"The Empire needs a new leader!" the old knight's cloudy grey eyes were bloodshot.

"What will be the consequences of the loss of the imperial rule of the Empire? Have you seriously thought about it?

"You think we're just here for personal gain," Gus El stood up suddenly, "Do you know what we've done for this? People like you don't understand our ideals, I..."

"You're only going to bring the Empire into a civil war!" Bernie coldly interrupted the old sir, "The six dukes will fight to the death because of the vacancy of the Golden Throne... When that time comes, the orcs will drive the leader straight in, and elves, dwarves, goblins, and other ancient races will jump out to fight for this rich eastern continent... At that time, the entire continent will return to the era of war and chaos 300 years ago. ”

Bernie took a deep breath, "War means that countless innocent people will die in battle, and countless families will be broken.

"The old rules must be broken!" Gus El said with unquestionable firmness in his tone, and then said with a full of illusions, "As for when the new order will come, let it be up to the goddess to decide." ”

"You're a bunch of crazy people!"

Gus El smiled noncommittally, then took two steps and walked up to Bernie and said, "A lot of people describe us like that... I have already said what I have to say, the Prime Minister's Office and the Ministry of Finance are thoroughly investigating the corruption case of the Marquis of Fitt in collusion with the Ministry of War, and you may be able to take the opportunity to admit your corruption. ”

"I feel your murderous aura, I know what you're thinking, you might be able to try!" Gus El took two more steps, he was now less than half a palm away from Bernie.

"Ding-chi-chang!"

Bernie's eyes suddenly glowed red, his skin instantly turned black, his muscles hardened like steel, and the steel chains on his body were shaken and floated by his force.

"Whew!"

The wind from the impact of his right fist sliced through the air with a slight grinding sound.

"Ding!"

It's a pity that the chain locked in the corner of the wall makes his punch impossible to reach Gus El.

"You—" Bernie looked at Gus El with a hint of shock.

"Isn't it a surprise?" Gus El took two steps back, wiping the little blood on his face that had been scraped by the strong wind, "This steel chain is strong, isn't it?" ”

Bernie looked down for the first time at the steel chain locked to him, the magic runes carved on it glowing with a lilac halo under the influence of the force.

"You think you're smart, you think you're in control?" Gus El shook his head, "I already knew your plans, and you weren't too careless to trust anyone else." ”

"It's Quix!" Bernie reacted.

"Yes, your assistant Quix!"

Gus El nodded, slowly retreated a few steps, and sat back in the chair he had just sat up, "When did you suspect me, you know, even I didn't know my identity until 24 hours ago. ”

"I doubt anyone, it's my duty... But I didn't expect Quix to be your man. Bernie's burst of power 'crunched' at the chains.

Six hours earlier, when Gus El had activated an internal investigation to investigate a possible problem at the top, Bernie, realizing the seriousness of the matter, had activated the Inspectorate's emergency order.

His job is to supervise the abuse of power by the Chief of Security!

Bernie even guessed that he would be secretly arrested by Gus El, so the defense in the dungeon was replaced by his men from the beginning. In his mind, the chain that locked him should have been dropped long ago, but the truth disappointed him, and the only one who could change everything was his assistant Quix.

"Sir, you should confess your sins as soon as possible. Quix stepped out of a shadow outside his cell,

"Shut up, I don't need your lackey to teach me what to do!" Bernie replied coldly.

Quix smiled indifferently, "I just wanted to remind you that we have a way to control the people of the Operations Section and the Supervision Section, but the means are a little drastic. ”

"That's better than letting the guards fall into your hands!"

"These two departments will always be under our control, sir, you should think about your family, your grandson looks like it was just a full moon last month, right?" said Quix.

"You!" Bernie's muscles swelled, and his steel-like muscles rattled as chains glowing with a faint purple light.

"You'll promise me, sir!" said Quex's figure disappeared into darkness again.

"I don't want to use this method either...", the old sir, who has two memories, was a little ambivalent.

"Hypocrisy!"

......

......

April 27 morning, well, or morning.

Sleeping in a daze, Pedi felt a chill on his face, and he reluctantly opened his eyes.

"Amy, don't make a fuss!"

What catches my eye is a small dog face, which is a pet dog raised by Pedy's sister Phyllis.

"Brother Pedi, it's time to get up. Phyllis was standing right behind Amy.

When he saw Phyllis, Pedi knew he couldn't sleep, and he sat up straight and looked subconsciously towards the window, where the sun's rays were already in the middle of the room.

He was stunned, realizing that it might be late, so he patted his face and asked, "What time is it?"

Phyllis picked up Amy, "It's half past ten, my dear brother, what time did you come back last night? Also, Penny has some friends in the background, and I hear them secretly teasing you in the backyard. She said whatever came to her mind.

"What are you kidding me?" said Pedi with a faint smile. 、

"Say you're better sleeping than their pets!" Phyllis puffed out, but then she blinked as if she had thought of something, and said with a wicked grin, "If Instructor Connors is still around, you'll be dead today." ”

Pedi was stunned, and a stereotypical middle-aged man's face immediately appeared in his mind, and that was Pedy's knight instructor Connors.

Pedi was taught by this instructor for six years, starting at the age of twelve, and it can be said that Pedi remembered Instructor Connors for the entire time of his youth.

A little over a month ago, after Pedy had finished all his knightly lessons, Instructor Connors had left the Prime Minister's Mansion with his family, and Duke Nick had told Pedi that the instructor had returned to the First Legion.

"It's a pity he's gone. Pedi rubbed Phyllis's head, "You're so free today, where's your magician course?"

Petdy's words made Phyllis a little frustrated and a little excited, and two diametrically opposed emotions flashed across her little face, making Petdy amused.

She sat on the edge of the bed, hugged Amy and whispered, "The mentor said that I have the qualifications to study the circle on my own, and she has responded to the call of the military department to go to Anku Fortress, she said that the orcs are gathering a large army on the border, according to her words... Kindness... How so?"

Phyllis couldn't think of words to describe her mentor at that time, she thought about it and jumped off the edge of the bed, followed her mentor's example and said, "The empire needs my strength now!"
