The capital of the Gwana Empire, the Royal Palace, the Hall of the Republic.

From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the present day, it is the highest hall of imperial deliberations. It's just that from the equal pattern of the round table, it has been transformed into a stepped style, and the upper and lower are separated. The Republic of the Hundred Nationalities has also evolved into the Hundred Ethnic Parliament, which is purely for consultation purposes and has no substantive power. The seat of the council has also been changed elsewhere, but the Republican Hall is still the highest seat of power in the Gwana Empire.

Today, the ministers and emperors gathered looked coldly at the people kneeling below.

The knights of the family's guards are not eligible to enter the palace, but the emperor's guards are. Twenty trusted knights of the Praetorian Guard, with piercing glances, bowed their heads and said nothing.

And the two people kneeling at the front, one is the failed imperial envoy, Agha. The other is one of the three deputy captains of the Emperor's Guard, who is responsible for guarding the palace's secret treasures. In front of him was the treasure of the country, the fragment of Emperor Tyberneve. Although the wound on his face is healed, the sense of humiliation in his heart will not disappear.

Not only was the demon prince broken into the treasure house, but he was also caught by a strong man to help carry things on the road. Even if you want to escape at night, you will be caught, and you will end up with a beating full of bags. But these personal vendettas are not as good as the destruction of heavy treasures, the former is only a private matter, and the latter may be punished beyond their own tolerance.

For this group of people who stand at the pinnacle of power, the edict cannot bring back a magician, this is a provocation to the empire!

As the core of power in one of the five empires, how can he endure the result of being slapped in the face by a magician. All the people gathered looked coldly at the losers kneeling underneath. Others, on the other hand, showed blatant displeasure and looked at the promoter of the failed mission, Grand Duke Risa.

"Tell me, what's going on?" The emperor, who looked down at the paperwork, did not raise his head, and asked in a majestic voice.

"Your Majesty, the recruitment mission failed, and the minister cannot escape the blame. Please also condemn the crime. Returning to the familiar civilized occasion, Aga said neither humbly nor arrogantly. Of course, I secretly complained about that hillbilly and an existence worse than a barbarian.

"People didn't come back, and of course I knew it had failed. Why? That's what I want to know. ”

"His Majesty's fourteenth son intervened." Aga said unabashedly.

The emperor and ministers who heard it were all stunned and froze. Some people also looked left and right worriedly, trying to make sure that a certain prince was really not present. There were also those who looked at the Emperor and Grand Duke Rissa, who might have known about it, but were also surprised.

Those who knew first-hand information were the emperor's janissaries, as well as the eldest son of the Grand Duke. Even if the Empire does not regard the information transmitted by the forum as a trusted source in official government and military affairs, how can these insiders not inform their families or direct governors through the forum in private.

The Emperor, who pretended to hear the news for the first time, put down his paperwork and quill, and sat upright, looking at the young men kneeling in a row below. "Tell me what you're seeing. Be detailed, don't leave anything out. "Although Emperor Armin already knows the general situation, the details still have to wait for someone to come back, and it will be clearer to inquire directly. Instrumental reporting still has its limitations.

Grand Duke Risa's eldest son, Aga is definitely not a brother who does not know how to learn, he talks clearly in his thoughts, but when he talks about a certain prince, he only uses the word 'His Highness' to address him, and does not say it.

Although the demon prince Azad was deprived of the right to inherit the throne, his status as a prince was not deprived. Even if he was denounced as a commoner and lost his title, he was still the son of His Majesty the Emperor. Although I don't know if I don't respect this person, I will be accused of contempt for the royal family by His Majesty the Emperor, but no one wants to try it.

Agha's statement didn't add much to the fire, he just emphasized the rudeness of the magician and the unreasonableness of His Highness. No one would doubt whether Aga had mistaken the prince, and no one dared to ask for verification.

In fact, when the son of Grand Duke Rissa, Aga spoke of his act of tearing up the edict and swallowing it. Most people couldn't help but want to applaud, and even the emperor had a relieved expression and praised: "He is really worthy of being the eldest son of the Risa family, brave and resolute, the pillar of the future of the empire." ”

Everyone has the same idea, as long as you keep that person away from the palace, it will be a great credit! Even the recruitment of that magician was never mentioned again. Especially when they heard that the magician actually had the strength to compete with that person, everyone asked in disbelief, "Is this true?" "Anyone can fight against that one?" "How much effort do you see they are doing?"

In response to this, everyone was quite concerned, and even allowed the knights of the Praetorian Guard, who were kneeling behind them, to speak. Otherwise, they would not be qualified to speak alone on such occasions. But in order to verify the strength of that magician and the performance of that person, everyone didn't care about the rules.

In that brief exchange between them, neither the accompanying Janissary Knight nor the Aga who served as the messenger could see that the mage had a tendency to lose. Compared to one side overpowering the other, from the vicious eyes of the guards, it is more like a situation where no one can help anyone.

