Licinius took a deep breath, he was indeed the former Night's Watchman.
He is really sinister and an absolute pervert.
They actually planned to join forces to deceive the king!
"What do you think of this plan?"
Gravekeeper: "We are two generations of Night's Watch, can we not defeat a mere Majesty?"
What a humble Majesty!
Licinius gave a thumbs-up: "Which side are you on?"
The gravekeeper thought for a moment and said, "Strictly speaking, I only serve this empire and will only implement the most efficient plan. After all, I am a member of the Night's Watch, so sometimes I have to take extraordinary measures. I think, after this war, you should understand the fate of the Night's Watch."
Licinius was silent for a second. It was true.
The duty of the night watchman is to silently contribute to the country and shed blood in the darkness.
But if he wasn't immortal, he might not do that.
"But if I'm discovered, I'll probably be fine."
The gravekeeper said, "You might be in danger."
The crime of deceiving the emperor is not something that everyone can bear.
Licinius imagined that if he were the emperor and was fooled like this, the consequences would be unimaginable.
When the emperor is angry, millions of corpses will be killed and blood will flow for thousands of miles.
However, if he had not awakened at that time, he might have said: I'm sorry, your majesty.
If he was already the Demon King at that time, it would become: I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
You are bullying the king, but I am riding the king.
This is the privilege of the person who gives the liquid!
"You are the Night Watchman of this generation. This decadent empire still needs you to help it shed its rotten outer layer. When you return to the capital, I will arrange a new position for you."
The gravekeeper said calmly, "At the same time, I will secretly operate and hand over some of the dusty files and resources of the Night Watch to you. Regarding the Frostian family, I can only say that this matter is far from as simple as you think, and may involve some very taboo and secret existence."
He reminded her meaningfully, "You need help from the outside world and a strong enough team. This way, it will be easier for you to deal with your family."
Licinius asked curiously, "What position? Which department?"
"You'll know tomorrow. Someone will come to pick you up in person."
The night watchman thought about it and decided not to tell him the news that His Majesty wanted to rehabilitate him for the time being.
No one can stop this, so just let it happen.
At that time, it will be a surprise for this young man.
Let him feel his importance as a subject in the emperor's heart.
Heroes in the darkness will also be remembered.
"That doesn't matter. When I go back this time, I will settle everything. No one can stop me!"
Licinius was so inflated that he seemed to be able to foresee the day when he would be scolded enough to wake up.
Whether it is the aristocratic faction or those independent warlock organizations.
All of them are spicy!
The night watchman felt a little relieved to see how confident he was.
He is worthy of being his successor.
At this time, a cold, tender and tender voice sounded in the underground palace.
Augurola folded his arms across his chest, leaning against the gate of the underground palace, and said leisurely, "It seems that you have finished your discussion? I just went to deal with the escaped logistics members of the Loen Kingdom Army, and by the way, I found a vampire who was bribed by the military advisor. Following this clue, I found some interesting things."
She said with a half-smile: "Well, it's something related to your Brentanian Empire."
Augurola said with interest: "The evidence is currently in the hands of Cyrus. Therefore, Josiam seems to have reached an agreement with the nobles to cleanse Cyrus' memory before he returns to the capital for trial, in order to clear his name."
After hearing this, the gravekeeper was silent for a few seconds.
"normal… "
He said: "It would be really strange if there were no such people in the capital."
Licinius pondered for a moment. "If Cyrus' memory was erased in advance, then he would have excuses for everything he did. The only crime he can be convicted of is disobeying military orders, which caused the Iron Legion to sacrifice three-quarters of its troops and put the entire front at risk of collapse."
"But this crime is far from a death sentence for a sixth-level peak warlock like him. He can even come up with countless excuses to defend himself. With the power of the nobles, he may not receive a severe punishment in the end, and may even continue to be active in the capital."
Augurola hummed, "That's right, and your Majesty probably doesn't have the energy to deal with these things right now. She needs to suppress the power of the World Tree and recover from her injuries."
Li Xini said with emotion: "That's a good idea."
"The most important thing is that they still followed procedural justice."
Augurola said, "Because Cyrus is going to be tried in a military court! The only one who has the right to forcibly intervene in the investigation before he goes to military court is the Administration."
Chapter 115: The New Head of the Administration Bureau
Li Xini hesitated for a moment and said, "The Control Bureau?"
At this moment, he thought of the inspector lady who had a slightly masochistic tendency.
"In your Brentanian Empire, the Administration Bureau can be said to be a behemoth comparable to the military, because they are backed by the Creed Church."
Augurola crossed his arms and pouted, "Unlike the Kingdom of Loen, Loen is a country of mixed races, with numerous city-states and entrenched fiefdoms. It is relatively primitive and barbaric, and our research on magic civilization is not advanced, because we mostly rely on racial talents."
She raised a finger, and a drop of blood condensed on the tip of her finger: "For example, I was born with composite magic. Of course, this is what you humans call it. We prefer to call it instinct. Although not every vampire is as strong as me, most people have their own talents."
Licinius understood, so there was almost no sorcerer organization in the Kingdom of Loen.
On the contrary, in the Brentanian Empire, which is mainly populated by humans, warlocks are everywhere.
For example, the Truth Society and the Creed Church are such organizations.
