Chapter 83: The Crown Prince

A huge magic light ball suddenly lit up in the city of Alantis. After the magic light ball rose to mid-air, it quickly expanded. The extension range became larger and larger, and soon all the light balls were connected together, forming a huge magic light mask covering the entire Alantis.

Such a huge noise alarmed all the people in the imperial capital, and they all ran to the street to look up, and people were talking, "What is this?"

Some older people vaguely guessed what this was, and immediately turned pale with fear, "Something big happened! This is the super forbidden spell-level protective magic that is known as the "Guardian of the God of Light". Not to mention that we human race, even a dozen giant dragons can't break even if they attack at the same time!"

Outside the magician union, Prince Galah looked at the huge magic light shield above his head and felt a little calm. The emperor suddenly wanted to stab, but the crown prince was not determined, and the situation in the empire was about to collapse. With this "Guardian of Light" that foreign enemies cannot enter for the time being and cannot escape from the internal troubles, with the 100,000 imperial guards in his hand, the 200,000 guards were confident that he would stabilize the situation in the empire as soon as possible.

Prince Gallach turned and bowed to the magicians Theodos, president of the Magicians Union, and said, "If the empire can survive this disaster successfully, the people will be protected from the war and relied on the righteousness and support of the magician."

As the first human magician, Theodos Magician has been over 150 years old and has been in charge of the Magician Union for more than 50 years. The magician's body is hunched, white hair, and a pair of white eyebrows are particularly eye-catching. He is holding a magic wand that is black all over and as a crutch in his hand.

The magician said in an old voice: "I didn't expect that this 'Guardian of Light' would be activated again in my post. The Emperor was indeed a vassal state assassinated, and I, the Magician Union, expressed deep regret. However, this super-forbidden spell-level protective magic consumes a large amount of magic crystals every second. If it is attacked, it will consume faster. And I can only maintain this magic circle for three days for the prince, and all the magic crystals consumed during this period are borne by the Empire."

"I know this. After I go back, I will immediately arrange to send the magic crystals that were running on the first day of the magic circle."

The magician continued: "If foreign races invade, my magician union will call on all magicians to join the war, and will fight to the end to defend the survival and glory of the human race! But if it is a battle between the crown prince of the imperial family and the civil war between the human race, the magician union will remain neutral, and who the magicians belonging to the union are willing to serve all their own voluntary."

Prince Galah's face turned red, "I know this. There are too many emperors' funerals that I need to cook in person, so I will say goodbye first."

Theodos Magister sighed softly, and said nothing more.

When Prince Galah returned to the imperial hall where the emperor was discussing daily affairs, several important imperial officials, including the imperial prime minister Gurnoro, the chief of the city guards, the chief of the dragon scale guard, Kasper, the chief of the eunuch Alu, and other important officials of the imperial court had already been waiting in the hall.

Commander Casper, covered in armor, immediately stepped forward to report: "King of Holo Timothy has escaped from the imperial capital in advance. The Dragon Scale Guard only caught some small fish and shrimps in the palace and inn, and the imperial guards were also searching for people closely related to the Holo Kingdom in the city."

Prince Galach had already expected this. Since Timothy had planned it in advance, he would definitely escape before the assassination.

The eunuch Alu then stepped forward to report: "The emperor's body has been transported back to the palace for parking. Although he tried his best to keep it secret, the emperor and the empress and several imperial concubines have received the news that the inner palace is now crying."

Galah sighed softly, "The protective magic circle has been opened, and the assassination of the Emperor no longer needs to be kept secret. I will go to the inner palace to meet the Emperor and the Empress in person later. I will trouble the Emperor's funeral. Manager Aru, please start preparing."

Prime Minister Gurnoro stepped forward and said, "Prince, the most urgent thing now is to decide the crown prince. As long as the new king succeeds to the throne, the internal stability will be achieved. Then the new emperor can summon the six kings to jointly send troops to attack Holo and avenge the old emperor!"

"Although the Emperor had a prince he liked before, the assassination was too sudden. The Emperor did not have time to leave any last words and decrees. How can the crown prince decide?" Galah said with a headache.

Gurnoro immediately responded: "At present, the only one who is the most suitable crown prince is left. The second highman is known as benevolence and is the origin of the emperor and empress. It is naturally legitimate to become the next emperor."

Galach frowned and said, "What about Alex? Before that, the Emperor had already made a statement in his heart. Alex."

"If the Emperor was assassinated, I could not make a conclusion between His Highness and the Second Highness. But the Emperor's murder was instructed by the Kingdom of Holo. The Death Academy took the assassination. Everyone knows that His Highness came from the Death Academy. Timothy has always supported His Highness to succeed the throne. Does this incident have nothing to do with His Highness?" Gurnoro retorted.

Grand Duke Amaya said with some dissatisfaction: "Since everyone knows that the Kingdom of Holo supports His Highness, will His Highness instruct Timothy to do such a stupid thing that makes him bear the infamy of killing his father? There is no evidence to prove that His Highness is involved in this matter. Now the person behind the scenes is still unknown, so it is probably inappropriate to rush to exclude His Highness from the crown prince?"

The dispute between Prime Minister Gurnoro and the Imperial Guard Grand Duke Amaya reflects the attitude of the empire towards the candidate for the crown prince. The imperial civil servants headed by Gurnoro mostly support the Second Highness, while generals from the military generally support the Supreme Highness to succeed the throne. The imperial civil and military sides were in stalemate, which is also one of the important reasons why Emperor Constantine could not settle the crown prince before.

The two of them were arguing and both looked at Prince Galach.

"It is still impossible to determine whether this matter is involved with Alex. The real murderer cannot be rushing to determine the crown prince before he finds out."

Gurnoro asked, "Who will take the lead in finding out the murderer and avenge the Emperor?"

"Before this, I will take the responsibility of summoning the six kingdoms and clarifying the murderer's revenge for the emperor."

"It is no problem for the prince to bear it with all his strength, but if the prince is regent for a long time, I am worried that the six countries will not accept it. If the rumors arise, the people will not be determined?" Gurnoro said with something in his words.

Prince Galah's purple pupils glared, "Bastard, if I really want to be the position of Emperor, with the 300,000 troops in my hands, and the opportunity for you to talk in my ears?"

Prince Galah was angry and Gurnoro did not dare to continue talking. But the situation was also deadlocked. Although Galah held military power, if there was no support from the civil service system headed by Gurnoro, the government would also be in chaos.

Gallach thought for a while and took the initiative to make a move, "Please let all your highnesses notify you to come to the palace to meet the emperor for the last time, so as to find an opportunity to leave Alex and Grantham alone, and finally consider which of the two highnesses has the ability to stabilize the current political situation."

It is indeed an urgent task to summon your highness to the palace, and Gurnoro also agreed.

But he never thought that as soon as the eunuch who was sent to the palace left, Nanbo, the deputy commander of the Imperial Army, rushed in, "Report, Prince, Your Highness hurriedly led people out of the city before the protective magic was formed."
