Chapter 137 The King’s Man(1/2)

 The special envoy reported everything that happened in the trial court in detail.

The four top Trollians fell silent after hearing this.

After a long time, someone finally spoke.

"King."

Archbishop Horus's voice was very soft, filled with deep sorrow:

"Did Miss Qingyu, who has always been gentle and kind, turn out to be such a vicious and indifferent person? She hid it so deeply that she actually deceived all of us."

The first defense minister, Yovis Dalin, who was sitting next to him, took a deep drag on his cigarette.

This is a middle-aged man with a tough complexion, with a square face and a thick brown beard. He looks very majestic. Years of busy military service have made his temples gray, giving him a sense of desolation.

His voice is as cold as his face.

"Jon has always adhered to the iron-blooded mentality, so among the three candidates, only Starsong is left."

The first elder, Armando, is a dying old man. His cloudy eyeballs and wrinkles on his face make people worry that he will fall down and die at any time. As soon as he opens his mouth, old age will burst out along with death.

"We accept death, but we do not tolerate meaningless death. Jon must prove that his method is effective. The most important thing in walking the tightrope is balance, not extreme."

Wang pondered for a moment: "I think things are not what we thought. Maybe there are other reasons."

Armando's cloudy eyes stared at their king.

He grew up watching this legendary leader, and it was only with his strong recommendation that he ascended the throne of Fire.

His correct choice allowed Trolian to prosper for twenty years, which was his lifelong pride.

He also firmly believes that he will make the right choice to make the next important choice that will affect Trorian's future destiny.

"King, it doesn't matter what the reason is. If the chief judge is murdered in the trial hall, the murderer must be executed. This is the law of the royal city and the rules cannot be changed."

Wang remained silent and did not answer.

At this moment, an urgent letter flew over and landed in the king's hands.

He unfolded the letter and read it quickly.

Horus asked: "King, has something happened in the City of Stars?"

The king shook his head and smiled: "This is Jon's letter. He is interceding for Rhodes."

Pass the letter to others and ask after they have read it, "What do you think?"

A smile appeared on Armando's wrinkled face:

"Jon has matured a lot. He must be kind even under cruelty. He has mastered the principle of balance."

Dalin was silent, smoking his cigarette puff after puff.

Horus frowned: "This is just to win over people's hearts. I felt the icy coldness between the lines of his words. He is weighing interests like a machine."

Armando moved his old eyes towards this archbishop who was also full of legend.

"Horus, the most important quality of the king is ruthlessness. He is not swayed by any emotions. He always only considers the overall situation and the interests of mankind, but also takes into account the feelings of other people. He is ruthless but affectionate. This is the most difficult thing to do.

Jon already has some prototypes."

Although he looked at the archbishop, Wang knew that these words were meant for him.

Armando and the group of elders he represents hope that he can be more ruthless and not let the fire of hope that has finally been ignited in the hearts of everyone in Trolian be extinguished.

But only Wang knows the real reason for Trorian's problems in recent years.

At this moment, the fire in the royal hall flickered, and Qing Yu, dressed in a blue robe, fell from the sky and landed in front of them.

This is the privilege of the king candidates. They can contact or meet with Trorian's highest power center at any time.

"King, Your Excellency the Archbishop, Your Excellency the First Defense Minister, Your Excellency the First Elder, and Guardian Qingyu have an audience."

Armando's brows immediately wrinkled, and his face, which was already full of wrinkles, now looked more like a shrunken orange.

"Qingyu, why are you here? You should stay in your castle at all times while the black tide lasts."

Qingyu bowed slightly.

"Your Excellency Armando, please release Rhodes immediately. The incident in the Tribunal was my instruction, and I will bear all the responsibility for the crime."

Armando's tone suddenly became very unkind: "What if I don't let go?"

Qingyu raised her head, and the firelight in the royal hall shone on her beautiful face, which was as dazzling as the sun. She smiled, and it was like a sudden flash of light on the lake:

"Your Excellency Armando, although our current session is stronger than before, the number of candidates is very small. You don't want to miss one of the only three candidates, right?"

——

Tribunal.

Dark prison.

Rhodes was a little worried.

The knowledge of communicating with living souls does not belong to dream knowledge, so the book of knowledge requires a fee.

The reward this strange book usually asks for is various gemstones, from the lowest level red stone to the black crystal, ruby, radiant stone, sun stone, and sun crystal, which are all within the scope of its recipes.

Depending on the rarity of the knowledge and the difficulty of obtaining it, the level and quantity of gems required vary.

The price given for the knowledge of "Soul Negotiation" is twenty rubies.

It's not particularly expensive, probably worth about two thousand silver cords.

But the supplies stored in the dream no longer have this item, and Rhodes has no way to go out and buy it now. He can only put this soul away for a while.

He exited the dreamland and took a look at the cell where there was no movement before returning to the dreamland.

After all, the environment here is not very safe, so it’s better to be careful.

For a period of time after that, Rhodes has been studying the Book of Knowledge.

You can only rely on yourself to learn dream texts. The Book of Knowledge can give the meaning and grammar of each word in dream texts, as well as its detailed learning methods.

But these explanations, grammar and learning methods use dream words.

It’s so damn toxic.

Do I need to master this language to learn this language?

I’ve already mastered it and I’m still learning a thing.

Therefore, Rhodes could only use ancient language to work backwards and then guess its grammar based on the context of language evolution.

This is a very difficult thing, but no matter how difficult it is, he must continue to do it. Dreams are his fundamental support, and the section he is studying now is the knowledge about the invasion that he most urgently wants to know.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

When Rhodes returned to the material world again, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the cell door.

A few seconds later, a burly white-haired man appeared in front of you.

Isn't this the white wolf next to Miss Qingyu?

Rhodes felt a little happy.

You came to save me so soon?

Bai Lang looked at him indifferently. The jailer did not follow him, and the cell was empty.

"Rhode, why do you want to kill the justice?"

Rhodes was slightly shocked.

What do you mean by this? If you start with such words, are you trying to burn bridges? Could it be that the gentle and lovely-looking Miss Qingyu is pink and black?

No, this is unlikely.

In the flash of lightning in his mind, he immediately thought of a possibility and replied: "Why can't he kill? His hands are covered with blood and he has killed so many companions and comrades. If the Tribunal cannot give me justice, I will give him justice."

."

Bai Lang stared at him and said coldly: "Do you know? What you do is seeking death. The chief judge is one of the middle and high-level officials in the kingdom. He is only one step away from becoming the supreme judge. You are in the hall that symbolizes the law.

Killing a judicial judge in public will be considered a provocation to the king's law. You are dead and no one can save you!"

Rhodes sneered: "You are so stupid, really."

Bai Lang looked at him with an evil look: "What did you say?"

Rhodes looked at him without fear:

"You have to know that dead people are worthless. Gregor is so despicable and despicable. I don't believe he has a high prestige. Once he dies, all power will collapse. As long as you thoroughly dig out all his secrets, it is impossible to find that he is Doomsday." Evidence of believers."

"Why am I guilty of killing a doomsday cultist? This is called killing first and then showing off. Strike first to gain the upper hand. You don't understand this. Get out of here as soon as possible. Miss Qingyu, let me assist you. I am the man who can become the king. ."

White Wolf's entire face turned pale, and he growled filial piety: "Do you still want to be the king?"

Rhodes looked at him with disdain: "You are stupid and you still don't believe me. The moment Miss Qingyu ascended the throne, I became her man. Isn't that the king's man?"

The white wolf's expression suddenly became very strange, and the muscles on his face seemed to be distorted.

"You're dreaming!"
