Chapter 404: Closed-Door Talk

A battle to encircle and kill the Undead King broke out at the port of Covenant City, and the sound of the magical explosion could be heard even in the palace.

King Bradley stood on a high terrace, the wind from the sea blowing up his gray hair and beard. He looked much older than a year ago, but his back was still straight, shouldering the burden of the empire.

"The storm is brewing. The time before it arrives is a torment for each of us." Emperor Bradley said, turning around and looking at Helot and Terenas standing there, then a smile appeared on his face: "Don't be so restrained, you are all my children, this is just a family meeting."

Helot and Terenas saluted to Emperor Bradley, then sat down on the white leather sofas respectively. The servants brought them tea, and then they all left.

The door is closed.

The ban was lifted, and the conversation between the three of them could not be monitored by anyone.

There was a moment of silence.

Emperor Bradley was drinking tea, and Helot was also sipping the tea slowly.

Terenas looked at the two of them and felt that he should play the role of a middleman, so he took the lead in breaking the silence: "Father, the 13th Investigation Team of the Imperial Military Police has eliminated the Corpse King and the main force of the Deep Hell. From now on, this Corpse Stitcher organization, which has committed many heinous crimes, will no longer be able to continue to endanger the security of the Empire.

Helot also found the lost Oaks..."

"It's good to have it back!" Emperor Bradley said with relief, "Ox is a contributor to the establishment of the empire. He witnessed the most passionate years and the deep friendship between the Bradley family and the Claulund family. It's not appropriate for him to stay in the Royal Museum. The Claulund family should take Oaks away.

We are all looking forward to the moment when it wakes up.”

Emperor Bradley already knew what was happening on the mountain. Now that Helot had taken back Oaks, the Royal Museum would definitely not be able to get it back.

Helot put down the teacup and said, "Ox's body is seriously damaged. It will take a long time for it to recuperate. It would be best if I could take care of it."

"Since Oaks needs to be recuperated, the mountain where it is located should be given to the Claulund family. The Empire will allocate a sum of money to build a manor for the Claulund family. You need to have a home of your own in Covenant City."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Then Emperor Bradley suddenly asked: "Is Aresta's death related to the Executioner?"

At this time, Emperor Bradley was no longer a simple elder. He exuded the aura of a king, which frightened Terenas so much that he almost knocked over the teacup in his hand.

Helot did not expect that Emperor Bradley would change the subject so drastically. He replied, "According to the clues I have now...it should be related to the prisoner."

"This group of thieves can only attack from behind." Emperor Bradley was extremely angry. "There are also a group of traitors in the palace! I believe you are not the prisoner. Eliminate them for me, and I will give you everything of the Claulund family."

Helot was unmoved, instead he smiled and said, "Since the Duke's crown and dukedom of the Claulund family have been donated to the empire by our ancestors, they must contain the wisdom of our ancestors. I'd better not take them back."

Emperor Bradley was stunned by Helot's refusal, then he laughed and pointed at Helot and said to Terenas: "He is definitely the most valuable friend you have ever made."

Terenas: "I think so too."

Then, Bradley the Great's expression suddenly became serious, and he said to Helot: "The work of the Imperial Military Police Department is no longer suitable for your current status. Come to the palace. I need you very much now."

Terenas was happy for Helot. Entering the palace meant becoming a court minister, with real power, much higher than being the leader of an investigation team at the Imperial Military Police.

But Helot refused again: "Your Majesty, politics is not my ideal! I have always aimed to become a mechanical engineer, and I studied energy mechanics at the Royal Academy. Now I run a machinery factory, and I don't have much time to serve you in the court."

Emperor Bradley looked at Helot, trying to determine whether he was lying.

The patriarch of the founding duke family has regained the family's lost power and can easily mobilize at least three level three extraordinary warriors to fight for him.

You said you only wanted to run a machinery shop?

Who would believe it!
However, Helot has been working on technology most of the time, and the accounts of the Werewolf Machinery Factory are clean, with all the capital flows being within the scope of business operations.

However, his relationship with the Elwin family, together with Terenas and Tomorrow Group, formed a "trident", and was indeed a force that the entire empire could not ignore.

Emperor Bradley suddenly realized that he had never understood the young man in front of him. Perhaps he really had ambitions that he could not understand.

At this moment, Emperor Bradley actually felt a sense of relief.

"I respect your decision." Emperor Bradley did not force Helot to enter the palace: "But you can't really do nothing. After all, the name of the Claulund family's ancestors is on the imperial constitution.

I know that the prisoner has mastered the fourth generation of supernatural technology. The only company that has the potential to break through the fourth generation of supernatural technology in the empire is probably Tomorrow Group. We cannot let a private consortium take on this heavy responsibility that can change the country's strength, and of course we cannot deprive Tomorrow Group of all its investment through administrative means.

I need the two of you to find a way to make Tomorrow Group's fourth-generation extraordinary technology fully serve the Empire.

This is a test for you, Terenas!"

Terenas sat up straight in an instant and agreed without thinking: "Father, leave this matter to the two of us."

Emperor Bradley looked at Helot.

Helot replied: "I am also very interested in the fourth generation of extraordinary technology of Tomorrow Group. With your order, I think I can make some more excessive demands on Tomorrow Group."

Emperor Bradley nodded with satisfaction: "You have me and the Empire behind you. Helot, you are not married yet, right?"

Once again, King Bradley suddenly changed the subject, and in such a sensitive way.

"I am not married yet," replied Helot.

Bradley smiled and said, "You should consider your other half now. The Claulund family needs an heir to bring together all the people who have gathered around them. If the Bradley family and the Claulund family can marry, it will definitely make our relationship closer.

Bramelo admires you very much."

Terenas was afraid that Emperor Bradley would grant her marriage on the spot, so he quickly said, "Blemero is too young, and she should focus on her studies now."

Bradley the Great said: "Age is not a problem. Of course the most suitable one is Emma Rue Bailey, she is also my daughter and a member of the royal family."
