The fire cave under the church was not excavated by the people who wanted to assassinate the king in just a few days, it could not be, it was originally under the church, and many of the nobles in Dunkirk and nearby were concocted and hung here by the priests, this tradition has lasted for hundreds of years, no one knows how it began, but as time passed, the bones accumulated, the underground mausoleum became deeper and wider, and finally the entire nave was approximately suspended in the air.

The reason for this detailed explanation is to tell you that this fire cave is nearly nine meters above the ground, that is, it is impossible to jump or climb up, and the few soldiers who were lucky enough not to fall into the fire cave and Dalamiz desperately tried to find water or ladders, but in order to accommodate enough people, there were not even benches here, Dalamiz looked around anxiously, and finally his eyes fell on the altar— The walls of the semi-dome of St. Martin's Cathedral are traditionally hung from a huge wooden cross on which Jesus was hung with his twisted body and his compassionate eyes on the flames and the unfortunate victims.

Dalamiz made a surprising act, he drew a cross on his chest, and then muttered two words similar to forgiveness in his mouth, and pushed the sacristy under the cross, and then shook the cross with enough height for two people, and the soldiers below thought he was crazy at first, but then two or three bold men climbed up on the sacristy and pushed the cross with him, and some even drew their long swords and pried the nails for fixation, as if some priests were condemning their blasphemous, but Dalamiz didn't care。

When Louis fell, because there was a kneeling stool and velvet feather cushion below his knees, he was not hurt in any way, and he quickly covered his face with his scarf, and lowered his body, the smoke was not so poisonous to him, but the increasingly hot and thin air showed that fate had given him little time, and the young king almost frantically pulled a corpse out of the alcove—there was still some cold rancid smell left here—and he dragged Monsieur Bishop to his side, and Monsieur Bishop groaned and woke up.

"Am I going to hell?" was the first sentence of Mr. Bishop, and then his gaze immediately sharpened, indicating that he had recovered from his momentary confusion, and he propped himself up, and there was a violent cough, and the king put his arms on his shoulders from behind, and felt that his body under his fingers was almost no different from those bones that had been stored for hundreds of years.

Mr. Bishop's first thought was of the king, and he eagerly searched among those who had fallen, the king's costume was particularly magnificent, but he could not find it, until he heard a familiar voice behind him: "Mr. Bishop?"

Mazaran immediately took the hand that rested on his shoulder.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard a shout of joy, and then Mr. Bishop saw the Son Jesus coming down to them from the sea of fire.

Not the true Son, of course, but since Jesus had given his life for the world and had his blood and flesh for the sacrament, we should not care too much about whether the old man would be willing to use his oak body to save his bishop and the king, but to the surprise of Mr. Bishop, the king put him on his shoulders and pushed him upward—this was not the time to hesitate, and Mr. Bishop quickly climbed up with the agility of a sixty-year-old man who should not have been, and then the king, who grasped and stepped on the feet of the Son, The loincloth and chest climbed up, and a pair of strong hands immediately caught him.

Louis recognized that this was the musketeer Dalamiz, who had been stripped of his position not long ago, and in fact he was only used by the king to set an example for the monkeys, after all, although these musketeers were loyal, their discipline was really indescribable, but he didn't expect this young man to show superhuman calmness and determination at such a critical moment- The others would not have been willing to leave the king if they had pulled him out of danger, but Dalamiz immediately ran to the rescue of the people in the fire cave with the other soldiers, and when he saw Viscount Tirrene and Sebastien Vauban crawling out of the fire cave intact, the king had decided to write Dalamiz's name in the pamphlet.

There were not many people who were rescued, and people at this time did not know that when the fire started, the smoke was the biggest killer, and they ran around in vain, not only consuming their strength in vain, but also inhaling a lot of poisonous smoke, and after falling down, they could never get up again- Louis couldn't help but tremble with anger when he saw that only fourteen or fifteen of the twenty-four soldiers were still around, he was not a man who liked to use torture, even those traitors, he would only let them spend their lives on the gallows or guillotine, but he swore that all those who were concerned about it would have to be punished with the harshest punishment before they were allowed to die!

At this time, only a loud noise was heard, the door of the church swung inward, and a huge battering ram appeared in front of everyone, and then with the influx of a large amount of fresh air, the flames suddenly rose, but at this time the people who were hiding in the side porch no longer had to worry about their lives, but the people who remained in the fire cave were afraid that there would be no way to live, and the cross also burned, and the tongue of fire engulfed the holy Christ.

Louis took Monsieur Bishop in his arms and ran out of the church surrounded by survivors, outside was his army, the familiar bright red shoulder straps reassured the king, he turned to look at the church, fire and black smoke were pouring out of the shattered windows and doors, and in the thick black shadows of the flames, something seemed to be twisting...... The monk beside the king, chanting the name of the saint, swung his scythe and greeted him, and in the burst of sparks, a charred arm fell to the ground.

The other monk was also confronted by another strange black shadow, which lurked among the soldiers, but he still discovered it, and the desecration of the destruction of the church filled the pious man's heart, and when he found that the black shadow quickly shrank and fell back to the ground, as if to flee, he subconsciously took a step forward, but only this step he heard a miserable cry from Bishop Mazarin.

He spun around and saw the king lying to the ground, blood spreading rapidly from his cobalt blue velvet coat.

Mary jumped up from the crystal ball, not caring about the black silk cloth covering the cherished crystal ball, she rushed all the way to the queen mother's bedroom, the queen mother's maid did not want to report, but Mary's expression was too terrible, her eyes were round and wide, but her pupils were shrunk to the minimum, her curly hair was wet with sweat as if she had just left the bathroom, and her thin clothes were clinging to her body.

