Chapter 4022 Rain(2/3)
appearance.
"you……"
The head maid's eyes were red, and the old king smiled relaxedly and said: "Everyone will die, so don't be sad. I will help you eliminate disasters and let you live in a world that is not dominated by evil gods, madmen, and beasts."
…
In front of the royal palace, Su Xiao summoned the Lord Train. After Bubuwang, Ammu, and Baha got on the train, they all looked at the alchemy maid Vinia. Vinia looked around, and the more she looked, the deeper her slender eyebrows furrowed.
After searching for a while, she finally found the wardrobe, looked inside for a while, and found a suitable outfit. This was back in the Kingdom of Ancient Dragons, when the Girl of Darkness was cleaning up the abyssal creatures around Sanctuary City, she borrowed the Lord's Train for a while, so
Leave.
Vinia is very concerned about the cleanliness in the train. She first used the train's rapid washing and drying device to clean a complete set of clothes. Then she took the clothes, entered the bathroom, bathed carefully, and then put them on thoroughly.
After drying the clothes, I started to clean the inside of the Lord Train with various cleaning tools that I had never seen before but knew how to use at first try.
During this period, Bubo Wang wanted to make a cup of milk tea, but he was stopped by Weinia halfway through. Weinia studied for about five minutes, and then started to prepare milk tea for Bubu Wang in front of the beverage counter. It only took a few minutes, and all the processes for a cup were completed.
The milk tea was made successfully using raw materials and without any semi-finished products. Obviously, Vinia has improved the manufacturing method, otherwise, it would definitely not be so fast.
After taking a sip, Bubuwang's eyes lit up.
"Woof."
Bubu Wang just wanted Su Xiao to take a sip, but realized that his master was not interested in this kind of drink, so he called Amu instead.
"Woof."
"Moo."
Eminem pinched the small cup of milk tea and sipped it. The milk tea cup was empty. Eminem scratched his head. It was too little. It was digested in his mouth and he couldn't taste the taste.
The train started. Half an hour later, Su Xiao, Bu Bu Wang, Amu, and Baha each held a milk tea cup suitable for their own body shape. Su Xiao frowned, looked at Bu Bu Wang who was very happy to drink, and tried
After taking a sip, his frown relaxed a little.
The feeling is, does this thing have such an aftertaste? Moreover, the taste of this tea is a bit familiar. He took another sip and suddenly thought, wait...
Asked Grandma to bring the container where the black maple tea was stored, and pulled out the seal. It was very good. One-third of it was gone. This milk tea was made very well. I will make less of it in the future. It’s a waste of maple tea. Even if there are black maple trees,
There is not so much maple tea produced either.
At this moment, Bu Buwang's eyes were particularly bright when looking at the maple tea can. The milk tea made from black maple tea is so delicious~
Su Xiao returned to the headquarters. It was almost nine o'clock. He opened the door of the office and found that the room was dark. In the past, Deputy Minister Tuo Enta had turned on the lights in advance, asked people to prepare supper, and organized the day.
The documents that need to be approved should be placed on the desk in order and only need to be signed.
Deputy Minister Tuo Nta did not do it today, or in other words, what he did in the past should not be condescended to him. This is the job of an assistant and secretary, but after Su Xiao took office, Tuo Nta did not arrange this.
The manpower on both sides, or in other words, the deputy minister Tuo Enta beside Su Xiao, is actually the old king's spy.
This is actually normal. How could a top strategist like the old king hand over such an important position as Minister of the "Empire Special Affairs Department" to an outsider who had only been in this world for a few days without any preparation.
Eminem turned on the light, and the room became brighter. Sitting on the leather chair behind the desk, Su Xiao breathed in the cool night breeze outside the window. It was already the end of summer, and the night temperature at this time was slightly cool, but it was also particularly fresh.
He picked up the note on the table:
'My subordinate resigned from the position of deputy minister five days ago without notifying your Excellency in advance. I hope you will forgive me.'
Five days ago, it seemed that Tuo'Enta had another position in the old king's arrangement, but his sudden appearance gave Tuo'Enta a more important task.
The alchemy maid Vinia closed the window, and the chirping of the half-dead insects outside the window was much quieter. After sitting back and taking a nap, Su Xiao opened the prompt list and checked the main tasks that had appeared before.
[You have activated a new main quest.]
【Faction Mission·Set Sail.】
Difficulty level: Lv.99.
Mission introduction: Set sail for the "Sea of Life".
Task period: 5 calendar days.
Mission reward: Reincarnation Badge × 1
Mission punishment: forced execution.
…
Seeing this mission reward, Su Xiao was completely reassured. At the difficulty level of the main mission between "Super Peak" and "The Peak", [Reincarnation Badge] is no longer rare. In contrast, main missions of this difficulty are
, the income margin soared.
Recently, I have to find a way to get the refresh permission of the "Honor Store" and spend some of the more than 20 [Reincarnation Badges] I have on hand to maximize my own strength to ensure that I will have greater confidence in being promoted to the "Peak of Power" in the future.
