The struggle for power has just begun, and the two favorites have lost the qualification to compete. This is a regrettable and helpless thing for everyone.
Su Xiao stood still in the meeting hall, observing the remaining three princes and princesses.
The seventh prince looked helpless. He actually wanted to do something just now, but there were two things he was best at. One was fighting powerful enemies, and the other was flirting with girls. After that, hehehehe, he could be called the little prince with iron kidneys.
The seventh prince wanted to stand up like the other two princes and tell the old king that he would lead the army of holy warriors to the front line.
After some consideration, the seventh prince dismissed the idea. If he really summoned the holy warriors scattered in various war zones, the old king would lose sleep. He was not helping the kingdom to survive the crisis, but wanted to rebel.
Among all the princes and princesses, the Seventh Prince poses the greatest threat to the old king. Not to mention his own combat prowess, his title of 'Wings of the Kingdom' alone is enough to reflect his prestige among the holy warriors.
Wings of the Kingdom was not something the old king wanted to bestow upon the seventh prince, but after something happened, more than 70% of the holy warriors made a request to the royal family. It was no longer a question of whether the old king was willing or not, but that it had to be bestowed upon him.
Fortunately, the seventh prince has a somewhat lazy personality, which is commonly known as the Buddhist type. After he becomes the king, he will definitely marry a large group of beautiful queens and form a huge harem, including even female holy warriors. This is what the seventh prince has always dreamed of.
thing.
Of course the seventh prince with such a Buddhist mentality would not rebel. He was leaning back on his seat and looking at the ceiling at a 45° angle. He seemed to be thinking about life, but in fact he was already thinking about where to go to pick up girls tonight.
Don't think that the seventh prince is a waste. As long as he is in the royal capital, no one can break the royal capital unless the undead army presses the border.
The second princess was bowing her head in thought. Her purpose was very simple, that is, the throne. Even if the eldest prince, third prince, and seventh prince could not compete for the throne, the new king who came to the throne would not dare to touch them immediately. They have financial and military power.
It’s not a decoration. As for the seventh prince, this guy can summon more than 50% of the holy warriors in the kingdom in a short time. How can he touch him? Are you looking for death?
The second princess is different. She is a black and white woman. If the new king comes to power, she will never survive.
The Sixth Princess is in a similar situation. Her mad dog personality is too scary, but she is not nervous. Instead, she is observing the expressions of her other brothers with more interest.
The struggle for power continues, and the current situation becomes increasingly strange.
The withdrawal of the eldest prince and the third prince is good news for other competitors, but not good news for Su Xiao. It will make the struggle for power more chaotic and time-consuming.
Fortunately, there is only one thing Su Xiao needs to do now, and that is to find things related to the ruins of the Shadow of Destruction.
Regarding the ruins of the Shadow of Destruction, Su Xiao learned some information from El Duo, that is, the ruins are within the territory of the Necromancer clan, which is not a secret to the top leaders of the Necromancer clan.
Although the ruins are within the territory of the Necrons, the Necrons cannot enter the ruins because they do not have a 'key'.
The key in Elduo's mouth does not represent the locked door of the Shadow of Destruction ruins. Even Elduo is not sure about the meaning of this key, but she knows one thing, that is, the 'key' is in the hands of the human royal family.
Before Su Xiao arrived at the meeting hall, he didn't know what the key in Elduo's mouth was, but after handing over the mastermind Luper to the old king and completing the first link of the hidden side mission, Su Xiao knew
What is a key?

…
Through the information of [Shadow Stone], Su Xiao already has a general understanding of the Shadow Ruins of Destruction. This ruins has three parts. To enter these locations, different 'keys' are needed, and the Shadow Stone is one of them.
'key'.
Su Xiao has obtained the Shadow Stone, and not only that, he has also obtained information about the [Stone of Destruction], which is related to the second link of the hidden side mission.

If Su Xiao wants to go to the ruins of the Shadow of Destruction, he must first find the 'key'. Although he has found one key now, which is the Shadow Stone, the more keys the better.
'Under the throne', Su Xiao has heard this information many times. The high priest roared out from under the throne before he died, and was later cut into pieces by the imperial guards. The commander of the Karen Army also said under the throne before he died, and then he pulled out the
Kill yourself with the sword.
At first, Su Xiao thought that "under the throne" represented some kind of darkness under the royal power, or some kind of curse.
It can be seen from the second link of the hidden side mission that he had completely overthought it before. The meaning of "under the throne" is simple and clear, that is, what is under the throne, that is, what is under the palace, and the throne is most likely the entrance.
This meaning was too simple and crude, causing Su Xiao to waste a lot of brain cells.
In the kingdom's meeting hall, Su Xiao looked at the throne high up. The metal throne was pitch black. It was said to be made of meteorites from the sky. This thing gave Su Xiao the feeling of being solid. At least he couldn't destroy it. As for its appearance... it was ugly.
.
The surface of the throne is uneven, and if you sit for a long time, your buttocks will be separated, so it is covered with several layers of animal skins.
This is most likely the entrance, but Su Xiao can't step forward to study it now. There are several princes and princesses around. He would be damned if he goes to study the throne now without being suspected.
Not only that, there are a large number of mechanisms under the throne, and these mechanisms need to be opened by people with the blood of the Herbert royal family.
A plan appeared in Su Xiao's mind. First, he would kidnap a prince or princess, and then take him or her under the throne to find the [Stone of Destruction].
