Under the leadership of Karina, Lin Zheng and the others finally arrived outside the palace as the venue. As soon as they looked up, Lin Zheng opened his mouth wide. What is going on with this gilded gate that is more than twenty meters high!?
"See you, Your Highness, Princess!" The two goblin mechas standing on both sides of the gate suddenly knelt down on one knee. Hearing this voice, Lin Zheng suddenly came back to his senses, and then he noticed the two golden mechas.
Standing in front of the tall goblin mecha, Karina nodded with satisfaction, "Yeah! Everyone, get up! Open the door for me by the way!"
"Yes! Your Highness Princess!"
After finishing speaking, the two goblin mechas stood up, then turned around and walked towards the gilded gate. Soon, the goblin mechas arrived in front of the gate. With a push of both hands, the towering gilded gate immediately let out a sound.
A thunderous "rumbling" sound! Lin Zheng was sure that this was definitely not a failure of the Goblin Empire's craftsmanship, but deliberately created such an effect. This thunderous sound of opening the door was so shocking and classy!
Amidst the shocking sound of opening the door, the two goblin mechas slowly pushed open the palace door. Just as the door was completely opened, the light behind the door suddenly lit up, covering a red carpet.
The grand avenue appeared in front of Lin Zheng and the others! This grand gesture was indeed to welcome the future king! Even if there are people with evil intentions, at least the pomp that they should have is still prepared for Karina!
Bah! But Karina didn't seem to appreciate it very much. Looking at the bright red carpet, Karina turned her face away with dissatisfaction, "Those guys, why are they doing such unnecessary things!"
Lin Zheng smiled when he heard this, "No matter what, at least you are also the future emperor in name. Isn't this the pomp and circumstance you should have?" After saying that, he patted Karina on the back,
"Okay! Stop being so mean and leave quickly!"
"I know! I can walk, you don't need to push me!" Karina muttered, then took a deep breath, then strode towards the red carpet, but after taking two steps, she seemed to remember something.
, turned around and pulled Lin Zheng, and then rushed towards him! Lin Zheng, who was slightly stunned, suddenly smiled. The next moment, his clothes changed instantly and became his emperor's uniform. Anyway, this time he
I came here as Karina’s supporter, I can’t lose this girl’s face!
The moment Karina stepped onto the red carpet, a solemn symphony suddenly sounded. In the slightly dim seats, princes, nobles, and imperial ministers stood up one after another. For a moment, the venue was filled with excitement.
There were bursts of warm applause! At this moment, it seemed that everyone in the entire venue was sincerely welcoming the future king and devoting all their enthusiasm to the king! Of course, how many of them are sincere?
That’s easy to say!
After a moment, the warm applause suddenly stopped, and was replaced by bursts of exclamations, because Lin Zheng, who was pulled by Karina, finally appeared! The white emperor's uniform undoubtedly distinguished Lin Zheng.
Zheng's aura is carried to the extreme. Putting on this exclusive military uniform, His Majesty the Demon King will strongly display the imperial style that an emperor should have in front of all the audience! Just such a look, even the most dull person
, they can clearly realize that the man who entered the venue with Karina is a real emperor, and this emperor is probably not as simple as the leader of a gangster in a mountain village!
However, it is surprising to be amazed. As one of the most powerful empires in the world, an emperor like Lin Zheng who has never heard of it is not among the guests of the empire. The key is that now, Karina
He actually dragged Lin Zheng to the stage! Soon, after he was amazed, the lights immediately focused on a middle-aged goblin. The goblin had a luxurious appearance. Just by looking at his outfit, you could guess that this was probably the prince of some kind in the goblin empire.
A similar character. After standing up, the goblin immediately shouted: "Wait!"
As the loud shout fell, the entire venue suddenly became quiet. After looking along the light, Lin Zheng asked in a low voice: "Who is that guy?"
"Takla, my uncle, is titled the Golden Prince!" Karina replied in a low voice, "He has always been very dissatisfied with my father. If he were not involved in this incident, I would not believe it even to death!
"
Just as the two of them were talking quietly, Takla's sharp eyes fell on Lin Zheng, and he said with a calm face: "Karina, you should know what the occasion is today, right?!"
Hearing this, Karina shouted unhappily: "Why didn't I know?"
"Then since you know that, why did you bring an unrelated person into the venue?!" Takla shouted loudly, "No matter how random you are, at least on today's occasion, you must maintain your basic responsibilities as an emperor's heir.
etiquette!"
As soon as these words fell, there was a small discussion in the venue. If you listen carefully, you can find that many people are indeed accusing Karina of not caring about the general situation. Lin Zheng frowned when he heard it. But soon,
Lin Zheng had no time to pay attention to these sounds. His attention was attracted by the person sitting next to Takla, because that person was staring at him with a pair of eyes full of murderous intent!
Duke Marimo! Even if you think about Lin Zheng with your toes, you can tell that that person can only be this guy. After all, Lin Zheng is his son-killing enemy! Duke Marimo looks like an old man with a beard, but he is said to be an old man.
