The East Coast fell overnight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The one who was most affected by this news should be the Central Wangcheng.

When people got up from their beds after a good night's sleep, they heard the terrible news that the east coast had fallen and the Northland demon species had come ashore.

What seemed to be far away turned into an imminent crisis in an instant.

Maybe tomorrow morning, the demon seed will break through all defenses and descend under the Central Royal City.

The people were boiling and panicking, and the prestige that Winnington had accumulated by defeating the knights of Saint Laurent was exhausted.

A large crowd took to the streets, demanding an explanation from the military department.

Obviously, since last year, the war tax has been increased by a large amount, saying that it is to strengthen the defense of various defense lines and improve the quality of armaments.

Not to mention the defense line of the Iron Wall Pass, which is comparable to the Central Royal City, is the East Coast, and it has also invested a lot of money to build the East Coast defense system, which is known as impregnable, and it is impossible to let an enemy go ashore no matter what.

As a result, less than half a month after the outbreak of the war, the supposedly impregnable East Coast defense line had collapsed, and the demon seed had already landed.

Everyone felt that they were still dreaming, that they didn't wake up last night, and that everyone was sleepwalking collectively.

But the bright skylight, the air, and the slightly cold wind still made them realize that it had really happened.

Those things.

The people surrounded the military headquarters, and the shouts had pierced the sky.

No one was afraid of the guards with spears and knives and grim-faced faces.

When the fear in the heart accumulates to the limit, ordinary people will also become fearless.

Therefore, a scholar once said that the power of the people, united as an ocean, is unstoppable.

On the other hand, the palace, which was supposed to be the center of this storm, was cold and cold.

The emperor, who had been on the throne for more than a year, couldn't help but yawn when he sat in the empty hall and felt the loneliness of being an emperor and the grievance of being a puppet.

"Did anything happen today?" he asked casually.

Originally, ordinary emperors, at this time, would have close attendants to report immediately.

But he, the puppet emperor, didn't have this kind of treatment at all, and he was also extremely bored, so he asked casually, and didn't intend to get an answer.

But this time, I don't know if the servant in charge of waiting for him did it on purpose, or if his conscience found it, so he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, today, the east coast has been attacked, and the demon seed has come ashore." ”

"Poof-" His Majesty Charles, who was only halfway through the yawn, fell off the throne with his ass.

Compared with the panic of His Majesty the Emperor, Winnington, who was the real core of this storm, seemed to be in a good place.

He stood in front of the huge window of his office with his hands behind his back, watched the morning sun shine on the lake, chuckled and sighed, "The sun is really good today." ”

The "General ......" had already reported everything that had happened in the Central Royal City to Winnington's deputy, and he really didn't know why at this time, the young general's Excellency could still be so calm and relaxed, as if nothing had happened.

Perhaps, this is the gap between him and the general.

"Yes, I see. Winnington nodded, "Let them go, they're all poor people, let them vent their fears." ”

"That ......" the deputy paused and began to ask a substantive question, "The final opinion on Quint's disposition is ......"

In fact, less than an hour after the fall of the East Coast last night, the Central Military Department got the news.

Subsequently, they also checked the whereabouts of Quint Nulem, who was supposed to be the governor of the East Coast, but the commander-in-chief of the East Coast Resistance Army who had made the last desperate resistance this time, but had mysteriously disappeared.

There are all kinds of signs that this former anti-demon hero, the most outstanding human on the East Coast, abandoned the entire East Coast, did not even make a little resistance, and ran away with his subordinates more than an hour before the demon seed landed, and the direction of the run was southeast.

As of four o'clock in the morning this morning, the Governor, who had escaped from the battle, had defied all the clear rules and fled with his men into the territory of the southeastern provinces.

At a meeting of the military headquarters three hours earlier, a large number of generals demanded the immediate execution of the cowardly governor.

However, some people said that the public announcement of his crime at this time would certainly cause panic throughout the country and affect the stability of the southeastern provinces.

For the sake of the Empire, the first task is to do a good job of stabilizing the frightened Governor.

This is a sentence that no matter which word is heard by people outside, they will be eager to cut the person who said it with a thousand cuts.

But sometimes, that's the way it goes.

A man who should have sinned heinously, for reasons of one greater or less, you have to cover up his sins for him, and praise him and call him a hero.

This is true of many people and many things in history.

"Let him be the marshal of the resistance army in the southeast region, unify the forces of the southeast province, and contain the demon seed from the side. Wen Nington said, "Well, also, about last night's incident, the external statement, it is said that he fought to the end, and finally lost to the demon seed, and retreated with a small number of soldiers. ”

The deputy was silent.

"Any more questions?" Winnington couldn't help but glance back at his deputy.

"General, ...... The southeast will be in complete chaos. The deputy said in an extremely difficult tone.

"Then let it mess up. Winnington's smile was gentle, but his eyes were extremely cold.

"Some people just hope that the whole world will be in chaos, and I will follow his wishes. ”

"General......" The deputy asked another question, "I don't understand." ”

"You don't understand. Winnington nodded, tapped his fingers on the table, and said, "Do you know that people, under what circumstances, will become the most powerful?"

“...... When you are desperate?" the deputy thought for a moment and replied.

"No, it's time for greed. Winnington whispered the word as if chanting, and he turned to look out the window again.

The sun shrouded in gold, the lake glowed golden, and he breathed heavily, embracing everything with open arms.

"I want to live, I want more power, I want to go down in history, I want revenge, I want to revive my family, I want to see my most beloved person, and look, there are so many greedy and powerful people in this world!!"

"I love the world. ”
