Chapter 2552 Punish It (I've Been Getting Lazy Recently)

Facts have proved that Cassius really lived up to his reputation. Before the first ray of sunlight appeared on the horizon in the morning, the mysterious phenomenon of cessation of guiding power was completely eliminated, and Cassius also led the unconscious Colonel Richard from the The victory in the underground ruins, so far, the turmoil that has affected the entire kingdom has finally come to an end.

But for Fangzheng...he still has to make amends.

"I am very sorry, Her Majesty."

Fang Zheng pushed Xiao Hei's head down.

"I'm sorry, my Xiao Hei really didn't know the severity of his actions, and damaged the Royal City of Gransell... Please forgive me. Of course, as an apology, we, Starlight Technology, are willing to bear all the repair costs of the Royal City."

"Hehehe, Mr. Fangzheng, please don't say such things."

Queen Alicia, who was sitting in front of Fang Zheng, also shook her head with a smile, then stood up and bowed her head towards Fang Zheng.

"I should be the one to thank you. If you hadn't taken decisive action, Mr. Fangzheng, I'm afraid this coup d'état would not have ended so easily."

Queen Alicia's thanks are also sincere. The Intelligence Department's sudden attack was two or three days ago. They first imprisoned Kolos, then raided Chase's central workshop, and then expressed their intention to prosecute the royal family for this reason. The guards conducted an investigation and arrested and detained them by surprise. Then, under the threat of Kolos' life, Queen Alicia was put under house arrest.

Since all the high-level military officers were in the hands of the intelligence department, and the incident happened suddenly, Queen Alicia had nothing to do. In fact, according to Colonel Richard's approach, he also wants to abdicate Queen Alicia next, and Duke Dunan will inherit the throne.

At that time, Queen Alicia was also worried. She also hoped to break this situation, but there was nothing she could do. If it wasn't for Fang Zheng's decisive decision, after Richard completed the layout, the possibility of defeating him again would be greatly reduced. And at that time, the intelligence department will also have a certain amount of military power, and it might turn into civil strife in the kingdom—if this happens, then it is difficult to guarantee that the republic and the empire will not take advantage of it.

It was precisely because Fangzheng captured Abel's Palace within a day, and Colonel Richard, who sensed that something was wrong, hurried into the underground restricted area, trying to implement his plan, and thus a loophole appeared, causing the intelligence department to The Secret Service was completely suppressed by the Royal Guards.

Otherwise, if Colonel Richard himself, who is the central commander, is still there, it may take a lot of effort to get back the Queen.

"Mr. Fangzheng and your starlight technology have contributed a lot to the defeat of Colonel Richard's coup plot this time. Our Liberian royal family will never forget what you have done. As for compensation or something, don't mention it again. If If it wasn’t for the hard work of these two lovely girls beside you, I’m afraid it would be very difficult for me to escape safely.”

"I can assure you of that."

At this time Shirazade also stood up and nodded vigorously.

"The strength of the Second Lieutenant Lawrence at that time was far beyond my imagination. Even with me, Estier and Princess Kolotia working together, it would be very difficult to defeat him. If it wasn't for the little black lady and Miss Illya is entangled with Second Lieutenant Lawrence, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to rescue the queen safely."

"Where is it, I was just impulsive..."

"No, I heard Tita and the others say that Mr. Fangzheng immediately suspected that it might be a coup d'état after receiving the information from the capital, and took corresponding actions, and soon found out that we were locked up in Abel's departure from the palace... Anyway, it's all thanks to you, Mr. Fangzheng."

Ke Luosi also hurriedly stood up to thank her.

"Well, in fact, I just did some minor work... By the way, I'm curious, why did Colonel Richard initiate a coup? Is it because he is idle?"

Fangzheng obviously didn't intend to waste time on this kind of business bragging, so he simply changed the topic. In fact, he was really curious about this question.

Although the answer can be obtained by using "Xiao Gao Pian Ban", but this is the same as playing a game to read the strategy, which is very boring.

"In fact, Colonel Richard is a very capable soldier."

When this question was mentioned, Queen Alicia's complexion looked a little complicated.

