Chapter 171: Heading to the Imperial Palace
Hearing Arthur's answer, Carl smiled, and the two of them looked at each other tacitly, and Carl also had a general understanding of Arthur's plan.
He was not stupid, but through a few words with Arthur, he roughly understood Arthur's current situation and plans.
In terms of goals, Arthur must take the throne of the Gamma Empire from the hands of the eldest prince, and perhaps personally kill the eldest prince and queen to avenge his mother, whom he has never met.
In terms of feasibility, Arthur would definitely be considered crazy by others. But...... But he is in the turbulent imperial capital, and he has lived peacefully until now.
Not only did he succeed in getting acquainted with a Templar-level warrior, but he even got mixed up like a fish in water in the Inquisition.
Judging from Arthur's current state, perhaps the person in charge of the adjudication office will still be on Arthur's side in the end.
In this way, Arthur's side already has 2 Templar-level War Spirit Warriors, and although the eldest prince has 6 Templar-level War Spirit Warriors to help, Arthur still has the strength of the Judgment Office for him to use.
In this way, the most powerful legions in the entire imperial capital will stand behind Arthur, and as for the other scattered troops, they really have no resistance at all in front of the verdict of all the warriors.
So now, in Carl's heart, even if Arthur is still on the weak side for the time being, the chips he already has in his hands are indeed not to be underestimated.
And the reason why Arthur said that to Carl was that it was obvious that he was setting his eyes on the Sword and Shield Coalition.
That's right, as long as the three major legions of the Gamma Empire are all standing behind him, let alone seizing the succession to the throne of the Gamma Empire, even if it is possible to directly subvert the rule of Emperor Caesar.
Of course, this is without counting the strength of the Caesar Emperor Phantom God level, after all, for this level of War Spirit Warrior, no one has ever seen their true level.
Phantom God level, can it turn things around with the power of one person?
This, like a sharp blade hanging over his head, was always awakening Arthur.
Until the last moment when he was fully prepared, Arthur would not easily reveal his ambitions and plans in front of Emperor Caesar, even if the other party was his father......
"Admiral Daven values me, but only because I inherited his brother's war spirit...... And with my current strength, I still don't have enough say in the entire Sword and Shield Combined Army......"
Karl explained with some wistfulness that the reason why he had to make it so clear to Arthur was that he was afraid that Arthur would make a wrong judgment about the role he could play.
For the plan he is about to make, the slightest mistake may directly lead to a total loss.
At that time, Arthur will not be the only one who will lose, and those who choose to stand behind Arthur will probably not end well.
After listening to Carl's answer, Arthur also shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You're right, even if we have more chips in our hands......
As long as our own strength does not reach a sufficient level, even if I am already on the throne, those people will forcibly pull me down from the throne. ”
Karl shrugged helplessly, this is a very real question, after all, with Arthur's current strength, it is indeed not suitable to be the king of the human empire.
Have you ever heard of an empire with only 5 spirit levels? If you say it, you won't be laughed off!
Seeing that it was getting late, Arthur finally decided to talk to Carl here for the time being, and it was useless to talk about the rest.
After all, for a title-level War Spirit warrior who only had 5 spirits and only had one awakening, those plans were still too far away.
Your own strength is the most fundamental factor that can determine the result!
"Okay, it's not early, I'll take you to find a place to rest first, but I have to go to the Imperial Palace early tomorrow morning to accept the reward of Emperor Caesar's military exploits!"
"No, do you want Emperor Caesar to reward him personally?" Karl asked with some curiosity.
"Of course, with your own strength, you can solve an enemy of Leviathan's level and successfully save the team in the ancient city, which is a great achievement!"
"In addition, now that the counterattack has just begun, Emperor Caesar needs to reward the warriors who fought bravely on the front line."
"I see, no wonder this time in order to reward me, so excited." Carl was well aware of this.
"But......" Arthur changed his tone and continued with a wry smile, "In the process of receiving the reward tomorrow, the eldest prince will definitely not stand idly by, especially now that he has included you in my sphere of influence, he will spare no effort to stop you from receiving the reward!" ”
Karl smiled slightly, pretending not to know the trap in Arthur's words, and replied directly and easily: "Then let him come, I want to see what kind of trouble he will cause me." ”
And Arthur heard that Carl did not reject his "sphere of influence", and a happy smile suddenly appeared on his face.
He nodded, and said very seriously: "Don't worry, since you are 'your own person', I will naturally strive for the greatest interests for you!" ”
……
The next day, Arthur took his subordinates early and quickly arrived at Carl's temporary residence.
Karl was awakened by Arthur's knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he was startled by several people behind Arthur.
"Good fellow, isn't it just going to the Imperial Palace to meet Emperor Caesar? Do you need to bring these three buddies with you? ”
Karl looked at the three familiar faces behind Arthur and said with some disapproval.
