From some angles, you can see that the roof and the palace wall occasionally flash a trace of magic lines, and between the palace buildings, the halberd giant sword in the hands of the golden armor guards adds a little bit of anger to the entire palace. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In His Majesty's bedroom of the Emperor, the candles have not yet been lit, and the afterglow of the sunset can no longer be spread to every corner of the palace, struggling to emit the last light in the interweaving of light and shadow, faintly showing the slightest wisps of twilight.

"Your Majesty, this is the magic communication that the royal mages have just received, is it ...... It was the front-line military situation reported by Lord Marquis Griffins. A chamberlain respectfully approached the dozing Emperor and carefully whispered to wake up His Majesty.

Although Gavin XII, the emperor of the Waru Empire, is old and faint and his energy is declining, and many government affairs are handled by the empress's relatives and nobles, after all, he is an old emperor who has controlled the court for many years, but the military power will never let go, and the military information transmitted from the front line was sent to Gavin XII at the first time.

His Majesty the Emperor raised his eyelids, tried to sober himself up, propped up his body nested in the chair with both hands, straightened his waist hard, and then looked down at the military intelligence report in his hand. His Majesty the Emperor raised his hand again and handed the military report back to the chamberlain: "Read!"

In the trembling chanting of the inner attendants, His Majesty the Emperor's face became more and more ugly, and his face, which was covered with age spots and folds and ravines, turned blue.

"That's enough!" a sudden shout interrupted the waiter's soft chanting, and the waiter fell to the ground in horror. His Majesty the Emperor's hand slapped the armrest of the chair.

"Hmph! I believe that the Grizzlies were defeated in an ambush! I can also believe that McShunner is stubborn and self-serving! But I still don't know who Griffins is? What personally led his private soldiers to save the Grizzly Legion from danger! What struggled to repel the pursuit of the Southern Legion! It's all fart, since that old guy from Wagner can make even the Grizzlies deflated, can he Griffins defeat? How many pounds and taels does he have, I still don't know?" Although His Majesty the Emperor is no longer as angry as he was back then, this angry roar still caused the attendants in the palace to curl up one after another, for fear of being angered by His Majesty the Emperor.

"How could those useless aristocratic private soldiers, those timid and short-sighted nobles' sons defeat the old Wagner's legions, I let them go to quell the rebellion just to ease the contradictions between the royal family and the nobility, and really when I have high hopes for them?! Do you really think I'm so confused that I can't tell a lie?" His Majesty the Emperor muttered to himself as he tapped on the handrail.

As he spoke, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly paused, and asked, "Has Commander McShouner's military intelligence report been delivered?"

The inner attendant didn't dare to raise his head and said: "Your Majesty, the Grizzly Legion is a pure combat legion, and there are no military mages, so even if it is sent quickly in the army, it will have to wait until early tomorrow morning to send it over!"

"Hmph! These rotten and erosive aristocratic moths are about to empty my country, and the marquis of his Griffins fief has a military mage, but the grizzly bear, one of the four legions of the dignified empire, can't even send magic communications, where are the mages who graduate from the Royal Academy of Magic every year????!! are all dead ahem......" His Majesty's roar was followed by a violent cough accompanied by a sizzling sound that sounded like a broken bellows, and His Majesty the Emperor leaned feebly on the back of his chair, panting weakly, his cloudy eyes showing resentment, disgust, and sorrow and despair at his inability to support the affairs of the state.

At the same time, the royal mages had already sent the military intelligence copy they received to the queen, who was in charge of the affairs of the court.

"Oh?! The Grizzly Legion was defeated by the Southern rebels? It seems that Wagner's old dog is really not to be underestimated! I heard that his son William Wagner can also be regarded as a young talent, and it seems that the Wagner family is determined to wrestle with the Empire!" "The queen wearing a gorgeous crown looks about thirty or forty years old, and from the delicate nose and deep eye sockets, it can be seen that she was also a gorgeous beauty when she was young, but unfortunately she is now a. Gently twisted up the military information handed over by the chamberlain, and after reading it, the queen's expression did not change and handed it to a middle-aged nobleman beside her.

The middle-aged nobleman bowed down and took the military information with both hands, studied it carefully for a while, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment before saying: "Griffins's military information is probably a bit untrue, although McShunner has a straightforward and simple temperament and does not know how to behave in the world, but his ability to lead troops is not weak, after all, the Grizzly Legion is one of the four major legions of the empire, even if it is ambushed, it should not be defeated so easily." As for what Griffins said about leading troops to rescue and so on, it's just nonsense, and with his little rat-like guts, he still fights the Southern rebels? I'm afraid no one will be stupid enough to believe him!"

"Hehe, dear brother Roy, although Griffins is arrogant and arrogant, he is our relative after all, and since he has sent such a military report, then we can also push the boat down the river and give him some merits, that is not impossible. The queen looked at the military situation in the hands of her brother Marquis Roy, and a smile slowly appeared on her face.

