Now, the warlocks in the Alchemy Association have become accustomed to living on piles of gold coins. The entire Alchemy Association cannot leave this industry, and Pala alone cannot change anything.
What's more... there are even more terrifying things driving all of this.
The ambitious eldest princess took the initiative to push this violence to maturity, which was not something Pala could control.
"That talented lady," Pala said, "I am amazed at her talent, but also feel sorry for the path she has taken."
During these three years, Ming Fuluo's reputation became more and more famous, but what brought this fame was one dangerous and terrifying weapon after another, from the most primitive etheric firearms to various modified versions of etheric firearms. The failure of the first generation of floating guns did not stop her on this violent path, but instead made her create the second generation of floating gun hummingbirds that shocked the empire again - until now, this weapon, which is several times or even dozens of times more terrifying than the etheric firearms, will be placed in the production chain of the Alchemy Association for mass production.
After hearing Pala's words, Ansher didn't say anything, but the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"It would be great if she could use her talent to get closer to the truth. I'd even like to introduce her to a teacher, but unfortunately... ah, I'm sorry, Anser, for making you listen to an old man like me nagging like this."
Pala led Anser to a door, shook his head and laughed: "I guess I can only talk about these things with you and the teacher."
"No, I quite like what you say, and..."
Anser raised his eyebrows slightly: "As I recall, your office is not this room."
"I have a guest in my office, so it's not appropriate for me to entertain you, Anser."
"Hmm? Then wouldn't it be bad to abandon the guests?"
Young Hydra said this, smiling at the old man standing at the door with a slightly stagnant expression:
"Sir Pala, how could I allow you to do something so impolite?"
He tapped the ground lightly with his cane, and his voice was gentle, but it seemed as if he was issuing an order that no one could disobey - even if the old man opposite was a fifth-level transcendent, a student of his father, and an old acquaintance of his.
"Please take me to see her."
"..."
After a brief silence, a helpless smile appeared on Pala's old face: "I should have guessed it earlier. This is why you came, Anser."
He led Anser to the room opposite, waved his hand gently, and the heavy wooden door opened automatically.
Anser stood at the door, waiting very gently and politely for the old man to enter the room first.
"Sir Celsus, you——"
In this office, a sweet girl's voice was heard, which reminded people of the clear spring flowing in the mountain stream and the birds singing with their necks stretched out, but it also had an elegant and noble temperament like the tulips blooming under the moon.
The girl stopped talking halfway through her words.
Because she saw the blond boy standing at the door, smiling at her.
"It seems like this is the first time we've met."
Anser bowed slightly like a gentleman, raised his head, and said to the girl sitting on the sofa with a smile on his face:
"Hello, Your Highness Susilen."
At this moment, Hitana had fallen into a daze.
She looked at the girl in the office, who was wearing a luxurious white pleated skirt and an iris crown on her head. She was dignified, elegant, and noble. She looked about the same age as herself, or perhaps even younger. The phantom in her dream... gradually enveloped her.
She is...she is the future emperor!
Absolutely right! Although he was completely different then and now, his temperament and expression were absolutely a perfect match, plus the name Anser mentioned...
Now, she actually met the future emperor?
Xitana was stunned, and suddenly an idea popped into her mind.
If we kill this guy directly, what will happen to the future of the empire?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Xitana immediately dismissed it - what a joke! Only a ghost would do such a stupid thing!
"...Sir Anser."
The youngest of Efesand's six children, Princess Susilen, stood up, lifted her skirt and saluted Anser: "It's an honor to meet you for the first time."
Anser looked at Susilun, who looked calm and not nervous at all, and first motioned to Xitana to close the door, then said with a smile:
"I didn't expect that His Excellency Pala's guest would be His Highness Susilun. I am sorry to bother you two with my presumptuous visit."
"That is not the case, Lord Anser."
Su Silun's voice was soft and soothing: "I was just discussing some trivial matters with Lord Pala."
"A small matter...?"
Anser's mouth corners slightly raised: "Your Highness Susilun, are you sure it's a small matter?"
"..."
In Susilun's silence, Anser walked leisurely into the house, picked a sofa and sat down, and said in a brisk tone: "This morning, I suddenly heard a piece of news about the mass production of the second-generation floating gun."
"Our genius lady... encountered some problems in the design, which resulted in the second-generation floating gun being unable to be mass-produced."
Anser held his chin with one hand and looked at Su Silun with a half-smile: "Is that so, Your Highness Su Silun?"
Pala couldn't help but speak out: "Anser, Her Highness Susilen just talked to me about something--"
"It seems that Lord Anser came here specifically for this purpose, right?"
Su Silun's tone changed slightly, losing some of its gentleness and becoming cold and calm.
"No, I'm just curious."
The young Hydra said briskly, "Although Ivora only cares about whether the problem is solved, she will not let go of anyone who deliberately creates problems. She will throw the problem of the failure of mass production of the floater on Babel first, but it does not mean that she does not know that it was the Alchemy Association that deliberately interrupted the mass production of the second-generation floater."
"That's the wrath of Ivola, Pala."
Anser said something that sounded like a threat, but his smile was very gentle: "You know how dangerous she is, but you still made this decision without authorization. You must have some confidence, right?"
"And in this world, the only one who can resist her wrath, besides Hydra, is..."
"Mother."
Susilen continued Anser's words.
She bowed slightly to Anser and said, "Sir Anser, I falsely conveyed my mother's will and asked the senior management of the Alchemy Association to temporarily stop the mass production of the second-generation floating guns."
Pala was obviously an insider, and he did not react to Susilun's words, but this somewhat broadened Miss Hitana's horizons, and she was stunned again.
