Chapter 80: The Night of the Long Knife and Blood

The collapse of the Knights of Glory made the palace naked in front of Rolf's eyes like a girl who had torn off the last fig leaf......

On the same day, a fire broke out in a remote mansion in the palace, and it was a great pity that although the fire was put out in time and did not cause much damage to the palace as a whole, the Grand Prince Frederick did not escape, and the empire soon lost another royal family after losing their emperor

"Your Highness, I'm sorry, because the fire spread so quickly, our soldiers were unable to rescue His Royal Highness the Great Prince who was trapped in it......"

Saru said with a smile that stood half a step behind Rolf

"Really......"

With his hands behind his back, among the many guards under his command, Rolf quietly watched the burning mansion, and the countless soldiers on the periphery not only did not participate in the firefighting, but held weapons as if they were guarding against something, or preventing some people from escaping

The dancing light of the fire reflected off Rolf's face, highlighting a strange and distorted pattern, and he waited patiently on the hilt of his sword, until the last house had completely collapsed, and then turned in silence

"Saru, go and inform the gods that if they don't act, all our previous agreements will be null and void, and tomorrow morning, I will at least see the nobles who can fill the palace to witness my coronation in person, and ...... Let our soldiers disperse too, and if the nobles do not recognize my legitimacy, there will be no need for them to exist anymore......"

With that, Rolf shook his slug and walked without hesitation towards the palace that once belonged to his father

According to the records of the imperial history, on the day of the change of the imperial capital, there was an indescribable scandal in the court, after which not only all the palace maids were executed by Rolf, but the beautiful queen also hanged herself in the palace with her own hands......

**********************

As time progressed towards night, the darkness intensified the appearance of the ugliness of the world for everyone, as if unleashing the hidden devil in their hearts, the firelight, screams and begging made this city that carried the centuries-old history of the empire a paradise for all troublemakers and looters

Countless wolf-like city defense troops, under the leadership of the officer, smashed open the gate in groups, and rushed into the mansion of the nobles who were still high before, they were surprised, after peeling off the noble skin of ordinary life, these nobles who once controlled their life and death were so fragile, countless wealth, unattainable noblewomen and maidens, were so easy to obtain......

Emir was the most ordinary sword and shield soldier, he raised his hand with red eyes and slashed one of the barons who had kicked and insulted him to the ground, and despite the blood spreading underground, he greedily licked his lips, grabbed the hair of the little daughter of the baron who was screaming wildly, and rubbed it fiercely......

In the end, he overwhelmed all the etiquette and shame, he was in front of countless people, right next to the corpse of the woman's father, rudely tore the girl's dress, and pounced directly on it viciously......

In the roar and shouting, the guards and knights under the command of the nobles, who seemed to be a little sparse at this time, kept wielding their swords to resist the waves of chaotic troops that poured in like a tide, until they were completely overwhelmed by the crowd, and only a very few lucky ones had the opportunity to take their masters out of the encirclement and disappear into unknown corners

In the burning streets, a group of rebels carried packages full of belongings on their shoulders, and several soldiers even hugged or carried several young women in ragged clothes, laughing at each other and walking out of the ransacked mansion, only to be stunned by the scene before them

Aeolith looked at the soldier in front of him who looked like a refugee with some disgust from the Templar Order, subconsciously rubbed his nose, and said in an undisguised mocking tone to his subordinates behind him

"If I could, I'd rather kill these maggots, and see what they look like now, even the dirtiest and ugly barbarians are much better than them, does Rolf want to rely on these people to rule the empire, or resist the possible counterattack of the nobles?"

Lazily stretched out his slender white fingers and flicked his nails, the Templar commander glanced at the scattered city defenders, tilted his head and motioned for his subordinates to step forward, and slowly spoke

"All the people are scattered, in groups of hundred, to purge all the nobles on the list sent by Rolf before, and ...... The church also needs money so that the glory of the Most High God can be spread to the world......"

"Of course, praise be to the great Most High God, and your command will be carried out in full! Well, my lord, if we encounter a conflict between Rolf's men and us, I need your clear instructions."

After the subordinate knight nodded and received the order, he asked another question with some hesitation

"Humph!"

After gently patting the neck of the pure white war horse and calming his mount, Eoris snorted coldly

"Anyone who stands in the way is an enemy of the Most High God, of course, don't leave a living mouth, as subordinates, we shouldn't cause trouble for His Holiness the Pope, right?"

"As you wish, my lord! The foolish rules of the imperial capital make it so that no nobleman but us can have more than 500 armed, and here, we have no rival, and the glory of the Most High God will soon shine on the entire city, the entire empire! ”

"I have no doubt about that, let's do it, don't give that idiot Rolf a chance to accuse us of not fulfilling our agreement!"

***********************

"Kill!"

Dressed in iron armor, like the legendary Titan, Tydamir frantically rushed into a small group of raiding rebels

The heavy [Omen's Wolf Axe] could not create any burden in his hands, and swept away like a windmill with a piercing scream, even if the skilled veteran had subconsciously made a blocking move, the standard long sword in his hand could not resist the incomparable force that followed, and broke one after another......

The blood and stumps all over the ground aroused the murderous nature of the barbarian warriors even more, and he turned his head and walked barefoot on the bloody face towards the captain who had escaped his life, and the latter, who was frightened by the cruel killing, squatted on the ground, kept retreating with his hands and feet, grabbing anything around him with terror and throwing it at Tydamir, and his mouth let out a miserable howl as if he had been insulted

"No...... Don't come here, damn it, I'm Your Highness's man, and you'll pay for it...... God, help, spare me, everything here is for you, please spare me......"

Carefully carrying his brand-new tomahawk behind his back, Tedamir grabbed his opponent's indiscriminate kicks and lifted them upside down, licking his lips bloodthirstily and turning his head to look at Leo

The corpses in the courtyard next to him, several disheveled girls lying in pools of blood, such a tragic situation made Leo nod at Tedamir

Grinning and smiling horribly at the struggling rebel commander, Tedamir exhaled and exhaled with a force that tore the man in his hand in two pieces

"Phew!"

Reaching out to wipe away the blood mist sprayed on his face, Tydamir casually threw away the corpse in his hand and returned to Leo's side with a strong smell of blood

"My lord, even in the conflict of our barbarian tribes, few people will attack unarmed women and children, did these people really once be the army that guarded the empire?"

"Soldiers? No, my friend, they don't even deserve to be called human anymore after they drew their butcher knives and committed all these crimes......"

Spit out these words bitterly, Leo raised his head on horseback, the once prosperous and rich imperial capital has been completely surrounded by fire and blood at this moment, and countless faint shouts and screams have come one after another

With a gentle smack of the unicorn's belly, Leo took a deep breath and yelled at the long convoy behind him

"Go ahead, let's get out of this hell!"
