Chapter 607 Variables III
Outside the Emerald Palace, Dean and the Emerald Grand Duke walked one after the other.
Grand Duke Jade's hand was still on Dean's arm, and he let Dean lead him forward, feeling a little out of his mind, or rather sluggish.
Dean turned his head to look at Grand Duke Jade.
Being betrayed by one's only family member is absolutely uncomfortable.
He had a similar feeling, so he understood Grand Duke Jade's state at this time.
So, didn't say much.
He just made a silence gesture towards the Grand Duke's swordsman and guard who came running over, and then gently pulled his arm out of Grand Duke Jade's palm.
And this seems to have awakened the Emerald Grand Duke.
With a tremor, Grand Duke Jade raised his head and looked at Dean.
"Dean..."
"Your Highness, leave everything to me!"
Grand Duke Jade wanted to say something, but Dean said it first.
"Teach those guys a lesson, really, a bunch of despicable and shameless guys!"
The Grand Duke's bodyguard on the side gestured his fist angrily.
"Irene!"
The Grand Duke's swordsman frowned and patted his friend. The Grand Duke's bodyguard wanted to say something, but after seeing Grand Duke Emerald, he couldn't say anything.
"I want to rest... Dean if you can... please!"
Grand Duke Jade wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, leaving only a word of please.
Then, Grand Duke Emerald, accompanied by the Grand Duke's chief swordsman and chief guard. Walking out together, on the side of the palace, a carriage belonging to Grand Duke Jade was already waiting there.
Dean watched the carriage leave. Then, he turned around and walked outside the palace.
In order to save time, he and the Grand Duke Swordsman came directly on foot instead of taking a carriage.
therefore,
Returning at this time, Dean also needs to walk.
Dean walked alone in the palace without any guards or waiters to stop him. Or... After the guards and waiters saw Dean from a distance, they consciously walked around.
Obviously. In just ten minutes, what happened in the parliament hall has spread throughout the palace.
And, predictably. In the next few hours, this matter will spread throughout the Emerald City and be known by those people.
Dean didn't mind that.
Even, willingly so!
There are some things Dean doesn't need to hide.
Just like before, he openly supported Grand Duke Jade.
It's not a secret he's hiding from himself or something he can't tell.
Rather, this is what he thought in his heart.
If he was allowed to make false claims with the Marquis of York, the young king, and the nobles against his will, if there was no Grand Duke Emerald. Dean might consider it.
But the Grand Duke Emerald exists.
Therefore, everything becomes very simple.
As for the consequences of this?
Dean naturally knew it well.
Except that he will be greatly criticized personally, the entire Zelgon family will be squeezed out again.
Of course. That's not to say he doesn't have allies.
At least the sick Hermankuster will also stand by his side.
And the other party is also one of the few people in the entire emerald capital who can see the whole situation clearly.
In the face of Xi Ti's provocation, should not be tolerated, and should be counterattacked directly?
Although such words are exciting, they are not in line with the actual situation.
If it is really a jadeite like an iron plate, there is naturally no problem in doing so. But now Emerald?
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is riddled with holes!
Greedy nobleman.
The ring of Mobius with ulterior motives.
The brotherhood that sees everything and wanders away from it.
And big and small. What Dean knows and doesn't know is where the organization is distributed.
These forces are all waiting for the opportunity to 'go one step further'.
And war is undoubtedly the best opportunity.
‘Do you think I can’t do anything without you? '
The young king's words came to mind again, and Dean smiled softly.
"Of course you can, you must know that you are definitely being closely watched now-they want you to help!"
As if talking to himself, Dean walked out of the palace.
Walk down the big slope slowly.
However, when Dean walked to the big square in front of the Emerald Palace, a figure came up from the bottom and just blocked Dean's face.
This is an elderly man.
It can be seen from his gray beard and hair, but his smooth and rosy face is like a baby, especially with a gentle smell on his body, which makes people feel very comfortable. When the benevolent eyes look at you, you will always be immersed in it involuntarily, pouring out the depression and sorrow in your heart. It was like facing the most respected elder.
However, Dean looked at each other with indifference.
"Your Excellency Zelgon!"
The seemingly kind and benevolent elder greeted Dean in an unexpected tone.
"Private Bishop Remo!"
