Chapter 11: Helius
"Mom......" Qiming was surprised. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The assassin was Martha.
She is not masked like in the story, and wears the same clothes as the servants of Eko Castle. The needle-thin weapon in his hand was devoid of light. A thin sword, the sword is a sign of roundness, like a wheel and like a very small shield.
She flipped back out of the grip of the subsidence, and her tumbling movement blocked Qiming behind her, facing Viscount Nissan.
"Oh, I didn't need to invite the guests to arrive, what a surprise. Nissan wasn't too surprised, and didn't seem to care about the previous attack.
"Hello, Viscount Nissan. I took the liberty of coming to the castle and disturbed it. ”
Nissan looked at the weapon in Martha's hand with interest and said, "Sink the Female Guard...... From the Sunken Acropolis?"
Martha said, "I'm sorry for the offense. You have nothing to do with this matter, please let us go. ”
"Oh, there are people looking for you, why you are hiding in Thorn Hill? I don't know if those people are trying to keep it secret or to kill their tongues. ”
Martha didn't dare to let her guard down and stared at Nissan. Again, none of this has anything to do with you. ”
"No, no, no...... It's true that the grudge has nothing to do with me, but there is something more amazing about this kid, and you won't know more. What do you want to tell me?"
She lurks in the castle, but she doesn't know anything about the pictures.
"About the Purple Moon?" Nissan prompted. Martha's eyes couldn't escape his eyes, and she knew in her heart that the secret really came from Apollo.
Martha gritted her teeth and said, "We don't know the secret about Ziyue, Qiming's identity is very unusual, I hope you can make the right choice." There will be a great reward. ”
"The Archduke of the Fallen...... What a reverent title. Does he have anything to do with this kid who has had his blood stripped of him?"
Martha was silent.
Grand Duke, there are only two in the Tielan Divine Kingdom, and their castle is the same size as the capital of Tielan, because their ancestors are members of the brotherhood who have fought together.
Nissan suddenly patted his forehead and laughed. From giggling to laughing.
"Unexpectedly, it was a scandal that the Helius family had degenerated to the point of using the thread. If the painful process is abandoned, the person will be as fragile as the flowers in the greenhouse. I wonder what the same old family would think? haha......"
"When the old man wakes up, all the shame will be washed away!" said Martha.
Nissan quickly stopped laughing, nodded and said, "I am a nobleman and know a lot of news. A year ago, someone attacked the Sunken Acropolis, and the Tsushoma appeared. I guess that's what you've been expecting. Maybe the team looking for you is on the way, happy?"
Martha rarely shows her emotions, and her face is full of joy and pride at the moment. Qiming felt that that person had brought endless confidence to his mother.
"Unfortunately, I can't let you go. ”
"Are you not afraid of the wrath of the Grand Duke? "Martha toughened up, as if the viscount was just a small character. Her skills lie in patience and hiding, and she can't think of anything deeper.
"It's because of fear that I can't let you go. I was still wondering why he had killed so many people when he woke up, and he didn't want the secret to be exposed. Your fate is also uncertain, and if the child who takes the bloodline does not accomplish something, it will eventually be wiped out. ”
"No, he's the son of the Grand Duke!"
Nissan was stunned, and after he calmed down, his expression was hideous, and his mouth was full of teeth.
"Don't lie to me, he is more than three hundred years old, and he won't have a son, unless he ...... You can die!"
Nissan uttered a mysterious attack with a thought in his mouth. He thought of a possibility, and the secret of this matter, which was more than enlightenment, must not be exposed.
Martha didn't dare to dodge, and behind her was Qiming. Although seven years is not long, it has precipitated many feelings. Watching a little bit grow into a teenager, he has transformed under his own care, and he has an inseparable love. Raising is a task, but after a long time, feelings are heavier than the task.
She raised the sinking thorn gold in her hand and struck a sharp blow to protect her son behind her.
Mysterious forces begin to erode the weapon, and powder pours down. Then there are Martha's hands, forearms, and crooked arms......
Qiming watched the tragedy happen, but could not do anything about it.
"Mom!"
A procession marched on the edge of Sami territory, and although there were only fifty people, it still exuded an astonishing momentum. The black horses were surprisingly strong, their hooves leaving huge hoof prints on the ground, and small puddles of water were trampled on the black mud, leaving flakes on the fur.
No one cares about the mud, and rushing is probably all there is to the walker. They wore black cloaks with wide hoods, and their faces were hidden in the shadows. Occasionally, he shows his face due to the wind, and he is serious and nervous.
The residents along the road hid in their houses, blowing out the oil lamps and not daring to make the slightest sound, and only after they passed by did they look tremblingly and discuss in low voices.
The most important reason is that these horses are horned, which is an important feature that distinguishes war horses from horses.
