Blasphemy: 13 Jungle

Chapter 13 The Jungle In the eyes of those who are interested, Richelieu is already an undercurrent. But ordinary people's lives have not yet been disrupted by political struggles. Rogge's entry into the imperial capital at this sensitive moment will inevitably make the situation even more delicate.

Rogge ignored the dozen or so clever or clumsy trackers around the convoy and entered Pompey's palace directly.

Rogge had already notified Pompey of his arrival time, so when he entered the secret meeting room in the palace, everyone was already seated and waiting there.

There were only a few people in the conference hall, among whom he had known Pompeo, Rockefeller and the magician Gemma for a long time, but there were still three or four people sitting in the hall who he had never seen before.

Pompeo gave a long laugh, came up to him, took Rogge's hand affectionately, and said: "Lord Rogge, if you don't come again, I will give up to Straw and go back to run the manor! ”

Roger laughed and said: "Lord Pompey, if you really want to run the manor, then I will be your housekeeper!"

Pompeo smiled and said: "Even if you are willing, I dare not accept it! Come on, let's get to know each other. This is the Alexander I mentioned to you. If it hadn't been for him this time, maybe I would have been sent to It's the gallows!"

Alexander looked to be about fifty years old, with a tall and handsome figure. Ten years of cold wind in Western Xinjiang had left strong lines on his face like a knife and slightly gray hair. He only wore a well-made and plain breastplate, with a badge consisting of a glacier, a sword and a shield embedded on his left chest, showing that he belonged to the empire's prestigious 'Glacier' Legion. Just looking at his appearance, few people would associate him with the famous general of the empire and the commander of the ‘Glacier’ Legion.

Roger hurried forward, but for a moment, he didn't know what kind of etiquette should be used to meet each other. In terms of title and status, he, the prince, has the highest status among everyone here, but the fat man has a basic self-awareness. Whether it is the actual power, the power he controls, or his personal experience and knowledge, he is much inferior to everyone here. Moreover, Alexander was twenty years older than him, so for a moment, he really couldn't think of appropriate etiquette.

Alexander smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and shook Rogge's hand. With just this effort, Rogge sensed that Alexander's personal fighting spirit was around level 13 or 14, which was not outstanding at all. However, this invincible commander who has been on the battlefield for many years has extremely rich actual combat experience. Generally strong people, even if their fighting spirit is two levels stronger than him, may not be his match.

Everyone sat down separately without too much politeness.

Behind Alexander sat two attendants. The mere fact that they were able to attend such a private occasion showed Alexander's trust in them. One of them was a burly middle-aged man. What was incompatible with his huge size and fierce aura was that he was actually wearing a robe and looked like a spell caster. The other one is a female mage with mature charm, but she gives people a different feeling from ordinary mage. I guess she must have some special abilities, otherwise simply based on her fourteenth level magic power, although she can also be called A great magician, but he shouldn't be worthy of Alexander's attention.

They looked at Rogge attentively, but their eyes couldn't help but focus more on Froya, who was sitting quietly behind Rogge.

The little fairy has a beautiful face. If she pretends to be a lady quietly, she is indeed elegant and natural.

None of the powerful people around Rogge are present at the moment, and the curse on Feng Die may break out at any time. Moreover, although she has gone down a dark path, she is still essentially a simple elf. So after thinking about it, only Froya could help Fatty in planning strategies.

After everyone sat down, Pompeo first said: "Lord Rogge, the information of magic communication is limited, so you don't know many things yet. Let me tell you briefly first. This time the Poseidon Legion lost its power at the Gate of the Abyss. It was disastrous. When Rockefeller, Master Jima, I and I arrived with our troops, the three thousand Poseidon warriors left behind had been nearly wiped out. We fought hard for more than ten days before driving the endless stream of abyssal creatures back to the gate of the abyss. , Master Jima sealed the Gate of the Abyss again."

