Chapter Eighty-Nine: Infamy
The moon had climbed high into the sky, and the whole world had darkened, but the smell of blood filled the air, and gusts of wind seemed to tell of sorrow and unwillingness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It should have been an instinctive reaction, when approaching Moonlight Town, Xiaohu's mood couldn't help but become heavy, and even his speed slowed down.
There was no sound, no lights, everything seemed dead. The darkness couldn't stop Xiaohu's sight, but he didn't want to see it.
I thought that this town did not take it to heart, but it was not until it was destroyed that the pain and reluctance gradually became clear! How could you not care? How could you not be sad? After all, this is a place where you have lived for a few years! After all, there are so many memories here!
Wisdom and emotion always bring too many burdens, but after all, they can't give up, so they can only cry silently and bear silently......
"Dad, Mom, Instructor Lin Feng, Aunt Sally......" Looking at the ruins in front of him, sniffing the blood flying in the evening breeze, Xiaohu was like a lost child, curled up in a corner alone, crying weakly.
The night was so quiet, so quiet that even the sadness came very clearly, but wasn't he a monster? How could he be so fragile that he shed tears that he was accustomed to disdain?
However, the heart really, really hurts......
..................
The night is long, but there is an end. The people of the Imperial City of Bart have started a new day, many buildings can still see Mu Kong's magic image, at the gate of the Royal Academy of Magic, Mu Kong's sculpture stands there quietly, still magnificent.
In the palace, Bart had returned to his former appearance, and even his broken left arm had been reconnected! He was holding a transparent ice crystal, his face was gloomy, and it was conceivable that he was not in a good mood.
"Your Majesty...... There was news from Gallodon's side that a small town had been attacked last night, and no one in the town survived!......" The middle-aged man looked up at Bart's expression and cautiously continued, "Moreover, that town seems to be the hometown of the Marquis of Mukong." ”
Bart hummed lightly, but didn't answer. The first thing he is worried about now is Luo Yi's pursuit! Although he knows that Luo Yi will not come to him for the time being in order to save Mukong, what will happen in the future?
"Damn the Ice Empire!" he was so angry that after fleeing last night, he immediately summoned the Ice Empire and explained his current situation.
However, the Sanctuary from the Ice Empire didn't even give him a straight eye, but just sneered contemptuously, threw him an ice crystal casually, and told him, "When you encounter danger, crush it." ”
Then, he went straight away! He didn't even care about Bart's severed left arm! Fortunately, as a king, he had saved up over the years, and he managed to get his left arm back to its original state!
"Damn! Just use an ice crystal to perfunctory me......" Bart gritted his teeth, how much risk he took to help the Ice Empire kill Mu Yue and Xueyin!
Thinking of the cold light of Luo Yi's dagger and the speed that he couldn't avoid, Bart broke out in a cold sweat behind his back. He had already decided to hide in a few days, even if the Kingdom of Bart was destroyed, he didn't care! After all, his own life was much more important than others.
After this near-death death, Bart finally realizes his weakness. Although he was promoted to the Holy Domain, he was powerless in the face of other Holy Domains, which has to be said to be a great blow to his confidence.
Although Bart also knew that the strength of the opponent he encountered this time was not ordinary, and he was ready to be not an opponent! But he never expected that he would be beaten and not even have a chance to escape!
"Oh yes, and the little tiger is gone!" and the unpleasant news came one after another, making Bart very irritated!
However, he didn't have too much worry about Xiaohu's disappearance. After all, he didn't hurt Xiaohu, and there was already an agreement between the Warcraft Forest and the Human Empire, so they couldn't easily violate each other.
"Hmm...... What did you just say?" Bart reacted suddenly, and Cassie seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
Cassie waited anxiously on the side, and when he heard Bart finally respond, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Moonlight Town has been destroyed, and all the people are dead, that is the hometown of the Marquis of Mu......kong!
Ben wanted to continue, but Bart interrupted his words with his eyes and said, "Send someone to spread the news, just say that Mu Kong has been bewitched by demons in the soul abyss, so his strength has increased greatly and he has won the first place!"
Cassie listened to Bart's words, his legs were weak in fright, and he almost didn't fall, but he was so frightened by Bart's eyes that he didn't dare to say anything.
Bart then muttered, "As for the matter of Moonlight Town, let's just say that! Mu Kong, who was bewitched by demons, can increase his power by absorbing people's souls, so he will go on a killing spree after returning to Moonlight Town!"
Cassie peeked at Bart's face in fear and whispered, "This...... Will someone believe it...... Is it?"
No wonder Cassie suspects that the rumors that Bart asked him to spread are too simple, so simple that even a slightly sane person can see the loopholes in them! If Mu Kong is bewitched by the demons, how can he safely get out of the Wuluo Empire?
Besides, Mu Kong was complacent, even if he needed a soul, it would never be possible to obtain it in this way, he could do it in secret, what Bart said was not even a lie!
Bart smiled dismissively, "You know what! Just do what I say!"
As the king of a country, he has an accurate grasp of people's hearts. There may be some people who can detect the wrongness in the rumors, but they are definitely in the minority!
Most people are blind and ignorant! When the rumors spread, more people will be inclined to obey rather than question, and he can even foresee that within a few days, there will be one version of the story after another of the few words he provided.
At that time, the snowball was getting bigger and bigger, and the cries were getting louder and louder, and even a few people who could distinguish between right and wrong would never be able to dominate the trend of public opinion! On the contrary, they would become heretics.
"Huh...... It seems to be beautiful, sought after and praised, but who knows if there is deep jealousy and unwillingness hidden under these admiration and praise?" Bart dismissed Cassie and looked faintly into the distance.
He seemed to see that it wouldn't be long before Mukong would become the object of everyone's shouting and spitting.
Cassie's heart is fearful, and in the midst of fear there is a hint of perverted pleasure. The reason for the fear was because of Bart's ruthlessness, and he had already guessed something from Bart's orders.
And the pleasure is because a teenager who has just become a hero instantly goes to the abyss! Bart guessed well, praise is always accompanied by deep jealousy and unwillingness, why has he struggled for decades but is not as good as a teenager?
It may be gloomy, but it's not unusual. At least Cassie was dominated by this negativity for a moment. And there will be more people in the future.
Those seemingly bright eyes have long since lost their rationality in ignorance and self-awareness! On the contrary, they have been occupied by the nobility of illusions, and they are even more justified in doing ignorant things.
The sky was like a wash, and the bright sun shone on the bustling imperial city, and a touch of darkness began to spread wantonly in the soft sunlight......
