Chereads / The emperor's summoner system / Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Zhao Hao glanced contemptuously at the ground, and at this moment, the system prompt sounded.

[Ding!]

[The host has adapted to the system and new identity, and the system has issued a mission.]

[Main task: First show of power - Before Li Tianba returns to the court, regain control of the court and stabilize your regime.]

 [Task reminder, if you want to regain control of the imperial court, the first step is to recapture the royal jade seal, and the second step is to deter the imperial court officials.]

[Reward- you can get the Emperor's Gift Pack after the main mission is completed.]

[ The Emperor's Gift Pack will contain; 1-3 God General Summoning Cards, and another random reward of experience, equipment, magic weapons, etc.]

[Hint, if the mission fails, the system shall abandon the host]

The corner of Zhao Hao's mouth slanted. The court was originally his, even if he didn't use the system to issue tasks, he would have to take it back. But now, he could get rewards for completing the tasks he would have had to do anyway.

'The mission failure leads to abandonment by the system meaning the system probably would see me as not being a worthy host if I couldn't even do this much'

From Zhao Hao's memory, after the Dragon Empire was almost destroyed by the three empires in the battle for the dragon veins, the only territory left for the kingdom to thrive was this island in the South Sea. The land and people are incomparable to those of the past.

Despite the territory being small, it was still not peaceful. The weaker the country, the easier it was as a target for bullying. In the past few years, the Divine Dragon Kingdom has often encountered infringements from nearby small countries along the sea. Li Tianba, who controlled the power of the army, came forward in person to negotiate with the guest countries...

'Regain control of the court and stabilize the regime before Li Tianba's return to the court!' Zhao Hao frowned. It was not known accurately when Li Tianba would return. If the negotiation fails, once the war starts, he would not return for three to five months. If the negotiation succeeded however, it may be ten days before he returns.

During the ten years when Zhao Hao was imprisoned, the soldiers who were loyal to the Zhao imperial family had all been killed, and now the hundreds of military officers in the Divine Dragon kingdom's military were all Li Tianba's loyalists. Zhao Hao felt pressure to regain control of the court in a short period of time.

'Fortunately, I have the system!'

According to the system's prompts, to take control of the court, the first step Zhao Hao needed to do was to recapture the Jade Seal. The seal represented the supreme emperor's power and without it, he would continue to be a puppet emperor, no one would listen to his orders. The Jade Seal of the Divine Dragon was originally in Zhao Hao's hands, but it was snatched away by Li Tianba ten years ago. Now, the Jade Seal of the Divine Dragon Kingdom was in Li Tianba's General Marshal's mansion.

Although Zhao Hao now had the god general Dong Zhuo, it was still not an easy task to enter the Li Tianba's mansion to retrieve the jade seal.

Zhao Hao glanced at Li Yao, who was kneeling on the ground and screaming. An idea slowly crept into his mind. 'Isn't this the son of Li Tianba? with this perfect hostage in hand, the chances of getting the jade seal back greatly increased.

"Dong Zhuo, imprison Li Yao and follow me to the Li Tianba's Mansion." Zhao Hao ordered. Before leaving, he checked the system for his information.

Host: Zhao Hao.

Level: Bone forging Tier 5.

Experience: 80/600.

God General: Dong Zhuo.

Harem Members: None.

Skills: Nine Suns magical skill.

Treasure: 1 card of the God General Summoning Card, the sword of the king.

People: 3.7 million.

Faith value: 19 points.

Enemies: Li Tianba.

[Current main task: To regain control of the court and stabilize the regime before Li Tianba returns to the court.]

...

Zhao Hao noticed that the faith value which had been 0 points just now, had suddenly become 19 points. He glanced around and noticed the maids who had their eyes glued to him, showing awe and admiration.

Zhao Hao came to a realization that after the performance just now, in the hearts of the dozens of court ladies present, he was no longer the trash puppet emperor...but a new worthy emperor.

"19 is still low but it's good for a start, in the near future, this value will definitely return to the glory of the divine dragon empire of the past, exceeding tens of billions." Zhao Hao was full of pride in his heart despite the small number.

...

A moment later, in the palace, Zhao Hao carried the sword of the king, put on the dragon sleeves of the imperial robe, and strode out murderously.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Dong Zhuo who was a giant of a man followed behind him, black flames burned on his body making him look like a demon from hell. Every step he took caused a shock on the ground.

Dong Zhuo carried a huge sword on his shoulder. The thick arm of the sword was covered with lightning. Li Yao was tied to the huge sword using threads of lightning. Under the scorching heat of the flames and lightning, his clothes had already burned to pieces exposing his severed manhood.

"Ah, it hurts, so much..."

Being imprisoned on the giant sword and electrocuted by lightning, Li Yao felt the pain of being cut by thousands of knives, he kept wailing incessantly.

As an assassin in his previous life, Zhao Hao was used to being lowkey and thus he felt a bit uncomfortable with this public display. He however forced himself to adapt quickly to the change of identity.

At this moment, a eunuch came up and saw Zhao Hao by chance. He was taken aback for a moment, and then yelled with his head in the air continuously while running: "The emperor escaped from the harem, the emperor escaped from the harem…..."

"..."

Zhao Hao was rendered speechless. The eunuch who was meant to be under him in the palace saw the emperor, and rather than acknowledging him, he started shouting. The tone used by the eunuch was as if someone had escaped from the imperial prison.

"Even a little eunuch dared not to kneel when seeing me!" Zhao Hao cursed.
