"Your Excellency Leon, how did you come here? Seriously, I'm a little skeptical...... Does what happened here have anything to do with you? ”

Emperor Marius squinted at Li Ang, who suddenly appeared from the corner, and His Majesty the Emperor was obviously a little unclear about the situation.

He knew that Leon had sent troops to deal with the Serpent Cult, but he didn't know that the Serpent Cult's army had been killed by Leon alone—Emperor Marius had been held hostage by Kairos recently, and of course he couldn't receive any information.

"Your Majesty, I really didn't expect our first meeting to be under such circumstances. However, you should not suspect a friend who has been offering selfless help...... And, if I were you, I would have to worry about my own life first. It's clearly all about you, and it's clear that Kairos was just deceived......"

Leon beckoned, and a large group of strong men emerged from the abandoned houses in the village and surrounded Keros's guards.

Leon ...... What are you going to do? Are you deliberately leading people to ambush here? What do you know? ”

Seeing that so many of Leon's subordinates suddenly appeared, Keros relented, he got up from the ground, frowned and asked Leon.

The number of guards he brought into the village was not large, only a few dozen shadow centurions, and now these guards gradually gathered together back to back with some uneasiness.

"You're thinking too much, I don't have the time to ambush you...... I'm just not sure if any of your subordinates have any snake worshippers - after all, after what you just said, your entire family has already taken root in the snake worshippers, so I naturally have to be careful...... Your Majesty, do you want to come to my side first? ”

Leon beckoned to Emperor Marius, signaling the kidnapped emperor to leave the dangerous place.

Emperor Marius looked left and right, took a few steps back, withdrew from the control of a few shadow centurions beside him, and moved towards Leon.

Several Shadow Centurions looked at each other, but none of them moved.

Only Keros drew the throwing spear he had with him.

"Kairos...... In this case, you are still planning to do something to kill the king yourself, right? I smashed this temple open, but I promise it's been like this after I smashed it open, and I don't see anyone with snakeskin scales on their necks. And you should be able to see that my men don't dare to get the blood on these corpses - it has nothing to do with me here...... I was just here to find my teammates. ”

Leon said quickly, although he had more people in the village, he always tried to avoid conflicts, and the Shadow Centurion beside Kairos was not easy to deal with.

"Killing the king? I'm not going to do that stupid thing...... But I can't let you take Your Majesty away......"

Keros drew his spear and didn't look at Leon, but glanced around his own men, presumably assessing the fighting power of both sides.

Seeing this, Kairos didn't intend to give up easily.

Sure enough, any father is very persistent when faced with such a thing as saving his son.

"Didn't you think that the so-called priest was just deceiving you? Your son isn't here......"

Leon looked at Kairos and shook his head, "If your son can still move—even if he can act like a puppet, that guy will definitely let your son come forward and contact you...... The current situation can only show ......"

"Nope! Shut up! ”

Kairos' eyes widened and he exclaimed, a hint of despair and madness on his face: "My son must still be alive......".

Probably only when his own son is in trouble, a big man like Kairos will be so difficult to communicate with his temperament.

But he still had some sense after all, and Leon's troops surrounded him at this time, and of course he didn't attack anyone, just confronted Leon.

It's obviously not a way to be so stiff, Anson doesn't know where it is, and Leon still has to think of finding his own medical officer, but he doesn't have time to waste here.

Just when the lord was about to solve the problem by force, something strange happened.

"My lord, it'...... It moves! ”

Klose suddenly pointed to the altar with straight eyes, as if he had seen a ghost.

In fact, it was indeed a hell of a sight - everyone turned their heads together, and the dead man whose chest and abdomen were opened, and his heart in his chest cavity was not beating at all, actually began to move!

Leon now understood why Kairos was so persistent, and the Serpent Cult could bring back all the people who had been so mortally wounded, so it seemed that saving Kairos's son was not empty talk.

I just don't know what the resurrected person will lose......

"When it comes out, I'll kill this...... It's obviously just as powerful as Kastro......"

