Chapter 402: The Knight's Ceremony is Coming!
In the study, Zhou Yao told what happened in the open-air café. ●⌒,
"Gilgamesh, that guy is coming to trouble you again?" Artoria asked, frowning.
"It just happened to happen." Zhou Yao said nonchalantly.
"Those Assassins are coming for Nero......"
Artoria fell into deep thought, and the atmosphere in the study suddenly became heavy.
"Speaking of which, you two look alike. It can't be long-lost twin sisters, right? ”
In order to ease the atmosphere, Zhou Yao couldn't help but make a little joke.
When I hadn't seen a real person before, I thought it was carved out of a mold, but now when I see a real person, it's really like twin sisters.
"How is it possible, she and I are not from the same era." Artoria explained angrily.
Having said that, she herself had to admit that Nero looked too much like her. Together with Mordred, they are simply twin sisters.
"Huh. Nero seems to have come to seek your refuge this time? Zhou Yao smiled, and then asked.
Iskandar only briefly mentioned it, but he didn't quite know what it was.
"Well, 'Rome' is now in the midst of court civil strife. Many emperors survived that disaster, and no one was willing to be subservient. Although Caesar won the throne in the end, he did not live comfortably. Nero didn't want to get involved in living in the quagmire anymore, so he wanted to change the environment and come to the University of Britain. ”
Artoria did not hide it either, explaining in detail.
As one of the former emperors of Rome, Nero has a powerful combat power that cannot be ignored, so he is regarded by others as a thorn in the eye.
Nero came to Britannia to stay away from right and wrong, but others didn't necessarily believe it. It was thought that she was looking for help from Britain to turn the tide in Rome.
The purpose of sending the killer today was not to assassinate Nero, but to use her as a reason to cause casualties at Britannia University.
It was the eve of the start of the knightly ceremony, and what I feared most was trouble and chaos. And the other party's purpose is to declare to the University of Britain that no matter how many people died, no matter what the knighthood was affected, it was because Nero was here.
This was to force Nero to leave through the hands of the University of Britannia. It will be difficult to succeed in the act of assistance.
Of course, the above is just Altoria's speculation.
The relationship between her and Nero is not bad, and perhaps it is for this reason that the people in Rome "think too much".
"No, if you're worried about Nero asking for help, Caesar should be the one who worries the most, right? He was the Ten Kings of Rome. ”
After listening to Artoria's explanation, Zhou Yao suddenly felt that something was wrong. But it's not clear which one it is. I had to pick the most obvious questions to ask.
"Not really. Not long ago, Caesar had just proclaimed Nero as the crown prince, and if Nero could seek assistance from other countries, it would be more conducive to the succession of the throne. But that day doesn't necessarily come. Caesar is not a guy who is willing to give up his rights. ”
Artoria said meaningfully.
"Uh...... Your circle is really messy. Zhou Yao was confused when he heard it, and finally had to come to such a conclusion.
The palace infighting was terrible.
Even after listening to Artoria's words, he still didn't have a clear connection.
"What are you going to do with Nero?"
"I'll talk to Nero later. The Knight's Ceremony is about to begin, and we can't let something like this affect the Knight's Ceremony. ”
Artoria said in a deep voice.
"Okay, then I'll go out first."
Zhou Yao nodded, got up and left the study.
Time passed quickly, and as evening approached, Elquette and the others finally returned.
Everyone had a satisfied smile on their face and looked like they were having a great time.
"You said you found the Hurricane Rider?!"
Originally, Zhou Yao was so happy to see them, so he wasn't going to ask about the Hurricane Knight. As a result, I didn't expect Shika to tell him that he had seen a hurricane knight.
"Hmm!"
Shika puffed up her chest proudly and nodded.
"Are you sure it's a Hurricane Rider?"
Zhou Yao frowned, expressing deep doubts about Shixiang's IQ.
She couldn't have mistaken the other weapons as Hurricane Knights.
"There's no mistake about it, it's the Hurricane Rider."
Shika puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction and expressed a strong protest against Zhou Yao's suspicions.
"Okay, okay. Where is that Hurricane Rider? Zhou Yao believed her once.
"Ah, I don't know."
Shika was stunned for a moment and said.
Hearing this, Zhou Yao was also stunned.
"What do you mean, I don't know?"
"I just saw it, and I don't know where it is. You didn't say bring back the Hurricane Rider. Shixiang said confidently.
"......" Zhou Yao was silent and speechless.
I believed that Shika was such a fool before!
"Well, you go and call the maid who is following you."
Zhou Yao felt powerless and asked Shixiang to call the maid who was walking with her.
It's good to be prepared, otherwise you will be killed by the ten fragrances.
Soon, the maid was called. Zhou Yao inquired, and the answer he got was "I didn't find it".
At this moment, Zhou Yao's face immediately darkened, and he glared at Shixiang fiercely.
"Explain it to me."
"I just saw it!" Shixiang was quite aggrieved.
"Then tell me about what you saw at the time."
"I remember it was a little girl with a Hurricane Knight on her back......"
Shika described it with teary eyes, looking particularly aggrieved.
"It's me who blames you, our family's ten incense is the best."
Zhou Yao smiled helplessly, reached out and stroked Shixiang's head, and comforted her loudly.
According to Toka, the person holding the Hurricane Knight is a petite girl in armor.
The image is very recognizable, and it also brings Zhou Yao an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
It seems, the other party is someone he knows?
But since he missed it, Zhou Yao didn't plan to dig deeper. It should come, and it will always come.
In a blink of an eye, a few days passed quietly. During this period, the terrorist attacks involving Nero did not happen again.
At night, the goblins of Ideal Country fly around the University of Britannia and offer invitations to the chosen ones for the king.
Two of them became part of the competition as expected. Zhou Yao regretted that he was not selected.
It's Yuu who gets an invitation from a goblin, which is really unexpected. As a result, there are only two people on Zhou Yao's side who are sure to participate in the competition.
On the second day, the entire University of Britain was in a festive mood.
The sound of firecrackers was incessant, and the streets were filled with celebratory crowds.
Finally, the much-anticipated knight ceremony is about to begin.
Who will stand out at the ceremony? And who will take the throne of knights?
Under the expectant eyes of everyone, the opening ceremony came. (To be continued.) )
