The daily life of a poor husband [Interstellar]

How long has he been waiting for this day?

Augustus' eyes were firmly locked on Edward's face. The close distance and extraordinary eyesight allowed him to see every micro-expression of the other party, and never missed every detail.

He looked at that already pale face, which became three points paler after he finished speaking, and even lost the last bit of blood. The astonishment and disbelief in his eyes were so profound, and his mood couldn't help but improve.

When he knows that the person he wants to deal with will deploy secretly, dig a trap, and wait for him to walk in, why does Edward think that he will not make two-handed preparations?

What he wanted was never just Edward Butterfield's life-how could that be enough?

Whether it's his life, his throne, or the entire empire, from the day his daughter left, the beast hidden in his heart has been clamoring day and night to come out and tear everything to pieces.

Taking Edward's life like this would be too cheap for him.

How could he be so merciful and let him leave so easily.

Everything he cherishes and cares about will be destroyed by him.

He wants to watch the other party sink into the quagmire of despair, fall into the abyss of darkness, and never see the light.

And for these, it is not enough to place spies/spies beside the other party. What can really hurt a person is the betrayal of someone who has never known that it is insignificant, but the betrayal of someone who has always been on the tip of his heart.

Although he couldn't control the woman who had taken his daughter's place, it would be interesting to borrow a gift from the other party to present Edward with a final gift.

That woman never would have imagined until she died that the cup of dessert she stewed for her husband would be a poison/drug that would speed up her husband's journey to hell.

The goddess of victory, from the beginning to the end, is on my side, and only myself can get the goddess' smile.

Augustus watched the collapse of the former high-spirited king with leisure.

That pair of eyes, which Winnie hailed as the morning star in the night, seemed to be covered with a layer of black veil, and they could no longer see the slightest ray of light.

Augustus looked around. Edward had arranged a lot of people in the palace in advance, so that they would jump out to meet the enemy when he led someone in. There is a shortage of manpower, and now, as far as the eye can see, this is a confrontation without suspense.

He clicked on the computer to view the real-time report sent by the adjutant.

Under the deliberate release of water on the eastern border, it is not difficult for the federal army to drive straight in. It's just that it needs to cover up people's eyes and ears at the beginning, so as not to be exposed, but after stepping on the land of God Star, there is no need for the federal army to hide. , can show its fangs without any scruples, and catch prey.

The Emperor Star is the most important thing in the empire. Once the Emperor Star falls and the border is suppressed by the Federation, the Federation wants to get the Empire, no less than a bag.

For many years, the shackles that have been straddling my heart have finally loosened a bit.

Just two more hours.

Augustus glanced at the time, he only needed to wait another two hours, and everything would be over.

The long-cherished wish was fulfilled, and Augustus looked down at Edward again, only to feel that most of the lingering depression in his heart dissipated.

He leaned down and looked at the loser whose five senses were gradually lost due to the spread of the toxin, lost his mobility, and his mental power was also swallowed up. He spat out a snake letter with malicious intentions, "Your Majesty, watch your empire fall with your own eyes."

"Almost forgot, your eyes should be gone already?" Augustus carefully observed the other party's reaction, not missing the gloom that flashed across the other party's face, and the indescribable joy arose spontaneously. Without sincerity, he comforted his defeated generals. "But it doesn't matter, Your Majesty can wait until the next day, and then apologize to your people."

The situation here has begun to be noticed by the people around, and the morale of the people on my side has been greatly boosted, and the guards belonging to Edward, seeing the defeat of the emperor of the empire to which they are loyal, the psychological gap and the The shock doesn't need to be mentioned in detail.If it is said that the soldiers on their own side are more and more courageous as they fight, then the guards are left with a lonely courage, and with the determination to die, they will also lead their opponents to the underworld.

The increasingly fierce fighting around has made the already crumbling central area even more precarious.

Augustus didn't want Edward to die before the dust settled.He glanced up and found a relatively safe open space, so he decided to take Edward there first, to ensure that the poor emperor, who was unable to move at this time, would not be affected by the aftermath of the confrontation of the people around him and lose his little one. Life.

He stretched out his hand, and his fingertips touched Edward's uniform jacket, which was close at hand.

