Chapter 194: The Summons of the Current King Brumman
As the blades of ice and snow in the sky slowly fell, the originally indestructible pale black membrane clicked, and a trace of crack actually appeared.
If you look closely, you will see that there is some strange frost near the rift.
"Ah, hit them down, hit them down!"
Seeing this scene, those little demon monsters were anxious, and hurriedly threw the weapons in their hands towards several ice and snow blades in the sky.
However, their attacks did not have any effect on the Ice Blade.
I saw the nine blades of ice and snow slowly falling, penetrating through the pale black film, as if cutting into a piece of tofu, and with a muffled sound, it used the head of the dark brood creature as the source, instantly penetrating its entire body.
A black liquid like blood flowed out of the wound in a surging manner, forming a small pool of water that emitted a foul smell.
"Ahh
In an instant, the creatures that had been pierced through the dark brood by the blades immediately let out an extraordinarily penetrating scream.
But the sound didn't last long, and after a while, they stopped, and they snapped to the ground, as if they had turned into cold bodies.
"They killed our brood, revenge, revenge, we need revenge."
After all the dark brood creatures died, those little demon monsters immediately aimed their anger at Roland and the others.
They turned their heads, their eyes full of anger, and they brandished their blades neatly and rushed towards them, as if they wanted to sacrifice the blood of the nobles to the dead creatures of the Dark Brood.
But now that they have lost their source, these monsters are not to be afraid at all, it only takes a few rounds of fireball magic salvos to shoot down, and it is estimated that there will not be much left.
"Fireball!"
Roland waved his hand casually and snorted. Hundreds of pale golden fireballs appeared on the ceiling again.
As the thought in his heart moved, there was a bang, and the fireball technique was like a dense rain of fire, and it suddenly fell down, and with a bang, the scorching flames burst out in an instant. Devour the bodies of some small devil monsters.
Boom, boom, several rounds of fireball bombardment in a row.
Before those little demon monsters could get in front of Roland, they turned into a mass of black charred corpses.
The pungent smell of barbecue filled the banquet hall, and even the nobles couldn't help but cover their noses to avoid smelling the disgusting burnt smell.
"That's it, just find a way to get out of here! Molly, thank you...... You're all alright, right? β
Roland looked at the dead corpses and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
But just as he was about to thank the Ice Queens for their help, he was surprised to find that they looked very weak. It's as if the power in the body has been drained.
"No, my master, we just need a little rest."
Molly, the Ice Queen, quickly dispelled Roland's suspicions, saying that she was just using too much power.
"Alright, you guys should go back inside and rest for a while."
Roland hesitated, but finally chose to believe them.
After all, the cost of using a level 7 group magic is not small, and it is not inferior to releasing a forbidden spell.
If it's just an overuse of mana, there's really no need to worry. It only takes some time to recover.
So he decided to take the 21 Ice Queens back to Ouroboros Ring, with a wave of his arm. With a snort, the Ice Queens disappeared from their place, leaving only a group of stunned nobles and Roland.
[Ding, kill 10 dark brood creatures Γ and gain 50,000 experience points.] γ
[Ding, obtain 100 Dark Soul Fragments.] γ
Meanwhile. Two messages prompting the monster to kill pop up in front of Roland's eyes.
If it's the former, it's understandable, but what exactly is the latter, and what is the Dark Soul Fragment?
With such a question, Roland immediately opened his storage ring.
Keep your eyes on it. I saw that there were about a hundred black spar fragments placed inside, and there were bursts of pale black aura around their bodies, which looked particularly weird.
"Dark Soul Fragments? I don't think I've ever seen a prop like this......"
Roland pondered for a moment, then clicked on their messages.
γDark Soul Shardγ
Grade: Rare
Effects: Materials used for certain dark magic.
Notes: These are fragments dropped by souls that have been corrupted by darkness, and if you study them closely, you may be able to discover the true meaning of darkness.
"Baron Roland, can we get out of here now?"
Suddenly, a voice beside him pulled him back from his musings, and he turned his head to see that it was Weeks and his sister Ainara.
"Thank you very much for your help, Baron Roland."
At this time, Prince Wicks looked no different from ordinary people, and said to Roland with a calm look on his face, and he did not show any abnormalities because he was Roland's puppet.
"It should be soon...... Those monsters have been slain, and the dark power that envelops this place will soon dissipate. β
Roland was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around and responded.
He was secretly relieved about Wicks' actions.
If His Royal Highness spoke to him in the tone of a servant, then things would have gone terribly bad.
At that point, I'm afraid Roland will have to kill everyone in the banquet hall to prevent his relationship with Wicks from being known.
"Help me...... Help me......"
