Chapter 172: Rivalry (1)
The military jeep came all the way to the gate of the Imperial Palace, and under the strict guard of the sentry at the door, Karl and the five of them could only get down from the military jeep honestly.
Imperial law stipulates that in the Imperial Palace, including Emperor Caesar, all people can only choose to move on foot, and no transportation vehicles are allowed.
Arthur didn't show a surprised expression at this, it seems that he has been in and out of this imperial palace a lot.
He casually greeted the sentry in front of the door, and the sentry went directly to open the military jeep and drove the vehicle away quickly.
Under Karl's gaze, Arthur chuckled and explained softly, "You don't think that there are no people from me in this sentry in the Imperial Palace, do you?" ”
Carl could only smile helplessly at this, the battle between Arthur and the eldest prince did not expect to reach this level.
If Arthur was able to install his own men in the sentinels of the Imperial Palace, would the Grand Prince let this opportunity go?
Sure enough, when Carl and his party walked into the interior of the Imperial Palace, the sentinels belonging to the faction of the eldest prince immediately surrounded them.
"Arthur?" Karl looked at the ill-intentioned sentries in front of him, and asked with some surprise.
Arthur shook his head with a sneer, indicating that there was no need to worry.
Then he took a step forward, and then said proudly: "The ruling is done, and the idlers are gone!" ”
Judging from Arthur's appearance, he should have used this phrase a lot on weekdays, but this is not an ordinary area outside.
When this small group of sentries heard this, they all showed a sneer, and the sentry in the lead said directly:
"What kind of tribunal, we don't know the Imperial Palace! Idle people, etc., are not allowed to break into the Imperial Palace! ”
As soon as they heard this, the three of them, Iron Man Baker, immediately showed a dissatisfied expression. They have never encountered such a faceless situation!
Arthur glanced at the lead sentry, but he was always staring at him, but it was the protagonist Carl, but he didn't care at all.
Thinking that it should be sent by the eldest prince to stop himself and others, Arthur's thoughts turned in his heart, and he directly sneered and said:
"Behind me is Sergeant Karl from the reconquest of the ancient city, this is the Emperor Caesar himself, and you are sure to block our way?"
When the leading sentry heard this, his heart suddenly tightened, he had indeed heard in the past few days, Emperor Caesar had personally announced that he must give Carl a reward.
However, most of the people in the imperial capital had never seen Carl, and the sentry turned his head to see that his age and military uniform were indeed more in line with Carl's identity.
But...... If he let them go so easily, then how could he complete the task given to them by the eldest prince?
So he still made an unconcerned expression, and then said arrogantly: "What Karl? How come we've never heard of it? Boy, I'll tell you one last time: the Imperial Palace, idle people, etc., are not allowed to enter! ”
Listening to the sentry's answer, Arthur also frowned, raised his left wrist, looked at the time, and immediately scolded impatiently.
As a result, when his gaze was just raised, it was as if he had seen something, and the whole person no longer showed that anxious expression.
On the contrary, the sentry was still unwilling to stop and urged, "What's wrong? Do you want me to find someone to kick you out? What is the matter with the current Imperial Palace, where do the mongrels come from can break into it. ”
The word mongrel must have been taught to these sentinels by the eldest prince on weekdays, so they said it to Arthur so unscrupulously at this time.
However, at any time, such a provocation and insult to a warrior spirit warrior is undoubtedly an extremely serious act.
Arthur, who was still a little calm just now, is now cold, even Carl, who is standing on the side, can feel the killing intent he is now exuding.
Iron Man Baker and the three warriors of the War Spirit also slowly leaned towards Arthur's side at this time.
With their hero-level strength, it hardly takes a second to take out this group of sentinels.
Noticing Arthur's movements, the sentry still shouted arrogantly, "What's the matter, boy, do you still want to do it here?" This is the Imperial Palace! But it's not your turn to be a mongrel! ”
But he didn't know that even if Arthur and the others really did it, killing an ordinary sentry like him would be a trivial matter......
As a result, before Arthur could make a move, a black shadow appeared and slapped the sentry in the face.
Syllable!
The sound of crisp slaps echoed throughout the area at this moment.
The sentry was slapped in the face, and the whole person was instantly blinded, and finally came back to his senses, wanting to see who was so bold.
After seeing the identity of the other party, he shivered all over, and bowed his head resignedly and said, "Report to the chief, I am on a security patrol mission, please give instructions." ”
The commander sneered and snorted disdainfully, "Security patrol mission? You're very dedicated! ”
The sentry didn't dare to say anything more, still honestly keeping his head down.
The chief sneered and continued, "Since you love your job, then please tell me why you have already notified you many times, but you turn a blind eye?" ”
"Report to the sent, I'm ......" The sentries were trembling with fear at this time, and they didn't dare to look at each other with this commander.
"All right, Maurice! Since these people are not qualified to become sentinels of the Imperial Palace at all, let's deal with them as soon as possible! ”
Arthur sneered at this time and made a suggestion, and after saying a word, the sentries suddenly showed a frightened expression.
