The federal capital of Seton, Baudelaire House.

In the spacious and luxurious banquet hall, many celebrities have already arrived! The man is well-dressed and personable; The woman is glamorous and dressed up in fashion! At this time, they are getting together in twos and threes, discussing topics that interest them! Since none of the protagonists of the banquet have yet to appear, the dinner has not officially begun.

The topic that everyone is most concerned about is the recent situation in the Prison Soul Star Sea! As the army of the Tyroa Empire stepped up its offensive, the once-stable defensive line showed signs of collapse again!

For this reason, the bigwigs of the alliance have to find a way to deal with the Empire's troops again, in order to retain their authority!

Regarding the secret relationship between the alliance and the superpower north of the Star Sea: the Starlight Empire, it is no longer a secret in the upper echelons of the alliance! It is precisely because of the unsparing support of this great power that the alliance has been able to support until now!

Therefore, they were not surprised by the decision of several members of the Alliance to merge into the Starlight Empire. There is no such thing as a free lunch, and with so much assistance from others, it is natural to pay a price! What's more, with the current state of the alliance, it is simply unable to resist the offensive of the Tyloa Empire!

It's just that not long ago, an even more unprovoked behemoth came! The envoys of the Gnaslok Empire, with an edict from Ulionov IV, demanded that the entire alliance declare allegiance to the Empire, and for this purpose they were willing to provide the alliance with the necessary assistance to defend them against the Tyroa Empire.

As a result, the bigwigs who had once made up their minds to be loyal to the Starlight Empire began to look ahead and hesitate again!

Although the Starlight Empire is also a superpower, after all, it has only been a few years since its rise, and its potential deterrent power for them is obviously not as strong as the first empire in the human world!

After a few struggles, except for Xia Qiying, the head of the Monroe Star Bandit Group, the rest of them are inclined to choose allegiance to the Gnasrock Empire!

As for whether this move will completely anger the big country in the north and bring unimaginable trouble to the alliance, they have selectively ignored it!

As long as you are in the First Empire, these troubles should not be a problem! This is how they comfort themselves in their hearts!

That's why they snubbed the advance fleet of the Starlight Empire, and planned to get closer to Duke Aubrey, and they didn't hesitate to sacrifice their allies for this!

"His Royal Highness the Duke should be arriving soon, right?"

In the study, Baudelaire asked his butler.

"Your Excellency, His Royal Highness the Duke's fleet has been departing for nearly an hour, and I believe it will arrive soon!" The butler replied respectfully.

Baudelaire nodded, waved him back, and looked at the allies next to him.

"Do you think that's really appropriate?" Wilbert Shang said with some hesitation, "The attitude of the Northern Imperial Court towards us is still very friendly, and it has always been assisting us, and we have been able to support it until now, all because of them!" Now, because of the lie of that guy in Aubrey, he has to change his flag and allegiance to them, this decision, no matter how you look at it, is not very clever! ”

De Veria sighed, "But the strength of the First Empire is stronger than the Starlight Empire after all, isn't it?" We want to take refuge, of course, we can only choose the stronger one! The country to the north is good to us, but don't we supply them with a lot of resources cheaply? I don't owe them anything! ”

Baudelaire also chimed in: "That's right, Ulionov IV is a great talent, and he is the best candidate for the most promising unification of Xinghai at present!" It is only natural that we choose him, and as for the Northern Imperial Court, it is difficult to say how long it will last! I still want to get involved in the Prison Soul Star Sea, it's just wishful thinking! ”

Xia Qiying, who was dressed up, sneered: "You guys have a good idea!" But I don't want to think about it, no matter how strong the Gnaslock Empire is, do you still have the strength to take care of you now? The threat of the Tyroa Empire is so close at hand, that old devil of Ferosis won't turn a blind eye to you just because you've taken refuge in that empire! In addition to strength, there will be no second thing that can make him retreat! ”

"When the time comes, what will you do against the legions of Philosis? What to do to face the wrath of the Northern Court? Just with Aubrey's 500,000 fleet? ”

Baudelaire said with some embarrassment: "This...... Probably not a problem! With the strength of the First Empire, it is not difficult to draw some more legions over at all! His Royal Highness the Duke of Aubrey also said that as long as we swear allegiance, he will immediately ask His Majesty the Emperor to send reinforcements! ”

"What's more, as long as you marry His Royal Highness the Duke, the relationship is closer, and it is even more impossible for him to abandon us!"

"That Emperor is in a war with the Shalestin, so how can he take care of our business?" Xia Qiying said angrily, "In the end, we still have to rely on our own strength to resist the Tiloa Empire!" You're forcing me to obey that old ghost, thinking that this way I can sit back and relax? What a joke! ”

"The fleet of the Starlight Empire is stationed near this star field, and their emperor is about to arrive! When the time comes, I see what you will do? ”

Defray hesitated, "No matter how powerful that Yun Haoyu is, he won't dare to risk provoking the First Empire to embarrass us, right?" ”

For this kind of assumption and self-righteous judgment, Xia Qiying is too lazy to refute! She just felt disappointed in her heart, these guys used to be quite shrewd, why are they all more confused than the other now!

