Chapter 191 Return

For Duanmuhuai, this trip to the prison riot was just a small warm-up. Although the final result was a bit unexpected, but anyway, it was a perfect ending.

Of course, this matter didn't stop there. According to the results of Petra's investigation, it seems that the awakened person is still the younger brother of their queen, and it is very likely that something happened to become like this. Therefore, Petra is also very anxious, and intends to ask the guardians to investigate... Well, as you can imagine, this is another quest branch.

But now Duanmuhuai has no time to care about this, so at this moment, he has led his own trial court fleet and returned to Novice Planet again.

"Phew, it looks like it's still in time."

Duanmuhuai heaved a sigh of relief seeing the peaceful planet in front of him, then he turned on the screen, looked at the scenery in front of him, and began to look for the target.

The first is the capital of Bretonnia, Carcassonne. Duanmuhuai adjusted the screen and stared at the city of the knight kingdom above. On the quiet street, in front of a small jewelry shop, a girl in ordinary clothes She is sprinkling water, judging by her appearance, she is quite skilled at this job.

Immediately afterwards, Duanmu Huai saw an old man driving a carriage full of goods to the shop door, and greeted the girl, who also waved happily to the old man, then turned and said something to the shop , and then Duanmuhuai saw the elf scouts come out and began to carry the goods with the old man.

"It's still a good time."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Duanmuhuai also raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile. For Duanmuhuai, it has been a while since he traveled to this world after experiencing so many things, but he still will not forget what happened when he just traveled here. The world he lives in is too different, and Duanmuhuai doesn't intend to drag such an ordinary girl into his battle with the evil god. In his opinion, such an ordinary life is more suitable for this girl.

After all, with her status, returning to the empire would only be more embarrassing.

Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai turned the camera again and turned to another location.

Mordheim.

This once cursed city seems to have revived a bit of vitality and vitality now. Duanmuhuai can see that the dilapidated city has begun to be rebuilt, and the streets are more popular. It's just that Duanmu Huai also saw that the security here seemed to be heavily guarded, and the atmosphere was a little tense. Although he didn't know what happened, it was obviously not a good thing.

As for the capital of the empire, Altdorf... huh?

To Duanmuhuai's surprise, he saw not only the empire's flag on Altdorf's side, but also the elves' and Bretonnia's flags... It's really rare to see these forces gather together. Is something wrong?

Well... Anyway, just go and see.

Soon, Duanmu Huai took Auguste to Altdorf King City again.

Although his attire was ridiculous, the guards in charge let him enter the castle and sent someone to notify His Majesty the King—after all, Duanmu Huai was considered the hero who saved Altdorf from the hands of the cultists, and he His features were already obvious, and it was impossible to pretend to be, and the king had given him preferential treatment in this regard. So Duanmuhuai entered the castle without encountering any obstacles.

Not only that, but he also met an acquaintance.

"Oh? Isn't this Your Excellency the Knight? It's been a long time!"

"Who are you……………"

Looking at the man in front of him, Duanmu Huai thought for a moment.

"General Pastor?"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect His Excellency the Knight to still remember me..."

"It's almost invisible, after all, you have changed a lot."

While talking, Duanmuhuai looked curiously at General Pastor in front of him. Of course, he did not forget this general who was in charge of the commander in Mordheim back then, and even planned to add a yellow robe to himself, but he was just as skinny as the general at that time. Unlike other men, General Pastor now has a ruddy complexion and looks much more energetic, even his figure has gained weight—you can even see his protruding belly.

"Hahaha, lack of exercise recently..."

Sensing Duanmuhuai's gaze, General Pastor smiled wryly, and Duanmuhuai naturally didn't care about such trivial matters, so he chatted with General Pastor.

According to General Pastor, he had a pretty good life after that. Although his ability was not very good, he also showed his loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor that night. So after that, General Pastor's position and title were also raised by one level. Of course, General Pastor did not disappoint His Majesty's high expectations, and has been working diligently.

And Duanmuhuai also inquired about what happened in the empire after that. It was basically the same as what the emperor said to himself at the beginning. On that night, the three heirs of the emperor were all disposed of for colluding with the evil gods and colluding with the three princes. The nobles were also implicated, a large number of nobles were dealt with, and newcomers were promoted.

Of course, the emperor's tough approach naturally aroused the unease of the lords everywhere. However, when the emperor proposed the electoral system, these lords were immediately suppressed. The system is not limited to the royal family as before, and even all lords are eligible to become emperors of the empire... Although at their own age, it is very likely that they will have to retire with the old emperor.

