Doomsday Code

Chapter 178: Playback

"That's nothing. Since he has become a lord, he must bear the responsibilities of a lord. He must not bring shame upon the dignity of our royal family."

Fipsa did not show any complacency, but said these words very seriously.

Merlin's fat face was also full of smiles as he said:

"Your Highness is still too strict with Your Highness Huidun. Sometimes you should praise someone when he deserves it."

"Your Highness, I have something else to take care of, so I'll take my leave now."

Merlin took off his hat, saluted to Phipsa, and left with his men.

Feipusa looked at Merlin's back as he left, and at this moment she was thinking about what he had just said.

Looking back, since Huidun was born, the education that she and Moss XIII instilled in Huidun was biased towards frustration.

Although this is to make Huidun grow up faster so that he can know the cruel reality brought to him by his life experience sooner.

But in the end, this family relationship was somewhat damaged.

Inside the palace hall, Moss XIII leaned on the throne with one hand.

Today is the meeting of the Executive Council. Although he, as the king, does not need to attend the meeting in person, he still has to wait in this hall for the minutes of the meeting submitted by Prime Minister Holmes.

Especially this time, the beast tide that caused disaster in the western border was such a major incident. Prime Minister Holmes had no power to deal with it, and it had to be handed over to the king to handle.

Holmes walked into the empty and majestic hall with the meeting minutes. The echo of his leather boots on the floor echoed throughout the hall.

Moss XIII raised his hand, and a soldier walked out from behind his throne.

The soldier came in front of Holmes and looked at him with his eyes without any emotion.

Then he took the minutes of the meeting from Holmes's hand, came to Moss XIII and presented them.

At this moment, Moss XIII swept away his previous decadence, picked up the meeting minutes and began to read them carefully.

And Holmes below lowered his head and listened to the teachings of Moss XIII at any time.

The topic of this meeting was very simple, which was the beast tide that occurred in the western region. The only thing that surprised Moss XIII was Emile's matter.

"Homu Yisi, how come the elf Emil was kidnapped and sold as a slave? Are the people of my Moss Kingdom so lawless?

I only give you ten days, you must give me an answer, otherwise you should move as prime minister."

And all of what Moss XIII said was within Holmes's expectations.

He knew very well the temper of the king he served. He absolutely did not want any major stain to appear during his reign, and the case of Emile being trafficked was a stain.

So Holmes, who had foresight, gave the Minister of Criminal Affairs a task directly at the meeting, and the time limit was only five days.

Holmes believed that the Criminal Department would be able to give him and His Majesty the King a satisfactory answer within these five days.

But now, hearing the threatening words of Moss XIII, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

After explaining this sudden incident, Moss XIII turned his attention to the theme of today's meeting, the beast tide.

As he read through the minutes, his fingers drummed on the armrests of the throne.

And Holmes below was bending over, ready to listen to his orders at any time.

After reading Holmes's speech in the meeting minutes, Moss XIII was very clear that Holmes was promoting Tai Chi.

However, Moss XIII did not blame Homeis for this, because at least now the old dog still knew who his master was.

Of course, Thames XIII did not need a useless person who only knew how to be loyal to be his prime minister.

He was very satisfied with the order that Holmes gave to carry out disaster relief first.

He did a very good job of not getting involved in political struggles while protecting himself and his reputation.

But no matter how satisfied you are, you still have to criticize what needs to be criticized.

"Homu Yisi, you know you are the prime minister, can't you see the point of dispute between the two parties here?

If you are too old and blind to see this, then I don't think it is necessary for you to be the prime minister. I don't need a prime minister with dim eyesight."

At this moment, Holmes was only thinking "MMP" in his heart. How come he didn't know the purpose of Moss XIII?

But to be honest, there was nothing wrong with Moss XIII's reprimand. As the prime minister, how could he not see the intentions of both parties?

However, as prime minister he had to follow the king's steps, so in the end he could only practice Tai Chi.

However, Holmes knew that the final order he gave could keep his position as prime minister, but he still had to defend himself.

"Your Majesty, you have wronged me. This disaster caused by the beast tide has affected the entire Western Province. The Consulate does not have absolute decision-making power on such a major event. It is only right to submit all the arguments to Your Majesty and let you make the decision yourself."

“Of course, as the Prime Minister, I should have expressed my views at the meeting, but I thought I had the right to meet with Your Majesty and only needed to report to Your Majesty in person, so I broke the rules and said nothing at the meeting.

This is my dereliction of duty.”

Holmes's defense was also quite eloquent and could be said to be completely in tune with Moss XIII's feelings.

"You old dog, you only know how to pick out my favorite things to say. If that's what you said, then now tell me what you think."

"Also, no sloppy play."

Moss XIII's last sentence was a warning. Although he liked to hear nice words, when it came to matters concerning the country, he also had to hear the truth.

When Holmes heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then he organized his words and said:

"In my opinion, what His Royal Highness Phipsa and Grand Duke Green say is not necessarily correct."

"The correct answer is that we must fight back against the beast tide launched by the Black Dragon King of the Disaster Source Ridge. However, we cannot change the direction of the kingdom's development and devote all our energy to a fruitless war."

“So in my opinion, we need to retaliate against the Black Dragon King and the beasts of the Disaster Ridge, and at the same time, the cost of the revenge needs to be controlled.

Therefore, I think the best way is to mobilize a group of epic strong men to form a revenge team to carry out a clearance operation against the Beast King-level monsters in the entire Huoyuan Ridge.

If the Black Dragon King comes out at this time, we can also take this opportunity to surround and kill him with a large number of experts.

In this way, the kingdom's consumption can be minimized, and killing the Beast King can also obtain the Beast King's corpse as a reward.

At the same time, it can split the internal unity of the Warcraft, so that the Western Territory will not have a beast tide-level threat in the next 10 to 20 years, and it can also deter the Warcraft in other regions. "
