Shiyan glanced at the two lying there, especially Tina, the eleventh princess who was unconscious. At this time, this cute little girl had blood on her forehead, her hair was loose, and her face was pale. The lips were still faintly purple, obviously slightly poisoned.
It is estimated that even with the protection of a beard, as an ordinary person, she will inevitably be hit by the poisonous smoke.
Seeing that Tina was in a very bad condition, Shi Yan finally made up his mind and turned the yellow wood ring on his middle finger.
hum!
The ring suddenly glowed with a faint yellow light.
"Oh, I didn't expect you to dare to contact me? I'm really surprised." A sharp female voice came from the ring.
"Miss Nasha, I really can't help it." Stone Eye replied with a wry smile.
***************
Garen's face was gloomy, and he pressed his hand on the armrest of the seat.
"I don't need you to help me resist malice." He said lightly, "Get out of the way, kid."
"She is different from the totem master." The child slowly moved away, and the little girl had completely disappeared.
Instead, Grand Duke Cody narrowed his eyes and looked towards this side.
The two looked at each other, and they both saw an inexplicable look in each other's eyes.
Coincidentally, both Garen and him looked away.
"Different? What's the difference?"
The eldest princess and the fourth prince are vying to win the support of the nobles below, constantly performing and making promises.
Garen and the child communicated in low voices in their seats.
The child stood again on Garen's left side.
"I don't know." He seemed to be thinking about how to explain it. After a while of silence, he spoke again.
"Our existence is different from ordinary people. Many differences."
Garen's eyes were sharp, and he scanned around Duke Cody, but he didn't find the little girl again.
"Interesting, I'm getting more and more interested in that little guy just now." He was faintly excited.
"She chose that person as her mark." The child suddenly pointed at Grand Duke Cody.
"The imprint? What is that?"
"It's a kind of companionship. If we want to use our abilities, we must sign a seal with someone." The child said it much more clearly this time. "I can only remember so much, I can't remember the rest."
"Don't worry, you'll know in the future." Garen smiled, calmed down his emotions, and turned his attention to the venue again.
At this time, a huge white elliptical mirror was floating above the venue.
Images of distant seas of monsters emerged in the mirror. Countless groups of monsters rushed into the ground around the imperial capital, burning into white torches, and quickly scattered into countless black ash.
Gradually, some powerful monsters began to retreat.
Although the lair masters are not very intelligent, they still have the instinct to avoid threats and dangers. As the lair master retreated, the monsters subordinate to the lair also quickly retreated in large areas.
As the monsters continued to retreat, bursts of cheers continued to emanate from the venue below.
Everyone was completely relieved.
Because the emotions in the venue were too enthusiastic, I couldn't restrain it for the time being, so I had to take a break.
Wisgar, who was in a high position, got up at this time, and the people who integrated the three legions whispered something, with serious faces.
The Duke of Bainock and the eldest princess stood together, chatting happily about something.
The fourth prince is accepting questions from the nobles below.
Instead, Grand Duke Cody got up directly and walked towards Garen.
Garen also stood up.
"Your Excellency, I saw the little guy behind you just now. It's really cute." He smiled and stretched out his hand.
The two shook hands.
Hearing Garen's words, a sharp light flashed in Cody's eyes.
"I didn't expect that you were also the imprint of the listener. Over the years, I have seen only a handful of imprints. I thought that no one would know this secret."
"Oh? What secret?" Garen looked bewildered.
"Don't you know?" Cody was slightly taken aback.
"Should I know?" Garen asked back.
"Can you show me the mark on your hand?" Cody paused and made a request.
Garen was about to reply when suddenly he felt his right hand being grabbed by a child.
Suddenly, a hot burning sensation came from the back of his hand. This feeling only flashes for a moment, and then disappears quickly.
Garen looked at the child. I saw him shaking his head slightly.
"Sorry, it seems that I was abrupt." Cody smiled suddenly, turned around and sat down in his seat without saying anything more.
Garen raised his right hand and looked at it.
I saw a small red dot imprinted on the back of the right hand, like a small round red mole, like a light touch of red ink on the back of the hand.
"What's this?"
"The imprint." The child replied honestly, "I heard that guy's question just now, and I accidentally imprinted it on your hand."
"What's the use of this?" Garen was speechless.
There was distress in the child's eyes.
"I don't know, this is the first time I have imprinted people. Anyway, different imprinters will get certain benefits, but this kind of benefit is easily absorbed by the same kind of plunder. After absorbing, the ability of successful plunderers will continue to become stronger .”
"You have to be careful." The child added at the end, "It seems that this imprint can let you enter the world that I can hear."
