In the room, Qin Ranran's cold voice rang in Shirō Makino's ears once more.
"There's no need to talk about that. Also, I advise you to let me go, and I'll pretend nothing happened. This is the inner palace, the harem. I've already spread the news. It won't be long before someone comes to capture you. "
"Hehehe …" The woman's laughter rang out. "Do you think I care about those people? Capture me … in your next life! "
As she spoke, Shirō Makino and the others who were hiding behind the fake mountain suddenly saw the door of the palace open. Then, the woman in her late twenties walked out gracefully. She was still wearing the clothes of a palace maid.
After looking around, a cold smile appeared on his face. He walked in another direction and soon disappeared.
After a while, there was still no movement in the room. Shirō Makino glanced at Lin Zijin. Lin Zijin nodded and pulled Ji Chae Yi inside.
Two minutes later, the two of them helped Qin Ranran out.
When she saw Shirō Makino, Qin Ranran smiled bitterly. "I'm sorry, I forgot that it's not convenient for you to enter the palace. I was in a hurry and sent a message to you and the emperor."
Shirō Makino finally understood why Li Ying agreed to let them be brought here so quickly.
"Your mental force has been sealed?" Bai Muye looked at Qin Ranran and asked.
Qin Ranran nodded.
Shirō Makino walked forward and Qin Ranran opened up her spiritual sea, allowing Shirō Makino's spiritual power to enter her spiritual sea.
After a long time, Shirō Makino finally broke the seal on Qin Ranran's spiritual power.
When she finally regained her freedom, Qin Ranran looked at Shirō Makino in surprise. "Xiao Bai, your spiritual power is so high now?"
Then, she added, "Let's hurry up and leave. We have to let the emperor know about this."
After listening to Qin Ranran's explanation, Shirō Makino and the others finally understood what had happened.
Because of her identity, it was inconvenient for Qin Ranran to appear at the banquet. Otherwise, if a famous singer like her appeared as a guest, it would cause a lot of unnecessary suspicion.
She herself did not like the occasion.
However, her identity was not a secret within the royal family, so she came to see the Empress.
The Empress, who had always lived in seclusion, was also very fond of Qin Ranran. The two of them chatted until late at night.
When Qin Ranran was about to leave, she suddenly met a palace maid who offered to bring her out of the palace.
Qin Ranran didn't think much of it and followed the palace maid.
In the end, while she was unprepared, the other party directly invaded her spiritual sea, instantly sealed her, and then brought her to this empty palace.
Although her mental power was sealed, her movements were not restricted. That was why Qin Ranran had the opportunity to send out two messages.
"The other party is extremely fearless. In fact, the reason why she left earlier wasn't because she was afraid of anything, but because she didn't want to get into a conflict here," said Qin Ranran with a bitter smile.
She didn't tell them about her Protoss Bloodline, but she knew that Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin should know about it.
At this time, a few people came to the person who had just led the way. When the person saw Qin Ranran, he was relieved.
"Princess … are you alright?" The person who had led the way clearly knew Qin Ranran's identity and asked out of concern.
"I'm fine, but this harem needs to be thoroughly investigated. Also, there are still loopholes in the security here …" Qin Ranran reminded him.
Actually, there was no need for her reminder. The person who had led the way had not been idling and was already doing this.
The fact that a Protoss Bloodline had infiltrated the harem of the Zulong Empire sounded too unbelievable and frightening.
If the other party had malicious intentions, would even the Empress Dowager be in danger?
Even if the Empress Dowager had powerful guards around her, how many people could defend against a sudden assassination?
The person sent a message to Emperor Li Ying. Soon, he looked at Shirō Makino and said, "Marquis Bai, His Majesty wants you to go over now. Princess Qin, His Majesty wants you to go as well. "
Qin Ranran shook her head and said, "Forget it, I won't be going. I'll go book a restaurant first. Xiao Bai, after you're done here, let's catch up."
Shirō Makino could tell that Qin Ranran had a lot to talk to him about. He nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll see you later!"
"See you later." Qin Ranran waved goodbye.
