Chapter 274
"Who... who are you?"
The dark dungeon was filled with an indescribable smell, which reminded Chen Ping of the days in the basement of the Tiemu Camp.
Of course, the situation here is better, at least it is not that hungry.
"I am from the Crystal Dome Empire, and I am here to rescue His Majesty!" Chen Ping shouted.
"I... I am Repes, the emperor of the Crystal Dome Empire!" An old man with disheveled hair and a very embarrassed look shouted weakly.
"Clang!"
Chen Ping stepped forward quickly and cut off the iron door with a long sword.
The men of Kuanglong destroyed several other prison doors and successfully rescued more than 60 people.
All these people had serious injuries and were carried out of the dungeon by the Dragon Clan.
"Retreat!"
It took only more than ten minutes from Chen Ping and others rushing into the Fog City to rescuing the people of the Crystal Dome Empire.
Along the way, there were almost no obstacles, and there were no casualties.
"There are no pursuers!" Xiao Hei followed closely behind Chen Ping.
In many inconspicuous corners of the Fog City, countless Zergs were quietly looking around. Xiao Hei saw all the situations in the Fog City.
They rescued the imperial family, and the Kurt side did not organize a pursuit.
Most of Kurt's troops were transferred to the headquarters.
At the moment, the ones under the greatest pressure were Merlin and Sig. Their gravity bodies were indeed very strong, but with the help of Jill, the entire Kurt's offensive and defensive capabilities were not weak.
"There are no pursuers behind, let's rest here first!"
Chen Ping led everyone back to the edge of the Hei Canyon and stopped in front of a cave.
"Cough cough!" Repes coughed violently. He was already seriously injured. During this time in the dungeon, his injuries became more serious. In a hurry just now, he also pulled the wounds on his body. Many rotten wounds began to ooze out foul-smelling pus.
"You are... Why haven't I seen you before?"
"I am an envoy of the Emma Principality in the Bari Continent. The Queen of the Principality sent me here to form an alliance with the Empire. When the Empire was in trouble, I volunteered to come to the rescue!" Chen Ping answered respectfully.
"No wonder!" Repes nodded.
In fact, this so-called imperial expedition was not his wish. The years of war in the Land of Chaos had not made any progress, but instead consumed a lot of resources of the Empire. All parties were ready to move. It happened that the old emperor passed away. Repes had just ascended the throne and his position was unstable. In addition, the energy was cut off, and the apostles came, and people were panicked.
The Empire needed a war to establish its prestige, first to deter the villains, and second to stabilize the momentum. More importantly, there was the regent advocating beside.
A big reason why Repes was captured was that the regent colluded with the rebels. The reason why he was not killed immediately after being captured was that Kurt wanted to threaten the regent with him and let the regent give more benefits, otherwise he would send Repes back.
If Repes returns to the empire, the regent will not only be unable to monopolize power, but will also be likely to be completely liquidated.
Repes was also in prison, thinking through all this and predicting his future.
But he never expected that Chen Ping would suddenly appear.
"Ahem! My body... I definitely can't return to the imperial capital, and even if I return, it will be difficult to deal with that guy!"
Repes was already breathing less and breathing more, and was on his deathbed.
"I only ask the warriors to send Rephni back to the empire and... and eliminate Redis's followers!"
"Your Majesty, you will be fine!" Chen Ping looked at Repes.
"Father, you will definitely return to the imperial capital safely!" Princess Rephni had her hair loose, looking a little embarrassed, but still maintaining a trace of calmness.
"Funny, you must regain your power..."
"Father, I... I can't do it..." Rephni shook her head with tears in her eyes.
Although she has some reputation in the empire, she can never be a match for Regent Redis with this reputation.
"The Regent has worked hard for decades, and he has been in power during this period. He must have placed his confidants in various important positions. I..."
"This is a royal dispute. As an outsider, I should not interfere. But as the royal orthodoxy, if you want to regain power, I will definitely help you!" Chen Ping stood by and said in a deep voice.
Although the Regent gave Chen Ping "promotions", it was all for his own efforts. If Chen Ping really pacified Kote, he would not only have no value, but would become a thorn in the eyes of the Regent.
In the entire empire, Chen Ping has no foundation. Everything is based on the "reward" of the Regent.
If Chen Ping leaves completely after completing the mission or eliminating the apostles, he doesn't care about anything here at all.
But the relationship between this place and the Bali Continent is getting closer and closer, and even has some connection with Blue Star. He also promised Kuanglong to settle him in the core of the empire.
At the same time, after seeing the power of the gravity body, he also felt that it might be able to help him in the future.
After obtaining more detailed information about the Fog City through the insect swarm, Chen Ping completely changed his original plan.
Supporting the new emperor to take the throne, relying on the merits of following the dragon, cultivating his own power in the heaven, settling and monitoring the mad dragon, may also be useful in the future.
After all, the regent has too deep a foundation, it is difficult for him to obtain real power, and the old emperor is not so easy to control. The princess in front of him, who is about 20 years old, is the most suitable candidate.
"Warrior! Since you can rescue us, I believe you have the ability to assist Ravni, and Ravni will be handed over to you!"
