The dining car and carriage No. 9 were isolated by Luke in advance using secret techniques, so the abyss mages who entered the train were separated into three sections by these two carriages. Now that the front section of the train has been cleared, only the monster structures produced by the secret techniques are left.

Not a threat.

After handing the remaining Abyss mages to Sandpaper and Kestrel for training, Luke returned to the dining car.

Agatha smiled reassuringly when she saw Luke come back: "You have been gone for such a long time and the train has slowed down again. I am worried about your safety. Fortunately, Sandpaper and Kestrel just ran over, otherwise I would have taken people to rescue you.

Already.

Is it going well?"

Sinclair looked at Luke, waiting for his answer.

Luke sat down, took a sip of the tea poured by the attendant, and said: "Overall, it went smoothly, but it took some time to weaken the third apostle Belga. I don't have the strength of Qingkong to kill the apostle of the abyss.

You can only use some means.

Now that Belga is dead, we can go back after Sandpaper and Kestrel clear out the remaining Abyss mages."

Agatha was very happy when she heard that the third apostle Belga had died: "The first apostle Victor left the Temple of the Abyss. Now there is only one apostle left in the Temple of the Abyss. The Duke of Celtic will definitely not dare to release him easily.

The work of the Secret Intelligence Service will be much easier in the future.

The pressure on the Northern Army during the reorganization period will also be reduced."

Agatha said the last words to Sinclair, but Sinclair looked full of thoughts.

Luke asked Sinclair: "Are you thinking about how this mutiny will end?"

Luke characterized this incident as a mutiny, which was equivalent to indicating the empire's attitude towards the participants in this incident, which made Sinclair's mood even worse.

"Can you forgive Qiao Xiuer and spare his life..."

Luke looked at Agatha and felt that it would be better for him to be the villain this time.

"I know that you have a deep relationship with Qiao Xiuer. Everything he did was to make you the emperor of the empire. But doing something wrong is doing something wrong. The empire has forgiven him for the crimes he committed before.

But he had no intention of repenting.

This time, he even colluded with the enemies of the empire to assassinate the eldest princess of the empire. You should know him better than we do. If you spare him, he will plan the next assassination."

Sinclair, on the other hand, wanted to protect Joe Soul.

"I understand what you said. But after my mother passed away, Uncle Qiao Xiuer took care of me longer than my father. He can be said to be my other father and the closest person to me in the world.

For him, I can give up my status as a member of the imperial family and no longer have the surname Augustine."

Luke didn't expect that Sinclair would give up his royal status in order to protect Qiao Shuer.

Luke waved the attendants to retreat, then cast a sound barrier, and then said to Sinclair: "Your notice of giving up the right to inherit the throne is just an external declaration we use to stabilize the political situation. Her Royal Highness the Princess is very concerned about the throne.

I really never had any idea that even if the Empress of the Kingdom ascended the throne and became empress for the sake of the empire, the throne would eventually return to the hands of the Augustine family.

You, or your heirs, still have the right to inherit the throne!

If you give up the surname Augustine, you are truly giving up the supreme throne."

Sinclair's attitude was very firm: "All tragedies are caused by that throne. If I even give up the surname Augustine, Uncle George will have no reason to do anything detrimental to the empire. He is a very good person."

A general and a military strategist, even if he no longer commands the army, he is still a valuable asset to the empire."

Sinclair gave up his most precious possessions to protect Qiao Shuer.

Luke felt that he could not do it as a villain. He said to Agatha: "This has become your family matter. What do you think?"

Agatha was also in a dilemma, and she kicked the ball back to Luke: "Sinclair is my nephew, and this identity cannot be changed, but Joshua must also bear the punishment he deserves for his crimes.

Family matters are also state affairs. You are the cabinet minister, so it is up to you to make the decision, and we will hand it over to the cabinet for discussion after we return to the imperial capital."

Sinclair and Agatha looked at Luke to see how he could satisfy both of them.

Luke smiled bitterly and said: "You will really pose a problem for me. I can't make a verdict now, so I'd better wait until I finish interrogating Qiao Shuer before I make a decision.

Your Highness Sinclair, I will respect your relationship with General Joshua, but if I think he has to die, even if I publicly decide to spare his life, I will send someone to assassinate him.

Hope you can understand."

Luke made a major concession, and Sinclair immediately said: "Of course, I understand. But I have a request. I want to interrogate Joel with you."

"Can!"

Both parties compromise and each takes a step back, and it depends on whether Qiao Xiuer can grasp the chance of life that Sinclair gave up everything to fight for him.

At this time, the train stopped completely, and Sandpaper and Kestrel also completed their tasks and returned to the dining car.

