Reject me, you damn woman.

"read more books."

Quinn:........

Although I am not a serious person, it is a strange experience to be criticized for being uneducated by my mother, who is generally recognized as a wild woman.

However, instead of explaining such a troublesome matter to her daughter verbally, the empress just pointed casually, and the holy test space that was originally floating in front of the empress appeared in front of Quinn.

Quinn's mental power seemed to automatically connect with this wonderful creation, as if she could control it as she wished.

Quinn looked at the holy test space around him in disbelief.

So silky!

It was as if it was completed in an instant.

There was no sense of sluggishness during the process, whether it was the holy test space being projected to her side or the transfer of control.

At this time, looking at her surprised daughter, the empress gave a faint explanation:

"I understand your fallacy, but you underestimated the potential of the Holy Test Space created by the original Purple Gold Flower Master and the legendary Elf Array Master."

"The so-called Holy Trial Space, from the very beginning, is not bound to a certain person with the blood of the Dragon Blood Royal Family, but to everyone."

Everyone?!

Quinn finally caught up with the Empress and Lynn's thoughts.

It is not a holy test that binds the emperor himself, but all members of the Dragon Blood Royal Family. In other words, as long as the empress wants, can't this holy test space instantly cross a distance of thousands of miles and reach Lin En's side?

But this alone is not enough.

Just as Quinn worried, a temporary holy test would not be able to help Lin En face a possible eighth-ring strongman. What he needed was more immediate and effective help.

For ordinary people, even if they have the blood of the Norton royal family, this is the limit of what they can do.

After all, even a demigod is still within the realm of human beings, and there are limits to what they can do.

The only person who can directly change the situation of a country on the other side of the continent from a distance is probably a god who has completely stopped being a human being and only exists in legends.

But the empress is an exception.

Because she is neither an ordinary demigod nor an ordinary descendant of the Norton royal family.

Despite her frail body and unremarkable red dragon bloodline, she managed to pass seven holy tests. She was blessed by seven previous kings and was recognized as the most comprehensive demigod ever, which naturally included her auxiliary position.

Because among the seven blessings, one of them is named - [Blessing of the Yellow King].

This special blessing of the king has only two powers in simple terms: to give and to deprive.

Deprive, and even forcibly strip away the power of fellow demigods, forcing them to become barbarians and fight with themselves.

Similarly, the Empress can also bestow upon anyone or anything, even a stone on the roadside, enough power to penetrate the demigod's defense.

On the throne, the empress raised her slender white right hand, and her golden eyes had turned into cold vertical pupils because of the boiling dragon blood.

At the same time, the entire hall was shaking, and unparalleled power gathered in her palms.

That is the power of the empress at the demigod level.

Now, she is "granting" her power, and the object of her granting is the holy test space itself.

The pouring torrent of energy instantly filled the Holy Test Space formed by the superposition of countless spells. The Holy Test Space filled with energy trembled as if cheering, but Quinn had a feeling that as long as she wanted, as the current binder of the Holy Test Space, she could easily call upon that energy for her own use.

After all, the bestowed energies are ownerless, which means that anyone can take them as they please.

So that's how it was. She finally understood the bold plan of her mother and brother.

This was a terrifying plan that would have frightened the kingdom's highly respected high priest to death.

Even a bastard like Quinn who had no moral bottom line did not dare to attack the Holy Test Space, but these two reckless men planned to use the Holy Test Space as a transportation vehicle and throw the demigod-level power directly onto Lin En.

If Lin En were to be defeated or captured, the treasure that had maintained the stability of the Norton royal family for a thousand years, and the Holy Test Space would be at risk of being lost or even taken away.

This is really... so exciting!

Of course Quinn would not inform on her mother and brother. Not only that, she would do her best to keep this plan going. Quinn really wanted to see what kind of opponent could force Lin En to use such a powerful weapon.

She was really hoping that her brother could make some big news to please her.

Last time, he was able to play around and kill a weakened Huandi with the help of numerous assistances, but this time, maybe he could really defeat a powerful Huandi demigod himself.

Just imagining it, Quinn's face flushed with excitement.

However, I don’t know if it’s just my illusion.

Perhaps it was because after entering a temporary binding state with the Holy Test Space, the connection between the two parties also deepened.

After injecting demigod-level power into the Holy Test Space for the Empress, she seemed to hear a leaping and cheering heartbeat coming from the Holy Test Space, as if something was gestating in it and was about to break out of its cocoon.

But soon, Quinn's attention was diverted by the words of the empress:

"Anyway, that's it. According to the agreement between the two of us, I will not go to that country myself, but will send this power there. This way, I can provide effective help to the child while also avoiding touching the fragile nerves of some incompetent guys to the greatest extent possible."

The empress who had completed all this seemed a little tired, and... a little annoyed?

"Do you seem dissatisfied with my brother's plan?"

Quinn asked curiously.

"After all, there will certainly be dissatisfaction regarding the Holy Test Space."

The empress snorted.

Quinn nodded. It was understandable that she had to accompany her son and go out to play with the national treasure. Even a mother would...

However, the empress was quite dissatisfied and even naggingly said:

"I asked him if I should have Reinhardt lead the Northern Army to the northern border just in case. I promised him that it was just a show, but he said it was too much trouble for others and refused me. He even dared to criticize me for being too radical."

"If you ask me, it's the gentleness of the Rose Country that corrupted that kid and made him weak. What's the problem? Anyway, the old lion in the north is already his father-in-law..."

Quinn: ......

