Chapter 463: Light Descent

The accident happened too suddenly, no more than a second between the warning from the spiritual intuition and the arrival of the attack, which meant that the enemy seemed to have premeditated and somehow shielded the mysterious sense.

Even with Chen Lun's weight and full-level spiritual intuition, it has been greatly weakened.

In desperation, he knew that the priority was to ensure the prince's safety, so he lifted his trench coat and coat like a black steel curtain, fending off the shattered wood chips and metal fragments around him, as well as the powerful shock wave.

Puff puff......

The muffled sound continued.

But just when Chen Lun wanted to raise his hand to grab the prince's arm and use teleportation to escape with the other party, a dazzling golden light exploded, and the powerful thrust accompanied by the high temperature burned him, instantly blasting him away!

呲呲......

Chen Lun stuck his silver cane into the ground and tried his best to maintain his balance, but he was still pushed backwards by the shock wave for a distance and slid for dozens of meters.

Residual green smoke rose from his body, making him frown. Fortunately, he has [Hell Resistance] and is extremely immune to high temperatures, but fortunately he was not injured.

Looking up, Chen Lun couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw that the road next to the Fire Emblem Square was already in chaos, and the crowd and passing carriages fled one after another, and many imperial guards patrolling nearby rushed to hear the news.

In the middle of the road, the wreckage of the carriage and the corpses of four horses were burning with fire. Prince Dazlet stood calmly in place, surrounded by five tall figures shrouded in golden armor.

The top of the helmets of these five people is half a meter long, decorated with the white feathers of an unknown bird, and the white cloak behind them is hunting, and the face of the sun symbolizing the royal family is tattooed on it, and each of them holds a dazzling long sword composed of light, and his body exudes a terrifying momentum all the time.

'Mythical Strength...... These are the five Sun Sages! ’

Chen Lun was secretly frightened.

Although he knew that the prince would definitely be strongly guarded by his side, he did not expect that it would be the five sages...... With such a terrifying level of protection, who in the royal city could kill him?!

Confronting the prince at this moment was a group of men and women dressed in cheap linen shirts, numbering twelve in all, each of whom was covered in light and had a solemn and hateful face.

'These assassins are all Solar System Sequence Five Transcendents [Children of Light]......

Chen Lun's eyes froze.

Through the voyeuristic investigation, he immediately learned the information of these people.

At the same time, he also noticed that on the back of each Assassin's right hand, there appeared to be a tattoo of a black sun.

That pattern is the status symbol of the 'Light Descendant' in the Land of Matthew...... These people are all from the underground, and they are all members of the Suncross Society! ’

Chen Lun thought of the information he had received from Queen Kaplan, and instantly connected the information.

He was guessing the purpose of the men's plan to attack the prince, when the battle suddenly began, and he heard a crisp clang, and a wave of heat suddenly rushed into his face.

Rumble!

But among the five high-ranking knights guarding the prince, the figure of one of them turned into a golden light, suddenly moved sideways to the attackers, and directly slashed a sword.

This sword slashed with terrifying power, like a mountain and a sea. The golden sword slashed, sending out an ear-piercing scream and igniting the air, creating a terrifying wave of fire.

At the same time, the surrounding environment distorted and fluctuated, as if the picture was covered with a layer of blue frosted glass, blurred...... This stemmed from the high-ranking knight beside the other prince, who raised his hand and emitted a hazy light, dragging the battlefield directly into the shallow depths of the spirit realm.

Airplanes!!

The waves of fire were like ripples after falling stones in a lake, wave after wave, even layered, and instantly swept over the bodies of several assassins.

Their faces suddenly changed drastically, and they wanted to use their sequence ability to turn into light to dodge, but the fire wave had already pounced, and the four assassins were directly incinerated into ashes in the fire wave, and they didn't even have time to scream.

Seeing this, the remaining Assassins seemed to know that they had no way to escape, and immediately planned to give it a go...... I saw eight men and women spread their arms and raise their heads slightly, their expressions fanatical and a little sad.

"Dazlet Trisur! Back then, you turned your back on your brother in order to win the favor of the Sun King, and now you are reckless, making a series of inhumane human experiments in the occupied area, just to complete the so-called 'Light Seed Project'...... The Empire of the Sun and the entire continent will be repeated like the 'Catastrophe of the Earth' 4,000 years ago, and the world will fall into the Dark Ages because of you! ”

One of the Light Descendants shouted hysterically.

