Chapter 617: Reinhardt's Speech
A week is not long, but it is not short.
It is short because it is not easy to establish a dimensional passage for the demons of the Marquis title in just one week, even for the Delos Empire, which is extremely rich in human and material resources.
The "Sword Emperor" Yuren had to do this by forcibly collecting the wealth possessed by many nobles.
Because everyone was already worried about Midi's arrival, such an atrocity made the situation in the Golden Imperial Capital suddenly become more turbulent.
However, the "Sword Emperor" Yu Lun has experienced so many ups and downs, so he is naturally the type whose mind is determined to the extreme.
Now that he has made the decision to rely on the power of the demon to fight back, then, no matter what rumors the outside world has, he will not waver in any way.
It's just that, even so, if you want to complete the dimensional passage within a week, you have to hurry.
And to say long, it is for Midi's "Falcon Regiment".
In a week's time, under the basic situation, it is impossible to defeat even the portal fortress of the Delos Empire.
In fact, in the past three hundred years, not a single army has dared to launch an attack on the Delos Empire itself.
However, when the "Sword Emperor" Yulun finally began to summon the Demon Marquis, Midi had already broken through all the way and directly occupied the entire western region of the empire.
Previously, it only took him one morning to vaporize the portal fortress of the Delos Empire and its fifteen thousand defenders into light particles with the "Radiant Domain".
In the afternoon, the earl in the far west of the empire surrendered immediately, choosing to submit to Midi.
And now, under the leadership of Midi, the Falcon Regiment is even more non-stop, along a straight marching route, directly towards the Golden Imperial Capital.
Along the way, whether it is a well-guarded level, a fortress that has been in operation for many years, or a so-called elite division, nothing can stop them.
Later, when various news spread about Midi's "Radiant Domain" and Agares's "Thousand Swords Domain", many of the rulers of the imperial cities even sent envoys in advance to meet Midi's army.
And by the time the Hayabusa regiment arrived in their city, all kinds of supplies were ready.
It can be said that at this point, the empire is already like its own territory for Midi.
Therefore, although it was only a week, Midi had already led a large army across most of the empire and came directly to the city of the Golden Imperial Capital!
"There, it is Vetaron, the capital of the Delos Empire, and it is worthy of the nickname of the Golden Imperial Capital. ”
Standing on a hill, looking out at the towering walls and magnificent buildings in the distance, Midi couldn't help but sigh.
It's early in the morning, and the golden sunlight is cascading down the streets of Vetaron, and the countless intricately carved roofs reflect the light, and from a distance, it looks like a sparkling golden lake.
It is precisely because of this beautiful scenery in the morning, coupled with the royal palace complex decorated with gold leaf in the center of the imperial capital, that Vertaron is named the "Golden Imperial Capital".
It's just that, with the arrival of Midi and the Falcon group, this gorgeous beauty also seems to be covered with a layer of haze, with a little taste of slaughter.
However, even if he knew that the culprit of this war, the "Sword Emperor" Yulun, was in the city, Midi was not in a hurry to attack.
On the contrary, according to the custom of these days, he first sent an envoy to shout for surrender.
And this time, Midi directly sent the fourth prince, Reinhardt.
"Father, you have made too many mistakes over the years, and the biggest mistake is the attack on the Kingdom of Belmar. I don't think the Delos Empire should continue on the path of aggression, because to do so would only bring ruin to the empire itself. It's time for some change in this empire, and it's time for you to step down from the throne!
The fourth prince stood on a huge platform that was artificially built and dozens of meters high, and shouted directly into the city.
Under the power of magic, his voice spread to every corner of the Golden Imperial Capital, and to the ears of every citizen of the Imperial Capital.
Of course, this righteous words have also reached the ears of many noble lords and important ministers.
This is not a surrender at all.
This is a naked forced palace.
Reinhardt's meaning was very clear.
In other words, the meaning of Midi, who supported Prince Reinhardt, was very clear.
Only when the Delos Empire changes dynasties and puts those who sit on his throne will this war end, and the bloody revenge and torture of Midi will end!
Suddenly, when Reinhardt's impassioned exhortation, or rather speech, was finished, the entire Golden Imperial Capital began to waver.
Those noble lords who originally claimed to be loyal to the empire began to connect silently.
The important ministers, who were all respectful when they met the emperor, began to exchange opinions in a whisper.
