Chapter 1013: The Holy Emperor's Misunderstanding
Shortly after Baal disappeared with Reimer turned into yellow sand, a gust of wind sent Lucius's floatship over the ruined city that had turned into grains of sand.
Seeing the bright red sand grains below, Beludi on the float boat whispered solemnly: "Damn, it looks like we're still late, I didn't expect that the King of Hearts would come so quickly, and even Lucius's affairs in the Western Regions could be put down." ”
When Beludi was stunned and the float boat stayed in the sky, suddenly the void tore a hole, and with the sound of a dragon's groan, three figures tore through the void and arrived.
Seeing the city that had been reduced to sand, especially the scarlet sand on the ground, the three people who rushed to it were all furious.
One of them, a middle-aged man in a gilded dragon robe, roared angrily on his back, and with his roar, the surrounding mountains suddenly shook, as if the heavens and the earth were about to collapse.
The float boat in the sky was originally hidden with a special device, but under the roar of the middle-aged man, the protective membrane of the float boat was directly broken, and the float boat was helplessly presented, which made Beluti on the float feel extremely shocked.
The float boat appeared, and it was immediately discovered by the three people below, the middle-aged man who seemed to have descended from the world as if a real dragon had descended, and shouted angrily at the float boat: "Get out of here." ”
At this moment, Beludi already knew the identity of the person who came, but what she didn't expect was that it was actually the Holy Emperor and the Holy Queen of the Tang Empire, and the elderly man who accompanied them, dressed in cloth, was the master of the academy whose whereabouts everyone did not know.
Beluti knew that the Holy Emperor might have misunderstood, because her float boat did not show up at the first time. Instead, he was shocked by the roar of the Holy Emperor and forced to appear.
In the eyes of the Holy Emperor, he was afraid that he would count the killing of this small city below on his head.
Although Belletti didn't want to cause trouble for Lucius. But now that trouble has come to her door, there is no way for her to dodge.
In desperation, Belletti could only give the order to the mechanical warriors on the floatship to let the floatship slowly fall downward.
After the float landed on the ground, Beluti jumped out of the float and said to the Holy Emperor, "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand, the matter here has nothing to do with us. We also rushed here because we were worried that something would happen here, but we didn't expect the other party to be faster than us. ”
The Holy Emperor was furious at this time. You must know that this city is in the entire Tang Empire, and only the Holy Emperor, the Holy Empress and the Master know about his existence.
Moreover, in order to protect the secrets in the city, the Holy Emperor specially sent the strongest Tiance Army under his command to garrison it, and the soldiers of the Tiance Army guarding here are all soldiers who have followed the Holy Emperor to conquer the Quartet.
Arguably. The Holy Emperor's affection for these soldiers. Maybe even closer than to the children of the royal family.
And in order to prevent this group of garrison soldiers from breaking their roots, the Holy Emperor also specially sent a group of beauties here, so that these garrison soldiers can leave descendants.
The descendants of this group of soldiers are also under the special protection of the Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress, and they are specially able to obtain the training of the master and the martial academy, which can be regarded as making this group of soldiers have no worries at all.
It's not that the second saint and the master haven't thought that the thing suppressed under this city may be known sooner or later. The descendants of the King of Hearts of the Sand Sea Empire will definitely come to retrieve that thing, and the soldiers of the Tiance Army stationed there may not be any opponents of the other party at all.
That's why we prepare early. I have already made up my mind that if the descendants of the King of Hearts appear, this city may be destroyed, and the garrison soldiers may be wiped out.
However, now that it has really happened, it still makes the Holy Emperor feel angry, and what makes the Holy Emperor most angry is that the cities that fought for it were all destroyed, and those soldiers who were ordered to garrison did not even leave a single corpse in the end, and all of them turned into bright red grains of sand.
Looking at Beluti and the floating boat that fell from the sky, the Holy Emperor gradually calmed down and asked in a low voice, "You were sent by Lucius?"
Despite being a mechanical demon, Belletti possesses a complete demonic crystal nucleus, making her intelligence and consciousness almost identical to that of ordinary people.
Except for her metal body, Beludi is almost no different from ordinary people, she also has complex feelings and thoughts, and she also has her own personality and the expression of her various emotions, so she vaguely feels the faint anger in the Holy Emperor's words when he mentions Lucius.
Obviously, the Holy Emperor still has a grudge against Lucius because of the incident in Songjiang City, and has lost the trust he had in Lucius.
