Holy See, Inner Sanctum.

Su Xiao sat at the table with the old duke, and after surmising that the leader of the Society of the Gods was Li Lin, the old duke remained silent.

Li Lin's goal was already obvious, to get rid of the remaining four dukes and the Holy King, so as to take control of the Serra Empire.

This almost brutal way of seizing power will have many drawbacks, but Li Lin can't wait, the front-line battlefield is tight, and the sea area between the two continents is completely occupied by the Northern Alliance.

Just half a month ago, the main battlefield had advanced to the border of the Serra Empire, and the front-line troops of the Northern Alliance had been stationed on the border of Serra, ready to attack at any time.

The total strength of the Serra Empire was more than 2.3 million, most of which were land arms, and the troops at sea were almost completely wiped out.

The Northern Alliance, although the total strength is only about 1.2 million, these soldiers who grew up in extremely cold regions are extremely good at fighting, where the climate is too harsh and there is no strong physique, and survival is a problem.

Because of this, the inhabitants of the Arctic Regions are born warriors, men, women and children, and they have to fight polar creatures from an early age and eat their flesh to survive.

There is a tradition in the Northern Alliance, after the birth of a newborn, to survive alone in a cold wooden house for a day, that is, to freeze for a day, only in this way, can you drink breast milk, not the inhabitants of the extreme cold are cruel or crazy, congenitally weak babies, in the extreme cold can not live for a month, only strong to live, limited resources, reproduction is the hope.

In the warmest season of the extremely cold land, the temperature is about minus 26 °, and the coldest time reaches 79 °, everything is frozen, the flames cannot heat it, and the snow on the ground reaches more than 1.3 meters.

On the other hand, the Sierra Empire also has winter here, with snow falling all over the sky, but the lowest temperature is about 30 °, and more importantly, as long as it survives two months of cold winter, the spring will bloom, the land will recover, and all kinds of crops will be cultivated.

The polar people are fighting for survival, and the saints are not, once the Serra Empire is destroyed, the saints who need to replenish their vitality with human blood are the rats crossing the street.

Li Lin wanted to assassinate the old duke because the old duke was the most dangerous, after all, this old guy was the first generation of saints, that is, the first group of god eaters who were cursed by the god of death, Turney.

The assassination of the Duke of the Angry Lion was because of the inaction of the Duke of the Angry Lion, he had most of the army in the empire, but the Northern Alliance had reached the border, and the Duke of the Angry Lion not only did not come to the front line in person to revive the morale of the soldiers, but instead ate and drank in the winery outside the capital Arans.

The angry lion's death was not unjust at all, Li Lin killed him, it was a very wise decision, an incompetent person in power, it was too bad in wartime.

As for killing the Duke of Bailong, it was because Li Lin couldn't figure out the Duke of Squatting in the house, and the other party seemed to be obsessed with women, but after so many years, the duke's position was still very stable, and there was no intention of continuing to pass it on.

Li Lin was very angry, Duke Bailong's inaction was nothing, and he didn't even look for the next duke candidate, were he ready to enjoy it all the time? Comfortable all the time?

It turns out that comfort is reserved for the dead, Duke Bailong is cold, and now he is lying in the coffin, judging from his appearance, he is quite peaceful, but half of his head has been cut off, and the stitching marks are slightly rough.

"The Iron Feather King won't last long."

Su Xiao broke the silence.

"I know."

The old duke sighed, he knew that his good days were over.

"At the very least, it can last for a few months......"

"It's a few days."

"What?!"

The old duke's hand slammed, and the two small skulls in his hands slipped and fell on the table with a snap, one of the skulls cracked.

"Few... Sky? ”

The old duke is not calm for the first time, and the current situation is not as simple as the end of a good life.

Su Xiao got up and walked outside the inner hall, he glanced at the pure gold lamps on both sides of the short corridor, the towering giant trees with their roots completely rotting could not be remedied by the efforts of just one or two people.

Walking out of the main gate of the Holy Court, Su Xiao took off the duke on his chest, this thing is no longer so important.

Walking on the street, Su Xiao thought in his heart about how the follow-up plan should be changed, he really didn't expect that Serra was about to be unable to hold on, once the Northern Alliance came over, Serra would cease to exist, and a new kingdom or empire would be established on the corpse of the Sierra Empire and gradually prosper.

However, this has little to do with Su Xiao, he only needs to complete two things now, first, get rid of Li Lin, and second, destroy the Holy King Alexand.

Regarding getting rid of Li Lin, Su Xiao is ready to do it today, and he has already arranged the specific details.

And on the side of the Holy Descent King Alexandria, Su Xiao once thought that this Holy Descent King was deeply hidden, but now it seems that that guy is just a simple inaction, and the other party slept soundly during the Imperial Conference before, not a disguise.

Alexandre was chosen as king because of his family's heritage, and with the inaction of the four dukes, Li Lin could not remove the king of the Holy Descent.

There are three benefits to killing the Saint King, 1. Obtaining the Soul Breaker Shadow Stone, 2. Completing the fourth ring of the side quest, and 3. Eliminating whether he has a space-time hub device in his hand.

Su Xiao began to wander around the streets, about to find a place to wait, but a figure came into his eyes at this time.

This is an old man, dressed in loose gray clothes, with dry white hair, because he is too old, his face is covered with old age spots, and under the wide open clothes on his chest, there is a skinny body, and the ribs are clearly visible.

It was the Iron Feather King, who was sitting in a tavern on the side of the street, holding a clay cup with a thin bottom and full of spirits.

This clay cup with a sharp bottom is researched by the soldiers on the battlefield, and the wine in the cup must be drunk in one gulp, without leaving a drop, otherwise it will flow out after putting it down, just like on the battlefield, indomitable, and must not relax for a moment.

Su Xiao stopped and walked into this tavern with a 'drowning spring style', drowning spring is the hometown of the Iron Feather King, a small country near Serra.

Su Xiao sat opposite the Iron Feather King, and he could judge without beating him that he would definitely win, the Iron Feather King was too old, like a broken candle in the wind.

The Iron Feather King didn't say anything, just drank the liquor in his cup in one gulp.

"Ha~ Sure enough, the wine still has to be drunk like this."

The Iron Feather King exhaled a faint smell of wine, put the wine glass upside down on the table, and smiled, not heroic, but happy.

He picked up a piece of jerky and put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, as if this was a delicacy in the world, and he was used to eating it on the battlefield.

The Iron Feather King doesn't have to die, and the Saints will try their best to keep him alive, and even sacrifice many Saints to turn the Iron Feather King into an immortal Saint.

The Iron Feather King refused, he was protecting Serra, but he didn't need the power of the Demon Outer Dao, or rather, this was the reason why he was strong, he was the purest and most powerful, the spear master who killed on the battlefield.

Death is just that, as the iron feather king of mankind, he is willing to accept dying in a human way, because this is his life, without any regrets, since he is called a king, then die in the empire he guards, and guard until ...... The last moment of life.
