Demon Alliance, Brooke Empire, Capital Foxburg, Demon Alliance Military Headquarters.

During the truce of the War between Gods and Demons, the Allied Military Headquarters should have been the quietest place in the entire alliance, but not long after the New Year, the Allied Military Headquarters began to become lively.

This was a very grand ceremony, with military music playing, flags flying, and the guard of honor standing like marble statues. Such a formal scene has only happened once in recent years, and that was when the marshal of the Demon Alliance was welcomed - although the marshal later fell into misfortune.

.And holding this ceremony now is not only strange, it can also be said to be unique. This can't help but confuse the residents of Foxborough. Who is the military department welcoming by holding this ceremony? Who of the current generals is qualified to receive such a reception?

standard?

With the eager anticipation of countless citizens and nobles, the answer was soon revealed: this grand ceremony held by the military was to welcome a young legend who had only recently become famous, a dazzling hero.

A soldier who turned the tide—Lieutenant General Glens of the Wells Empire!

Speaking of Lieutenant General Glens, he was an incredible big man. In nearly a year, he defeated the attacks of the Divine Spea Empire army six times in a row. So today, the Demon Palace will be in

In this most solemn ceremony, he was awarded the medal of outstanding generals and iron-blooded generals. Because he not only saved the fate of the Wells Empire, but also brought the first good news to the entire alliance after the war between gods and demons, which made him full.

The grumbling demon residents rushed to tell each other and warmly celebrated that another famous general was born in this alliance. The Dark Lord is indeed the greatest. In every critical moment, he will send great heroes to save the situation!

Of course, everything has two sides, and there are some people in the Demon Alliance who don’t like Lieutenant General Glens, such as the owners of private casinos who lost all their money because of Glens’s consecutive victories; and those who

The generals who are peering at the throne of the next commander-in-chief of the Demonic Alliance are always paying close attention to Glens, whose status is rising, carefully studying his tactics and family background, and trying every means to find flaws in it.

and available places…

Unfortunately, every victory achieved by this reformed Lieutenant General Glens was achieved in blood, and there was really nothing to attack. So! Topics about Lieutenant General Glens's private life began to spread...

…But such frivolous topics are bound to not cause any damage to the charm of an iron-blooded general. Even when many ladies talk about these topics, their tone is ambiguous, their eyes are longing, their expressions... of course.

Obsessed.

On the top of the huge pyramid, dozens of generals from various empires were standing neatly with solemn expressions. When the golden-robed officiant hung three medals inlaid with bright diamonds on the chest of Lieutenant General Glens, he said cordially

When blessing him, warm applause resounded throughout the audience. Later, even larger applause broke out from the crowd of nobles standing in the middle of the pyramid.

"Child, have you heard this huge, thunderous applause?" The golden-robed priest looked at the soldiers in front of him calmly, "What do you feel in your heart at this moment?"

"Master Priest." Lieutenant General Glens looked back at the golden-robed officiant calmly. There was no hesitation or uneasiness in his young eyes, and there was no trace of rawness on his face that had been baptized by the flames of war. "That is honor, that is responsibility.

That is the highest reward that a soldier and a devout believer can receive!"

"I'm glad to hear the general's answer like this, but boy, in terms of rewards alone, this is far from the best. At least I'm looking forward to hanging up the medal for you next time." The gold-robed officiant smiled slightly and asked from the priest behind him.

He took a sword studded with gems in his hand, "This is the great demon clan's reward for your devout faith. It will be a sword that will follow you for life. Stretch out your right hand, child."

"A weapon bestowed by the Supreme Demon Clan! A weapon given by the Lord!" After seeing clearly the style of this sword and the special gems on it, every soldier present changed their expressions, and everyone shouted in their hearts, "Lian Fan

Marshal Erlen was not able to get something during his lifetime, why could he get this? A lieutenant general, the son of a loser?"

If you own such a weapon, the holder is as if he has obtained the status of a blessed knight of the Divine Alliance. His status no longer belongs to ordinary nobles. Even if he commits treason, secular officials and even the emperor have no right to pursue him.

