"Your Majesty is wise——" Seeing this, the guards flattered in unison. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Chuan Ho/Ke to the temple. As soon as Memphis sat back on the throne, he gave the order. So, dressed in a dark purple robe with a hood, wrapped in white strips of cloth, revealing only two eyes that released purple and magical energy light, the intelligence captain of the First Army, Huo Ke, strode into the palace hall and knelt down on one knee in front of the emperor's eyes.

"Master, it's been a long time. Immediately after, Huo Ke turned his head and glanced at Su, greeting in a strange tone. Seeing this, the chief spell instructor immediately turned his face to the side, not even glancing at this guy.

"Ah Hong, I didn't expect you to be here. Huo/Ke turned his head to look at Ah Hong again, and greeted him in the same strange tone.

"Your home—" As soon as Ah Hong opened her mouth, she wanted to continue, but she noticed that Memphis was looking this way, so she immediately closed her mouth.

"Ho/g. Have you, as my intelligence captain, ever seen such a thing?" Memphis sat on his throne and pointed to Gollum in search of Ho/K.

"Nope. The mucus on His Majesty's body, his subordinates have seen it. Hawk replied truthfully.

"Where, when did you see it?" asked Memphis further.

"It's in this palace. When the subordinate army had just taken over Klein City. Seen on the wreckage of the mourning god and on the body of Clovence. Hock's well-worded reply.

"There should be many kinds of dark green slime in the world, similar to this dark green slime. How can you be sure that the slime on my body is the same as the mourning god?" Memphis questioned Hawk's conclusion.

"The smell. With his subordinates' unusually sensitive special sense of smell, he smelled the mucus on His Majesty's body exactly the same as the remains of the mourning god at that time, as well as the smell on the remains of Clovence. The eyeballs on Hawk's face emitted an increasingly shining light, as if they were about to erupt, like two burning purple flames.

"You can go down. Memphis waved at Hawk. The intelligence captain stood up, turned and exited the palace.

"It seems that there is a connection between this goo and the God of Mourning, Firid, and Redseus. At that time, I really regretted that I shouldn't have let Redseus go. After that guy left the city, he should secretly send someone to arrest him and torture him. Memphis couldn't help but sigh regretfully.

"So this old man is a big villain! is my master's enemy!" Gollum thought angrily when she heard Memphis's self-talk, and immediately split into two clones. The three Gollums pounced on the Emperor of the Duan Feierta Empire in unison.

"The Spirit of the Earth, the Mother of All Things. Please form a barrier to the earth..."Seeing this, Su flashed in front of Gollum with an arrow, raised the Earth Spirit Heavenly Punishment Staff with his right hand, thrust it into the ground, and recited a spell in his mouth. - Ground barriers.

The ground in front of the Chief Wizard raised a stone wall, enclosing the gum monster and its two clone brothers in the middle, and no matter how the three Gollums bounced and squirmed within the wall, spewing poisonous miasma, and exhaling cold, they couldn't get out.

"Sue. What's going on with this thing?" Memphis asked curiously again as he saw Gollum split into three.

"Your Majesty, it's all your fault that my subordinates forgot to tell you. Fried says that Gollum can be split into three, and that the other two smaller ones will attack with Miasma and Chill, respectively. He also said that this alchemical creature can absorb the magical energy of a mage, mimicking it into the appearance of any item. Su explained meticulously.

"Is there such a thing?" Memphis questioned in disbelief.

Firid also said that no one but himself could currently control the creature. Sue stretched out her right index finger and tapped the stone wall that surrounded the three grunts. The fence immediately became transparent. I saw that the gelatinous monster and its two little brothers were still jumping around and spraying around.

"Let's try it, what the hell is this?" Memphis finished speaking, and his right hand pulled out the dazzling, silver-white blade from the scabbard at his waist, and several dragon-shaped thunderbolts were entwined on the blade, and the hilt was a thunder god sword forged from golden Xuan real alloy.

A bright and shining lightning bolt suddenly rose from the blade of the Thunder God Sword to the bottom of the ceiling of the palace hall, and then fell vertically, piercing into the middle of the stone wall that was surrounded by the three grunts.

