"The Great Lord of Shadows is watching everything in secret!"

The figure in the mist shrieked and laughed, as piercing as the night owl's cry: "It's just that you need to offer sacrifices to please the Great Lord of Shadows, just as you did twenty years ago!" ”

The Duke of Wellington closed his eyes in agony. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

That year, he did not occupy a high position in the family, and it was his eldest brother who really had the right to inherit, an existence that seemed to have gathered the glory of all the gods.

In order to gain supreme authority, he launched an assault on the throne of his heir, and after a crushing defeat, the Duke encountered the self-proclaimed 'Hand of Shadows', who served a god named the 'Lord of Shadows'.

Tempted by the forces of evil, he made his own demands and sacrificed his beloved...... From that day on, although he became the Duke of Wellington as he wished, he felt that his heart had fallen into darkness.

"What do you want this time......

His voice was dry, like a desert traveler dying of thirst.

"The souls of all your children!"

The man in the shadows made a bid.

"What?"

The Duke of Wellington was shocked: "This price is too high, I am here to keep the family, but if I never have an heir, the Wellington family will eventually fall into the hands of others, what does it mean to me?" ”

"You may not know what I mean...... I'm talking about the souls of all the children around you right now! ”

The figure in the shadows laughed, and seemed to be a little unwilling: "My lord needs sacrifices, the stronger and more perfect, the better...... Originally, if your little Arthur was still here, whether it was to sacrifice his soul or the sword in stone, it would be enough to please my lord and grant any wish you had, but now ......"

"Then I have one more request, you must rescue Arthur!"

The Duke of Wellington is well aware of the power of the Lord of Shadows, and although he is not well-known on the continent of Thor, the Shadow Hand is a vast dark organization with power in almost all regions.

And the power of the Lord of Shadows is also real, at least some of the miracles can be accomplished, which is really much higher than those gods who have no god names but no power.

Perhaps, only in the church, the true God who has performed miracles, can be compared.

"Deal ......"

The black shadow smiled, and the black card suddenly burned.

Dark green flames danced wildly in the darkness, like a carnival of demons and demons......

……

"My king, as long as we climb the mountain in front of us again, we can see Lionheart City!"

In the barracks, 20,000 troops camped and rested in an orderly manner after a day's march, and Viscount Balak brought the scouts in return.

Because of the map, coupled with Garcia and a group of surrendered highland princes as internal ghosts, the Blue Dragon Alliance's march on the highlands can be said to be quite smooth.

"The other party has gathered tens of thousands of people, and it seems that they are ready to resist to the end!"

Viscount Bale looked a little excited: "Why don't we directly surround Lionheart City and send other troops to sweep the entire highland!" ”

"Very good plan!"

Wu Ming nodded in praise.

Once the heights are taken, there will be only one Lionheart City left, and even if there are tens of thousands of troops, it will be useless.

"It's just...... The gathering of a bunch of men and serfs just wanted me to stop? ”

He smiled and said, "Viscount Bale, I can assure you that the tall walls of Lionheart City can't stop me for a moment!" ”

"Our wooden artillery unit has been used many times, and a large number of barrels have been broken, and the ...... must be rebuilt"

Viscount Bale was a little puzzled, not knowing where Wu Ming's confidence came from.

"Is it true that when I came down for a few years, I climbed a wooden cannon technique?"

Wu Ming looked at his back as he left, but he was a little speechless.

Even if the wooden cannon is not good, with gunpowder, if you dig a tunnel and blast it under the city wall, it is also an excellent siege method.

Of course, he has other preparations, and when the time comes, he will be multi-pronged, and he will not be afraid of Lionheart's powerful defenses at all.

The red lions relied on the protection of the city wall and gathered tens of thousands of people to make Lionheart City a quagmire that dragged him, how could this wish come true?

"Just ......"

Wu Ming frowned.

At this time, the power of all the people in his body was surging, almost no less than that of the conquering king, and the perception brought by the true spirit made him feel a sense of danger like a man's back.

It was as if a conspiracy had taken shape against him.

"This plan should be dangerous to me......"

Wu Ming's eyes were full of excitement: "I almost thought that in this world, no one can help me!" ”

"Someone!"

He thought for a moment and commanded.

Immediately, several knights came in and saluted respectfully: "Bring Arthur here, and ...... You keep your tents close and stand by at all times, and all the watchmen are guarding near me! ”

At this time, in terms of the general trend, even if the Storm Horn or any of the princes rebelled, Wu Ming had enough time to deal with it, so the only weakness was in his own safety, and Arthur was also an unstable factor.

After calculating these clearly, it is natural to take targeted precautions.

