One by one, one by one, the things that were originally complicated and had no source seemed to have a glimmer of light.

Wei Lisi crossed her arms and tapped her arms lightly with her jade fingers, her thoughts turned sharply.

[The current situation is not optimistic. 】

In front of them, the array of Imperial Guards was cleaning up the scattered mutants from other places all the time.

As for Becky, considering that the darkness was not conducive to protecting her, she and Louise were let back to the rear just now.

Although the girl was unwilling and reluctant in every possible way, she could only obediently nodded in agreement.

night, deeper.

===

At the same time, in the imperial capital of Monsell, inside the palace.

The main hall, the meeting hall.

"This, what is going on? How long does His Majesty want us to wait?"

"I do not know either."

"Master Maglia, do you know something?"

"No, Prime Minister Zuo and I don't know what His Majesty the Emperor wants to do."

"But it's not a problem to wait like this!"

"Yeah, we've all been in the meeting hall for a day!"

"My lords don't need to be in such a hurry, or is there anything at home?"

"Huh? No, no..."

"It's fine if you don't have one. Your Majesty is in charge of eating and drinking. Your lords should relax. If there is anything, His Majesty will inform us. As a courtier, you should not speculate."

"However, didn't demon caves and demons appear in the outskirts of the imperial capital!? Such an important matter, we have been staying here, isn't it a waste of time?"

"What are you worried about, my lord? During the day, we have already discussed with His Majesty and His Royal Highness, the imperial army is dispatched in all directions, and His Royal Highness Second is leading the charge..."

"And even if we let everyone go back, what effect will it have on the battlefield ahead!?"

"But... but... I, we..."

Just when everyone was talking and making a fuss.

"His Majesty is here!"

Following the eunuch's high-pitched and loud transmission, all the ministers immediately held their breaths and returned to their positions to remain silent.

The meeting hall, which was noisy just now, became quiet in the blink of an eye, and a needle could be heard.

Emperor Lubas walked to the throne from the back of the hall, looking at the officials below with cold eyes.

He didn't say hello at all, just came up with one sentence——

"take away!"

"Yes!"

The murderous words made everyone feel cold, and most of the courtiers didn't even have time to understand what they were going to do...

A large number of soldiers rushed into the two sides of the meeting hall immediately, and then plunged into the courtiers.

"What are you going to do!?"

"Let go of me, I'm... ah!!"

For a moment, confusion, screams, suppression...

One after another.

When the commotion dissipated, the rest of the courtiers who had nothing to do were horrified and shocked.

They looked at the arrested officials with strange expressions on their faces.

Emperor Lu Bas looked around, and suddenly said: "You ministers are shocked, there is nothing here, let's retreat."

After his words fell, the ministers were even more silent, not knowing what he meant.

It was the emperor who kept them here, and now it is the emperor who suddenly said that they can leave.

There is no explanation in the middle, it is completely confusing!

However, in the dark corners that cannot be found, although some ministers' faces are pale, the light in their eyes is flickering, and there is a sense of relief after the catastrophe.

"As ordered!"

They didn't dare to question the emperor's intentions. Since he said that he could leave, there was no need for them as courtiers to stay here any longer.

As for the officials who were caught next to them, no one dared to ask them at the moment.

Because the atmosphere at night was very strange and full of chills.

No one dared to speak at this moment.

When the ministers left, Lubas walked towards the arrested officials in military uniform.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...I, I..."

puff!

Before the official finished speaking, there was a clang, and a sharp, cold light streaked across his neck.

"Ah, ah ah ah!!!"

A head rolled to the ground, and the other officials who were still alive suddenly screamed in fright.

One even fainted.

Under the cold eyes of the emperor, holding a cold sharp sword in his hand, he looked at them with a sneer.

"Although your official positions in the court are not high, reaching this point is enough to prove your ambition."

"Say it, you only have one chance, don't think that this emperor will let you die as easily as he did."

Volume 154 #Chapter [-] Timing!Battle of Tira Town

Occam Imperial Capital, Munsell.

