Volume III, Chapter 73

This controversy ended in the indifferent gaze of His Majesty the Emperor, and then there was a strange phenomenon of fists and kicks while loosening the ties to give money. Interior officials patted the residents on the cheeks while blaming the rebels for all their faults, and for the first time in their lives, the citizens of Spiya were treated differently.

When a neighborhood was cleared and interior officials stood on the rubble to proclaim the end of wartime rule in their neighborhood, the residents applauded and cheered enthusiastically—especially when they heard that there was a trial meeting in a few days and that they had something to share.

The pro-rebel residents are rich in their homes, and everyone has been red for a long time, and the physical pain has not completely disappeared, and everyone is shouting Long live the emperor...... Cohen didn't spend any money himself, and used other people's property to stabilize the people's hearts.

There were cheers everywhere, but at this time, Cohen showed a wry smile and whispered to the people around him: "Look, in fact, it is not difficult to be an emperor, if you can endure your disgust with yourself." ”

White Shadow replied, "I thought you were smug about this technique. ”

"I've long been tired of using this kind of hooliganism, and I've been tired of using it in my last life. His Majesty Cohen leaned against the railing: "What is the difference between being an emperor and being a rogue head?"

"I don't know the exact difference. White Shadow gave a rare smile to such Cohen: "If you're a scoundrel, at least I won't be by your side." ”

Although His Majesty the Emperor used to have the nickname of "Rogue Governor", he never confirmed it himself, and what a blessing it was for this bold maid to be able to follow the Emperor......! Anyway, this kind of conversation scared the guards in the building car to the point that their heels went limp.

Only the General Staff shouted in his heart long live – at this time. One more white shadow is by Cohen's side to relieve him of the pressure. That's great!

It was getting dark. The noisy city was gradually restored to calm, the streets were guarded by guards, and the interior officials brought tents from outside the city to shelter the residents whose homes had been destroyed, and they also brought food.

After treating the wounded of the army, medical personnel also began to treat the wounded among the residents. The holy capital is being restored bit by bit.

At this time, no one else could be more irritable than the President of the Royal Academy - in fact, the reason why Dean Lorenzo was furious, was simple. The Royal Academy had previously been used as a makeshift barracks by the rebels, and when he brought people in for protection, it was a mess.

The courtyard was full of wounded soldiers who had not had time to escape, the most sacred pulpit was piled with filthy debris, and ancient books were used by the rebels to boil water...... What kind of person is Dean Lorenzo? As soon as the military discipline supervisor saw his beloved academy like this, his eyes immediately turned red inside and out.

More than 1,000 rebels were thrown into the streets by him, and he even rushed up and slapped the wounded himself, although this did not help much.

Fortunately, the nearby Royal Library has not been damaged much, and it is basically intact. But he didn't want to hide anything from the shrewd Dean Lorenzo, who just looked through the catalogue. Standing in front of him, the "director of the royal library of the rebel regime" was so frightened that his legs and stomach were shaking.

"Where is the complete book of Huo Saiya? Where is the solitary book of Gutaaf's chronicles?!" He pointed unceremoniously at the other party's nose: "I can't tell, I buried you alive!"

"All of them are in the homes of officials of various ministries...... It was given away as a gift. I—I've got an IOU here......"

"As a curator, you can't protect the collection of books - why don't you die!"

Dean Lorenzo grabbed the IOU and went out with an entire guard battalion to recover these national treasures. He held the position of Imperial Commander-in-Chief of Military Discipline and was unhindered in the curfew-free Holy Capital—in fact, he was highly respected by the military system.

The dignitaries of the rebel regime were either poisoned by their masters or imprisoned by the Al Qeda Army, and the rest of those who had been in contact with the Al Qeda family earlier were also afraid, how could they dare to offend this figure who started the fire to be more murderous than the soldiers?

As a result, Dean Lorenzo still earned—he didn't care so many soldiers who acted with him, as long as it was a book, he would take it.

