Chapter 1006: Trading or Choosing
Remember for a second
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze.
As we all know, Prince "Arthur" entered the Yangshao Empire after leaving the Longhuang Empire. When he went to Garton City, he was assassinated in the Black Rock Mountains. After the first round of assassination failed, the assassins attracted hill dwarves who wanted to Using the power of dwarves to kill "Arthur", the misunderstanding was finally resolved under the mediation of Prince Arthur.
The methods of these assassins are ingenious and vicious. Many people speculate that the main messenger behind the scenes is Garfield, the second prince of Long Huang, who has a direct conflict of interest with "Arthur", or the low-key Luke, and some even speculate that it is from the Lanyao Empire. Lan Bisi, but no one could guess that it was "Arthur"'s father, Emperor Long Huang Rex!
Before Rex could speak, Chen Rui said a name.
"Proyo."
Rex's eyes were cold and bright: "Proyo?"
"During the Battle of Black Rock Mountain, Proyo did not hesitate to sacrifice his own life to cover my departure... However, as a bystander who didn't put himself in the game at all, I could see clearly that the orders and words he gave, They are all misleading the cognition of me and the guardian step by step, trying to promote the misunderstanding between us and the dwarves. Fortunately, my guardian has strength beyond the other party's expectation, and I have an old relationship with the dwarf master, so I resolved this issue. At that time, I was thinking, if the guess is true, why did Proyo do this? Is he a Black Death? If not, the main messenger who can make the imperial princess' fiancé to complete the mission at all costs , who would it be? With this mentality, I asked Lola to do a small test on the sister's fiancé-although Proyo was restricted by some kind of soul contract and would not reveal secrets, but this world The power of God is amazing. It's like, some things are far beyond your imagination. My... 'Father Emperor'!"
In fact, it was not Lola who "tested" Proyo. It was Chen Rui who used the power of Xie Tong.
"That's not a temptation, it's a test for you," Rex's eyes moved, and he finally didn't deny the matter, and said calmly: "If you can't even pass this test, you're not qualified to become the successor of the throne. Fortunately, you did not live up to my expectations."
"This kind of test. In fact, it is also the product of the conflict between expectation and killing intent. Even if I get through this test by luck, there will be a second test and a third test in the future..." Chen Rui shook his head: "I don't know when the 'test' will come. It will become a real killing field, but these are not actually my concerns, and there is only one thing I am most concerned about right now, my majesty."
"Although I appreciate your calmness, it also makes me more puzzled. You can even ignore the succession to the throne, so what exactly are you concerned about?"
Chen Rui stared directly at the emperor on the throne: "Are you sure that you have controlled the power you borrowed?"
"I don't understand you."
"You understand! But what you don't understand is. When you think you have successfully controlled and protected that kind of power, but in fact you have failed!"
The absolute control of the empire has always been the highest achievement that Emperor Rex is most proud of. Hearing this question, the index finger on the armrest of the throne moved even more forcefully. Sen Ran said: "Are you doubting my ability to control the empire?"
"I believe more in the terrifying power of a certain force." Rex was about to attack, but heard Chen Rui add another sentence: "My three guardians fell because of the power behind that kind of force."
Rex and Chen Rui's eyes suddenly turned cold. There was a strange throbbing in my heart, as if the son under the throne was the real king who really needed to look up. Involuntarily, he said: "I just mastered the remnants of the Yunteng Empire, and it has nothing to do with the Black Death. I used their power to defeat competitors like Sophie. I ascended the throne and consolidated my rule step by step. To So far, these people have gradually lost their usefulness, and I have basically cleaned them up. Even the remaining powers are firmly in my hands. I know the dangers of the Black Death, and I will not be stupid enough to let the dragon The Huang Empire repeats the mistakes of the Yunteng Empire, and everything is under my control!"
I see! When Rex ascended to the throne, he actually used the power of the "Remainders" of the Yunteng Empire. It seems that Veronica's marriage and the accidental death of the Prince Sophie...
Chen Rui's thoughts turned around, the strange 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 is not a fluke! You have made the most stupid mistake, You overestimate yourself! When you think that everything is under control, in fact, many things are out of your control. I also overestimated you before. Even this Longhuang Empire is not entirely in your hands. You are in control!"
"Bold!" Rex had recovered from his previous heart palpitations, and these words touched his inverse scales, "Come on!"
The captain of the guards, Ulse, rushed in immediately with the guards, and was taken aback when he saw the missing prince "Arthur" in the hall.
Chen Rui didn't seem to see those guards, he just looked directly at Emperor Rex and said to himself: "With Arthur Roland... No, with Arthur's mother Ikarina Roland Zola I swear in the name of what I say, every word I say is sincere. If for the best interests of this empire, even your own can be used as some kind of bargaining chip, then you should let this conversation continue, not Selfishly interrupted because of unpleasant words. Perhaps, the last communication between us."
