Chapter 75: Start Being a Faint King Today!
The armed maid belonged directly to the emperor - but because the emperor knelt, it belonged directly to the imperial church, which represented the emperor's administration.
These armed maids seem violent, find heretics among the 500 trillion people in the empire, suppress them on the rebellious planets, and indoctrinate and brainwash their own juniors with "unremitting efforts" - are they evil?
No, people who don't have a firm belief like them resist the Zerg in the east, reject Chaos in the west, attack the Titanium Clan in the north, reach the Spirit Clan in the south, fight the green-skinned orcs in the whole universe, and kill the believers of the evil gods in countless worlds - then, I don't know how these 500 trillion human beings will die.
What they do is not just for themselves. There is no future for the Emperor and humanity without their own sacrifices, and every armed maid and true Imperial warrior knows this - so they worship the Emperor of God who once sacrificed himself for mankind! The spirit of the Emperor has become a god, and now the spirit of the Emperor has found such a walking shell in the world—that all armed maids must obey any order of the Emperor.
"Da-da-" The sound of leather boots tapping on the marble floor rang out in unison.
"Quack, quack—" The sound of the armor rang out with the neat steps.
The Holy City has been filled with all kinds of armies, goblins and gnomes, elves and orcs, mercenaries of all kinds, and even demons, captive demons - it can be said that the natives of the Holy City are more knowledgeable than the other. As long as you live long enough, you can see everything. But there is something really strange about this scene in front of me.
There are more than 100 little Lori girls of the human race, and the average height seems to be less than 1.6 meters (and she also wears high-heeled iron boots with mobile armor). However, he was dressed in heavy armor (mobile armor) that he knew at first glance was steel, and he held a strange weapon in his hand. The footsteps are uniform, and it goes without saying that he looks like a soldier who trains regularly. Six people in a row, dozens of rows of lines pulled into a long line, holding a dozen flaming ...... Battle flags?
These armored loli are still kicking and walking.
Lori was dressed in a military uniform and kicked the right step, what Levi had never seen before, but now he saw it - thanks to the fact that he gave each of them a pair of high-proportion long legs, it made this scene look quite ...... Down?
Levi walked at the front, and he was also a local cadre in the eyes of the world, and wherever he went, a flaming double-headed eagle banner of the empire followed closely behind him.
In this world of magic and simple machinery, the walls of the Holy City are about ten meters high, and the thickness is five or six meters. Most of the buildings in the city were made of wood and a small number of stone buildings, which were mostly concentrated near the royal palace.
That is, the wreck of the interstellar colony ship that has been transformed into a royal palace - Levi is going to visit the queen's dock here.
"This is your entourage?"
He was greeted by security personnel - of course, this orc who was more than 1.90 meters tall. His brown skin and imposing-looking figure made his fanged voice look extremely aggressive.
"I am the Count of Monte Cristo." Levi didn't care if his surname was Tang or not, and said in a low voice: "The queen summoned me, and I asked to bring my people in." ”
"It can't be - no one can bring their own army into the palace except for the men of the two knights." The orc general glanced at the document handed by Maria, and when it saw Maria's cold eyes, the hand that went to take the document was stunned for a moment - it had not seen a look of hatred for orcs, and it had long been accustomed to this kind of gaze. But this kind of expression of being about to draw a knife and slash people in the next moment is rare, after all, this is the palace.
"You...... You can bring a few guards in, just two. ”
"Thank you, General." Levi smiled and nodded in thanks as the orcs, who were a head taller than himself and could fit three or five of themselves, "Please show me the way - and besides, you just scared me." ”
"Come, take the Count to the Queen, if Your Majesty is free." The orc general guarding the gate looked at Levi very strangely, and asked with a little contempt: "Why, haven't the knights of the Old World seen orcs?" What is there to be afraid of. ”
"I'm afraid that if you say something more, my Maria will slap me and splash my blood."
Levi is really a little afraid of this - first, he is dressed in white, it is difficult to wash when it is dirty, and he is so stingy when he wastes money! How can you be reluctant?; Second, after all, it is no good to kill someone who is under a roof - if Maria and the armed maid seem to hate orcs fiercely, if you don't agree with it......
I'm so scared, I'm so scared.
"You!"
"Maria, Ophelia...... And Barty - you two come in with me, and the others are here to standby. Levi ordered the living saint, the head maid, and the elven princess who had just been brainwashed.
"I told you could only bring two people in!" The orc general did not give up, as if he wanted to be a law-abiding pacesetter and a good citizen—and not very politely pulled out a small war hammer from his waist.
