Chapter 225: Accompanying Protection
Originally, Su Ling still had the idea of staying alive for interrogation, but the cultists here were too ruthless, and even they could sacrifice themselves. And it just so happened that Su Ling found out that the person he left behind might have encountered some situation, so he left the factory.
At this time, Su Ling felt that the other party was moving quickly, either running away or pursuing, and he was afraid that he had also encountered a cultist. Su Ling was afraid that he would give it for nothing, so he hurriedly rushed over.
Today's moon is obscured by dark clouds, the night is dark and the wind is high, the doors of residential buildings in the outer city are closed, and no one has turned on the lights, even if there is much movement on the street.
A teenager fled in such a daze in the darkness of the night, bleeding from his wounds as he walked, unaware that the monster that was tracking him followed his bloodstains and bit him deadly in the back.
Because the distance was not far, Su Ling quickly arrived at the scene and found a creature suspected of being a tentacle monster in the darkness following the bloodstains to track his master's son. And this tentacle monster moves quietly, and it is faster than his own master and son, so if it goes on like this, it won't take long to catch up, and if there is no outsider to intervene, I'm afraid it will be more than lucky.
Su Ling touched his chin, it seems that his master's son should have investigated something to investigate the cultist, could it be that the royal family had noticed the situation in the outer city from the beginning? Because, this young man is also a member of the royal family, and it is normal for the royal family to send him to investigate the situation.
So why did the evil gods come to Rose Harbor later? Su Ling shook his head, now is not the time to think about this question, although that tentacle monster may only be at the level of D-class, but if he doesn't make a move, the person will die.
The boy apparently didn't realize that a monster was following him behind him, and seemed to be planning to stay around a corner and rest for a while. This has brought the already shortened distance even closer, and it looks like it is about to catch up. Su Ling is here, so naturally he can't sit back and watch such a tragedy happen.
A sword aura slashed out of his hand, and the tentacle monster was silently killed in the darkness, and the corpse was just around the corner beside the boy, perhaps only a step away from the boy.
The boy who escaped briefly treated the wounds on his body, glanced in the direction of the inner city, and continued to run.
At this time, in another place, a black-clothed man who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes suddenly opened his eyes and said, "The evil god heir I sent out to track that kid has lost contact, and I don't know if he was captured or killed by someone else." ”
A person next to him shook his head and said, "It's okay, that kid doesn't matter to us, it's not a big threat, let's continue to do things according to the original plan." ”
"Yes, I see, sir." The man in black looked at the person in front of him, stopped talking, and finally nodded, indeed, there should be no one in the royal capital to stop them.
Su Ling also protected the injured boy all the way into the inner city, and the guards in the inner city couldn't find Su Ling who was following him in the dark, and he was also exempted from the investigation in the middle of the night.
And after the young man just showed a certificate, he was released, and he walked in the direction of the royal capital without stopping, Su Ling continued to follow, knowing that he came to the vicinity of the palace.
"It's strange, that sense of oppression is gone." Su Ling had some doubts when he came to the vicinity of the palace, because in the inner city before, he could faintly feel a sense of oppression in this direction, but not tonight. In the end, the Sword Saint hid his voice, or the Sword Saint left the royal capital.
Could it be that the Sword Saint temporarily left the Rose Kingdom for some reason, which caused the Rose King to be taken advantage of by the cultists?
It's just that it's so just right, it always feels premeditated.
Su Ling thought about it for a while, and finally decided to sneak into the palace to see who his master's son was going to report this matter to.
In the darkness of the night, only the side hall was dimly lit, and the wounded man had made his way all the way to this place.
On the main seat, a girl in full costume had been waiting for a long time, and had withdrawn the left and right guards.
When the boy came in, he knelt down on one knee and said something to the girl.
Su Ling came in and happened to see this scene, it seems that this girl is the fourth king of the Rose Kingdom.
It's just that as soon as he came in, he was deeply attracted by the girl's appearance. He asked himself if he had seen a lot of beautiful women, no matter which mod he was in, he knew some women who were very good-looking, but it was rare to see them like Queen Rose.
If you want to compare one of the women she knows with this girl, the first thing that Su Ling thinks of is Bai Luoying. It's not that the temperament is similar, but he faintly feels that there seems to be a trace of divinity in this girl?
Divinity? Su Ling gasped, how did he come up with this word, just looking at the girl's face in the dim light, these two words jumped out. And he noticed that he had been staring at the queen for a long time, and that the injured boy had almost finished his report.
And what Su Ling can be sure of is that the other party does not belong to charm, if it is charming, he can easily distinguish it, after all, he has the skill of spiegel to stop water. However, Spiegel's inability to resist some of the innate affinities is a sacrosanct feeling, perhaps because of this, the word divinity jumped out of my mind, right?
And the other party's appearance can at least be in the top three among the women Su Ling has seen, which has a high gold content, and the women Su Ling has seen are not ordinary beauties.
Time passed, and the injured boy had already left the palace and retreated outside to treat his wounds.
And Su Ling wanted to see more clearly, so he quietly entered the palace.
But the dressed girl sitting on the throne said, "You've been staring at me for so long, and you're going to leave like this, and if you don't come out, let me see you too?" ”
She was obviously aware of Su Ling's movements, but Su Ling was going to come in, not go out.
Su Ling was also a little surprised, he was confident in his concealment, but he didn't expect to be discovered. But he also wanted to get a closer look at the face, so he came out.
Of course, the holy sword was carried behind him, and he stepped out of the shadows.
"I can feel the burning breath on you, you've been in the palace for a long time, from the time that kid came to me to report the situation. Did you protect that child? The girl looked at the man in front of her in a formal suit and asked.
There is nothing bad to admit this, Su Ling nodded and said, "When I destroyed a cultist den in the outer city, I found out that he was being chased by an evil creature, but he didn't find out, so I helped him finish it." Because I was curious about what his purpose was, I followed him all the way to the palace, hoping that the queen would forgive me, and I had no ill intentions. ”
