The first update!!There will be an update in the evening!!

====================================================================================

Noah's Continent, Shira's Empire, Tamar Palace.

"Stepping on the ......" A clear and powerful footstep sounded in the spacious palace corridor, mixed with the sound of metal colliding with each other as the joints of the armor collided with each other as they walked.

A tall, tall man wrapped in heavy armor strode through the heavily guarded palace corridors to the golden gates, took off his helmet from his head, and leaked a long gray shawl hair and a thin and grim face.

He was about to enter the door, but he saw a "bang" on both sides, the long halberds crossed, and the long sword blocked the road, blocking his way.

"Hand over your sword!" said a captain of the guard wearing a golden feather helmet, and after a salute, he said respectfully.

The man's eyes swept the guard captain coldly, but his hand firmly grasped the hilt of the long sword at his waist, refusing to let go: "When will I enter the hall and unload my long sword?

The captain of the guard was swept away by the man's sharp gaze, and said stubbornly: "Dear Lord Holman, how can I not know you? ”

After glaring at the captain of the guard sharply for a while, Holman snorted coldly, removed the sword from his waist, and handed it into the hand of the captain of the guard together with his helmet.

As soon as Holman raised his foot, he heard that the sword halberds that crossed in front of him to seal the way were not separated, and he turned his head angrily and glared at the captain of the guard.

The captain of the guard pointed to a golden dagger stuck in Holman's other waist and said, "And this." ”

This golden dagger is Holman's family heirloom, one of the world's top melee artifacts, called Sky Fury, and never leaves an inch of his side, even when he takes a bath and sleeps, he always wears it with him.

The so-called people do not leave the knife, the knife does not leave the person, the person is in the knife, and the knife is in the death, this is the truth.

Holman was furious: "Bastard, you dare to humiliate me?"

As he spoke, Holman was full of hair, like an angry tiger, especially his gray hair, hanging upside down like a waterfall, and the tips of his hair trembled violently, like sharp arrows, and the momentum was so terrifying that these guards couldn't help but pull out the long swords on their waists one by one, and the sword light and sword shadows on both sides were murderous!

Just as he was nervous, a voice came from the hall: "Tony, let him in, the whole world may betray me, Holman will not." He's my friend!"

When the captain of the guard heard this, he raised his hand, and the guards behind him, who were like facing a great enemy, suddenly withdrew their blades and made a way.

Holman glared at them, then straightened himself up, pushed open the heavy palace gates, and strode inside.

As soon as he entered, Holman saw that McDamir, the emperor of the Shira Empire, was kneeling in front of a statue with his back to him, his hands clasped into fists, praying for something.

When the Emperor heard Holman enter, he did not look back, and said in a low voice, "Ah, Holman old friend, you have come at a good time. ”

Holman stopped when he walked to a distance of about ten meters from the emperor and fell to one knee: "My majesty, what is it that makes you so nervous and anxious?

The emperor was not in a hurry to answer, but only whispered the last prayer, stood up, washed his hands in the golden chalice held by the maid, wiped it clean, and then said slowly: "Old friend, although we have just passed forty years old, we have known each other for almost forty years, since your grandparents, our two families have been close friends, I am very grateful to you and your family for your great support to our family for so many years. ”

The emperor took the soft hand towel handed by the maid on the side, wiped his hands clean, and then waved his hand to the attendants around him, signaling them to go down, and when there was no one around, he walked up to Holman and asked softly, "Are you willing to continue to support me unconditionally and unreservedly like your ancestors?"

Holman raised his head in surprise, looking at the emperor in front of him who he had assisted all his life, and he didn't understand his attitude today.

It stands to reason that Holman and his family have a very close relationship with the royal family, Holman 's father is married to McDamir's own sister, the two families are both monarchs and ministers, and each other's in-laws, to Holman and McDamir's generation, the two families can be said to be flesh and blood, and it is impossible to separate.

Even if the emperor asked Holman to die, Holman had no reason to refuse.

Holman was amazed and said, "My Majesty, I, Ridu Holman can give my life and soul to you, please retract your doubts, otherwise, it will be an insult to our family and your family's long-standing friendship of more than two hundred years." ”

The emperor shook his head: "Holman, don't be in a hurry to say these words, what I want you to do is much more difficult than going to die!"

Holman did not change his face, but there was a hint of disapproval in his eyes.

The emperor knew this, and did not point through it, but continued: "You should already know that our empire's proudest fleet has suffered an unprecedented heavy blow at sea. ”

Holman had a gloomy face: "Yes, I have heard about it, my majesty. ”

The Emperor sighed: "I really can't understand why I have suffered such a miserable defeat when I have sent all the forces I can send?"

Holman was silent, if he had changed to someone else and taken everything, he would still have lost not a single pair of pants, but he was afraid that he would have collapsed a long time ago, that is, the wise and martial Emperor of the Xila Empire in front of him was still as usual, except for a little depression in his expression, he didn't see the appearance of being hit by such a fiasco.

The emperor continued: "Now everyone in the empire thinks that it is time to withdraw our troops, we have already lost, and if we lose, we will have the appearance of losing!"

The emperor smiled coldly: "My prince and brother are now jumping up and down to contact various princes and nobles, ready to use this matter to attack me, trying to drive me down from this throne......"

