Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    New Wales, the capital of the Brittanian Empire, is a bustling metropolis with pedestrians and vehicles coming and going. Its scale and prosperity are many times larger than those of Beijing. However, if you look at this city from a high altitude, you can see a  Very interesting sight.

    The circular city structure is like a lollipop. The imperial city where the emperor lives in the center is the most prosperous and colorful. The first floor next to the imperial city is the area where the nobles live, and the prosperity is only slightly less than the imperial city.  A little bit, and then expanding outwards are commercial areas, civilian areas, and slums. The farther out you go, the more crowded the crowds are, but the buildings are lower and simpler, and the colors become more monotonous.  .

    There is a strange street at the junction of the aristocratic district and the commercial district in the northwest of the city. There are neither nobles nor common people living here. There are a few small shops scattered on both sides of the street. The shop signs are very old and even white.  You can't see the words clearly. Apart from that, there is nothing else on this street. Not to mention pedestrians, there is not even a passing night cat or wild dog. The whole street is sandwiched between the bustling aristocratic district and the commercial district.  The middle was unexpectedly empty and desolate, like a lollipop with a piece missing.

    It stands to reason that such an area with a very good geographical location should be competed for by the big nobles in the aristocratic district and the big bosses in the business district, but everyone thinks that this street does not exist, and people with a little common sense don't.  You know, that's where the Sword of Damocles, the secret law enforcement force known as the most terrifying department in the empire, is located.

    The Sword of Damocles is a special law enforcement department set up by the emperor for some powerful criminals who cannot be dealt with by ordinary law enforcement departments. It is also responsible for some extremely secret intelligence collection work. Its importance in the empire is even still in the empire.  The cutting-edge force of the Knights of the Round Table, because the targets of their law enforcement are all nobles with high status and strong backing, and even the royal family. As long as the Sword of Damocles thinks you are guilty, if you are a noble below the earl, they will do it without saying a word.  Let your head fall to the ground. No notification or explanation will be given. Killing will be a killing.

    It's been a little unusual these days. The usually deserted streets often see scattered people coming in and out, as if they are busy with something. After some inquiring, well-informed people found out that this was related to the reform joint urban management and relevant departments.  The powerful organization, also known as the three most powerful departments in the world, has a new owner in the past two days!

    For a time, everyone in New Wales was in danger. None of the big aristocrats and tycoons dared to say that their hands were absolutely clean. The key depends on what kind of person the new owner of the Sword of Damocles is.  The former commander of the Sword of Morcles was a bad-tempered guy. He usually walked on the street like a crab and ran rampant. Anyone who dared to mess with him would be dead and dismembered the next day.  During the period when the leader was in office, the big shots in New Wales were all hiding in their homes like mice, daring not to come out.

    And some people with higher status or big families began to inquire about what kind of person this mysterious new leader is. It is necessary to know that the appointment of the leader of this special department can only be appointed by His Majesty the Emperor himself, and what kind of person is sent to serve as Bodhidharma.  The owner of the Sword of Chris can completely show His Majesty the Emperor's attitude towards these people, just like the leader who had a bad temper and killed wantonly more than ten years ago, which made everyone complain. Who dares to say that the nobles at that time did not do too much.  Why did the emperor send such a person to lead the Sword of Damocles because he couldn't bear it anymore?

    The energy of these big shots should not be underestimated. After their inquiries, they soon learned that the new leader of the Sword of Damocles was a prince. This was not surprising. His Majesty the Emperor accepted the prince he trusted to lead this important task.  Of course, it was reasonable for the department. However, when they wanted to find out which prince it was, no one got the answer. Even the royal manager next to His Majesty the Emperor did not know the name of the prince. They only knew that the prince had  A head of black hair.

    Black hair?  Everyone immediately imagined an image of a figure covered in black robes, carrying a bloody sickle, with black hair like a water snake, and even his face was hidden in darkness.  When the few nobles who knew the inside story of the royal family heard about this unknown black-haired prince, their faces instantly turned pale.

