Chapter 128 Neptune Election
"Sea King, who has two large fleets, also needs to worry about competitors?" Suda Tetrus asked.
"If Neptune's body is healthy, it is natural to use it. Unfortunately, Neptune Ferrego Antalion's old injury has relapsed very seriously, and it has almost worn down his body. He doesn't know how many years he has left to live.
According to the rules, he needs to help the son of the governor who helped him run for the position of Sea King to become the new Sea King. However, that guy's reputation among the Keykeepers is far less than Tormo Frega. "
"The brother of Prince Hazan's mother, Marianne Frega?"
"Yes, for Tormo Frega, having his nephew Hassan become the 'real king' of Pentos is a good bargaining chip for him to run for Sea King." The noble young man next to Suda nodded. .
"You know so much. My father never told me these things." Suda laughed sarcastically.
"Because you are not the eldest son, Suda." The young man shook his head at Suda, "You shouldn't worry about this. For us, we are smart people who position themselves correctly and do the work assigned by our fathers. practice."
"That's right," Suda nodded and changed the topic back to the martial arts competition. "I can't wait to see Ambassador Olanto suddenly stand up when he finds out that the water dancer he worked so hard to invite is competing. What expressions are there around us, hahaha!
Hazan, that idiot, he thought we didn't know that he proposed to postpone the competition for a month to wait for the arrival of the water dancer he invited from the Neptune Palace. "
"Hazan is not stupid," the noble young man denied Suda's assessment, "He is just too confident in his mother, and the competition in Braavos for the election of the new Sea King has not yet been made public.
They didn't expect that His Highness Neptune would humiliate them in a mere competition in Pentos. It was normal. But on this issue, the envoy you chose definitely played an indispensable role. His eloquence is really amazing. "
"Really? I also feel that I have found a treasure. In addition to him, there is also" Suda said, pointing to Ander Poole not far away, "and that one. They are a team, one in culture and one in martial arts. They are all talented people."
"Okay, the game begins."
The two stopped talking for a moment and looked towards the center of the arena together.
Ian Raven was not in a hurry to leave, but was trying to hear more news while digesting the conversation between the two people.
The amount of information these two people just said was too explosive.
Many of Ian's previous doubts were answered here.
For example, why does Braavos allow the so-called 'Volantis Party' to exist openly in Pentos.
For example, why is it that Prince Hazan is clearly just the son of the 'mascot' Prince Pentos, but he can override Governor Haukate and become the leader of the 'Braavos Party'.
For example, why Governor Illyrio clearly sides with Braavos, but always refuses to cooperate with Prince Hazan - regarding this, Ian guessed that Governor Illyrio's ally in Braavos is probably the current Sea King A group of people.
After learning about the core conflict of 'the next Sea King election in Braavos', Ian immediately straightened out the logic of the series of games that took place in Pentos City.
At the same time, Ian also obtained some information that was important to him.
One is that there are at least two players in the player force of Ander Poole, one of whom has previously served as an envoy of Suda (force) to the Neptune Palace and successfully persuaded Neptune.
Second, the two water dancers invited from Braavos by Ambassador Olanto of Bravos who were supposed to represent Prince Hazan in the war had fallen to Soda's side due to the intervention of the Sea King. This news... Ambassador Lanto and the others most likely don’t know yet.
If he did not intervene in this matter, then Hazan's side, which suddenly lost two water dancers during the competition, would inevitably fall into an irreversible disadvantage. And in this competition's rule of 'until all one party is killed', such a disadvantage would be almost Already meant Hazan's death.
In other words, if you make good use of this information, this is an opportunity to get a huge favor from Ambassador Olanto and Prince Hazan.
Furthermore, if Prince Hazan's uncle's faction eventually wins the Sea King election in Braavos, he will use this to establish friendship with the future Sea King of Braavos and Prince Pentos.
At the same time, helping Hazan to fight Suda is also of great significance to Ian himself. After all, Ander Poole and his group of players have already embraced Suda Tetrus and his group.
If Ander Poole can be killed through this contest and a heavy blow is given to the entire Volantis party, it will also be of great benefit to Ian in his subsequent efforts to find a way to deal with another player under Suda.
But the problem is that this may conflict with Illyrio's position. After all, according to Ian's guess just now, Illyrio is most likely on the side of the current Sea King.
How about asking Illyrio?
No! Ian quickly dismissed the idea as a plan began to form in his mind.
Tomorrow, I will bring the new NPC I obtained during the second month-end settlement - Yada Mor, the water dancer master of Braavos, to attend Khal Drogo's banquet, and arouse the attention of Ambassador Olanto at the banquet. Notice.
The preparations for the competition are so intense now that an elite water dancer appears in front of Olanto. He will definitely invite Yada More to help Prince Hazan fight.
Faced with the Braavos ambassador's face-to-face request, Illyrio would definitely not be able to stop him verbally, and he would be able to agree to it.
reason? It was for the sake of Governor Illyrio!
As for party strife? What partisanship? I do not know! You never told me.
How could I possibly know, Lord Governor, that your allies in Braavos and Ambassador Oranto are not of the same faction? Why are you hiding this from me when you say you're fine? You might as well give me a look when Ambassador Olanto makes a request!
In short, I agreed to help Ambassador Olanto because of Illyrio's concealment. If Illyrio chooses to forgive, then I will fully participate in the competition.
If he doesn't agree in the end, then think of another way... Anyway, Illyrio must not be offended.
Until the end of the night's games, Ian could not hear any other clues related to the party dispute.
He had heard a lot about the competition itself, most of which was about Suda's proxy warriors. This information might also be helpful to Ian's subsequent plans.
After returning to Illyrio's mansion, Ian immediately called Sir Daeron Grafson and Water Dancer Master Yada Mor to explain tomorrow's plan to them.
The default story is: Yada Mor's identity is Daeron's personal guard. Daeron once saved Yada Mor's life when he was in Braavos. Since then, Yada has sworn to Daeron's allegiance.
