Chapter 481: Lanqi Has Many Supporters when He Is Righteous, but Few when He Is Unrighteous
Duke Morotian, who was sitting on the right side of the Congress, was also a little confused.
He didn't expect Rocky McCarthy to be so bold, ignoring public opinion and choosing the most popular style of play.
Although in the long run, the Protos Empire will be wary of Rocky McCarthy's collusion with the Overlord Catholic Church, Rocky McCarthy's answer may also ruin his career in the Protos Empire.
But at this moment, people have become spectators!
"There is nothing to be afraid of. After today, people don't believe me as the governor of the empire. At worst, I will no longer be responsible."
Lan Qi looked at Morotian from afar, his eyes unwavering.
"Thieves are in power and there is no common ground, which is what really goes against my will."
Lan Qi said word by word.
His sincere eyes and words make it impossible to doubt the enthusiasm in his heart, and his subconscious willingness to try to consider whether he is truly capable of combining words and deeds.
After saying that, Lan Qi looked at Sigrid calmly.
Although Sigrid didn't know if her face was red at the moment, she no longer evaded and looked at Lan Qi seriously.
She was satisfied.
The Holy Son will always make the choice that suits her best.
For a moment, Morotian seemed to understand why Cardinal Asksan was so angry during the Cardinal's desperate battle just now.
Ba Tian Catholic and Ba Tian Shengzi, these two people, are insulting their opponents in a very new way.
The venue was filled with noises and discussions, and the whole empire was also buzzing with noise wherever there were screens in Helrom!
Even the Ice Witch who was far away in the temple of the King's Capital City of King Estherland was slapped on the head.
Why is her intelligence network always lagging behind?
Is Rocky McCarthy really related to the Catholic Church?
She thought Rocky McCarthy and Hyperion were having a scene together.
etc.
Why is the girl with the high ponytail sitting at the seat of the Tyrant Priest so expressionless?
The other high priests were about to open the champagne. She seemed to be going crazy, looking around, not knowing what was going on.
This honest child looks more like Hyperion.
"Huberlian is not so wild as to start a love triangle with the overlord Catholic Church."
The Ice Witch murmured.
But the more I thought about it, the more I felt that my divergent thinking was too much, and I should have trusted my intelligence network more.
In the Congress Hall, the noise lasted for who knows how long, and the whole atmosphere was a little deviated. It was not until the slight cough of the Great Sage Isis that everyone realized that it was time to quiet down.
The imperial dignitaries all held their breath and sat upright again to wait for a while.
The sudden confrontation between Rocky McCarthy and Morotian Berenhalder is clearly not over yet.
Rocky McCarthy stood up, looked at the great sage Isis, and saluted.
"I asked the Great Sage Lady Isis to check whether Mr. Berenhalder has [Abyss Black Worm], or if he just lacks such an eighth-level epic card slot. Similarly, he may also have a card that can cast Black Chain. High-level epic equipment.”
Then, he pointed at Duke Morotian and said.
These words made Duke Morotian, who was still slightly unhappy, couldn't help but laugh.
I thought Rocky McCarthy was so smart.
As a result, he said such embarrassing and stupid things.
Anyone who knows the laws of the empire knows that this request has no chance of being established.
"I have no authority to search the Imperial Duke by force."
Isis looked at Lan Qi with a complicated expression and replied.
Although she understands the other person's thoughts and can get them closer to the truth, this does not comply with the procedures and rules.
"Duke Morotian, can you please take the initiative to show it to Lady Isis alone?"
Lan Qi looked at Morotian again and asked.
Everyone present understood.
It is impossible for a strong national protector like Duke Morotian to reveal his trump card to the public.
After all, this is equivalent to compromising the core combat power of the Protos Empire.
But this problem can be avoided if Isis-sama is allowed to see it alone.
"Mr. Rocky, how disrespectful do you have to be to instruct me to do such a thing here? I believe that no eighth-level strongman will agree to such an insulting request of yours!"
Duke Morotian scolded Rocky.
Now they look torn apart, leaving no room for words.
However, after hearing Duke Morotian's reasonable attitude and answer, Lan Qi finally smiled triumphantly, and seemed to be amused by the intellectual layman of the other party.
"If Mr. Berenhalder is not guilty, why didn't he dare to let Miss Isis search? Could it be that she would do something harmful to the empire and betray your information?"
Lanci looked at Duke Morotian in confusion and quickly asked,
"It turns out that Lord Berenhard doesn't trust the Great Sage Miss Isis at all. In your opinion, everyone is a traitor? After all, you can even call your daughter a traitor."
As he spoke, he watched Isis sigh, full of great disappointment at the disunity of the Protos Empire.
Duke Morotian's face finally froze.
Because of presence.
All eyes.
There is only one thought faintly written on them: I hope Morotian will prove himself.
