Chapter 338 The War Continues as Usual

In the capital of the Ryan Empire, the obituary of Rachel Angelo has been passed to the emperor.

After reading the above account, the young Ryan Emperor angrily crumpled the paper into a ball.

"Damn the undead! He should not have been given a pardon from the beginning, otherwise the situation today would not have happened!"

Rachel Angelo was the general who supported the Ryan royal family the most, and also the one with the highest status and the highest power among those who supported the Ryan royal family.

The death of Rachel Angelo meant that the royalist party lost a general.

The emperor had originally thought that the battle of the Unholy Song would allow him to come to the fore again, no longer a puppet emperor, but a great emperor who truly held power.

As a result, Rachel Angelo died before the war officially started? !

Would anyone think that this was the emperor's fault?

No, this situation must not happen. Now he urgently needs a scapegoat... No, what scapegoat, it was not his fault in the first place, it was that lich, and that traitor Alan Watson.

That's right, Alan Watson teamed up with the lich and designed to kill Rachel Angelo. The amnesty was also issued by James Watson. It must be this family who teamed up to kill Rachel Angelo.

There is no doubt that there is no need to discuss it at all, just convict directly.

However, James Watson is the Supreme Judgment. According to Ryan's rules, he is the highest interpreter of all laws. If you want to judge such a person, the process is not ordinary complicated.

The young emperor pondered for a while and said to himself: "Let's spread this news first. At that time, the whole Ryan people will ask this Supreme Judgment to give an explanation. At that time, just incite it casually, and public opinion will completely kill him. Now just..."

Just thinking about how to deal with the stubborn old man, he suddenly heard a notice that the Supreme Judgment asked for an audience.

The little emperor was shocked.

"This old guy, did he guess that I was going to deal with him?"

Although he has the advantage now, the little emperor is still a little afraid of James Watson.

Because since he became the emperor, he has been humiliated in front of James Watson more than once, and that is why he hates this upright old man so much and wishes he could change him now.

The little emperor felt guilty and was a little afraid that James Watson would come to question him, so he couldn't help but want to refuse the meeting.

He couldn't see him now, at least he had to wait until public opinion fermented and everyone despised this old man, so that he would have the confidence to face him.

What the little emperor didn't expect was that James Watson seemed to have known that he would do this a long time ago. After being rejected, he asked the waiter to deliver a letter to the little emperor.

The little emperor looked at the envelope in his hand and asked in confusion: "That old guy, what else did he say besides the letter?"

The waiter knelt in front of the little emperor and answered cautiously: "Nothing was said, the Supreme Judge turned around and left."

The little emperor opened the letter in doubt, thinking that no matter what the old man wrote, the pot must be his.

However, after reading the letter, the little emperor was shocked that he was bewitched. But after reading it over and over again, there was nothing wrong.

The letter was just a few sentences long.

James Watson decided to resign from the position of Supreme Judge and decided to exile himself and leave Ryan.

The reason was that Allen was suspected of treason and murdered Rachel Angelo. As a father, he was suspected of covering up if he continued to serve as the Supreme Judge, and he needed to be judged by other people who had no interests.

This statement was in line with the old man's usual style.

The law is supreme, and there is no room for selfishness or compromise.

This resignation letter was reasonable, but the little emperor couldn't believe it.

Would this old man give up the position of Supreme Judge so easily? No one would believe it if he told it out.

But no matter what, getting this letter meant that the little emperor had completely controlled this old man. No matter what conspiracy he had, he could now legitimately replace him with someone of his own.

The little emperor told everyone in the imperial capital the news in the fastest way, and asked someone to write a "sincere and heartfelt" letter of retention. When announcing James Watson's resignation, he also read the letter with emotion.

This is to tell everyone that it was not him, the emperor, who forced him to resign. He did "try his best" to retain him, but the former Supreme Judgment repeatedly refused his retention, so he left on his own.

Originally, he wanted to help him hold a farewell party. After all, he has worked hard for the empire for so many years and deserves a grand farewell ceremony.

But unfortunately, the old man has left Ryan.

