Chapter 316: Caesar's Envoy (Part 2)
Bump and bump
As soon as Zhou Qingfeng left this year, the door of his office was smashed and rumbling. Before Su Yang could respond, a tender shout came from outside the door: "Grandpa, it's time to tell stories, Zhou Zhou is here to listen to stories."
Well, it seems that I can't escape again today, Su Yang thought of this.
With a bang
The office door was kicked open by Xiao Zhouzhou. God knows where she, the little loli, got such a lot of strength.
As soon as he entered the office, Zhou Zhou first looked around with his little head tilted for a while. When he saw Su Yang sitting on the chair, he spoke, "Huh? Where is Grandpa? Well, you are Brother Su Yang! That's great. When you come back, Zhou Zhou doesn't have to listen to those super super boring stories told by Grandpa."
"Uh... Xiao Zhouzhou hasn't seen you for a long time, you've grown taller." Su Yang said with a smile.
For children like Xiao Zhouzhou, Su Yang is born without any immunity. It’s not that he is a loli control or something, but Su Yang has always liked to play with children. In his opinion, children are simple and easy to coax. Compared with those adults who have been intriguing all day long, it is more comfortable to stay with children.
"No, Brother Su Yang lied to others. Zhou Zhou only measured his height yesterday. He only grew one centimeter taller, so there was no change at all, okay?" Xiao Zhou Zhou said dissatisfied.
"Okay, okay, it's me that's wrong. I'm wrong. I accept the punishment and I'll punish me to tell stories to Zhou Zhou, okay?" Su Yang said with a smile.
Zhou Zhou's eyes lit up when he heard this. After giving Su Yang a look of similar eyes, he quickly walked into the lounge in the office, took out a small stool and a lot of snacks, and then sat quietly in front of Su Yang, posing as if he was listening to the story.
"Okay, today we will tell a story of a monkey making a big fuss in the sky. It is said that a long time ago, there was a land called Dongsheng Shenzhou..."
......
At the same time, in the Flaming Palace.
Lance III walked around anxiously in the inner palace. The reason why he was anxious was naturally the messenger sent by the Caesar Empire this time.
To be honest, although Caesar and Chiyan had no conflict, they could not say how deep the friendship was. Lance III was not worried about anything else now, the only thing they were worried about was the Caesar Empire's invitation to send troops to attack the beast tribe.
Especially after just experiencing a war with the Beast Clan and the rebellion of the Left Prince Desk, Lance III was even more afraid of other empires to mention some things about sending troops. It was not that Lance III was timid, but that what the current Flame Empire needed more was to recuperate. The rebellion launched by Desk had an impact on the entire Flame Empire, which was far more simple than the calmness of the Tianhuo Capital, but affected the entire Flame Empire. During this period, just to appease some of Desk's old subordinates was enough for Lance III to have a headache.
What's more, what it means to send troops together sounds nice, but its deep meaning is to test the national strength of the Flame Empire after experiencing these several turmoils. If the national strength declines sharply, the final target of the troops will not be the orcs.
Although the five empires have been peacefully together for almost hundreds of years on the surface, the emperors of each empire's interest in annexing the territory of other empires to completely dominate the Arad continent did not fade with the passage of time, but instead became more and more intense.
This is especially true for the emperors of the Caesar Empire. That emperor is known as the overlord who can be compared with the founding king of the Caesar Empire. It was not that Lance III was arrogant, but that Lance III also thought he had some means to be the way to be a king. But when it comes to the ambition to dominate the continent, Lance III was indeed not as good as that of Caesar.
Now, shortly after the orcs invaded their empire, the emperor sent an envoy to his country. Lance III did not think that this mission was just a simple exchange visit, as stated in the letter of the country.
"If it's really just an interview, why send your beloved daughter to come?" Lance III murmured to himself.
"Report to your Majesty, His Highness Isabella, the third princess of the Caesar Empire, and her guards have arrived outside the hall." An eunuch suddenly walked in and said.
"I understand, let's go down first and treat Your Highness the Princess well." Lance III waved his hand, and then called the palace maid to help him change his clothes. Seeing that foreign envoys could not show weakness in their clothes first.
......
"Barn, is this the Flame Empire that is as famous as our Caesar Empire? It is indeed well-known. I don't know how many fire-type powerful people can be created because of the richness of this fire element. By the way, Bahn, is there any famous holy-level strong people in this capital of the sky fire?" A graceful and luxurious woman asked a guard beside her.
"According to the information collected by the Imperial Intelligence Department, the strongest person in the sky fire capital is currently the dean of the Chiyan Royal Magic Martial Arts Academy, and the great magician of the Fire Department, Lord Zhou Qingfeng." The guard, known as Bath, replied seriously.
If Su Yang was here, it would be not difficult to find that this Barn was the disciple accepted by the blacksmith Uncle Linas when he returned to Saen Village a year ago, and the heir of the Bashut family - Barn Barthout.