When they met again, Gemma's face looked older and uglier than before, and her eyes became dull. She weakly interjected: "Actually, I don't have the ability to seal the Gate of the Abyss. Even at the cost of all my divine power, the seal imposed is still very fragile and can only be regarded as a temporary measure. It may last for one year. Maybe it can only be supported for a few months. If there are very powerful abyss creatures attacking the seal from the inside, then it will have a great chance of success. This time, the number of underground creatures emerging from the abyss gate is unexpected. Not only are there Very powerful underground creatures such as the illithid, Medusa, and the giant scythe beetle, and even a dozen Rose spiders appeared! So don't expect too much from my seal. What kind of powerful things appear behind the gate of the abyss now? No monsters are surprising."

Roger suddenly realized, no wonder he couldn't feel any power from Gemma. Fatty had always underestimated this old woman, but he really didn't expect that she could seal the Gate of the Abyss with her own strength. Although the seal is not very strong, it is already a very remarkable thing.

Pompeo continued: "In the battle to retake the Gate of the Abyss, the Poseidon Legion killed more than 8,000 soldiers in total, but this was not the most important reason for the emperor's anger. The real reason was that because of the appearance of Rose Spider, The Poseidon Legion destroyed nearly five thousand sets of Wave Armor in total. Mr. Rogge is no outsider. I might as well say bluntly that the biggest secret of the Poseidon Legion lies in these Wave Armor. The Wave Armor is built in groups of ten. Each group of battle armors has a set of command armors. As long as this group of battle armors is within a certain range of the command armor, the commander can adjust the attributes of the subordinate battle armors at any time according to the battle situation. With the help of well-trained warriors, every member of the Poseidon Legion can A ten-man team can exert strong combat effectiveness in any battle situation. If any personnel are injured, as long as the damage to the Wave Armor is not serious, new Poseidon warriors can be produced quickly. However, the Wave Armor itself is very difficult to build, and the most The production of moonstone, an important raw material, is very rare. The output of the entire empire is only enough to build more than a hundred sets of Wave Armor a year. The Wave Armor was first designed by the Church of Light at that time. Since the founding of the Empire, It has been continuously built since the beginning. Before the Battle of the Abyss, the Poseidon Legion only had 30,000 warriors. In the Battle of the Abyss, the Poseidon Legion killed more than 10,000 warriors. We cannot retrieve their bodies. These armors It was lost in the abyss world. Now that the gate of the abyss has been re-sealed, five thousand sets of armor have been damaged, which means that from now on, my Poseidon Legion will only have fifteen thousand people."

Finally, Pompeo smiled bitterly and said: "The Poseidon Legion has been the hard work of the empire for hundreds of years, and as a result, it lost a quarter because of my absence from duty. Even without Straw fanning the flames in front of the emperor, this would be The serious crime was enough to get me to the gallows several times. Thanks to Alexander's timely return and his life as a guarantee, the emperor just reduced my title and allowed me to make meritorious services in the future to atone for my sins."

Alexander said in a deep voice: "Pompeo, if you hadn't personally led the Poseidon Legion to cut off the rear, none of us would have had the chance to walk out of the Gate of the Abyss alive. Only the Poseidon Legion that can adapt to any environment can fight in the abyss. Originally, the Poseidon Legion could fight in the abyss. I don't want to get involved in the political disputes of the empire, but Straw is so old and confused that he uses this method to try to get involved with the Poseidon Legion! This is shaking the foundation of the empire! I will never let him do whatever he wants. His Hutu tribe Although it is the largest tribe in the empire, with hundreds of thousands of warriors, this amount of troops is not yet in my eyes!"

Pompeo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It would be okay to ask me to hand over the command of the Poseidon Legion, but... these more than 8,000 soldiers have been following me for ten years. These... are all the elite of the empire!"

Rogg asked: "Is the Gate of the Abyss a portal leading directly to the dark area?"

