226. Advance, Africa!2
The smell of fishy smell penetrated Philip's nostrils, the strong smell of blood lingered in the air, and the steed under his seat stepped into the ungarrisoned Africa, and Philip felt like he was back in the bloody battlefield.
With blood flowing through the cracks in the rocks and human limbs visible on the pavement, Philip could hardly imagine how a civilized city could have become.
As he grew older, Philip no longer had an empty sense of nobility, but the city of Africa, he had to save, after all, it was closely related to his future interests.
Even if Lobit later became the capital of the province of New Gallia, Africa would still be a city with a large population and economy, and its future political achievements would still need to be supported by such a city, and Philip would not allow what he had in his hands to be destroyed no matter what.
On the road ahead, a naked, scrawny man was lying on the ground, chewing "rattle" from underneath his body.
Philip was ready to show his proximity as the future owner of the land, and pulled a loaf of bread from his mount to throw it to the man.
The slick, fat head was raised, and the crimson eyes were staring at Philip as he was about to ride his horse, and he held a broken arm in his hand, which was full of gnawed marks, and between the sharp teeth, the liquid mixed with saliva and blood flowed down, and he, no, it seemed to have found something more delicious than the food in his hand.
Ghouls!
With his mouth wide open, the ghoul landed on all fours. Rushing towards Philip, it seems, it was using Philip as a new food.
The snow-white ice spear reached out of Philip's hand and stabbed directly into the ghoul's mouth, piercing it throughout.
"Roar ......"
The ghoul made an indecipherable sound in his throat, filthy liquid gushing out of his throat, struggling to push the ice spear out of his body, but unfortunately, the more he struggled, the more damage the ghoul suffered. It didn't take long. The ghoul fell to the ground, leaving only his dying convulsions.
"Hell, how can there be ghouls? Does the Herath family want to accept the punishment of the gods? It is a big taboo to secretly transport such creatures from the Demon Continent!"
Grace stepped forward, rolled the eyelids of the ghoul who had swallowed the last breath, looked at it for a while, and said, "It wasn't transported from the Demon Continent. It's a ghoul who hasn't been transformed for a long time. It should be some gangster who wants to pursue a strong force. ”
Grace tiptoed at the silver-plated chain around the ghoul's neck. This kind of thing can only be built by the gangsters at the bottom of society.
Philip breathed a sigh of relief, even if the Heras blood clan was making trouble within the empire, he didn't want to get involved in the intrigues between the two continents. If you are caught in that kind of thing, you will only end up in pieces.
In any case, this incident also proves how chaotic Africa is now, and if it were another city, whenever there were ghouls, all kinds of church fanatics would run out to destroy this unclean creature. As for cannibalism on the street, it is absolutely impossible to happen.
"All attention! march to the Doge's Palace and destroy all evil creatures in your path!" Philip shouted, waving his hand, pointing to a towering fortress in the center of the city, where all the chaos in Galia was at its source.
The situation in Africa was much worse than in Akureyri, and along the way, Philip encountered a large number of thugs, forcing him to stop and help ordinary people who were being hunted by the mob.
"I hate my conscience!"
In anger, Philip throws a fireball and burns the fleeing mob into a burning man.
Conscience became less and less common after Philip embarked on the road of struggle for power, and he seemed to be constantly moving towards a politician with no bottom line.
However, after seeing the cannibalistic hell of Afrika, the little thing in his heart began to sprout again, so that Philip had to stop his progress at any time and command the army to help the people.
"Thank you, your honor!"
The honest civilian family knelt beside Philip, thanking Philip for appearing like a savior, for them who had no power or power, they were the first to suffer from the riots, those old men could hire guards, and they could only hide cautiously in Tibet, for fear of being discovered by the inhumane thugs.
Philip patted the men in gray linen clothes and helped them up, and the standard "amiable" politician smile hung on his face, and Philip put on such a smiling face that his face was almost stiff.
This is also beneficial, as it can build a good reputation, which will be of great help to Philip's future rule in the region of Galia, and sometimes the reputation of the supreme ruler is the basis for the stability and unity of a region.
"Alright, you first find a place to hide, and when I have been to the Governor's Palace, you will be safe. Philip comforted the family and prepared to leave.
"Your Excellency, are you going to the Governor......'s Palace?"
Seeing that the man seemed to know something, but looked like he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, Philip stopped and continued to be "amiable......