Life and death can only be decided by the demons. Driven by jealousy, almost all the generals present hated Lieutenant General Glens at the same time. The reason why not all of them was because some people had already hated him in their hearts... Although

Despite this, the warm applause never stopped.

Facing this special weapon given by the dark demons, even Lieutenant General Glens, who had experienced the test of life and death, could not help but twitch the muscles on his face. After he slowly took off his right glove, the golden robe

The officiant pricked his index finger with a small silver knife, letting drops of bright red blood drip onto the scabbard and the gems on the hilt. Immediately, the gold-robed officiant chanted a mantra, and the entire sword was gradually covered with a layer of light.

Wrapped in purple brilliance.

"This sword will accompany you to kill the enemy in blood. As long as you remain pious, this purple light will give you infinite courage and wisdom, and the water will never fade away." Amid waves of applause,

The golden-robed officiant personally hung the sword on Lieutenant General Glens' waist and patted his shoulder kindly, "Go! My child, go and accept everyone's applause and blessings. That's what you deserve."

Lieutenant General Glens straightened his already straight waist and gave the most standard military salute in his life to the golden-robed officiant. Then he turned around, lightly pressed the hilt of his sword with his left hand, and walked up the long stairs.

The general walked behind him with a smile on his face. When the group reached the middle of the pyramid, the people gathered under the tower had already seen the great hero in their hearts - huge cheers suddenly sounded, and countless petals fell from the sky.

With a long cloak behind him and soft carpets on his feet, Lieutenant General Glens came to the platform in the middle of the pyramid and looked down at the excited crowd under the tower. He took one step after another, and the heavy medals on his chest rubbed against his military uniform.

, passing through the fluttering rain of petals, Shen Qin was amidst the heart-shaking military music... Lieutenant General Glenns' vision had gradually become blurred.

"Father! Have you seen it? Father! Have you heard it? Father! Have you felt it?" Lieutenant General Glenns raised his head to the sky, with two lines of tears flowing down his face, "I have obtained all of this!

"

"Little bastard." Behind him, the group of smiling generals were cursing secretly, "Let's see how arrogant you can be."

"Lieutenant General, keep walking, don't stop, keep smiling." The loyal Brigadier General Shaya appeared next to Lieutenant General Glens in time and reminded him softly, "After walking up these steps, you must immediately turn around and face the general behind you.

It doesn’t matter what you say when you say hello, the key is that your attitude must be cordial..."

The gold-robed officiant on the top of the pyramid stood quietly, watching Lieutenant General Glens walk through the rain of petals in the sky, and say goodbye to the generals at the end of the red carpet. Until he boarded the luxury carriage in the procession and left, the officiant

The man turned around and rubbed his forehead with his fingers, looking tired.

"It's been really hard for the officiant to hold such a lengthy ceremony. Sir, please take a rest in this room first!" As soon as he entered his room, the obedient Zuoji came up with Maozhong, "I received a special award from the Dark Demon Clan.

, this lieutenant general will become the popular candidate for the next marshal of the coalition forces, right? Your Excellency, you really have a keen eye for talents! There is such an outstanding young talent in the alliance, you must be very pleased, right?"

"Glad? I'm afraid it will hurt your brain even more." The golden-robed officiant turned his eyes, looked at the incompetent subordinate next to him indifferently, and lectured softly, "In your heart, you also think that Lieutenant General Glenns

Can you support the Demon Alliance?"

"If Lieutenant General Glens is unable to support this heavy burden, why does the officiant ask the dark demons to give him a sword?" Priest Zuo handed Mao Zhong and asked in confusion: "Is there anything special about your arrangement?

What does it mean?"

"Although you are my closest disciple, this matter is not something you can interfere with now." The chief priest wiped his hands with hair, "Do your own thing well, and don't expect to get any inside information from me before taking it.

Give your stupid relatives a lesson."

"Teacher, forgive me!" Zuo Ji's legs softened and he knelt on the ground, "Disciple is stupid..."

"I'm not blaming you for saying this. You have followed me since you were a child and share the same love as father and son. As a person, you can choose anything, but birth is an exception. When you step into this circle of right and wrong, and want to blend in, you will inevitably

I have contracted some bad habits, and I can pretend not to see them." The golden-robed officiant threw Mao Zhong on the table, sighed rarely, and said in a solemn tone, "But you have to remember one thing, some of them will hurt you.

