Chapter 677: Return

The so-called trouble is also a headache for Aurelia, after all, the holy sword was pulled out, the seal was lifted, and then you went back and told everyone that the demon king had run away, isn't this a pitfall?

But if you want to say that the demon king is sealed, then as soon as people appear in the end, your cowhide will be directly pierced.

But this is something that Aurelia has to think about, and Duanmu Huai doesn't care about that.

But then again, he is quite familiar with this brave man's operation.

In order to gain power, he betrayed his children and grandchildren——— well, a certain emperor also did a similar operation.

I still want to repay the debts later, but the creditors are not easy to mess with.

So Duanmuhuai looks down on this kind of clever person the most, if you have the ability, you will go on it, and if you don't have the ability, you have to be stupid to jump in the minefield, there will always be a day to blow up. As the saying goes, how can you walk by the river without getting your shoes wet, what's the point of being smart? If you win, you can't get on the table, and if you lose, it means that you are stupid.........

The more you know, the less respect you have for the Emperor. But all the glorious deeds of the emperor were basically run over by him. But most of the troubles caused by the emperor were caused by him, and he had to overturn them. And again and again...............

At the end of the day, it's the emperor who is too self-righteous.

Take the Imperial Truth as an example, the Emperor's original intention was to block information about subspace and chaos through the Imperial Truth, but the question is, there are so many people in the Human Empire, he dares to pat his chest to ensure that no one in the world will explore subspace from now to the future? Interested in Chaos?

Science cannot prove the existence of God, so are there still fewer people who believe in God?

And the evil god is not the final boss in the game, if you don't touch it in front of it, it won't move, won't it take the initiative to lure mortals?

Not to mention the existence of psionic beings, when humans come into contact with the subspace, their first reaction is not the same as what the emperor said? Second reaction, I'm dazzled? The third reaction, I'm not dazzled, the imperial truth is a lie? This stupid emperor lied to Lao Tzu?

Yo, isn't that the end of the calf?

Therefore, the Imperial Truth is a stupid trick from the beginning, unless the Emperor controls all human beings to engage in collective consciousness and does not allow any individual thinking to appear, and then kills all psykers, otherwise you can deceive yourself.

Not to mention that the subspace itself is chaotic, and players have also made a joke, that is, even if the emperor implements the imperial truth smoothly, and human beings also fully believe in the imperial truth, then there will be an evil god called "atheism" in the subspace. And all the people of the empire are all believers in this evil god, and then people learn the path of slaanesh and roar when they see injustice, and swallow all the human souls to become the fifth evil god, then aren't you human beings the second spirit race?

After all, people's subspace is here, do you deny it or not, and it has a dime to do with it?

If you close your eyes, it's your business that it's dark, and the sun doesn't care.

Therefore, the Emperor's so-called imperial truth is a standard cover-up in the eyes of the player, a pure joke.

Forget it, digress, pull back.

The most troublesome thing now is the demon king.

From the current point of view, the demon king should be about the same age as an ordinary person, and he is not a monster with a ten-meter-tall mouth that spits flames, and he has been running for so many years, where can he find this?

However, since the Demon King signed a contract with the Brave Man, it means that he will definitely not make a move in five hundred years.

Five hundred years have passed now?

Although it was a huge blow not to find the Demon King, fortunately Aurelia was also resolute and did not make a big deal when she left the fortress, so most people did not know what was happening. After sending scouts to reconnoiter and make sure that the monsters on the ice field had completely dissipated, Aurelia declared that the defense of the Northland Fortress had been successfully completed, and that most of the legions would follow her back to the royal city of Luminas, leaving only a few regular soldiers to continue to defend here.

And Duanmu Huai naturally followed Aurelia to the royal city of Luminas.

When Aurelia led the army through the city gates, flower petals fluttered in the wind, cheering people on both sides, and loud bells echoed over the city.

As for Duanmu Huai.........

"Well, I have to say, this scene is really familiar."

Watching Aurelia walk through the street with petals flying and walking towards the palace, Duanmu Huai muttered to himself, he stretched out his hand and took the petals flying down, only to see that the delicate and bright petals became shriveled and withered at Duanmu Huai's fingertips. Then Duanmu Huai threw the petals aside and continued to walk forward.

Next, it was Aurelia who pushed open the door and walked into the throne hall to kill her father with a sword in front of the king......... Well, that's overthinking.

"You've returned safely, Aurelia."

The old man sitting on the throne looked scrawny, and if it weren't for the fact that Duanmu Huai didn't feel the necromantic aura from him, he would even wonder if this old man would be a necromantic lich.

"You did a good job in the battle of the Northland............"

The old king was panting like a cow, to be honest, looking at the old man in front of him, Duanmu Huai suspected that if he didn't use Aurelia to do it, he would just gasp if he couldn't do it himself.

