Chapter 48: The Quarrel

The old king's funeral was soon over, and everything should have returned to normal, only to realize that the storm had only just begun......

"The king decrees that from now on, a thorough search of the demon stainers will be carried out with Xiongdu as the center, and the demon stainers who surrender and are searched will be handed over to the newly established Council of Evil Ranks and Tendencies for trial, and in case of resistance during the search, the army of the country has the right to kill them on the spot!"

"The king decreed that the former Prime Minister Piero Edessa was injured in the turmoil and that he should be allowed to return to his family residence for retirement, taking into account his advanced age, and that Generalissimo Tiana Crowned was now appointed as the new Hand of the King. ”

"The king ordered the Demon Hunter Corps to be expanded by 50,000, and it is fully responsible for the demon prohibition policy in the entire territory of Demacia!"

The three highest-level decrees were issued so unexpectedly and deservedly.

If the first decree, a complete ban on demons is imperative, then the second decree is not difficult to understand, it is said that on the night before it was issued, the old prime minister knelt outside Jiawen's study all night, but no one expected that the old prime minister stepped down and actually cheapened Tiana Crown!

Can...... Yes, the most prosaic third decree is the most terrifying place, the expansion of the Demon Hunter Corps to 50,000? Not the adjustment of the establishment to 50,000!

You must know that there were more than 50,000 people in the Demon Hunter Corps, so a super legion of 100,000 people!

If you look at it in conjunction with the second decree, you can't help but wonder what position the crown guard family should be in the kingdom of Demacia in the future?

A Hand of the King's Prime Minister who commands a hundred officials, a legion commander general who controls more than 100,000 super legions, a fiefdom of Mithril City that has been inherited since the founding of the country, and an elite private army of 20,000 families...... It's just on paper......

"The water in Xiongdu is too muddy, my old man asked me to follow him back to Tobizia now, do you want to go together?" Taylor said seriously as he looked at Hao, who had a blue nose and swollen eyes, with an expressionless face.

"I want to go too, I want to leave a long time ago!" Hao glanced at Andre, who had been frowning.

"I have no opinion here, you two troublemakers leave early, I'll be happy to be at ease!" Andre blew his beard and glared, and couldn't help but add, "Hey, you said you were fine, why did you run to provoke the eldest lady of the crown guard family......"

"Oh, it's endless, didn't you promise not to talk about this topic again!" Hao was furious.

"Lord, you don't know, this Lux still has an identity, that is the marriage that the Crown Guard family is preparing to marry the Light Shield family, which means that she is the future queen, boy, you can do it yourself!"

"Made, help labor and management tell those rabbit cubs in the Sixth Regiment, as well as Quinn and Xiao Cui, labor and management will go back soon!" Hao hurriedly chased to the door and shouted at Taylor's back.

"Hey, Hao, I'm here, come out, I can hear your voice!" At this moment, a beautiful female voice came from outside the gate of the military headquarters, but Hao heard this voice and suddenly the whole person was not good, the person who came was none other than the eldest lady of the Mian Wei family, Lux.

"Made, damn Taylor, labor and management are going to kill you sooner or later!" Hao scolded hatefully, and had to walk out of the military headquarters with a hard head, not that he was afraid of Lux, let alone Galen, but in his heart he just didn't want to have anything to do with the crown guard family.

There is a secret that Hao Ke has always kept in his heart......

Do you remember that assassination?

Hao Qingshu remembered the appearance of the crossbow, which seemed to be exactly the same as the *** that Lux shot Silas in the castle square?

And this time Silas was beheaded, and it was a coincidence that Lux escaped from the crown guard's house at the right time?

Silas has been dragging his feet, and it was precisely Zhao who believed in the old king's order to deliver the letter, so he immediately started to act?

The Demon Hunter Corps, which has been busy, then coincidentally went out of the city in advance to practice?

Still...... Yes, which one is the ultimate beneficiary?!

Pieced together, the truth seems to be clear......

However, although Hao is not the kind of extremely intelligent wise man, he also understands a truth, Demacia needs stability at this time, not another turmoil!

What's more, Hao's self-knowledge has repeatedly reminded him that with his current strength and the chips in his hands, he wants to point to the crown guard family?

So, whether it's doubtful or vigilant, all Hao can do now is to put this secret deep in his heart.

But if this development continues, Hao and the Mianwei family will still be inseparable sooner or later, so it is best to keep a distance from Lux and even Galen now, these two people may really be fine, but the previous generation of the Mianwei family is really ......

"Huh, why are you so bad today?"

"Yesterday, I ate your brother's big sword, and it's a blessing that I didn't die!" Hao replied pretending to be angry.

