Ellington's research was in full swing, and all kinds of new products came out of the factory. They were transported to all parts of the Irus Empire through convenient space rings and teleportation portals, injecting a strong vitality into the Irus Empire's economy and bringing a huge amount of wealth to the Datang Chamber of Commerce.
According to Tang En's will, this wealth was then circulated out through various construction works. Between the inflow and the outflow, the Ilrus Empire was on a high-speed path of rapid development. This once aging empire was now like a newly born country, full of vitality and vitality. Everyone was full of confidence in the empire's re-emergence.
On the other hand, the old and powerful Solant Empire …
Over the past few days, with the secret promotion of the Ghost Agents and the Thieves Guild, news about Klein, half true and half false, had spread to every town in the Solant Kingdom. Almost everyone knew about Klein's foolish actions.
With the catalysis of this news, the citizens of the Solant Kingdom's resentment towards Klein grew day by day, to a terrifying extent.
Some of the Grand Dukes and Lords had even begun to disobey Klein's orders on the surface, greatly reducing the efficiency of their execution.
Although these Lords were once extremely trusted aides of the Solant Royal Family, after more than a hundred years, it was very thought-provoking that their loyalty was still somewhat intact.
Now that Klein's reputation was not as good as before, if it weren't for the fact that they were worried about Klein's backup plans, those powerful Grand Dukes would have already gathered their troops and rebelled.
Backup plans?
Klein did indeed have some backup plans, but whether or not they could be used was another matter. Even if they were used, whether or not they would be effective against Tang En, the City of Silver, the Radiant Church, and even the Dragons was another matter.
Now, everyone in the Solant Empire knew that Klein had made an extremely wrong choice due to his inflated ambition. Now, people with ulterior motives were waiting, waiting for the day when everything would completely collapse.
Chaotic times had always been what ambitious people liked the most.
Unfortunately, someone wouldn't give these ambitious people any chance. He didn't want to see chaotic times.
Shengge City, the palace, the throne room.
The palace guard ran in in a panic, "Reporting to Your Majesty! Not good! "
The ministers on the left and right sides of the throne immediately fell silent and lowered their heads.
With a gloomy face, Klein squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Speak!"
"Just like last time, the criminals who were caught spreading rumors yesterday disappeared from the death row prison! Captain Myerson, who was guarding the death row prison, didn't find any clues! Those fellows seemed to have disappeared into thin air! "
Klein's face, "Myerson and Myerson's guards, take them out and behead them! And Michelson, he has disappointed me three times in a row. Drag him out and behead him! "
Hiss — —
The ministers all sucked in a breath of cold air. A single sentence from Klein cost more than 50 lives.
"Myerson's Myerson's," Myerson's Of course, "Myerson
"Myerson"
A fierce fist force came crashing down, and Grand Duke Gith, who had raised his head to speak, was instantly smashed into meat paste.
Klein retracted his fist and said coldly, "My orders are unquestionable."
The entire place was silent.
No one dared to speak up for Grand Duke Gith who had died for no reason.
"Why aren't you going? Do you want to die?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty!"
After the palace guard finished speaking, he turned around and ran.
"Humph!" "What a waste!"
Klein snorted coldly, his mood becoming even worse.
He was very clear that the news that had been spreading around the kingdom was definitely not for no reason. There must be someone behind this, but those fellows who spread the news were too cunning. Even if they were caught by mistake, as long as they weren't careful, they would completely disappear in the blink of an eye. It was as if they knew how to use teleportation.
But how was that possible? Even if it was a Grand Master Mage, not everyone could master teleportation, let alone those fellows!
Klein was very anxious to know who was slandering him behind his back, and what was the purpose of slandering him!
"This news came from the Thieves Guild, so it's basically confirmed. But until now, you haven't even found out where the Thieves Guild is. Who can tell me why? Hmm? "
Klein looked around, but no one dared to answer his question.
"Marquis Hogman? Hmm? "
Marquis Topney Hogman's body trembled. He lowered his head and said, "This is not within the scope of my duties, so I don't know. But I think Duke Carlton has a large family and is well-informed. He will definitely be able to figure it out."
Topney, f * ck you!
Morrison Carlton on the side almost jumped up when he heard this. Right now, Klein was a ticking time bomb. Whoever touched him would be unlucky. This guy actually wanted to bring the disaster onto himself!?
Klein's dark eyes fell on Duke Carlton. After a while, he looked at the others.
The ministers who were glanced at by Klein all felt a chill on their necks. As the saying went, being in the king's company was like being in the tiger's company. But they had never been so scared before.
