Alonso noticed this and his heart skipped a beat. He knew that something was about to happen.
He remained calm and collected. He knew that he couldn't alert the enemy at this time. If he alerted this small group of enemies hiding in the dark, it was very likely that more of them would be released. He wanted to lure the snake out of its hole and catch all of these scum in one fell swoop.
In fact, how would a person in power like Alonso know that although there were people with bad intentions, not everyone was like Alonso, a vested interest in this decaying empire. They were people who were being oppressed, so of course they would walk the path of rebellion. Not to mention why they didn't work hard and focus on development and wanted to gain something without risking anything. Hehe, it was fine when the fruits of your hard work were not taken away by others. When you realized that no matter how hard you worked for tens of thousands of years, you couldn't compare to the huge amount of wealth that the vested interests already had. Furthermore, they even closed off the channels that allowed them to gain wealth in the past. It was as if you thought that earning money was written in the law, but the huge amount of wealth that the upper echelons earned was obtained that way, but they didn't allow you to do so when they were in power.
This wasn't a matter of fairness. It was a matter of hope being taken away. No matter how hard you worked, it was useless. With the channels for advancement gone, the nobles didn't need to work hard because there would be people protecting them. They could do whatever they wanted, eat, drink, and enjoy themselves. They didn't need to do anything. Even if you worked until you died of exhaustion, you would still be a lackey. Furthermore, the gap between the rich and the poor was getting bigger and bigger. The richer you were, the richer you were, and the poorer you were, the poorer you were. At this time, the people at the bottom would think of the simplest and most violent method, which was to rob! Kill the boss and become the boss. This was the mentality of the people at the bottom.
It couldn't be said that this mentality was right. It could only be said that this was a state that would occur in an empire that was struggling at death's door. When the empire was about to collapse, all kinds of conflicts would intensify. There would be internal and external troubles, and the people would have no way of making a living.
At this time, people like Alonso played a role in this historical period. You could say that he was the guardian of peace, or the foolish loyalist of the empire. He could even be said to be the protector of the decadent corporations and the stumbling block of the people at the bottom.
Actually, it wasn't a big problem. It was just a problem of how to distribute the limited resources. If a small number of people monopolized the majority of the resources, it would lead to this kind of riot. This was the inevitable result. As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there will be resistance.
But on second thought, from Alonso's point of view, he was just doing his duty and doing his job well. It was not up to him to decide whether the Emperor was good or bad. The current situation was just fate. Everyone was just doing their best to play their role well. Just like Kaiser The Great, he was just doing his best to be a qualified licentious and incapable ruler.
As expected, the people hiding in the dark saw Alonso but didn't see them. They decided to clean up the nobles, ministers, businessmen, and tycoons who were partying in the Hero Palace later, when the heavy rain affected their vision and hearing.
As soon as Alonso entered the Hero Palace, they didn't inform the nobles, ministers, businessmen, and tycoons. He was worried that there might be spies of the enemy among them. He didn't even know who the enemy was. It was possible that the enemy was hiding among them.
He just led his personal guards to Kaiser The Great, who was eating heartily.
"Dear Mr. Alonso, you've worked hard today. Sit down and eat with us. You've been so nervous all day. What's the matter?" Seeing Alonso come to his side, Kaiser The Great happily invited this pillar of the empire to eat and drink with him. He knew that he could still sit there and eat heartily because of this marshal. Kaiser The Great was a cruel and self-indulgent emperor, but he wasn't a fool. He had grown up under Alonso's protection, and he knew how important Alonso was. Although he felt that Alonso was very boring, he had always been courteous and respectful to Alonso. It could even be said that he treated Alonso as half a father. He had put his mother under house arrest. Because of his mother, he could do a lot of things.
Alonso nodded slightly. He didn't look surprised, but Kaiser The Great knew Alonso well. Kaiser The Great immediately realized how serious the situation was.
At Alonso's signal, Kaiser The Great immediately told the people around him that his stomach wasn't feeling well. Accompanied by Alonso, he went to the bathroom.
As soon as they left the banquet hall of the Hero Palace, Alonso and the others immediately escorted Kaiser The Great to his own palace. Alonso's William family troops and imperial guards were secretly dispatched. Some of them were sent to protect Kaiser The Great, while the others were led by Alonso to set up an ambush and wait for the big fish to take the bait.
"Brothers and sisters, it's time to assassinate that despicable Bathing King!" an assassin in the dark said to the others.
The Bathing King referred to Kaiser The Great. Kaiser The Great was called Bathing King because Kaiser The Great had a hobby of taking baths.
In the big marble bathtub, he would be served by beautiful maids with beautiful figures. There would be wine and food, music and dancing, as well as paintings by artists. A bunch of people would party in front of him.
Kaiser The Great really knew how to enjoy himself. He played with everything he could.
Of course, apart from the real dignitaries of the empire, the only people who could really bathe with him were some special beauties, such as princesses of other countries or female magicians from the Magic Sanctuary.
Of course, people had to be honest with each other when bathing, and women were no exception. Kaiser The Great really knew how to have fun.
At the order, these people rushed out of the dark places. In the rain, they set off in the direction of the brightly lit and magnificent Hero Palace from all directions.
They gradually gathered into a black torrent and poured into the Hero Palace, which was currently partying.
A few guards who had drunk some wine were quickly taken care of by the assassins. These people covered their faces and rushed into the banquet hall of the Hero Palace, where the dignitaries were chatting. They were immersed in a sea of delicious food, wine, and beautiful women.
Armed and soaked, mob assassins rushed into the warm and brightly lit hall. They really didn't fit in with the environment.
At the moment, there were still cheerful voices in the hall. Obviously, these assassins weren't taken seriously.
"Kill! Don't leave a single one alive! " The leader's voice broke the joyous atmosphere and added a colorful touch to this extraordinary summer celebration.