Seeing the warm expression of Philip and the ordinary nobleman, the man seemed to have the courage to say: "My lord, listen, I heard that Governor Ivey has gone crazy, except for fooling around with women and beating people every day, and now there is almost no one in the governor's palace. ”
"Crazy?" Philip glanced at the Doge's Palace, which was already very close to him, and felt as if a fog was hanging in front of him.
There were indeed not many people in the Lord's Mansion of Notda, to be precise, there should be no people, Philip did not see the soldiers guarding at the gate, and he heard the big man who led the way say that not long after the riot, these guards also ran away.
There were no lights in the secluded castle, only the sunlight that came in through the gaps in the thick curtains served as illumination, and the sound of the heels hitting the ground echoed through the large space, making it look unusually cold.
Most of the soldiers were scattered by Philip into the city to suppress the mob, leaving only a few to search the Doge's Palace, which was left without guards anyway, so there was no need to waste too many troops.
Led by Barbara, Philip, Grace and Abigail head deeper into the Doge's Palace, and no matter what, Ivey, the Doge, will still be found, even if he is really crazy, and he will be responsible for the chaos in Galia.
"Wow ha...... Baby, that's it, cool!"
There was a sharp shout from the quiet room, and the abrupt voice was very harsh, although Ivey had not yet been seen, but he could be sure that Ivey had gone crazy by this voice.
Walking into a house with a dark red carpet, I saw Ive, who was as thin as a tree, sitting on the bed, his eyes as bright as light bulbs in the night, embedded in his head, which was particularly obvious.
"Baby, a little more!"
Ivy was flushed and screaming like crazy, like doing something that a man and a woman love to do.
However, as soon as Philip and the others entered, they were all stunned, and the scene in front of them was too absurd.
On the bed, there was only Ivey, there was only one person, the "baby" he said was not there at all, Philip and they obviously came in through the door in front of Ivey, but Ivy did not react at all, and his mouth was still screaming "baby, baby", and the dignified Governor of Galia had fallen into the false world realm, just like the commoner man said.
The Governor has gone mad.
Unable to stand the disgusting thing in front of him, Philip casts a hypnotic spell that causes Ive's eyes to gradually heavily, and finally collapses on the bed in a groggy state.
Naturally, there was a doctor who came with the army, waved his hand to summon the doctor, and made a brief diagnosis for Ivy, and the doctor in the white coat said to Philip with a serious face: "My lord, the situation of the Governor is very bad, his body has been hollowed out because of long-term indulgence, and his spirit seems to be controlled by some kind of drug, and now it is completely occupied by speculation, if my guess is correct, he should have taken some addictive drugs." ”
The Guards physicians also practiced some magic, simple psychic magic that they had to master, and they had to use hypnosis to cut off the pain of wounded soldiers when they operated on them.
"Sure enough, I knew that this was the case, and that Carcassonne must have done it. ”
Barbara said angrily, "Ever since that man became his butler, I have seen Carcassonne often send some pills to Ivey, and it was from that time that Ivy became even more aggressive than before, messing with the women outside, and obeying Carcassonne in everything. ”
The source of the riot is this Carcassonne, and the control of Ivey is also Carcassonne, what is this blood from Vasco going to do?
Philip waved a soldier, "Did you spot anyone else?"
"No, sir. ”
Just then, there was a sound of broken masonry outside the door, and Philip hurried out to see that the wall of a room in the hallway had been shattered, and the soldier fell into the rubble, pulling his head and his chest visibly sunken.
A man in a dress with a look of color glanced in Philip's direction, as if sensing the strength of several people on Philip's side, roared at them, and then ran quickly into the depths of the corridor at a speed that was obviously beyond the reach of humans, occasionally avoiding the sunlight shining in the corridor, and before Philip could even react, he disappeared.
"Bloodline!duke!" Grace said in a deep voice, looking at Philip, and after getting the nod from his lover, Grace chased after him at a speed no less than the bloodline duke just now.
"Barbara, is that Bloodline Carcassonne?" asked Philip, turning his head.
"No, I haven't met that person. ”
"No matter what, the blood clan that appears here must have nothing to do with Carcasson, Abigail, take care of your sister, and by the way, if there is a problem with the suppression of the mob, you can command it on my behalf. ”
After Philip finished speaking, he followed Grace all the way. (To be continued......)
