The battle in front of the palace quickly entered a chaotic phase. The formations on both sides were very messy. It was almost like a melee fight, like a gang fight. However, it was clear that the first and second legions were starting to gain the upper hand. Firstly, they had the advantage in numbers, and there was nothing they could do about it. Secondly, although the palace guards were well-equipped, there was a huge gap between them and the elite soldiers who had fought their way through the battlefield. They already couldn't defeat the palace guards one-on-one, and now they had to fight one-on-one. There was nothing they could do about it.
So after a little fighting, the palace guards on this side began to be pushed back, but there was no place to retreat. There was only the palace hall, so slowly everyone began to retreat into the hall.
Of course, Li Huailin also followed Anthony up, but Li Huailin found himself really embarrassed. All the soldiers on the battlefield were green allies, and there was not a single red enemy target. The soldiers on this side were also friendly to him, so no one attacked him at all. He couldn't attack the soldiers on the opposite side either. Their HP was too high. Li Huailin's slash dealt more than 1000 damage, but it only took 2% to 3% of the enemy's HP. In other words, he would need 30 or 40 slashes to kill a random soldier. The efficiency was so low that it made people's hair stand on end.
Li Huailin looked to the side and saw a small soldier from the 2nd Division killing an enemy with just three or four slashes. Li Huailin facepalmed. What the hell was this? Even a small soldier was ten times stronger than him.
"Saimos, are you dead?" The bored Li Huailin began to think about other things on the battlefield. No one was attacking him anyway, so he was very safe.
"Commander, I'm here!" Saimos killed a soldier from the side, then came to Li Huailin's side with blood all over his body. Although he looked a little tired, his eyes were full of excitement. He was definitely a battle maniac.
"Send some people to guard the inner gate of the palace. Don't let anyone in. It seems that the royal guards are now Filmus' people. There are only two or three thousand people here. I think reinforcements will come soon. You go guard the gate," said Li Huailin.
"Yes, Commander." Saimos immediately went to look for his captain to announce the Legion Leader's order.
"Wow, what level are these soldiers? Why are their HP so high? They don't seem to have healed at all." Hongyan ran to Li Huailin's side to drink some water. Initially, she wanted to help, but there was nothing she could do. Even after healing for a long time, she did not manage to heal much of a soldier. However, one slash from the enemy was equivalent to ten times of healing. It was simply a waste of mana. Hence, after healing a few times, she returned.
"Let's rest here. It has nothing to do with us," Li Huailin casually found a place to sit down and said.
"Brother-in-law, you're too powerful. We're attacking the imperial palace!" Hongyan said happily as she drank some water. "It's a pity that the guild leader isn't online today. This is so fun! I knew it would be fun following Brother-in-law. "
"We're going to kill the king later," Li Huailin said casually.
"Eh? We can kill the king? " This was the first time Hongyan heard about Li Huailin's plan. She said in surprise, "But if the king dies, won't there be no king?"
"Naturally, there will be someone else," Li Huailin said.
"Then can brother-in-law be a king?" Hongyan asked as she drank some water.
"I'm too lazy to do it. It's too troublesome." Li Huailin waved his hand and said, "Do you want to be a queen? If so, I can try to help you. "
"Eh? Queen? Me? " Hongyan was stunned as she drank some water. She then shook her head. "I don't want to be a queen either. It's more interesting to play with brother-in-law. If brother-in-law is a king, then I'll be a queen!"
"How can there be a king and a queen? If I'm the king, then you can only be a queen." Li Huailin did not think too much and blurted out.
"Ah?" Hongyan was stunned as she drank some water. Then, she suddenly blushed. "Queen … Queen? Isn't … isn't that brother-in-law's wife? "
"Ahem …" Li Huailin also realized that he had said something wrong. "Anyway, there can't be two emperors in a country."
"Oh …" Hongyan nodded as she drank some water. In fact, she was still thinking about what had just happened. What does brother-in-law mean … Does he like me … But brother-in-law likes me … What should I do with my cousin …
As she was thinking, Misty Rain walked over. He wanted to help, but when he hit the enemy with a fireball, it did not even hurt a hair. So, he came to look for Hongyan to drink some water.
"The soldiers here are at least level 70 …" Misty Rain said as he walked. "We really can't do anything to them. Moreover, attacking them will reduce a lot of Reputation in the main city and the favorability of the Royal Guards."
"Ah! Cousin! " Hongyan, who was drinking water, was shocked when she heard Misty Rain's voice. She was just thinking about her cousin when she suddenly appeared. This made Hongyan a little embarrassed to look at her while drinking water.