"Hmm...... I'm sorry...... I...... My brother didn't mean it!" Lux's eyes turned red as she spoke, and she could tell she was guilty.

"Oh, okay, it's not your fault that you have such a stunned brother, it's okay, it's okay, I'm fine, I'm joking with you!" Hao hurriedly said comfortingly, if this is to clean up Lux's tears, oh my God, Galen will have to ask me for a big sword again?

"Hmm...... Are you really okay, you're okay!" Lux patted her towering chest, adjusted her mood, and then said mysteriously, "Actually, I'm here today to tell you good news!"

"......" Hao nodded and motioned for Lux to continue, but thought to himself, "Hell, people say that you are a good saying, the first time I met you, the first time I was beaten half to death by Silas, and the second time I was beaten half to death by Galen, what good news? Miss, you can stop at home is the best news for me!"

"I've got Alice's whereabouts!" Lux said softly.

"......" Hao didn't react at first, and then he took Lux's arm with his ecstatic two hands and asked, "Really?"

"Oh, lightly, you're hurting me!" Lux exclaimed aggrievedly.

Andre, who had been "intently" watching the Xiongdu defense map in the room, heard Lux's cry, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, "Hey, this kid is really good at death!"

In Nancheng District, Hao and Lux walked along the way, and all they saw were teams of heavily armed demon seekers, either pressing the demon stainers to the ground and tying them up, or forcibly breaking down the doors of those suspected demon stainers.

"Brother?" Lux exclaimed softly, which made Hao suddenly feel his scalp start to tingle, and it was Galen who was standing in the middle of the street.

"Drink, why are you together again?" said Galen, whose eyes were so sharp, that he had already seen the sneaky two people in the alley, and strode over.

"That's not right!" said Lux, referring to the Taysters who had been tied up into meat dumplings and thrown into the prison cart like cattle, in a tone of seriousness that had never been seen before.

"The prince just saw that his father was murdered, and there will be many wrong things!"

"Yes...... But it's all because of me, what should I do?"

"Keep your head down, be obedient, obey orders!"

"So you have to arrest everyone who knows magic?"

“......”

This is your answer? You know better than anyone what injustice is. These people are not at fault at all! It's not fair!"

Galen seemed to be told a sore spot, and said with a serious face: "You listen to me! This has nothing to do with fairness." It's about preserving the kingdom...... And you!"

"I ...... I've never seen you like this...... You're scared......" Lux seemed to lose all her strength in an instant. But that didn't stop her from shouting to her beloved brother again, "No......! Can't do that!"

"They can. Galen was also like a deflated ball at the moment, and whispered, "And I'm going to help them." The prince has appointed me to assist from the side!"

"Who the hell are you? The Galen I know would rather die than be involved in such a thing. And Galen in front of me...... But it makes me deeply frightened and disgusted!" Lux's tears were already pouring out of her eyes, and she couldn't say any more, so she had to hide her face and run away......

"Sister...... Hey!" Galen wanted to call Lux back, but when the words came to his lips, he hesitated, indeed, what could he do if he called back? This is the king's order, can he disobey it?

However, this did not prevent Galen from venting his anger on the punching bag next to him, and he saw Galen glaring at Hao, who was still standing in place embarrassed, and yelled, "Look at the fart......!

"Oh......" Hao followed Lux after him.

"Protect my sister...... If...... I'm going to give you a great sword to serve......" Galen's loud voice chased down the alleyway.

"I'll protect your sister!" Hao ran away anyway, and it didn't prevent him from replying loudly!

Lux didn't run very fast, Hao quickly caught up, but now Lux was in a very bad mood, and Hao was not in a hurry to urge her to lead the way to Alice now, and the two of them walked with their heads down without saying a word...... Until......

"Huh?" exclaimed in a low voice after Lux stuck out her head at a corner, "Hao, hurry up and think of a way, Alice should be in that house!"

Hao stretched out his throw and glanced at it, only to see two people in standard Demon Finder attire banging on the door of a house with a log, and it was obvious that this was the house that Lux was talking about.

"Don't worry!" Hao tried to calm himself down, and after thinking about it, he quickly asked, "Do you have a similar token or something?" I mean, try not to have a conflict, and take these two demon seekers away with your identity!"

"Yes, yes, yes...... Don't get into conflicts...... Token...... Identity...... Belch...... Do you think this is going to work?" said Lux as she reached to her chest and pulled off a badge.

The coat of arms is very delicately made, with a pair of white wings on it, which is less than a sharp sword in the middle compared to the national emblem of Demacia, which is the family emblem of the crown guard.

Hao took the badge, and immediately felt the body temperature and faint aroma of Lux on the badge, of course, this time is not the time for the ape, Hao just paused, took the badge in his hand, and strode out......
