Chapter 790: Detoxification
The first to get the news was the mastermind behind this assassination, Duke Bismarck, the prime minister of the Jimny Empire.
It was an hour after the assassination that Duke Bismarck, who had already withdrawn from Langdon City ahead of schedule with several of his henchmen, in a grove outside the city.
"What did you say?" Duke Bismarck's rare gaffe, he grabbed the messenger by the collar, and asked eagerly: "Only Teresa I is dead?" Are you sure? ”
The messenger paused for a moment, then nodded resolutely, and said: "Our people can see clearly, Teresa I died on the spot, Pope Leo was hit by a sword in the shoulder, and Princess Bella is safe and sound. ”
Bismarck froze.
To the surprise of the surrounding henchmen, the Prime Minister's face did not show any joy, but showed deep disappointment.
After a long silence, Duke Bismarck suddenly spoke: "If the next assassination is launched now, what are the chances of success?" ”
"Back to the Prime Minister, the assassination operation has just passed, and at this moment, His Majesty Leo and Princess Bella are extremely well protected, and there is almost no hope of success."
"That's right......" Duke Bismarck fell into a long silence again, and when his henchmen were a little out of breath and began to remind Duke Bismarck to evacuate in time, the Duke finally returned to normal and let out a sigh.
"People are not as good as heaven, I didn't expect that only one succeeded, and the one who killed the one who should not die alone was the one...... That's it, let's get out of here first and then make a plan, since Leo has been hit by the sword, then the poison on the sword is still very likely to kill him! ”
Duke Bismarck glanced at Langdon City not far away with great reluctance, and went away with his subordinates.
At this moment, Langdon City was already in chaos, and after the blood-colored signal in the sky suddenly exploded, five thousand knights of the Scarlet Knights suddenly attacked Langdon City from outside the city, and quickly arrived at the Wind Chime Garden, where the banquet was held.
A moment later, an earth-shattering roar erupted from the garden: "The nobles of Langdon City have the audacity to assassinate Her Majesty the Empress, and everyone who sees it will be slaughtered!" ”
The Scarlet Knights roared at the same time, and they first rushed into the Garden of Wind Chimes, killing all those who had not had time to leave, and then the red-eyed butchers rode out of the Garden of Wind Chimes, spreading blood and carnage into the city of Langdon.
The first to suffer were the nobles of Langdon City, almost every noble mansion was slaughtered, but the Scarlet Knights did not stop because of this, and they brought killing and death to every corner of the city.
According to later statistics, in this killing, which lasted for a whole day and a night, at least more than 100,000 nobles and civilians of Landon City died at the hands of 5,000 crazy blood knights, which was also called the "Langdon Massacre" by later generations.
While the Scarlet Knights galloped through the city, thousands of members of the Church's condolence group were rapidly evacuating through the north gate of Langdon.
A portal suddenly appeared on the side of the road outside the north gate of Landon, and the Second Adjudicator stood in front of the portal with Leo in his arms.
At this moment, Leo was completely unconscious, and most of his body was covered in inky black, and the situation looked extremely terrifying.
Daisy on the side was like water: "Tell Lord Cheeto, I will withdraw as quickly as possible with the condolence group!" ”
Adjudicator No. 2 nodded, carrying Leo into the portal, and Bela, who was following them, nodded to Daisy and walked into the portal as well.
A flash of light flashed, and the portal slowly dissipated.
Daisy turned her head, and thousands of eyes were focused on her at the same time, even with a cardinal by her side, but at this moment everyone couldn't help but see this incomparably beautiful blonde as the real backbone.
"Retreat immediately and rush back to the Holy See as fast as possible!" Daisy's voice rang through everyone's ears.
Holy See, Headquarters of the Inquisition.
A portal suddenly appeared in Dandrien's room, and Dandrien, who was drinking tea, sighed in some surprise, and looked at the portal in front of him with a hint of puzzlement: "You're in trouble so soon?" ”
With a whoosh, Cheeto's figure suddenly appeared in the room, staring at the portal in front of him with a solemn face: "I'm afraid it's a big trouble." ”
The portal scroll was handed over to Daisy by Cheeto himself before departure, and Cheedo knew very well that Daisy, a woman who was both a subordinate and a lover, would never use the scroll until a moment of crisis.
The portal fluctuated, and then the second adjudicator appeared in front of the two of them with Leo in his arms, followed by another fluctuation, and Bela's figure appeared.
Cheeto looked at Leo who was held in the arms of the second adjudicator, and immediately had a hint of ominous premonition in his heart, and when he found that Leo's face was already covered in black gas, he instantly changed color: "What's the matter?" ”
The words of the second adjudicator were succinct: "Your Majesty has been poisoned!" ”
"Poisoning?!" Before Cheeto could react, a figure shot out of lightning and took Leo from among the second adjudicators, and it was Dandrien, who had been drinking tea all day.
Without the slightest hesitation, Dandrion's right hand slashed quickly at Leo's wrist, instantly cutting a wound.
A stream of black blood immediately flowed from Leo's wound, and the black blood emitted an incomparably fishy smell that made everyone's hearts in the room tighten.
"How?" Bella couldn't wait to ask.
"It's troublesome." Dandrion frowned, and suddenly opened his mouth and shouted: "Angelina, stop playing, come here!" ”
There was another ripple in the room, and the figure of the little girl Angelina slowly emerged, holding a pair of scissors in her right hand and a puppy in her left hand.
As soon as Angelina appeared, she immediately complained: "Oh, Lord Dandrien, you have to know that I am still a little girl, and I always have a little childlike innocence, so you can't let me have a good time-scare?" How did Brother Leo become like this? ”
Angelina looked at Leo in surprise, not even noticing that the puppy in her hand broke free and escaped from the room.
"He's poisoned." Dandrion said in a deep voice: "It looks like a strange poison, do you have a way?" ”
Angelina's eyes flashed, and her cute little face instantly showed a serious and solemn expression, and with a wave of her hand, she got a drop of black blood dripping from the wound on Leo's wrist in front of her, and after carefully observing it for a while, she shook her head.
"I know this poison as one of the most famous poisons of the dark sect that ruled this land three hundred years ago, before the fall of the Genteca Empire, but—I can't cure it."
"What?" Everyone's faces changed at the same time, if even Dandrion and Angelina, the two strongest, were helpless, then Leo would not be dead.
Angelina looked at everyone's heavy expressions, and suddenly grinned: "Oh, look at you like this, although I said that I can't solve it, it doesn't mean that Leo's poison can't be solved." ”
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Who, who can cure this poison?" ”
Angelina suddenly pulled into Leo's arms, grabbed a lively little white dragon in her hand, and said to everyone with a smile: "Its blood is the best antidote." ”
