Chapter 22: 'Top Chess Players'
Picking up the artificial creature core on the ground, Su Xiao discovered the special feature of the Black King World, this is not the world to which the Reincarnation Paradise belongs, so the drop rate of the treasure chest here is very low.
This does not mean that the benefits in this world are small, just like the current situation, although Su Xiao did not get the treasure chest, he directly obtained the benefits of the finished product.
At least until now, Su Xiao hasn't seen a treasure chest, of course, it is uncertain whether there is a treasure chest reward for killing enemies, and if you are lucky, it is not impossible to get it.
Su Xiao looked in the direction of the Holy City, this place was not too far from the Holy City, and the sound of the battle just now should have alarmed the city guards.
Opening the way from Bubuwang, Su Xiao marched in the direction of the Holy City, and before he had gone far, Bubuwang met the Holy City Guards head-on.
When the sky was already dark, Su Xiao returned to the right imperial castle, and from tonight's events, it could be seen that his enemy was not a soft persimmon.
Su Xiao didn't know who sent someone to assassinate him for the time being, as for investigating who was the traitor one by one, that was the stupidest method, once he did this, the old god stick, Wu Fu and the others would quickly fall apart with him, which would outweigh the losses.
Now that Bu Bu Wang has returned to the Right Imperial Manor, as long as the traitor dares to take action again, the possibility of being discovered by Bu Bu Wang is not low.
Moreover, Su Xiao's actions after that will be more secretive, Duke Silver Feather and Bloomer have been eliminated by him, as for the little duke and the princess Shayeto, Su Xiao will not touch them for the time being.
Su Xiao never forgot the purpose of his coming to this world, looking for violators, completing the main quest, and arriving in Dead City.
Completing the main quest doesn't necessarily have to kill the little duke and the princess, that's the situation in the first ring of the main quest, and in the second ring, Su Xiao can get the core of the world.
The reason why he chose to get rid of Bloomer was because this guy was too active and sent people to assassinate Su Xiao one after another, which had already affected Su Xiao's plan.
Now just wait for Bubuwang to recover its state, it can try to steal the core of the world in the palace, and once it succeeds, Su Xiao can use the core of the world as bait to fish the violators out, turning from passive to active.
As for entering the Dead City, it is not as the old god stick said, he must sit on the throne, in this matter, the old god stick obviously has his own selfish intentions.
Su Xiao had been able to break into Dead City through that black rust door before, but since the main quest and the violator's affairs had not yet been dealt with, he couldn't do that.
……
At two o'clock in the afternoon, inside the Imperial Diet Hall.
Knock, knock, knock......
Su Xiao's fingers lightly tapped the table, and opposite sat the princess Sayeto and the little duke, this meeting was requested by the little duke.
Sayeto on the other side kept looking at Su Xiao, he didn't know what he was thinking in his red pupils, while the little duke lowered his head and played with his fingers under the table.
"I ......"
The little duke broke the silence, he secretly glanced at Su Xiao and immediately looked away.
"I quit the Imperial Diet."
After the little duke said this, his heart was a little lost, and more relaxed, this feeling, like a primary school student after school on Friday, his heart was full of excitement, freedom, and joy and relaxation that could not be expressed in words.
The little duke was able to sit in this position, not because of his personal ability, but because of his father's widow, Chancellor of the Exchequer Walkley, who was the God of Wealth of the Empire.
And now, the little duke gave up the struggle for the throne, because he was afraid, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer Walkerley behind him was also afraid, this loyal old official was not greedy for life and afraid of death, he was afraid that the little duke would have an accident, then he would have no face to face the old duke after his death, the heroic man who knew him well.
It can be said that the current little duke is very afraid of Su Xiao, two days, just two days, Su Xiao killed Duke Yinyu and Bloomer, one in front of him, the other in secret, at this time in the little duke's heart, Su Xiao = source of terror = bad guy = super terrible = big demon king.
"As a royal family, are you afraid?"
Sayeto's fists clenched under the table.
"Hmm."
The little duke nodded without hesitation, and even peeled the shell candy for himself.
“……”
Sayeto was speechless for a moment, she ignored that this opponent was only nine years old, and although she didn't care about the other party, the chancellor of the exchequer behind the opponent was difficult to entangle.
