Little Tyrant Doesn't Want to Meet with a Bad End - Chapter 658
In the room, the black-haired boy frowned slightly as he watched Paul, and a vague figure appeared in his heart.
Lucas Aqiman, this is a lingering name for Roja. Long ago, the emperor of the Austin Empire regarded Roja as a thorn in his eyes and kept Lilian from contacting him. This influence continued until Lilian came to the border and stopped completely.
And this time, at this critical moment of human survival, Lucas once again became a stumbling block for Roja, and started a competition with Shia’s Scepter.
However, unlike Roja, although he is the Emperor of the Austin Empire, it is clear that Lucas did not choose to stand on the side of mankind, and the power he pursued and wanted would never be used by others.
“Lucas has only one purpose, and that is to become a god, but after success, he will not be able to face the savior for mankind. If he is allowed to absorb the power of the scepter first, the final plan is equivalent to falling short. ”
“Well, so we have to solve this interference first.”
After listening to Paul’s explanation, Roja’s face became serious, and he thought for a moment and said:
“But before that, can Lucas really absorb the power in [Xia’s Scepter]? It should be difficult according to common sense? After all, Lucas himself should not be a fallen one.”
Roja who said so was puzzled. If according to Paul and the others, Roja was able to absorb power by relying on the compatibility of Shia, then Lucas relied on the relationship with the savior himself.
But the problem is that although the emperor of the Austin Empire almost never takes action, the breath of the fallen is very obvious. Lucas has been in power for so many years, it will definitely not be the fallen, so how to rely on the savior To absorb?
In that case, he should not be able to absorb the scepter with the strength of the Aqiman clan. However, after listening to Roja’s question, Paul gave an unexpected answer.
“Lucas is indeed not a fallen one, but according to my investigation, he may have an imprint of a fallen one.”
“Engraving? What is that?”
“The engraving of the fall is a taboo study of the Second Age. It is a special ritual during the time when the followers of the Savior are rampant. The original purpose was to gain the power of the Savior without falling, but it later proved that this research failed. .”
Paul, who was explaining, recalled the memory of the past with a bitter face, while Caroline frowned upon hearing the words and explained the specific situation to Roja.
In fact, before the Turin change in the Second Age, mankind’s fear of the savior was far from reaching this level, and it was even considered to be a power that can be used, and it was Aqiman who was most keen to develop this power. A family.
Since the establishment of the empire for hundreds of years, the Aqiman and Alder tribes have cooperated with each other as the two eagles of the empire, creating the prosperity of the ancient Austin Empire, but over time, the Alder family has become more and more powerful. Be jealous of the Aqiman family, especially the emperors of the past dynasties.
Although Aqiman’s elimination mechanism can screen out talents, the victors are often the ones with deep intentions, and any ruler will have a certain degree of fear for powerful forces, especially after the expansion of the empire ceases.
In this case, the Aqiman family’s search for power naturally started, and it went faster and faster, even to the point where they wanted to use the savior and seek skin from the tiger. This is also in the battle between the Alder family and the believers of the savior. One of the reasons why Qiman stood idly by.
“Because of this kind of boring suspicion, our family suffered heavy losses without preparation, and ultimately caused the entire empire to fall into turmoil. It is really foolish.”
“… really stupid.”
Facing Caroline, who was resentful for thinking of the past, Paul nodded and confessed his mistake while pacifying, while Roja asked about the engraving.
“So, where is the engraving failure? What’s the effect?”
“The engraving of the depravity was one of the results of the Aqimans seeking power at that time. They can obtain permission to use the power of the savior as a fallen person, but it will greatly affect people’s emotions. This is what I think Luca Si Ran pointed out the reason for this research.”
“mood?”
“Yes, users will lose their feelings.”
“!”
Hearing Paul’s words, Roja’s golden eyes suddenly shrank, and he suddenly understood Paul’s basis.
Although he has not seen Emperor Lucas directly, Roja has learned about the emperor who ruled the empire from various sources including Lilian, the most detailed of which is the archives of the Holy See.
The one who knows you best is always your enemy. This sentence is at least true in terms of intelligence warfare. Among the information about Lucas in the Church, what impressed Roja most is a paragraph about the characteristics of Lucas. The description and guessing.
Lucas has never shown strong emotional fluctuations in public, and in this case, the guess given by the Holy See is a spell used to maintain absolute rationality.
But now, after listening to Paul’s words, Roja feels that this guess may be only half right. It is indeed the effect of the spell, but it is just a side effect of the price.
“Losing emotions, although not as serious as madness, is too sensible, and losing humanity is equally daunting. It is not a good thing for the Aqimans as the rulers, and it even does more harm than good.”
Shaking his head, Paul said so, giving a very low evaluation of the degenerate engraving, and Roja also understood this.
