Chapter 191 Return


    For Duanmuhuai, this prison riot trip was just a small warm-up. Although the final result was a bit unexpected, it ended perfectly anyway.


    Of course, this matter does not end there. According to the results of Petra''s investigation, the awakened person seems to be the younger brother of the queen of their clan, and it is very likely that something happened to make it like this. Therefore, Petra is also very anxious and plans to ask the guardians to investigate... Well, as you can imagine, this is another branch of the task.


    ?But Duanmuhuai has no time to care about this now, so at this moment, he has led his Tribunal fleet and returned to the novice planet again.


    “Huh, it looks like it’s quite late.”


    ?Looking at the calm state of the planet in front of him, Duanmuhuai breathed a sigh of relief. Then he turned on the screen, looked at the scenery in front of him, and began to look for the target.


    The first was Carcassonne, the capital of Bretonnia. Duanmuhuai adjusted the screen and stared at the city of the Kingdom of Knights above. He saw an ordinary girl in front of a small jewelry shop on a quiet street. She was sprinkling water, and judging from her appearance, she was already quite skilled at this job.


    Immediately afterwards, Duanmuhuai saw an old man driving a carriage filled with goods to the door of the shop and said hello to the girl. The latter also waved to the old man happily, then turned around and said something to the shop. , then Duanmuhuai saw the elf scout come out and began to carry the goods with the old man.


    “I’m living a pretty good life.”


    Looking at the scene in front of him, Duanmu Huai also raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile. For Duanmu Huai, after experiencing so many things, it has been a while since he traveled to this world, but he still will not forget what happened when he just traveled here. Although Alyssa is a good child, she and The world he lived in was too different, and Duanmu Huai had no intention of dragging such an ordinary girl into his battle with the evil god. In his opinion, living an ordinary life like this was more suitable for this girl.


    After all, given her status, returning to the empire would only be more embarrassing.


    ?Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai turned the camera again to another location.


    Mordheim.


    ??This once cursed city seems to have regained a bit of vitality and vitality. Duanmuhuai can see that the originally dilapidated city has begun to be rebuilt, and the streets have become more popular. However, Duanmu Huai also saw that the place seemed to be heavily guarded and the atmosphere was a bit tense. Although he didn''t know what happened, it was obviously not a good thing.


    As for Altdorf, the imperial capital...huh?


    To Duanmuhuai''s surprise, he not only saw the flag of the empire on Altdorf''s side, but also the flags of the elves and Bretonnia... It was rare to see these forces gathered together. This was unexpected. What happened?


    ?Hmm... Anyway, just go and have a look and you will find out.


    ?Soon, Duanmuhuai took Ogis to the Royal City of Altdorf again.


    Although his costume was ridiculous, the guard responsible for guarding allowed him to enter the castle and sent someone to inform His Majesty the King - after all, Duanmu Huai was considered a hero who saved Altdorf from the cultists, and he was originally His features were so obvious that it was impossible to disguise them, and the king had given him preferential treatment in this regard. So Duanmu Huai entered the castle without encountering any obstacles.


    Not only that, he also met an acquaintance.


    “Oh? Isn’t this Your Excellency the Knight? It’s been such a long time!”


    "Who are you………"


    Looking at the man in front of him, Duanmu Huai thought for a moment.


    “General Pastor?”


    "Hahaha, I didn''t expect that the knight would still remember me..."


    “It’s almost hard to tell. After all, you’ve changed a lot.”


    As Duanmuhuai spoke, he looked curiously at General Pastor in front of him. Of course, he had not forgotten the general who was in charge of the command in Mordheim and even planned to wear a yellow robe. However, he was not as skinny as the one at that time. Different from other men, General Pastor now has a rosy complexion, looks much energetic, and even has gained weight - you can even see his protruding belly.


    “Hahaha, I haven’t exercised recently...”


    ?Perceiving Duanmuhuai''s gaze, General Paster smiled bitterly. Duanmuhuai naturally didn''t care about such a trivial matter, so he started chatting with General Paster.


    ?According to General Pastor, he lived a pretty good life after that. Although his ability was not very good, he showed his loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor that night. So after that, General Pastor''s position and title were also upgraded one level. Of course, General Pastor did not live up to His Majesty the Emperor''s high expectations and has been working diligently.


    And Duanmu Huai also inquired about what happened in the empire after that, and it was basically the same as what the emperor told him at the beginning. On that night, the emperor''s three heirs were all executed for colluding with the evil god, and colluded with the three princes. The nobles were also implicated, a large number of nobles were dealt with, and new people were promoted.


    Of course, the emperor''s tough approach naturally caused uneasiness among the lords everywhere. However, when the emperor proposed the elector system, the signs that these lords were about to move were immediately suppressed - anyone who is not a fool can see that this system It is not limited to the royal family as before. All lords are even qualified to become emperors... although at their own age, it is very likely that they will have to retire with the old emperor.