The Empress's words made Marquis Roy feel a little dissatisfied, but he didn't show anything on his face, but pretended to be relaxed and said, "Then Griffins will make a lot of money, but ...... Isn't it too much to reward him for such a military offer?"

After listening to Marquis Roy's words, the queen didn't say anything, but raised her left hand and waved it back, and the knowing chamberlains bowed down and retreated.

"A military newspaper is enough to make us do something. His Majesty the Emperor's body...... I'm afraid we don't have much time, and we need to hurry. Normally, although His Majesty the Emperor allows us to control the affairs of the government, the old fox has never been willing to relax the slightest bit of military power, but now, ......" After the chamberlains exited the room and closed the door, the Empress said something that made Marquis Roy very nervous.

"Now with this letter from Griffins, we can legitimately rebuke His Majesty for McHuner's defeat, and even offer to remove him, thus holding the Grizzlies in our hands. As for Griffins, it's nothing to let him follow, after all, he is also our cousin, and the private battalion is also in his hands, although he can't count on anything, but he can be regarded as a help more or less!" the queen narrowed her eyes slightly, and said her plan.

"Okay! what a great idea!" Marquis Roy clapped his hands in appreciation, and then he couldn't help rubbing his hands again, and asked with a greedy and covetous expression, "So...... What are my sister's plans for the Grizzly Legion? My eldest son, Carter, graduated from the Royal Military Academy, and has some ability to command the army!"

Seeing that her brother looked anxious about his son Jackie Chan and worried, the queen couldn't help but cover her cherry lips and laughed softly: "Haha! Brother, brother, don't worry, how can I not take care of my nephew! As long as His Majesty the Emperor relaxes, who will take over the Grizzly Bear Army, isn't it up to us to decide?"

With the queen's promise, Marquis Roy was very determined, and couldn't help but think that if the emperor returned to heaven one day, and the queen was his own person, if the eldest son Carter could control the Grizzly Legion, he might not be able to change the Varu Empire from day to day, and then he could also taste the majesty of ascending the throne as the emperor and ruling the world.

Seeing Marquis Roy fall into conjecture, a trace of displeasure flashed in the queen's eyes, this brother of his own family is good at everything, but he is a little ambitious and far-sighted, and he likes to daydream all day long, and lacks the ability to work hard.

Everything that happened in the imperial capital was far away, and no one could have imagined that the progress of the series of events that took place on the southern border would be so unbelievable.

......

South of the city of Rien, when passing through the camp of the Grizzly Legion, Leo and the others found that the patrol soldiers of the Grizzly Legion they met along the way were all with sad expressions on their faces, and many of them were depressed.

Leo frowned, realizing that the situation seemed to be a little delicate, and it looked like the Imperial Rebel Army had fought a defeated battle, which would be a bit unfavorable to him. As an archaeology student, Leo can draw lessons from the long history of thousands of years, and found that if the counterinsurgency army loses, and he and Raymond make a great feat, he may become a thorn in the side of everyone in the entire counterinsurgency army, which is not in line with his style of making a fortune in a low-key manner.

However, until the group came to the gate of the private barracks, Leo did not come up with any good solutions, so he had to take one step at a time, and he could not afford to regret it anymore, because Raymond had already stepped forward to the gate of the barracks to report his identity.

I said, brother, where have you been going? You have just come back after the battle is over, and you are too foolish to reconnoiter like this!" The private soldier on duty at the gate did not have due vigilance and caution at all, and after hearing Raymond's identity, he laughed at the two of them.

And just when the group of private soldiers on duty were laughing, the face of one of the private soldiers changed, and while the private soldiers were laughing, he quietly retreated and ran towards the inside of the barracks.

"The battle is over, can't we? We just came back with the information of the Southern Green City, how can the battle be over?" Raymond was confused by the laughter of the private soldiers.

"Little rookie, tell you! The grizzly bears in the south of the city were ambushed by the Southern Army and died before escaping back, if we hadn't followed the Marquis of Griffins to see the opportunity early, I'm afraid we would have been Xuan!" The private soldiers explained to Raymond with a smile before Leo and Raymond and the others understood what had happened recently.

"The Grizzly Legion was ambushed, and it was defeated? How is this possible? The Grizzly Legion is one of the elite legions in the empire, how can the Southern Army defeat the Grizzly Legion with that little combat effectiveness?!" Raymond's first reaction when he heard the news was disbelief.

"Hey, you little kid still dare to doubt Lao Tzu! Tell you, all the people in Lien City know about this, you can just inquire about it!" The private soldier saw that Raymond didn't believe it, and he became anxious.

Leo recalled what he saw at the Grizzly Legion's station, and he believed it in his heart, and he didn't hesitate at the moment, and directly pulled Raymond, who still wanted to say something, into the private barracks.