"Your Majesty, I will take you and Her Royal Highness back to the imperial capital!" Chen Ping said seriously.
"Funi, from now on, you must obey the warrior's arrangements in everything, and respect him just like you treat me..."
Repace began to care for the orphans and even asked Revney to recognize Chen Ping as her adoptive father.
"Master finally became a father, even though the daughter is not his!" Xiao Hei stood nearby and whispered.
"I discovered that although you, a bug, have a very poisonous mouth, you are also very evil-minded!" The nine-tailed fox shook his head.
"Hehe, this is good. I will have another title in the future. The foster father of the Queen of the Heavenly Empire is my master!"
Although Repes was on his deathbed, he still talked intermittently for more than half an hour. It was not until Merlin and Sig returned that Repes reluctantly took his last breath.
"You...are the new...king of the Crystal Dome Empire!"
In the entire Crystal Dome Empire, Repace's father was the longest-reigning emperor. However, Repace only sat on the throne for less than half a year before he became a prisoner. In the end, he closed his eyes out of reluctance.
"See the Queen!"
The Six Gods of War's Elytra are independent from the empire, but they still remain loyal to the imperial royal family. Now Merlin and Sig are witnesses of the new emperor's enthronement.
However, with their identities and status, they still could not shake the regent.
"In the future, when I return to the imperial capital, I hope to get help from the Six Gods of War's elytra!" At the moment, Revni doesn't have the aura to be a queen.
"The duty of the Mechanical God of War is to protect the peace of the heavens, resist the demons, and be loyal to the empire and assist Her Majesty the Queen. We are bound by this duty!" Mei Lin immediately expressed her position.
"Adoptive father..." Revni looked at Chen Ping weakly.
When she said these two words, Mei Lin and Sig were stunned, and looked at Chen Ping with their eyes wide open.
Chen Ping was a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, please don't call me that. I... I still have some skills. So, you can become my teacher and I will teach you some self-defense methods in the future!"
"It is said that once a teacher is always a father, it is the same for master and father!"
"Yes! Master!" Revni's correction was very smooth, without any hesitation.
"Well, you go and rest first! Merlin and Sig, I will discuss how to deal with the Kurt rebels!"
"I'm not tired yet, and... I want to hear it too!" Revni did not leave.
Chen Ping didn't care and looked at Mei Lin and Sig: "What's the situation over there?"
In fact, through the information sent back by the insect swarm, Chen Ping already knew the situation at the Kot headquarters in the foggy city.
Under the indiscriminate bombardment of Merlin and Sig, Kurt suffered heavy losses. Half of the regiments stationed at the headquarters were seriously injured. A large number of defensive and offensive equipment were destroyed. The guard captain and patrol captain were killed. Kurt was the strongest. sniper.
But none of the four elders of Kurt showed up. These four are the strongest and true commanders of Kurt.
The first is Cypher, the leader of Kurt and the true spiritual support of Kurt, but he rarely shows up after unifying the chaotic land.
The second is Commando Captain Landis. He also initiated the three major battles of the Ardennes and led the troops to completely defeat the imperial army. It was also he who formulated the three iron laws for Kurt and established the direction of Kurt's development.
The first is organization. Organizing the team in a pyramid shape can not only continuously expand the scale, but also maintain the organization's combat effectiveness.
The second is bribery and softness, no matter what the other party wants, you must first agree to it.
Finally, threats and intimidation should only be used as a last resort.
Under his continuous management, Kurt has maintained a strong combat effectiveness.
The third elder is Gil of the Six Heavenly Gods of War Elytra. After joining Kurt, he became the chief mechanic. In the early stage, he formulated Kurt's strategic deployment and developed various combat equipment.
The last elder is Shaying who is guarding the energy warehouse. He has a very high prestige in the chaotic land, and his strength is also unpredictable.
Although this attack caused heavy losses to Kurt, none of the four elders showed up, and even the insect swarm sent by Chen Ping did not find these four people.
Either they left the Fog City, or they were hiding in the Fog City, and this attack was not serious enough for them to take action.
"I think the most important thing at the moment is to first obtain or destroy the energy warehouse, cut off their energy, and then slowly consume it. Otherwise, no matter how much we destroy, it will be useless. They still have a lot of energy that can be replenished!"
Merlin briefly explained the course of the battle and the damage caused, and then made her suggestion.
Chen Ping also wanted to cut off the energy first, but the energy warehouse provided by Langke made Chen Ping think there was a problem!
First of all, for such an absolutely confidential matter, even the senior management within Kurt may not know the specific location. Langke is only at the captain level, how could he get such information?
Secondly, the insect swarm did store energy when they went to that location, but the amount was not large and could never support the daily consumption of the Kurt organization.
In the end, no shadow of sand was found at that location.
Therefore, Chen Ping concluded that the energy warehouse was somewhere else. He asked Sig and Meilin to destroy it this time because he wanted to wait for them to replenish energy and find the location of the energy warehouse.
At the same time, rescuing the royal family may also cause the other party to misjudge, thinking that the goal of their team is to rescue the royal family, and they will evacuate after rescue.
"Rest for five minutes. After five minutes, attack Fog City again!"
After a while, Chen Ping issued a new order.
