Mauldin returned to the room and sat on a chair with an angry look on his face, "Damn it, you dare to recruit guards without telling me."
"Does she think she is still the same princess as before?"
"But how did the princess come into contact with him? It was like he suddenly appeared in the palace."
"What do these soldiers do for a living? A big talker appeared next to the princess, and they didn't even notice him. What a bunch of losers."
"His strength is not weak either. It seems it's time to use those reformed warriors."
"Where is Parker now?"
Mauldin looked at the guard behind him and asked.
"Lord Mauldin, Ke Pike just returned to the kingdom not long ago."
"Help me find Kepike."
"yes"
Hearing Mauldin's words, the soldier responded and went out to look for Kepike.
After a while!
A short, rather older, middle-aged man appeared in front of Mauldin. Although the man was not tall, he was very energetic and his eyes revealed the light of wisdom.
Wearing a white coat, he looked like a researcher, followed by a young-looking man.
"Kepike, how is the research progress on transforming warriors?"
Mauldin looked at Kepike with a serious face and said.
"Lord Mauldin, the research work on transforming warriors has almost been completed. We put into experiments a few days ago and have successfully transformed a warrior."
Kepike looked at Mauldin respectfully and said.
"Oh, the transformation has been completed. Okay, bring him back to me later. I want to use him."
Hearing Kepike's words, Mauldin felt happy, and then a chill appeared in his eyes, "Princess's bodyguard? Let's see if you can survive tonight."
Mauldin's mind had already begun to imagine the scene where Jiang Feng was torn apart by the reformed warriors.
"Okay, you go down!"
"Yes, Lord Mauldin."
Kepike lowered his posture, responded respectfully, and then walked out of Mauldin's room.
After walking out of the room, the next moment he left the room, Kepike's expression immediately changed, from being respectful to full disdain, "A sergeant major of a kingdom really regards himself as a person."
Hearing Kepike's words, the young man behind him asked curiously: "Master Kepike, I have never understood that with the power we have, it is not difficult to overthrow the Christian Kingdom."
"Why go in a big circle and help Mordin kill the king first?"
"Gaius, you are too young. The relationship here is not that simple."
Looking at Gejus who looked confused, Kepike showed a hint of pride on his face.
"Although the Christian Kingdom is only a small kingdom, it is also one of the countries that joins the World Government. If we want to rule the Christian Kingdom by force, the World Government will definitely send the navy to sanction us."
"The king's prestige is too high. If we attack the king directly, we will undoubtedly start a war. Even if we assassinate the king, a princess will succeed and take control of the country."
"But it's different when we help Mordin kill the king. Mordin has control of the army, and he can control the entire kingdom in a short time without making a sound."
"And after that, it's the most critical step."
As he spoke, Kepike's eyes flashed.
"Afterwards, we helped the princess eliminate Mauldin. When the princess was most helpless, we helped her. We will definitely gain the princess's gratitude and trust."
"Then relying on the trust of the princess, I cannibalize the entire Christian Kingdom and make him mine."
At this time, Kepike had already walked out of the palace, looking at the splendid palace with greed in his eyes.
...
evening!
Kepike took a boat and came to an island not far from the island where the Kingdom of Christine was located.
The area of this island is the same as that of the Kingdom of Christine, but there are no residents on this island, and there are only some soldiers guarding the perimeter of the island.
After landing on the island, Kepike came to an abandoned ruins.
It was originally an abandoned ruin, but it was renovated many years ago and turned into a large laboratory. The laboratory is full of experimental equipment, and the thick test tubes are filled with strange liquids.
Many researchers are busy.
Kepike walked up to everyone and looked at the man lying in the strange liquid in the test tube and asked.
"Did you make it?"
Hearing Parker's question, a researcher said: "I'm sorry, Lord Parker, there has been no progress in the experiment since the transformation into a defective modified warrior."
"At present, we have mastered the technology of transforming defective products, but we have not gained much yet from semi-finished products and perfect products."
Hearing the researcher's answer, Kepike's face darkened. He also knew the difficulty of this technology.
"Then study quickly. I don't want to wait twenty years."
"It's Master Kepike."
After asking about the current situation in the laboratory, Kepike returned to his room.
"It took twenty years to complete the transformation technology of defective products. It is truly a technology left over from ancient times."
"I remember that a small country appeared on this island more than four hundred years ago. Was this ruin left by them, or was it in earlier antiquity?"
Kepike took out a box from the table in front of him, opened the box, and looked at the devil fruit in the box, his eyes full of greed.
"This is the most precious thing in this ruins. Even ancient kingdoms have to treasure the Devil Fruit, which shows how powerful and precious it is."
Kepike suppressed the greed in his heart and did not eat the Devil Fruit in his hand immediately. "I have endured it for so many years, and this is not enough."
"When I first came to the ruins, I only got incomplete experimental data, otherwise I would have researched and developed the perfect transformation technology long ago."
"After all the transformation techniques are completed, you can decide whether to eat this Devil Fruit or not! After all, eating Devil Fruit will make you afraid of sea water and leave defects in your body!"
"But everything is difficult at the beginning. With the technology to transform defective products, I believe it won't take long to complete the research on perfect products."
"More than twenty years of research have paid off. Even if you only master the transformation of defective products, you can trade with other countries or big pirates."
"The most important thing now is to control the entire kingdom. Mauldin really hopes you will show a look of despair."
Kepike looked at the palace in the distance with a sinister smile.
...
In the palace of Kingdom Christine, in Princess Celica's room.
"You are not allowed to sleep in my room today."
At this time, Celica looked at Jiang Feng with a warm and angry look on her pretty face.
"Why, didn't you sleep here as well yesterday?"
Jiang Feng looked at Celica with a strange look on his face. Although he knew it was a bit inconvenient, running from the palace to the town was too troublesome and he would not do anything to her.
"You angered Mauldin today. I guess he will never let you go. Even if he doesn't kill you, he will still teach you a lesson."
"If you die, who can I get my 500 million Baileys from?"
After saying that, Jiang Feng lay on the sofa again and ignored Celica.
"you......"
Seeing that the man in front of her was sleeping in her room again, Celica looked at Jiang Feng with a hint of anger in her beautiful eyes.