On the way to the hall, Lin Zijin moved closer to Shirō Makino and said softly, "Brother, Sister Qin is quite nice."
Shirō Makino looked at her warily and asked, "What do you mean?"
"I told you to kidnap her back!" Lin Zijin said.
The one who was leading the way at the front staggered slightly.
Ji Chae Yi and Shan Gu were expressionless.
Si Yin glanced at Lin Zijin strangely, not understanding why Lin Zijin would have such a hobby.
"Don't spout nonsense." Shirō Makino glared at Lin Zijin.
"With two sisters together, my long life won't be lonely!" Lin Zijin pursed her lips and looked at Shirō Makino. "I'm doing this for your own good, Brother!"
"If you're really doing this for my own good, then be good and stop causing trouble." Shirō Makino said softly with a serious look on his face.
Tsk.
Lin Zijin rolled her eyes and turned her head to the side, but her eyes were full of smiles.
Brother is not bad, he wasn't charmed by that vixen Sister Qin, hehe.
When they arrived at the hall, Shirō Makino and the others could feel the tense atmosphere the moment they entered.
The entire auditorium was dead silent.
The dining tables had been removed and replaced by a huge oval table in the middle. The Emperor sat in the middle, and beside him sat Sun Yan and a group of cabinet ministers and dignitaries.
Prince Regent Li Yu, who had not planned to appear at the banquet tonight, also appeared and sat beside the Emperor.
Opposite him was a group of strangers dressed in luxurious clothes.
Shirō Makino looked at them and noticed that each of them had a vertical eye in between their brows.
Protoss indeed!
Around the long oval table were rows of chairs.
Everyone who attended the banquet tonight was there, sitting in those chairs with serious expressions on their faces.
When Shirō Makino and the others entered, many turned to look at them.
At this time, two people came over. One of them led Shirō Makino to the round table alone.
The other person led Lin Zijin and the others to the empty seats behind the round table.
They're already at the table?
Shirō Makino was a little surprised, and even felt a little nervous.
It was not that he had never been to such a grand occasion before, but today's occasion was a little too grand.
What were these Protoss here for?
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't they only meet on the battlefield?
Did they have to come and inform us politely before the battle began?
Shirō Makino thought to himself as he followed behind the guide. Suddenly, he remembered Zi Guang, who was sealed in the Talisman Artist's book.
"Hey, wake up!"
He used his Psychic Energy to forcibly wake Zi Guang, who had fallen into a deep sleep.
"Uh … what time is it?"
After Zi Guang was awakened, he seemed to be in a daze.
His physical body was shattered, leaving only his Psychic Energy form. After being sealed, he lost track of time and space.
If he did not let himself fall into a deep sleep, he would probably become a lunatic after a long time.
At this time, Shirō Makino was led to sit at the edge of the oval table.
Although it seemed to be a corner, Shirō Makino's powerful and sensitive Psychic Energy had already sensed that the Protoss opposite him, as well as the countless people behind him, were all staring at him.
Sigh, I'm still too high-profile!
He sighed in his heart.
His face, however, was full of calmness.
He couldn't let others laugh at him.
At this time, Zi Guang asked again, "Why did you wake me up?"
Shirō Makino used his Psychic Energy to communicate, "Some of your Protoss came to the Ancestral Dragon Imperial Star Imperial City. It doesn't look like … they're here to fight, but to negotiate."
"Negotiate? Nonsense! " Zi Guang denied Shirō Makino's statement with disdain. "The Protoss will never negotiate with you humans!"
"You sound so sure. Before you set off, you thought you would never be captured alive," Shirō Makino said sarcastically.
Zi Guang: "…"
This bastard touched my sore spot. He was simply too cruel!
"Tell me what those people look like," he said after a moment of silence.
Then, Shirō Makino described the appearance of those people one by one.
Zi Guang said, "I got it. They must really be here to negotiate."
"Why?" Shirō Makino was a little puzzled. How could he make such a conclusion just by looking?
"Because these people are the doves of the Protoss," Zi Guang said calmly. God's Son of God said indifferently, "The forces behind them don't wish to fight to the death with the humans."
