In February of the 568th year of the Eltino calendar, Reins took the royal capital

Early the morning after Lancelot signed the abdication, the servants who were in charge of serving him in his residence found that they could no longer find the figure of His Royal Highness the former Prince, nor the chief staff who had always been in charge of handling various things, Cang Yuecao, and it seemed that they had left the city overnight, and did not want to add any more shame.

In order to arrange the formalities for the new lord to enter the city during the day, the court sent elders and people's representatives to form a delegation to prepare to submit to the day line Lancelot's abdication and documents recognizing him as the rightful heir to the throne of Reins.

In order to flaunt his open-mindedness, Reins has always had a people's representative who is exclusively consulted by the queen, so that the public will can directly participate in the country's politics, but even so, ordinary commoners are not capable of running for election, and those who can become people's representatives are often some wealthy businessmen and tycoons without aristocratic blood, so as to seek official positions.

The person in charge of leading this delegation was supposed to be the chief elder Bai Dezhao, but he suddenly fell ill last night and temporarily announced to the delegation this morning that he would not come, so he chose another replacement.

During the day, he also changed into a ceremonial dress, and at this most important moment in his life, he showed his royal demeanor, so that all the people of Reins would bow to his generosity.

In order to immortalize the scene of surrender, he also specially consulted with Bai Qi, hoping to use his skills in the primeval magic path to let all the people of Reins witness this great picture. Bai Qi didn't say anything, but according to his request, he set up a broadcast team and set up two hundred and fifty broadcast stations, so that all the major cities of Reyns could see the stereoscopic video broadcast of the surrender ceremony.

Thinking that success was finally in his hands, although Bai Xing was sitting on a horse, he was so happy that he almost danced with his hands.

Although the walls crumbled during the Great Baptism, many people still stood on the top of the city. The representative of Kinoshita handed over the surrender to the conquerors outside the city, which was a scandal that had not even occurred during the Great War of Kyushu, but because it was a civil war, the people did not feel any sense of humiliation, but just watched quietly.

Among the many spectators, there was only one person who stood out in particular, not standing at the head of the city, but sitting alone in the corner of the city wall, carrying a wine bottle in his hand, squinting at the delegation slowly walking out of the city. This head of the Bai family, who is accustomed to being a cat and lingering on the hotel street, rarely appears on such an occasion today, depending on the situation, he just wants to watch quietly, and the helpless and annoying visitors always appear at inappropriate times.

"Brother!"

The only one who can find his traces at this time and boldly come up to speak is naturally only his sister Leya. For Bai Wuji, his sister is not the strange woman named Cangyue Cao, which may be strange to say, but it is a knot that is difficult to untie.

Wearing a cloak to hide her appearance, Xiaocao did not shy away from sitting down next to her brother, took the wine bottle in his hand, and took a big sip like this, when she had not yet ascended the throne, the two siblings often laughed like this, in this world, they are each other's few remaining blood relatives, no matter what the reason, there is no need to make a fuss like enemies meeting.

"My husband is leaving, marry the chicken, and I will leave with him, although it is impossible to say that he will never come back, but there will be a time when he will not appear in Reyns, so ...... It's all up to my brothers. ”

It's not so much a parting commission, but actually a goodbye to my brother before leaving. For the actions of the two brothers, Xiaocao naturally would not think that they were supporting Bai Xing in order to seize the throne of Reins, and the main component should be due to dissatisfaction with his husband, but it is precisely because of this that he has to insist even more, the two brothers have been united, if he is not on his husband's side, then who else will help him?

Bai Wuji didn't say anything about his sister's farewell, he knew his brother's style better than his sister, and he didn't think that his sister could go today.

"Brother, there's one thing I want to know. Xiaocao said: "Big brother was ...... Have you really been to the Witch Palace?"

The so-called witch palace refers to a forbidden place under the grass, a palace dedicated to various dark gods. Reynes's own position is that he should not worship any dark demon god related to evil forces, but the black magic research on the side of the Demon Guild is impossible to completely avoid contact with relevant knowledge, so the two have no choice but to set the Witch Palace as a forbidden place, which is usually managed by the Demon Guild, and no one is allowed to enter without the permission of the queen.

Yesterday, I heard what her husband said, Xiaocao immediately checked the visitor information of the Witch Palace, and sure enough, she found an extremely suspicious sum in it, about 100 years ago, the two brothers came to the Witch Palace one after another, and the purpose was unknown. Usually go to the Witch Palace, just to conclude a contract with the dark gods, prepare to practice black magic, or do some evil sacrifices, I used to because of the taboo of the evil demon qi there and myself conflicted, usually rarely set foot in, only when practicing the Five Extremes Heavenly Style, will visit the Witch Palace.

