Chapter 41: Bloody Upheaval
Late at night on this day.
The southern part of the Jurran continent.
The city of Wanjin, the capital of the trading nation of Urdan, is playing out a huge drama called death and domination. Bright red, muddy flames rolled up all over the city, the scorching stench was raised, the streets of the past were clogged with corpses and blood, the ports full of merchant ships were overrun by mercenaries and pirates, the slaughtered inhabitants were everywhere the eye could see, children were knocked off by galloping horses, and women were killed by random humiliation. Fire and smoke spread rapidly along the rows of houses, mixed with cries, curses, screams, and begs for mercy, turning the city into hell.
Protected by four captains of the guard in the Crystal armor, the current king, Kuros Basel, walked through the already burning palace with corpses on the ground. He kept calling out the name of the leader of the guards, Kebado Watt, but there was no answer, only the intruder's blade responded. The intruders were slain one by one by the captains of the guard, but fortunately, the four were selected from thousands of warriors through a national jousting tournament, which made Kuros feel a little relieved.
However, he couldn't figure out where these intruders who poured into the palace like a tidal wave came from. The day a few hours ago was as calm as ever, and it was impossible for a force of this size to march without any movement. What made him even more incomprehensible was that the head of the guards, who had been entrusted with the task of controlling 10,000 troops in the entire capital, failed to defend the palace and let the invaders drive in.
"What the hell is this bastard doing!" Kuros let out a gnashing of teeth.
"Your Majesty, there are too many enemies, let's protect you from the secret passage." One of the captains of the guard slashed several intruders to the ground with a swing of his sword, and spoke to the king behind him.
"No! I haven't found my sons and daughters yet, so I can't just go like that. "The king, who had been abruptly awakened from his slumber, was still wearing a wide nightgown, and his concubine was also scattered by the invaders on the way, and his heart was now full of anger.
Another captain of the guard threw his spear with great force, a powerful blow like lightning through the clouds, turning all the dozen or so intruders in the aisle into corpses. However, such a terrifying power could not stop the intruders' attack, and without showing the slightest fear of death, another group of people rushed towards them screaming.
"They're all crazy." The captain of the guard who threw his spear shouted in shock and anger, indeed knowing that he was going to die, he still rushed with all his might, it was no longer bravery, and there was no other word to describe their actions than the word madman.
"Your Majesty, if you don't leave, I'm afraid it's going to be too late!" The captain of the guard urged again, and by now he could already see figures trying to get behind them from the windows on either side.
"This ......," Kuros clenched his fists, worried about his wife and children, but more afraid of death, "Alright, let's go!" ”
Following the captain of the guard to run with all his might, he was born in the royal family, he always lived a life of fine clothes and jade food, drunk and gold, so his physical quality was not even comparable to ordinary people, and he began to gasp sharply after running a few steps, but even so, under the threat of death, he still ran forward vigorously, which may be the longest and fastest in his life.
Constantly resisting the white blades and arrows from all sides, the four captains of the guards surrounded Kuros in the middle, using their bodies as shields, desperately waving the swords in their hands, under their excellent protection, the intruders were killed one by one, and the corpses were stacked layer after layer, although one captain of the guards was damaged on the way, but Kuros still successfully arrived at the entrance of the secret passage located in the secret place of the garden.
The moment he opened the door to the secret passage, Kuros' eyes showed surprise, because he saw a familiar figure in the secret passage, and this figure should not have been there in the first place.
"Your Majesty, you look really embarrassed." The strong man with two halberds in his hand said with a sneer.
"Kebardo, you bastard, why are you here? What's going on with these intruders? Get out there and escort the princes and princesses! Seeing Kebado's face, Kuros turned from surprise to anger, and scolded sharply.
"Don't worry, I'll take you to meet them." Despite the king's wrath, Kebardo waved his hand disapprovingly, a sly smile on his face, and then a group of soldiers stepped out of the depths of the secret passage.
The lighting prop called "Daylight" illuminates the entire secret passage as bright as day, but the soldiers who come slowly are not the royal army wearing the uniforms of the Urdan Trade Kingdom, and their costumes do not have any national symbols on them, which means that they are mercenaries like the invaders outside.
