Pierce VII pinched his eyebrows a little tiredly...... In the entire city of constant darkness, the only thing that can be said to be in the courtyard is full of earthly atmosphere.

This is an artificial environment created by magic, even if it is false, but for the emperor of the entire Shadow Country, it is already the only place where he can relax his mind.

Ever since the Royal Janissaries had returned with the news of Richard's death, Pierce had been feeling a sense of success and loss lately—he wondered if the Chosen One who had killed Richard would keep his promise and send divinity to his side. I had heard that after killing each other as the chosen ones, one party could inherit everything from the other...... Inherit the kind of thing that is called a 'mission'.

Divinity was so important to him...... When he was young and frivolous, he once entered the Wandering Condensation Realm, but he gained a lot of divinity, more than one hundred and sixty divinities, looking at the history of the past and present, this is also very rare, right? But it is only now that Pierce has a feeling of regret that he had acquired divinity so widely in the first place, and did not appreciate its quality.

If the quality of divinity is not stopped, this is actually a disadvantage for those who want to evolve their own divine realm in the future! Because of the imbalance of divinity, it is bound to lead to a situation where the realm of the gods does not reach a perfect state...... Even if because of the number of divinities, he has the potential to impact the twelve-star order, in the end, at most, he will become a twelve-star rank that is not up or down, and it is not very powerful.

Of course, there is still a world of difference compared to the eleventh star level. But since he has the ability to make himself a supreme and powerful twelve-star rank, why should he let it go?

So when Richard was about to get into the Wandering Realm, Pierce immediately wanted something. He wanted Richard to help him live enough divinity...... In fact, he didn't expect Richard to get so many at once, but as long as the top ones are fine.

These years of research have not only allowed Pierce VII to find a way to deprive himself of divinity. He even mastered a way to transform his divine attributes!

Then, as long as there is a sufficient amount of divinity, regardless of its own attributes, Pierce VII will always be able to make it suitable for him.

Richard is indeed a talent, the Chosen Earl of the Empire of Shadows, and his personal combat effectiveness is even only at the epic level. It can already compete with those ordinary first-star guards, if the strength is exhausted, then the second-star rank, which is not very strong in the will realm, is estimated to be lost in his hands, right?

Therefore, later Richard even put forward an idea, saying that when more people could also enter the Wandering Realm, Pierce VII could be described as a dragon-faced delight, and even directly promised that if Richard could really successfully return, he would give him the most beautiful princess of the empire as his wife.

For Pierce VII. In his long life, he has had many offspring, whether it is a princess with outstanding looks or a talented prince...... Many children, if you give one away to be able to make yourself the biggest regret in this life, it is really too cost-effective.

The emperor's mental trick, when he is ruthless, even he can calculate it, let alone this kind of offspring that can be born as much as he wants to give birth?

However. I waited with anticipation, but in the end, I received this kind of news that I don't know whether it is a joy or a curse...... Will that person really come?

Pierce VII had no way of knowing for sure. This is for an emperor. It's a very insecure state. He had thought that even if Richard failed, then he could use the same image to make the other Chosen Ones bring their own men again when they entered the Wandering Realm.

It's just that the one who came back has already made it clear that Charrettoru already knows that if it appears again, the Shadow Empire will be punished very severely...... The old guy who had zài before the Great War of the Hundred Tribes. To be honest, Pierce VII really couldn't afford to mess with.

"Your Majesty, it's late, you'll still rest in the bedroom, right?"

A soft voice came, a concubine chosen from the south of the empire. Pierce VII had found enough satisfaction in this woman, but not yet to the point of disgust. But somehow. Today, he was inexplicably irritable—even though he knew that taking this woman to the palace would give him a lot of physical and mental enjoyment.

"You go back, I want to go to the study."

Waving the woman away, Pierce VII stepped out of the royal courtyard. It is just a step away, and it is the transformation of light and darkness.

He frowned in disgust, but in his heart he had a lot of criticism for his ancestors. As an emperor of the lineage, he was appointed as the next emperor of the empire from the moment he was born. There is no difficulty in obtaining this empire...... But this also made Pierce VII feel that the imperial education from childhood to adulthood was meaningless.