    But their heirs still have a chance!


    ?As a result, these lords quickly calmed down and obeyed the emperor''s instructions obediently. As a result, a domestic political crisis was subsided.


    “The empire is currently relatively stable, and this is all thanks to the blessings of the knights...”


    ?Speaking of this, General Pastor also respectfully expressed his gratitude to Duanmu Huai. When he thought of what would have happened to Altdorf once those princes who colluded with the evil **** came to power, or even if Duanmu Huai and others had not stopped him that night, he couldn''t help but take a breath. The reason why the entire empire can be so peaceful now is precisely Because of what Duanmu Huai did, he not only eliminated the followers of the evil god, but also eradicated the vampires in the original territory of the empire... If not, I don''t know what the current empire would be like. .


    “There is no need to say these kind words.”


    ? Duanmu Huai waved his hand and then changed the topic.


    "By the way, is there any festival recently? I also saw the flags of Bretonnia and other countries... Is there any event?"


    "Hey? Lord Knight, don''t you know yet?" "Oh, I just came back from abroad, and I don''t know the situation here yet."


    “Actually, it’s not a secret…”


    General Pastor didn''t care about Duanmuhuai''s excuses, and quickly explained the current situation to Duanmuhuai.


    ?After Duanmu Huai left, the entire empire experienced a period of stability because the forces colluding with the evil gods were dealt with and the vampires entrenched in the empire''s territory were also eliminated. However, the good times did not last long. Just over a year later, various crises began to appear all around.


    ??First of all, the Chaos army from the north gathered to launch an attack southward. If it had been an empire that was suffering from internal and external troubles, it would have been doomed long ago. Fortunately, this time the empire was internally stable and therefore blocked the attack of the Chaos army. However, Kislev, another country located on the northern border of the empire, was not so lucky. Under the attack of the Chaos army, they barely resisted for a while before completely collapsing. Finally, with the rescue of the empire, they led the remaining troops to evacuate.


    Not only that, at the same time, a civil war broke out in Bretonnia, which was separated by a mountain from the empire. Although the civil war eventually ended, Bretonnia was also severely damaged. Not only that, in the southern part of the empire, the Skaven began to uncharacteristically become riotous and launched attacks on various southern territories.


    Even the elves were not spared. I heard that the dark elves in the north, which were confronting the high elves, were also attacked by the Chaos army. It can be said that this wave is equivalent to the Chaos army moving south collectively and starting to attack the border of civilization.


    Because the situation was urgent, representatives from Bretonnia and Kislev, plus the elves, came to the empire to discuss forming a coalition to fight.


    It has indeed begun.


    After listening to General Pastor''s words, Duanmu Huai also frowned. He did not participate in the war at the End of Time, but he also learned from the posts of players on the forum that the sign of the beginning of the End of Time was the chaotic dance of demons. All kinds of monsters and monsters came out to show their presence.


    ?Now it seems that the development of the situation is as mentioned in the forum post, so it seems that I have come back at the right time.


    “Sorry to bother you.”


    ?At this moment, a guard ran over panting, looked at Duanmu Huai and bowed respectfully.


    "You must be Your Excellency, the Knight of National Salvation. Your Majesty wants to see you, please come with me."


    It is too exaggerated to say that this title is too exaggerated.


    Hearing the other party''s title, Duanmu Huai complained helplessly in his heart, but he still nodded, and then walked into the castle with Ogis under the leadership of the guards, and then came to the king''s study.


    “Hey, long time no see.”


    ?Sitting behind the desk is none other than Kevin—or should we call him Emperor Carl Franz. He put down his quill, looked at Duanmu Huai with a smile, and said hello to him.


    “Speaking of which, why did the armor on your body become like this?”


    “It’s cute, I quite like it.”


    “Hahahaha, as expected of you.”


    The emperor also laughed at Duanmu Huai''s answer and didn''t take it seriously - after all, he was a man who took "Pink Bunny" as the name of his battle group. It was not surprising that he painted his armor in this color.


    “Speaking of which, where have you been? I’ve been sending people to look for you.”


    “I went on an overseas adventure and just came back.”


    “Oh? Is it fun to go overseas?”


    “It’s not interesting, it’s just boring things.”


    Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders, and then sat on the stone bench that the emperor asked his attendants to bring for him.


    “Since your Majesty sent someone to look for me, does that mean something is wrong?”


    "Of course, I think you should have some understanding of the current situation in the empire."


    “I’ve heard a little bit about it. I heard that the rat people and the Chaos army are now starting to wreak havoc.”


    "Yes."


    When he mentioned this topic, the emperor''s face suddenly straightened.


    “In fact, according to our investigation, this change in the Chaos Army is likely to be related to one person.”


    “Oh? Who is it?”


    “The Eternal Chosen One—Archaon.”