Morodian didn't understand why Rocky McCarthy used Wilfordism so skillfully. Every word he said could be a trap, which smeared him one by one until he was deadlocked and forced to prove himself!
A true master is actually always commanding his opponent.
Even the great sage Isis looked at Morodian with a little more displeasure.
"Ridiculous, I have no obligation to bear your insults."
Duke Morodian stood up with a cold face and prepared to leave Franklin Hall.
He knew that his situation was over today.
The collapse of everything started from the moment Asksan was defeated.
But unlike Asksan, he had absolute initiative in the dark.
Neither Rocky nor Sigrid could convict him!
As long as he performed a reasonable appearance, no one had the right to stop him. In the Protoss Empire, he had the final say whether he wanted to leave or stay.
Seeing that Morodian was about to leave, Sigrid looked at Lanqi, her eyes seemed to be asking, are you going to let him go like this?
Lanqi spread his hands slightly.
Being able to do this today and break the compromise is already their limit, because they really have no substantial evidence to arrest Duke Morodian.
But he has always believed in one truth.
The righteous will have many supporters, while the unrighteous will have few supporters.
"..."
Beside the monarch's seat in the Congress Hall, Isis was already a little hesitant.
Her intuition was not sure whether it was the right choice to let Duke Morodian go now.
But she could not break the rules out of principle.
Duke Morodian stood in front of the door of the Congress Hall, and no one dared to stop him. He put his hand on the door and slowly pushed it open. The look he cast at Rocky McCarthy and Sigrid was full of indifference and deep meaning, which was a warning and a new declaration of war.
They just finished the first round.
The real game has just begun.
At this moment, the door of the Congress Hall was opened at an accelerated speed, and it seemed that it was not only Duke Morodian who pushed it open.
Instead, someone on the outside of the door also pulled it open.
Outside the door stood a group of figures wearing special uniforms of imperial officers. They were not ordinary imperial soldiers, but non-commissioned officers of the magic special forces.
A senior officer of the imperial military blocked the way of Duke Morotian. His rank was Imperial Major General, and his warrior aura was at the seventh level.
His appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"What do you mean? Major General Carol?"
Duke Morotian stared at the officer and asked. The officer raised his hand and did not let him pass.
The military chief did not respond to Duke Morotian's question. He picked up some documents from his subordinates and looked at the interior of the Congress Hall with a serious expression.
"Duke Morotian, we have received the real-name evidence from Associate Professor Sido Arundel. He also provided a lot of materials, which were the evidence that Miss Cloris had placed with Associate Professor Sido before she was placed under house arrest. These shocking materials prove that Miss Cloris had once impersonated and replaced the Duke for a period of time, and confirmed the fact that you disappeared for unknown reasons in a very suspicious period of time until you returned again some time ago. You are also suspected of treason. Please accept our investigation."
Major General Carol's voice was sonorous and powerful.
He announced that based on these evidences, the military would formally arrest Duke Morotian.
At the same time, combined with the new clues provided by the Tyrant Branch, the disappearance of Major General Fan Reku and the tragedy on the northern border, Duke Morotian was highly suspected.
The momentum in the Congress Hall instantly reached a boiling point.
The nobles and ministers were shocked by this sudden change and felt the drastic change in the atmosphere in the hall.
"Great Sage, can you help us control Duke Morodian?"
The officer saw that Duke Morodian was motionless, so he asked the Great Sage Isis.
Finally.
Isis stopped sitting lazily.
"Morodian, what do you say?"
She stood up from the high-backed chair barefoot, the magic energy on her body surged, and the floor and walls of the Congress Hall were shining brightly.
This was the protective barrier reinforced by the Great Sage, and she was ready to fight Duke Morodian.
She hoped that Morodian was fine.
But if he really had a problem, even if she was disappointed, she had to accept this fact.
"..."
At this morning, heavy clouds kept floating over the sky of Helrom, and the light and shadow on the dome made Duke Morodian's face flicker.
He stopped his steps that were originally intended to move forward at any time, looked at the officer, and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't make any sound.
At this moment, the power structure of the Protoss Empire seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes.
"Sido... Arendelle... I really underestimated you..."
Duke Morotian lowered his head, his lips moved slightly, and whispered gently like a stream.
At an angle that no one could see, the corners of his mouth gradually rose, revealing a meaningful smile, and his voice was low and full of provocation.
"I want to leave, can you keep me?"
As Morotian turned back, at this moment, the originally bright lights in the Congress Hall became dim, and the golden decorations in the hall turned into a dark purple, as if the colors of the world were all reversed, and the soul shock made everything in everyone's vision turn into a weird dark purple!
The terrifying magical pressure emanating from Morodian at this moment made many dignitaries sitting in the audience feel suffocated and desperate.
