"Bet on everything? Witness the results ......"

Robin stared at the figure in the doorway.

The gentle duke, who seemed a little submissive before, seemed to have suddenly become taller.

His mind remembered the resolute expression on the face of Shalom when he had cut off Ogar's head.

It's a kind of non-care that puts life on the line.

In Salom's body, it was as if a flame was burning.

But......

What does it mean to witness the results?

What are the results?

Robin's heart pounded.

A terrible thought crossed his mind.

Could it be said?

"Shalom!"

Robin stepped forward and shouted.

The Grand Duke of Yuiwa turned around.

At this moment, Robin completely saw the expression in the other party's eyes.

Cold and lonely.

Robin took a deep breath and tried to calm the waves in his chest.

The crowd turned back to look at the Chosen One.

The words that came out of his mouth slowly shocked everyone—

"The army of the Xiyan Leader, how far is it from Haoyue City?"

"What?!"

Duke Gwen stood up with his cane in his hands.

Her fingers trembled slightly.

Aiden's eyes widened, and he sat back in his chair, unable to utter a word.

The Lone Moon Knight Rorel looked at Salom in disbelief, and for a moment the expression on his face changed and changed.

Salom looked back and smiled.

"How do you know, Robin the Chosen One?"

……

The sun has completely sunk below the horizon.

At this time, outside Haoyue City, a large shadow appeared.

"What's that? ……”

On the rampart, a sentry looked into the distance with some confusion.

In fact, you don't need to look closely to see that it can't be a dark cloud in the sky or dust blown up by the wind.

In the midst of the barren grass, the black-pressed army looked excessively magnificent, like a tide.

But...... How could it be outside Haoyue City?

You must know that when any country's army enters the kingdom, it must pass through the Sunset Rock Territory, which is a natural barrier in front of Haoyue City.

Unless—

"Enemy attack!"

One of the sentries cried out in horror.

……

A looming trumpet sounded in the city of Bright Moon.

Residents stopped to listen.

The horn whimpered and sounded continuously, like a ghost crying.

There are a total of nine long notes.

The faces of all the inhabitants changed dramatically.

It was the highest level of warning in the kingdom, and there were only a few times in the history of the kingdom.

But each time it undoubtedly brought great disaster to the royal city.

And the most recent one-

It was the night of the Blood Moon sixteen years ago, ending with the death of the former King Seviala.

There was a pause of about ten seconds.

The trumpet sounded again.

This time, everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream and began to act accordingly.

People fled in all directions, shouting and shouting, and the royal city was thrown into chaos.

……

In the temple's conference room, the air froze.

Everyone's faces were unusually solemn.

"That's because ......" Robin said slowly, looking at Salom with some sadness, "I have the impression that Duke Sallom is a gentle man. ”

Salom's body shuddered slightly, and there was a vague light in her eyes.

"I've seen the old guards and some of the old maids in the Yuyan Collar, and you spoke to me of them in an almost pleading tone.

Even in front of Himma, you don't show a mother's aggressive side.

So I'm a little shocked by your outburst just now.

But, after that, when you say that you bet everything, I kind of get it. “

"What?" Tears glistened in Shalom's eyes, her chest heaved and she looked at Robin tightly.

"A person who is used to being bullied will not become accustomed to it because he has been oppressed and bullied for a long time."

Robin took a deep breath, and Ji Ye's words echoed in his mind-

If the sky is dark, then survive in the dark; If it is dangerous to make a sound, then keep silent; If you feel powerless to shine, then curl up in the corner. But don't get used to the darkness and justify it; Don't be complacent about your own stubbornness; Don't mock those who are braver and more passionate than yourself. We can be humble as dust, and we cannot be twisted like maggots.

"Yes, no one is used to being oppressed and bullied, just like no one is used to living in the dark forever." Robin smiled bitterly, "Unless you've never owned something called Freedom." It's like you were born blind. ”

As he said this, several Grand Dukes bowed their heads silently, their eyes falling to the ground, and they fell into a deep thought.

The Knight of the Lonely Moon at the door slowly withdrew her scimitar, and Carol lifted her spear to the ground.

Here, in this empty room, in this unusually silent night, there was only Robin's voice.

"Like a backlog of volcanoes, there will always be an eruption one day. I don't know what forced you to be like this, but I know that when you cut off Olja's head, the volcano had already erupted.

And this is not an omen, this is only the first casualty of the eruption. “

Robin exhaled, and Salom's mood at the time was probably similar to that-

Anyway, the old lady has already been released, and it is natural to find a cushion before she dies.

"I thought it was just a spur of the moment, but when you say it's going to be everything, I realize it's probably not that simple.

What if what the Grand Duke of Yuyan said about gambling everything is really betting on everything?

If what happened today wasn't accidental, and Olgar's head was cut off not on the spur of the moment, but in your careful planning?

Then that makes sense. “

Robin raised his gaze and looked straight at Salom, "The army of the Sunset Rock Leader is coming to the city, and it is the Grand Duke closest to Bright Moon City, this is the most terrible enemy attack, from the betrayal within the kingdom.

It's not that Oga alone wants to control the future of the kingdom, it's clear that Grand Duke Salom of the Yuyan Domain, you have endured and planned for many years for today. ”

It was then that a terrifying flash of lightning flashed through Robin's brain.

"So the vanguard officer of the Chinese King's Guard in Haoyue City, your child Knight Jima is probably also an important part of it, right?"

On the surface, the mother and daughter were not compatible, and let the daughter serve as the king's personal guard to win the king's trust, and further paralyze the people, just to meet the outside world tonight.

A chill rushed from the soles of Robin's feet to his head, and he felt cold all over his body.

"Tonight is about to usher in the most difficult night in the history of Haoyue City, and the army of the Yuiwa Leader and the betrayal of the king's personal guard...... Bet on everything, either become king or die, right, Grand Duke Salom? ”

This sentence was like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's hearts hard, and everyone was shocked.

It was then that the sound of a trumpet came from outside.

Duke Aiden's whole body trembled, and he raised his head and listened intently.

"One, two...... Nine long tones. ”

Her complexion changed slightly, and she couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"The highest warning in the kingdom."

"Whenever Haoyue City suffers a terrible calamity, it will sound nine long sounds." Mattida took her words, "The last time was sixteen years ago, when the king died, in an assassination. ”

"So......" Duke Gwen trembled his hand and looked at Duke Salom at the door, holding his cane.

In the eyes of the old duke, there was not much surprise, only irrepressible sadness.

"Is what the Chosen One said true, Salom, why did you do that?"

"Because ......," Salom smiled bitterly, "I have no choice. ”