Just as everyone waited for the dark power that enveloped the banquet hall to dissipate, a weak voice burst into everyone's ears.
Roland was shocked, could it be that there were other monsters?
He hurriedly followed the direction of the sound, and saw that in the southwest of the hall, there was a nobleman covered in blood, and he was also an acquaintance of Roland.
That's right, it's the Marquis of Moultrie who he said he would regret Roland.
At this time, the Marquis of Moultrie was very wolf, his gorgeous clothes were stained with blood, and many injuries could be seen on his body, and even his hair looked a little burnt.
"Help me...... Help me......"
Although his voice continued to echo in the banquet hall, no nobleman dared to step forward to help.
After all, no one knows if there will be monsters alive in that pile of corpses. It is not a cost-effective thing to take your own life for this.
"Alas...... I'll do it anyway. β
Roland stopped Catherine, a priest beside him who looked entangled but wanted to come forward to save people, and walked alone in the direction of the Marquis of Moultrie.
When he came to the southwest of the banquet hall, he found that the Marquis of Moultrie's left leg had been completely sawed off, and blood was pouring out. If he continues to bleed like this, this guy will really die.
"Baron Roland, help me, save me...... I'm willing to trade a secret in exchange. β
Seeing that Roland was the only one willing to come, Moultrie hurriedly lifted his spirits and said anxiously to him.
"Secret? Tell me about ......"
At this time, Roland was not in a hurry, slowly squatted in front of him, and said softly.
"I will tell you the secret...... You promised to save me. β
"Hmm. If the secret works for me, I'll save you, say it. β
"I ...... I know a secret about Prince Lorenzo...... Lately he's been travelling to Aston North to meet up with some strange people...... In addition, I had noticed that there were a lot of traces of military activity in the area outside the North Gate.
Right now...... I can tell you with certainty that Prince Lorenzo is ready to take the throne!
Hurry up, get Wick and Ainara right now, and you might be able to become a duke by then." β
The Marquis of Moultrie cautiously glanced at the nobles not far away, and said to Roland in a low voice.
"How do you know?"
A hint of wariness flashed in Roland's eyes. Asked calmly.
Although he had known for a long time that Lorenzo was going to rebel, this sentence contained an important message.
Outside the north gates, there are traces of the activities of a large number of troops. Other words...... The information that the Karen Empire's military forces supporting Lorenzo would enter the city in that place was very useful to Roland.
"I happened to be back from the North Side that day...... I accidentally saw Prince Lorenzo and some people in exotic costumes, so I was curious to track it down......... What I'm saying is true, you must save me. β
Moultrie seemed to think that Roland did not believe him, and hurriedly pleaded with him.
"Hmm. I'll save you! But you can't tell these secrets after you leave here...... Otherwise, I will let you experience the taste of death again. β
Roland said to Moultrie as he released his healing hand.
At this time, they couldn't let the news get out, after all, they needed time to prepare for Lorenzo's betrayal.
Just as he was treating this marquis. The dark power that enveloped the banquet hall began to dissipate, and sunlight poured through the windows into every corner of the hall, dispelling the terrifying atmosphere that permeated the surrounding area.
In a short time, the wound on Moultrie's body basically stopped bleeding, and as for his broken foot, there was basically no hope of reconnecting it.
"Alright...... Hey, which of you has a better relationship with him? Lift him up, there is no danger there. β
Suddenly, Roland stood up from the ground and said to the timid nobles.
Although he confirmed it, it was a long time before an older nobleman came out and helped the disabled Marquis Moultrie on the ground to his feet, and let the fellow crawl out of the pile of dead people.
"Find Prince Wicks and Princess Ainara, and protect them with your lives!"
Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the door to the outside world was slammed open.
A group of sharply armored level 50 soldiers rushed in, shields and blades in both hands, and quickly surrounded the entire banquet hall.
"Your Highness Wicks, you haven't been harmed, have you?"
One of the burly men stepped out of the crowd and walked quickly to Wicks, asking with concern in his eyes.
"Well, under the protection of Baron Roland, there is no danger. By the way, General Grini, you can let the soldiers dispose of the corpses of some of those nobles, they need a funeral ...... now"
Wicks nodded faintly, and then pointed to the pile of corpses in the center of the banquet hall, and said.
"Yes, Your Highness Wicks."
The General Grini answered, and led a group of soldiers to clean up the corpses in the banquet hall.
Originally, Roland was going to follow the ranks of the nobles and leave the Bloomman Palace.
But a soldier brought Roland the surprising news: the current King Brumman wanted him to meet him at the same time as Wicks.
Oh my God, what the hell does that old guy want to see him?
On the way to the depths of the palace with Wicks, Roland pondered this question in his mind.