Buzz Buzz......

One by one, their bodies shone brightly.

"Sun!"

"Sun!!"

They shouted, and pillars of light descended from the sky, enveloping Prince Dazlet, and the five high-ranking knights.

Those pillars of light contained terrifying high-temperature energy, as if they could purify all the evil in the world, from the body to the soul.

"How do sinners, blinded by lust and ignorance, know my great ambition......

The prince's face was calm, indifferent to the falling pillars of light.

And he stood where he was, with his hands on his back.

"Small fluorescence, vain attempt to kill the sun."

A high-ranking knight shrouded in golden armor said indifferently.

He lifted the sword of light.

"Bathe the Holy Guard, punish the enemy for the king."

"Die!"

Beside him, two high-ranking knights stepped forward and swung a sword each.

They slashed out a terrifying sword that shook the space, and the flames seemed to fill the entire line of sight, and two blazing waves of golden qi crossed and pushed horizontally, instantly shattering and fusing those pillars of light, turning into a shockwave that ran over the remaining eight assassins.

Although they were dozens of meters apart, Chen Lun still felt a scorching pain all over his body, and a burning sensation was all over his body. His eyes were pale gold, dazzling and difficult to breathe, and he couldn't help but use [Spiritual Breath] and [Five Senses] at the same time, so that he could adapt to the mutated environment in time.

It wasn't until he retreated a distance that he felt better, and at the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart that the mythical power of those two Sage-level knights was really a little terrifying.

The slash burned for nearly twenty seconds before this area of the spirit realm slowly returned to its original state...... When Chen Lun came back to his senses, the bones of those assassins were long gone, and Prince Dazlet seemed to have no time to pay attention to Chen Lun, and he was turning his head to tell the five high-ranking knights something, with a solemn expression.

Airplanes!

The surrounding horizon slowly faded to blue, returning to the present world.

The noise and noise resounded in the ears, and the original street had long been blocked by countless imperial guards, and some good onlookers crowded outside, looking curiously here.

When they heard of the attack on the Prince, the residents of the Central District were all concerned, and some of the richly dressed people even cursed the Assassins, which showed that Dazlet had a high prestige among the people.

Chen Lun relieved himself, put on a brand-new trench coat and jacket to cover the burned clothes inside, and straightened his hat before walking towards the prince.

However, he had only taken two steps when a golden light instantly moved horizontally in front of him, and the golden light sword was aimed straight at his throat.

When he raised his head, he could only see the closed face armor of the Golden Armor Knight, as if in those holes, a pair of indifferent eyes were looking down on him.

"Stop, or die."

Chen Lun's eyes narrowed, and he immediately knew that these high-ranking knights had included him among the assassin suspects...... After all, the prince was in the same carriage with him before the attack, and it is difficult not to wonder if he was also involved in the assassination.

However, at this moment, a voice came from behind the high-ranking knight:

"Let him come, Jack can't be an assassin."

The high-ranking knight immediately withdrew the sword of light, and with a buzz, the long sword turned into a golden point of light and dissipated. His straight figure slowly turned, and he stroked his chest and bowed his head.

Chen Lun's face remained calm, and he walked past the knight and came to the prince.

Behind the prince, the other four knights in gold remained silent, standing still like tall statues.

"I didn't expect such a small episode to disturb our pleasant conversation......"

Prince Dazlet chuckled, seemingly unconcerned about Fang Cai's assassination.

He gently patted Chen Lun's shoulder and said approvingly:

"Although the accident came suddenly, I can see it clearly, and I am very happy that you can think of protecting my safety in the first place."

"As a member of the Imperial Inquisition, this is my duty."

Chen Lun lowered his head and said.

"We have just experienced life and death, so we don't have to talk to me in the voice of our subordinates for the time being...... The carriage has been wrecked and you can't be taken back to the Generous Church District, so I'll let two 'Bathing Guards' accompany you. ”

The prince said as if he were talking to a friend.

Chen Lun glanced at the four golden-armored knights behind him, and secretly said in his heart, it turned out that this kind of sage-level knight who personally protected the prince was called the Bath Light Holy Guard.

The heritage of the royal family is really extraordinary.

He shook his head and declined the prince's offer.

"No need, Your Highness the Prince, this is not far from the Church of Generosity, I'll just go back myself."

Seeing this, the prince did not force it, but bowed his head slightly.

Chen Lun saluted Dazlet again and immediately took his leave.

