As we all know, Prince "Arthur" entered the Yangshao Empire after leaving the Longhuang Empire. When he went to Jiadun City, he was assassinated in the Black Rock Mountains. After the first round of assassinations failed, the assassins attracted the hill dwarves and wanted to
Using the power of the dwarf to kill "Arthur", the misunderstanding was finally resolved through the mediation of Prince Arthur.
The methods of these assassins are clever and vicious. Many people speculate that the mastermind behind the scenes is Garfield, the second prince of Longhuang who has a direct conflict of interest with "Arthur", or the low-key Luke. Some even speculate that he is from the Lanyao Empire.
Lanbisi, but no one could guess that she was actually "Arthur"'s father, Dragon Emperor Rex!
Before Rex could speak, Chen Rui said a name.
"Projo."
Rex's eyes were filled with coldness: "Proyo?"
"During the battle at Black Rock Mountain, Proyo wanted to protect me from leaving even at the expense of his own life... However, as a bystander who did not put himself in the situation at all, I could see clearly that the orders and words he gave,
They were all misleading me and the guardian step by step, trying to cause misunderstandings between us and the dwarves. Fortunately, my guardian has strength beyond the opponent's expectations, and I have an old relationship with the dwarf master, so we resolved this.
A killing scene. At that time, I was thinking, if the speculation is true, why did Proyo do this? Is he a Black Death? If not, he is the main messenger who can make the fiancé of the imperial princess complete the mission at the risk of his life.
, who could it be? With this mentality, I asked Laura to do a small test on the sister's fiancé - although Proyo is restricted by some kind of soul contract and will not reveal secrets, but in this world
The power is very miraculous, as if some things are far beyond your imagination, my...'Father'!"
In fact, it was not Laura but Chen Rui who "tested" Proyo, using the power of the evil pupil.
"That's not a temptation, but a test for you." Rex's eyes moved, but he finally did not deny the matter and said calmly: "If you can't even pass this test, you are not qualified to be the successor to the throne.
Fortunately, you lived up to my expectations."
"This kind of test is actually the conflicting product of expectation and murderous intent. Even if I am lucky enough to pass this level, there will be a second level and a third level in the future..." Chen Rui shook his head: "I don't know when the 'test' will be.
It will turn into a real killing field, but these are actually not what I care about. There is only one thing I care about most right now. My Majesty."
"Although I appreciate your calmness, it also makes me more confused. You can even ignore inheriting the throne, so what are you focusing on?"
Chen Rui looked directly at the emperor on the throne with burning eyes: "Are you sure that you have controlled the power you are relying on?"
"I don't understand you."
"You understand! But what you don't understand is that when you think you have successfully controlled and protected that force, in fact you have failed!"
Absolute control of the empire has always been the highest achievement that Emperor Rex is most proud of. Upon hearing this question, the index finger on the armrest of the throne moved harder, and said solemnly: "You are doubting my control of the empire.
ability?"
"I believe more in the terror of a certain force." Rex was about to have a fit when he heard Chen Rui add another sentence: "My three guardians fell because of the power behind that force."
Rex and Chen Rui's eyes suddenly turned cold, and there was a strange throbbing in their hearts, as if the son under the throne was the real king who really needed to look up to, and they couldn't help but said: "I just mastered the clouds."
They are just the remnants of the Teng Empire. They have nothing to do with the Black Death. Back then, I used their power to defeat competitors like Sophie and ascend to the throne. Step by step, I consolidated my rule. Until now, these people have gradually lost their use.
The value and base have been cleared by me, and even the remaining power is firmly in my hands. I know the dangers of the Black Death, and I will not be stupid enough to let the Longhuang Empire repeat the mistakes of the Yunteng Empire.
Everything is under my control!"
So that's it! When Rex ascended to the throne of God, he actually used the power of the "remnants" of the Yunteng Empire. From this point of view, Veronica's marriage and the unexpected death of Prince Sophie...
Chen Rui's thoughts whirled, and the evil light in his eyes faded slightly, and he took a few steps forward: "Behind the Yunteng Empire, there have always been Black Death Apostles! This cannot be left to chance! You have made the stupidest mistake,
You overestimate yourself too much! When you think everything is under control, in fact many things are out of your control. I also overestimated you before. Even this Longhuang Empire is not completely in control.
You’re in control!”
"Bold!" Rex had recovered from his previous heart palpitations, and these words touched his nerves, "Here comes someone!"
Captain Urser of the Imperial Guard rushed in immediately with the Imperial Guards, and was shocked when he saw Prince "Arthur" missing in the hall.
Chen Rui seemed not to have seen the guards, but looked directly at Emperor Rex and said to himself: "In the name of Arthur Roland... no, in the name of Arthur's mother, Ikarina Lorenzola.
, everything I said is sincere. If for the highest interests of this empire, even your own can be used as a bargaining chip, then you should let this conversation continue instead of selfishly
The harsh words were interrupted. Perhaps, this was the last communication between us."
Icarina's name shocked Rex, and he finally sat down again. Without giving any further orders, he waved to Urther. These guards were all the dead soldiers around Rex, and their loyalty was unconditional.
Doubtless, there is no need to say anything about confidentiality.
