Chapter 586 The Road of the Dead

"clang."

The luxuriously decorated wine glass fell to the ground and turned into pieces. The deep red wine flowed out of the fragments and dyed the precious carpet red. But the owner was obviously not in the mood to care about the precious carpet under his feet. The old president opened his eyes wide and stared at the visitor in front of him. His old, blue-veins thundered hands kept trembling, and his face was as pale as white as white paper.

"What did you say? Say it again!"

"Yes...yes...Parliamentary President, we just received the news that the royal family has completely blocked the Strait of Light and prohibited any ships from entering and leaving. At the same time, they have issued a fishing ban, requiring the fishermen to return to the port immediately and not go out to sea to fish without authorization."

"How is this possible?! How is this possible!!"

Before the soldier could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old president's angrily. He walked up to him frantically, grabbed the messenger's collar and shouted loudly. Then the old man kept gasping like a beast trapped in a cage, pushed away his guard, then turned around and walked back and forth like a wounded tiger. Then he walked to the table, picked up the wine bottle on the table, and smashed it fiercely at the wall. The wine bottle collided with the wall, making a crisp cracking sound, and the wine splashed out like blood. Seeing the old president's actions, the guard did not even dare to breathe, and could only stand next to him silently, looking at the furious old man in front of him with fear.

"What the hell is the Southern Fleet doing?! Why didn't I get any news!! Where did the damn royal fleet come in from and block the "Strait of Light!"

"Report, report to the Lord, they, they are from the air..."

“From the air?!!”

Hearing this, the old president turned around suddenly. His eyes were as big as a copper bell, bloodshot, and bloodshot eyes were filled with unprecedented surprise and confusion. Feeling the old president's gaze, the guards standing in front of him even subconsciously took a few steps back, fearing that the old man would pounce on him and bit himself to death. Then he continued to speak tremblingly.

"Yes, yes. Sir. I heard that the royal fleet used the wind cháo outside the Strait of Light to dispatch the floating magic warships to block the entire strait. So the Southern Fleet did not discover it. Now they have been completely encircled by the royal fleet and are currently waiting for your instructions..."

"Speak for a fart!"

Hearing this, the old man who seemed to have been gentle and gentle actually swears very rarely. He shouted in a low voice, turned around and walked back and forth in the room. Then, the old president seemed to remember something, and he suddenly raised his head, stared at his personal guards, and then asked: "Is there any news about Saville! How is their fleet going?"

"this……………"

"Say it!! Tell me!!"

Looking at the excited expression of the old president in front of him, the guard couldn't help swallowing a saliva. He looked around and then lowered his head.

.. ”” “According to the news we have received, Lord Savile’s fleet was the first to be surrounded, and they tried to break through. But they ended in failure. All ships except the flagship were sunk. Lord Savile died. As for the flagship... it was given to the royal fleet... the specific situation...

What the guards behind said, the old president was not in the mood to listen. At this moment, his eyes flashed, his body shook, and he sank heavily on the chair beside him. His eyes, which were originally full of anger, were now extremely empty. He was confused and hesitantly staring at the ceiling in front of him. At this moment, the old president had no idea in his heart. The Strait of Light was blocked, and the Southern Fleet was isolated and had to admit it. The royal family's confidentiality work was done very well. Although the reformists had put a lot of effort into investigating everything about the royal fleet before the announcement, they found nothing. The Royal Fleet belonged to a relative Duomo in the Duchy of Moon.

Although the military branch of li was divided into the navy, no one had ever seen this fleet. Even the commanders of the same Southern Fleet and the Northern Fleet had never seen the captain and members of the Royal Fleet. Although before this, in order to prevent the royal family from mobilizing the Royal Fleet, they had sent people to monitor near various harbors. Once there were abnormal actions, they would immediately report to the Southern Parliament. However, the reformists did not calculate that although this Royal Fleet was also a fleet, they were not a naval fleet......

But what's the point of saying this now?

