The Jiawen clan lived in Dawn Castle. At this time, six people were waiting outside the door. After receiving the notification, they filed in through the gate in a formal manner.
Jarvan III's study is on the upper floor of the castle, and the huge windows make the entire study extremely bright.
The hexagonal room had huge built-in bookcases on all five sides, filled with various tomes. Chai Anping took a glance and felt dizzy just looking at the titles of the books.
Gold patterns are outlined on the windowsill, and magnificent decorations are placed in an orderly manner throughout the room.
The area of this study room alone... is almost as big as Chai Anping's apartment, right?!
Tsk.
In the study, he unexpectedly saw an acquaintance—Simmons!
Simons, who had put on exquisite and luxurious clothes, also looked a little more noble. He sat honestly next to Jarvan III and only had the qualification to observe important political affairs.
This is how Sanshi is cultivating his political literacy.
Carefully looking away, Chai Anping secretly drooled with envy.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
"Quinn, you are back!" Jarvan III happily put down the book in his hand and stood up: "You really brought me good news."
The third generation, who has been surrounded by bad news in recent days, stepped forward to help everyone up, smiling broadly.
He patted each member of the scout team on the shoulder one by one to show encouragement.
"Are you Gracie Shelley?" He came to Chai Anping and looked at it emphatically: "Speaking of which, I also watched your duel on the opening day of the Glory Competition. Well... it was quite interesting."
"Well……"
His first duel... Chai Anping twitched his lips slightly when he heard this, but he quickly bowed and replied: "It is a humble honor to be able to be watched by His Majesty!"
"No wonder Tiana values you so much. Quinn's battle report also said that you took the lead in fighting Culifa's elite team alone. I didn't expect that I was wrong!" He looked at Chai Anping's tall and straight body with satisfaction.
posture.
After walking around, he sat back at the desk again, his face a little more serious, and he began to ask the team about some curious points in the military report.
Of course, it was mostly Quinn who answered. The girl had always shown no fear in the face of the kingdom's supreme ruler, which was something Jarvan III liked very much about her.
Simmons sat obediently, his eyes occasionally meeting with Chai Anping's, and then he moved away tacitly.
About a quarter of an hour later, a waiter suddenly came hurriedly outside the door asking to see him.
Jarvan III's smile suddenly froze.
"Come in!"
The chamberlain hunched her back, ran to him quickly with small steps, and whispered in a low voice.
With his extraordinary hearing, Chai Anping successfully heard what the chamberlain said:
"The demon-seeking army took action again. This time their target was the Sirode family. They captured...and...captured...Archduke Sirode, saying that he was a demon-stained person..."
"..." Jiawen III looked at the chamberlain with dull eyes, and then kicked the desk over angrily: "What did he say?!"
Grand Duke Sirode is so old, and he is also his grandfather!
Is Grantham Sethia crazy!!!
Chai Anping silently glanced at the startled Partridge, "Master, your hometown has been raided! Damn it..."
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, calm down!" The chamberlain trembled three times, but continued to whisper: "Now the Sirode family has joined forces with the families who have been forcibly searched by the Demon Searchers in the past few days to surround the Demon Searcher camp. The situation is extremely critical.
ah!"
"Let Grantham Sethia enter the palace to see me immediately! If a fight breaks out, he will no longer be the commander of the army!"
Jarvan III's rare good mood disappeared instantly. He almost roared and kicked the servant out of the study. His eyes were red - his grandfather was arrested?
Is this still his Demacia?!
He was confused for a moment, and then looked at Simmons aside: "You immediately take my souvenir and take over the Demon Searcher camp. Anyone who resists will be captured on the spot. Make sure that the safety of Archduke Sirode is guaranteed!
"
"Grand Duke Sirode..." Partridge asked in surprise: "What happened to my grandfather?"
"……yes."
Simmons' eyelids twitched slightly, and he had no choice but to take on this chore after being directly called upon.
A large part of the reason why he appears in Jarvan III's study these days is because the recent demon searchers are like crazy, searching the capital for traces of the mage.
Moreover, like a divine help, the hidden mage can always be found in the noble lord's home.
Recently, I don’t know how many “illegitimate children” the family kept secret were drowned or sent out of the city overnight.
Because at first they only provoked some small families, and everyone got the spoils, Jarvan III couldn't say anything... But then Grantham Sethia became more serious, and today he even killed the Archduke of Sirode.
Captured!
A trace of gloom flashed in Simmons's eyes. He always felt that the entire group of demon seekers had become a little strange...
However, after he took office as the Minister of the Fourth Department, he had long lost contact with his original brothers.
"boom!"
Just before he was about to leave, there was a sudden loud noise from the Demon Searcher camp, which even made the huge Dawn Castle tremble.
"What!?"
Everyone went to the window to look, and saw a line of black smoke slowly rising in the direction of the Demon Searcher camp...
"Damn it, gunpowder was used!" Simmons immediately started to rush forward.
"Gulu..."
Chai Anping suddenly swallowed his saliva, things seemed to be getting serious...
The remaining six people in the study were as quiet as a flock of shrinking quails, no one wanted to offend the emperor who was on the verge of an explosion.
"You guys should step back first."
After a long time, Jarvan III waved his hand and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
"It's going to be cold in Grantham," Pickle whispered.
Partridge, on the other hand, was worried that something was wrong with his family. As soon as he came out, he said goodbye to everyone, took his things and rushed home.
"what about you?"
Quinn looked at the others with a solemn expression.
"This conflict is no small matter."
Chai Anping was not the only one who heard the whispers of the chamberlain. Pickle continued: "The nobles have never suffered such a loss, and it is also because of the ban on magic that they have always advocated. The demon searchers have always worn the same clothes as them.
Pants, now suddenly turned against each other...Grantham Sethia is not this kind of person, I feel this matter is a bit weird."
"Anyway, we'd better avoid it as much as possible." Dobin whispered: "Your Majesty must have noticed it, otherwise he wouldn't be so angry."
"It would be best to take this opportunity to solve the mage scourge in our country." Chai Anping suddenly said after hearing this.
"Maybe."
Needham shrugged noncommittally: "I'm really sorry everyone, I have to leave first. The city guard must be under a lot of pressure now, so I have to return to my post quickly."
"Be careful." Everyone nodded in understanding.
"Boom—boom!"
A series of small explosions were heard in the distance. It looked like a riot and the fighting was continuing to escalate!
Needham cursed in a low voice, and hurriedly left Dawn Castle, mounted his horse and rushed to the garrison of the city guard.
Chai Anping was about to leave and quickly went to the Crown Guard Mansion to check on Lux.
Don't let the devil hunter hunt for bargains like this on her head.
However, Grantham Sethia and Tiana are husband and wife after all, and they have always advanced and retreated together in the political arena. They should not drag Crown Guard into the water, right?
Or is it the Crown Guard who is behind all this?!
Chai Anping suddenly paused... It shouldn't be possible, right?!
"boom!"
A strong magic wave suddenly appeared from the ground, and the alchemy magic power was keenly aware of this powerful magic that was almost completed.
"careful!"
He suddenly pounced on the three people around him and pulled them away.
Then there was a violent explosion on the green lawn around them, and tongues of flames flew out from the underground sewers and shot straight into the sky.
"What's going on..." Dobin said angrily with lingering fear in his heart.
"..." Chai Anping frowned and said slowly: "It's a mage, there are countless mages!"
Was it Silas's attack on the palace?
He was shocked and angry - now is not the time when this event should be triggered!