She said that she wanted to see the Queen Mother - when there was something urgent related to the king, her upper and lower teeth were constantly chattering, and when the Queen Mother saw her like this, without a trace of hesitation, she waved away the maids beside her according to Mary's request, she used to like Mary, but this was before Mary showed her ambition for the king, the Queen Mother could allow and even encourage the king to seek love, but marriage was a state affair, and no favoritism was allowed- It's just that she also knows very well that the king may just like and appreciate Mary, but Mary loves her eldest son to the letter, so when she hears about the king......

Mary took the Queen Mother's hand and put a salt sniffer in her hand, and the Queen Mother immediately raised her hand and sniffed viciously, "Okay, you can say it." ”

"The king was assassinated. Mary said succinctly.

"Hurt?"

"I'm not sure, but ...... But it was the hand of a wizard. Mary said, "I can see it." "It's a mix of spell and puppet.

The Queen Mother's hand almost smashed the glass bottle in her hand: "......" She didn't dare to ask Mary if she saw that the king had ...... Then the noble lady found it difficult to make a sound: "So," she tried several times before she could speak, "what do you want me to do?"

"I'm leaving the court. Marie said, "Take the Vesalius Imperial Physician with you, and some herbs." ”

"I will send musketeers to escort you, and new horses will be waiting for you at each inn. The Queen Mother said as she pulled out a blank permit.

Marie quickly bowed her knees to the Queen Mother, and then walked briskly out of the Queen Mother's room, and when she returned to the room, Varro Vesalius had arrived, carrying a heavy box, and Marie opened a box that only she could open, and put into a bag everything she thought she needed, and as the Queen Mother said, when they left the Louvre half an hour later, there was already a carriage waiting for them, with twelve musketeers beside it, and along the way there were magistrates or lords ready to meet all their requests.

At dusk the carriages departed Paris, and at night they were already at Versailles, and the people of the inn swore that they had seen a carriage driven by a ghost, for it was as fast as a storm, and the sound of the horses' hooves was as soft as a feather falling, and the carriage was quickly replaced with new horses, and as soon as the original horses were taken off their bridles, they fell to the ground, bleeding from their mouths and noses, and so did the musketeers' horses, who were full of pity in their hearts, but also knew that it was not the time to be stingy, and they immediately jumped on their new mounts, and galloped again。

Vesalius watched as Marie grabbed a handful of shiny powder from her pocket and threw it into the air, causing the horses to suck it in, and they immediately ran like crazy.

"Do you think we'll be in time?" asked Vesalius.

"You should pray to Merlin, we're in time. Mary said coldly, "Without the protection of the king, you are nothing, you will be expelled from the court, and the monks of the Inquisition and the wizards of the Mancini family will find you...... Even if you die, you may not be able to see your wife and daughter again. ”

Vesalius sighed and stopped talking, instead turning his head to look out the window.

The twelve musketeers that the Queen Mother had prepared for Marie were not superfluous, the King had too many enemies, some were aware of what was happening in Dunkirk, and some were happy to see any of the Queen Mother's plans thwarted, so Marie's journey was not peaceful, and when there were still twenty fats from Dunkirk, they were surrounded by a group of enemies, but these people were just bandits, and some even had clubs, and it was obvious that they were only hired to obstruct Marie, and on the road ahead, they had at least three or four big trees pulled by them, and even if they were dispersed, Marie and the others needed to move the big trees before they could move on。

Mary only glanced at them and then opened the car door, "Can you kill them? all, every one?"

This question made the captain of the musketeer hesitate slightly, he didn't understand it a little, but the Queen Mother had said before that she would obey Miss Mary as she did, so he looked at the people and nodded, "Yes." He said, so Marie turned and shouted into the carriage, and the Vesari Medic jumped down with Marie's bag and his own box, and then Marie pulled two brooms into the bag, and the musketeer couldn't help but carefully estimate the size of the bag - it really didn't look like it could fit two brooms, Marie gave it to the Vesari Medic, and then snapped open her skirt, revealing her pants underneath, rolled over and rode on the broomstick, and suddenly shot away like a lit firework.

Doctor Vesalius moved more slowly, perhaps because he had to carry a box and a bag, but as soon as he got on his broomstick, he disappeared from view in an instant.

"Oh God. One of the musketeers said, drawing a cross on his chest, and it was indeed rumored that Miss Mary was a witch, but seriously, except for the musketeers who had met the werewolves with the king, they only thought it was pure women's jealousy—"well," said the captain of the musketeers, "we must kill everyone here." ”

So the strong warriors pounced on the wretched fools, who might have taken a few louis, or even a few silver ecu, but having seen what they ought not to see, it was only time to send them to God—let them accuse him of the abominable witch!

————

The night breeze was cold in the sky, but Marie's heart was burning, she held the broom tightly, as if she was holding Louie's life, she prayed in her heart to God, to Merlin, or any god in the underworld, even if it was the devil, as long as she could ensure that Louis was safe, she was willing to die, yes, she was willing to exchange her life for Louis's.

The speed of the broom may be a little slower than that of the carriage, but under the urging of Mary, the excessive magic power almost turned it into a shooting star, and the horses ran with all their potential under the influence of the potion, while the broom would disintegrate due to the extreme magic force, and in order to avoid the eyes of humans, they flew above the clouds, and Vesalius was terrified, but he did not dare to delay in the slightest - after all, Mary was right, without a king, he was a lost dog.