"Heh," Shirō Makino sneered, "Will the masters behind you agree?"
"As long as they can achieve the ultimate goal of suppression, no one will care about the process," Zi Guang said.
At this time, one of the Protoss on the opposite side spoke. Shirō Makino also temporarily stopped the conversation with Zi Guang.
"You humans have a saying, it's better to come at the right time than to come early. It seems that we came at the right time today, just in time for the coronation of the new emperor of the Zulong Empire. On behalf of the Protoss, I congratulate His Majesty the Ancestral Dragon Emperor. "
Prime Minister Sun Yan, who was beside Li Ying, said calmly, "Thank you for your congratulations, but His Majesty wants to know what your intentions are."
On the other side of Li Ying, Prince Regent Li Yu had a piece of paper in front of him. A pen was spinning in his hand. There was a touch of mockery in his eyes.
In his eyes, the group of Protoss on the opposite side deserved to die.
Holding a sword, he would definitely kill every Protoss he saw.
As long as the Protoss appeared in the Zulong Empire, none of them were good people!
Including Qin Ranran's mother!
If it wasn't for her, how would his brother die so young?
He doted on Qin Ranran, but it didn't mean that he had a good impression of the Protoss.
However, he wouldn't fall out with them on such an occasion. He also wanted to figure out the purpose of these Protoss bastards.
Didn't they just open a dimensional space and fight without any communication in the past?
Let's see what new tricks they can play this time.
A bunch of trash!
The young Protoss on the opposite side looked to be in his thirties or forties. There was a blue crystal embedded in between his eyebrows. The crystal seemed to be alive, giving off a particularly demonic feeling.
He smiled slightly, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lan. I was once a Son of God of the Protoss. Of course, I'm the previous generation's Son of God. You might not have heard of me, but it doesn't matter. You will slowly get to know me in the future. Because from today onwards, I will be responsible for all communication between the Protoss and the human race. "
"I also have to thank Your Majesty, the Ancestral Dragon Emperor, for giving me such a courteous reception and personally attending this meeting. This gives me great confidence in what will happen next."
Li Ying looked at him and said directly, "I'm only here at the right time. In terms of identity, as the envoy of the Protoss, there will naturally be people who will contact you. So, don't misunderstand. I will not participate in such an occasion a second time. "
Lan smiled slightly, "Then I'm even more honored. This is the only time Your Majesty has given it to me."
Li Ying frowned. He was a little annoyed, but he didn't say anything.
He was the Emperor after all!
He couldn't scold people as he pleased like before.
Sigh!
Melancholy!
He couldn't help but glance at Shirō Makino who was a distance away.
Although his glance was vague, many people around him saw it.
Everyone lowered their heads and understood what the Emperor meant.
However, everyone noticed that Shirō Makino had his head lowered. No one knew what he was thinking. They all sighed in their hearts. What could this young Marquis say in such an occasion?
"We humans do care about etiquette and honor. We should treat guests from afar politely. However, I hope you understand that you are not guests from afar. You can't even be considered as unwelcome guests! A group of uninvited enemies. Don't misunderstand because of our politeness. "
Bai Muye suddenly raised his head and said indifferently, "So, if you have something to say, say it quickly …"
There were four words at the end. He felt that it was a little unsightly, so he didn't say it.
However, these words were already very surprising.
The group of people sitting at the back, as well as the group of high school league champions from the Vast Sea Empire who had just quietly rushed over, all felt their blood boiling.
Even though they were at odds with each other just now, when it came to the matter of the Protoss, the three empires' attitudes were absolutely unified!
The previous generation of the Protoss, Lan, smiled slightly and didn't get angry. He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll get straight to the point!"
"It's been more than eight thousand years since the last great war."
"I believe that even if I don't say it, everyone here knows that the war between the Protoss and the humans hasn't ended yet."
"The war between the gods and the humans …"
Many people present frowned.
Shirō Makino interrupted him again. "The Three-Eyed Race, the humans … Don't speak as if you're all so noble. If you could crush us, you wouldn't be here today. So, if you have anything to say, just say it. Don't talk so much nonsense! "
Vulgar!
