Allen half knelt on the ground and handed the Thunder Fury to a personal guard of the King's Sword before looking at Tangerio on the platform. "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. It happened so suddenly that I could only cut off Earl Forn's palm, causing the Earl to be injured. Please punish me, Your Majesty. "
Tangerio raised his hand and waved it. Forn activated the Thunder Fury with his own Origin Energy. If it was him, he would probably only be able to cut off the old count's palm. Otherwise, if he attacked the Thunder Fury or the Count himself, it would be possible for the Thunder Fury to be activated ahead of time. At that time, it would be uncontrollable. Using one of Forn's palms to exchange for the lives of dozens of people in His Highness, Tangerio asked himself which was more important. Of course, he would not punish Allen for this.
Allen bowed his head and thanked him, then retreated and left. Tangerio looked at Forn, who was clutching his broken wrist. He opened his mouth to say something, but he was unable to say anything. At this moment, Prime Minister Nabott stood up and said respectfully to the platform, "Your Majesty, please leave first."
The Dean of the Privy Council and the Grand Judge also suggested that Tangerio leave at the same time. The Great Emperor could only sigh and stand up to leave the platform. The King's Hand Guard in the Triumph Palace followed closely behind the King. After the Great Emperor left, Nabott turned to look at Forn and said, "Do you have anything to say?"
The old count's face was ashen as he sat on the ground with a bitter smile on his face. Allen glanced at him and felt a sense of relief in his smile. Allen frowned, as if things were not as simple as they seemed. The key was the change in Earl Forn's attitude. Even though he had other views on the matter of cutting off his troops, he had gone from supporting Nabott a few years ago to attacking Nabott with thunder fury today. This was a 180-degree change in attitude, which was very abnormal.
At this moment, a knight shouted, "Someone come and take this old man away."
"He actually let Old Forn bring in the Thunder Fury. Isn't this defense too lax?"
"We almost lost our lives. We must punish him severely!"
The Sir said all at once. The main door of the Triumph Palace opened and guards strode in. However, they were no longer the King's Sword Guards, but the Silverfrost Guards with silver armor and white cloaks. The imperial guards responsible for the safety of the Imperial Palace swarmed in. There were dozens of them. The Iron Guards parted on both sides, and another group of seven walked in front of Count Fron. The leader was an Iron Guard captain. He waved his hand and said, "Take the Count away."
Two Knight helped the Count up, while the other four guarded him from the front and back. The six of them quickly left. The Iron Guard captain looked at Nabott and the others and said, "Please leave first. Leave this place to us."
Naibote nodded. "Interrogate him carefully. Forun is not like that. He may have his reasons."
"Don't worry, my lord. We won't let go of any clues."
Only then did the Prime Minister feel relieved and left with the other ministers. After they left, the other Sir also wanted to leave. Since the hearing couldn't continue, there was no need for them to stay. Unexpectedly, as soon as someone reached the entrance of the main hall, two Guardians crossed their swords and blocked his way. The Sir immediately roared, "What's going on? Step back!"
The captain of the Iron Guards in the hall said lightly, "I'm afraid that won't do."
"What do you mean? Do you think we're accomplices? "
"Even the Iron Frost Guards can't do this. We are the Earls of the Empire!"
The crowd immediately exploded, especially Count Brad. At this time, this Sir, who called himself "His Majesty's Parrot", was extremely "heroic". He didn't say anything in succession and almost pulled up his sleeves to teach the Iron Guard captain a lesson. All the Silver Frost Guards, including the captain, maintained restraint, but used their swords to separate the crowd coldly and mechanically. There was no lack of Sir among these people who had good combat strength, but not all of them were like Brad, who had an empty title but no combat strength. Those people released their Qi, and the entire Triumph Palace was immediately filled with swords drawn.
Julian walked up to the platform and shouted, "Everyone, stop!"
Allen helped from the side, releasing his Qi and activating the engraving. Instantly, the temperature of the hall rose, and a powerful aura rushed up with a scorching flame intent. Everyone's eyes turned red, and sparks drifted down. At this moment, on the platform, Allen's power was like a great furnace, instantly suppressing everyone's Qi, making it impossible for people to deliberately ignore it. Thus, everyone naturally looked towards the platform.
Seeing that he had successfully attracted everyone's attention, Allen withdrew some of his power, but it still gave people a feeling that he had yet to release it. That invisible tension made those who wanted to make trouble not dare to act rashly, for fear of incurring Allen's attack. Julian nodded, took a step forward, and said, "Sirs, please be patient. What happened today is really of great importance. No wonder the Silver Frost Guards have to be cautious. After all, they are responsible for the safety of the Twilight Castle and the Imperial Palace. They can't be careless. "
With Julian's words, the captain of the Iron Frost Guards also followed his tone and said, "It is indeed as the Second Prince said, Count Foron was actually able to bring the Fury of Thunder into the Triumph Palace. This is no small matter. Sirs, please cooperate with our investigation. This will take up some of your time. After we ask some questions, we will naturally let you leave. "
He then said to the platform, "Your Highness Julian, you can leave first."
