Chapter 460: Arrest
Joe was suddenly glad that he was a lowly official.
After solving the chaos in the headquarters building of the Royal Bank and mobilizing a large army to lock down the entire block, Margrethe III patted her ass and ran away with the old monster Mediga.
The officials of the Delen Empire, together with the Cathedral of St. Cloud and the Cathedral of St. Maya, were busy wiping their butts, and the ambassadors of the countries of the Metland Continent to the Deren Empire were like hornets that exploded their nests, flocking to the Hydra Palace.
At the Hydra Palace, the Hajj Hall, hundreds of ambassadors from various countries and their important attachΓ©s gathered to besiege Mata XIII and Salian, who were already exhausted.
Whether it was Mata XIII or Salian, their hair was messy, they were sweating profusely, and their clothes were also pulled by those ambassadors, and I pulled them and made them scattered. The two grandparents and grandchildren don't look like royals with distinguished status at all, but they feel like little girls who have been bullied by the ruffians, hooligans, and hooligans on the street.
Joe, Caesar the Great, Caesar the Younger, and Salian's chief secretary Fox von Rhein, as well as a group of Salian's hardcore confidants, all stood in the corner away from the main entrance of the Hajj ceremony.
There are several huge granite pillars here, and a group of people hide behind the pillars, quietly listening to the movement in the main hall.
The ambassadors, who were usually personable and graceful, are now like shrews on the streets, shouting hysterically.
The embassies of more than 20 small countries were very unlucky, and when several gas plants exploded, a series of explosions caused by gas pipelines also destroyed their embassies, and some officials were injured or even killed.
However, the key to everyone's entanglement is not the loss of their own embassy, but the gold bricks under the headquarters of the Royal Bank, as well as the 'robbery' of those extraordinary weapons.
Cash with a market value of nearly 100 billion gold marks, as well as extraordinary weapons with a total value of more than 100 billion, and a small part of the price cannot be estimated - the divine power potion that can only be allowed by the lion of the Yingui Church to open his mouth and shout the price in the sky.
Such a huge fortune, the headquarters building of the Royal Bank of the Deren Empire, of which the Delun Empire is the majority shareholder, is in the core area of the imperial capital of the Deren Empire...... Kidnapped!
No matter what means the other party uses, no matter who the other party is...... In short, such a huge fortune is gone!
A group of ambassadors were roaring, invective, and hysterically besieging Mata XIII and Salion, two unlucky bastards.
The ambassador of the Ice Sea Kingdom had the loudest voice: "Don't think we will pay an extra gold pound...... Yes, I take full responsibility for my words, and I take full responsibility and consequences for every word I say...... We won't pay even a single gold pound more! β
The ambassador of the Gallic Republic shouted in a strange voice: "I completely agree with the opinion of the Ice Sea Kingdom...... Our country has been in financial difficulties recently, and we can't come up with even one more gold! β
With a heavy cough, the Gallic Republic cried out in a high-pitched, rooster-like voice: "Even if we squeeze our marrow dry, we will not be able to come up with another gold!" β
The ambassador of the United Kingdom of Nice was not small, and he announced loudly in a strong southern accent: "You know what is going on in my country...... The great local nobles have already emptied their purse strings for this money, and it is impossible for us to force them to come up with more money...... We don't have the right to do that! β
The ambassador of the Saint Sia Kingdom's voice was visibly gloating: "There is no doubt that this loss must be borne by the Delun Empire...... It's your fault. β
"Of course, we have a good traditional friendship with your country, and you need a ...... High loans? We can give a very good interest! β
Joe rolled his eyes.
The kingdom of St. Sia and the Delen Empire have a good traditional friendship?
Ah, more than forty years ago, the Delen Empire and the Ice Sea Kingdom joined forces, and the imperial army almost broke the royal capital of the Kingdom of St. Sia with the help of the United Kingdom of Daunis...... If that's all called traditional friendship...... The friendship between the two countries is really forged by blood!
"What will happen?" Joe looked at the big Caesar, who was tall and tall, and then looked at the little Caesar, and felt that the IQ of these two was definitely not as good as his own, so he looked at the polite and elegant Fawkes.
"Ha, ha, ha!" Fox laughed dryly three times.
"Okay, I see." Joe shrugged his shoulders: "So, who can tell me what the Abyss Battlefield is?" β
Big Caesar and Little Caesar looked at each other and raised their right hands at the same time: "I know ......"
The two brothers looked at each other, and then pointed at each other at the same time: "So, you ...... it."
"Shut up." Fox interrupted the exchange between the two brothers: "Joe, I have detailed information about the Abyss Battlefield there, you can take it back and read it carefully...... However, it is important to remember that this information should not be released to the civilian class, so as not to cause widespread panic and unrest. β
Joe blinked at Fawkes.