".
After checking the time, Su Xiao saw that there was plenty of time. After Su Xiao reviewed the important documents, he took Bubowang, Ammu, Baha, and the alchemy maid Vinia downstairs and returned to the Lord Train.
The alchemy maid Vinia, who was idle for the time being, came to the front of the carriage. Her body slowly leaned back and was wrapped by the charging device created by Bubo Wang. She fell into sleep and used the energy storage of the Lord Train to replenish biological energy and perform alchemy.
Maid Vinia has not replenished her energy for a long time, and her biological energy reserve is only 9%.
Su Xiao went to the bedroom in the trunk, took a shower, and fell asleep. He didn't know when he would have such a good rest next time. His plan was to set off at noon tomorrow and head to No. 0 in the Southern Continent.
Abyss Spread Area·Beast Arena.
He didn't know how long he had slept. Su Xiao was awakened by the sound of the communicator. He sat up and was confused for a moment. He looked at the dozen communicators on the bedside table and picked up one to connect. Well, there was no sound. He picked up the wrong one.
, but by this time, he had also passed the confused state of getting up, and picked up the communicator that kept ringing.
"explain."
"Sir Baiye, can you come to the palace now?"
Tonta's voice came from the communicator.
"..."
Su Xiao looked at the time, it was seven o'clock in the morning, and he said: "Okay."
After saying that, he hung up the communication, started the train, and headed straight for the palace.
The sun rises in the early morning. Today, the palace is filled with chaos and a sad atmosphere. All the high-ranking officials of the empire have used teleportation formations to arrive at the royal city overnight and rush to the palace. These high-ranking officials in the past
, the mountains collapsed in front of them, and the big shots with unchanging expressions all looked panic-stricken at this moment, because their sky was really about to collapse.
The lord's train stopped in front of the royal palace. There were not many people in the empire who dared to drive the train here. Therefore, although the people present looked a little angry, they did not make a sound.
Seeing this train, Assistant Prime Minister Enmu, who was pacing back and forth, immediately came forward to greet Su Xiao. As soon as Su Xiao got off the train, Assistant Prime Minister Enmu grabbed his arm and said urgently:
"Quickly, follow me to the dormitory."
We arrived at the front hall unobstructed, and the tall metal doors were pushed open. There was a dormitory of several hundred square meters, with floor-to-ceiling windows on one side of the wall. At this moment, the thick curtains blocked the room, and the light in the room was very bright.
On the big bed, the old king Roald St. Adez was half lying on the bed, beside his son and now only son, the eldest prince Baratheon St. Adez.
Beside the bed, the eldest prince was holding his father's hand, tears falling uncontrollably. There were dozens of the old king's ministers present. They were not qualified to come forward, so they were kneeling further away.
Many of these people cried silently, and some lowered their heads but had firm eyes.
Beside the bed, there were only Commander-in-Chief Litanvig, Assistant Minister Enmu, Minister Villiam, former Deputy Minister To, Enta, and Su Xiao.
Seeing Su arrive, the old king said in a weak voice:
"Bai Ye, it seems that you have won."
As he spoke, the old king could feel that his consciousness was drifting away out of his control. He looked at his only son beside him, the eldest prince who was about to be crowned.
"Don't cry, child, everyone will die one day. It is also a kind of happiness to die surrounded by family and friends."
The old king smiled and reluctantly sat up. With some trembling hands, he took the crown handed by the head maid.
"Baratheon St. Adez, in the name of the thirtieth king of the empire, I crown you and become the thirty-first king of the empire."
After speaking, the old king put the crown on the eldest prince's head with both hands. The eldest prince's lips trembled, and finally he said with a cry:
"Father, I can't do it. I can't tell clearly whether my subordinates are loyal or traitorous. I'm afraid that I won't be able to maintain the results you have worked so hard to build over the years. I'm afraid..."
"Don't be afraid!"
The old king's hand patted the eldest prince's shoulder hard, and then he said gently:
"Silly boy, there is no such thing as loyalty and traitor. Your ministers are human beings, and human hearts are fickle. The so-called distinction between loyal ministers and traitors is just people's wishful thinking. It's not that you think this person is a loyal minister.
He will always be a loyal minister for the rest of his life. Everyone may have been loyal and brave, but gradually fell into evil. From now on, your ministers will be trusted when they are loyal, and they will be eliminated immediately when they are treacherous."
What the old king said was serious and thoughtful. The eldest prince nodded. He hesitated to speak. The old king said sternly:
"You are the king. You don't need to consider whether others are willing to listen to your problems."
"Father, I need someone to help me."
"Of course my father has prepared manpower for you. After you succeed, the assistant minister, Enmu, will continue to assist you."
-
"But... Enmu is already very old, what about after him?"
"General Commander Litanvig."
"What about after that?"
To be continued...
