After returning to the hotel, Qin Ze immediately contacted Brother Yuanzi and told him everything that had happened.
After listening, Brother Yuanzi only said two words.
"Return."
Initially, Yao Yuan thought he could take advantage of the internal strife within the Maka Race to break free from their continued exploitation of Human Race and also gain some benefits.
But he never imagined that the world of the Maka Race would be in such chaos.
The world could be destroyed if we are not careful.
The first objective has now been achieved.
For Qin Ze's safety, he felt it was time to recall Qin Ze.
Qin Ze nodded obediently upon hearing this. "I'll go to Torch City tomorrow."
He then ended his communication with Brother Yuanzi and threw the black card into his storage ring.
So far, Qin Ze has already reaped considerable benefits from this trip to the Maka Race.
But he wasn't ready to go back just yet.
The turmoil among the Maka Race has only just begun.
He stayed to watch the fun, partly because he wanted to catch a big fish in troubled waters.
As for his promise to go back to Brother Yuanzi, he didn't say when he would go back.
This was his first time visiting the Maka Race, and he wasn't very familiar with the area.
Getting lost on the way to Torch City and being delayed for a few days is quite reasonable, right?
"Move closer to the area around the palace."
"Keep Thousand Faces eye on the Fifth Prince as much as possible."
Qin Ze deployed his clones via the Local Area Network.
He then turned on the television; the news was reporting on the recent attack on the mission.
"The attack resulted in the deaths of two members of the Blue Flame Mission and injuries to several others."
"The ceasefire negotiations have been suspended indefinitely."
"War has reignited in the Northern Continent, and has already affected four provinces."
"Foreign tribes held a large-scale demonstration in the capital, condemning the Maka People for breaking their promise and staging the attack."
The footage shows the streets of the capital bustling with people.
A large group of people from other ethnic groups are protesting again.
Shortly afterward, the Imperial Guard arrived at the scene.
No bloodshed occurred.
This time, the marchers weren't as headstrong as they were last time.
Upon seeing the Imperial Guard, they dispersed.
Qin Ze sneered inwardly.
As expected, the attack on the mission was once again the work of the Fifth Prince.
That Blue Flame Hunter had met the Fifth Prince once before, and unknowingly his thinking had been influenced by the prince.
The Hunter' disapproval of the insects was the spark that ignited the conflict, and the Fifth Prince used his abilities to directly set that spark on fire.
For Shadow, war not only cannot stop, but must continue to expand in scale.
Only when enough people die can the World Overlord successfully awaken.
Nowadays, everyone thinks they are a hunter.
But what neither side knew was that the New Hunter Circus had secretly joined the hunt.
For the next few days, Qin Ze lived a very simple life, going back and forth between two places.
In the morning, I went to the palace to teach the Fifth Prince Fire Movement Technique; in the evening, I went back to the hotel to sleep.
During this period, he met with Ling several more times at the palace.
Ling seemed unwilling to involve him, an outsider, in this turmoil.
In his words, regardless of the final outcome, it was the Blue Flame People's own choice.
Although Qin Ze practices Fire Movement Technique, he is not one of their people and does not need to shed blood for them.
He's a really nice person.
The war in the Northern Continent is escalating.
The Blue Flame People suffered repeated defeats, and the Imperial First Army and Second Army had penetrated deep into the heart of the continent.
Qin Ze asked Ling twice when he would make his move, but the old man remained silent.
The capital city has become increasingly turbulent lately.
Protests by people of other ethnicities have become commonplace.
At night, many parts of the capital city are attacked.
The Imperial Guard were busy putting out fires everywhere, playing a cat-and-mouse game with the foreign tribes.
Knowing that their overall strength was inferior, the foreign tribes simply avoided direct confrontation with the Imperial Guard, instead resorting to guerrilla warfare and sabotage, which kept the Imperial Guard busy dealing with them.
The atmosphere in the capital gradually became tense.
The phrase "a storm is brewing" perfectly captures this feeling.
That day, Qin Ze finished his routine instruction of the Fifth Prince and prepared to return to the hotel.
Before leaving, the Fifth Prince suddenly added, "Mr. Qin, don't be late tomorrow."
Qin Ze clearly sensed that there was something more to the other person's words.
"Your Highness, rest assured, I am always very punctual."
After Qin Ze left, the Fifth Prince stretched and said, "After laying the groundwork for so long, it's time to close the net."
Just in case, go and check again to make sure you haven't missed planting any.
Gong Shangyu nodded. "I'll go right away."
On the way back to the hotel, Qin Ze heard some shocking news on the car radio.
Due to the war in the north, a referendum on the Equality Act could not be held, and Council voted on it this morning.
The final result was 361 votes against, 27 votes in favor, and 12 abstentions.
Opposition to the bill far outnumbered any other bill, Equality Act failed to pass.
According to imperial law, the next referendum will not be held for at least another year.
Qin Ze glanced at the relatively calm street outside the car and said casually, "The wind is picking up."
That night, a curfew was imposed in the capital, Imperial Guard dispatched a large number of men to patrol.
Even so, the foreign tribes launched attacks from multiple points, resulting in the largest offensive to date.
The explosions and screams continued throughout the entire night.
The next morning, Qin Ze didn't see the driver who usually picked him up at the hotel entrance. Instead, he saw an unexpected person.
Why is it you?
Qin Ze looked at the dignified and elegant Gong Shangyu, wondering what the other party was up to.
Gong Shangyu opened the back door of the car. "The turmoil from last night is still ongoing, and His Highness is worried about your safety."
Qin Ze said calmly, "So you're saying you're pretty good at fighting?"
Gong Shangyu replied, "I wouldn't call it a fighting match, but it's more than enough to deal with some small fry."
Qin Ze feigned great surprise. "I didn't expect you to be not only a musician, but also a martial artist."
Gong Shangyu humbly replied, "I know a little bit."
This was the first time Qin Ze had ever seen her talk so much.
She seems to be in a very good mood today.
"Let's hurry, don't keep His Highness waiting."
Qin Ze sat in the back seat.
Gong Shangyu is the driver today.
Shortly after starting the car, she turned on the radio, and the host's slightly flustered voice came through.
"An urgent report has just arrived from the northern front."
" The Imperial First Army and Second Army of the Empire were completely annihilated in the central part of the Northern Continent."
"The despicable rebels have laid an ambush."
"The rebels are advancing from the Northern Continent, preparing for a major counter-offensive. Border residents, please evacuate to safe locations immediately..."
Qin Ze was somewhat surprised; the Reversal of the Two Poles seemed rather sudden.
The Imperial First Army and the Second Army combined number no more than 300,000, which is insignificant to the 2 billion-strong Maka Race.
At this rate, the war could continue for decades before the Dominator has a chance to awaken.
Ying clearly didn't have that patience.
Qin Ze was very curious about what other tricks the other party had up their sleeve.
"Mr. Qin, did you sleep well last night?"
So-so.
Qin Ze and the Fifth Prince met at the martial arts arena as usual.
Rumble--
A loud explosion suddenly came from the city, very close to the royal palace.
The foreign tribes are becoming increasingly "fierce," and they are making good use of the daytime hours.
The explosions continued and drew ever closer to the palace.
Qin Ze said, "Your Highness, you may begin practicing breathing techniques."
The Fifth Prince shook his head. "Let's not practice Fire Movement Technique today, let's talk about something else."
Qin Ze raised his eyebrows. "What would Your Highness like to talk about?"
Fifth Prince: "Let's talk about your world."
