Chapter 242: The Edge Battle

Outside the city, monsters are pressing, and inside the palace is also extremely abnormal.

This upheaval was definitely more widespread than it had been nine years ago, at least nine years ago, when the rebels failed to breach the royal city and put the Henry family in danger. When Julius and Susan arrived at the gate of the palace overnight, they sensed that something was wrong - according to the rules, Susan had to go through a series of audits before she could set foot in the palace, and Julius might not be able to go with him, so they all came up with excuses on the way.

But when they stood at the entrance of the royal city, they found that the gates, which had always been heavily defended, were in disarray, and the soldiers who had been awakened from the barracks rushed to the city without stopping, and the sound of trumpets from the palace seemed to call them, and no one paid any attention to them.

Now is no longer the time to interrogate a suspicious person or two - the horn in the palace is sounded only in the most critical moments, and when it is played, it means that the king is in danger, and the soldiers rushing out of the palace testify to the state of danger inside. Assassins everywhere, enemies capable of infinite resurrection.

The only thing to be thankful for is that it is said that Lin Qiu and the others are fighting in the city, and another full moon rising in the palace greatly boosts the morale of the soldiers.

"What are you talking about, an assassin who can't be killed?"

Susan stopped a soldier with a pale face and purple lips in the midst of the chaos of the troops. The current situation in the palace at this time was brought out by him, he was the first to organize men to lead the charge, but after the soldiers swarmed up, he saw the situation hidden in the crowd, and moved in the opposite direction, obviously retreating.

Susan and Julius startled him, and his overly frightened appearance looked like Shi Lezhi.

"It's an assassin, I advise you not to send them to death, I saw with my own eyes, even Tyr and Shadow couldn't kill those monsters!"

He was one of the few survivors of the first attack, and after the first wave he escaped by hiding in a pile of corpses and playing dead. Luckily, he witnessed Lin Qiu and Ying fighting side by side, and at the end of that fierce battle, Lin Qiu's mark gathered everything around him into the air to suppress those monsters, and he escaped with pride.

But......

Although he swore allegiance to the royal family, he was still young, he had survived so many years in the Holy Mountain Academy, and finally joined the kingdom army, he didn't want to die so unexplained - he saw with his own eyes that the seniors who usually talked to him were separated in front of him, and those assassins came and went without a trace, how could they be the opponents of those monsters?

He won't go back if he says anything, and the responsibility of defending the royal family will be left to those hot-blooded guys.

He had planned to take advantage of the chaos to slip away, but he was stopped by Susan and Julius.

"Are you alright?" Susan professionally reached out and touched the soldier's forehead - this guy shouldn't be stupid, right? In her mind, there is no such thing as an unkillable person, and she has also studied Phoenix's blood, and found that the life force in her body cannot be inherited by humans at all.

"The one who can't be killed?" but Julius suddenly sounded the alarm in his heart: "Is it a strange old man with a lamp?"

He had encountered such an adversary when he was in the kingdom of Talen, and the group was nearly cornered.

"Of course not, weird old man!"

The soldier loudly denied it.

How could they have been killed by an old man and lost their armor! Although those assassins did not have three heads and six arms, their appearance was enough to bluff people: "They have dark skin, their arms do not look like humans, and their voices are very strange, like ...... It's like ......"

The soldier danced and gestured for a few moments, but could not say why.

Forgive him for his lack of expressive skills, but he had never seen such a strange creature since he was born, somewhat similar to humans, but completely different from them.

"Will they be able to recover after a short time after they are killed?"

"That's right!"

"I seem to know them. Julius said solemnly.

Faced with Julius' muttering, Susan couldn't help but ask, "Are you crazy too?"

"There really are such monsters, I fought against them in the Kingdom of Talon, and we couldn't completely destroy them by any means at that time!"

Julius said solemnly.

But his words had no credibility with Susan - Julius had told her a number of "funny" experiences with the same expression, including bloody battles with the Templars and hundreds of rounds of battles with unidentified masters in skull masks. Susan inquired about Julius's experience, a captain-level mission in the former Talon Kingdom, and has been in a state of unemployed vagrant since he came to the imperial capital.

It may not be obvious to say this, but it is much clearer to put it another way.

Julius' most brilliant achievement after coming to the imperial capital was a defeat to the Great Boar King with one move.

Therefore, Susan felt that even if there was really that kind of assassin who was enough to scare the Kingdom Army into delirium and could not be killed, it would have been solved long ago at the level of Julius.

Fortunately, the fleeing soldiers gave them a direction.

"Take us to Tyr, we're his friends. Susan commanded, with full aura.

"Look for him, I think you're really crazy, we'll be killed before we can find them!" the soldier objected. The last time he saw Lin Qiu, Lin Qiu destroyed half of the palace with one move, that area had already penetrated deep into the royal city, and it was full of assassins under the night, and he would definitely not go back.

"Take us with you, or we'll expose you as a deserter!"

The soldier's face changed, and there was a hint of gloom in his eyes.

"You forced me!"

These are the only two people who know about his escape, and now is an extraordinary time, as long as he can live......

The soldier's sword, which he thought was without warning, was blocked by Julius, who was beside Susan, and only then did he notice the two long swords pinned to Julius' side. He gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength to feed, only to find that his sword could not move forward in the slightest.

"First, as a soldier, you are never allowed to be a deserter on the battlefield; second, as a knight, you must not shoot at ordinary people; third, as a man, you must not attack a weak woman, you kid actually violated these three iron laws!"

Even Susan was amazed by Julius's momentum, which was different from his previous appearance, and his eyes were sharp at the moment, so that Susan couldn't help but think of another identity of Julius that had been overlooked.

One of only four captains in the kingdom of Talen - he now looks like he is teaching his men who have attempted to escape.

With a movement of his wrist, Julius raised the sword in the soldier's hand into the air, and when the soldier was distracted, Julius swept his leg and knocked the opponent to the ground, and the blade quickly hit the opponent's throat.

"By the way, I will tell you another feeling after I came to the imperial capital, don't offend the doctor at any time...... Now you have only one choice, take us to Tyr, or be executed by me as a deserter!"
