Miss Wang Weina, my cousin can't do it either!

"Stop, don't move! Get your commander out!"

However, not long after Ernest finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the group of students.Wayne and the others looked at each other and walked towards the student group.

I saw the gray-haired male sorcerer crawling up from the bushes, holding a magic staff that exudes a miserable green light in his hand that was scorched by the flames, pointed at the students not far away, and shouted:

"Let me go, or I'll kill them."

Wayne glanced at his slightly twisted right leg and immediately understood what had happened.

Injured by Shirtel's blow, he knew he couldn't escape, so he wanted to take the students as hostages?

Wayne glanced at the student, easily spotted the distinctive pair of small horns and long blue hair, and smiled slightly.

This is looking for death.

He glanced at the shadow guard at the side, and as expected, the shadow guard had already pulled out the Tang knife, lowered his sense of presence, and walked towards the warlock silently.

Chapter 54 We are family!

"Oh, you're too hard on yourself."

After Ernest put all the students back into the troop carrier, Wayne walked out from behind the steam armor unit, looked at the gray-haired warlock lying on the ground, and sighed helplessly.

At first glance, there seems to be no scars on Warlock's body, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a cut that is oozing blood at the junction of his head, limbs and torso.

This method of death can hardly prevent Wayne from thinking of the legendary five-horse quartering, but this kind of cutting is still much more beautiful than the bloody tearing of five-horse quartering. At first glance, the gray-haired warlock seems to be lying on the ground quietly. Like falling asleep.

Ying Weizi danced a knife flower, put the knife into the sheath elegantly, and replied to Wei En's complaint with the same expression:

"Kidnapping Princess Dayan is a death sentence according to the law. Unfortunately, the time is urgent and there are no tools, so it is easier for him."

Wayne pursed his lips, thinking that according to what you said, if Wei Yanwu really asked you to deal with the black snake Talulah in the future, wouldn't you also have to give the old black snake a set of guns?

Of course, this is just thinking about it. In fact, Wayne can use his tail ball to guess that if the shadow guards really come out at that time, they will probably not kill Tallulah when they see him.

He glanced at the bodies that could almost be said to be "put together" before him, and sighed:

"We still have a lot of questions we want to pry out of him. It's a pity to kill him like this. But people don't come back from the dead, Ernest, send someone to check his belongings, and hope to find something useful thing."

"Your Highness."

Ernest walked forward as expected, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and opened the handkerchief. Inside was an unfamiliar medal with a strange shape.

"When you were hiding from that Miss 'Chen', we have already checked the body. Except for the staff and this medal, there is nothing useful."

medal?

Wayne took the medal on the handkerchief and looked it over carefully.The appearance of the medal is very strange. It is divided into two layers. The outer layer is an equilateral triangle composed of three rhombuses with different thicknesses, while the inner layer is a pattern resembling a spiral dart or an Eastern Shuriken.

This style of medal should generally represent a certain camp.

Wayne's immediate reaction was: This is the rebel symbol erected by the northern rebels after they declared their rebellion.He frowned, looked at Ernest, and asked:

"Are there any other rebel soldiers with medals like this?"

Ernest shook his head: "No, Your Highness. It is precisely because there is only one medal that we think it may be special. Otherwise, a mere medal is not worthy of your attention."

Wayne frowned even deeper.

Since no one else in the northern rebels had similar medals, this medal probably wasn't the emblem of the sudden outbreak of the northern rebels.It didn't frustrate him too much to guess that it was overthrown. He was just wondering why this emblem was on the body of a northern rebel leader?

A leader of the rebel army in the north, secretly there is another camp?

But Wayne carefully recalled the emblems of each faction in his mind about Tomorrow's Ark, but he couldn't find a faction that matched the appearance of the medal.

Isn't it the mark of the camp?Or...was he crossing a camp that hadn't been announced before?

That would be troublesome.A rebellion within Victoria can be easily resolved, but if it involves an unknown force, a force that invalidates Wayne's foresight, then the difficulty of suppressing the rebellion will increase significantly.Because the head of the enemy is probably not the Duke of Normandy at all, but someone else!

He reviewed the emblems of the various factions in his mind again, comparing the goat of Letania, the double-headed eagle of Ursus, the dragon of Great Flame, and even the emblem of Kiesta, and confirmed that they still did not match. After that, he could only temporarily put away his thoughts, handed the medal back to Ernest, and ordered:

"Keep this thing safe, we may have dug up the truth of this rebellion."

Ernest was slightly startled, nodded, wrapped the medal in a handkerchief again, and put it in the inner bag of his military uniform.

Now that there is too little information, he can't judge which force is behind this medal.But Wayne is not worried, because foxes will always reveal their tails, and the clues will only increase until Wayne can find out everything based on the clues.

"Let's go, let's go back to Earl Vincent's mansion."

....................

Victoria, Londinium, Iron Palace.

Wei Na watched the entire speech of the Earl of Princeton with a serious expression, put down the tablet computer in her hand, sighed long, and looked at Teresia:

"Teresia, do you know? In fact, Victoria does not have a king now."

