After Haoran repaired the equipment, he checked the potion in the package again and found that more than half of it was useless. It should be enough to last the whole night. He didn't waste any more time and knocked on the door of the medicine shop and distributed them to Xiaoyun and others respectively.
After receiving the news that they could go to Master Lucos to repair their equipment, they went straight to the palace.
Outside the white palace wall, he saw a large number of soldiers surrounding the entire palace, almost feeling like it was impenetrable.
He saw several familiar generals. They had all appeared in the backyard of the Magician's Guild and were loyal to King Sirras.
Haoran approached with a line of blue characters on his head that symbolized the identity of the palace magician. When they saw him, the soldiers all bowed down and saluted, looking very respectful.
Sure enough, having an official rank is quite useful. Haoran felt a little vain, and his newly promoted official rank actually allowed him to shuttle among the sergeants without encountering any obstacles.
However, what he wanted at this moment was not just pure awe, he had to find an insider to inquire about the battle situation in the palace in front of him.
"Come here." Haoran smiled and hooked his hand at an officer who looked like a squad leader, gesturing for him to take a step closer to speak.
"Master Magician, what are your orders?" The warrior in bronze armor hurriedly stepped forward. It was not easy to win the favor of the court magician.
Haoran glanced at the line of blue characters shining above his head: Baiqi Commander Stern. Well, Baiqi Commander is considered a minor official. I should be able to inquire about the situation.
"What's the situation inside?" Haoran said without any polite words and went straight to the topic.
"Your Majesty, after a night of fierce fighting, most of the palace has returned to the king's hands." Stern replied respectfully.
Being treated with such courtesy by a tall and heroic young officer made Haoran feel even better - it's so cool to be an officer!
"Where is His Majesty Sirras?" he asked next.
"His Majesty the King is attacking Queen Philia's palace with Great Magician Leiwen." Commander Stern paused and explained in detail: "All enemies, including the Queen, are besieged.
Although there are not many people in the palace, there is Chi Feng Wuming leading a group of diehards who are fighting tooth and nail, and they cannot break through for a while."
"So that's it. It seems that Sirlas is not as powerful as imagined." Haoran thought to himself, wouldn't it be enough if he burned down the Queen's Palace instead?
"..." When Stern heard this, he immediately looked at Haoran again with doubtful eyes - why did this court magician criticize His Majesty?
"Well, I'll go take a look." Haoran raised his feet and was about to leave, but stopped again and asked angrily: "How to get to the queen's palace?"
He was originally blind, and besides, he really didn't know where the queen's palace was, so he just had to shamelessly ask again.
"This..." Commander Stern stared at the court magician more and more suspiciously, muttering in his heart - this guy is not a fake, is he? How come he doesn't even know where the queen lives?
He quietly waved his hand back, and several soldiers quietly surrounded Haoran in the middle. Looking at the situation, as long as Stern gave an order, these people would attack the mage who was suspected of being a spy.
"I just took office, and I am very unfamiliar with the terrain of the palace." Haoran noticed the changes in the surrounding situation, and his brows suddenly wrinkled. At this time, he did not want to misunderstand.
"Sir, could you please explain some of the situation in detail?" Stern still addressed him respectfully as "Sir", but the respectful look between his brows had disappeared, replaced by an inquiring look.
Haoran secretly screamed, this matter will definitely be clarified in the end, but if it is really misunderstood, it will be very troublesome to explain.
"I have something urgent, so I'll leave first." He thought that maybe if he found mentor Lei Wen or the king, everything would not be a problem.
"Sir, let's take a step to speak." Seeing that Haoran wanted to leave, Stern thought that he wanted to escape, which further confirmed his idea. He waved his hand, and all the soldiers around him showed their weapons.
"Captain Stern, what do you mean?" Haoran's face darkened, and just as he was about to scold him, a hoarse voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Isn't this Xiaobai? Why, after not seeing him for a whole night, he became a palace magician?"
The voice was very familiar. Haoran quickly turned around and saw Duke Nicholas striding towards him from behind.
"Your Majesty the Duke!" He was overjoyed. Boss Nicholas had arrived just in time. Looking at the situation, he would be arrested as a spy by this vigilant officer a little later.
"You haven't replied to me yet, how come you have become a court magician in the blink of an eye?" The old Duke walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder intimately.
"I completed the task entrusted by His Majesty Sirlas yesterday, so I took up my post on the battlefield." Haoran said, while sideways glanced at the soldiers who were watching eagerly, and said: "It seems that I
The court magician is very incompetent..."
