Chapter 309: Civil Strife in the Palace (Part II)

It's late.

Melsusa checked the battle reports from the front in the room, the armies of Jagon and Basharan had already invaded the heart of the Borg army from two directions, and it should not be long before the Borg people were completely defeated back to their country.

But their own army can no longer attack......

If you enter a familiar country, you may face endless guerrilla warfare, which will cost your team a lot of money. The Borgs were not Jagon's enemies, and their artillery could not reach Jagon in the depths of the desert, so just leave it here.

If Bashalam's army wants revenge, then go and fight it yourself, but with Borg's strong national strength, it is estimated that they will not be able to fight far......

Bang dang~

Melsusa was still reading the battle report when the door was suddenly kicked open.

"Bentari, I didn't say to restrain your temper tantrums in someone else's country. Melsusa turned to the commander in front of her.

This time, the Sun King sent a total of two commanders.

One is the Sky Guard itself, and the other is Bentari, who is in charge of the ground forces.

However, because of some special relationships, his status was slightly higher, so when he left, the High King made a special emphasis on letting Bentari obey his arrangement......

"What do you mean by what you did today? Why do you pay them less in return, this is an order from the High King, and you dare to disobey it!

"Don't talk nonsense...... The High King has never given such an order, and I say this only to obtain some compensation for the families of my brothers who have died in battle, and that they should pay for the military expenses we have spent on our journey. Melsusa said, looking at the other party.

Bentari had been sullen at dinner and had not spoken out until now.

"Didn't the High King say it......?

"I asked for it, you know our king's temper, will he care about these things?"

As the supreme king of the desert kingdoms, the most dazzling kingship under the sun...... Wise, philanthropic and charismatic, the Sun King usually doesn't care about these little things under a series of beautiful words.

And it's actually okay to let Jagon pay the expenses himself, but as the commander of the team, Mel Susa, wants to get some compensation, so that not only can he compensate the brothers and families who died in the battle, but also get a lot of benefits for us on this expedition.

"Then why did you say that before......"

"I can't trust their king, but this time I was surprised that they asked the southern nobles to come and explain in person, including the Earl who defeated the Golden Order. ”

I was still a little angry that the earl actually despised himself with knowledge he didn't understand!

"In a few days, you can pick a random person from the army, and when the time comes, just teach the earl a lesson, and don't be too ugly...... Don't forget that the High King has come to tell us if we have the chance, meet the one who can defeat the Golden Order. ”

"This is no problem, I will arrange it!"

As the two were talking, a blinding light suddenly came from outside the window.

At the same time, the roars of the palace guards followed......

"Alert!!!Everyone came to the main hall, and someone assassinated the little prince. ”

..............................

Sean and Igonia were taken directly to the palace hall by the guards, and all the southern earls and the palace guards and servants gathered in this place.

Almost everyone who remained in the royal palace was brought here, except for members of the royal family......

"What's going on?"

Pulling Igonia, Sean finally found someone he knew.

"I don't know, I just woke up from my sleep...... It seems that the little prince Anto has been assassinated. It was Count Dracula who spoke, and his face was slightly drunk.

At the dinner just now, many people drank a lot of wine, but who would have thought that someone would dare to assassinate someone in a place like the palace!

"Little Prince, have you found the Assassin?"

"We don't know yet, we're still waiting for news......"

All the southern lords looked at each other and didn't know what to do next, and the guards didn't know what was going on, they just received the news and gathered all the lords in the main hall.

[Panic!], [Uncomfortable!], and [Sleepy!]...... and so on pervade the entire hall.

Many of the lords were tired and didn't know exactly what was going on, so they could only wait for someone to come and explain.

Sean looked out of the sky for the time:

[Night: Cloudy,] ......

It was only 4 hours before dawn, but I still didn't wait for anyone to come out and explain the current situation.

Outside the main hall was the sound of the guards in their formal attire......

A little farther away, Sean saw Mel Susa and the other two he had seen during the day, and nodded with a slight smile as they looked at him, they should have also been called to the main hall by the guards.

It's a bit more spacious in this place and it's easier to keep everyone safe!

It wasn't until the sky was already slightly lit up that the Grand Duke walked into the hall...... He was also accompanied by the wizard Ai Xiu.

"Grand Duke!"

Hearing the voice, many squinting lords were busy standing up.

"I'm tired. ”

"What the hell is going on? Someone asked eagerly.

"At dinner, an enemy rushed to the room of the little prince Anto and assassinated him, and when he was found dead by the guards, he was already dead in his bed. Then he turned to Melsusa's side.

"Your Excellency, I suspect that this time it was the Borg's assassins who infiltrated the palace. ”

"How can a Borg assassin infiltrate the palace?" Melsusa said, dissatisfied.

It's a good thing this isn't Jagon's palace, otherwise the commander of the Sky Guard would be furious!

"We really didn't expect ...... either"

"Everyone should rest here tonight, the Praetorian Guard may blockade the imperial capital early tomorrow morning, so don't go back for the time being, it's safest here." The Grand Duke said.

Originally, he came to the imperial capital to plead for a reduction in payment, and after the payment was completed, it would end as long as Sean symbolically fought with the other party, but now they are all left behind.

"And His Majesty?"

"The king is in a sad time now, and we had better follow his arrangement. ”

However, when the Grand Duke explained the matter, Sean still saw the state of [Fear!] and [Uneasy!] from the other party.

It's just an assassin, even if he is very capable, he won't scare the old duke like this!

On the other side, Ai Xiu found himself and Igonia in the crowd......

"Igonia, how did you get here?"

"Mentor~"

When facing herself, Igonia didn't dare to speak so much in front of Sean.

But at the moment, Sean didn't care about the nagging of their master and apprentice, and asked Ai Xiu directly......

"Master Ai Xiu, what is the matter with the little prince? was he really assassinated? There are still people who can enter the palace and kill people......
