"The City of Heaven is shaking. Do you think this kind of news can still be concealed? I know it will only happen sooner or later. What does it matter if you tell me now?"
"Actually, it's nothing to tell you? But most people don't know the news now, so please don't spread it randomly!"
Glancing at Diablo's dazzling blond hair, the man in black who was caught and found that he couldn't break free with his own strength didn't want to keep it a secret anymore.
"Tell me! My circle is very small, and there is no place to spread it if I want to."
"It's the Kudo clan, they've rebelled!"
Even the man in black, who was in charge of secret intelligence and had seen many important things, was gnashing his teeth when he told Diablo at this moment, as if he wanted to eat the Kudo tribe alive.
"If you rebel, you rebel. What's so strange about this? There are still few ethnic groups who rebel in the empire? There is no shortage of Kudo clan!"
Diablo shook his head, looking as if he was in debt, but his words made the man in black's face extremely exciting. He never thought that this existence with royal blood would actually Say something like this.
"How can the betrayal of the Kudo clan be compared with the betrayal of other races?"
"Why is it different?" Diablo realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, but in the final analysis, he still knew too little about this empire, and blamed him for being obsessed with the knowledge and technology of this empire before. , without concern for the constitution of the empire.
"The empire treated the Kudo clan so favorably, and even allowed them to send an army to defend the empire's homeland together with the royal fleet, but now they turned against each other and even tried to sneak attack the empire's homeland, Sky City, this kind of behavior..."
"Well, it's really too much, the behavior of the Kudou clan must be severely punished!"
Diablo, who probably guessed something, was also filled with righteous indignation, and at the same time let go of the man in black.
Then he found an opportunity to leave the banquet place, which was gradually restoring order, and entered the city of heaven, which was beginning to become chaotic. This city, which was previously singing and dancing, was filled with melodious music, finally became panic at this time In chaos, the residents of the city finally felt the shadow of war.
And I don't know what's going on. It didn't take long for the residents of this city to figure out what was going on with the shock they just felt. It was almost the same. There were voices scolding the Kudou clan everywhere in the streets and alleys. .
Not because of anything else, but because this race is one of the nine direct vassal races appointed by the imperial family, and it ranks first.
In the subconscious mind of the imperial people, the Kudo clan should be their most loyal vassals. Even if all races betrayed, this race should not betray them.Because the treatment given to the Kudo clan by the empire is too generous.
At this time, Diablo, who is so rich, can hear voices scolding the Kudou clan everywhere in his ears, scolding this white-eyed wolf who can't eat enough.No one can tolerate a captive dog suddenly turning its head and giving itself a bite at the most critical moment when it is under siege.
Chapter 286 The Wrath of the Empress
When the giant inheriting light and fire came out of the world for the first time, the first intelligent group they encountered was a kind of vine life form with self-awareness. Most likely, it was because this kind of plant life form moved slowly, so there was no threat. The giants contacted this intelligent group with a friendly gesture, and imparted knowledge to this intelligent group with an extremely backward civilization.
Under the leadership of giants, this group of plants with wisdom developed rapidly under extremely accidental circumstances. In order to better develop civilization, this group of special plant life began to try to leave the earth and imitate giants. shape, rebuilding his own body.
Then, when the "Hulk" whose body was made of extremely special vines appeared, the Navarroland Empire, which had already embarked on the road of expansion, had its first vassal race.
But this plant race, which clumsily imitates their life form, has one or another shortcoming, but they also have advantages that flesh and blood life can't match, even if only a dead branch is left, they can get sufficient nutrition Under the premise, it can also be quickly regenerated.
Then, the Hulk named Kudo by the giants became the vanguard of the expansion of the Navarroland Empire. Their existence reduced the number of casualties of the giants of the empire, and also made countless intelligent races fear.
In the long years, the Hulk of the Kudo tribe followed the empire firmly, conquered with the expanding fleet of the empire, made countless contributions, but also paid great casualties.
But such efforts were rewarded by the giants of the empire. In addition to the origin of the original race, they also obtained 120 habitats that could perfectly allow them to reproduce freely.
The generosity and benevolence of the Navarroland Empire made these plant life who possessed wisdom by chance become the strongest race under the empire. Not only did they have their own breeding habitat, but even with the help of the giants of the empire, They have developed their own plant battleship - a composite plant that can absorb and store solar energy.
And the empire is very reassured and trusts in this vassal race cultivated by itself, and even assigns these hulks the task of guarding the mainland of the empire as a show of favor.
Before the Kudo clan mobilized the fleet that was supposed to guard the mainland of the empire and attacked the capital of the empire, Sky City, none of the giants of the empire would think that the loyal Kudo clan would betray them, even if the empire's rebels are everywhere now.
Therefore, when the lives of the residents of the imperial capital were threatened, some of them still did not believe that this loyal Kudo Take would betray or even attack them.