It can be said that in the entire Golden Imperial Capital, an opinion that "it seems good to let the fourth prince serve as the emperor" has been spreading in the dark.
But of course, Midric never expected that these noble lords and important ministers who were like grass on the wall would really be able to overthrow the famous "Sword Emperor" Yulun.
The reason why he did this was just to prepare for the "aftermath".
As long as at this moment, a more favorable wind direction is formed for the fourth prince Reinhardt, then there is no doubt that after Midi really ousts the "Sword Emperor" Yulun from power, the pressure on Reinhardt to come to power will be much less.
At the very least, it is more plausible to say that he came to power not as a usurpation, but as an attempt to bring the already erroneous empire back on track.
In this way, even if Midi leaves the Arad Continent and goes to the Heavenly Realm, the situation between the Belmar Kingdom and the Delos Empire will be relatively stable.
This is Midi's real consideration.
Of course, in order to achieve this qiē, you must first defeat the legendary "Sword Emperor" Yu Lun.
However, for this, Midi has no worries at all.
"What kind of demons do you think these Imperials will summon?"
Looking at the golden imperial capital of Valita, where the atmosphere was bleak, Midi smiled and asked.
"Judging from the strength we have shown so far, if the other party wants to be safe, they will probably summon one or two demon marquises, right? ”
"Sword Demon" Agareth chuckled and replied lightly.
When he was on the Dragon Battlefield, Midi had already killed a demon marquis when he was only at the peak of level 75 and had not yet become a second awakener.
Moreover, it was not an ordinary demon marquis, but the second apostle's "tear-eyed" Herder's subordinates, who had the same "composite domain" as Agares.
Even such a terrible opponent has already been slain by Midi.
Now, after Midi was successfully promoted to the Second Awakening powerhouse, there are only a few demon marquises, what is there to worry about?
In fact, Agareth also wished that a few more demon marquis would be summoned on the other side, so that he might be able to give himself a chance to awaken a second time in the fierce battle.
However, in response to Agares's expectations, Midi shook his head.
"At most, there is only one demon marquis, it's not that the empire's financial resources are not enough, it's just that we don't have much time left for the 'Sword Emperor' Yu Lun, and besides, his life is not easy. ”
And just as Midi speculated, in just one week, and the thoughts of the noble lords and important ministers had been dissolved, so when he came to the city with the Hayabusa army, the call of the Empire was still not completed.
"I've already given you everything you need, how long will it take to complete the summoning?"
Yu Lun looked at the demon Viscount Bo Fei with a cold gaze and asked in a cold voice.
"In fact, the dimensional passage has been completed, but it will take a little time to summon. ”
Bofi replied immediately.
This demon also has a bitterness that he can't say, why didn't he want to summon the demon marquis earlier?
But the problem is that compared to when the empire had the advantage, at this moment, the supply of all kinds of materials is a little delayed, even if he has an edict written by the "Sword Emperor" Yu Lun himself.
This has somewhat slowed down the construction of the dimensional passage.
If Midi suddenly broke into the center of the Golden Imperial Capital at this moment, and then a "Glowlight Domain" was knocked down, it would be equivalent to all the previous efforts being wasted.
It can be said that sometimes, the difference is just a little bit of time.
"Your Majesty, please be sure to delay a little time, otherwise it will ......"
Bofi gritted his teeth and whispered.
"What? You want me to stall?"
Yoren almost didn't get angry, the last thing he wanted to see at the moment was Midi and Reinhardt who had betrayed him.
However, Yuren also knew that if he really let Midi attack at this time, then his last hole card would be lost immediately.
In desperation, this once invincible "Sword Emperor" can only choose to compromise at this moment.
Soon, after Reinhardt finished shouting, Midi saw that the imperial capital did not react, and was about to launch several attacks first, there was a commotion in the central square of the imperial capital.
A man wrapped in delicate armor and wearing a crown on his head slowly walked out of the palace gates.
On either side of him were rows of elite guards.
Behind him, there is the magnificent royal palace.
At his waist, there was a long sword that made people feel extremely sharp even if it was hidden in a sheath.
And the moment this man walked out of the palace, immediately, a sword aura soared into the sky, and even the Falcon Regiment that was far away outside the city felt a powerful and sharp sense of oppression at this moment, rushing towards him.
"Sword Emperor" Yu Lun finally appeared.