"What do you mean, Lord Kebardo?" One of the captains of the guard hurriedly blocked his body in front of the king, who was confused by too much surprise, and although it was a question, judging from the point of his sword at Kebado, he already had an answer in his heart.
Kebado-Watt, the leader of the guards, has not accidentally gone to the wrong side, but has betrayed.
"Protect Your Majesty!" The three captains of the guards shouted and rushed towards Kebado with their swords raised at the same time.
Although Kebado is the leader of the guards and can be said to be the strongest warrior in the country, it is not impossible for the three captains of the guards to win at the same time.
Kuros thought so, but what happened after that made him completely despair, and Kebado proved the gap between the absolute strong and the average strong with practical actions.
I saw Kebado wielding the halberd in his hand, which was like a blow of lightning and flint, and he killed all three captains of the guard in just one blow. The mutilated corpse and internal organs were scattered all over the ground, causing Kuros's stomach to churn and vomit violently.
"Your Majesty is really weak, why don't you go and help him." Kebado laughed insolently, and several mercenaries pinned Kuros to the ground, his face pressed into his own vomit, and his nose was filled with a sour smell.
Looking out of the window of the royal hall, the field of vision was filled with the red heat of the burning flames.
Dressed in a black cloak trimmed with gold, a man sits on a throne in the trading kingdom of Urdan.
"Salan, in the accounts of historians in the future, it will be said that the rise of mankind began tonight." The man arrogantly looked down at the trembling ladies of the royal family who were kneeling in front of the throne, and said to the bepleasing man standing beside him in exaggerated costumes.
"Yes, Your Highness, you are destined to dominate the whole world." The bewitching man bowed down respectfully, showing a pleasant smile, and compared to his delicate face, those royal ladies who were known for their beauty were instantly overshadowed.
At this moment, the only two people who laughed happily in this palace dominated by fear were none other than the masterminds of this bloody upheaval, the crown prince of the Holy Light Empire, Jukka Ander Candris, and his strategist Saran Angelet.
"Rolda, don't they have any news yet?"
"Ah, I haven't come back after so long, although I don't know what happened, but I'm afraid several of them have died."
"Forget about the others, even Rolda, hum, I still value him so much in vain."
"It's just a few dispensable chess pieces, and Your Highness doesn't have to worry too much about it."
"I don't care if they live or die, what I care about is Warcraft." Yuka held his cheek with his hand, looking dissatisfied.
At this moment, the door of the royal hall suddenly opened interrupted the conversation between the two, and Kebado pushed the unkempt and sour King Kuros in.
"Your Highness, Kuros has been caught." Kicking the former monarch to the ground, Kebado said respectfully to Yuka.
"Lord Kebardo, how can you be so rude to King Kuros, and don't let him go." Yuka stood up, his words sounding like admonition, but his tone was full of smiles.
"Yes, Your Highness," the "admonished" Kebado did not show any dissatisfaction, but cut the rope that bound Kuros's hands with a smile on his face, and "accidentally" cut a cut on his arm.
"Your Highness Yuka, as long as you can let me and my family go, I can do whatever I want, and I am willing to give you the whole country." Kuros begged for mercy in agony.
"King Koulos, when the prince asked you to submit to me, didn't you say that I should let the horse come over, and you will learn to bow your head." Yukka patted Kuros' fat cheek, then wiped the stain on his hand back onto his dressing gown.
"Your Highness Yuka, it was my fault before, it was my fault, please spare me regardless of the villain!" Kuros fell to his knees, crying and pleading.
"Hahahaha, look at this is the king of the Urdan trading kingdom," Yuka said with his arms outstretched as if he were showing the spoils of war, allowing the soldiers around him to see the king groveling.
There was laughter all around.
Satisfied with the reaction of the soldiers around him, Yuka squatted down, looked at Kulos with a sincere look and said, "You didn't have to suffer like this if you said this earlier, this prince is also a man of strength, since you have surrendered, then I will not embarrass you, go out through the door over there, I have prepared a carriage and a lot of money for you, I think it will be enough for you to squander for the rest of your life." ”
Lanka pointed to the door next to the throne that led to the dormitory.
