In Griffin's vanguard position, in the tent, the eldest prince of the empire, Alex, knelt down humbly.

Kneel before Phaethon, the **** of the star palace.

He had never been so reverent in his life, sinking his dignity into the mud, crawling like maggots.

"Just like the Arcane Council that is about to be reborn from ashes." He said sincerely and earnestly, "The empire that has gone astray also needs your guidance and teaching!"

Griffin, who was standing beside him, had anger in his eyes.

But Phaerson had a look of interest.

"Humans are really interesting." He looked at the submissive kneeling in front of him, "You are going to rebel against your father?"

Alex suddenly raised his head, the handsome and elegant imperial prince looked directly at the indifferent gaze of the God of Star Palace, and the flattering words that had already reached his mouth suddenly choked back in his stomach.

He was silent for a moment, then replied calmly: "Although the empire has a hostile relationship with Kant in fact, in private, my father admires Kant very much. This is the information and conclusion I have obtained after multiple confirmations. A long time ago, he A formal invitation is issued to Kant, inviting him to join the Empire."

"The conditions are unprecedentedly favorable - assigning a piece of the empire to him to establish a country, marrying one of my sisters to him, and even after the marriage, that sister still retains the competition and the right to inherit the throne..."

Having said that, that Junyi's face was twisted with resentment, hatred and even... fear.

"From then on, I understood, my father, he has no heart."

Fingers pressed on the ground, gripped tightly, pinching pale and blue veins.

"Kant has clearly refused more than once, but he didn't take it seriously, and he insisted on inviting Kant, just like a stalking dog. In those days, I didn't care on the surface, but in my heart. I'm scared to death. I know Kant is a vengeful person. My father's conditions are already rich to that point, but he doesn't care about it. I'm afraid there is only one reason..."

Alex hissed: "He's going to kill me, no matter what. And if he agrees to his father's conditions and invitations, it means letting go of that hatred... He refuses no matter what."

Having said this, he laughed nervously: "Damn...Damn! I didn't do anything to him! Aren't he and Princess Goethe alive and well! It's just that some unimportant people died! Only It's just a misunderstanding that has passed, why doesn't he let go! Why!"

Roaring wildly, shouting, and even pounding the ground.

For more than a year, the name Kant has slowly become a nightmare that can hold his heart in the dark.

Getting stronger and stronger.

He knew every invitation from his father and every rejection from Kant.

Every time... he could feel his father's icy gaze hovering over him.

It is calculating, weighing, and judging.

"Father gave Kant such favorable conditions, one is to show his sincerity and win him over, and the other is to ask him to give up his revenge against me." Alex knelt on the ground and laughed madly.

"He doesn't want Kant to kill me... But the reason is not because he loves me, but if the emperor's eldest son is killed by the Aurora Dragon, it will damage the face of the empire and his majesty anyway."

"...he's not my father." Alex's shoulders shook. "He's a settler."

"I can guarantee that once in his mind, the benefits of Kant's joining are greater than the reputation loss of killing me, then he will not hesitate to bundle me up and give it to Kant - if Kant wants to see father and son kill each other, He wouldn't even hesitate to hack me to death."

The royal family's relationship is weak, and the father and son are so cold. It is a sad story anyway, but the two listeners present were heartbroken and regarded it as a basic exercise, and even wanted to laugh.

Faersson sneered: "So you came to me? Do you think I will help you?"

"I just want to remind you that in his mind, the scales have tipped over."

The first prince said in a low voice: "Because you appeared... unknown position, mysterious origin, and assisted the chief speaker in slaughtering the Tower of All-Seeing, and brought artifact and technology that can restrain Kant and surpass the level of the mortal world. With his suspicion and wariness , he will definitely see you and Speaker Griffin as a threat, because he doesn't know you, but he knows Kant, and if he has to choose a side, he will choose Kant's side."

"He will directly ask Kant who you are, and will tend to believe what he says, and even join forces directly, or simply further invite Kant to join the empire."

Alex said indifferently: "He is from Aurora, the Elf Queen is his concubine, and now the Empire is on his side, not to mention the Southern Council that had to stand with him originally."

"Do you understand? Your Excellency, the Great Speaker, the anti-Kang encirclement network that you carefully concocted may be easily torn to shreds in an instant, because one of the key nodes of this plan has begun to loosen, and it should have been the backbone of the anti-Kang De. The empire of power may become Kant's closest ally."

Hearing this, Griffin sneered.

"Boy, the members of the Senate Senate are prone to lying and bluffing. They always say 70% true and 30% false, or 70% truth and 3% exaggeration. You play this rhetoric with me, it's like talking in front of me. Arcane theory is the same - I ask you, do you have any evidence that your father will directly join forces with Kant? Do you think you can fool us by telling a little truth and then bluffing and exaggerating?"

Alex was stunned.

The emperor will directly join hands with Kant, he really has no evidence, and he is not sure.

In all fairness, in his opinion, his father should not bet easily, because the origin and strength of the mysterious person who assisted Griffin are still unclear, and Kant's ability is limited, the power balance and the source of conflict between the two sides are not yet clear. There is no reason to choose a team now.