    What is the purpose of His Majesty appointing him to be the leader of the Sword of Damocles?

    ???????????????? If those nobles who were worried that the empire would cause another turmoil would see the unknown prince¡¯s appearance at this time, their jaws would definitely drop.

    "Hey, can't you keep your voices down when you come in and out? You're making a noise, Your Highness." A young man with black hair and a white shirt sat in the underground base of the Sword of Damocles, holding his hands with his hands without caring about his appearance.  His legs were put on the table in front of him, and he was concentrating on playing the game console in his hand. The ground around the chair was covered with pieces of melon seed peels. The luxurious robes that only the royal family could wear were thrown on the ground casually, and the precious fabrics had already appeared on them.  There were several wrinkles and there were a lot of melon seed peels on the sleeves.

    A group of peopleThe staff belonging to the Sword of Damocles were holding back a lot of resentment. With the replacement of old and new leaders, of course there would be a lot of things to deal with, making them work here exhaustingly, but he himself did nothing  Well, in fact, other leaders are similar. The problem is, how can any leader do this blatantly in front of all his subordinates?  ?

    Calm down, calm down, he is a prince. Although they still don¡¯t know his name, and they have never heard of a black-haired prince in the empire, he was personally appointed by His Majesty the Emperor. If you don¡¯t listen to him, you will be punished.  It is tantamount to resisting His Majesty the Emperor's rule and will result in the loss of one's head!

    "Your Highness, you have just taken office. The department is in dire need and there is a big gap in funds. Should we implement austerity measures?" Ma Ku, the assistant arranged by the emperor for Lao Cai, is also the second-in-command of the Sword of Damocles.  Viscount Si stood beside Lao Cai, his expression meticulous, and asked in a deep voice.

    Lao Cai changed his position and took his legs off the table, climbed on the table and continued to play the game console. Without raising his head, he said absently: "Anyway, you don't have money to spend, right? I need to find someone to go."  "

    Marcus, who had always kept a straight face, also showed a puzzled expression: "Who should I ask for it from? Your Highness, please tell me clearly."

    "Stupid, aren't the four rookies I brought back from the Revolutionary Alliance still in our hands last time? Your Highness went through all the trouble and risk to rescue them from the enemy country, and their families won't show any sign of it? Go away?  Go to their family to get His Highness the reward he deserves. If they don't give itah, by the way, their descendants have fallen into the hands of the Revolutionary Alliance. Currently, the Empire and the Revolutionary Alliance are at full war. They are in the enemy's hands.  I suffered a lot of torture at my hands, I lost an arm and a leg, and my tongue was cut out, so I can¡¯t communicate with others, so this is a natural development, right?¡±

    There was silence in the base for a moment, and everyone looked at their boss with strange eyes.

    Did you get the wrong line?  You must have picked up the wrong lines, right?  Yes, you are the noble prince, how could you say the lines about kidnapping by bandits? There must be something wrong.

    "Hey, what are you doing in a daze? Don't you hurry up and do it? Tell those four families that if you dare to leak the news and make this matter known to others, I will kill you!" Lao Cai urged and focused on the game again.  to fight hard.

    Everyone is petrified. Who are the characters in Sword of Damocles?  An intelligence agent whose mind is as cold as a poisonous tongue, a ruthless super killer, and a few perverted murderers. What is there that such a group of awesome people wouldn't dare to do?  But this guy actually let them do such a dirty thing as extortion!  Is there any justice?

    Marcus frowned slightly. He was also present at the welcoming ceremony for the unknown prince when he returned home. He would never forget that astonishing scene.

    ¡°At the beginning of the war, this unknown prince had made an important military exploit for the empire. In recognition of this significant feat, His Majesty the Emperor personally went to the airport to greet him.  However, what everyone else did not expect was that the person who came to His Majesty the Emperor was not a flattered prince, but a blade pressed against His Majesty's throat.

    It is said that just because he was humiliated by Alice and others when he was in the Innovation Alliance, this guy almost broke this precious artificial human trial body in a moment of anger, causing a lot of trouble for the imperial scientists. He thought he would return home.  Later, he could be more honest, but he didn't expect that he would run to assassinate the emperor as soon as he got off the plane!  It's simply lawless.

