Dream Imperial City, inside the palace, at this time, the only empress of the Darkwing Empire was furious, glaring angrily at the ministers in front of her.

"What the hell are you doing?!" The Empress's angry face made everyone below tremble.

The Empress was rarely really angry, but when she did, it was unimaginable.

"This time about Sister Yasha, all the people present were assigned to the border coolies for five years!" The Empress's voice trembled slightly.

Everyone knelt down and did not dare to look up, they knew that the Empress would not allow anyone to interrupt her at this time.

Even if there was anything wrong with the Empress's execution, the opinion could only be raised until it was over.

"Now, Judge Berauko, who is in charge of the investigation, has been taken to the emergency room."

The empress's tone changed slightly, and there seemed to be some faint doubt, "So that means that no living person has seen what happened at that time." ”

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty. An old man with a gray beard knelt on the ground and said tremblingly.

The Empress glared at him, perhaps she also wanted to know what was going on, so for the first time she didn't get angry again.

"Do you have any proposals, Count Drenx?"

Count Drenx was slightly surprised, but he quickly reacted, still kneeling on the ground, and now raised his head to look directly at the Empress.

"Your Majesty, my investigation team has extracted some of the material left over from the explosion from the scene of the accident."

Earl Drenx blinked his withered eyes, "As long as it has been tested for a while, I am confident that I can analyze the cause of the accident." ”

The Empress pondered for a moment, "If you can do it, then I will be rewarded with a lot when it is done." ”

The earl's expression suddenly lit up, "Thank you for the grace of Your Majesty, the old minister will definitely give everything I have to solve this matter!" ”

The Empress said no more, but an equally richly dressed old man not far from the old earl was now staring at the earl with fierce eyes.

However, the ecstatic Drenx did not notice it, and was still immersed in the opportunity that Her Majesty had just given him to make meritorious contributions.

The Drenx family is a well-deserved century-old family, but this once successful family has declined rapidly in recent decades.

The first reason is that the biggest threat to the empire, the Transcendent Empire, has collapsed, and the surrounding monster kingdoms have also reached an agreement with the empire, so the Drenx family, which is an outstanding general but lacks political talents, has inevitably been eliminated by the times.

Secondly, most of the people of the Drenx family are upright and courageous, so they have made many enemies in the empire, and the fall of many enemies is, in a sense, the main reason for their decline.

In fact, the Drenx family's self-help began very early, but they never found a chance.

The Empress was still announcing the results of her handling of all personnel involved in the accident, and the people below remained in a kneeling posture.

"Your Majesty!" A heavily armed soldier galloped into the main hall.

The empress couldn't help frowning, but she still said, "What's the matter? What happened? ”

Generally speaking, if a soldier suddenly breaks in at such a time, then something big is bound to happen.

"Your Majesty, Prince Lace is missing!"

"What?!" The Empress was shocked, "Didn't you already call the Royal Darkwing Guards to protect him?!" How could such a thing still happen?! ”

"Your Majesty, the prince is ...... It has surpassed the strength of all our guards. The soldier knelt on one knee and said with great trepidation.

"How is this possible?" The Empress was extremely surprised, and then said: "Dispatch the Sixth Golden Legion, you must find Reed, whether it is dead or alive!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The soldier stepped back and quickly left the main hall.

As she watched the soldiers leave, the Empress's expression changed from anger to unease.

Reed was able to escape the surveillance of the Royal Darkwing Guards...... When did he have that power?

Did he claim to have encountered a miracle that day? This is also unbelievable......

The Empress shook her head slightly, pressed her temples, and was overwhelmed by the many strange things.

"Go down, this is the end of this court." The empress gave the order, and the courtiers began to retreat gradually.

Outside the main hall, on the tall steps, the Earl of Drenx was walking with a happy face.

His own quick decision is really extremely wise, and he is very clear about the status of Sister Yasha in the heart of the empress.

It was for this reason that he dared to make that kind of request in the face of the empress's fury.

And if he succeeds in his own investigation, then he will undoubtedly get a great reward from the empress, although it can't revive the family instantly, but it can make the clan feel hope.

As the old earl slowly descended the steps, a mocking voice came.

"Your wishful thinking is good, old Salo."

The Earl was slightly stunned, then slowly turned his head and stared at the arrogant old man with hatred.

