Shi Yan glanced at the two people lying there, especially the unconscious Eleventh Princess Tina. This cute little girl had a blood clot on her forehead, her hair was messy, and her face was pale. Her lips were faintly purple, clearly slightly poisoned.
Even with the bearded man's protection, as a normal person, she could not avoid being brushed by the poisonous smoke.
Seeing that Tina was not in good shape, Stone finally steeled his heart, and turned the yellow wooden ring on his middle finger.
Bzzt!
The ring instantly glowed with a faint yellow light.
"Aiyaya, I didn't think you would actually dare to contact me? I'm really surprised. "A sharp female voice came from the ring.
"Miss Nesat … I really have no other choice." Stone smiled bitterly as he answered.
*****
Garon's face was dark, his hand pressed on the armrest of his chair.
"I don't need you to help me block evil intentions." He said mildly, "Move aside, Child."
"She's different from totem users." Child slowly moved aside, and that little girl had completely disappeared.
Instead, it was Grand Duke Cody who narrowed his eyes, and looked over.
The two of them looked at each other, and saw an inexplicable look in each other's eyes.
At the same time, Garon and he both averted their gazes.
"Different? What's different? "
The First Princess and the Fourth Prince were fighting to win the support of the nobles below, constantly showing off and giving promises.
Garon and Child conversed softly in their seats.
Child stood on Garon's left again.
"I don't know either." He seemed to be thinking about how to explain. After a moment of silence, he spoke again.
"Our existence, is different from normal people. A lot of differences. "
Garon's gaze was sharp, and he scanned Grand Duke Cody's surroundings, but did not find any trace of that little girl.
"Interesting, I'm getting more and more interested in that little fellow just now …" He was faintly getting excited.
"She chose that person as her imprint." Child suddenly pointed at Grand Duke Cody.
"Imprint? What's that? "
"It's a kind of symbiotic relationship, if we want to use our powers, we have to sign an imprint with someone." Child explained much more clearly this time. "That's all I can remember. I can't remember anything else."
"Don't worry. You'll find out in the future." Garon smiled, calmed his emotions, and turned his attention back to the venue.
At this moment, a huge white oval mirror was suspended in the air above the venue.
Images of the sea of monsters in the distance appeared in the mirror. Countless monsters rushed into the land around the Imperial Capital and burned into white torches, quickly dispersing into black ashes.
Gradually, some of the stronger monsters began to retreat.
Although the nest leaders were not very intelligent, they could still instinctively avoid danger. As the Nest Master retreated, the monsters in the Nest also retreated in droves.
As the monsters continued to retreat, waves of cheers could be heard from the audience below.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Because the mood in the hall was too intense, they couldn't suppress it for the time being, so they had to take a break.
Veska, who was on the high seat, stood up and said something to the three armies in a low voice with a serious expression.
Duke Benoc and the First Princess stood together, chatting happily about something.
The Fourth Prince was being questioned closely by the nobles below.
Instead, it was Grand Duke Cody who stood up and walked towards Garon.
Garon also stood up.
"Your Grace, I just saw that little guy behind you. He's really cute. "He smiled and extended his hand.
The two of them shook hands.
Hearing Garon's words, a sharp light flashed through Cody's eyes.
"I didn't think you were also a Listener's imprint. In all these years, the number of imprints I've seen can be counted on one hand. I thought no one else would know this secret."
"Oh? What secret? "Garon looked confused.
"You don't know?" Cody was slightly taken aback.
"Should I know?" Garon asked back.
"Can you show me the imprint on your hand?" Cody paused, then made a request.
Garon was about to reply when he suddenly felt his right hand being grabbed by Child.
Suddenly, he felt a burning sensation on the back of his hand. This feeling only appeared for a moment, then quickly disappeared.
Garon looked towards Child. Seeing him shake his head slightly.
"Sorry, looks like I was rude." Cody instantly smiled, and without saying anything more, he turned back to his seat and sat down.
Only then did Garon raise his right hand to take a look.
He saw that on the back of his right hand, there was a tiny red dot, like a tiny round red mole, as if red ink had been lightly tapped on the back of his hand.
"What is this?"
"An imprint." Child answered honestly, "I heard that guy's question just now, and accidentally imprinted it on your hand."
"What's the use of this?" Garon was speechless.
Child's eyes showed a troubled look.
"I don't know either, this is the first time I've imprinted on someone. Anyway, different imprinted people will receive certain benefits, but these benefits are easily absorbed by others of the same kind. After absorbing it, the successful person's ability will continue to grow stronger. "
"You have to be careful." Child added, "It seems like this imprint can let you enter the world I can hear."
"The world you can hear?" Garon's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, he inexplicably thought of the Secret Technique World before he transmigrated.
