Chapter 61: Assassination
In the end, it was West who was a chess player, and he fought hard to beat Harry's sword, or pierced Harry's neck with the dagger in his hand, looking at Harry who also covered his throat and fell to the ground, West completely relaxed, this battle is too dangerous!
Looking at the corpses of different shapes that fell to the ground, West breathed a tired sigh of relief and smiled proudly. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info finally survived, and it was not in vain that he had painstakingly laid out the layout for so long.
"Free!!" Thinking of this, West dragged his tired body and turned to face the audience and raised his hands in greeting.
"Oh!!" heard the exclamation of the audience in his ears, and West was secretly wondering. Suddenly, there was a "plop" sound, and West felt a pain in his back, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a sharp spear tip coming out of his body.
"Ho ho!!" West looked at the spear from his chest in disbelief, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was 'ho ho', his hands were tightly grasping the tip of the spear, he was very unwilling to die, but with the loss of blood in his body, West felt that his eyes were getting darker and darker, and his body was becoming more and more weak. Turning around hard, he saw a man with short black hair looking at him and smiling proudly, "Bang" West couldn't hold on anymore, and fell to the ground and didn't move.
After making sure that West was completely dead, the short-haired man picked up a long sword and mended everyone on the ground one by one, even if the corpses were already dead, the short-haired man did not let go, and sure enough, among the thirty-one gladiators in the field, the short-haired man found that two of them were not dead, but they were seriously injured and unable to fight again. The short-haired man decisively ended the lives of the two with the long sword in his hand before turning to look at the victory platform, deaf to the cheers and boos behind him.
The short-haired man was the one, the first gladiator who was knocked out from behind by Darron, and then his eyes rolled, and he simply fell to the ground, and he was tricked to death, in such a tense situation in the arena, no one had the time to tell whether he was really dead or faked, and as a result, he actually deceived everyone in the gladiatorial arena, and even a scheming person like West finally had to end up with hatred.
"What's your name, where are you from?" said Grand Duke Reis, smiling at the 'lucky man' in front of him.
"Stelmar, I'...... I'm a slave to Viscount Grant's house!!" replied the man with short black hair respectfully, even with a hint of tremor in his tone because of his nervousness.
"Viscount Grant?Grant Faire of the province of Raji?" After saying that, the Grand Duke of Lacey turned his head and found Viscount Grant who was triumphant in the crowd, glanced at him, and nodded.
"Oh!!
"He will be set free in the presence of my Les Cuomo!!"
"Sturmar!!"
"Sturmar!!" At this time, the sky above Victory Square kept echoing the name of Stelmar, and the atmosphere was extremely warm. However, it was obviously the first time for Sturmar to experience such a scene, and he was somewhat helpless to let Archduke Reis raise his arms, and his face was flushed and he kept waving his hands to the surrounding audience.
At this time, a man dressed in the costume of a waiter, holding a silver tray of exquisite workmanship, came to the Grand Duke of Reis politely.
"Stermar, in the presence of all the nobles, I, Lacey Como, declare that from now on you will be free again, and you will enjoy all the rights of the people of the Duchy of Como!!" said Archduke Les picked up a delicate silver medal from the tray of the attendant beside him, and stepped forward to bring it to Stermar!
"I'll name this medal the 'Medal of Freedom'!!" After saying that, Grand Duke Lacey raised the badge in his hand, turned to show it to the nobles behind him, and then turned to bring it for Sturmar.
Suddenly, I saw Sturmar, who was still excited, with a flushed face, his face turned pale, and a trace of cold killing intent flashed in his eyes, looking at Grand Duke Lacey.
"Ah!!" In the exclamation of everyone, Stermar shook his wrist, and a conical dagger made of extremely thin slid from his sleeve to his hand, and the dagger brought a blue cold light, obviously quenched with poison, and stabbed straight into the back of the heart of Grand Duke Reis, so fast that for a moment everyone could only watch, helpless.
This rabbit rose and fell, it happened too quickly, everyone didn't have time to react, and the Grand Duke of Reis was already in danger, seeing that the Grand Duke of Reis was about to be stabbed to death, and the reactions of the nobles behind him were also very different.
Marquis Ness, Earl Adrian and General Eton beside him were all happy, while Viscount Grant, the master of Sturmar, looked at all this with his mouth wide open and his face was miserable, looking at all this in disbelief. Adeline Cuomo, Marquis of Luca, was surprised, but there was still a lot of schadenfreude in his eyes. As for General Depp and Marquis Craven, who were closest to Archduke Lacey, their faces changed dramatically and they called out loudly to the guards, but there was nothing they could do for a while.
