Chapter 190: An Opportunity
Dinner at the palace is still delicious, but as the queen said, no matter what time it is, the taste of these delicacies is actually the same, and as a creation of the age of technology, people will also lose some of the fun while enjoying the convenience of technology.
However, these things are now some hypocritical innocent moans.
After chatting with the Grand Duke for a while, Xia Lian took the Duke of Panakya back to his bedroom, ready to continue chatting about the next plan, but just as he was about to walk to the bedroom.
The sound of mercury could be heard in his communication channel.
"Your Highness, the orichant is gone."
"Huh?" Xia Lian's footsteps paused, and his eyebrows raised slightly.
Seeing that Xia Lian had stopped, Panakya also stopped and asked suspiciously.
"What's wrong?"
Xia Lian was speechless, and Mercury in the communication channel continued.
"As soon as you were ready to return, I asked him to continue lurking in the palace disguised as a waiter, but a few minutes ago, he lost news."
"Suddenly lost news?"
"No news of the battle has come."
"I see, but I know where he is now."
Xia Lian raised his head and quietly looked at the group of people walking not far away.
The leader is the Zas they were talking about just now, and behind him should be his cronies and some reformers.
And those transformers are pressing the glandalite towards this side at the moment, his head is covered with the palm of a transformer, his eyes are dim, as if the energy has been sucked away, but the appearance is not harmed.
"You are Charian of the Duchy of Helios?" Zas stood still in front of Xia Lian.
"Hello, General Zas, I've admired my name for a long time." Xia Lian smiled, "What, is there something? And."
He looked at the Orichon, "And my captors."
"Hmph, you'll admit it?" Zas sneered.
After a pause, he said, "He disguised himself as a waiter in the palace, and was spotted by my people and caught by us on the spot.
Duke Helios, what do you mean by placing such a reformed person in the palace?"
The Panakya Gong on one side frowned, looked at Xia Lian, and then at the mountain copper.
But Xia Lian was still calm, with a light smile on his face, "What, are you questioning me?"
"I'm just doing my business." Zas said coldly, "Tell me, Duke Helios, what is your purpose?
And what exactly did you do? The palace that sent this reformer to?"
"What purpose can it be?" Xia Lian said funny, "When I came to the banquet before, I brought two reformed people, and at that time, the people in the palace didn't say much."
"Yes." Panakya said openly, "I can prove it."
Zas glanced coldly at Panakia, "Did I let you speak?"
The vague evil aura combined with his burly body of nearly two meters made Panakya take a step back subconsciously, and after he reacted, his face quickly became gloomy.
Zas turned his head and looked at Xia Lian, "But I remember that the two reformers you brought were both women."
"Isn't it easy to transform people and change them into men and women? Even most of the time it's genderless." Xia Lian said amusedly, "Since you are the commander-in-chief of the front line, you should also have some secret troops of reformed people, right?
Why, don't you even know the ability to transform people?"
Xia Lian smiled and said with a slight sarcasm, "How did you, the commander-in-chief, sit down?
Is it just because you're going to wag your tail in front of the Emperor?"
"Flutter~", the Duke of Panachea on the side couldn't help laughing, "That's right, General Zas, you don't understand this, do you?"
Zas didn't mean to be angry at the ridicule of the two, but just snorted coldly, "Then in that case, let my people enter your bed."
Let's take a look at the room.
Look, those two transformers of yours are not in there."
Xia Lian's smile gradually converged, and he said calmly.
"General Zas, are you getting a little bit of an inch?"
"If you haven't done anything, why are you afraid of me searching your bedroom?" Zas asked rhetorically.
"Do you think it's a very offensive thing to do?"
"I don't think so."
Xia Lian nodded, "It seems that the battle situation of the new Federation is indeed good, so you have the leisure to go all the way to the palace to find trouble for me."
"You don't seem to have figured out your situation."
Zas scoffed.
"Right now, you're in the palace, not in your summer palace."
Xia Lian nodded, "That's true.
Zath's eyes flashed with disdain, and he seemed to want to say something, suddenly.
"Boom!"
He felt his chest being hit by a speeding train, and his whole body soared into the air, slamming into one side of the wall, and even some blue blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
And Xia Lian silently withdrew his feet.
All of this happened so quickly and so unexpectedly that even the reformers didn't react.
After they realized that Zath had been attacked, several reformers immediately reacted and were about to reach out to control Xia Lian, but the raised hand couldn't reach out.
