Old Neil was silent for a second. "The commander-in-chief is indeed missing, and even that girl is no longer in the barracks. All the alchemical resources prepared for the commander-in-chief are also gone."
Everyone's expression changed. At such a critical moment, the commander disappeared!
This gave all of them a bad feeling!
The empress lowered her head and said softly, "Really?"
At the door of the military tent, Lieutenant Colonel Mary was tied up, with a musket pointed at her head. She lowered her head in cold sweat, but at this moment she couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty! Please believe that we are really going to stop that military advisor! We have nothing to do with him, we are enemies!"
She lied with her eyes open, and said in panic: "Someone must have provided false information to sow discord! We have evidence, and it's in my pocket!"
Cyrus has been severely injured and imprisoned, and now she must find a way to protect herself.
Everyone looked towards His Majesty at the end of the long table.
The empress hummed.
Someone immediately stepped forward and took out a crystal ball from the lieutenant colonel's body.
With just a slight injection of magic power, the crystal ball released a soft light.
In the light, one can vaguely see a figure wearing an iron demon mask and clad in a red cloud and black robe.
There was also a charming lady with long cherry-colored hair, who seemed to be whispering something in his ear.
The two people seem to be very close!
In the corner, the night watchmen's faces changed drastically.
Especially Tria and Hayden, their eyes were full of disbelief.
"Augurola!"
Red Dragon was startled and spoke in a lost voice: "Your Majesty! Commander-in-Chief... No, there is something wrong with that Xiao! He actually colluded with Augurola! This is treason!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's heart was gripped with fear.
Faced with a powerful enemy, the commander-in-chief colluded with the enemy and committed treason.
It was undoubtedly a devastating blow to morale.
It also undermined the self-confidence of these superiors.
It was the commander-in-chief who brought them high-nutrition and high-calorie military rations.
It was the commander-in-chief who brought them the ultimate weapon on the battlefield, seventy-two Titan cannons.
He was also the commander-in-chief, who turned the tide and single-handedly stopped two top warlocks.
He led them to win almost impossible battles time and time again.
But now, the commander-in-chief has committed treason
Tria, Hayden and others are the most unacceptable. There must be some hidden story behind this.
However, the next moment, someone reported in front of the camp.
"Your Majesty! Jeanne Legris, from the Inquisition, and two brave men request to see you."
The subordinate reported: "They claimed that they found someone performing a black magic ritual seven kilometers southwest of the military camp. It was exactly the same as the death row prisoner sacrifice case that happened in Roma City. It was done by the same person. Although the face of the heretic was not clearly seen, his accomplice is... the Blood Duke, Augurola!"
He paused and said, "And that heretic will also use a terrifying red bombardment!"
boom!
a bolt from the blue…
Tria felt her mind go blank, as if struck by lightning.
"How is that possible?" Hayden murmured.
The black magic sacrifice ceremony seven kilometers away was the alchemical matrix set up by the two of them themselves.
Licinius was there, completing the black magic ritual.
The Inquisition did not know the captain's true identity, so it was impossible for them to fabricate facts and frame him.
Because they couldn't be sure that Xiao was a black magician.
In the report just now, the people from the Inquisition did not say who the heretic was.
In other words, it is not about framing others, nor is it about throwing mud.
These people from the Inquisition did see it, and even described the details very accurately, such as the horrific red bombardment seven kilometers to the southwest, details that they could not have fabricated.
There is only one answer.
The person the Inquisition saw was the captain.
And now, the captain is actually staying with the Blood Duke!
"If it was Cyrus and the members of Dawn, then it must be a malicious frame-up."
Tria thought bitterly, "But, but even the people from the Inquisition..."
"I see. No wonder a black magician like him could defeat two top warlocks alone! How could this be possible? They are simply in the same group!" said the Red Dragon angrily.
The ironclad facts are before our eyes.
It is very likely that Licinius was a traitor to his country.
Noren’s disappearance is the best proof!
As they were immersed in the dream, the atmosphere in the camp became as silent as death.
Some are confused, some are sad, and some are angry.