"Who told me what's going on?" The old Duke noticed that the general atmosphere around Haoran was not very good.
"Your Majesty the Duke..." Commander Stern's face turned pale. Seeing that the Duke was so familiar with this magician, it was obvious that he could not be a fake. So there was only one explanation for the current situation - he was guilty of the following, and a big mistake was made.
Problem!
"Forget it." Haoran waved his hand and said casually: "It's just a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Duke Nicholas glanced around. He had met Stern several times. He was a loyal and reliable subordinate. He should not deliberately embarrass Xiaobai.
"Yes, yes." Stern hurriedly walked down the slope, nodded desperately, and secretly gave Haoran a grateful look.
"Well, I'll make it clear next time before I take action. You should step back first." Duke Nicholas was wary in his heart, and it was not convenient to punish his own people for their unintentional mistakes, so he took care of it lightly.
"Yes." Stern felt that his body under the bronze armor was soaked with cold sweat. He secretly said that he was in danger. Fortunately, the palace magician in front of him was so generous. Otherwise, he would have to eat and walk away today.
"See you later." Haoran smiled at the officer. To be honest, this man was quite smart and vigilant. He was a good prospect.
"Thank you, sir." Stern's thanks came from the bottom of his heart, and he looked a little excited.
Seeing that the matter was resolved satisfactorily, Nicholas nodded with satisfaction and asked Haoran: "Are you going in to find Lei Wen or the king?"
"Your Majesty Sirras, well, actually it doesn't matter, anyway, he and my teacher are together right now." Haoran thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, Duke, do you want to go in too?"
He still remembered that during the discussion yesterday, the king was asked to lead a frontal attack, and the two great magisters Lei Wen and Linda led a group of elites to sneak into the palace to assist. As for Duke Nicholas, he was asked to preside over the situation from outside. Now he
Suddenly appearing here, could there be something special happening?
"It's a long story." Duke Nicholas paused, then suddenly gave Haoran a look and motioned for him to follow him.
"Things are in trouble." When they reached a deserted place, the old Duke uttered a sentence with a solemn face: "While we were attacking the palace with all our strength, the Queen attacked the Magician's Guild and captured Yueru."
"Yueru?" Haoran felt that the name seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.
"That's Concubine Yue." Seeing his confusion, Nicholas hurriedly added, "The second prince was seriously injured in the chaos in order to beg his mother and concubine. He is now in a coma. I came to see Lin."
Da or Sirras went back to treat him personally."
It turned out to be the beautiful and gentle imperial concubine. Haoran suddenly understood and frowned: "The queen is really jealous."
"Filia has always acted viciously." Duke Nicholas frowned and said, "She is going to use Yueru to force Sirras to abdicate the throne in favor of the eldest prince."
"Will His Majesty Sirlas give up everything for a woman?" Haoran didn't understand. Historically, legendary monarchs rarely had sentimental people. Could it be that in the game there would be a Duke of Windsor who loves beauty but not the country?
No, the Duke of Windsor can at least be a happy and idle duke if he doesn't become a king. If Sirras abdicates, there will be only death.
"It's naturally impossible for an ordinary woman, but if this woman is the Concubine Yue, it's a different story." Nicholas said in a serious tone: "Sirras has always regarded Yueru as a treasure, not to mention that Yueru is still pregnant with her.
Pregnant. If that bitch Filia really uses her to threaten my infatuated brother, he will most likely do it."
The matter was serious. As a player from the light camp, Haoran did not want to see such a dramatic failure. He asked in a deep voice: "Does His Majesty Sir Rasven know about this matter?"
"We don't know yet. Because the matter is so important, I have to inform him personally." Hearing this, Haoran frowned. This Queen Philia, who had never met anyone before, was indeed not a simple person.
"I don't know yet. The matter is so important that I can only inform him personally." Duke Nicholas' footsteps were obviously heavier than before.'
"The queen has captured Concubine Yue, but she is of great use right now, so she shouldn't harm her immediately." Haoran's mind raced: "If we rescue her before His Majesty the King compromises, wouldn't the matter be solved?"
"Easier said than done? When I rushed to the scene of the incident, I found that the surrounding area was filled with a strong aura of undead. It is estimated that the person who did it came from the underworld. I have no clue at all about this." Nicholas said this with a smile on his forehead.
The wrinkles seemed to be deeper.
"Where did the Queen imprison Concubine Yue?" Haoran asked.
"I guess they took advantage of the darkness and the melee in the palace to sneak the person to her bedroom." Nicholas frowned and said, "It's hard to say what the specific situation is now."
