Chapter Seventy-Seven: The King's Fall

When the dust settled, Joika circled around the ruins and shook her head in disappointment.

"Did Julian get away?" asked Cassius, walking up with Ischennova on his back.

"I didn't find my arrow on the ground, it must have hit the guy. Joyka said with some reluctance.

Looking at the mummy-like bandages on Joika and Lyle's bodies, Ischenova asked, "Brother, were you and Mr. Joika injured like this by the man named 'Julian'?"

"Don't mention it, I don't want to run into that guy again. Lyle waved his hand, and he still had palpitations.

"But why did Julian do this? I still can't believe that a man like him would be a lackey of the Truth Society. Cassius said.

"That's why I'm going to get him back and ask him about it. Joy Kado.

......

Friends, you and I discussed word by word, but Owen, who knew Julian the longest and knew him best, did not say a word at this time. Owen knew what Julian wanted to do, and he knew that no one could stop Julian's actions.

"Hey, guys, we have other business to do. Owen reminded his friends of the rambling discussion as he put away his tarot deck, at this point any prediction and divination were no longer important, and it was inevitable that Julian had completely broken with his own past with his actions.

After Owen's reminder, siblings Joyka, Cassius, Lyle, and Ischennova noticed that before they knew it, they were once again in danger. Dense and colorful all kinds of poisonous spiders are coming out from under the rubble and broken rocks, and they are pouring towards the five people like a tide......

The inner courtyard of the palace.

In a small space, the fighting was more tragic than you could have imagined.

As the new leader of the werewolf clan, although the gray and white giant wolf transformed by Jane Na is extremely fierce, the twenty or so knights she has to deal with are definitely not ordinary people. They formed a tight formation with shields and spears, and worked closely with each other, sometimes retreating, and cooperating well, forcing Jaenne into defeat after paying a few casualties.

The gray wolf was covered in many places, scarred and bloodstained, and even the werewolf clan's super self-healing ability could not keep up with the speed of physical injuries, but Jane still rushed forward desperately. Seeing that she was getting farther and farther away from the three of the Duris family, Jana's heart became more and more impatient, if she still couldn't hunt Duris above this distance, she would not be able to complete the mission, and her motivation to continue to survive was gone, so the gray wolf's counterattack became more and more fierce, and the boiling wolf blood sprinkled on the faces of some knights, burning them to the flesh and screaming bitterly, but none of them took a step back.

With neither side backing down, any bit of external intervention can completely change the tide of the war.

Suddenly, there was a loud "boom", and the marble dome of the inner courtyard of the palace was knocked open with a large hole, and a large amount of sand and stone also fell. The gray wolf reacted sharply and leaped away in time, but the soldiers in a tight formation were not so lucky, they were smashed by the sand and gravel falling from the sky, and in the midst of a wail, the defensive formation also disintegrated.

In a pile of sand and gravel, a female warrior in full uniform appeared.

It took Sophia a long time to break the barrier under Christina's cloth. As soon as she regained her freedom, Sophia immediately lunged towards the location where Duris was, armed her with the soul of the Valkyrie, and smashed it directly through the dome of the inner courtyard of the palace from the sky, reaching the battlefield in a shocking manner.

Most of the knights present had never seen Sophia, and the few knights, including Sakoros, had never seen her Valkyrie form, and reflexively regarded the uninvited warrior as an enemy, and almost all of them raised their weapons and pounced on Sophia.

"Empress Shield - Absolute Flame" - Sophia had long expected this to happen, so as soon as she fell to the ground, she activated the strongest defense of the Valkyrie fused with the "Power of Stigmata", and a wall of power formed by the divine flame blocked all the incoming knights, and then released them and bounced them away.

Of course, Sophia did not continue to embarrass the knights who were friends and foes, and after getting rid of the entanglement, Sophia picked up her spear and rushed straight towards the gray wolf.

Knowing that she had become a target, Jane naturally did not sit idly by, and the wolf paw raised, taking advantage of the huge size, condescendingly, and slapped Sophia's spear with one claw.

"Boom" - the spear plunged diagonally into the ground under the heavy blow, instead of piercing the wolf's heart like it had done before, but Sophia had more than one weapon at her disposal, she raised her shield in her left hand and slammed it into the wolf's head.

"Oh woo......" The giant wolf roared miserably, and was hit by Sophia's shield blow and flew out, hitting the wall with a "boom", rebounding and falling to the ground, bleeding from seven holes, and being seriously injured. The impact caused the entire inner courtyard of the palace to reverberate, and more sand and gravel fell from the pierced dome.

The soldiers present were stunned, and more than 20 of them joined forces to resist, only to reluctantly force back the giant wolf, but it was far less than a girl's shield. How unwise it was for them to attack her indiscriminately just now.

But......

"Ahhhhh......h

Princess Di Yu suddenly let out a terrifying scream, and she threw her hands on her knees, and sat on the ground, burying her head in her knees, looking very frightened.

"What's wrong with you? Dieucalyptus!" Duris didn't know why his daughter was suddenly so alarmed, and he immediately squatted down and hugged his daughter.

However, Princess Di suddenly raised a right hand, which was holding a blue spar in the shape of a pointed cone.

"That's ......," Sophia cried out in surprise.

She recognized the blue spar in Princess Di's hand, which was actually the stone embedded in the wall of the Holy Coffin that could absorb the power of the "stigma". At this time, the blue spar was flickering, and it seemed to resonate with the power of the "stigma" released by Sophia, or rather, Sophia had just used the power of the "stigma" to activate the stone.

The little girl suddenly straightened up, clenched the stone with both hands, and plunged hard into her father's heart with one end of her pointed vertebrae!

......

Frightened, Duris looked at his daughter in front of him, and then looked down at the stone that had been inserted into his chest, blood dripping down the edge of the stone. Seeing that the flickering frequency of the hedron was becoming more and more frequent, Duris seemed to be aware of some ominous omen, and he pushed his daughter away a few meters with force, and then took a few steps backwards himself.

Then, the hedron exploded with a "bang", and although the scale of the explosion was small, it was enough to blow Duris's stomach open, and all the internal organs in his body were stirred to pieces. The king's blood and flesh were splashed all over the faces of several knights next to him.

"No !!!!"

Queen Catherine, who had just woken up, saw this terrifying scene, and the damage to the magic feedback was further deepened, and Catherine fainted again.

"Dad was bleeding a lot...... Daddy was bleeding a lot......" Princess Di Eucalyptus repeated her dream in a wooden manner, then leaned back and fell to the ground with a "thud".

Such a sight also stunned Sophia, and she remembered the words that Christina had said before leaving: "The murderer of Duris will be a person you don't expect." ”

Indeed, Christina was right. No matter how airtight the precautions were made, he would never have thought that the person who took his life in the end would be his favorite daughter!