As for some of the other nobles, they also had different faces, those who stood on the side of the Grand Duke of Reis looked horrified, and those who stood on the side of the Grand Duke of Ness or who were friendly with the Marquis of Luca had a strange face, looking coldly and without words, and of course, there were some guests who had no interests in these parties, such as the Duchy of Roentgen and the Duchy of Bauhinia, they were very surprised and couldn't believe that they could see such a scene.
Looking at the dagger stabbing in front of him, Grand Duke Reis's face changed greatly, and at such a close distance, Grand Duke Reis could even see the hideous expression on the face of Stemar on the other side. Grand Duke Reis never imagined that one day he would be so close to death. The dagger in front of him was about to pierce his heart, and Grand Duke Reis could almost smell the pungent smell emanating from the dagger.
"Bang!!" said that it was too late, and then quickly, I saw a ghostly figure, suddenly appeared on the side of Grand Duke Reis, knocked Sturmar away with one punch, fell to the ground and coughed up blood, and it was difficult to get up for a while.
Just when the ghostly figure suddenly appeared and punched, behind the Grand Duke of Reis, a burly figure also suddenly pushed away the people in front of him, and rushed towards the Grand Duke of Reis, the burly figure was also extremely fast, and a dodge had already appeared behind the Grand Duke of Reis, and the four fingers of his right hand were pointed into a sword, and he slammed down towards the back of the Grand Duke of Reis. This made the ghostly figure before angry, obviously not expecting that there would be a yellow finch in the back, the timing of the opponent's choice was too tricky, and at the moment when he punched, it was too late to withdraw to the rescue.
Seeing that Grand Duke Reis was about to be killed by the figure behind him, everyone didn't react to the scene in front of them at all, and watched in horror as the figure stabbed its four fingers like a sword into Grand Duke Reis.
"Smack!!" Between the lightning and flint, a tall and thin figure silently appeared behind the Grand Duke of Reis, and gently slapped a palm, and the latter came first, steadily blocking the fatal blow that was inserted into the Grand Duke of Reis. The tall and thin figure then slowly pushed out a palm, but it easily knocked the burly figure directly away, and flew under the platform with a mouth full of blood.
"It's Knight Ivan and Knight Mino!!" everyone who reacted said happily and loudly, already recognizing the identities of the two figures that suddenly appeared at the critical moment.
Just when some of the nobles on the stage were rejoicing that Grand Duke Reis had successfully escaped, Lin Meng was staggering up from the ground, feeling all the pain all over his body.
"Bah!!" Lin Meng spit out all the blood foam in his mouth, and only then did he feel a little better. Lin Meng didn't remember what happened at all, it was like he had slept for a while, and when he woke up, he found himself lying on the ground with serious injuries.
"Huh!!" The gray-haired knight on the stage, known as Mino, was very surprised to see Lin Meng, who had only spit out a few mouthfuls of blood and staggered up!
"Hmph!!" At this time, Grand Duke Reis, who was inexplicably frightened by two assassinations in a row, came to his senses, snorted coldly, and glanced at Lin Meng with a gloomy face. He turned his head and looked at the nobles behind him, especially the group around Marquis Nice.
Although Grand Duke Lacey was reminded by Count Sacco in advance, he guessed that there would be some accidents at today's celebration, and he also made thorough preparations, but he never expected it to be so thrilling, if it wasn't for the timely action of the Minoan knight, I am afraid the consequences would be unimaginable. Thinking of this, Grand Duke Reis suddenly felt that his back was cold, and he was already soaked in cold sweat.
Feeling the unbearable on his back, a trace of monstrous anger flashed in the eyes of Grand Duke Lacey, and he stared at Marquis Ness fiercely, under the murderous gaze of Grand Duke Lacey, Earl Adrian and General Eton beside Marquis Ness, all of them changed their faces and did not dare to look at him, Ewing was a look of distraction, as if his mind was not in front of him, only Marquis Ness still looked at Grand Duke Reis with a smile on his face, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a sarcastic look, and the Grand Duke of Reis was stunned for a moment, and there was an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
"Not good!!" Grand Duke Reis was suddenly shocked, and heard the Ivan knight and the Mino knight next to him shout angrily at the same time, "Thief dare!!", before Grand Duke Reis had time to turn around, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back, as if something in his body was disappearing rapidly, and then there was an exclamation from everyone in his ears, and Grand Duke Reis only felt that his eyes were black and he didn't know anything.
When Lin Meng was still in a daze below, the situation on the stage changed dramatically, and after seeing that the attention of Knight Ivan and Knight Mino, after being attracted by Lin Meng and Sturmar, the waiter standing behind Grand Duke Reis, with a flip of his wrist, pulled out a sharp dagger directly from under the delicate tray, and stabbed it fiercely into the back of Grand Duke Reis, up to the hilt, so that the people on the platform were unexpected.
In the exclamation of everyone, as soon as the Grand Duke of Reis weakened, he fell to the ground, his death was uncertain, and there was a great chaos on the stage.
