Chapter 61: The Landless Queen, the Bloody Mercenary (Part I)

As soon as the blood-red monster who called himself Lilaya Recoba spoke, Merlin Avery realized that things were more complicated than he had imagined.

Many good pharmacists will have one or two different methods when mixing potions, and Avery's concoction techniques are derived from the lost ancient civilizations, especially concentrated potions, except for the capital of wisdom may be able to appear, in Coventry or even the entire empire, it is impossible to encounter similar things.

The blood-red monster had an imperceptible aura of concentrated potions, and Avery was completely sure that it was the concentrated antidote he had specially concocted for Mrs. Veronica Boston, and it had consumed a full ten mentor-level antidotes, and he couldn't be mistaken.

However, the blood-red monster claims to be the true owner of Coventry, Queen Lilaya Recoba, which is incomprehensible. Could it be that Madame Veronica is behind all this turmoil and destruction?

Compared to the Thorn Flower Family, the Boston family has a much longer history and is much more powerful. The head of the family is known as the Duke of Steel, the Marshal of the Empire, the leader of one of the four knights of the Empire, and an out-and-out Grand Duke of real power.

Of course, the marriage of the two families had its purpose, and the Duke of Steel supported Thorn Flower to achieve formal independence in the western frontier of the empire, precisely to provide public opinion support for the Boston family to control the alliance of southwestern city-states. His daughter should not have betrayed, because taking Coventry would have no interest in the Iron Duke.

A loud crash came from outside the window, breaking the stalemate. Several windows burst one after another, and shards of glass splattered everywhere like colorful crystal pins. The blood-red monster suddenly took a step forward, then spun around with lightning speed. Its hands crossed above its head, its wrist muscles bulging suddenly, just in time to parry a vicious slash from the sky.

The black greatsword and the blood-red monster's wrists clashed violently, making an eerie sound like the howl of a dying beast, followed by the happy laughter of the Blackwing Reaper. The blood-red monster is infinitely powerful, and its muscles and bones are as hard as steel, but after all, it is not real steel, and after Gana Enlais has a flying wing battle armor, his actual combat ability is infinitely close to that of a real grandmaster powerhouse.

The blood-red monster blocked the first sword, dodging the second and third, but Gana Enlais became more and more courageous, and one sword was followed by another. The fourth sword made a cut in the side of the blood-red monster, causing it to pause.

The black greatsword of Gana Enlais is part of the winged warframe, and it is extremely sharp, and it can be said that it is effortless to cut the alloy barrel of the air rifle. The claws of the blood-red monster could tear through the heavy armor of the Guardian Knight, but it could not leave even a single scratch on the black greatsword, but gradually cracked under the blow of the blade.

Gana Enlais seized the opportunity to mercilessly slash continuously, a terrible roar came from the blood-red monster's gaping mouth, and under the sharp blade of the black giant sword, its defenses were finally crushed, and two bloody severed arms fell to the ground one after another.

It looked like victory was in sight, but from another angle, a huge bulge bulged out of the back of the blood-red monster's body, as if something was struggling to break through. Then the bulge broke, and the stinking blood splattered in all directions, causing Merlin Avery to frown and quickly retreat.

Gana Enlais didn't care if the splattered blood was poisonous or not, and the Blackwing Reaper was always in battle. She just turned her sword to block the blood that flew towards her face, and her body slammed into the blood-red monster like a stone thrown by a catapult.

In the next moment, two dazzling green rays of light crossed behind the blood-red monster's body, and Cana Enlais let out a cry of surprise, and the black greatsword turned from attack to defense, blocking the incoming twin swords less than ten centimeters in front of his throat. The sound of blades rubbing against each other was sharp and harsh.

At the moment when the two emerald green stabbing swords clashed with the black giant sword, Cana Enlais frowned slightly, raised his hands vigorously, and swung the two stabbing swords, and then swung a sword light from the bottom to the top.

Emerging from the blood-red monster's body was an extremely slender woman, wearing a special armor that was as light and silky as silk, but shimmering with a metallic luster, and a silver-plated mask as smooth as a mirror, but it could not completely hide the unique temperament of the elves.

The black greatsword of Gana Enlais swept over like a wild tropical storm, with an invincible and terrifying aura, as if the slightest touch could shatter the female elf. However, only if the Blackwing Reaper can catch up with her, the female elf's movements don't look dazzlingly fast, but every jump, spin, counterattack, and sliding step is like a graceful dance, and none of the black greatsword can touch the female elf's body, but there are a few scratches on the flying wing armor of Cana Enlais.

