Chapter 300 The weather is really "good"

The capital of the Sims Empire.

Somewhere around an extremely spacious underground round table, people were sitting deep in the shadows.

"Leighton is dead."

The figure sitting on the right side of the first seat spoke.

His heavy but majestic voice made the people who were discussing quietly underground stop their voices and looked at him.

Noticing everyone's gaze, the man put his hands on the round table.

Under the azure blue light that came in, a pair of old, withered and wrinkled hands were revealed.

"Dead in Boomshi City."

The sharp gaze projected from the shadows, circled around everyone present, and then returned to his hands.

Below, various voices sounded suddenly.

"Doves do it?"

"Impossible! Although the Dove Faction is against us, it is impossible for them to know about Layton's actions. He asked for leave on the grounds that he needs to capture the sixth spirit beast to advance."

"indeed."

"And, in a dovish way, they would have dealt with Layton in other ways than by killing him."

"Stalking, ordering repatriation, or even making some calculations, I am not surprised, but it is killing"

"."

Most of the people below are hesitant about Dove's killing of Layton.

Although, they are faction hostile to the doves.

But after so many years of fighting, they have already figured out the behavior style of the doves.

They definitely do things on the premise of being conservative.

If the doves found out about Leighton's whereabouts in Boomsey City, found him, and read him a copy of "Excessively Away from the Post", Leighton would definitely have a drink.

After all, although Leiden had legitimate reasons to ask for leave, the distance between Hims Imperial Capital and Boomshi City was too far, so staying away from his post could be considered a violation of discipline.

At that time, the hawks will either respond with a tough attitude in the court, or they will concede part of their interests, either in the military or in the regime.

Killing Layton is definitely an act of minimizing benefits.

It is impossible for a normal politician, or a member of a faction, to do such a thing.

after all.

Although a newly-promoted sixth-order imperial spirit master is powerful and holds some military power, it will not have much impact on the overall situation.

Instead of killing him, it is better to use Leiden in exchange for more benefits.

"Perhaps... some organization in Boomshi City did it?"

"Stupid! It's really a matter of life and death, and Layton doesn't have to hide his identity. Which organization in Boomshi City dares to kill him?"

"I don't care how Layton died or who killed him. What I care more about is that after Layton's death, who will take over what we promised him?"

All the people present are fine people, and all of them are politicians.

A person's death is completely acceptable.

Just don't affect the overall situation.

As for the mood of the figure sitting next to the right hand of the first seat, they can understand it.

Because that person is the current team leader of the Bryce family, and Layton is one of the outstanding members of the younger generation of the family. This time, he will be promoted to the sixth-level imperial spirit master. He made some meritorious deeds, and it was almost a certainty that he would be awarded an honorary general.

By then, the Bryce family will have a greater say in the military, and the family's influence will also be more prominent.

As for general and lieutenant general, it seems that they are only one level behind, but in the official system of the Sims Empire, they are not a concept at all.

A lieutenant general can only be regarded as a middle-level and high-level general. He has the right to speak in the cabinet, but he only speaks.

But the admiral, as long as he passed the operation, he would have the opportunity to take a seat in the cabinet, and he was also qualified to compete for the title of earl or even higher. He was the proper upper-level figure in the entire empire.

Such a loss, even if the Bryce family has a big business, it is very distressing.

But obviously.

The people around the round table only briefly expressed regret for Layton, and then focused on the "job" after Layton's death.

Benefits are the real reason why they can all sit here.

boom! !

Listening to the constant debate about who to send to take over Layton's "job", the old man in the right seat of the first seat couldn't help but slammed the table.

The wolf-like eyes swept over the people below one by one, and said word by word:

"Since it was originally the task of our Bryce family, it can only be taken over by our family!"

His words carried an undeniable voice.

"Old guy, that's not what you said. Since your people have failed even if they didn't do anything, then we should give us a chance, don't you think?"

The one who spoke was the figure sitting on the left hand side of the head seat.

It is also one of the few families present that can compete with the Bryce family.

"you!"

Patriarch Bryce sat up straight, his voice suppressed anger.

Tuk Tuk-

But a crisp sound was heard, interrupting everyone's argument.

I see.

The person who was deeply trapped in the head seat and never made a sound tapped the edge of the round table lightly with his fingers.

