Part 3.
Agares sighed. "Aroin, if you hadn't stopped me, I would've thought of a way to kill those old guys."
Aroin continued calmly, "If you can advance another level, I'll let you go."
"Easier said than done." Agares was also a little discouraged. He was a genius, but there was experience to learn from the advancement of a Magic Shooter. He had never heard of an assassin reaching the ninth level or higher.
"Your Majesty, the Kushui Prefecture is on the verge of leaving the sea. Although our fleet completely annihilated the enemy's warships, our transport ships were all destroyed. This shows that the Kushui Prefecture is capable of building a powerful fleet. It's better to destroy them as soon as possible. According to the news from Sacred Rock City, the nobles of Qinyin strongly support Rex. Great Liang City's supplies have piled up like a mountain. If we don't attack from another direction, we can only waste time on the coast. "
"Aroin, do you know why I want to marry Rex?"
Aroin shook his head. Anyone who could guess his brother's thoughts must be a top-level mage, no different from a god.
"The Qinyin people are courageous and smart enough. If I have a child with someone like Rex, it must be a flawless genius, unlike you and me, each with our flaws. If I have a queen, it must be a Qinyin person. Allying with the Tanggulas Empire is a disgrace to me. "
"I'm relieved to hear that," Aroin replied lightly. This younger brother of his had never done things according to the rules. Perhaps he really wanted to marry a member of the Qinyin Royal Family, but since Agares said that the alliance with the Tanggulas Empire was a disgrace, it was very likely that it would suddenly become a reality.
The Cloud Flow nobles were willing to ally. They had lost half of the Titan Duchy. If not for the Red River defense line, the Tanggulas people would have entered the Cloud Flow Empire.
"Well, then make a decision for me. I'm not going to meet their emissary." Agares waved his hand to stop the singers from performing and drove them out of the hall. The maids also left obediently. Aroin stopped one of them, picked up the finger on the table, and gave it to her.
The maids were used to seeing bloody scenes, so they left with the finger. This was because Aro had asked for a favor from the nobleman. With the magician's treatment, the finger could still be reattached. If he was detained here in Agares, the nobleman would be crippled.
There were only the palace guards left in the hall, all of whom were Agares's trusted aides. Only then did Aroin say: "The southern nobles' attitude towards the alliance doesn't matter. In any case, the Tanggulas can't threaten them. However, the border nobles were worried that once they formed an alliance, half of the Titan Duchy would be lost forever. Among the nobles in the imperial capital, there are those who support the south and those who support the north. "
The hall became cold and gloomy. Agares' face darkened as he held a fruit knife in his hand. The silver knife flipped between his fingers, cutting the air with a strong tremor.
"Will the Tanggulas people return half a Titan to me?"
"I can't, but I can help you seize the Bitter Water Prefecture."
"Aroin, if I were to mobilize the elites of the royal family, wouldn't we be able to take down the Bitter Water Commandery?"
"The Tanggulas people will launch suicidal attacks along the Red River. At that time, the nobles will change their attitude and ask us to form an alliance with the Tanggulas people."
"So, these people should all be killed!" Agares fiercely stabbed the knife in his hand into the bone china plate. The porcelain plate, which could defend against alchemy crossbows, was pierced by a soft silver knife, but it didn't split open.
"Your Majesty, isn't the Qinyin Empire the same? When the old emperor died, the people below were in chaos. The north and the south are not in harmony, and the new emperor can't control the situation. We have to be patient and wait for the royal fleet to recover. Those southern nobles will still have to be obedient. "
"That's the only way. However, the matter of attacking Great Liang City must continue to let the nobles contribute. No matter what level of troops they send, the number must not be less than 1.2 million. Even if it's to die, let them come up with people to fill this hole. I'm going to Black Snake Island. Without the Purgatory Snake, my attack won't pose any threat to the Golden Sword Saint. There are too many people watching me inside and outside the palace. I can't be at ease as an emperor. "
"Hey, you go. Let the First Prince supervise the country. I'll handle the government affairs."
"First Prince, alright. Anyway, he's uncle's only son. If he dares to do anything unusual, you can kill him and completely cut off his bloodline."
Aroin nodded in agreement. He raised his cup and poured a cup of sake for his brother. "Your Majesty, when you go to Black Snake Island this time, take all my personal guards with you. Their equipment has been changed. Also, the Qinyin people have built a submersible warship. I'm afraid that the southern nobles have also bought the blueprint. Take the Saint Emperor warship with you. With a mobile magic tower, the submersible warship can't do anything to you."