The emperor is not a general. The management ability is more important than the force value. The deprivation of affection will cause a great distance from other people, and the gap between monarchs and ministers will become larger and larger. In fact, this is the case in the Austin Empire now.
Roja had never figured it out in the past. As the emperor of the Austin Empire, Lucas Aqiman had no children for decades, and he was the only main member of the entire royal family. This situation can be said to be similar to that of Akat’s family. Very dangerous state.
Under such circumstances, ordinary aristocrats would desperately decide marriage, wishing to give birth to a carriage within a generation. However, as the emperor, Lucas has always paid no attention to it, and even started having children under the pressure of the aristocrats.
Now think about it, Lucas’s absence of children for decades should be to ensure that the royal family is the only one, so that with the widely recognized pedigree, even if he and the nobles of the Austin Empire The empire will not be in chaos if the appearance is in perfect harmony.
However, such behavior must not last long. In fact, since the emergence of new members of the Austin Empire thirty years ago, the whole country has begun to divide continuously, and now it is even more divided.
To some extent, the current chaos in the Austin Empire is actually the result of Lucas’ loss of feelings and inability to have cronies.
After understanding this, Roja finally understood the cause of the confusion in the Austin Empire for so many years, and Paul also established his goal.
“Although I don’t know the specific method, it is certain that Lucas can absorb [Shia’s Scepter] and become a god. The Aqimans have been planning this for a long time, so now we must take action.”
“Well, although it is taboo to interfere in its internal affairs, it can’t be managed so much in critical situations.”
Hearing Paul’s words, the expression on the black-haired boy’s face gradually became serious. He stood up and looked at the two people in front of him, and said calmly and firmly:
“I will contact the Headquarters of the Joint Army together with the head of the Antonio Academy, and immediately mobilize all forces to launch an offensive against Lucas.”
————————————————– ———-
In the frontline base of the Kingdom of Scholars, Roja is determined to eliminate the hidden danger of Lucas first. However, at the front-line headquarters of the Austin Empire, the black-haired and purple-eyed girl does not need to order, and already has the idea of attacking.
Looking at the fortress standing on the plain in the distance, Lilian Aqiman frowned slightly, and in the camp not far behind her were a large number of generals under her.
It has been more than half a month since Lilian and Lucas completely broke up. During this period of time, people have continuously escaped from the distant fortress and brought new intelligence to Lilian’s army. In order to quell the civil strife that may affect the human race as soon as possible, they also sent support.
On both sides of Lilian’s garrison, troops from the Holy See have been persuading the defenders to surrender in the name of the Holy See. As the next Holy See, Noel Hizkrit even came to the scene personally to pledge to abandon the troops. Will not be held accountable.
On the other side, it is the army of the United Nations of the Rosette Business. The leader is Charlotte Sorophia. The eldest lady of Rosette is also persuading to surrender, only to use the money to persuade part of the army to surrender, for example The garrison at the gate of the city.
Open the city gate to welcome the coalition troops to enter the city and reward one hundred thousand gold coins. This is all Charlotte’s “persuade to surrender” content.
It has to be said that although the power of the Shia religion is very strong, the power of money is also extraordinary. In fact, since Charlotte issued a reward, the deserters in the city have drastically reduced.
Obviously, the lack of deserters is not because the governance level in the city has risen, but the active people have already figured it out and are ready to rally and make a fortune.
Such a situation made Noelle who persuaded him to surrender very helpless, but even so, she couldn’t let Charlotte go back, because Rosse came here not only to offer a reward, but also to assist in the siege of the city.
Rosé’s long-range attack spells are extremely developed. They are good at defending the city, even under the impact of the Austin Empire for a hundred years. The city will naturally be there.
Of course, in addition to the powerful firepower suppression, the Rosses have no psychological burden compared with Lilian’s troops. It is better to say that it is a good opportunity for public revenge, and they must go all out in a fight.
In any case, in terms of both psychological and strength, Lilian’s coalition army has already occupied the advantage. The original offensive plan was only a few days later, but everything was disrupted by the drastic changes caused by the savior a day ago.
After discovering that the situation was not right that night, Lilian, unlike the kings of the source-level 1 races of the other coalition forces, once went to the Tucker Plains alone for reconnaissance.
[Ten Cities] The near-absolute protection gave Lilian the ability to protect herself, and the many legendary legions of the Ancient Austin Empire allowed her to become an army by herself, and the switch between groups and monomers could be within one second. Completed, so Lily did not encounter any obstacles in the safety process.
With this guarantee of strength, the girl went deep all the way until she saw the huge city on the horizon, and finally stopped. It was precisely when she saw that scene and was greatly shocked, Lilian suddenly remembered that she was in the end. At one meeting, Lucas’ attitude of not caring about anything, and said pursuit.