"So no matter what the real strength comparison between the two is, wouldn't it be a good thing if a magician with the same level of strength as His Highness was recruited to serve as an advisor in the palace?" When the agent of Grand Duke Kawi, his eldest son Farshid, asked such a question, the emperor and his ministers were silent.

As if to break the deadlock, Emperor Armin asked, "Tell me what it was like when Tybernev was destroyed. ”

The deputy commander of the guard, Yoon, who has the blood of a giant, is a person who is trusted by the emperor, and he also has good strength. Ranked among the folk adventurer groups, he can also get the honorific title of Great Swordsman. If he had traveled enough and gained enough recognition, it would not be surprising that he would be called 'Juggernaut'. From the fact that he was able to save a life under the hands of that troublesome son, it can be seen that his strength is high.

Even so, he still couldn't stop his own son's misdeeds. Almin believed that it was impossible for the deputy commander of the personal guard to deliberately allow others to destroy the emperor's armor. And with the legendary weapon Insadhu, the leader of the Boxche clan, it shouldn't be difficult to destroy that armor.

But if the destroyer was the magician, and the destruction was so complete, the essence of the matter would be completely different. Those who have seen it believe that this armor will be scrapped, and it is easier to recast it than to repair it.

Jon, who has the strength of a great swordsman, when describing the battle between the two and the method by which the magician destroyed the Emperor's armor, of course, will not only talk about the situation that happened, but also add the insights he gained from that battle. But in a thousand words, it can be summed up in two inhuman battles.

Emperor Armor Tybernifer's defense is neither a trigger nor an active skill, but a constant magic effect, coupled with the hardness of the material itself, and the impact-resistant design of the armor. It can be said that in addition to not being afraid of piercing-type damage, it is also not afraid of the nemesis of general full-style armor, and the damage of the heavy attack type.

But such a beautiful pair of magical crafts and powerful armor were cut into fine pieces by that magician in an instant. Combined with the rumors that the magician once destroyed half of the team with one blow, perhaps, the other party should not be viewed at the level of a 'magician'. This is at least the strength of a great mage, or even a magic saint.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Emperor Armin asked, "In your opinion, is it possible to recruit the other party?" "He's no longer thinking about how to 'knock it down'.

And the tower-like strong man in front of him is not a person who has only muscles and no brains. After thinking seriously for a while, he shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, that's not a magician who is willing to be subservient. ”

As we all know, the extraordinary powerhouses that can be recruited and cultivated by the state units are mainly warriors, and the top talents of the magic system rarely join the national system and pledge their allegiance. In addition to the self-proclaimed protector of civilization, the self-proclaimed protector of civilization is more cranky than a warrior with a tendon, and it is impossible for the state to recruit and support a magician at any cost.

To improve the strength of the top warriors, they need rare materials to make weapons and equipment, or to concoct powerful physique potions, and the only thing left is practice. Although it costs a lot, it is not comparable to the bottomless pit of a magician. The research of magicians is to burn money, and most importantly, burning it does not necessarily bear fruit. Therefore, the investment and income of the two are disproportionate.

Therefore, no matter which country's top strength, most of the proportions between tactics are biased towards the former.

"And, Your Majesty, as your Guardian, Jonn is willing to use his body as a shield for you. But no one is safe in that magician's field of vision. Are you really willing to put yourself where he can see it? ”

The upright giant bloodline made Jon tell the truth that many people understand in their hearts, but they are unwilling to admit it. Everyone in the Chamber of the Republic is stubborn that power allows them to do whatever they want, and then magicians or others are afraid to do anything they want. This is true for the most part, but there are always some exceptions to the mystery.

The Emperor shook his hand, put his gaze and attention back on the paperwork on the table, and said, "Forget it, that's the end of the matter about that magician, don't mention it again." Go down, and leave nothing else to account. ”

From the emperor's point of view, if the opponent's strength is high to a certain level, he cannot be co-opted or cooperated, nor should he stand on the opposite side.

Under such a premise, it is pointless to punish the group of people in front of you. On the contrary, because they found out the strength of that magician, it may not be the whole picture, but it is enough for them to pay attention to and reevaluate this person. In this way, the group of people in front of them has merit but no fault.

And it was clear that Emperor Tybernifer was not enough to rely on against it, and this matter was particularly important. Otherwise, one day I would have my brain pumped, thinking that I would be able to get into trouble with that magician by wearing that armor, and in the end, there would be my own flesh and blood mixed in the pile of fragments on the ground in front of me.

Not to mention continuing to provoke that magician, it is very likely that he will buy one get one free, and his troublesome son will run back. Thinking of this, the emperor felt that his right tooth nest was sour. Since the last time he was beaten out by that evil son, although he was restored with magic, he still has a toothache when he thinks about it now. So just drive it away, and leave nothing else to worry about.

For those who have been forgiven, the hearts that have been carried by them have finally been relaxed. "Yes, Your Majesty," he replied in unison. Then he got up and stepped back, and Yukani walked out of the Hall of the Republic.