He couldn't understand why his ancestors had abandoned the fertile and glorious land of the earth and chose to start an empire in a place where there was nothing and wild beasts were rampant. He was not even willing to accept the empire in his current hands, and still live in this boundless darkness.

Even if the ancestral rule of not expanding the territory of the empire to the earthly world had been forced to be copied countless times, Pierce VII was still not reconciled.

"I want to be the only master of the world above and below me!"

With a gleam in his eyes, Pierce VII pushed open the door to his study. In pursuit of this ideal, Pierce VII searched for information about the earthly world from the country, bound them into a book, and sent them to his study. From the territory map of the earthly world, to the geographical location of major empires and great powers, national customs, and so on.

The smell of books came from the air, and whenever this happened, Pierce VII felt a sense of relief. But this day is different.

Not only is it not reassuring, but it can even be said that the whole body is vigilant.

In the wicker chair in front of the window, where he was accustomed to sitting, sat lazily at the moment a man he had never seen before.

Pierce VII's gaze fell entirely on the man, watching him leisurely rest his hands on the armrests of the wicker chair, his head bowed, and he was reading a book in his hand.

The sound of Sasha turning the pages is particularly crisp in this quiet time period. The man didn't seem to notice the arrival of Pierce VII at all, but just looked at the book in his hand, as if he had entered a state of reading, and his face showed a kind of 'this book is interesting'.

This is the royal palace of the City of Constant Darkness, the most heavily guarded place in the entire underground world of the Shadow Empire, and this study is still used by contemporary emperors, even the prince and princess are not allowed to enter without the emperor's approval!

So this study has been built since it was built, and it has only been used by myself. However, at this moment, someone actually walked into this place and sat on his favorite rattan chair.

Pierce VII's first reaction was not to call out to the palace guards - the most powerful man in the palace was himself. Then he didn't even notice that anyone had invaded, let alone the arrival of those guards.

This guy is quite eccentric, and he clearly feels a will in him, but if you sense it slightly, that will disappear immediately.

His pupils contracted slightly, and with the demeanor of a man who looked down on the world, Pierce VII stepped into the threshold of the study quite calmly, and closed the door with his hand.

With his hands behind his back, he slowly walked to the position by the window - this is a recognition of his own strength, a kind of imperial self-confidence.

"This is an account of the mountains of the earthly world, do you find it interesting?"

The words, too, came out of the mouth of Pierce VII as they moved. As if disturbed by the sound, the person who was reading closed the book with some displeasure, closed his eyes at the same time, and lay down completely on the wicker chair, making clothes to recuperate, "It's not bad, at least there are some places I've never heard of." The person who made this album should be commended. ”

Strangely enough, hearing this man's words, Pierce VII not only did not feel any anger - this tone, this kind of speech that ignored the authority of the emperor of the underworld, as if he was the master of this world, made Pierce VII feel like he had never felt before.

It's like meeting a soulmate.

Raising his eyebrows, Pierce VII said proudly: "Of course! The people who made the atlas not only brought me a geographical map of the mountains, but also the rivers and the vast lakes! For this reason, I even personally conferred on him the title of Marquis of the Empire. ”

The man on the rattan chair chuckled and opened his eyes to look, "You are an emperor who does not hesitate to reward...... How? Don't you ask me who I really am? ”

Pierce VII laughed, walked to his desk and sat down, looked down at the book he had not finished reading last time on the desk, and said indifferently: "Since you are going to sue me about something, why should I ask?" ”

The man on the rattan chair glanced sideways at Pierce VII and seemed to find it very interesting, and with a wave of his hand, clusters of light suddenly appeared from the air and floated in front of Pierce VII one after another.

When that strange light came, Pierce VII's fingers trembled slightly, and even his breathing began to rapid!

Divinity!

This is divinity!

One hundred and sixty divinities!

He turned his head sharply and looked at the man who was still sitting lazily...... Even the owner of the entire underworld has times when he can't keep calm, "Who the hell are you?!" (To be continued......)
