Early in the morning, in the Emperor's palace in Stone Oxland, on the big bed in the inner room of the dormitory, Romulos was awakened by the noise.

He subconsciously reached under the pillow to hold Eternal Tranquility, and Bellino's people came in?

"Bold! This is the Emperor's Palace, not a place for you to go wild!"

"Your Majesty is busy sleeping until late at night, how can you disturb Your Majesty's rest for such a trivial matter!?"

"Stop, don't blame us for being rude!"

"You are determined to die...... Ah——!h

The sound of Puffy pounding against the wall continued, the door slammed open, and a guard flew past Romrose's bed, slammed through the window and flew out.

Romulus let go of his grip on the weapon and shouted nervously, "Wait! Wait! I haven't ...... my clothes yet."

It was already late, and two tall figures stepped into the inner room, and the first one was too tall to bow his head when he entered the door so as not to hit the door frame.

The elf beauty who was more than two meters tall, had a perfect figure, and had a pair of pointed ears took off her sunglasses, revealing her eyes that were spitting white light, and said coldly: "Your Majesty the Emperor, Li Qi learned that the situation on your side was critical, so he asked us to rush over overnight to help you, but your men kept us out." ”

"If that's what you mean, then we're hot faces and cold butts, and we'll leave right away. If it weren't for you, then your subordinates would be able to decide who and when they would see you, and how many days would they not see, would you, the emperor, be so deaf?"

Behind the elf beauty was a beautiful girl with light blonde short hair, and she glanced at Romulus who was stunned on the bed, and she snorted disdainfully: "Scum......"

After the disdain, the girl who looked exactly like Theresia turned around and went out, and the sound of the human body smashing against the wall sounded again, it was the guard she was cleaning up.

"Your Highness Qi, Qili......"

Romrose said dumbfounded, "And Your Majesty Catherine, why are you here?"

Before the person entered the door just now, he sensed the familiar fluctuation of power. It was the power that once made his soul shake and suddenly open up to the path, and he burned it deep in his heart and never forgot it.

Then he was embarrassed to death: "That...... Can you give me some time to get dressed? That's rude, don't get me wrong, I mean myself!"

Qi Li said with a grin: "I also count you as half a mentor, what else is there to be shy in front of the mentor? I don't know how many thousands of years I lived, what ass...... Hiss...... What haven't you seen? Okay, three minutes, don't delay!"

It seemed that Catherine had done something that made her change her mind.

Strange turned to go out, and Romrose jumped up, getting dressed in a panic, and the joy in her heart rushed out, and she almost laughed.

Li Qi actually sent His Royal Highness Qili to help him, what a good brother!

What's more, what did Kiri say just now? She admitted that she was her mentor!

Hurriedly dressed and washed, and after two and a half minutes, he went out the door, and saw the guards lying on the ground, and then thought of Qili's words just now, and Romuloth became angry.

Feeling that it was childish to show the majesty of the king to his subordinates in front of Qili and Catherine, he calmly waved away the guards, and then said respectfully: "Your Highness, Your Majesty, would you like to have breakfast with me and accept my apology?"

Qi Li sneered, "Yes, it is really a great honor to have breakfast with His Majesty the Emperor of the Holy Will Empire. ”

Romrose's face flushed, not angry, but embarrassed. The words just now really had this kind of thought, of course it was glory for others, but it was an insult to Qili, and she gave the name of her empire!

Catherine threw something over next to her, and said unhappily: "Eat quickly!

Romulus catches it, it's half a loaf of bread, it's still cold.

He didn't show the slightest disgust on his face, but smiled: "Thank you Your Majesty for the reward." ”

What an honor, and an insult to Catherine, she is the Empress's sister, the queen of the Redstone Kingdom.

So the maids and guards of the Emperor's palace were shocked to see that His Majesty the Emperor was nibbling on cold bread and following behind the two beautiful ladies, looking like an honest little attendant.

"The informant on Bellino's side summoned him that Bellino would attack again in the morning. ”

On the terrace overlooking the whole of Stone Cow and the entire battlefield to the east, Romulås nibbled on bread and gave a briefing.