After the discussion between the two brothers, Agares returned to the harem. Two palace maids came forward and helped him change his clothes.
"Your Majesty, did the Prince agree to let you leave?" asked an unusually fair female official as she took off Agares's clothes.
"Yes, get me the equipment. I'm going to take it this time."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The other female official chuckled and quickened her steps to the dark room.
In the blink of an eye, Agares was naked. The female official who stayed had Agares sit on a bench. She gently stroked Agares's chest muscles and slowly sat on Agares's body.
"What are you doing!" Agares raised his eyebrows and scolded.
The female official giggled. Her arms were already around Agares's back. She gently scratched Agares with her nails and whispered in his ear, "Of course I'm going to rape Your Majesty."
"How dare you!" Agares continued to scold, but his eyes were bursting with desire. These two female officials had been with him since childhood. Not only were they loyal, but they were also trained to his taste. He spent ten times more time with these two female officials than with the Imperial Concubine.
"No matter how bold I am, I'm not as bold as Your Majesty." The female official's body sank down. Her curved eyebrows suddenly straightened and a high-pitched voice came from her throat. Her nails scratched hard on Agares's back. Ten bloody marks appeared on Agares's back.
"Ugh …" Agares groaned. Such a small injury wouldn't cause him any pain at all. It would only make his desire stronger. The strangest thing was that after the bloody marks appeared on his back, they quickly healed. Each royal family of the four empires had a unique secret technique. It was not magic or sword energy, but it had a strange effect.
"Your Majesty, I'm going to eat you." The female official panted on Agares's body and said incoherently.
"How?" In Agares's eyes, his pupils slowly turned from purple to blood red.
"I'm going to eat you like this. I'm going to eat you whole." The female official suddenly exerted force, but she suddenly screamed and leaned back. Agares grabbed her arm and glanced up to see another female official come in with his collection of equipment. Instead of stopping, he responded even more forcefully.
The tall female official saw this scene and just smiled gently. She put the equipment aside, pulled open the brocade of her long skirt, and walked toward the entangled man and woman.
There was another moan in the palace, but the palace guards outside were not surprised. They looked indifferently at the shadows of the trees in the courtyard. The shadows were very short. It was noon. The sun was blazing, and the wind blew through the palace guards' brocade robes. They were sweating profusely.
The Cloud Flow Imperial Capital had more than 20 names. Every time the emperor changed, the new emperor would change the name of the city. The people of Cloud Flow were not surprised. In private, they only called the imperial capital Cloud Mist City.
The huge Cloud Mist City was home to tens of millions of people. It was a great miracle on this continent. Even Holy Rock City did not have so many people. Only Cloud Flow, with its rich resources and developed water supply, could allow so many people to live together.
In the north of the city, there was a recruitment site. Two young mercenaries looked at the recruitment sign and stopped.
The male mercenary did not wear a helmet. He had a head of light golden hair and a devilishly beautiful appearance. The female mercenary beside him had a gentle and beautiful appearance. The two of them looked good, and their equipment seemed to be of high quality. It was just that they looked tired.
"You two, do you want to sign up?" The conscription officer saw the two mercenaries patrolling the area, so he pointed at them and shouted rudely. He could get ten copper coins for every soldier he recruited. Many a little makes a mickle, and this profession could also make money. Now that His Majesty had issued a recruitment order to attack the Bitter Water Prefecture, and there were no conditions. He could recruit a few hundred people a day, which was a few thousand copper coins!
The male mercenary said, "Sir, this recruitment seems to be different from before. Will it be disbanded after three to five months?"
"What do you know? His Majesty wants to attack the Bitter Water Prefecture and snatch their king to be the empress. This kind of war will take a few years, unless Qin Yin is too weak. You, do you have the guts? "
The female mercenary sighed, "Cang Hong, let's sign up."
"Sarah, Cloud Flow's army is going to …"
"Don't worry so much. It's better to be a soldier than a mercenary." The female mercenary called Sarah used her finger to poke the mercenary called Cang Hong from behind. These two were the survivors of the Grey Falcon Mercenary Corps who had fled to Cloud Flow after parting with Salin. Cang Hong and Sarah were obviously not doing well. Cloud Flow didn't need mercenaries, and they couldn't take on big business.
Fortunately, they had some savings before parting with Salin. These two mercenaries weren't willing to do low-level jobs, so they had no choice but to find a new job. They didn't dare to sell the things Salin gave them, so they hid them in secret places.
