Zongman: Picked up Medea at the beginning
Page 205
To be honest, even though she had become the king of Camelot, Queen Morgan still felt that it was a little unreal.
She thought that her goal of becoming a king had died long ago, but when she actually sat in this position, she discovered that her pursuit of the throne had never disappeared, and had not even weakened.
But Morgan is not someone who doesn’t know himself.
So on the second day after she became king, she simply stabilized the nobles and knights, and then called Roland and the others over.
Roland, Medea, Merry, Semiramis, Guinevere (Altoria), and Mordred.
In the eyes of other knights and nobles, Morgan’s call for these people was reasonable.
Because at this point, anyone can see that these guys who have never been seen before and who seem to have appeared suddenly are the team secretly trained by their own queen.
But in fact, when Morgan looked at these people, she was extremely nervous.
after all…
She didn’t train any team!
This group of people just appeared out of nowhere!
“Tell me, what is your purpose in making me king?”
Morgan looked around and finally stopped his gaze on Roland, the leader.
“I definitely have a purpose, but it will have little impact on you and Camelot. You can think of us as a group of speculators who want to climb up the social ladder. Our request… I hope you can make Guinevere and Mordred your guards, and make Merry and Semiramis your close ministers. In return, Medea and I will help you solve some problems.”
Morgan frowned when he heard Roland’s words.
If you say she is willing, then she definitely is not willing.
Because according to Roland’s arrangement, there would be very few people around her.
She was almost sidelined!
But she’s not stupid.
So she didn’t refute Roland, but just nodded silently.
After all, she had refuted it before, but Roland also said at that time that he was just explaining his purpose, and she had no right to refuse!
Seeing Morgan like this, Roland smiled.
“Okay, don’t be so sad. If we really have some ulterior motive, you can’t stop us. So since you can’t resist, why not enjoy the present moment?”
“Besides, it should be a good thing for you that we are by your side.”
“After all, you who originally lost the qualifications to be king, now sit on the throne, and the reason why Merlin and your father arranged for you to leave was to lead the Saxons to occupy most of Britain. Medea and I will help you deal with it.”
“At least for now, it’s all good news, isn’t it?”
Hearing Roland’s words, Morgan was silent for a while, then looked at Roland.
“You’re going to fight the white dragon?”
“Correct.”
Morgan stared at Roland for a while, but couldn’t see anything.
But her mind had already started to think about various problems here.
If Roland can really deal with the white dragon, then it will at least be a good thing for Camelot now.
Although this might make Roland and his men another kind of white dragon in disguise, towering over Camelot.
But the other white dragon, King Vortigern, is ready to completely destroy Camelot!
Compared to it, Roland and the others do look handsome.
Moreover, just as Roland said—even if she was dissatisfied, she had no way to resist.
So she could only force a smile and nodded in agreement with Roland’s decision.
She agreed, and Artoria and Mordred became her personal guards. Merry and Semiramis were also promoted by her and became nobles of Camelot. They were also the favorites of the new king, and for a while they were the most popular in the high-level circles of Camelot.
Roland and Medea also left Camelot to find the white dragon.
Everything was going according to Roland’s plan.
Morgan was also preparing for his own affairs.
“Fortunately, Guinevere, Mordred, Melissa, and Semiramis are all women… Otherwise, given my current situation, I have no one of my own, and I’m afraid one of these people would visit my bedroom at night.”
At night, Morgan lay in the king’s bedroom with a frown on his face.
“But I really don’t have much ability to resist now, so it’s best not to resist them… But the fact that there’s no one of my own around me is really disturbing.”
Thinking this way, Morgan went through the nobles and knights of Camelot in his mind, and finally chose one person with a complicated expression.
This was someone she could definitely trust.
There is no problem with the other party’s ability.
The only thing that made Morgan feel a little complicated was the other party’s identity.
Because she was the chosen king that Merlin and his father had wanted to promote, his sister – Altria… Pendragon…
……
245. The most advanced plan
Merlin felt that there was something wrong with these people who suddenly appeared!
Because when he was planning things in Britain before, he had used his clairvoyance to see the situation of the entire British Isles, but he had never seen these people headed by Roland…
Guinevere, Mordred…these two looked like they were from Britain. Maybe he had overlooked them.
That Meili…
She looks like him, is a master of illusion, and has a fun-loving style…
Merlin suspected that this guy might be a nymph from the lake!
Because who else but the Lady of the Lake would do this to herself?
If you think about it this way, Semiramis and Medea actually look like the Ladies of the Lake…
Two female knights, three lake fairies… where did the leader Roland come from?
Merlin could see that both the female knight and the fairy in the lake had great faith in Roland.
In this case…
If Roland’s status were elevated a little bit.
He can’t be… a god, right?
Although the Age of Gods should have passed, its remnants still exist on the British Isles.