Beludi could only bite the bullet at this moment and say, "Your Majesty, we were indeed sent by Lucius, but when we arrived, this place had already been destroyed. ”
The Holy Emperor looked indifferent, stared at Beluti, looked at the float boat again, and asked directly, "Is there any weapon on that ship of yours that can directly destroy this place?" You'd better tell the truth, otherwise I will never let you go, let alone Lucius." ”
Seeing that the Holy Emperor had misunderstood, Beludi could only continue to explain: "The floating boat is indeed equipped with a strong magic energy cannon, if it is fully charged, it can destroy this place with one shot, but the magic energy cannon will be retained when fired, Your Majesty You should be able to feel that there is no residual magic energy here, and this matter really has nothing to do with us." ”
The Holy Emperor, though annoyed, quietly let Belletti finish her explanation, and carefully examined Belletti and the floatship.
When Beludi finished speaking, the Holy Emperor continued to ask, "Then I ask you, why did you go into hiding? Didn't you show up in the first place? If I didn't shock you out, did you plan to flee quietly? You didn't plan to come out to see me at all?"
Seeing the Holy Emperor's aggressiveness, Beludi also felt very helpless, so she could only continue to answer: "Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, we didn't mean to hide our whereabouts, but because we didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, that's why we hid ......."
"Unnecessary trouble? Hehe, speaking of which, does the matter here really have nothing to do with you at all?" Before Beludi finished speaking, the Holy Emperor opened his mouth again and asked: "Then I ask you, the existence here is the secret of my Tang Dynasty, that is, the Immortal Realm and the Buddha Kingdom do not know." How do you know?"
The Holy Emperor's words immediately stopped Beludi, and Beludi didn't know how to answer, after all, some things do explain clearly.
As a matter of fact. Lucius's father did not tell him about the existence of this place, and the reason why Lucius sent Beludi to come in a floatboat was because he had found Reimer's traces through his mechanical reconnaissance bugs, and thought that something big might happen, so he sent Beluti to come.
And, the description of the Luciustone Guò Golden Plate. I also knew about the storage of the sand leak, and felt that Reimer did not find himself to regain the gold plate in the first place, and I am afraid that he should also want to get the sand leak first.
But these things. Beludi said it truthfully, but the Holy Emperor didn't believe a word.
After hearing this, the Holy Emperor sneered and said, "Hehehe, he Lucius is really powerful, he can count so many things. Do you know that the descendants of the King of Hearts will be here?"
Speaking of which. The Holy Emperor couldn't help himself, and shouted directly: "Since he is so powerful, why did Songjiang City pay such a heavy price to defend it in the first place?
Obviously, the Holy Emperor had already decided that the destruction of this city must be related to Lucius, so he did not believe Beludi's explanation.
In the face of the Holy Emperor's distrust, as well as unceremonious rebuke. Beludi also felt very helpless, after Lucius knew that there was an important treasure like the Sand Leak buried here. The first time he sent Belletti to drive the float boat.
Originally, Lucius planned to come in person, but thinking that the Sand Leak was the former weapon of the King of Hearts, he would definitely inherit a special method of subduing.
Even if he came by himself, he was afraid that the result might not be able to stop the King of Hearts, so he simply gave up the time sand leak, and instead chose to rush directly to the city of Luna, intending to take the first step to grab the other Sand Sea Treasures, and then use the four Sand Sea Treasures to enter the Sand Sea Empire.
Lucius's plan is absolutely accurate, and it is almost ahead of its time, and Reimer is too much of the King of Hearts, which is a very safe approach.
In fact, Lucius sent Beludi to come in a floating boat, and the most fundamental purpose was to try to save the Tang soldiers guarding the city.
Lucius, who knew Reimer's anger, knew very well that if the guards fought to the death, they would definitely be killed by Reimer unceremoniously, which was not what Lucius wanted to see, Lucius felt that since these people could be guarded for many years, they were also worthy of respect, and they could not be allowed to die casually.
It's a pity that Lucius didn't expect that he was self-defeating, and Belletti drove the float boat to be a step late, and encountered the second saint and the master who also came in a hurry.
Things went wrong like this, and now the Holy Emperor was furious, and he misunderstood Lucius's intentions, and seemed to think that Lucius might have deliberately destroyed the city to take revenge on the Tang Empire.
Beludi was a little helpless, so she could only say to the Holy Emperor: "Your Majesty, you really misunderstood, the matter here has nothing to do with us, as for the battle in Songjiang City, you should know the situation very well at that time, we also tried our best, aren't you still satisfied with the current result?"
Beludi's words vaguely revealed her dissatisfaction with the Holy Emperor, and the Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress turned their faces directly like that after Lucius paid a huge price to recapture Songjiang City, which really disgusted Belute.
