Chapter 67 Fallen Leaves Return to Root
The Lanye Empire Embassy in Star City has always been a secluded place.
The embassy is located in the heavily guarded core area of Star City. It is rare for ordinary people to set foot in it. The relationship between Lanye Empire and Star City has been tepid for a long time. There is not much contact between them. If it hadn't been a few days ago, With the news that the Ninth Princess Lan Ye will come to Star City, the Lan Ye Embassy will become even more crowded.
Lan Zhusheng was sitting in his office at this time. Originally, the position of attaché of the Star City Embassy was a rare and light job, and it was also the highest-level military attache stationed abroad. It was ranked among the three major military attaches along with the military attachés of the Ost Empire and the Republic of Ste. As a military attache stationed abroad, he happened to encounter a few unsatisfactory things at home, so he took this job. He just wanted to see the scenery and cultivate himself in this world-famous city of miracles. Unexpectedly, he encountered an unexpected situation just one year after arriving. It was a once-in-a-decade event like Princess Ninth's visit, and she was extremely busy again.
He once again read the security measures submitted by Star City's ANBU, ticked a few specific clauses, and wanted to send it to his staff to review the details, but suddenly he heard some noise outside.
He frowned.
Lan Ye's embassy is located in a secluded location, no one is allowed to enter, and the empire's national power is at its peak. On weekdays, I just hide my strength and bide my time, but no one dares to come here to act wild.
He turned to the next document. It was filled with applications for inviting the Ninth Princess to visit and inspect. Almost all the prestigious companies in Star City were included. Even places like Billy's Fried Chicken dared to apply shamelessly. .
What if Princess Ninth likes to eat his fried chicken?
At this moment, the noise outside became louder. He stood up impatiently. Just as he was about to go outside to see what was going on, the door was hurriedly opened, and a guard in full body armor came in and saluted: "Major General, someone broke into the embassy and asked to see him. You, we asked for a pass, but he couldn't produce it and refused to go back to apply for it. Instead, he injured several of our brothers."
Lan Zhu snorted coldly: "What's your identity?"
"Wearing the uniform of Dark Star, we didn't think about it. It was too difficult for him, but he refused to let me go!" the guard continued.
Lan Zhusheng put on the big cloak and stood up: "Let me go and take a look. If it is the troublemaker, I want Xinghuaiyao to give me an explanation." ... ...Xuan Yi sat on the chair in the
reception
room
, He was sipping the water with ice in the glass in small sips.
The silver box was placed in front of him, surrounded by a circle of guards lying on the ground and wailing.
Making such a big noise should probably attract the sound of orchids and bamboos. Xuan Yi was speculating in his mind, but his expression remained indifferent.
Lan Zhusheng was appointed by the Lanye Empire on the Dongxuan of Star City. In a sense, it was equivalent to an extension of the will of the Lanye Empire. He himself belonged to the Ninth Legion and served as the deputy commander of the Knights of the Guards. It would be most appropriate for Liuyan's remains to be given to him.
Although the Ninth Legion nominally belongs to the Lanye Empire, it has been close to independence as early as a thousand years ago. All internal and military affairs are not controlled by the empire, and it also has considerable autonomy in foreign affairs. Among the three major military attachés stationed abroad, the Ninth Legion The legion then occupied a seat. There has been considerable discord between the Empire and the Ninth Legion for thousands of years. If the Ninth Princesses had not coordinated the suppression, the possibility of war would not have been ruled out.
Even the first-generation Ninth Princess probably would not have thought that the Ninth Legion she founded would gradually grow into such a behemoth comparable to the country.
Because of the above reasons, Xuan Yi would prefer to hand over Lan Liuyan's remains to the Ninth Legion for acceptance instead of simply handing them over to the Lan Ye embassy and then give up.
However, it is not easy to meet Lan Zhusheng. He has a respected status and is extremely powerful. He is a person close to the gods. In terms of specifications, he is at the same level as the governor of the Six Ministries of Star City. Naturally, he will not meet a small person like himself, so he only After being able to determine that Lan Zhusheng was in the embassy, he used methods such as deliberately causing trouble to alert the other party.