Teresia blinked suspiciously and asked, "Why?"

Wei Na turned her eyes to the empty palace hall, and she seemed to have returned to the scene of the coronation ceremony more than half a year ago. She explained:

"Victoria's succession of the throne is not secret. Generally speaking, after the Aslan royal family is crowned, they will often make the king's first televised speech to announce the new king's enthronement, and Victoria has entered a new era, but... .”

Teresia guessed something, and said, "But you didn't make that televised speech?"

Wei Na nodded: "This is my brother's idea. My coronation was very hasty, and it was based on...some accidents. Generally speaking, I succeeded as king at my brother's coronation ceremony. Since When I returned to the palace, I had only one week to prepare for the official coronation."

"I'm not ready. I don't have a speech, I don't know the process, and I don't know how to show the etiquette and majesty of the royal family. Even if it's the coronation ceremony, I'm looking forward to it..."

She recalled the scene where she took the crown from the unicorn elder and put it on her own head, she shook her head with a smile,

"So my brother helped me get rid of the TV speech. He is the son of the king of the North, the original heir to the throne, and a well-known 'person who does not observe any etiquette'. He strongly rejected the TV speech before the coronation ceremony. request, so the radio station did not have time to make any preparations, and even I, who later crowned him, benefited from this, and did not lose face on TV."

Wei Na took a deep breath and said:

"So, apart from the great nobles who were fortunate enough to participate in the coronation ceremony of Lentinium, in the outside world, from Doron to Essex, and even Lentinium, the center of the empire, the people have not yet known that they have a coronation. A new king. Victoria has been without a king for over a hundred days!"

Wei Na has always felt that this matter can be postponed. With the help of Wei En, Theresia and the ministers, she will gradually mature and truly shoulder the responsibility of a queen.

But obviously, time waits for no one.

After the Great Purge of the King of the North, the royal family of Aslan no longer showed their faces in public.The northern rebellion was like a heavy hammer that woke up Wei Na sitting on the throne. It was not that she wanted to mature and take on Victoria, but that Victoria wanted her to mature and perform the duties of the queen.

Victoria expects everyone to do their duty, whether it is a worker, a businessman, a student, or a farmer.Or soldiers, nobles, or emperors!

Even without activating Originium skills, Teresia understood what Wei Na wanted to do.Before all the rebels in the army were cleared, Londinium could not send troops to the north immediately.But war is never just a fight on the battlefield, but also a confrontation on the field of public opinion.

It's time to tell all Victoria who their Emperor is!

"Do you need me to help you?"

Theresia took the initiative to say that Wei Na looked at Theresia in surprise. She alone has a slim chance of winning in this kind of intrigue and public opinion war.She thought about asking Theresia for help, but she thought that even if she wanted Theresia's help on such a sensitive issue involving Victoria's state affairs, she would have some scruples.

But Teresia just responded to Wei Na's surprised and grateful eyes with a natural and gentle smile.

"We are family."

Theresa said so.

Chapter 55 The King's Speech

Victoria, downtown Londinium.

Although Laut is just an ordinary factory worker, he still worries about Victoria's future even today.

The sky over Londinium is shrouded in haze. The royal family of Aslan, who once led the people of Victoria to victory in the bloody war with Gaul, is now gone. The huge Victoria is cracking. He doesn't even know that the towering Iron Palace in the center of the city What is the scene in it, and who is sitting on the throne.

The time has only been more than ten years, but the empire seems to have experienced a hundred years of spring and autumn. Peace and stability no longer exist. The War of the Roses launched by the King of the North even brought soldiers into the pure land of Londinium.And the rule of the King of the North was not stable, and his kingship was wiped out in an accidental death after only ten years.But now, the northern border of the empire is once again in turmoil.

In the past, he was the king of the North, but now he is a duke. Will the next time even bandits and bandits be able to call themselves lonely and widowed in the land of Victoria and occupy the mountains as king?

Lauter didn’t fall asleep all night last night, and the seemingly impassioned, but in fact nonsense, out-of-the-know article "Victoria has no king" was repeated in his mind.The young Earl of Princeton talked on TV about the restoration of parliament, the reconstruction of elections, democracy and freedom, and frantically belittled the so-called "people's livelihood" situation under the royal government.But there is no mention of workers, farmers, or merchants.

He didn't even know who gave him the confidence to say such a thing.

Lauter silently took a book from the bookshelf at home and started to read it.Today the factories are on holiday, a holiday granted by the royal family to workers across the country.He was literate, because the royal family had sent compulsory education teams down to every factory to teach Victorian people how to read.The books in his hands have been flipped through several times, because even without vacations, he can still read these books after get off work in this country that allows component unions to protect workers' rights.Although he is just an ordinary worker, he can easily fill his bookshelves because he can earn enough money through labor. After all, Victoria is the first and only one in Terra to realize steam technology. In a revolutionary country, the salary of a technical worker here is much higher than that of a white-collar worker in a consortium of traitors in Colombia.Because this is Victoria, the most prosperous and powerful country in Terra!