Some people even had their family trees robbed by the soldiers, and they ran to the emperor's majesty to cry, but all of them were closed. Turning around, His Majesty Cohen asked the Chief of Staff to draft a commendation for Dean Lorenzo's efforts to protect the Empire's national treasure.

At this time, Dean Lorenzo did even more energetically, although he said that he did not value the praise of His Majesty the Emperor.

Perhaps due to the dean's excesses, someone soon found a secret note left by the intelligence agent who followed Luman on a street corner, and the news reached Cohen as quickly as possible.

"He's in the Holy Capital Temple. Cohen looked at the General Staff Officer with some surprise: "Are you sure?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Carlos gave Cohen an affirmative reply: "It's a bit of a problem now." ”

"What's the trouble?

"That...... Your Majesty, no one can lead troops into the temple, let alone arrest people. As the spokesmen of the Light Protoss in the human world, they have a status far higher than that of secular officials. Major General Carlos coughed dryly and whispered to his emperor, "In the Divine Alliance, this is the most basic common sense. ”

"Others have scruples about the temple, but I don't. Command, first surround the temple for me. His Majesty Cohen smiled coldly: "Let's go for a walk!"

"But Majesty xià ......"

"Don't talk nonsense, the soldiers went up the sword mountain and down the sea of fire because of my words, and their emperor didn't even dare to enter the temple, is this still like words?" Cohen motioned to Bai Ying to hang up his sword: "Shrine! ”

This was just heard by Dean Lorenzo, who had walked to the top floor of the building.

"Your Majesty the Emperor said it well!" Dean Lorenzo took the initiative to salute Cohen for the first time: "Your Majesty's decision is very correct, and His Majesty is willing to go with him." ”

"Really, if the dean is with me, we'll have to prepare the carriage. Cohen put on a kind smile and walked over to talk to the dean cordially: "My dean, I just found out today that your personality is suitable for being a soldier!"

"It's my misfortune to have the opportunity to show such a character. Dean Lorenzo and Cohen walked side by side on the stairs: "Your Majesty." I've heard that you're abusing my students. In fact, they cried to me......"

"Little things. You also know that the military situation is urgent, so where will I have time to reason with them?"

"But your majesty is insulting art...... thing"

"Art varies from person to person, from time to time, from mood to mood. ”

"You're quibbling. ”

"Thanks for the compliment. ”

Major General Carlos watched the "two bastards, one old and one young" argue and walked down, with a helpless expression on his face. Although he disagreed with it, he finally shook his head and told someone to prepare the carriage.

The Holy Capital is the capital of the Sbia Empire, and as a symbol of the supreme power of the Light God Clan, the scale of the temple is certainly not small. Just to surround the temple, the Al Qeda army dispatched two regiments of guards.

When the carriage of His Majesty the Emperor arrived. The Engineer Corps has dug five tunnels leading from the temple to the outside, completely cutting off the possibility of the target escaping again.

Cohen got out of the car and checked out one of them, chatted with the engineer commander, and finally talked about lighting a smoked rabbit when he was a child.

As soon as His Majesty the Emperor left, the clever engineer commander immediately ordered someone to open the tunnel opening, throw the kind of firewood that was not going to be done inside, and then light a fire......

"Your Majesty the Emperor has arrived—salute!" the officer who was monitoring the main gate shouted, and trotted to the carriage: "Report to Your Majesty, we have just reconfirmed that the target is indeed inside." ”

"Well done. Cohen stepped out of the carriage: "How did they react?"

The priests chanted aloud the words of the God King of Light. Block the door with your body. The officer looked puzzled: "Could it be that their bodies can block knives?"

"It's hard to know that they are reading the sayings of the God King, so I have to make up for your common sense. The dean of the academy also got out of the carriage: "Your Majesty." Enter in the name of the Blessed Knight!"

Cohen shook his head.

