When the Dragon Realm fell into a fiery predicament, the Bayer Capital, separated by a wall, this ancient capital that had gone through countless years, fell into silence, or should be said to be a kind of man-made purge. ◇↓
Different from the silence in the past, after the defeat on the Eastern Front, the royal knights in the royal capital went on a rampage and imposed martial law and curfew on the entire city. Those princes who took the opportunity to cause trouble were dragged to the streets one by one and beheaded in public. They seemed to have changed their jobs.
The good old "Scorpion Emperor" Oros XIII once again showed the world his viciousness.
"Helent will become a new generation of emperors."
When the Eastern Front was defeated and the situation was turbulent, the old emperor withstood all pressure and reiterated his opinions to the countrymen and great lords.
Oppose in person? Kill.
Talking behind your back? Kill.
The prince colluded with the fief lord? Kill him.
Just complaining to servants, relatives and friends in your own mansion? Same, kill.
The old emperor who always had a smile on his face, the kind old man who could smile even when he was assassinated, was just sipping tea in his study, saying "kill" one by one with a smile, but he was equally crazy.
The royal knights also silently performed one killing mission after another, even if it was to hang children under ten years old on the city wall, even if it would crush the knight's honor and spirit under their feet.
"Anyone who questions Helent's succession will be killed without mercy, regardless of status, age, or merit."
This is the will of the old emperor, and the royal knights silently carried out this will, even though the Bayers could not understand the old emperor's sudden crazy behavior, and could not look directly at the sudden killing. Especially recently due to collusion with the prince
The massacre of the great lord Proton has caused the great nobles on the border to fall into rage.
Seeing that this is going on. If the Holy War Alliance and the Empire of the Undead don't attack, Bayer will start civil strife first. What on earth is the wise old emperor doing in the past? Is he destroying the empire he built in his lifetime?
Even the normally neutral dragon knight standing next to Helent could not understand the old emperor's sudden madness, but due to the loyalty of the knight's spirit, he could not stop it. But everyone knew that this was not normal and could not last long.
I'm afraid that even if Helent succeeds in succeeding at this rate, as long as the old emperor falls, the crazy killings, backlash and revenge caused by oppression will bring him to a dismal end.
The fall of Miracle Hand, while making the world marvel, feel sad and helpless, also did Helent and Bayer a big favor.
The jihadist coalition forces, which were increasingly becoming a deteriorating cancer, were stopped, and the irresistible will of the God of Holy Light was stopped. Even if it was only for a short moment, Estrada used his own sacrifice to win the victory of mortals.
You also lost the imminent threat of the sword.
"...This should calm down the old emperor."
But some things exceeded everyone's expectations. Not only did the old emperor not stop, but he intensified.
Those who take advantage of the crisis to drive up prices and hoard goods should be killed.
Anyone who has a close relationship or kinship with a feudal noble? Kill them.
Anyone who has done nothing, but has a high position of power and may have an impact on the future succession of Helent? Kill.
He looked kindly at the old emperors whose adopted sons had been fighting each other for twenty years, but still said the word "kill" each and every one with a smile, watching the imperial capital flow into rivers of blood.
Even after Helent, another party involved in the incident, ran over to argue with him, he still didn't change much, but Helent himself stayed behind closed doors.
"...If Bayer wants to survive in the future, Helent can only inherit the throne. As for how he came to the throne, it doesn't matter at all. As for myself...haha, just wait and see."
Only a few people in the entire country can approach Oros's study and listen to him slowly describing his thoughts.
At this time, the old emperor was listening to the report from the spy leader and knight commander.
"... Judging from the intelligence collected by our spies, Duke Cafe and Count Bolan have postponed the integration of private soldiers because they are unable to figure out your current purpose. They seem to be worried that if they become the standout, they will be regarded as your
The primary goal, but some things are no different from what we predicted in the past. As long as you... you 'leave', they will definitely rebel, but now it is just suspended."
"Oh, those old guys. Forget it, how is the daily trade situation in the country? Are prices still about twice as high?"
"It's very good. After a lot of those profiteers died, the ones who came up are now much more stable. They have dropped from the peak of 25 times to 13 times. Coupled with your high-pressure policy and the personal letter of His Highness Hai Lunte,
Promise, have most of them secretly pledged allegiance to His Highness? As long as they pull out their minions, what can merchants with low status do? At least there will be no problem in a short period of time."
"My other boys who don't live up to expectations?"
