Lord of Lowland

Chapter 169 The Emperor's Interest

As soon as Catlade said this, not only Emperor Horqin, but everyone present looked at him.

"How do you know them?" Emperor Horqin asked.

"I used to deal with the traitor Salaman when I was temporarily living in Artis Woodland in the Human Kingdom. The lord of Artis Woodland is called Cecil Augustine. He is the newly appointed baron. , He took over most of the territory including Artis Woodland, and is the lord of the territory just south of this city." Cartwright said cautiously.

"You mean that one of these two humans is the Baron Augustine you mentioned?" asked an old shaman beside Horqin.

"Judging from Master Herb's description, the lizard man pretending to be a paladin is Baron Cecil Augustine, and the mage pretending to be a werewolf looks very much like a powerful little girl next to him. This The little girl is very strange. She seems to be much stronger than ordinary mages. Especially her powerful teleportation ability is unforgettable. Her attainments in space magic are far beyond even Cabrada's legendary mages. Far from it." Cartlade said carefully, trying to appear as if he and Cecil were not that familiar. It would not be a good thing if the emperor knew that he, Cecil and others had teamed up to kill Salaman. .

After knowing this, the emperor did not dwell on this part. He just nodded, then looked at the body of the seven-headed snake, and said: "It has happened. I don't want to hold anyone responsible anymore. I just want to tell you that I don't want this to happen." If this happens again, if there is a next time, you don’t have to come back alive to see me. "

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the emperor let them go with a harsh word, but Horqin had no choice but to do so. The empire itself had many disharmonious factors. It had just been unified, and its foundation was not solid. The forces are very powerful.This time the legendary powerhouses were all destroyed. Although the Orc Empire lost a lot, the top powers of the tribes were also killed. A lot of resistance.So this loss is not a bad thing for the emperor.

It's just that the attack on the human kingdom must be slowed down, but if you can focus on consolidating the interior and making your position in the orc empire indestructible, then it can be regarded as a loss and a gain.It can be said to be an unexpected gain.

After thinking about it, the emperor said to these people: "The shaman takes the body of the seven-headed snake down, and studies the ingredients of the seven-headed snake carefully to see if we can extract ingredients that can benefit us. If possible , I believe it will also be of great benefit to us, you all go down first, I want to be alone."

After the emperor finished speaking, he waved his hands to the left and right, and the left and right sides of the emperor retreated. Horqin suddenly said, "Catwright, please stay."

Cartwright was taken aback, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse for the emperor to keep him, but now that the emperor had spoken, Cartwright could only stand where he was, watching the people go out one by one.After everyone had left, the emperor walked over slowly: "Catlaide, you seem to be very familiar with this Baron Augustine of the human kingdom."

Carter was surprised. "Because I also stayed in Attis Woodland, I have heard more or less about this lord." Carter hurriedly explained to the emperor.

"Really? Let me ask you, is Salaman really something you can kill yourself?" the emperor asked calmly.

Carter was suddenly shocked. Although the emperor asked him to kill Salaman, he had obviously violated the taboo by colluding with humans to kill Salaman. If the emperor pursued this matter and even compared it with this matter, he was shocked. If you combine the three incidents, even ten lives of your own will not be enough to compensate.Frightened, cold sweat flowed from his forehead.

Horqin saw the fear in Cartwright's heart, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I sent someone to look at Salaman's body, there are obvious traces of human swordsmanship, it is indeed a very good swordsmanship, human swordsmanship is as good as this It is a pity that because of the natural segregation of the race, we orcs cannot learn. When talking about this incident, it is more of a regret.

Seeing that the emperor had no intention of disposing of him, Cartwright felt ruthless, thinking that since the emperor already knew, it would be better to take a gamble, and then Cartwright took the initiative to contact Cecil to eliminate Salamantasa He dragged out the full matter and the plate to the emperor, and finally said: "The matter of joining forces with humans is what I say alone, and it has nothing to do with Raditz and the others. If His Majesty wants to punish, please punish me alone."

Horqin said with a smile: "Cartlade, your advantage is that you are smart, but your disadvantage is that you are too smart. You clearly guessed that I will not punish you, so why do you still pretend to plead for others and pretend to shoulder the responsibility? I I hope you won’t play such clever tricks in front of me, and I will use yours again in the future.”

Carter was shocked after hearing this. He thought that he was still far behind the emperor. It was indeed his fault to play such a trick in front of the emperor. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, His Majesty, for your appreciation. Yes." Carter Ryder is wrong.”

The emperor ignored his words: "What kind of person do you think Cecil Augustine is?"

"A remarkable young man, his strength is really unimaginable. His realm is not very high, but he can defeat any holy-rank strong man without his ability. Secondly, and more importantly, he has the ability to gather people together, and the people around him will unconsciously unite with him, wanting to work for him, just like you, the emperor." Ben said this It was a rebellious thing, but Cartwright obviously felt the emperor's temper, so he did the opposite and compared him to a baron.

"Oh?" The emperor was not angry as expected, and showed a strong interest in this Cecil, "I really want to meet this young human lord when I have time, the person who can make me suffer so much must not be a simple person .”

Of course, it was not Cecil who made the emperor suffer the most this time, but the ultimate hydra. After this battle, the emperor deeply felt that the world is full of wonders, and a swamp hydra is like this Powerful, then what kind of existence are those powerful creatures in the depths of the Great Border?What kind of existence will the legendary beast be?I thought I was strong, but now it seems that it is far from enough.
