Chapter 252: Usurpation
In the Norton Royal Concert Hall, Princess Elenor used to sit opposite Duke Anderson, and her voice was full of strong will: "She has been sitting in that position for too long, but she will only stick to the rules and cannot keep up with the current times, a few decades ago most nobles wanted her to sit in the position of the Empress, but now it is different, the times are developing, and Norton is no longer the Norton of decades ago." Uncle Anderson, remember that slum street you took me to a little later? That was my first exposure to the scenery outside the palace, and that street was no longer there, but became a bustling commercial street where people lived a better life. ”
Duke Anderson tried to persuade his niece: "Even then you don't need to act so drastically. ”
Princess Elennor put her hands together and pointed: "Uncle Anderson, standing still in a raging river is itself a countercurrent, and the same is true of the times, don't you feel familiar when you hear the name Harvey Adrian?" ”
Duke Anderson nodded: "I know, he is a descendant of that man." ”
"The Empress began to look for ways to continue her life thirty years ago, from praying to demons to potions, and in general it was successful, which is why Iris will wipe out that person, but the current president of the Magic Association is different, she is a high-ranking spellcaster, and she has power above power, so all we can do now is to attack the Empress."
“······”
"Uncle Anderson, I hope you can understand my position, this is not a decision that I can make alone, it is a decision made by the people, the merchants, the nobles, and the kingdom."
"Then why involve Harvey Adrian and Count Henrietta?"
Princess Eleanor's beautiful face showed a look of regret: "Harvey Adrian is an excellent spellcaster, sooner or later he will find the true image of his grandfather's death, I just want to eradicate this hidden threat as soon as possible, no matter how good the literature he writes, it is insignificant compared to the safety of the kingdom." As for Count Henrietta, he is on the side of Harvey Adrian, and Vaughan Horn belongs to the nobles who support us, it's as simple as that. And then there's you, Uncle Anderson, that the military power of the kingdom cannot be concentrated in the hands of just one man. ”
Duke Anderson closed his eyes and shook his head gently for a long time: "Elenor, your words really moved me, but I also can't watch the kingdom passively fall into chaos, even if it is conformist, now the people live a rich life, if this is the choice of the development of the kingdom and the times, then a character like me must be vulnerable in the face of the power of the times, and people at least need the strength to lift their legs before climbing the ladder, no matter how insignificant it is for people." ”
"Uncle Anderson, I remember that you are not a Bloodline Knight, and Zimmer is not by your side now." The bloodline knight with his body surrounding the flame stood in front of Elenor, and the flame in his right hand grew stronger.
Duke Anderson's body surrounded a cloud of white light and said lightly: "It's more than enough to deal with an immature little girl." ”
Duke Anderson is a general of a country, and there are many people abroad or at home who want his life, so the equipment he wears is basically high-level enchantment equipment customized by the magic workshop, and ordinary people can exert a power comparable to that of a bloodline knight.
······
In the outer square of the concert hall, as the leader of the Iris Knights Zimmer joined the battlefield, the main force of the Iris Knights began to act, and the assassins also sent a large number of bloodline knights, a small number of whom still belonged to the head and face of the Barron Kingdom, and the forces in the kingdom that could recruit so many bloodline knights at one time Harvey could only think of the royal family.
Zimmer has the power to control the leylines, and his strength is not insignificant, but the [Lava Spray] will also be dissolved by the frost on the living statue, and the torn bronze statue will once again fuse into a killing machine to join the battlefield, restricting Zimmer.
Not only in the square, but also in the residential buildings on both sides of the street, you can often hear strange noises, or the sound of steam guns, or loud roars, or the neighing of swords.
Harvey, who had turned into a cat, returned to the carriage to watch the show.
"Boom!"
Built by the founding emperor of the Barron Kingdom, representing the highest level of music in the Barron Kingdom, there was a loud roar from the Norton Royal Music Hall, and the flames rose into the sky, lighting up half of the night sky, and the monstrous flames turned into huge waves and rushed towards the surroundings, and the buildings with the reputation of the Honey Hall and the Golden Hall were flooded by the sea of fire in an instant.
"What!"
"What's going on!?"
"Not good! The Duke is still inside! The real target of this assassination is the Duke! ”
The members of the fleur-de-lis, who were fighting fiercely in the outer square, looked back in amazement, obviously there were special knights guarding the safety, but without the slightest warning, a terrifying flame broke out, and the only thing that could be thought of was that there was a problem inside.
······
The black-clad assassin tried to persuade him to surrender: "Zimmer, it's better to surrender as soon as possible, just look at the tragic situation in the concert hall and know that we have already succeeded, we are all members of the Iris, and there is no need to continue fighting." ”
Zimmer looked back at the skyrocketing flames in Norton's Royal Music Hall, and frowned: "Are there any of you in there?" Indeed, I can't imagine that a member of the same iris will have a day when they will meet each other. ”
As he spoke, the sword-wielding right hand swung horizontally, stabbing at the assassin in layers.
"Stubborn! Then you should also die with Duke Anderson! The Assassin sneered disdainfully, a puff of black smoke erupting from his mouth, and consciously drifted towards Zimmer's position, where the protruding thorns decayed and routed.
The situation is getting worse and worse, the Iris Knights have invested a lot of bloodline knights in this assassination, but the other party's bloodline knights are more numerous, and they know the ability of the Iris Knights' bloodline knights very well, and they can easily find the weaknesses of the Iris Knights and break them one by one, and now the members of the Iris Knights have lost more than half, and it has become a one-sided slaughter.
······
"Harvey, isn't there something wrong?" Count Henrietta looked at Harvey who had turned into a white cat and asked tremblingly, the fierce battle outside was completely beyond his comprehension, it is not surprising that this scale of combat power is said to subvert a national power, why would it be used to assassinate him and Harvey?
Harvey, whose body had turned into a white cat, could still speak normally, and used the prophecy spell to sense the battle situation outside and nodded: "Sort of, the members of the Iris Knights have almost been killed." ”
Count Henrietta was shocked when he heard this, the Knights of Iris is recognized as the strongest legion in the kingdom, known for its elite, each of them claims to be one out of 100,000 people, and now it is almost completely wiped out? He prayed to the heavens, "Is this my death day?" ”
Harvey didn't really care: "It's good to be dead, and I'll feel less guilty later." ”
The confused Count Henrietta couldn't understand Harvey's words, and his body shook and kept muttering: "Damn, what are we going to do, then we will be targeted sooner or later." ”
The white cat's vertical pupils contracted, "No, they don't have that chance, I don't care what the conspiracy is in this assassination operation, I must make them understand the consequences of provoking people who shouldn't be provoked." ”
No matter who Harvey is targeting this assassination, he plans to flip the table and stop playing, the carriage is outside the range of influence of the silence technique, but Harvey, who has been turned into a white cat, still can't cast spells normally, and it's no problem to cast spells, and it's one thing to be able to chant spells accurately. Harvey's strength is not as simple as casting spells, such as the language of songs, or Ruby Ruby's ability to contract.
