Twilight Speaker

Chapter 208 Cutting out the roots
"The king has arrived!"

With a sharp cry, Queen White Star stepped in front of the Meng's Manor, and the whole manor became chaotic.

"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for many years."

Surrounded by many guards, the old duke in his twilight years came hurriedly to greet them, with a look of emotion on his face.

"Yes, Mr. Meng."

Queen White Star nodded calmly:

"The last time I saw you was when I was a kid, right? I remember the birthday party my father held for me was hundreds of years ago."

He walked leisurely into the manor, with only one follower following him.

Queen White Star looked around the manor and smiled as she spoke:
"This place is still the same. There has been no major changes over the past thousand years. It seems that you, Mr. Meng, are very nostalgic and have always maintained the same."

"I am a nostalgic person."

The old duke coughed lightly, waved away the respectful guards, and said with a smile:
"I just don't know why your majesty is here in person?"

"On a whim, I wanted to come and see you."

Queen White Star smiled:

"Why, can't it?"

"It is a great honor for me and our Meng family that you are here in person."

The old duke coughed again:
"I'll show you in."

Queen White Star nodded calmly, walked slowly along the path towards the main building of the manor, and asked intentionally or unintentionally:

"By the way, where is Duke Meng?"

"This old minister doesn't know."

The old duke smiled helplessly:
"You know, I was seriously injured back then, and I have been sleeping for hundreds of years. I just woke up for a moment today, and you came in person. As for that brat, I really don't know where he ran off to."

Queen White Star smiled slightly:

"Duke Meng Tu has managed the Meng family well over the years. The Meng family can be said to be thriving. I wanted to confer the title of king on you a few days ago. The Meng family is now qualified to be kings."

"How dare I, how dare I"

The two chatted casually, and the black-armored guards beside them remained silent. A group of three walked into the main building, and Queen White Star sat in the main seat.

He sighed and spoke:
"Do you remember the time when I was ten years old and the enemy attacked? If you hadn't been seriously injured while protecting me, you would have entered the realm of True God long ago. Why would you have retired?"

The old duke smiled dully:

"I never regret anything."

"I know I know."

The Queen sighed again, but suddenly changed the subject:
"In recent years, the world has become increasingly chaotic. A few days ago, the red moon fell from the sky. The gods may return one after another. The Great City has also begun to go crazy. A new world war or even a war of gods will not be too far away."

After a pause, he continued:

"But at the moment, the situation in our White Star Country is not good. It can be said that we are in trouble both internally and externally. Inside, the Secret Society is rampant, the Order Cult is dormant, and the Knowledge Demons are emerging in an endless stream."

The old duke sighed heavily:
"It's a pity that I am no longer what I used to be. Otherwise, I would have cleared up everything for Your Majesty."

Queen Shirahoshi smiled but did not answer. She continued to speak:

"Mr. Meng, there is one principle in governing a country that never changes, which is that you must first stabilize the country before you can resist foreign aggression. This saying comes from the Donghong Kingdom. I think it makes a lot of sense. What do you think?"

The old duke's pupils shrank slightly, and he finally confirmed that His Majesty was coming for the Meng family.

He was silent for a moment, poured a cup of hot tea for the queen, and sighed:
"We must first stabilize the country before we can resist foreign aggression. But Your Majesty, as you said, the world is changing, chaos is imminent, and the gods are about to come. In this situation, it may not be a good thing to stir up large-scale unrest in the country."

"Can the Meng family cause a large-scale riot?"

Queen White Star was surprised and said:
"If you had not been injured back then, and if you were a true god now, you could indeed do it. But Elder Meng, you are not a true god after all."

The old duke lowered his head:
"That's true, but the Meng family has taken deep roots in White Star for thousands of years. If we try to uproot them, there will be chaos, and the vitality of White Star will inevitably be damaged."

"presumptuous!"

The black-armored attendant at the side was shocked, and a terrifying aura surged from his body. He suddenly pressed towards the old duke, with his sword unsheathed!

"stop."

Queen White Star stopped the black-armored attendant, looked at the old duke, and shook her head slightly:

"I understand what you said, Mr. Meng, so I plan to make a quick decision."

As they were talking, there was a commotion outside. One hovercraft after another came rushing over, accompanied by the sound of footsteps like muffled drums.

At some point, the huge Meng's Manor had been surrounded by soldiers, and three large warships even descended from the sky, and their main guns began to warm up.

The old duke's brows twitched:

"Your Majesty, can you give me a way to live?"

"Again."

Queen White Star spoke calmly:
"As you said, the Meng family has deep roots in the White Star Country. If we want to uproot this towering tree, we have to use lightning speed without any hesitation."

He paused, and continued, "Meng's many properties should have been seized by now, and the nobles who had marriage alliances have also been temporarily detained. Today, everything should be settled with Elder Meng. You saved my life, so you should be allowed to stay alive, but you must serve in the palace from now on, and cannot leave."

