Chapter 224: Coincidence

The morning sun was not yet very strong, and a small city along the coast of the kingdom of Sauron was still shrouded in the tranquility of the night. The soldiers at the city gate opened the city gate early and lined up nervously on guard.

There were very few pedestrians on the street, but a group of cavalry of the Royal Order galloped from the end of the long street, and they lined up to surprise the few pedestrians on the street: what day is it, and why are the people of the Royal Order here?

On the other side of the city, on the coastal docks, the army has long been on guard.

This is a military port of the Kingdom of Sauron, although this city is not big, but this port that can accommodate a hundred warships is a pride of this city! At this moment, the port has been sealed, and there are several warships of the royal navy of the Kingdom of Sauron on the dock.

A convoy of cavalry escorted out of the harbor and slowly passed through the city towards the city gates.

The royal knights in bright armor walked in the front, and a delicate carriage behind it was clearly printed with the coat of arms of the king of the kingdom of Sauron!

It's just the small flag on it, but it makes people see that this is a convoy belonging to Prince Emaar of the Sauron Kingdom!

The local troops, who had been pulled out in the middle of the night to guard the port, realized that it was His Majesty's own brother, Prince Aymaar, who had come to inspect the day—no wonder it was so tightly guarded.

On that delicate carriage, I am afraid that the noble prince is seated.

Only a few experienced old knights can see a little difference from some clues!

The twenty knights who surrounded the carriage seemed a little different.

Although they wore the uniforms of the royal guard of honor, judging from their riding posture, as well as their skillful handling of horses, coupled with the fierce face of their faces, and most importantly, the queue they maintained......

These people are definitely not those honor guards who can only put on a show!

Just look at the tight queue when they ride horses. It was a special kind of defensive queue at all! Although this kind of queue had never been used in the cavalry armies of the Kingdom of Sauron, the experienced warriors could see the mystery of this kind of queue at a glance!

There can be no doubt. In the event of any emergency, the riders in the uniforms of the guard of honor can defend and fight back as quickly as possible under this ingenious queue!

And their postures, although they seem to do their best to hide them, can still be seen. They are definitely not those rubbish of the honor guard. These are definitely experienced warriors!

What's even more strange is that. They involuntarily exuded a faint evil aura! That was definitely the temperament that only a warrior who had experienced a real battlefield of flesh and blood could have!

From a certain point of view, these guys are probably more elite than the royal knights who are at the front of the queue!

The convoy gradually moved into the center of the city, and the few pedestrians in the morning streets were driven to either side by the cavalry.

There were also many loyal royal commoners standing on the side of the road, taking off their hats and bowing to the carriage from afar. Some people even shouted: "Long live the king, long live the prince, long live the kingdom of Sauron!"

As the number of onlookers grew, the captain of the Royal Knights in front was a little nervous. The increasing number of pedestrians undoubtedly makes it more difficult to guard. He ordered the degree of progress to be quickened.

In the small crowd of onlookers, there were two special guys in the middle......

"That's funny...... The royal family of the Kingdom of Sauron seems to be very popular. A lazy voice chuckled under his breath.

Then the two gradually retreated from the crowd and walked up to a small building next to them. When they reached the upper floor, the two opened the window in their room and watched from afar as the team on the street had quickened their pace.

The slender man gently touched his chin, as if thinking about something. It is worth noting that his fingers are slender and powerful, and his skin is fair. Such a delicate hand shows that its owner is definitely a noble nobleman.

Then, the hand gently touched the wisp in front of his forehead, and in the morning sun, the golden curl looked so noble and splendid.

This man was smiling, and above his handsome face, he smiled as if with a little deep meaning, and a pair of eyes as blue as a lake flashed with wisdom.

"It's fun, it's really fun. Don't you show up?" he turned to look at the man behind him, and then pointed downstairs: "I saw a few familiar faces in that queue just now! Especially the two people on the left side of that carriage, I have seen them in the palace, they are both high samurai of the Imperial Imperial Guard. ”

He smiled even more happily: "Don't you think there's something interesting here......, too?"

Under the sun, his face was finally completely clearly exposed, this person was none other than the heir of the orthodox Tulip family who had been missing for a long time, Seth!

The old guy behind him, the old monster who had lived for more than two hundred years, Old Mark seemed to be frowning: "Master Seth, is your curiosity rising again?"

"Why not?" said Seth, who shrugged his shoulders and smiled pleasantly, "I have a hunch, old Mark. There seems to be something very, very interesting waiting for us!"

Old Mark showed a bit of a toothache-like expression on his face, and muttered in a low voice: "Interesting, whew, in your dictionary, usually 'interesting' means 'trouble'!"

Gasp!

Heavy gasps rang out in the hall, and the paladin fell to his knees on one knee, struggling to support his body with the long sword in his hand to keep himself from falling.

In his sword-holding hand, a wisp of scarlet blood slowly flowed down the sharp blade and onto the floor.

Augustine's face was a little pale, but his eyes were still determined.

On his shoulder, a small pale hand gently supported him. Then tears like ice crystals slowly dripped down and landed on the paladin's blood-stained golden armor!

Black Veil had a sad expression on her face, her beautiful eyes were full of tears, and her face was also stained with tears. She bit her lip as hard as she could, so that she didn't cry out loud.

"Augustine. You, why are you doing this?" she grabbed Augustine's arm tightly.

Black Yarn was completely moved.

Seeing this paladin, whom she had respected since childhood, pierce his own chest with a horizontal sword in front of him! Before the black veil could understand, Augustine's next action made her completely understand the paladin's intentions!

After Augustine pierced himself. He pulled out his sword with all his might, and then pressed his hand against the wound on his chest. A powerful fighting spirit exploded in the chest!