But their heirs still have a chance!

As a result, these lords calmed down very quickly, obediently obeying the emperor's instructions, and a domestic political crisis subsided as a result.

"The interior of the empire is still stable at present, all thanks to the blessings of the knights..."

Speaking of this, General Pastor also respectfully expressed his gratitude to Duanmu Huai. Thinking of the fate of the entire Altdorf once those princes who colluded with the evil gods came to power, and even that night if Duanmuhuai and others did not stop him, he couldn't help but gasp. The reason why the entire empire can be so peaceful now is because Because of what Duanmuhuai did, he not only wiped out the believers of the evil god, but also eradicated the vampires on the original territory of the empire... If it weren't for this, what would happen to the current empire? Woolen cloth.

"There is no need to say these kind words."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand, then changed the subject.

"By the way, is there any festival recently? I also saw the flags of Bretonnia and other countries... Could there be some event?"

"Hey? Master Knight, don't you know?"

"Oh, I just came back from another place, so I don't know the situation here."

"Actually, it's not a secret..."

General Pastor didn't care about Duanmuhuai's excuse, and quickly explained the current situation to Duanmuhuai.

After Duanmu Huai left, because the forces colluding with the evil gods were dealt with, and the vampires entrenched in the empire's territory were also eliminated, the entire empire passed a period of stable life. However, the good times didn't last long, and after just over a year, various crises began to appear around.

First of all, the chaotic army in the north gathered and went south to launch an attack. If it were an empire with internal and external troubles, it would have been finished long ago. Fortunately, this time the empire was stable, so it blocked the attack of the Chaos army. However, Kislev, another country located on the northern border of the empire, was not so lucky. Under the attack of the Chaos army, they barely resisted for a while before the panorama collapsed. Finally, with the help of the empire, they led the remnants to evacuate.

Not only that, but at the same time, a civil war broke out in Bretonnia, which was separated from the empire by a mountain. Although the civil war ended in the end, Bretonnia was also seriously injured. Not only that, but in the south of the empire, the Skaven started to riot uncharacteristically, launching attacks on the southern territories.

Even the elves were not spared. It was heard that the dark elves in the north, which were confronting the high elves, were also attacked by the army of chaos. It can be said that this wave is equivalent to the army of chaos going south collectively and starting to attack the border of civilization.

Because of the urgency of the situation, Bretonnia, Kislev, and representatives of the elves came to the empire to discuss the matter of forming a coalition army to fight.

It really started.

Duanmu Huai frowned after listening to General Pastor's words. He did not participate in the Last Hour war at that time, but he also learned from forum players' posts that the beginning of Last Hour is marked by a group of demons dancing wildly. All kinds of monsters and monsters came out to show their presence.

Now it seems that the development of the situation is as stated in the forum post, so it seems that it is the right time for me to come back.

"Sorry to interrupt."

At this moment, a guard ran over panting, looked at Duanmu Huai and bowed respectfully.

"It's Your Excellency the Knight of Salvation, Your Majesty wants to see you, please come with me."

It's an exaggeration to say that.

Hearing the other party's title, Duanmu Huai also complained helplessly in his heart, but he still nodded, and then walked into the castle with Augis under the leadership of the guards, and then came to the king's study.

"Yo, long time no see."

Sitting behind the desk was Kevin—or should he be called Emperor Karl Franz. He put down the quill, looked at Duanmu Huai with a smile, and greeted him.

"Speaking of which, why did the armor on your body become like this?"

"It's cute, I really like it."

"Hahahaha, as expected of you."

Regarding Duanmuhuai's answer, the emperor also laughed and didn't take it seriously—after all, he is a person who uses "Pink Bunny" as the name of the battle group. It is not surprising that he painted his armor in this color.

"Speaking of which, where have you been? I've been sending people to look for you."

"I just got back from an overseas adventure."

"Oh? Is overseas fun?"

"It's not interesting, it's all those boring things."

Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders, and then sat on the stone bench specially brought for him by the emperor's attendants.

"Since you sent someone to look for me, Your Majesty, does that mean there is something wrong?"

"Of course, I think you should have some understanding of the current situation in the empire."

"I've heard a little bit about it. I heard that the Ratmen and the Chaos army are starting to wreak havoc."

"Yes."

Speaking of this topic, the emperor immediately turned serious.

"Actually, according to our investigation, the mutation of the Chaos army this time is likely to be related to one person."

"Oh? Who is it?"

"Eternal God's Chosen —— Archaon."