And this disgust and dissatisfaction of Beludi obviously made the Holy Emperor feel it clearly, and the Holy Emperor suddenly said with a cold face: "What? You are just outsiders from the West, do you still want to occupy the land of my Datang? I take back the land that belongs to my Datang, what are you dissatisfied with?"
As soon as the Holy Emperor's words fell, before Beludi could respond, the master suddenly stood up and interjected: "Wait, Your Majesty, you, didn't you say before that Songjiang City was voluntarily given up by Lucius, and you and Niangniang felt that there was no one available, so they let them lead their troops to take over?
Obviously, the Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress did not expect that the Master would grasp this sentence, and the Holy Queen hurriedly said to the Master, "Master, we will discuss this matter later. ”
The Holy Emperor also nodded and said, "Yes, Master, now is not the time to talk about this matter, now we must catch the executioner who destroyed this place." ”
At this time, Beludi finally saw that the Holy Emperor did not believe in Lucius from beginning to end, and thought that Lucius was the one who destroyed this place, and Beluti was the executioner.
Beludi couldn't help but sneer and said: "Okay, very good, it turns out that you, the emperor of the Tang Empire, actually didn't believe us from the beginning, when your empire encountered a huge crisis, if it weren't for us, would you be able to survive that crisis?"
The Holy Emperor simply stopped being polite at this time, and said very directly: "Hmph, now I suspect that those crises at the beginning may have been created by you and the Immortal Realm Buddha Kingdom, and the purpose was to seek to seize my empire. ”
Without waiting for Beludi to speak, the master took two steps forward and said: "Your Majesty, this can't be nonsense, the original situation, in fact, we all know very well, that matter has been planned by the Immortal Realm and the Buddha Kingdom for a long time, and it has nothing to do with Lucius and them at all. ”
The Holy Emperor was already riding a tiger at this time, and out of the dignity of the emperor, it was impossible for him to bow his head at such a time, so he could only say very firmly: "Master, some things can't just be seen on the surface, you are still too kind, don't be deceived by these Westerners." ”
The master was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect the Holy Emperor to say this to himself, you must know that in the eyes of everyone before, the master was the wisest person in the Tang Empire.
At this moment, under this situation, the master has already seen that the Holy Emperor no longer trusts Lucius at all, no matter what the reason is, but the Holy Emperor must not believe in Lucius, and regards Lucius as the primary enemy of the entire Tang Empire.
Therefore, the Holy Emperor will have a preconceived idea that everything involved with Lucius will be regarded as a conspiracy of Lucius.
The Master was puzzled, and did not understand why the Holy Emperor's attitude had suddenly changed, he had always trusted and valued Lucius before.
But at this time, it has become like this, and he completely regards Lecius as an enemy, and even his hostility towards Lecius goes beyond the immortal realm and the Buddha kingdom, which is really incomprehensible to the master.
Seeing that the Holy Emperor was already about to make a move on Beludi, the master took two steps forward to stop the Holy Emperor, and at the same time said to Beluti: "Okay, today's matter is here first, you go back to Lucius first, and tell him to go back to Chang'an City, where we will wait for him to explain." ”
The Holy Emperor was obviously annoyed when he was blocked by his master, but the Holy Emperor knew the strength of his master, and he also knew very well that the Tang Empire needed his master.
Therefore, the Holy Emperor did not seem to tear his face with his master, but could only watch Belletti retreat to the floating boat, and later the floating boat directly lifted off and left.
After the float boat left, the Holy Emperor angrily rebuked the master: "Master, why are you stopping me? Don't you see that this place is destroyed and has nothing to do with that float boat, you should arrest them first and detain them, and then Lucius will obediently obey." ”
In fact, now the master is also a little confused, in fact, the master's trust in Lucius has been reserved from beginning to end, and the suspicion of Lucius cannot be completely ruled out at this time.
But the master is more calm, and he still doesn't want to tear his face directly with Lucius, after all, the master of Lucius's strength has seen it, and he also feels that if he wants to deal with the fairy realm and the Buddha country, Lucius is an indispensable help.
The master opened his mouth to persuade the Holy Emperor: "Your Majesty, we must find out about this matter, Lucius is still useful to us, we shouldn't tear our faces directly with him now, and besides, that floating boat, and that organist, even if they are detained, it is impossible to threaten Lucius." ”
After listening to the master's persuasion, the Holy Emperor gradually calmed down, glanced at the bright red sand on the ground, and said very sadly: "I will not settle this account like this. ”
With that, the Holy Emperor directly tore through the void and disappeared, and the Holy Queen left without saying a word, leaving the master standing in place and sighing. (To be continued......)