"Brush!" Before Levi could speak, Maria had already slapped the opponent's war hammer, the size of a brick and the thickness of three bricks—and then with a slight force, the opponent's war hammer changed substantially—and a handprint appeared.
"Despicable bastard......" Maria's voice rang in the ears of the orcs like a death knell in hell: "Since you want to die, I will fulfill you!" ”
"Papa-" Levi slapped his face on the side, feeling that his compulsion was high enough, and Maria's behavior was simply giving herself a long face--anyway, she didn't really plan to be a horse boy: "Maria is also discouraged-General, I'll take two people and three people, right?" If you don't reply, I'll take your approval. ”
As he spoke, Levi didn't wait for the other party to reply, and pulled a hateful glare at the orc Maria and floated away.
"Brush!"
One hundred and twenty armed maids stood in a small phalanx in a small phalanx and waited quietly for Levi's return—not caring that they had blocked the palace gates.
Levi led his three ponies through several corridors built outside, as well as through the passages inside the colony ship - to the very top of the colony ship.
It should be a super-large version of the bridge divided into N relatively small rooms. In one of the rooms facing the sun, surrounded by various curtains, Levi saw the maids and servants of several races coming and going, busy. When he saw him, he would nod his head, and several human males with animal ears on their heads put a strange scent of wood into a small incense burner, filling the room with the smell of warm sunshine.
"You're here?"
The Queen's voice rang out, but she gave Levi a back—she was sitting in the corner of the room by the balcony, blowing the warm wind and burying her head in the case: "Titus? Count Levi, long time no see. ”
"Oh? …… I've heard of our queen's peculiar muscles...... Also once thought it could be you. Levi looked at the queen who was working at the desk, and on the sweltering days she was still covered in bandages and had a metal mask on her face—which made Levi feel a little sad.
"I said I was the Queen, but some people didn't believe me—sit down." After writing the last word of the instructions, the queen motioned for the attendants around her to take the document seal. She herself stood up slowly, leaning on her chair, speaking weakly, waving like a drunken man—but none of the attendants came to support her in the process, not because she was not overlooked, but because she did it on purpose.
"Titus? Count Levi - Oh? Are you surrounded by those legendary retinues of you? ”
"Yes, Queen." Levi watched a group of attendants come up with various fruits, and then rushed out, and there was really a characteristic among them—that is, each of them could be regarded as a beauty: "What, you got a lot of news?" ”
"Well, someone came to tell me -- our janitor was not happy to be taught a lesson by your men." The queen sat on the pile of cotton pillows opposite Levi, half-lying down and talking to him: "There are 120 loli standing outside, 120 loli - how can you not make me envious?" ”
Regardless of Levi's answer, the queen continued: "When I was very young, I found that I might be more interested in girls than boys, and when I grew up, I would not have a chance to judge whether I liked that more and cursed. Then there was the long 'one-year war' for me - less than a year, but it was so tired that it almost killed me, but it also made me boast for a long time, until now. I guess after I die, someone will say, 'There was once a king of the Holy Land, a woman, a cursed one, who promised heresy countless times -- ha, what a happy dog eats a dog.'" ”
After saying a lot in one breath, the queen seemed to be very talkative, or had a lot to say, and after taking a breath, the queen continued: "Me, Tessa? The final ending of the Lannister. ”
"Hmm...... Not really. Levi looked at the queen in front of him, the half-lying girl was weak all the time, "At least I don't see it that way." ”
"You? Enviable guys. The girl let out a slow breath, and then said: "Of course I envy everyone, I am very greedy and not enough - since I was a child, my ambition has been to be a person who eats and waits for death, and when I grow up, I am quite happy to be crowned, maybe I can be a faint king!" The country will be left to my rampant in the future, and the court will be filled with countless handsome men and women, and I can ignore the government and wait until the day I am killed by the rebels, whether the rebels are the peasants who robbed me of my children and wives, or the ministers who want to replace me - but I am not so lucky, and I am not the king. ”
"Oh?" Levi finally figured out why he felt that the other party was very kind, and it turned out that he was attracting to the same level: "Your ambitions are similar to mine—but it seems that you are very diligent?" ”
"Oh?" After taking a few deep breaths, Queen Tessa smiled and said, "So...... You...... Ambition like mine? Come on, be a faint gentleman - then again, will you give me a little bit of your 1,800 people? Anything goes--the one next to you is good for me, and I like it very much--I heard that the old fellow of Renard likes it too? ”