Rex was shocked by the name of Ikarina, and finally sat down again, without giving any further orders, and waved at Ulse. These guards are thunder
The dead man beside Kes, loyalty is unquestionable, and there is no need to explain things like confidentiality.
The captain of the guard did not look at Chen Rui, and immediately led his men to retreat.
"Whether it is absolute domination, grand ambition or unification of the world, your ideal is to leave a famous name in the history of mankind, but... if even human civilization is annihilated, what is this so-called famous name? significance?"
"The annihilation of human civilization?" Rex didn't get angry this time, but just said four words coldly: "Alarmist!"
"The ancient alchemy civilization I inherited is actually only a very small part. The alchemy civilization is a powerful civilization world that is no less than the human world. But it was destroyed by the evil gods worshipped by the black dead. No one will know now. , In the history of millions of years. What great kings have appeared in the alchemy civilization, and what great achievements have they made. Because the entire civilization has completely disappeared!"
Rex was finally moved, and the last sentence "No one will know" pierced into his heart like a sharp blade. If the entire civilization was truly destroyed, then what's the point of the so-called rule and the so-called historical name?
"Everything the Black Death disciples do now is to let the Heretic God come to this world! And the absolute control you think you are right now actually gives the Black Death disciples countless loopholes that can be drilled, which is equivalent to ruining the entire Longhuang Empire and even The future of the human world!"
When Chen Rui said these words, he released a fragment of the abyss that destroyed the alchemy civilization from Duoluda. Scenes of flashing pictures danced in Rex's eyes, reflecting shock and shock.
"Completely eliminate the power of the Yunteng Empire! Maybe His Majesty has already planned this, but I still have to formally propose this condition." After the judgment on the screen, Chen Rui waved his hand, and a piece of paper fluttered towards Rex. , "This is for Your Majesty, even in exchange. It should have been written clearly above, so I don't need to say more."
Rex took the paper and glanced at it. His face changed involuntarily, showing an expression of disbelief: "I don't understand? What do you want?"
Chen Rui pondered for a while, and finally said what he really wanted: "Holy Light Robe."
Rex raised his brows and raised the paper in his hand: "Holy Light Robe? You really want that thing! What relationship do you have with the Church of Light? Since you have the support of the Church, you have worked hard to manage it. The territory has finally reached the level it is today, 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 nostalgia at all. But what I am obsessed with. You will think it is ridiculous and naive." Chen Rui smiled slightly: "Me and the church The relationship is not what you think, when the time comes. It will be revealed naturally."
"I don't know what your pursuit is, 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, then you have no bargaining chips, maybe I will completely eradicate the remaining power of Yunteng in order to prevent the future troubles of the empire, but why did you get the robe of holy light?"
"This is not a deal, it's a choice, and it's also a hope." Chen Rui looked at Rex calmly, "I said, I won't shake your rule, it will only make it stronger. This sentence is not a perfunctory, but a perfunctory statement. Promises and wishes - 'Arthur' Roland to Rex Roland."
Rex understood what he meant, and a trace of ignorance flashed across his indifferent eyes. "Deal" is not a word between father and son. "Choice", "Hope", "Promise", "Wish"... these are.
"This is the end of today's conversation. I'll take my leave first. 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 gate. After only two steps, Rex's voice rang from behind: "Since you said that you want to completely eliminate the power of the Yunteng Empire, do you know that these The remnants also 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 speaking, he strode forward, leaving only Rex sitting on the throne, and slowly tapped the armrest with his index finger, falling into contemplation.
Chen Rui did not use stealth or other powers, and walked straight out of the hall under the slightly surprised gaze of the guards along the way. When I passed by the Ziyuan Palace, I happened to be on the stairs at the entrance of the palace, and saw the beautiful woman with graceful and graceful appearance.
The sea blue eyes looked at the familiar figure that appeared under the moonlight, showing an incredible color.
Even with the identity of Shen Gong, she could know that his disappearance some time ago caused a stir in the whole world, and he actually appeared in the palace today.
Before disappearing, he did something that also surprised the world by refusing to marry at the engagement ceremony.
"I'm sorry, you know who I love, I won't marry you" is a well-known phrase.
Who this man "loves" is also known to all.
When Veronica heard the news, she could only sigh.
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.
I am long gone.
It was a little surprising that the figure didn't come this way, but continued to walk along the avenue, but his eyes kept looking at her.
look at each other, walk by
go.
The mouth moved slightly, and even if she couldn't hear it, she could see 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.
In a misunderstanding, the figure has gradually moved away, disappearing into the moonlight. (To be continued..)
