The night was deep, and the wind was howling, like some mysterious creature roaring in a low voice, which made people feel chilling to hear.

In the glorious and majestic palace, there are no bright lights in the past, and only a few candles are jumping and shaking in the wind, illuminating the shadows on people's faces, light and dark.

"Father, haven't you made up your mind yet?" Prince Andrei's voice rang out, and his tone was slightly hurried.

In the palace, there were only two kings and fathers at this time.

King Beckenbauer's face was gloomy and irritable: "Does it have to be like this? The soldiers at the front fought bloodily, but we ...... In this way, no matter what the result is, the morale of the army and the people will be lost, and the good situation that has been fought down with great difficulty will be completely destroyed in the blink of an eye. This...... Alas~"

Prince Andrei's eyes flickered, and he said: "The army of my glorious empire is marching forward and conquering the territory of the Riga Empire, which is the credit of all the soldiers of the army, and it cannot be all attributed to Anthony alone. Our army's morale is now flourishing, and after the baptism of war, the strength and spirit have long been different from what they used to be. Even without Antony, under the leadership of other generals, the Riga Empire could still be defeated. ”

His Majesty the King was silent.

Prince Andrei continued: "Take 10,000 steps back, even if the war ends here, under the righteous auspices of the Holy See of Light and the Holy Empire, the territory we occupy will be owned by the Brilliant Empire. Such a feat of expanding the territory, accomplished in the hands of my father, is enough to comfort the ancestors of my Alexandra family. In the history books of the empire in the future, a strong stroke will inevitably be written for the father. ”

His Majesty hesitated, and said, "If I could, I still wouldn't want to do that." Our empire is now gaining momentum, and the previously invincible Riga Empire is no longer a cause for concern. If there was no such thing, you and I would have been able to watch the rise of the glorious empire with our own eyes. ”

King Beckenbauer frowned, and let out another long sigh.

The number of times he sighed lately was comparable to when he was cornered by the Riga Empire. You know, now the Glorious Empire has won all the way and invaded the borders of the Riga Empire.

The corners of Prince Andrei's mouth hooked an arc, and it looked a little weird: "Father, according to the latest information, our army and the Marshal Banks of the Riga Empire are dating to fight. According to the time calculation, it is estimated that the fight has already begun. ”

"What?" His Majesty the King was shocked and glared at him, "How do you know? ”

The war on the front line is progressing smoothly, and various war reports are constantly being sent back. However, due to the distance between the roads, it is inevitable that there will be a lag in information. King Beckenbauer gave Anthony a lot of power, allowing him to act at his discretion and cheaply, which was also an important factor.

Since the removal of internal obstacles, the passage of messengers has been unobstructed and the speed has increased dramatically. But as the head of a country, Beckenbauer didn't get any first-hand information, so how did Prince Andre know about it?

"Father, the news was told to me by someone from the Holy See of Light." Andrei said indifferently.

It's the Holy See of Light again.

His Majesty did not speak, but his heart sank. This son of his own, has recently gotten a little too close to the people of the Holy See of Light.

Andre's next words were like a bombshell, shocking His Majesty the King.

"The Bright Sect has set up a portal in our empire, not to mention message transmission, even if it is a long-distance transfer of the army, it is also instantaneous."

"What do you say? When did this happen? How did I not know? ”

King Beckenbauer asked three questions in quick succession, like a cannon, and his face was full of horror and fear.

It is no wonder that His Majesty was amazed that the Holy See of Light has mastered spatial magic and is able to construct portals, which is not just as simple as making the transmission of messages faster and the flow of people more frequent.

Because it's still a big killer.

Think about it, inside the heavily guarded checkpoint fortress, behind the heavily prepared army, in the imperial capital in the heart of the empire, if an elite army suddenly pops up, the consequences will be absolutely catastrophic.

Although there are still limitations in terms of the consumption of the use of the architecture and the throughput of the portal, the Bright Holy See, which has deep pockets, cannot use this big killing weapon too casually. However, its important role is still the envy of any national force. At the same time, they are also wary of the Holy See of Light.

Now I heard that the Holy See of Light has actually built a portal within the empire, and judging by his son's tone and expression, the location may be near the imperial capital, or even within the imperial capital.

Thinking that there was a back door around him, and that an elite army could break in from outside the door at any time and anywhere, how could His Majesty the King sit still, how could he not be horrified!

If it wasn't his own son on the other side, King Beckenbauer looked at Andre as if nothing had happened, and almost couldn't help but draw his sword and cut him down.

This kind of behavior is not much different from betraying the country.

Prince Andrei seemed to know his father's anger, but he was not in a hurry to defend himself, but just took out a piece of tissue paper and handed it to him without saying a word.

His Majesty held back his anger, but still reached out to take it, and looked down.

"Sword of Light", "Judgment", Cardinal, Cardinal......

The "Sword of Light" troops of the Holy See of Light are terrifyingly strong, and King Beckenbauer has long been thunderous. Although I haven't heard of "Judgment", it can be put together with "Sword of Light", and it is almost or even more powerful and mysterious existence. As for the cardinal archbishop, cardinal, etc., they are high-ranking figures in the Holy See, and their strength realm is the top martial arts master in the fourth realm.

But what His Majesty does not understand is what Andrei means by showing him this list?

Don't......

"This is part of the power of the Holy See of Light to come to my glorious empire from the portal, ready to capture the ruling heretic Anthony."

The son's voice sounded to King Beckenbauer's ears, as if it came from the Nine Abyss, and it also confirmed the bad conjecture in his heart.

Prince Andrei looked at his father with an aggressive glint in his eyes.

"Father, do you still want to shield that Anthony and confront the Holy See of Light, which represents the entire Holy Empire? For his own sake, he pulled all the nobles, commoners, and warriors of my glorious empire into the whirlpool of war with no hope, and even pushed my empire to ruin. Is this really worth it? ”

His Majesty, holding the piece of paper in his hand, felt that the thin piece of paper was as heavy as a mountain. The words on it represented a powerful force that made people's hearts palpitate, and he couldn't breathe.

In order to deal with a mere teenager, why did the Bright Sect go so far and dispatch such a huge armed force?

Although Andrei had previously said that the Holy See of Light was hostile to Antony, King Beckenbauer did not take it too seriously.

Anthony is just a teenager, and how much hatred can he have with a behemoth like the Holy See of Light. Racial forces such as the Lizu and the Dwarves, which had historically been opposed by the Holy See, have now returned to the mainland stage in a grand manner, and they have not seen any violent reaction. For Anthony, at most, it's just an opportunity to suppress and learn a lesson, what else?

But what he saw and heard today made His Majesty the King tremble.

These forces dispatched by the Bright Sect are very sure even if they subvert the imperial capital, where the defensive force is relatively empty. If the thief captures the king first, he wants to assassinate himself...... His Majesty shuddered in his heart.

But if he wants to design against Anthony, how can this genius boy who has turned the tide, who has made great contributions to him and the glorious empire, and who has a good impression of him, and who has been regarded as his future son-in-law, can do it?

"Let me think about it again."

His Majesty turned to come and go, his figure rather lonely. He still clenched the piece of paper tightly in his hand, as if he didn't dare to throw it away at will.

Prince Andre looked at his father as if he had aged all of a sudden, and there was no respect and admiration in his eyes, but he sneered in his heart.

He was convinced that no matter how reluctant his father was, he would eventually have to reluctantly agree.
