"Juventus, how many years have we not seen each other?"

"Your Majesty...... Father, it's been almost ten years, right? ”

"Ten years...... I didn't expect that I was just asking you to send envoys to other countries to express the goodwill of the empire, but I was very pleased that you had grown so much. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"This is all the guidance of your diplomatic colleagues, not to mention the respect that countries have for the St. Orlando Empire."

The old emperor looked at him deeply, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this, today is your first day back, go and rest first." ”

When the old attendant sent the second prince away, the tired old emperor patted his face, worrying every day that the aristocratic faction would face an unfavorable situation, and only in this way could he relax a little.

Since the signing of the Treaty of Crows, the empire has become more and more unstable, and the seven dukes, who have not listened to the decrees of the government for a long time, have joined forces with other noble classes to provoke the royal power again and again, and the former ministers have been the supreme central body formed for the rule of the royal family and the empire, but now they have been infiltrated by the other side, and now there is no minister who openly supports the imperial family, which is simply a big joke.

On the international front, the loose imperial alliance had to face the Norman alliance with rapid military strength, and the alliance formed by the other side completely by military means was not at all what this weak alliance of allies who asked for money, materials, and military aid in three days and two ends could not have won a decent victory, but several small border countries had to join the Norman alliance because they could not get the protection of the empire, and they lost a lot of points diplomatically.

"Well, I'm going to ask Clovis what this kid is doing, and if there's any new news."

Regarding the three princes of Clovis, to be honest, the old emperor does not particularly care, he has no special talent since he was a child, in addition to useless artistic cells, he is exposed to politics, military and diplomacy and a series of content related to imperial rule, none of which is good at, if the future crown prince takes the throne, then the third prince may replace the current less obedient minister of education and assist his eldest brother to rule the empire.

Just as the old emperor was sitting in a comfortable soft chair in the dormitory, ready to notify the guards with a new factory carrier pigeon short-range barrier-free magic device, an urgent magic message came, and it seemed that it was Juventus, the commander of the royal guard? Battuso, the old emperor hurriedly picked it up.

"Your Majesty...... I...... Significant...... Report. ”

"I can hear you, General Battuso assures you of the magical teleportation environment, and makes it clear what you've got."

After a long while, the royal mages urgently summoned by the old emperor relied on various means to strengthen the communication before they heard each other's voices again.

"Your Majesty, thank God that I can still contact you, I have just discovered the Norman Alliance Locats agents, with the help of Admiral Catherine, I have tortured a lot of information, and the other party is likely to launch a large-scale operation, the target is the imperial capital El Carloon!"

"Impossible! Do they want to travel through half an empire? The entire imperial capital was shrouded in a solidified space lock array, and no one could teleport over without the exact coordinates and the approval of the Royal Mage Guild! ”

"That's true, Your Majesty, but from all indications that this operation is definitely about helping the other side, we must hurry up and gather troops to deal with possible threats."

The Emperor frowned and thought, he knew that if what the general said was right, no, it should be said that there was even the slightest possibility that he had to be guarded against, and the slightest negligence at this juncture could lead to extremely serious consequences.

"I understand, I will raise the security level of the palace, General, please come back quickly and command the troops, I need your help."

"Yes, my majesty."

The Emperor stood up and looked at the attendants, guards, mages, and royal nobles around him, "Everyone has heard the general's information, now hurry up and prepare for battle, and besides, who will go find the boy Clovis and ask him to hurry up and bring the mercenaries to the Mirror Palace." ”

The group quickly led the order to leave, but they were destined to do useless work, because Clovis was in the gentle country at this time, and his attendants and guards fell at the feet of Hasil with unwilling faces, and the captain of the guard who was still alive had to endure great pain, because the perverted Bolton nobleman was excitedly peeling off the skin of the victim, and the expression was the same as the third prince in the room, the difference was that the prince enjoyed the ****, and he enjoyed the pleasure of abuse.

"It's a perfect leather, you see, I'm going to make a nice set of lamps out of it, and maybe a pair of boots will do the same."

"The craftsmanship of the adults is high, but what about the three princes inside?"

"You don't need to worry about that, the first mate of the Stormy Ocean will take good care of him, am I right?"

