But the emperor was suspicious and could not completely trust even a human being, let alone a creature that was not even human. "Okay, let's go back to the original topic." Seeing that Judas no longer asked about this matter, Phucius brought the topic back: "I can't do anything about the Golden Dynasty. But I can send my descendants to help you fight against the Fa. Victory on the battlefield of the Holy Empire of Lance. Unlike those half-baked Shadow Thorns under your command, you know how powerful our concealment is, and we can truly achieve silent assassination." Judas did not agree immediately, but asked: "Speak out your request, Phosius. I don't think you shadow creatures will be so kind to help for free." Fusius nodded, although it was difficult to tell from the twisted shadows that he was nodding: "Yes, I would like to ask you to help collect the corpses of the soldiers of the Holy Empire of France who have been blessed by angels. Of course, if It would be even better if you could contribute a complete angel corpse to us." Judas still did not agree, but said: "Soldiers blessed by angels will basically not stay in the army of the Holy Empire of France, but will be picked up by the Holy Pope State. And the corpse of an angel is even more impossible. Not to mention how much it costs to kill an angel, just seeing an angel is very difficult, and there are only two complete angel corpses in the Holy Pope Kingdom. You are forcing others to do something difficult, Fuxius." "Please don't misunderstand, Judas." Phocius said: "I am not asking you immediately to bring the corpse of a soldier blessed by an angel or to kill an angel. I have a lot of time and I am very patient. As long as you and The fighting in the Holy Empire of France continues to intensify, and the Holy Papal State, as an ally, will definitely not be able to help but take action. The possibility of you encountering angel soldiers will be very high. By then, it will be completely safe to provide the bodies of these soldiers to me. OK." Judas thought about it again and again, and found that the conditions given by Phucius were actually very loose. His eyes changed several times, and finally he nodded under the huge military pressure of the Holy Empire of France: "Okay, I promise you." Then he felt a rare emotion of joy from the twisted shadow monster of Phucius. The last time he saw it was when he and his father provided each other with a complete dragon corpse. Judas couldn't help but ask: "Why do you want these corpses? And what did you do with the previous dragon corpse?"
Phocius glanced at Judas, as if he was thinking about whether to tell him his purpose. "For evolution." Forsius said slowly, thinking that this human being who had been cooperating for a long time could tell him his purpose. Judas looked puzzled: "Evolution?" "Yes, for the sake of evolution. We shadow creatures do not have our own true form and can only exist in the material world in this twisted way. However, we found that devouring only those powerful creatures in the material world allows us to imitate their appearance , so we started to study this. Then we found that the more powerful the devoured creature was, the more realistic our imitation would be." As Forsius said, the shadow on his body twisted and deformed. In Judas's eyes, Forsius quickly turned into a proportionally scaled shadow dragon, with shock in his pupils. "The dragon's corpse allows me to move without scruples in the material world. Unfortunately, you and your ancestors only provided six dragon corpses in total. If more can be provided, I want my people and descendants to Everyone can have the ability to imitate a dragon." As he spoke, the shadow dragon transformed by Forsius turned into a twisted shadow again. Judas immediately shook his head: "No, I'm afraid Dragon Island has discovered some problems. If those pure-blooded dragons weren't still sleeping, they wouldn't even be able to get the bodies of the six dragons." Then he thought of something and said: "Wait a minute, it seems that there is really a giant dragon that is not recognized by Dragon Island and is wandering outside." Phucius suddenly rushed over, and countless black hands stretched out from the shadows, eagerly grabbing Judas's clothes, and asked: "Where is that giant dragon?" Judas calmly glanced at the black human hands wriggling and twisting on his clothes, and said to Forsius: "Unfortunately, it is still within the territory of the Golden Dynasty. And that dragon is very powerful, at least those hybrid dragons There’s nothing you can do about it.” Hearing that he was in the territory of the Golden Dynasty, Fusius took a few steps back and muttered to himself: "Golden Dynasty, Golden Dynasty, no, the dragon consumes a huge amount of meat every day, and it will definitely go out to hunt. This Time is our opportunity. But first we must send humans to the Golden Dynasty to find out the situation..." Judas looked at Phucius, who was immersed in his own world, with a look of success in his eyes. Golden Dynasty, this weird shadow creature play with you for now. Chapter 39: A small punishment Weiner, the capital of white walls, is the residence of Luyi Stacey. An exquisite-looking carriage slowly stopped in front of the iron gate covered with gold ribbons. Two guards in silver armor saluted the carriage, and a young man who looked like a butler stepped forward to open the carriage. "Mrs. Lu Yi, your residence has arrived." the housekeeper said. He is handsome, wearing a single spectacle, and wears dark gray slim-fitting clothes, which are decorated with metal decorations that highlight his noble status and the lark emblem of the Stacey family. After the young butler finished speaking, he immediately prostrated his body on the ground, arched his back, and stepped unceremoniously on his back with one foot wearing a black high-heeled shoe, and then stepped on the ground with the other foot.
