Chapter Ninety-Five: The Assassination in Full Sight

"When did the Apostate lurk in the Imperial Capital?" said Mark Duna in a low voice to the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Apostate was found in villages and city-states all over the country, and every year the Inquisition dragged criminals who claimed to be the organization to the guillotine in Saint-Louis-Zeit. However, what they do is no more conspicuous than robbery, theft, and adultery.

When it was heard that the heirs of Haisa Larsen and a group of outcasts had established power in the city of Paliva, the major families of the empire were not impressed. The throne has changed, and they are too busy with power struggles to think that the southern city can afford to make any waves.

When the sorcerers who claimed to be traitors swaggered in the council chamber, satirizing the affairs of the court and the state, mirroring the four great families, and lighting a fire in front of the important ministers of the Imperial Council, they felt creepy.

When the hell did this organization rise?!

Before they knew it, the poisonous scorpions were thriving, and the only way to destroy them was to crush their nests with the wheels of war. Faced with the arrogant warlocks standing in front of them, the ministers realized that they had to put aside their infighting and send troops to the south.

However...... Someone in the Imperial Realm must have discovered the clues a long time ago, and the Timberwolf news network is all over the country, and it will not be unnoticed.

"Who knows," replied Evan Hall, stroking his mustache, "maybe they never left." ”

Mark Duna turned his head away, the usual smile on his face subtracted considerably.

At this time, the procession of escorting the courtiers was about to leave the council hall, and the royal family and the ministers were surrounded by heavy guards, but because of the large number of people, the scene was inevitably chaotic.

As the team approached Arthur's side, several of the guards were pushed and fell towards the weak prince.

At this moment, a silver blade suddenly appeared in the guard's hand, and several dark streams of light flashed through the crowd, slashing towards the prince's throat. Arthur had a hunch and quickly backed away, but the blades still scratched the skin on his face, neck, and arms.

Because of his nervousness, the prince couldn't breathe for a while, coughed violently, and almost fell backwards, but everyone pretended not to see and continued to move forward, and several palace guards attacked him with impunity.

The blade sliced through the air and aimed at the Prince's neck, and if he punctured the veins in his neck, he would lie on the ground like a frog spitting foam, convulse for a few minutes, and die quietly in the presence of all deaf ears.

There will be one less Stanley.

The moment the blade was attached to Arthur, Brand-East drew the dagger from her waist, her scabbard made of the black iron of the Ice Soul, wrapped around her waist with a cloth belt, and the handle hidden in the black veil.

"Assassin!" she shouted, slashing at one of the guards' wrists, and the sound of blades falling to the ground was heard.

Brandy picked up Arthur and took cover in front of him. More blades came at her. She kicked the nearest guard in the knee, kicking him hard at the attacking guard, raising her dagger and stabbing it into the palm of another sneak attacker.

Blood splattered on Bai Lan's face, and at this time, her hair was loose, and her long blonde hair slipped to her waist, and the bright red was especially bright against her snow-white complexion and black skirt.

At this time, Evan Hall looked around and shouted, "Assassins, assassins, protect the Queen Mother and the King, protect the Prince!"

His voice echoed through the halls of the council, but was not answered.

However, this effectively stopped the Assassins' actions, as Prime Minister Elio winked at him with great displeasure.

"Prime Minister, the assassins are still hiding in the guards, and I'm afraid it will be bad for everyone. Evan feigned nervousness.

And Blanch-East interjected: "Is the trick of the imperial capital to murder a prince in front of everyone's eyes?"

Her voice was sarcastic, her voice was clear, and she was not afraid of everyone present.

Elio Patton's face turned pale, he clenched his sword, he stared at Arthur Stanley, who was still panting and almost fainting, and then at the suffocatingly beautiful woman beside him, and suddenly let out a sneer.

"Okay, the of the north climbed into the prince's bed, but little darling, you are not a backer, but a mess of rotten meat, and he won't live long!"

"Your Excellency, your description of the members of the royal family is truly astonishing, and I am sure that people outside the Golden Palace will be shocked if they hear it. "Brand-Easter was-for-tat and didn't take the former prime minister into account at all.

"Prime Minister, the Assassins are still hiding in the guards. At this time, Evan Hall reminded him again.

Elio was furious, and he gripped his sword with his other hand, his green eyes glowing coldly, as if he wanted to eat everyone he confronted.

"Catch them. At this time, the Queen Mother spoke in place of her brother, and several palace guards pretended to pounce on her, and the two assassins with wounded hands also pretended to struggle for a while, and then were captured.

"Put them in a dungeon. Elio ordered angrily.

"Kill them for safety. The Queen Mother Regent interrupted her brother's speech.

As soon as he finished speaking, several other palace guards hurried forward, drew their blades, and swung their swords at the necks of the two assassins, who were bloodied in an instant, and the blood pillars stained the faces and armor of the surrounding guards red. The Assassin fell to the ground with his eyes open, twitched on the ground a few times before remaining motionless, not knowing what was going on until he died.

The expression of the former prime minister could not be described as wonderful, and his sister coldly ordered: "Rigoletto is about to be executed, go to the Sun Fountain." ”

When Turing heard this, he clapped his hands and laughed: "Look at the killing! Look at the killing!"

Under the protection of the guards, the royal family and the important ministers stepped over the bodies of the two Assassins and followed the escort of the prisoners through the Iris Promenade to the Fountain of the Sun.

By this time it was dark, and the spring water that poured into the air did not reflect a trace of light, and the dark red clouds drew a line on the horizon, and the dense stratus clouds filled the sky like a black tide.

Rigoletto's hands and feet were tied behind his back, his head was covered with a thick linen hood, and his body was stained with the blood of the guards or his own, and he was pressed to his knees by several guards.

The criminals breathed heavily, causing the sackcloth to shrivele and show the outline of their heads, and a fly-like buzz came from the sacks.

The Queen Regent looked at the kneeling people and thought they were herself, Elio Patton, Mark Duna, Bailey Sieri and Nicolas Gluck.

The crowd that was now standing and watching the execution had all become faceless prisoners covered in blood.

She felt that Turing Stanley's soul had come back to life, and she stood in front of her, next to the fountain of the sun, her head melted by poison, her face blackened, her tongue sticking out, and she watched it all quietly with eyes covered with black water.

She saw the shiny blades raised, raised in the dim sky.

Queen Mother Lelia couldn't help but shudder.