"That's right, my sweet little Clovis is so obedient that he doesn't have the slightest hint of refusal, and he'll cooperate with us to shut down some offensive gadgets."

The first mate who said this did not hide his proud posture in front of everyone, but His Royal Highness the Prince beside her looked confused and intoxicated, leaning on several young women who were also tall, and from his sallow face, it could be seen that His Royal Highness Clovis had behaved too much in recent times.

Hasir looked at His Highness with great interest, "This is the new emperor that my father has prepared, and to be honest, I am a little ...... I like this guy, the skin and appearance are really superb, and I have never peeled the descendants of Empress Sylvia, I wonder if there will be anything special? ”

"You can try this later, first let those pirates destroy Riberia's escort fleet, those two big ships I've coveted for a long time."

"As you wish, my lady, your people control the port, and our noble faction will seize the trade area and the noble area, as for me, I will take this royal highness back to the Mirror Palace and personally close the magic circle."

"Very well, let's get moving, tonight El Carron and the Empire, and even the whole world will tremble at our actions."

At the same time, Admiral Catherine separated from General Battuso as soon as possible after receiving the information and rushed to the port, I have to say that the anti-teleportation circle in the imperial capital is very good, but at the moment of crisis, Miss Admiral, who had no time to register with the Royal Mage Association, could not use the teleportation items to return to the battleship, she could only collect as many sailors as possible along the way and return to the port.

"It's terrifying, Your Excellency, we have only contacted about a hundred people at the moment, and we are completely unable to meet your requirements."

"All officers on duty should go to the gallows! I said that after landing, they took turns to rest in four groups, and as a result, they let go of half of the sailors on the first day, and now they have this kind of intelligence again......"

"Why don't we go directly to the garrison, maybe there are some unlucky people in their prison."

"That's a good point." In order to win more troops, Catherine also had to go to the garrison prison, and it didn't take much effort to talk to the warden, "Your Excellency, why is this urgently releasing the criminals of your country?" It stands to reason that none of them have yet accepted punishment. ”

"I don't have time to do that now, how many people do you have here, and do you have enough weapons?"

"There are about two hundred criminals, fifty people stationed in the garrison, and the weapons are all useless waste, ...... are you?"

Before the warden finished speaking, they heard a huge explosion, and everyone rushed out of the prison, and saw that in the direction of the lower city, an orange flame rose into the sky, billowing smoke and marched into the sky, and within two minutes, four red magic flares appeared in the dark night sky, which was the alarm fireworks of the enemy, and at the same time, four also meant that the garrison encountered the most serious situation.

"It seems that what you said does make sense, the key to the criminals is here, and I think your people can manage the whereabouts of these criminals, right?"

Catherine silently turned the key, watching the warden pack his equipment and rush in that direction, she admired the fearlessness of the other party and was worried about his planlessness, but now she could only continue to advance towards the port with her men.

As for the criminals, when they heard that the imperial capital was attacked or the highest alarm, and no one did not obey the orders of the female general in front of them, Catherine's subordinates talked to them, and these thugs immediately formed up behind her, and a militia squad that looked quite fierce appeared on the scene.

"General Catherine, we listen to you now, if someone can let us out at this critical juncture, we will obey whatever plan you have."

"You guys are really realistic, keep up, I don't want you to encounter any bad incidents, and put your hands away for me, whoever messes around will chop off his claws!"

After the fierce admiral's threat succeeded in deterring the bastards, the group hurried towards the port area, where chaos had already begun when they reached the outskirts, with pirates raving and robbing houses, screaming citizens being chased and beaten, and nearby Riberian sailors being besieged, and those caught were usually humiliated to death.

"Admiral, it looks like there are a lot of enemies, what should we do?" One of the sailors looked at the front worriedly, although they had not been noticed yet, but once the fight started, it would definitely be a heavy number of casualties, and the number of enemies was too many.

"What else can I do? Soldiers! I command you to take up arms! Kill the bastard on the other side with everyone who wants to live! Kill! Kill! Kill! In the name of God, charge with me! God bless my king! ”

The admiral's roar resounded through the harbor area, and the bloody night of Elkalon began.
