Fao was stunned, according to what Amon said, he really wanted to talk to a high-level member of the empire who could talk, but he didn't expect to be able to call out the lord of the empire.This was really unexpected.At the unknown level, Amon is also confused, it's like two people playing cards, I'm still thinking about playing a pair of threes, try it, and the opposite side will throw the king out of the bomb, not according to the routine at all!
Simply, he had seen the world after all, but for a moment of sluggishness, he understood that the previous preparation methods were no longer appropriate, but this was a better opportunity.After a little thought, he contacted Fa'o, and after a breath, his body jumped and directly entered Fa'o's body.After another breath, Fao was no longer Fao, but Amon, only he still played the role of Fao.To outsiders, Fao was just stunned for a moment, and then looked up at His Majesty the Emperor again, the waves in his eyes had subsided and became as deep as an ocean.With a confession, Amon went to the inner room of the study, his clothes had burst under Savalon's temptation, and he needed to be changed, otherwise it would be rude to meet His Majesty the Emperor shirtless.Of course, this is an excuse, since the emperor has arrived, as long as the follow-up is a finalized promise, there is no going back, so Amon needs some time to smooth out his train of thought.On the other side, Savaloon also leaned in front of the emperor and whispered.Amon didn't eavesdrop, but thanks to his keen senses at this time, he still roughly heard some words, Savalon's report on Fao's situation is not a legend, but he has a physique that surpasses the legend, if he can really advance, his combat power will be limitless and so on.And Pompey IX listened, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not speak.About five minutes later, the two sides sat down again, but it was Pompey IX who was the first to speak: "I know that the incident in Thundering City this time is something that the Empire has done wrong, and I will not deny the mistake, it doesn't make any sense."
I'm here just to ask, is His Excellency Faogasol still willing to serve the Empire?
”Come straight to the point!
Pompeii IX, who was no more than thirty years old and had been emperor for nine years, said bluntly the heart of this negotiation.And Amon, looking directly at this emperor, found that under the majestic appearance, he actually had gray hair on his temples, and his face also had tiredness that could not be concealed.He was slightly silent, and did not answer directly, but asked, "Empire, is it already so dangerous?"
”Pompey IX seemed to really want to have a frank conversation, and there was no wry smile that was not concealed: "It's more serious than you think."
In fact, this is no longer a matter of one city and one place, almost all the empires, kingdoms, and even smaller principalities and various forces on the continent are struggling with the invasion of demons. ”Amon asked, "I once heard a great being say that if we can't stop the invasion of demons, maybe one day, the world we exist in will be pulled into the abyss and become a certain level?"
Is this true?
”This is what Amontifa Iogasol asked.Pompey IX looked at Amon deeply, he was very concerned about the great being in the other person's words, but it was clear that this was not the time to ask questions.He paused slightly, and then said, "This question should be answered by Archmage Satsuma for you?"
”As he spoke, he looked at the white-haired and white-bearded archmage, who was obviously Satsuma.And Archmage Satsuma also stopped what he was busy with, bowed slightly, and said, "Your Excellency Fa'o said, there is a name in our mage world called the Abyss Devouring Theory, which originated from the conjecture of a legendary spellcaster thousands of years ago when the arcane was at its most prosperous.At some point, this conjecture caused an uproar in the mage world, and of course, to this day, the conjecture is still just a conjecture.After all, the theory of elemental tides, we can still observe through the ups and downs of the elements in the plane, and there is some factual basis.But is this bottomless abyss?
It's really not something that we mortals can set foot in at will.However, according to the ancient records, there is a basis for this theory according to the news sent back by some powerful spellcasters who came out of the plane a long time ago.Of course, there is also good news, well, even if this conjecture is true, Atlantis will eventually fall, but at least we will die before the plane sinks, and we will not be sad because of this. ”Archmage Satsuma was supposed to be one of the few humorous mages among the mages, but this last joke was too cold for anyone present to laugh.Pompeii IX looked at Fao, who seemed silent, and spoke again: "Before I arrived, an investigation had been done, and this time after the demonic invasion of Thundering City was detected, the city lord Earl Remington knew that he could not resist, so he issued an order to retreat through some people in the Imperial Council.They deserved to lose their lives if they lost their cities and their people, so before I came, I ordered the Earl of Remington and several councillors to be put to death, and the nobles who had fled back this time were stripped of their titles and wealth.But I didn't bring their heads to you as a gift, because there was no need.I am the lord of the empire, and all the glory of the empire will be my glory, but all the mistakes of the empire are also my faults, and I will not deny this.But when manpower is poor, I am really powerless in the current situation of the empire.Let's just talk about the invasion of the demon legion this time, the entire empire detected not one, but three cities at the same time.And the number of troops that the empire can mobilize now is barely able to deploy only two cities, and it is only barely.In other words, even if I don't give up Thunder City this time, I have to give up other cities, and I have to watch hundreds of thousands of people die in the slaughter of demons. ”As he spoke, Pompeii IX's originally upright body seemed to bend slightly, and he laughed at himself: "If you go back in time, nine years ago, I really didn't want to be this emperor, who likes to be whom?"
If the empire falls, I, the lord of the lost country, will go to hell, and I will probably be scolded to death by my ancestors. ”"Your Excellency Faogassol, I do not deny that with the strength and potential you have shown this time, any empire on the mainland will be treated as a guest.Power, wealth, titles, and beauties are all in your mind.But for the sake of this land where you were born and raised, I, Pompeii IX, hope that you can stay and contribute to the protection and continuation.This is not my order as the Lord of the Empire, but I ask you on behalf of all the living people of this land?
”Amon looked at the emperor in front of him deeply, there is no doubt that in order to leave Fao, or leave a piece of combat power for the empire, he has done the ultimate in what an emperor can do.Not only did he personally persuade him, but he also lowered his posture very low, he did not give direct orders like the emperor, but played the emotional card, as if asking like a friend.If it weren't Amon at this time, but Fao, maybe he would have been unable to hold it anymore, after all, he was a native of the empire, and his love for this land and his awe of the empire were not understandable to outsiders like Amon.However, Amon still did not let go, because he still did not get what he wanted.Just as Pompeii IX was expecting, Amon finally raised his head, he looked directly into the other's eyes, and said unabashedly: "My wife died in this demonic invasion, she is a very good woman, although it is ironic that when I lose her, I know that she is good, but loss is loss."
Rest assured, I'm not blaming some people for their selfishness, or the irresponsibility of the Empire, and although there are some reasons for this, I can tell that my wife died at the hands of the devil.And I, between life and death, when I broke through the boundary, understood my heart, and for the rest of my life, there was only one thing I had to do. ”At this moment, Amon looked directly into Pompeii IX's gaze, his eyes were like swords, with indescribable determination, he said word by word: "I!
Want!
Slaughter!
Exhaust!
Evil!
Demon!
”