"Really, really?" Kuros couldn't believe his ears.
"Well, well, King Kuros, before His Highness changes his mind, I advise you to run away quickly." Salaner said in a lazy tone.
"Thank you, thank you, Your Highness," Kulos looked at his ladies as if he wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he still didn't say anything, just ran to the door, at this time there was nothing more important than survival.
Although he lost the royal capital, there are still many generals in the country who are loyal to him, and as long as he survives, he will have a chance to take revenge. Kuros pushed the door open in thought, but the sight of him made him collapse to the ground. Behind the door was a long table with the heads of his five sons lined up.
"Hahahaha, it's funny," Yuka clapped his hands and laughed when he saw Kuros's reaction, "Saran, you have a really good idea." ”
"Well, well, Your Highness, you have won the prize, and the most painful time for human beings is when they give hope and then turn hope into despair." Saran covered her mouth and snickered.
"Lord Kebardo, please sit down on the throne of our King Kuros, the show hasn't started yet." Jukka waved his hand, and Kebado stepped forward and grabbed Kuros and threw him onto his throne.
"Soldiers, you have also worked hard tonight, let these royal ladies comfort you," Yuka said with a wicked smile to the soldiers below, "please ravage them to your heart's content, and you must torture them to death!" ”
"Oh!" A loud cheer like a landslide echoed Yuka's words.
"Wait, wait, Your Highness," Kebardo knelt down and pointed to one of the panicked royal daughters, "can you reward that royal lady to your subordinates." ”
Yuka looked at the woman Kebado was referring to, she was indeed the most beautiful of all the female dependents, "I can't imagine that Lord Kebado also knows how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and I will rely on your bravery more in the future, this little matter is something that the prince will satisfy you, so I will leave it to you to deal with." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness," Kebado excitedly stood up and walked towards the princess.
Originally invaded by countless invaders and died in agony, now it was enough to serve only one person, and the chosen princess felt happy in her heart, and obediently climbed forward a few steps and stretched out her hand towards Kebado.
I thought I would be helped up by Kebado, but what was ushered in was a heavy punch. The delicate princess could not bear such a force, and fell to the ground, her mouth full of blood, but before she could beg for mercy, Kebado tore off her clothes.
"Hahahaha, the princess of the high, let me be refreshed." Kebado grabbed the princess's slender fingers and broke them off one by one. The princess endured the beastly humiliation and heavy fists of Kebardo, the bones of her whole body snapped, and her groans of pain echoed through the familiar royal hall.
Such a move aroused the **** of the surrounding soldiers, and they rushed towards the royal women, and the desperate screams of the women began to echo in the entire hall, but they were soon swallowed up by the crazy laughter of the soldiers.
After venting his desires, Kebado stood up, blood stained his body, and the beautiful princess beneath him had turned into a corpse with unrecognizable flesh and blood.
"Lord Kebardo is really in good spirits, Prince Ben admires you," Jukka clapped as if he had watched a wonderful performance.
"Thank you for your kindness, your subordinates will definitely go to the soup for you!" Kebado's face flushed and he expressed his loyalty to Yucca.
"After the bloody washing of the royal city, I'm afraid there will be rebels everywhere."
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, that kind of rabble, your subordinates will be able to annihilate them all."
"Then Prince Ben is looking forward to your performance in the future, Urdan will be yours from today onwards, don't forget to deal with him later." Yukka pointed to the former king Kuros, who was sitting on his throne and looked sluggish from the blow he had received.
"My subordinates understand!" Kebado stretched his fists and walked towards the throne.
"Saran, let's go too, there are still many things waiting for Prince Ben to deal with." Yukka shook off his cloak and walked towards the gate, and the soldiers on both sides hurriedly moved out of the way.
"Yes, Your Highness, you are really diligent." Saran looked around and followed with a smile.
On that night, Urdan, the most prosperous country in the south of Jurrant and a large trading country, was subjected to a bloody upheaval, slaughtering both civilians and royalty, and not a single person in the entire royal city was spared. The country was in turmoil and civil war, and the former head of the Guard, Kebado, ascended to the throne and became the terrifying dictator of what would later be called the "Tyrant of Torture".
