Chapter 440: Descending upon the Palace!
Chapter 440: Descending upon the Palace!
When Mike arrived at the palace, he first glanced at Akari, who gave him a negative look. Mike instantly heaved a sigh of relief.
Mike said to the Ruler, “Your Majesty, there’s something I want to say to you.”
The Ruler nodded and said to Mike, “There’s no harm in saying it.”
Mike said, “Your Majesty, the situation on the other side of the river is already very bad. I’m afraid that there are already tens or even hundreds of divine-tier battle prowess gathered at the Otherworld’s port. If you don’t take action now, you’ll probably be at a great disadvantage in the future.”
The Ruler felt that Mike was exaggerating. He asked, “Tell me, how did you know that the Otherworld has tens or hundreds of divine-tier battle prowess? Where did the Otherworld get these tens or hundreds of divine-tier battle prowess from?”
Mike said to the leader, “What if the enemy is in contact with the outside world? It’s true that outsiders can not enter the high-level barrier, but the materials can enter. If there is a potion inside that can create divine-tier battle prowess, wouldn’t all of this make sense?”
The Ruler frowned. He understood that what Mike said was indeed a place worth paying attention to. He looked at Mike and asked, “Is there anything else?”
Mike frowned and asked, “May I ask Your Majesty, are these not enough to attract your attention? These are enough. There are tens to hundreds of divine-tier enemies. This is not a battle between ordinary people. If they activate the power of heaven and earth at the same time, you must be very clear about the destructive power they will produce.”
The Ruler said, “Of course, I’m clear about this matter. However, you should at least give me some time to set up a defense, right? How many of the experts you want to draw will need to be carefully considered. If you’re in a hurry, you can bring your men up to hold them off for a while. I can write a written approval for you.”
Mike cursed the Ruler in his heart a thousand times. He shook his head and said, “Since His
sajesty is clear about the pros and cons, then I’ll take my leave.”
The Ruler said to Mike, ‘You and Akari are both rare talents on this realm. In the future, you must help each other kill the king and live tenaciously on this land.”
Mike could feel that the Ruler was a little angry
Mike thought that he could not stay here any longer, so he said goodbye to the Ruler.
The Ruler looked at Mike’s disappearing figure and said to the princes on both sides, “What do you think of these two people?”
The Sea King immediately understood what the Ruler meant. He immediately jumped out and said, “These two people are extraordinarily talented and powerful. They are both rare talents. Unfortunately…”
The Ruler raised his eyebrows and asked, “Unfortunately for what?”
The Sea King hurriedly replied, “But we can’t use him. Look at him just now. It’s as if he is the master of the other world, and he was belittling you.”
When the Ocean King heard this, his heart was shocked. He had underestimated the extent of the Sea King’s shamelessness. He hurriedly said, “Shut up! I’ve never seen a person like you who instigates things like this! When Mike came in just now, his words were filled with obedience. Even if he went against His Majesty, it was just the arrogance of youth. It wasn’t as serious as you said. If it was as you said, then Mike wouldn’t be able to live! Are you treating His Majesty as a foolish leader? What exactly are your intentions?”
The Ruler sighed. When he heard what the Ocean King said, he understood that the Ocean King was determined to protect Mike. The Ruler quickly stood up and said, “My two royal brothers, don’t be angry. It’s not worth it for us to quarrel for the sake of an outsider. Let’s put Mike’s matter aside for now. Let’s discuss whether or not we should send more troops to the port.”
The Sea King laughed coldly. “How do you know that he isn’t bluffing us with a fake piece of news? Mike has gone crazy from wanting to take over the Otherworld. It’s understandable for him to use such a foolish move.”
The Sea King looked at the Ruler, cupped his hands, and said, “Your Majesty, this subject has long since found out that there are only two divine-tier experts in the Otherworld. We only need to transfer the county governors of the two prefectures to the region harbor’s exit. Why would we need to go through so much trouble just for a piece of fake news?”
The Sea King wanted to say something else, but he was stopped by the Ruler. The Ruler said, “I’ll think about this. All of you can leave first. I’ll call for all of you in a while.”
Everyone left the palace.
Seeing that everyone had left, the Ruler suddenly said, “Which one of them do you think is true?”
A phantom appeared from the virtual space. He said, “What that Mike said might not be true, but what that Sea King said must be false.”
The Ruler suddenly opened his eyes and asked, “Are you sure?” The phantom said, “You can choose not to believe me. I’m just a reference. I’m just a contracted beast of yours. You can think about it for yourself. Would an organization that has more than five high-level divinet-tier experts only send two divine-tier experts?”
The Ruler nodded, took a deep breath, and said to the phantom, “Then from today onwards, increase the surveillance on the Sea King. As long as he makes any strange movements, immediately…” The Ruler makes a throat-slicing motion. The phantom nodded and said to the Ruler, “Understood.”
The leader stood up, drew the treasured sword at his waist, looked at the sharp blade, and said, “Mike, are you a disaster or not? Are you also looking for that thing’?”.
As soon as the Ruler finished his words, he slashed out with his sword, and a moth was immediately cut into countless halves.
Mike walked quickly on the road outside the palace. His face was gloomy and he did not say a word. The guard who led the way and Akari were far behind him.
Mike walked to the front of the palace, and a guard stopped him. “Stop, what are you doing?”
“Get lost!” Mike shook the guard away.
In an instant, all the guards raised their weapons toward Mike, summoned their summoned beasts, and looked at Mike nervously.
“Stop!” The guard leading the way walked over and asked, “What happened?”
Another guard walked over and recounted the situation in detail.
The guard who was leading the way looked at Mike, whose expression was uncertain. After pondering for a moment, he said to Mike and Akari, “Please go back first, the matters here will be handled.”
Akari nodded, pulled Mike, and left.
After Mike left, the guard who was leading the way said to the guard at the center gate, “Brothers, please forgive us for today’s matter.”
The guard asked when he heard the guard’s words, “Who is he?”
The guard said, “He is here to face His Majesty directly, and twice. I don’t know why he is like this. I only know that if none of you are injured, it is best to put this matter behind us. This is good for everyone. I will tell your superior and let him remember your merits.”
The few of them were initially very indignant, but when they heard the word ‘remember’, all of their anger disappeared. They promised to forget about this matter.
The guard heaved a sigh of relief. He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and looked back at the palace in surprise. He did not understand what had happened. Suddenly, he recalled the expression of the Ruler he saw when he opened the palace door, what kind of expression was that? It looked a little angry and a little disdainful, but at the same time, it seemed to hide a hint of worry.
The guard was stunned. Then, he laughed. That was the Ruler, the master of the Otherworld, an existence that all the princes and dukes of the Otherworld had to fear. How could there be anything that could make him worry?
The guard shook his head, trying to forget this entire matter. However, the more he tried to forget about this matter, the more it was like a nail, firmly nailed to his mind.
The guard was a little terrified. He decided to first call in sick and take a look.
