Chapter 65 I am a man without ambition
Lu Anbang's journey is not easy.
Every imperial man along the way was silently observing him.
Whether direct or indirect, some eyes are full of exploration and doubt, while others are wary and hostile.
Because the silver box he was holding was a symbol of the empire.
Apocalypse armed.
Few people know a middle-aged waste like Lu Anbang who has been living in Hutt No. 3 for many years. Even though he once shined on the battlefield against the Zixuan people, because of the existence of this armor, in people's hearts, the one who defeated the Zixuan people back then was another name.
When Lu Anbang [Rose] was armed with armor, he was the seventh caste that could not be seen directly, and his combat power was even comparable to that of this generation of [Tianzhao], known as the strongest Apocalypse Knight.
Once he removed the armor, the halo had disappeared, and people were more resistant and scrutinized to him.
But an accident happened in the middle.
A soldier stumbled out in the crowd and came to Lu Anbang with an excited expression: "Captain Lu - Team Lu, is it you? Is it you?"
Lu Anbang looked up and saw a familiar face.
That was the soldier he once commanded.
This is Lu Anbang's unexpected reunion.
The soldier was extremely excited and his hands were at a loss.
The light in Lu Anbang's eyes was also trembling slightly, but he did not say a word because he had noticed that the other party's series of actions attracted the attention of countless people around him.
Lu Anbang's eyes became colder. He stretched out his hand, pushed him away, and walked forward expressionlessly.
His power was extremely powerful. The warrior seemed to have participated in the battle in the palace area. He was covered in scars and was pushed directly by Lu Anbang and fell to the ground. He sat in the bubbles on the ground and watched Lu Anbang's back go further and further.
He looked a little confused, and he only watched Lu Anbang's back gradually fading away. Until he was about to disappear, he seemed to suddenly come back to his senses and shouted: "Captain Lu, where have you been going over the years... Brothers are waiting for you..."
Lu Anbang did not look back.
He walked through the ruins and came to the standing Xingming Palace.
The guards did not stop him.
Lu Anbang came all the way to the hall.
The sunset of the capital star is in full swing.
The lights in Xingming Palace are still brightly lit.
Emperor Mingxuan sat in the main seat above, busy with something, but when Lu Anbang came in, he noticed it immediately, stood up from his position, and took the initiative to greet him: "Captain Lu, you are here."
The emperor also used the title of Team Lu, which echoed in Lu Anbang's ears, as if overlapping with the shouts of the little warrior who had just fallen into the water.
However, Lu Anbang's face became completely serious. He tried hard to straighten his back, and his loose clothes covered his distorted figure, which was a bit magnificent and tall.
"His Majesty."
He did not salute, he only used this sentence.
Lu Anbang did not walk forward either. He just stood on the edge of Xingming Palace and placed the suitcase in his hand on the ground in front of him.
And that so-called suitcase is one of the four major apocalypse armed forces of the empire - Rose.
Things that thousands of people respect and respect are like an ordinary metal box, placed in front of Lu Anbang.
Then he stood up again, tidied up his clothes, and looked at the emperor in front of him.
Emperor Mingxuan's pace has begun to slow down.
He was a smart man, and he had already realized something from this simple action, but he still asked: "Captain Lu, you are..."
"Return the rose armor with your own hands." Lu Anbang replied calmly.
The emperor's footsteps were completely stopped this time. He looked at Lu Anbang in front of him: "I don't understand why this is?"
"Three years ago, I wanted to return it, but it failed." Lu Anbang said slowly, "Now, I have done it. I have come here and handed it back to His Majesty with my own hands.
"Take it back to the Empire."
Emperor Mingxuan stood in front of Lu Anbang. He looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. Even though he had tried hard to be upright and hard, the depressed look on his face for many years still lingered. He said word by word, "Lu Anbang, what you want to return to the empire is not just this armor, right?"
Lu Anbang nodded slowly: "I want to leave the empire. I am the empire's guilt, but I hope that Your Majesty can forgive me for my meager merits of guarding the border for ten years, and give me a freedom."
This is the first time that Lu Anbang regards himself as a minister.
The emperor said, "In the empire, you can also be a free person. I know everything that has happened to you, I know you have grievances in your heart, but I have not ascended the throne back then and I have no way to help you. But now, no one can influence the empire anymore, and no one can influence me anymore. The future empire will never reappear what happened to you.
"The new empire needs someone like you.
"I need you - the empire needs you - to help this country regain its glory."
This emperor said it with sincerity.
But Lu Anbang just shook his head slowly.
When he arrived at Xingming Palace, he smiled for the first time, but it was a bitter smile: "Your Majesty, you are an enterprising person. Unlike me, the empire is extremely important in me, but that is already the past, because the key to making the empire in me will no longer exist.
"minister--
"I have never had ambitions, but I'm just a waste."
Lu Anbang and the emperor are different people.
Emperor Mingxuan may have thought of many possibilities for Lu Anbang, but he did not really understand this person.
At first, he thought that Lu Anbang came to hand over the Apocalypse armed forces himself as an annoying move.
But he suddenly realized that it was not at all.
He wanted to tell him the emperor and the entire empire that he really didn't want the apocalypse army.
This thing is not that important.
Speaking of this, even the emperor could not say anything. He looked at Lu Anbang and was silent for a long time before saying, "I understand."
"Captain Lu, I will cancel all the charges against you today. That is not your guilt. You have kindness to the empire, I remember, and the empire will remember. If you want to leave, I will not keep you, but the empire will always have your place."
Lu Anbang smiled and finally showed a look of relief. He turned his head and looked at the bright sunset shining in front of Xingming Palace, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I have never thought that you dare to meet me, a person who has resentment towards the Empire alone. I believe that under your leadership, the Empire will surely regain its glory. Then I... leave..."
He walked towards the sunset over there.
Behind the emperor hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then where are you going? Are you going to the Federation?"
"No--" Lu Anbang did not look back, but waved his hand, "I want to go back to the middle of the waste."
