Chapter Thirty-Seven: Another Princess?
"Who are the people who have been in charge of guarding the gates of the border city recently?"
After thinking about it, Lu Ming didn't think that any force in the human race dared and could do this, and it could only be someone from the Demon King Alliance.
Since he suspected that it was a demon clan, although he felt that there was little hope, Lu Ming still decided to ask them about the recent situation at the border city gate adjacent to them.
After all, the emperor ** had an accident in the border city, this is the territory of human beings, and it is not easy for the demons to come in.
"It's from the Imperial Knights."
Faced with Lu Ming's questioning, the half-corpse warrior immediately replied:
"There have been three hundred knights at the city gate, and even during the enthronement ceremony yesterday, there were many knights left there."
"Then it's not a matter of the city gates."
Lu Ming unsurprisingly ruled out the speculation that there was a problem with the city gate.
After all, with the methods of those people in the Holy Sword Sect, there were many ways to send people in without concealing the knights at the city gate, and Lu Ming didn't pay attention to it here at all.
"What I'm more curious about is how they accurately found the location of the emperor's **, and they were able to skillfully avoid the emperor's inspection and kill so many people."
I have to say that Lu Ming is the most skeptical about this.
Although the military camp where the emperor is located is the largest, at the same time, there are people from the knights next to it, and the various forces of various countries are next to them.
Even the military camp of Lu Ming's half-corpse legion was very close to them.
However, they were able to find a route that did not alarm other strong people, and they were able to perfectly avoid the night patrol of the emperor, killing so many people in silence.
"Perhaps, someone betrayed your lordship."
The words of the half-corpse warrior are more direct, but the possibility of this sentence is still very high.
Lu Ming also thought about it, if he wanted to kill so many people in their complicated border city, there must be people from the empire who are helping them.
And the person who helped them, I'm afraid of a high position, knows the current situation in the border city very well.
"My lord, do you want to imprison all the former kings of the Six Kingdoms now?"
Seeing that Lu Ming did not refute his words, this half-corpse warrior immediately pointed the finger at the kings of the six countries.
Obviously, they all thought that this matter was done by a king who did not obey the discipline of their Demon King.
According to their half-corpse idea, that is, they directly gathered these former kings together and cut them all.
Of course, apart from Dill, Dill is truly his own person, a member of their Demon King Army.
"No need."
Lu Ming spoke out to stop the half-corpse warrior's request and stood up from the table:
"Take me there."
"Yes! My lord! ”
The half-corpse warrior immediately bowed his head and replied forcefully.
After Lu Ming left, he was accompanied by several other half-corpse warriors.
However, Li Xiang actually followed him out, and Lu Ming, who found this, was very surprised.
"Why did you come along?"
Lu Mingqi said, thinking that this princess was not interested in things other than sleeping, but he didn't expect to follow him to investigate what happened in the emperor's ** last night.
Regarding Lu Ming's question, I saw Li Xiang answer him listlessly:
"I haven't gotten a contract with you, and I can't go home yet."
Hearing this, Lu Ming smiled and asked her:
"Then you can stay in the dormitory and wait for me to come back, and I won't run away."
Lu Ming said that he raised his hands to agree to the marriage contract, but now that he has other things in his body, he can't talk to her about the marriage contract for the time being.
Just when Lu Ming thought that the girl would scream, 'yes', and then reacted and continued to go back to sleep, he didn't expect Rika's performance to be quite calm.
"It's okay, you can sleep anywhere anyway."
She replied unconcernedly.
This time it was Lu Ming's turn to pat his head and say secretly, yes, this guy can fall asleep even if he is standing, and when he arrives at the barracks, he can sleep anytime and anywhere.
Lu Ming couldn't help but shake his head, saying that he really couldn't see through her.
Entering the place where the emperor ** had an accident, Lu Ming found that this place had been put under martial law by the Imperial Knights, and there was even a figure of his half-corpse army nearby.
In short, with the Half-Corpse Legion here, there is no need to worry about continued accidents here.
As soon as Lu Ming came, the emperor's ** high-level immediately came to see him, but Lu Ming waved him back, saying that he would just take a look at it himself.
Led by the half-corpse warriors beside him, he first took a look at the area that had been attacked, and the barracks in this area had barely moved, but when he opened the military tent, he could find piles of corpses inside.
It is said that it was only in the morning that the patrol did not come, and then it was discovered that the attack had been carried out.
Lu Ming took a look at the wounds of the deceased, all of them were killed with one blow, and the corpses in a camp tent all died from the same attack.
In other words, the attacker can kill a person in a military tent in one blow without making a sound, and at the same time ensure that the military tent is intact, and this kind of magic manipulation ability is estimated to be above 200 levels.
"It seems that someone from the Demon King's coalition is here."
Lu Ming sighed secretly, this level is only available to the demon clan.
I thought that I would go to them after the enthronement ceremony, but I didn't expect them to come first.
"But ......"
Lu Ming frowned, because he found that the dead and injured people were all in the same area, almost all of them were people from the Fergus Kingdom, and they were too dense.
You must know that the people of the several major kingdoms in the emperor are stationed very closely, and if you really choose a group of people to attack, the armies of multiple kingdoms will definitely suffer.
But now it seems that the number of casualties in other kingdoms is almost zero, and there are more than a dozen, which can be said to be too far worse than the thousands of casualties in Fergus.
It's weird.
"Where's Tilna? Where is she? ”
Lu Ming said to his side, wanting to ask the knights if there was any news there.
"Here I am, Lord Brave!"
Tilna immediately walked out of the crowd behind her, and such a big thing happened, she, the newly promoted head of the Imperial Knights, naturally came over.
Lu Ming glanced at Tilna and found that her spirit was not very good, it seemed that she had just become the head of the Knights and had been busy all night.
"Tilna, who are the people who have come in and out of the gate adjacent to the demon clan recently?"
Lu Ming didn't talk nonsense, and asked her dryly, what he wanted to know was that if someone was really helping the people of the Demon Clan to understand the layout of the border city, then whether he contacted the Demon Clan through that city gate.
To this, Tirna's answer was also very neat:
"Report to my lord, the gate adjacent to the demon clan has been forbidden to ordinary people to enter and exit, and there are not many nobles who can obtain permission to enter and exit."
"At present, the only one who has been out of the city recently is Her Royal Highness the princess of the former Fergus Kingdom."
"Princess? Another princess? ”
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, glanced at Princess Lixiang who was asleep with her eyes closed behind him, and couldn't help muttering. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