- But in front of Griffin and this mysterious man, of course, it is going to be bad.

Because he has had enough.

He's had enough of the days of being put on the scales by the emperor to weigh and worry.

so…

"That's not the point." He bowed his head deeply to Phaethon, "...Your Majesty."

The soul, twisted in fear, cowardice, madness and hatred, speaks with the most humility.

"The point is, the current emperor of the empire is watching here on guard at this time, and is considering whether to collude and ally with your enemy..."

He said calmly: "And the next emperor of the empire, in the eternal future, will kneel in front of you as he does now, and dedicate everything he has to you."

Before he finished speaking, he saw a mouthful of spit splashing in front of him.

"It's disgusting." Griffin said solemnly, "The blood of your ancestors is ashamed of it."

These words stabbed the eldest prince's heart like a dagger.

But he has come here, he has knelt down.

And, he's already used to it.

He suppressed the pain and emotion in his heart, which had become an instinctive habit under the emperor's perennial pressure and repression... He always showed his favorite side in front of his father.

Alex's eyes swept away quickly.

Griffin, who was pale and contemptuous, and the "crown" who was smiling but frowning slightly beside him.

With what his intelligence network could get, the information about the murder of the Tower of All-Seeing came to mind.

From the moment he came in, he was judging the relationship between Griffin and You-Know-Who.

And now, His Majesty's smile was for Alex, and his frown was for Griffin.

understood.

"It appears that Chancellor Griffin still lives with pride, integrity and dignity."

Alex knelt up straight, without squinting: "I am different from you, only from the unheard and unseen defensive magic tool, I realize that the great one like the gods has come. Mortal beings, Ben You should look up at the stars in the sky, maybe it's better than Lord Griffin Williams still maintaining his self-esteem as a king, but for me..."

He said loudly, "It is the greatest honor to be the crowned dog!"

The next moment, Alex heard the word "OK".

"You ant." Phaethon showed a rare happy smile, "It's really very interesting."

Griffin frowned: "He..."

The God of Star Palace waved his hand and said, "I think what he said makes sense."

The forerunners living in the star palace showed a sense of superiority engraved in the depths of their souls towards the mortal ants. They regarded themselves as gods, possessed power, and were proud.

It's just that this pride has been constantly shaken recently. First, the star palace was pierced by a terrifying light spear. After Faersson and his companions explored the lower realm, they were caught and beaten by fire thieves. Is teetering and desperately needs replenishment.

But his partner, Griffin, is a jerk.

He has always been rebellious, never surrendered, let alone a submissive heart. He considers himself a "partner" and can't position himself at all.

Until now, Phaersson had to hide in the camp, watching Griffin chatting and laughing with the officers and even the observers, but he had to hide behind the scenes and contact Apophis every day to ask for military assistance.

Coupled with the lingering shadow of the fire thieves, the terrifying shock of the natural enemy hangs like a sharp sword, and various factors have caused Phaethon's mood value to drop continuously. It is impossible for him to say to Griffin, "I'm in a bad mood, I'm scared, and I'm still a little lonely, so come and praise me and worship me." In this way, facing Griffin every day, the God of the Star Palace is in a good mood. Imagine.

Until today, finally a well-behaved person appeared in front of him.

And he is the emperor of the empire—although he is the next one.

But...why not?

For Phaersson, it doesn't matter who is the emperor of the ants, so why can't he be the most well-behaved and docile one? As he himself said - while the current emperor of the empire is still foolishly on guard, the next emperor is already kneeling here.

With a slight tick, Alex got up involuntarily.

"You're very good." Faersson applauded, "As an ant, your loyalty and vision are extraordinary. Listen up, Nether species, this is a good opportunity that is hard to come by for thousands of years. For some reason, The Star Palace has the opportunity to use you, and if you perform well, we will not be stingy with rewards."

The first prince was overjoyed.

He suppressed his trembling voice and said loudly: "I only ask for His Majesty's protection, and I will not die under Kant's hatred and revenge. I will do my best to fight for His Majesty's great cause!"

"The emperor of the empire has colluded with Kant and is your enemy. He is no longer worthy of being an emperor. If I become an emperor, I will definitely dedicate all the manpower and material resources of this country to conquer Kant, the enemy, for his majesty!"

How nice.

Phaethon looked into the eyes of the eldest prince.

Indeed, it is much stronger than Griffin.

Only the ability and strength are far inferior to Griffin.

But that's okay.

Ability and strength, Xinggong can give him, as long as he has loyalty.

There are also many chess pieces buried deep within the empire.

As soon as the God of Star Palace thought of this, he turned his head to look at Griffin, and asked in front of Alex: "He said that Kant would never let him go. Is this hatred so deep?"

Griffin hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "Yes. Their grievances can be traced back to Huisha. Everyone knows that Kant's first battle in his debut was the most ruthless and the most maddening killing of Kant. The battle that everyone recognized was the most likely to kill Kant. It's a pity that at the time, no one paid attention to this little-known man of Aurora - it was Alex who planned that battle."

Alex gave Griffin a grim look.

