Will the Lost Sword Saint also appear there?" asked Sean curiously.

"No, for the sake of safety, there will definitely be no second person to climb that tower tonight except for His Majesty the Emperor, and Lord Ophelas will usually appear on the slightly lower tower about a hundred meters next to it. Killian pointed.

As he spoke, the fireworks in the sky gradually fell, and the fireworks festival was nearing its end, and according to the normal process, His Majesty the Emperor should be about to appear on the platform of the golden tower at this time.

"Killian, you're going to be slapped in the face!" said Alfie, who had been staring at the remote magnifying glass.

As soon as Killian was about to ask why, the sight in the long-range magnifying glass had already told him the answer: His Majesty the Emperor's personal attendant, Old Gates, appeared on the platform pushing a golden wheelchair, and His Majesty Rey III, the Emperor's face was as ashen as he was sitting in the wheelchair.

His Majesty the Emperor is sick?Killian couldn't believe that this frail old man with a dejected face in the remote magnifying glass was actually the mighty Rey III, but that familiar face told him that this could not be faked!

Those with good eyesight had already discovered that there was an unprecedented second person on the royal tower besides the emperor, and when the news gradually spread among the crowd, the entire palace square suddenly became boiling. Except for Alfie and others, who had special props, no one could see clearly who was on the platform of the royal tower hundreds of meters away, not even the magicians who were responsible for unleashing the magical fireworks.

Only the crown inlaid with countless brilliant gems on the head of Rey III announced that His Majesty the Emperor still appeared on the royal tower as promised at this time, and as for the guy behind him who tried his best to hide in the shadow of His Majesty the Emperor, except for Alfie and others, his identity is unknown for the time being.

"Killian, can you be sure it's Rey III himself in the wheelchair?" Alfie asked in a solemn whisper.

"If your remote magnifier is fine. Killian replied with an extremely ugly expression.

"Why did His Majesty the Emperor become like this?" Sean's voice began to tremble, a civilian like him has been growing up under the brainwashing propaganda of "His Majesty the Emperor is extremely wise" and "Rey III is physically strong and has excellent combat power" since he was a child, in their minds, Rey III is almost omnipotent, immortal existence, and now they suddenly find that even great Rey III has such a weak time like ordinary people, which is tantamount to shattering Rey III's mythical status in the minds of most people.

"So that rumor is true!" Killian apparently knew more about it than most.

"What rumors?" asked Alfie immediately.

"A few months ago, there was a rumor in the palace that His Majesty the Emperor was seriously ill and was afraid that his life would not last long, so he hurriedly advanced the opening ceremony of Port Royal by a whole year. Killian seemed to remember something bad, and his face was gloomy as if he could drip water, "After this rumor spread, there are many more unjust souls in the palace, and it is said that many corpses are smuggled out of the palace every day. During that time, my father seemed to be ten years old. ”

"Any rumors will not be groundless, looking at His Majesty the Emperor's situation today, I am afraid that he is really terminally ill. Alfie adjusted the angle of the remote magnifying glass, focusing on the pale face of Rey III, and found that the former lord was now blind, and if it weren't for the fact that his nostrils were still slightly fluttering, he was still alive, no different from a zombie.

"How could His Majesty the Emperor be struck down so easily by the Devil of Illness? Master Madison has returned to the Imperial Capital, there must be some potion that can cure His Majesty the Emperor. Sean said with a little excitement, he thought that Master Madison's sudden return to the imperial capital at this time must have something to do with Rey III's illness.

Sean wisely did not mention the Holy See Branch, in fact, divine magic is the first choice after encountering injuries on the Iliad Continent, but thinking about the tension between the royal power and the divine right now, I also know that at this time, the Holy See Branch did not fall into the well It is already a manifestation of the benevolence of the Lord of Light, if you want the Holy See Branch to treat Rey III, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky, thinking about it from another angle, Rey III may not be relieved to let someone from the Holy See Branch to treat him.

"Sean, you're thinking too optimistically. Even if Master Madison is already a pharmacist in the Holy Realm, if he wants to cure His Majesty the Emperor, I am afraid that there may not be a symptomatic potion. Alfie was extremely unoptimistic about Master Madison's methods, as far as he knew, Master Madison's research direction was more inclined to auxiliary potion research, and he knew very little about the medicine to treat the disease, otherwise he would not have been helpless by Christopher's incurable disease.

This is not Master Madison's fault, in the Holy See's prevalent continent of Eliat, it is very unwise to focus on the research of potions to cure diseases, and divine magic does have an incomparable advantage in this regard.

"Isn't His Majesty the Emperor hopeless?" Sean felt a pang of fear for no apparent reason, he didn't know what it would mean for the entire empire if Rey III died at this time. According to the laws of history, whenever the imperial power changes, the entire empire will usher in a period of turmoil. For the top, this is the best time to compete for power and redraw spheres of influence, but for civilians it is a real disaster.

What's more, the empire now appears to be more peaceful and powerful than ever: the Duchy of Bavaria, which posed the greatest threat to the empire, has been destroyed by natural disasters, the branch of the Holy See has also been suppressed by the empire, and the Royal Port and the Grand Canal are about to be built, and the Empire's invincible armada can reach the imperial capital directly...... But even a small person like Sean understands that all of this is tied to Rey III, and if Rey III dies at this time, all the good things in the empire at this time will be wiped out in an instant.

If Rey III dies, in order to stabilize the situation, Marshal Sebastian will definitely be forced to sit in the imperial capital, and only after the new emperor ascends the throne and the throne is secure, can he make other plans. Moreover, the other major forces in the imperial capital will never settle down, not to mention whether the old prime minister who holds a lot of power will be able to reach an agreement with the imperial military department at that time; will the noble alliance jump out to fight for power and profit at this time; will the assassin alliance that has been lurking secretly to develop its strength make any unexpected moves; will the branch of the Holy See that is already on the verge of collapse be resurrected; how will the magic academy that suddenly increased in strength choose; and most importantly, what is the attitude of the Lost Sword Saint Ophelas?
