A few days later, the palace held a second meeting.

This time, Xia's proposal is about lord arrangement, a total of twelve lords were killed in the Dark Moon Raid, except for four who are hereditary and have confirmed their heirs, the remaining eight territories are ownerless and need to be arranged immediately.

Thea proposes to merge the two small territories near Chiyu and White Feather into two separate realms as a reward, with a medium-sized territory for Royce, who has been lurking by Joseph's side for many years and making great contributions to Darkmoon. The remaining two medium-sized territories and four small territories were discussed by the patriarchal family and the royal family to determine the choice of the lord.

As expected, Angelette and other elder families expressed their opposition to this proposal, the territory of the four major territories was already large, Shili was too inflated, and for the long-term interests of the empire, it was necessary to control it as much as possible, rather than let it go further. Consideration may be given to rewarding goods or treasures, but the territory must not be loosened.

This opinion is quite sufficient, and it is indeed from the perspective of the great interests of the empire, but the "four major territories" proposed by Angelet include Dark Moon and Blue Melt, and in fact, Secretly stuck the rewards that Xia proposed last time about these two territories, and with the money from the treasury left by Obsidian, if the so-called material rewards are to be cashed, it is likely that Xia herself will have to stick to the old book.

Angelette was quite sophisticated, holding high the banner of putting the overall situation first, making full use of the rules, and quietly weakening the emperor's prerogatives. Xia is now the empress of the empire, and she must pay attention to the overall interests of the empire, if she insists on going her own way, then some of the elder families and royal family members who were originally watching will re-evaluate her in their hearts, and there will be more opponents, and her prestige will be further reduced.

Xia's new empress is at a time when her foundation is not stable, and even with the support of the Toro family, she is still weak, and there are not many options in this situation. Ultimately. The rewards for the two major territories were changed to material rewards, and the lords of the seven territories were divided between the royal family and the senator family. Royce became one of the candidates for the smallest realm under the siege of Thea, or as a "concession" to the empress Bixia by the senatorial family.

Many people could see that there was unhappiness in Sia's eyes, and more helplessness.

After the meeting, the elder Cowan of the Toro family stayed alone and reported to Chia some of the events of the last meeting of the senators.

"Although the Sword of the Fallen Angel has made Bixia's ascension to the throne supported by everyone, many members of the royal family and the elder family have expressed doubts about Bixia's ability. Many of them are still in the observation stage. Master Windsaka's entry into the Master Craftsman League is a good move in the long run. It's just that Bixia wants to open up the existing situation through Princess Fang, but I'm afraid that there will be great difficulties, the business pattern of the imperial capital is relatively fixed, and those families will unite to resist Princess Fang in order to prevent their interests from being divided, and they will only be afraid of ...... at that time."

Xia shook her head: "I know what you say. What I can tell you is that Master Wind Saka and Princess Place have another role, and it doesn't matter if those branches are suppressed, squeezed out, or even closed. At the next meeting, I will again raise the question of the appointment of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Minister of War, and the Prime Minister, and it is certain that my proposal to give up a position to the Senate will be vetoed by strong opposition, and the reaction of the Toro family will be more violent, and my failure will be more real. ”

Old Cowan was stunned. quickly reacted: "Bixia is deliberately showing weakness, but if you do this, Bixia has to carefully weigh the gains and losses, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that Bixia's prestige will ......."

"The Toro family is the first to throw themselves into me, and in the days to come, your experience and the Liliang of the Toro family will be one of my trusted arms, and I hope to listen to your advice. A gleam flashed in Thea's eyes, "But in the current environment, there are some key things that I can't reveal for the time being." All you have to do is do it. Do you understand?", old Cowan looked at Thea's determined eyes, and felt that his heart was much more steady. A deep bow: "Understood." ”

As expected, in the next two meetings, Xia suffered another setback, and the strength of her decision-making began to become a little tactful, and the interests of the patriarchal family were taken into account in many places, which was a good signal for Angelette and others. After all, Xia was the empress, and the original intention of the Angelet family was not to oust Xia from power, but to maintain the power and influence of the senator family, so they also showed appropriate deference and concessions accordingly, and Royce's appointment was approved to become the master of that small territory.

