Transcendent Ember

Chapter 657
Nicholas Dynasty, a small county in the northern part of Yagorus Province.

In the temporarily renovated administrative building, the atmosphere was unprecedentedly tense, with two groups of people confronting each other clearly.

One group was enshrined by Nicholas VI and the royal family, but most of them were fourth-rank extraordinary (the fifth-rank extraordinary were almost killed by Piedman); the other group was dedicated to Talem, Fang Yun , Howard as the main, Cape, Russell, Deputy Prime Minister and other nobles and officials as supplementary.

As for the soldiers outside, they still don't know about this...

Nicholas VI's face was gloomy, and he looked at the approaching Talem in shock and surprise: "You really deserve to be my good son, to have such courage."

"Father..." Talem shrank his neck instinctively, but the matter had come to this point, he had no way out, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "Admit defeat, you have no chance of winning."

Nicholas VI narrowed his eyes, and quickly glanced at Fang Yun, Howard and the others behind Talem, and the nearly twenty fifth-rank extraordinary behind them...

These fifth-rank extraordinary were recruited from Panderby after the nobles were persuaded and wooed by Howard.

Most of the fifth-rank superfans who accompanied the army in the expedition belonged to the royal family, and the fifth-rank worshipers of the major nobles were basically not dispatched.

With few of the royal family's fifth-rank priests killed by Piedman, Talem's side clearly had the upper hand.

Howard said: "Your Majesty, Fourth Highness is right, you have no chance of winning, just capture it!"

Nicholas VI cast his cold eyes on him, and said mockingly: "Howard, you are really my good servant!"

Howard said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, hundreds of millions of citizens of the dynasty endured the food crisis for half a month for no reason, resulting in the shutdown of various industries, and a small half of the country was split off...

"It all needs to be held accountable.

"You, as the decision maker for all of this, should be held accountable for this.

"Therefore, the ministers believe that you are no longer fit to sit on the throne."

Nicholas VI froze, murderous intent flashed, he looked at the other officials and nobles: "You think so too?"

No one responded, but at this moment, silence is the best response...

Ka!

Nicholas VI's knuckles creaked, this silence made him very angry, and he finally looked at Fang Yun: "Fang Qing, these unfamiliar nobles are nothing, even you want to betray me?"

Fang Yun was single-handedly promoted by Nicholas VI...

Under the gaze of Nicholas VI, Fang Yun's expression changed slightly, but he still resisted the pressure and said: "Your Majesty, the dynasty is in a dying state and needs to recuperate urgently. You have been reluctant to retreat for a long time, and the ministers can only resort to this terrible policy." , Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

"Hmph!" Nicholas VI's eyes flashed with disappointment, and he snorted coldly, "A rebellion is a rebellion, why bother to say it so grandly..."

Having said that, Nicholas VI pointed his fingers at all the officials and nobles: "I am so disappointed by a group of poor and rich people. Even if you set up a new king, you should support someone who is worthy, not this trash."

By the end, he was referring to Talem.

The muscles on Talem's face twitched, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes: "Father..."

"Shut up!" Nicholas VI yelled without giving him a chance to speak, "Talham, I ask you, who gave you the courage to rebel?"

Talem didn't answer, so he naturally wouldn't tell Nicholas VI that he had received a letter from Zhang Jichuan. In the letter, Zhang Jichuan agreed with him on behalf of Huang Donghe that as long as Nicholas VI abdicated, the two countries would cease fighting.

It also included a letter written by Huang Donghe, promising that from the day Nicholas VI abdicated, he would never invade an inch of the Nicholas dynasty's land.

The channel for sending the letter was provided by Jiang Heng.

Zhang Jichuan knew from the agreement between Talem and Jiang Yi that Jiang Heng's future in the Nicholas Dynasty was Talem...

After receiving the letter, Talem was moved.

Although he has gradually gained the trust and favor of Nicholas VI, Nicholas VI is in the prime of his youth, and according to the normal situation, it will take decades for him to have a chance to ascend the throne...

In a few decades, too many things can happen...

Talem reached out to Howard at the time.

Yes, Howard is his man.

Like Ross, Howard also firmly believes that women should not be in power, so he has always been unimpressed with Taisia, and instead invested in Talem long ago...

Back then in Dongyue Province, Howard was the first to respond when Talem proposed to negotiate with Jiang Yi...

……

Nicholas VI saw that Nizi was silent, and sneered contemptuously, and said again: "You bastard, do you think they support you because they are optimistic about you? Absurd, they just think you are easy to control. One day, they will take you Hu Jing who became the Nicholas dynasty..."

