Chapter 383: The Emperor

The throbbing of energy waves is like an invisible string, quietly plucking in the world of consciousness. Ethereal, quiet, like the unsettling blue water. David hadn't felt this way for a long time, and he didn't feel a single message from the material world in the energy world.

As a hypnotic potential person who is already level seven, this is almost impossible.

Every information is energy, and insight into the flow of information is the instinct of all hypnotic superpowers. It's easier for them than breathing. Hypnotists like David are able to capture, shield, modify, simulate, and even falsify any information flowing in the world of energy and consciousness on the order of an order of astronomical units.

It can be said that as long as David Duran wants to, he can know everything and do anything. And when he couldn't feel any energy fluctuations, it could only be said that at least someone with the same level of superpower was deliberately isolating the transmission of energy. Non-hypnotic superpowers are always so rough in their methods on the Black Prison, they can't completely separate the information they want to isolate from the rest of the information, so they have to isolate all the information, they can't couple the energy fluctuations they want to couple, so they have to couple the entire energy field together.

Nothing is happening that doesn't need to be blocked, but only what is happening is necessary to isolate, just like now.

David threw one last glimpse at the railing where Anthony had just stood, and the filaments of energy retracted from the depths of the room behind him. At this moment, David Duran's heart is as ethereal, quiet, and unrippling as the energy world here. He seemed to have returned to the state of mind of thirteen years ago, on the vague and distant gray planet, when he walked into the gray curtain of death with the energy whip of thunder and lightning. This wonderful feeling almost made him forget the embarrassment of Gu Hanhan abandoning him again, just like Lin Xiao said. Now, he thought, the time is just right!

The guests at the banquet whispered like spring silkworms nibbling on mulberry leaves, exchanging glances with each other, looking at him in an invisible way. David thought a little funny: "The headline of the "Knight Street Daily", Gu Hanhan is on it again. ”

......

Prime Minister Justin's somewhat lengthy speech finally ended, and an elegant and enthusiastic court dance began in the center of the ballroom, and the guests began to walk around, openly taking advantage of the opportunity to dance with each other. Seiffert XI, the Emperor of Ogra, did not shy away from it and walked straight towards David.

"His Royal Highness the Duke. "At the forefront was the Emperor's Minister of the Sealβ€”a eunuch and a courtier, as we all know. On behalf of the Emperor, he said to the Duke of Britta and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor congratulates you, and may the name of Britta prosper for generations to come, and never be broken." His Majesty intends to invite His Excellency David Duran, and I wonder if His Royal Highness the Duke can recommend him. ”

The young Duke of Britta opened his mouth and was about to speak, but was suddenly preempted by Philippe. The cynical heir of the Theodore family stepped forward in front of David, ignoring the traditions of the golden banquet and the etiquette of the secular world, and casually interjected: "Does His Majesty the Emperor want to invite David to dance? ”

The face of the attendant officer turned red, Emperor Ogra had never been insulted like this, this was not just ordinary rudeness, but naked contempt. Not to mention that it is still in the secular world, even at a banquet in the superpower world, such teasing should never be allowed.

The chamberlain's lips trembled, and he wanted to accuse and refute, but Seifert XI stopped him with a wave of his hand. The Emperor smiled and said, "The only adult princess of Ogra is Lady Jennifer, if she is here today, I can introduce her, but I don't know if she will be willing to fulfill your wishes." ”

Philip was speechless for a moment, and secretly scolded Seifert Eleven for being cunning - how shameful it is to use Jennifer's resounding name in the superpower world to bully people at secular banquets!

Since Philip interjected, Seifert XI quickly put aside the question of etiquette and went directly to David Duran: "Your Excellency David? ”

The emperor's straightforward request made David no longer avoid. When an emperor does things in the way of bandits, is there anything else he can do with him other than being bandits?

David had no choice but to nod: "It's an honor to meet you, Your Majesty the Emperor." ”

The Emperor wished to be able to speak with David alone, so he left the attendants and other guards where they were, and they walked around the banquet at will, not to the rest room that had been set aside for secret conversations.

"It's not easy to see you in person, David," said Seiffer XI happily, "The red tape of the Acropolis can be a headache at times, and I've been thinking since I was elected Emperor of Ogra that it might be better for us to avoid those spider webs that are caught between two worlds." So I tried to find an opportunity to break through the red tape. Now it's finally done once. ”

David smiled: "Nagging your light, I have broken it once now." ”

David actually agreed with the emperor's words in his heart, but because he was David Duran, such approval could never be expressed, let alone declared.

He said: "It's a pity that I left the red tape of the Acropolis, like a deflated old lady stripped naked, and the scenery was not beautiful." ”

"But it could also be a fragrant young girl. The emperor smiled and said, "Whether it is an old lady with a pouted mouth or a young girl, as long as you can see the true face, you will be satisfied." ”

David shook his head, not wanting to play word games with the emperor anymore, and decided to go straight in.

