"Margaret, this **!!" Kirk slammed his fist on the desk in front of him, and the pen holder on the table shook and jumped, and the quill pen swayed like a leaf trembling in the autumn wind.

Kirk's face was extremely gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "This insatiable woman dares to attack the Forbidden Tower!"

The generals and ministers in the spacious study all knew very well what the Forbidden Tower meant to the emperor of the Pound Empire, and Kirk's anger made them dare not speak for a while, and they all frowned.

The news of the Forbidden Tower's sneak attack continued to spread to Kirk's study like an assembly line, but the news of the imperial capital Garcia was delayed, which made Kirk like an ant on a hot pot, and his heart was extremely anxious.

"I've given her the Empire's right to smelt minerals and manufacture weapons, isn't she satisfied?" Kirk clenched his fists, the green tendons on the back of his hand twisting violently.

Kirk's gaffe in anger made the generals and ministers in the study gasp.

As we all know, the Kelsman family has the right to issue currency, but the various non-ferrous metal mines under this family territory are not developed, and most of the primary color precious metals have to be purchased from the empire, and then gold coins are crafted, and then these valuable currencies can be issued to the world.

This is equivalent to the last shackle of the Pound Empire to economically restrain the Kelsman family, once this shackle is lost, then this means that from now on, this huge empire will completely look at the eyes of the Kelsman family, and the Kelsman family will have complete economic constraints, he can not only obtain the right to collect precious metals in various places, but also can collect these metals and then transport them to their own territory to be made into gold coins and weapons!

"My Majesty, are you insane? For the sake of the god Raphael, how can you accede to such a mad and greedy request?" cried an elderly cardinal.

Although these ministers guessed that Kirk must have paid a heavy price when he made a deal with Margaret, they did not guess that Kirk basically handed over his wallet and weapons to the other party!

Without money and weapons, what will they be able to compete with the Kelsman family in the future?

The cardinal's shout immediately resonated with the other generals and ministers, who shouted one after another.

Kirk glared at them viciously, and roared loudly: "Shut up! Do you think I want to send my neck to the knife edge of that **? Otherwise, how can we stand in this palace now? Although I gave this ** the right to smelt minerals and the right to manufacture weapons, as long as I can sit on this throne, I can still take it back!"

Kirk's roar made the people in the room silent, and they lowered their heads and secretly slandered themselves: But now, people want not only your wallet and weapons, but also your life!

Margaret chose to attack the Forbidden Tower at this time, this move can not be described as ruthless and vicious, she calculated that the Forbidden Tower is now the weakest time to defend, and even if the attack is blocked, Kirk does not dare to send more troops to the rescue, because he has to use a limited force to deal with his dear brother!

The prince's biggest enemy at the moment is Fernandez, not her Margaret! Kirk doesn't dare to turn against her because she attacked the Forbidden Tower!

Therefore, this beautiful and touching woman with a heart like a femme fatale accepted the gift that Kirk gave him with a smile with one hand when she was most painful and sad, and then stabbed him with the other hand without hesitation!

The room was extremely quiet, except for the faint sound of shouts of killing coming from a distance.

Princess Angel stood quietly at her desk, looking at the map of Garcia that was densely marked in front of her, and she suddenly said, "Don't go to the Forbidden Tower......

"How can you ignore the Forbidden Tower!!" the cardinal, who had shouted earlier, raised his head and roared angrily, and he poured all his anger on the unstable princess, "Do you know what that place is?"

Angel raised his eyes and glanced at him calmly: "That's where this empire is used to store powerful artifacts......"

"If you know, why do you say such things?!" said the cardinal, furious.

Angel smiled contemptuously: "All the troops we have on hand that can be sent to the Forbidden Tower have already been sent, so that now our headquarters are empty and defenseless, can you now conjure up an army out of thin air to mobilize a large army to the Forbidden Tower to rescue? Or do you simply go into battle yourself?"

"You!" the cardinal was so angry that he could not speak.

Angel ignored him, and she asked with a sinking face, "Can anyone tell me that the envoys we sent out to contact the troops stationed in various places are still alive, and if they are still alive, where are they now? Why has there been no news so far?"

An elderly general on the side replied in a deep voice: "If it goes well, these envoys should have arrived at their destination by now, and the nearest one should have already returned with news!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw an officer wearing full body armor running in quickly, and the armor of his whole body crashed loudly, revealing a thick murderous aura.

The officer fell to one knee, clenched his right hand into a fist, struck it heavily on his chest, and gave a military salute: "My lord, according to the scouts, there is a cavalry force of about five thousand men approaching the southern part of the imperial capital at high speed!"

"What?!" Shocked by the news, Kirk rushed to the map, hunched over and his face almost pressed to the map.

He used his fingers along several avenues at the south gate of the empire, then extended all the way to gesticulate, and finally slammed his fist hard: "Bastard, Hannibal of Kunisque Port has finally taken refuge in this bastard of Fernandez!!"

Kirk looked up and asked, "How long will it be before they reach the imperial capital?"

The officer exclaimed, "Probably less than three hours!"

"Time is running out...... Kirk said through gritted teeth.

Angel raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Obviously, now we can completely judge that the direction of Fernandez's attack is the Saya Avenue at the south gate!

"It......'s hard," General Charles took her words and shook his head, "It's hard! If I'm not mistaken, the seven thousand jailers and five thousand guards there have all fallen to Fernandez." Moreover, the purpose of the city defense army responsible for guarding the city walls is now unknown, and it is not clear who they will turn to. ”

Kirk slammed his fist towards the location of Saya Street on the map, and with a bang, he said fiercely: "Put all our troops into it, and we must take Saya Street in the fastest time!"

