Chapter 298 Before the War
"Oh, is this the palace that the general said was stolen by thieves?"
"This feeling is just like a monster's lair."
"To be honest, I'm a little excited."
Standing outside the palace, looking at the scene inside the palace from afar, Esdeath's wildness was immediately aroused.
Esdeath was born in the northern border area. She is the daughter of the chief of the Baruts tribe, a race that specializes in hunting dangerous species.
In this life of hostility with nature, she has developed the idea of the survival of the fittest since she was a child.
That is why she is full of wildness.
At the same time, she also has the keen perception of a beast.
Just standing in front of the palace, she felt the dangerous atmosphere coming from the palace.
It was a territory that seemed like a monster's lair.
But such a crisis did not scare her, but made her excited.
Esdeath's favorite sport is hunting dangerous species.
"Can you feel it?"
Hearing Esdeath's mumbling, the expression of General Budd beside him quickly became solemn.
In his opinion, the opponent should be a master of illusion.
Facing such an enemy, even he would find it difficult to deal with it, unless he used the "Thunder Emperor Summoning" to cover the entire palace under the attack of the imperial artifact.
But such an attack would make the empire lose its dignity.
And it is very likely to cause the death of the little emperor.
This is unacceptable to General Bud.
So even if General Bud noticed Micah's acting, he still did not expose it.
After all, he could see through it, but it does not mean that others can see through it.
If the plan is not careful enough, the opponent who has already controlled the civil and military groups is very likely to make a fake and then eliminate him.
This is not impossible, because in the opponent's hands, there is also the imperial artifact "Gem Headdress" Yin Leiston that he took back from the minister.
This imperial artifact has the effect of destroying other imperial artifacts.
So he must think twice before acting.
But Esdeath's sudden return disrupted his plan.
General Bud knew very well the true face of General Esdeath.
Unlike other officials, Esdeath has no interest in politics or power.
This sadistic woman expects to trample on her enemies.
She expects endless battles.
Once she can fulfill the other party's expectations, she will be loyal to him no matter who he is.
Just like the former minister Ernest.
Even though the former minister Ernest has such a bad character, as long as Esdeath's expectations are met, Esdeath becomes Ernest's most steadfast ally.
And such a character is also easy to grasp for the fake emperor today.
After all, the empire at this time is not short of battles.
And once the other party grasps the trump card of Esdeath, he will never have the opportunity to save the emperor and drive the thief off the throne.
Fortunately, the other party did not find out his identity problem.
He actually gave him the opportunity to contact Esdeath privately.
Turning his head to look at the excited woman beside him, General Bud said secretly in his heart: "This trump card is not only for you to use."
"As long as I can meet Esdeath's expectations, she can become my ally. As a general, I am much stronger than those thieves in terms of persuasiveness."
General Bud is full of confidence in his own and Esdeath's strength.
If the two of them attack at the same time, there is no need to fear the effect of the 'Gem Headdress' Yin Leiston.
According to the records handed down from the era of General Bud's family, the imperial weapon 'Gem Headdress' Yin Leiston destroys the opponent's imperial weapon by destroying its own gem within a certain range.
The destroyed gem will return to its original state after a week of self-repair.
In other words, this imperial weapon that destroys the imperial weapon can only destroy one imperial weapon at a time.
And there is a one-week cooling time.
If General Bud acts alone, he will have no ability to resist if the imperial weapon is destroyed.
After all, no matter how strong he is, he can't fight against the gathered imperial weapon users of the other side.
But if he and Esdeath attack together, the other side can only destroy one imperial weapon, and the other strongest in the empire will successfully harvest the enemy.
As the strongest in the empire, they are confident that they can defeat multiple imperial weapon users at the same time.
In addition, unlike other imperial weapons, Esdeath's imperial weapon "Demon God Appearance" Demon Essence is not a physical weapon.
Its body is the blood of the legendary super dangerous species living in the Far North.
And as long as you drink a sip, you can gain the ability to freely manipulate and make ice.
But throughout the history of the empire, except for Esdeath, everyone else was driven crazy by the desire to kill as long as they tasted a little.
Only Esdeath was not driven crazy by this desire, but conquered the other side.
Moreover, what she drank was not just a sip, but a full tank, all of it!
Therefore, she gained the ability of the strongest imperial weapon.
In a sense, Esdeath is not an imperial weapon user, but a dangerous humanoid standing there alive.
Regarding Esdeath's situation, General Budd does not think that the "jeweled headdress" Yin Leiston can destroy the dangerous blood in Esdeath's body.
It is just the blood of the dangerous species named "imperial weapon".
Therefore, if everything goes well, Esdeath can lead the charge, while he summons thunderclouds to release lightning in the back.
This one-on-one battle method can ensure that his imperial equipment is not destroyed.
Although if the emperor can be rescued, it doesn't matter even if his imperial equipment is broken.
But if the emperor can be rescued without the destruction of the "Thunder God Summoning" Admiral, it will undoubtedly be a better result.
Feeling the sight coming from the side, Esdeath turned his head and asked curiously: "General, do you have anything to say when you look at me like this?"
"Nothing, just confirming our mutual promise."
"Please rest assured! I will not regret what I promised!"
Esdeath said firmly.
Then she turned her head and looked at the interior of the palace in the distance again.
"Besides, I'm suddenly interested in the thief in the palace."
"It's so interesting that Minister Ernest can be defeated so easily!"
"I'm suddenly impatient!"
After saying that, Esdeath licked his lips, as if waiting for the next delicacy.
"General Bud, General Esdeath, His Majesty has been waiting for you two for a long time."
The eunuch who walked out of the palace quickly stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Then let's go!"
General Bud immediately walked forward.
Esdeath followed closely behind.
And behind him, there were the three beast warriors who were Esdeath's confidants.
With heavy steps, these generals who planned to overthrow the thieves walked into the palace that was about to become a battlefield.