However, after confirming the news, some residents cursed and became very angry. They even took to the streets to go to the imperial palace where Her Majesty lived, demanding that this race that betrayed them be completely wiped out from the world, and let them Pay the due price.
"The traitor must die, the empire must win!"
"Traitors must die!"
Even if Diablo was in the princess' palace, he could still hear the cries echoing from all over the streets and alleys. The residents of the imperial capital who were addicted to the melodious sounds finally threatened their lives at this moment. angry.
"I thought that the residents of the imperial capital now only know how to eat and wait to die. I'm a little surprised that there is such a side."
Even living in the palace, Diablo can overlook the city suspended in the sky from the perspective of God. Looking at the giants filling the streets and buildings of the city of heaven, he felt a little eye-opening.
"Don't have any expectations of these people. They just react as normal creatures should when their lives are threatened. Look at how many of these guys are clamoring to join the army to take revenge on the Kudou clan."
Regarding the turmoil in Sky City at this time, Ophelia who called Diablo over was very indifferent, even a little indifferent, because she had already figured out what kind of mentality the bottom residents of the Navaroran Empire had.
In the long period of prosperity and peace, this generation of empire residents has basically been raised and abandoned, and there is no need to expect them to be of much use. Their only use is to breed the next generation and create fresh blood for the empire. .
"Master Ophelia, how can you say that, there are still many bloody people in the empire."
Hearing Ophelia belittle the people so much, how could the eldest princess Agnes bear it.
"Use facts to refute my words. Tell me, in the current imperial army, except for the ordinary soldiers who are recruited forcibly, how many are grassroots civilians who voluntarily join the army."
Ophelia looked at Agnes quietly, which made the eldest princess speechless, because she had read related reports, and now nearly [-]% of the grassroots soldiers in the imperial army are forcibly recruited.
It cannot be said that there are no imperial people who volunteer to join the army. After all, there are all kinds of people wherever the population base is, but compared to the total number of imperial troops, they are so small that they are a bit ridiculous.
"Don't pay attention to these appearances, Agnes!"
Seeing the eldest princess who was so speechless by her question, Ophelia was not interested in continuing to argue with her. It is an irrefutable fact that the middle-aged and young generations of the empire are waste, and they can only count on the next generation.
"You should pay attention to the impact of this incident on you. If there is no accident, the empire should respond to the petitions of these citizens and dispatch a fleet to wipe out the betrayed Kudo clan."
"Indeed, it won't be long before the counter-insurgency fleet responsible for suppressing and exterminating the Kudou clan should be formed quickly!"
Although the eldest princess Agnes is a little weak and cowardly, she is not a fool. She is very clear about the far-reaching impact this attack will have on the empire.
The Empire has been standing in the sky for an unknown how long, and the City of Sky has been shaken. These big figures who were originally aloof felt threatened in this attack. Will show unprecedented efficiency.
"So, what do you want to do?" Diablo next to him frowned when he heard this.
"Of course it is to find a way to get the commander-in-chief of this anti-rebel army. This time, the military industry department of the empire will never dare to provide those shoddy fleets."
Agnes said without thinking, her eyes showed ambition, she urgently needed a war to restore his reputation lost in that shameful defeat.
"It's not that I look down on you, but that you just ruined a fleet, and now you want to take command of a counter-insurgency regiment. Your thinking is too beautiful!"
"Why can't I get the command? I am the first heir to the empire!"
Being so shocked by Diablo, Princess Agnes's complexion immediately collapsed.
"A little bit of self-knowledge, okay? How much prestige is left for your number one heir, don't you have any points?"
"There is no need to think about the position of the commander-in-chief. It would be nice to get a part of the command."
When Agnes wanted to refute, Ophelia gave a fatal blow, ruthlessly piercing the beautiful fantasy of the princess.
"you……"
Agnes immediately stood up angrily, pointing with trembling fingers at Diablo and Ophelia who were looking at him with a smile on their faces.
"Bully me! Hmph!"
The eldest princess who said the last three words blushed immediately, shook her hand, hummed softly, and left the conference room angrily.
"This guy, when did he become like this?"
Seeing this young daughter's posture, Diablo's gaze suddenly became weird compared to the eldest princess who was more and more abnormal at first.
"Isn't she always like this?"
"Are you sure such a guy can become a queen?"
Diablo is becoming less and less confident in Agnes, because the real ruler of the empire, the empress who should have died long ago and passed the position to the first heir, is still holding on, and has already It explains a lot of problems.
"Just try your best. Even if you fail, it doesn't matter. We can use her influence to take root in the empire. It's not a loss anyway."
"But this..."
Just when Diablo was about to say something, Diablo, who was outside the palace filled with spiritual power, noticed with some surprise that the City of Sky began to vibrate again.
