Chapter 107: The Treacherous Minister Who Shows the Way
"Good man, wait, don't act yet, everything can be discussed!"
Honest was a middle-aged fat man, but at this moment he displayed the skills he once had as a martial monk of Yellow Springs Temple.
He made two big jumps back, returning to the protection circle of the Rakshasa Four Ghosts, while using weak-sounding words to interfere with the invader before him.
"Why would I make a move?"
Broly heard the agile fat man's words and felt somewhat strange, directly asking back.
"Aren't good men here to kill people?"
"Slander, I, Bu... uh, I Yamparu, how could I possibly be here to kill people?"
Broly dared to swear that since he broke into the Imperial Palace until now, he had not dealt a single fatal blow.
Those who were beaten down were at most severely injured and unconscious, absolutely none had died.
"Uh, then what is the good man breaking into the Imperial Palace to do?"
Honest asked cautiously, he still did not dare to expose his identity as a traitorous minister.
"Me, I'm here to do business with the Empire."
Broly saw someone asking again and didn't mind stating his purpose.
Hearing that Broly just wanted to purchase (steal) Teigu, Honest finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, I can't find the Armory here, can you tell me, oh no, personally take me there?"
Broly asked, he now desperately needed a guide.
Honest didn't answer directly, his gaze fell on one of the Rakshasa Four Ghosts. Although he had just heard Suzuka report that the invader was an existence capable of instantly killing Budo, after calming down, looking at the short-statured masked invader at the front door, the suspicious Honest still had some doubts.
"If you can beat my Subject, I'll take you there."
Honest thought for a moment and said, Toge, one of the Rakshasa Four Ghosts by his side, stepped forward.
"Are you sure?"
Broly's eyes lit up as he asked.
"Of course."
Minister Honest nodded, and in the next moment, the Rakshasa Four Ghosts by his side, regardless of male or female, were thrown onto the wall by someone.
"Alright, I've beaten them, you can lead the way now."
Broly, who appeared before Honest like a gust of wild wind, clapped his small hands, just as if he had just swatted away a few flies.
Suzuka, who had fallen against the wall and was slowly sliding down, looked at Honest, and Honest also looked at this Subject. At this moment, he had no more doubts about the authenticity of his report.
"Hi, Invader-sama, walk this way. I'm familiar with this place, the Imperial Palace, so let me take you to see your Teigu."
Minister Honest was different from martial officials like General Budo; he was a thorough Prime Minister. After discovering that the invader before him was impossible to defeat by force, he immediately displayed an attitude of submission. Look, the Teigu in his words had already become yours.
He led Broly to the Armory where the Empire stored Teigu. Along the way, some Imperial Palace guards tried to remain loyal to their duties, but were directly shouted back by Honest.
What a joke. Even that stubborn fellow Budo was instantly defeated, and his personal guards, the Rakshasa Four Ghosts, were instantly plastered onto the wall. Just relying on ordinary guards in the Imperial Palace to try to play the hero? They should take a look at themselves first. Of course, Honest didn't care about the life or death of ordinary guards; he was just worried that someone might anger the invader beside him, possibly implicating this noble Imperial Minister of his. That was all.
"Lord Yamparu, this is the Armory where the Empire stores Teigu." Minister Honest smiled as he introduced it to Broly, but after turning to face the Armory guards, he immediately changed his expression and roared at the two guards, "You two idiots, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and open the door, let Lord Yamparu in to choose Teigu?" The guards were somewhat stunned, but could only obediently listen and open the Armory's large door, which had multiple steel locks.
As soon as the door opened, a burst of cold air came out from inside.
At the same time, there was also something similar to the belt Leone found, which made faint sounds that affected the Spirit.
"Is that all?"
Walking inside, Broly saw Teigu of various types such as knives, spears, swords, and axes. Just counting the quantity, he discovered there were only eighteen Teigu here.
"A large portion of Teigu were lost four hundred years ago. Although the Empire has recovered them over many years, the Teigu currently mastered by the Empire number only thirty-two. Of those, fourteen are in active service. If Lord Yamparu needs them, I can immediately order the recovery of the Teigu being used by the Empire's Teigu Users."
Honest said, occasionally turning his head to look at the Armory's door, thinking in his heart whether he could rely on suddenly closing the door to lock this terrifyingly powerful invader inside the Armory where Teigu were stored.
But thinking of the Rakshasa Four Ghosts being plastered onto the wall and the opponent's terrifying speed that made their movement trajectory impossible to see, Honest decisively gave up this suicidal idea.
"No need for recovery. The quantity of Teigu here is already enough for what I need."
Broly waved his hand to refuse the other's proposal, took out a hemp bag he had brought along from his pocket, and began his Zero-Yuan Purchase with light steps.
However, the hemp bag Broly had prepared was ultimately too small. A few of the Teigu here were large, such as two great axes, and a pair of super-large scissors twice as tall as him.
After putting the miscellaneous small Teigu into the hemp bag, Broly began to worry that he didn't have more limbs to carry things.
"Lord Yamparu truly has good judgment. These Teigu are all Good Goods. What are you still looking at outside? Hurry up and bring hemp ropes, tie up these Teigu that Lord Yamparu has taken a liking to, and later let Lord Yamparu take them all away."
Fortunately, Honest was a considerate Prime Minister. After seeing his frown, he immediately issued orders to the guards outside.
"Ah, you really are a kind-hearted Good Person!"
Seeing this, Broly's Goodwill toward the middle-aged fat man beside him greatly increased.
"Where, Lord Yamparu, you flatter me."
Honest felt it was very subtle. After being a Prime Minister for so long, it was the first time someone had praised him as a Good Person.
"By the way, Lord, there is one more Strongest Teigu over here."
Minister Honest endured the slander in his heart and, with some ill intent, began recommending a Teigu beside him to Broly.
It was a silver large jar. The sound coming from inside was the most numerous and most complex. Broly had heard it when he came in.
"This is Demon's Extract. It is said to be a liquid-type Teigu refined by extracting the blood of the whole body of a Super Danger Beast from the North."
It is said that those who drink it can obtain the ability of that North Super Danger Beast to manipulate frost. It is undoubtedly the Strongest Teigu in this Armory.
The description of Demon's Extract was not wrong. It was the Strongest Teigu besides the Supreme Teigu. However, when this Teigu was made a thousand years ago, the methods the Empire used were too cruel.
After the Teigu was made, they would also kill the maker to keep the Teigu's ability secret. This led to the artisan who discovered the Heresy, while making this thing, secretly reducing the process of removing the Super Danger Beast's resentment, so the Super Danger Beast's will contained within Demon's Extract was not weakened.
Although this also enhanced the effect of this Teigu granting the user stronger abilities, if the user could not suppress the Super Danger Beast's resentment existing within Demon's Extract, after drinking this thing, they would either become a madman or explode and die.
To this day, other Teigu more or less have records of being used normally, but only this thing—every attempter dies badly. Even if just a small sip, they either go mad or die.
Thank you for the reward
