I went down with a sword and chopped your mecha

Imperial Palace.

Turning a corner and coming to the main entrance of the palace, Charles raised his head and took a breath to try to look inside the palace. He squeezed the sealed letter in his hand nervously, adjusted his appearance before walking steadily forward.

The guards on both sides of the front of the hall also saw Charles walking this way, and gave a military salute with their right hands. The two standing at the front put down their hands and asked with a smile: "Mr. Charles, do you have something to see His Majesty the Emperor?" ?"

"Well, I'm sorry to bother you to report." Smiling and nodding, he said to a guard. His decent words and deeds are unimaginable. Just a moment ago, he was a little uneasy.

"No trouble." The guard waved his hands repeatedly and handed over the weapon in his hand to his companion for temporary custody, and then quickly stepped into the hall to report. Charles took a step back and approached the stone pillar next to the door of the hall, and his eyes fell on the letter in his hand again.

The guard who went in quickly came out. He leaned aside to leave a wider road for Charles and said, "Mr. Charles, you can go in. His Majesty is working in the study now."

"Thank you." With a slight nod, Charles walked in, walked around the wide space of the main hall, and came to a room at the side door. After obtaining the consent of the people inside, Charles pushed the door open and entered.

This study built next to the main hall is only for the emperor to use temporarily, and the space is not comparable to the emperor's special study. At this moment, the current emperor of the empire, Baldwin Brant, is sitting behind the desk and concentrating on handling official duties. Even Charles walked in. He didn't even get some concentration, the tip of the pen kept scribing across the paper, and the emperor took the time to ask a question.

"Shouldn't this time be with Ralph? Why did you come back so early?"

Charles was silent for a while without speaking, the emperor looked up at his loyal butler strangely, and stopped reviewing the documents in his hand.

"Why don't you speak?"

"Your Majesty, this is the letter I just received...you should read it first."

Stepping forward, he bent down and respectfully presented the letter that he had been holding in his hand, and Charles returned to his original position, half-hanging his head.

The emperor received the unopened letter from the butler, and was a little confused by Charles' behavior. Normally, Charles would not be so hesitant when reporting affairs, and he, an old butler, could have such a reaction...

The emperor's eyes fell on the letter in his hand, unless it was something important.

After quickly removing the beeswax on the outside, the emperor unfolded the paper and began to read it bit by bit. However, as his eyes moved down, the emperor's complexion became worse and worse. After reading the last line, Baldwin couldn't help but patted the letter paper on the desk. superior!

"Bastard!" The emperor's furious voice echoed in the small study room. Charles lowered his half-drowned head more and more, and clenched his fists in anger. The good-quality letter paper was torn due to too much force, and the emperor turned blue. There was a hint of sadness on his face, and he finally calmed down and returned to a deadpan expression. The emperor threw the letter aside and looked up at the motionless Charles.

"When did the letter arrive?"

"Return to Your Majesty, this was rushed over last night."

"It took almost two days for such a big event to pass the news, what a waste!"

"This...Your Majesty, it seems that because of the frequent accidents recently, the Federation has urgently blocked the electronic communication channels, and can only send messages through letters."

Ever since the arsenal was attacked, just in case, the federation decided to urgently block the external communication channels. The signal transmission between the federation and the empire has been interrupted, and the people can only communicate through letters.

The emperor looked at the crumpled letter coldly again, as if to divert his attention, he began to review the documents again, and he did not forget to continue to ask Charles about other matters.

"How is the progress of Ralph's research?"

"Other studies have not made any progress, but Dr. Ralph said that there have been some breakthroughs in the research of biochemical humans, and now the success rate of biochemical humans has increased a lot."

"Hmph!" The emperor snorted coldly, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Sacrificing so many excellent soldiers of mine, if you can't make some achievements, there is no need to support his research."

"How is the development of new weapons?"

"Thirty new warships have been produced, two thousand mechs have been urgently produced, and other armaments are basically completed, and they will probably be put into use tomorrow."

Baldwin's hands froze, his brows furrowed even tighter.

"How much is the energy mine consumed?"

"Nearly half."

"Tsk." Throwing down the pen in his hand, the emperor pressed his forehead and temples with some headaches, and the dissatisfaction in his voice was already evident.

"Not to mention the loss of the Victor, it took so long to make such a small thing, and it actually consumed so much energy ore. What are those guys doing to eat?"

Charles didn't answer the call again, leaving aside the two incidents of the Victor being robbed and the energy mine being lost, the people in the R&D department had already done a very good job.It took only half a year to develop a new type of warship and mecha, not to mention that after the energy mine is lost, there are not many left, and it is normal to consume it quickly.

His Majesty the Emperor was just too impatient, and he was so harsh after hearing bad news.