He only had ten hours to deal with all this, and there was really no room for any waste.
To be fair, the security guards at the Lanye Embassy are actually quite good. On average, they all have the ability to achieve knowledge in painting, which is a little higher than my own level of knowledge. However, the gap between the object realm and the actual combat experience is overwhelming. , leaving the other party vulnerable in front of him, but he didn't know if the officials from the Dharma Phase Realm Dongxuan Realm of the Lanye Embassy were there. If they came here first, the chaos would be a bit big.
Just when he was thinking about this, someone came slowly from a distance. Xuan looked up and recognized at a glance that the middle-aged man who looked to be in his early forties was the person he was looking for, so he finished the cup. Ice water, stood up to greet.
Lan Zhusheng was wearing a military uniform and a thick blue cloak. It was obviously midsummer, but the other party did not appear to be affected by the heat at all. He had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and looked upright and majestic. He could see that person from a distance. The guards and the silver-haired young man standing there couldn't help but frown a little, so they turned away from everyone and went straight to Xuan Yi, asking with a cold face: "Why did you say you wanted to see me?" Xuan
Yi It's not the first time to face a strong person of this level, but to face him so close and alone, not counting the funny evil god, it's really the first time. Even though the other party obviously didn't release any momentum, but the invisible pressure It made him a little breathless, knowing that the other party was angry and spoke, and if he answered carelessly, he might not even be able to live in the star prison.
After all, he was responsible for breaking into Lan Ye's embassy and injuring the guard. It is not an exaggeration to say that Lan Zhusheng killed him on the spot.
He dared to do this just because he still had Dark Star's dog skin on him, and Lan Zhusheng was also willing to condescend to see him because of this dog skin.
So Xuan Yi lowered his head with a humble attitude: "I am the Commissioner of the Anbu Enforcement Department..." As soon as he
said this, Xuan Yi felt that the air around him immediately became a little colder. After all, the Dark Star Demon Cub has a good reputation. Anyone who knows the inside story I can't get along well with anyone.
But he continued speaking quietly, seemingly unaffected: "I recently participated in a Dark Star mission and met a knight from your ninth legion." Lan Zhu remained calm and said coldly: "Continue
. Go on."
Regarding the development of the matter, he has already guessed most of the ending. Since this devil is still alive, most of the knights in his legion are dead. But what does it mean for this devil to come here to provoke? Dark Star releases missions all over the world, and there is no war all year round. It is not new for the knights of the Ninth Legion to choose to enter Dark Star missions to temper themselves in actual combat. Both sides have suffered casualties in it, but what is going on inside is the same as what is happening outside. Let bygones be bygones.
But letting things go doesn't mean Dark Star's demon cubs can poop on Lan Zhusheng's neck.
Xuan nodded: "The knights of your country have high moral character, which left a deep impression on me, and they were merciful by her, so they can survive by chance." "It's just that the
mission was dangerous, and the knight of your country unfortunately died at the last moment. Although I didn't ask for it, , but I took it upon myself to take her remains out, hoping to send them back to her hometown for burial."
Lan Zhusheng nodded silently - although he was not sure whether the death of his knight was related to this devil, but he could The other party restrained the corpse and brought it to him. At least this intention was there.
Although collecting the remains of the dead on the battlefield is not an obligation, it is a righteous act worthy of the respect of all soldiers.
So he calmed down a little and asked, "Dare I ask that knight's name."
Xuan Yi said seriously, "She calls herself the captain of the seventh company of the third battalion of the Ninth Legion Guards Knights."
"The name is Lan Liuyan."
Before he finished speaking, Xuan Yiyi felt a mountain-like pressure rushing towards him. He could no longer bear the weight of his whole body and fell down heavily. His whole body was pressed into the bluestone floor under his feet, as if the Black Tooth Beast was under his feet. Dancing happily on the back.
Lan Zhusheng was instantly furious.