"In all the transhumans, in the empire and even the principality, there is basically such a communal agreement." Xia Lian slowly walked towards Zas, who had fallen to the ground.
"That is, after the Emperor signed the All-Out War Decree, all Transhumans are obliged to protect the important personnel who represent the Empire.
Such as the Emperor, the Empress, and the Grand Duke.
This decree is mandatory, implemented through the triggering of a brain chip, and is a joint development of the three principalities and the technicians of the Empire, one of which is the Duchy of Helios.
In wartime, only the Emperor has the power to decide whether the Grand Duke lives or dies."
This is mainly because the emperor wants to prevent some dissenting grand dukes from sending reformers to assassinate him.
The inclusion of the Grand Duke was a compromise between the two sides, and only in this way could this agreement be implemented in all principalities.
This is also the reason why those transformational people around him can't use force against Xia Lian.
Xia Lian slowly raised his foot, stepped on Zath's face, and looked at him condescendingly.
"Who do you think I am?
What am I doing wrong to make you think that I am a good talker?
Let you, the general of the empire, not even call the Duke of Helios, dare to call me by my name?"
Zath struggled to get up from the ground, but Xia Lian had a magical power that made him unable to get up at all.
Although Xia Lian is not short, the difference between the height of about one meter and eight meters is too big for a burly man who is two meters tall, and the gap in this body type is the opposite result, and the impact of this kind of picture is huge for the people around.
"I will definitely become a Grand Duke in the future!" Zas gritted his teeth and looked at him with eyes that were eager to eat Xia Lian.
"Then when you become the Grand Duke, come and tell me this, if you want to search my bedroom, then ask the Emperor to come and tell me in person."
As he spoke, Xia Lian withdrew his foot, and then, looking at the transformer who was pressing the mountain copper, said coldly, "Let go."
The transformer hurriedly let go of his hand, and by the way, he retrieved the data line in his brain composed of micro and nano nanometers.
Shancu's eyes lit up slightly, his eyes regained a little clarity, he looked around a little confused, and then looked at Xia Lian, as if he hadn't reacted to the current situation.
"Grand Duke?"
"Can you stand up?" Xia Lian said.
Omotrium slowly stood up from the ground and followed Xia Lian's side.
"Let's go." Xia Lian arrived.
then
The three of them turned around and walked to Xia Lian's bedroom, without even looking back.
"Don't hurry yet. Lift me up!!"
Zath's weak and angry voice came from the side, and the reformer reacted and hurriedly helped Zath up.
"A bunch of trash!" Zas roared, "He's all attacking me, why don't you stop it!? You have an obligation to protect the Grand Duke, but you have no obligation to protect me?"
"General, his authority is higher than yours." The reformer said silently.
Zas didn't continue to speak, but clenched his fists and watched Xia Lian's departing back.
"You guy, you are too bold, you dare to fight the emperor's henchmen in the palace?" Panachea couldn't help but say, "We haven't gone out yet."
"Isn't this what the Emperor wants to see?" Xia Lian said, "Since this is the case, then I will grant his wish."
Panakea's face froze, "What do you mean?"
"Familiar? What is that?" Xia Lian asked rhetorically.
Panacea's face sank and he was speechless.
"Do you think what he did today was improvised?" Xia Lian said, "There is no pusher in the back, he is just a general, and he dares to come to trouble the Grand Duke?"
"If nothing else, this general, who has conquered such a vast land, will become the first new Grand Duke of the Empire in more than a hundred years.
And his territory is near the Duchy of Helios." Xia Lian said.
After a pause, he sneered.
"This emperor's mind trick of the left and right, that guy uses it very well.
If nothing else, the next script is that Zas complains to the Emperor.
Then, instead of punishing me, the Emperor would reprimand Zas, hit a large board on the left and right, and then give each a sweet date.
In this way, I don't have any reason to resent the emperor, and of course the relationship won't be too good.
But it's clear that Zas hates me.
In the future, if he becomes a Grand Duke, he will definitely form an elbow with me.
Look, he'll be going to trouble the Principality of Bahram next.
Three-legged and hostile to each other is a solid shape, isn't it?
We were a mess down there, but he was on the throne, drinking tea, and watching the tigers fight."
After a pause, he looked at Panakya and teased.
"How do you feel?"
"Shiddering." Panakya said.
"Not so much."
Xia Lian curled his fingers slightly without a trace, and a pool of azure blood was hidden in his palm, very energetic.
"But. It also gave me a chance."
