It was already late at night, and Prince Galach still sat on the chair in the study.

The maid brought a hot towel, and the prince raised his head and applied it gently on his face to relieve his fatigue for a while.

Gallach closed his eyes slightly, and scenes of the day flashed quickly from his mind.

Now I think that my brother, as the Emperor, really failed. He was murdered by his son for his father. His evening trip to the inner palace made Galah, an outsider, feel disappointed. The empress, who had married a couple, reacted surprisingly unpretentiously to the death of the emperor, and all the funerals were decided by Galah and Aru. Galah's purple eyes even saw the joy of almost concealing the inability to be in the deep eyes of the emperor. The only thing this woman really cares about was her son, the second high prince, ascended the throne.

The concubines were so heartbroken that they cried, but these women were not crying about the love between husband and wife, but how did the old people who had lost their support after the new king ascended the throne?

Gallach was drowsy and drowsy. A sudden sound of rapid footsteps and knocks on the door outside the study door.

Galach sat upright with a shiver, but there was darkness in front of him. It turned out that the towel was still covering his face, and it was already cold.

"Report, emergency military information!" The Imperial Commander Nan Bo broke in directly.

Prince Galach's eyes stood, "Is the sky falling? What's so turbulent."

Nanbo saluted, "Prince forgives the crime, the military situation is too urgent, and his subordinates are reckless."

"Tell me."

"I just received an urgent military report. His Highness's Northern Army is advancing quickly towards Alantis. According to the speed of travel, it can reach the capital in two days. In addition, the Kingdom of Holo has assembled three legions and crossed the border today, and the direction of the marching is also the capital."

"The movement is so fast. It seems that they have planned it a long time ago." Prince Galach turned around twice in place with his hands behind his back and said slowly: "Alex's Northland Legion is elite, but these 100,000 people alone cannot cause any storm under the city of Alantis. The real threat is Hollo's three legions. Fortunately, there is a barrier between the imperial capital and Hollo. You can invite the King of Bados overnight. As long as Bados can help the empire block Hollo's army for five days, I will be able to free up my hands to summon the army to fight Hollo."

Nanbo cried and said, "Prince, this is exactly what I have not finished. The King of Bados also ran out before the imperial capital was closed. Now the two Bados legions have entered the Gyeonggi area immediately after the Northern Legion. Their time to reach the Imperial Capital will not be half a day later than that of the Northern Legion."

Galach's head instantly took a break. Now he finally knew why Alex was eager to leave the city. It turned out that Bardos was also standing on his side. Hollo, Bardos and his own Northland Legion, Alex actually assembled an army of 600,000.

Galach felt a chill in his heart. Even with the danger of Alantis' city defense, he had a chance of winning against 600,000. What's more, there were many generals and forces in the city who had previously supported His Royal Highness. Some of them must have secretly turned to Alex.

"Prince, I have a word I don't know if I can say?"

"you say."

"Since the Second Highness has been appointed as the Emperor, why should you bear this war alone?"

Gallach looked at Nanbo with a slightly surprised look, "What do you mean?"

"With Alantis's Imperial Guards and City Guards against Holo, the two armies of Bados naturally have little chance of victory. However, Locke and Rouge have always supported the second highness to succeed the throne. Now the throne has been settled. As long as the two countries are persuaded to send troops, the danger of the imperial capital will naturally be solved."

Galach's expression was calm and he nodded, "You are right. I wanted the Emperor to rest in peace before, so I was really not considerate! Locke and Rouge are equal in military strength with Bados, and they just happened to be trapped in the middle. As long as the two countries send troops from the left and right wings at the same time, they will definitely defeat them in one fell swoop. You will invite the two kings overnight."

Prince Galah had a secret conversation with the kings of Locke and Rouge in the study that night. When Galah personally sent the two kings out of the palace, the sky was already light.

Locke and Rouge finally agreed to send 200,000 troops to assist the empire in quelling the Holo and Bados rebellion, but took the opportunity to put forward extremely harsh conditions. First, he asked the second highman to ascend the throne first, and after ascend the throne to the throne, sign a secret agreement with the two countries in the name of the emperor, and after quelling the rebellion, he deprived the king of Bados of the throne, and his territory was divided equally by Locke and Rouge.

The two countries were extremely smart and did not make any demands on the territory of the Holo Kingdom, because Holo bordered the orcs, and if they swallowed Holo, they would face the threat of orc invasion.

Galach stood outside the gate of the palace, squinted his eyes and looked at the rising sun and sighed.

At this moment, he understood the difficulty of his brother. It was indeed not easy to maintain this huge empire under the surrounding of the kings of the seven kingdoms!

......

Qiong did not want to delay the clue that Emperor was assassinated.

Qiong did not know the people from the Holo Kingdom, but the people from the Holo Kingdom themselves always knew. The Dragon Scale Guard captured a lot of people from the Palace and Inn in the afternoon. These people are now temporarily locked in the Dragon Scale Guard's ward.

The Dragon Scale Guard's garrison was on the outskirts of the North City, and Joon pulled Arthur straight to the North City.

It was late at night when Joan and Arthur arrived at the Dragon Scale Guard.

Although some people in the Dragon Scale Guard knew His Eleventh Highness, the people arrested in the afternoon were related to the assassination of the Emperor. This matter was too sensitive. Without the consent of Prince Galah or Commander Kasper, no one could meet with the prisoners privately.

Qiong was also ruthless in the end, and was furious outside the garrison site on the spot, asking the Dragon Scale Guard to inform Casper to come to see him immediately.

How dare these ordinary Dragon Scale Guards offend the Eleventh Highness, but they did not dare to disturb the Grand Commander Casper late at night. Fortunately, the Deputy Commander Harper was on duty at the garrison that night. After receiving the news from below, he personally went outside the garrison to greet the Eleventh Highness.

When Harper learned that His Eleventh Highness was going to interrogate prisoners in the Kingdom of Holo, he also looked embarrassed. He was on duty tonight because he was afraid of any accidents.

Joan adapted and said, "Master Harper, I won't make you embarrassed about this matter. I have a friend who has disappeared. I only ask these prisoners of Hollo if they recognize this person. I don't ask any other questions, and you can follow me all the time."

Harper thought about it and felt that this might not be a big problem, so he had to agree to the request of His Eleventh Highness.

After Qiong arrived at the garrison, he did not rush to interrogate the prisoners, but asked the Dragon Scale Guard to invite a royal painter who was good at painting portraits of people overnight.

After the painter invited him, Joan and Arthur described the appearance of the person they saw that day based on their memory, and the painter drew the person's appearance on the spot.

After several minor adjustments, when the person on the painting and what Qiong saw that day was almost the same, Qiong took the scroll and entered the interrogation room accompanied by Commander Harper.

The first to be taken into the interrogation room was the magician Helans, who appeared in the last game in the Death Academy.

Although he had been locked in for more than a day and had not been tortured or questioned, Helans's mentality had completely collapsed. He was a serious crime of assassinating the Emperor. He was still so young but he was about to die here!

"Raise your head and take a look at this person. Do you know him?" Joan unfolded the scroll before Helans's eyes.

"Know, know, this is our Vice President Jeretre. The magic wand with the "Ice and Snow Storm" was given to me by the Vice President, but this matter has nothing to do with me. I really don't know that Uka is going to assassinate the Emperor..." Helans, who was eager to wash away himself, spoke nonsense as soon as he opened his mouth.