The dean sighed heavily, and repeated his opinion again: "Your Majesty, I ask you to enter in the name of the Divine Blessed Knight, and at this juncture, please don't cause trouble for the Empire. ”

"My dean. Cohen suddenly turned around and put his hands on the dean's shoulders: "I'm going to capture my enemy and avenge my closest brother...... I don't want to go in any other capacity, just in my own name, Cohen. In the name of Al Qaeda. Even if you don't allow it, please let me do it. ”

With that, Cohen let go of his hand and strode towards the main entrance of the temple. The royal guards had already rushed out, more than a few dozen arm's length in front of Cohen, and the white shadow in white clothes also walked beside Cohen, not falling a single step.

"Stupid, clumsy, hot-headed!" the dean caught up with him in a few steps, and shouted in a very small voice in Cohen's ear, "You are the emperor, you can't be emotional......"

"Dean, feelings used to be the whole of my life. Cohen stopped and glared at Lorenzo with his eyes: "You can not follow, but please don't stop me." ”

Lorenzo sighed inwardly, and although he didn't agree with Cohen's approach, he still followed Cohen to the temple gate.

"Stop—this is the temple, the most glorious and sacred place that cannot be desecrated!" a group of priests crowded the door, warning those who approached in a strong tone: "Those who dare to offend will definitely be punished by the Light God Clan!"

This kind of endless deterrent to the worldly people had no effect on the rock and the others, and the fierce rock leaned against the door, and with a single punch, the priest who shouted was spurted blood and flew into the courtyard.

"Will the great and wise God King of Light stand up for you?" Surprisingly, the first to rush in was the dean, who pointed at the priest who fell to the ground and cursed, and immediately convicted the priests: "Yang and Yin are disobedient, deceived and deceived from the superior and the inferior - it is blasphemy for a despicable villain like you to call the name of the God King of Light!"

There was chaos in the courtyard, and the soldiers behind kept pouring in amid the noise. The priests didn't dare to play prestige with Cohen and the others, but they dared to pull and pull with the soldiers, but the soldiers of the Kaida family didn't eat this at all, and the pull quickly turned into a one-sided fight......

"Bold!" On the passage leading to the main hall in the front yard of the temple, a priest of a slightly higher status stood out, and he shouted indignantly: "Is there a temple in your eyes, and is there a light god clan!"

The words were shouted with sound transmission magic, and even the soldiers surrounding the temple could hear them clearly. As he shouted, a dozen low-ranking priests struggled to move a statue of the God-King of Light, who they had brought from the temple and placed behind the shouting priest.

"Your Kaida family is going upside down. After entering the Holy Capital. You don't see it. Second, if you don't ask for peace, this is rude. Until now, he has led troops to break into the temple!" The priest leaned against the statue of the God King of Light, and he became more and more righteous, and slapped his chest violently and shouted: "Come on!

Cohen was still unhurried forward, and the guards rushed forward with the rocks. Looking at the hideous faces of the soldiers, the priests were shocked, and by the time they felt that something was wrong and wanted to get away, it was already too late.

"Don't run. A winged guard officer grabbed the priest leader who wanted to slip away. One punch knocked him to the ground: "We will satisfy you." ”

Then the brigade really struck them on the chest, and the priests who were lying on the ground did not understand until they died, why things had come to this point, the status of the temple was extremely high, and the status of the priests was the same. Why did a priest who usually look at him frighten people out of his body end up like this today? Aren't these soldiers from the Divine Alliance?

Cohen stood in the square behind the main hall and whispered to the rock, "Get him out." ”

"The chief ordered—get Luman out. The rock shouted: "I have to turn him out even if I dig three feet into the ground, I want to live!"

The troops responded, and dispersed in groups, scrambling through every room with knives and guns.

The rude movements of the soldiers caused the sound of various things shattering. Even the carved jade door of the main hall was smashed by the soldiers......

The temple has always been extremely extravagant, and now every strange sound. can make the high priest hiding behind his heart bleed.

After the soldiers of the Guards successfully demolished the main hall, the high priest sent someone to ask His Majesty Cohen to "enter the inner hall and speak".

