The Dog Rider is the Demon King
Chapter 57 Prologue
The rain finally stopped, but the sky above West City was still covered by thick clouds, only occasionally some faint sunlight was projected down in the faint gaps in the middle of the clouds, but it was blocked by the thick clouds again in an instant.The entire West City is still shrouded in clouds, and the sky is not visible all day long.
At the same time, rumors abounded in West City.I don't know who mentioned it first, saying that the demons have already controlled the government, and there may be many demons around them who have placed their eyeliners here.The news spread like wildfire among the crowd, and soon everyone in West City was in danger, fearing that the neighbors were undercover agents sent by the demons.Every household stays behind closed doors and does not dare to say hello to anyone they meet on the road. They only dare to say a few words unless they are old friends they have known for a long time. They also pay attention to the wind and grass around them, for fear that the people passing by are eyeliners. .
In fact, they don't even think about it, they're just chatting everyday, what's there for the demon eyeliner to eavesdrop on?
However, in this way, the demons who were rented to live in the slums were even more in danger. Those unidentified demons left for real or fake, but within three days, the overcrowded slums were even more crowded. It was empty, with some dirty glass hanging on the dilapidated and gray walls. The inside of the room was dark, like the eyes of demons, which made people really scared.
However, the supply of food materials that could not be replenished due to the weather, is now sold out because everyone wants to hoard a large amount of food materials because everyone is closed.
All the vegetables have been hyped up to sky-high prices, not everyone can afford it, and not everyone can afford it.There are always some poor people who really have no money and really can't eat, and I don't know who started it. All the people who can't afford to eat gather in the cathedral, waiting for the relief of the priests and bishops.
In fact, there are not so many places in the church, and there is no ability to feed so many people.So the cathedral closed its doors and refused people to come, and the whole city fell into chaos in an instant. Hungry people blocked the door of the cathedral every day, shouting for the people inside to come out and distribute food to them.
"Your Highness, why did you do this?" Yuki and Brent stood in front of the stained glass on the top floor of the cathedral, looking at the chaotic scene in front of the church door, "Your Highness clearly knows that people depend on food for their livelihood, and they still do this Let people keep them out. Once these hungry people go berserk, I'm afraid they will..."
"Look, it's coming soon." Brent was still confident and didn't answer Yuki's words.
Watson pushed open the door of the room: "Your Highness, drive them all out, the next step..."
"Don't worry, starve them for another two days. The best effect can only be achieved if they suddenly appear at the most perfect moment. Ron has been away for five or six days. Is there any news?"
"It takes at least half a month to transfer food such as vegetables, rice and noodles from the nearest town. Fortunately, half of the team left by Ubo is a magician. Otherwise, such a large-scale transportation is really hard to say. .”
"Why are you so careful? Ron is using my name and borrowing relief food. Even if they don't bring magicians there, they don't dare to neglect you. I remember when I saw you when I was a child, you were still very high-spirited It looks like, why now that the fat has gone up, but the temper has softened?"
"When I first came here, I was unaccompanied and had a mission. I lived cautiously every day. As time passed, it was natural. But after I gradually integrated into this kind of life, it got better." Watson's fat and greasy face There was a smile on his face, but there was a gleam of light in his squinted eyes.
"I think in a few years you will really forget what you are here for. Back then, Mittelhall IV said it well, telling you to prepare for a protracted war, and told you to keep it in the yard all the time. Roses are blooming. The roses are delicate and delicate, and the yard is full of roses. It takes some time to take good care of them. If the roses are not in bloom, it naturally proves that your spirit is in the power field of sensuality; If you bloom well, it naturally proves that although you seem to be fascinated by the money, you still have nothing else to do. I dared to use you only after I saw those flowers."
"It's hard for Your Highness to remember, when you were young, Your Highness."
"Don't worry, this matter is over, I'll go back to Mikhail, and let him recall you back so you can fulfill your ambitions." Brent smiled, looking at the rioting crowd downstairs outside the window After a circle, he stopped talking.
Listening to Brent's words, Yuki restored Brent's plan in his heart, and also showed a satisfied smile, and secretly said in his heart: "It seems that the time is really right for Lidal to come, His Highness has finally made up his mind."
Within a few days, many starving people appeared in the city. Although there were still complaints in the city, the violent voices gradually weakened, and most of them were full of resentment.Brent felt that the time was right, and picked a random day to distribute food in the middle of the city.Even though it was just some simple rice soup and some black bread mixed with rice bran and bran, it also attracted those hungry people to scramble for it. The scene was out of control for a while. Fortunately, Watson rushed to help in time, which made the place loose. few.
The next day, Ron drove over from a nearby town with a large number of carriages full of ingredients. On the day he arrived, Eris ordered the city gate to be opened, and the common people who heard the news gathered spontaneously at the city gate. All the way to welcome, cheers and applause.Not only these ordinary people, but also those little nobles who have a head and a face were suddenly hit by disasters, and they didn't live the extravagant life before for nearly half a month just to survive.The normally delicate nobles were almost unable to survive, so the ingredients Ron brought back this time can be regarded as saving them.Although these are things they usually don't want to touch, but in this situation...they can't care so much anymore.
