Sun Fei's expression was solemn.

He recognized the burly man in the yellow outfit as an intelligence agent from the underground intelligence system [ the Letters and Visits Office ] in Chambord City.

Tonight, during the great battle of Chambord City, Sun Fei Summon the mercenary leader Kashya to Chambord City to assist in the battle. The [ Letters and Visits Office ] was unable to transmit the information through the magic Teleport immediately and had to dispatch horses on an urgent mission. It seems that something big has indeed happened; otherwise, given the steady nature of young Modrić, he wouldn't be so anxious.

Taking the magic letter from the burly man, Sun Fei gestured for Torres to put the yellow-clad man's clothes on for treatment. Amidst everyone's curious gazes, Sun Fei opened the letter, glanced at it, and his expression changed drastically. After pondering for a long time, he didn't say anything. With a flick of his wrist, he sent the letter floating lightly into the hands of Dominguez, the second prince of the empire, in the VIP seating area.

Dominguez looked at Sun Fei with a hint of doubt before unfolding the letter and reading it carefully.

The next instant, even the usually composed imperial prince's expression changed drastically. His hand, gripping the letter, trembled uncontrollably, and for the first time, anxiety and anger appeared on his face.

This scene only intensified the curiosity of everyone around.

What on earth happened to cause King of Chambord and Dominguez to lose their composure like this?

After reading the letter in his hand, Dominguez handed it to his two trusted confidants, [ The Alluring Witch ] and [ Red Beard ], behind him. The two men read it with suspicious expressions, and their faces changed drastically, revealing an incredulous look. The next moment, their gazes turned to King of Chambord in the distance.

Dominguez stepped out from the VIP seats, approached Sun Fei, paused as if organizing his thoughts, and after a long while, stared into Sun Fei's eyes and asked, " Alexander, given this situation, will Chambord City stand idly by?"

Everyone was puzzled, wondering why the prince would ask such a question.

King of Chambord nodded. " Chambord City is a member of the Zenit Empire, so naturally it won't stand idly by. However, now is not the time for Chambord City to get involved."

The Second Prince Dominguez, looked intently at Sun Fei Sun Fei, staring into his eyes as if trying to discern something from Sun Fei. After a long pause, he nodded. "Alright, I believe you. As a friend, I trust you will make the right decision."

Having said that, the prince, handsome as an enchantress, suddenly turned around, strode up to the officials accompanying the imperial delegation, and shouted, "Issue the order: everyone in the delegation must prepare immediately, discard all heavy baggage, and ride light armor and fast horses. Set off within ten minutes and return to Saint Petersburg tonight!"

The imperial delegation left the square in a hurry.

" Alexander, I hope we can meet again in this life." The alluring and Alluring Witch Paris, her eyes filled with complex emotions, turned back at the edge of the square with a smile, her words carrying a rare hint of desolation and pessimism. Without saying more, she disappeared into the vast night with the Second Prince and his entourage.

"It seems something catastrophic has happened in the capital of Zenit. Could it be... could it be that the legendary Emperor Yassin, who is said to be nearing the end of his life, has finally succumbed to his injuries and the ravages of time and passed away? Only something like this could make the second prince of Zenit, Dominguez, so anxious and impatient. As everyone knows, the struggle for the throne between the two princes of Zenit has reached a fever pitch. With Emperor Yassin's death, the battle for the throne will finally be over!"

Some of the more astute individuals have already begun to speculate.

"I wonder which prince King of Chambord will support? Rumors circulated recently that King of Chambord and the eldest prince, Arshavin, almost turned against each other and have already fallen out. It seems the second prince, Dominguez, is going to gain a huge advantage. That eldest prince is really unlucky; he just had to be an enemy of King of Chambord. If he knew the strength Chambord City had displayed tonight, he'd probably regret it to the core!"

As everyone was speculating, King of Chambord suddenly rose from his throne, glanced around, and waved his hand, announcing loudly, "Tonight's wedding ceremony is now concluded. I am very grateful that you have traveled from afar to attend my wedding. I would be honored if you could stay in Chambord City for a few more days. I have prepared some gifts, and I would like to ask your envoys to convey them to your respective empires, hoping that the friendship between Chambord City and the various empires can continue."

After saying that, Sun Fei led his group of experts and left Tiananmen Square.

Although the people in the VIP area were curious and wanted to know what had happened, they dared not press the matter further. They could only stand up to offer their congratulations, exchange pleasantries, and then hurriedly take their leave.

Night fell, enveloping Tiananmen Square, which had just witnessed an epic battle.

Chambord City fell into a long silence.

Sun Fei, along with a group of civil and military officials, hurriedly left the square.

Seeing the King's solemn expression, everyone was filled with curiosity, but dared not ask a question. Drogba and Pierce, the two idiots, were so frustrated that they huddled together and whispered to each other, feeling as uncomfortable as if they were crawling with lice.

The group arrived at the entrance of the Chambord City Administrative Center. Sun Fei turned to look at everyone and said, "Notify all officials above the rank of minister in the city, as well as the elite students graduating from the Civil and Martial University, to immediately proceed to Conference Room Number One [ City of Heroes ]..." Sun Fei paused, then suddenly remembered something, shook his head, and smiled, saying, "Never mind, everyone's been working hard all night. Let's get some rest first. The Urban Management Brigade, please work hard tonight and maintain vigilance. Send out scouts within a hundred miles of the city. Report back immediately if there's any disturbance. As for the meeting, well, let's reschedule it for tomorrow morning. Haha, this is my wedding day; I can't waste my energy on such trivial matters."

After saying that, he looked at the mercenary leader, Kashya, and said, "Some things have happened in the capital. I'll have to trouble you to go back and Modrić Kashya have all the personnel in the [ Letters and Visits Office ] lie low for now, not to show themselves, to preserve their strength, and to await further orders."

Kashya nodded and turned to stand in front of the Valkyrie Elena.

This taciturn and sparingly eloquent top expert of the [ Rogue Encampment ] rarely smiled for the first time. He affectionately patted Elena's shoulder, looked at the [ Flower of the Rogue ] before him like his own daughter, and his eyes showed a kind expression. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, he said nothing. He smiled slightly, turned around abruptly, instantly opened Teleport, stepped into it, and disappeared.

Sun Fei smiled slightly, about to say something, when suddenly he sensed something, his expression changed, he stopped speaking, and looked up at the dark night sky in the south, extremely absorbed, as if waiting for something to appear.

Everyone was puzzled and about to ask when, in the next instant, Lampard and the other Moon Class experts also changed color and looked up at the night sky.

This is the third update; one more will follow shortly.
