Chapter 751: The Empire Surrenders
Minister Ernest, who was betrayed by his subordinates and his son, finally gave up the idea of escaping in despair.
The only thing he wanted to do now was to bite a certain rebellious son to death before he was tried and executed.
When the First Emperor of the Empire saw that the treacherous ministers had been caught, he lost the idea of continuing to take action. The important thing now was to stabilize the situation and then clean up the current mess.
Through the loudspeaker facilities inside the Supreme Throne, the First Emperor of the Empire extended an invitation to Xiao Zhen.
"Sir, thank you very much for saving my life. If you are interested, I can promise you the position of the national teacher and share this prosperous country with you."
The first emperor of the empire had a face full of pride and confidence. Only sitting on the supreme throne could bring him absolute peace of mind.
If they were outside, he wouldn't dare talk to Xiao Zhen like this.
Esdeath joked, "Master, the conditions offered by His Majesty the First Emperor are really favorable. You know, since the founding of the empire, no one has been able to share the world with the emperor!"
Xiao Zhen laughed disdainfully and said, "Do you think I would be interested in this? It really isn't tempting at all."
Esdeath smiled and said, "I would really like to compete with the First Emperor who drives the High Throne, but the chances of winning are not great."
Although her move could freeze the surrounding space, the Supreme Throne's defense was amazing, which really restrained her.
Kuang San also said in a delicate voice: "My dear, this is your fault. Esdeath's mission is to overthrow the empire, but you found a strong opponent for her!"
The First Emperor, who was sitting in the driver's seat, could not hear the conversation between Xiao Zhen and the others, so he asked again, "What do you think of my proposal?"
Everyone present looked at Xiao Zhen. If he made this choice, the war would probably not be able to continue.
Who has the guts to rebel against the First Emperor, a legendary figure? Even Najeshitan feels that perhaps the empire can really be reborn, but what should she and her subordinates do then?
The legendary tyrannical Emperor Qin Shi Huang might not let these rebellious people go.
Xiao Zhen's figure rose directly into the air and soon reached the same height as the head of the Supreme Throne.
"What can I say? Your solicitation has no appeal to me. Besides, how can a dead man be on an equal footing with me? Who gave you the courage? Could it be this bulky iron shell?"
These words were heard by everyone and immediately caused a stir.
"This guy is so arrogant that he dares to speak to the First Emperor like this!"
"He has the ability to resurrect the dead, so he might be very powerful. Didn't you see that woman Esdeath was standing behind him?"
"So what? His Majesty the First Emperor is the strongest. All rebels will eventually submit to the might of the empire again!"
……
Although he clearly felt a lot of angry glances, Xiao Zhen didn't care what those imperial soldiers thought.
The Emperor's tone became stern, and he asked for the last time: "If you insist on going your own way and stand against the Empire, I will not show mercy."
"Hahaha!"
Xiao Zhen laughed unceremoniously and said, "Your life is only sustained by one of my treasures. If that's the case, then I'll give you a choice.
As long as you can hold out against my attack for one minute, you will win, and I will not interfere in the affairs of the empire, and the treasure will belong to you forever."
The first emperor of the empire was shocked when he heard this. He didn't know that he was resurrected from a stone, and he thought that the treasure was on Xiao Zhen.
If the other party cancels the connection between me and the treasure, will I have to leave this beautiful world again?
No! This is absolutely not possible. I must get that treasure.
"I agree to your bet, sir, but I hope you can keep your promise!"
"No need to say more, because I will definitely be the winner, so now... let's get started!"
The First Emperor of the Empire felt a dry mouth. This was a matter of life and death, as well as the survival of the entire empire.
The Supreme Throne stretched out a pair of huge iron hands first, and watched Xiao Zhen being caught in the air without any resistance.
The imperial members watching the battle below all breathed a sigh of relief. With a pair of hands that big, even the legendary super-dangerous species would probably not be able to break free.
Esdeath laughed disdainfully and shouted, "Foolish weaklings, you are lucky to see a truly powerful person take action today. Open your eyes, because what happens next will be enough for you to never forget!"
A powerful energy exploded in the air, the High Throne's hands exploded, and his body began to tremble unsteadily.
The First Emperor of the Empire looked at the unharmed figure and could hardly believe his eyes.