According to the records, the eldest brother once went there for forty-nine days, such a long time, what else could he do besides practicing black magic?

Xiaocao really didn't know much about this brother, and because of a regrettable incident back then, the brother and sister hardly met after that. In my impression, the prayer tower is the queen's place of prayer, and some monsters have been imprisoned in it before, and they are suppressed with the help of the aura of the queen's prayer, and then the eldest brother doesn't know why, he locked himself in the tower, if it wasn't for his mother and second brother to take the initiative to mention it, he didn't know that there was such a relative.

He didn't know anything about why his eldest brother was so powerful, he was able to break through the heavenly position with his own strength before the Demon Earthquake, except that he knew that he was proficient in the Ancient Demon Dao technique, had the power of the Heavenly Position, and had also practiced the martial arts in the six arts of the Bai family, but he didn't understand the truth of his power. The only guess is that only the Bai family's technical department is really powerful, and can create such an outstanding perfect warrior, with its unique talent, to easily break through these difficulties that ordinary people can't reach.

But because of this, I used to have a latent disgust for him, always feeling that he was just an inhuman creature created by the Ancient Demon Dao, not his blood relative, and even now, that feeling still sometimes surfaces in his chest.

I heard my mother say that the eldest brother once broke through the heavenly position in martial arts after an incident, according to the time of that incident, it coincided with the time when he came to the Wu Palace, in other words, he made a contract with the dark gods to practice some kind of forbidden spell martial arts similar to the Heavenly Demon Gong, so he went one step further and broke through the heavenly position?

It's kind of weird. Although he didn't know that his brother's martial arts had entered the realm at that time, but with the qualifications of a perfect warrior like him, he must have been extremely strong, but he just couldn't break through the heavenly position, but the Bai family's peerless learning itself was already very strong, what reason did he have to learn this kind of demon martial arts again? Could it be that in order to defeat the perverted father as soon as possible and launch a coup d'état, is it that the soldiers are in danger?

I can't figure it out, these so-called warriors are sometimes really difficult to understand......

"Yes, my eldest brother and I have both been in there. What do you want to ask?Did he ever make a pact with the dark gods to practice martial arts?" Bai Wuji smiled, it was a smile full of mockery, his sister was admittedly intelligent, but there were certain things she didn't understand.

"If your question is this, my answer is: Yes, the eldest brother has indeed practiced like this. If you're worried that your useless husband will die because of this, you have to be careful with him!"

The elder brother's attitude was strange, Xiaocao frowned, and asked again, there had been a change in the field, which made the people in the city clamoring.

Without waiting for the delegation to make contact with Bai Xingxing, in front of the delegation, which was more than a few hundred people, a white figure appeared. He was not tall, but Sen Han's eyes exuded a strong sense of oppression, letting everyone know that he had bad intentions, and when the people in the city recognized him as the culprit of that day's baptism, they were even more agitated.

Bai Qi's gaze shifted horizontally, from left to right, and everyone who met his gaze couldn't help but shudder. After confirming it, he said coldly: "Summing is acceptable, but until then...... What about the conditions we offered?"

I don't understand who this person is, but seeing that he dares to speak in front of Bai Xing, it can be seen that his status is not low, and everyone does not dare to slack off, a palace elder arched his hand and said: "Prince Lancelot has abdicated, here is the abdication announcement and the proof that we recognize the royal power of His Royal Highness Bai Xing......"

"There is no need for proof of such a thing as royal power, if you can order others with proof, how can you be so embarrassed? Bai Qi said: "What about the head of the puppet king? As the victor, we demand that the responsibility for the war be held accountable, and we will sacrifice the culprit who caused this war with blood, and for the sake of peace, please do not shield him." ”

"Yes...... But...... This kind of thing...... We're really ......."

The delegates were speechless, and although the original announcement demanded that Lancelot's head be handed over, this kind of demand that was impossible to do was regarded by anyone as a diplomatic negotiation technique, and did not pay serious attention to it, believing that as long as Lancelot was forced to abdicate, the conditions for peace could be met.

It's not just them, even if it's daytime, they haven't thought about really using Lancelot's head as a condition for peace talks, it's not so much that they don't want to, but they don't dare, he is a mortal without the power of heaven after all, even if he becomes the king of Reins, if he has to beware of the heavenly assassin day and night in the future, it is also boring, and he can force Lancelot to abdicate and go away, which can be said to be the most ideal result。

"I can't say that we can't hand it over? There is only one and only one requirement for our peace talks, and we can't even fulfill this only one, and I really doubt the sincerity of your peace request. ”

"But...... Prince Lancelot is gone, so we might as well ...... I can't find him!"

