After dealing with Kamo's matter, Chen Heng turned and looked at Hedoshiri and Haku.
"Apart from the palace, how are the other places?"
Chen Heng asked as he looked at the two of them.
"It's generally quite stable."
Hedoshiri nodded, "The various places in the palace, including the treasury and granaries, are all fine. Because we acted very quickly, we did not suffer much damage.
"Your Majesty, you can use them at any time.
"In this process, Knight Orimo played a great role."
Hedoshiri emphasized Orimo.
His identity as a former royal knight had indeed played a huge role in this matter.
If it was not for this Royal Knight, even if they could take over these places, it would have been much more troublesome.
In fact, if things had not gone well, something unexpected might have happened.
If that was the case, things would not have been good.
As such, the fact that things had gone so smoothly was largely due to Orimo's contributions.
Standing there and listening to Hedoshiri's words, Chen Heng nodded and looked at Raku.
"There were not too many disturbances in Kachi."
Meeting Chen Heng's gaze, Raku walked up and reported, "Even though there were some problems at the start, with the guards suppressing them, things quickly calmed down.
"That's good."
Chen Heng nodded and smiled, "You did very well."
"After going back, I will give you the rewards you won."
Chen Heng said calmly.
Hearing this, the two people in front of him looked delighted, and this was the same for Hedoshiri.
After all, they knew what the rewards Chen Heng was talking about were.
They could help them increase their strength.
Their own strength had already reached the second ring, and they weren't considered weak among the second rings.
With this baptism, perhaps they would be able to directly reach Three-Ring.
As for the Third Ring, this level was not considered weak even in the various churches.
Even in those powerful churches, they were able to serve as the bishop of a region. They were not weak existences.
Within the Kalo Kingdom, a Three-Ring expert was at the peak and was invincible.
If they could reach such a level, it would be a great surprise for them.
Looking at their expressions, Chen Heng smiled and did not think much of it.
He had already planned to help Hedoshiri and Luo Binghe improve their strength a long time ago. He just wanted to make use of this opportunity to put it into practice.
Hedoshiri and Ramu had been following him from the very beginning. They had always done their best for him, and there had never been any problems.
Their abilities were undoubtedly very good. Whether it was in terms of ability or personality, they were considered the best of the best.
The only thing they lacked was their own strength.
As Chen Heng continued to advance, their strength could not keep up with Chen Heng anymore, and they began to fall behind.
If this continued, they might not be able to play much of a role very soon.
After all, as Chen Heng progressed, the enemies he would have to face would become more and more powerful.
At that time, if Hedoshiri and Roland remained the same, they wouldn't be of any use at all.
As such, helping them increase their strength was a good thing for Chen Heng.
As for why they had to wait for a while and not now …
Of course, it was because he lacked divine power.
The consumption of suppressing the Dusk god item was not just for show; Chen Heng had used up almost all of his resources.
Under such circumstances, he did not have much divine power left, so he needed to wait for a while to recover.
However, this bit of time did not matter.
He was sure that Hedoshiri and Ramu did not mind.
After thinking to himself, Chen Heng turned and walked to the side, looking at the peaceful Khaqi City outside.
"Now, it's time to deal with the aftermath …"
This thought flashed through his mind, and then he silently closed his eyes.
The night quickly passed.
After that night, the chaos in Khaqi City quickly returned to normal.
Kamo used Kalimu's orders to mobilize the guards from all over the place to maintain order in all directions.
With all these actions, the order of the entire Kachi City was restored in the shortest time possible.
At least, that was how it looked on the surface.
Following that, even more shocking news came to them.
The King's daughter, Princess Guromary, had been given a position by King Kalimu and could freely come and go.
Viscount Ekdo, who had come from Hatim, had been given a position by the King and had become the Prime Minister.
This was undoubtedly a massive earthquake.
Some sharp-witted people had already realized some things. Thus, during this period of time, they were constantly running around in various places, hoping to obtain some reliable information.
In fact, many people even came to Chen Heng's manor, wanting to pay him a visit.
However, not many people were able to do as they wished; in fact, it could be said that very few people were able to do so.
After that, a lot more shocking news came out.
It was said that the Dusk Church's followers had been captured and publicly executed.
It turned out that the King had been controlled by someone, which was why he had done all sorts of wrong things and killed many nobles.
After coming to his senses, the King felt incredibly guilty, and he even shed tears in front of everyone.
