Chapter 1676: The Emperor's Troubles
"Get out! Those who try to steal my power, I order you to get out!"
Herses' voice kept echoing in the space, his voice was like thunder, and it made Twilight's ears ring. Twilight gritted her teeth, pulled out the short sword and inserted it into her chest, freeing the big sword, Dark Fire. As soon as the dark fire sword appeared, Twilight's toes pointed in the void, and the whole person rushed towards the giant dragon in the sea of flames.
"Exceeding one's abilities!" Herses's remaining consciousness roared, his voice was full of anger, and the giant dragon made of flames bit at Twilight.
Twilight roared loudly, a point of light lit up on the tip of the great sword, and in an instant, a blazing brilliance surged like flowing water in a fan-like shape, and suddenly a huge wave was set off in the space, and the huge wave formed by the dark flame hit the sky On the head of the dragon. The giant dragon tilted its head from the blow, and flew back involuntarily. The dark fire waves continued to slap on its body, melting the dragon's body. Herses' roar resounded in the space, and the giant dragon fiercely raised its claws and slapped away the waves of fire, and then went upstream. With a long howl, Twilight dragged his sword forward and crashed into the raging dark flames. A moment later, a sword light lit up in the dark flame, and the sword light divided the flames, and a huge wound was cut on the body of the giant dragon, and its figure kept flickering.
Although the dragon was severely injured, it still gave Twilight a tail. The giant tail lashed at Twilight's body, and the robe in front of Twilight split a hole, and a wave of blood spewed out from his mouth.
The heat wave rose in the cave, Twilight's robe sitting on the ground suddenly split, and at the same time, her mouth and nose were bleeding. But she still didn't break the connection with Tinder, and continued to fight desperately with Herses' remaining will in the conscious world. Only by erasing the remaining will of Herses, can Twilight fully receive the power of the flames of the sky. If Allen had known that Herses would have a ray of consciousness left in the tinder, he would have taken action to erase it.
But about Tinder, both Twilight and Mitinas only know a rough idea, but Heerses would leave such a consciousness in Tinder.
And just like that, Twilight stayed in the cave to absorb the power of the spark. The next day, Allen said goodbye and left Gun City. In order to give the imperial capital some time to buffer and prepare, Edward has sent a message in advance, and Allen is not in a hurry to get on the road. Although he still uses the silver eagle to fly through the sky, the speed has obviously slowed down a lot. Originally, at the speed of Silver Eagle, he could reach the imperial capital Oliska in the afternoon.
The news that Allen was on the way was that Julian was having breakfast, and the breakfast was set in his bedroom. Julian, who is now the king of a country, is a little less childish than before, and a little more stable and calm. Dressed in civilian clothes, he sat on a gold-painted chair and shared breakfast with Xinna's concubine.
A guard walked in quickly, and whispered in Julian's ear after saluting. So just after turning eighteen, the young concubine, who was in the age of Doukou, saw Julian's face change. When the silver spoon fell, it was three points heavier than before. A drowsy old man opened his eyes.
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" The young concubine asked curiously: "Those monsters have left the border, and today the Panlong Empire's army will return by sea. Our empire has ushered in peace. Why do you seem a little unhappy? .”
Julian sighed and said: "Some things are not as simple as you think. The monster army left the border, but headed towards the Shadow Principality. God knows what will happen. As for the Panlong Empire, their victory king said To put it nicely, you miss your homeland, so you have to leave or something. That’s all an excuse. The real reason is that they were also seriously injured, and they didn’t have the confidence to eat us, so they chose to leave. I hate that we also hurt the root, Otherwise, how could they make some symbolic compensation and just let the intruders go."
"And now, someone who is more troublesome than these is coming to see me, can I not be bothered?"
The concubine wondered: "Could it be those strong men in the Ten Saints?"
"That's not true, it would be fine if it was just the Ten Saints, but that person
Don't talk, you can eat, I'm busy.
"
"oh."
Julian came to the study, and after a while, Prime Minister Naibert, Marshal Rodke, Black Fox Jomo, and five or six officials entered the study one after another. It was no small matter to be able to be called into the study by Julian at this time. The prime minister and the marshal are no comparison, the black raccoon is famous for being insidious and cunning, and the others also have their own strengths. Julian summoned them, naturally wanting to hear their opinions.
Seeing that everyone has arrived, the young emperor said softly: "I just received the news from the southern border that our Marquis Allen has returned and is leaving for the imperial capital today. What do you think?"
The Prime Minister half-closed his eyes and remained silent. Rodke was notoriously violent, and immediately snorted coldly: "Then it depends on the purpose of our Marquis?"
"There is also Huo Yi's words in the news. Huo Yi pointed out that Marquis Allen's original intention was to send troops to the north to relieve the siege of our imperial capital. But I didn't expect those monsters to withdraw suddenly, and even the Panlong Kingdom's army planned to leave. Return to the homeland by sea. So the Marquis of Allen will only bring a few entourages, not a single soldier." Julian added.
The prime minister said indifferently: "It can be seen from this that Marquis Allen's loyalty to the empire has not changed."
Rodek sneered: "Fart, if he is loyal, why didn't he come earlier, now he retreats, runs, and runs, so he came to show his face. I said, even if he is not a traitor, he is at least a slippery guy .”
Julian raised his hand and said, "I can't blame him for this. The Gun City was besieged earlier, and it was also Marquis Allen who relieved the siege. It must have been the delay in Gun City, so it was delayed until now before leaving for the north. .”
Black Fox was the best at observing words and expressions. He saw that Julian called everyone to meet. Obviously, the arrival of the Southern Marquis made the young emperor a little troubled. Now he excused Allen, obviously not caring about his lateness, so it must be another aspect that troubled Julian.
At that moment, Jomo stepped forward and said: "A long time ago, I also asked people to pay attention to the war in the southern border, and I just learned that this time, Marquis Allen got a group of silver giant eagles from somewhere. These eagles are very powerful. Those monster legions are not inferior. And there is one more thing that is very strange, Princess Shusha who went to the blood king's cemetery, for some reason, acted together with Marquis Allen. This is indeed, a bit weird."
He glanced at Julian and looked down.
Julian's face became ugly. Indeed, Princess Shusha and Allen acted together, which made him very uncomfortable. Shusha was his father's concubine, and he had already opposed her going to the blood king's cemetery in every possible way, but Shusha's tough attitude made him finally compromise. Now that he is even more with Allen, it is inevitable that he will lose the national unity. Julian was even more worried about whether Shusha would do something to offend the late emperor. If so, it would be a big scandal for the royal family.
Now Allen is still bringing her to the imperial capital, which somewhat worries Julian.