"That's your family's business. With an outrageous and unreasonable sentence, Bai Qi completely shattered the hope of the delegation, and said coldly: "Today I have decided to sacrifice blood, since you can't hand over the head of the puppet king, then you have to replace it with your own, but...... You alone seem to be too little......"

At first, people thought that his target was the members of the delegation in front of him, but when they heard a crash, accompanied by a large number of frightened screams, they realized that he had targeted the innocent people in the city. The missile momentum of a type of nuclear fusion fist hit a corner of the city as heavy as a thousand pounds, and under the raging power of the heavenly position, it immediately caused dozens of casualties.

"Isn't it fun to watch such a thing? I like to watch it so much, so let's put on something for others to see......

From left to right, the continuous attack of the machine gun of the nuclear fusion fist, sweeping across the city, powerful lethality, how can anyone block it, although the panicked people ran wildly and fled, it was impossible to run away for a while, and in a series of explosions, hundreds of fragmented corpses once again added more blood marks to the head of the city.

"Stop!"

Those who shouted these two words at the same time came from several different directions. The four deputies in the delegation who shouted these two words were instantly blown into a pile of minced meat; they fainted when they were immediately shouting these two words by a long-range air bomb; they shouted these two words under the city wall, and the grass that was ready to stand up grabbed the arms of the brother behind them and stopped.

"Brother, you shouldn't ......"

"There's nothing to be and shouldn't be. Liya, what the eldest brother is going to do now, don't interfere, if you have something to say, wait until the matter is over. ”

"But ......"

"If you persist, I won't back down this time, are you going to confront me, the head of the Bai family?"

The elder brother's expression was extremely serious, which made Xiaocao hesitate for a while, unable to make a decisive judgment, at this time Bai Qi had already changed his direction, and waved his hand casually, and one-third of the number of people in the delegation became the victims of this blow.

"Stop!"

Like a roar of thunder, from Lancelot falling from the sky. Because he didn't want people to find out that he was watching, he hid in the air far away, and used his Tianxin consciousness to spy on everything below.

The Fenghua knife he was accustomed to was lost in the battle with Han Te during the Great Baptism, and he has not been able to recover it since then, and it is presumed that he took it from the enemy, and now he doesn't care about it, and he pours the knife into his hand and slashes at Bai Qi's body.

"If I came so slowly, if I count on you, are there any living people in Jixia City?"

Mocking in his mouth, Bai Qi had no intention of facing it head-on, and with a twist of his arms, a style of Tai Chi winding silk strength had already pulled a representative next to him, and at a wonderful angle that could not be dodged, he was torn apart under the strength of the Hongyi Sword.

"You!"

Knowing that the opponent was sinister, but in the face of such a cheap tactic, Lancelot still didn't know how to deal with it, and struggled to parry a nuclear fusion punch from Bai Qi, and retreated by taking advantage of the momentum, staring coldly at the enemy who was forcing him again and again.

"Surnamed Bai, this is my last warning to you. Lancelot held back his anger and said, "For the sake of everyone being relatives, I have repeatedly backed down, you dwarf don't know what to do, and you have me off." ”

Unbeknownst to Lancelot, Gengoro had said the same thing a few days earlier at the North Gate Tenseki, but in comparison, Lancelot's threat was not significant in the eyes of Bai Qi.

"I really don't know how to distinguish between good and bad, do you want to educate me?" Bai Qi snapped his fingers, killed two more deputies who wanted to escape, suppressed the others, and said: "Oh! I just killed two more guys, will this make you very angry? What if it makes you angry?"

"I'll kill you!"

Lancelot is really angry, and the anger that has accumulated for a long time is exploding at this moment. He didn't understand why the other side still wanted to be aggressive at the moment when he had already made it clear that he had already made it a concession?

However, this problem could not be explained for a while, and in the face of Lancelot's menacing momentum, Bai Qi was calm as usual, and with a few circular arcs under his feet, he completely resolved the knife momentum he attacked, and even walked in the delegation, and pushed the two of them over easily.

Erupting in the power of the heavenly position, it is necessary to control it so as not to hurt the innocent, Lancelot has already felt quite hard, and at this time he saw two human bodies flying over, although he had already prepared, but while unloading them, he still inevitably exposed a gap, and was knocked back by a white punch.

Stabilize the momentum as soon as possible, but found that the two people who were thrown just now had been shocked to death by the strength of the nuclear fusion fist at the beginning, and they were punched in vain, but nothing was saved, and they fell completely into Bai Qi's calculations, and his heart was discouraged, but his anger was even stronger.

