Eighth Crown

"Looks like a normal guy."

The green-haired young boss looked at the young man on the opposite side without a trace, and speculated silently, "It should look like he has some money. He is planning to do business, so do you want to get through the relationship with the upper management?"

"However, money is money, and if you can make a fortune, it is a fortune."

The young boss walked into the back of the bookstore, and when he came out again, he held a stack of gray papers in his hand, and then handed it to Liu Xia's hand as if he had exchanged something extraordinary.

"The portraits of the minister, the emperor, and several important ministers who have taken refuge with him are all here. Please count the guests."

These portraits are indeed a great secret for ordinary people, and it is difficult to obtain them, but as long as you have a certain amount of connections and money, it is not difficult to get these things, and they are also circulated in the black market, so as not to expose the organization behind him .

"No problem, thanks, boss."

Liu Xia counted the books and portraits, put a bulging purse on the table, turned and left the bookstore.

"Oh hoo hoo! Great harvest! Great harvest!"

The young boss looked at the large amount of gold coins in the purse with a smile on his face.

Although the organization behind him is backed by powerful forces, the daily operating expenses also need to be figured out by themselves. Many times they need to spend a lot of money, so no matter where they come from, money can be counted for every cent. point.

Liu Xia's home in this world is located near the city center at the south gate of the imperial capital, not too close or far from the imperial palace. The building itself is a two-story villa building with a spacious basement, which occupies a small area and is fairly clean.

After buying all the books and portraits, Liuxia returned home and entered the basement.

The basement was originally used by the previous owner for storage. After Liu Xia bought it, he initially remodeled it and turned it into a simple magic workshop.

Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid arranged a simple enchantment around the basement, which could detect the movement of incoming people. The door used a magic lock, and if the magic power fluctuations did not match the lock, they could not enter.

There is a sapphire ring on the table.

Lucia put down the books and other people's portraits, and took out the portrait of Minister Ornest.

The imperial minister, named Ornest, is the head of the imperial civil servants. He is an old man with a long gray beard who is at least sixty years old and looks kind-hearted, but his crime So many, Liu Xia could hear a bunch of them after just running two laps in the imperial capital.

It is said that this man is the culprit who controls the still young emperor and implements endless tyrannical politics. Under his command, he has assembled a bunch of bureaucrats who use power and official prestige to make a fortune and act as extremely bad bureaucrats.

Forcibly robbing people's women, looting people's fat and people's cream, etc. are considered light, forcing good people to become prostitutes, selling drugs, and even collusion between officials and businessmen to create unjust crimes, there is nothing they will not do.

Some of them even have extremely bad personalities. They regard other people's lives as waste, and random torture and humiliation are commonplace. Even perverts who take murder, torture, etc. as their hobbies can be seen everywhere.

Of course, what these people did, whether it was to oppress the commoners or implement tyranny, could not cause any ripples in Liu Xia's heart.

What he cares about now is only how to use his own means to subvert the empire.

"At the end of the day, to overthrow this empire, you must either shake its foundations from within, or crush it with force from outside."

Liu Xia picked up the sapphire ring on the table, released the magic stored in it, and prepared to fill it with new magic.

"But it's really difficult for me to start a large army from scratch, and it's a waste of time. In that case, it's better to use the [Revolutionary Army] directly."

Originally, this thousand-year-old empire was already on the verge of disintegration. In the case of domestic tyranny, some resistance was inevitable. However, the camel was also bigger than a horse. Several rebellions that had occurred in the empire before were forcibly suppressed. .

However, according to the common sense given by the [Anonymous Lingji], there is an army called the [Revolutionary Army] in the south of the empire, which has formed a considerable scale, and still maintains its vitality under the several conquests of the empire, and growing stronger.

"When there is a frontal resistance from the [revolutionary army] outside, I have to compete with them externally, but it is thankless."

Liu Xia engraved the rune representing the 'curse' on the ring and tried to fill it into the ring, "So, for a loner like me, the best way is to disintegrate it from within the empire."

In the end, the inside and the outside can be combined to destroy the imperial rule.

However, it is not so easy to shake the foundation of the empire from the inside, so Liu Xia has to find a way to get into the sight of the upper echelons of the empire.

"No matter the method, as long as you can enter the empire's regime, it's okay to fail. Anyway, I have the ability to [change], so I can try it a few more times."

Liu Xia put down the sapphire ring on her hand. Because it was the first time to make it, the runes were not filled in perfectly, and it seemed that it would take some time to practice.

At the beginning, Luvia was able to fill in the sun-blocking technique within a few minutes, not only because this sapphire ring was her usual dress, but also because her family magic was gem magic, and it was related to gems. Excellent.

But with Liu Xia's current attainments, it would take several days to make even such a simple dress.

But it happened that he could use this period of time to learn about the Teigu Pokédex, the Dangerous Species Pokédex, etc., and collect intelligence in the imperial capital.

After another three days passed, Liu Xia finally succeeded in making the first simple magic dress filled with the curse.

That night.

When the willow branches were on the moon, Liu Xia left the house, and with the skill of [Aura Interruption], he completely covered his own breath and came to the foot of the hill where the palace is located.

"Okay, let's start the first attempt."

Liu Xia looked at the huge wall at least 20 meters high, put on a cloak silently, and injected magic power into the magic engraving on his shoulders. His figure immediately faded and became transparent, and then disappeared directly into the open space.

After using the invisible magic, Liu Xia came to the wall, jumped up with an extremely light body, and only borrowed a force to climb over the wall and sneak into the palace.

After sneaking in, Liu Xia quickly found two guards patrolling the corridors of the palace. They were wearing heavy armor and holding shields, but they just looked like they gave a sturdy impression.

Liu Xia walked behind the two of them and applied a hypnotic rune to both of them.

"Which palace does Minister Ernest live in?"
