394 Conspiracy
The next day, the Marquis de Costa and David visited, and Charles personally greeted them and brought them into the VIP room, accompanied by Brian, the butler.
As soon as Gosta saw Charlie, he bowed slightly to him and said sincerely: "Little Charlie, thank you very much! Thank you for taking care of David in the Arcane Ring, in the case of more than ninety percent of the casualties in the Arcane Ring, the fall of the Fazun, and the serious injury of His Majesty the Emperor, it is really very rare to let David survive!"
Colin is gone, and if I lose Davy again, I fear that my wife will lose the courage to live, and our Costa family will be cut off from offspring!"
Charlie hurriedly helped him and said: "Uncle don't be so polite, in fact, I didn't do anything, I just gave David some advice, in that situation, like David and I are just small pawns of those big people, and they can't change the whole situation."
David survived because of his ability to take charge of his own affairs, and on the other hand, he was extremely lucky, maybe Colin blessed his brother in heaven!"
"Maybe!" Gosta nodded and said, "I haven't seen what the devil is like, I don't know the true combat power of thousands of mages and tens of thousands of regular troops, and I don't know how powerful the mage of the Arcane Ring is, but, as the lord of the thousand-year empire, I know very well the strength of His Majesty the Emperor."
When His Royal Highness Charles cut off the head of the red dragon demon with a knife, the crimson blood eroded the corpse under his feet beyond recognition, His Royal Highness was covered in blood, and the appearance of raising the knife and roaring remains in my heart, and that battle established the throne of His Royal Highness Charles.
The name of "Crimson Highness" also began to be called out from that moment, and later His Highness entered the empire, and the Crimson Emperor only made an upgrade on this name. ”
It was an amazing experience.
Charlie showed an interested expression and said in surprise: "Has my uncle ever served in the royal guard?"
Gosta shook his head and said: "It's not a glorious experience, I don't even have the opportunity to sacrifice myself for Your Majesty, just a small role carrying the flag, I saw that scene from afar, I only felt trembling all over my body, and I was so excited that I couldn't speak, it was too burning! Your Majesty is simply the god of war in my heart!"
Charlie knew this allusion, and the story of the Crimson Emperor slaying the dragon was compiled into the textbook by a group of officials who smuggled the horse, and became a compulsory course for all imperial teenagers, and the impression of the emperor's invincibility gradually became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
There are pros and cons to this matter, no one would have thought that the invincible Crimson Emperor would be defeated, seriously injured and dying, you can imagine how deep the shock it would bring to the thousand-year-old empire when the news of Charles the Great's serious illness was delivered!
The decline in the deterrence of high-end combat power, the struggle for princes, and the imminent movement of major domestic forces will inevitably bring unimaginable harm to this huge empire.
Charlie sighed: "The emperor was injured by some accidents, he was originally in the rear when the war started, because the main army was slaughtered by the devil and had no power to fight back, and he shot angrily, leaving the devil with a chance to kill the king."
However, on the other hand, it also reflects the gap in strength between our two planes, and they kill the pinnacle powerhouses of our plane as easily as we kill a great mage. ”
Gosta laughed, "Charlie, it's not easy for us to kill an archmage!"
"Father, don't tease Charlie!" Davy grumbled and said, "Actually, it is really a very simple thing to kill an archmage with Charlie's skills.
You don't know, right! At that time, we were in the devil on the Devil's Plain, the devil came out of a big devil shout, our side of the struggle for a long time, the military produced a general, but also a powerful strong man, Princen level has 15, but was beaten and killed by the other party, including the connected weapon, was beaten!
It is said that the big devil has 18 levels, after this battle no one dared to fight, morale fell to the bottom, Charlie Boss challenged it as an apprentice, and it fought for more than an hour, not falling behind, but the big devil was so angry that he turned the tide and saved the lost morale. ”
Obviously, Gosta hadn't heard the news, he muttered for a while, and said: "Being able to be with Zhou Xuan, a level 18 powerhouse, for so long, can't be explained by luck, I guess Charlie has a speed that the big devil can't reach!"
Charlie nodded and said, "It's my limit to hold it, I can't win that battle, and the best ending is a draw." ”
"It's terrible! Is there any force in the world that can stop them?"
Charlie didn't comment on this question, but just asked, "Uncle Gosta, how is the Silver Knights doing?"
Mentioning this question, Gosta's face was solemn, and he muttered: "The situation is not optimistic, Brad secretly set up an organization 'Knights of the Dark Blade' to constantly dig up our people, those veterans are okay, they have followed Archduke Thomas to fight for many years, and they have a life-and-death friendship, and besides, the Grand Duke gives these people relatively favorable material conditions, so it is reasonable, they don't have much need for betrayal."
I'm worried about young people, and according to some sources, there are more than 100 people who have joined the Dark Edge in the known secret realm.
Archduke Thomas's influence would diminish over time, and Brad's prestige would rise as he continued to control the supreme power of the family. Charlie, we don't have much time left!"
"I'm going to start the Silver Knights when I come back this time, and I've heard the news of my father's death from Brad in the past few days, and I guess he can't help but do it, so the decisive battle between me and him is about to break out, and I also ask Uncle Costa to be ready to deal with some challenges at any time. ”
The Marquis of Costa asked, "Then what are your plans?"
"There is no plan, we will have a showdown with Brad directly!
Gosta's eyes widened, and he subconsciously said: "Charlie, if you want to follow your father's example, I'm afraid it's a little difficult! The Pavel family has also attracted a lot of customers over the years.
For example, the wandering mage Mork, the berserker Sean, the master swordsmanship Stephen, in addition to the forces hidden in the shadows, the Syndicate League of Thieves is not an easy organization to deal with, as long as you can afford to pay enough, they will stand against you, in this regard, Brad who controls the Pavel family can throw you a few blocks away.
If we don't have this strength, if we rashly provoke, I am afraid that we will lose very badly! We will lose even our way out, and we may even lose our lives!"
Brian added, "In addition to this, there is also a force that should not be underestimated, considering that the family elders are involved. ”
Charlie bowed slightly, and said: "Actually, I don't have a choice, with my prestige in the family, there is almost no force that can be united, at least not on the surface, even if my father leaves some back hands for me, I have to put up the flag first, and then force some people to show their faces." ”
"Are you sure, then?" said Marquis Gosta, his resolute face showing a little determination, he was afraid that this decision was a test of life and death.
"I can't be sure, I don't know how strong the enemy is!" Charlie smiled and said: "However, I don't lack the courage to fight against them, I have even dealt with the devil, and I am afraid of dealing with people? The worst outcome is not death! How different is it from when I was driven to this ancient castle? Those forces have always wanted to kill me, or when I have no power to protect myself, but now the situation is different, I want to see who those who stand on the opposite side of me!"