The space secret technique was released after losing the person who maintained it. Light lit up in the darkness outside the car window, and then the fortress illuminated by the light appeared.

The imperial agents who were panicking outside immediately rushed into the train. After taking full control of all the carriages, the detective led his subordinate agents to the dining car to apologize to the eldest princess and the Marquis of Falling Star.

Outside the train, the sergeants of the Northern Army were gathered around. No one spoke. They all looked at the train quietly, not knowing what was going on inside.

The condolence group's train disappeared in full view. It was obviously a space attack, and the spies surrounding the train shouted "There is an assassin!"

Inside the train were the eldest princess of the empire and Marquis Falling Star, the governor of Raging Waves City. I heard that His Highness Sinclair was also on board. They can be said to be the most powerful people in the empire.

Nearly two hours passed between the time the train disappeared and its reappearance.

Is there anyone alive in the train?

If the eldest princess of the empire, the governor of Raging Waves City, and His Highness Sinclair all died, they would die at the main station of the Northern Army.

What will become of the Empire?

What fate awaits you?

The officers who initiated the mutiny were also waiting for news to come from the train.

Has the Temple of the Abyss succeeded?

Standing high on the fortress, General Qiao Xiuer looked at the quiet train with complicated emotions.

What's going on inside now? Is Sinclair safe?

Without letting the people outside wait too long, a group of imperial agents stepped out of the train. They spread out in formation on both sides to form two cordons.

Then Sinclair walked out of the car.

He stood still and said loudly: "All sergeants of the Northern Army, listen to the order! General Joshua is relieved of all positions in the army, and I, Sinclair Augustine, will serve as the temporary commander of the Northern Army.

Now! Except for those on military duty, all officers and your soldiers should return to their respective barracks immediately. No one is allowed to go out without my order.

If you violate the order, you will be punished by military law!

Execute immediately!”

Sinclair's order made most of the sergeants of the Northern Army realize that the assassination of the Imperial Princess and Marquis of Falling Star was related to General Qiao Shuer.

Although it was procedurally incorrect for Sinclair to dismiss Joe Schul as the commander of the Northern Army, the morale of the army was no longer as united as before. The Northern Army immediately divided into two groups. Most of the officers shouted orders and returned with their soldiers.

The barracks were waiting for the results, while a small number of officers and a group of soldiers stayed in place.

They already knew the assassination failed.

The crime of assassinating the Princess of the Empire and the Marquis of Falling Star was enough to cut off their heads.

Work hard!

This was the idea of ​​these officers, but it was not only the Imperial agents who were blocking the train, but also His Highness Sinclair.

The officers all looked at Qiao Xiuer at the top, waiting for his orders.

Sinclair stood outside the carriage door to prevent these officers from leading troops to storm the train.

After all the officers and soldiers who followed the order left, Sinclair shouted to the remaining people: "Some of you have no idea what happened. Your loyalty to General Joshua will only be based on his crimes."

Add more crimes.

It's over, everything is over. I don't want any sergeant from the Northern Army to die innocently for this farce.

Please let me take care of the rest, and please trust me!"

Sinclair's words made some officers shaken. They really didn't know what happened, and they stayed only out of loyalty to Qiao Shuer.

A commotion broke out among the confrontational sergeants, but no one left.

An officer shouted to Sinclair: "Your Highness Sinclair, we only obey the orders of Commander Qiao Shuer!"

Sinclair knew that his prestige could not subdue these sergeants, so he shouted loudly to Qiao Xiul on the high platform: "Uncle Qiao Xiu Er! Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Marquis of Falling Star are both safe and sound, and all the assassins have been killed. You have committed a crime."

It is an unforgivable crime. Do you want to drag so many soldiers who are loyal to you to die together?" Lan

Qiao Xiul on the high platform looked at Sinclair in front of the train. He did not expect that the Temple of the Abyss had failed. Agatha and Meteorite were alive, which meant that the third apostle Belga was dead.

Now most of the soldiers in the Northern Army have been psychologically broken by the empire's condolences and are waiting to accept the empire's reorganization. Even if the remaining people rebel, it will be difficult to cause a big disturbance.

And why should we rebel?

Sinclair even stood up against himself.

After being silent for a while, Qiao Xiuer said: "I resigned from all positions in the Northern Army, and the position of Army Commander was handed over to Sinclair. You all follow the orders of the new Army Commander and go back to the barracks to wait for new instructions."

After giving the last order, Qiao Xiuer turned around and walked into the room.

The sergeants who gathered together looked at each other, and then left dejectedly.
To be continued...
