Chapter 389: The Twelve Palaces in front of the Emperor
The subcontinent is located due south under the main continent, further south than the eastern continent, and its area is much larger than the eastern continent. Part of the area has crossed the equator as scholars say. However, the subcontinent has the largest number of countries among all continents.
There are only forty-six countries.
On this night more than a month later, in a hotel room in a small town, the skinned old woman Smith Merlin had just come out of the bathroom, wrapped in a very long white bathrobe that was too long.
On the ground.
She staggered to the window, opened it, and looked at the night sky outside. The moisture mixed with drizzle blew in, causing the woolen curtains to sway: "The moon is covered by clouds.
It looks like it’s going to rain heavily tomorrow.”
Just as she was speaking, her beautiful and very strange maid walked quietly behind her, held up her arm, and invited her to the dining table.
Colorful sweet cakes have been placed on the table. These sweet cakes are all made by the maid herself in the kitchen of the restaurant.
The old woman Mei Lin giggled when she saw these 'cute' sweet cakes: "The desserts in these hotels are too terrible. They are not sweet at all. Only my special sweet cakes can make me happy." She couldn't wait to eat them.
He took one piece, then took another piece and handed it to the maid next to him: "You can have a piece too, it took me so long to make it."
The maid took the sweet cake expressionlessly and ate it expressionlessly.
A knock on the door came.
Meilin thought it was the waiter and shouted: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me?"
"Hey, old lady Merlin, it's me, Hallet." A male voice came from outside the door.
When Mei Lin heard the name, her expression changed, and she hurriedly got up and opened the door.
The door opened, and a young man of twenty-five or six years old walked in.
When Mei Lin saw this man, it seemed as if a stone had been put down in her heart. She asked him to sit down and said, "Thank God, you are finally here. Where is Lord Throne, is he okay?"
Hallet said: "You will know whether he is well or not when the master comes."
"Master Tianjie is here too?!" Mei Lin was startled.
Hallett said: "My lord values you very much, Mei Lin. You have done so many things for him in the organization over the years. If something happens to you this time, of course he will come to see you in person. So as soon as he receives your letter,
Your Excellency will take me to you right away."
Mei Lin patted her heart and felt even more relieved: "I was really worried before. That guy in the throne has been looking for opportunities to get rid of me so that her forces can come in. This time Cullenstone is dead, and the mission is also
If she fails, she will definitely use the topic to her advantage."
Hallet asked with a smile: "With the strength of both of you as magicians, how can you not deal with a boy? Cronston's death was very strange. Did you let him die on purpose?"
"This..." Mei Lin said: "That boy is really powerful. Not only is he protected by a dragon, but his domain ability is also an extremely rare dual domain..."
"Okay." Hallett interrupted her and said: "We are all our own people, and there are some things that you don't need to hide from me. I know you have been looking forward to Cullenstone's death for a long time. With such a good opportunity, don't you
Will you let it go?"
Mei Lin stopped talking, obviously that was what she wanted.
Hallet looked at the sweet cake on the table: "I've known you for several years, but you still like to eat this."
"Would you like to taste some?" Mei Lin asked as she picked up a piece.
Hallet shook his hand: "You can eat it yourself. Only you can eat such sweet things. I don't want to eat such things."
The clock in the room was ticking slowly. Ten minutes had passed. Meilin couldn't help but ask, "Where is your Excellency? Why haven't you come yet?"
"Maybe we've run into some trouble." Hallet waited quietly without any sign of impatience.
"Trouble? What trouble?" Mei Lin asked.
"No trouble." The door to the room was pushed open directly, and a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a silver cloak, a gray beard, and a very burly figure stood in front of the door.
"grown ups."
"Your Majesty the Throne!" Mei Lin stepped aside and looked at him respectfully.
This man in his fifties or sixties, with many wrinkles on his face, is the King of Heaven, Heaven Realm, one of the four thrones in the organization!
Hallet stepped forward, closed the door, and took his cloak.
Tian·Jie walked into the house without sitting down. He stood and said, "Meilin, you are too careless. You don't even know you are being followed."
"Following?" Mei Lin was obviously frightened. She recalled her journey and found no sign of being followed. Suddenly, her heart moved and she exclaimed in surprise: "Could it be Steel Needle Aile!"
"Who else could it be besides him? Didn't you mention him in your letter? Why not be careful?" Hallett said, standing next to Tianjie.