The old prince looked up, but without answering, he repeated:
"Your Majesty, are you really not going to give me any chance to survive?"

"I also want to give you a chance to live, but who will give me one?"

As they were talking, the army was advancing, the outer walls of the manor were pushed down one after another, and one after another, the Meng family members, maids, and guards were beheaded - no one was left alive.

Therefore, no arrest was made.

Blood is flowing.

Many military floating vehicles in the sky fired at the same time, and the land in the manor was blown up piece by piece.
Li Quan and the witch, who were in a quiet courtyard, fled in panic, not knowing what was happening!
“Lots of soldiers.”

Li Quan caught a glimpse of the densely packed soldiers outside the manor, and his expression suddenly changed. The witch beside him collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath, and spoke in fear:
"Look. Look at that!"

Li Quan followed her gaze and saw a carriage. It was an ancient carriage that was very inconsistent with the advanced technology of the White Star Country. There were golden patterns engraved on it and a purple gold flower!

"Yes Yes."

Li Quan's eyes froze, his hairs stood on end, and he spoke almost in a groaning voice:
"It's the White Star Lord's royal carriage."

The two were silent, horrified, and shocked. They looked at the artillery fire in the sky and the soldiers who broke into the manor one after another. They realized that it was over.

Even with that mysterious and terrifying old man, it's all over.

The Lord of the White Star, Her Majesty the Queen, is the legendary true God!!

How many true gods are there in the entire human civilization?
No more than 20 or 30 people at most!

The witch also slumped on the ground. Suddenly, she received a spiritual warning. She raised her head slowly, only to see a heavy artillery falling from the sky.

The psychic heavy artillery specially made by the White Star Nation can harm extraordinary people.

The two were destroyed in the heavy artillery fire.

This is just the beginning.

Maids and guards were fleeing, but were either killed or beheaded.
A woman holding a baby knelt down and begged for mercy from the military officer, but she was chopped into two pieces along with the baby in her arms!

Amid the roar of various psychic artillery fire, the ground was shattered, and the soldiers were like wolves and tigers, faithfully carrying out the orders of their superiors.
Anyone you see, regardless of age or gender, will be killed!
The smell of gunpowder became heavier, and the blood dyed the broken land red.

The entire manor was reduced to a dead ruin, with the only intact part being the main building.

At this moment, inside the main building.

Queen White Star stood up slowly and looked down at the old duke:
"White Star Country has treated you well, why do you want to collude with the evil cult? I am the one who is confused and heartbroken. Mr. Meng, tie yourself up."

The old duke listened to the screams, wails, and roars of artillery fire until all the sounds died down. He then raised his head and spoke sadly:
"Your Majesty, why is it so?"

"I don't need to explain the principle of cutting the grass at its roots."

Queen White Star spoke calmly:
"Before you came, I had already issued an order to kill everyone. There will be no survivors in the Meng family. If you are willing to tie yourself up, you can be the only survivor."

He paused, as if he had realized something, lowered his head to look down at his feet, and smiled silently:

"Is there anyone else down here?"

The next moment.

The main guns of the battleships in the sky turned slightly, and extreme light was gathering and being born, and finally condensed into a blazing sun.
A moment later, the psychic main cannon roared and the scorching sun suddenly set.

The entire main building was blown to pieces, smoke and dust scattered, the ground was torn apart and began to collapse, and a huge underground palace appeared!

The entire vast manor became a complete death place.

In the midst of smoke and dust, the old duke dusted himself off and said in pain:
"If I want to escape, even you will find it difficult to stop me, unless the Pope of Thinking takes action as well. Can you leave a way for my useless great-grandson to survive?"

“There is no room for negotiation.”

Queen White Star didn't even look at the old duke, but stared coldly at the underground palace:

"The Meng family is really hiding deep. As I said before, kill them all. I will not leave any enemies for myself or the White Star Country. Mercy is sometimes a sin."

While talking.

In the sky, the main guns of the three warships began to accumulate power again, and the aurora was so bright that it seemed as if there were three suns!

Under the extremely high temperature, the remaining members of the Meng family in the manor began to scream and melt, and their thousand-year foundation was destroyed in an instant!
just.

suddenly.

With a rumbling sound, the exposed underground palace swayed slightly, the stone door slowly opened, and a withered old man walked out, followed by many people, all of whom slowly walked out of it.
The skinny old man was leaning on a cane, with dozens of people behind him fanatically and devoutly.

"Order Cult?"

Queen White Star shook her head, looking down at everything from a high position with indifference, and saw Meng Tu mixed in.
He then closed his eyes in disappointment and sighed:

"It is true. So."

After a pause, Queen Shirahoshi opened her eyes coldly and issued another order:
"Cut the grass and get rid of it"

Before he could finish his words, he heard a buzzing sound and saw the seemingly ordinary and withered old man raise his head, stare at him, and then snap his fingers crisply.

Everything suddenly changed dramatically.
