Chapter 543 The time left for the delegation is running out
The original purpose of Yu Lian coming to participate in the God of War Festival was, on the one hand, he already knew that some people in the upper echelons of the empire wanted to use the God of War Festival to eliminate himself as a hidden danger in the future. With his character, how could he guard against thieves for a thousand days?
The logic is, of course, that before the thief takes action, he must beat the other person so that they dare not even look at him for a short period of time.
Now, this goal has basically been achieved. He estimated that he should have killed the Astral Knights so much that they had a psychological shadow, and they would not dare to provoke him for a while.
On the other hand, of course, it’s for Seldy Stork. This guy is a top student, has a sense of responsibility and empathy, and he grew up in the Red Maple Factory. He is definitely a born revolutionary, and he is also a good student.
How could he, who was born a fellow traveler, be allowed to waste his life as an exiled laborer on a planet on the frontier of the empire?
Moreover, Yu Lian is now almost certain that the man behind the scenes framed Seldy, which was the reason why he was forced to participate in the God of War Festival. Due to circumstances and reasons, he has an obligation.
If you can get the MVP of the God of War Festival, you can ask the emperor to pardon Seldi. The will of the Void Crown overrides all departments of the empire. If the emperor is willing, even traitors can be pardoned, let alone a small person.
of "manslaughter".
However, the most valuable prize for the MVP of the God of War Festival was only used in exchange for Seldi's amnesty. Although Yu Lian didn't think there was anything wrong with it, Tan Jize and the others felt they were at a loss.
"If Seldy knew that the reward you risked your life for was just to exchange for an amnesty, he might have no choice but to repay it with his life." Tan Jize said: "What's more, if it was to exchange for an amnesty, wouldn't it be wrong?
Don’t you admit that Seldi is indeed guilty?”
Yu Lian didn't think there was anything wrong with using this opportunity to exchange for Seldi's life, but he admitted that the second half of what Tan Jize said was quite reasonable.
"Let's do it. During this time, we will also be looking for other evidence to try to see if there is a chance of a successful defense. If I am sure, I will find a way to inform you. When the time comes, you can change your wish.
Yeah." Tan Jize said again.
"We must be 100% sure." Yu Lian said.
"Ten percent! I promise you!"
As for how to notify him who had lost communication with the outside world, Yu Lian believed that Tan Jize would definitely find a way.
Then, as expected, he waited.
The young girl Irene, a part-time reporter for the "International Students Daily" who sneaked into the press conference, invited herself to attend the celebration party of the international students. It was the code that had been set before.
What can we celebrate? We can't really celebrate the cannon fodder team composed of international students who were eliminated in the second week, right? Naturally, it can only be that Tan Jize and the others have found conclusive evidence.
Seldy is safe!
In this case, Yu Lian will of course have to change his wish!
Wanting money or an official position? That’s too tacky! I’m not interested in imperial officials. Naturally, I like the imperial money, but there are ways to earn it reasonably and legally.
The so-called title of nobility is not my intention, I hope the empire will be peaceful... Well, peace is difficult to achieve. Even in revolutionary optimism, we must admit reality, but I will be happy to disgust you no matter how much I do.
Yu Lian saw the flash of astonishment in the emperor's eyes with great satisfaction, and suddenly felt a great sense of pride. It's really not easy to surprise an old monster like you who has a really long standby time.
Of course, that was all. The emperor regained his composure after just a moment, and then showed an interested smile: "An honor duel? But even if you are red-eyed and dissatisfied, it should be that boy.
?”
The emperor pointed to Viscount Shameen next to him and asked suspiciously: "Why Demen?"
The Earl of Commonmont slid up behind the emperor and whispered a few words, and then the latter suddenly understood.
"Oh, so that's what happened!"
With the identity and personality of Emperor Eliasel, he should not be able to act stupid at this time, so he should really not know. Yu Lian thought to himself, I really thought that you, the Holy Ming Zhuzhao, had insight into all things, so he chuckled in his heart.
"Because your friend was treated unfairly, you hated my police chief. Well, even if there is any problem with this matter, wouldn't it be the prosecutor and the court that should bear greater responsibility?"
With the corner of his eye, Yu Lian glanced at the press group who were eight hundred meters away. He thought that if this sentence got out, there would be countless people in the court and procuratorate system who would become restless.
"There is no way. The judges and prosecutors are both weak scholars. No matter how shameless I am, I can't have an honorary duel with a non-psychic person, so I can only ask Viscount Demen." Yu Lian said seriously: "
Regarding my friend's issue, I am really eye-opened by the capabilities of the Imperial City's law enforcement agencies. As the head of the law enforcement agencies, Viscount Demen should pay the price for his work mistakes in an honorable way. I am clearly responsible for my mistakes.
Under the witness of the spirit of the universe, provide him with this opportunity. Your Majesty, you should grant him this opportunity."