After asking a few words, the emperor did not speak again. Instead, he sat behind the desk and meditated on something. Charles stood aside without saying a word. After about 5 minutes, the emperor finally stood up and looked sideways. Look at the time on the wall.

"Okay, Charles, go down first, and let me know if you have any new progress. By the way, let those guys get ready. The time is almost here, and we can't continue to drag on."

"Yes." Charles bowed to His Majesty, who had his back turned to him, before stepping back and leaving the study, closing the door lightly, and Charles exhaled silently.

It seems that the day when the war officially begins is not far away.

After the housekeeper Charles left, only the emperor was left in the study room. Baldwin walked back and forth in the room a few times, his eyes falling on the tattered letter from time to time, and his already relaxed hands clenched unconsciously. Fist.

Hebrew...Lyan...my son...

"whispering sound!"

Leaning off the strength on his body, he leaned back against the wall a little decadently, his eyes closed at some point, and Baldwin didn't know what to think for a moment.

Ansair...Gu Lin...

"Heh." Unable to lower his head, Baldwin let out a short laugh.

My dear brother, you really have a good son.

Leaning against the wall to rectify the chaotic emotions in his heart, the emperor of the empire returned to his normal appearance again, and he could no longer see the slightest weakness and negative emotions. He glanced at the clock on the wall, sorted out the documents on the desk, and stepped out. This study.

At this time, Lilith should be practicing the piano.

Without asking anyone to follow, the emperor walked to a palace on the west side of the palace. The decoration of this palace is different from other places. It is surrounded by a circle of beautiful flowers, and all kinds of bright colors are everywhere. Appeared in front of the eyes, although it has entered the night, the interior of the palace is still brightly lit, guards and servants come and go.

Baldwin waved his hand to signal the saluting servants to step back, and came alone to a room full of young girls' romance. Hearing the voices of girls talking in the room, the emperor squinted his eyes, raised his hand and knocked on the door while raising his hand. sound.

"Lilith, can the emperor go in?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an exclamation in the room, followed by the sound of rummaging through boxes and boxes. It took about half a minute before someone finally opened the door.

The emperor glanced at the maid who opened the door. Anna cautiously lowered her head to avoid the emperor's gaze, quickly moved her body away to allow the emperor to walk in, then closed the door and stood obediently aside.

As soon as Baldwin entered the room, he saw Lilith sitting on the bench in a long skirt, her hands seemed to be playing the piano seriously, but her bright eyes were secretly looking at the emperor, and she kept emphasizing.

"Look, uncle! I have practiced the piano well! I am not lazy!"

Ouch, my lord, you are not playing tricks on yourself.

Anna, who was standing by the side, raised her hands to cover her face when she heard the words, she couldn't bear to expose Her Royal Highness's clumsy lies.

The emperor walked up to Lilith helplessly, looked at her hands that were out of rhythm and shook his head.

"Alright, Lilith, Uncle Huang knows you're being lazy."

Lilith stuck out her tongue mischievously, jumped up decisively, grabbed the emperor's arm and shook it vigorously, looked at him without blinking and begged for mercy with her nimble blue eyes: "Uncle emperor, I know I was wrong, I must practice hard next time." Qin isn't lazy anymore."

"The emperor doesn't believe what you girl said. When you can play a complete piece of music, come and promise to the emperor." The emperor smiled and touched the top of Lilith's head, looking at the girl who was standing upright The maid said indifferently: "Anna, you should also pay more attention to Lilith. Don't let her be lazy. As a princess of the empire, there is still a lot to learn."

"Yes! Yes! Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely take good care of Her Royal Highness!"

Anna, who was still giggling, suddenly became nervous, and repeatedly promised to make a guarantee to the emperor, and at the same time apologized to Lilith very guilty in her heart.

Your Highness, I'm really sorry, but His Majesty the Emperor has said so, and I won't be able to help you be lazy in the future.

Lilith curled her lips unhappily, pulled the emperor to sit on the soft sofa as if trying to divert her attention, and asked him curiously: "Why did the emperor come to see Lilith today? Don't you usually not Are you here?"

After saying this, Lilith suddenly felt a little wronged. Her parents and elder brother had already... She only had the emperor uncle as a relative, but the emperor didn't visit her often and didn't care about her!

The emperor patted Lilith's forehead amusedly, looked at her swollen face and explained: "Lilith is already an adult, how can the emperor keep going in and out of your room, don't you think so?"

"Hmm... well, then I will forgive Uncle Huang! By the way, Uncle Huang, you haven't answered my other question yet!"

"Isn't it okay for the emperor to come and see you? What's more, the emperor actually has something to tell you when he comes today."

"What's the matter?!" Lilith opened her eyes excitedly and asked curiously.

