The huge drum sounded, this time the pomp was completely different from before, the bells and drums rang out in unison, spread throughout the imperial city, and all the nobles in the council hall stood up, this is the current king of the Doma Empire, the master of the entire continent, no one dares to have the slightest disrespect......

The "Ten Nations Elders" also breathed a sigh of relief, but it was okay...... The king finally appeared on time, otherwise the "battle for the king's election" would not have been able to continue. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the forefront were the royal guards, who obeyed the king's orders directly, and were the most loyal warriors, each wearing delicate full-body armor, not revealing an inch of skin, and everyone walked in exactly the same way, exuding an astonishing momentum just by walking slowly like this.

Behind them, the long-awaited Royal Highness finally appeared.

The old king looked to be in his sixties, with a face that was not angry but powerful, and his blonde hair was draped all the way to his waist, although there were many wrinkles on his face, it was not difficult to see that he was once a beautiful man.

However, what made everyone present almost drop their jaws was the old king's current spirit, his face was ruddy and shiny, his body was strong and hard, if he had to pick a thorn, he only had heavy bags under his eyes, and it seemed that he often stayed up late, but in the end, where is this serious illness in bed?

And what is even more surprising is his dress, in this kind of formal occasion, the "battle of the king's election", the grand event that determines the next king in the world, which king does not attach great importance to it, at least he has to appear in a formal suit.

But the old king was only wearing a thick robe, obviously not the kind of formal attire, but the same style as pajamas, his hair was casually draped behind him and not tidied up, and what was even more exaggerated was that the old king's feet were actually wearing a pair of slippers!

The slippers stepped on the red carpet of the conference hall, making a dragging sound, and a lazy atmosphere rushed to the face......

Is this really the king of the Doma Empire?

The nobles who had participated in the proceedings before rubbed their eyes, well, they must have seen it wrong......

You must know that the former king of the empire was known for his diligence and dedication, and when he was young, he was even called a workaholic, and he asked about all political affairs, large and small, and sat in the council hall all day, with extraordinary formal clothes and leather shoes, and spoke loudly, which convinced countless nobles.

It is precisely because of this, in his hands, the Doma Empire has almost reached the pinnacle of history, you must know that the last time the Demon Realm and the Human Continent fought a big war, it was the first time that the Demon Realm did not even break through the blockade of the cursed land and enter the interior.

This is unique in history, although the human casualties are still heavy, and countless bones are left behind in the cursed land, but this time there is no tragedy of the massacre of civilians after the Demon Realm enters the interior, and this alone is enough for the current king to go down in history.

Of course, his great achievements are by no means limited to this, just because he has never appeared in the council hall in the past few years, but the whole empire is still functioning normally, you can see how powerful and majestic he is, as long as he has not returned to the west, these nobles of the empire will never dare to stir up any big trouble.

But today, the tall image that had been built in the hearts of the nobles collapsed, and they suspected that they had seen a fake king......

Many people even forgot to sit down, and just watched with straight eyes as the old king sat on the throne.

In everyone's eyes, the old king even yawned, looking sleep-deprived, this position is a little nostalgic, he hasn't sat here for several years......

The first thing that caught his eye was the four people in front of him, and the old king's gaze fell on Josephine first: "Well, the seventh generation of the brave Josephine...... It's really a talent, I didn't expect my "Battle of the King's Choice" and the brave to appear in person, I am really pleased, old man. ”

The old king's words could not hear his emotions, but the nobles present knew that the old king was pushing the sixth generation of brave men back then, so this seventh generation of brave men was a little subtle.

Josephine was neither humble nor arrogant, and made a noble salute: "His Royal Highness the King has won the award, and it is an honor to be able to participate in the "Battle of the King's Choice". ”

Then his eyes fell on Gavin, who was grinning, and Gavin also clumsily made a noble salute, but it looked funny, maybe this was Gavin's first aristocratic salute, and there was not so much red tape on the blood-red plateau.

But the old king didn't care: "At first glance, it's from the Frida family, and the old man is in good health?"

Gavin grinned: "Well, Daddy is in good health, and now he can still go into battle to kill the enemy!"

Turning his gaze on Jarvis, the old king spoke: "The Strease family has completely delegated power to young people, haha, very good, very good." ”

Jarvis performed a solemn and standard aristocratic salute: "I will not disgrace my father's face in this trip!"

One last glance at Barnett, the old king showed a rare show of interest: "You are the new Duke of Barnett, in place of Apollo." ”

Barnett also saluted: "It is Barnett below, and he will definitely do his best to contribute to the "Battle of the King's Election"!"

The old king nodded: "Well, at first glance, it is much more reliable than the Apollo boy......"

Speaking of which, Apollo can be regarded as a real problem child, in this chamber he has the most things to do, not to mention that he often contradicts the old king, and always disobeys the old king's orders, and is an absolute thorn in the head, and now it is good news for the old king.

Looking at the audience, the old king's eyes swept among the four "king-elected", and he couldn't help but sigh infinitely in his heart, this scene is really familiar, he was also a person standing below at the beginning, and now he ...... Where are all your brothers......

In addition to a meaningful glance at the boss, the old king's eyes stayed on Leonardo da Vinci for a few seconds, he didn't expect Da Vinci to come back to participate in the "Battle of the King's Election", but there was also a bit of tenderness in his eyes, for Da Vinci's mother, the old king really loved each other.

The "Ten Nations Elders" were also so shocked that their mouths grew up, enough to stuff an egg, making people worry about whether these old men would suddenly die suddenly because they were too excited......

Where is the serious illness in bed...... You're more energetic than the average old man!

The white-eyed old man obviously knew the situation, and coughed dryly, which woke up the shock of the audience: "Since His Royal Highness the King has come down, then His Royal Highness the King will personally say the rules of this "Battle of the King's Choice". ”