It is precisely because of the existence of these sorcerer organizations that their power can transcend class, so to a certain extent, they can create a balance between the two major classes of nobility and civilians.
No wonder this empire needs the world tree to exist.
The Warlock Organization constantly draws talented new blood from among the nobles and commoners.
Ensure your own superior position.
At the same time, it also prevented civilian riots or the expansion of unlimited exploitation by the nobility.
As for the royal family's ownership of the World Tree, in a sense it is also a deterrent to these warlock organizations.
In addition, the royal family is cursed by fate. Every emperor must suppress the power of the World Tree. No one can live for more than twenty years, and there can be no such thing as a tyrannical dictatorship.
A delicate balance is achieved between the four.
While this sounds good, as history goes, nothing stays the same.
When someone tries to break this balance, the empire will naturally fall into turmoil.
"The Church of the Creed is probably the oldest warlock organization. It is said that the leader of the church is a demigod. The most powerful assassins in the world often come from this organization."
Augurola said calmly, "The most famous one among them is the current head of the Barron family and the current director of the Administration Bureau, Constance Barron, who is also a sixth-level top warlock. It is said that he was taught by the old man in the Hidden Mountain himself."
Li Xini raised his eyebrows. He really didn't expect that the inspector lady had such a powerful background.
This is considered the top second generation in the empire.
No, it should be considered three generations!
"The problem right now is that no one can guarantee the position of the Administration, right?"
He spread his hands and said, "They have not been taking sides. Their attitude is indeed intriguing."
Augurola shrugged. "That's all the information I can provide you. Since you insist on returning to the capital first, if you can't handle it, the door of Loen Kingdom is always open to you. What I said before still counts. When you become the king of Loen Kingdom, you can naturally deal with them."
Li Xini coughed dryly, how could this woman have no vision!
As expected, Noren puffed up his cheeks and his eyes became suspicious.
Why does this woman seem so nice to the young master
The gravekeeper looked at him and said with a smile: "This is the duty of the Night Watch. The Empire needs people like you to uphold justice and fairness. What are you going to do?"
Licinius fell into deep thought.
Although he felt that he was certain to be cursed for eternity this time.
However, infamy takes time to ferment.
There's no guarantee that nothing bad will happen during this time.
"Fuck, we still have to work."
He was suddenly stunned: "Wait a minute. Teacher, the position you just mentioned, could it be..."
The gravekeeper smiled without saying anything, a playful curve gradually appearing on his lips.
Everyone was stunned and understood.
"You really like to keep people in suspense."
Augurola's beautiful eyes flashed with realization, and then she said sarcastically, "If I'm not mistaken, you convinced Constance to let your successor go to the Control Bureau?"
The gravekeeper smiled and said, "Not only that, my heir possesses the power to change the world. What I really want him to contact is the Creed Church behind the Administration. Josiah wants to reach out to the Warlock Organization and use their power to deal with Your Majesty."
"Then we naturally can't just sit there and do nothing. After all, they were the ones who broke the rules first."
He turned around and looked at the silver-haired boy. "Are you ready? Constance is not so easy to convince. At present, I just let him give you a chance, but you still need to show your talent and strength in person to conquer those assassins in the dark world."
Li Xini complained: "You really know how to find things for me to do."
"If you want to conquer those warlocks, your hot weapons are the best way." said the gravekeeper.
Licinius thought about it and decided that if that was the case, then he needed to make preparations in advance.
"That, Augurola."
He turned around and asked, "Can you help me draw out all the blood and tissue in my body?"
Augurola already had a psychological trauma and couldn't help asking, "What are you going to do now?"
"Make something good."
Li Xini stretched lazily and murmured to himself, "The aura of Annihilation is a good thing and cannot be wasted."

The royal capital, the headquarters of the administrative bureau.
Snapped!
Luciemia slammed the table, her full chest heaving violently, her pretty face as cold as frost: "Why don't you let me investigate? I have been investigating all the way from Roma City to the capital, and finally caught the tail of those black magic users. Why do you want me to stop the investigation now? Do you know how serious this matter is?"
She grabbed a large stack of documents, threw them on the desk, and said coldly: "The capital, even the Holy Trinity Seminary, there are shadows of these black magicians! They may even be collaborating with the enemy and committing treason!"
Jasmine poked her head out from the shadow under the table, her eyes confused.
"I'm sorry, miss."
A female officer said, "This is an order from Lord Constance."
This was a rather young woman with a pretty and heroic face. She was wearing a black, straight military uniform. She had a tall and slender figure, black hair draped over her back, and a rapier tied around her waist.
There was also a short and fat officer in the back, with a humble and flattering expression on his face.
"My father's orders?"
Lucimia asked coldly, "Amber, what's going on?"
The female officer named Amber was silent for a second, then shook her head and said, "I'm not too sure either. It was said that the director personally issued the order to demote all inspectors within the bureau, including us."
Lucimia was stunned: "What? We were demoted?"
The short and fat officer came over and said in a low voice, "It's like this, Miss. I got a rumor that several inspectors, including us, will be demoted, and changes will be made within the Administration. The several teams that all of us inspectors are in charge of will be disbanded and reorganized into four new inspection departments."
"We belong to the First Inspection Department, and we will welcome a new director in a few days."
He whispered, "That is, the boss of all of us."