Jima said: "No, the Gate of the Abyss is just an exit from the dark area on the ground. There is still a very long distance to reach the real abyss."

Rogge frowned and said: "The abyss creatures mentioned just now are very powerful, but they rarely live together, let alone gather together like this. Especially Rose Spider, this kind of legendary dark creature How come the Spider Queen’s pets appear near the surface, and there are more than a dozen of them at once?”

"Based on my limited knowledge," Rockefeller said, "I can only think that after destroying the seal, the visitor cast a call of the wild, gathering all the abyssal creatures that originally lived underground near the gate of the abyss, and opened the door to the abyss. We were caught off guard."

Rogge let out a laugh and said: "It's the Druid again! However, our opponents are not limited to Straw and the City of Yunxiao. As far as I know, the Silver Dragon Clan has recently been fighting against the City of Yunxiao. With the cities united together, our enemies have become several times stronger! It's because of this that I missed my trip."

Everyone in the hall changed their minds when they heard that the mysterious and powerful Silver Dragon Clan had formed an alliance with the Druids.

Alexander thought for a moment and then said immediately: "Lord Rogge, we have discussed the current situation and believe that there is no room for relaxation with the City of Yunxiao. But Pompey and I are leading troops to fight. There are not many people with outstanding personal martial arts under your command. Master Gemma’s divine power has been exhausted, and the blizzard magic that Master Rockefeller is good at is more suitable for battlefield use. Only you have many strong men. In this regard, I’m afraid I have to rely on you. ."

Roger smiled bitterly and said: "I have a few people with good martial arts skills under me, but what about the Silver Dragons? Master Rockefeller is a great mage. He should know that even a strong man from the Holy Domain will not be able to fight against an ordinary Silver Dragon. I’m afraid it’s also very difficult, right?”

"Silver Dragon..." Alexander suddenly smiled. He glanced at Pompey and said, "What do you think?"

Pompeo chuckled and said: "We have fought together for the empire for twenty years, and have been through life and death countless times. Don't you still understand me?"

Alexander gave a long laugh and said: "Okay! Okay!"

He turned to Rogge and said categorically: "If the Silver Dragon tribe dares to interfere in the internal affairs of the empire, it will mean war! I will mobilize a hundred thousand troops from Western Xinjiang, no matter the cost, I will destroy the Silver Dragon City! Otherwise, Let these reptiles think the empire is empty!"

Roger smiled indifferently and said: "But if we want to overthrow the City of Yunxiao, just relying on a few of my men is far from enough. I need an army, an army that can trap or at least expel The army of the strong."

Alexander pointed to the tall man behind him and said: "This is the War Priest Kadar, and the other is the Holy Exorcist Vivian. Their abilities and expertise are all on the battlefield, but they can also be used on small scales. In the battle. Sir Rogge, you will find that they can give you a lot of help. As for the guards, I brought a total of 120 Wind and Frost Dragon Warriors this time. They are all warriors above level 12. There are also fifty executioners, all of whom can be commanded by you."

Pompeo received: "Same as last time, I will leave all my Orca Whale Guards to you. Now you have a total of 300 troops. Should it meet your requirements?"

Roger smiled and said: "Very good, at least I won't be afraid of the City of Clouds and Nights. But what about Straw and Frederick?"

Pompeo groaned: "Straw cannot be killed! He is the leader of the Hutu tribe. Once he is killed, the empire will have to fall into civil strife. Moreover, assassinating him is not an easy task. He is still loyal to the empire. Loyal, we just have different stances on how to make the empire strong. But except for him, you can use all means to deal with people related to him."

Rogge said: "What if they are his parents and children?"

Pompeo smiled and said: "But there is no harm in killing."

Roger frowned and asked: "But once Straw is angered, how will the Hutu army deal with it?"

Alexander said calmly: "This time, there are 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 dwarf engineering troops returning to the empire with me. The imperial capital is surrounded by plains. If the Glacier Legion cannot defeat the Hutu on the plains, then I will retire immediately."

