North Journey

The underground of the imperial capital Kanarn is an endless night, and in the unknown underground palace, a raging dark river is rushing.With the light of the luminous pearl, one can vaguely see the golden color of the dark river, as if the liquid flowing in it is not the river water pouring down from Mount Amelia, but viscous golden water.No, maybe not as if.The gold confiscated by Felix III disappeared silently after being transported into the national treasury. The gold reserves of the entire continent did not cause any disturbance in the palace.So, where can it go?If there is such a place underground in the imperial city, can it explain the whereabouts of the gold?

"Master Augustus, can we really trust a Felix?"

Even though he knew that no one would be able to set foot here without alarming them, Peter Snake couldn't help lowering his voice and asked softly.

"Why should you believe it? It's just a mutual use."

Wearing a floor-length mermaid dress, Scarlett Augustus played with the soft golden light in her hands, something between liquid and solid, and smiled meaningfully.

Their ancient clan obviously possessed great power, why did they always lurk in the dark like their ancestors, being a mouse that could not see the light?Back then, Felix turned his back on them, but he was honored by the Emperor.And the so-called "Witches" in the Temple of Witches used the inheritance left by some wild god to occupy the glory and belief that should belong to them. How ridiculous!

"But, he is yours after all..."

"So what if he is my sister's son? If he hadn't been lucky enough to inherit a bit of protoss ability, I would rather replace the man on the throne with Warren's puppet."

Gently kneading, turning the mass in the hand into the shape of a staff, and then injecting three points of power, feeling its excellent conductivity to divine power, Scarlett Augustus showed a satisfied smile on her face .

Gold pith is indeed the best raw material for staffs, but unfortunately, with their current ability, the ratio and efficiency of extracting golden pith from gold is too low.Even if all the gold in the entire continent is collected, the gold marrow obtained so far can only meet the needs of some clansmen.

Hearing the name "Warren", Peter Snake couldn't help shaking, and he didn't dare to speak again.He is just a small person of the Heiman tribe. Although he is proficient in cursing and poisoning, he is just an ant that can be crushed to death in the face of the gods and demons who once stood at the top of the Kanan continent.Even with the loss of inheritance, the gods and demons today are not as powerful as they were back then, and even the two races that were sworn enemies were forced to shake hands and make peace. However, the Heiman clan, which has also lost many inheritances, can only Submit to their command.

However, compared to Mr. Augustus, who was a bit weird but still human, the demon venerable he had only met once was so terrifying that he was terrified just by mentioning it now.

Only Lord Augustus, who is also the venerable of the gods, dared to mention the demons so casually...

Peter Snake bent down even more, expressing his respect for Lord Augustus.Compared with those ancient tribes who surrendered to the demons, it is their luck for the Heiman tribe to be able to belong to the gods.

However, Scarlett Augustus was not in the mood to care about the thoughts of the family dog ​​under her feet.

"Let Goring speed up the extraction of the golden pith as much as possible."

She waved her hand, signaling Peter Snake, who had already taken orders, to step back, and then disappeared into the dark underground palace.

"My dear Scarlett, why are you in the mood to visit me today?"

On the western outskirts of Lann City, there is a gorgeous manor.The owner of the manor lived in seclusion and never interacted with other people in Lane City. However, the attitude of the owner of Lane City was enough to make most people realize what a big man the owner of this manor was.

Looking inside from the outside of the manor, you will see a large area of ​​red roses blooming particularly prosperously. The bright red color makes many noble ladies "just happen to" pass by outside the manor, just to look forward to a romantic encounter in the rose garden.

However, unlike the gorgeous and dazzling appearance of the manor, the interior of the manor is low-key and simple luxury.Dark red and jet black, embellished with gold ornaments, make people feel uneasy because of the invisible majesty, but at the same time, they can't help but feel awed by this luxury.

"Warren, if I don't come to visit you, who will come to visit you?"

Scarlett walked over to Warren Amelia, who was reclining on the dark red fabric sofa, sat down lightly, her soft and boneless body pressed against his body, and took the glass of blood-colored wine in his hand. Take a sip of red wine, leaving a lip print on the glass wall.

Warren just watched her move, neither annoyed at her faux pas nor delighted in her intentional provocation, nor did he just chuckle at the glass she had just touched as she brought the glass to his lips. place a sip of red wine.

It's just that his pale but too handsome face, his eyes that are already charming when he doesn't smile, even with such a light smile, it is enough to make people's hearts sway.

