Chapter 670 The Turbulent Valoran
Noxian calendar, 930 AD.
Led by Archduke Timothy, the five major warlords of the South formed the Southern Noxian Imperial Alliance, and in the protest of the Supreme Command, the Southern Imperial Alliance disclosed the whole story of the demonic invasion of Brewsterburg, and declared that the [Undead] Demon Lord Lyster made a despicable deal with the demon, and exchanged the souls of the people of the empire for the help of the demon to make the Emerald Territory develop to this day,
At the same time, the Southern Empire Alliance called on the forces and countries of the whole continent to send joint envoys to jointly examine the evidence of Fidellett's collusion with the demons, and although no one responded to the whole process due to the large power of Jade, it successfully aroused the ambitions of other forces, including the Supreme Command of the Northern Empire.
There is no doubt that this is an excellent reason to unite the forces of the whole continent to confront or even destroy the Emerald Territory, after all, if the Emerald Collar really has the strength to fight against the enemy of the whole world, the Emerald Collar will never remain in obscurity for so long.
The countries with a common goal strengthened ties with each other, and in order to hide people's eyes, secret talks quietly went on in the shadows, and for a while, the top power that had been suppressed on everyone's heads for more than 900 years seemed to have unknowingly become everyone's enemy.
Demacia Xiongdu, the royal palace of the kingdom.
Jiawen II, who had already entered middle age, put down the urgent military situation in his hand, and thought of the humiliation of the jade tie to Demacia, and the emperor sighed.
"Finally, has it finally caused public outrage? Ha, I didn't expect to see such a day before I died, but, that is the Emerald Territory, a country that even the previous kings feared, can they really win by fighting with these ordinary people? ”
Under the throne, the eight noble ministers watched their noses and noses, and looked at the tips of their shoes unwaveringly, as if there were small red flowers on the tips of their shoes.
They didn't care what the Emperor thought, they only needed to veto the Emperor's decision when the Emperor made a 'wrong decision', after all, only the interests of the kingdom could be guaranteed to the interests of the family.
Unlike fifty years ago, Demacia is not Gavin II alone.
The complex color on his face flashed, and Jiawen II looked down at the eight noble ministers under his seat who were gradually encroaching on the power of the royal family, and his face returned to solemnity.
These ministers are more respectful than the other, but they are more inappropriate than the other, hating that he had just taken over the power of the kingdom at that time, and the envoy who was led by the Jade to ask for the body of the hand of Noxus swept away the majesty, in order to keep the throne, he could only choose to compromise.
In the final analysis, the fact that I can be in such a situation today has nothing to do with the jade collar.
"Ladies and gentlemen, if this emperor sends an envoy to join this 'censorship mission'......"
"Your Majesty! Never! The stakes are high in the review mission, and if the Emerald Leader settles the score, how many brave and loyal warriors in the kingdom will die in the unjust war?
This move is not only a waste of money and easy to burn yourself, but it is better to sit firmly on one side and let the imperial barbarians eat dogs, regardless of whether the jade leads the victory or defeat, the kingdom is the one who benefits. ”
"Yes, the reason why the kingdom is rich and strong is precisely because the ancestors followed the teachings of the ancestors, and achieved the justice of Demacia that never invaded other countries and started wars, Your Majesty, the teachings of the ancestors cannot be violated!"
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, it is better to take this opportunity to strengthen cooperation with the Emerald Collar, if you can bring the Emerald Collar over, the future kingdom will definitely be able to sit back and relax......"
"What! Do you want Your Majesty to submit to the villains of the Emerald Order!? Is Your Majesty such a weak man? ”
The jumbled suggestions poured in, and the eight ministers who had made up the numbers soon quarreled, and Gavin II rubbed his brow with some headaches.
I really want to send these incompetent guys to the guillotine, but unfortunately I can't.
The main reason is that today's kingdom is not monolithic, the royal family and the nobility are separated from each other, the ministers and the family are their masters, and the aristocratic power is like a criss-crossing spider web, which is intertwined and closely linked, and it affects the whole body.
Moreover, the kingdom army has a total of 150,000, and the Shield family only controls more than 1,000 Xiongdu Guards and Dreadnought Vanguard Regiments of 20,000, and the rest of the military power, including the control of the Demacian Illuminati, is in the hands of the great nobles.