"Enough!" Suddenly, Talem snarled, interrupting Nicholas VI, and said with a ferocious expression, "Father, you really look down on me as always!

"But today, the son you look down on the most will take away everything from you with his own hands, and let you taste the feeling of being capsized in the gutter!

"Don't worry, I will declare that you died in battle heroically, and then hold a grand funeral for you!

"Howard listens!"

Howard immediately stepped forward and made a listening gesture.

Talem sneered and said: "Since the father is stubborn and refuses to abdicate, then we will not force him, and send him to die in one step!"

Howard's breath was stagnant, and he immediately realized that the final moment was coming, so he suppressed the tension, excitement, anxiety and other emotions in his heart, and squeezed out a word from his teeth:
"kill!"

Immediately, more than 20 fifth-rank priests and hundreds of fourth-rank priests gathered by a group of nobles rushed forward.

"Protect Your Majesty!" One of the only two remaining fifth-rank royal priests roared, but in the next second, she was cut away from Nicholas by a space-cutting extraordinary ability, and then besieged by five fifth-rank extraordinary ...

The situation of another fifth-rank royal enshrined was also very bad. Controlling abilities such as petrified light, entanglement, and solidification instantly overwhelmed him...

The rest of the fourth-rank royal priests let out a hoarse roar and stood in front of Nicholas VI defiantly.

But under the attack of several fifth-rank extraordinary, these fourth-rank royal priests died quickly and heroically...

Some fourth-rank royal family priests tried to lead Nicholas VI to break out of the siege, but before Talem took action, people had planted a solid barrier around the administrative building...

Rumble!
The building quickly collapsed in the aftermath of the clashes between many mid-tier three extraordinary creatures, and was wiped out in ashes.

Nicholas VI kept retreating, but soon he had no way out and was surrounded in front of the barrier.

At this time, there were not many royal priests around him left, but on the other hand, they only lost a fifth-rank extraordinary and a few fourth-rank extraordinary...

"Your Majesty, hurry up..." Seeing that there was no hope of making a comeback, a fourth-rank goblin activated a taboo ability and tore a hole in the barrier.

But before the words were finished, he was blown away by three fifth-rank superhumans.

The hole in the barrier was also repaired in an instant...

A trace of despair flashed in the eyes of Nicholas VI, and he thought wistfully, "Could it be that I really want to fall here? I think that I, the wise one, ended up like this..."

Scenes of the past flashed before his eyes, and His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help being depressed when he thought of all the past.

And at this moment, Nicholas VI suddenly found a doubt in his memory:
"Where is the person who tempted me to carry out the opium policy? Why have I never seen him again? And I have never thought of that person..."

Nicholas VI suddenly realized the abnormality, and he suddenly realized that his so-called layout might be part of another bigger game!

A pang of anger instinctively rose in Nicholas VI's heart, but it disappeared immediately:
"Forget it, it's about this time, even if you find out that someone has used it, so what can you do..."

He saw the last two royal priests fell to the ground with serious injuries, saw a group of murderous people rushing towards him, saw Talem's ecstatic expression, and heard the excited and trembling voice of the other party:

"Kill, kill him, kill him for this palace!"

Clang!
A sharp sword went straight to Nicholas VI's head.

But at this moment, two people appeared in front of Nicholas VI out of thin air.

call! ——

In midsummer and July, a gust of wind blew across Yujing, the capital of Gu Yue Kingdom, bringing a bit of coolness.

The wind is easy to blow in summer, not to mention that since the Fire Demon King created a huge lake outside Yujing City, Yujing is often accompanied by wind and rain.

No one is surprised by the wind...

At most, some people lamented that the weather forecast was becoming more and more inaccurate, and that this gust of wind was not predicted at all...

Many people took advantage of the coolness brought by this gust of wind to walk in the city...

Gradually, the wind became stronger and stronger...

On a pedestrian street in the west of the city, a tourist suddenly stopped in his tracks.

His companion took two steps before realizing the abnormality, turned around and asked, "What's the matter, A Yue?"

The tourist named Ayue shrugged his nose: "Did you smell anything?"

"Smell?" The companion listened, took a few deep breaths, shook his head and said, "No... A Yue, your nose is too sensitive, don't worry, this is Yujing, the air quality is good, there will be no What about harmful substances, let’s go and continue shopping..."

After speaking, he pulled her away without any explanation.

Ah Yue frowned: "Am I overthinking?"

But for some reason, she always felt as if some irritating substance was mixed in the air. This substance brought her great anxiety and resistance...

But looking around, she found that no one noticed anything unusual, as if the smell was just her illusion.

Urged by her companion, Ayue had no choice but to put aside her doubts and accompany her to the next luxury store...
