Chapter 48 - 48 The Enraged Siladan VI, Count Eagle Is Out!
However, even though she understood, Ai Qing still found it difficult to accept.
And this will obviously take time and plenty of time to accept.
And did the Dark Elves really have enough time?
Siladan Empire.
The enraged Siladan VI smashed his beloved crystal bottle.
“Damn it, a group of trash! You can’t absolve yourselves of the blame for the Third Prince’s matter!
Count Eagle, I heard that your Eagle Knights are extremely powerful, but now it seems that they are only so-so!
More than 500 Eagle Knights and the Third Prince had all died. Didn’t you say that the Eagle Knights were invincible?
One had to know that the Third Prince controlled hundreds of thousands of troops.
And it was guarded by the so-called invincible Eagle Knights.
Even so, they all died in battle. The 500 Eagle Knights did not even cause a ripple!
Trash!”
“Your Majesty, calm down. There’s something fishy about this matter!
Please forgive me, Your Majesty!”
The Count Eagle, who was obese and weighed more than 200 kilograms, hurriedly stood up and begged for mercy.
After all, under such circumstances, if he did not complain about being wronged, he would probably not have the chance to do so later.
The emperor had always been the most heartless. Not to mention Count Eagle, even Duke Eagle might not be able to bear such a disaster.
If he was one of those veteran Counts, he might still have some confidence.
However, he was a true newcomer. He did not come from a long line of nobility, and his current status was basically all thanks to the support of this king.
Without the king, he was nothing.
It was precisely because of this that although this person was an Count, in the eyes of the king, he was nothing more than the guard beside him.
Perhaps Count Eagle could use his current status to chat and laugh with many nobles, but that was all.
In front of true experts and true nobles, he, the Count Eagle, was just a dog raised by His Majesty!
And now, this old dog had failed to protect his little master, indirectly causing his death.
Under such circumstances, even if Count Eagle did not die, he would not be able to escape punishment.
Fortunately, the king was not an unreasonable person. Count Eagle’s words saved his life.
“Tell me! What happened?”
Siladan VI asked slowly with a dark expression.
“Your Majesty, according to the investigation on the scene, we discovered traces of a forbidden curse there.
We suspect that someone used a Forbidden Spell to attack the Third Prince and the army he led.”
Count Eagle’s words made Siladan VI fall silent.
There was no doubt that the news brought by Count Eagle overlaps with the information he had sent his subordinates to investigate.
Compared to the Count Eagle, Siladan VI obviously had more information channels.
It was precisely because of this that he knew the most information among the two of them.
Everything that had happened before was just Siladan VI trying to teach the Count Eagle a lesson. He naturally knew the truth.
Hence, after frowning, Siladan VI could not help but say, “Alright, I know about this. I can’t blame the Eagle Knight or you, Count Eagle!
However, the Eagle Knights’ training must be increased in the future!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
“Alright, let’s forget about what happened just now. Next, we have to discuss how to deal with those lawless Forbidden Spellcasters.
These Forbidden Spellcasters relied on the fact that they controlled Forbidden Spells to do whatever they wanted. They clearly did not take us seriously!
This was a provocation to the Siladan Empire!
Count, from today onwards, the mission of conquest of the Forbidden Spellcasters is yours. This time, you are allowed to use all the members of the Eagle Knights.
In addition, I’ll privately transfer five Forbidden Spellcasters to you this time. I hope you can use their power appropriately and well.
They are all national treasures. Lose any one of them, you would lose your head!
You have to try your best to ensure their survival. Other than that, try your best to capture those unfamiliar magicians alive.
If you really could not capture them alive, then kill him on the spot, leave no way out!
These Forbidden Spellcasters were very terrifying. Their vitality was abnormally powerful.
Therefore, when you attack, you have to be fast. Don’t give them any room to resist!”
“Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty!”
“Go! Don’t disappoint me. I hope I can see the heads of these evil thieves in three months…”
Saying this, Siladan VI stared at the Count Eagle at this moment. He looked exceptionally terrifying with a faint smile.
Even someone as powerful as Count Eagle could not help but take out a handkerchief from his body and gently wipe the cold sweat that kept flowing out of his body.
It was obvious that the closer you are to someone of power, the closer you are to losing your life. At this moment, Siladan VI clearly had the ferocity of a tiger.
In front of this ferocious might, Humans were clearly incomparably small.
Even the Count Eagle could not help but lower his noble head…
Count Eagle kept moving, although he had already made some symbolic disguises.
However, this obviously could not be hidden from Count Eagle’s arch rival, Count Lion.
The two Counts, Eagle and Lion, were new Earls. Most importantly, they were deeply favoured by the people above.
It was precisely because of this that the two of them often fought for favor and often caused each other trouble and mocked each other.
And this time was obviously no exception!
Count Eagle clearly wanted to do something, and Count Lion had no clue what Count Eagle’s next move is.
However, they already understood that following the other party clearly had a certain chance of achieving their goal!
Therefore, it could be said that Count Lion had sent a large number of spies this time. He wanted to use this opportunity to keep a close eye on Count Eagle.
But what kind of person was Count Eagle? He was also a cunning person himself.
The next day, this fellow visited the Count Lion and vaguely pointed out that this was a mission sent by the higher-ups.
Therefore, no matter how unwilling Count Lion was, he could only accept the truth helplessly.
“It seems that His Majesty dotes on Count Eagle more. I shouldn’t have a share in this matter. What a pity!
However, this mission did not seem to be simple. This old man, Count Eagle, might die this time.
Forget it, who cares!
If he wants to monopolize the credit, there’s nothing I can do. I can only wish him a safe trip…”
Count Lion had clearly seen through something wrong with this mission.
But in this case, it was obviously impossible for him to remind his competitors.
Therefore, Count Eagle embarked on his journey with anticipation under Count Lion’s malicious speculation.
And this journey was destined to be long and winding…