Sigismund muttered, gesturing with the great sword in his hand.

The monster inside the altar had torn off the chains that bound its hands and feet—several of the nails that had nailed the chains to the four-pointed star platform had been pulled out by it, and it looked effortless, as if the nails were just embedded in tofu.

But the nail was half a foot long, and the four-pointed star platform was obviously not a rotten object, but a solid wood platform that was very strong at first sight......

This naturally implies inhuman strength.

However, at this time, no one dared to go to the temple, and the pus and blood in it knew at a glance that it must mean the Red Death, and no one wanted to be contaminated.

The monster that had sat up on the altar turned its head, its eyes completely yellow.

Then, the monster attempted to step across the pool of bleeding - this was a bit bigger, and its intestines slid out of its dissected abdominal cavity......

The monster seemed to be a little irritable, and ripped off its own intestines, as if it had torn off some other internal organs, and then stepped straight out of the pool of blood, black pus and blood dripping all over its body.

In just a few steps, the chest and abdomen that had been cut open had become a large black vacancy, but he was still 'alive', and he walked steadily step by step.

"Your Excellency Leon...... I beg you...... Don't hinder me, and ...... Let him get out of here! ”

Kairos also looked at the species that came down from the altar, which was probably no longer considered human, and suddenly turned to Leon and said a word.

"Are you crazy, Kairos? Of course I don't want to deal with you, but that thing is different, it's obviously not human! ”

Leon looked at Kairos with retarded eyes: "Didn't you see that the internal organs of that thing were ripped off by himself?" Could it be that you know this guy? ”

Indeed, it would be too much to say if you let it go after this situation......

"Of course I knew it wasn't human...... I just feel like he doesn't seem to have a consciousness of his own, but it's definitely going to find someone who controls it...... Maybe follow him and find the serpent-worshipping priest! Find my Antonius too! ”

It seems that Kairos is still sensible after all, or rather, he will try anything in order to find and rescue his son.

In fact, Li Ang also thinks that this method may work.

"I really need to get this straight...... Your Excellency Leon, or you can leave this matter alone, I believe you have nothing to do with the Serpent Cult...... Let Kairos find out about it himself. ”

Emperor Marius also nodded at Leon.

Leon felt that His Majesty the Emperor Marius had a big heart, and Kairos had kidnapped him before, and he actually dared to let himself not block Kairos, and let Kairos track him down by himself.

But after hesitating for a moment, he motioned for his men to get out of the way, and watched the monster walk out step by step.

"Kairos, I still have to go to my medical officer, I really don't care about this matter. But I have to tell you something...... I just buried tens of thousands of Serpent worshippers a few days ago...... The Snake Cult army that besieged Emperor Lingang has been wiped out, and I promise that there will be no one left. Perhaps, the person you are looking for has now fled far away, and you may not be able to find anyone if you follow this thing. ”

Leon kindly reminded Keros.

Kairos looked at Leon and nodded, "I have to thank you for what you did...... Actually, I heard about your selfless help to Bacchus the other day......"

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Emperor Marius: "Your Majesty, believe me, in fact, I never thought of murdering you, I just wanted to try the blood of the king that the priest said...... If I can find the priest this time, I will take him and come back to you to confess your sin...... And, Your Majesty, if you want to carry out reforms, you should have been ruthless to get rid of my ...... a long time ago."

With that, Kairos led his troops and followed the monster slowly towards the outside of the village.

Emperor Marius sighed sadly as he watched Keros slowly leave.

"Your Majesty Marius, you're going to let him leave like this?"

Leon looked at Emperor Marius, and there was a deep doubt in his eyes, did he really let Kairos go like this?

"You...... Killed the tens of thousands of army of the Snake Worship Sect? Where is it? ”

Emperor Marius didn't answer, and turned his head to look Li Ang up and down several times, as if he wanted to get acquainted with the lord again.