The book cover is a question-and-answer book produced by Yan Kingdom, which mainly talks about the way of governing the country.Don't ask why Lauter, a worker, likes to read this type of book. He can answer you with a very classic sentence in it-a humble man who dare not forget to worry about the country.

Impressed, he turned to the page he wanted to read fluently, and looked at the page that was said to be "a dialogue between a Yan country farmer and a historian".

[Historist: My fellow, can I ask you a question? 】

[Farmer: Look at your dress, master from the city?OK, you ask.But I don't know much. 】

[Historian: This question is not difficult, I just want to ask you, what do you think of Emperor Taizong in the history of Dayan? 】

[Farmer: Ah, I admire him very much. 】

【Historian (surprised): Why, but he seized power and took over the throne, killing his brother and forcing his father, the throne did not come from the right path! 】

[Farmer: Because he gave me a tax cut. 】

Lauter felt that he was no different from the Yan country farmer who was far away in the sky.Although they are not as educated as historians, nor as noble and elegant as nobles, they can tell who is good to him and who is not good to him.Peasants think that the emperor who cuts taxes and feeds him is a good emperor, but Lauter believes that the king and king who led Victoria to become rich and powerful and let Victoria have today's status are far from being exploited by a group of people who only know When the nobles of the workers are replaced.

But Victoria has no king at this time!Could it be that the Aslan royal family has given up resistance?

"Do you want to contact the workers of Eartha to discuss this matter?"

Laut thought with worry that just as he was about to put on his coat and go out to the factory, he was bumped into by his oncoming wife.

"Oh! What are you doing, leaving in such a hurry!?"

Lauter rubbed his nose in dissatisfaction, and glared at his wife. The wife smiled apologetically, and said impatiently:

"Laut, quick, turn on the TV!"

Lauter's face collapsed: "What time is this, are you still in the mood to watch TV?"

The wife shook her head, grabbed Lauter's hand, walked to the TV, turned on the TV, and said:

"No, Lauter, I know you couldn't sleep last night because of something. But this is good news!"

She turned the volume of the TV to the maximum, then turned sideways, and showed Laut what was on the screen—it was a flag composed of a lion, a griffin, a crown and a golden shield—it was the flag of Victoria!And the grand and elegant music that rang in my ears was the national anthem of Victoria!

Wearing a blue cloak and a majestic crown, in front of him is a podium full of flowers, and behind him is a brightly colored national flag.The well-dressed Wei Na lost her remaining childishness at this moment, and her face looked heroic. She took a deep breath and nodded to Teresia who was standing behind the camera.

Laut is no longer familiar with the scene in front of him. Ten years ago, it was the same setting, the same music, and he was standing in front of the TV screen and couldn't move his eyes.

At that time, the King of the North had wiped away the blood of the War of the Roses, and Londinium and Victoria ushered in a new era.Lauter, who finally had a moment of respite, returned home from the headquarters of the All-Victoria Federation of Labor, Eartha, and sat in front of the TV to witness the scene.

This is the televised address for Aslan's royal coronation!

Lauter finally realized what happened. He quickly ran back to the living room and turned on the big TV in the living room without changing the channel. Every TV station in Victoria was broadcasting the same program at the moment!

Wei Na stared straight at the dark camera in front of her eyes. The preparations for this televised speech were still insufficient. After less than a day of preparation, she was forced to choose the location of the speech in her Queen's Office.Even the photographer can only be served by Teresia.Logically speaking, she should be nervous...

But for some reason, when Wei Na actually stood behind the podium and faced the lens of the camera that broadcast her face and words to more than [-] mobile cities across Victoria, she felt extremely calm and even a little excited.

This is a sense of responsibility, this is a sense of mission!

In the past, Wayne's father, the King of the North, stood under the same background and announced to the people of Victoria that a war was over, and his coronation would bring peace to Victoria!

And now, Wei Na is also standing here, she nodded towards the camera, watched the camera officially started with a light flashing, and straightened her chest.

She will solemnly declare to countless eagerly awaited Victorians opposite the camera:

"Report, all citizens of Victoria, whether you are a worker, a farmer, a businessman, a student, or a soldier, aristocrat, and foreign friends. Please remember—"

"I am your king!"

She declared that another war had begun.The flames of war are once again burning from the northern border to the center of the empire, and this time, she will not lose!

"My coronation will bring peace and prosperity to Victoria!"

Wei Na's words were sonorous and powerful.The Aslan girl is not making an empty promise, she is stating an indisputable fact!

Chapter 56 I Did Nothing

Victoria, County Toronto, Hill Road ruins.

Mostima stomped unwillingly, stretched out his hand, and stopped the Pope's personal guard who was about to continue searching.

No one can find a shadow guard who is trying his best to hide his body. The ancient Eastern Empire has too many strange spells, some of which even completely surpass the framework of the existing Originium skills, moving towards The direction of "miracle" is developing.