A few people discussed the details of the action for a while and then left.

According to imperial etiquette, Rogge went to see Emperor Feuerbach the day after arriving in the imperial capital.

The place where the emperor received him was still the same small restaurant as last time, and the dishes did not change much. After not seeing each other for half a year, Rogge felt that the emperor had become much older.

While cutting the veal loin, the emperor said: "I heard that you had a lively fight with Yunxiao City recently! The little guy is not simple. Not only was he not defeated, but he was also eaten by the druids. Quite a loss."

Rogge only has Wei Wei Nao Nao.

"My daughter should be obedient!" As usual, the emperor didn't wait for Rogge to answer, and said to himself: "What is her name? Is she here already?"

The old manager said slowly: "Princess Malika is already waiting outside."

"Then let her in."

Not long after, Princess Malika walked in in a full dress. Her tall figure and wild aura are indeed very attractive.

According to imperial law, the princes must bring the princess to meet the emperor when they return to the imperial capital.

Before the emperor could say anything, Malika suddenly stared at Rogge coldly! Rogge's heart skipped a beat and he secretly yelled, "Not good!"

Malika suddenly tore off her top. She tore it off so thoroughly that her entire upper body was exposed. Her round shoulders were as smooth as jade, but there were dozens of thin knife marks crisscrossing her breasts, all of which were obviously recent.

"Your Majesty!" Malika fell to the ground and cried: "Rogge killed my maid, did this to me, and threatened the lives of my mother's family. I must not tell you this! He has insulted the imperial family. The dignity of blood! He treated me like this because he was training secretly in the Principality of Are, colluding with foreign races, and wanted to rebel!"

Roger's heart suddenly went cold.

He didn't expect Malika to do so well. Although he had beaten her frequently during this period, how could such a smart fat man leave such conspicuous scars on her body? It was obvious that she had secretly cut it herself after entering the palace.

Emperor Feuerbach was silent for a moment, and then stretched out his hand, and the old steward immediately handed over a whip.

The emperor's hand was raised high and fell heavily!

The whip whizzed and fell on Malika's naked back, leaving a **** whip mark!

Malika screamed hysterically, unable to believe that the emperor hit her!

"What I hate most is someone lying to me in person! And the lies they use are not clever!" The emperor almost roared: "Tell me! What did he do, and what was the reason for you to do it?"

Malika's body was still trembling from the severe pain. In front of Emperor Jiwei, she had no choice but to reveal the truth: "He...he said that if I disobey, he will definitely kill Lei Luo! I... …I don’t want Lei Luo to die, so I want him to die.”

The emperor snorted, threw the whip on the ground, and cursed: "You idiots! Everyone thinks they can hide it from me~IndoMTL.com~Huh, I'm not an old fool yet! Lei Luo has a special status, he is here The empire must be contacting everyone for some other reason. I have ignored him, I just wanted to see what he wanted to do! You don’t need to enter the imperial capital anymore. I don’t want to see the owner of the imperial bloodline turn out to be like this. Idiot."

With tears in her eyes, Malika lowered her head and left.

The Emperor turned his head to look at Rogge and suddenly snorted.

The fat man was startled, stood up quickly, and responded solemnly.

"I heard that you are very close to the Eye of Wisdom. What kind of holy baby did you bring out recently?"

The fat man immediately knelt on the ground as if a basin of cold water had poured down on his head, and said: "I only acted according to the oracle of the goddess Audreyh. Your Majesty, I also do it for the goddess to care for the empire!"

"Is there really such a goddess as Audreyh?"

The fat man immediately said: "It's absolutely true!"

The emperor snorted, and after a moment he said: "It depends on man-made things, not divine grace. Whether the empire rises or falls depends entirely on the sword in my hand, whether I have a divine companion or not. Go ahead and put that holy infant to death!" ”
