There is no doubt that the empire is becoming stronger and stronger. However, there are also many surging undercurrents within the empire, which is even more unquestionable. However, the most dangerous of all undercurrents has recently ushered in a catastrophe.
The Knights of Hell were dispatched under Feich's order, and their goal was to destroy the Rebirth Sect. According to the information that Feich dug out from Marelis's mind, the Rebirth Sect's strongholds in the empire suffered a heavy blow. They could not escape because Feich asked the Magic School and the Treasure Girls to cooperate with the action. The magicians of the school blocked the space teleportation, and the Treasure Girls used spell-breaking weapons, so that most spells could not produce their due effect.
The desperate cultists became furious, and the "destruction" and "rebirth" they believed in would only give birth to one choice at this time: dogs jump over the wall. In most cases, the Knights of Hell do not need to present any evidence, and those who use evil magic or transform into monsters have already confessed their crimes.
Feiqi does not need a trial, he does not want to waste time on this matter. The target targeted by the Knights of the Hell have only two choices: argue with the magic gun's pure gold bullet, or surrender, and accept the test of detection spells. Those who fail the spell test are still a pure gold bullet, and those who pass the test will be imprisoned to isolate all their connections with the outside world.
"This is the power of the emperor." Feichi said to anyone who wanted to plead for the last situation. "Let them pray to the goddess. They will be locked up until the miracle arrives."
After a large-scale search, three hundred people - or monsters - heads and two hundred detainees shocked the entire empire. For those who are honest and innocent, this only adds to the topic of conversation after dinner, and there is nothing to be shaken. The scared people are actually other "undercurrents". Among them are spies from other kingdoms and nobles, their spokespersons or middlemen, some hired assassins, brokers, and sabotagers. They found that the Knights of Hell were extremely accurate in arresting, and their ability to capture was far beyond their expectations, so of course they would be afraid. ‘What should I do if the emperor also had his own information?’
If these people had seen the performance of the Hell Knights on the battlefield, they might not be afraid, but instead accepted their fate. Feiqi's sudden blow had the effect of killing snakes and worms. Many "worms" seized the time to leave Tawugang City and leave the border of the empire. They gave up space, and the old nobles who were about to surrender arrived. Some of these people were calm and some were trembling. They could not see the intentions of His Majesty the Emperor, or they were unwilling to believe that this action was just to fight the "Destruction of the Rebirth Sect."
Feiqi can take care of many things, the only thing he can't care about what others think, at least he can't control it on a large scale, he doesn't have this ability. If he had this ability, he would have been able to reverse everyone's soul beliefs and produce a powerful magic effect to avoid the world being destroyed - even the Creator had to change the state of the soul through a series of infiltration, destruction and intimidation.
Some things cannot be managed, some things can be managed, but it does not mean that it can be done as expected. Feige is having a headache about one thing: Intelligence chief Mathers came to report a week before the "merger ceremony" and told unexpected bad news.
"Your Majesty, the plan I arranged cannot be implemented, because the attack on the Knights of Hell on the Destruction of the Rebirth Sect made some assassins choose to leave Tawugang City early, and no matter how much money or what kind of benefits it would be, no one dared to carry out sabotage work at the merger ceremony."
"If no one causes trouble, you can't frame the Marce family? You say that it's not okay to give it. Are the assassins or mercenaries already very rich?"
"They are afraid of being investigated. Now there is a widely recognized saying among the mercenaries: if organizations like the Destruction Rebirth Sect cannot be hidden or held back, then no one can do so. He will make trouble for the emperor, especially if he makes trouble directly, he will definitely not live for three days." Mathers scratched his head: "Your Majesty, if there is a year, I still have a way to turn this situation around..."
"How do you turn it around?"
"Make... no, fake some successful activities, let those people get away with it, and spread the news of success. Among mercenaries and assassins, rumors have a broader living space and greater influence than the real situation." Mathers said: "The rulers before you - not including Andrew - all need assassins to do something bad for themselves, which requires them to maintain influence all the time, so some prestigious assassin associations are built on rumors that the ruler allows, and are manipulated by the ruler's money."
"Is this included the assassination of me during the Grand Duke of Aria?" Feichi suddenly asked about this, and Mathers suddenly shivered. "Is that elf's assassin who Aria directly looked for, or through you?"
"Your Majesty, it's through me."
"I think so too. Aria likes to let other people's hands get dirty and do their jobs for themselves. This is the reason why he fails - I fail almost for the same reason. Mathers, I'm very disappointed with you."
Mathers knelt on the ground in an instant: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. My disappointment in myself is also unparalleled, I..."
"Stop, don't say anything '' can't be added. My emotions are not moved to the limit so quickly. I just know your limit, that's all. Well, get up from the ground. If you have the ability to complete all tasks, I will order you to save the world, right?"
Mathers was a little at a loss. He stood up as required, but his legs still couldn't stop shaking. "Your Majesty, can I still serve you?"
"You have many things to do, and I can tolerate the flaws in your work. I am not perfect, am I not tolerating this too?" Feiqi said these words expressionlessly. Mathers didn't know how to understand the meaning. "Have the people of the Marce family arrived in Tawugang City?"
"Arrival, Count Monta Marce is in Tawugang City, and they arrived this morning."
"I want to see him, let him come to the palace immediately." Feichi waved his hand and signaled that Mathers could retreat.