And the little emperor firmly stated that he would not implicate Allen's family because of his treasonous behavior, and his brothers and sisters and other relatives would not be held accountable.

Those Ryan people loudly praised the emperor's kindness, and at the same time cursed the Watson family ten thousand times in their hearts.

Raising a traitor son, this Supreme Judgment must have a problem.

This is also what the little emperor wants to see. He has already sent people to spread such news, just to make James Watson never come back.

Now, the goal has been achieved, and the Supreme Judgment can be replaced, but the candidate can still be studied slowly. Let the deputy take over for the time being, and replace him when he has chosen someone.

Everything was perfect. The death of an imperial general was overshadowed by the resignation of the Supreme Judge. The storm of public opinion that was supposed to occur quickly dissipated, and the Watson family became despised by everyone.

But no matter how beautifully these superficial things are solved, the little emperor still has to deal with an important problem.

With Rachel Angelou dead, what will happen to the war on Unholy Anthem?

armistice? This seems to be a very right choice.

But this time there is a truce, I don’t know when the next attack on Unclean Ode will be. When everyone calms down and forgets about James Watson as the scapegoat, they may think of the little emperor.

When the time comes, there will most likely be noise in those songs of praise.

The little emperor wanted to discuss such a big matter with someone, but he suddenly found that he didn't have anyone to discuss it with.

When James Watson was here before, the little emperor didn't mind chatting with him.

This old man is a bit stubborn, but the little emperor also believes that his suggestions are without any selfish motives. In fact, everyone in Lane knows that this supreme judge has been working for so many years, and there has never been anything that can be questioned. , except his son.

Even if he gets a sarcastic answer, the little emperor doesn't mind listening to the old man's words, at least it can be used as a reference.

But now that James Watson is gone, the little emperor realizes that he has no confidants.

He has been emperor for too long and has always been a puppet. Now it is really difficult to find someone with whom he can talk about serious matters.

After thinking for a long time, the little emperor could only crawl into the basement of the palace again and find the group of old guys lying in the coffin.

They all fell into a deep dream, reduced all consumption of their bodies, and managed to survive while still maintaining clear thinking.

The Ryan royal family cannot live longer, and the old people can only survive in this way. The little emperor also obtained permission from them before, allowing him to use the magic dragon weapon.

Although I don’t know why these old guys suddenly agreed to let him use the magic dragon weapon, in any case, it gave him the power to step onto the stage.

Now, the empire is about to undergo a big change, and the little emperor can only ask these old guys questions again.

There are special waiters who send the little emperor's questions into the dream. These waiters are actually of royal blood. They have all tested the induction with the magic dragon's weapons. If they fail, they will learn the spell to communicate with the dream and be sent here to take care of them. These old zombies.

It didn't take long for those old people to give a simple reply - to continue the war of unclean chants.

The little emperor wanted to ask the reason, but was refused by the waiter.

Every time they respond to realistic questions, it is a burden for these old guys. If it happens again, they may not be able to bear it.

The little emperor had no choice but to grit his teeth and leave the basement.

These old guys have always been like this, treating him as a puppet who only obeys orders.

"When I regain control of the empire, I will dig out all you old guys. I want to see if you dare to be so rude to me when you wake up!"

Although he only got an unreasonable conclusion, the little emperor could only follow this request for the time being.

There is no big problem in continuing to attack Unclean Ode. It's just that one general is missing. Just transfer another one from somewhere else. When the time comes, as long as you use the magic dragon's weapons, the battle will be won.

Lane began to redeploy his troops, and these large-scale changes in troops could not be hidden from anyone.

Unclean Ode quickly got the news, but those tieflings probably don't have time to deal with this issue now.

In the royal capital where the singing never ends, Domino Lawley and the other twelve unclean people looked at the report in front of them with gloomy expressions.

What is written above is not the mobilization of troops by the Lions, but the recent rumors of the appearance of unclean hymns.

The Unjust Council signed a contract with the Lords of Hell, selling the entire kingdom as a price in exchange for them not being tortured and becoming the nobles of Hell.