It's just that when he crossed the encirclement of layers of imperial guards and came to the outer road, he suddenly noticed something, and suddenly turned his head to look in one direction.

In the crowd, a middle-aged bald man who was watching, his originally angry expression froze, his eyes changed slightly, and he immediately closed his mouth and turned around to leave silently.

It's just that in the process, the man seemed to notice that someone was secretly watching, and he also turned his head and glanced at Chen Lun.

The other party was obviously surprised, and there was even a hint of panic in his eyes, but he hid it well, looked away, and continued to leave as if nothing had happened.

Chen Lun's heart was a little stunned.

The reason why he looked at this man was because of his destiny ability...... At that moment just now, he clearly noticed that in the crowd around him, there was a person's fate that suddenly changed drastically, and this change was quite strange, like a certain life trajectory suddenly took a 180-degree turn.

He has been able to preliminarily interpret the trajectory of fate, and he knows that this level of turning is tantamount to this person dying on the spot, and then resurrecting in an instant, completing the sublimation like nirvana......

However, the man was just an ordinary person.

This is very treacherous.

Thinking of the assassination incident that happened just now, Chen Lun suddenly gave birth to a reasonable speculation:

Maybe the twelve assassins just now didn't all die...... One of them used some means to escape the mortal situation by resurrecting the body of the onlookers. ’

Chen Lun wasn't sure of this speculation, but he still left it to his heart.

The finger behind him moved slightly, and an index finger disappeared out of thin air, and a pale scale gloss flashed at the back of the neck of the bald man who walked away quickly.

He planted a "snake parasite" on the other party's body.

Chen Lun was ready to test it and make plans again. If you guess wrong, then let the snake parasitize and self-destruct, no one knows anyway, and if you bet right, it will be a great credit.

With this done, he calmly clubbed his silver cane and walked slowly along the side of the road back to the Generous Church district.

Night.

Chen Lun had dinner with his men, listened to Alex play a song, and walked with Floy in the square of the church district.

The two were bathed in the faint moonlight, and the atmosphere was quiet and warm.

"I'm sorry, Floy, but I've been a bit busy and haven't been able to find time to spend with you."

"No apologies, my lord."

Floy smiled slightly, and said solemnly in an affectionate tone. She raised her hand to brush a strand of pale blonde hair that had been blown away by the breeze behind her ear, turned her head, and stared at Chen Lun quietly with those beautiful lilac eyes.

"I know you're doing all this for the sake of a peaceful day."

She plucked up the courage to get closer, and put her arms around the man she loved. Floy was a little distracted, and after a while she asked:

"Can we live a peaceful life?"

"Of course."

Chen Lun chuckled.

"I promised you that I would take you to a beautiful scenery that you have never seen before, and at that time, it should be just the two of us, and there should be no one else, and nothing else to disturb."

"Hmm."

Floy raised her eyes to meet him, the corners of her mouth overflowing with joy.

The two walked quietly through the square, and in the distance, only the black crystal puppet wearing a huge black cloak and the black cat of the Black Cat Samurai Team were patrolling silently.

The black crystal puppet turned a blind eye to the two people in the square, and only the black cats would stop at a distance and salute silently.

"Do you still have that weird dream lately?"

Chen Lun suddenly asked.

He had just asked casually, but Floy nodded slightly.

"It had been a long time since I had dreamed, but I had reappeared two days ago, and it was still dark in the dream, and the familiar voice was repeating the words again...... Tell me not to go any further. ”

Chen Lun's expression became solemn.

He could now almost confirm that the dream was important to Floy, maybe it was Lady Silence...... That is, some kind of warning from Margaret, the goddess of the moon.

What do you mean by not going any further? ’

Just as he was thinking, Chen Lun suddenly stopped.

Floy on the side was a little puzzled.

"Someone came to visit ......"

Chen Lun said softly.

His eyes flashed solemnly, because just now, the snake he had planted during the day was parasitic, and the contact was suddenly severed...... At the same time, a horse-drawn carriage drove into the Generous Church district.

"Is it the enemy?"

Floy's eyes became fierce, and the tenderness on her face faded.

"Not sure yet."

Chen Lun replied.

"But soon I know, you go and inform the others, but don't make a big fuss, wait until you meet me alone with this guest who came to visit at night."

Floy snorted and obediently turned away.

Chen Lun straightened his hat and walked towards the gate with a silver cane.