"All those who may pose threats have been executed, and the remaining ones have announced their dissolution of relations with the Bayer royal family. All princes are under surveillance. But corresponding to this is your reputation... Some people have already called you Bai.
dragon."
"White dragon?"
"...the food-eating white dragon."
Oros nodded but did not ask further questions. He did not even look at the information. He just lowered his head and drank tea. For him who has abandoned everything, such slander means nothing to him. What he is about to do next will be even more outrageous.
I can't say for sure that I will become the number one tyrant and fool in Bayer's history, but for the sake of the "big plan", the incomprehension and slander from outsiders mean nothing.
The old man just closed his eyes slowly and did not ask anything again. Everyone else retreated knowingly. When the study fell into silence again, the three people in the secret room came out. In a sense, this
These three people are now the core layer of Bayer.
Pope Emoyer I of the Southern Church once served as Bayer's palace steward. He was Oros's life-and-death brother and his most trusted person. However, what he controlled was the entire Southern Church and Bayer's religious power.
"……Thanks for your hard work."
"Haha, it's better than expected. The church is still troublesome for you. There is the sacrifice of the miraculous hand.
At this time, the old Pope Emoyer also looked tired. The debut battle that the Southern Sect had given high hopes had suffered a huge blow. If Estrada's sacrifice hadn't stabilized people's hearts, I'm afraid the Southern Sect would have had big problems.
Another old mage wearing a purple violet cloak is called "The Fool". He is also the president of the Bayer Magician Guild, but he was extremely low-key in the past, and few people saw his true face. At this time, he also revealed his true face.
His face was that of a silver-haired old man with nothing special about him, but if the heresy judges of the Holy Church saw it, all the mad dogs would probably come out in force.
But if Roland were here, I'd probably have a lot of room to communicate with him. Yes, he is Thrace, the mad mage Thrace, the fool who "knows too much but still tells it."
"On the side of the Mage Guild, we still need to communicate with the Kingdom of Mage. I'm afraid it's too much trouble for you to worry about. We asked you to come back against your oath. And..."
"I know, needless to say, some things are destined to be inescapable. Since you are all risking your life, how can I back down? It's just... It's a pity that Estrada was forced to
When I swore to become a hermit, I never thought that this day would come to me."
The old mage, who was regarded as a madman, had neat and shiny silver hair, and his gorgeous robes were rare among mages to be neat and straight. At this time, thinking of his old friend's final fate, Thrace shook his head, with a look of unbearable expression.
"What a pity, what a pity, what a pity."
In the end, he could only make this evaluation.
"Teacher, my condolences. We are all on the same journey. In a sense, he just took the first step. This should be something to be happy about..."
Perhaps not many people know that Oros once studied in the Cloud Tower when he was young, and even became a disciple of Thracian, the reclusive magician at that time, with the help of caring people.
"...Your Majesty Oros."
And the last person approached, but it was not a Bayer at all, but...
"Time is up."
On Lilith Milan's arm, the original dazzling brilliance of the emerald has begun to dissipate, and the cracks are gradually expanding on it. Soon, this gem of gemstone cat's eye green worth ten thousand gold will become worthless residue.
.
And this special magic gem processed by gemology is a pair of twins. One of them is destroyed and the other one is also destroyed. This causal connection can break through all blockades. It is an extremely rare and precious communication device. The finished product
It takes a massive amount of gold coins to form at least half a knighthood, and the ability to use such a one-time communication device is enough to illustrate the seriousness of the incident at hand.
And when the emerald in front of him turns into waste, there is only one possibility. Roland in the dragon world crushes another gem, and the whole "big plan" will be launched by Oros in front of him.
At this time, Lilith Milan is not only the spokesperson of Roland and the Church of Law. The familiar gorgeous palace women's clothing and royal emblem undoubtedly illustrate the fact that she has returned to the Bayer royal family!
"Lilith...sister, I'm sorry to trouble you, but until Helent truly matures, as the only pure royal family of the Bayer royal family, please temporarily serve as its regent."
Lilith Milan... No, it should be said that the eldest princess and regent Lilith nodded. If possible, she did not want to get into this trouble at all, but the person in front of her persuaded her with her own ideas and sacrifices.
She, made her feel that at this point in time, if she couldn't do anything, I'd be sorry for her deceased relatives.
Looking around, the old emperor sighed. He knew that this might be the last day he would see this study and his friends.
"...I didn't expect that after enduring it all my life, I still have to endure it. You said that I am not a qualified emperor."