Power and eternity, such words appearing in Lucas’s mouth can be said to be rare, but it is also because of this that impressed her. In the past, Lilian thought that she understood the meaning of these words, but she was independent of the plain. When she went up and looked into the distance, the girl realized that she might have misunderstood.
Not long after Lucas abandoned the Austin Empire, the savior’s resurrection happened. This is really hard to explain by coincidence, and what he said about power and eternity is probably not simple.
After understanding this, Lilian immediately returned to the front line and began to observe the movements of Lucas, but the result was very strange.
Whether it was the breath of the savior sweeping the east, or the sporadic appearance of the fallen and causing commotion, Lucas did not say anything about this shocking incident, even the reconnaissance troops who went out of the city to check the situation. nothing.
Such isolation seems to be autistic, which is really hard to understand. After all, let alone other circumstances, the magic element cannot be blocked by the wall, and what is even more strange is that the entire city has been congested for more than a day. , No one has ever walked out, not even a deserter at night.
Lucas, as a potential fallen person who has a relationship with the savior, may not care about this upheaval, but his soldiers are unlikely to remain in the hands of mankind during the life and death of mankind, especially after discovering fallen ones wandering the plains. Why not come out?
In other words, what could be the reason that prevented them from coming out?
Such questions tortured Lilian’s nerves and made her involuntarily think of some bad things. After a long time of struggle, the black-haired and purple-eyed girl also understood that it was time to make a choice.
“Offensive.”
After looking at the silent fortress for a long time, Lilian gave the final order in a soft voice, and the camp not far away immediately broke out an exciting noise. Many generals of the Austin Empire returned to the troops that had been prepared, and Lilian was next to Lilian. The communications officer is contacting the friendly forces on the other two sides.
I have to say that after more than half a month of siege, both Lilian’s troops and the reinforcements of Noelle and Charlotte can’t wait, especially after the threat of the fallen, so The entire process of dispatching troops was exceptionally smooth.
In the morning sun, the horns rang across the plains, led by the ancient Austin Empire siege equipment forces summoned by Liliane, as many as 200,000 troops began to line up and slowly advance.
Behind the siege equipment in the front row is the elite army of the Fortress of Neuss under Lilian’s command, second to none in terms of loyalty and strength, and behind it is Rosse’s long-range troops, flanking and the last is St Mestre The Knights of the Church and the Conjurers.
The mixed forces that gathered the advantages of the three great powers proceeded in an orderly manner, pressing like a black cloud toward the city in front. Lilian, Noelle, and Charlotte, who had cooperated in the scorched earth battle, had a lot of each other. The tacit understanding makes the front very unified.
Sufficient preparations, tacit cooperation, everything is telling everyone present, this will be a devastating battle, but as the army continues to advance, people’s expressions have begun to gradually change.
At a distance of two kilometers, the group of conjurers behind began to raise their staffs to gather their spell power, preparing to launch a bombardment towards the tower. However, they were prepared to use the spells that interfered with the curse of the enemy city, but there was no trace of being touched at all. Such a situation made Noelle a little puzzled.
At a distance of one kilometer, the various spells of the Rosse Commercial United Nations began to emit dazzling light, and preparations for firepower coverage were ready, but there was no goal in the dead city head. The brown-red-haired girl saw this deeply. Frowned.
At a distance of five hundred meters, with the vision of an extraordinary person, the soldiers in the front row were able to see clearly the weapon configuration on the city wall, but behind the defense equipment, there was no trace of the enemy at all.
“…”
The distance of five hundred meters was quite close to the Xi’a fighters, and they had even reached an area that was unfavorable to the defender. However, even so, there was no trace of the enemy.
Such a weird situation caused all the soldiers present to fall into silence, while the black-haired and purple-eyed girl widened her eyes slightly after a moment of contemplation, thinking of what it was like, and immediately issued an order for the whole army to attack.
After the order was issued, the speed of the entire army’s advance suddenly accelerated, the siege curse roared, and a steady stream of soldiers rushed up to the city. Below, the unguarded city gate was hit by the old man, the army god, Leiton, who took the lead. Knock away.
“boom!”
Amid the roar of the collapsed gate, Lilian entered the city first, and then saw a scene that she would never forget.
Under the early morning sun, there was no sound in the city fortress. Soldiers fell to the ground as if they were asleep. They were still holding weapons, but their bodies were already cold and the fire of life had been extinguished.
Corresponding to their disappeared life and curse power, one part of the city fortress had a strong curse response, as if a large-scale ceremony had just been held, and Lilian and others quickly rushed to the scene and entered the goal. It is the traces of large-scale space spells, and the space rifts that have faded away.
At the other end of the rift, the wandering fallen figure is looming, and the tall buildings are weather-beaten but the glory of the year is vaguely visible, and for this scene, Lilian is no stranger to this scene. It turned into a nightmare city.
Imperial capital.