"What kind of monster is this?"
Xiao Zhen lightly pointed with one finger, and the energy from the condensed layer of Dou Qi hit the important joints of the Supreme Throne.
The mighty and majestic huge mecha was dismantled bit by bit like a shoddy building.
Xiao Zhen pulled the first emperor out of the cab and threw him in front of his people.
"A total of 36 seconds have passed. You lost completely!"
The First Emperor wanted to say something, but Xiao Zhen simply waved his hand and the rat talisman flew out of the First Emperor's body.
Feeling his body becoming increasingly stiff, the First Emperor watched his loose legs turn into stone. He stretched out his left hand towards Xiao Zhen and shouted in panic, "No! I don't want to...ah!"
The lifelike stone sculpture stood in front of everyone. If they had not seen this magical scene with their own eyes, who would have thought that this was the Emperor Qin Shi Huang who was so high-spirited just now.
The little emperor cried, "My ancestor, why couldn't he save the empire? Am I really going to be the king of a ruined country?"
Xiao Zhen looked at Esdeath who had been enjoying the show for a long time and reminded her, "It's your turn to perform now."
The Ice Queen smiled cruelly and pointed her sword at the enemies.
"If you give up resisting now, maybe I will consider sparing your lives."
Rather than persuading the enemy to surrender, Esdeath actually wanted to kill them indiscriminately. She loved watching her defeated opponents being ravaged the most.
However, due to the presence of Xiao Zhen, she decided to be more civilized. Besides, if she killed too many people, who would help her manage the country in the future?
Many people had long lost their will to fight and laid down their weapons.
Bud knew the situation was hopeless, so he walked to Esdeath unwillingly, knelt down suddenly, and said through gritted teeth: "The Empire is willing to surrender, but... I have one condition."
Looking at the strongest man in the empire, whom she had to look up to in the past, now kneeling in front of her, Esdeath inexplicably felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart.
The military shoes stepped on Bud's head, and Esdeath laughed sarcastically: "Tell me, maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll agree?"
Bud lowered his head a little more, and said with all his might, "Please spare His Majesty's life. He is just a child. I believe that with your strength, you should not be afraid of a young king who has lost his country."
After taking a look at the little emperor in the crowd, Esdeath really didn't have much intention of killing him.
Even if the little emperor really raised the banner of the previous dynasty to rebel, it would seem more interesting.
That way, she could enjoy the thrill of killing one more time.
"Well, we were once kings and subjects, so I will let the young emperor go. But as a price, Bud, you must serve my new empire in the future!"
Bud felt sad. He actually wanted to take the little emperor to a farther place to live a stable life.
But if you don't agree to Esdeath now, Your Majesty might be wiped out.
Finally, Bud agreed.
Esdeath was so happy that she directly gave the little emperor a noble status and his fiefdom was in a relatively remote place.
She wanted to see whether this little emperor, who had been raised as a puppet by Ernest for several years, had the courage to rebel against her new empire.
The empire has surrendered, and everyone on the field is looking at the revolutionary army. As the third party in this war, what choice will they make?
A revolutionary army leader who looked very smart stood up and said in a flattering tone:
“Everyone, our goal is to overthrow the empire. Now that Lady Esdeath has accomplished this great feat, there is no point in continuing the revolution.
The next step should be to build a new home, and the new empire needs a strong leader. I have decided to pledge my loyalty to General Esdeath on behalf of the Revolutionary Army. Do any of you brothers have any objections?"
Leone quietly approached Najeshitan and whispered, "Boss, who is this guy?"
Although Night Raid was also considered a part of the Revolutionary Army, Leone rarely visited the Revolutionary Army's headquarters and mainly operated around the Imperial Capital.
And ever since the Revolutionary Army and the Empire joined forces, she has become even more lazy to find out who the top leaders of the Revolutionary Army are?
Najeshitan noticed that Leone was not the only one curious, so she said, "His name is Ricker. He was originally a grain merchant, but later he was pulled into the revolutionary army. He is more or less a mid-level cadre."
The remaining bigwigs of the Revolutionary Army all gave up resistance with a wry smile. Some of them even looked at the guy who was a businessman with anger. What a good opportunity to please Esdeath, but this guy snatched it away.
