Chapter 380 The Ming and Russian United Empire
Chapter 380 Ming-Russia United Empire (x)
The reason why Catherine appeared here was naturally because of Petrovna's news.
As her daughter's life was at stake, she rushed to Ming Dynasty as soon as possible. The distance between Tsarist Russia and Ming Dynasty was obviously not far for a hall-level card maker.
The Russian empress landed in front of Ye Zhou's body, looked at the Yongguang who would never wake up, and said without turning her head: "Today is Ye Qing's funeral. You have gone too far."
She did not mention anything related to winning or losing again, so as to avoid further provocation.
After hearing Ekaterina's words, Motian couldn't help but sneered: "Ekaterina, are you qualified to control me?"
"Do you really think that you can be my opponent just because you have broken through to the Palace Level?"
As he finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene gradually became tense.
The envoys from various countries did not expect that even the arrival of Her Majesty the Russian Empress could not make Motian temporarily surrender.
At this time, Ekaterina, who was wearing gorgeous clothes, slowly turned around and said in a cold tone: "In this case, how about we just have a simple sparring match?"
As the Queen spoke, she summoned her own card, which showed a one-eyed man holding a spear, with two crows standing on his shoulders and riding an eight-legged divine horse.
Such a striking appearance naturally made everyone present recognize the identity of this card at the first time.
[Eternal King Odin], the father of all gods in Norse mythology, the master of the feast in Valhalla, and the god above all gods in Asgard.
Even though the God King did not reveal any aura at this moment, everyone present still felt a chill in their hearts.
This is the threat from Gungnir, the sure-hit gun.
After seeing Odin, Motian couldn't help showing a little fear on his face. He narrowed his eyes slightly: "Tsk"
"I didn't expect you to be so quick."
The intelligence system of the Mughal Empire must have relevant information about other countries' top-level card makers, and Catherine's label is "pseudo-top-level".
As far as they know, when the Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia joined forces to wipe out the demon army not long ago, the other side had not yet produced the palace-level cards.
That's why Motian spoke to Ekaterina in that tone just now.
Unfortunately, what the Mughal Empire’s intelligence system did not know was that after the demon army was defeated, the Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia had completed the exchange of relevant top-level materials.
This was something that both parties had agreed upon before the war. Although Fang Wenlong's reply at that time was to leave it to Ye Zhou to decide, it was obvious that this matter would ultimately have only one outcome: success.
It was for this reason that Ekaterina successfully created her first Hall of Fame card.
The previous conversation between Russell and Petrovna was intended to further promote this cooperation.
After all, the benefits of cooperation are visible to the naked eye.
The scene returns to Ye Zhou's funeral.
After a long silence, Motian couldn't help curling his lips, then looked at Russell: "You win."
"Boy."
As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this powerful man with a peculiar personality leave, everyone present felt relieved, including Ekaterina.
If possible, she would like to avoid fighting with the other party.
"Thank you for your help, Your Majesty. We in the Ming Dynasty will always remember this friendship."
At this time, Bai Yueming walked to Ekaterina's side with a hunched back and thanked her out loud.
Hearing this, the Queen shook her head slightly and said calmly: "This is only for the empire."
This is the truth.
The reason why she rushed to Daming as soon as possible was not only because she was worried about Petrovna's safety, but also to mediate the conflict between Daming and Motian.
After all, if the two sides really came to blows, Tsarist Russia, which was not far away from the Ming Dynasty, would obviously be affected.
As for Russell
Catherine didn't care about his life or death. Even if he really died, the empress would only sigh that the empire's investment was wasted.
That's it.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Russell beside Bai Yueming calmly, and her eyes flickered.
To be honest, before arriving at Daming, Ekaterina didn't think Russell could last a minute under Motian's hands. You know, master level is master level, and hall level is hall level.
Even though the young man had a glorious record of successfully expelling a palace-level demon, that could not be considered a head-on confrontation.
And to take a step back, even if Russell really managed to hold on for a minute, he should have been in a very bad condition, and should not have been as intact as he is now.
Moreover, judging from Motian's performance just now, this Mughal master card maker was obviously defeated.
