Chapter 494 The Necessity Of Blood Baptism
- At this moment, the parliament was in a state of panic. A multitude of crisis remarks were circulating, consuming everything in their path like malevolent spirits. It appeared that the alliance of the major nobles was on the brink of collapse. Some elders were restless, contemplating inviting Lianwei to intervene and quell the unrest. However, to their horror, they discovered that Lianwei had long since passed away. The mysterious circumstances surrounding Lianwei's death instilled great fear in these individuals. They believed that the Empress had begun consolidating her power and had set her sights on them. An Empress backed by the Cyber City - wouldn't that be a catastrophic force?
- The events that followed confirmed their fears. Following an assassination attempt, the Empress underwent a drastic transformation, becoming bloodthirsty, cold, ruthless, and warlike. She even donned armor and personally led her troops into battle. With the support of the Cyber City, she commanded thousands of black iron cavalry and marched towards the heart of the palace. Her objective was clear - to swiftly and decisively eliminate the old nobility with the utmost force.
- Reform necessitated bloodshed, even if it went against her desires. However, for the empire to endure, these individuals had to be removed. Fueled by this resolve, the Empress transitioned from a compassionate and democratic leader to a cold and ruthless conqueror.