The Silver Dragon's daughter swore that this was the last time she would guess the thoughts of her two reckless husbands.

But speaking of the Duke of the North, Quinn remembered one more thing:

"Mother, have you already told my brother about the engagement?"

The empress, who was still complaining, suddenly stopped.

Then, she said confidently:

"I forgot."

Quinn opened her mouth, but in the end no words came out.

However, when I was talking about the engagement with the empress, I didn’t know if it was an illusion, but the holy test space around me seemed to... tremble again?

........

In Rose City, in front of the Black Doctor Clinic.

After ensuring that Lambert and Granny were safe and would receive further proper treatment, Lynn took Elena and left the Shadow Knight's base.

Historia has not yet recovered from the shock that Lin En had just brought to her. The stupid princess, who had lost the ability to think, seemed to have her eyes turned into two spinning mosquito coils, and she looked at Lin En with an extremely resentful look.

"You're almost there, right? Didn't I specifically ask you and only made the crystal after you agreed?"

Lin En, who felt a little nervous after being stared at, said dissatisfiedly.

"But you didn't say you would directly invite His Majesty to come in!"

Lin En shrugged and did not comment on the princess's rebuttal.

Historia had already buried her face in her palms powerlessly.

Woo!

He actually personally approved the prince of another country to bring the empress of another country to participate in the imperial election.

I won't become the eternal sinner who caused the Fire Rose's imperial capital, Rose City, to change its name and fall into Norton City!

If this goes on, let alone my living father and sister Hedwig, even if I die I won’t be able to see my ancestors!

After patting her desperate friend on the back as a consolation, Elena stood on Lin En's side as always:

"Student Lin En, what are you going to do next?"

Inviting the Empress as external aid sounds like a huge advantage, but if you think about it carefully, after completely breaking off relations with His Highness Zevis, Lin En's side is still at a disadvantage.

The empress cannot take action every day. At most, she can only take preventive measures when the opponent's demigod takes action. The two sides can be considered to have offset their supreme combat power.

But if we compare the remaining forces, Lin's camp, or the Historia camp, is actually still not optimistic.

Apart from the fact that Granny accidentally killed a suspected high-level arcanist from the other side, there didn't seem to be anything commendable about them.

And even if Lin En himself is very strong, he can't do everything by himself.

However, since their side did not take the other side seriously from the beginning, they did not even know how much hidden power and strength the prince had.

Facing Elena's concern, Lin En just shook his head:

"Thank you for your concern, Elena. But in my opinion, my point of view is exactly the opposite of yours. The guy killed by Granny may have some power that we don't understand. He may not be dead."

Elena frowned even deeper. Doesn't this mean that their final results were in vain?

But then Lin En smiled lightly:

"However, I did say that we are at war with His Highness Zevis and his clown friends, but I don't think I promised to fight him in a one-on-one duel, right?"

Seeing Lin En skillfully taking out a stack of communication magic stones, a small question mark appeared above Elena's head.

.........

At the same time, in the hiding place of the fifth prince Zevis, a man in black robe who seemed to be much thinner than in the theater pushed open the door, walked into the messy study of His Royal Highness the Prince, and frowned under his stiff black robe.

This place looked like a parking lot that had been destroyed by a tornado. Things on the table were scattered all over the floor, a bookshelf was knocked over, and even the typewriter was picked up and thrown out. It hit the ground and the outer shell shattered, revealing the magic circuit inside.

The fifth prince himself sat in his seat, his hands crossed, breathing heavily, and said nothing.

"You seem to be very angry. Did the talk with the prince not go well?"

The man in black robe sat down in the seat opposite the prince and asked.

Zevis was stunned for a moment, and looked at the black-robed man opposite him:

"How did you become a woman?"

The voice from under the black robe just now was not the male voice from before, but a somewhat soft female voice.

"The previous body had an accident and died again. Don't pay attention to that detail. You should know that gender has no meaning to me. What we are discussing now is your failure."

The black-robed man resumed his cold voice and said,

In response, the prince just snorted:

"You died only because of your incompetence. I told you to just kill those two bugs. It was you who had to use such a dilatory method that led to your counterattack. As for the negotiation with that bastard Norton, we didn't expect it to succeed from the beginning, right?"

The black-robed man only responded with silence, while Xervis regained his composure and chuckled as usual:

"Yes, I must admit that the prince had a slight advantage in this confrontation, but that was just some meaningless verbal advantage. In my opinion, it was just proof of the incompetence and rage of our Lord Norton."

He raised his eyebrows:

"After all, besides using that little trick to humiliate me, what else can he do? The prince of Purple Gold Flower may be able to call the shots in his country, but this is not his country. He can neither save his friends nor really kill you. He can't even pretend to be nice to me and keep a false peace between us."

The man in black robe nodded silently.

Xevis was right about this.

After all, all Lin En had at this moment was the Shadow Knight team that had just been in the black clinic.

If it were in Purple Gold Flower, the Shadow Knight's power and what he could do would definitely be beyond everyone's imagination.

But now, this is Rose City, the territory of the Bayer royal family.

The Shadow Knight is a being that cannot see the light.

If Lin En used them recklessly, he would instead draw hostility from the other crown princes.

No one would allow other people's dogs to run wild in their yard.

"And we,"

Zevis smiled and spread his hands, and with a slap, communication crystals were placed on the table. Some led to hidden factories or caravans, some led to the army, and some were simply black and gray. They were special crystals for communicating with the recruited blasphemers through the shadow world.
