Chapter 184: The Scarlet Carpet
Royal Naval College
Macallan sat on the sofa with a pale face, picked up the glass on the low table in front of him with a heavy breath, and shivered and took out the delicate iron box from the pocket of his suit, shook out the pill prepared inside, and swallowed it with transparent water.
After taking the evil words, his body gained unprecedented vitality, like a rotten wood in spring, and the vitality once again descended on this old body, giving him enough strength to complete the final step and clear the way for the enthronement of the King of the Deep Sea. But this is all about quenching your thirst by drinking a donkey, and using the way of burning to make the flame of life more vigorous.
The iron box is filled with tranquilizers, in order to suppress the hot feeling in the body after drinking bad words. Just now, he was like a sparkling explosive barrel, which could explode at any time. And the pill is like a basin of ice water, extinguishing all the crises with ice.
He gasped slightly, his eyes glowing with fire slowly calming down as calm as water. Leaning back on the soft cushion behind his head, he sighed softly as he looked at the ornate lights in the center of the ceiling.
"Headmaster, it's okay." Scar, who was standing at the door, gently slammed the door, his solemn face revealing concern.
The old man in front of him, who had ambitions, took poison in order to realize his ambitions, and he was fully aware of this. And he also tried to persuade, but although Mercaren was old, no one could make him change his mind about what he decided, like a stubborn stubborn stone.
"It's fine, it's just that I'm showing symptoms after taking Secret Words." Mecaren shook her head slightly to indicate that she was okay, "Have you started planning now?" He asked the young man in front of him, waiting for his answer.
"It has been carried out according to the plan, the major nobles have been completely bought by us, and now the front line can be regarded as a door opening except for the dozen or so ship ladies left in the Governor's Palace, as long as this battle is lost, the road to the deep sea is completely unimpeded." The current situation is that all the fighting townsmen have been strictly ordered to give up resistance and not fight no matter what happens. After all, all the admirals were the noble sons of the family, and they had to accept the orders of the family elders.
And now the only thing they have to do is wait, wait for the news that the only variable is to be defeated by the newborn deep sea, those cold and ruthless creatures have arrived, and in the end, the only end for these founding heroes is death. The deep sea never tells people any reason and human feelings, and humans are aliens in their eyes that should be eliminated, no matter how much they have paid for the king's accession to the throne.
"So all we have to do now is wait?" Mecaren asked, with uncertainty in her tone. Although he believed that Jiqi would not have a chance to win in the face of the powerful deep sea, there were no absolutes, and no one knew what kind of crazy move that uncertain factor would make.
He is not the stupid Xu Kai, but the Jiqi who can destroy everything for the sake of the ship's mother, he won't care how others humiliate him, but as long as you touch his reverse scales, what awaits you will be immortal, endlessly.
"As things stand, that's true." Scar nodded in agreement, they could control the movements of the entire human race, but they would not be able to confront the shipwives head-on. After all, those girls who have an iron will don't want to be easily bought with money like humans.
"And Scar, do you think they will win or lose?" Mecarron asked softly.
"Doesn't this headmaster already have the result in mind?" He bent down in reply. Although he also felt that the old man in front of him was a madman who could give everything for the dream in his heart, he should be able to clearly know his odds, instead of being as confused as he is now.
But looking at the old man's uncertain eyes, he didn't have any confidence in his heart about this crazy decision.
"I don't have the slightest result in mind, and I don't have any chance of winning." Mercaren chuckled and shook his head, he knew that the young man in front of him would think that he was the kind of fox who was scheming, but in fact, he was not even a fox, just a madman who dared to fight hard when he saw a little hope, and this time it was the same, he did not have an absolute chance of winning, not even fifty percent sure.
But he still made his own decision and fought for his life.
"Headmaster, you...... Is this a joke? Scar chuckled, shaking his head in disbelief.
"I'm not joking, I really don't have any confidence in this time."
"Then why would the headmaster rather pay such a big price, even with Director Theodore's life, didn't the headmaster calculate the risk before making a decision?" He now knew that he had been following in the footsteps of a madman from beginning to end, going crazy with him, and he had not realized it all the time.
"Theodore's thing, it was an accident I didn't expect." Mercaren sighed, looking at the ceiling in a sighing tone, his tearful eyes as if remembering the old friend who had died for his crazy cause. "I didn't expect him to die like that, even in the end we didn't give him a beautiful funeral, not even a simple funeral, only the collapsed iceberg to accompany him to sleep."
"Is it possible for the principal to be in front of the principal's plan...... Just sacrifice the chess pieces? He couldn't help but ask loudly, wanting to ask this old man he had been following if he was also a pawn in his heart that could be sacrificed.
"You're right," Macallen did not deny, in his opinion, everyone is indeed a pawn that can be sacrificed at will, as long as it is for the dream in his heart, including himself. "Everyone is a pawn that can be sacrificed, including me, and if necessary, I can be sacrificed."
"That's why the headmaster doesn't hesitate to drink the code words that haven't yet entered the experimental stage?" He understands now that the moment the other party drank the secret words, he decided to use his last life to pave the way for the king's accession to the throne, like a stepping stone without regrets.
"Secret words are my last hope, I don't want to use my old body to meet the enthroned king." He stood up and chuckled, looking at Scar's gaze still determined and confident.
"So why not just die?"
"I've now thrown everything I can into it, just like the teenager who stood on the stage and built it, putting in all the resources I could have, just hoping that the end result would be as I wished." Mercaren said that he remembered the boy who cowered and stood on the stage of the ceremony, after countless days and nights of hard work, and suffered countless ridicule, but in the end it was the boy who was never looked down upon to get that honor.
When I used to tell others what I thought, I still got ridicule and ridicule, but now the whole world has proved for itself that as long as a person is ambitious and willing to pay for his dreams, he will one day get what he wants, even if it is the whole world.
"Now I am laying out the bright red carpet for the king's enthronement." He looked out the window at the blue sky, and said in a low voice, into the demon with open wings.