The only people who stand on the platform for the Light Shield family are the Crown Guard family who control the Dreadnought Vanguard and the Chrisman family who are in control of the Demon Hunter Legion, and the Crown Guard family is jointly suppressed by the great nobles who are afraid of the Crown Guard, and at present, the Crown Guard family can only wait to fight the wooden people on the training ground of the Dreadnought Vanguard, and there is no way out.
The Demon Hunter Legion also led to 'stability and well-being' in the country because of the excessive search for mages, but it contributed to the great disarmament of the Demon Hunter Legion, and in a sense, it can be regarded as a self-severing arm.
There are too few chess pieces, and it is difficult to reclaim military power and regain royal power under the gaze of a group of old foxes staring at him.
Originally, the breaking point he expected was on the Demon Hunter Legion, as long as some of the Illuminati mages were allowed to leave their blood among the people, and then directed and staged a few terrorist attacks, within ten years, Demacia would become the world of the Demon Seeker Legion, and when the time came, with the help of the Chrisman family, they would inevitably be able to regain control of the royal power, but now it seems to have a better choice.
The Emerald Collar is very powerful, but after all, there are so many forces charging ahead...... What if?
Seeing that the ministers were still arguing, Gavin II was also a little irritable.
"Enough! What's the use of arguing around? Have you forgotten the humiliation that the Emerald Tie brought to us? Besides, what is Demacian justice? I tell you! Justice in Demacia is more than justice in Demacia!
The justice of Demacia lies in the fact that when the innocent are oppressed, there will be a group of warriors who are not afraid of sacrifice to stand up and show their swords! The justice of Demacia lies in the fact that in the face of evil and injustice, there will be a nation that will stand up and make a name for justice!
The justice of Demacia has never shrunk to a sideline, but like the great founder General Oren, with a firm faith, he bravely led those who were unwilling to be oppressed by the mages to build a new harbor.
If General Oron and King Gavin Darch were just cowards who stood by and watched from the sidelines, how could we have the Demacian Hero we have today? ”
Seeing that the emperor was suddenly angry, several aristocratic ministers couldn't help but restrain a little, they were the spokespersons of the real behind-the-scenes master who pushed the front desk to 'accompany the tiger and accompany the king', of course, they knew that if they went too far and were cut by the emperor, no one would make decisions for themselves.
After calming down a little, one of the ministers said respectfully.
"And what does Your Majesty mean?"
Gavin II sneered.
"The actions of the Censorship Mission will be open and transparent, Demacia is a country of faith in justice, we will not wage unjust wars, but we will not abandon our fellow human beings who are controlled by evil,
If the Emerald Leader really has nothing to do with the Devil, if the Emerald Collusion with the Demon to kill fellow human beings, Demacia will definitely stand on the side of justice!
I would like to send an envoy to join the review mission, ladies and gentlemen, who is in favor and who is against? ”
What is surprising is that the final result was that the final result was a smooth passage of the decision to send envoys with four votes from the minister and one vote from the emperor.
……
At the end of the summer of the same year, the Immortal Fortress.
At the recommendation of the Swain family, the Imperial Commander Bron-Darkwell and his staff Jennings went to the underground part of the fortress, and after passing through several magical mazes, Bronn met the ancient and mysterious Blood Lord in a hidden magical manor.
The Venerable Blood Ancestor's name is Vladimir, the owner of the Crimson Society, an immortal blood mage, and an existence that rivals the legendary Pale Witch.
At this moment, Vladimir is like a melancholy prince, controlling the blood in the cup to fly in the air, slowly soaking the white rose in his hand.
In a silent moment, the white rose turned into a blood rose, and unlike the white rose that was destined to die, the long stem of the blood rose grew thorns and long vines slowly wrapped around the blood ancestor's right arm, and the bright flowers and the blood ancestor's smooth forehead were pressed together, and they were actually rejuvenated in a few seconds.
Witnessing the magic of blood beyond the norm, even as the commander of the empire, Brown could not suppress the fear and desire brought by his body's instincts, and fell to his knees in obedience.
This is the power at the disposal of his father, Burnham, an immortal force that can avoid time and break the cycle of life and death.
And he is about to get this immortal power and establish his own great achievements.
"The Darkwell family, Brond Darkwell has seen the Blood Ancestor."
"Jennings has seen Lord Blood Ancestor."
As if he had just seen the two talking, Vladimir plucked the blooming blood rose, tore the petals one by one, and threw them into the wine glass.