"This is too extreme. Yu Lianqing, we cannot judge a person because of one or two mistakes. Viscount Demen is an excellent police chief, and I am quite satisfied with his work. Of course, no one is perfect.
." The emperor was chatting with Yu Liantu like a nagging old man, and seemed to be enjoying it.
Of course, it was a bit difficult for the empire bosses to understand each other, and they exchanged complicated glances with each other. They could now confirm that His Majesty the Emperor really appreciated this "God's Chosen Champion" from Earth.
Speaking of which, His Majesty the Emperor seems to have always had an indissoluble bond with the people on Earth. Now the Heraldry Academy still has a confused title of Earl of Black Moon and a corresponding annuity account.
When they thought of this, the big guys present suddenly had an ominous premonition.
But at this time, the emperor, who was completely interested, had completely fallen into a fight with Yu Lian and could not extricate himself.
"I thought that what you would want is for me to pardon your friend. Wouldn't this just add a noble cause to your legendary experience of the God of War Festival? Oh, hehe, this is really a perfect knight.
Stories! Who doesn’t love a story with a noble beginning, a heroic journey, and a happy ending?”
"This is indeed my original purpose. But I have thought about it seriously. If I really ask for your pardon, wouldn't it mean that he is guilty in disguise? Now, my friends are applying for a retrial to the higher court, and the process is still ongoing.
I believe in their efforts and I am willing to believe in the empire’s judicial justice. But, Your Majesty, do you believe it?”
"Don't do this to me! There has never been perfect judicial justice in history. In fact, I am still very realistic." Emperor Eliser sneered: "So, is this your wish? Yu Lianqing, you
Are you sure you want to disappoint me on this occasion?"
The emperor said this while suppressing a laugh, and his reaction was like hearing a not-so-funny joke. But everyone knew that if the person who disappointed the Supreme Being was disappointed for a while, he would naturally find a way to disappoint the other person for the rest of his life, and even
Disappointment for eight lifetimes.
Agnes and Claire's hearts tightened. It was really difficult for them to understand Yu Lian's choice at this time.
"Your Majesty, after all, I am a champion chosen by God! If you are not willful on this occasion, you will no longer have the qualifications to be willful in the future." Yu Lian said bluntly: "So, Your Majesty, please be sure to fulfill your wish. This is the God of War.
The chosen champion of the sacrifice, the wish made to the son of the gods, the Supreme of the Galactic Empire! It is also the tradition of the empire."
The emperor showed a wicked smile and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "Yu Lianqing, do you have any strange misunderstandings about me? Although I am the emperor of the Galaxy Empire, my will and my decisions are true in this country.
No one can violate it. Whether it is the Privy Council, the Prime Minister's Office or the Senate, they are all under the Void Crown."
I have to admit that such politically incorrect words were spoken by the emperor as if they were objective truth. No one present, not even Yu Lian, felt there was anything wrong with it.
But at this time, the emperor paused and changed the topic: "However, the premise is that I am the country and give orders for official business. Apart from this, I have no right to interfere with the private affairs of my ministers."
"For example, Eric." The emperor said to his chamberlain: "I now order you to eat shit. Will you go?"
Even if you ask me to jump into the central reactor of Qingtian Castle, I have no choice but to do it. Earl Conrot probably thinks so. Of course, as a butler with high emotional intelligence, the Earl cannot directly confront the emperor.
As one of the core bosses of the empire's ruling body, he certainly would not directly follow the emperor's wishes and say no, but said with a smile: "That depends on whether it is for state affairs or for your own willfulness.
.His Majesty."
"You see, Yu Lianqing, that's what happened. I'm actually very reasonable. What I can be satisfied with can only be what I can do. Is that the truth?" The emperor shrugged at Yu Lian and spoke with sincerity.
He said authentically: "Therefore, I cannot satisfy your wish."
This time, it was Yu Lian who was stunned. Did he really not expect that the majestic emperor of the empire, the most powerful person in the universe, would be so natural to use strong words?
The other party probably noticed Yu Lian's astonishment, and finally couldn't help but let out a hearty laugh: "Hahahahahaha! Are you thinking that with my status and authority, I can actually be so messy? Haha, that's it.
This is where you still need to grow! Young man, you need to understand that I have learned one thing in my long life. The closer I get to the truth, the more I have to understand that people have their limits. Since you still have to
As a human being, you must learn to follow your inner will!"
Can it still be explained this way? Yu Lian wanted to roll his eyes.
"In short, the water in the world of extraordinary beings is still very deep. Young man, you are not sure yet. So on this matter, just listen to me." The emperor paused and waved to Earl Conrot: "Ai
Rick, bring that."
The Earl of Commonmont nodded and signaled to the attendants.