"Before I knew it, Lilith was already an adult, and it was time to get married. Uncle Huang came here today to ask Lilith if there is anyone she likes. If there is, Uncle Huang will hold it for you directly An engagement banquet, if Lilith doesn't have someone she likes, Uncle Huang knows a lot of young talents ------"

"I don't want to marry!"

"..."

The smile on Baldwin's face disappeared for a moment, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he recovered his smiling face without a trace, lowering his head and patiently asking Lilith, who looked unhappy.

"What's the matter? Does Lilith really not plan to get married?"

"..."

"Come on, tell Uncle Huang, why don't you want to marry?"

"..."

"How can a girl not get married? What's more, Lilith is so beautiful that she will definitely find a groom she likes." The smile on Baldwin's face faded slightly, and he slowed down his tone and asked again: "Is there anything What nonsense did people talk to Lilith? Anna..."

"It's because I don't want to marry myself..."

"The reason?"

"I told you before... I have only one family left... I don't want to leave here."

Lilith's voice was a little choked, and tears rolled out of her blue eyes. Birdwin watched her quietly for a while before wiping her tears with a tissue, and his voice gently comforted her.

"Silly boy, isn't the emperor's uncle always in the palace? Even if Lilith gets married in the future, she can still come back to see the emperor's uncle. Besides, didn't the emperor say before that Lilith can live in the palace with your husband, What's more, after getting married, Lilith's husband will be your relatives, and you will have your own children in the future, and they will all be your relatives."

"So, how can Lilith have the idea of ​​not getting married?"

"..."

"Be happy, Lilith is so good..."

"If it's the queen mother...they will definitely not force me to marry."

"..."

Lilith didn't notice Baldwin's expressionless face at all. She just sobbed slightly and looked at the photo on the table, and the emperor's eyes also fell on that photo. A very well-matched couple Embracing his sons and daughters, happiness is evident on them, and the emperor's expressionless face is even more emotionless and cold at this moment.After being silent for a while, the emperor sighed softly, touched the top of Lilith's head again, and spoke with a bit of sentimentality.

"I originally wanted to make you happy, but I didn't expect to make you cry. Uncle Huang also really wants you to be happy... Unfortunately... In your heart, Uncle Huang will probably never compare to your real relatives."

"Uncle, I didn't say that..."

Lilith was so startled that she forgot to shed tears, looked up at the emperor in panic and said hastily.

Shaking his head in frustration, the emperor stood up with a smile and looked at Lilith, then turned around and told Anna who lowered her head, "Take good care of Your Highness, and remind her to rest early."

Afterwards, Lilith, who was calling him behind her, went straight out of the room, and Lilith, who was ignored, sat back on the sofa sadly.

"Anna...why is the emperor so indifferent to me?"

Anna sighed and hugged Lilith, and said softly: "Your Highness probably made His Majesty sad by saying that just now."

Lilith buried her head deeply in Anna's arms, her tearful face was stained with some doubts.Really...was she doing something wrong?

The emperor who walked out of the room was unaware of this. In fact, after he walked out of Lilith's palace, his disguised gentle expression had completely disappeared. He returned to the emperor's bedroom with anger in his heart, and Baldwin walked quickly to the side of the desk I don't know where I reached out and touched it. A metal door suddenly appeared on the wall next to it. When Baldwin walked over, the metal door just opened automatically.

This is probably a secret room, but its space is really not that big. There is a wooden table in the only space, so there is basically not much room to move around.

Baldwin stepped up and came to the inside of the wooden table. The drawer under the table was completely different from ordinary drawers. There was no gap on its surface, only a screen full of chaotic characters on the side of the drawer. After pressing it a few times, the drawer popped out automatically.

There was only one layer of neatly arranged paper in the drawer, and a small box was placed on top of the paper. Baldwin stared at these things intently, and the evil fire in his heart gradually weakened.

He took a deep breath and sat down on the table, took out the small box from the drawer and played with it in his hand, a smile gradually appeared on his face, and the arc of the corner of his mouth became wider and wider, and finally he laughed crazily stand up!

Hate, pleasure, jealousy, too many complex emotions appeared in his eyes, mixed with his somewhat crazy smile, it made people feel a little shuddering...

He seemed to have fallen into a special mood, talking to himself, his voice was almost inaudible but still carried a shocking hatred.

"Hahahahaha, no matter how strong you are! These are the proofs that you lost to me... Haha... Kelvin..."

His crazy behavior stopped suddenly, and Baldwin couldn't look more like a normal person at this moment.

He put away his smile.

He closed the drawer.

He walked out of the secret room leisurely.

His mocking words stayed in this small space with a smile.

"Kelvin, you're a piece of shit."

And Kelvin Brant was the former emperor of this empire.

He is also the only elder brother of the current emperor, Baldwin Brant.