After all, based on the intelligence about Motian from the Tsarist Russia, Ekaterina believed that she had a very accurate grasp of Motian's character.
Thinking about it this way, the strength of the young man in front of him is stronger than estimated in the imperial intelligence.
Of course, considering that there is no live footage of the fight between Russell and Ferris, no one knows what exactly happened at the time, and can only speculate based on the status of both parties afterwards.
The farce came to an end, but Ye Zhou's funeral naturally had to continue.
"Since Your Majesty is here, let's witness the end of Ye Palace together."
Catherine had no objection to Ming Dynasty's arrangement. She nodded slightly in response and walked over to Petrovna.
"Mother."
The girl was about to call her mother in a low voice when she was interrupted.
Ekaterina shook her head slightly, signaling Petrovna to keep quiet.
The Queen is not Motian, and she still has basic courtesy towards Ye Zhou, who is of the same level as herself.
At this time, the live broadcast to the entire Ming Dynasty was started again.
The ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty were all confused as they watched Russell closing Ye Zhou's coffin on TV.
Most people didn’t know what had just happened, and some even thought that there might be a problem with the live broadcast line that caused the black screen.
But a small number of people noticed the difference in the picture at this moment.
Due to Motian's strength and status, it would certainly be impossible for Daming to put him at the back when arranging positions.
Not to mention the rear, Motian stood directly in front of the envoys from various countries.
Ahead of him were only four Ming Dynasty master card makers, led by Russell.
But now, such a striking person has disappeared from the TV screen.
In her place was a graceful and elegant foreign woman.
After seeing the woman, a small number of people who recognized her identity were immediately surprised: "Her Majesty the Empress of Tsarist Russia?!"
According to common sense, if a strong person of Ekaterina's status was willing to attend Ye Zhou's funeral, it would undoubtedly be very conspicuous.
But the people watching the live broadcast can be sure that the other party was not there just now.
There is no doubt that something unknown must have happened at the scene during those few minutes of black screen.
And it is definitely something that is not good for the Ming Dynasty.
Otherwise, the live broadcast would not have been interrupted.
For a moment, those who discovered the trick felt as if their hearts were being scratched by a thousand claws, and they felt itchy and unbearable.
They can't wait to know what happens on the scene.
However, as the crimson coffin that buried Ye Zhou gradually sank into the ground, the live broadcast was interrupted.
The funeral is over.
Ye Zhou, the top-notch card maker who dedicated everything to the Ming Dynasty, finally ended his life.
But death is not the end, forgetting is.
From now on, Ye Zhou will live forever in the official records of the Ming Dynasty and the memory of the people. Perhaps he has also gained eternal life on another level.
Good night. Have a sweet dream.
Some time has passed since Ye Zhou's funeral.
During this period of time, the people of Daming also knew the reason why the live broadcast of the funeral was black.
According to the association’s notification, the black screen was indeed caused by a line problem.
If anyone believes it.
Since most people do not believe this extremely perfunctory announcement, it provides a breeding ground for rumors.
In some small groups, real "inside information" is circulating.
"My cousin was the staff member in charge of the live broadcast at that time. He said that the reason why the screen went black that day was because those Indians from Mughal were causing trouble, so they had to cut off the live broadcast."
“? I told you it wasn’t that simple, and those Indians did disappear after the live broadcast was resumed. I believe you.”
"Of course. I'm going to tell you a top-secret piece of information. Don't tell anyone."
"You know what our personalities are? Tell us now."
"Master Luo and Mogul's hall-level card maker [Golden Embryo] Motian have fought!"
After seeing the news, people in the small group raised question marks to express their shock.
"?"
"? Is this true or not? But I remember that Master Luo's clothes were not messed up after the live broadcast was restored, right?"
"Hehe, we have to mention the fight between Master Luo and Na Motian. It is said that there were lightning and thunder at that time, and the two fought until the avenue was wiped out. The result is obvious. The corner of Master Luo's clothes was slightly dirty, and Na Motian was defeated and retreated."
". Motian is a top-level person, right? Is your information reliable?"
