Blue Sword

Before everyone from Cang Qing Sword could make a plan, the emperor had already sent someone to look for them.

"Looking for me?" Asked.

"Yes, I'm looking for you, Your Excellency Asker." The royal attendant said with a smile on his face.

Following the attendant to the building where the emperor was, the Blade Warrior prepared to remove his weapons. He first took off the sword and battle ax from his waist, then removed the short knife from his forearm and the gun bag from his chest. Another row of throwing knives was found on the inside...

Why does this guy have so many weapons on him!

Following the last assassination case, the Blade Warriors were so careful in their search this time that they almost had to strip Asik naked. In the end, a special person with extraordinary abilities came in and monitored it with some unknown extraordinary ability, and only allowed him to go in after confirming that there was no problem.

Two blade warriors accompanied him on both sides. Once this guy made any move, the two men would immediately subdue him.

The emperor was standing in front of the desk in the study, looking down at the military map of northern Italy. Aske keenly noticed that a large red circle was drawn somewhere on the map. The terrain should be the minefield north of Verona. The exit near the southern foot of the Alps was almost completely blocked.

Sure enough, if you have money these days, you can do whatever you want. The Holy See can put tens of thousands of the emperor's army in a dilemma just by relying on these armaments.

"Are you Aske?" The emperor raised his head.

This young and powerful emperor has blond hair, a high nose, deep eye sockets, and some red skin on his cheeks and neck. He is the kind of Frank old man who looks very rude and upright.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ask nodded slightly. He was not a vassal of the emperor, so there was no need to kneel.

"I've heard about you and your mercenary group." The emperor raised his chin slightly and looked at him with an uncomfortable attitude. "Except for you, they are all young and beautiful women."

"Yes." Asik didn't know how many times he had explained this question, and he immediately answered fluently, "Our team has only two criteria for joining the team: strength or potential. Gender and appearance are not the criteria for joining the team. Standard, as for what you saw is just a coincidence..."

"Ha! No need to hide it. From the first time I saw you, I knew you were the same type as me, full of ambition and possessiveness." The emperor patted the table and laughed, "At least you Unlike those hypocritical dukes who always start with the title 'Your Majesty' when they see me, but in their hearts they think of 'that crazy old Frank man'."

He walked to the wine cabinet next to him: "Want a glass of wine?"

"No, thank you." Ask declined.

The blade warrior next to him was sweating, but the emperor didn't care. He poured himself a glass of red wine, or wine. In short, he couldn't tell what brand of expensive wine it was, and he took a quick sip.

"When I was young," the Emperor said, "I also dreamed of sleeping with many women and having more children, so that I could ensure that at least one of them would grow up to be like me."

"Until my great and respectable father called me one day and said, little Otto, I have arranged a marriage for you. The other party is Miss Theofano from the Eastern Solomon Empire, an absolutely famous family. , absolutely worthy of your status, Barabara."

The sword warriors present were livid and wanted to cut off their ears right away. However, the emperor just continued speaking indifferently:

"So I had to say goodbye to my dream of a harem. Although Theofano gave me four children, one was lost and one died. Only one son and one daughter eventually grew up."

"Then I guess your son must be a lot like you." Asik complimented.

"Haha, flattery is not the style of us Franks. But considering that you are from Constantinople, just like my Theophano, I will forgive you leniently." The emperor's eyebrows trembled, obviously disapproving of him. The flattery is very useful.

"So, in fact, you don't need too many women. For me, although it is difficult to govern an empire, it is much simpler than falling in love with a woman. Even if my wife loves me very much, her thoughts are not 100% I only have about 84% of it, and she gave the remaining 16% to her children."

"This is why my Matilda and Otto will look like me when they grow up. A happy family is the most important guarantee for the healthy growth of children." The emperor winked at him, "And too many Women will only make you care about one thing and not the other. If you can't satisfy your own woman, how can you make your children respect you... You know what I mean."

"I understand." Aske didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but this is nothing!

"Back to business." The emperor said seriously, "Although I still have many doubts about your mercenary group, Duke Weisbach and His Excellency the Dragon of Fantasy are willing to vouch for you, so I can only choose to believe in their vision. Since you have already In our military, we should know what difficulties we face."

"I know, Your Majesty." Ask nodded and said, "The road to Verona is blocked by a minefield."

"It's not just that." The emperor denied his statement, "Our biggest threat is not the minefield, but time... Mr. Asker, we are racing against time. One minute every night to break through the gateway to Italy, One more tank or plane from the Holy See coming off the production line.”

"There is no doubt that this will lead to more Frank soldiers dying in the heat of the war, and it is likely that you and the women around you will be among them. So we need to solve the problem of this minefield as soon as possible, Zemajia Whip, race against time, whether using manual demining mode or going to Venis to find that demigod, do you understand?"

"I understand." Ask said in his heart that I will not do manual demining. It seems that we are going to go to Venis to find the demigods.

"Okay." The emperor nodded and smiled, "You see, the communication between us is very smooth, unlike those hypocritical dukes who always start and end with cumbersome and polite etiquette rhetoric."

His face became serious: "Your team will go to Venis City State for me. No matter what means you use to get that demigod councilor over, I allow you to choose a bottle of Level III potion... Your team is all Lv .8 or above extraordinary person, right? As long as it is a potion that is available in the Saxon family, you can choose it. If it is in other duke's family, as long as you can tell me, I will mediate on your behalf."

The price for a Level III potion is not bad, it is considered a normal price without nepotism. Ask nodded and said:

"I will definitely live up to your expectations, Your Majesty."

"Very good." The emperor said with satisfaction, calling himself "I" instead of "I" again:

"From what I see, your team seems to have no record of mission failures, and I hope this winning streak can continue. Albrecht?"

"I'm here, Your Majesty." A knight walked in from outside the door. He was the knight who was saved by everyone the night the devil changed his mind last time.

"This is Albrecht, a knight from the Wettin family from Thuringia, who will be responsible for escorting you to the city-state of Venis." The emperor whispered, "Although I don't want to have any conflict with the jailer organization, but... …”

"If anyone interferes with your mission, in the name of the empire, you will be killed!"

"Understood." Ask and Albrecht said simultaneously.
