Chapter 1286: Chapter 658: Sudden Attack, Adam Ambushed—The Holy Emperor Succession Struggle

He had a unique advantage, allowing him to contact Li Ming directly. After so haggling a few months ago, he obtained a portion of the factory price privilege, increasing his profits.

Although he himself did not need Star Coins, he was no longer a lone wolf, having a vast network of connections to maintain, and the consumption of resources was ever-expanding.

Not to ntion a no-loss profit, it was simply a huge profit. Not only could it be sold for money, but it could also be given away.

However, such good tis did not last long. Two months ago, his goods began to be frequently inspected.

At first, he didn’t pay much attention, as it’s the duty of the Border Affairs Ministry, and he could accept a one in ten inspection rate, but this ratio had expanded to six in ten.

Even with channel advantages, there was still profit, but this was not just business as usual; it was soone targeting him.

“Minister Martin, this is too much.” Abel softened his stance; he didn’t know whose side this guy was on.

The appointnt or removal of this position required his father’s personal approval, so it wouldn’t be that easy to get rid of him.

“What does Your Highness an? I really don’t understand.” Martin decided to feign ignorance.

Abel stared at him helplessly, his expression changing several tis, but he remained expressionless and said, “I want to report soone smuggling.”

“No problem.” Martin quickly entered work mode, pulling out a report form from the drawer, “Please, Your Highness, fill out the details, specifying the target of the report, smuggling route, ti of entry, and source of information…”

Abel looked grim as he stared fixedly at the minister’s smiling face before him.

Not knowing how long had passed, his smart terminal vibrated slightly in his arms, breaking the increasingly tense atmosphere.

Martin casually picked up the report form on the table, while Abel took out his smart terminal, finding a ssage from Costate.

Even though it had anti-peeping features, he didn’t open it, just got up with a blank face, said nothing, and left through the door.

Martin’s expression tightened, and he only let out a cold snort, picked up the wine glass in front of Abel, drank it in one gulp, and spat, “Truly terrible.”

Out the door, the bodyguard behind quickly followed. It was not until he boarded the private spaceship that he opened the smart terminal, with a very brief ssage that caused Abel’s face to change dramatically.

“The Wandering Emperor Ship has returned. The Holy Emperor summons you, co quickly to this location.”

Below was a coordinate code.

The Wandering Emperor Ship is back?

In Abel’s heart, surprise surged; after discovering the individual power of the Azure Dragon, which could threaten himself, his father had left aboard the Wandering Emperor Ship.

Even though later Malcolm and Gutierrez, who fled with him, had returned and made public appearances, Adam did not appear, leading to much ridicule.

But Abel understood; how could the Holy Emperor of the Empire be the sa as Malcolm and Gutierrez, those temporary rulers?

To put it harshly, kill one and you can imdiately push out a second one.

But unexpectedly, the Wandering Emperor Ship ca back so abruptly, and the first thing was to summon him.

Could it be… Abel couldn’t help but feel a surge of heat in his heart.

He imdiately had the spaceship change course, heading for the coordinate location. The Empire Capital was extrely complex, surrounded by artificial planets and a multitude of satellites.

Switching several regional guidance systems, he arrived at a satellite, which was a private satellite.

But after landing, he found Costate already waiting here, surrounded by the Holy Emperor’s Guard, exuding a strong aura.

Abel walked up, about to speak, but was interrupted by Costate, who said solemnly, “Don’t ask, don’t speak, follow to the Wandering Emperor Ship.”

To the Wandering Emperor Ship?

Abel shuddered, imdiately followed by a surge of ecstatic joy in his heart.

Under normal circumstances, only the Holy Emperor knew the location of the Wandering Emperor Ship, which more than represented a rise in his father’s esteem for him.

Suppressing his excitent, he nodded heavily, following Costate into a nearby palace, where there was only a spatial tunnel.

After stepping in, Abel only felt dizzy, and when he regained his senses, he was already in a dock.

Surrounded by gray and black tal walls, even though the lights were bright, it inevitably made the place feel oppressive.

In the distance was a giant tal ship, docked on the platform, its dull black coating seed to swallow all light, and the seemingly heavy hull edges actually concealed fractal structures, appearing elegantly understated, extrely low-key.

After all, being for “wandering,” it naturally couldn’t be too luxurious.

“This is the Wandering Emperor Ship…” Abel took a deep breath. Being able to co here represented a kind of recognition, he might… might…

Hmm!?

His gaze slid down from the Wandering Emperor Ship to the platform, his expression suddenly freezing, as a group of people were standing there.

“…Arthur, Yagus, Yatoldo…”

Abel was very familiar with those people; they were all his brothers.

Including himself, there were seven in total, all of Adam’s sons were here.

This…

Like a bucket of cold water poured down, Abel realized this was not a special favor, and the heat in his heart instantly dissipated.

Having followed Costate to the front, his face showed increasing disgust, and those brothers, whether brawny or kindly, looked at him with equally deep-seated loathing in their eyes.

“Here he cos…” One of them spoke, Eldest Prince Arthur, with a gentle expression.

“Very disappointed, huh…” Soone beside him added.

Everyone understood what this phrase ant.

Costate didn’t give them a chance to continue the conversation, saying solemnly, “Everyone’s here, follow .”

The crowd collected themselves; now was not the ti for open fighting, as everyone was very curious about why their strong-willed and invincible father had summoned them.