The same is true for calling the knights and mages who can fight below, he has no intention of fighting alone with the other party, and becoming the master of the power, he naturally has to use the lives of the mountains and seas to cross the opponent, bully the weak with the strong, and bully the few with the crowd! At this time, giving the enemy a chance to fight a fair duel is completely a second offense.

Night.

Bonfires are lit in the barracks.

In the main tent, Wu Ming had a golden dinner plate in front of him, among which were golden lamb chops, borscht, and fruits after the meal.

On the other side of the table, Arthur was pale, but he could still maintain the etiquette of the nobility, he saluted respectfully first, his eyes unconsciously stared at the sumptuous dinner, and swallowed: "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to have dinner together!" ”

"Sit down!"

Wu Ming waved his hand to let the boy and the guards go down.

Arthur couldn't be his opponent at all anyway, and these people were quite reassured.

It's just that this kid seems to be a little unwilling, at least half of the current gobbling up appearance is pretending, trying to deceive his sympathy.

Wu Ming was quite speechless in his heart, and immediately pulled out a stone broken sword.

The moment he saw it, Arthur's movements were stunned.

"The proof of the king of the Lionheart King, only agrees with the true king's holy sword in the stone!"

Wu Ming smiled and showed the brilliance on the sword: "It used to belong to you!" ”

Arthur was really shocked at this time, it was already extremely incredible to be able to pick up the sword in the stone before the king of conquest, but the sword in the stone at that time was just an ordinary stone carved sword.

Now that it shines, it means that it is already possible to use the power in it.

'Am I not the true king?' ’

The blow to Arthur was simply incomparable.

And although Wu Ming is light on the surface, he is also a little solemn in his heart, and his powerful spirit is even more stubborn suppressing the call of the sword in the stone to the master.

The seal on this sword in the stone can be divided into four layers, the first layer is the contact curse, and no one who is recognized can touch it! ’

'The second layer is the personal buff, once activated, the knight's abilities will be greatly improved. ’

'The third layer is a small area buff, and the fourth layer should be to summon heroic spirits for a powerful increase in the battlefield area! ’

The current Wu Ming can only analyze the scope of the second layer of seals, but with his original quality, using the sword in the stone, no knight is an enemy of a sword.

"Now, it's yours!"

Arthur put down the knife and fork in his hand, his eyes staring directly at the light on the sword in the stone, and his voice was dry.

As soon as these words came out, Wu Ming suddenly felt that the resistance in the sword in the stone was a little weaker, and he already had a guess in his heart: 'Contracts and rituals?' ’

Some magic weapons must defeat the original owner and gain his approval before they can truly change hands, just like a spell ritual.

Of course, the core of the sword in the stone will not be so simple.

"Arthur, as my captive, I give your father the right to redeem you, but until then, everything you have belongs to me at my disposal!"

The approach of the shadow in the dark made Wu Ming stand up and come to Arthur, his oppressive gaze fell indifferently: "Now...... I want a cup of your blood! ”

Under his gaze, even Arthur had to give in, slicing his palm with a knife and pouring blood into the silver cup.

"Good!"

Wu Ming picked up the silver cup, with a light in his eyes, and thought silently: "With the method of blood sacrifice, it should be possible to break through the third layer of seals, so that the power of the sword in the stone will be greatly increased, except that it still can't summon the heroic spirit, it should be able to withstand my full power." ”

Whew!

At that moment, a fresh breeze blew a corner of the tent.

A black stream of air poured in from the gap, layered on top of each other, and formed a figure again.

This strange scene made Arthur seem to be grabbed by the throat and speechless for a long time.

"A shadow?"

Wu Ming was not shocked, and glanced at this shadow with indifferent eyes: "You dare to stab me, aren't you afraid of the guards outside?" ”

"Boom...... Guardsman? Under my silent enchantment, you can try! ”

The black shadow had a human-like body, and his blood-red eyes looked at Arthur again: "Very good...... You're all here! ”

"Who are you?"

A vague possibility arose, and a hint of ecstasy appeared in Arthur's heart.

Shout!

In the next moment, a black shadow rushed in front of Wu Ming like lightning, and a snow-white dagger appeared in his hand.

While!

Wu Ming raised his sword to block, and the sword in the stone burst out with golden flames, and the moment it collided with the dagger, the dagger was completely shattered, and the flames fell on the black shadow without diminishing.

"Ahh

A scream came, and the black shadow whistled again and again, and the shadows on his body dissipated a lot.

"Too weak! It's too weak! Not you! Let the real people come out! ”

Wu Ming held the sword in one hand and said solemnly.

"I ...... My Lord ......"

The black shadow roared and said a few words, and the aura on his body suddenly changed!

A vast and evil will has suddenly descended!