"He is loyal to the Kingdom of Liber, and has always expected to make the country stronger... In fact, after the previous 'Hundred Days War', some people believed that having a woman as king would make the country weak , They believe that a more radical strategy should be adopted to protect the Kingdom of Liber. After I decided to pass the throne to Kolotia, this kind of opposition has reached its peak...so..."

"Please interrupt, Your Majesty."

At this moment, Cassius also stood up.

"I have something to tell you."

"What's up?"

"About Richard, when I was interrogating him, I found something strange."

"... strange?"

"Yes, I asked Colonel Richard why he set off a coup d'etat. His answer was that he hoped to unlock the ancient sealed treasure of Liber, and use the power of the treasure to make Libel stronger, so as to resist threats from the Empire and the Republic .”

"... Secret treasure?"

Hearing this, Queen Alicia and Kolos exchanged a puzzled look.

"Is there something like that down there?"

"Hey? Don't you know?"

Seeing the puzzled expressions of the queen and princess, Xiao Hei asked curiously, while Queen Alicia shook her head slowly.

"I'm ashamed to say that this underground restricted area existed a long, long time ago... It almost dates back to the Libel Kingdom during the ancient Samulian civilization. The information left by the ancestors at that time only said that it was a sealed forbidden area. , we are required to protect it forever, no one is allowed to enter. As for what is inside... Actually, we are not very clear."

"Oh, this is really interesting."

Hearing this, Fangzheng also frowned.

"How did Colonel Richard know about the secret that even the Royal Liberty family didn't know? Could it be that he bought a small book that was passed down thousands of years ago from a roadside vendor?"

"That's the problem, he doesn't know how he knows."

"……………Aha?"

Hearing Cassius' answer, everyone present showed wide-eyed expressions.

"What does it mean?"

"Literally."

Cassius also frowned and spoke.

"According to the results of my interrogation of Richard, he himself is very sure that there is a powerful secret treasure sealed in the underground restricted area, so he wants to launch a coup, seize control of the castle from the royal family, and then open the way to the underground restricted area. The way to lift the seal of the secret treasure. But he can't explain at all, where he got the news..."

"This is really interesting..."

Fangzheng touched his chin and narrowed his eyes, while Cassius continued talking.

"The question is not only that, we also asked him what happened to the mysterious black power guide, but he also couldn't tell, he only knew that using the black power guide can break the seal of the secret treasure, which is very important. But where did he get this black power guide, what exactly is it...Richard also doesn't know anything about it."

"this……………"

Hearing Cassius' report, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

And something so absurd?

You have launched a coup for this, but you told me that you don't know how you know?

"In fact, Colonel Richard is not alone in this situation."

At this moment Lieutenant Yulia also stood up and made a report.

"Before this, we had imprisoned the mayor of Luan's Delmon, but he was the same at that time. During the arrest, the mayor of Delmon suddenly fell into a coma, and after he woke up, he couldn't remember everything he had done before. , Mayor Dalemon has only a vague impression of what he did, but he has no impression of why he did it. We suspect that someone may have manipulated their memory and used their Ideas to act."

"That is to say... this coup is just the beginning?"

Hearing this, Queen Alicia's expression also became serious.

"Behind them, are there more dangerous enemies?"

"So far, that's right."

"So what's down there, Mr. Cassius?"

Fangzheng asked curiously.

"It seems that at least there are no secret treasures below?"

"Dr. Russell is currently investigating, but I don't know what it is. The only thing I can be sure of is that the seal below is some kind of device, and the black power guide is a switch used to activate this device. When we got there, we only saw Colonel Richard and the powerful guide machine that seemed to be in charge of the protection device there. Although we finally succeeded in defeating those guardians, we still don't know what the mysterious device is. What are you here for?"

"That's it... It seems that the matter is not over yet."

Having said this, Queen Alicia sighed.

"But no matter what, the matter has come to an end now, everyone should take a good rest. By the way...Mr. Fangzheng..."

Having said this, Queen Alicia looked at Fang Zheng with a smile on her face.

"Because of your bravery, we intend to award you the Kingdom Medal of Honor..."

"Not very honored."

"Hehe, by the way, there is one more thing I want to ask you, Mr. Fangzheng, do you...have a lover?"

"Hey?"

Hearing Queen Alicia's question, Fangzheng was stunned for a moment, while Ke Luosi lowered her head with a blushing face.