With a sip of blood wine, the pale silver-haired man half-squinted his eyes, and his narrow eyes fixed on Brown's face, flashing a trace of doubt.
Patronized and drank rose wine, who is this?
Blood Ancestor struggled to recall the only impression he had of the man in front of him, but unfortunately, until Blanc broke out in a cold sweat at a loss, Vladimir couldn't remember who the person kneeling in front of him was, and could only vaguely remember that he was looking for someone from the Darkwell family.
If you can't think of it, forget it, that 'Darkwell' must be the guy in front of you.
The forgetful Blood Ancestor smiled quietly, his demeanor full of dignity and elegance.
He can forget everything, but he can't forget the calmness and grace of the nobility, which is something that has been engraved in his soul, if it weren't for the pride in his bones, he would have lost himself under the torture of the Dark Spawn and became a slave to power......
Getting back to the point, although I don't know who the two mortals in front of me are, it's right to casually praise first.
The cautious Vladimir finally chose to use the word 'Darkwell' to form a sentence.
Darkwell ...... An old and powerful surname. ”
Hearing this, Brown's heart was overjoyed, his family could make the blood ancestor so valued, and sure enough, only Darkwell was qualified to take charge of the imperial power.
"It is an honor for the Darkwell family to be appreciated by the Blood Ancestor."
Vladimir nodded, quietly took out a gorgeous little notebook, lazily leaned on the back of the chair and dragged his chin with the palm of his hand, calmly turning to the latest page.
Hurry up and take a look at the small book, well, it turns out that after he broke with the Pale Witch, he had a deal with Morde Caesar in the underworld, and this Darkwell is the most suitable tool......
didn't know that Vladimir was recalling the plan he had made before, and seeing that Vladimir didn't respond to his compliments and began to read alone, I don't know if I offended the blood ancestor Bran was a little confused,
】
Bronn didn't dare to ask, so he could only helplessly turn his head to look at Jennings beside him, but saw that the wise Jennings was also at a loss, looking like he couldn't tell the difference between southeast and northwest.
[It's over, I'm hated by the Blood Ancestor]
Thinking of this, Blanc almost didn't hold back, and before Blanc broke the defense, Vladimir finally closed the small notebook and remembered his arrangement.
"Brond Darkwell, the immortal deserves to bear a heavy price, and those who cannot overcome their desires will become slaves of power, and what you are pursuing is not the right path, even if you have to bear the responsibility of the undead, do you have to embark on this road of no return?
It's too late to turn back now. ”
The majestic voice of the Blood Ancestor made Brown's body tremble,
Coming, coming, the time and power he longed for were at hand.
No pain or burden is worth mentioning compared to the power that transcends life and death, and his father Burnham can resist the erosion of power and rule the empire for a hundred years, but he may not be unable to.
"Blood Ancestor, no matter what the heavy price I bear, I am willing to receive your gift and become your most loyal follower."
It was not surprising that Brown would go down this path of no return, Vladimir sighed melancholy.
Ignorant mortals always have their eyes on the transcendent, but it is easy to forget the deadly threats that come with the transcendent.
That's it, a chess piece is a chess piece after all, he has given the person in front of him a chance, but the imperial commander in front of him insists on becoming a slave of power,
Speaking of which, the entire empire is just a splash of color on his canvas that can be erased at will.
It doesn't matter, it's not as interesting as drinking rose wine.
"Come forward."
"Thank you, Lord Blood Ancestor, for your reward!"
Blanc fell to his knees, letting Vladimir lay his hand on his forehead, and Jennings watched the scene without blinking.
"Now, I'm giving you the Crimson Body, and you must replace the blood in your body on time to keep you sane, remember?"
"Remembered."
When the words fell, a piece of dark red blood slowly flowed out of Vladimir's palm, and the blood covered the top of Brown's head, and the dark red blood entered every hole, flowing into Brown's body from the five senses and seven orifices, extracting Brown's human blood and gradually transforming Brown's physique.
Just like the three big men who opened up their territory from the dry road at the same time, the indescribable pain made Brown want to kill himself with his own hands, but he had already lost control of his body, and at this moment he couldn't even move his eyelids, so the man could only endure the pain and wait for the 'gift' of the blood ancestor to end.
Witnessing how the Blood Ancestor's 'Scarlet Bounty' was carried out, Jennings directly dispelled the crazy thoughts, and he had a hunch that the Blood Ancestor's warning was by no means empty words.