"Then why do you have to meet me in all your might?" he said, "and frankly, my majesty's presence here today was really unexpected, and I thought that the red tape of the Acropolis should be enough to explain it. ”

"Your chief chamberlain has made the choice for you, that's true, but for the sake of my country and your future, I think we need an interview. "Seiffer XI is a positive color," "Ogra needs a flag." ”

"Ogra already has a flag, before you are elected," David said, pausing and looking at the Emperor of Ogra, "I really can't understand where Caesar will be left by your actions." ”

"Caesar's blessing of Ogra deserves to be remembered forever by the people of Ogra, but history will never change by the birth or death of one. The Emperor's gaze was deep and powerful, "Caesar has fallen, and letting Egra continue to be strong is the way to carry on Caesar's legacy, rather than continue to indulge in grief and fantasy." I believe that if there is a kingdom of heaven, Caesar's spirit of heaven will also want Ogra to be united under one banner and bask in the brilliance of the God of the universe. ”

David looked at Seiffer XI strangely: "You say that Caesar has fallen, and how do you know something that even the gods of the universe can't be sure of?"

The Emperor was silent for a moment before he said, "The last item of the enthronement ceremony of the Emperor Ogra in the past has been to go to the temple dedicated to the god of the universe and pray for the blessing of the god of the universe. When I went to the temple to worship, I saw with my own eyes the whole process of the cleft of Caesar on the temple wall. After that, the temple, which had been open to the people of Ogra for thousands of years, and whose doors were open day and night, was suddenly closed. The person who gave the order was said to be Caesar's attendant, Shamanda. ”

"Understood," David nodded slightly, "but even if Ogra needs a new flagβ€”if Ogra does fall as you say, it seems that the person He will meet tonight at the cost of breaking with tradition should be someone else." ”

"You mean the Lord Anthony?" admitted Seifert XI, plainly admitted, "and to tell you the truth, if I don't see you to-day, I will have to go to see him." But it looks like I'm lucky that you're here for the Golden Banquet today. ”

"I'm not here for you. David thought to himself.

"It was such an honor. He smiled disapprovingly, "May I ask why? The Ranger has always been more popular with His Majesty than the Acropolis." ”

"This is not true," lamented Seiffert XI, "although the Ranger is beautiful, but it is like a young shoot, and it cannot withstand the wind, frost, rain and snow, and it is too weak." ”

He looked at David, and his tone became firm: "The emperor only welcomes what the emperor should welcome, and the needs of the empire are the emperor's welcome." ”

"Looks like you're in a lot of trouble. David was judged entirely by an outsider.

The Emperor sighed. His expression became distressed: "Out of respect for Caesar, I don't want to do anything to the people behind him." However, the squire Shamanda was an ambitious man. His desire for power kept him immersed in Caesar's illusions and refused to extricate himself. ”

"Shamanda even had a crazy plan, they found a young man similar to Caesar on Beacon Star, ready to merge Caesar's energy field with him. Seifert XI smiled sarcastically, "If the plan is realized, even if Caesar falls, it will mean a resurrection." ”

Because the news leaked by the emperor was really shocking, David was surprised for the first time.

"Energy field human fusion?" he said, "how is this possible?!"

"I also think it's impossible, even in Ogra. But ** can prompt people to do anything unbelievably crazy, even if it destroys the whole world. The Emperor said, "As far as I know, they have already received Lin Xiao's support in some kind of Cheng DΓΉ, and Krauser Shaw Beta came to Beacon Star to contact this matter personally. ”

David was speechless, he had never heard Lin Xiao mention the matter of energy fusion, and he couldn't imagine that his level had surpassed the times to such a point. But what is clear is that if Caesar falls, as long as Caesar's chief attendant tries to merge, whether it succeeds or not, it will inevitably lead to a great war between suzerainty and imperial power in Ogra. The vassals of the high-ranking Caesar clan and the newly appointed emperor and new nobles of Ogra gathered their forces to fight to the death for power.

Seifert XI continued: "I cannot tolerate Shamanda doing such a thing, but his power is great. In order to defeat him once and for all, I need a stronger ally. ”

David looked at the emperor playfully: "All strength has a price, Your Majesty should understand that my family is also huge, and more of it is in the inner region." ”

"Eighteen hundred years ago, Ogra was just an inconspicuous planet on the galactic frontier. 1,800 years later, its territory spans 10,000 light-years. Empires can be infinitely large, and as the Emperor of the Empire, I don't mind letting him continue to grow big during my tenure. And you, Lord Davidβ€”" Seiffert XI looked back at David, his eyes as sharp as before a falcon hunted, "I don't think you would mind making your family more in line with your heart. At this point, we are on the same path. ”

David almost admired the Emperor of Ogra. The people who can win in the election of hundreds of trillions of people are really born politicians, at least in terms of insight into people's hearts, this is more powerful than any hypnotic superpower, if he hadn't made a decision, he would have almost been instigated by this emperor.

David turned his eyes and saw Gu Hanhan's figure flashing, and then quickly sneaked back into the door. Then, not long after, the gate opened again, and Anthony reappeared at the railing.

"I'd love to accept your invitation, Your Majesty, but unfortunately I can't. ”

David gently stroked the Emperor's shoulder with his secret hand, and then shouted, "Philip." ”

Philip couldn't wait to come to David's side, with a look of excitement that feared that the world would not be chaotic. David pulled off the necklace of the power stone around his neck and threw it to Philip.