The territory that Royce got was called Green Shade, which was relatively small, treacherous, and poor, and was located north of Chiyou, and in addition to Chiyou, it was bordered by several small and medium-sized territories. To put it nicely, it is an important buffer zone for each territory, and if it is not good, the development space is limited. However, this did not affect Royce's joy and gratitude in the slightest, and the glory of the Kunda family shone back at this moment, not just the restoration of a surname. Royce knew very well what the real reason for his success was and he was glad that he had made the decision to surrender at Lake Rampo, the best choice he had ever made in his life.

In Chen Rui's initial stage, whether it was Royce or Alaux, they were important pawns against Joseph, but as Chen Rui's strength grew and Darkmoon's talents increased, he and Alaux played less and less of a role. However, after Xia ascended the throne, Chen Rui did not forget him, a servant who no longer had much value, and the Kunda family was shining in him. Royce secretly decided to make some achievements and repay his master's kindness.

With the permission of his mother, Athena, Royce returned to Darkmoon from the Red Shadows, and then left Darkmoon with his wife Vasasa and his best friend Araux and some of his henchmen for the Greenshade Territory.

In the imperial capital, in addition to the original Youyue Pavilion in the southern suburbs, which is still being renovated and rectified, four new branches of Princess Fang have been opened in the city, but many shops around it immediately began to sell goods similar to Princess Fang, the price is lower, and various means are used to grab customers, and for a time Princess Fang's situation is extremely difficult, and she can't make ends meet.

When Darkmoon Princess Fang first opened, there was a boom in novelty goods, and then it quickly cooled down under the control of the rest of the merchants. Today's princess has become the empress, and the princess square also represents the empress bixia to a certain extent, but there are circles and rules for doing business, and the rules of this circle are also respected by the strong. If you lose your competitiveness and just rely on the power of the empress to force your foothold, even if you can get temporary benefits, it will not last long, and Xia will lose more people's hearts. Pay for one's whistle.

General George's army withdrew from the imperial capital and returned to the Vallock fortress to garrison, and Sicari also withdrew part of his army, which expressed something that made Angelet and the others feel more confident that the situation was under control.

During the period when Xia Ya was playing with the patriarch family, Chen Rui did not stay in the imperial capital, but just found a janissary with a similar figure to wear a mask and cloak to replace him and appear by Xia Ya's side from time to time, which is the benefit of the mask man. Anyway, everyone doesn't know the true face of "Agureh".

The place where Chen Rui went was Bailing's territory, and there were many good things here, which he didn't have time to take away last time, but this time he was finally able to free his hands. The Medusa tribe has been on standby in White Feather City, and the lantern spirit who accompanied him to solve the "Sikari" has returned to the underground ruins of the Loeb mining area.

Chen Rui rode a two-legged flying dragon and flew straight to the Loeb mining area. Last time, at his behest, Sikari ordered a moratorium on mining in the Loeb mine under the pretext of the scourge of demonic beasts, and closed off the area around the mine to make it easier for the lanterns to act. Chen Rui was not hindered along the way, and went straight to the underground ruins of the Lebu mining area. ..., the remnants of this ancient alchemy civilization are actually a moving mechanical castle, unlike before he left, many of the damaged parts of the castle have been repaired to a certain extent, and there are crystal lights shining everywhere, like countless brilliant gems.

"Master!" Jinnie and Jinsha led the lantern spirits to salute Chen Rui in unison. Jinni once gave her life as the key to open the ruins, and when Chen Rui left, he left behind a large number of spiritual fruits, which were transformed into top-level energy essences, and Jinni and the others were also resurrected. Not only that, there are more than 2,000 resurrected lamp spirits, plus Jinni and Jin Sha, there are seventy-two demon emperor-level golden-eyed lamp spirits, eight hundred and thirty demon king-level silver-eyed lamp spirits, and 1,300 high-level demon-level black-eyed lamp spirits.