The southern fleet was surrounded by the other side, the Strait of Light was completely closed, and even the fishermen in the port area were issued a fishing ban. What's more important is that the wealth they had accumulated with great effort was originally used to "summon the Holy Sword to the Light Chapter 586      The Road to the Dead" to buy food, the money from the Chamber of Commerce in the country of Light has now completely entered the royal family's pocket.

When he thought of this, the old president of the parliament was almost vomiting blood and died. In order to succeed this plan, he was already desperate to make a gamble. Not only did he agree to the merchants of the country of light to ask for a huge price, but he also took out all his property. Not only that, the old president of the parliament also convinced the nobles and merchants in the parliament to take out a lot of money to survive the crisis. It can be said that this is almost all the assets of the Southern Parliament, but now, the royal party is so thorny that it is like a robber who intervenes directly, and snatches the money from them!!

So, what are we left now?

Without food, money, and manpower, we have nothing left. How can we support this for three months? How can we continue to fight against the royal party? The old man can imagine what kind of reaction they will have when others know about this, and he can understand and understand their mood. No matter who they encounter such a thing, there is only one choice. However, he is unwilling to accept that choice.

Thinking of this, the old president of the council smiled bitterly, and then he sat up again, looked at the guard in front of him, and asked.

"This matter has spread...it has spread."

Hearing the old president's inquiry, a little uneasiness appeared on the guard's face. He hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to report the true situation of his master. However, the momentum brought to him by the old president in front of him finally made the guard's answer.

"Summoning the Holy Sword" "Yes......Yes...Yes, sir, now many people outside know that the Royal Fleet has blocked the passage outside the harbor. Now many people have gone to the parliament and started protesting. Not only that, Lord Magath and others are now..."

"Okay, okay, you don't have to say anything more, I understand."

Hearing this, the old president reached out helplessly, waved his hand weakly, interrupting his guard's speech. He slowly stood up, and the old man seemed to have suddenly become twenty years older. He slowly moved to the window and stared at the scenery outside the window. At this time, the old president showed unprecedented peace on his face. He just stared quietly in front of him, as if the person who was like a trapped beast was not himself. After a long time, the old president sighed, and then he turned around to look at the guard in front of him, showing a smile.

"You go down and notify others that I have something to deal with, so that they don't come to disturb me no matter what happens, do you understand?"

"It's... sir."

Hearing the orders of the old president of the parliament, Qinwei nodded slightly, but looking at the expressions of the old president of the parliament, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Sir... are you really fine? Do you want me...?"

"No, you go down."

Faced with the worries of his personal guard, the old man just smiled. When he heard his master's order, the personal guard couldn't say anything, so he had to close the door and turn and leave silently. The heavy sound of closing the door echoed in the quiet study, and disappeared after a moment, while the old president of the council stood there silently. After a long time, he began to gradually move his steps and slowly walk in the study. Finally, the old man sat at the desk again. He picked up the quill, lowered his head, and began to write quickly on the white paper. It was not until a moment later that the old man put the quill in his hand next to him, and then he reached into his arms and took out a jing, small small glass bottle. The old man squinted his eyes and quietly stared at the glass bottle in his hand. Then, he murmured and said.

"I have tried my best, I don't regret it. I have done everything I can do. I will not choose to surrender, nor will I endure the humiliation of being captured. We just did not do well enough, not good enough. We have put in countless efforts and efforts to do this, and this is the only thing I can do in the end. Don't be afraid of failure, don't give up, we still have a future. If this failure is not the case, we will not succeed in the future. One day, we will reach the other side of success... I hope that that day will come soon. His Highness Litia, I have to admit that I underestimated you, but we will not be easily dragged down by pursuing your will."

Speaking of this, the old man opened the bottle cap of the small bottle in his hand. This time, he did not hesitate, picked up the small bottle in his hand and drank it all. Then, the old man put down the small bottle in his hand and closed his eyes with a smile.

The afternoon sun shone out from the window, shining on the old president on the chair. At this moment, the old man's eyes were slightly closed, as if he was taking a nap.

He will never wake up again. (To be continued.)
