The Pope stood by the window, looking out of the palace across the street, wondering what he was thinking.

A man hurried in, but his steps were so light that he barely made a sound.

"Your Excellency, Yang Haonian's side has failed, and Anthony is coming to the palace."

The Pope still looked out the window, did not turn around, did not even frown.

"It's just an idle move, and I didn't expect him to make a contribution. It's better to come, otherwise wouldn't our preparations be in vain? Although the time was a bit rushed, some of the planned settings were not yet ready. But didn't you always think that I was making a big fuss and putting too much emphasis on Anthony? Even if the big net is not yet fully compiled, you should have the confidence to win, right? ”

Including the person who reported the news, the people behind him were silent and speechless.

The Pope waved his hand back and said indifferently: "Go down, get ready to greet this unborn genius boy." ”

"Yes!"

The men saluted and turned to go down.

From beginning to end, the person who reported the letter did not mention Yang Haoran's life or death, and the Pope did not ask questions. They only care about the success or failure of the plan, who cares if a small person lives or dies.

Anthony walked towards the palace step by step, unhurriedly, like an ordinary person.

He was not in a hurry, nor was he angry, and he walked leisurely, as if he was not in a hurry at all.

Because he knows very well in his heart that being in a hurry will not solve the problem, and it is very likely that something bad will happen anyway.

The enemy roster is very strong, much stronger than all the enemies he has encountered before combined. But his strength is also different from what it used to be, and he is not afraid in his heart.

It's just that if you want to defeat the enemy, you must think clearly and be cool-headed, so you have a chance of winning.

Anthony walked from the street to the palace gates, and the soldiers guarding him saw it and hurriedly saluted him.

"General!"

Anthony looked at him, his brow furrowed.

"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before? ”

The soldier stood up straight and forced himself to calm down: "General Qiyu, I am a soldier guarding the outer city, and it is my turn to be on duty today. ”

"But counting the days, isn't it Mecca's turn today? Where is he, how can he not see others anymore? ”

The soldier's face remained unchanged and he replied calmly.

"Mecca was injured in training a few days ago and is on bed rest and can't stand guard on duty, so today I'm on his shift."

Anthony snorted, finally accepting his explanation.

Seeing the young man walking towards the palace, the soldier finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Anthony suddenly stopped and said without looking back.

"Actually, I don't know who is on duty today, Mecca or whatever, and it's even more casually made. You have the talent to deal with it decently, but it's a pity ......"

Anthony didn't say anything, but stepped back into the palace gates.

The soldier finally couldn't keep his composure anymore, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.

The Imperial Palace is naturally located within the imperial capital, but within the Imperial Palace, it is divided into an outer city and an inner city.

The outer city was heavily guarded and heavily guarded, and ordinary people did not dare to approach it at all.

But the inner city has twice as much garrison strength compared to it. The entire steel fortress is like a final place for the royal family and the important ministers of the empire.

Anthony entered the outer city and continued to maintain a calm pace. Along the way, not to mention the soldiers guarding the palace, even if they are palace maids, they are half gone.

All of this has shown that it is unusual.

But Anthony's face was as usual, and he just walked straight inside.

He already knew that this was a trap, but even with the Longtan Tiger's Den in front of him, he still walked forward.

The enemy obviously calculated this and was too lazy to embellish. Or maybe they came early, so they didn't have time to disguise.

Anyway, he, Anthony, has arrived. Next, it's up to the enemy to make a move.

The palace was huge, and Anthony couldn't go fast. After passing through the palaces, I finally walked in front of the walls of the inner city.

On the city wall, from a distance, you can see several figures standing.

Beneath the city walls, on both sides of the avenue, stood in a line of hundreds of elite warriors wearing magical armor. The face was solemn, silent, and a murderous aura arose spontaneously.

Behind the warriors were slightly smaller magicians dressed in robes and holding staffs.

Hundreds of people put on a posture of waiting, but Anthony didn't seem to see it, just maintained a fixed speed, slowly, but firmly and unchangeably.

He walked to the front of the city wall, also surrounded by troops on both sides, and tilted his head slightly, looking at the city wall.

"Where's Princess Arlina?"

His voice was flat, without a hint of fireworks, just like friends meeting and chatting about homely things.

But a few people on the city wall who are obviously high and powerful, and who are used to being flattered on weekdays, are on fire.