But this time it was different from the tremors caused by previous attacks. This was the tremors generated by some kind of huge machinery in the city, and the source of the tremors was the Imperial Palace surrounded by the residents of the Imperial Capital.
"what happened?"
The sudden change not only made Diablo stop talking, but even Ophelia, who was listening carefully, showed doubts on her face, but soon, the doubts on Ophelia's face turned serious. .
Because there is a majestic and vast energy that makes her feel a deadly threat is gathering.
"Is this going to be serious?"
Diablo also has no intention of staying in the palace at this time, because his spiritual power can no longer see the scene he really wants to spy on, and the majestic and vast power surging in the imperial palace resists everything that does not belong to him. strength.
Without words, Diablo and Ophelia walked together and looked at the imperial palace that had been shrouded in light. The bright light could be easily seen even if it was tens of kilometers apart.
boom--
The beam of light, so thick and huge that Diablo felt a little suffocated, shot up into the sky, and the sky became dark in an instant. Even the sun hanging obliquely on the dome of the sky looked so pale at this moment.
The light rising from the imperial palace was so bright and brilliant that everything paled in front of him, and the inhabitants of the empire that originally surrounded the underground palace were also speechless at this time, and there was no more People dare to make a noise.
Chapter 287 The Call from the Starry Sky
Rumbling--
Looking at the bright beam of light that went straight into the sky and couldn't see the end, Diablo seemed to vaguely see that among the dark stars, there was a huge celestial body pierced by this beam of light, and it exploded amidst the violent roar and crackling sound. broken.
And after that huge celestial body was shattered, it was majestic, like a pillar of light supporting the mountain of heaven began to shrink rapidly, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, and the imperial palace, which was originally shrouded in light, also restored its previous appearance The posture seems so ordinary.
"Star Destroyer!"
Although everything had returned to calm, Diablo, who had witnessed a star being crushed by a certain existence, couldn't calm down at this moment. He looked up at the shattered meteorite group in the sky, and his blood was surging.
"Ophelia!"
Maybe it was because the gap was too huge, so Diablo quickly recovered from the shock of a star being shattered. He looked at the motionless eldest wife standing beside him, looking at the imperial palace, Calling her name.
"Well! What's the matter?"
"How do you feel?" Diablo asked the eldest wife how she felt, because the realm was higher than him, so his eldest wife might be able to see something that he couldn't.
"I can't do it." Under Diablo's suspicious eyes, Ophelia shook her head slowly, her eyes full of regret.
"No, I didn't ask if you could do the same thing, I asked what did you see? Is this the rumored queen's attack on her own, or is she using the city of heaven to launch an attack? ?”
Seeing the eldest wife who was entangled there, Diablo didn't know what to say to her.
"It should be that she launched the attack with the help of this city. If she can launch an attack of this scale by herself, then she should be an eternal and immortal existence, and it is impossible for her to perish."
"That's it, that's okay."
Diablo breathed a sigh of relief. Since the attack was launched with the help of a foreign object, it means that he will be able to launch such an attack one day, and there is nothing to be amazed or envious of.
"Although I rely on external objects, I can't guide and gather such a majestic force in a short period of time. With my own strength alone, this queen may still be above me."
"Really?" Diablo's face showed surprise.
After seeing the useless appearance of Agnes, the first heir of the empire, it is hard to believe that the queen of the empire would have such a powerful force, it is not like the same species at all.
"Is this the time I'm joking with you?"
"This is too unbelievable, but it's no wonder that Her Majesty is unwilling to accept the final outcome. If it were me, I would definitely hold on."
An emperor whose life is not long, looking at a crumbling empire that is already showing signs of decline, and looking at heirs who are becoming more and more useless, one can imagine the despair in his heart.
"Diablo, I want to go into the underground palace to see the queen with my own eyes!"
"Don't mess around!" Hearing what the eldest wife said, Diablo was taken aback, "Didn't you just say that? That queen may be stronger than you, and she is still in the imperial palace , there is no arrangement, I have your last name, what do you want to do when you go in and meet her?"
"After you have seen such power, do you still think that such an emperor will not live long?"
"Uh, do you think the news that the Empress is about to die is false?"
Although possessing great power does not necessarily guarantee a long lifespan, there is no doubt that the stronger an existence is, the longer its lifespan will be. No matter how you think about it, the queen with a broken star cannot be a short-lived existence .
"I'm not sure, maybe the power he possesses didn't come from his own practice, and it has great hidden dangers, so the final outcome will definitely be the end."
"You're just guessing!"
"So I have to find a way to enter the imperial palace once and meet the legendary empress!"
"Aren't you afraid of being suppressed by her? We are a great threat to her empire."
"So we are looking for a safe, foolproof opportunity!"
"No, it's you, not us!" Diablo shook his head directly, he didn't want to die with Ophelia.
"timid."
"I'm called steady! It's okay to see what kind of queen, after we help Agnes up, I can see enough every day!"