Otherwise, in her capacity, why should she be so courteous?Looking at Warren Amelia's clothes and behavior that she couldn't fault, and seeing his indifferent expression, Scarlett could not help but sigh silently.She once resented her father - obviously her elder sister, the former imperial queen Debra Augustus, was far inferior to her in terms of appearance and strength, but in the end she married His Majesty the King and became It was not she, Scarlett Augustus, who became the most honorable woman on the entire continent.

However, when her father passed away, she became the ruler of the Protoss, and then she met Warren Amelia, the single Demon Race Venerable, and she felt fortunate that her father did not choose her back then.After all, compared to Felix II, who is nothing but king, a noble, handsome and powerful man like Warren Amelia is worthy of her, who is now the lord of the Protoss.

What's more, he is still so young...

Scarlett's hand caressed his icy cheek, and her porcelain-like skin made her five fingers painted with Danko more attractive, but she withdrew her hand abruptly as if she had been stung by something.He is still so young, but he is already old...

Warren Amelia's delicate skin easily contrasted the slender and beautiful fingers with unconcealable aging, muscle relaxation, and dark wrinkles. No matter how powerful the power is, it cannot restore the magic of time.

Her sister is dead, and her nephew is only a few years younger than Warren. The appearance that seems to be lingering in time can't hide the corruption inside.She absolutely cannot accept such an ending!

Whispering a few words in Warren's ear, Scarlett Augustus couldn't help showing a complacent expression after receiving the promise of the venerable—one day, she will regain the former glory of the Protoss At that time, whether it is Warren Amelia or the same birthday as Tiandi, it will be hers.

After Scarlett Augustus left, a figure emerged from the shadow of the sofa.

"Your Highness, do you really want to cooperate with the Protoss?"

Joe Defoe looked at the direction Scarlett Augustus was leaving with guard and disgust in his eyes.

The Shadow Clan are good at hiding, and where there are shadows, there are their eyes and ears.In addition, with Warren Amelia helping to cover up, even the Protoss Venerable could not detect the third person in the room.

An exquisite puppet came in through the small door of the room, it took the wine glass that Scarlett Augustus had put back in Warren Amelia's hand, and then served Warren and Joe together again. After offering a pot of rose tea and a few plates of delicate snacks, he backed out from where he came from.

The doll has extremely delicate facial features and limbs, but the bright colors add a bit of weirdness to it.

But Joe is used to this, because his highness has always thought that if the doll is made too much like a real person, it will be more terrifying than it is now.It's just that he was very embarrassed about the little cookie that was handed to his mouth. He didn't need to think too much about who the owner of this hand was.However, he knew that with the attachment of his demon master, if he didn't eat it, the next conversation would never start.I had to close my eyes and ate the horrible sweet cookie, and then took a sip from the teacup—when did His Highness even add sugar to the rose tea? !

Caught off guard and sweetened, Joe Defoe looked helplessly at the happy Highness who was holding scented tea and drinking it one sip at a time. There was always a darkness that could not see the future in front of him.It doesn't matter if His Highness likes sweets, but it doesn't matter if you like scented tea. Now even scented tea has to be added with sugar, and judging from the sip he just drank, it definitely added more than a tablespoon. Does Your Highness have a future here...

However, probably the only consolation is that His Royal Highness, who is loyal to the Sweet Party, will never mix with the Protoss venerable who is pretending to be bullied by red wine all day——hasn’t been comforted enough? ←_←

Finally, the demon master who had bullied enough of his subordinates put down the teacup in his hand, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed into a slit.

"Ah, I don't like such pretentious old women~"

There was a whirl in the ending, which made Joe Defoe tremble uncontrollably, and deeply lit a wax for the Protoss Venerable who always thought that His Royal Highness was an iceberg/depressed/sick (…) beautiful boy.Snake spirit disease is not only inherited from the ancestors of the gods, but few venerables of the demons are normal.

The author has something to say:

The transitional chapter, so that all the forces involved in this volume will appear on the stage.

1. Ah Shi: Represents the orthodoxy of the Witch God Temple, Lolta and his true god camp;

2. Warner Felix: Behind him is the ancient survivors, but he is absolutely incompatible with the Protoss (subordinates that have appeared: Heiman, Goring) and the Demons (subordinates that have appeared: Shadow Clan);

3. Al: behind it is Stewart (Lolta's former senior brother) and the false god camp he represents;

And cannon fodder like Luisa Felix or something :-D