"Duke Delabbo, I'm surprised that you care about me......"

The Duke smiled disdainfully and slowly walked over to the Count, "No, don't get me wrong, I just want to see how far your daydreams have gone. ”

"Carl!!" The Count was furious, "Don't think that if you're a duke, I won't dare to turn against you!" The grudge between our two families is not a day or two! ”

The duke still kept a smile, "Old Salo, you old man who has run out of oil, do you still want to take a group of black chickens with oil bottles in your family to become phoenixes?" It's ridiculous! ”

"You think that accident is as simple as you think? You and I should know the strength of Sister Yasha, what kind of power do you think it will be if you can hurt her? ”

The Earl gritted his teeth unwillingly, of course he knew this, but he still had confidence in his family, and he did not notice that there was some self-deception involved.

"When the time comes, I will let you know that our family is not something that people like you can insult!" Count Salo glared at the smiling Duke Karl again and walked away.

"Ignorance." Karl looked at his departing back and muttered faintly.

Soon, Karl left the palace as well, but he did not go in the direction of his mansion.

He came to a royal garden not far from the palace, an ancient garden with a long history, which had been baptized by several generations of blood, but still maintained his perfect style.

At this time, the garden has a little discordant color, and a little dark purple light flows around these landscapes.

Carl's cloudy eyes were now shining with these purple lights, and he stepped into a clearing in it, which seemed to be blessed by an invisible barrier, and Carl disappeared in an instant.

Entering the interior of the barrier, Karl looked at the man sitting on the elaborate carved seat in front of him with a look of great admiration and fanatical eyes.

"You're here, Carl." The man's handsome facial features were becoming beautiful due to the purple light at this time.

"Lord Moriel, our plans are going well at the moment." Karl owed a debt and looked very respectful.

"Is it true that the Empress did not suspect how the accident happened?" Moriel asked.

"The Empress has no intention of doing so, but......" Karl's eyes tingle with disdain, "there is an earl who does not know whether to live or die and try to find out about it. ”

"Oh?" The man seemed interested, "If I'm not mistaken...... It must be the old earl of Drenx, right? ”

"It's him." Carl looked a little surprised, "But don't worry, I have a way of getting that old thing to give up." ”

"Then I'll leave this matter to you." The man said, picking up a cup carved with a strange pattern on the table in front of him.

"This is today's river water, drink it!" The man handed the cup to an agitated Carl.

"Thank you, sir......" Carl said, and drank the strange purple liquid from his cup.

After drinking the unknown liquid, Carl's whole body glowed with a dark purple light, but his appearance did not change much.

"You're almost on the verge of death, aren't you?" Morlie looked at Karl, who was inhaling deeply.

"Yes......" Karl opened his eyes, a strong dark purple light wrapping around his terrifying arm.

"Soon, you'll be like me." Morlie's seemingly encouraging tone concealed a mocking meaning, "Endure her baptism and gain eternal life." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Carl bowed, "As long as I practice the Death Omen, and then pass it on to the clansmen, then replacing the royal family is just around the corner!" ”

Morlie curled the corners of his lips, "yes, I hope it goes as smoothly as you say......"

"You can go, there will be guards here to check later." Moriel said.

Karl bowed again, and quickly walked out of the barrier and left the garden.

Morlie sorted out the strange objects on the table, and for a long time, he stopped as if he felt something.

"Is that old thing really as stupid as you say?" The black-haired girl who appeared at some point behind the demon column said suspiciously.

"I swear, Your Highness." Morel didn't look back, but his tone became very respectful, "He'll do what we planned." ”

"Then you will bear all the consequences, that's all?" Dream Curtain pressed the back of Molie's chair, and the pleasant voice carried a faint impact of energy.

“...... I swear, Your Highness......" Molie put down the object in his hand, and beads of sweat began to flow from his forehead.

Meng Wei blinked his golden eyes, "Forget it, I'll trust you this time." ”

Moriel breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Your Highness...... Ouch! ”

The man covered his beaten head and looked back at his Highness with a look of grievance.

"You've been unreliable like this twice." "If this is the third time, then I'll have to consider sending you back." ”

"Don't! Your Highness! Morlie hurriedly grabbed the corner of Dream Curtain's clothes, "I won't let you down!" ”