"I have already contacted all forces last night and confirmed that it will take three days at the earliest to obtain enough stopping power, so I am ready to evacuate Stone Ox City and retreat to Wolf Castle. ”

"What's next to you...... Belino opens the way to Ika, and it's up to him to act. If you ignore me and go directly to Ika, I can only contact Li Qi and Her Majesty the Empress, and we will organize an elite team together to stop him from doing anything bad in Ika's corrupt enchantment. ”

"I'm sorry, Your Highness Qili, but I didn't think the situation could be reversed overnight, so I had to make such a choice. It was a real failure, and I had to accept the reality. ”

"...... Now"

Speaking of this, Romulus looked at Qili and said in a somewhat apprehensive tone: "It's great that you and Your Majesty Catherine are here, but yesterday's battle has proven that the magic flying ship is a powerful weapon enough to rule the sky." Even if there is a floating ship, it is very dangerous without the cover of the magic ship, and it is impossible to resist it with only dragons and planes, what weapons do you have to restrain it?"

"I also tested the anti-aircraft weapons you sent yesterday, and they can indeed pose some threats to flying boats below three thousand meters, but it is still useless to control the sky at this altitude. ”

Relly still maintained that high-ranking posture, and when she first asked some about Romrose's contact with various forces, confirmed that a large number of flying boats had been ordered, and even gave a deposit, the corners of her mouth curved upward.

"You immediately order to stop the retreat, and use the anti-aircraft weapons we have given, plus the remaining dragons and flying dragons to protect the sky over Stone Ox, there may be sporadic flying boats and floating ships to break through. ”

"As for the sky over the entire battlefield, leave it to us, don't get involved, otherwise it will be very dangerous. ”

"Our fleet has been assembled at the base near Wolfsburg, and it will be on the battlefield in less than twenty minutes, and we will tell us when we confirm the time of Belino's sortie. ”

Kiri pressed Catherine's shoulder: "Then, the sky will be handed over to our General Catherine." ”

Romrose was confused: "Fleet?"

Look at Catherine as if Theresia was there: "Catherine...... General?"

He was not stupid, and immediately came back to his senses: "Yesterday Konstantin said that you have a way to deal with the flying boat, and what this means is actually ...... Got a new plane that can deal with the flying boat?"

Qi Li didn't speak, just nodded, and Romulos said in disbelief: "How is this possible? The speed of the flying boat is so fast, and the flying boat is piloted by hero-level transcendents, how can a plane piloted by a strong person be the winner?"

"When the magic guide gun first appeared, everyone also thought that how could a hero-level magic guide crossbow be defeated by a strong-level magic guide gun", Qi Li said: "After that, the truth told everyone that their idea was wrong. Now, Richie Prell ...... No, it is the Fei Communist Party that once again uses facts to tell everyone that times have changed again. ”

Romeros gasped and said, "Since His Highness Qili is so sure, it must be a fact, and I really want to see it right away." ”

Then he said eagerly, "This can be sold, right? Can you sell it to me in large quantities if I need it?"

"When the facts prove this, Your Majesty will make sure of it", Qi Li waited for him to say: "Of course, there will be some additional terms at that time, such as the termination of cooperation with certain forces, and the Fei Gong is not willing to stand with the enemy." ”

Even with great respect for Qili, Roamrose did not express his position immediately, but said vaguely: "Of course I understand Li Qi's position, and we will find a solution that is satisfactory to both parties." ”

Sure enough, when it comes to business, Romroth's side as a political creature awakens.

Leaving the Emperor's Palace, Catherine flew the Salmon to Wolfsburg Air Base, a special zone assigned to the Filk-Communist by Romross.

Catherine muttered on the plane: "Beauty tricks, it's useless!"

"If he can make Romrose bow down with Chilly, he won't be Romrose," Chilly said in the back seat, "he is not the Rollo he used to be after all, he has the will and strength of Tudor the Great, and there is a certain hidden force supporting him." Come here as Qili, just ask him to cooperate with our actions as much as possible, and don't play any tricks to make trouble for us. ”

Qi Li smiled again: "And it just wants him to hesitate, even if he sees the fact that the flying boat is going to be eliminated, he has to hesitate for a while before making a decision." If he had made a decisive decision just now because of his trust in Qili, I would have been even more nerve-wracking. ”

"Shame, gone", Catherine had nothing to say and simply attacked it personally: "Perverted, thoroughly." ”

"I dedicated my life to the revolutionary cause!"

