Chapter 198: A show of force
The next morning, the competition was held as usual. This time, only two people from St. Siya Academy came, which made Alfred's anxiety reach its peak.
At the same time, Mrs. Smith's face was particularly ugly today, and Morris was silent between them.
After all, in this kind of situation, whoever speaks first will be embarrassed.
There are many schools competing today. In the morning, Sansia College and Moses Esbil College will compete.
Du Sirui and Oros simply flooded the entire arena, causing their opponents to drown and win the game.
"Shengshiya... The magical power of the children in the academy is huge..." Mrs. Smith said with a difficult smile.
Morris responded awkwardly, "Yeah, this kid is a member of the Sea God's family, so it's normal for him to have a little more water..."
afternoon……
"Oh my god! Saint Siya College actually froze all the students of Phyllis Walkup College in mid-air!!!"
Auditorium: "..."
Is there no one who can control them?! No matter how strong you are, you can’t bully others like this!
The audience was in an uproar. Lilith, not used to drawing her bow, said to them, "Not convinced? Come on?"
Lilith's tone was full of provocation, and Mrs. Smith's face dropped to freezing point.
They didn't have this attitude yesterday. Even though they were so strong, they still fought with moderation.
After the game, he left quietly without caring about the result, but today he looked down on everyone, which made Smith very angry.
Yesterday, she had just sent her clone over, but before she could even get a clear look at Qiangwei, she was killed.
Afterwards, thirteen members of the association were killed!
This is a warning to her! This is her territory!
Alfred was as troubled as she was. Thirteen of the people who had been investigating Sansia had died.
They haven't done anything recently, so there's no reason for them to be at risk of being silenced.
But when he saw Smith's dark face, he knew something and shook his head and sighed. Morris probably only had one guess about their expressions.
I just offended Rose...
What did she do?
Forget it, don't make trouble for yourself...
After winning the game, Lilith and Aretis returned to Inques.
He didn't care at all about whether his teacher was embarrassed or alive.
The tone is Quesi.
"That's all, Qi." Qiangwei said to the guard captain Qi, "We'll strengthen security during this period. We'll keep a close eye on outsiders entering and leaving. They can also join you on night patrols."
Rose pointed at a group of people sitting in the lounge, knowing that they had been very busy lately, but they had been idle most of the time.
After all, Funa and Butler Qiao really didn't dare to leave the trivial matters to them, otherwise the group of people below would not have time to eat.
Captain Qi was puzzled by Qiangwei's strengthened patrol management, and after thinking it over, he asked.
"Has something happened, Your Highness?" He was extremely nervous after saying this.
"You know I'm going to hold a banquet, right?" Qiangwei sneered. "Recently, there's a lot of mermaids in Saint Siya City. A lot of people, both with and without status, are coming in."
"I don't want some low-profile industries to flourish. I don't want chaos in Saint Siya City."
Qiangwei emphasized, "We are just spreading rumors and are poor beggars. When a bunch of nobles come and see us, will our reputation still be worth it?"
"So...what do we do with those red-haired people who just came into the city?"
Qi had never thought of this level. Is this how the excellent superiors think of the plane?
He was thinking about whether the red-haired man outside would directly refuse them entry, but he didn't know if it was his illusion.
If he did that, Qiangwei would punish him to death.
So you must ask for instructions.
Qiangwei shook the pen in her hand up and down, thinking that Lilith and the others would be back soon.
"We'll accept everyone in the same way. We'll give everyone a badge. Those without jobs and without relatives or friends will all be sent to Yinques."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and wrote, "Go find Charlotte and tell him to pick out some strong men from this crowd and train them to patrol with you. I have other arrangements for the women."
"Yes."
"Also, call the city lord and Mr. Laplante over and tell them I have something to discuss with them."
"Yes." Captain Qi left immediately after receiving the order.
After giving Captain Qi her instructions, Qiangwei looked at the others, and Lilith and the other two just happened to come back.
Everyone except Jupiter and Carol was present. Rose looked at the three girls and said, "Lilith, Dusri, Aretis, the three of you will go with Qi to check if the women and children have any diseases."
"Prepare clean clothes and food. Rasven, you three will select men to serve as the labor force for the expansion of Saint Siya."
"Expansion?" Li Rang was puzzled. The city of Saint Siya was already large enough to accommodate many people.
No more than that, the population would be around 20,000 to 30,000. If it is expanded, it will no longer be called a city.
"You don't have to worry about that. A notice will be issued tomorrow. You just need to take turns patrolling and do what I say." Qiangwei said with a serious expression.
Maybe she has been too nice to them recently, asking all kinds of questions, which makes Qiangwei a little annoyed.
However, she still explained the current situation: "Sansia is the only city-state with free entry and exit. A large number of refugees will pour in. These problems will have to be solved sooner or later."
"do you understand?"
Noticing that Qiangwei was in a bad mood, Lirang and the others immediately responded, "Yes."
No more questions, just get to work.
"Alas...I have to be busy again during this period."
Qiangwei thought that hosting a banquet would be so easy, but she didn't expect that there would be many small problems involved.
If it is foggy, the officials below will take the initiative to deal with the minor matters.
But this is the Western world, and there is no concept of serving the people here.
It's not impossible that a lot of rich people will be robbed and a lot of civilians will be killed...
"Okay, stop complaining. It's not easy to be in a superior position." Tai Chi Anyi said with concern.
"It's not easy being the superior here..."
Baota munched on some melon seeds and said seriously, "Come on, different ideologies make the road difficult. Come on!"
"..."
Inside the Holy See of Saint Siya City.
"Madam has taken action?"
"Yes."
"Madam, do you know that you have caused trouble?"
"Yes."
"Then why does the Holy See..."
"That's none of my business. She did it herself." Mrs. Smith said indifferently while drinking her tea.
Alfred looked at her indifferently and said, "If it weren't for Madam provoking her, she wouldn't have taken action. You have to understand that the relationship between the Vatican and her has always been tense."
"So?" Smith scoffed and challenged, "You're frightened by a little girl? Don't you have a god behind you?"
Alfred ignored her and just kept warning, "The Vatican will withdraw from Sanctuary. She's already angry, and there's no guarantee I'll be able to leave next time."
Smith drank his tea slowly. "Is she really that scary? Your Highness, what you said is..."
"Madam, you are too kind. We didn't mean to do this, but you just broke the paper that kept our relationship balanced."
Alfred's tone was full of regret. He didn't expect that the first city they lost would be Saint Siya City.
"No! What's so strong about her?" Smith was angered by Alfred's indifferent attitude.
What on earth does Rose have that could make the Holy See withdraw from Sansia?
Alfred, this taciturn guy, doesn't care about anything. He won't say anything, as if he has lost interest in everything.
Facing Smith's anger, Alfred said calmly, "Thirteen of you died while secretly investigating Sansia, right?"