Fake imperial decree? A little princess faked the emperor's decree? Just to stop the production of some floating cannon?
What a weird thing is this!
"I want to hear your reasons." Ansel did not have any doubts about Susilun's words. It was obvious that he was very clear about the situation.
"reason……"
Su Silun was silent for a long time, then stood up and stared at Anser seriously.
"Well, although the timing is not very good now, I can also take this opportunity to say something that I am destined to say to you, Lord Anser."
"Sir Anser, do you think the current empire is normal?"
she asked.
"Personally," Anser raised his shoulders slightly, "I am not very happy to see such an empire."
"So do I." Susilun said softly, "Chaos, fighting, quarrels, conspiracies... never-ending. The emergence of firearms has cast a terrifying bloody shadow over the empire. If floating guns, which are a hundred times more violent than them, appear and are put into mass production... Lord Anser, can you imagine what the empire will be like at that time?"
Her words are so upright and compassionate, and her starting point is so bright and just.
"You are a person who yearns for order, Lord Anser." The little princess continued, "From the territory you govern, I can see that you pursue order. So I also believe that you must not want to see such a scene."
"The so-called mass production of hummingbirds is of no benefit to the empire."
Su Silun said very seriously: "So I don't want it to be successfully developed, so if possible, I hope you can give me a hand."
Her Royal Highness, like a little white flower, bowed deeply to Anser.
Xitana leaned close to Anser's ear and whispered, "Anser, I think she makes sense."
"Huh? Really?"
Anser answered without lowering his voice, which made Xitana a little embarrassed, but she still said in a low voice: "Yes, although that thing can't cause any harm to me, if it is mass-produced... If the noble guards have this thing, then the common people will be doomed! I also think it's better not to let this thing be produced."
Hearing this, Anser couldn't help but chuckle: "Xitana, do you think His Highness Susilen really did this for the sake of the harmony of the empire?"
"......?" Shitana tilted her head, expressing confusion.
Su Silun's expression did not change, she just looked at Anser.
"Let me tell you what the order of the empire is."
Anser raised his index finger and whispered, "Yes, and there is only one, and that is His Majesty himself."
"As long as she wants, she can eliminate all the ills in the empire; just like the empire is now so decadent and declining, all because of her own problems."
"That's why..." Anser's eyes moved to Susilun's pure and lovely face, "The order of the empire depends only on the emperor's will. If the emperor wants to make the empire better, the empire will get better, and vice versa. So--"
"Her Highness Susilen's move is meaningless and cannot change anything, and she knows this very well."
"Right." Anser tilted his head and said to Susilun with a smile, "Your Highness?"
"...Sir Anser." Su Silun said calmly, "I don't know what you are talking about. If you are unwilling to help me, then I will withdraw my previous plan--"
"Since Her Highness Susilun knew this, why did she risk offending Her Highness the Crown Princess and even commit treason by falsely conveying His Majesty's will to stop the mass production of the floating guns?"
Anser interrupted Susilun, his words turned into blades, ruthlessly dissecting the little princess's self in an instant.
"Because she...just wants to offend His Highness Ivora."
"——Mr. Pala." At this time, he suddenly said, "The following words are not suitable for you to listen to. Please go out for a while."
"..."
Pala was silent for a moment, then whispered to Anser: "Anser, I don't know what you are going to do, but... Her Highness Susilun's intentions are genuine. She really wants to end this absurd trend."
After saying this, he disappeared in the office.
"Well, now I have a lot to say." Anser nodded with satisfaction, "There is no need for you to pretend anymore, right, Your Highness Susilen?"
"Sir Anser." Su Silun sighed weakly, "I really don't know what you are talking about. Please stop putting undue pressure on me."
"Is that so?"
The young Hydra raised his eyebrows slightly and turned to look at the girl beside him.
"Hitana, if your mother really hates something, what would you do?"
"Of course, move that thing away from Mom, or just destroy it!"
Sitana answered without thinking: "That's good."
"Your mother will be very happy, and the things she hates are also the things you hate, so you and her will be happier, right?"
"Of course it would be... huh?"
Xitana also vaguely sensed something was wrong.
This analogy, which was so simple that even a dog could understand it, made the smile on Susilen's face disappear little by little.
Until it completely turned into coldness and indifference.
"Sir Anser." Her tone was calm. "There shouldn't be any conflicts between you and me."
"Not before." Anser smiled, "But after you stopped the mass production of floating guns, there are now."
"…You're on her side?"
Su Silun frowned slightly: "You should not be able to tolerate your elder sister's bad character at all."
"No, I never take anyone's side, I only take my own side."
Compared to Su Silun's serious look, Anser seemed extremely relaxed: "It's the same this time."
"You need me to lift the Alchemy Association's restrictions on the mass production of floating cannons." Su Silun immediately understood what Anser meant, "But Lord Anser, what can you give for this?"
Although it sounds very stupid to dare to negotiate with Anser now, it just shows Susilun's courage.
Because to some extent...she was really doing this on behalf of the emperor.
The old king hated his successor who expected his death all the time, and he also hated her growing power.
The existence of firearms has further expanded Ivora's already huge power, and if the same thing happens, the floating cannons produced under Ivora are also mass-produced... the influence of this princess in the empire will undoubtedly reach its peak.
Efesande, who had no choice but to kill Ivora, was also unwilling to sit idly by and watch Ivora grow in power. Even if she was barely alive and unwilling to die, she was still the supreme ruler of the empire. How could she tolerate someone so arrogantly encroaching on her power right in front of her?
At this time, someone needs to step forward and solve this problem for our Emperor.