Fawkes shrugged his shoulders: "Well, ordinary little nobles, if you don't have to, you know. β
Joe nodded, he pondered, the former Rittal family should belong to the category of 'ordinary little nobles' in Fawkes's mouth, right?
The group all shut their mouths and continued to hide behind the pillars and listen to the movement in the main hall.
The shouting and roaring were getting louder and louder, and with Joe's 'legendary hearing', it was difficult to tell who was yelling at something in the hall.
It was a long, long time before the sun had sunk almost below the horizon in the west, and Salian was sweating profusely and his hair was scattered over his head, and his haggard and embarrassed face rushed over with a gloomy face.
"Your Highness!" Everyone, including Joe, stood upright at the same time.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh......" Salian squinted, looking at the group of henchmen in front of him one by one. His gaze swept over Fawkes, Big Caesar, Little Caesar and others, and then shook his head gently: "You guys, it's not suitable...... Not...... Joe, I'll give you a ...... A bit of a hassle, small task. β
Joe puffed up his chest, the crest of the saint on his chest gleaming in the twilight.
Salian stared deeply at the Saint Badge on Joe's chest and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, you are indeed the most suitable candidate...... Great Caesar, transfer a hundred-man team from the Knights of the Great Seadra, and from today onwards, the command of this team is handed over to Joe. β
After being silent for a while, Salian pointed at Little Caesar again: "Little Caesar, your Royal Second Knights, transfer a thousand people out, and also hand over the command to Joe." β
Blinking his eyes, Salian pointed at Fawkes, "Fawkes, the ten Hydra guards, also handed over command to Joe. Also, sign an order as quickly as possible, so that Joe can use the police of Hydrderabad, and no more than a full division of troops if necessary. β
Fawkes nodded without saying a word, turned around, and strode in the direction of Salian's office at Hydra Palace.
Qiao looked at Salian with a little trepidation: "Your Highness, what do you want me to do?" β
It was the hundred-man team of the Knights of Hydra, and the thousand-man team of the Royal Knights, and even deployed ten Hydra secret guards under his command, and even directly asked Joe to mobilize the police and garrison......
To be honest, Joe is a little weak at the moment!
"Go arrest Ferdinand...... Ferdinand von Hyderaberg...... That is, my father, the Imperial Crown Prince, Prince Hydrderabad, President of the Imperial House of Lords, Honorary Speaker of the Imperial Parliament, Honorary Justices of the Imperial Supreme Court......"
Salian vigorously touched the messy, wet hair on the top of his head, and casually reported a long list of titles: "Go, arrest him, arrest everyone around him, anyone who has a relationship with him, anyone who dares to interfere with your actions during the arrest process, arrest them all...... None of them can be pulled down. β
"In the meantime, keep him safe." Salian looked at Joe with deep eyes: "Although he has the ability to protect himself, but ...... Make sure he's safe. β
"Grandfather's people are already watching him, you just have to take someone over, follow the legal procedure, go through the arrest process, and then ...... Take him back to your palace of Apophis and put him under house arrest. β
Joe's face twitched violently, his eyes widened, and he stared straight at Salian: "Your Highness? House arrest for him? In my Apophis Palace? β
Salian exhaled heavily, he raised his right hand and patted Joe's shoulder gently: "Borrow your Apophis Palace...... In today's Hyderabad, your Apophis Palace is the ...... 'cleanest'! β
"Clean?" Joe continued to stare at Sallian.
"Clean!" Salian spread his hands, and he looked at Joe very seriously: "Look at him, you can't let him escape...... Look at him, don't let him have any communication with the outside world...... Watch him and don't let him be in any danger. Can you do it? β
Joe smacked his lips.
He didn't have much experience in officialdom, but he also felt the tremendous pressure that Salian, including the entire empire, was under at this moment.
He remembered the words that Mia and Mi Ke casually dropped when they fled by inexplicable means.
This great turmoil in the imperial capital, including the 'robbery' of the Royal Bank headquarters, was all caused by Ferdinand in collusion with them!
Well, Joe didn't have much political experience, but he also felt vaguely uneasy......
"All I can say is, I do my best, Your Highness." Joe remembered the looted wealth from the Royal Bank headquarters...... Damn, it is said that the gold bricks alone are worth nearly 100 billion gold marks.
What a terrible asset.
Not to mention, there are so many dignitaries and dignitaries who keep their money in the headquarters of the Royal Bank, how much do they lose?
It's a huge whirlpool, and the entire Delen Empire is caught up in it.
Joe also felt a suffocating pressure, swept in from all directions. Looking at the haggard on Salian's face, Joe also felt ...... You should do something about it.
The imperial family is not bad for him.
Sarian was very good to him.
Joe felt that he should do something.
But first, he's going to arrest Salian's father...... The Crown Prince of the Empire!
What a damn task.