The owner of those feet was naturally Lu Yi Stacey, and the housekeeper used his body as a step to get off the his mistress stepped on the clean slate floor, he stood up calmly, tidied his clothes, gently took Lu Yi's three fingers with his hand wrapped in white gloves, and pulled her with a respectful posture. He followed her towards his mansion. "While I'm not at home, are there any guests coming to visit?" Lu Yi's delicate face showed a polite smile, but the voice coming out of her mouth was not gentle at all. The young butler nodded slightly: "Yes, have the butlers from both the Morris House and the Swift House sent letters? I have placed the letters in your usual study room for your reading." "Yes." Lu Yi nodded. At this time, she was walking in the garden. The gardeners taking care of the flowers and the passing maids all sent happy greetings to her after seeing the mistress of the mansion return: "Welcome. (Praise) You, Ms. Luyi Stacey, may time be with you forever.” Lu Yi smiled and nodded at them one by one, but his eyes were still so indifferent. After all, she advertises herself to the outside world as a kind-hearted and benevolent lady, so she still has to pretend. Don’t get me wrong, she has not changed her opinion about what she said to Roland more than 30 years ago: “Domestic animals must be self-aware.”It's just that Lu Yi found that as long as she showed her kindness, the humble commoners she looked down upon would become loyal to her and speak good words for her with a hundredfold sincerity. This allowed her to show this kind-looking smile in front of these servants. While Lu Yi was talking with the housekeeper, he entered his fire attribute magic crystal embedded in the wall has long been activated, and the room exudes a mild and comfortable temperature. She took off her heavy and gorgeous aristocratic coat, revealing the figure-flattering clothes butler took the coat with respectful hands, and later handed it over to the housekeeper who was responsible for taking care of the hostess's clothes. "Where is my idle husband?" Lu Yi simply took care of his hair and asked casually. "The master is in his room playing with the items he recently purchased, as if he is composing some opera. Do you need me to inform him of your return?" the housekeeper bent slightly and asked. Lu Yi showed an expression of "Sure enough, he is doing this" and shook his head: "No, I will go over and say hello to him myself. I will make a pot of black tea and send it to my study later. You can leave." "Yes." Faced with the hostess's refusal, the young butler responded respectfully and took a few steps back, then held the luxurious coat that Lu Yi had taken off in his hands and walked towards the changing room. Lu Yi sighed be honest, her current husband is just an old aristocrat who likes poetry and acting, and will not be of any help to her current career. As for her previous husband, Faulkner, he was a waste in terms of business and negotiation. Roland, who co-founded the Lulan Chamber of Commerce with her, took over most of her work... Thinking of this, Lu Yi frowned and immediately drove the name out of his mind. It seems that I have been really busy recently, and I can actually think of that disgusting laughed at herself and walked up the red solid wood stairs to the second floor. She walked all the way to the door of her fun-loving husband's room and knocked gently. However, she waited at the door for a while, and no response came from the room. Lu Yi showed an unhappy look, she thought it was herself "Carom?" She raised her voice impatiently and called her husband's name. But there was still no sound. Lu Yi then showed an annoyed expression. She twisted the door handle, only to find that Carlom had not locked the door at all. So Lu Yi opened the door angrily, and her husband's messy room filled with various performance scripts, props and costumes appeared in front of Lu Yi. But there was no sign of her husband in it. "Carlom, where have you been hiding? Do you still want your performance funds?" Lu Yi thought that his husband, who behaved like a child, was playing a hide-and-seek game with him, and his tone was full of impatience. .