The movement he made caused everyone present to stop arguing, and when they looked up, there was a bit of awe in their eyes.

"Since it's the Bryce family's mistake, it's up to the Bryce family to make up for it."

In the thick shadow of the first seat, a young voice sounded.

And although his words sounded light and light, and he couldn't tell whether he was angry or not, there was a trace of indisputability in his words.

"Since His Highness has spoken, it is natural to follow His Highness's wishes."

The person on the left who originally competed with Patriarch Bryce immediately gave up the fight.

The people below also said:

"Yes, Your Highness!"

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Patriarch Bryce expressed his sincere gratitude.

In the next second, his body froze slightly.

He only felt a gaze from the head seat, which made him feel the hairs on his back stand up slightly.

"Once again, but never again, you understand what I mean?"

Patriarch Bryce's face straightened, and he said very seriously:
"The Bryce family will never let you down again, Your Highness!"

"A Bing, do you feel that the weather seems a little too good recently?"

In Boomshi City, Li Changan sat on a deck chair in the garden, looking up at the sky.

Above the blue sky, a round of sun was shining brightly, and the red moon and blue moon beside it seemed so small.

The most special thing is undoubtedly the huge "Tianhe" across the sky, which is lush and green, as if reflecting an emerald green ocean.

Under the clear sky, the green Milky Way is very eye-catching.

"Have it?"

Jiang Bing, who spread out the operating table beside the garden, raised his head and said casually while adjusting the equipment.

"No?"

Li Changan asked back, and he helped the invisible "analytical monocle".

"How do I feel, there seems to be something running in the forest of 'Tianhe'."

Jiang Bing squinted at him, twitched the corner of his mouth and said:
"Not everyone has the same 'analytical monocle' as you. What you can see doesn't mean we can see it."

"Too."

Li Changan shrugged, picked up the drink on the table next to him and took a sip.

Regardless of whether there are abnormalities in "Tianhe", these should be the things that the people above need to worry about.

This is the real sky falling, and there are tall people on it.

"However, recently there have been many shadows of outsiders in the church." Jiang Bing said again.

"Ok?"

"They're all from the Eastern Continent, and their accent probably came from the imperial capital. There are quite a few of them."

Li Changan touched his chin.

"How did the other forces react?"

"How can there be any reaction? Usually there are many people who come to the imperial capital, but this time is a little bit more, and they didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Instead, it seems more like they are here to give money."

"Find a way to find two people with relatively higher identities, and keep a close eye on them."

"no problem."

After Jiang Bing responded, he straightened up with a long breath, and threw a spiral staggered scepter in his hand towards Li Changan.

"It's done, let's see if there is any problem."

Snapped!
Li Changan grabbed the scepter with one hand and raised his eyebrows slightly.

From the cuffs of his clothes, thin, hair-like wooden branches slowly extended out, entangled and coiled around the scepter.

Soon, "Scepter of Tree God" and "Song of Ice and Fire" merged again.

At the same time, after sensing the change of the scepter for a while, Li Changan showed a smile of admiration on his face, and said with emotion:

"As expected of you."

After Jiang Bing's creation, the asylum barrier and space ring that originally belonged to Layton were perfectly integrated with the scepter, and the functions of each other did not cause any conflict, and the side effects were also unified.

Now, this scepter not only has all the functions of the tree god's scepter and all the functions of the Song of Ice and Fire, but also combines an absolute defensive barrier that can last for 1 minute, and a portable space that can be opened at any time.

Side effects?
The current scepter is a big spiritual core devourer!

Very, very big kind of big family!

Fortunately, for the current Li Changan, he can fully afford such consumption of spiritual core.

Not to mention the tree god sect, just because of the large number of spiritual cores he is carrying on his body now, he doesn't have to worry about the consumption of the scepter at all.

Hearing Li Changan's praise, Jiang Bing frowned.

"But you have to pay attention, there are not many 'interfaces' left in the scepter. If you want to integrate any equipment in the future, you have to consider whether the scepter can bear it. After all, it is essentially, It’s not a fourth-order limiter.”

　I am on a business trip recently, and the amount of updates is a bit unpredictable. Sorry, I will restore it as soon as possible after returning from the business trip.
