Chapter 499: Inflated Confidence
As soon as Frank finished speaking, the atmosphere in the throne room suddenly stagnates.
Frank sneered: "Your Majesty Gillard, it's serious, I'm just stating this to you, understand?"
If it was an ordinary monarch-subject relationship, Frank would of course be rebellious, but the problem is that now the entire royal family of the Illus Empire, as well as the top ruling class, have been completely controlled by the Serpent of Darkness. It can be said that there is no outsider present. In terms of generation, his Frank status should be above Gillard.
If there is no royal blood, if it does not need a spokesperson, the snake of darkness will not push Gillard to sit in that position.
"Or, are you jealous of our Kadir family's contribution to the Lord, so you want to suppress us on purpose to gain more favor?"
Facing Girard's icy gaze, Frank was not afraid and completely grasped the blessing of him. Now his body is full of huge power, and the power that can destroy everything brings him a strong confidence.
Frank licked his lips: "If it wasn't for your background, do you think the messenger of the Lord would let you sit in this position?"
From the weak body in the past to the strength now, the huge gap between the front and the back has brought Frank's infinitely expanding heart, and now he is fearless!
"In other words... you want to sit on the throne too?"
Girard at this moment is not the previous prince, but a king who was swallowed by the dark power. To challenge his majesty is to doubt his majesty.
Girard stood up slowly, and the icy aura permeated the entire throne room. Those ministers who were only controlled by their minds but had no power stepped back one by one, and after a while, they were all Exit the throne room.
At this moment still standing in the throne room, only Gillard, Frank and Charles.
Charles is barely able to support himself to stand now, but he doesn't even have the ability to speak.
On the other hand, Frank, who completely mastered the power of darkness, did not lose the slightest in the face of Girard's oppression, which made him even more excited.
The famous genius prince Girard, his power is nothing but the same!
The blessing he received was not as good as himself!
Frank didn't know that because Prince Girard's power was too strong, Marcus couldn't fully control his mind, and could only guide hints to corrupt him.
But this illusion has greatly increased Frank's confidence, he thinks he can fight Gillard!
There is even confidence!
"Let's have a fight."
Frank raised his hands, and his fingers were completely surrounded by a dense black force, which looked like ghost claws: "The loser will become a puppet in the future, and the winner will own the entire empire!"
"Duke Frank."
Girard smiled instead of anger, and took a step forward slowly: "...What gave you... the illusion that you can be my enemy?"
step!
Just one step!
Frank was struck by lightning, his face changed greatly!
At this moment, in his eyes, Gillard seems to have become a fearful vortex, and he wants to completely swallow him!
The heavy pressure hit his shoulders fiercely, and the floor under Frank's feet cracked instantly!
"Roar!"
Frank took a deep breath and appeared in front of Girard in an instant, grabbing Girard's neck with both hands!
"too weak."
Girard's face was filled with a contemptuous sneer, and appeared ghostly behind Frank: "It's too weak."
Frank's face changed slightly, but he reacted immediately, twisting his body, one after another ferocious ghost claws tore Gillard.
Before Frank could smile, a huge force landed on his back. Frank groaned and slammed into the stone pillar between the thrones. The stone pillar collapsed, and the falling stone buried him.
"Let me think about it... The patriarch of a family who has never had power, suddenly received a 'blessing', and after trying his best to master this power, he was blinded by the powerful power and thought that That's the power of the strong."
Girard slowly retracted his fist and said coldly: "However, he doesn't know that this is just an illusion. He who has never had power, he doesn't understand how powerful the real powerhouse is."
"In front of a real strong man, he is as weak and ridiculous as a maggot."
"Duke Frank, you, understand?"
Too, too great!
Charles shivered in shock, obviously his father's strength was already so powerful, but he couldn't even stop a punch from His Majesty Girard!
Girard, the proud son of the sky, really deserves his reputation!
"boom!"
With a loud bang, falling rocks flew, and Frank, who was shrouded in darkness, jumped out and stood in front of Girard again.
His face was extremely ugly - the punch just now made him understand how far apart his strength was from Girard!
Girard scorned Frank: "You, don't even deserve my sword."
Frank's expression worsened.
"Kneel down."
Gillard's indifferent voice sounded, and Frank's expression changed in horror. He only heard a loud "bang". He was completely unable to control his body, and was forcibly pressed to the ground by that powerful force, his knees even on the ground. There are two deep pits on the ground!
"For the sake of serving the Lord, I will reward you with the qualification to kneel in front of me, kowtow and be grateful."