"No!" The hateful Cohen also pretended to excuse himself: "The inner courtyard of the temple is the living place of the high-ranking officials of the temple, and it is not very convenient for secular officials to enter......"

"Your Majesty the Emperor's grace, please let go of the temple for the sake of your acquaintance in the past!" came to ask his priest to plead bitterly: "It is not easy for the temple to accumulate this little belongings! ”

Cohen immediately raised his hand – and it was a slap in the face!

"Your shelves are good!" The dean next to him saw that something was wrong, and immediately jumped out: "The Divine Blessing Knight is coming, and the high priest is not even out to greet him—there is no honor guard!"

"Coming soon, coming soon—" The beaten priest ran to the inner courtyard in a panic with his swollen face.

Cohen glanced at Lorenzo amusefully and angrily, and was a little helpless about the old man's insistence.

If it was in another place, Dean Lorenzo would definitely jump up and quarrel with Cohen at the first time, but in front of outsiders, Dean Lorenzo still had to try his best to maintain the emperor's prestige and do his best to make up for the mistakes in the emperor's way of acting.

In the old days, the dean was on the opposite side of Cohen's Majesty and was treated by Cohen's Majesty with a tough approach. Today, following Cohen and watching Cohen deal with others with his unique means, I finally found some balance in my heart.

Besides, the abbot also had no good feelings for these priests.

After a while, the high priest of the temple with a guard of honor came out to greet him, and invited His Majesty Cohen and his party into the inner courtyard respectfully.

In the grand chamber of the temple, Cohen sat unhurriedly on the throne, not at all in a hurry to speak. The refreshments served by the priests were inspected by the White Shadow one by one before they were allowed to be placed in front of Cohen.

The well-dressed high priest sat across from His Majesty Cohen, his smiling face full of embarrassment.

"The Blessed Knight has come from afar, and it must have been very hard. Because of the order of the Light Protoss, no priests were sent to the army to pray for the blessings of the soldiers during the war, and I hope that the gods will bless the knights and not blame them. After saying the opening remarks, the high priest cautiously asked, "I wonder what the Divine Blessing Knight came to visit at night, what is this for?"

Cohen smiled slightly, but did not answer. The General Staff Officer, who was standing behind him, coughed lightly and motioned for someone to come forward.

"Your Excellency High Priest, all of you here are people of stature, and they are also important figures in the Spya Empire, of course, you don't need to pick your words so clearly. Dean Lorenzo smiled and said, "We have to find a way to prevent the reputation of the temple from being tarnished." ”

"Yes, yes, of course. ”

"The national thief Lu Man is in your hands!" Dean Lorenzo picked up the water glass and raised his eyes to look at the high priest who pretended to be confused: "You can ask your subordinates to hand him over to the soldiers waiting outside, then our arrival today can be regarded as an ordinary visit." ”

After listening to the abbot's words, the high priest smiled noncommittally. He owes his body. The eyes looked at His Majesty Cohen: "Your Highness the Divine Knight." As far as the position of the temple is concerned, no matter how great the sins of the secular man are, he is also a citizen of the Light God Clan. As priests, we have an obligation to redeem Him. ”

Cohen tilted his head and ignored him.

"Your Excellency High Priest, this man's crime is so heinous that the temple can no longer shelter him. Dean Lorenzo put down the cup in his hand: "You should know the current situation in your heart, and we don't want to have any unhappiness with the temple." ”

"The dean's words are true. I couldn't agree more, in fact, the temple has always had a close relationship with the Al Qeda family. The high priest saw that Cohen did not speak at all, so he turned his head to the abbot: "Yes, this person is in the temple right now. We also know a little bit about what he did...... But can the Divine Blessing Knight hear about the construction of our temple?"