The rest of the celebration has not yet passed, and the frequent mobilization of troops today has made many people full of doubts.

It should be said that after the celebration, with the issuance of the imperial decree, everyone's rewards are over, and it is only natural that the generals with sergeants return to their respective stations at this time.

But careful people will always find that the troops going out from Munsell are all fully armed and have serious faces, without the slightest excitement and joy of returning home after being awarded a medal.

On the contrary, his face was frosty, as if he was about to go to the battlefield.

From the looks of it, it wasn't a triumphant return at all.

"What happened? Why did you mobilize so many troops today? It is said that someone saw Her Highness the Second Emperor leading the imperial guards out of the city this morning..."

"Shh! Didn't you hear?!"

"Ah? What did you hear?"

"My family has a relative who trades goods between the imperial capital and the port. His family is in business."

"At the end of today's celebration, he was supposed to pack up his things and organize the caravan to go back. How could he have been stopped at Qiumen Avenue!"

"There is a large area over there, which has been blocked by the imperial army. It is said that there is a gathering of monsters, and the empire is clearing it!"

"Oh!? Is it a monster? No wonder there are so many troops mobilized, maybe there are a lot of them?"

"Hey, who's to say it's not... But since the empire has made a move, as long as the monsters are cleared, the Qiumen Avenue will soon be open again."

"But... a monster... I have never seen it in my life, if I have the chance to see it, I will have no regrets."

"Ahaha, idiot, are you looking for death? Monsters don't stand there for you to watch."

"Also...Speaking of which, I also heard a piece of news."

"what news?"

"The emperor summoned a group of ministers, but he hasn't released them yet. I don't know why."

"It's quite strange."

"Forget it, forget it, common people like you and me can't worry about that kind of thing, drink! Do it!"

"Dry!"

In the streets and alleys, in the busy commercial streets, many people are idle and discussing these things.

But in the dark corner that they don't know, a big chase is going on in the imperial capital.

"Quick, run away!"

"Hehe, can you escape?"

"what!?"

"Ahhhhh!!"

another place...

"How could it be, how could the news leak out!?"

"Don't worry about this, the master has probably been discovered, let's run away!"

The next second, two master sword servants stopped in front of them, sneering again and again.

"No, this way!"

"Don't waste your energy, just grab it with nothing."

hum!

The sword is in full swing!

"Ah~! No, how is this possible!? You guys, how did you find this place!?"

Swords, swords, crossbows and saps, sword energy and magic are released in such a way that passers-by in the distance cannot notice them.

After a few minutes, those who fled were either dead or dealt with in the dark.

Either be tied up, unable to move, and naturally it is impossible to commit suicide.

At this time, a mysterious man in the lead showed a proud and carefree mockery on his face.

"Nothing is impossible... His Majesty the Emperor has long noticed the anomaly and sent someone to keep an eye on you!"

"Want to subvert the empire a little bit? You don't have that ability yet!"

"It's just a pity that you can't sit still... It was quite difficult to confirm that you are spies of the empire."

"However, His Majesty the Emperor deliberately kept all the officials in the palace today and prevented them from entering or leaving, and did not allow them to communicate with the outside world."

"It's at a critical juncture for your operation. I'm afraid ordinary people have already shown their feet when this kind of thing happens?"

"It's also thanks to you spies who can wait until dusk to act, but in the end it's His Majesty who is superior!"

Hearing this, the arrested spies showed shock and panic.

"What... what!? The emperor... is this a trap!?"

And the mysterious leader laughed even more when he heard the words.

"Hehe, you still don't understand, is it too stupid?"

"Dare to confront His Majesty and the Empire, and your fate is already doomed!"

"Take them away for interrogation, then search the mansion and houses, dig three feet into the ground, and check the secret passages. Any valuable information must not be let go!"

"As ordered!"

The night is dark, and no one cares about the darkness hidden under the prosperity.

When a spark ignites in the darkness, it will soon be a big fire.

Pedestrians passing by saw it and immediately shouted.

"It's on fire! It's on fire! Come and help!"