Only now did everyone remember what Kalimu had been like in the past. Only then did they realize what was going on.
After this, Kalimu seemed to have returned to how he was in the past. His actions were no different from before, and he had completely changed.
This sort of behavior was incredibly gratifying.
It was said that the King had been able to recover because of Viscount Ekdo and Princess Guromary's help.
It was because of this that Viscount Ekdo had become the Prime Minister, and Princess Guromary had regained the King's favor.
Regarding this, the others did not have too many doubts.
After all, in the past, Guromary had been King Kalimu's most beloved child.
His previous cold demeanor was rather surprising.
However, it was obvious that after that, the forces led by Viscount Ekado and Princess Guromary would probably become the mainstream in the Karo Kingdom. At the very least, they would be able to dominate the situation in the Karo Kingdom for a long time.
Thinking to there, many people began to have some thoughts.
After this, the Dusk Order had completely become the target of scorn in Karo Kingdom.
Of course, their original reputation was not that great. Now, it was just that their reputation had worsened, and they had done more bad things.
The King's men thoroughly investigated the city of Kachi and found many traces of the Dusk Order's activities in Karo Kingdom. Many of the traces left behind made people shudder.
In a short period of time, many nobles who had been involved with the Dusk Order were arrested.
And a considerable number of these nobles had escaped the previous purges.
It seemed that the reason they were able to escape Kalimu's previous purges was because they were members of the Dusk Order, and they were even believers of the God of Dusk.
Therefore, the Dusk Order would not persecute them.
When the truth was exposed, everyone was furious.
One by one, those who had colluded with the Dusk Order, or were even believers of the Dusk, were arrested and tried in front of everyone.
At this time, there was a lot of news coming from outside Kachi City.
The Dusk Order had begun to act in Karo Kingdom.
Many nobles outside had been harmed by the Dusk Order and lost their lives.
In just a short period of time, the entire Karo Kingdom fell into chaos.
.....
"He actually hid so deeply?"
Within a quiet courtyard, Chen Heng read the letter in his hand. Looking at the contents, he could not help but feel surprised.
He had long since expected the Dusk Order's influence in Karo Kingdom.
However, looking at the letter in his hand, he felt that he had underestimated the extent of the Dusk Order's infiltration.
The extent of Karo Kingdom's infiltration was much more serious than he had imagined.
"This is a very normal thing …"
In front of him, Guromary sat there and poured Chen Heng a glass of fruit wine. She sighed and said, "After all, even my father was under their control, let alone others."
The King of a kingdom was the person with the most authority and power in a kingdom.
Even such a person had been manipulated by the Dusk Order in the end, let alone others.
If the Dusk Order did not have such power, Guromary felt that it would be strange.
"It doesn't count. Even if that's the case, it's still a little too exaggerated …"
Sitting upright in her seat, Guromary shook her head, as if she didn't expect the situation to be so terrible, "Even when my father was still alive, he wouldn't have known that there were so many people hiding in the Calo Kingdom."
Indeed.
Back then, when Karim was still alive, he would not have thought that this would happen.
Even more so, he would not have thought that his kingdom had long since been infiltrated to such a terrifying extent that even he, the King, had fallen to the point of being controlled by others.
However, this was the truth, and it had already happened.
"No one would have thought that this would happen."
In front of Guromary, Chen Heng shook his head and said, "Your Highness, if your father had known what would happen today, perhaps not so much would have happened."
"Not necessarily."
Guromary bitterly smiled and said, "Perhaps if my father had known the truth earlier, the Dusk Order would have acted earlier and taken control of him.
"In that case, the result would have been even worse."
Guromary was very clear about her family's strength.
The Karo Kingdom was a kingdom, but it was located in a remote area and was not very powerful.
As the royal family of the Karo Kingdom, the most power that the Karo family could mobilize was two 2-Ring experts.
This kind of strength was enough to deal with anything in the Karo Kingdom.
However, facing an existence like the Dusk Order, this kind of strength was nothing.
This was a gap in strength that could not be made up for.
As such, facing the Dusk Order, if Karim dared to do anything, he would definitely be dealt with first.
When that time came, not only would he not be able to change his fate, but he would also be dealt with prematurely.
At the end of the day, when the difference in strength reached a certain level, it would be easy to break through.
This was the case between the Karo royal family and the Dusk Order.
No matter what, as long as the Dusk Order still had their Dusk god item, they would be invincible.