"I...I thought..." Mei Lin thought that when she was in Danluer, she had not met Cullenstone for a long time, and that Steel Needle Ai Le would not know about their relationship, and Steel Needle Ai Le
Le is going to investigate the case of a missing teenager.
Hallett said: "What do you think? Do you think he really just went to check for missing children?"
Tian Jie said: "'GITW' has already started to pay attention to our organization, and the pursuit has become more and more intense in the past two years. If you are really followed by him and follow the organization to the place where this meeting is held, then I
Even if I want to protect you, I can’t.”
"Where is he now?" Mei Lin asked.
Tian Jie said: "That guy is quite capable, but I have already driven him away."
Mei Lin lowered her head and said, "Thank you, Lord Throne, for saving me. Mei Lin will definitely follow you to the death."
Tian Jie said: "Pisces Palace is your place. As long as I am here, no one in the organization can try to take your ideas away. You just need to settle down and work for me. In a few days, three senior people in the organization will
The annual meeting is about to begin. You can rest here for one night and rush to Luo Shenguo. Don’t be late."
"Yes." Mei Lin nodded, and when she raised her head again, Tianjie and Hallet had already walked out of the hotel room.
A few days later, in a high-rise building in King Luo Shen's capital, a young man came to the conference room on the 13th floor. The corridor floors on this floor were covered with high-quality fur carpets with gray background and gold edges.
Extremely expensive and gorgeous flowers are placed at every window and corner.
This young man is the man who has been secretly following Bing Zhixie and hired Lan Yin since Debiles. His name is Alpata Danu.
Dannu walked in this huge maze-like building, and turned a corner and came to a golden wooden door. He stopped in front of the door, stood up straight and straightened himself
clothes, then opened the door and walked into this luxurious conference room.
The conference room is very large and luxurious. Seven crystal palace lanterns, which are only used in the royal palace, are hung on the ceiling, with ancient gods painted in oil paintings, illuminating the entire closed conference room. The walls on the left and right are decorated with
Sixteen statues of "humans" or "gods" of different shapes were carved using the technique of relief.
Under the wall directly opposite the entrance, there are six stone steps paved with granite. A smaller door is opened on the wall, which seems to lead to another room. In the conference room, there are also
The plants with a faint fragrance are even more rare than those outside the conference room.
At this time, in this luxurious conference room, there was only one woman sitting quietly at the top of the circular conference table. She seemed to be thinking about something from her expression. This woman's name was Gladys Shantola.
"Your Majesty." As soon as Dannu entered the conference room, he knelt down and lowered his head very respectfully.
Shantora came back to her senses: "Ah, you're here. Get up and come here."
Dannu walked around the large circular conference table and came to Shantora: "Most of the people have arrived in the royal capital, and there are still three of the twelve heads who have not arrived. They are in the lounge on the twelfth floor downstairs.
rest."
Shantara stood up, walked to a pot of plants, grabbed a piece of food from the small table next to it, threw it into the 'mouth' of the pot of man-eating plants, and asked: "Where are the throne and the others?"
"The King of Heaven and the King of Sky are here, but the other two have not received news from them yet," Dannu said.
"Hmph, is it still the same as the last throne meeting?" Shantara snorted lightly, but her expression did not change at all.
Dannu said: "Last year, when you hosted the throne meeting, the King of Poseidon only sent his deputy. When the King of the Underworld came, he claimed he was sick and left immediately. They won't do that again this time, right?"
"I don't know." Shantara didn't seem to care very much and asked, "Where are the others?"
Dannu said: "The heads of other deputy agencies are here. They all know about the Pisces Palace in Danluer. Many people want to take this opportunity to climb up to the Twelve Towers."
"anything else?"
Dannu continued: "Fred is here too."
"little Red Riding Hood?"
"He doesn't like people calling him that." Dannu said.
Shantara nodded slightly: "I understand."
Dannu asked: "Your Majesty, if the two Thrones do not come, should we postpone the meeting and make a decision after asking the Lord?"
"No need." Shantora said: "The throne has given me full authority to handle all affairs in the organization. Even if they don't come, the meeting will continue as usual at eight o'clock tonight. By the way, for the banquet during the three-day meeting, you
You also need to be well prepared.”
Dannu said: "According to your instructions, I have already prepared all the crown princes of the Luo Kingdom."