Impolite!
The few Protoss sitting at one side of the long oval table were all furious.
How could such a good-looking person speak so rudely?
How could such a person be allowed to sit in that position?
"Who are you?"
The smile on Lan Ye's face disappeared, and he sized up Bai Muye for the first time.
So handsome!
No matter how much he disliked this person, he had to admit that he was really handsome.
The Protoss had always been confident in his appearance, but he had never seen anyone more handsome than this person.
"He is our empire's youngest Marquis, Shirō Makino." Prime Minister Sun Yan said and even gave Shirō Makino a friendly smile.
Sun Pengyuan must have said something to his father.
Shirō Makino returned the smile.
Then he said to the Protoss Envoy, Lan, "Can we continue now? Hurry up and say it, I have an appointment with someone later. "
Lan smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? That person must be a beauty, right?"
This guy is really bad!
Many people instantly had this thought in their minds.
Shirō Makino looked at him coldly and said, "Mr. Lan, in this kind of occasion, your words are very frivolous. You are different from me, I am just an ordinary person sitting here today. But you represent the entire Protoss. "
"Also," Shirō Makino looked at him and said, "don't think that your words can affect our relationship just because I just brought my girlfriend here."
Lin Zijin sat at the back and said calmly, "That's right, if my brother is willing, he can kidnap as many as he wants. I will take care of them."
Boom!
The entire hall was instantly filled with laughter.
Whether it was true or not, and whether it was appropriate or not, it really boosted the morale of the people!
It was probably only when facing the Protoss that humans could be so united.
There were no other thoughts or distracting thoughts in their minds, only one thought — kill the Protoss!
No matter what method they used, as long as they could defeat the Protoss, then everyone would feel good and happy.
"Hahaha, interesting, interesting. I originally thought that most humans were cowardly and soft, but I didn't expect there to be such a true person." Blue laughed heartily. There was no need for any amplification equipment, his voice could be heard throughout the hall.
Many people present were shocked.
God-rank!
Shirō Makino looked at Blue and felt that this person was somewhat dangerous.
If it was a one-on-one fight, it might not be this person's match.
But if the girl was included, the two of them should be enough.
"Let's cut the crap. Just now, this young Marquis Bai is right. There is no need for us to be polite, and there is no need to test each other. Just say what you want to say. "
As he spoke, Blue waved his hand, and a screen appeared above the long oval table. On the screen, a middle-aged man with three eyes appeared with a very dignified face and a very shocking aura.
His gaze fell on Li Ying, who was wearing the Emperor's regular clothes, and he was slightly stunned. "Such a young Emperor?"
Li Ying looked up and met the man's eyes. There was no fear in his eyes, and he asked, "Who are you?"
Shirō Makino described the man's appearance, and Zi Guang replied, "Among the 18 Feudal Lords, I am Lord Yougu, ranked first!"
This is an Emperor?
Shirō Makino's heart skipped a beat.
He then asked, "The ranked first Feudal Lord … is from the Dove Faction?"
Zi Guang replied, "What's so strange about that?"
At this time, on the screen, Lord Yougu had just introduced himself —
"My name is Yougu, and I am a Feudal Lord of the Protoss. There is only one reason why I sent people to the three human empires."
He looked at Li Ying. "The war eight thousand years ago not only caused great losses to humans, but also brought great harm to the Protoss."
"The war was not what we wanted."
"But the hatred has been buried deep in the hearts of our two races."
"There are also some reasons that cannot be announced. There can never be true peace between the Protoss and humans."
"Therefore, we thought of a solution. This time, our diplomatic mission has been sent to all three empires at the same time to discuss this matter."
"The three empires have all kinds of competitions since high school, and there is even a league in university. Therefore, after some discussion, we, the Protoss, have decided to solve the problem between the two races through a competition with the three empires. "
Then, the Feudal Lord smiled. "I believe that this should be an acceptable result for you humans."
As soon as this was said, there was an uproar in the hall.
Shirō Makino, who was sitting at the corner of the long oval table, was also speechless.
Another competition?