It can be regarded as overcoming the difficulties. Now the water in the city has receded, and the transportation has naturally resumed. It didn't take long for the previous life to resume. People also forgot about this matter. .
But one wave is not flat, and another wave rises again.
The cause of the incident was that in an inconspicuous tree shade, two old friends met by chance and were chatting.
"Hey, have you heard? The reason why the city lord came to direct the mages in person during the rainstorm was mainly because of the leaders of the mages' union..." When he said this, the man looked at the mages carefully. Looking at the happy-looking people around him, he deliberately lowered his voice and whispered in his friend's ear, "They're all missing."
"No way, such a big thing happened, how could there be no word about it, don't be fooled by false news."
"Let me tell you, it's absolutely impossible to be fake. My neighbor's aunt's nephew is the assistant to the logistics director of the Magician's Union, and he has been at home for several days."
"He must have been fired."
"How can it be? The Magician's Guild is an iron rice bowl. As long as you don't make a big mistake, you won't be able to get down. Besides, if he really lies about this, it's a serious crime. Who would dare?"
"When you really said it, I remembered it. That's right. It was justifiable for the city lord to come during the heavy rain, but then the rain stopped, and there was something wrong with the city lord still on the front line."
"Are you saying that it's because the demons really control the government? Didn't you see that the person who solved the high vegetable prices recently is His Royal Highness? Isn't this very strange?"
Similar conversations continued to be staged in various places in West City, and the viral spread instantly ignited the second more intense suspicion.For a while, everyone was discussing this matter.
"Okay, now you should know what I want to do." Seeing the rumors rising, Brent looked at Yuki standing in front of him and raised his eyebrows.
"Public opinion? But what use are these ordinary people who have no fighting power?"
"Do you know what the power structure of our country of Isutan looks like?" Brent did not answer Yuki's question directly, but threw another question.
"Ok?"
"Isutan's power structure is a simple hexahedron, the tip of which is the government, or the ruling class; the next three vertices of the triangle are the magicians' union, church, and monastery, which manage some infrastructure, security, and beliefs. Some other small institutions play some auxiliary roles, which are generally not very important. But the bottom point of the rights structure is always the general public. An analysis of the rights structure in other countries can find that no matter it is an inverted pyramid, Whether it is an inverted tetrahedron, or a regular octahedron, or any other form, the general public will always form the bottom point, which is also a very important point that cannot be replaced.”
"So?" Yuki didn't understand why Brent mentioned these things, he had indeed seen them in the book, but he didn't know why Brent mentioned these irrelevant things at this time.
Brent paced around the room: "Now put West City into this hexahedron model, the monastery no longer exists, and there are only four points left. I have two hole cards in my hand ——Clika, and Watson. Watson means the church is mine. Among the remaining three points, the top point seems to be firmly controlled by them now, and Eris is the only one. There is no way to make a comeback. Then there are two points left. What they did before was to make the people lose confidence in the government, that is, to take the bottom point into their pockets. Then they kidnapped the magicians union Firstly, the leadership wanted to mislead me; secondly, because of my existence, they forced them to speed up their pace. They must immediately coerce the emperor to order the princes, and force the magician union, which has always remained neutral, to stand on their side. As long as you control Without these leaders, don’t worry that those great magicians won’t listen to them.”
Yuki was still confused, and looked at Brent blankly: "But what does this have to do with what you have done for more than half a month?"
"Spreading rumors that the demons have controlled the government is to make their previous actions come to naught, and let the common people understand that the reason why the government failed to take good care of their lives before is because they were controlled by the demons. In this way Their resistance to me will be reduced, which is equivalent to this point that they pinched between their fingers, and now I hold it in my hand. They want to grab it and spend some effort. As for the hold? I don't care. Because the point of this step is to expose the matter of the upper echelons of the Magician Union in their hands. Do you think... At this time, I said that I have a way to rescue them, and they will still be played by the demons in the palm of their hands. Is it?" Brent chuckled, looking contemptuously at the thick clouds outside the window.
"So you sent out all the magicians before, just because you didn't want them to come into contact with the demons?"
"More than that, if this plan is to be implemented, panic is the key. I need a big turmoil, so that they have no time to take care of our every move, so they can only hide their little tails first. Just wait, it will be very late." People from the Mage Union will come to the door soon."
The roses in the glass vase by the window were a little dry, and Brent picked off the yellowed petals, crushed them in his palm, and threw them back into the glass vase.He half-raised his eyelids and joked: "The wool comes from the sheep, and the cleverness is misunderstood by the cleverness."
The author has something to say:
First of all, the description of the power structure at the end is completely made up by me, and I also borrowed some things from the lattice (probably my structural chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and physical chemistry teachers will go crazy if they know...)
Secondly, I'm not happy that there is no Ron in this chapter.
Then, I edited this one many times, tinkering, adding and modifying, and now what you see is what I am quite satisfied with...
In the end, nothing can be shaken - I love you all.
