The sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the empty hall, and the opulent corridors were lined with famous paintings from various regions and periods.

Every such famous painting is a priceless existence. They are the essence of human and elven art, and they are the treasures of the world.

In the middle of those famous paintings, there are all kinds of elven artworks, which are all presented by the elves, and they are definitely hard to find outside.

A total of twelve crystal chandeliers with seven floors are hung in a straight line on the roof of this promenade, making the roof of the ten-meter-high carved beams and paintings not abrupt at all.

Everything here flaunts the wealth of the royal family, and hundreds of attendants and maids are needed just to keep this palace running.

The whole palace has more than 30 large and small palaces, thousands of rooms, if you count the outer palace walls and security buildings, covering an area of ancient and modern, it can be called great.

You must know that there are no large-scale buildings such as the Forbidden City and the Forbidden City in this world, and it is already a breathtaking thing to be able to build the imperial palace bigger than the previous cities.

At this moment, the Emperor of the Irlanhill Empire was not in his palace, so this most luxurious complex built in human history seemed empty at this moment.

The flagpole of the sacred Imperial Royal Plaza of the Irlanhill Empire has only the black golden eagle flag, which symbolizes the eternal existence of the empire, and there is no blood-colored battle flag representing the emperor.

On the lower flagpoles around them, the black vine flag, the black iron sword flag, and the black orchid flag were not raised, which means that the elven princess Andrea, the princess of Higgs, Luna, and the commoner princess Jessica of the Elven Hill Empire have also gone out and not returned.

Only the Black Magic Gem banner representing Princess Grican fluttered in the wind at the top of one of the flagpoles.

Vivien wore a long black dress, and the fluffy style did not fully set off her wonderful figure.

However, this skirt is still elegant, and when worn on her body, it highlights an aura of divine majesty. Paired with the armband-like jeweled bracelet on her wrist, her whole body shines.

"Has the news been sent to Your Majesty?" With hurried steps, Vivien asked the maid who followed behind her.

"It's been sent out." The maid followed behind Vivien, and immediately replied cautiously when she heard the question.

"......" Vivien did not speak, but after passing through the corridor, she casually motioned to dispense with the salute of the soldiers on both sides who had helped push open the door carved with the embossed pattern.

She walked through the palace and walked up the stone steps like white jade to the car that was already waiting in front of the steps.

The white-gloved waiter opened the door of the heavy royal Mansger bulletproof car, and his elegant gesture was meticulous.

Vivien slipped into the car, the doors closed, and the surging engine roared, barely audible inside the car.

The floppy sofa and tuned shock absorption were barely noticeable from the engine, and Vivien's car moved forward as the motorcycles and the guard's cars began to move slowly.

In the early morning, there were not many people walking around the streets, and the sprinkler avoided the flashing police lights on the royal motorcycle.

On the clean streets, a row of black cars whizzed by, and sanitation workers looked curiously at the distant motorcade with brooms.

Vivien, who was sitting in the car, rubbed her forehead a little irritably, and then out of the corner of her eye, she saw the gem-encrusted armband-style bracelet she was wearing on her wrist.

She frowned slightly, then took off the priceless bracelet and casually threw it on the back sofa of the car next to her.

By the time the car came to a halt and the doors were opened, Vivien had nothing to do with her arms.

Surrounded by a group of frustrated people, she walked into Gullo's mansion and asked, "How is it going?" ”

"I've been using instruments and drugs to take my last breath...... But, but now, I'm afraid it won't work. One of the leading doctors followed Vivien's side to introduce the situation while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

Of course, he knew how important this old man was. The medical technology of the Irlanhill Empire has been quite developed, especially the high-end medical technology, as long as there is money, life can be greatly extended.

It's just that the situation of Old Man Gurlo is a bit special, he belongs to the type that wants to die. The doctors here know that the total price of the medical equipment that has been brought to Gullo's mansion is not much worse than that of a spaceship.

What's more, in order to keep the old man breathing and maintain his vital signs, the drugs used every day are almost calculated in kilograms or even tons when converted into gold!

Even so, this morning, several doctors on duty found that even the sky-high price of medicine could not sustain Gullo's life.

"What about Dean William? He hasn't got that technology done yet? Vivien looked to the other side, a technician in a lab coat.

The bespectacled man shook his head slightly, his face very heavy. Theoretically, they should have come up with the damn device two months ago, but until now, the experiment still hasn't guaranteed a success rate of more than 70%.

This level of overdue has already made the engineers of the Magic Technology Research Institute disgraced, and if they really want to be investigated, they will also be responsible for the death of Old Man Gurlo.

"It seems that the gods have not blessed their believers." Vivien continued on until she reached Gullo's hospital room.

"Irrelevant people just wait here!" She turned her head slightly, glanced at the person behind her, and then said, "Useful people come with me." ”

When she walked into the room, she found that there were two doctors operating the equipment, and on the monitor that showed the old man's heartbeat and respiratory pulse, the lines representing fluctuations had become infinitely straight.

In fact, even the average wealthy family had already given up on this pointless treatment two months ago.

"Can you hold out until Your Majesty returns?" Vivien stared at the old man Gullo, who was already out of shape, and asked in a low voice.

Several doctors looked at each other and shook their heads. The head doctor sighed and replied, "We've done our best, probably, within this hour." ”

Vivien was silent for a moment, then ordered, "Try to wake him up!" ”