The large gelatin and its two clones were suddenly struck by this blow, instantly splitting into slimy muddy residue that scattered all over the walls. Then, the muddy, green viscous residue on the floor of the main hall and on the stone walls moved slowly, little by little.

It was first made up of small pieces into one large piece, then from several large pieces to a larger piece, and finally restored to Gollum. However, after recovery, the gelatin monster was obviously listless, weak, unable to move, and could not even make a purring sound.

Seeing this, Su pressed down with his right palm. The stone wall in front of her lowered back to the ground. Memphis stepped up to Gollum again and gently flicked the gum monster with her toes. Gollum rolled on the ground several times, but remained motionless, made no sound, and still looked half-dead.

So, Memphis ordered Gollum to be locked in a tin box and placed in the corner of the palace hall. For the next few days, the Emperor of the Duanferta Empire would take Gollum out of the box every day, and then test it on the gelatinous monsters one by one with all kinds of spells, moves, and forbidden spells.

Memphis found that no matter what kind of attack he suffered, he was always broken up and reunited, always looking half-dead, and never again split into threes, breathing miasma, exhaling cold, or whatever.

After a few days, Memphis finally lost all interest and patience with Gollum, and thought to himself: this thing must have been sent by the Fried guy to fool the old man. He couldn't offer anything good! So the Emperor of the Duan Feierta Empire once again locked the gelatinous monster in a tin box, put it in the corner of the main hall, and left it alone.

A few more days passed, and it was still in the main hall of the Imperial Palace in Klein City. Memphis gathered his henchman, Sue, the commander-in-chief of the Spirit Guide Legion, and Thunderstorm, the commander of the Praetorian Heavy Cavalry.

"Yesterday. I received a handwritten letter from Strong to me. In his letter, he wrote: "The grandson of Elizabeth, named Noyachenko, and I will use the traditional way of settling disputes between nobles, a duel, to decide who will inherit the throne of Dufferta, in order to avoid the outbreak of civil war, which will lead to the destruction of each other's lives.

Moreover, Strong has informed all the nobles and lords of the country about the news. So I'm here to ask for your opinions. Should I accept this request?" asked two of his cronies, sitting precariously on his throne, holding a letter in his hand.

"Your Majesty, do you still need to ask?—— of course you shouldn't accept it! Your Majesty is already the emperor of the Duan Feierta Empire, what else do you need to fight for the throne? Directly let me bring 10,000 troops to set foot on the promised domain, chop up Strong and that Noyachenko, isn't it over?" Hearing this, Thunderstorm opened his mouth without thinking about it, and answered loudly first.

"According to the latest information I have, that Noyachenko is a general under Krosso, and his own strength is very good. Apparently, Krosso and Strong have colluded with each other. Thunderstorm. I'll give you 10,000 troops now. You killed Krosso for me first, and then you went to the Promised Realm. "Memphis gave a serious order to the thunderstorm.

"It's... Your Majesty... How is this possible? 10,000 troops are too few to deal with Krosso's Third Army, right?"

"Your Majesty. As far as his subordinates know, although Noyachenko is a little capable, his ability is actually far inferior to His Majesty. Your Majesty may agree to a duel with him, and when the time comes, he will make a public fool of him. Sue thought it over before he suggested Memphis.

"What!?" said Thunderstorm, wondering if his ears had misheard.

In Strong's letter, he was talking about a duel of life and death. When the time comes, all the nobles and lords in the territory of Duan Feierta will send representatives to the scene to testify. The losing side must relinquish the right to inherit the throne and all power.

The winning side will be unanimously supported by the noble lords. If the losing side breaks its promise, it will be defeated by the united nobles of the whole country. Memphis emphasized.

"For this reason, if Your Majesty does not agree to a duel, it will be seen as a sign of cowardice and incompetence. If this is the case, how can the noble lords be made to bow down to their vassals?