Arthur smiled slightly and explained to Carl: "The Imperial Palace is not as simple as you think...... If it weren't for the rules of the Imperial Palace, I would sometimes even want to go in with the entire Judgment Office. ”
"Could it be that in the Imperial Palace, without the order of Emperor Caesar, there are other people who dare to do it casually?" Karl raised his eyebrows, and instantly came to his senses.
"Although it doesn't exist under normal circumstances, it doesn't mean that the eldest prince won't be angry, and at this time, it's better to be careful."
Arthur explained indifferently, then pointed to the three people behind him, and began to formally introduce Carl:
"You've seen these three people too, and I'll officially introduce them to you this time."
"This tall and strong one, his name is Iron Man Baker, and this one who looks a little obscene, his name is Black Cloud Angus...... As for this one, the name is Kamikaze Norman. The three of them were all guards assigned to me by the ruling, and they were all hero-level warriors. ”
Carl nodded, these three had seen it before, and there was a little conflict with them at that time, Carl, who was not afraid of tigers as newborn calves, was subdued by these three warriors almost instantly.
But now after Arthur's introduction, Carl knows that these three people are already hero-level existences.
No wonder Karl, who had not yet broken through the Nine Spirits at that time, would be paid on the spot so easily.
After thinking about it, Carl looked at Iron Man Baker with some curiosity, and asked, "Beck, how come I seem to have heard exactly the same title of you somewhere......"
Baker smiled and replied quickly, "You're talking about Gail, the Iron Man!" That's right, we have the same title, but our abilities are different! ”
After saying that, Baker clenched his right hand into a fist, and the entire arm was instantly covered by a large black iron object.
Baker looked at Carl and explained, "Gail's iron is cold iron, and mine is meteoric iron, so I'm much better than him in terms of hardness!" ”
Carlton nodded clearly, indeed, judging from the iron on Baker's arm, it was definitely not comparable to Gael's cold iron armor.
"Okay, you have to get acquainted with each other in the future, there are still many opportunities, it's not too early, we have to leave as soon as possible!"
After saying that, Arthur led a few people to the outside of the residence, and under his command, everyone got into an armed jeep.
Arthur, who was sitting in the back seat with Carl, noticed Carl's puzzled expression and explained with a smile: "Because the area of the imperial capital is so large, if you rely on walking, you can't reach your destination even if you walk all day. Therefore, there are many times when you need to use vehicles such as vehicles to get around. ”
"But why didn't you see anything like this last night......" Carl looked around and noticed that there was a civilian scooter driving by on the street from time to time.
Arthur let out a chuckle and quickly explained, "That's because the Imperial Capital doesn't allow such maneuvering vehicles at night......"
Carl shrugged helplessly, since he had said so, it didn't make much sense for him to dwell on it anymore.
"By the way, Carl, give me the channel of your electronic communicator, sometimes it is more convenient to use the electronic communicator to contact!"
After that, Arthur stretched out the electronic communicator on his wrist to establish communication with Carl.
Carl looked embarrassed, he looked up at Arthur, and reminded him: "Isn't this kind of electronic communicator easy to be intercepted by others?" Aren't you afraid of being intercepted from us? ”
Arthur smiled, shook his head, and pressed his right hand on the electronic communicator a few times, and a line of words appeared on the screen: A dedicated communication channel has been entered.
Under Carl's curious gaze, Arthur smiled and explained to him: "This is a communication channel that I found someone to create, and no one else can intercept it except me and the person I contacted. ”
Carl could only muttered helplessly in his heart: Maybe this is the verdict. Then he stretched out his electronic communicator.
With a single click, the electronic communication between Carl and Arthur was successfully established.
"In order not to attract the attention of other interested people, we usually try to reduce electronic communication as much as possible."
"Don't worry, it's better not to contact each other until the critical moment." Carl nodded, agreeing.
After confirming some details, Arthur patted the car board, and Baker, the iron man sitting in the driver's seat, kicked the accelerator and started the military jeep.
With the help of this opportunity, Karl once again successfully enjoyed the scenery of the imperial capital in the daytime environment.
Whether it is the prosperous street or the unique temperament on the faces of the residents, it is a different scenery in the imperial capital.
However, because of the recent counterattack, there are many more soldiers in the imperial capital who patrol the streets.
In Arthur's words: "Even if they are far inland in the empire, those pampered nobles are still afraid that there will be Zeg Zerg or Worm Slaves infiltrating the imperial capital. ”
"So at their request, the warriors of the Inquisition's Warriors have now begun to patrol with the city defense forces."
And what shocked Carl the most was that every time they passed a block in their military jeep, the soldiers of the Inquisition Institute on the road would consciously salute their jeep.
Karl turned his head and glanced at the rank on Arthur's body, which was only a sergeant rank, but why did those warriors who had even been promoted to captains and colonels also salute Arthur.
It seems that Arthur's status in the adjudication office has really reached an extremely high level......
