every three days and a big meeting every seven days was not a problem for him at all. The only problem was that the nobles of Anjou were much busier than the nobles of Capet before and were often absent.

But now almost all the nobles who can come will be present, because the pressure from Capet forces these nobles to start keeping abreast of the latest developments with Alberto.

And Caron's status also rose with the news from the tower and the pressure from Capet.

After all, everyone is now considering the power and super-level magic from the other side.

This even put Caron's status on par with Alberto's most trusted aide, Cassius, for a short period of time.

"His Majesty."

Kalon bowed respectfully in the main hall of the palace and then took his seat.

The meeting officially began only after Caron took his seat.

"The other side is constantly provoking us on our border, and those steel monsters are firing almost every day!"

The first to speak was the military marshal.

"The enemy's steel monsters are too exaggerated. Even if we have the means to break through their defenses, it will be difficult to approach them under the protection of their infantry."

This is an old problem. Ever since the advent of tanks, Anjou has never been able to gain any advantage in field battles.

At the same time, image information about the tanks was also distributed to the nobles attending the meeting.

"This is a real provocation to us and a mockery of our incompetence!"

After the military marshal finished speaking, the meeting fell into silence until Alberto spoke.

"Can you capture one?"

Alberto looked at the tank in the image and couldn't help feeling itchy in his heart. This thing was much more attractive to Alberto than the daughters of those nobles.

"Your Majesty, Capet's Southwestern Frontier Army is no longer the same as before. It is now commanded by the Duke of the Southern Frontier himself. It is no longer possible to just scare the enemy and make them drop their weapons and flee like before."

But the military marshal changed the subject and looked at the unfamiliar figures in the hall, saying, "It's difficult to capture a group, but if you want to capture a lone one, there's still a chance if Your Majesty is willing to help."

After taking a look at the tank's image data, the unfamiliar figures snorted coldly, "Your Majesty, you are not really going to let us grab this pile of scrap metal, are you? We came back to help you achieve your hegemony, not to be ordered around by a bunch of mortals."

These high-level professionals spoke in an arrogant tone and did not take the tanks seriously at all. In their view, although Capet's strange things were powerful, they were too bulky. As long as they used large-scale magic to cleanse the infantry, wouldn't these tanks be just toys made of a pile of scrap metal?

"Besides, Your Majesty, aren't we enough? That Governor Capet is too arrogant. We finally came back from the tower, but that kid still wants to set rules for us. Only a fool would go and join them."

"Your Majesty now has so many high-level professionals. Can't you just start a full-scale war and defeat them?"

The military marshal remained silent and did not even dare to sigh.

Since the return of these high-level professionals, the situation in Anjou has become increasingly chaotic. The traditional military's voice is gradually shrinking, while the voice of those nobles who have defected to the high-level professionals is gradually increasing.

However, these high-level professionals' understanding of war still remains at the level of more than ten years ago. Whoever has more professionals and casts more powerful spells will win.

"I understand your feelings, but this is also for our hegemony. I assure you that as long as you can capture this steel monster called a tank intact, you will also receive the military merit and respect you deserve."

Alberto is also under a lot of pressure. These high-level professionals are very difficult to control. In order to cooperate with them and meet their demands, Alberto's Minister of Economy has been losing hair visibly recently.

For this reason, Alberto even had to open up some special trades to guests from the other side in order to make more money.

Alberto now has only one way, which is to divert conflicts externally. As long as he can defeat Capet, everything will be fine.

After hearing what Alberto said, several high-level professionals didn't say anything more. Only a few people whispered that they felt that Alberto was too afraid of Capet and too cowardly.

After all, there were only a few high-level professionals who defected to Capet, and other professionals, apart from returning to their hometowns, most of them defected to Alberto, including those high-level professionals originally from Capet.

After all, who would want to jump from one cage to another?

Karon was silently observing the meeting. The Avar Kingdom would not have this problem because it was now ruled by the families of high-level professionals and dragons, and the king was just a symbol.

Those high-level professionals monopolized knowledge and power. Even if there were geniuses who could break through a series of shackles and become high-level professionals, they would only be trained to become super-level magic emitters. Apart from that, it would be difficult for them to come into contact with other magic.

Sooner or later, the Kingdom of Anjou will become like this.

After finalizing the basic plan, Cassius stepped forward and said, "Next is the excavation of the ruins from the old empire. The progress is going very smoothly. With the help of the high-level spellcasters, we have been able to reproduce some of the technology from the old empire."

Hearing this, many nobles stood up and applauded, even the military marshal who had been frowning before. They did not expect that the technology from the old empire could be reproduced so quickly. This was beyond everyone's imagination.

This made everyone sigh that high-level professionals were indeed expensive for a reason.

However, the high-level professional who was responsible for reproducing the old empire's technology was full of arrogance: "In the old empire, there were no high-level professionals. These are just some low-level tricks for us."

This was a lie. The technology from the Old Empire had actually made these high-level professionals extremely anxious. Some of their ideas seemed to be completely detached from current technology and were as obscure and difficult to understand as the knowledge from the previous world. If Cassius had not been a guide and pointed out research directions for these high-level professionals, these high-level professionals might still be confused by the research materials from the Old Empire.

"In the old empire, there were many specialized professionals who specialized in certain skills, just like us. This is very worthy of our reference. I believe that it won't be long before we can use the power of the old empire to restore its glory!"

This was one of the few good news in recent times, and it made everyone present feel a lot more relaxed.

However, someone immediately asked Cassius: "There are many relics of the old empire in Capet, right? What if Capet also starts to study the relics of the old empire?"

Cassius shook his head and said, "Don't worry about that. Regardless of whether Cape has as many high-level professionals as us to assist in research, we have recently received news that the governor of Cape has given up researching the old empire's technology for some unknown reason."

The reason why Linde gave up was simple. Why should he continue to work hard digging the soil with a Luoyang shovel when he could just ask the 550C for something?

But the nobles of Anjou had their own ideas: "After all, Capet is now under attack from three sides. I guess the pressure is very great. He has no energy left to conduct research."

Cassius remained noncommittal and continued, “Thanks to the materials left behind by the old empire and the guests from the tower, we are able to glimpse the mysteries of the soul and the secrets of the gods.”

The high-level professionals also nodded and said to Alberto: "Your Majesty, although the knowledge about soul and consciousness cannot be put into actual combat, we must conduct in-depth research."

"We are already far ahead of Cape in this regard, but we must also be cautious and consolidate our first-mover advantage."

"By the time Capet reacts, their souls and consciousness may have been conquered by us."

There was cheerful laughter in the meeting hall.