"In the vicinity of the village of Fidnëne...... Oh, by the way, in order to take out the army of the Serpent Cult, the father and son of the Governor of Levius used their bodies as bait, and unfortunately they all died for the country, and died quite ...... Heroic. ”

Leon pondered it for a moment and changed the adjective to Levius's tragic death.

"I know all too well what kind of person Levius is, and I'm afraid I don't use the word heroic...... Count Leon, I understand that there will definitely be a price to pay for getting rid of the Serpent Cult, and if the price paid by the Empire is only for the Livius father and son, then I should actually thank you even more...... Are you interested in the northern governor of the empire? ”

】

Emperor Marius and Justes were indeed wearing the same pants, and even the rhetoric of wooing was exactly the same......

"Forget it, Your Majesty...... I recently 'captured' Karen Deer Castle, and I will threaten the Bacchus Empire with thousands of troops at Karen Deer Fort in the future...... If you make me governor, you won't be able to account for your people...... Let's go, I'll send you to the city of Knowledge, where General Creon is...... By the way, hopefully the next time we meet will be a little more formal......"

Leon shook his head and beckoned his men to leave.

"Don't send me...... Actually, someone was escorting me all the time. I'm glad that a master like you didn't even notice them...... Sola! ”

Emperor Marius smiled and shook his head, turning his head and shouting behind him.

From several dark corners, several people wearing wolf-headed helmets stood out at the same time: "Your Majesty, the shadow wolves have followed......

Leon's eyes widened, these guys were so hidden, they brought hundreds of people with them, and none of them could find them!

No wonder he let Governor Kairos leave so easily, he had sent someone to follow......

In the same way, it's no wonder that his previous behavior didn't look like a hostage, it turned out that Emperor Marius had such a secret army by his side that had been following him all the time - it was really hard to say who was the one who was kidnapped......

"This is General Sulla, the Shadow Wolf from the Grey Empire. Count Leon, now we are friends, so I will let you see him...... But when we are the enemy, he may always be hiding in the shadows, so be careful. ”

Emperor Marius introduced Sulla to Leon, and General Sulla, apparently not intending to show up, nodded from a distance, and then retreated back into the shadows.

"Your Majesty is really a good means...... By the way, I've seen some of the agents known as 'Vipers' under Governor Justus, and do they have anything to do with General Sula's men? ”

Li Ang shook his head with some emotion, the secret spies of the Bacchus Empire are really complete and varied, and they are indeed more fancy than the kingdoms of the Lion and the Crow.

"Those were some spy personnel trained by the Phantom Wolf Pack, and they were originally intended to deal with the Snake Cult, and someone needed to go undercover to the Snake Cult - so they were called 'Vipers', a nickname that kept them from being exposed in the Snake Cult......"

Emperor Marius replied earnestly, as if he was giving Leon a very sincere suggestion: "Like the Wolves of Shadows, they are warriors who bend to walk in the dark, and perhaps you should build such a team...... If you don't want to be killed by the Lion King or another king......"

"I am a loyal and brave servant of the Lion Kingdom, how could I be killed by my own king...... Ha, Your Majesty, since there is someone to protect you, then I will take my leave......"

Leon shook his head, turned and left.

Emperor Marius was obviously difficult to deal with, and General Sulla's Shadow Wolves were indeed dangerous - a frontal battle might have been able to beat both of them with his own silver hand, but the Shadow Wolves were clearly designed to travel through the shadows, and probably only Risardiran could deal with them.

The lord felt that he had better find Anson as soon as possible, and then go back to Karen Deer Castle to stay, and let Risa Dilan also hurry up and form a shadow army to walk in the hidden places.

……

At this moment, Anson was actually less than twenty miles away from the lord.

There's a reason why Leon didn't find him - Anson was in Lake Sava at this time, in a boat.

It was a small river boat, a wooden boat commonly used by fishermen with pure oar power, only about ten meters long and more than one meter wide.

Anson was also on board with two people, a man and a woman.

The man was unconscious, swollen all over his body, and his face was covered with blue scaly spots.

The woman, dressed in a shabby leather armor and holding a spear in her hand, tested the depth of the lake.