The hard metal fittings cut through the fingertips, and bright red blood beads rolled down from the slender wound. The slight tingling pain was transmitted from the fingertips through the arms to the brain, and the unexpected miss made Augustus' eyes His face sank, and he looked in a certain direction, where there was his escaped prey.

The figure that should not appear here made Augustus lose his mind for a short moment, but that was all.

Augustus looked at the familiar figure, "Why are you here?"

The person who came did not answer his question, but first checked the emperor, who was in a bad state visible to the naked eye, frowned, took out an emerald green potion from nowhere, and poured it down for Edward.

Edward's five senses were about to lose his perception of the surrounding environment due to toxins, but he was keenly aware of the remaining sense of hearing, and other people had intervened.

Someone who shouldn't have been in Augustus' plans.

The unknown potion that was on his lips was poured rudely, and he lost his vision. Edward, who didn't know who it was, laughed silently in his heart. Anyway, it couldn't be worse than it is now.So, he cooperatively swallowed the medicine in his mouth, and then found that this unknown medicine, which he had never been in contact with before, had a little bit of sweetness in the coolness, unexpectedly it felt good?

Putting the emperor who drank the antidote aside, the person who leaned over slowly straightened up. The tall figure stood against the light, and half of his face was hidden in the darkness.

The other party was backlit, and stimulated by the strong light that was constantly flashing around, Augustus should have been unable to see the other party's appearance clearly, but that face was deeply reflected in his eyes.

"Isn't it good to stay on Frontier Star? Why do you have to come back?"

Augustus even let out a sigh, which was both a blame and a disappointment.

He gave him a chance to choose, as long as the other party is obedient and acts according to his own wishes, it will be a happy ending.Why, do you have to come back to this muddy water?

Even though he heard the blame and disappointment in Augustus' words, Simon still sneered disapprovingly, "If you don't come back, will you wait for your home to be blown up?"

Augustus shook his head when he heard the words, and looked at him with disapproval, like an elder sighing at a mischievous junior.

He looked at the child who he had watched grow up with his own eyes, and he was not angry, but said persuasively, "When the matter is over, everything will be overthrown and start over. You don't have to worry about what you will lose."

Simon glanced at him, thinking of something, as if confirming to him, "Overthrow it and start over?"

Seeing that his words still had an effect, the smile on Augustus’s face couldn’t help but become more kind. He nodded slightly and assured the other party, “Yes, the current empire is too corrupt, for a brighter future , some sacrifices were necessary."

Ah.

Well a necessary sacrifice.

Simon took a deep look at the old man standing in front of him, whom he had respected.

After knowing what the other party has done secretly, he no longer looks at the other party with the eyes of the past. If it is said that before knowing the true face of Augustus, the other party's average score in his heart is 72, then after checking After what the other party did, the positive number plummeted to negative, and the sentence just now plummeted from negative one hundred to negative one thousand.

Different road non-phase plan.

Simon only felt that listening to the nonsense of the other party was a waste of life. Looking at Augustus' "I did the right thing" posture, he thought of the figure he had seen in the underground laboratory of X-11 , Looking at the opponent's high-level posture where all the chess pieces are in his stratagem, I feel a little ironic for no reason, so I wasted two seconds of my life, "You know, what do you call the necessary sacrifices? "

Augustus' answer was quick and firm. "certainly."

Simon was not surprised by this.

He rushed back to Emperor Star, not to discuss such a worthless proposition with the other party.

Noticing that Simon's expression had changed from casual to... normal, Augustus' eyes immediately became serious, and he knew that this short conversation was over.

It was not clear who made the first move, but within a few short days, the two had already fought from inside the hall to outside the hall.

The confrontation between Simon and Augustus was more unscrupulous than that between Edward and the latter.

The tall and mighty mammoth roared and ran over. Wherever it passed, the originally smooth and clean floor tiles were crushed and discarded like paper shells. It raised a pair of front hooves and stomped hard on the target.

The terrifying Taipan Snake rose up from the ground, and the appearance of the tall snake body almost absorbed most of the light in this space, and the brightness of the entire area was reduced by [-] points.The long and powerful snake tail yanked towards the giant hoof of the mammoth.

And not far from the two Quantum Beasts, the two figures were fighting inextricably, and the place they passed was like a typhoon passing through, leaving no good ground.