That fighting spirit not only tore the golden armor on his chest. At the same time, a bloody wound was blown up on the sword wound in his chest! This act completely concealed the fact of the sword wound, making the wound look as if the magician had blown it open with some kind of magic!

Then, the paladin squeezed out a reluctant smile on his face, looked at the black yarn, and said sadly: "That's it." They won't see that I'm self-harming!"

Kurosha fully understood Augustine's intentions, and she cried bitterly and hugged the paladin who was like a brother and a father to her, and carried the healing magic of the light system in her hand. He pressed down on Augustine's chest wound.

Unexpectedly, Augustine suddenly raised his hand to push her away! I didn't expect the other party to use such a huge force to push her away, and the black yarn that couldn't be caught off guard was pushed and fell to the side.

Augustine gasped, "Don't, don't treat me! I've finally made up my mind to give myself a sword! Don't waste my efforts!" Immediately, he bit his lip, and the severe pain made him barely stand up, and said in a hoarse voice: "Miaosi, you go quickly! As you say, get out of here, leave the temple, leave Roland 6! Go to the Empire of Light! That's the only way for you to live!"

Black Yarn had a sad look on her face, and then she got up from the ground, walked over and grabbed Augustine's hand, who seemed to want to shake it off, but the severe injury on his chest made him almost unable to stand. A trace of holy white magic in Black Veil's hand passed down her hand and into Augustine's body!

"You, what are you doing!" said Augustine.

Hei Sha's hand was clenched tightly, and her face showed a somewhat resolute expression: "Augustine! I can't let you do such a thing!

The strength of the strongest saint in the temple, the great cultivator, was really extraordinary, and the wound muscles on Augustine's chest squirmed wildly, and then began to heal at an extremely fast rate. Augustine closed his eyes in pain and smiled bitterly, "What do you want? Don't you want to live?"

Hei Sha didn't speak, a cold sweat appeared on her face, obviously even if she was a great cultivator, it would take too much of her strength to heal such a serious injury in such a short period of time.

"I'm not cold-blooded. Augustine!" Black Veil's tone was low and slow: "If the price is to be exchanged for your blood, then I must not do this!"

Augustine frowned: "I'm just shedding some blood so that I can go back to my life, and even if they blame me for my bad deeds, they won't put me to death." ”

Hei Sha shook his head: "Augustine, you don't know our lord too well, since he dares to risk the situation of confrontation with the entire Roland 6 Kingdom to sit on the throne of the Pope, will he still care about killing you alone? You know? Since he sent you, then if you don't kill me, you will die! Don't you understand? Killing me is a test for you! If you kill me, he will rest assured of you!"

Before Augustine could speak, Black had already smiled and said, "Alright!"

He let go of Augustine's hand, but his face turned pale, his body shook, and he seemed to be a little unsteady on his feet.

Augustine changed color and said, "What kind of healing technique are you using on me? Is it 'life magic'? Why are you using this kind of costly magic?"

Heisha shook her head and smiled, "You are willing to shed blood for me, then I should spend a little energy for you!" She looked at Augustine's eyes, and the indifference on her face turned into a gentle smile: "You have been my closest friend since the day I entered the temple, Augustine. In the indifferent crowd of the temple, you are the only one who really has a warm heart!"

Augustine smiled wryly, "You've always been so headstrong, and you're the same now. But have you thought about it? What are you going to do now?"

Hei Sha took a breath and suddenly said, "Even though you say that I have changed, but for you, I am willing to compromise for a while!" Her tone gradually became bitter: "Isn't it okay to help you kill the envoy of the Bright Empire?"

Augustine frowned: "You ......"

Hei Sha shook his head and said lightly: "You don't need ......to say it! Hum...... I'm not the first and definitely not the last to have this kind of thing in the temple. ”

Augustine stared at the black veil's face, as if trying to see something in her expression, but all he saw was indifference.

"You've really figured it out?"

Black Veil nodded: "I'll help you once, so that I can at least save you!" Augustine...... She looked at the paladin in front of her: "You may be the last pillar left in the temple!

"As for my ......" Heisha seemed to smile: "After you return to your life, I will leave!

Behind the indifferent smile of the black veil, Augustine saw a bit of sadness and despair. This stubborn and willful guy always likes to disguise himself with a mask?

Before Augustine could continue to speak, Black Veil had already opened his mouth and asked, "Where is that envoy of the Empire of Light now?

"If the information I received before I came was accurate, they would disembark in the coastal city and follow the southern road to the royal capital, where a royal order of knights would be ordered to escort them. ”

Black Yarn nodded: "Who is that envoy?"

"It's an earl. It is said that he is a young man who has recently won the favor of the Emperor in the Empire of Light, and is the commander of the Imperial Guard. Born as a military general, presumably his strength will not be weak. ”

The black veil still nodded, her expression cold—and she could only hide the emotions in her heart with this mask of indifference.

I'm afraid this is the sadness of being used as a sharp weapon!

Kill someone...... Black yarn seemed to be asking herself in her heart, just kill someone. In any case, as long as you kill one person, you can save Augustine, this should be the right choice......"

But Augustine's next sentence hit Black Veil like a heavy hammer in the heart!

That sentence was not loud, but every word roared in my ears like thunder and lightning!

"The envoy's name is Roddy!"

Roddy......

Roddy!

Roddy?

I suddenly felt a sharp pain like a tear in my brain, and then a fragment appeared more and more clearly in Hei Sha's mind:

The young man with a warm and bright smile, the young man who always likes to call himself "stupid", in the wilderness of the northwest, the eyes look at him, and say the words to himself in such a gentle voice......

"You remember, my name is Roddy! ”

The mask of indifference collapsed instantly, and the weak body of the black gauze suddenly trembled violently!

"Could it be him, or is it just a coincidence with the same name?"