Frank could feel Girard's icy gaze, and he knew very well now that if it wasn't for the sake of being a servant of God, he would have been in a different place now.
"Thank you...Your Majesty...the gift!"
Frank almost squeezed these words out of his teeth, but Gillard didn't care. What he wanted was not a friend, not a subordinate, but a dog, a mad dog.
"Very well, now, we can talk about my plan."
Girard turned around and returned to the throne.
Without his orders, Frank could only continue on his knees.
Girard held his head with his legs crossed, and glanced at Frank: "I want an army, the most powerful army, only a strong enough army is qualified to be my soldier... I want to step on the tower. Race, tie Ellington, and—"
A ferocious expression flashed on Girard's face: "--I want to kill Dunn!"
Hand blade Dunn!
Frank nodded silently, at this point he had the same interests as the prince.
"The Kadir family has a lot of money, so what should I do with the army's supplies, I don't need to say more?"
"Serving the Lord of God is what it should be."
Frank was still reluctant to admit that he lost to Girard at the moment, only willing to admit that he was serving the Lord.
Gillard doesn't care about this, as long as he can get the financial support of the Kadir family, it is enough.
At this time, Charles whispered: "Your Majesty Girard, the property of the Spade family is still above our Kadir family..."
Girard glanced at him, and then said lightly: "It's a pity that the Spade family has not been blessed by the Lord."
Charles' eyes lit up: "Your Majesty means... they are enemies?"
Girard was expressionless: "Illus Empire only needs a financial giant, understand?"
"Understood!"
Charles nodded hurriedly, surprised in his heart, and received His Majesty Gillard's approval, and his subsequent actions could be completely let go.
According to the normal plan, they first sniped the surrounding industries of the Spader family in the market, and then eroded their economic lifeline a little bit, and finally won the Spade family's mines and completely monopolized the entire industry.
But it is different now. After obtaining Gillard's approval, they can even launch a beheading operation - directly kill Mandel Spader, the patriarch of the Spader family, and even kill all the eldest and second sons who have the right of inheritance. If they don't need to do it, the Spade family will themselves fall into civil unrest.
On the other side, in a secret room in the capital.
"It's getting worse."
Aubrey said in a low voice: "Gillard has ordered the conscription of the military forces of the two territories of Mattani and Albalon. If you don't count the materials and logistics, the rapid march will arrive at the capital in seven days, and fourteen days later. It will reach the territory of Taris, and form a siege with the Third Legion to completely surround Taris."
Adrian knocked on the table and said in a deep voice: "He seems to have noticed that we are ordering the first and second legions to isolate the capital, so he directly transfers troops... But such a large-scale military transfer will definitely cause other countries Attention, perhaps, now Illus has become the fat in the eyes of those countries."
"There is news from Dunn that after a day of confrontation, the battle at Fort Kasparmi has subsided, and the 10,000-strong army of the Third Army has been completely defeated, leaving no one behind."
"This is good news, at least the combat effectiveness of the Third Army has been reduced by a third."
"Not necessarily. According to Dunn's news, the soldiers of the Third Legion have all received terrifying transformations. Their strength and defense are very strong. Without the power of magic, it is difficult to kill them effectively."
As soon as Aubrey said these words, Adrian's face immediately turned very bad: "Damn, are we going to ask the City of Silver for help?"
"Even if they ask for help, they may not take action. Don't forget, the primary goal of the City of Silver is to monitor the Chaos Gate, and they promise not to join politics and war."
Adrian said coldly, "Don't they care if Clark died in a wrongful way?"
Aubrey was silent for a moment: "Maybe... give it a try? No, wait, I have a better way!"
Adrian had a flash of inspiration and said in unison with Aubrey, "Elves!"
The elves who have a close relationship with Dunn are undoubtedly the best choice for magic support. Every adult clan of them has powerful magic power!
The only question now is...
The elves will not participate in human wars.
"Look for Dunn."
Aubrey came to a conclusion: "I think it is more reliable to find him than to find the City of Silver - at least there is a teleportation array to go directly."
So, the matter is settled.
"Besides that, I think it is necessary for us to confess the current situation with the Holy See of Light."
"But the Holy See will not interfere in politics and the struggle for kingship."
Adrian said very seriously: "It is no longer a political incident of Girard killing his father and treason, but the awakening of the dark power of the cultists. They want to provoke a war to destroy everything. This is not an interference with the kingship! The Templars of the Holy See The regiment has every reason to be dispatched!"