"Good, very good. There are so many pillars of the Solant Kingdom here, but you can't even find a small Thieves Guild. Hahahaha … Hahahaha … What do I need you for?!"
Klein's roar scared everyone present and made them shrink their necks.
Motherf * cker, this is bad!
The nobles present complained incessantly in their hearts. What did he mean by a "small" Thieves' Guild? The Thief Association had been around for a much longer time than the Solant Kingdom. Furthermore, how large was the Thief Association? The members of the Guild could be found in every corner of Prandal. Who dared to say that the Thieves Guild was a small organization?
Seeing that Klein was about to go crazy from the recent bad news, everyone in the throne room was in danger. No one wanted to be the next person to die here.
"Marquis Hogman."
Because of Tang En, Klein's tolerance for Topney Hogman had become very poor. He urgently needed a channel to vent. Klein stared at Marquis Hogman and said in a low voice, "I'll give you one day to find out where the Thieves Guild is … If you can't find it, you can die."
One day?! What a joke! He was clearly looking for an excuse to kill him!
Topney was just about to speak when he saw the murderous look on Klein's face, so he swallowed his words.
If he couldn't complete the mission, he would die the day after tomorrow. But if he spoke now, he would definitely die on the spot …
Now that Klein wanted to kill someone, he probably didn't even bother to find an excuse.
"Duke Carlton."
"Yes!"
"I'll give you three days to find out who's behind these rumors."
Morrison saw Klein's cold expression and lowered his head to accept the order. Even if his daughter was the Queen, he didn't dare to provoke Klein.
Right now, Klein no longer cared about his own family.
No, he was already a lunatic.
Morrison thought of the previous queen, and his heart suddenly turned cold. Could it be that they were also going to be sacrificed?
"No matter who it is, after I find out, I'll make sure they die!"
Klein roared with a ferocious expression, "Send out an urgent letter to inform all the City Lords. From now on, the Solant Kingdom will enter a state of martial law and implement a curfew! All those who spread rumors and are suspected to be members of the Thieves Guild will be killed without mercy! "
Hiss!
The whole country would be in chaos!
A group of ministers sucked in a breath of cold air. Although martial law had been implemented a while ago and they had begun to search for people who spread rumors, the methods weren't that extreme.
Now, they were implementing a curfew and killing any suspicious people indiscriminately. This would definitely cause the Solant Kingdom to fall into panic!
However, Klein had completely lost his mind at this moment. He only wanted to kill those who slandered him.
… …
"Captain Michelson! Not good! "
After the palace guard left the throne room, he didn't immediately carry out Klein's order. Instead, he gritted his teeth and ran to find Captain Michelson.
Captain Michelson was also very anxious at this moment, "Sitney, what's His Majesty's attitude?"
"His Majesty is furious. He wants to kill all the guards and kill you!"
The palace guard, Sitney, said anxiously: "His Majesty has gone mad! He just killed Duke Gith on the spot! "
Captain Michelson was shocked, "What!? Even Grand Duke Gith was killed!? "
"Yes! Captain, hurry up and take everyone and escape! "
Sitney was very anxious. Captain Myerson was normally very good to everyone, but now that he was about to be executed, he was very impatient, "Captain Myerson, you should take everyone and leave Saint Song City in the name of carrying out the arrest warrant before the order comes out! If this drags on, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave! "
"Damn it!"
Michelson punched the wall and gritted his teeth, "How can people be loyal to a king like this!?"
"Captain, what other expectations do you have for His Majesty Klein? In order to achieve his ambitions, he has already abandoned everything! "
Sitney lowered his voice and said, "Don't forget about Empress Telisa."
Empress Telisa was Klein's former wife. Their son Henrietta Solant was a very good prince and had a high reputation in Saint Song City. Later, because Klein's concubine was pregnant, Telisa was worried about her position, so she instigated Prince Henrietta to urge Klein to appoint a crown prince as soon as possible. In the end, Klein felt that the mother and son wanted to steal his throne, so the mother and son were both killed by Klein in a rage.
This was an open secret that no one dared to talk about, but everyone knew about it.
As the saying goes, even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs, but in order to hold onto the throne, Klein didn't even care about the lives of his wife and son. What other expectations could one have for this kind of king?
Captain Michelson escaped.
This kind of king was indeed not worthy of his life.
Under the influence of Tang En's secret hand, the various factors fused together and fermented continuously. The flaws in Klein's character were all perfectly utilized, and he was walking step by step towards the abyss.