The Demon Emperor-level Lamp Spirits don't have the power of the realm. However, it has a ranged energy attack and a special force field in a similar area. This force field can also be used in combination, and the more people there are, the more powerful it is. Chen Rui had seen it in a fantasy world.

Due to the extreme lack of energy, when Jinni and the others competed with Medusa for the snake blood fruit, they could only use hand-to-hand combat and magic talents, and could not use these energy-consuming special attacks, but now with the top-level energy essence provided by Chen Rui, it seems that from a poor man with insufficient food and clothing to a rich man with thousands of dollars in one fell swoop, he can naturally exert the strongest power.

With so many light spirits, it is a very powerful liliang, more than seventy demon emperor-level light spirits, at the right time, it is enough to kill ordinary demon emperor powerhouses, not to mention that there are terrifying war machines such as crystal beasts, constructed war puppets and crystal giant beasts in the ruins.

There are also a large number of crystal beasts, constructing war puppets and crystal behemoths in the ruins, but the damage is more serious, crystal beasts and crystal behemoths are basically unusable, and there are a few complete constructing war puppets, which can already be used normally after replenishing energy, but the attributes of the lamp spirit itself conflict with the constructing war puppets and cannot be used as a driver.

Chen Rui frowned for a moment, and asked Jinnie beside him, "Are you able to repair these crystal beasts or war puppets?"

Ginny shook her head: "The lamp spirit doesn't have this ability, even if his heart lamp is broken and he is dying frequently, he can't do it if he wants to downgrade and repair it." ”

Chen Rui showed a look of regret, it seems that he can only hand it over to Tetnes for research, or he will need a large number of senior goblin warriors as assistants.

"Master, Weishenme doesn't make spirit squires, with them, the crystal behemoth may be a little more troublesome, but the crystal beast and the constructed war puppet shouldn't be a problem. ”

Ginny's subsequent words made Chen Rui's eyes glow with hope, the spirit attendant?

"The master is the inheritor of civilization, and he doesn't know the spirit squire?" Ginny looked curious.

Due to the relationship of devouring, Chen Rui's memory was very fragmented, and he really hadn't heard of it, so he turned his mind and replied: "You should have heard Jin Sha say that after I accepted the inheritance, I fought a big battle with the strong enemy in the underground, although I finally defeated him, but the inheritance memory was also affected because of this, some of it was vague, and many things could not be remembered, you now tell me about the spirit attendant." ”

Ginny didn't suspect anything, and replied respectfully: "In the alchemy civilization, the crystal giant beast is the great guardian, defending the entire fortress; The more powerful the war puppet is, the more powerful the crystal beast is equivalent to the guard, protecting the safety of the master, we lamp spirits are magicians on the battlefield, and in life are the maids who give everything to the master, as for the spirit squire, they are the lowest servants, they have no combat power, they can't leave the limited range of the castle, but they have special abilities for repair and manufacturing. If you can create a large number of spirit squires, plus the top-level energy essence provided by the master, not only crystal beasts. The entire castle was able to resume its operation. ”...,

Chen Rui was overjoyed in his heart, and then showed a puzzled look: "Then how do you make a spirit attendant?"

"Now there are a large number of top-level energy essences, which are enough to activate the city's central life crystals and control the entire domain castle, and then only need to provide energy to create a large number of spirit squires. ”

Chen Rui noticed Ginny's words: "Domain Castle?"

"The whole moving castle is a realm of realms. The authority I have can only know this knowledge, and the rest depends on the inheritance and memory of the master. ”

Realm Realm? Chen Rui is not the first time he has heard this word, he has heard it a few times in Satan's mouth, it should be a realm mystery beyond the realm of the Demon Emperor, and it is likely to be the prototype of the kingdom of God.