At the same time, Xiao Hei said with a smile.

"Of course, big brother has many lovers."

"You talk too much."

Fang Zheng slapped Xiao Hei on the head and interrupted her, while Queen Alicia looked at Fang Zheng in surprise.

"Really? Mr. Fangzheng?"

"That's right, as Xiao Hei said, I already have a lover... Do you have any questions?"

"No, I'm just asking casually."

Queen Alicia quickly recovered her calm.

"After all, Mr. Fangzheng is so young and promising, it's not surprising that he has a lover... right? Kolos?"

"Ah... yes, yes."

Hearing Queen Alicia's question, Kolos nodded slightly, but this time her expression was a little disappointed and looked very gloomy.

In this regard, Fangzheng can only pretend that...he didn't see anything.

Soon, the temporary meeting came to an end. After all, there are still a lot of things to be busy. Since Queen Alicia does not seek compensation, Fang Zheng will naturally just leave... Of course, he did not forget to take away the troublemaker.

"Hey hey, how's it going? Big brother, I'll answer the call okay."

Back on the spaceship, Xiao Hei looked at Fang Zheng triumphantly, while the latter patted her little head.

"Good job, it's not in vain that I will take you there."

"What's the big brother, I've seen this kind of routine follow you too much, it's nothing more than envious of your people or skills, big brother, and then want to marry... Isn't it just another Euphemia?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Hei winked at Fang Zheng.

"how?"

"It's great, I didn't hurt you in vain."

Faced with Xiao Hei's words, Fang Zheng gave a thumbs up. It should be said that Xiao Hei really deserves to be the person in Tiandao Palace who has the most sympathy with him. In fact, Fangzheng brought Xiao He over there, obviously to apologize, but secretly to guard against such things. After all, if the queen asks you to find a partner, it will be embarrassing for you to refuse it yourself, but Xiao Hei is different. As the saying goes, children speak without restraint.

So let Xiao Hei directly say that he has a girlfriend, and he will naturally give up the idea. After all, there is only one princess, Kolos, in this country, and Queen Alicia appointed her, so it is impossible for her to be a concubine for others.

"So should you give me some reward?"

"I still want to punish you. I want you to help, not to demolish the house! When you fight, you don't care about anything? Are you a husky?"

While speaking, Fang Zheng grabbed Xiao Hei's ear.

"Come here!"

Then, he pulled Xiao Hei to the next room, and then closed the door.

After a while, Ling on the other side of the corridor poked her head out and looked towards this side, then she walked over quietly, and put her ear on the crack of the door.

Soon, Ling heard intermittent voices coming from inside.

"Ah...Big brother, it won't work over there..."

"Don't be so wordy, don't you like it like this?"

Accompanied by Fangzheng's voice, there were occasional "cracking" sounds and Xiao Hei's cry of pain.

"I can't, big brother, help me, let me go. Huh... ah, so hard..."

"This is a punishment, just bear it obediently! Don't move!"

"No, it really can't work over there, ah... no, it's going to be broken, it's going to be broken, I don't know anything anymore, ahhhhhhhhh!!"

Hearing this, Ling nodded in satisfaction, then left the door, walked back to the control room with a smirk.

"Hahaha, Tio, that idiot is in trouble."

"What's wrong? Ling?"

Hearing Ling's words, Tio turned his head and looked at her in doubt, while the latter raised his head proudly.

"Hehehe, Xiao Hei got into trouble, and now the big brother is punishing her for spanking, I heard the sound of 'papapa' from inside, and the cry of that idiot, hey! Serve it, who Call her disobedient! Now it's all right, spanking!"

"Hey? Hey hey!!!"

However, upon hearing Ling's words, Tio didn't react yet, but Ilya, who was sitting beside her in a daze, screamed and jumped up.

"Really, really?"

"Of course, I heard it clearly. She was crying and yelling over there, and asked the big brother to stop, and then the big brother hit her hard, with no intention of showing mercy at all."

"Yes, yes..."

Seeing Ling who spoke happily, Ilya blushed and sat back down again, turning her head to look out the window.

"Well, yes...Xiao Hei is too naughty, he should be punished..."

Then, she just looked at the scenery outside the window like this, and whispered to herself.