Julian shook his head. "I also want to find out how Count Foron brought the Fury of Thunder into the palace."
Since the Second Prince had said so, the captain of the Iron Guards did not force him to leave. After being suppressed by Allen's aura, the Second Prince also expressed his stance. No matter how dissatisfied the people in the hall were, they didn't dare to object at this time. Otherwise, it would be no different from admitting to being an accomplice. At this time, they needed to cooperate with the Iron Guards to clear their suspicions.
Tangerio was walking towards the Hall of Monarch Descent, which was his residence. All the kings of the past lived in this hall, and he was naturally no exception. Today, a good hearing had been disrupted, and the Great Emperor's expression was not happy. His grayish-blue eyes were filled with seriousness. The Great Emperor had experienced many storms in his life, so how could he not see that Count Foron's actions today were strange? Thinking back to Old Foron's expression when he left, Tangerio used his amazing memory to freeze the scene in his mind at a certain moment.
At that moment, a special look flashed through Old Foron's eyes. That was called fear. How could a count who planned to cause an explosion in the Triumph Palace be afraid? Unless he didn't want to.
Who was coerced by Old Foron?
Tangerio suddenly stopped and narrowed his eyes as he looked at the corridor ahead. It was almost noon, and the sun was bright, pouring down from the sky, dragging out the shadows of stone pillars in the corridor. On the left side of the corridor was a garden with hundreds of flowers in full bloom. Normally, at this time, there would be bees buzzing in the flowers, but at this moment, it was abnormally quiet. The Great Emperor smiled coldly, "How long do you plan to hide? Although I'm curious how you sneaked in. But since you're here, get out of here! "
Suddenly, a powerful aura soared into the sky.
The light in the corridor and the garden became incomparably dim, as if dark clouds had gathered in the sky. However, the sky was still clear, and the illusion of darkness in space was because it was suppressed by the other party's might. Tangerio was naturally unaffected, and the King's Sword personal guards beside him also dispersed their Origin Energy radiance a moment later, resisting the heavy pressure of the incoming person's might. Personal Guard Captain Erin shouted, "Disperse, defensive formation!"
The twenty-six guards immediately dispersed and protected Tangerio in the center. At this moment, a hundred steps away from the crowd, the shadow of a pillar twisted, and then a figure slowly walked out from behind the shadow. The other party seemed to have appeared between shadows and matter, as if there was another space between the two. This figure was tall and nearly three meters tall, giving him an astonishing sense of oppression. His entire body was wrapped in a dark-colored cloak with a tattered edge, revealing only half of his face.
There was a pair of pitch-black eyes without white eyes on that face. Occasionally, blue flames would rise inside, flashing like ice. One side of his head was covered with gray-white hair, the other was shaved clean, and it was inlaid with metal armor. There were several short cones on the armor, and lightning snakes jumped at the tips of the cones. A hoarse and unpleasant voice sounded from the cloak covering his nose, "Human King, you will be buried here today. This is the victory of the shadows. Darkness will descend on this land again, as it used to."
"Oh, just you? The three warlords of the Shadow Duchy, His Excellency Repian of Chaos? "
Tangerio's face was calm, but his words caused Guard Captain Erin's heart to tighten. The Shadow Duchy had three Grand Warlords, and each of them was a terrifying expert. Chaos Repian was one of them. It was said that this Grand Warlord was better at hiding and assassinating than fighting on the battlefield. However, Erin had never thought that the Grand Warlord of the Shadow Duchy would actually sneak into the palace. There was nothing more terrifying than this.
The outsider expert named Repian stretched out his hand and pressed down on his cloak. The cloak on his body that was used to conceal his figure turned into ashes and scattered, revealing Repian's strange body. Erin's eyes widened. The outsider expert in the corridor was simply a mixture of life and metal. His figure was tall but not strong. His skin that was exposed to the air was light gray. It was unknown if it was a racial characteristic or some other reason. Repian's face was wrapped in a metal plate from his nose down. From the edge of the metal plate and his muscles, it seemed to be embedded in it and became an inseparable part of Repian's body.
Apart from that, the Grand Warlord's left arm, right chest, and right leg all flowed with a metallic luster. They did not look like armor, but a part of Repian's body. Now, Erin understood why Repian had the name "Chaos". His name was already reflected in this body.
At this moment, Repian raised his hand and pointed at Tangerio. Suddenly, figures shrouded in black mist flashed out from the shadows of the corridor. Those figures all lit up with scarlet fluorescence. These shadows had strange shapes and different heights. The only thing they had in common was that the killing intent they emitted was as sharp as a sharp blade!
Erin raised his sword and pointed, "The King's Sword, fight! Don't let these dirty fellows touch His Majesty! " The figures that broke through the black mist came from different outsiders of the Shadow Duchy, but they had a common name, the Dark Dagger. This was an assassination unit commanded by Repian. In an instant, Tangerio's King's Sword had already clashed with the Dark Dagger. Captain Erin's Origin Energy burst forth as he charged towards Repian.
