The imperial capital of the Upper Town, Javier's home.

In the conference room, Lan sat down with the latest report in his hand, reporting the final result of this operation to Javier, who had just returned to the imperial capital.

Javier just sat quietly, his purple eyes indifferent, as if hearing nothing was enough to move him.

But from the occasional bruises on the back of his hand on the desk, it can be seen that his mood is not really as calm as it seems.

According to the latest information, the seventeen civilian officials who came to the imperial capital were attacked and killed on the way, and although the "Shadow" troops were fully protected, nine people still died.

One of the most influential of them was the great nobleman Wharton Dardanelle, which was undoubtedly a rather painful blow to the conscience.

On the other hand, the damage of the "Shadow" troops was also quite heavy, with more than half of the casualties, and even three squads were completely wiped out, which shows that the enemy is strong.

It seems that the minister is indeed forced to be in a hurry this time, and it is completely a rhythm of playing with death.

However, although it was a heavy blow, the minister's side would definitely not feel good, and the soldiers of the "Shadow" troops were all elite soldiers from a hundred, and it was impossible to kill them without paying a heavy price.

"I didn't expect it...... Even Urna ......"

Javier's eyes gradually turned cold, exuding a chill like an autumn wind.

Urna was one of the best of his subordinates, and even he didn't survive, which only shows that the minister also has an unknown weapon in his hands, which is a force that even the top ministers are not enough to fight against.

Lan placed an object wrapped in a white cloth on the table, and a dull sound came out of it when it was set aside, and it was obvious that it was not a light thing.

Javier unfolded the white cloth, and inside was a large pistol with a jet-black and metallic texture, and the exaggerated shape showed that it was absolutely full of firepower.

Furnishings, pitch-black spirals.

"This is recovered from the dragon boat...... The relics of Captain Ulna. ”

Lan's eyes were also sad, just before the operation began, he had a few words with this upright soldier, and he had a very good impression of him, but he didn't expect that when he came back, he had turned into a corpse that couldn't bear to look at directly.

After a moment of silence, Javier suddenly asked, "How did he die?" ”

"Based on the circumstances at the scene, the intelligence officers determined that Captain Urna had died from a gunshot attack...... And the murder weapon was this courtier's weapon, Captain Ulner's own weapon. ”

Lang paused, considering his words.

"According to the intelligence officer, when the body was found, the pistol was still firmly held in Captain Ulner's hand, and he took it down with great difficulty, and it can be judged that the captain fired the gun himself."

Hearing this, Javier's sword eyebrows raised, and then locked together, as if thinking about something: "First of all, the possibility of suicide can be ruled out, and then the result is that the other party has the ability to reflect flying props similar to your 'God Feather'." Or is it that the killer can directly control someone else's body and make him commit suicide? ”

Through subtle clues, Javier almost guessed the correct answer.

Lan nodded slightly, agreeing with this idea: "Anyway, the possibility that the other party is the emperor's envoy is extremely high, and it must be paid enough attention...... I'm going to continue to investigate the identity of this person, and there are a lot of people in the minister's power that we've planted, and if you make use of these information networks, we'll be able to find clues. ”

"Then please."

Seeing that Javier had nothing else to order, Lan bowed slightly and walked out the door.

As soon as he walked to the door, he heard Javier say: "By the way, the 'Falcon' will add two new members in the near future, you can inform everyone first, I plan to hold a welcome party." ”

"I see."

With a sound in his mouth, Lan Shun closed the door of the conference room.

……

After Lan left, Javier was the only one left in the room, and it was so quiet that no sound could be heard.

His body leaned back, and he collapsed on the back of his chair as if he were a little tired, and sat there silently, letting time slip away.

The purple eyes, which were shining sharply all the time, seemed to have become much darker at this moment, and he looked out the window with some distraction.

Javier gives the impression of the kind of man of steel who never lets up, and his erect body seems to be able to carry all the weight of this world, which will make those who stay around him feel very reassured.

But there are occasional times when in an empty corner, a man named Javier Salmondo sheds his strong exterior and reveals his inner weakness.

"Really, I can't get used to this kind of thing no matter how many times I come......

Stroking the large-caliber pistol in his hand, many familiar faces suddenly appeared in front of Javier's eyes.

There was Urnah, there were the soldiers who died in the line of duty, and there were comrades who died on the battlefield a long time ago.

Death is all too common.

From the beginning of unacceptability, to the current self-paralysis, the human spirit will always subconsciously make changes in favor of itself.

But every time at this time, I still feel that there is a missing piece in my heart.

Havel would often say this to his men—

The only people who can survive on the battlefield are the strong, and the weak ones will eventually be eliminated, so if you don't want to die, you can become stronger!

Then he often saw his group of rough men sweating and screaming on the training ground.

As a direct result, the army he led became the famous empire's tiger and wolf army, and there was no legion that was not afraid of three points.

Yet death continued, like the most vicious curse, enveloping him forever.

But there is no way to do this, how can there be immortals in war?

So since then, Javier had such a dream in his heart, he wanted to put an end to the war in the Empire.

This is not a realistic proposal, at least for now.

There are too many elements that can cause war, rebel armies, foreign peoples, tranquility and the Western Kingdom, how many potential enemies there are.

So there is only one thing Javier Salmondo can do to fulfill his wishes.

Stop the war with war, stop the war with go!

The first step is to crusade against the ministers, gather the living forces of the empire, and prepare them for battle.

Then it is to suppress the rebellion of the revolutionary army by thunderous means, and if the alien people and the Tao of Tranquility are not honest, they will also be exterminated by the way!

Finally, there are the Empire's old neighbors, the Western Kingdoms, who have always coveted the Empire's fertile lands. For this potentially powerful enemy, Javier had already drawn up more than a dozen plans in his mind to capture the opponent's royal city, and when the time came, he would make them doomed!

In short, the most effective way to completely extinguish the flames of war is to eradicate the seeds of war, which are barbaric but highly feasible, and much more reliable than those so-called alliances, contracts, etc.

"It's almost ...... I'll put an end to it all with my own hands, whether it's this crazy empire or this crazy world! ”

Muttering to himself, Javier's eyes regained clarity, and became as tough and cold as steel again.