Then there was still no response, so Lu Yi frowned and observed carefully. The housekeeper will not lie to him, and his husband will not disappear for no Yi lifted his slender legs and moved his feet step by step to reach Carlom's desk. There is also his unfinished play script on the desk. The quill is lying on it, and the black ink has stained the clean script. Ever since Lu Yi mentioned the entertainment form of drama to him, Carlom fell in love with this kind of thing out of control. The pen for writing and his own script are naturally very messy arrangement of the quills clearly does not look like a normal outing. Lu Yi immediately walked out of Carlom's drama room and called his butler: "Grot?" Even though she kept calling, she found that there was no response from her housekeeper. Only her own voice echoed emptyly in the wide corridor. The temperature in the room was obviously very warm, but it made Lu Yi feel a chill in his heart. Lu Yi realized that an enemy had sneaked into his she didn't look panicked. Instead, she moved to the window that would let in the sunlight and looked at her garden. Her pupils shrank, and neither the gardener who was working hard in the garden a few minutes ago, nor the maids who were drying clothes in the garden and chatting and laughing with each other were all missing. There were no traces of struggle or blood on the ground. She looked towards the door again, and the two guards wearing silver armor and the Praetorian Guards sent by His Majesty Judah were also missing. "Okay, I won't resist, please come out." Lu Yi showed an expression of resignation and talked to the empty corridor: "Which family are you from? The Mellen family Or the Kachin family? I hope you didn't attack my poor husband. He actually didn't know what I was doing at Lulan Chamber of Commerce. I would still have a headache if he died. After all, according to the rules of our aristocracy, he We are still the head of the Stacey family, and we have no heirs. So the person who inherits the Stacy family cannot be my foreign wife, but can only be a distant relative of who knows how many generations of blood relationship. I can't put Stacey into the family. The Xi family is handed over to such a guy with unknown origins." After Lu Yi finished speaking, the corridor was still as dead as ever. She frowned, thinking about her next move. As the owner of the largest chamber of commerce in the Charles Empire, she must have the tools to survive and escape, so Lu Yi was so confident in trying to talk to the other party. What's more, she could sense that the other party had no intention of taking her life. "I believe you are not trying to kill me, but to give me a warning, right?" Lu Yi showed a confident smile, fully displaying his beautiful, mature and charming face that time could not affect too much at that time. "Perhaps you are worried that my death will cause the Lulan Chamber of Commerce to split. This huge consortium will affect the economic situation of most places in Charles's empire. Or maybe you are just a group of powerful and simple kidnappers who want sky-high kidnapping fees. .” "Otherwise you would have attacked me long ago, wouldn't you?" Lu Yi finished speaking a lot and waited quietly. She didn't know how long it took, but when Lu Yi felt that her legs were sore from standing, she heard a sigh. "Hey···" Lu Yi's eyes narrowed, and he quickly put his left hand into his clothes and pinched an alchemy tool. However, the opponent was faster than Lu Yi, and along with the sigh appeared the black shadow spreading on the smooth marble floor. A hand covered with shadows turned into a sharp blade and directly cut off Lu Yina's hand that had reached into the clothes. Then the sharp blade turned into a human hand again and pinched Lu Yina's palm that was about to fall to the ground, pinching the alchemy tool in his palm. I gently threw it out the window. "Boom——!" The vibration caused by the explosion shattered the transparent glass, and splashed everywhere on the marble floor in the room. "Ah ah ah -" Lu Yi's screams were heard together with the pain caused by the broken left hand made Lu Yi fall to the ground, half of her clothes were stained red with the blood spurting from her wound. Lu Yi's face turned pale with pain. She gasped for air and said tremblingly: "Shadow Thorn, is it Elizabeth? Are you finally tempted to attack your relatives?" A female figure emerged from the shadows, and the darkness faded away from her, revealing that the blonde woman inside was none other than Elizabeth. "Good afternoon, Grandma Lu Yi." Elizabeth looked at Lu Yi's embarrassed look with a smile and said hello.
"Sure enough, it's you. Have you finally gone crazy?" Lu Yi saw that it was Elizabeth. The pain in her body and the anger in her heart made her unable to maintain her aristocratic self-control and cursed. Elizabeth knelt down and looked at Lu Yi's expression up close with a satisfied and happy smile. When the blood in her left hand began to flow more and more, and the hypothermia and dizziness caused by excessive blood loss made it impossible for Lu Yi to speak fluently, she spoke slowly: "Although I really want you to lose blood like this. You will die from too much, but the task assigned to me by above is to ensure your survival, Grandma Lu Yi." "Above...?" Lu Yi's brain had begun to slow down due to excessive blood loss. "Yes, the above is the order personally issued by His Majesty Judah. Oops, the captain thought he was joking with me when he assigned me this task. This is an opportunity to legitimately retaliate against you. How could I possibly Did you miss it?" Elizabeth took out a green pill containing rich life energy from her close-fitting clothes and stuffed it into Lu Yi's mouth without any ceremony. When the green pill entered Lu Yi's mouth, it automatically turned into liquid and flowed into her his body absorbed life energy, Lu Yi's face began to gradually turn rosy again. Elizabeth stood up again and watched as the neat wound on Lu Yi's left hand that she had cut began to gradually stop bleeding and heal on its own. "His Majesty Judah said, Grandma Lu