Chapter 515: Entering Alone
After hearing Leo's shout, the guards on the walls of the palace relaxed immediately. The name of the Grand Duke of Pritz www.biquge.info the pen and the Fun Pavilion is resounding throughout the continent, and it can be said that it is simply the pride of the Kingdom of Lorraine.
Almost every Lorraine who has participated in the Great Retreat of the Royal City knows that without this venerable Grand Duke of Pritz, the entire Kingdom of Lorraine would no longer exist, and it has now become a province of the Paris Empire, just like the original Anderheitam Business Alliance. It is said that until now, Anderheitham has been resisting, giving the Parisians a headache.
The captain of the garrison on duty did not say a word, and while ordering a message to be sent to the palace, he ordered the palace gate to be opened to welcome the arrival of the Grand Duke of Pritz.
Although Leo was secretive when he came and was not discovered by Lorraine's investigation team, King Pique was also prepared and was not too surprised by Leo's arrival. After all, he had long known that Leo's methods were strange, and it was easy to fool those interrogating soldiers.
However, Pique's purpose in setting up checkpoints at major intersections was not to stop Leo, but to prevent Leo from leading his army to raid the royal city. Now that Leo entered the royal city without alarming any levels, at least it means that there are not many people with him with him. In this way, King Pique is more confident in his next plan.
The architectural style of the Lorraine Palace is very distinctive, almost all the walls are painted with various functions of magic patterns, although after wars and looting, those mysterious and luxurious magic patterns are still clearly visible. Following the guidance of the palace attendants, Leo slowly walked along the avenue of the palace, constantly scanning the majestic palace city.
Although he had been in and out of the palace of Lorraine several times, it was only when time was tight and the situation was critical, and Leo did not have a good view of this palace architecture that is rarely seen by ordinary people. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Leo paced slowly, taking in the various buildings of the palace of Lorraine.
The chamberlain who was in charge of leading Leo was secretly anxious in his heart, for fear that he had mistaken His Majesty's affairs, but he did not dare to urge the Grand Duke of Pritz out loud, so he could only pause again and again, and wailed in his heart and begged His Excellency the Grand Duke of Pritz to follow him as soon as possible.
It's a pity that Leo didn't notice the anxious appearance of the chamberlain, and still walked unhurriedly. However, behind Leo, Feng Xifan noticed that the anxious look of the waiter seemed to be a little unusual, and a fierce gaze flashed in the cold triangular eyes.
The snow-white Mage Merlin still wears his trademark round-pointed hat, and even a few patches can be seen on his old gray robes. He had been in the royal city of Lorraine for a long time, and he also found that there seemed to be something wrong with the guards in the palace, and there were many guards in some places that were not on duty, and the whole palace seemed to be loose and tight, obviously guarding against something.
Immorton, who is good at the power of death, is very sensitive to the living, and when a large number of guards secretly moved to monitor them, Immorton had already sensed it, but he did not reveal it. Because at present, most of Leo's subordinates unanimously believe that with Leo's current strength, it is long overdue to replace the Kingdom of Lorraine.
If King Pique was going to ambush Leo, Immorton would not stop him, but might secretly provide them with some convenience. Only if they take the initiative to take action against Leo, then Leo, who has been entangled in his oath to King Fairman, will fight back in order to protect himself.
Among the four heroes brought by Leo this time, three of them have already noticed that King Pique may be hiding evil intentions, and all three of them are scheming people, and some news is passed on in the extremely hidden communication between the three, and only Achilles is still following Leo with a big grin, and he is really enjoying the palace scenery with Leo.
Whether in Greece or in Northern Europe, except for a few sinister and evil gods, the vast majority of gods and demigods are like this, no matter what contradictions and disputes, they just do it without saying a word! As an invulnerable and powerful half-body hero, Achilles does not care at all what intrigues and tricks the enemy will use, anyway, he only needs to fight in a dignified manner, and any conspiracy and tricks can be broken.
Just as Leo and his party slowly came to the inner city of the palace, a Lorraine general that Leo had never seen before stopped Leo and the others with the palace guards.
"Dear Grand Duke of Pritz, good day!" the Lorraine general greeted Leo with a smile, and then said apologetically, "I'm very sorry, Your Excellency, His Majesty the King has summoned only one of you, and these people behind you cannot enter." ”
Hearing this, Leo raised his eyebrows, looked at the unfamiliar face of the general, shook his head slightly, and smiled noncommittally. Feng Xifan took the opportunity to step forward and whispered: "The situation doesn't seem right, it's better for you to be careful."
"Well, I know what I know!" Leo whispered back. In fact, even if Feng Xifan didn't remind him, Leo also sensed that something was wrong.
After dealing with King Fairman and Peake for so long, especially when he once evacuated the royal city together and fought back, Leo was familiar with almost everyone in the officers and generals in the royal city guards, especially when he was in the three southern provinces, Leo had deliberately befriended a group of Lorraine officers in order to install Ney into the Praetorian Guard, but the guard general in front of him was very faceless, and none of the guards he brought knew him.
This shows that Pique has deliberately purged the generals around him who have taken the initiative to contact Leo, so Pique's doing this just shows that he has always distrusted Leo and has always been guarding against Leo. And Leo knew such people very well, and the more he made contributions, the more suspicious he would become, just as he had encountered in the Varu Empire. This is true whether it is Raymond or Pique.
Leo couldn't help but sneer secretly in his heart, it seemed that this time it might be a Hongmen banquet, and it was for himself. If you don't have any preparation, I'm afraid you'll really fall into Pique's way.
"Master Feng, you stay! I'll just go by myself, I want to see what this Lorraine Palace looks like!" Leo turned around and instructed the four of them, but in secret, Leo still informed Feng Xifan in a fascinated way: "Master Feng, if you find something wrong in the inner palace, bring them to help immediately." ”
With that, Leo strode into the inner palace of the palace. The chamberlain had already been waiting for Leo in front.