Morris smiled slightly, and then said with an indifferent expression: "You go to the logistics office to settle the salary, the Imperial Palace no longer needs you!" ”
"Huh? Sir, you can't do that! We ......," the leading sentry shouted dissatisfied, but halfway through the shout, Morris scolded.
Then a powerful energy erupted from his body, directly blowing the noisy sentries to the ground.
It's so strong, and it's also a master...... Carl felt the momentum on Morris and looked at Arthur with some surprise.
He couldn't understand why Maurice, a sentinel manager of the Imperial Palace, would help Arthur in this way.
Arthur noticed Carl's confusion and chuckled and said, "Obviously, Maurice is also my man, although he has installed his own personnel in the sentries, but I am always one step ahead of the eldest prince!" ”
Is this true, the Great Prince is on the second floor, and Arthur is on the fifth floor...... Karl looked at Arthur a little speechless.
After dealing with these sentinels, Maurice turned back and nodded at Arthur, and then said, "You are Karl, hurry up, Emperor Caesar has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
Karl nodded, and under the leadership of Morris, he quickly walked towards the innermost part of the Imperial Palace.
Originally, there were other sentries along the way, and when they saw Arthur and his party, they rushed up to stop them on the spot.
But when they saw Morris, the head of the sentry, personally leading the team, they all looked embarrassed, and almost none of them dared to come up and stop them.
"What to do? Do you want to watch them break into the Imperial Palace like this? Today, the eldest prince specially instructed us to stop them. ”
"How can you stop it, this is a nightmare, Maurice personally led the team! If I want to stop you, I won't go anyway! ”
"Who dares to go, I heard that in the front gate area, there was a team of sentries to intercept them, and they were directly expelled from the sentry team by Morris!"
For a while, the peepers around looked at Carl and his party very helplessly, and the repressive power and power of the nightmare Morris were too terrifying.
Without anyone stopping them, Karl and the others successfully arrived at the last palace of the Imperial Palace, which is also the place where Emperor Caesar lived and handled affairs.
Bringing Arthur and the others to the palace gate, Morris said with a smile: "Go in, according to the rules, it will not be my turn to take care of this." ”
Karl listened to it, and there was something in it! It's not his turn to take care of this, which means that the outside is all under his Morris's control, right?
Unexpectedly, Arthur just smiled slightly, nodded very calmly, and said hello to Carl, and the five of them left Maurice and officially stepped into the palace.
Perhaps in order to expand the influence of personally rewarding Karl, there was now a large group of people standing densely on both sides of the palace in this last palace.
In the middle of the palace, there were four people sitting and one person standing.
Standing is naturally the eldest prince that Karl has already seen, and he can stand in the middle area, which can be regarded as in line with his identity as the only heir to Emperor Caesar.
On the 4 seats on the side, there are 4 men with aging faces.
Judging by the way they were dressed, Karl quickly recognized which one was Emperor Caesar.
After all, although these 4 people are brightly dressed, they are still slightly different after all. As the emperor, Julius Caesar, whether it is in the seat or in the clothes, there is obviously a trace of imperial domineering.
As for the other three old men, they may be the three Templar-level War Spirit Warriors who have been with Emperor Caesar until now!
It's just that at this age, how much strength can a Templar-level Battle Spirit Warrior exert himself? Carl looked at the four old men in front of him, and there was some curiosity in his heart.
As for Julius Caesar, judging from his appearance and demeanor, although he is still domineering, he still can't resist the ravages of time after all.
This human emperor who single-handedly created the Gamma Empire and saved humanity from the hands of the Zeg Zerg can only be described by the word aging dragon clock.
The twilight of the hero is really a little sad......
When Carl and his party entered the palace, everyone inside was completely silent.
It was the first time that so many people were neatly watching, and Carl felt a little embarrassed that he was not used to.
Arthur, on the other hand, walked forward very naturally at this moment, bowed to the four old men in front of him, and then spoke:
"Sergeant Karl of the Sword and Shield Combine has been brought, my king."
Emperor Caesar coughed lightly, and said in an old voice, "Son, you did a good job...... Which one is Sergeant Karl, please step forward. ”
Arthur quickly stepped aside, and turned out to be on the other side, just like the eldest prince.
Karl glanced at Arthur, and at this time he could only walk forward silently, and came to a sufficient distance to face the four old men above.
These four old men are obviously the four most powerful people in the Gamma Empire at present.
If it were someone else, in this environment, I am afraid that even my legs would tremble when these four people were watching.
But Carl didn't know why, but a mentality rose in his heart in time, which was a king's mentality, a mentality that did not allow him to show weakness to others.
However, this is the Emperor's Palace, and it is Caesar the Emperor who stands in front of him!
Even Arthur bowed just now to show his respect for Emperor Caesar.
But Karl, just standing in a daze, didn't mean to salute at all, this time, the eldest prince was very happy!