"It's the Elven Dancer......" Merlin Avery couldn't help but feel a heaviness in his heart as he found the name of this profession that had been extinct for hundreds of years, "Cana Enlais," he said suddenly, "don't get entangled with the Elven Dancers, what they are best at is hand-to-hand combat." ”

The Blackwing Reaper let out a disgruntled snort, but he still followed Avery advice, and the black greatsword made two short stabs in succession, followed by a horizontal slash, forcing the female elf to step back and then take the opportunity to join Avery.

Fierce clanging sounds rang out from outside the door, and several black-masked assassins retreated into the banquet hall in disarray, more or less scars from the melting of the metal. Victor's leader and four mentor-level scavengers from the City of Wisdom arrived, followed by more than a dozen core members of the Thorns.

Seeing that Avery was safe and sound, and Baron Edelman was lying in a pool of blood, the Thorn of Thorns members immediately became vigilant, not only for the masked assassin who clearly belonged to the enemy, but also for the leader of Victor and others.

"There's an attack here?, Your Excellency Archon?" one of the Thorns of Thorns' mentor-level member snapped, the repulsive shield unfolded in full force causing translucent ripples around his body.

"Among the guests were assassins capable of transforming into blood-red monsters, the Baroness was poisoned and died, and the Archon was mortally wounded. The leader of the knights replied in a deep voice, "That female elf calls herself Lilaya Recoba, the leader of the masked assassins!"

The elf laughed, her voice crisp and pleasant, as if she was in a very happy mood, "You should call me Lyraya, Her Majesty Queen Recoba, Tin Can, for the sake of your loyalty, I give you the opportunity to pay allegiance to the true master of Coventry." ”

Before the leader of the Guardian Knights could reply, a voice suddenly sounded among the members of the Thorn of Thorns, "Lady Lilaya, gods, it is really you, have you not been harmed by those desert barbarians?"

The voice was old and trembling, with incredible joy and shock. Everyone turned around in amazement to see Elder Kebagu, one of the most famous Nineteen Heroes of the Thorn Flower Family and Baron Edelman's unpopular audience, holding his arms high above his head, tears streaming down his wrinkled cheeks.

"Of course I'm not going to die, because you're still alive. When the female elf called out the name, her tone was extremely cold, as if there was an indescribable hatred hidden in it, "You must be disappointed to see that I am safe and sound, right? ”

"How so? "You are the last descendant of the Rekoba family, and the noble blood of King Recobar runs through your veins, and I am happier than ever to see that you are safe and sound, and I can thank the gods of heaven for this." ”

"I wounded the ruler of the Thornflower family, and killed a rather innocent woman, Kebagu, don't you want to avenge His Excellency the Archon and his wife?" the female elf blinked, and the blood-stained silver-plated mask faintly exuded an aura of strange charm.

"It's a sad event, but it's not a blood feud. The Thornflower family is not the only candidate for power, and if Baron Edelman does not have the power to hold the throne, then we will elect a new one. Elder Kebagu replied in a relaxed tone, "Lady Liraya, there is nothing that cannot be discussed as long as you are willing to stop. ”

Before the elder Kebagu's words fell, there was a cacophony of opposition, especially the members of the Young Zhuang faction who were single-handedly promoted and supported by Baron Edelman, and they glared at the old man angrily.

Of all the opposition, the voice of the Guardian Knight Leader was particularly loud. "Elder Kebagu, please be cautious when expressing your opinions!Master Iron is healing the wounds of His Excellency the Archon, and he will heal soon, you have no right to speak in the name of the Thorn Flower Family!"

Elder Kebagu's face sank, and he looked a little distraught. "You don't know anything at all...... She said that she was the true master of the city-state of Coventry, and in a sense, she was not wrong at all!"

A young member of the Thorn of Thorns immediately sneered, "Elder Kebagu, I'm afraid you're a little old and confused. Coventry has been ruled by the Thornflower family for hundreds of years! even a half-elf is far older than a pure-blooded human, so he can't be called the true master of the city-state of Coventry, right?"

"The Thornflower did rule the city-state of Coventry for hundreds of years, but that was with the secret help of the Recoba family. Every ruler of the Thorn Flower family would marry a noble lady of the Recoba family as his wife, but Baron Edelman did not do it, and he married the eldest daughter of the patriarch of the Boston family, which seemed like a good thing, but it violated the blood covenant made by the ancestors!"