It was already late at night, and the sound of the road startled the crows flying in the woods, and the people of the castle in the distance stood in the watchtower, looking at the cursed bird that was hovering, and knew that someone was approaching. The guards immediately reported to their superiors.
The halls of the castle are dark, and the people follow the rules of nature, working during the day and resting at night. Even if there is an evening party, it will end quickly in the evening, or in the evening when the light of the stars and moon shines. Lighting seriously affects the holding of similar events, and the use of precious light wax is very extravagant.
Sammy is just a county, and although it produces black gold rock, the big head will be taken away. Lighting up the hall consumes thousands of candles overnight, and I believe only a madman would do that. Lighting with something else?Cheap fruit oil can turn an entire hall into a kitchen, and the white stone pillars and ceiling will soon be filled with oil scents and stains.
At this time, there were more than a dozen people gathered in the small castle owner's rest room in the hall on the second floor. They had very different expressions on their faces, some secretly excited, some preoccupied.
"Apollo M. D, the bounties of the three kingdoms add up to 300 million gold horns, and this opportunity cannot be missed. Father, that's a treasure worthy of a dragon!" A young man apparently had no other worries, just a bounty.
"How many warriors have turned into a pile of dragon dung. People only see the glory in front of the dragon slayer, but they don't see the tears behind them!" Lord Sammy spoke a little rudely. His brown beard flickered under the flames. Although he is 60 years old, the shiny hair indicates that he is very healthy.
Mayor Thornhill with a two-puff of beard on his mouth: "Lord Earl, I have personally observed him, and he does not look as fierce as the legend says. ”
There were Earl Somer, his son Sartin, the lord of the city, a knight, a steward, and the mayor and owner of the Black Gold Mine.
"I wanted a docile kitten before the tiger attacked, but when it bared its fangs, the time of death would come!" said the old butler to the lord's sons, retorting the mayor's remarks by the way.
The lord's sons were taught on the surface, but their eyes were still different.
"What does the bounty mean? The Pearl Coast is the richest country in the Southern Continent, and they don't earn more than 50 million gold horns a year. ”
"Can't get the bounty?" the lord's son was surprised.
"In other words, the three kingdoms believe that no one will get the bounty...... What is the issuance of a wanted warrant? This is the practice of the ancient aristocracy. Ridiculously declared, I have gold coins that can buy your life!"
"What did he do?" the city lord was interested.
"Cloud Owl has brought news that this man named Apollo has attacked the headquarters of the Bank of Pearl Coast, the deep well fortress of Shizawa, and the fallen acropolis of Tielan......"
Everyone was stunned, this action can be described as bold.
"He's the only one, but the people in the Dragon's Rest Land did it, and it's the Divine Slave Camp. ”
Summerer said: "It's not one or two things about the top bag of Dragon's Breath, always carrying the black cauldron for others. I have special channels to learn part of the truth. One person ......"
Sardin said: "What is the use of issuing a bounty when you know you can't deal with it?"
Summerle looked around and summoned the guards to take the mayor of Thornhill and the mine owner out. At the same time, he commanded: "The two of them are executed, and the people of the sinking line cannot fight the idea of slaves." ”
The guard bowed down to accept the order, and Summerer continued: "This is a sign, if the person on the bounty order is still not caught in a year, some strong man will intervene and force him to sign something. ”
Someone else wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Summer. "Someone will come tonight and need to receive them. ”
The sound of the announcement came, and the crows circled dozens of miles away, and the count ordered to prepare, and a few people around him rode horses to the gate of the castle.
The ground shook for a short time, and the spire of the watchtower visibly shook, and the soldiers on duty held their weapons in fear and prayed that they would not collapse.
The rattling of chains rattled and the hanging door with metal tusks at the bottom was opened, and in the blink of an eye the team came to the gate, where the horses stopped their advance, and the men were silent except for the sound of sniffs and breathing.
The Count stepped forward: "Welcome to Sami Castle, welcome Sammy Sammy!"
Immediately the knight was not polite, looked neatly at the owner of the castle, put his left hand lightly on the edge of the hood and stroked, and then looked ahead, apparently as a matter of etiquette. Summer's hand on his chest bowed slightly.
They dismounted through the gate and were led into the castle. No one spoke during the process, and the face was always hidden in the hood, which was extremely mysterious.
Bright candles were lit in the living room, and people saw the true faces. Sammer's son, Sardin, opened his mouth wide, and the knight leader turned out to be a woman.
The heroic posture is cool, and the voice is crisp and has a metallic temperament.
She has a prominent logo on her chest, with a black background trimmed with gold. A monster with a claw outstretched, bright and eerie eyes, pointed ears. If Qiming is here, he can find his prototype in the blue eye, a black beckoning cat.
"Baron Summer, Shatterstar Helius thank you for your hospitality, is Apollo really here?"
"Yes," Summerer said.
