Liang Taibai's words also have some truth, Xiao Lin knows that the military direction thinks that the future threat of the Dawning Academy will come from other academies, rather than the colony itself, so they would rather give priority to the manpower and material resources to the defense of other academies, and in the treatment of other vassal countries, as long as the core is guaranteed, that is, the resurrection tower, it is completely fine, as for who is the emperor, it has nothing to do with them.
But Xiao Lin's face became worse, and he also thought of a more serious question, and asked, "How many people know the specific content of this monthly exam?"
” "Not much, but not a lot, because it involves the cooperation of several intelligence and diplomatic departments, so the relevant people must know, but it is kept secret from the outside world."
Liang Taibai frowned: "Do you think that someone within us betrayed your intelligence that caused you to be ambushed?"
Unlikely, what's the benefit of betraying one's own people?
” "I'd like to know why, otherwise, it would all seem like a coincidence, but we were attacked as soon as we entered the territory of the Rose, and we were caught as soon as we arrived in town, and the enemy would not have been able to set up such an ambush if he did not fully grasp our movements."
"Don't worry too much, I think something must have gone wrong."
The embassy of the Dawning Academy in the Principality of Roses is located in the most prosperous area, this building with obvious Chinese characteristics can be seen from afar, compared to the desertion of other places in the royal capital, the entrance of the embassy is very lively, a large number of people crowded here, after seeing Liang Taibai appear, these people swarmed up, and the Rose soldiers who maintained order nearby had to shout to come up and drive away.
Even wanton whipping with a leather whip.
It's a way to go.
Let Liang Taibai lead Xiao Lin in.
Xiao Lin looked back at the ragged people who were violently pushed to the ground and moaned in pain under the whipping, and said in a low voice with an unbearable look on his face: "Is this really good?
” Liang Taibai sighed, but said without looking back: "You are naturally used to staying here for a long time, most of the countries in the Norma world are like this, royal power or divine power is supreme, and civilians have no rights at all."
Those people wanted to get a visa to enter the Dawning Academy colony with us, but that was impossible. ” "Why?
Isn't it good to have a lot of cheap labor?
Xiao Lin asked rhetorically, although the construction of Dawning City has been quite perfect, but the construction of several surrounding colonies is always in progress, and it is naturally impossible for them as colonists to do those rough and heavy jobs, these jobs can only hire local natives, so population is still quite important to the development of the colony.
"Originally, the review of visa issuance was quite lenient, but ......"
Liang Taibai paused here for a moment, looked around to see if there was anyone, and then whispered in his ear: "You should also know about the assassination of the principal."
The assassins entered the capital through the issuance of visas, and you say who will carry this pot.
Who dares to carry it?
Therefore, since then, the review of visa issuance has been harsh to the point of almost perversion, and we dare not sign it casually. ” Xiao Lin was taken aback, the assassination of the principal at the end of last semester was actually a thunderstorm and a small rain, which shocked many people when it first happened, but then there were few news reports including newspapers, and under the guidance of deliberate public opinion, many people have gradually forgotten.
He wanted to know more about the inside story, but now was not the time to discuss this, as a vassal country of Dawning Academy, the facilities and conditions of the embassy were all of high standard, agate inlaid decorations, exquisite high-grade animal skin sofas, gold silk carpets, and five-star hotel treatment was nothing more than that.
According to Liang Taibai, because of the war in Rose, the embassy has been relatively busy recently, most people are out of office, and only a few ordinary civil servants with not too high positions are left behind to count documents.
Liang Taibai's position seems quite high, because his private office is a very spacious and luxurious room, and the fireplace in the corner keeps the room warm.
"I'll give you something to drink."
Liang Taibai was very enthusiastic about preparing for Xiao Lin, but it was neither coffee nor tea, it was actually a light red flower similar to a rose, and the flower was brought up with the rhizome, Liang Taibai smiled and said: "This is a rose, oh of course it is not the rose we understand, but the rose of the Norma world, the symbol of this principality." ” Xiao Lin was a little speechless, could it be that the local popular flowers come to enjoy when entertaining guests?
Liang Taibai was already laughing, and he also picked up a rose flower, and then took a very thin straw, inserted it along the rhizome, and then put it in his mouth and sucked it violently, only to see that the light red petals suddenly became dim and withered in an instant.
Xiao Lin was full of amazement when he saw it, and he tried it in the same way, sucked it hard with his habit, and sure enough, he felt a cool liquid flowing into his mouth, flowing down his throat tube into his stomach, that faint aroma with the most mellow natural sweetness, that coolness instantly flowed all over his body, and even the fatigue after the resurrection was slowed down a little.
"That's good."
"Haha, yes, this thing is a bestseller in all the major colleges.
In fact, different colors of petals have their own different flavors. ” Liang Taibai originally wanted to continue the introduction, but seeing Xiao Lin's absent-minded appearance, he knew what he was worried about, so he wisely shifted to the topic: "Do you have any clue about the person who kidnapped you?"
There aren't many people on my side who can use it, but the Duchy of Roses is obedient to us, so it's okay to ask them for help. ” "I'm a little skeptical that it's Asabeno."
"It's that old immortal again, damn it, the last time in Wildfire Town we were tossed up badly, if it was him, it would be a bit of trouble."
Liang Taibai frowned, Xiao Lin and Lilith encountered the undead controlled by Asabeno in Wildfire Town last semester, and even found the polluted Resurrection Tower.
However, these things have not made the slightest wave, and it is obvious that they have been deliberately concealed, probably for fear of causing panic in the colony.
"By the way, how did you deal with the affairs of Wildfire Town at that time?"
It sounds like this Liang Taibai seems to know something about the incident last semester, and Xiao Lin, as the person concerned, naturally couldn't help but ask more questions.
Liang Taibai sucked two more roses, then leaned back on the sofa, and muttered for a long time before he said a little vaguely: "That matter involves many aspects, and it is very serious, the academy has reported this matter to the Supreme Council, you must know that it is not a last resort, it is not easy to report everything there, in short, this matter is not something you and I can speculate casually."
