We're Already In Close Combat And You Still Say You're A Mage?

After hearing the old king's words, the princes and princesses below looked at each other, with a hint of imperceptible relaxation in their expressions.

With the phrase "old king", at least in the new king campaign.

Even if he fails, he can survive at the hands of his other brothers and sisters.

As for the follow-up, after the old king passed away.

So it might not be too long, but it's already too late.

They could at least escape the Holy City and find another way out.

........

"You all please step back, I'm tired."

The old king looked back, his eyes a little hollow, he closed his eyes and half leaned on the throne.

After a while, slight snoring came.

Several people left slowly, and in the empty hall, several maids appeared.

Watching the old king sleeping on the throne.

........

After leaving the palace, Xu Bai walked towards the House of Representatives.

But his purpose was not there, but the barracks located behind the House of Representatives.

Although the Royal Forbidden Army is responsible for guarding the safety of the palace on weekdays.

But their station is not inside the palace.

Instead, it is located not far from the palace and is stationed in a military camp behind the House of Representatives in the Holy City.

Xu Bai has learned that there are 6,000 royal guards in total, divided into four groups.

He rotates four times a day and patrols around the capital.

These are the numbers on the surface.

Everyone in the Holy City knows it.

The Royal Imperial Army must have more than 6,000 people.

As for the specific number.

Only the old king and the commander of the imperial army knew.

Xu Bai is still unknown.

........

After walking out of the palace, Xu Bai came to the square in front of the House of Representatives, where hundreds of huge statues of great heroes stood.

While walking among the statues, Xu Bai suddenly saw Chief Consul Sultius standing under the sculpture of King Bach.

Surho was alone, and he was not accompanied by any entourage.

"Hey, old man!"

Xu Bai shouted, without any respect for the chief consul in his words.

Hearing someone shouting, Suerxiu turned around subconsciously.

After discovering that it was Xu Bai, Suerxiu's face showed no anger.

There is no other reason than I am used to it.

"Old man, what are you doing?"

Xu Bai stepped forward and glanced up and down, looking at Su Xiu.

"Waiting for someone."

Su Erxiu was too lazy to talk to Xu Bai.

At this moment, he suddenly saw Princess Arante Percy walking from a distance. He immediately stepped forward to greet her and bowed deeply to Princess Percy.

"king."

Surxiu praised him respectfully.

Completely ignoring Xu Bai standing aside.

As early as just now, when the old king asked several princes and princesses to stay, he had guessed that the competition for the new king was about to begin.

this means.

The connections that several princes and princesses have built over the years, as well as the power in their hands, will be revealed.

As for Soul Xiu himself, his allegiance is to Princess Percy.

........

"Don't call me that, I'm still the princess now."

"There is only one king in Arant now, and that is my father."

"And I will be the future queen."

Percy stopped Suerxiu from calling him a name that transcended his status.

Then, she looked at Xu Bai standing aside, and then at the Star Lion token in Xu Bai's hand.

"dark."

The princess picked up Su Erxiu with both hands and turned to look at Xu Bai, with a gentle smile on her face.

He took two steps forward and stood in front of Xu Bai.

Stretch out your right hand.

Said to him with a smile.

"Yam, will you join me?"