"I won't be here again, your adult's world is so complicated."
The little duke jumped out of his seat, bypassed behind Shayeto, and walked towards the outside of the council hall, he was a little afraid to walk from Su Xiao's side.
As he walked out of the council hall, the little duke squinted at the sun in the sky, he had wanted to do this a long time ago, but his previous status did not allow him to be so naïve.
At this moment, the little duke regained some of his innocence, and a plump woman walked by on the street, attracting the little duke's gaze.
The little duke quickly looked away, rubbing his still sore buttocks, he had quietly experimented with a very beautiful little maid last night, they had just stripped naked and got into the quilt, and before they could take the crucial steps, the angry Chancellor of the Exchequer kicked open the door and pulled the little duke out, almost opening the little duke's buttocks, and the little duke was crying and promising never to do it again.
"The world of adults is so scary."
The little duke rubbed his buttocks again, and under the protection of the guards, he walked towards his own house.
Inside the Great Hall of Parliament.
Su Xiao had known that this situation would occur, and this morning, the Minister of Finance took the initiative to find him, on the grounds that he had allocated military funds in advance, and actually sent more than a dozen boxes of gold and silver products, the implication was that he supported Princess Pedella, and in return, Su Xiao could not touch the little duke, and the little duke would take the initiative to give up the fight for royal power.
"Don't think you've won, you'll kill me if you have the ability."
Sayeto, who was on the other side of the table, leaned forward, and the provocation could not have been more obvious.
"Sayato, do you have persecution paranoia?"
Su Xiao's words made Sayeto slightly puzzled, obviously, she didn't know what persecution paranoia meant.
"You're sick, you monster."
When Shayeto saw Su Xiao, she hated the root of her teeth, however, she couldn't help Su Xiao in terms of power.
"The kingship will never be in your hands, from the moment you put it on."
Shayeto pointed to the [Black King's Fall Sacrifice] on Su Xiao's left arm.
"It must be uncomfortable to get entangled in something there."
Shayeto chuckled and got up and walked out of the main hall, apparently knowing something about Dead City.
"It's going to be as soon as possible."
Su Xiao muttered, leaned back in his chair, and relaxed his whole body, the process of killing Duke Yinyu and Bloomer seemed to be easy, but in fact, he acted in a reckless manner, and the hidden dangers on both sides would soon erupt, which was also the main reason why other power grabbers couldn't fight him.
It's not that the two of them are incapable, but Su Xiao didn't give them a chance at all, it's like playing chess, when Su Xiao was playing chess with Duke Yinyu, he directly crossed the river with a pawn, and after turning five or six corners, he ate Duke Yinyu's handsomeness, Duke Yinyu's sentence that you cheated before you said it, it was already cold.
As for 'playing chess' with Bloomer, Su Xiao picked up his handsomeness, slapped Bloomer himself directly on the forehead, and slapped Bloomer to death on the chessboard, Bloomer's thoughts before his death were absolutely, isn't it playing chess, why do you use 'chess pieces' to shoot me.
The hidden danger of this is that the chess pieces of the two are still intact on the chessboard, and they will come to Su Xiao for revenge at any time.
"Whoever said I was going to play chess with you, it's checkers."
Su Xiao posted a message in the team channel and waited in the council hall.
At the same time, in the very center of the Holy City, under the tall porch, there are soldiers in black armor, their eyes are extremely sharp, and each momentum is not weak, maybe even if all the guards + front-line troops of the Holy City are mobilized, they will not be able to break through the defense line of these black armor troops, they are waiting for the new king to appear.
In front of a black-armored soldier, Bubuwang, who had blended into the environment, raised his claws and waved to greet the soldier, but the black-armored soldier couldn't see Bubuwang at all.
"Wang?"
Bu Bu Wang tried again, but the black-armored soldier still didn't respond, which made Bu Bu Wang feel relieved and infiltrated the palace battle, which was the beginning!
Bu Bu Wang was still very confident in infiltrating, however, Su Xiao and Bu Bu Wang were still unclear about one thing, that is, the palace of the Holy City was actually no less dangerous than that of the Dead City.