"Also, you have to protect me." Child hurriedly continued, "That little girl just now wanted to steal my ability."
"Alright, alright, I'll protect you." Garon patted Child's head. "Although I'm still not sure what's going on."
"Sure enough, choosing you was the right choice!" Child grinned as he took out a plum from his pocket. The plum was strangely a little black, and he threw it into his mouth, chewing loudly.
"Do you want it?" He took out another handful of plums and spread them on his hand.
Garon looked at these plums, they were all round, with thin skin and thick flesh, looking fresh and juicy.
But when he thought of the strawberry from last time, he suddenly lost his appetite.
"Forget it, you eat it yourself."
Coming back to his senses.
The hall had gradually quieted down.
The First Princess spoke again.
"In today's meeting, as the representative of the royal family, I hereby announce that the Kovitan Empire's Parliament is hereby established!!"
Whoosh!!!
Thunderous applause.
Everyone in the hall applauded vigorously.
Then it was the allocation of seats. With the threat removed, everyone's mood was much more relaxed. The Parliament's voting seats were allocated according to the ratio of power. No one had any objections.
The four major powers: the First Princess and Benoc, the Fourth Prince and Cody, Garon and Edin, and the small alliance. These four powers were the fundamental power that decided the current situation in the Kingdom. So they split eighty percent of the votes evenly.
Garon and Edin got twenty votes, which was about ten votes each, and the remaining twenty votes were split among the small and medium nobles, who came to vote as their representatives.
This way, the basic structure was set.
Although it looked very fair on the surface, but in reality, the ones with the biggest advantage were Benoc and Cody. As dukes, they had many relatives under them, and a large number of children and nephews of the nobles, which made up a large proportion of the normal middle nobles. They could greatly affect the final twenty votes of the public.
But anyway, Garon didn't have any intention of fighting for power, as long as he lived comfortably, it was fine. Power came from power, it was common in any world. He only needed to increase his power, and his power would naturally increase, and become stronger.
Finally, the meeting ended. Everyone left the meeting, and the door to the venue opened with a bang.
Everyone stood up.
Garon brought the child and the four Black Fire Guards to the side door.
"Palace Master." Suddenly, the First Princess' voice came from behind.
Garon turned around, and saw the First Princess walking over leisurely. Her black low-cut dress hugged her slender waist tightly, and accentuated her perky breasts. Her slender legs were faintly discernible between the hem of her dress, and were about to split to the base of her thighs. It gave off a pure sexual allure.
"First Princess? What's the matter? "Garon bowed slightly.
"Can't I talk to you if there's nothing?" The First Princess showed a slight hint of resentment. She approached Garon lightly, her body leaning forward, the tip of her nose almost touching Garon's chin. The tip of her perky breasts brushed lightly across Garon's chest.
"What I said earlier still counts …" A voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz came into Garon's ears.
After the First Princess finished speaking, she walked away with her servants with light steps.
Grand Duke Benoc smiled ambiguously as he nodded at Garen, before leaving with his men.
"Boss, don't touch that woman." Child's voice came from behind. "There's something wrong with that woman."
"She's using this to control so many experts to serve her, it would be strange if there wasn't a problem." Garon nodded in understanding. "Let's go, this time we've confirmed the current situation in Kovitan."
The situation in the Kingdom had stabilized, and it would definitely lead to the stability of the surrounding areas, and the fleeing citizens in the other areas of the defense line that were getting more and more panicked would also gradually settle down. However, after the invasion of the monsters this time, the crops that had just been planted would probably all be wasted, and the food issue would probably be the biggest problem now.
Garon suddenly thought of Beckstone and the others, he had always used Beckstone as the standard to judge the progress of history, and used that to see where history had reached.
In the original history, when the Obscuro Society rose and the Royal Family fell, because of the continuous wars and chaos, as well as the invasion of the monsters, although the Obscuro Society succeeded, the citizens also fell into the abyss of despair. Food and water had to be purified before they could be consumed, and everything was polluted.
A large number of citizens starved to death because they couldn't afford the expensive food.
At this time, the biggest advantage of the Terraflor Society was finally revealed.
Their strong control over plants allowed them to have unparalleled cheap crops and food, and the rice and various fruits and vegetables that they produced won the support of the masses.
"I wonder if Ivycius' men have found Beckstone and the others." In the original history, Beckstone and the others had originally escaped the Royal Palace successfully, and didn't suffer such heavy injuries, but they met the Poison Hag from the Secret Service, and were heavily poisoned.
Now, he didn't know if they would still meet that Dark Nashat.
"Is there anyone left at the headquarters?" Garon asked.
"Very few, not many." Child answered honestly.
"Let's go take a look." If they could meet that Dark Nashat fellow, it would be a good way to settle the previous grudge.