Yi, your hand has been stretched too long recently, so I want to give you a warning. So I will accept this left hand for His Majesty Judah." Elizabeth did not return Lu Yi's palm, but smiled. Throw it in the air and catch it again. Then she brought Lu Yi's left hand, which was as well-kept as a girl's, in front of her eyes and showed a confused smile: "It is indeed a body that I spend a lot of money to take care of every day. She is obviously an old woman in her seventies and eighties, but even this palm They are all so charming, I think if it were sold on the black market, there would be a lot of psychopathic aristocratic men who would be crazy to buy your hand, right? Grandma Lu Yi?" Lu Yi just stared at Elizabeth fiercely and did not say any she knew that no matter what she said at this time, it would only make Elizabeth feel more happy. "Tsk, that's boring." Sure enough, Lu Yi couldn't be seen showing a more interesting expression, and Elizabeth's original playful expression quickly turned into boredom, and she threw her palm back into Lu Yi's arms. Lu Yi used his intact right hand to pick up the palm of his left hand with difficulty. He raised his left arm and set the direction, then reattached his left hand. With sufficient biological energy, it was soon intact as before. Lu Yi continued to slump on the ground. When his body was completely healed, he stood up slightly tremblingly. He looked at Elizabeth and said in a hoarse voice: "Please go back and answer His Majesty Judah. I have completely reflected on my mistakes. Lulan Chamber of Commerce is willing The free transfer can provide three legions with two weeks of food and fodder to support military operations with the Holy Empire of France on the border." After saying this, she took a deep breath and said, "I guessed that His Majesty Judah still has this meaning, right? The recent battle reports from the front are not good, and I have heard about it. In addition, I have recently been with People in the army are relatively close, so His Majesty Judah using me to kill chickens and scare monkeys is a very correct choice to scare those who have strange ideas, not to mention that you can get free funding from me." "As expected of the wife of the first founder of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce, her thinking is as quick as ever." Elizabeth deliberately called Lu Yi this way, making the latter look bored. "Don't call me a name that makes me sick to my stomach. Your revenge is almost over. If you continue to drag it on, it will not be good for you and His Majesty Judah." Lu Yi glanced at the bombed building outside his mansion. The other people attracted by the sound were all pawns sent by other nobles to investigate the situation. They just wanted to enter the mansion to find out what was going on. They were immediately blocked by two silver-armored guards who reappeared at the door, so they all gathered in a group outside the iron gate to communicate with each other. "You are right, so I will take my leave now, Grandma Lu Yi." Elizabeth nodded in agreement. If it hadn't been for what had just happened, her tone would have been like that of a little girl saying goodbye to her elders coquettishly. Lu Yi frowned: "Where are Carlom? And where are the other servants in the manor?" Elizabeth showed a look of realization, then turned back and bowed to Lu Yi: "Oh, sorry, sorry, I forgot about this. They are all staying in the shadow space, I will release them right away." Elizabeth's smooth right hand drew a shadow analysis in the air, and a large number of corpses whose hearts were killed fell in pieces on the floor covered with glass Yi could tell that these were all servants of the manor. She even saw the young butler who had said goodbye to her not long ago. He was still holding on to the coat that he had taken off when he entered the house. Lu Yi's current husband, Carlom, was thrown out last. This poor man was not physically traumatized, but staying with so many corpses made him cover his ears with frightened hands and keep chanting prayers. . "They are all here, Grandma Lu Yi." Elizabeth reminded Lu Yi "friendly", and then returned to the shadows with light steps. Lu Yi watched Elizabeth's figure disappear completely before exhaling a breath, looking at the pile of corpses in front of him and his husband who was stunned by fright, his eyes flickered gloomily. Chapter 40:Fourth Princess Cecilia Capital of the Holy Empire of France. In the magnificent palace, the fourth princess Cecilia is walking alone in the spacious and tall corridor. Portraits are hung on both sides of the corridor. On the right are the emperors of the Holy Empire of France, and on the left are the emperors of the Holy Empire of France. A capable minister and general who has made outstanding contributions to the empire. Cecilia has long silky silver-white hair, and her eyes are like the twinkling stars in the beautiful night perfectly inherited her mother's beauty and tall figure, as well as her father's majesty and looks more like a heroic warrior who is ready to mount a gun and mount a horse at any time, rather than the current princess wearing a long white dress with gold trim and an image of an angel tattooed on it.
There are many rumors in the Holy Empire of France that if Cecilia had not been born as a daughter, she would be the most suitable heir to inherit the throne, and even the eldest prince Albert would not be able to compare with her. "Ta...ta..." Cecilia's footsteps echoed clearly in the corridor. When she turned the corner, she saw the second prince Noel who had been waiting for a long time. She immediately performed a royal etiquette to her blood brother, bowed slightly to him and greeted him: "Good afternoon, Brother Noel." "Good afternoon, Cecilia." Noel smiled and responded with the same courtesy. "Brother, do you have anything to say to me? Please keep your story short. I have made an appointment with a guest to meet in the mansion, but I cannot let the guest think that our Latour family is a royal family that likes to break appointments." Cecilia raised her head. , said while staring at Noel.