Although it is not clear how Bane became the guard of His Highness, the leader of the envoy, this time, one thing is clear that Bane has definitely worked hard in the past year, at least in terms of cultivation, because Bane's strength has reached the fifth level at this time.
"Is it only a sixth-level great magician? It seems that in terms of the strong, the Flame Empire is still not as good as our Caesar Empire." Isabella murmured to herself.
"Your Highness, be careful of your words."
At this time, another woman with long silver hair and wearing a Caesar Empire officer uniform walked up to her and whispered to remind her.
What is particularly noticeable is that the silver-haired woman's eyes were blood-red, and there was a mysterious mark on her forehead that was blocked by her hair.
"Sellers, I understand, thank you." Isabella said.
"This is what my subordinates should do, Your Highness." The silver-haired woman turned around and walked back into the team.
Isabella could only shake her head silently for her childhood playmate. In her opinion, Cyrus is good at everything, but she is a little too fond of making a big deal, especially in terms of her safety.
At this time, an eunuch came over and saluted, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is here to invite you."
"Well, Barn, Sellers, let's go in."
Barn and Sellers nodded at the same time when they heard this.
The three of them followed the eunuch and walked towards the hall.
At the same time, in the Flaming Palace.
Lance III was quietly sitting on the dragon throne wearing a noble and luxurious imperial robe, with a dull smile on her face. The great magician Zhou Qingfeng had also come to the palace from the path outside the palace, and was standing next to Lance III at this moment.
After a while, the eunuch led two women and one man slowly walked in from outside the hall.
"In the Caesar Empire, the third princess Isabella Caterin Hainrich de Loss, pays homage to His Majesty Lance, wishing His Majesty good health and the empire will last forever." Isabella said after performing a standard aristocratic ceremony.
"Please get up, the princess."
Lance III sat on the dragon throne and naturally supported her hands with her hands, and then began to observe the three representatives sent by the Caesar Empire this time.
This first one is naturally the third princess Isabella, known as the most favored princess of the Caesar Empire. It is said that the founding emperor of the Caesar Empire has some blood relationship with the royal family of the Delos Empire, which previously dominated the continent. Therefore, the names of royal members of all dynasties will be followed by a Delos surname. The Caesar Royal Family is also called the Delos family.
The Delos Empire was a country that was destroyed by the revenge of the ghost and god Kazan. Therefore, the Caesar royal family, who inherited the domineering and ambitious factors in the Delos blood, all the kings of the Caesar royal family made the lifelong goal of re-dominating the Arad continent.
As for the two guard-like people standing next to Princess Isabella, Lance III also knew something. One was the only son of the family of the Grand Duke of Bashut of the Caesar Empire, Barn Bashut. It is said that Barn Bashut was the disciple of the Iron Sword Lord Linas. He had already gained the fifth-level primary strength in just one year of his apprenticeship, especially the first-hand sword technique is superb. He is called a master of swordsmanship among the younger generation of the Caesar Empire.
Another silver-haired woman with red eyes and murderous intent was the personal guard of the princess Isabella, and the female swordsman Cyrus Elgert, who was named a hunting dog. It is said that Cyrus was born into a cadre family of Caesar Empire, but when she was very young, her father was killed by the anti-Caesar Empire forces. Then Cyrus's archives were blank for three years. When she reappeared in people's sight three years later, her strength had already crushed her peers. It was precisely because of this that Lyon III, the current emperor of the Caesar Empire, appointed her as her favorite daughter Isabella's personal guard.
"I wonder if the princess came to my Flame Empire this time, but what important things are there to discuss?" After a moment of silence, Lance III asked.
Isabella was generous. Seeing that Lance III had already asked, she nodded and said, "However, His Majesty Lance, Isabella has two tasks to come here this time."
"Oh? Please explain to the princess."
"First, Isabella came to your country to seek alliances under his father's order, hoping that your country would send troops to join forces with our country to wipe out a mysterious organization that disrupted the mainland - the violent search team." Isabella paused and continued: "Second, at the invitation of the Magic Guild Saint Saint, all young people above the fifth level of your country were invited to go to the Caesar Empire ten months later to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony of Princess Lilith, the personal disciple of Saint Saint Saint."
"So that's it. I understand. I will announce this invitation from Lord Saint Saranfa across the country. As for the first joint military service, it is of great importance. I still need to discuss it with the generals of the empire, so I cannot reply to Isabella for the time being." Lance III pondered.
"No problem, I have plenty of time to wait for Your Majesty's reply. By the way, Isabella has another unhappy request."
"Even if the princess is within my ability, she will agree."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Isabella has long heard of the style of the Royal Magic Martial Arts Academy in Caesar, so I took this opportunity to visit the Royal Magic Martial Arts Academy. I wonder if Your Majesty can agree to Isabella's small request?" Isabella said slowly.
"No problem, this is Master Zhou Qingfeng, the dean of the college. If the princess wants to visit, she can go directly with Master Zhou Qingfeng." Lance III agreed readily.