Merlin, who has clairvoyance, has seen the situation in other regions. In comparison, the existence of Britain is simply a miracle.
And if such miracles exist, then in such a place of miracles, there is a real God left… isn’t it possible?
Merlin couldn’t sit still when he thought of this.
“No, I want to go find the Lady of the Lake!”
Although he knew that most of the fairies in the lake did not welcome him, he still had some friendship with a few of them.
Although this small group would not welcome him, it would be no problem for him to approach them shamelessly and try to get some information from them.
So he wanted to ask about the background of these guys who supported Morgan.
At the same time, if possible, now that Morgan has become king, he wants to get some prophecies from the Fairy of the Lake about Camelot, which respects Morgan as king!
With this thought in mind, Merlin simply explained what happened in Camelot and left Camelot Castle.
…
“Wang, you are looking for me?”
Altria was summoned by Morgan alone.
In response, Altria did not show any disrespect to the princess. Instead, she treated her like a knight’s squire. Her attitude made Morgan laugh slowly.
“Altria, you don’t need to pretend like this in front of me. I know everything about you. We are a family. If you don’t mind, just call me Sister Wang.”
Altria raised her head and looked towards Morgan.
Her natural intuition could help her discern many things, so when she realized that Morgan’s smile and kindness towards her were very real, she blinked and nodded seriously.
“I understand… Sister Wang.”
The name was changed, but Altria actually did not do anything else that crossed the line.
Morgan was very satisfied with her situation.
Now that he has become the king of Camelot, if Altria does not compete with him for the throne, then even Morgan will have to admit that his sister is a true knight.
“Altria, you know that I just became king, so I don’t have many confidants. We are a family, and I trust you more than others. So, are you willing to be my personal guard, my knight?”
As Morgan said this, she grasped the hilt of the Sword in the Stone with both hands and inserted the Sword in the Stone in front of herself.
When Altria saw Morgan like this, she half-knelt on the ground and made a proper knight’s salute.
“It’s my pleasure.”
Seeing that Altria agreed without hesitation, Morgan smiled and walked forward to help Altria up.
Morgan would not tell Altria in detail about what happened to Roland and the others.
Because Morgan knew Altria not on the first day, but after Merlin and his father used her to deny him, Morgan secretly got to know and observe her.
So Morgan knew what kind of person Altria was.
Although she has a very keen intuition, which prevents her from being easily deceived.
But fighting for power and profit… this is indeed not something she should do.
So after thinking about it, Morgan did not assign any tasks to Altria, but just asked her to get familiar with the work of the personal guard first.
During this process, Morgan called Guinevere, who was also a personal guard, and asked this female knight who looked somewhat similar to their family to take care of Altria.
“Altria has a special intuition. If there is really something wrong between Guinevere and Mordred, it will be difficult to hide it from her intuition… and her upright character will also make her never let things go.”
“This arrangement is still a bit excessive, but if we just leave Altria here, then at least we can test these guys’ plans, right?”
Morgan narrowed his eyes slightly, then let out a long breath.
“That’s it for now. After all, they helped me get the throne. If it’s just some moderate demands, it’s fine to agree to them… But if it’s a condition that I really can’t accept, then I will find a way to resist.”
Morgan muttered this as a smile slowly spread across his face.
But just when she thought there was nothing wrong with her arrangement, she inexplicably remembered what Roland said when he brought her to Camelot.
You have no right to refuse
Morgan suddenly thought of this sentence and felt as if a pair of eyes were staring at him, as if a big hand was above him, holding him with a silk thread, constantly controlling his actions…
Could it be true that the other party didn’t know about her small test?
If they knew about it but didn’t stop me, then…it’s impossible that everything I do now is within their expectations, and they deliberately led things to this point, right?
Morgan felt a chill down his spine just thinking about this possibility, and he shook his head repeatedly to deny it.
“I must have scared myself. How could something like that happen? If it were true, it would be too scary. It’s impossible. Absolutely impossible!”
…
“There is a saying that goes, the best strategy is to predict the future.”
Roland and Medea walked side by side on the open field path, feeling the wind and looking at the visual impact of the incomparable blue sky and the sea of grass on the ground that was blown by the wind.
As they were close to each other, Roland’s hand and Medea’s hand were clasped together with their fingers intertwined.
Roland was wearing simple casual clothes, while Medea was draped in a thin white veil, letting her scattered lavender hair flutter in the wind.
They looked like a couple out for fun, not like a punitive team going to deal with the white dragon.
“As for the future of Britain and Camelot, we already have a general idea of it, and have even considered a lot of the variables involved. So in this case, we just need to put the corresponding people in the corresponding positions from the beginning, and the whole thing will naturally develop in the direction we expect.”
“Maybe there are some variables.”
“But as long as the general direction and results are what we want, that’s enough.”
“That’s all I have arranged for Altria’s treatment.”