"After the fire got bigger, did you decide to lie on the ground and roll to show me? Sure enough, it was majestic!" There was a strange force in the fist, which made Lancelot difficult to answer for a while, and Bai Qi mocked unceremoniously, and his arrogant posture surprised Hante, who was watching not far away.

Bai Qi's battle mode is absolutely calm and precise, there is no mistake, and he does not do anything superfluous, arrogant words like this are not in line with his personality, what is he deliberately doing so deliberately?

Hante felt mixed things in his heart. In a way, he was really glad that Bai Qi did not ask himself to go on the field, although he said that he was not human, and he was used to the thinking mode of working for money and putting aside right and wrong, and he could still suppress his own reaction to such a massacre, but if Bai Qi ordered himself to stop Lancelot, let him go and kill, and even ordered himself to slaughter all the people present, this would still be a very disgusting task.

Several high-ranking generals approached Hunter and whispered to him how to respond, and Hunter wondered why he was the subject of questioning, and on the other hand, he also made suggestions.

"The situation is not quite right, I suggest that you withdraw your army immediately, don't get involved in this matter, the supreme leader of your family looks very strange, and if he goes crazy later, maybe he will kill all the humans present......

It sounds crazy, but Hante and the rest of the people know that Bai Qi is not a person who can be limited by common sense, and under this advice, the generals of all parties are busy calming the noise of their soldiers and slowly begin to retreat their troops.

At the same time, a question slowly took shape in Hante's heart......

On the other side, the confrontation between Bai Qi and Lancelot continued, originally Lancelot expected that while he was entangled with Bai Qi, these hostages who couldn't stretch their hands and feet would be able to escape while they were empty, but they all stood there one by one, and when they looked closely, they were all pointed at the acupoints, and they couldn't move if they wanted to.

"You bastard, if you have a kind of let go of these people, the two of us will fight it out! Didn't you make a contract with the demon god and practice some tricks to integrate magic? If you are brave enough, use it to compare!"

"You ask for this because you are sure that you will outperform me in a head-to-head battle, right?In that case, why should I be so obedient?Even if I let them go, will you be a little more comfortable?" Bai Qi smiled slightly, and the nuclear fusion fist was fired again, while the left hand blocked Lancelot's attack, the main force of the right hand had already hit the city, and in the screams, there were more than 100 dead and wounded.

"What if you let them go? There are too many things that can be used here to threaten you and disturb you, if I rush directly into the Jiji and kill anyone I see, can you stop me? I will turn around now and start killing this army that eats and does nothing, can you stop me?"

"But...... They are your subordinates...... You ......"

"Wouldn't it be cost-effective to sacrifice one or two thousand men to make a flaw for you, so that I could finish you off in a quarter of an hour?"

The cold words, the bias is so simple, Lancelot fully understands, the enemy in front of him has entered an inexplicable state, and the anger in his heart is blazing, and the bias is just unable to think of a way, how to defeat him.

"You, you're from Reins, aren't you? These people are your countrymen, why are you so cruel?"

"Oh, you don't need to be so excited, these people are not your compatriots, why do you care about them so much? When you are the fifth king? If you are really that great, then sacrifice yourself for these human beings!"

I don't know how Bai Qi did it, but when he stretched out his hand again, the Fenghua knife had already appeared in his hand and threw it in front of Lancelot.

"The origin of all wars is because of you, as long as you use this knife to cut off your own head, these human beings can live, there will be no more wars in Reins, and Eltino can also keep the peace, hey! One person's sacrifice can be exchanged for so many things, they will probably build a memorial for you, and cast bronze statues of your heroes in major cities to commemorate!"

The Fenghua knife was inserted in front of him, and the words of Bai Qi were in his ears, but it made Lancelot's thoughts surge, and he looked at the divine soldier in front of him blankly for a while.

It is not the first time that someone has threatened to commit suicide, and she has also been threatened like this when she fought against Hao Kelian side by side with Feng'er before. That time, he once generously handed over the Fenghua knife to Feng'er and let her make a decision.

In a sense, it's an escape. But this time, the only person who can make a decision is himself, and there is no place to retreat.

"Haven't you already voluntarily given up the throne in order to keep these human beings from harm? ”

Through a floating camera, a stereoscopic image of Bai Qi and Lancelot talking to him is shown in all major Reyns cities, including Jishita. Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, Lancelot could still feel the heavy pressure of thousands of people pointing at him and watching thousands of people.

How to choose?

