In the hallway outside the conference hall, Franco and Graham walked out side by side.

Although the afternoon sun shines through the glass windows, filling the entire corridor with warm colors, the continuous sound of artillery fire outside makes the mood of everyone walking inside heavy, and naturally spreads a gloomy atmosphere. Earl Duane and Master Edel followed them for a while, and then dispersed.

Gram sensed that no one was watching around him, and sneered, "Brother, do you see it? This is how angry our emperor looks. He is always wise and right, and all problems come from others. I have saved my soldiers, but I am seen as a disadvantage in battle, do I have to break two arms as well?"

"He's just an angry kid at this point. Franko's face was just as ugly.

"Our family has never been sorry for the Empire. My father still doesn't know life and death for the sake of the empire, and he actually treats us like this. Gramm's right fist hit his left palm, "It's better for us to go directly to negotiate with the Chinese and find our father." ”

"Do you want to trade directly with the Chinese?" said Franco, "then at least we need to know whether my father is dead or alive." ”

"Maybe whether my father is dead or alive, we should talk to the Chinese. Graham said, "I say this for a reason, do you know who I met before? Molet! The Black Guard commander Molet, who we thought would definitely die, was actually rescued by the Chinese. Now he can lead the whole team in the Chinese army. He was the Great Swordsman who fought against me before. ”

Franco said, "The Chinese actually cured him of the plague?"

"It's not so much a cure, it's a resurrection for some reason. I've felt that there's no sense of negative energy in him at all. Graham said.

That means he can't be an undead either. ”

Gramm said, "Yes. It's a state that we don't know, but we keep all of our strength as before. But more importantly, I can feel that he is volunteering to serve the Chinese, and the Chinese actually trust him so much. Can you imagine that our Emperor would do the same thing?

Morette asked me who was our family's real enemy at the moment. If the empire is defeated, who will be responsible for those defeats? Is it the 'wise and martial' Majesty, or the 'stupid and cowardly' you and me?"

"This is a provocative, very shoddy discordant scheme. Franko said.

Graham said: "If there can be a division between vassals and monarchs, it only means that there is such soil between them. ”

Franco was silent, and the two of them had already reached the door of the palace by this time. He pushed open the door and stepped outside, the sound of artillery fire not far ahead.

The two walked a little further, avoiding the surrounding sentry posts. Franko said, "I didn't expect you to have such an idea. ”

"Do you remember the scene when my father was thrown off the roof by the Emperor? If Gandath hadn't just come in, what do you think would have been like for me? I would have been better than my father?" ”

The two walked down the hillside, and happened to meet two black guards walking over with an elite guard of their family.

Graham stretched out his hand to stop them and said, "Anisetto, weren't you captured by the Chinese?"

"Lord Gramm, Lord Franco, I am now a messenger released by the Chinese, and they want to take me to His Majesty the Emperor. The personal guard named Anisetto said, he glanced at the black guard beside him and said, "Two lords, I have a few words that the Duke asked me to bring you, and I hope to tell you privately. ”

"Father is alive, what's going on now?" asked Gramm.

"Lord Duke was captured by the Chinese and was wounded, but when I saw him, he seemed to be in good spirits. However, Duke Marcus was killed in battle, Master Cynthia was seriously wounded and captured, and Duke Stuart fell into a deep sleep from which he could not wake up. In short, none of the masters who participated in the duel on the frontal battlefield escaped. Anisetto said.

"Stop! The black guard who was escorting him interrupted Anisetto, "You are a messenger from the Tower of China, and you cannot tell anyone what you know until you have seen Your Majesty. ”

A golden light flashed in Gramm's hard hand, and as soon as he pressed on the black guard, he flew over and fell down seven or eight stone steps.

"My people want to talk to me, and no one can control me. Gramm unfurled a barrier of light, enveloping Franco and Anisetto, and he said to Anisetto, "Go on. ”

"The Duke didn't say much about it, but only asked me to bring a letter, and he said that you will know what to do after reading the letter. He asked you to read the letter in the fourth set of secret words and then make your own decisions. Anisetto bent down and tore open the upper of his boot and pulled out a letter from it.

After the Blackguard re-escorted Anisetto, Franco and Graham entered an unnoticed house and opened the Duke's letter.

Frank looked at Xinxin and said, "There are actually two sets of secret words nested. Judging from the first set of secret words, this is a letter of persuasion for us to take refuge in the Chinese, but if we read it through the fourth set of secret words, it is very different...... What!"

"Father has such an idea?" Gramm, who double-checked the contents of the secret words, also looked at his brother with a shocked expression, "Do you think this is what he really meant?"

"Yes, no one can coerce him into writing such a letter. I guess the first set of secret words is used to fool the Chinese, and this second set of riddles is what he really wants to tell us. Franko said in a deep voice.

Seeing Gramm's contemplative look, he said, "Are you really going to do what he wants?"

Graham raised his head and said, "Hmph, I've had such an idea in my heart for a long time, don't you?

He is now with the Chinese and should know the overall situation better than we do. Perhaps, as he said, this is an opportunity for our whole family. ”

Before Frank could answer, he felt a powerful spatial fluctuation behind him. The two of them looked at the emperor's palace together, and then a powerful coercion appeared in the palace, which was the power that escaped when the people beyond their realm tore the space.

"Is this power ......?"

"Morales Sage?"