The captain of the Imperial Guard did not take another look at Chen Rui, and immediately retreated with his men.
"Whether it is absolute rule, grand hegemony, or unification of the world, your ideal is to leave a famous name in the history of mankind, but... if even the civilization of mankind is annihilated, what is the so-called famous name?
significance?"
"The annihilation of humankind?" Rex didn't get angry this time. He just said four words coldly: "Scaremongering!"
"The ancient alchemical civilization I inherited is actually only a very small part. The alchemical civilization was a world as powerful as the human world, but it was destroyed at the hands of the evil god worshiped by the Black Death. No one will know about it now.
, In the history of millions of years, what great kings have appeared in the Alchemy Ming Dynasty? What great achievements have been made, because the entire Ming Dynasty has completely disappeared!"
Rex was finally moved, and the last sentence "No one will know" cut into his heart like a sharp knife. If the entire Ming Dynasty was really destroyed, then what is the meaning of the so-called rule and the so-called leaving a name in history?
"Everything the Black Death disciples are doing now is to bring the evil god to this world! And the absolute control you think you have now has actually given the Black Death disciples countless loopholes that they can exploit, which is equivalent to ruining the entire Longhuang Empire and even the world.
The future of the human world!”
When Chen Rui said these words, he played the clip from Doruda's Abyss of Destruction Alchemy. The flashing scenes danced in Rex's eyes, reflecting the horror and shock.
"Completely eliminate the forces of the Yunteng Empire! Perhaps His Majesty has already made such a plan, but I still have to formally propose this condition." After the judgment of the screen, Chen Rui waved his hand and a piece of paper flew lightly towards Rex.
, "This is for Your Majesty, let's consider it as exchange. It should be clearly written above, no need for me to say anything more."
Rex took the paper and took a glance at it. His face couldn't help but change, and he showed an expression of disbelief: "I don't understand? What do you want?"
Chen Rui pondered for a moment and finally said what he really wanted: "Holy Light Robe."
Rex raised his eyebrows and raised the paper in his hand: "Holy Light Robe? You really want that thing! What is your relationship with the Church of Light? Since you have the support of the Church, you have worked hard to run it.
The territory has finally reached its current level. Why did you make this choice?"
"Everyone has their own ideals and pursuits. In my opinion, what you are obsessed with may not be worthy of attachment at all. And what I am obsessed with, you will think is ridiculous and childish." Chen Rui smiled slightly: "The church and I
The relationship is not what you think. When time comes, it will naturally be revealed."
"I don't understand what you are after. But... you should hand over your chips after the deal is reached, not before." Rex looked at the plans written on the paper and smiled contemptuously, "
Now that I have obtained these in advance, you have no leverage. Maybe I will completely eradicate Yunteng's remaining power in order to prevent future troubles for the empire, but why did you get the Holy Light Robe?"
"This is not a transaction, but a choice, and a hope." Chen Rui looked at Rex calmly, "I said that it will not shake your rule, it will only make it more consolidated. This sentence is not perfunctory, but
Promises and Desires - 'Arthur' Roland to Rex Roland."
Rex understood what he meant, and his cold eyes flashed with a trace of ignorance. "Deal" is not a word that belongs between father and son. "Choice", "hope", "commitment", "wish"...these
That's it.
"That's the end of today's conversation. I'll take my leave now. I'll be here in two months. At that time, I want to see His Majesty's choice."
Chen Rui bowed, turned and walked towards the door. After taking only two steps, Rex's voice sounded from behind: "Since you said you want to completely eliminate the influence of the Yunteng Empire, do you know these things?"
The remnants include that..."
"I know, Ziyuan Palace... I will do it myself." Chen Rui paused, "It's not the time yet, but it should be soon..."
After saying that, he strode forward, leaving only Rex sitting on the throne, slowly tapping the armrest with his index finger, lost in thought.
Chen Rui did not use stealth or other powers, and walked straight out of the hall amidst the slightly surprised gazes of the guards along the way. When he passed by the Ziyuan Palace, he happened to see the graceful and beautiful woman on the steps at the entrance of the palace.
The sea-blue eyes looked at the familiar figure appearing under the moonlight, showing disbelief.
Even with the status of Shen Gong, she could know that his disappearance some time ago caused an uproar in the whole world, but today he actually appeared in the palace.
Before disappearing, he did something that also surprised the world, refusing to marry him at the engagement ceremony.
"I'm sorry, you know who I love, I will not marry you." This original sentence is already known to everyone.
Who this man ‘loves’ is also known to everyone on the street.
When Veronica heard the news, she could only sigh in her heart.
When she saw this figure again now, Veronica was still sighing.
"Little Arthur..." a name was whispered from behind the veil.
We cannot have a future.
No, you still have it.
I no longer have it.
What was a bit surprising was that the figure did not come this way, but continued walking along the avenue, but his eyes were always looking at her.
They looked at each other and walked over.
The mouth moved slightly, and even if she couldn't hear it, she could tell what those three words were from the shape of her mouth.
Wait for me.
Veronica suddenly felt a little dazed, as if she had returned to the past.
Suddenly, the figure gradually moved away and disappeared into the moonlight.