"Of course, my Majesty. Without you, there would be no Bayer today. Maybe the night will be very long, and maybe countless mad dogs will come out to bite your corpse, but the dark clouds cannot cover the sun forever. In the end, your reputation for wisdom will be
will spread across this land again."
The old pope, the old butler in the past bowed slightly, but there were tears in his squinted old eyes.
"Oros, why bother with the opinions of those fools, I am always proud of you."
Thres, who was not good at words, paused and nodded in a positive tone.
"I know you don't care about these false names, but I do think you are amazing, even more amazing than me."
The old emperor smiled happily after being affirmed by his mentor and old friend. Maybe the world would not be able to understand his choice, but it is enough to have a confidant in life. It is enough for him to have the understanding of these two relatives.
"...That's enough. For the sake of the mortal world, let me destroy all the dragon gates."
The gate to the dragon world? Yes, the gate to the dragon world. If all the gates leading to an alien plane have all the dimensional coordinates lost, that alien plane will also lose traces in the eyes of the main plane and be destroyed.
All the gates to the dragon world also mean that the dragon clan will lose its three major gathering places, and it also means that the entire main plane will lose contact with that alien plane.
This is simply impossible in an ordinary plane. After all, there are countless scattered connections. However, in order to control this plane, the Dragon Clan has also maintained all dimensional gates and transmission points, and that
All three transfer points are in Bayer! They are guarded by dragon knights and dragon clan... Yes, Yi Wenli is one of the guards and the strongest guard. Obviously, the dragon clan chose the wrong person.
It will take a lot of time to re-establish a connection with an alien plane, at least two or three years. However, the Titan's recovery is imminent. Once the Dragon Clan loses its reinforcements, it means that all the Dragon Clan living in the Dragon Realm will face death. This is definitely beyond the scope of the entire Dragon Clan.
The dragon clan expected that the dragon's wrath would inevitably come, and the reason for choosing Helent as the next emperor may be far simpler than expected. It was just because he with half-dragon blood might be accepted by the dragon clan and save the country.
As for this person who committed such an incomprehensible crime, he will naturally become the target of revenge from the Dragon Clan. Even because of "Roland and the Absolute Gentlemen Alliance mercenary group trapped in it", the northern countries will also fall out with Bayer, and the most dangerous
, but the Dragon Clan is under the anger of being betrayed. If they are not willing to just use Oros to vent their hatred, then the entire Bayer may usher in the end of destruction.
But at the risk of imminent destruction, Bayer and Oros could not get any benefits from committing such evil deeds. On the contrary, the Dragon Clan, who were originally allies, would become mortal enemies, and the northern countries, who were originally allies, would, at least on the surface, become their sworn enemies.
Will become a "mortal enemy", then, what is his purpose? Just to let the Dragon World become a hunting ground for Titans and let Bayer get rid of this time bomb? How stupid and short-sighted is this? Oros will become the most powerful person in history.
Stupid emperor.
"A fool? Oh, it's really fitting, mentor. Maybe I will become the 'Fool King' in the future."
"No, others think I am a wise man. I just want to remind myself that I am just a fool who thinks he is smart. But you have seen too clearly and too far, and that is why you are about to be regarded as stupid by the fool. On the contrary,
It is proof of your wisdom."
Perhaps, for those who are thoughtful, letting a stupid conspiracy fail in the sun and letting oneself be hanged on the gallows is just to hide a more hidden conspiracy.
"In the mortal world, it's a pity that I have no chance of seeing him with my own eyes."
Oros, who was mumbling, couldn't help but think of the deep conversation he had with Roland some time ago. At that time, the old emperor said this.
"Roland, actually, I have always liked your sentence in the teachings of the Southern Sect, 'This world belongs to mortals, and those high-altitude gods are just hypocritical fanatics'..."
When one party made its position clear and opened its heart, communication between the two parties became much easier. Even Roland himself was surprised by the other party's abilities and goals, and immediately concluded a blood covenant with him.
After talking in secret all night, Oros handed over the plan that had been prepared for more than ten years to Roland, and Roland improved it again based on his plan. Finally, he had the so-called "big plan".
"A big plan? He is indeed the strongest conspirator in Bayer in the past three hundred years. He really dares to think about it. But if this plan is really successful, I am afraid it is not wrong to call him the wisest king in thousands of years."
This was the evaluation Roland gave to Oros at that time. At this time, Oros, the wisest king in the millennium, who was destroying his reputation step by step and handing his neck to the guillotine, did not hesitate.
Put yourself on the gallows without any regrets or timidity.
