Chapter 266 Father and Son
The night was dark, and the wind howled, like some mysterious creature roaring in a low voice, which made people feel chills.

In the splendid and majestic palace, there are no bright lights like in the past, only a few candles, jumping and shaking in the wind, illuminating people's faces with shadows and shadows, and the light and shade are uncertain.

"Father, haven't you made up your mind yet?" Prince Andre's voice sounded a little hurried.

In the palace, there are only the king and his son at this time.

King Beckenbauer's face was gloomy and his mood was irritable: "Does this have to be so? The soldiers in front are fighting bloody battles, but we... do this, no matter what the result is, the morale of the army and the people will be lost. All buried. This... oh~"

Prince Andre's eyes flickered, and he said: "The army of my glorious empire marched forward triumphantly, and conquered the territory of the Riga Empire. It is the credit of all the soldiers of the army, and it cannot be attributed to Anthony alone. The morale of our army is now very high. , and after the baptism of war, the strength and morale have long been different. Even without Anthony, under the leadership of other generals, the Riga Empire can still be defeated."

His Majesty was silent.

Prince Andre continued: "Speaking of ten thousand steps back, even if the war ends here, under the auspices of the justice of the Holy See of Light and the Holy Empire, all the territory we occupy will be owned by the Brilliant Empire. Such a feat of expanding the territory , completed in the hands of my father, is enough to comfort the ancestors of my Alexandra family. In the future history books of the empire, I will definitely write a heavy stroke for my father."

His Majesty the King hesitated, and said: "If it is possible, I still don't want to do this. Our empire is now very strong, and the previous mighty Riga Empire is nothing to worry about. If there is no such thing, you and I can see it with our own eyes. Watching the mighty rise of the glorious empire."

King Beckenbauer frowned and let out another long sigh.

The number of times he sighed recently has been comparable to when he was forced to be cornered by the Riga Empire.You know, now the Brilliant Empire has won a big victory all the way, and has invaded the border of the Riga Empire.

The corner of Prince Andre's mouth curled up, and it looked a little weird: "Father, according to the latest information, our army and the Riga Empire Marshal Banks met for a battle. According to the time calculation, it is estimated that the fight has already begun."

"What?" His Majesty the King was shocked and stared at him, "How do you know?"

The battle on the front line is progressing smoothly, and various battle reports and successes are constantly being sent back.However, due to the long distances, the information will inevitably lag behind.King Beckenbauer gave Anthony great power, allowing him to act freely and cheaply, which is also an important factor.

Since the removal of domestic obstacles, the channel for messengers to and from has been extremely smooth, and the speed has also been greatly improved.But as the head of a country, Beckenbauer didn't even get the first-hand information. How did Prince Andre know it?
"Father, the news was told by people from the Holy See of Light." Andre said indifferently.

It is the Holy See of Light again.

His Majesty the King did not speak, but his heart sank slightly.My own son has recently gotten a little too close to the people of the Holy See of Light.

Andre's next words were even more like a blockbuster, stunned His Majesty the King.

"The Holy See of Light has set up a portal in our empire. Not to mention the transmission of information, even the remote transfer of the army is instantaneous."

"What did you say? When did this happen? Why don't I know?"

King Beckenbauer asked three consecutive questions like a cannonball, his face full of horror and fear.

No wonder His Majesty the King was surprised. The Holy See of Light possessed space magic and was able to construct portals. This was not just a simple matter of making message transmission and communication faster, and people coming and going more frequently.

Because it is still a big killer.

Think about it, inside the heavily fortified checkpoint fortress, behind the army waiting in full swing, in the imperial city, the center of the empire, if an elite army suddenly appeared, the consequences would be absolutely disastrous.

Although there are still limitations due to the consumption of the architecture and the throughput of the portal, the rich and powerful Holy See cannot use this big killer too casually.But its important role is still the envy of any country.At the same time, they are also on guard against the Holy See of Light.

Now I heard that the Guangming Holy See has built a portal inside the empire, and judging by his son's expression, the location may be near the imperial capital, or even within the imperial capital.

Thinking of the existence of a back door around him, and a powerful army could break in from the door anytime and anywhere, how could His Majesty the King sit still, how could he not be terrified!

If the opponent was not his own son, King Beckenbauer looked at Andre's nonchalant appearance, and almost couldn't resist drawing his sword and killing him.

Such behavior is not much different from betraying the country.

Prince Andre seemed to know his father's anger, but he was not in a hurry to defend himself. He just took out a thin piece of paper and handed it to him without saying a word.

His Majesty the King held back his anger, but still reached out to take it, and looked down.

"Sword of the God of Light", "Judgment", Cardinal, Cardinal...

The "Sword of the God of Light" troops of the Holy See of Light are shockingly powerful, and King Beckenbauer has already heard of them. Although "Judgment" has never been heard of, but it can be put together with "Sword of the God of Light", and it seems to be a similar or even more powerful and mysterious existence.As for the archbishop in red, the cardinal, etc., they are high-level figures in the Holy See, and their strengths are all top martial arts masters on the fourth level.

But what His Majesty the King didn't understand was what did Andre mean by showing him the list?
Is it...

"This is part of the power that the Holy See of Light came to my glorious empire from the portal to arrest and rule the heresy Anthony."

To King Beckenbauer's ears, his son's voice sounded sinister, as if it came from the Nine Nether Abyss, and it also confirmed the bad guess in his heart.

Prince Andrei looked at his father with an aggressive gleam in his eyes.

"Father, do you still want to protect that Anthony and fight against the Holy See of Light, which represents the entire Holy Empire? For him alone, drag all the nobles, civilians, and soldiers of my glorious empire into a hopeless war vortex , and even push our empire to its end. Is this really worth it?"

His Majesty, holding the piece of paper in his hand, felt that the thin piece of paper was as heavy as a mountain.Each word on it represented a palpitatingly powerful force, which made him unable to breathe.

In order to deal with a mere young man, the Holy See of Guangming has gone so far and dispatched such a huge armed force. Why?
Although Andre had said before that the Holy See was hostile to Anthony, King Beckenbauer didn't take it too seriously.

Anthony is only a teenager, how much hatred can he have with a behemoth like the Holy See of Light.Racial forces like the Li Clan and the Dwarf Clan, which were once opposed to the Holy See in history, are now grandly returning to the mainland stage, and they have not seen any violent reactions.For Anthony, the most he can do is seize the opportunity to suppress and teach him a lesson, so what else?

But what he saw and heard today terrified His Majesty the King.

The power dispatched by the Holy See of Light is very confident even if it overthrows the relatively empty imperial capital.If the thief is captured first, and he wants to assassinate himself... His Majesty the King felt a cold war in his heart.

But if he were to plan to deal with Anthony, how could he turn the tide, a talented young man who had made great contributions to him and the glorious empire, and he had a good impression of him, and was regarded as his future son-in-law?

"Let me think about it again."

His Majesty the King turned around, his figure was quite lonely.He still held the piece of paper tightly in his hand, as if he didn't dare to throw it away casually.

Prince Andre looked at his father as if he had aged all of a sudden, without the respect and admiration of the past in his eyes, he just sneered from the bottom of his heart.

He firmly believed that no matter how reluctant his father was, he would eventually have to agree.