"What are you doing? Why are you so surprised?" Misty Rain had no idea what Hongyan was thinking about while drinking water. He casually walked up to the railing next to Li Huailin and leaned on it. He then said to Li Huailin, "I've informed Sister Bloodstain and Streamer to come over for the quest. The guild leader is not online yet. It seems like he won't be able to make it in time."
"Oh, the quest to send the princess back to the Imperial City." Li Huailin nodded. "Tell them to hurry up. Otherwise, they won't be able to come in."
"I have a feeling that something big is going to happen today," Misty Rain said. "Are they really here to send the princess back to the Imperial City?"
"Eh? I haven't told you that I'm going to kill the king? "Li Huailin asked.
"…" Misty Rain was stunned for a moment. He then suddenly realized something. "Wait … did you just say that you're going to kill the king?"
"Yes." Li Huailin nodded. "What's the point of just sending an NPC back? If we're going to play, let's play it big. Drink water, don't you think so?"
"Yes, yes. Killing the king is fun!" Hongyan immediately agreed as she drank water.
"Oh my god … …" Misty Rain facepalmed, "Are you addicted to being on the front page? It's not even been a month since the server opened, and you want to kill the king of the Terran Empire? "
"Yes, praise me," Li Huailin said proudly.
"…" Misty Rain held his forehead. "I knew something big was going to happen today. I didn't expect it to be this big. Are you confident?"
"I'm trying." Li Huailin pointed to the surroundings. "I've done everything I can. Now, it's time to leave the rest to fate."
"The Second Legion that you're leading now belongs to the Empire's army. If they know that you're here to kill the king, will they rebel?" Hongyan asked as she drank water.
"It'll be fine. If they hear that I'm plotting a rebellion, they'll definitely start beating drums and setting off firecrackers. The Second Legion is known as the symbol of rebellion," Li Huailin said.
"Is that so? The current king is so unpopular. "Misty Rain didn't really understand the current situation in the empire, so she nodded her head and said.
"We'll see in a while," Li Huailin said with a smile.
While they were talking, the battle here was coming to an end. The soldiers of the 2nd and 1st Legions were too ferocious, so much so that the palace guards here basically couldn't fight back. They were forced to retreat all the way. Now, most of the guards were forced into the palace hall, and the rest were basically lying on the ground. The palace guards were now guarding the entrance of the palace hall. Because the door was relatively small, they were able to block the troops of the First Legion and Second Legion from outside.
Suddenly, a soldier ran to Li Huailin and reported to Li Huailin, "Sir Huailin, the Legion Commander is looking for you."
"Oh, it seems that the battle is over," Li Huailin said as he stood up. "Let's go up and take a look."
Stepping over the bodies of the Royal Guards, Li Huailin climbed to the entrance of the palace hall at the top of the stairs. Now that the two sides had temporarily stopped fighting, they looked at each other through the door. Anthony was standing at the front, but the people inside did not dare to take a few steps forward to assassinate him.
"What do we do now, Huailin?" Seeing Li Huailin come up, Anthony turned around and asked, "These guys are hiding inside and not coming out. Do we attack? The door is too small, it's hard to get in. "
"Phew …" Li Huailin let out a breath and shouted to the soldiers inside, "People inside, listen up. You're surrounded. Put down your weapons and come out to surrender. If you continue to resist, I'll shoot you with a rocket launcher!"
"What's the point of shouting like that?" Hongyan, who was drinking water, said.
"Well, I don't like to kill people. I'm giving them a way out," Li Huailin said. "Hurry up and come out to surrender, and we can still be friends. Otherwise, don't blame me for going crazy."
"Hold them off! Reinforcements will be here soon! We're trying to force the Emperor to abdicate. Isn't surrendering a death sentence? " Marquis Filmte's voice suddenly came from inside, but he didn't see anyone. However, this shout calmed the soldiers who were a little shaken. Indeed, it was impossible to survive a rebellion. What was the point of surrendering?
"I'm Fantine, the fourth princess of the Empire. I promise you that if you surrender now, I'll let you live." Fantine, who was in the crowd, suddenly stood out. Seeing that Li Huailin seemed to be trying to persuade them to surrender, she immediately came out to help.
"Look, it's really the fourth princess!" The soldiers of the Royal Guards naturally knew Fantine, and they immediately recognized her.
"Princess, is what you said true?"
"Of course it's false. How can there be such a good thing?" Li Huailin suddenly interrupted.
"Eh?" Fantine looked at Li Huailin in surprise. Anthony, who was beside her, was also stunned. Even if you're lying, you don't have to say it now. At least wait until after you surrender, then kill them secretly.
"You've failed in your rebellion, and you still want to surrender? We've also rebelled long ago, and we all look down on you. " Li Huailin waved his hand and shouted to the people behind him, "Guards, block the entrance and burn everyone inside to death."