"The world you heard?" Garen's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, he inexplicably thought of the secret martial arts world before he traveled here.
"Besides, you must protect me." The child hastened to add, "That little girl just wanted to steal my abilities."
"All right, all right, I'll protect you." Garen patted the child on the head. "Although I still don't know what's going on."
"Sure enough, you are the right choice!" The child smiled and took out a plum from his pocket. The plum turned black strangely, and he threw it into his mouth, and began to chew it.
"Do you want it?" He took out another handful of plums and spread them on his hands.
Garen glanced at the plums, each of them was round, with thin skin and thick flesh, looking tender and juicy.
But when he thought about the strawberry from last time, he suddenly lost his appetite.
"Forget it, eat it yourself."
Come to yourself.
The venue has gradually quieted down.
The eldest princess spoke again.
"Today's meeting, as a representative of the royal family, I hereby announce that the Kuwaitan Imperial Council is hereby established!!"
Wow! ! !
Thunderous applause.
Everyone in the audience applauded violently.
Then there is the allocation of seats. Now that the threat has been lifted, everyone is more relaxed, and the seats in the House of Representatives are divided according to the proportion of forces. All agree.
Four major factions: the eldest princess and Bai Nok, the fourth prince and Cody, Garen and Aidin, and the Little League. The four forces are the fundamental forces that determine the current situation in the imperial capital. So 80% of the votes are divided equally.
Garen and Aiding got 20 votes, that is, 10 votes each, and the remaining 20 votes were allocated to small and medium nobles, who came to vote with their representatives.
In this way, the basic pattern is settled.
Although it seems fair on the surface, in fact, Bai Nuoke and Cody have the greatest real advantage. As dukes, they have many relatives below them. Not a small proportion. To a large extent, it can affect the final 20 votes of the public.
But Garen didn't have any intention of fighting for power anyway, as long as he lived comfortably. Power comes from strength, which is common to any world. He only needs to improve his own strength, and the power will naturally become bigger and stronger.
Finally the meeting is over. Everyone dismissed the meeting, and the door of the venue opened with a bang.
Everyone got up one after another.
Garen walked towards the side door with the child and the four Blackfyre guards.
"Palace Master." Suddenly the eldest princess' voice came from behind.
Garen turned around and saw the Eldest Princess approaching, wearing a black low-cut dress that tightly bound her slender waist.
"Your Highness? What's the matter?" Garen lowered his head slightly and saluted.
"Can't I chat with you if I have nothing to do?" The eldest princess showed a trace of sadness. She approached Garen lightly, leaning forward, the tip of her nose almost touching Garen's chin.
"What I said before still counts." A voice as thin as a mosquito gnat entered Garen's ears.
After the eldest princess finished speaking, she took the servant away with light steps.
The Grand Duke Bai Nuoke nodded at Garen with an ambiguous smile, and then led others away.
"Boss, don't touch this woman." The child's voice came from behind. "There's something wrong with this woman."
"It's through this that she controls so many masters to serve her, so it's no wonder it's okay." Garen nodded knowingly. "Let's go, this time we have confirmed the current situation in Kuwaitan."
The stabilization of the situation in the imperial capital will inevitably lead to the stabilization of the surrounding areas, and the people fleeing from the rest of the line of defense, which are getting more and more flustered, will gradually stabilize. But after this time of monster looting, all the crops that were originally planted are probably scrapped, and the food problem is probably the biggest trouble in front of them.
Garen suddenly thought of Baker's Stone Eye and the others. He had always used Baker's Stone Eye as the standard for judging the progress of history, so as to see where history had come to.
In the original history, during the period between the rise of the Heitian Society and the decline of the royal family, because of the continuous wars and turmoil, as well as the looting of monsters, although the Heitian Society succeeded, the civilians also fell into the abyss of despair. Food and water sources It has to be purified before it can be eaten, everything is polluted.
A large number of civilians starved to death because they could not afford expensive food.
At this time, the biggest advantage of the Dihua Club was finally revealed.
The powerful control over plants allowed them to have unparalleled cheap crops and food, and the rice and various vegetables and fruits they produced won the support of the masses.
"I don't know if Ephesis's men have found those people from Stone Eye." In the original history, Stone Eye and others were not injured so badly after successfully escaping from the palace. That poisonous woman was seriously injured by his poison.
Now I don't know if they will meet that dark Nasha again.
"Is there anyone in the headquarters now?" Garen asked aloud.
"Very few, not many." The child answered honestly.
"Let's go and have a look." If you can meet the dark Nasha guy, it will be just to settle the previous grievances by the way.