    Only a very few people know about this matter. No one knows how this mysterious unknown prince brought the virtual terminal to the emperor through a rigorous search. No one knows why a hero with a combat power of more than 4,000 can actually break through the emperor's side.  Layers of expert protection threatened the emperor's life.

    What is even more shocking is that when faced with the assassination of his son, the emperor not only did not get angry and punish the unknown prince, but instead appointed him as the leader of such an important department as the Sword of Damocles.  It's just that after making such a sharp move at the airport, the unknown prince who became the master of the Sword of Damocles fell silent and did nothing all day long, except eating and playing, and being a secretary when he had something to do.  Drycough, okay, I will be his secretary.

    Lao Cai's mood was far from as relaxed as it seemed. At the airport, he proved his excellence to the emperor through an assassination. The Brittanian Empire was a very realistic country, where strength was everything. He used practical  His actions have proven that he is an excellent chess piece, so even if he does something as sinful as assassinating the emperor, the emperor as a chess player will not care, but will happily reuse him. This is the first step of his plan.

    It¡¯s just that he didn¡¯t expect that their emperor would be so generous as to hand the Sword of Damocles into his hands, causing him to stand directly at the forefront of the limelight.  With his current strength, he is like a small sampan on the top of a wave. If he acts rashly, aOtherwise, he would be swallowed by the huge waves. Therefore, after becoming the leader of the Sword of Damocles, he has been in a state of doing nothing. It is not time for him to continue taking action. He needs to lie dormant for a while and wait.  The time has come.

    As for how long he needs to hibernate, it depends on whether someone in District 11 can help him and create opportunities for him.

    "Your Highness, this is the information from District 11 this week. Please take a look." A member of the Sword of Damocles Intelligence Department came over and placed a stack of information on the table regardless of whether His Highness the Prince noticed him or not.  .

    Lao Cai put down the game console for a rare moment and casually flipped through the papers in front of him. They were nothing more than generals colluding with a certain senior member of the Revolutionary Alliance to rebel, and a certain noble nobleman with ill intentions towards the rule of the empire planning to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor.  , a certain scientist is conducting trivial matters such as experiments on artificial humans that may destroy the world

    Finally, at the bottom of the pile of information, he found the report he loved to hear about the Governor of District 11, His Highness Clovis, who was alone with a mysterious and handsome black-haired man in District 11 on November 11th.

    "Huh?" Lao Cai was suddenly startled, because he found that together with the scandal information that was specially added at his request, there was an urgent letter sent from District 11. Of course, it was not possible to send a registered express letter.  They are under the control of this powerful organization that is as famous as the city management and related departments, but the Sword of Damocles has the fastest intelligence transmission network in the empire, so sometimes some particularly urgent letters will be entrusted to them to be delivered on their behalf.

    The letter was sent in the name of Clovis, the governor of District 11, and the recipient was the Knights of the Round Table. The content of the letter was to apply for sending two Knights of the Round Table, Lancelot and Mordred, to District 11 to join Gawain in the battle against Luo Chenxi.  and the encirclement and suppression by the Revolutionary Alliance cadet troops.  There is also Clovis's autograph and royal seal underneath, which is why it was delivered by paper letter.

    "Ouch!" Lao Cai suddenly covered his stomach, slapped over the tea tray containing melon seeds, and yelled: "Which bastard bought the melon seeds? They were already expired and you let me eat them, and you killed me!"

    The younger brothers below became frightened and begged for mercy: "Your Highness, atone for your sins. I will go and get a doctor for Your Highness right now."

    ¡°I¡¯m going to settle the score with the profiteer who sells melon seeds!¡±

    "No need." Lao Cai replied weakly, holding his stomach. He grabbed a piece of paper and ran towards the toilet. The surrounding men quickly made way. In the chaos, no one noticed the stack of information on Lao Cai's desk.  It seems a little thinner.