There are no details in this news, it seems like a random rumor.

But all members of the Injustice Council knew that this was not a lie.

Domino Lawley stood up angrily and smashed the table in front of him into pieces with one punch.

"Who leaked the news!"

Domino Lawley looked at the other twelve Unclean Ones with sharp eyes, but none of them flinched. They were just thoughtful, surprised, and worried.

These reactions are normal, after all, their biggest secret is known.

Domino Lawley couldn't see the flaws in their faces and couldn't help but frown tightly.

An old tiefling next to Domino Lawley said: "Domino, we are all participants in the plan. We cannot leak the news in advance. This will only make ourselves go to hell in advance. Now is not the time to pursue this issue. , let’s consider how we should deal with it first.”

Domino Lawley was silent for a moment, then said: "You're right, but how do we solve this problem?"

The rumors are currently only circulating among some high-level officials and nobles. Although they are not widely circulated, they perfectly fit the current war situation.

Ryan is eager to invade at any time, and there are many clues to hell in the kingdom. As long as someone is interested in investigating, they will soon find the clues. Even if they couldn't prove the rumor, it would make them more suspicious.

How to deal with such true rumors?

Someone suggested: "Let's make a statement. Regardless of whether it's useful or not, let's announce that nothing happened."

Domino Lawley shook his head and said: "It's useless. They are not civilians. They are all nobles who know the news. Most of them are lords of different cities."

"Put it off if you can. Ryan is about to invade anyway. When the war starts, everything will be a foregone conclusion. By then it will be too late for them to ask."

This is a feasible suggestion, as long as you keep it secret for a while. But when will Ryan invade? I heard that one of their generals just died. If they give up the war, delaying tactics will be of no use.

They, the unclean ones, sacrificed the entire kingdom to allow a few people to gain immunity and not be tortured in hell. If people knew about it, they might turn around and destroy the gate of hell, and then let them These powerful people are in hell.

Not to mention that you will die even if Ryan invades. Most people will not think of it that far away and will only choose to rebel first.

"We have to proceed in three parts. Not only do we have to claim that nothing happened, we also have to investigate Ryan's exact situation, and finally... find the person who spread the news!"

Domino Lawley now hated the person who spread the rumor so much that he wished he could make that person a specimen right now.

The meeting ended quickly, and Domino Lawley rubbed his tired head and returned to his room.

Just as she entered the door, she saw a white-haired old man.

Domino Lawley said in surprise: "Misfortune, is it you?"

The old man who had been waiting here for a long time was naturally Mr. Fortune. He looked at the charming lady in front of him and said with a smile: "Domino, long time no see."

Domino Lawley took a nervous step back, ready to call for the guards.

Although she is a legend, she has lived in peace and quiet for many years and has not made any moves with anyone for a long time. Now she is an alchemist and the leader of a kingdom, no longer the Hell Knight.

Mr. Doom has repeatedly sabotaged their actions to build the Gate of Hell due to his disagreement with their ideals. He has been defined as a traitor and is on the wanted list.

The sudden appearance now made Domino Lawley very uneasy.

However, no matter how she gestured to the guard outside the door, he remained indifferent, as if he couldn't see her.

Mr. Fortune smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, Domino. I'm not here to assassinate you, so don't waste your efforts. No one will see you and me today."

Domino Lawley couldn't believe it and wanted to escape, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't leave the room.

"I said, it's useless. Domino, I'm here, I just want to tell you one thing." Mr. Doom walked up to Domino Lawley and said: "The person who spread the news is me, you people's deal with hell I understand everything."

Domino Lawley's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "How did you know?!"

Mr. Doom shook his head and said: "That's not important. I just want to tell you that I will save this kingdom, but I can't save you. Domino, I once loved you, and you were like the sun in the sky to me." Dazzling. But now, I must destroy everything you have planned. The Kingdom of the Unholy Anthem will not go to hell, but you and your shameless companions will.

"Now, I can give you a chance. You can choose one of your descendants to stay. This is the only thing I can do for you. Domino, you choose one."
