Chapter 820: The Planetary Emperor Family
The Marshal\'s words were indeed correct, this was Richard\'s plan from the beginning.
In front of an army capable of occupying planets, one person wouldn\'t be able to do everything, even at the height of his anger and mental breakdown, he was well aware that he would fail if he tried to fight alone.
And there\'s another problem, his enemies use a minor law of the path of Destruction, so battling against them is extremely difficult.
Although he has an integrated law that contains the major heavenly Law of Life, which is no less powerful than the Law of Destruction, each has its own use, comparing them is like comparing between the height of a giraffe and the speed of a gazelle... When it comes to fighting, who can stop the path of Destruction?!
So his silver soul immediately worked to try to find solutions as quickly as possible.
When Richard pumped the life energy of nearly 30 million people into the capital and supplied it with his silver soul force to give it consciousness, he could read the entire city as if it were in the palm of his hand, and of course, he felt the enormous Heaven Shield Array, and most importantly, he felt that the array was still working and was drawing energy from the circular building, that is, directly from the large treasury of the imperial capital!
At that moment, Richard knew that he had found the solution, this enormous array had been repelling the attacks of this huge army for nearly six days, and most importantly, according to the Shadow Sword, it was responding to their attacks and even took down a number of their Martial Emperors!
If he could restore it to its full strength and use it to seal everyone in the city, the array would easily be able to attack them from above like ants and kill them all! So Richard took over the array and directed it instead of the twenty Life Emperors who had fallen or were fighting, and ordered it to silently regenerate itself and remain hidden for as long as possible.
He didn\'t worry that this would take too long, without anyone to attack the array, and a treasury containing an endless amount of energy pearls, it wouldn\'t be an hour before the array would return to its optimal state, by then he would be victorious!
But...
"Stop!!" Richard shouted loudly as he saw the short hammer slip from the marshal\'s hand and quickly approach the tower, knowing full well that he couldn\'t reach it.
Marshal Straga laughed loudly when he saw Richard\'s reaction, his suspicions confirmed then... Even if they had wanted to control the array before, they wouldn\'t be able to do it if they were killed by it! Destroying it now would prevent any future problems, "Haha now kneel obediently and accept your defeat you fool, or escape to the ends of the planet if you wish, this city is ours-- huh?"
"Before you destroy something in the city you must ask this mayor\'s permission first!!" A shadow came rushing out of nowhere and stood in the hammer\'s path, his body was covered in injuries and blood was pouring from his neck and stomach, he was already half dead.
*Boom*
The hammer hit him and there was a huge explosion that made it lose most of its momentum "Pfft!!!" A cloud of blood splattered everywhere, that person\'s body turned into dough and scattered everywhere.
A few weeks ago--
"Haha, so you are nephew Richard, what a young man! Just looking at you pleases my eyes and gladdens my heart! Excuse this old man if the celebration does not suit your coming, but I blame nephew Caesar because he did not inform us of your presence beforehand!" The mayor of the city, Henry Burton, approached with a kind smile on his face, opening his arms wide
"There was no need for all this, I just came to take a look around." A faint smile appeared on Richard\'s face
"Just take a look? Then go where?! This is your father\'s city and your city after him!" The mayor spoke in panic then looked at Caesar, "Did you hear that, nephew Caesar?"
"Hehe, he\'s just playing around, Uncle Henry, don\'t pay attention to him, you can go back to organizing the celebrations, I\'ll talk to him." Caesar gave a laugh
"Phew~ Alright, I\'m reassured now." Mayor Henry sighed and took out a small metal card, "Nephew Richard, this is my soul print, if you need me or the city for anything, just let me know, even if you want to declare war on the world, we will find your lead. Alright, I\'ll let you rest now."
Richard received the card, then waited until Henry left the palace and the smile disappeared from his face before he carelessly placed the soul print card in the ring, "It seems that my father left quite a few instructions for the city officials..."
"Haha, come by my side and look at the streets, did your father leave any instructions for all of them?" Caesar gently pulled his brother towards the palace window, and pointed towards the huge festival in the streets of the capital, "Why don\'t you say that they see you as the future of the Empire and they truly love you?"
Richard took a moment to look into the eyes of the boys and elders on the streets, "...Can you trust their love? The ones who opened the gates of Jura from the inside were the elders of the family, they treated me and you like princes before they staped us in the back in the first opportunity to save themselves."
"But there were also many elders who died to give the young a chance to survive, have you forgotten them? Mayor Henry himself was still in his forties during the Jura City war and was one of the first to choose to sacrifice himself along with Grandpa Brian Burton and the rest, but he was captured and put in the prisons of the Flame Empire."
Then he took a long look at the streets, "The current elders were not chosen in vain, they are all good men who have done many things for the family, and the new generation isn\'t bad as well as they opened their eyes seeing all these good men in front of them and were raised on family unity and dying for the rest, the Jura War was a catastrophe indeed but it made this family strong, it made them worthy of being the family of a Planetary Emperor!"
"...I don\'t know, from my experience, what you\'re talking about seems like a fictional story." Richard smiled and shook his head.
Caesar laughed, "I hope that we may never see such catastrophe again in our lifetimes, but if it comes, you\'ll see yourself how refined this family has become." Then he looked back out the window with a smile.
"Uncle... Henry..." Richard muttered in a low voice as he saw Mayor Henry\'s body scattered everywhere.
All that remained of him was his head, with eyes devoid of any signs of life, and a mouth showing a satisfied smile.
