Chapter 361: Ways to Become a King

In the Imperial Palace of Lion, on the huge square of the Royal Palace, a white-haired old man was standing in front of the palace gate.

 He is William Garrison, who is known as the strongest shield in the empire.

William Garrison did not drink water for three days and three nights. He was waiting for Emperor Lane's edict of guilt. If the emperor did not admit his mistake, he would stand here until he died here.

In the last battle of Unholy Song, William Garrison, a centenarian, led a team of paladins to fend off the Githyanki attacks again and again.

It was also William Garrison’s hard work that allowed Emperor Lane to return to Liuyan City safely.

William Garrison was originally a staunch royalist and had quarreled with the previous Supreme Judgment more than once over the Lion royal family. Because in William Garrison's heart, the word Lane represents the Holy King Arthur Lane, and his descendants should inherit this glory and be respected by everyone.

 James Watson, a serious and staid old man, even rebuked the emperor for inappropriate behavior more than once.

At that time, the emperor was not the same as he is now, but he was also a young man who knew nothing and was prone to making jokes at government meetings.

But James Watson is on top of every little thing, so how can he still have any respect for "Ryan"?

Several times, William Garrison almost threw the white dueling gloves into James Watson's face, but it was a bit bullying for the paladin to challenge the light priest to duel. After all, William Garrison was also a famous paladin in the empire. , which means that the Silver Moon Knight has a higher reputation than him, and he can't bully others.

Hence, neither man touched a hand until William Garrison retired.

And after the battle of Unholy Hymn, William Garrison knew he was wrong. The emperor of Lane was the one who really insulted the word Lane. He never thought that the Lane people would die at the hands of his emperor.

The Githyanki and red dragons killed less than ten thousand people on the frontal battlefield, and of the remaining ten thousand, two thousand were crushed to death by the emperor, while the remaining thousands scattered and fled after their morale collapsed. A tragic death.

It’s not their fault, even the emperor has run away. How can you ask those young people to have courage?

After returning to Flowing Fire, William Garrison spent a long time calming the soldiers and holding the city secure to prevent the Githyanki from attacking again.

It wasn't until the Githyanki completely left that William Garrison began to impeach the emperor, which flustered the young Emperor Lion for a long time. The young emperor chose to escape, but a stubborn old man like William Garrison who dared to fight the Supreme Judgment would not It's so easy to let him go.

 Now we arrived in the imperial capital, standing in front of the palace gate in silent protest.

 If it were someone else, just carry it away.

But William Garrison's identity is here. After the death of the Knight of Silver Moon, there is no more virtuous and respected paladin than him. Moreover, as long as the old man stuck the giant shield taller than a man on the ground, no one in the entire Ryan could move his body.

The strongest shield in the empire, this is not a name just blown away.

William Garrison was as solid as a rock and could not be shaken.

Even if the Silver Moon Knight is resurrected, it will take more than a dozen sword blows to break through his defense.

This made Emperor Ryan feel uncomfortable. Every time the old man stood there for an extra second, the little emperor felt like he had been slapped in the face.

 But there was no other way. After the last defeat, he could no longer use the magic dragon weapon.

Because the group of old zombies in the underground knew that the little emperor was defeated, two of them were so angry that they died on the spot. The remaining people decided to choose a new emperor immediately, and the dragon armed forces didn't even think about it.

Thousands of royal bloodline members have begun a secret selection process, and it is estimated that a new emperor will be selected within a few days.

At that time, the current little emperor will first write a self-incriminating edict, and then hand over the throne to others amidst the ridicule and curses of the whole country.

　　He would then be executed as a royal disgrace, and his name would eventually be erased from historical records.

 He cannot accept this result. Obviously everything is going to be fine, he can control the dragon's weapons, the world should surrender under his feet, and Ryan will become the only country in the world.

　　This is obviously what the script should be. Why did it become like this?

He cannot accept this fact and must not die without leaving a name.

 It's just that he has no choice. A person without any power, the only thing he has is the name of emperor, and now, the name of emperor seems to be no longer useful.

 As a young man with no skills in literature or military skills, he didn't know what to do.

Just after spending a few days in panic, the haggard little emperor seemed to hear something.

"come on!"

The little emperor looked around hurriedly, only to find that the room was empty and there was no one at all.

I thought I was hallucinating because I was overly worried, but then the deep voice continued to sound.

 “Come here, little one.”

The little emperor was so frightened that he did not dare to respond. He was about to call the guards outside, but he heard this voice again: "Do you want to die anonymously? Just like the two emperors before?"

 The little emperor’s open mouth made no sound.

 The emperors changed three times in a few years. This is something everyone in Ryan knows.

 The reason for changing the emperor is very simple: blood.

 Only those who can resonate with the dragon's weapons can become Emperor Ryan, and this resonance is not static. Once the resonance effect weakens, the emperor will be replaced.

 The same was true for the first two emperors. Suddenly one day they could no longer make the magic dragon arm react, so they had to be replaced.

 It was a piece of cake for them to be emperors, and it was even more of a piece of cake to leave office. No one could even remember their names.

The little emperor panicked and said to this mysterious voice: "But... what should I do? I can't do anything."

 “Don’t be nervous, don’t panic, calmness is the basic requirement for being a king.”

 The little emperor took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down.

 “Tell me your name, young man.”

 The little emperor replied: "I...my name is Price Lane."

“Very good, Price, you actually have great potential, but you have been restricted by others. Come on, I will teach you how to become a qualified emperor.”

The little emperor seemed to have grasped the last straw and asked quickly: "What should I do? In a few days, I will be secretly executed."

The mysterious voice said: "It's very simple, as long as you have strong enough power, they can kill an insignificant insect, but how are they going to kill a giant dragon?"

 “Dragon?”

“Yes, become a dragon, become the most powerful existence in this world, and you will be the real emperor.”

The little emperor was very moved after hearing this, and quickly asked: "But, how can I become stronger?"

“It’s very simple, come to me, I’ll wait for you in the treasure house, and I will teach you how to become stronger.”

The little emperor was startled and said in surprise: "Treasure house? You...are you a magic dragon armed?"

"Haha, Dragon Arms is just an insulting name for you. Little guy, remember, my name is Atros, Atros Eternity!"