Strange cried out in pain, "Catherine, you should comfort me, why did you still pour salt on my wounds?"

..................

In the Empress's study, the Imperial Minister of Magic, Medi, is talking to the Empress.

"The price of 300 ships and 20 million gold bushels is very affordable", the empress seemed to be reassuring Medi: "You should have seen yesterday's battle mentor, the floating fleet will be very dangerous without the protection of flying boats, especially since the magic guide bomb is developing so quickly." ”

"Even if a flying boat can only carry two or three hundred kilograms of small bombs, it can pose a serious threat to floating ships. A floating ship plus weapons and personnel, worth millions of dollars, is difficult to block the attack of ten flying boats, and this exchange is too terrible. So just to protect your own fleet, you also have to equip flying boats. ”

Medi's frown did not let go of this: "The Ministry of Magic has also made progress in its research on propeller planes, and now it is possible to build a magic plane with performance close to that of Prell." Although it is much worse than the flying boat, it is at least an alternative, so as not to completely pin your hopes on the side of the Ted family, has Your Majesty's strategy for the Ted family changed?"

Theresia rubbed her brows and said, "The situation on the main plane seems to be calm now, but it is actually very tense, and I may need to dispatch the floating fleet at any time, so ...... Sorry for not talking to your mentor first. ”

"If you don't place an order for Hathaway first, she will definitely not have extra capacity on her side, and she will not be able to give me a flying boat as soon as possible. The order and the deposit alone are not enough, I just invited her over for morning tea and asked her to make this order the highest priority. ”

"I do want to suppress Hathaway, but here and there. I also know that the Mentor is pushing the Ministry of Magic and other magical families to follow the path of Richie's Magic Plane. Zold and Mosmut got your behest, right?"

She smiled bitterly and said, "Don't talk about Zold, his strength is still very limited, and there is a problem on Mosmut's side." Before, with his great help, the floating fleet and the Divine Emperor Fort were so smooth, but he looked a little inflated, and felt that he could use some technology to monopolize the empire's floating ship business. ”

"So ......"

Medi suddenly said: "The order for Hathaway is also a warning to Mosmut, it's my problem, I didn't notice such a thing." ”

The empress waved her hand: "Mentor, don't blame yourself, after all, you don't need to be like me, you have to see everything." Managing an empire and balancing the conflicting interests of all parties under its rule is important. If I don't see these conflicts, I think some of the decisions I've made are inconsistent or even stupid. ”

Medi sighed faintly: "Only Your Majesty, who is one of man and god, can always take the overall situation into account." However, in this way, Hathaway's rise will be difficult to contain. She had previously dropped her position as President of the Mage Council, and now it seemed that she was retreating to a strategy to strengthen her position in the industry. ”

The empress shook her head: "There is nothing to worry about in the short term, her goal is indeed to find the dawn, and she is in such a hurry to earn gold for this." ”

Medi lowered her eyes with an indescribable emotion in her tone: "Looking for the light...... Isn't the dawn Your Majesty? Where does her behavior put Your Majesty?"

"Yes, I'm also quite annoyed", in this matter, the empress did not hide her true thoughts: "After all, the empire is called the Dawning Empire, and I am the God Emperor of Order who has won the approval of the Dawn after all." However, the dawn is not my personal after all, nor is it Kem's god, everyone is qualified to explore, and I can't stop it openly. ”

"There's no need, there's no way she's going to find the dawn," Medi said in a firm tone, "For a long time, the demigods of the outer planes, and even some gods who wish to change their priesthood, have been looking for the dawn, how can she find it as a mere mortal, let her waste her energy and gold bushes on this." ”

"But I ...... Still upset", the empress blinked, and this moment seemed a little playful: "So, in fact, I was quite expecting what Li Qi would perform." ”

Before Medi understood why the Empress didn't even inform him, she hurriedly placed an order directly with Hathaway, and then he would be a legendary magician.

