Chapter 631

"It's you …!?"

At this moment, Saliro's reaction could not be said to be small.

It couldn't be helped.

He simply couldn't believe that the mysterious powerhouse who had destroyed the Lefferut Family and forced him to retreat in Bigusler's house was actually such a young noble of the kingdom.

This caused Saliro's eyes to widen involuntarily as a trace of shock appeared on his face.

However, Shien was still looking at Saliro with a faint smile as he suddenly disappeared from the driver's seat of the carriage.

"…!"

Saliro's body trembled, and he was just about to move.

Unfortunately, he was ultimately still too slow.

Slap!

With a crisp slap, Shien's palm landed on Saliro's shoulder.

He suddenly appeared silently in front of Saliro and pressed down on his shoulder. Just like the time when he forced Saliro to retreat, he revealed a smile as Saliro's expression changed abruptly.

"Lord Deputy Commander, you don't seem to have learned your lesson."

Shien patted Saliro's shoulder and spoke in an extremely friendly manner as if he was persuading him with kind words.

"This time, you have to remember my voice and my appearance, lest you court death in front of me next time, understand?"

Shien's kind words of persuasion caused Saliro's expression to turn extremely ugly.

And at this time, the surrounding people also reacted.

"Ahhh …!"

Geno, who was closest to Saliro, was scared out of his wits. Looking at the sudden appearance of Shien, he shouted and tried to retreat, but he was pushed to the ground and fell there in a sorry state.

Boom!

The surrounding imperial knights were greatly agitated. Seeing that Saliro was restrained by Shien, they almost instinctively surrounded him and pointed their weapons at Shien.

"Stop!"

Saliro hurriedly shouted at the imperial knights.

He knew that with the strength of these knights, it was impossible for them to do anything to Shien.

Not to mention anything else, just his ability to appear and disappear mysteriously like teleportation was destined to make it impossible for the imperial knights here to even think of touching Shien.

No, not only the imperial knights, but even he himself might not be able to touch Shien. There was no way he could do anything to him.

Saliro originally wanted to give Capeline and her party a show of strength, forcing her to enter the palace alone, or directly start a battle here to prevent Mara from being threatened. Unexpectedly, he was the one who showed his strength instead.

This caused Saliro to clench and loosen his fists several times. In the end, he could only stare at Shien.

Shien still looked indifferent, but his eyes swept around with a mocking and slightly indifferent expression.

That look reminded Saliro of the Lefferut Family's fate.

Saliro's heart suddenly trembled.

"… Your Excellency wishes to enter the Imperial Palace and meet the Imperial Consort, right?" Zalillo could only suppress the emotions in his heart and say in a low voice, "The Imperial Concubine has also instructed that if it is you, you can enter the palace and head to the Imperial Hall to see the Imperial Concubine."

Be. say. Sean withdrew his gaze and looked at Saliro. "It seems that your Imperial Concubine wants to see me."

Shien looked at Saliro. "It seems that your Shien wants to see me."

He had long wanted to see what kind of person Mara was.

He had long wanted to see what kind of person the other party was.

"I'm not the only one who wants to see her. Everyone here wants to see her."

Shien said to Saliro with a smile. "Let everyone enter the palace and see our Shien." Sean smiled at Saliro and said, "Let's let everyone enter the palace and have a good look at our Imperial Concubine."

"No!" Saliro immediately replied. "Except for Her Highness Capeline and Shien, no one else is allowed to enter the palace!"

At this point, Saliro was ready to receive Shien's attack.

Although Saliro was a little creeped out by the legendary meteor shower, this was not the time to be timid.

Let everyone enter the palace to see the Shien?

What kind of joke was that?

Wasn't that the same as letting Lockett's army surround the Shien?

This was something that could not be allowed.

What Saliro did not know was that Shien did not intend to ask for his permission.

"If the Deputy Commander is not willing to make way, then I'll have to work harder and bring everyone in."

Shien said helplessly.

"Bring them in?"

Saliro was startled at first. Then, as if he had thought of something, his expression changed.

But before Saliro could stop him, Shien had teleported back to the carriage.

An astonishing amount of Mana swept out from his body and instantly enveloped everyone in his camp.

"Quick! Stop them! "

Saliro shouted at the top of his lungs.

"—!?"

The imperial knights immediately reacted and launched an attack without hesitation.

Instantly, countless arrows and magic spells turned into a barrage of bullets that covered the sky and the earth, raining down from the rear.

It was a torrential rain of thousands of arrows.