The empress was silent for a long time, then said softly, "I understand. You can all leave first. As for the guests from the Inquisition, I will go see them after I have a short rest."
She whispered, "Now, leave."
Old Neil has been with Her Majesty for many years and knows her character very well.
One can even sense the confusion and anxiety in His Majesty's heart at this moment.
He waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow him out.
Only the empress was left in the military tent.
Looks a little lonely.
Snapped!
The communication mirror fell to the ground and shattered.
"Why didn't you contact me? Why didn't you respond to me? Where did you go? What were you going to do?"
The empress murmured, "Teacher, come out for me."
I saw a golden light pouring down from the darkness, and the projection of the World Tree appeared out of thin air.
The gravekeeper stood under the tree and looked at her calmly.
"what happened?"
The empress said coldly: "Don't tell me you don't know."
Now, all the evidence points to the young man collaborating with the enemy and committing treason.
Missing without reason...
Lost contact for no reason...
The disappearance of Norn and the disappearance of those alchemical resources.
Including all the details given by the Inquisition.
The evidence provided by the Dawn members became extremely convincing.
The gravekeeper smiled and said, "Will you believe what I say? You are the emperor, and suspicion is the basis of the emperor's mentality. Although you followed my advice at first, you discovered him yourself in the end. You admired him and chose to trust him. He did not disappoint you and let you see the dawn of victory."
He said slowly: "But now you doubt him again, so have you ever thought about this day? I think you must have thought about it, otherwise you are not worthy of sitting on the throne of emperor."
"So if it really came to that, you would kill him."
The empress fell into silence and said nothing.
She does have that ability.
She is the emperor. For the sake of the country and the people, she cannot help but leave herself a way out.
Even though the World Tree went berserk and she was severely injured, she still retained the strength to fight.
At least one level six person can be killed.
If Licinius was really plotting something, she would strike him down with force.
However, her heart was in so much pain.
It's so unbelievable.
Or rather, unwilling to believe it.
That boy will really betray this country.
Betray her...
The surging anger and sadness were like a raging wave, seemingly about to drown her.
The gravekeeper asked again: "But do you really understand your subject? In the process of getting along with him, have you really seen his heart? Your Majesty, do you really understand the human heart?"
The empress was stunned.
"You are still too young. I can teach you everything, but there is only one thing I cannot teach you."
The gravekeeper said: "If you can't see through the heart of your subject, then you are not worthy to be his king."
The empress suddenly raised her head, revealing her fair face covered with golden lines, and asked coldly: "What did Licinius tell you? Tell me!"
The gravekeeper took out a letter from his arms.
The empress reached out to grab it, but he dodged it.
"It is not time to open the letter yet, Your Majesty."
The gravekeeper said, "He only asked me to convey one sentence to you."
A fierce golden light burst out from the empress's beautiful yet terrifying eyes.
The gravekeeper said softly, "He said that you are the best emperor in the world. He is very happy and grateful to have worked with you. So please believe that no matter what decision you make to fulfill your duties, it is the right one. He will continue to support you and believe in you."
The empress was slightly startled.
"What on earth is he...doing?"
The gravekeeper said calmly: "He is doing something that no one else can do."
The empress stared at the young man or old man, her long, curled eyelashes trembling slightly.
She suddenly remembered something.
How did the teacher die
"You are the emperor. You must perform your duties at all times."
The gravekeeper said: "Now, declare him a traitor."

"Mm, comfortable."
Augurola narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. All the injuries on his body had healed and he was back to his peak!
Her fair cheeks still retained the afterglow and blush of the enjoyment, and her beautiful eyes were misty and deep.
When he looked at the young man again, his eyes had changed.
It was as if I saw the most precious treasure in the world.
"Hey, why can't you die? Don't act so pretentiously in front of me. I can feel it from your blood. You are very young, no more than eighteen years old!"
Her beautiful eyes curved into crescents, and she said with a smile, "Come on, call me sister!"
Although she had sucked the blood of a boy who was much younger than her and had enjoyed touching him all over, she felt very ashamed and embarrassed.
But when she came to her senses, she wanted to tease back!
