Chapter 488: White-scaled Dragon!
The person in charge of the Wang Cheng of the History and Ritual Association instantly retreated dozens of meters, returned to the members of his own association, pounced, knelt on one knee, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The main priesthood of the Star Sect led by the Silver Dragon Witch Blaitze, the nuns of the Moon Church led by the head servant of the god Serma, the Hailing Regiment, and the Mad Sect all frowned and stared at Eberhard with a face full of pain.
What's going on?
Most of them couldn't see the clue, and it was clear that Jakespet didn't touch him, but Eberhard screamed at the same time as Houston as if he had a sudden illness.
"Damn...... Damn it! It's a mythical power of the Damage Link!"
Alberhard didn't expect that he would be quietly tricked, and in front of so many powerhouses of the same level, he would suffer the loss of a newly promoted saint.
He slowly stood up and looked at his chest in horror.
Four symmetrical, fist-sized holes are impressive!
It's like ...... Bitten by a giant snake!
But this is not the root cause of everyone's solemnity, but on the wound, the blood flowing out has long since congealed, occupied by white crystals as bright as diamonds, and it is still spreading at a speed visible to the naked eye!
It seems to cover Eberhard's whole person!
"This is mythical pollution?!"
Blaise, the Silver Dragon Witch, was surprised.
Then He shook his head and denied himself.
"Impossible...... Eberhard is also a Sequence Four Sage, and his own mystical resistance is extremely strong, and the strength of the same level can't do this!"
"It is an active tissue with a high concentration of energy......
On the side, the knowledgeable old man of the madman school, Hernandez spoke in a deep voice and expressed his opinion.
"Scholar Hernandez, do you recognize what this is?"
Blaise asked with a frown.
The rest of the high-ranking people cast their eyes one after another.
However, the emaciated old man shook his head and sighed.
"I haven't seen it...... But this kind of crystallization is quite terrifying, and such a degree of corrosiveness is unheard of, and once it is contaminated, it is probably extremely difficult to deal with."
Hearing his evaluation, the high-ranking people present took a deep breath, and the eyes that looked at the black-hatted young man instantly became more cautious.
If at first, they were only slightly surprised by the new young sage, then with the fall of Houston, they became real surprise. Now, seeing Eberhard's tragic situation, they even have a sense of absurdity in their hearts.
I really don't want to have a bad relationship with him unless I have to......
Rushing!
Eberhard's face was gloomy.
The space around him resounded with the sound of the pages turning, and the outline of his body was like a grotesque phantom withdrawn, constantly regressing.
Airplanes!
When the silhouette returned, Eberhard seemed to have found himself ten minutes ago, overlapping with the state he was in at that time.
However......
Eberhard's pupils shrank.
The four tooth marks on His chest were gone, but the beautiful white crystals, like the handprints of death, had crawled all over His chest!
"I'm afraid Alberhard is *** annoying."
Hernandez lifted his glasses and said in a deep voice.
Even if the old man doesn't say it, all the high-ranking people can see it.
Alberhard tried his best to make the power of the myth overflow, but the white crystals were still like maggots on tarsal bones, "multiplying and spreading". They seemed to have devoured Alberhard's power and appeared stronger, while his face became more and more pale.
Bang ......
A steady rhythmic pace came.
Everyone turned their heads to see that the black-hatted young man had returned to his original form, and walked over with a silver cane.
He smiled, took off his hat and saluted everyone, said hello, and then looked at Alberhard slowly, and said lightly:
「
My relationship with Houston is a personal vendetta or a conflict within the Generous Council, and outsiders have no right to interfere...... I'm sorry, President Eberhard, but I didn't expect it to affect you."
Chen Lun looked at Eberhard's weak appearance, and had a clear understanding of the strength of the "crystal cell" in his heart, and his mood was particularly comfortable.
With his mythical creature trait "Destiny Man", Eberhard had no resistance to the battle over the mysterious weight, and was instantly implicated by [Mythical Magic: Common Reaction] and parasitized by "crystal cells".
But he didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he held out a hand to Eberhard.
The latter raised his head with difficulty, the expression on his face changed, and finally squeezed out a smile and shook hands with Chen Lun.
"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry, Your Majesty Jack Pett."
"It's okay, it's settled, isn't it?"
Chen Lun chuckled.
Alberhard tried to nod, but found that his neck had become extremely stiff, and there was a terrible clicking sound under the force.
"When...... Absolutely."
He said with difficulty.
Chen Lun glanced at the president meaningfully.
呲呲......
The sound of a snake spitting quietly rose, and the white crystals that spread all over Eberhard's body began to shrink until they disappeared.
Seeing this, Eberhard breathed a sigh of relief, and a deep fear flashed in his eyes.
How much else is this guy hiding......