After all, not everyone was like Chen Heng, who could withstand the power of a god artifact and defeat the Dusk Order's people.
Thinking to there, Guromary could not help but inwardly sigh. She looked at Chen Heng and understood how terrifying this person was.
The Dusk Order's power was something that the Karo royal family could not resist.
From a certain perspective, this Viscount Eckdo, who had defeated the Dusk Order and suppressed the god item, was the same.
In fact, compared to the Dusk Order, Viscount Eckdo was even more difficult to deal with.
After all, even though the Dusk Order was powerful, they could not be exposed.
Once their location was exposed, they would be hunted down by many people from other churches.
Viscount Eckart, on the other hand, was clean and tidy.
This was the difference between them.
"What do you plan to do now?"
Sitting there and looking at Chen Heng, Guromary hesitated for a moment before saying, "Now that you control Kamo, if you want to, the entire Karo Kingdom will be under your control …"
"Not much."
Hearing Guromary's words, Chen Heng only shook his head, his expression calm, "Now that things have developed to this point, I don't need to do anything.
"Sometimes, it's not good to be too hasty about something."
His expression was calm as he said this.
By now, Chen Heng had already ruled over the Karo Kingdom.
After all, Karim had fallen into his hands.
Even though Guromary and the others knew what was going on with Karim, to outsiders, Karim was still the same King.
He had not changed much. Even though this King's reputation had greatly declined because of what had happened before, as long as he was still the King, he could rule over the entire Karo Kingdom.
Even though this king's prestige had been greatly reduced due to the previous events, as long as he was still king, he could still control the entire Karo Kingdom.
In actuality, this King was being controlled by Chen Heng.
In actuality, Chen Heng was this Kingdom's King.
In actuality, Chen Heng was this Kingdom's Prime Minister and could represent the King in dealing with all matters in this Kingdom.
In actuality, Chen Heng was this Kingdom's Prime Minister. In name, he could represent the King and deal with all matters in this Kingdom. He had great authority.
This was just in name.
In actuality, Chen Heng's power was unimaginably great.
To put it bluntly, as long as he wanted to, the entire Kalo Kingdom could be pacified in an instant. There wouldn't be many accidents.
After all, in front of true power, nothing counted for much.
As such, from how Guromary saw it, Chen Heng truly had the power to live in the Karo Kingdom.
It was just that he had not done anything yet.
"The Karo Kingdom is now in my hands. As for the name, there is not much of a difference whether it is sooner or later," Chen Heng said calmly as he sat there.
Sitting there, Chen Heng said calmly, "Rather than doing everything right now and causing a huge storm, it's better to take it slow."
At the very least, the effects will be smaller. "
He spoke softly, voicing his thoughts.
"Let's just let Kamo stay in that position for a while longer."
"When the time is right, we'll let him step down from that position."
In such a short period of time, too many things had happened in the Karo Kingdom.
At a time like this, what the country needed the most was stability.
Only when this Kingdom regained its peace and order would it be able to unleash its full power.
Moreover, Chen Heng had some plans to carry out in this Kingdom, and many of them might offend some people.
Putting aside ordinary people, he had to be wary of the nobles and church factions in this world.
After all, behind those factions stood the most powerful faction in this world.
As such, if he wanted to reduce the pressure on himself, he needed a suitable target.
Karim was quite suitable for this.
If he had Karim do some bad things, he would be able to obtain benefits and also have a bad reputation.
In this way, all the pressure and negative voices would be directed towards the other party.
When the pressure reached a certain level, Chen Heng would act and take down the infamous King, easily obtaining a good reputation.
Chen Heng did not hide his intentions and directly told Guromary about it.
"This …"
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Guromary's gaze changed, "To be honest, with your intelligence, even if you are not a God's descendant and are just an ordinary noble, you will be able to reach the peak of power sooner or later …"
If ordinary people had Chen Heng's current strength, they would have long since been unable to endure it and would have wanted to topple everything and rule over everything.
However, Chen Heng did not do such a thing. Not only that, but he was also able to do such things from a rational perspective, making use of everyone's value.
This was quite rare.
He did not seem like a young man, and from his methods, it seemed like he was an extremely experienced elder.
"It's just a subconscious habit."
Sitting there, Chen Heng silently shook his head as he listened to Guromary's words.
No matter what he did, he had to do it from the most advantageous perspective.
In the previous simulations, Chen Heng had long since become accustomed to this.
