Chapter 275 Arresting a Prince in Front of the Entire Imperial City!
Fantasy Dreamland.
A golden pyramid, like a shooting star, fell from outer space and then abruptly stopped above a manor spanning thousands of kilometers in the capital.
"Whoosh!"
The hatch opened, and Zhou Ze, the patriarch of the Dream Demon Clan, Prin, and Bertha flew out together, followed by eight Marquis Immortals!
Such a powerful lineup immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd, but they didn't even dare to spread their mental energy over, just watching from afar, their hearts filled with shock.
With a thought, Zhou Ze put away the mechanical race spaceship on his back and, without wasting any time, led the Dream Demon Action Team directly towards the palace.
Such a high-profile move obviously attracted the attention of many people in the entire capital.
"Halt!"
The palace guards reluctantly tried to stop them.
Zhou Ze didn't make things difficult for a mere guard, but simply said, "Please inform your Emperor that the Virtual Universe Company is handling this matter."
Such a grand display had already alarmed everyone inside the palace.
Countless streaks of light flew in from inside the palace, and the two leading them were none other than the Emperor and Empress of the Dream Universe Kingdom.
"Apprentice? What are you doing here?" The emperor looked embarrassed and somewhat puzzled.
Could it be that he offended her and she deliberately made things difficult for her?
The emperor looked at his daughter, seemingly wanting an answer.
Bertha glanced at Zhou Ze, and after Zhou Ze agreed, she said, "Father, the Virtual Universe Company has issued an order for Your Highness to arrest that guy, Gado."
The Emperor was startled, and the Empress beside him paled: "What's going on? Bertha, since your mother's accident, I've never targeted you. How could you retaliate against me like this?"
"Just because of the throne?"
Bertha said impatiently, "A mere throne? With my strength, status, and position, why would I care about that? Don't underestimate me."
The Empress is usually dignified and elegant, but when she faces her own child, who is also her only son, she can't help but lose her composure.
The Emperor frowned and said, "Bessa, even if Gado has committed some offense, this is an internal matter of our Empire, and has nothing to do with Virtual Universe Company, right? No matter how serious his crime, it should be judged internally by our Empire, not interfered with by Virtual Universe Company!"
"Father, do you really think we're just looking for trouble or having nothing better to do?" Bertha frowned. "This is the first task the company gave His Highness, and we don't even know why. Obviously, the company's intelligence department has detected that Gado has committed a crime, and it's not a minor one."
"Companies generally don't concern themselves with the Empire's internal affairs, unless it's at the level of the entire human race."
The emperor's expression was complex, while the empress's eyes were filled with fear and trepidation.
Upon hearing Bertha's words, the Emperor and Empress both calmed down considerably.
Yes, throughout all these eons, the Virtual Universe Corporation has never interfered in the Empire's political affairs; it has only controlled the military.
Besides, what others may not know, they may not know that their ancestor, Venerable Dream Dream, of the Dream Dream Universe Kingdom, was himself a high-ranking member of the Virtual Universe Company.
Even if this happened without the ancestor's consent, it was still tacitly approved by the ancestor.
"This unfilial son!" The Queen could no longer contain herself and immediately rushed back, dragging the scornful Gado over with a trail of sparks and lightning.
"Father, Mother—" Gado's heart tightened, and when he saw Bertha, he couldn't help but shout angrily:
"Bessa, it's you!"
"Were you deliberately trying to cause me trouble? I knew you weren't giving up on the throne!"
"Trash! You're not even an Immortal, who gave you the audacity to speak to a Marquis-level Immortal like that!"
Bertha merely revealed her aura, yet Gato felt as if the sky had fallen; this was a difference in their levels of existence.
Jiaduo felt as if his entire being, including his soul, was being weighed down by an immense burden, making it impossible for him to even breathe.
"Swish swish~"
People from all over the capital flew towards this place. Those with higher strength and status flew further away, while those with lower strength and status stayed at a distance and dared not approach.
"Alright, this is a company order. I won't say more. If you have any objections, communicate directly with our company's senior management," Zhou Ze said calmly.
"Chief Prin."
Prin immediately understood: "The moment he released his aura, the entire imperial city was enveloped in an invincible pressure of being a king, and trembled."
A being who has been crowned king and is invincible, even in the imperial city of the Dream Universe Kingdom, he is basically an absolutely invincible being.
It should be noted that all those who have been granted the title of Immortal King, even the weaker ones, disdain the recruitment efforts of the Cosmic Kingdom, let alone the Invincible King.
Faced with the overwhelming pressure of the invincible King, most people couldn't sense it; in any case, it was incredibly strong, stronger than they could imagine. Only a few veteran immortals showed a drastic change in expression.
"This overwhelming pressure definitely comes from an invincible king-level expert!"
"Invincible at the King-level, truly worthy of being one of the five great giants of the human race, casually producing an invincible King-level being!"
"For a king to be invincible and obey the orders of a mere exiled domain lord is somewhat absurd."
"Becoming a King is invincible! Not to mention this level, if I could break through to the King level in my lifetime, I would be completely satisfied."
Hearing the surrounding chatter, Zhou Ze frowned slightly and said calmly, "I'm taking Jia Duo with me. This is an order from Virtual Universe Company. If you have any objections, you can report them to the company."
Bertha glanced coldly at Gadot and said, "Gadot, you're quite capable, aren't you? You've done quite a lot behind the scenes, even getting directly involved in the internal affairs of our empire from the company's top management."
"Ah—"
"Bessa, it's you! It was definitely you on purpose! You just wanted to get revenge on me, didn't you? You wanted to ascend the throne, so you used the censor to eliminate me, the person with the best chance of ascending the throne—" Gato roared in fear and anxiety.
"Send them away," Zhou Ze said, frowning.
Chief Prin glanced at the youngest member of the clan, a warrior in armor. The young man immediately understood and unleashed his Marquis-level Immortal Divine Power, grabbing Jia Duo, who was still spitting out words, and gagging him. He then followed closely behind Zhou Ze and the others.
In front of the Emperor and Empress, a prince was taken away, and no one dared to stop it. Even the Emperor and Empress themselves could not muster the slightest resistance.
"What exactly did Prince Jiaduo do in secret?"
"He's always been very close to the Black family; it must be related to them."
"The Black family? That infamous slave-trading family?"
"It shouldn't be so bad that Virtual Universe Corporation would directly intervene. Although the Black family is disgusting, they are quite law-abiding; they basically capture slaves within their own territory—"
"have no idea-"
The onlookers began to discuss it.
The emperor and empress's expressions changed constantly, and the empress repeatedly pleaded with tears in her eyes:
"Your Majesty, no matter what Jiaduo has done, he is still your child—"
"Shut up!" the Emperor snapped coldly. "Virtual Universe Corporation never interferes in our internal affairs, but this time they've personally issued an arrest order. Clearly, this is no simple matter."
"It has definitely risen to the level of the entire human race—"
The emperor no longer cares about his rebellious son; he is only concerned with his own safety and the throne.
Even if he was completely unaware of such a major event occurring during his term, he would certainly be implicated.
