Chapter 567: Chapter 447, Parliamentary History (Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Recommendations.)_2
“No city lord will agree to this proposal unless the Senate gives them some secret promise. No one will agree to divide the command of the troops in their hands, at least I won’t agree.” Rebecca directly clarified her stance.
The parliament proposing this draft means to gradually control the command of the troops in each city.
All city lords understand this naturally and naturally will not agree.
Of course, the energy of the Senate is still huge, even though this draft cannot be passed, it cannot be directly rejected either. So it is being delayed day by day.
Every year it is brought up, every year it’s delayed for various reasons.
“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Fang Hao nodded, indicating he understood.
Fang Hao didn’t quite understand these issues, nor could he provide any suggestions.
As long as Rebecca confirmed she would not hand over command of the troops, that’s good enough.
He would not allow the troops of the subsidiary cities to be controlled by others.
…
The two chatted, and time passed bit by bit.
At 10 o’clock in the evening, Rebecca still had no plans to leave.
Although the two publicly claimed to be husband and wife, they hadn’t progressed to the stage of living together yet.
“Are you planning to stay?” Fang Hao asked directly.
Rebecca’s face turned slightly red and said, “I want to stay a little longer at least. Hubert is quite curious about our relationship.”
Fang Hao understood Rebecca’s meaning,
It was all about playing the long game.
Hubert had expressed curiosity about Fang Hao’s identity.
Even if the identity Fang Hao was posing as was just a puppet city lord,
their status as husband and wife must not be detected by others.
Just as Rebecca said, at least they should stay a little longer until late at night before Rebecca goes back.
“What, you’re afraid I’ll eat you?” Rebecca looked at Fang Hao’s silence and counter-queried.
“You have such a good offer?”
Tsk!
Rebecca was amused and laughed.
“You should be so lucky.” Then she continued, “It’s annoying, I originally wanted to have a relaxing bath, but now I have to play this pretense with you.”
Speaking of which, she stretched lazily, her curves magnified.
Fang Hao glanced critically.
He also said, “Since you are staying, do you want to go to my main city to see?”
Rebecca’s eyes lit up, curiously asking, “How do we get there?”
“I naturally have a way, but how’s your heart condition? Are you afraid of corpses? Don’t carry any psychological burdens afterward.” Fang Hao asked.
“Do you think I would be scared of these things?” Rebecca said with disdain.
After receiving Rebecca’s firm answer,
Fang Hao called Demitrija and Aseti, told them he was taking Rebecca back to the main city and they didn’t need to worry.
Then, he directly released the Demon Doll.
When two identical Fang Hao’s were standing in the same room,
Rebecca rose from the seat in shock, her mouth gaping wide, continuously looking at the two identical men.
“You, you… twins.” After stuttering for a while, Rebecca came to a conclusion.
“Twins my ass! It’s a substitute. Follow me in later, don’t be afraid. It’s just an ordinary transmission.” Fang Hao explained.
The Demon Doll waved its hand, directly in front of them, forming a magic light screen.
“You go in first.”
“Go in?” Rebecca kept her eyes wide open, she had never seen a transmission light screen before.
“Hurry up, time is limited.” Fang Hao gave her a tug, pushing her into the light screen in the process.
Rebecca’s figure disappeared and Fang Hao also walked in before the light screen disappeared.
…
Rebecca felt the world spinning.
When she opened her eyes again, she had arrived in an unfamiliar place.
Clean ground, both sides of the street were lit up by Nightstone street lights, illuminating the entire city.
Is this Fang Hao’s city?
Using Nightstone as street lights?
Is he so rich that he doesn’t know where to spend his money?
Thud, thud, thud!
The sound of orderly footsteps came from one side. Rebecca turned her head and her heart tightened instantly.
She saw a team of skeleton soldiers with swords and shields, walking past her in orderly steps.
Rebecca turned around and was about to run,
But then she saw several bunny girls, holding wooden basins and towels, walking past the skeleton soldiers.