At this moment, the light brain on Baudelaire's wrist trembled slightly, he looked down, his face changed wildly in an instant, and his body trembled like a convulsion!

"What's going on?" Wilbert asked, puzzled.

"Those crazy people from the Starlight Empire have caused us a catastrophe!" His voice trembled.

"What?" Everyone asked in unison.

……

In the banquet hall, there is no longer that relaxed and quiet at the moment, revealing an elegant and noble atmosphere! Instead, there is a mountain of slaughter and blood!

Thousands of high-level adepts in full armor have surrounded the entire mansion! Fu Chengxiang and Zhao Qingyang, as well as two god-level powerhouses, stood proudly in the center of the hall, with a bunch of bloody human heads at their feet!

The invited guests retreated to the other end of the hall in a panic, huddled together with each other, and looked at the group of uninvited guests who exuded a strong murderous aura around them!

"What about your masters? Tell them to come out and talk! Fu Chengxiang held his sword and said in a flat tone.

Several directors with weak hands and feet rushed to the secret room as if they were running for their lives, and on the way, they saw several bigwigs coming over with heavy faces!

Seeing them appear, Fu Chengxiang greeted with a smile: "Your Excellency, today is really a good day!" ”

A few bigwigs couldn't help but stiffen, good days? What a good day? What a good day to kill! This group of lawless guys, dare to find fault on purpose?

"What do you mean, two generals?" Baudelaire's face turned pale, and he asked in surprise and anger.

"It's not interesting!" Zhao Qingyang said coldly, "I heard that several Your Excellencies are planning to entertain the envoys of the Gnasrock Empire, and we are also very happy when we learn about it, and we specially sent some gifts to you to express our hearts!" ”

As he spoke, he picked up a human head at his feet with the tip of his sword, flicked it lightly, and threw it at Baudelaire's feet!

The guy subconsciously looked down and caught a glimpse of Aubrey's gray face full of astonishment and fear, and a few bits of red and white brains splashed onto his spotlessly polished high-end leather shoes!

"You...... You ......" Baudelaire pointed at him, trembling and speechless! I don't know if I'm angry or scared!

The faces of the remaining guys were extremely ugly, but only Xia Qiying's beautiful eyes were lowered, hiding the relieved smile.

"Two generals, I think it is necessary for you to give a reasonable explanation for your actions! Otherwise, even if you are an important figure in the Starlight Empire, don't blame us for not being polite! Wilbert finally calmed down, and said with a fierce face.

"Explain?" Fu Chengxiang sneered and said, "Okay! I'll give you an explanation! ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the previous agreement between the Empire and you, as long as His Majesty the Emperor succeeds in defeating the Shuofeng Empire and enters the Tianhua Star Domain, you will swear allegiance to the Empire and become the courtiers of the Empire! In exchange, we'll send troops to help you defend against the armies of the Tyroa Empire! Is that so? ”

“…… Yes, but ......," Baudelaire said with a sigh.

Fu Chengxiang interrupted him unceremoniously: "Yes, it's good!" If you still agree to this agreement, why are you hooking up with the people of the Gnarslok Empire? Is it possible that you still want to be left and right? ”

"Your Excellency General, this is our internal affair, and you have no right to intervene!" Wilbert defended himself.

"Internal affairs?" Fu Chengxiang sneered, "Gentlemen, I seem to remember that His Majesty the Emperor only promised to make you dukes, but he didn't allow you to retain a semi-independent autonomous regime, right?" Can I interpret this as a sign that you intend to reneg on the agreement and the Empire? ”

"Nope! That's not true! We ......" DiVeria also wanted to argue.

"I'll just ask you one thing now!" The heavy sword in Fu Chengxiang's hand arced lightly, and the tip of the sword pointed at Baudelaire:

"With so much help from us, now we have promised to personally send troops to help you clean up the Tyroa Empire! But you still want to cross the river and tear down the bridge, planning to kick us away and go to the Gnaslok Empire, do you really think we are Kaizi? ”

"Now that we've killed this man, what's next? You'd better give a clear answer! ”

Baudelaire said weakly: "You dare to kill the envoy of the Gnarslock Empire, are you not afraid of retaliation?" No matter how strong you are, you can't be an opponent of the First Empire! ”

"You don't have to worry about that! The Gnaslok Empire is naturally up to us to deal with! Zhao Qingyang said stiffly, "You only need to swear allegiance to our Emperor Majesty!" ”

Baudelaire was about to say something, but the light brain on his wrist trembled again, and when he saw the content clearly, his body shook and he almost collapsed on the spot!

The news on it is: The fleet of the Starlight Empire suddenly attacked, not only encircled and annihilated the fleet of the Gnasrock Empire, but also broke through the star defense near the wormhole, and has controlled the entire star field!
