67: Chapter 67 Pink and Delicate, How Old Are You Now?

Inside the inner palace, Vera and Veronica were also studying this thing called a dark.

Currently, this thing can be used to make calls, send emails, read e-books, and take photos; it doesn't actually have many built-in functions.

What's truly impressive is that the phone can connect to the artificial intelligence on the dwarf starship.

"dark, hello." Veronica tried speaking into the microphone.

"I am here." The AI responded quickly.

"Abominable Intelligence, it's Abominable Intelligence!" Vera was frightened, unable to even hold her phone steady.

"What is the 'Men of Iron Rebellion' about?" Veronica asked.

"..." The AI calculated for a few seconds. "Hello user, there is no record of the 'Men of Iron Rebellion' in my database. I presume the entry you wish to know about is 'The Golden Age Total Civil War'. Would you like to access this record?"

"No, no need, I was just asking casually."

Veronica was also terrified; her courage was actually only slightly greater than Vera's.

"Mistress Veronica, His Majesty has flipped your tablet, please prepare."

"Understood." Veronica replied.

She had finally made it to this day. Ever since the Emperor had listed Veronica as a concubine, half a month had passed without him summoning her once, as if he had forgotten her.

"Men... they ultimately prefer fresh meat." Vera said sourly.

"Lady Vera, you are going too."

"Ah..."

Earlier, Second Attendant Cheng Yu had brought two wooden tablets for the Emperor to flip. Main Body laughed and said, "Why flip them for just two people? Just call them both over!"

"That won't do, Your Majesty. That would violate the thirty-second article of the Harem Iron Law you established in the 'Imperial Truth'."

"Screw your dormitory manager, you're trying to manage me now? Call them over, go!"

Vera's birthday had already passed, so she was twenty-nine this year. Veronica was one year younger than her, twenty-eight... Main Body indeed liked women older than himself; older sisters were gentler, after all.

"Veronica, be brave, don't be afraid!"

On the way to the Emperor's bedchamber, Vera was touching up her makeup, and Veronica was psyching herself up.

Vera was not without schemes. Although she had provided Veronica with a lot of help, including giving her plenty of money so she could send people outside the palace to purchase expensive clothes and cosmetics.

However, Vera did not tell Veronica about the Emperor's preferences, letting her wear a pale pink long dress.

"This concubine pays respects to Your Majesty."

When the two arrived at the bedchamber, Main Body was eating.

Official business had run late today. The food from the Imperial Kitchen had been heated, cooled, and heated again, becoming a complete mess; he could only make do with a bit.

"Tender pink, how old are you now?"

Main Body was indeed displeased, and the corners of Vera's mouth curled into an imperceptible arc.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Veronica was terrified, tears swirling in her eyes.

"We're family, why are you crying?" Cheng Yu raised his eyes. "Add two pairs of chopsticks, and eat with me."

The two women had actually already eaten, but when the Emperor tells you to eat... you had better eat obediently.

"Are you adapting to life here recently?"

"Replying to Your Majesty, it is quite good, and Sister Vera takes good care of me."

"It's good that you're adapting." Main Body drank a small cup of deer blood wine. "I have already heard about your family's affairs. The Corpse Emperor Empire is decadent and cruel; such things would never happen in my country."

"Mm..." Veronica knew that the Emperor's eyes and ears were everywhere in the world; naturally, nothing could be hidden from him.

"By the way, you mentioned last time that some things in my 'Imperial Truth' were incorrect. Where are they incorrect? Tell me."

Veronica brought up a few points she had pondered over. They were all instances where Main Body had been too hasty when writing the 'Imperial Truth', failing to connect it with the actual situation of the Warhammer Universe, leading to rigid application.

"Not bad, you have insight. I like women with insight."

Vera giggled.

"Your Majesty~ These topics are so boring, let's rest~"

Vera didn't care about this or that; at first, she was a bit awkward because Veronica was there.

Now that she thought about it carefully... when the two of them were being intimate before, wasn't Veronica sometimes serving at the door? What was there to be awkward about?

"Hahaha, my beloved concubine is right. We shouldn't talk about this while eating; it's bad for digestion."

Vera had already sat in Main Body's lap, feeding him the deer blood wine mouth-to-mouth. The corners of Vera's mouth were stained with deer blood, looking both seductive and enchanting.

Second Attendant Cheng Yu waved away all the guards and palace maids, and even closed the main door as he left.

"Cheng Tianbin" system.

Palace Attendant Cheng Yu was leading a team to test the functions of the "heirloom seal of the realm".

The reason this artifact was called the heirloom seal of the realm was because the bottom was engraved with the eight characters "Having received the mandate from heaven, may one enjoy eternal prosperity" in bird-worm seal script, consistent with the legendary heirloom seal of the realm.

According to the Chaos Warriors Volax, who had abandoned darkness for light, this seal-shaped artifact had the ability to reshape nature and turn barren worlds into habitable planets, but he did not know how to use it specifically.

The Chaos Warband that Volax originally belonged to had tried all sorts of methods, sacrificing a vast amount of flesh and souls, and pouring in massive amounts of energy from Warp, but the seal showed no reaction.

Palace Attendant Cheng Yu also tried various methods, but the seal remained unmoved. However, this thing was definitely extraordinary, because no method could destroy it. This indestructible characteristic must be an artifact of the Golden Age.

At his wit's end, Palace Attendant Cheng Yu could only send an urgent shared-thought email to Cheng Yu.

"Throw it in the water, throw the seal into the water!"

Cheng Yu was busy exercising right now; where would he have the time to go into a long discussion with him?

"..." Palace Attendant Cheng Yu could not understand this decree, but he would not and dared not question the Emperor.

Coincidentally, there was a fairly large lake nearby, so Palace Attendant Cheng Yu threw the seal in.

Five minutes passed.

Ten minutes passed.

One standard hour passed...

Except for the waves kicked up by the strong wind, nothing happened.

"Superintendent, let's go down and fish the seal back up." The captain of the Necron Rifle Squad, Cheng Yu, said.

"Presumptuous! Are you saying His Majesty was wrong?" Palace Attendant Cheng Yu's eyes flashed with a fierce light.

"This subordinate dares not."

"Slap yourself."

Palace Attendant Cheng Yu stood on the spot and waited for a full two hours, while the captain of the Necron Rifle Squad, Cheng Yu, also stood on the spot and slapped himself for two hours, until his teeth were all slapped out.

"That's enough. Does it hurt?"

"Woo woo... no pain..."

"It hits your body, but it pains my heart."

Palace Attendant Cheng Yu pinched his orchid fingers and pressed a handkerchief onto the face of the Necron Rifle Squad captain, Cheng Yu. "Those of us who work in the palace need to be sharp-minded and cautious in our speech... You must be angry in your heart today, but in the future, you will thank me."

Just as the Necron Rifle Squad captain was mumbling, not knowing what he was saying, the ground by the lake suddenly began to shake. At first, it was just a slight tremor, but soon the amplitude of the shaking became so large that it was difficult for people to stand.

"Earthquake?"

"No, it's the artifact taking effect. Godfather, run!"