They put on such a battle, but the teenager they had to deal with completely ignored them, treating them all as if they were air. This is more angry and embarrassing than scolding them.

"As I said a long time ago, General Anthony is a rare hero in the world. What to put on the horse, how to work, is just a joke in vain. ”

With the words, three figures appeared on the city wall.

It was a gray-haired old man who wore a somewhat quaint crown on his head and held a long staff in his hand.

Appearing here at this moment, he is dressed like this, and he can only be the Pope of the Holy See of Light.

But Anthony's gaze only swept over him, and then fell on the man and woman who followed him.

The man is the prince of the glorious empire, Andrei.

The woman is none other than the prince's sister, Princess Arlinna.

But Princess Arlina was coerced and pushed up by her younger brother Andre, not only her hands were tied behind her back, but her mouth was stuffed with cloth. But it was Andre who was worried that she would speak to Anthony and affect their plans.

Looking at the grief, disappointment, and anger in his lover's eyes, Anthony's eyes narrowed slightly, and a terrifying light radiated from his eyes.

When he saw that the necklace he had brought to Arlina was missing, he was even more angry.

Needless to say, just looking at the current situation, everything is clear.

Before he could speak, Prince Andrei on the city wall was already the first to scold.

"Anthony colluded with the Riga Empire to subvert the royal family of the glorious empire and replace it. Now that the matter has been revealed, why don't you catch it quickly! ”

Prince Andre shouted violently, but he lacked the support of the people next to him, and his momentum was not very sufficient.

After the death of King Beckenbauer, he was the natural next king of the glorious empire. But here, in the eyes of these high-ranking elites of the Bright Sect, none of them took him seriously.

The corners of Anthony's mouth twitched, revealing a mocking look.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you believe the charge you said?"

He reached out and pointed to the left and right, and said indifferently.

"These soldiers present now, and those people around you, Your Highness, besides you and me, and your poor sister, but also any people from the glorious empire? Your Highness has figured it out, it is indeed a mere collusion with outsiders, not anyone else? ”

Prince Andrei was so embarrassed and angry that he was speechless for a while. Anthony's fame and turning the tide came by stepping on the corpses of the soldiers of the Riga Empire. The accusations he weaved for him are naturally unreliable.

However, the crime was only an excuse, and the prince did not think of making him confess his guilt obediently.

He jerked out the sword at his waist and landed it across Arlina's jade neck.

"Bold rebels, still refuse to give in?"

Anthony's eyes became colder and colder: "Have you ever thought that the one you used to blackmail me, a traitor, is your sister, the sister born of a mother?" ”

Andre was furious, but an old hand was horizontal, so that he could hold back all the words below.

"I've heard of Anthony's name. When I saw it today, I was really a heroic young man, heroic and extraordinary. ”

Anthony turned to look at him, his face more cautious.

"I think I, Anthony, have never had anything to do with the Holy See of Light, and there is nothing disrespectful or offensive about it. But first, there were experts from the Holy See who attacked the camp and assassinated them, and now they are even more in a big formation to deal with mere ones. I'd love to ask, why? ”

The Pope looked down at him with a calm face: "Because you are a heretic. ”

Anthony pressed closely, "Why am I a heretic?" ”

The Pope remained calm: "The Lord says you are a heretic, you are a heretic, there is no why. ”

Anthony laughed, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"If the Lord Almighty now says that the Pope is a heretic, then the Lord will immediately become like me?"

"That's right." The Pope didn't blink an eye, and as a matter of course.

Anthony was stunned, but he didn't expect him to answer like this.

The fanatical cultists, who only have the gods they believe in, really have no reason at all.

The Pope continued: "I don't know much about what Prince André said. But for the sake of Princess Arlena's safety, the general should not resist and accept the ruling of my Cult of Light to purify. ”

"Is the self-proclaimed righteous Holy See of Light so despicable and shameless?" Anthony looked disdainful and angry, and there was helplessness to accept his fate.

But his mind was spinning, and the magic weapon of the lottery, the mutton fat jade bottle, had quietly fallen into his hands.

Anthony has always been meticulous and cautious, and he is used to leaving a trail behind. Knowing that the trip to the imperial capital was risky, he dared to let Yalina act alone, and the top magic weapon mutton fat jade pure bottle was his biggest reliance.

As long as he gets Arlina back, Anthony doesn't mind letting them go.

But at this moment, something happened suddenly!
