Chapter 11: The Emperor's Secret
() Brothers of the two groups, they won't be in any danger, Julian asked, a little uneasy
Captain, don't worry, they are the best warriors in the Knights, and they are extremely adaptable, and if they encounter unsolvable trouble, they will temporarily retreat, and Marn has given Julian a shot in the arm
I'm still a little worried, let's go together
Under Julian's leadership, thirty soldiers ran in the direction of the emperor's bedroom, and along the way, they encountered a lot of interrogations, but they were all confused by their military uniforms, and when they couldn't be confused, they would make a decisive move, instantly slash and kill the imperial soldiers who stood in the way, and hide their bodies in the flowers or rooms
A few minutes later, the warriors, led by Julian himself, had arrived outside the palace of Emperor Charlotte I
Strangely not a single guard Marn said to Julian beside him
What's even more strange is that there is no sign of a fight here, and the fourth and fifth teams don't seem to have been here at all, and Julian also raised his doubts
It was useless to think too much, and they immediately went into action according to the original plan
Julian led the brethren into the Emperor's dormitory, and to their surprise there seemed to be no arrows flying and no guards lying in ambush around them, only to see that in the brightly lit dormitory, two old men were calmly playing chess at a desk, one of them looked to be about sixty years old, with a black beard, a crown, and a magnificent aristocratic garment, with a jeweled sword at his waist, he was Charlotte I himself, and the other looked even older, with a white beard, and a very ornate white and red aristocratic robe, and it was evident that the person who was now playing against the Emperor was none other than the Imperial Chancellor Aspejo
Are you Charlotte I, the Emperor of the Fayele Empire, sorry Your Majesty, please come with us, Julian walked straight in the direction of the two old men, he didn't see any hostility towards him from the emperor and the prime minister, so Julian didn't draw his sword
Hahahaha...... Charlotte I, who was no one around, laughed wildly, Aspejo, you lost again
At this time, Julian saw that Charlotte I, who was holding a sunspot in a small chessboard, had used his queen and castle to push the king of Aspejo into a corner, and at this time the queen and knight of Aspejo were still a few blocks away
His Majesty's chess skills are exquisite, and the prime minister of Aspei Hogan bowed to the wind, wiping a cold sweat
It's still early, how about the two of us play another game, Charlotte I said while looking at Julian and his subordinates who were standing on the side, anyway, there are so many chess pieces here
Julian was startled by Charlotte I's eyes, and this chilling look was like looking at a doll
Just as Julian was in a daze, the scenery in the dormitory suddenly changed, Julian and his subordinates saw a huge black and white checkered chessboard appear on the floor of the dormitory, and sixteen soldiers in imperial robes suddenly appeared from the void, lying on top of a black or white square chess grid
It was sixteen brothers from our fourth and fifth groups, Marn, exclaimed
Why is this happening, Julian picked up a soldier and tried his snort with his hand, and he was already out of breath
There were also three living men, and one of them exclaimed, and Julian and Marn quickly looked over to see that the three soldiers who were alive were already drenched in blood and dying
The brothers held on a little longer, and Julian immediately ran over to pick up a badly wounded soldier, who pulled out a silver cross and was about to unleash the magic of light
Captain...... Get out of ...... Demon...... The soldier grabbed Julian tightly, then pointed his trembling hand at the Emperor, who was sitting at the desk, and said the last words to Julian, and then he died
Brother Julian shook the dead body, but the corpse would not respond
Julian, who felt a sense of crisis, immediately put down the corpse and looked directly at the emperor Charlotte I, who was smiling and watching this qiē on the side: You ...... What the hell did you do
Why didn't you see me playing chess with the Prime Minister, Charlotte I smiled hideously
While playing chess, the sharp-eyed Julian noticed that the three seriously wounded were on the huge chessboard on the ground, which was exactly where the white pieces held by the prime minister on the chessboard were located, and the remaining three chess pieces were located
I saw Charlottes I wipe the chess pieces on the chessboard to the side and said to the prime minister: Let's play another game, only to see the corpses on the chessboard lying on the ground, as if flattened to the side by an invisible giant hand, the huge chessboard was emptied
Follow...... Obeying His Majesty's orders, Prime Minister Aspehuo said to the emperor with a frightened face, obviously it was the first time he had seen such a terrifying and strange scene today
Waiting, not willing to be ignored, Julian pulled out two knights with swords
Suddenly, the scenery around them changed again, Julian, Marne, and the thirty men they brought with them were like entering a strange alien space, only to see the darkness all around, and the only thing that could make them feel real was the huge black and white checkerboard under their feet
Ah, the body is not controlled, and a soldier exclaimed, and then many soldiers let out such an exclamation, only to see their feet involuntarily move towards both sides of the chessboard
How could this be, Julian wanted to pull a soldier who was moving around, but at this time he found that even his own body was out of control
Soon Julian and Marne and their thirty parts were divided into eight people in a row, a total of four rows were arranged on both sides of the chessboard, Julian was forced to stand on a black grid in the middle of the bottom line of the chessboard, he suddenly felt a pain in his forehead, as if he had been branded by something, and then the people around him also let out a series of screams, Julian looked to the side, only to see that the foreheads of the warriors around him were branded with representatives of the queen, bishop, knight, The white symbol of the castle, and the eight warriors standing in the row in front of him were also branded with the symbol representing the soldiers
Julian looked across and saw that the warriors on the opposite bottom line were also branded with the same symbol, the only difference was that their symbol was black, and Marn happened to be branded with the symbol of the king of the black side, standing on the bottom line of the opponent, and in the middle of the white grid was facing Julian, since I was facing Marn who became the 'king' of the black side, then I had become the 'king' of the white side, Julian thought
Prime Minister, let's get started
Yes, you go first
The conversation between the Emperor and the Prime Minister came from the sky, and at this time, Julian and the others noticed that in the darkness, two extremely large busts of the Emperor and the Prime Minister appeared in the air, and these two busts stood outside the bottom line on both sides of the chessboard
What we became pawns in the chess game, at this point Julian found that they had fallen into a desperate situation
Evil Magic - This is an evil magic monster, not that this emperor did not have a single soldier around him, it turns out that he would use such a powerful evil magic.