A few minutes later, two powerful guards came to everyone holding a box. Judging from their careful movements before, they thought they were holding some fragile antique vases, but when they opened the box, they found something on the delicate velvet cushion.
, but there is a metal remote pole about one meter long.
"Atomic light spear?" Yu Lian was startled for a moment, and then realized that this could never be the standard light spear of the Astral Knights. After all, no knight would be so coquettish as to make the spear shaft dark red and use obsidian to force it.
Rubbed a Kowloon Zhusun coat of arms.
"The weapon I used when I was young was originally intended to be given to this champion. The core atomic crystal has a purity that is 40% higher than the standard. Therefore, in order to maintain structural stability, the gun barrel is made of dragon steel and mithril.
It's made of alloy, and there's a space bag on it, which is the result of when I was learning alchemy when I was young. There should be some gadgets inside, which should be useful to you. Hmm...what are they?" The emperor thought for a moment.
Thinking, he shook his head helplessly: "I can't remember what happened more than a hundred years ago, but it must be useful to you."
That's more than just useful. The living god of the Nine Rings, the most powerful psyker in the known universe, left behind. For ordinary psykers, it is an opportunity that can only be encountered but not sought.
.
No, look at the expressions of the psychics participating in the competition, looking at the dark red spear shaft, it's like an LSP who has been holding back for a year saw a naked young lady doing table dancing and cheating at a 75-degree angle.
Especially Shameen... Speaking of which, this was the first time in Yu Lian's life that he had seen Shameen acting so glum.
Don’t give it up, I will use your weapons and your heritage to beat your children from now on! Yu Lian held up the dark golden cylindrical spear shaft with both hands and began to think about what to name this thing.
"Maybe there is a trace of my spiritual will hidden in it. If you really bring it, your every move will fall under my surveillance." The emperor added.
"It doesn't matter. I'll take it to the Void Spirit Temple to exorcise the evil spirits when I'm in the air. If I can't do it, I'll sell it on the black market. The weapons you've worn can be exchanged for a battle cruiser, right?"
"This is insulting me. I have to change to a Dreadnought anyway."
Yu Lian pretended that he had not heard anything and continued: "When I came here just now, I heard that there was a slight disturbance in the border areas of your country. So, my wish is... while your army is calming down the area.
, we can do no harm to Qiu and no innocent people are harmed. Is this okay?"
Yu Lian can't make his wish and ask the emperor to order not to suppress the rebellion. If the imperial army can restrain its hands a little when doing things and prolong the turmoil in the empire's border star field, this war god festival will be considered to have exceeded the goal.
"I promised." The emperor smiled and nodded, not hiding the appreciation in his eyes at all: "Then I will give you an extra benefit. If you hold my spear, if you meet on the battlefield in the future, my knights will let you go.
Once. Of course, only once."
Yu Lian closed his eyes slightly, bent down and bowed: "Thank you for your generosity and kindness."
In this way, the 250th God of War Festival, which was also the first God of War Festival with dead people after the Galaxy War, came to an end. Although people died, the ratings and popularity of the God of War Festival set a historical record for the God of War Festival, and the advertisements alone
The income is enough to make the bureaucrats of the Prime Minister's Office feel happy. Some people have even proposed to the superiors that the next War God Festival must be held by the Prime Minister's Office, and the event can be designed to be more cruel, forcing the contestants to start early.
Fight.
Compared to the Golden Dragon who made a huge sum of money, the problem of the God's Chosen Champion being taken away by an earthling is no longer a problem.
After all, people on earth are also human beings. We are all the eldest sons of the spirit of the universe.
In addition, Viscount Demen escaped once again. If this guy was really a hard-headed traditional aristocrat, he would have been so embarrassed and angry that he would have killed himself to thank the world. However, in one generation, he could become a hereditary aristocrat and the head of the police system.
The nouveau riche is different. Not to mention his ability, his face alone is definitely very unattainable. He acts as if nothing has happened and continues to go to work as usual every day.
On the other hand, Yu Lian finally met the military delegation from the community, and also met his nominal senior brother, Mr. Tantai Jing.
The senior brother was not polite and hugged Yu Lian directly: "Well done! On the day of your battle in the river valley, Teacher Lan went to the club to drink all night after a long time. Now he has won the God's Choice Championship again, and he also
I wonder how his old man will celebrate."
"Maybe he invited the girls from the girl group that he called last time to come and have a bar with him?"
"It's impossible. He actually doesn't like the cuteness of girl groups... Ahem, let's get down to business."
Everyone is a pragmatic person. After simple greetings and congratulations, they seamlessly switched to the next work state.
The work goal is, of course, the large-scale imperial joint military exercise that will start at the end of September. An observation plan must be drawn up two weeks before the start of the military exercise. The time left for the delegation is actually already
Running out.
"Of course, if something goes wrong with the empire's military exercises, we will have more time." Yu Lian said to everyone in the delegation.