In my heart, the answer is actually obvious, no matter how generous you are, but for a group of people you don't know at all, you have to die by yourself, which is really unwilling......

Before, I used my senior brother as a model of action, and I always believed in it so much. For the sake of one's own selfishness, it is a great sin to implicate many innocents, so although it is very humiliating, I still choose to retreat like a turtle with a tail and a shrunken head.

It's easy to stand up and fight, but if you cause innocent people to bleed because of your recklessness, that's a lifelong regret. Gengoro was problematic in many ways, but at least on this point, he taught himself this notion.

But now that concept is facing a major test. It's not difficult to take a step forward, but in this way, doesn't the selfish choice you make destroy all your previous efforts?

"Don't you always want to imitate Wang Wu? Learn from his martial arts, learn from his personality, learn from his style of courageous retreat, if it is a heavenly sword of great benevolence and righteousness, you should be happy to sacrifice for the people! Don't hesitate, die bravely!"

In his own concept, Senior Brother is the kind of person who is willing to sacrifice and pay for the people, but if he can be threatened so easily, he is afraid that he will not have died a thousand times, how can he become a heavenly sword?

For the first time, the image of Wang Wu was shaken in Lancelot's mind, and he was deeply at a loss.

"Why? Are you so scared that you can't even pick up a knife? Timid, cowardly, selfish, what kind of heavenly knife did you learn?"

"Shut up!"

Many thoughts swirled in Lancelot's mind, making him too sad to think, and in the end all that was left was extreme anger, and the snow knife that slashed out from this anger.

"Well, since in the end you have abandoned your people for your own selfishness, why do you pretend to be great before? What kind of mask do you wear? In the end, you are just a mortal, a selfish ordinary person full of desires......

"Shut your dog's mouth!"

A knife slashed out in anger, in addition to anger, there is also a kind of pain ignited by shame, Bai Qi's words, every word is burned in his heart, forced to break his own efforts, Lancelot is really painful, especially thinking that all the subordinates are condemning their own selfishness with disdain, and their hearts are furious, turning into avalanche waves of knives, surging straight to Baiqi.

The vicious situation, even if you use hostages to block it, you will still be hurt, and Bai Qi has to retreat first and fight back. The wonderful body method of the photoelectric leg shuttled through Lancelot's knife waves without hindrance, but it also left the hostage range, making Lancelot have no scruples and the knife is stronger.

Each heavenly master, they have their different battle mode, for Lancelot, momentum is a very important part, as long as he grabs the momentum in the battle, he will become stronger and stronger, so that the enemy is defeated, this point is very clear, so in the past battles, he interrupted Lancelot's momentum at the beginning, not allowing him to have a chance to exert his full strength, this time is no exception.

When he retreated to the ideal distance, he raised the five fingers of his right hand and flew quickly. It wasn't the fist move of the Nuclear Fusion Fist, but the precise calculation of some kind of ancient demonic way, and with this blow, he was going to overwhelm Lancelot in an instant.

Then, to everyone's surprise, a brilliant lightning light fell from the sky, turning into a thousand golden snakes in an instant, and frantically concentrated on Lancelot.

It was the orbital light cannon that Ailing provided to Bai Qi, since Bai Qi went out, Bai Xing didn't give Bai Qi the method and password because he wanted to keep such a secret weapon in his hand, so he no longer used it, but he didn't expect Bai Qi to crack all the passwords privately and use them.

"Do you think it's going to work every time?"

After trying out the secret mechanism to no avail, Lancelot let out a loud shout, and the power of the Heavenly Position of the Body Protector exploded, and he actually rejected all the pillars of light that were knocked down, and he couldn't reach his body in the slightest, let alone give Bai Qi a space for a sneak attack.

Seeing this scene, Hant was really surprised, because when he fought with Lancelot that day, both sides were in a hurry with this inevitable sky cannon, but at this moment, Lancelot was able to easily defeat it with his protective strength, which shows that he has indeed worked this and studied the way to crack it.

"In the decisive battle of the heavenly position, these firearms do not have any influence ability at all, and if you still want to borrow weapons, you are doomed to lose today!"

Over a hundred cannon pillars, in Lancelot's radius of a foot, burst into brilliant fireworks, the electric light is chaotic, the brake is good-looking, and taking advantage of this momentum, the "strong captives are wiped out" is even more unstoppable, like angry waves cracking the shore, straight to the white.

In the face of this blow, Bai Qi had no intention of retreating, and after a rapid flick of the five fingers of his right hand, his index finger tapped on the non-existent keyboard.

(Keep your eyes open, old man!!) Let me see what you can make after peeking at this trick...... ）