Letting go of his hand, Chen Lun took the time to look at the prompt that popped up before the panel, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
[Kill Houston, the Governor of the Generous Council!] Earn 200 XP, 1 Blessing and 20 Regional Popularity! 】
[Accumulated 188 regional singing points!] Gain 1 Epic Popularity again! (Current epic popularity: 6 points)]
[Epic Singing Degree Event Impact: The news that you killed the conspiracy sage Houston in a solo battle will gradually spread to all parts of the Trisur Empire centered on the Intramuros area - the name of the new sage "White Scale Dragon" Jakespeter will resound in the mysterious realm!] 】
Unfortunately, Houston's corpse was shredded by the 'Strings of Mourning, and the remnants were broken down into five high-level conspiracy substances......
Chen Lun shook his head secretly.
'I remember that when I was promoted to [Sequence 5 - Juggler] before, I also killed two Sage Incarnations of the Rotif family and took two copies...... Now there are seven of them, and when the time comes, I'll hand them all over to the Speaker. ,
No matter how you say that you killed your colleagues in the Senate, when the speaker returns, he will have to explain something before he can be justified.
Chen Lun pinched his temples with a headache.

Intramuroline Kloster.
The Palace of the Sun, the royal chamber.
At this moment, the huge conference table was empty, except for Prince Dazlet, who was sitting on the main seat, and only a few presiding judges of the Imperial Inquisition were sitting on the left hand side, all of them in military uniforms, and their eyes did not squint. On the right-hand side are the three Archbishops of the Church of the Sun, led by Terrence, who are also silent with straight faces.
The rest of the seats were empty.
The scene was dead and silent for a while, and even contained a little embarrassment.
The chief steward, Babaye, was standing on the sidelines, wiping a cold sweat, glancing at the gate from time to time, but always disappointed.
Prince Dazlet's face was expressionless, but there was anger in his eyes. He knocked on the table and asked in a deep voice:
"Babaye, I want to know that the Church of the Seven has nothing but Terrence crowning them...... Why didn't one of the rest come? Is this putting pressure on me?!"
"Absolutely not! Your Highness!"
Babaye hurriedly approached and bent down to comfort him.
"Maybe there was some accident and the church leaders were delayed on the road...... Why don't I go and see?"
The prince took a deep breath and was about to speak when the door to the chamber was slowly pushed open.
The upper echelons of the Church of the Seven
Remaining silent, he walked in one after another, as if he had made an appointment, and the situation was quite weird.
The prince squinted at the scene and sneered.
Only Judge McCollin and Archbishop Terrence seemed to sense something, and their eyes glanced at the lone black-hatted young man in the crowd, revealing a thoughtful expression.
When everyone was seated, the prince glanced around and asked:
"Guys, can you explain to me that you're almost twenty minutes late together? And now you're coming to the meeting at the same time?"
「……」
None of the people present spoke.
Prince Dazlet noticed the indifferent gaze from the Cult of the Stars and the Church of the Moon, and a faint bruise appeared on his forehead.
He turned his head to look at the chair of the History and Ritual Society.
"President Eberhard, tell me about it?"
"Uh-huh......
Eberhard stopped turning his pen and groaned.
He quietly glanced at the black-hatted young man on the other side of the conference table, coughed and said:
"Your Highness, there was a little accident on the way."
Dazlet was silent for a few seconds.
"What little accident?"
"Houston Archon of the Generous Council...... There was a conflict with the Archon Jakespet, and they fought in the spirit realm."
Alberhard said in a deep voice.
The prince frowned, and then he noticed that Jack was the only one sitting upright in the Generous Council, and Houston was nowhere to be seen.
He took a deep breath, his eyes full of bewilderment.
"Two fighting?"
What is there to fight between a high-ranking person and a mid-sequence transcendent?
Even if Jack's strength is good enough to defeat the Sage Incarnation, Houston is not the only one present...... Jack didn't get taught a hard lesson, and now he's sitting there like a nobody?!
"Speak clearly!"
The prince was impatient.
Eberhard sighed.
"The Houston Archon is dead."
"Huh?!"
The prince's eyes widened suddenly, and he froze.
Even the presiding judge and Terrence and others from the Sun Church on the side all showed surprised expressions.
"What do you say...... Houston is dead?!"
The prince's brow furrowed even deeper.
Alberhard bowed his head lightly and said in a cautious tone:
"Jack killed the Houston Archon on the spot......
「?!」
The prince stood up suddenly.
The high-backed chair rubs against the ground and makes a high-pitched sound.
The faces of the presiding judge and the other Sun Archbishops suddenly changed slightly, as they heard Eberhard's honorifics, and addressed Jakespeter as ...... Under the crown?!
"You're promoted? Jack?"
The prince said in disbelief.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Chen Lun also took off his hat, got up slowly, and said with a smile.
"Now it's up to me to come forward and participate in this meeting of yours."