It seems a bit too much, at least except for the gray hair, his face still looks quite young! If he shaves off his beard, he will almost look like a mature version of Bode.
Lin Zheng was not surprised that Duke Marimo had murderous intentions towards him. What surprised Lin Zheng was why the guy didn't jump out and reveal his identity. You should know that Lin Zheng was the main person who caused the goblin empire to lose the war.
Even the pit the emperor fell into was dug by Lin Zheng. If you want to drive him away, this is the most powerful reason!
Before Lin Zheng could figure out what Duke Marimo was thinking, the beam of light that fell on Prince Takla was transferred to a gorgeous and solemn high chair right in front. Lin Zheng, who came back to his senses, looked at it subconsciously.
I saw Karina's father, the emperor of the Goblin Empire! As soon as he saw his scholar-like smiling face, Lin Zheng couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart. He always felt like he was being calculated!
Soon, someone spoke, but it was not the emperor, but a square table located under the emperor. Behind the square table, three old goblins sat. Their faces were wrinkled like sour plums, making it difficult for anyone to guess who they were.
How old is your real age? One of the old men suddenly spoke, and his old voice said slowly: "Karina! Although you are allowed to choose other people to help you in this assessment, you must realize that you are the one responsible for this assessment.
Protagonist, bringing outsiders with you on such a sacred occasion is tarnishing the noble royal dignity!"
I see, this is what these guys are protesting! Well——! Although Lin Zheng is not incomprehensible, no matter where the royal family is, there are a lot of stinky rules, even Istria is inevitable! But it turns out that
I still felt very disdainful of such boring attention to detail! At that moment, Lin Zheng curled his lips and turned to Karina and said: "Okay! If you don't let me go, I won't let you go. Just go there alone.
Save these guys from nagging on and on!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Karina rolled her eyes at Lin Zheng angrily, "If you really follow those guys' rules, you will be beheaded!"
Just when Lin Zheng stared for a while, Karina suddenly raised her head and looked at the old men and women in the Senate, and said loudly: "He is not an irrelevant person. According to the ancient goblin nobles
Tradition, he is already my husband, Karina!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately went into an uproar! And everyone in front of Destiny also exclaimed "Wow--"!
After hearing this, Lin Zheng staggered and almost fell down. When he came to his senses, he stared at Karina with wide eyes and said angrily: "When will I become your husband?!
"
Before Karina could answer, the old lady from the Senate asked in surprise: "Karina! You are very likely to be the future emperor of the empire. Your husband is not something you can decide casually, so,
Regarding your husband, you must give an explanation to everyone present!"
After Karina bumped Lin Zheng's belly with flushed cheeks, she looked at the people in the Senate and said: "According to the goblin noble tradition, if an engaged man and woman are killed before they get married, they need to be killed within 20 days.
Re-select an engagement partner within a month and get married within a month! And if the second engagement partner is killed by the same person again, then the unmarried person will be regarded as the partner of the murderer, and it will not change due to any conditions.
This guy has already killed two of my fiancés!"
"What did you say?!" Lin Zheng lowered his head and put his face close to Karina. His round eyes were filled with a look of lunacy. Isn't he crazy? He killed her two fiancés and the results were reversed.
He became her husband. What kind of crazy tradition is this?!
Just when Lin Zheng was staring at Karina like he was crazy, the old lady from the Senate said with surprise: "Is there still this tradition? Oops, I'm too old and my memory is not very good. Wait, I
Check it out!" As she said that, the old lady threw a large book on the table with a bang. After turning two pages, she said in surprise again: "Oh, there really is one!"
The old man next to him craned his neck to take a look, then nodded slowly and said, "I really remember it! It was handed down from the days of the God of Heavenly Works, and it seems quite important!"
Lin Zheng was almost overcome with emotion when he heard this. How could such a crazy tradition be called "very important"?!
"In that case, that's fine!" Another old man nodded, and then looked at Lin Zheng and Karina, "According to tradition, you two are indeed a couple. Since it is Karina
My husband naturally has to accompany Karina to the venue, which is in line with etiquette!"
"Since it complies with the rules, let's continue!" the old lady closed the big book and said, "Come forward and accept your test, Karina!"
As the old lady's voice fell, the solemn and powerful symphony sounded again! Accompanied by the symphony, Karina held Lin Zheng's hand tightly and walked towards the center of the venue. Although Lin Zheng had thousands of alpacas giggling in his heart,
But he could only follow Karina. If he gave up his burden at this time, would Karina still be alive?! But having said that, Lin Zheng still felt baffled by this crazy tradition, and couldn't help but whisper
He asked: "Where did this god... this inexplicable tradition come from?!"
Hearing this, Karina replied in a low voice: "My ancestor fell in love with someone when he was young. Later, they had a quarrel. In anger, that person got engaged to someone else. Then our ancestor couldn't get angry, so he gave him to someone else."
Kill him! As a result, this made the man even more angry, determined to break up with his ancestors, and then got engaged to someone else!"
Lin Zheng bared his teeth when he heard this, "Then the person he was engaged to killed was killed by his old man again?!"