According to Ginny, this mobile castle turned out to be a realm country? Chen Rui thought of Satan's Mount Sekorid, and he faintly understood something in his heart. It's just that the so-called "inheritance memory" is just a pretense for giving up, and the lantern spirits don't seem to know this. And the demigod-level souls that failed to take away were finally devoured by Chen Rui, and now there are still most of Liliang in the Huaxing that have not yet been digested. Counting it, Chen Rui, the inheritor, is not worthy of his name, and he can even be said to be the enemy of the entire castle, I don't know if he can really control the entire castle, maybe there is still danger.

Spirit Squires, Crystal Beasts, Constructed Puppets, Crystal Behemoths...... And this huge and powerful realm country, no matter what, you have to give it a try.

"Ginny, take me to the Nexus Life Crystal now. ”

"Yes. Master. ”

Ginny led Chen Rui all the way. walked in front of a large palace, which was very similar to the main city palace that Chen Rui had seen in the illusion. Step into the palace. Through the spiral staircase, Ginny stopped in front of a huge room in the basement: "Master, I can only send here until you activate the central life crystal." Inside is the control center of the main city. ”

"You go down first. Chen Rui nodded, and Jinny bowed and retreated.

There was no door in this huge room, but a faint glow came out of it, which seemed mysterious, Chen Rui took a deep breath and walked in.

As soon as he approached the entrance of the room, he felt a powerful spiritual fluctuation coming, which seemed to have a terrifying aggressiveness, once there was any abnormality, it could wipe out the soul of the whole person, Chen Rui hesitated for a moment, and continued to walk forward.

That mental fluctuation became more and more terrifying, and every step forward would increase by one point, even Chen Rui's current S+ spiritual power level felt trembling in his heart, as if he was walking towards the abyss of death step by step.

Chen Rui's consciousness began to be confused under that oppression, and his five senses gradually lost their effect, but his body still walked forward with almost instinctive movements with the support of his will.

I can't see or hear the danger ahead, but I just keep going.

In this process of advancement, Chen Rui felt that thousands of thoughts were enveloping him, seeping straight into the soul, and the super system continued to transform it into aura, but the speed and intensity of penetration were extremely powerful, and the speed of transformation could not keep up with the speed of infiltration, if it continued like this, I was afraid that the entire soul would be in danger of collapsing.

Chen Rui felt deceived and was about to try to escape, at this time, the soul power stored in the "Transformation Star" began to fluctuate, it stands to reason that the liliang in the Transformation Star will not automatically change unless it is absorbed by Chen Rui himself or passed on to Huanhaode through double cultivation, and now this situation should be pulled by external ideas.

The power of the soul in the transformed star fluctuated more and more violently, resonating with the foreign thoughts. Chen Rui's heart moved, and his spiritual power penetrated into these soul powers, if it was the time of "inheritance", it would definitely not be possible, but now these soul powers are already in his pocket, equivalent to food in the refrigerator, which can be opened and enjoyed at any time, and it is not a problem.

The power of the demigod soul wrapped in Chen Rui's spiritual power finally couldn't be suppressed, and it continued to surge out under the attraction of powerful ideas from the outside world, although the soul power stored in the transformation star was huge, but this surging speed still made Chen Rui secretly frightened. Fortunately, the attraction quickly weakened, and the soul power that had passed away miraculously returned to the body, and there was something more, which seemed to be some kind of spiritual imprint, blended with his own spiritual power.

Without waiting for Chen Rui to react, the whole room was bright and bright, and it became a different look.

The whole huge room looks boundless, it seems to be an independent space, the material of the floor is unknown metal, there are strange facilities everywhere, and in the center is a huge water crystal, suspended in the ceiling and the two golden round platforms on the ground, as if connecting the heaven and the earth, and all kinds of strange symbols flashing around.

The crystal emitted a soft purple light, and a soft female voice rang out: "The soul power is one hundred percent matched, the spirit imprint has been added, welcome to come, my master." ”

Why is it so similar to an intelligent computer system? Chen Rui was stunned for a moment, and thought that he had crossed over again and came to a sci-fi shijie.