Mathers wiped the sweat from his head. If he couldn't do this, he would have no head to use for his hands to wipe his sweat from now on. The intelligence manager trotted away from the palace, replaced the fastest horse, and went to the inn as the servants chased him wildly. The Marce family had just settled down, and Sheila and Langdon were welcoming their arrival for His Majesty the Emperor according to their etiquette and official positions. Monta's dark round face had been waving with a smile, and his white beard and short hair were shaking slightly. Before they left, Mathers rushed in.
"Earl, very presumptuous. Your Majesty the Emperor wants to see you." Mathers said with a heavy breath, "Please go to the palace now, Your Majesty is waiting."
"I am very honored to have the opportunity to see Your Majesty in advance, but can you tell me what's going on?" The smile on Monta's face disappeared, there was doubt in his eyes, but more nervous.
"I don't know either. This is what Your Majesty asks me, so I must convey it 100%.
Mathers did not answer the question, but he answered the question in another way: what the emperor asked for was 100%. When facing an emperor like Fitch, the reasons were often not important, the content was not important, and emotions were important. Mathers did not dare to neglect, and Earl Monta Marce did not dare to neglect.
"I'll set off now. Please take the way. I've been to Tawugang City for the first time and I haven't been to the Imperial Palace. I don't know how to get there." Monta looked at the clothes on his body. Although there was some dust and stains, he could no longer be more appropriate in the case of an "emergency meeting".
"We can take you there and let Lord Mathers take a break."
Mathers looked at Langdon, not knowing what to say. He used to think that the Hall master was a good young man, willing to study, work, and could carry some burdens, but at this moment he was obviously very inexperienced. Needless to say, look at the joyful expression on Earl Monta Marcee's face, the joy of finding a cushion or security, can prove that Langdon was wrong.
"Yes, I just really want to see my brother." Sheila said: "Since the last dinner, I haven't seen him for several months. I usually only contact him by letter. During this period, I have seen a lot of things and met many people. I have a lot of things to say to him..."
Wonderful! Mathers secretly applauded in his heart, and he said, "Your Majesty the Emperor is very busy. Even if you have a lot to say, you have to wait until he has time and summons him. Your Majesty can only give time to your distinguished guests, a member of the future empire, Count Monta Marce. Please don't worry about my body, and can show my efforts through fatigue before His Majesty the Emperor. This opportunity is not often available. Please."
Earl Marce frowned slightly and wanted to speak, but he noticed that Sheila gently kicked her brother's heel, and knew that there was nothing to think about. "Then please let the general manager lead the way." The Earl had no choice but to say.
Earl Marce only brought two guards, part-time attendants, and the others were all stayed. Mathers noticed that he gave a wink at his wife before leaving, but the intelligence manager decided to turn a blind eye. If he exchanged identities, he would wink, but no wink could solve the problem, just like those two guards. If His Majesty the Emperor wanted to do, in this world, perhaps only the goddess could stop him.
Well, maybe Shani has this ability, too.
Feich prepared drinks, snacks and pipes for Monta Marce, which he often regarded as a waste of time recently. When Mathers saw it, he became more uneasy. The more important His Majesty the Emperor attached it, the greater the impact of this matter.
"Can I call you Monta directly? The empire has no aristocratic class, so I don't want to say the word "Earl".
"Of course, you can. After joining the empire, the Count is nothing but the past clouds and mists. Please understand that I am very eager to join, so I call me the way you like."
Feich invited Monta Marce to sit face to face with him, then waved his hand to return the servant. Monta nodded, so his two guards left the room with Mathers. Feich grabbed his chin and signaled Monta to take the food or drink in front of him at will, and then said directly: "I want Bridge Crossing City, completely control there, you can choose another place for yourself and your family."
"Your Majesty, you are so direct." Monta grabbed the teapot and poured himself a cup of hot tea. The water couldn't be drunk, and he didn't want to drink it, but he really needed to move. "Are you dissatisfied with the agreement you have reached?"
"Yes, I'm very dissatisfied. Those two guys were smart and didn't do anything for me. Bridgedu City is very important, but they still left your family there. So, move away and change places!"
"Your Majesty, in Qiaodu City, the news has been announced, and the Marce family will remain. This is the main reason why the locals can maintain stability. They are very conservative and conservative people, and only familiar faces can prevent them from causing trouble."
"If my work group needs your family to maintain order, then they are failures. The failure of the work group is equal to my failure, and I cannot allow failure." Feiqi said: "Besides failure, I also do not allow anyone to feel that it can threaten me. I do not think that there are unfinished trivial matters in the mortal world. It is just a comparison of one method and another for me."
"Your Majesty, can you bring the dead back?" Monta asked suddenly, "Can you let the stone grow food?"
"The two questions you quote are stories in the Goddess of Truth. The Goddess's answer to this is: Think and work hard for yourself. My answer is: Of course." Feiqi then asked, "Why are you moving out of Bridge and Ferry?"
"Your Majesty, that is our hometown, where everyone in our family was born and raised, with rich memories. And, we don't have industries elsewhere like other families. Without Qiaodu City, our family is nothing."
"The working group can assign you a better location," Fitch said.
"Your Majesty, that's not enough," Monta said. "We had an agreement before, which was signed by an official authorized by you. This agreement has been posted in Bridgetown in the form of a notice. I make sure everyone there knows what it is. Are you not going to execute this sacred agreement? Are you going to break the contract?"