It was a magic bullet that blotted out the sky.

Countless attacks mercilessly shrouded the army in Shien's direction and fell in a beautiful arc.

But it was too late to make a move.

Swish –!

In a neat air-piercing sound, at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of knights disappeared in Shien's direction.

A large area of the square was immediately emptied, causing the rain of arrows and magic bullets to fall into the air.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of explosions kept ringing out, destroying the ground of the square and raising thick smoke and dust.

"Damn it!"

Saliro's expression was unprecedentedly ugly, and blue veins even popped out on his forehead.

He knew that he had miscalculated.

Who would have thought that the mysterious existence could actually teleport so many people along with it?

Moreover, if there were no accidents, their destination should be the interior of the palace.

In other words, not only did Shien teleport tens of thousands of people, but he also passed through the highest level of the palace's barrier and successfully invaded the interior.

"How is this possible …!?"

For an ability like teleportation to be able to teleport multiple people and pass through an external barrier, not only did the skill need to be of a high level, but it also consumed a shocking amount of magic power.

Sean led tens of thousands of people through the largest enchantment that could protect the palace. The amount of mana needed was enough to drain a Legendary-level mage completely, or even kill him. The success rate was less than 10%.

This was without taking into account the fact that no one possessed such a high-level Instantaneous Movement skill.

Yet, Shien did such an incredible thing.

"Enter the palace!" Saliro immediately yelled, "Don't let their army get close to the royal hall!"

The empire's knights obeyed the order and charged into the palace in groups with loud rumbles.

Saliro glanced at Geno, who was still sitting on the ground in a daze, and was infuriated.

"How much longer do you want to lose face?!"

Saliro kicked Geno and sent him flying.

"Ah! Father, don't hit me! "

Geno screamed and fell to the ground from the kick. He hurriedly hugged his head and ran away in a sorry state.

Looking at Geno in this state, Saliro made up his mind.

"After this battle, I must change the heir."

Even if such a useless fellow had a certain level of strength, he would only lead the family to decline if he became the head of the family.

Rather than that, he might as well spend a lot of effort to support the other children.

Perhaps, with the support of a large number of resources, some of his children would be able to control the situation.

Thinking of this, Zaliro did not stop and directly rushed into the palace.

However, the scene that appeared in front of him not only forced him to stop, but also made his expression turn increasingly grim.

The reason was simple.

It was because the main gate of the palace had been blocked by the army.

Proctor and Tilly stood at the front of the group of empire's knights. As if they had switched sides with Saliro, they spoke expressionlessly.

"It's a pity that this road can't be used today."

As soon as he finished speaking, a storm of magic power formed on Proctor's body.

Behind him, Tilly and all the empire's knights followed suit and released their magic power.

Saliro had no choice but to admit that one man could hold the pass against ten thousand enemies.

Today's battle would probably be a little uncertain.

…

On the other side, Shien and the others were heading to the royal hall as fast as they could.

"Over here!"

Capeline had already dismounted from her horse and led the charge. She pulled out a rather expensive-looking knight's sword from her waist and took the lead in charging.

The female knights of the Broken Blade Knights immediately followed.

Shien and the others also dismounted from the carriage.

"Lilith."

Shien gestured to Lilith.

"Yes, yes!"

Lilith immediately nodded. Evil energy surged from her body, and she flew into the sky, disappearing without a trace.

This was what Shien had discussed with Lilith beforehand.

As their trump card and backup, Lilith was not used to charge and break through enemy lines with Shien, but to control the situation.

Shien guessed that Mara still had some tricks up his sleeves.

Since that was the case, he naturally would not expose Lilith's existence so quickly.

Not only Lilith, but Shien also ordered You Lin to stand by in the sky. If anything happened, she would rush in and join the battle even if it meant destroying the imperial city's barrier.

"Everything is ready." Shien looked at Tierre beside him and said, "Let's go."

Tierre nodded heavily.

She had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

So, Tierre pulled out her twin blades and followed Capeline and the female knights of the Broken Blade Knights to the royal hall.

As for Shien, he stood still. He even closed his eyes and sensed the palace.

Sean's brows furrowed tightly.

"What's going on?" Shien murmured. "This strange magic power wasn't there before."

For some reason, when he entered the palace, Shien felt a very subtle and strange magic power.

The magic power seemed a little obscure and strange, making Shien feel uncomfortable.

"Is this Mara's preparation?"

Shien thought for a moment and opened his eyes.

"I'd like to see what else you can come up with."

With a flash, Sean disappeared on the spot.