Holman was furious, his eyes widened, and his eyes were about to split: "He dares! I will smash his bones!!"

The emperor looked at Holman with a look of appreciation: "I know, you were very dissatisfied with me not sending you to the battlefield to make meritorious deeds, right?"

Holman lowered his head: "Don't dare, my majesty, you have no last resort, Holman admires it very much!"

The emperor smiled: "You are the first fierce general of our Shila Empire, I didn't send you out at the beginning, I have a measure, I can't have people around me who can suppress the scene, as long as you are here, my prince and brother want to make trouble, you have to weigh it." I will always be on guard against defeat until victory is in hand, this is what my father held my hand and carefully told me before he died. ”

The emperor said slowly, and sighed leisurely: "Now, this sentence has once again verified its correctness. You can't use all your strength to beat someone, Holman!"

Holman didn't speak, just listened intently, guessing in his heart about His Majesty's difficult mission.

What was it that made the emperor, known for his resourcefulness and prudence, so difficult to talk about?

The Emperor said, "Now, almost everyone thinks that we will withdraw our troops, so I will show them!"

The emperor sneered: "Two days ago, I have already issued a warrant for General Litt to postpone the attack and prepare to retreat. ”

Holman was shocked, took a step forward, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, it's not time to retreat, our army is still strong, they still maintain high combat effectiveness and morale, and the supplies are still sufficient, we can still fight!"

The emperor looked at Holman with a smile: "You can see this as a martial artist, can't I see it?"

Holman blushed: "I was reckless, Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude." ”

The emperor said: "Since everyone thinks that we are going to withdraw our troops, then I will show them a play, and in this warrant, I also have a secret order to let General Litt cultivate in place and wait for ten days, and after ten days, launch a fierce attack on the furnace of the gods for the last time!"

Holman was overjoyed: "Your Majesty, your eloquence and courage are really, really ......."

Holman simply admired the man in front of him who grew up with him to the extreme, and when the mountains and rivers in front of him were exhausted, what this emperor wanted was not to withdraw his troops and return to China as soon as possible and deal with the prince's rebellion, but to attack and attack, and then attack!

What a boldness!

Seeing that Holman's face was full of red light, and his speech was a little incomplete, he smiled faintly and said, "Don't be in a hurry to be happy, Holman , if we want to win the final victory, we can't rely on strong attacks." Brute force can never be a big deal, you have to remember that. ”

Holman bowed respectfully: "Yes, my majesty. ”

The Emperor said: "In order to make my enemies think that I do have the intention of withdrawing my troops, I am ready to send an emissary to the Falco Empire to sue for peace with the Falco Empire in my name!"

Holman tightened his heart, this is a matter of drilling his crotch, whoever goes will be discredited, he raised his head: "Who are you going to send?"

The emperor's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, staring at Holman deadly, and said word by word: "What do you say, my old friend?"

Holman's face turned pale, his burly body shook a little, and the guess in his heart was confirmed, his face changed back and forth once, and after a while, he gritted his teeth violently, and bowed down like a jade pillar like a golden mountain: "Dare not serve to die, my majesty!"

The emperor's gaze suddenly became extremely soft, as if the fierce gaze that was about to kill just now did not shoot out of his eyes at all: "Holman, I know that you have been wronged by letting you go to sue for peace, but this matter must not be handled by you." ”

Holman fell to his knees and was silent.

The emperor gently pressed his hand on Holman's shoulder and said, "In the current Falco Empire, Princess Angel and Empress Camilla have formed a confrontation situation. Angel came with the power of the Battle of Cameroca, and Queen Camilla was forced by the situation to make concessions to Angel in all aspects, and the situation in Otrencia will be very, very delicate. ”

"At this time, as long as I take the initiative to sue for peace, Queen Camilla will definitely agree immediately, and impatiently withdraw the army under the fire of the gods, and replenish the strength around her as quickly as possible. "Although McDamir is thousands of miles away from Otrentia, he sees the situation in Otrentia as if he has a pair of clairvoyance.

"Moreover, when I take the initiative to sue for peace, Princess Angel will definitely oppose it, and the contradiction between the princess and the queen will intensify......" The emperor said slowly, the corners of his mouth outlined a sneer, "At this time, as long as I propose marriage...... Hey, will Queen Camilla agree?"

Holman was shocked in his heart, he stared at the resourceful emperor in front of him with wide eyes, and he couldn't help but say loudly: "Your Majesty is wise, this is a good plan to kill three birds with one stone! We can not only paralyze the Falco Empire, but also paralyze His Royal Highness the Prince, and we can also provoke the contradiction between Angel and Queen Camilla! Queen Camilla will definitely agree, as Angel's mother, she has the right to arrange and distribute the marriage of the princess! As long as she is married, Queen Camilla can sit back and relax! Even if Angel doesn't agree, there is nothing she can do unless she rebels immediately!"

The emperor smiled coldly: "This woman, I have been studying it for a long time, she will definitely not agree, so, when the time comes, as long as the queen Camilla agrees, Angel will be in chaos! At that time, the imperial capital of Otrencia will definitely be in a mess! Hmph, at that time, General Litt will take this opportunity to storm the furnace of the gods, and when the time comes, the Falco Empire can be attacked with one blow!!"