Then, without saying a word, he knelt down and admitted his mistake: "Please forgive my stupidity at the time, and I didn't solve this troublesome enemy in advance for Your Majesty."

Faersson was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the eldest prince kneeling on the ground, his tone was actually calm: "You don't have to be afraid, my pride does not allow me to anger you... After all, it was not you ants who killed the fire thieves in advance. You don't deserve what you can do."

There was silence in the tent, and Alex and Griffin looked at each other silently, a hint of horror flashed in their eyes.

And there was even a wistful sigh in the voice of the God of Star Palace... and nostalgia.

Fire thieves.

It will only be born due to the awakening of the master. That is the most eternal law in the universe. How can some mortal mudbloods break this sacred ceremony and destiny?

only…

Why is there a second fire thief in this era of the mortal world?

This is a question that Phoeson has been puzzled by.

"Fire Thief?"

Alex said cautiously: "Your Majesty, can you tell your loyal servant what a fire thief is? Is Kant a fire thief? What does this name mean?"

The God of Star Palace glanced at him impatiently: "This is not something you should know."

"Yes, yes." Alex hurriedly smiled, "I just wanted to share your worries... Sure enough, I knew that Kant, this guy of unknown origin, was very suspicious, and he didn't look like Aurora at all. The person who suddenly appeared in this world must have a plan, fortunately, he was crowned..."

Phaerson's body shuddered suddenly.

He suddenly came to Alex, grabbed his collar, and snapped, "What did you say?"

The eldest prince turned pale with fright, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "It was I who said it wrong, it was I who talked too much, my majesty, please forgive me, I am a poor imperial ant, don't see me like me..."

"-To shut up!"

Fauson's eyes widened: "What did you just say, say it again!"

"I just want to share for you..."

"It's not this sentence! It's Kant's!"

"Kant, this guy...a guy of unknown origin..." Alex didn't know what was going on, he was so frightened that he could barely speak, and he repeated it off and on.

He only felt that His Majesty's hand was shaking as he grabbed his collar.

Under the appearance of panic, Alex was observing calmly and keenly.

- Are you afraid? No, I realized something.

— It seems that the clue to the answer to the biggest mystery that has been haunting him.

- What's the clue? What is the puzzle?

- What did I just say? It's about Kant.

The First Prince thought instinctively.

The words about Kant reminded him...that must be descriptive words.

unknown origins.

Not like Aurora at all.

suddenly appeared in this world.

conspiracy...

The key words that give inspiration to the **** of the star palace must be in these four sentences...

What will it be? What will it be?

A flash of light flashed through Alex's mind.

He remembered many memories about Kant... When this Aurora was stirring up the storm on the mainland, everything he brought was hidden under a huge mystery.

- No matter it is forbidden spell or alchemy, it can't be the skill of Aurora!

The president of the Royal Austrian Law Society spoke decisively.

- There was absolutely no such person when the Goethe mission set off!

Danfeng Lucerne's eyeliner returned absolutely unmistakable information.

- His way of doing things, ideas and governing strategies are very different from those of Aurora!

The conclusion of sociologists is this.

- This is by no means an achievement that can be achieved by one's wisdom!

Kant's "alchemy" achievements are all over this far port, from food to weapons, from clothes to daily necessities, the number is endless, and the field covers a very wide range. I don't know how many alchemists doubt life.

Between the lights and flints, all the doubts and thoughts were threaded into a thread. With Phoeson's reminder, while chewing on those few words, an inspiration ran through Alex's brain.

He came up with that bold conjecture at the same time as Phaethon.

-Kant is not from this world!

When space science came out as a complete and rigorous theoretical theory, plane travel has become the most romantic reverie of mages. This concept is not unfamiliar in the mortal world.

— Fire thieves are not fire thieves of this world.

Misled by the repeated events of countless epochs and years, Phaersson has been struggling with stereotypes and mental constraints, and at this moment he suddenly realizes that when he jumps out of the fence, all doubts can be explained clearly... not just doubts .

Still a piece of exciting, joyful, enthusiastic, fanatical... good news for him.

He shouted, swept away, disappeared in an instant, and left the camp.

Soon after, Apophis, who was sitting in the star palace, received new news.

"I'm Phaethon, and I have to report an update, Apophis, the mortal battle plan must be overhauled, and our strategic objectives have changed significantly..."

In the tent, facing Griffin's gloomy gaze, Alex quietly retreated.

The eldest prince whispered: "Speaker, my little nephew is just trying to survive, and I just said something bad, don't take it to heart, and I don't dare to argue with you..."

Griffin smiled kindly and raised his hand slightly.

Alex was horrified.

-Oops!

He shouted: "Speaker! Take me up and give it to Kant, leaving a way back. Of course, it's a good move, but Kant is not a particular person. If you shake it out and let your majesty know, What should I do? It's better to leave me alive, we are our own!"

The Great Speaker was not smiling, but at this moment, someone shouted outside: "Great Speaker! Emergency military situation!"

Griffin glanced at Alex, the first prince hid behind him wisely, the officer sent him into the military situation, the grand speaker took a few glances, and sighed faintly.

"Kant has marched."
