Northern Empire, imperial capital.

Just as the diamond royal family said, there is only one empire in the world, so the country does not need a name. There is only one imperial capital in the world. As long as someone mentions it, no one will think of other cities.

In the center of the holy city surrounded by the three mountains is a huge city in the city. It is surrounded by a strong wall and separated from the rest of the city. Within the wall, there are towering minarets and vaulted halls supported by stone beams.

Over there is the residence of the imperial family, the palace of Morley.

Mollai palace was built by the founding emperor of the Empire. Originally, it had only a simple cylindrical hall as the residence of the royal family. However, successive emperors of later generations had different aesthetic styles and built palaces according to their own preferences. As a result, for thousands of years, the whole mollai palace has gradually become a complex palace group composed of numerous magnificent buildings with different shapes.

In the palace of Morley, not only the imperial family lived in it, but also the residence of the royal guards, the parliament hall and many organizations directly under the royal family.

Sitting in the dark yellow carriage with the sun's crest, with Ying and Lin, Joshua and Brandon are heading for the palace together. Now it's late at night, but because of the appearance of demons before, countless city guards are seriously patrolling the streets, and they are strictly checking to prevent this kind of thing from happening again.

"It's not just the imperial capital, it's happening all over the continent."

With the CAOS family and the Royal mage Association as the source of information, Brandon knew something faster than Joshua. In the carriage, he looked through all the information that had been sent urgently, and explained to the soldiers: "at present, it can be determined that the disaster situation in the eastern plain kingdom is the most serious, there are the most casters, and there are also many people with magical blood, It's very suitable for sacrifice. In the far south, the large number of refugees brought by the Dragon disaster is the best material for the evil ceremony. Because a large number of monsters attack everywhere, the Kingdom army has no time to care about them, and the losses are even greater than those in the eastern plain.

"Even the western mountain dwarfs and the whispering elves, who are almost in seclusion, have been harassed by the heretics. It seems that the emperors have no serious losses because of their strict defense."

"Sure enough, heretics are everywhere." Joshua nodded slightly, and he was not surprised.

As long as the desire is not satisfied, chaos will spread, no matter what race, there is no exception.

Because he had been fighting with the devil before, he had changed his clothes. It seemed that he wanted to contact with the emperor next. This was a common aristocratic costume, but even so, those complicated patterns and decorations could not cover up the fierce spirit of the soldiers: "however, why did the emperor meet us?"

He felt a little strange. After all, he just killed a demon. This kind of thing is rare and common. Even in the imperial capital, a reward is enough. When he was in the abyss, he took a group to run and kill a demon, which was a nest. Some time ago, he used the book of iborn to summon the demon. Now the wine and food are numb.

Even if you want to know the devil's information, you don't need to ask him to come.

"It's not us, it's you, just you."

Pointing out the fault of Joshua's words, Brandon shook his head and said: "although it's just a demon, it's the biggest difference that it appears in the imperial capital. Let's not talk about other political or security significance, which means that the seal of the abyss has begun to loosen, and you are the guardian of chaos... I say Joshua."

At this point, Brandon stopped to explain and frowned. Instead of looking at the information in his hand, he raised his head and said to the soldier: "can you restrain your authority? The coachman and the horse are shaking, and the carriage has begun to go astray, don't you feel it? "

"It's converged a lot."

Looking at the side of the body, Ying and Lin are smiling secretly. Joshua shrugs helplessly. He looks at the system characters at the edge of the retina and sighs: "this trouble is really getting bigger and bigger."

In the system character list in the eyes of soldiers, there is a number that is particularly eye-catching.

[Charm: - 53]

Of all the attributes that are 100 up or more, this is the only one that stands out as a negative number.

Under this attribute, there are many new descriptions and reports.

Your aura of fear is upgraded to desperation aura as your charm exceeds minus 50

[because you have killed the sub body of the great devil 'heart eating devil laldanas', its curse and resentment are entangled around you. Your aura of despair is upgraded to aura of despair, and you gain a + 1 bonus on judgment.]

You've killed a great devil and made him taste fear and despair[you get achievement: natural enemies of demons]

The detailed attribute of this achievement, Joshua did not want to see any more. Anyway, it was all kinds of judgments on reducing charm, increasing threats, threats and persuasion. Generally speaking, it made his personal image more negative. Just through the process, it would make the horses and coachmen tremble as Brandon said before.

What is the concept of charm? The soldier estimated that if he didn't show his identity and went to the palace gate for a walk, he might be surrounded by a whole forbidden guard order. No matter which city he went to, he would be blocked by the guards at the gate and refused to enter. The staff in any public place would be waiting for him after he entered. If the halo of despair, that is, the enhanced halo of fear, was added, Joshua felt that he could be called the source of the disturbance. Everywhere he went, he would cause a large-scale panic, more demonic than the devil.

"You killed too many monsters..."

Close the information in hand, Brandon seems very helpless: "at this point, even the Archbishop level pastor can't help you."

Of course, he knew that his friend in front of him was not a villain. In fact, from the swordsman's point of view, Joshua was a competent, even perfect Lord. He was even willing to kill dragons for his people. Even if he was assassinated many times, he had no regrets and complaints. But in this world with magic and soul, The curse left by life before death is also real. The monsters killed by Joshua have their grievances wrapped around the soldier. Although they can't do any harm to him, they will affect other people's thoughts.

Generally speaking, soldiers who have been fighting for a long time will have similar situations. Compared with being close, most people will respect or fear them more. However, in Joshua's case, this situation has reached a climax - from respect, fear, fear, fear to feeling extremely dangerous or even weak at the last sight, A sense of hopelessness unable to move.

Through divinity, the priest can purify this special state, but as Brandon said, judging from the soldier's current situation, I'm afraid it's not only the Pope who can help him solve this problem.

Because of Joshua's reason, the carriage was very slow, and it took a long time to arrive at the gate of Morley palace.

The guards in black armor came to the carriage. They saw the Royal insignia on it. They knew that it must be a noble person personally invited by the emperor. So they were very polite. But no matter how polite they were, the rules could not be changed. Several guards had to open the door to see who was on it, and they could not carry weapons into it, Put it in their custody for the time being.

It seems that the captain of the guard expressed his desire to open the door to check, and Brandon naturally agreed.

When he opened the car door, the captain looked up and recognized Brandon's identity. As the backbone of the royalists and the eldest son of the CAOS family, the swordsman was very famous among the guards. He was even given the right to hold weapons in the palace.

With a respectful salute, the captain turned to the other side.

Then he immediately put his hand on the handle of the long sword at his waist
