Chapter 269: Trap

Princess Arina didn't think as much as Anthony, and she walked all the way, without hiding her face, let alone hiding her tracks.

Her Royal Highness the eldest princess returned to the palace, and naturally no one would stop her, and the road was unimpeded.

Walking through the palaces and pavilions, the palace maids and guards in the palace saw it and hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Arina was just worried about her father's illness and didn't have time to take a closer look. Otherwise, she would have been able to find out that the expressions of these people were wrong.

The palace was naturally huge, and it took a lot of time for Arina to walk briskly and quickly, and finally came to the harem where the king rested.

When she arrived at the door, a middle-aged man turned out of it and looked at her with a surprised expression.

"Your Highness Princess, when did you come back?"

Arlina recognized the middle-aged man as King Beckenbauer's personal attendant, and was trusted by the king.

Arlina looked at him, and the tears she held back almost didn't hold back, and they fell.

"What is the matter with my father? How could you suddenly get such a serious illness, and you have been hiding it from me. ”

She said, lifting her foot over the threshold.

The middle-aged man respectfully turned sideways to let Arlina pass, and half-turned his body, already following behind her.

He silently raised his right hand, but his eyes were aimed at the back of the eldest princess's smooth and white neck.

A necklace hanging from the chest of Arina, who was walking in front of her, with a style very different from that of the glorious empire, suddenly glowed with a faint light without warning. Arina felt something, remembering what Anthony had said when he gave her the necklace, and looked around warily.

The middle-aged man reacted very quickly, withdrew his right hand, and pretended to be stunned and asked, "Your Royal Highness Princess, what's wrong?" ”

Arina looked around suspiciously, but found nothing unusual. The necklace had lost its brilliance and lay quietly on her chest, as if it had never moved before.

Although she felt that it was unlikely that her feelings and the reaction of the talisman necklace would go wrong at the same time, this was a heavily guarded palace, and because she was concerned about her father's condition, Arina put her suspicions aside for a moment and continued to walk into the room.

The room was very quiet, and the king was sick, so it was not suitable to squeeze a large number of people here.

Turning a screen, Arlina looked up, and felt like she had been hit with a hammer, and she felt like she was being struck with a hammer.

In front of the bed where my father usually sleeps, there are several people sitting around. Who they were, Arlina didn't have time to tell. Because she only saw his younger brother among them, Prince Andrei.

The prince described him as haggard, with disheveled hair and a scruffy beard on his face, which he had not taken care of for an unknown amount of time. There was endless sadness in his eyes.

And on his forehead, a white cloth belt is being tied!

"Sister." Prince Andrei finally sensed Arlina's arrival, but he called out in a low voice, and said no more.

Arlina turned a deaf ear, as if her soul had been withdrawn, and she slowly walked to the bed like a puppet, looking at her father who was lying quietly on the bed.

Her father's companionship and playfulness when she was a child, to the love she grew up with, and then to the helpless guilt of being forced to marry by the Riga Empire. Scene by scene changes back and forth in front of me like a marquee, and everything is vivid, as if it happened yesterday.

But in the blink of an eye, the king of the glorious empire, his beloved father, was ......

Arlina only felt that it was dark in front of her, and finally she couldn't hold it anymore and fainted.

Andrei took a step forward and helped his sister to fall. His teacher's figure flashed, and he also stepped forward. When I poked it out of my hand and took it back, there was already a delicate necklace in my palm.

The tall and thin old man looked closely, but he couldn't see anything.

"Teacher?" Andrei asked puzzled.

The old man came back to his senses and sighed: "It should be a magic prop, but in my eyes, I can't see the role and power of it." Anthony, hehe, this Anthony is really not simple. ”

Andrei respectfully said yes, disapproving.

You can't see what's so surprising about that. If Anthony is simple, the Holy See of Light needs to dispatch such a lineup to deal with him?

Seeing that the Pope of Light had come out in person, Prince Andrei was almost not frightened at that time.

Prince Andrei's personal strength is not very good, but he is not stupid. Just to deal with an Anthony, the power to be used is already so terrifying, so is it still necessary to guess whether the martial arts cultivation of this imperial general is high or low?

For a moment, he regretted that he was going to do something to Anthony.

He never knew that this young man with a gentle face, who had briefly assisted him and been his teacher, was actually a terrifying existence as powerful as a prehistoric monster!

It's a pity that there is no turning back when he opens the bow, His Royal Highness the Prince just made a start, and how things will develop next has long been out of his command and control.

The old man did not pay attention to Prince Andrei's face, but only frowned, doubting in his heart.

"Anthony came back so quickly than any of us expected. According to the news from those of us in the army, he hurried back with three hundred guards yesterday. According to the distance, it will take ten days and a half to walk. Who would have thought that it was only early this morning, and people had already appeared in the imperial capital. The key thing is that such a behavior is obviously vigilant, and it is not easy to lure him into a trap. ”

Prince Andre retracted his divergent thoughts and gently placed Arina in the chair beside him. The people around who had already been interested in it automatically dispersed, leaving only Prince Andre and his apprentice.

"Anthony's sudden early return disrupted our plans. I'm afraid that some adjustments and changes will be made to the original arrangement. Teacher, the Holy See of Light should also receive the news now, I don't know what they are preparing? How to move next, and what cooperation do I need to do, can you explain it? ”

Although Andrei is the prince of the Brilliant Empire and the heir to the future throne, he naturally puts his posture very low in the face of the behemoth of the Holy See of Light.

And the connection between him and the Bright Sect has always been his teacher's connection, and the situation over there can only be asked by his teacher.

The old man smiled slightly, and said disappreciatively:

"With the current manpower configuration of the Holy See of Light, no matter how much Anthony's skills defy the sky, how can he escape. That is, the Pope is cautious and serious, so he has taken great pains to lay a net of heaven and earth, waiting for him to collide with himself. ”

Through the performance of these days, Prince Andre has clearly seen the true face of his teacher's utilitarianism, greed and inflammatory attachment, and his heart has long lost the original worship and obedience, but he has become more and more unpleasant.

However, Prince Andrei still agrees with his words.

Anthony's strength is unfathomable, not to mention Prince Andre's half a bucket of water, even a golden fighter like his teacher can't see it thoroughly. But no matter how powerful he is, he will never have any chance of winning against the cutting-edge armed forces led by the Holy See of Upper Light.

The top masters of the fourth realm alone exceeded double digits. And there are many existences that have surpassed the golden initial level and reached the middle level, or even the high level, so that Prince Andre can only bow and worship.

In front of them, even the famous "Sword of the God of Light" and "Judgment" can only be reduced to dispensable passers-by.

Perhaps the only one who can resist such a force is God.

The old man continued, "Anyway, everything will go according to plan. Anyway, we are just running errands as an assistant, and if the Pope has other instructions, we can do so. At least this part of the task of Her Royal Highness the Princess, we have completed it successfully. ”

Prince Andrei looked at his sleeping sister, with a gloomy face, and nodded.

"Whether these arrangements can be used or not is still two words. First of all, Anthony can't pass Yang Haonian's level, which is still unknown. Hahaha! ”

The old man laughed uncontrollably, and his voice was heard far away from the room, but no one came in to check on him.

The body of Beckenbauer, the former king of a country, lay quietly on the bed, as if forgotten by the whole world, but no one paid attention to it.