"If it's just a building yì, of course, the more the merrier. ”

"I wonder how the Divine Blessing Knight is going to punish this man?" the high priest smiled and said, "Yes, he is guilty, but he is still a nobleman. We certainly hope that he will maintain the dignity of a nobleman. ”

"We will take your comments seriously. The dean nodded and replied, "But I can't promise anything right now, you know, the final decision is in the hands of the Blessed Knight." ”

"Please also ask Your Excellency the Divine Knight to betray me personally. The high priest asked Cohen, "This is him—he told you on my behalf." If you're going to end his life, he wants to 'die laughing'. Personally, I would certainly like to receive a positive answer from you. ”

Cohen looked at the High Priest with a puzzled look. The high priest did not know what to do, so he could only keep his mouth shut. Of all the people present, only the General Staff Officer knew the reason for His Majesty's doubts.

"陛xià, the so-called 'laughing death', is a way to die without pain. The General Staff officer leaned forward and bit Cohen's ear: "There are many ways to do it......

Cohen was relieved and nodded to the dean.

"Okay, the Bless Knight agreed. The stone in Dean Lorenzo's heart fell to the ground: "Surrender someone!"

The high priest turned around and gave a few words, and a young priest ran away. After a while, the sleeping Lu Man was handed over to the Guards, and the General Staff Officer personally identified that it was indeed Lu Man.

There were thirty people who were handed over with Lu Man, all of whom were Lu Man's henchmen except for three concubines and personal guards, and five of them were intelligence agents on Cohen's side who were lurking around Lu Man.

All of them were unconscious, apparently hypnotized by the White Priests—and in the end, Luman was betrayed by his master.

"Oh, the high priest is wise. Seeing a large group of people unconscious on the ground, Cohen spoke for the first time: "I knew we were coming, and I got everything ready." ”

"Where, where. The high priest's mouth was still modest: "How can I fight against the Divine Blessed Knight?"

"Well, with a high priest like you, things will be easier in the future. Cohen patted the high priest on the shoulder affectionately: "I knew this, how good it was for you to have someone inform me, I was offended just now." ”

"It's okay, it's okay......"

"You give me face, of course I have to give you face. His Majesty Cohen smiled: "Just now, the soldiers accidentally injured someone in the front yard...... Gather the priests together, and I will say a few words for them. ”

"No need, the Blessed Knights are busy......"

"And don't give me face?"

"Don't dare, I'll arrange it. "In fact, having the apology of the Blessed Knight is a very face-saving thing in itself, and the high priest is not sincere in refusing it.

"You're doing me a great favor, it's a small thing!" Cohen raised his leg and walked out, "Let's go together!"

The Holy Capital Temple is huge, with nearly a thousand priests up and down, and it will take a little time to gather. After a few casual conversations with the high priest, His Majesty Cohen made an excuse and sat in the carriage with the abbot.

"Your Majesty's table today is very good. As soon as he got into the carriage, Dean Lorenzo praised Cohen: "It's a great step forward to be willing to put down your posture at the right time, and don't say it too explicit when you speak......

"Speech?" "What kind of speech?"

Dean Lorenzo was taken aback, and was about to retort when the guards had already escorted the carriage and set off.

The priests had assembled in the square, but the high priest could not find Cohen, and waited and waited until a fierce officer.

"I don't know when the Divine Bless Knight will ......" The high priest stepped forward to ask where Cohen was, but was pushed away by the officer's palm, and he sat on the ground.

"The commander has an order!" The officer stood on the podium: "The priests of the Holy Capital Temple are blessed with divine grace, but they do not distinguish between right and wrong, black and white are reversed, they spread rebellious remarks in the rebellion, and advocate the orthodoxy of the national thieves, they have violated the will of the Protoss and betrayed the trust of the Protoss—now it is decided to take all of them into custody and wait for the Protoss to send someone to punish them!

The surrounding soldiers pounced, and the priests panicked......

Hell Island, the palace of the Dark Lord.

After reporting the latest situation of the Sibia Empire to the Dark Demon Lord, the prostrate demon general left the main hall on his knees. With a slight smile on his lips, the Dark Lord looked at his two daughters calmly.

The eldest princess looked at her sister. (To be continued......)