Therefore, Your Majesty must not bear the charge of a man who would rather start a war than accept a fair duel. Besides, when the time comes, His Majesty will go there. Noyachenko may not dare to duel with His Majesty. Once His Majesty wins the duel, those who refuse to submit to His Majesty will naturally not be able to find a reasonable excuse.

At that time, our army will be able to crusade against them logically. Therefore, his subordinates believed that Strong's plan was to make His Majesty refuse to fight a duel, so that he could incite the noble lords to refuse to submit to His Majesty. Sue's profound analysis.

"Even if those people unite against our army, what can they do? Wouldn't it be enough to destroy them all!" Thunderstorm stood aside and heard this, feeling that Su's words were too long for others to be ambitious, and he would destroy his own prestige, so he retorted loudly unconvinced.

"Stupid! Are the three gods of destruction a thousand years ago strong? Are the necromancers who launched the undead rebellion strong? After falling into injustice, it is undoubtedly an act of self-defeating to be the enemy of all the people in the world. Sue was right. I should accept this duel. However, it is necessary to be well prepared in advance for this. Memphis agreed with Sue's statement and reprimanded the thunderstorm.

"A letter back to Strong. It is clear that I have decided to accept Noyachenko's request for a duel. So Memphis summoned a clerk to the temple, and the clerk wrote a reply letter and sent it to Strong.

A few more days have passed, and it is still Klein City, inside the palace hall. Memphis gathered all the generals of the First Army together.

"I have agreed to a duel with Noyachenko, the grandson of the former Elven King Elizabeth and the manifestation of the Mark of the Five Great Heroic Spirits. The location of the duel was agreed upon by many parties, and in order to ensure safety and fairness, it was decided that the duel should be held on a sea surface ship at an equal distance from the island of the Promised Land and the coast of the continent of Africa.

Our army, the Third Army, which was on Noyachenko's side, was to send three of the largest warships to the duel. The third-party noble lords will also hire amphibious mercenaries to go to the scene on three of the largest warships to observe and maintain order.

Ragus, I have appointed you as the commander of the defense of Klein City after I leave, and will be responsible for the defense of the entire Imperial City.

Thunderstorm is in charge of the Praetorian Heavy Cavalry, Su is in charge of the Spirit Guide Legion, Ho/Ke is in charge of the intelligence troops, and Lofe is in charge of the giant troops, and tomorrow will go to Yanni Harbor with me and take a boat to the designated place of the duel. The rest of the troops continue to be deployed according to the predetermined programme. "Memphis ordered the generals of the First Army on the scene.

"Didn't Your Majesty suspect that Ragus and Fried were in collusion with each other, and why did you make Ragus the commander of the city defense of Klein?" One of Memphis' personal guards asked.

"That's why I'm putting him in this position, to see if he's really in league with Fried. If Fried wants to make a name for himself during my absence. When the time comes, Ragus will have to fight him and decide whether to side with me or Fried.

I asked Lofe, Firid's henchman, to go to sea with him, to see if Firid dared to make trouble behind my back. If he honestly uses the knowledge recorded in ancient books, I and everyone will have an eternal lifespan and stay young together.

I could have allowed him to survive. If he wants to betray me and plot evil. I'm going to send for his life soon!" Memphis told his personal guard.

"Your Majesty is wise!" the guard shouted flattery.

The next day, 12,000 Praetorian Heavy Cavalry Regiments, 6,000 Spirit Guide Regiments, a number of intelligence officers, and a large army under the command of Memphis gathered at Yanni Harbor, east of Ferta, where they boarded more than 150 wooden sail warships and began to sail northwest.

After some sailing, the whole huge fleet arrived at the bay of a small fishing village, dropped anchor, and anchored on the shore of a rudimentary quay. Then, the three main and largest sail warships broke away from the Grand Fleet and began to carry Memphis on board and continue their voyage to the northwest.

There were about 100,000 ordinary troops of the First Army left behind in the interior. Except for the First Swordsmen under the command of Ragus, who were stationed in Klein City. The rest of the forces were almost entirely stationed on several lines of defense between Klein and Galiah. (To be continued.) )