You can't do anything about yourself, even if the other person is your relative. If you are forced to make a choice, I suggest you sacrifice the interests of your relatives."

"Thank you, teacher, for your advice. I have learned from you." Zuo Ji picked up Mao Zhong and stepped back step by step. "Disciple, please leave first."

The gold-robed officiant leaned his head on the chair, closed his eyes and fell asleep for a while. The left officiant walked in again, stood by the door with his hands lowered, and said softly, "Master officiant, there is someone who wants to see you."

"Ordinary people are missing." Then he thought that ordinary visitors did not need to be announced personally by Zuo Ji. The chief priest opened his eyes and asked, "Who is here?"

"It's your acquaintance, Duke Sweeney Hepburn of the Brooke Empire." Zuoji replied, "Waiting outside the garden."

"Reckless young man." The officiant raised his hand and asked him to come in. I want to see him alone."

"Yes, my lord."

After a while, Swice Hepburn was led into the room by Zuoji. Compared with usual, the most beautiful man in the Demon Alliance was no different from before, the same gentle and elegant, the same extraordinary magnanimity -

- Even his "beautiful" eyes are showing obvious dissatisfaction.

Five steps away from the door, Swiss Hepburn saluted the golden-robed officiant, and then stood quietly. However, the golden-robed officiant sitting on the high platform did not stand up and return the salute as usual, let alone

Say some words of blessing. When Zuo Ji, who was standing aside, saw this scene, he immediately closed the door and left.

"Is there something so urgent that you come here to see me in person?" After a long time, the chief priest finally spoke, "It will cost a lot for an out-of-date noble to go to this pyramid."

"The officiant has a transcendent status, so it will cost a lot to meet you, but for this matter, it is worth it." Swiss Hepburn replied calmly, but the dissatisfaction in his eyes did not fade away.

"After meeting me, am I obligated to solve any problems for you?" The officiant smiled, and the contempt spread from the corner of his mouth, "And in what name can you ask me to solve something for you? Yes.

In the name of a forcibly retired major general? Or in the name of a hidden pillar of the empire?"

"I come here as an ordinary follower and believer of the Dark Lord." Swiss Hepburn's tone was still calm, "As the gold-robed officiant, you cannot refuse a believer's request for help."

"Of course, I can't refuse such a request, so you can come closer."

After Sivis Hepburn took a few steps closer, the officiant said calmly: "Listen up, turn left out of this door, then go straight out, and there will be a place dedicated to receiving ordinary believers. If your request is really special,

If it is urgent, then there is hope that it will be forwarded to me in ten years."

"Master officiant, I'm not kidding, this is related to a person's life or death!" Swiss Hepburn clenched his hands and said this in the most indignant tone... But unfortunately, his posture at this time was also the most indignant.

"beauty".

"A person's life and death? A duke, a major general, a person who has been given unlimited hope, would be so nervous about a person's life and death?" The officiant showed the most kind expression indifferently, "Tell me, this

Who is this person?”

"Glens! Lieutenant General Glens, my lifelong friend." Swiss Hepburn took a breath slowly to stabilize his emotions, "The officiant just awarded him a medal, he won't do it so soon.

Forgot."

"Of course I know Lieutenant General Glens. He has just received the supreme honor that every soldier dreams of, and has a bright future, and these are all earned by his military merit." The officiant picked up the wine glass on the table and said

"What? Is his life in danger?"

"But what you gave him, the officiant, far exceeded what he deserved, and the sword given by the demons will undoubtedly kill him!" At this point, Svez Hepburn became excited.

, "No one knows Glens better than me - he will not be able to survive the complex power struggle in the future, and he will die in the jealous hearts of countless people! Master officiant... you are such a wise person, you will not understand.

That's it, right?"

"Giving him the sword is an order from the Dark Demon Clan, and I am cautiously optimistic about the future development of Lieutenant General Glens." The officiant replied calmly, "Let's answer your request! You

What do you want me to do for you?"

"I...I want to ask the officiant," Svez Hepburn said seriously, "to take back the sword given to Glenns and issue a reprimand..."