"It's all thanks to everyone."

Aurelia kept her head down, her expression unchanged.

"Without the sacrifices and battles of the soldiers, we would not have been able to defeat the monsters and achieve victory."

"Well, I know......... The sacrifice of the soldiers......... Sadly, I will give them enough rewards......... Yes, the reward ..............."

The old man's voice was so muffled that Duanmu Huai had to wonder if the king had Alzheimer's disease. In fact, during the whole process of speaking, there seemed to be only Orelia in his eyes, and it was clear that Duanmu Huai was standing not far behind Aurelia, but he didn't even look at Duanmu Huai.

Well, if he's not blind, he's definitely blind.

"Your Majesty, I have a very important matter that I would like to report to you........."

"Ahem......... Ahem, cough, cough ...............!! ”

However, just as Aurelia raised her head and was about to say something to the king, the old king suddenly coughed violently, and his broken panting sound echoed in the royal court, and at this moment, a man in a black robe and a look that looked like "I am suspicious" walked up to the king and whispered something to the king, and the king nodded and looked at Aurelia again.

Then the man looked up and spoke.

"Your Majesty is not in good health, so let's stop here, Your Highness Aurelia, regarding the rewards of the legion, the military department will be in charge."

“………………… I know. ”

Aurelia's expression did not change in the slightest, and her eyes seemed very silent, she saluted, and then turned to leave the hall, while Duanmu Huai glanced at the old king, who was helped up by the man and walked backwards like a half-paralyzed stroke patient, and left with Aurelia.

“………………… I'm sorry. ”

Walking out of the royal court, Aurelia turned her head and apologized to Duanmu Huai.

"Originally, my father said that he would grant you the title of Holy Sword Commander in this meeting........."

It turns out that the title of player is issued by this half-paralyzed Alzheimer's disease?

That's too much, isn't it?

"It's okay, that's it......... The body doesn't seem to be very good? ”

"Yes, my father fell ill two years ago, and his health has deteriorated since then........."

At this, Aurelia shook her head.

"As for your reward, the military department will take a little time."

"It doesn't matter, I just plan to go shopping in the royal capital."

"Okay, then......... I'll send Erica to contact you later. ”

"Hehe, then I'll see you later."

Duanmu Huai didn't care too much, after all, when he came to the royal capital, his purpose was half accomplished.

As for the other half...............

"Master!"

As soon as Duanmu Huai walked out of the palace gate, he saw Ogis and Rose flying over and hugged him.

"You're out so soon?"

"There's really nothing to do......... Well, that's wrong, there's still something to be done. ”

"What's the matter?"

"You'll find out with me."

Duanmu Huai patted the head of the flail, and the flail proudly threw a provocative look at Okis, facing the expression of the flail, Okis's brows furrowed slightly, and then returned to the original state again.

Duanmu Huai didn't care about the matter between the two puppet sisters, he hadn't forgotten that one of the purposes of coming to this world this time was to get the title of Holy Sword and Holy Sword Commander——— well, the Holy Sword should be considered to be obtained, right?

The other is to find talents for their own territory, and it just so happens that Duanmu Huai just knows that there is indeed such a place in the royal city of Luminas!

"Let's go, there's a lot more to do."

In a dark alley in the city of Luminus, there is a shop that is very famous among players.

There are several reasons for this.

First, the owner is a beautiful girl.

Second, the store is genuine.

Third, that's in the business of this store......... There are human resources!

That's right, just like a modern job agency, where players can trade with the store manager to get a series of "neutral" soul cards, and many of them are domestic and foreign talents, which is simply very useful for players, especially those of the soul bringer class.

Of course, these soul cards are also worth a lot of money and are quite expensive, but ......... Fortunately, Duanmu Huai is rich and wealthy, and he is not afraid of spending money.

Now I'm afraid that the store is a website officially operated by the game.,It doesn't exist in reality.,If that's the case, it's going to be numb.。

But fortunately, when Duanmu Huai walked into the alley and came to his destination according to his memory, he was still relieved when he saw the familiar shop.

Then, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand and pushed open the door.

"Jingle Bell ........."

The doorbell rang, and then Duanmu Huai walked into the shop and looked around.

There is almost no difference between this and the game, only to see a large number of display cases placed next to the walls on both sides, and in these display cases, there are soul cards——— yes, this is also the only place in the game where soul cards are blatantly put out for sale!

At the same time, a crisp and pleasant voice sounded.

"Hello, distinguished guests, and welcome to the House of Illusions."

With this voice, Duanmu Huai saw a girl with smooth black hair and a cloak on her body walking out of it.

"I'm Stefal, the manager of this store, what do you need?"

Then, the girl looked at Duanmu Huai and asked with a smile.