Dean responded with a sneer.
Lei Mo, one of the two major privy bishops of the Divine Cult, sits in the four northern counties of Emerald.
The other party seemed to be a kind and benevolent elder, but being able to be sent by the high priest to take charge of everything in the Emerald North of the Cult was enough to explain the problem.
In other words, it is everything that God teaches in the entire emerald.
In the south, under the command of Grand Duke Emerald, it is difficult for the forces of the divine religion to intervene.
In fact, according to the original history, when the God Cult annexed the Ring of Mobius, there were only two privy bishops, and seven appeared in one fell swoop.
Among the seven, Lei Mo was the one with the most respected status.
Only weaker than the manager of the cult: the high priest.
Even, the other party is in charge of the "dark hall" of the divine religion. Known as the high priest in the light and in the shadows.
And to be able to achieve this level, the other party naturally cannot be a soft-hearted person.
At least, the downfall of emerald in history. There is also a credit for the other party.
"Your Excellency Zelgang, it's really just like the rumors! Not only is he proud of himself, but he is also so loyal to His Highness Alunek that he is willing to give up such a good opportunity!"
Privy Bishop Remo said slowly.
"Opportunity? In my opinion, it's nothing more than greed and ignorance!"
Dean sneered again and answered the other party.
"Really? Your Excellency Zelgang, you are really too proud... You don't think that Jade will not be able to function without you, right?"
The elder Privy Bishop laughed.
"Of course not! After all, you are here. It is enough to explain everything!"
Dean shook his head.
"I originally planned to work with you!"
As if very sorry, the elderly Privy Bishop sighed.
"But I don't have the slightest interest in it!"
Dean said with certainty.
Then, the two involuntarily took another step forward at the same time. Just passed by like this.
Dean stared ahead, as if he didn't notice the Privy Bishop behind him at all.
And the same goes for the elder Privy Bishop.
However, at the step where the two passed each other, it shattered silently and turned into a puddle of powder.
Then the summer wind blows, and the powder and dust quietly disappear in the wind.
And that step seemed to not exist at all.
Dean walked down slowly, and when he walked out of the square, he stopped and raised his left hand——
The part outside the palm. There are some jet black.
It seemed to be black after being tainted by flames.
"Use the flame as the 'road' to drive the 'sacred fire'..."
Dean whispered to himself, and then. Quietly watching the blackness, under his own powerful self-recovery ability, he recovered quickly.
Dean narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the opponent's 'power' carefully.
At the entrance of the palace, Lei Mo also stopped in his tracks, at this moment. His left arm and even half of his body were already covered in frost, in this scorching summer. Braving the slightest bit of cold air, the surrounding space was dragged straight into Shujiu's cold winter.
"Zelgon...is worthy of being a descendant of the Frost King!"
Looking at the frost on his body, the elder Privy Bishop said slowly.
Then, a bottle of 'holy water' shining with white light appeared in his right hand.
Pulling off the cork, the shining 'holy water' in the bottle was poured directly on the frost.
Immediately, the thick frost exuding coldness instantly thawed.
The elder privy bishop shook his sleeves and steamed them dry, then walked slowly into the palace and walked towards the parliament hall.
...
When Dean was about to leave the emerald capital, he was stopped by an unexpected person——
"Hey, big shot, long time no see!"
Oilo appeared in front of Dean with a smile and hugged his shoulders, saying hello.
Standing beside him is the 'Strong One' Sirik.
"Welcome to the Emerald City!"
Dean was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that the two of them should represent Gao Sai to participate in the "Midsummer Night Ceremony" in the Emerald City.
"Is it just a verbal welcome? As a landlord, don't you have a real expression? Thanks to me, I still have a lot of expectations!"
Oilo looked at Dean with a slightly 'resentful' look.
"Come on, go to my territory, let me do my best as a landlord!"
Dean said with a smile.
"my pleasure!"
Oilo, who had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, immediately nodded repeatedly, and the "Strong Man" Sirik beside him was even more straightforward, turning around and walking towards the gate of the emerald capital.
Dean and Oilo smiled at each other and followed quickly.
And a figure was looming in the crowd. After seeing the departure of the three of Dean, he hesitated for a moment. Instead of catching up, he disappeared into the crowd and quickly disappeared.
