The capital of the empire was later relocated to the ground to be established.

After docking the ship near a hidden bay, Empress Isabella re-piloted a warplane and led the group towards the imperial capital.

The ship is too large to be completely concealed.

The fighter named 'Thunderbird' has the most advanced optical stealth device, which is enough for them to safely enter the imperial capital. On the way, Empress Isabella also briefly told Su Ziyu and Shar about some things about the Cult of the Mechanicus, in short, this is an organization with a big tail, after the failure of the Psionic Ascension, the emperor of the empire needed to use the power of religion to appease the hearts of the people, the Cult of the Mechanicus rose at that time, they inherited some of the teachings and technology from the ruins of the ancient lost empire, and rapidly developed a huge number of cultists in the darkest years of the empire, and once completely controlled the power of the people.

If that's all there is, the Cult of the Mechanicus isn't a big problem, after all, the core forces of the empire are at the top.

However, they did not know from which ancient ruins they discovered a large amount of mechanical technology, and a very dangerous idea was born in the core of the upper echelons, which was an important reason for the tension between them and the previous emperors.

The Cult of the Mechanics wants to build a '****' empire.

This was something that successive emperors could not accept, and Empress Isabella also rejected many of the teachings of the Cult of the Mechanicus, and the blood of the royal family had a hint of madness, freedom, and bloodlust in their bones.

Thereupon.

In this crisis, when Empress Isabella did not know whether she was alive or dead, and the power of the Royal Knights was also severely damaged, the Cult of the Mechanicus decisively launched a coup d'état to seize power.

Of course, they still nominally propped up a puppet emperor.

That is, Empress Isabella's nephew, Prince William, a guy who likes to be free and loose on weekdays.

"William has no power to resist them." Empress Isabella shook her head and said, "Now the entire imperial capital is estimated to have fallen into the control of the Church of Machines. ”

As Empress Isabella spoke, suddenly her expression took on a look of pain.

After sensing that Empress Isabella's mental fluctuations were beginning to become unstable, Su Ziyu decisively stretched out her palm and placed it on the back of the other party's head, and then activated the ability of psychic connection to help her calm her mind with her own spiritual will.

At this time, Empress Isabella must not have an accident.

There was a moment of trance in the spirit.

Then a piercing pain was transmitted to Su Ziyu's body along the psychic connection, but this tingling sensation did not come from Empress Isabella, because she was also a passively connected existence.

"Save ...... Save me...... Help me! ……”

"Aunt Isabella! ……”

"Help me! …… I'm so uncomfortable! ……”

A psychic consciousness that was so painful that it trembled and even had lost its voice passed over, and Su Ziyu's vision blurred for a moment, and then his senses shared everything that Empress Isabella saw.

It was a magnificent golden palace.

Hundreds of steps like white jade stone climb up, directly in front of the main hall is a marble pillar with a diameter of several meters, it looks like the ancient gods lived in the temple, in front of the empty hall is a finely carved golden throne, each pattern is full of peculiar rhythm, as if it is the masterpiece of a master.

But there was no one on the huge golden throne at this time.

Su Ziyu's gaze passed through the thick walls and entered a special secret room at the back of the main hall.

A canned crystal with a diameter of more than five meters appeared in front of him, and more than a dozen people wearing metal masks were constantly busy in front of various instruments, and silver-white metal tubes were connected to the crystals in front of them, and many ripple-like patterns were projected in front of a large number of instruments.

"His Majesty the Emperor's mind is unstable."

"Inject him with a sedative immediately! ……”

"Doctor prepares."

"If the mind fluctuations are still unstable, it will be implanted directly into the artificial brain! ……”

"The power of the Mind Inhibition Barrier reaches 65%! ……”

"Turn up the frequency of mind sync! ……”

In a chaotic voice, Su Ziyu's gaze passed through the crystal jar in front of him, and then he saw a naked young man who was completely sealed inside, and his whole body was submerged in a light blue liquid.

He is relatively handsome, and his eyebrows are vaguely similar to Empress Isabella.

There are about 30 silver-white metal tubes inserted into various parts of his body, and at the same time, at the position of his brain, close to the cervical vertebrae, a small opening has been made, through the wound can see a little white brain structure components, a shallow wound on both sides, has been healed by nano repair technology, but the shaved hair has not yet grown, and on both sides is implanted an extremely precise chip, a kind of nano nerve bundle device directly pierced into the brain, A very, very weak electromagnetic signal is being emitted at this time.

"William......," Empress Isabella let out a low growl of pain.

No doubt.

The young man in the sealed jar was her nephew, Prince William, or the current Emperor.

The members of the royal family all have great psionic talents in their blood.

Prince William seemed to be in extreme pain, and his spiritual energy produced a certain burst, transmitting his mental fluctuations.

"What's that?"

"What are they doing?" After the illusion in front of him disappeared, Su Ziyu asked in a deep voice.

This is simply a real puppet emperor.

The extreme pain from the mental fluctuations made Su Ziyu feel a little empathetic, he could more or less know what the people of the Mechanical God Sect had done to the current emperor's body, just by looking at the wounds outside, he could judge that Prince William's head had been opened and studied.

"Those damned rebels!" Empress Isabella's emotions were close to getting out of control, wisps of blood appeared in her pupils, and under the spiritual comfort of Su Ziyu, she calmed down a little and said slowly: "It's a psychic harmony device." ”

"William's psionic energy can't fully activate the psionic synchrony device."

"They want to transform William into a humanoid psychic steady wave transmitter! ……”

True * Mind Launcher * False * Emperor of the Empire.

The sequelae of the failure of the psionic ascension are still affecting the people of the Empire, so the reason why the Mechanicus Cult has endured it for so many years is because they cannot replace the members of the royal family and activate the Psychic Harmony Device to calm the minds of the entire people of the Empire.

The Psychic Inhibition Barrier is only the outermost design of the Psychic Harmony Device, and without the appeasement of the Psychic Harmonic Device, all Imperial people will quickly fall into mental madness.

During the reign of Empress Isabella, the mechanics of the Cult of the Mechanicus certainly did not dare to do anything.

But now that Empress Isabella's life and death are unknown, and her body can't even be found on the battlefield, this gives the Cult of the Mechanicus a chance, a chance to completely control the royals, and control the psychic consonance device. They quickly staged a coup d'état and took control of Prince William, then sent someone to take over the Psychic Harmony Center under the Golden Palace, and then began to work on a device that could steadily and continuously emit psychic comfort waves.

And at the heart of this installation is Prince William.

The current Emperor of the Empire.

"They're going to implant William with an Anlex chip." Empress Isabella's voice was a little low and indignant, and she muttered, "Replace his brain with an artificial brain, simplify his thoughts, and become a device that steadily and continuously emits waves of joy and pleasure." ”

"Damn it!"

"We're too late! ……”
