The imperial capital, the castle town, outside the secret stronghold.
Thousands of fine knights and people who could escape retreated. It was obvious that the Grand Duke of the North made the decision to ignore the financial adjutant. Looking at the empire today, there are only a handful of people who can not give Ernest face like this. As a relative of Ernest, Finance Adjutant Gozer never imagined that he would be given up one day.
Porus carries a huge special iron can on his back and holds a spray gun. The Teigu Purgatory Summons Lubigand can spray flames that cannot be extinguished with water. It can also spray magma from a long distance. Its trump card is a large-scale self-destruction. .
When fighting the enemy alone, Purgatory Summons does not show much power, but on the battlefield it is enough to bring despair. This is an anti-military Teigu.
The forty-eight Teigu are actually a whole, such as the March of the Dead to make up for high-end combat power, Gaia's foundation to sneak behind enemy lines, military music dreams to boost morale, flying thousands of miles to detect enemy movements, Murasame's assassination of high-level officials, etc. Only when they are all brought together can they be reproduced. With extraordinary combat prowess at the peak of the empire, the Teigu Users were initially regarded as royal guards in a sense.
The huge fire snake rushed out of the jet gun and scattered like water when it hit the secret stronghold. Half of the street was engulfed in blazing flames. The hot air waves kept rolling, and the people in the distance couldn't help but panic.
Jiang Yuan looked at the purgatory-like scene in front of him. It seemed that the flames caused by the Teigu Purgatory had sputtering properties. This was very meaningful in legion operations, at least it could severely damage morale.
In other words, it would be a waste if Porus died in vain. At the very least, he should not die in a separate battle between Teigu users. The original Burning Troops is where he can play his greatest role.
"Porus, stay back."
"clear."
In the majestic orange flames, an old man with gray hair and wrinkles on his face walked out. The crimson arc protected him from the erosion of the high temperature. His steps were firm and his eyes were resolute.
"Grand Duke of Midgard, this is the first time we meet. I am the only remaining Norfolk. I want to ask you about what happened back then." Norfolk said. He has poured all his vitality into the Crimson Ode. Today, Night is the night of revenge.
"What happened back then? I only knew that someone would betray you. Either your father killed your brother, or your brother killed your father. The specific circumstances at that time are clear in hindsight."
"Then why can't you explain?"
"Because I don't have time to pay attention to a bunch of dead people."
Norfolk: “…”
The Grand Duke must have had a smooth life when he was a child, and he never got beaten for having such a bad mouth.
Jiang Yuan said calmly: "I can tell you frankly that there must be someone behind the rebellion, but it is not important because I will not let you go, and I have no interest in the truth back then."
Hearing this, Norfolk raised the dark red spear, gathering the vitality stored by generations of ancestors and all of himself. He was confident that this blow would not even be able to withstand the double walls of the empire. Of course, it was only this time. As a price, his Life span has come to an end.
A thick dark red light beam was fired from the tip of the gun. The fine arc near the light beam caused bursts of thunder. The ground cracked, the earth and rocks shattered, and the destructive momentum echoed around. The light beam hit the enemy, and then hit the enemy without any hindrance. Pass through and pass through several streets.
Jiang Yuan's upper body had completely disappeared, and the people and soldiers fled in all directions. Lesu's expression in the distance did not change. In his eyes, since the Lord is willing to take the risk personally, he must have sufficient confidence, although he does not know How to live without the upper half of his body, but his intuition told him that the adult was not dead.
Norfolk leaned on the dark red spear, feeling tired all over his body. Midgard occupied all the inheritance of the old duchy. As the one who benefited the most, he was also the most suspected of manipulating what happened in the first place. He made no mistake in killing the other party.
Suddenly, Norfolk opened his eyes wide and saw that not far ahead, the enemy's disappeared upper body had regrouped, as if the destruction just now was just in vain, but the chaos around him told him that he was not hallucinating.
Jiang Yuan twisted his neck, confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his body, and then rode forward. The secret skill of Teigu, March of the Dead, and the Eighth Room is called the Resurrection of the Dead. Simply put, it can avoid death. It can only be used once a day. The level of strength is Mokobotemo is comparable to Esdeath. One is resurrected from the dead and the other is frozen in time. Both require the holder to be in perfect harmony with the Teigu.
And someone who has died many times but still moves freely is undoubtedly the most suitable holder of the eighth room in history.
"Can you even do this kind of thing?" Norfolk's smile was slightly stiff. He knew that the Duke of Midgard was very strong and had many powerful dolls, but no one had ever been able to use the Eighth Room's secret skill before, even if it was There are no relevant records of the Millennium Family.
The long knife pierced Norfolk's heart, black and purple light shone, and Jiang Yuan once again obtained a new doll.
The crimson doll's life is almost exhausted, and it stands to reason that it cannot exert much combat effectiveness. However, as long as it is transformed through alchemical surgery, it can be used at least a few times.
…
Ten days later, the imperial meeting was held again, but this time there were only four participants, Ernest, Esdeath, Bude and Jiang Yuan.
The little emperor had been having so much fun recently that he had completely lost interest in government affairs. One hundred and twenty beauties from the southwest foreign ethnic groups competed for beauty, and their activities in the palace occupied most of his time.
"Today we will mainly discuss three things. The foreign nations from the northwest have invaded the border and have already conquered the border fortress counties. We need to suppress the rebellion. The question is who will go. The initial estimate of the enemy's size is around 200,000. Judging from its size, It’s already all out,” Ernest said.
The result is definitely not him, because Midgard and Bude will not let him control the military power. If Bude is the only one, he may be able to use tricks, but with the powerful right minister, the possibility of success is slim.
"I need to protect the palace." Bude said, protecting the emperor's personal safety is his first responsibility.
"Then leave it to me." Esdeath crossed her arms and said, just in time to adjust her mood. The hunter army lost two generals in the first battle, which made her very unhappy.
"Your Second Army headquarters is still at the northern border. It will take at least one and a half months to go south to the imperial capital. There is no time. You can only lead the elite elites to go there and put down the rebellion." Ernest said regretfully, refusing at first Esdeath led his headquarters back because he was afraid that the other party would be disloyal, but now it has become a problem.
"Can today's central army still be called elite?" Esdeath smiled with a hint of ridicule. Before and after the Blood Moon Change, the ten central armies had gone through many twists and turns, and their combat power had dropped off a cliff.
"No matter what, they are still a brave force, they just need time to improve, and the framework is still there." Bude retorted.
