If Minister Ernest could really get Lin Zhe a space-type imperial relic, Shangri-La, Lin Zhe really didn't mind helping Minister Ernest to deal with the border problem that gave him a headache.
Lin Zhe was not good at war, but he was best at assassination.
"What a tempting suggestion."
"However, the space-type emperor relic Shangri-La that you mentioned isn't in the empire's inventory.”
Minister Ernest glanced at Lin Zhe and said casually,"The space-type emperor relic Shangri-La was lost in a turmoil 400 years ago.”
As an old fox, Lin Zhe couldn't tell the truth from the expression of the minister.
However, regardless of whether Minister Ernest was telling the truth or not, Lin Zhe didn't really care. He was just casually mentioning it.
"So that's how it is?"
"That's really a pity. It's rare to have something that I really want.”
The smile on Lin Zhe's face didn't diminish.
In the original novel, the son of Minister Ernest would become the Emperor Relic Envoy of the space-type Emperor Relic Shangri-La. At most, Lin Zhe would wait until it was almost time. When the empire was no longer able to do it, Minister Ernest would also be unable to do it. Then, he would bring the Shangri-La over.
Actually, there were two ways to use an imperial relic.
The most common one was eye affinity. If one was valued by a monarch relic and had enough ability, they could become a monarch relic envoy.
The other was similar to Aiders in the original novel. He forcefully drank an entire pot of Demon Essence and relied on his absolutely powerful will to forcefully suppress the will of the Imperial Relic.
By demonstrating one's absolute strength, one would obtain the right to try out an Imperial Artifact and become an Imperial Artifact Envoy.
Lin Zhe was prepared to use a method similar to Aiders to forcefully suppress the will of an imperial relic and use it forcefully.
What happened next naturally became simple.
Lin Zhe, Hill, and Leona followed Minister Ernest and Aiders to the Thearch Repository.
Just like in the original novel, Aiders downed the entire Devil's Essence in one gulp. At this moment, although Aiders 'physical condition was not very good, his spiritual will was even more excited than in the original novel.
It easily suppressed and tamed the will of the Demon God's Essence.
However, it was not the case for Hill. In terms of affinity, Hill was not noticed by the Emperor Relics in the Emperor Relics Warehouse. He went around without any movement.
He had no choice but to look forward to the future creation of the Revolutionary Army.
Compared to Leona, who was full of pity and even wanted to take the entire Emperor Artifact Warehouse, Hill was very calm. To Hill, becoming an Emperor Artifact Envoy wasn't particularly important.
As long as he could stay with Lin Zhe and Leona, it would be fine.
。。。。。。
Time passed. Just like that, almost a year passed.
The border of the empire was completely engulfed in the flames of war.
The war with four countries at the same time had exhausted the dynasty, especially after they entered a stalemate. It directly exposed the weakness of the dynasty's overall economy, and it was forced to retreat in a short period of time.
It could be said that the endless war had gradually dragged down the economy of the entire empire.
Compared to the economic depression of the entire Empire, the Imperial Capital still maintained the illusion of peace and prosperity. However, the Empire was not doing well, but the four foreign races that were at war with the Empire were not doing any better.
In the original novel, the ceiling of combat power, Aiders, successfully joined the Imperial Army. Relying on his extremely powerful combat talent and combat instincts, he made a name for himself in just a year and was appreciated by the Minister of Orneste.
Of course, there were also some factors that included Ernest's wariness towards Lin Zhe and his desire to promote people who could compete with Lin Zhe.
In this one year, Lin Zhe naturally couldn't ignore Minister Ernest.
Lin Zhe didn't mind being within the Imperial Capital. He also needed to satisfy a little of Ernest's small requests and further display his strength. He hoped that the minister of Ernest would think about himself.
For Lin Zhe, who was afraid of trouble, pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger did not exist.
Lin Zhe didn't mind showing off his strength to the outside world to save some trouble.
Otherwise, Lin Zhe wouldn't have used the explosive mystic technique that had side effects to forcefully show off in front of the Orneste minister. Under the circumstances where the Imperial relic, Thousand Demon Blades, wasn't used, he instantly suppressed Aiders.
As for why Lin Zhe didn't show his strength when he faced Arya.
It was completely because Lin Zhe hadn't unlocked the Thousand Blades at that time.
Lin Zhe did not have a precise comparison and positioning of his own strength. In addition, Lin Zhe himself was not mentally prepared.
Due to various considerations, he decided to lay low and endure for a while.
Arya's family background was indeed quite powerful. If possible, Lin Zhe also hoped that Arya would be more self-aware. If she felt that it was no longer interesting, she would change her target.
In the end, Lin Zhe did not expect Arya to be so persistent in wanting to 'conquer' him.