One of them, even propped up a skeleton, shaking off the sand in his shoe.
What… is happening?
Just as Rebecca incredulously watched the ongoing situation, Fang Hao emerged from the light curtain behind her.
Seeing the dazed Rebecca squatting on the ground, he said: “Welcome, what are you doing squatting on the ground?”
Rebecca quickly stood up from the ground.
At this moment, the bunny maids not far away also noticed Fang Hao.
They immediately ran over, “Good evening, Master.”
“Hmm, you shouldn’t run around in the middle of the night. You might get cold.” Fang Hao spoke to the maids.
The maids giggled, took a careful look at Rebecca, and started whispering amongst themselves as they slowly walked towards their residence.
And two of them immediately ran towards the lord’s manor, to inform Eira.
After the maids left, Fang Hao said to Rebecca, “Let’s go, I will show you around my territory.”
“Oh, okay.”
Fang Hao led Rebecca on a tour around his territory.
Thought patrol skeleton would be horrifying enough, but when Rebecca followed Fang Hao onto the city wall and saw the endless undead army outside the city, she truly understood what terror was.
Her legs began to tremble, and she started to lose her balance.
Fang Hao steadied her and explained, “This is what I wanted to tell you. You know that I am a transmigrator who has many things you might not understand. These are all my soldiers, there’s no danger.”
“Is all this army yours, so many?” Rebecca’s body became a bit stiff.
It was clear that Fang Hao had taken human soldiers with him. So why were there so many undead here?
“Rolana might not have explained it to you clearly. In my territory, there are humans, orcs, undead, dwarves, and trolls living here in peace. I won’t initiate any wars.” Fang Hao seriously introduced his territory to Rebecca.
“There are so many!”
Rebecca’s mind slightly struggled to keep up.
Not only does Fang Hao possess such a large undead army.
There are also many different races living in his territory.
Those races that were once hostile are unexpectedly living peacefully in a single territory, accepting the rule of a human.
Even though she knew that Fang Hao was not lying, she still felt a sense of unreality.
“Let’s go, I’ll arrange a place for you to stay. There’s also a hot spring here, didn’t you say you want to take a bath?”
They both came down from the city wall and headed towards the lord’s manor.
…
Upon returning to the manor.
He introduced Rebecca to Eira.
Although it was their first meeting, Eira had heard about Rebecca from Fang Hao before.
So, the two women greeted each other.
They arrived at the backyard.
Fang Hao introduced Rebecca to the effects and functions of the life spring.
After asking Eira to prepare a change of clothes, he left Rebecca alone in the backyard.
Rebecca sat by the pool.
Underneath her black cheongsam, she revealed her silky smooth long legs that were as smooth as a lotus root, kicking up ripples in the pool.
Looking around and seeing that nobody was there, she finally changed into the spare clothes and bathed in the hot spring.
As soon as she got in, she felt as if a gentle spring was wrapping around her body, a gentle energy rushed through her limbs, driving away the feeling of fatigue.
After all was prepared for Rebecca, Fang Hao went back to his room to rest.
The next morning, after breakfast.
He escorted Rebecca back to Lyss City.
…
In the following days.
Life was as ordinary as before.
Lyss City was gradually returning to normal as time passed.
Hubert and others stayed in the city for three days.
Groot, who was knocked unconscious by Aseti’s kick, was almost recovered.
After venting his anger in his room, he decided to leave Lyss City, not wanting to stay there for even a moment longer.
“Lord Hubert, the carriage is ready. We can set off.” A guard stood outside the door and said.
“Okay, noted.” Hubert replied.
Just as he was about to open the door with his things.
The Sound-transmitting Shell in his hand suddenly made a noise indicating a message.
Hubert took out the shell from the package and put it to his ear.
As the sound came from the shell, Hubert’s face gradually turned serious, and his eyebrows furrowed.
He pushed open the door and told the guard, “Let’s go to the Temple.”