"Okay, I admit that there are some artistic processing in this, but the competition is real. You can judge the specific results by yourselves. Remember not to spread it."
"understood."
"1"
As the avatars turned gray one by one, the small group suddenly became quiet.
Then that day, rumors about the competition between Russell and Ferris began to spread on the Internet.
This is of course the association fueling the situation, otherwise how could such accurate "inside information" be leaked.
In order to avoid some trouble, the association was vague about the final result of the competition, which led to all kinds of rumors on the Internet.
But the most basic consensus is that Russell did not lose in this competition.
This is one of the purposes of the association.
Thanks to this incident, the sad atmosphere brought about by Ye Zhou's death was slightly diluted, and was replaced by a discussion about the cards Russell held.
After all, his cards are absurdly strong for a custom card.
However, Russell, the real person involved, is not in the mood to care about what is happening on the Internet.
Ever since Ye Zhou's funeral, he has been busy.
The first is the matter of Goryeo's surrender.
Even though the Ming Dynasty had accepted submission from many vassal states over the years, this was still a big deal.
Population, secrets, resources.
These are the benefits that can be obtained after expanding territory.
Of course, it is unrealistic to just enjoy the benefits. After accepting Goryeo's submission, the Ming Dynasty naturally had to deal with the problem of demons in their territory.
Not in their territory, but in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
In addition to Goryeo, there is also the small country that Russell discovered when he was chasing Hu Jiu.
The situation in that place is much more complicated than that in Goryeo. After all, the latter has only been under the control of the demons for a short time, and the people in the country generally have a sense of resistance.
And the former.
After being raised by the demons led by Fox Jiu for hundreds of years, the people in that land have completely lost their awareness of their own human identity.
Correcting this problem will obviously take more than a generation.
Thinking of this, Russell couldn't help but pinch his eyebrows with a headache: "Tsk"
"It's really troublesome."
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with the small country, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.
dong dong dong-
"Enter."
The antique wooden door was pushed open, and a blonde girl came into Russell's sight.
"Your Highness?" Russell was stunned when he saw the person coming. "Why are you here?"
The girl was naturally Petrovna.
Facing Russell's question, she giggled and said, "Of course I came to say goodbye."
"The matter between the Empire and Ming has been discussed. I will definitely return to the Empire."
At this point Petrovna paused.
"Or"
"Luo Qing, are you reluctant to leave me?"
As the crown prince of Tsarist Russia, Petrovna certainly could not stay in Ming Dynasty forever.
The reason why I was able to stay so long this time was because of what happened at Ye Zhou’s funeral.
At this time, Russell subconsciously ignored the second half of the girl's words and asked, "Has the cooperation been finalized?"
Hearing this, Petrovna puffed up her cheeks like a hamster: "Mr. Luo!"
After expressing her dissatisfaction for a while, she hummed and said, "With your status, Luo Qing, the specific details will probably be known soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Russell's communication device vibrated.
The young man took a glance and found that they were the details of the cooperation between Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia.
But now is not the time to look at this kind of thing.
After looking at Russell a few more times, Petrovna turned and walked out the door.
But when she reached the door, she suddenly stopped.
The girl turned her head slightly and said softly, "I'm leaving, Luo Qing."
"Ah."
Seeing that Luo Su still had no reaction, Petrovna could not help but turn around and said helplessly: "Mr. Luo, please give me some reaction."
Not expecting a response from Russell, she showed a bright smile on her face: "Don't miss me, Luo Qing."
After saying this, the blonde girl lifted her skirt, turned around and ran away.
Seeing this, Russell couldn't help but pull the corner of his mouth.
"It's as if we'll never see each other again."
To be honest, given the distance between Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia, it wouldn't take Russell much time to meet Petrovna if he really wanted to.
He shook his head slightly, suppressed his complicated emotions, and then focused his attention on the communication device beside him.
After the battle with Ferris, Russell realized that he was still a huge gap from the top of the world.
Now that the Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia have reached a cooperation agreement, it means that the material libraries of both sides have been shared.
This is undoubtedly good news for Russell.
He was able to create new master cards.