"Yes!" Karina nodded lightly, "The ancestor also knew that that person was fighting against him, so after killing the second person, he apologized honestly, and then, that person, that is, the old man
Grandma forgave my ancestor, and the two of them got married!"
"this one?"
"this one!"
Day! Karina's explanation immediately made Lin Zheng's balls ache, and the alpaca in his heart started to run wildly. Sure enough, there is no sense in idol worship! If it weren't for the old man,
Can the God of Heavenly Works still have such a weird tradition?! Yes, "What if the murderer and the unmarried person have the same gender?" Lin Zheng couldn't help but ask.
"Then you have to get married!" Karina replied very firmly, which made Lin Zheng completely speechless. Sure enough, the whole tradition is just that, crazy!
When Lin Zheng was speechless, Karina had already pulled him to the center of the venue. As soon as the music stopped, Karina gracefully bowed to the surroundings of the venue and caught a glimpse of Lin Zheng still standing straight like a goose.
Then, with a sudden elbow, he hit him in the stomach. When Lin Zheng let out a muffled groan, the couple had completed their bow.
After completing a circle of salutes, Karina faced the direction of the emperor and said loudly: "Meet my great father, the Holy Emperor of the Goblin Empire! I Karina Madoria Kalindor, with the sacred
As the thirteenth princess of the Goblin Empire, she is qualified to be the heir to the empire. This is a great honor for her! However, honor is also a great responsibility for her. She is still young and has little knowledge, so she is afraid that she will not be able to shoulder the responsibility of the empire.
It is a great responsibility to let down the people of the world! I am here to accept the test of the empire's elders and nobles to prove my ability to govern the country. If I fail to pass, I will be ashamed to accept the position of heir to the empire!"
After Karina's words, Lin Zheng woke up with a start, and then looked at Karina in horror. It's incredible that this girl can say such serious words! Tell me honestly, who are you?
fake!
When Karina stepped on Lin Zheng hard, the emperor stood up. Under the gaze of everyone, the emperor raised his scepter, and the majestic voice echoed: "My daughter Karina
!Father is deeply pleased that you have such a serious sense of responsibility! Here, in the name of the Emperor of the Holy Goblin Empire, I agree to conduct the qualification assessment for the heir of the empire!"
"Thank you, Father!" As Karina bent down, there was a burst of hypocritical responses in the venue: "Your Majesty, you are wise!"
After the emperor nodded to the surroundings, he slowly sat down. Immediately, the lights in the venue were fully lit. Suddenly, the entire venue took on a magnificent brilliance. Under this brilliant light, Prince Takla stood again
He stood up, looked at Karina expressionlessly, and said after a moment: "Since you are here now, Karina, can we conclude that you are ready to accept the assessment!?"
"Yes!" Karina nodded confidently, "I have prepared everything and can accept the assessment at any time!"
"In that case, now, the qualification assessment for the heir to the empire has officially begun! First of all, the first project..."
As soon as Takra finished speaking, the ground under Lin Zheng and Karina's feet began to move. Under the attention of everyone, the stage in the center of the venue slowly began to split from the middle, presenting a huge sand table to everyone.
In the field of vision, there are mountains, forests, rivers, lakes, seas, highlands, plains, and tall cities. It has everything you need, and everything looks so real, as if the real world is condensed into this sand table.
Average!
Just when Lin Zheng was admiring the real texture of the sand table, he heard Prince Takla shout loudly: "The first project is to assess the ability to lead an army in war! Although you have conquered a large territory for the empire, but
This is also related to the invincible and powerful troops of our empire! But this time, you need to rely on limited troops to win the war with the battle losses of less than 50% of the troops!"
After hearing this, Karina's expression immediately changed, and she suddenly looked towards the sand table. A military camp with a red flag suddenly appeared in a corner of the sand table. This was the army that Karina could command! Looking at the troops,
Karina immediately laughed out loud! A total of ten thousand troops, four thousand of which are logistics troops. Of the remaining six thousand troops, one thousand are musketeers, three thousand are infantry, and the remaining two thousand,
All Hog Riders!
After seeing the composition of the troops, Karina suddenly glared at Prince Takla, "Uncle is considered a veteran who has been on the battlefield, so my niece has some questions here that she would like to ask. What are the troops of my empire?
Do you have to rely on wild boars as mounts?! Furthermore, when the army travels, 40% of the troops are logistics. This niece doesn't care, why does the logistics force composed of 40% of the troops only have ten days of supplies?!"
Lin Zheng's face turned dark when he looked at the composition of the army. Although he knew that the other party would not let Karina pass the test so easily, he did not expect that the other party's methods would be so shameless! Let Karina take the lead.
The generals of high-tech troops leading the Boar Riders and infantry are already very bullying. With the strength of the Goblin Empire, can they be reduced to the point where they need to rely on the Boar Riders to fight?!
Okay! This Karina is not going to care about it, but with a strength of 10,000, she is only given ten days of supplies, and she is required to win under the premise that the battle loss does not exceed 50%. If the enemy is a group of people who can only throw
Stone monkey, there is nothing wrong with such rationing, but is it possible?!