The wrinkles on the old man's face trembled, even Medi was taken aback by the empress's thoughts, this is not the style of painting that the empress should have......

The surprise dissipated instantly, and Medi laughed: "So, Your Majesty pushes it ...... No, I guess I dug a hole for her?"

"I can't talk about digging a pit," said the empress, "and if Li Qi fails to counteract, I can also get some flying boats for emergency purposes first." ”

Her gaze was a little misty: "But I think...... Or rather, I believe that Richie can do something surprising. ”

"Actually, he has already done it, and yesterday everyone's eyes were on the battlefield of Romrose and Belino, and the other battlefield, but not many people saw it, and it happened that my subordinates did. ”

A blurry image emerges from the crystal ball on the desk, but the general situation is still clear.

The empress explained: "It's a poor demon area, so it's not clear how to shoot it, and Li Qi should have used the poor demon area to kill so many flying boats." But the new planes that appeared, even if they were worse than the flying boats, could still compete with the flying boats. ”

After a few minutes, Medi's constricted pupils slowly relaxed, and he nodded and said, "Richie Prell has always been surprising, even I think so." ”

The empress said very seriously: "So, mentor, you can't give up the magic guide plane route over there. ”

Medi respectfully complied, and at this time the attendant reported that the visitor had arrived.

As Medi left, Theresia waved her hand to erase the image in the crystal ball, and when someone entered the study, she called affectionately: "Heinie, I'm really sorry, the teleportation is so dangerous, and I asked you to come here immediately." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern, no matter how dangerous it is, it can't compare to the time when the Storm Islands were in a mess, when I teleported and almost blew myself into pulp. ”

Hathaway was refreshed, and she talked more than before: "A space stone is enough to eliminate the danger, although it is a bit expensive, but compared to the honor of drinking morning tea with His Majesty, what is it?"

Theresia also behaved very enthusiastically, and the two were like best friends who were too good to share anything: "Don't be poor, what is the space stone to you, if we compare the family property seriously, you must be more." ”

"Oh, is Your Majesty sincere? The king in history who said such things to his courtiers, the next sentence is to contribute your family property", Hathaway sat down at the desk and said with a smile: "If I had, His Majesty would have asked me to escape immediately, but I am so poor that I have even replaced the fragrance for bathing with cheap goods, if someone pays for my laughter, 10,000 gold bushels once, I can immediately laugh my face badly!"

"Who is so bold to buy your ......"

Theresia personally got up to make tea for Hathaway, the two talked for a while, and it felt like the time was almost up, Theresia was about to mention the matter of the flying boat, but Hathaway took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty can directly see the battlefield of the confrontation between Romulus and Belino, right?"

The black-haired and silver-eyed beauty looked like an insurance clerk who came to the door, and said energetically: "Take a look now, there is a good show going on." ”

Theresia was as good as a stream, and opened the real-time video of the battlefield relayed by the special communication tower.

Sure enough, to the east of the battlefield, the sky was dense and dense, and Belino's floating fleet, escorted by flying boats, was rapidly approaching Stone Ox to the west.

Hathaway said: "Your Majesty placed an order in a hurry yesterday, and today you may have a new idea. So, let's take a good look at the performance of the flying boat, the real battle is a hundred times stronger than I say with my mouth. ”

Theresia's expression became solemn, and she really needed to take a good look.

And then she saw something: "Huh, what's that?"

A group of flying machines appeared in the western sky, the same as the flying boats in the east, the speed was not fast, but it was neither a flying dragon nor the previous kind of aircraft, and the size was smaller.

Hathaway disagreed: "That must be the plane that Rich supported Romross, of course he is not willing to lose Romrose as an ally." ”

Theresia's tone was full of anticipation: "It seems that this is the case, then, let's behave well." ”

"Yesterday Belino just got the flying boat, in fact, it has not yet shown the real combat power of the flying boat", Hathaway thought she was talking about the flying boat, and continued to boast: "Today they will perform better and let Richie see the reality clearly." ”

Theresia nodded with a smirk......