"We still have less than 20,000 elite soldiers, and if we all devote ourselves to the direction of Sayya, we should have no problem taking down the Jailers and Guards......" Charles muttered for a moment, "However, if all our troops are invested, what if someone suddenly attacks the palace?"

This sentence made Kirk hesitate, and his face was cloudy.

The room was quiet, and everyone didn't dare to take a breath, they all knew that the victory or defeat was here, should they all invest their forces, quickly take Saya Avenue with lightning speed, and expose their most vulnerable and important points to the enemy?

The burning and dancing candles on the exquisite silver candlesticks on the desk were writhing in a strange posture, and the sound of snapping sparks was extremely harsh in the silent study, like rolling thunder rolling in the sky.

Kirk thought for a while, and then he suddenly turned his head, looked at Angel, and asked, "What is your idea?"

Unconsciously, Kirk had already highly identified with Angel's mind, but his behavior made the generals and ministers around him frown.

Angel seemed to be unable to see the hostile eyes around her, she thought for a while, and said slowly: "In this world, in any game of betting, if you want to win the most, you must place the biggest bet, and the biggest risk must be bet!"

Although her words did not answer Kirk directly, there was a strong tendency in her words.

Coincidentally, as soon as she finished speaking, another heavily armed officer burst in, fell on one knee, and said loudly: "My Majesty, the chief of the city defense guard on Saya Street declares allegiance to us!"

"What?" asked the people in the room in unison in ecstasy.

This news is really like "just dozing off, the pillow fell from the sky"!

Kirk's eyes widened with excitement, and the breath in his nose became thick.

But before he could ask any further questions, another piece of news came.

"Your Majesty, there was a fierce battle in the Forbidden Tower, and Master Mirandel led the personal guards to kill all the intruders, keeping the artifacts from the first to the fourth layer, and the sixth layer was destroyed in the fierce battle. The Seagod Trident and the Miracle Arrow sealed in the Forbidden Tower were taken away by the pirate Tang Jie......"

Kirk felt that the news made him cry and laugh, and he didn't know whether he should be ecstatic because the Kelsmans' plot failed, or angry that the pirate Tang Jie had once again brought him a "surprise".

Angel suddenly heard Tang Jie's news, her eyes suddenly released a burst of bright light, she opened her mouth, and was about to ask Tang Jie's whereabouts and news, but her eyes swept away, but she saw Kirk's cold eyes staring at her tightly.

Angel swallowed back the words that had rushed into her throat.

"This bastard......" Kirk took a deep breath, a smile on his face, and no one knew whether he was angry or happy, "how did he get there?

Of course, General Charles knew how powerful Tang Jie's skills were, and he also knew that Prince Kirk and this pirate were a little at odds, so he whispered, "Your Majesty, do you need me to strengthen the defense here?"

Kirk glanced lukewarmly at Angel: "Then you have to ask our esteemed princess Her Royal Highness!"

Angel took a deep breath, and his eyes became cold and unkind again: "No, if he comes, I will let him leave!"

Kirkpi smiled and said, "I hope so, my Royal Highness!"

Angel's body trembled slightly, and her eyes looked at the dark and oppressive sky outside the study, with a complicated expression.

......

At the same time, in the Countess House of the Kelsmann family.

"What?" Margaret suddenly stood up from the side of her bed, she walked to the guard who came to report the news with a blue face, and looked at him coldly, "You said that Lord Purin died in battle?

The guard trembled at the countess's imposingness, and he said in a trembling voice, "Yes, my lord. No one expected that when Lord Pullin was attacking, Lord Mirandel suddenly arrived with His Majesty the Emperor's personal guard. What he didn't expect was that the pirate Tang Jie would suddenly appear in the Forbidden Tower, and he killed Lord Purin, taking away the Seagod Trident and the Miracle Arrow......"

"Don't say it!" Margaret has always been known for her deep, calm and wise city, and she couldn't help but be furious when she heard the news, pointing to the outside of the room, "Get out, get out of here!"

The guard stood up and fled the door.

Margaret's towering chest rose and fell violently in anger, and she gritted her teeth and read a person's name: "Tang Jie...... Tang Jie ......"

"Why do you bastard always want to spoil my good deeds!" Margaret's eyes narrowed into a line, like a poisonous snake that chooses to devour people, and she suddenly shouted loudly, "Karl, go and bring me this bastard's head!!"

She finished shouting, but she didn't hear a familiar voice respond to her, and she shouted again, "Carl, Carl?"

She turned her head, but saw that the room was empty, and there was no one, and she remembered that Karl had been sent by her to fight the sword saint Anthony, not in front of her.

"Humph......" Marguerite snorted coldly, and she cried out, "Diderot!"

"My lord, are you calling me?" suddenly a dark figure appeared behind the countess, his figure looming, as if shrouded in a black mist, and it was impossible to see clearly.

Margaret didn't look back, and said coldly: "I remember I seem to have said, don't stand behind me!"

Diderot smiled lightly: "My lord, I seem to have said that it is my nature to appear behind people......"

Margaret snorted coldly, she didn't want to worry about this with this guy anymore: "Pullin is dead, do you want to know how he died?"

Diderot's voice sounded neutral, he smiled faintly, and said: "My lord, this weak man who relies on artifacts all day long should not be in front of me, and I think it is a shame to be mentioned with this name!"

A smile tugged at the corner of Margaret's mouth, and her eyes squinted behind her: "Don't say these useless words, bring me the head of the guy who killed Purin! If you can't bring back his head, don't come back!"

Diderot smiled, his figure twisting violently and disappearing into the room, leaving only a neutral and gentle laugh echoing through the room.

Margaret's eyes looked in the direction of the Forbidden Tower, and a grim look appeared on her beautiful face: "Tang Jie...... Why can't you just go against me?"
