Doomsday Code

Chapter 1047 The First Person to Fall From Grace

Upon hearing Samlett's words, Lokaski's expression changed slightly. He then freed his shoulder from Samlett's grasp and waved his hand, saying:

"Don't take it seriously. I was just joking. I'm just a commoner, I'm no match for His Majesty."

Lokaski is shameless and brazen, but without that shamelessness, how could he have built the Adventurers' Guild to its current size?

Samuel Leigh also knew how to treat people differently depending on their status. For someone like Sheldon, he would directly threaten him with his prestige and force.

To deal with someone as shameless as Lokaski, one has to be even more shameless than him.

"Come on, you are Melo's father, and you just mentioned the matter between the two children yourself. Although I can't say that I am His Majesty's biological parent, I did raise him myself, so I can still make some decisions about his marriage."

Now that we have an agreement with both sets of elders, this matter is settled.

Lokaski was somewhat impressed by Samlett's ability to utter such shameless words without batting an eye.

"I've finally seen someone even more shameless than me. There are some things I don't even want to say to you, lest I insult the late emperor."

Let's forget about this marriage. Even if you agree, I don't think His Majesty will necessarily agree.

"But getting things done is easy. Our guild welcomes all; you can post tasks there, and as long as the price is right, I'll handle it without a problem."

Seeing that Samette still wanted to persist, Locasski immediately added:

"Of course, as the Lord of the Demigod Temple, you naturally enjoy preferential treatment. Here's what we'll do: I'll give you the highest level of treatment, and I'll give you a 20% discount on the mission settlement amount."

Lokaski held up an eight-character gesture.

Samlett had also discerned the attitude of Locaski, or rather the Adventurers' Guild; he remained neutral.

However, this neutral stance can now be considered a form of favoritism towards Sam and Chen Cheng.

However, this was undoubtedly a major blow to Sam, who had come to him for help in person.

Samuel Leigh is no nobody; he is the best in the world, and for a long time, he was the undisputed best.

But now he is old, the empire is gone, and he himself is covered in injuries. He can no longer exert even 30% of his strength, and all his former prestige is useless at this time.

Sam clenched his fists, ready to sacrifice his body and fight for His Majesty one more time.

At this moment, the surging fighting spirit burning in Sam's heart made Locaski, one of the strongest people in the world, tremble.

Feeling his fighting spirit, it was as if the invincible demigod temple master had returned.

That was incredibly powerful; it was invincible, suppressing all legendary figures in the world.

However, behind such a powerful and surging fighting spirit, Locaski could sense that he had become a castle in the air, and perhaps he only had the strength to fight one more battle. After this battle, perhaps the nightmare that weighed on the heads of all the legendary figures in the world would dissipate.

Indeed, Samette was a nightmare for him, and for all the legendary beings in the world. He was too powerful; many even believed he possessed the grandeur of the Thorn Flower Emperor, capable of fighting gods as a mortal.

It was because of his existence that the Demigod Temple could be controlled by the Empire at will, because no one could be stronger than him.

The reason why the battle that led to the collapse of the capital happened was because he was not in the capital.

When he returned, he single-handedly fought against more than a dozen legendary-level opponents, killing several of them. Then, despite his injuries, he took the then-Crown Prince with him.

It was also because of him that the imperial capital, which spanned thousands of miles and had countless powerful magic arrays laid out, was directly destroyed. As a result, even now, the ruins of the imperial capital are still incomplete in terms of laws and have become a land abandoned by the gods.

"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, until His Majesty arrives."

Lokaski managed to squeeze out those words with great difficulty.

Because he knew that the only person who could influence Samette now was Chen Cheng.

As for whether he truly wanted Sam to live, it can only be said that as long as Sam's inner demons remain, how can I attain enlightenment?

However, he was the strongest, the strongest who had cultivated to his current strength all by himself. He still had his pride, and he did not want to witness his victory in the way that Samlet died.

And he wasn't wrong. Although Samlett was very strong, when it came to matters between major powers, he couldn't resolve them by force alone.

Many times, only the parties involved can discuss and agree to certain things.

Upon hearing Lokaski's words, Samlett glared at him and said:

"What do you mean by that? Isn't His Majesty in the Northern Border? How could he possibly get here?"

"Is that so? Didn't I tell you that His Majesty has already headed south?"

Upon hearing that Chen Cheng had left the North and the Great Wall Army, Samuel immediately became furious and said:

"What are Ye Rong and the others doing? They actually let His Majesty go into danger alone again."

Although the Great Wall Army and the Demigod Temple were not under each other's command, and it was very likely that Ye Rong had also chosen to stop Chen Cheng when he left, Sam was still very annoyed at this moment.

Samlett had served Chen Cheng's father and grandfather, both of whom had served under several imperial armies, but none of them had achieved what Chen Cheng had today, directly occupying a territory.

To Sam, this was the true dawn of national restoration, which is why he felt compelled to understand why this Congress of Parliament had to be convened at all times.

Now he has some guesses, and he is certain that his guesses are pretty close to the truth.

That's why he came to the guild, wanting to use the guild's power to take action first, and absolutely not let these traitors achieve their goals.

All of this was predicated on Chen Cheng commanding the central army in the northern border, accumulating strength, and then rallying the world to punish the disobedient.

Now that we're telling him Chen Cheng has left and is all alone out there, what good would it do if he died here today?

Suppressing his emotions, Samlett then realized his blind spot and looked at Lokaski, saying:

"How did you find out about His Majesty's whereabouts?"

At this moment, Sam's voice was extremely cold. If Lokaski could not give him a reasonable explanation, then today he would not be fighting to the death for the worshippers of the Kingdom of Komo, but for Lokaski himself.

Lokaski felt a chill run down his spine as Samlett stared at him like that.

Although I know that Sam is already in dire straits, the fear in my heart still exists. Even if we were to actually fight, my confidence would be weakened by three points right from the start.
