Chapter 115: I'll just say, if you look so decent, you must be a rebel
The Starry Night Festival is in full swing.
When the royal family's motorcade paraded through the streets...... Well, after the parade, instead of returning to the royal palace, he left the royal city, and traveled seven or eight miles north, and finally arrived at a large open-air school field located outside the city, where various facilities and props for worshipping the gods had already been arranged, just waiting for the arrival of a group of royal family members.
The square covers an area of tens of thousands of square meters, all kinds of ornaments and sacrificial utensils have been neatly arranged, and a group of Praetorian Guards surrounded the square, blocking all the people from the outside, so as not to rush into the square and cause order to get out of control.
Until this time...... The festival began.
King Kailas slowly ascended the high platform full of sacrifices, flanked by twelve pillars engraved with magical runes, symbolizing the constellations of the zodiac, as a sign of the existence of the two gods of the stars and the moon.
More ...... Lin Ling couldn't understand it.
He noticed that in addition to King Kailas, there was also the Star and Moon Holy Maiden of the Star and Moon Temple, who assisted in the sacrifice.
The two of them will cooperate to complete the sacrifice, and after swearing an oath to the two gods of the stars and moon, there are still a series of steps to go, and it will probably take more than half an hour to complete.
It's just that...... The Star-Moon Saintess gave him a very uncomfortable feeling.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Seeming to sense that something was wrong with Lin Ling, Tia Luka turned sideways, tugged at Lin Ling's sleeve, and asked puzzled.
"No, nothing. It's just that there's always a feeling of being ntr, ah......"
Lin Ling, who was watching the movement on the high platform, waved his hand gently: "Keep watching, after reading it, we will have to go to the Xiling Kingdom, it is said that the ruins of the Holy Spirit Mountain are over there." β
The process of sacrificing to the gods was carried out flawlessly, and the people watching outside had actually dispersed a lot, leaving a few of them - they used to be lively, but they may not know anything about the real sacrifice process, and it became boring in their eyes.
It's like the people of the Celestial Empire on Earth are basically interested in the Spring Festival holiday, but for the Spring Festival, except for a few unchanged customs, there is a full set of traditions...... There are really few people who are interested.
"You kid won't want to do anything bad again, right?" Ai Xuehu beside her looked at Lin Ling suspiciously, with her understanding of Lin Ling, this young man who was only less than sixteen years old had indeed done it...... Well, anything, whether it's in or outside your lower limit.
"Ai Xue, I'm so sad, you actually see me like this?" Lin Ling made a heartbroken expression, "How could I want to do something bad? I just want to get the sacrifice on it and give that king some medicine by the way." β
"And you didn't say that you did a bad thing! Obviously, the whole festival was ruined by you!!!" Ai Xue complained loudly, "Don't make trouble! What you bastard did that night really scared the old lady to death, you know?!"
β...... Tsk, it's boring. Lin Ling pursed his lips.
"Don't make a 'I'm sorry' expression!" Ai Xue quickly suppressed the urge to cut people, "Please, you have a little self-consciousness that you were almost cut a few days ago, okay?"
Lin Ling spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders and didn't care: "Didn't you cut it in the end?" and you must know that in the past few days, the night thieves group has been killed by me in the secret stronghold of the royal capital~"
"Damn!How did you find those strongholds?!"
"Idiot, just let people out and find them...... Wait a minute...... Nima!" Lin Ling suddenly scolded in the middle of speaking, which made Ai Xue stunned for a moment.
"What's wrong? You're having another seizure, and you've forgotten to take your medicine?"
"That person wasn't Shanna. β
"It's not Sister Shanna...... Who's that?"
"Is your woman brains backwards? Lao Tzu wants to know and ask you a ball!"
"You're just braining backwards! The old lady wants to know what you're asking you for!What the hell is going on?!"
"What's going on, that person is not Shanna, but it seems that her ability is really good, if it weren't for the fact that Shanna walked a little heavier than this, even Lao Tzu wouldn't recognize it!"
Ai Xue was shocked inexplicably: "You, you, you, can you hear this?"
"Can't you hear that it's still called an expert-level golden finger?" Lin Ling pursed his lips, and then spent three seconds thinking of the next course of action, "Why don't we go and cut that fake saint!"
"Eh, don't don't!" Ai Xue immediately stopped Lin Ling, "Even if that person is not Shanna, but who knows if it could be Shanna's sister who ran away before and couldn't find her, so she changed a stand-in to replace her?"
Lin Ling took a few steps back and pointed at Ai Xue: "If you make a mistake, I will identify you, the real culprit behind the scenes!"
"I'll go! Don't talk nonsense! When did the old lady become a real murderer!"
"Hey, is there silicone in your bunch of waves?!"
Ai Xue suddenly hugged her chest, and a pair of arms tightly wrapped around her choppy chest: "You, you, what are you looking at at a young age!"
"Boobs!"
"You bastard!"
"That's a good wave. β
"Is there a difference?"
Lin Ling was impatient: "You are very annoying~ The chest is so long, and the brain is not long at all, I said that I want to do it, of course, because the imposter has a very unhappy breath on his body~"
"What breath?"
"You'll find out if you look at it. β
After speaking, Lin Ling ignored Ai Xue's obstruction and disappeared directly in place.
And the rest of the people who were watching at the scene, no one noticed Lin Ling's departure, although there were many fewer people watching, but there were still not many people paying attention to the departure of one person, even if they swept it, they were at most dazzled by themselves.
At this moment, the sacrificial work on the high platform has been carried out to the most critical point.
The king held up a golden scroll and unfolded it, and the Holy Maiden of the Star and Moon on one side had already made a pious prayer gesture and slowly knelt down.
Suddenly, a faint light suddenly lit up in the air, and the next moment, a blood line suddenly appeared on the neck of the false Star Moon Holy Maiden!
Then, the chanting in her mouth suddenly stopped.
In everyone's surprised eyes, her revelation slowly slipped down from the blood line!
"This ......"
Ai Xue was already stunned, although she knew that Lin Ling wanted to expose the true face of the fake Star Moon Holy Maiden, but there was no need to kill the other party like this?
Damn, what the hell is this bastard thinking!
It's just that Lin Ling didn't appear, so Ai Xue couldn't look for it, only knowing that Tialouka, Yoshina, and Frost Moon around her had all disappeared, and it was obvious that they were summoned by Lin Ling.
"It's strange...... she was stunned for a moment, "Sister Xiaoya's form is a holy sword, but what are the bodies of Frost Moon and Yohina? One attacks by sound, is it a phonograph stone? This can be considered a weapon? And Yohina often attacks like ice magic...... Is there any artifact that can achieve this effect?"
Shaking her head and throwing all sorts of strange thoughts out of her mind, she stared at everything that was changing in the scene, not continuing to think nonsense.
The fake Star Moon Saintess's face also showed an obviously stunned expression, obviously not expecting that she would be directly cut off by someone, until the whole head slipped down, a pair of small mouths were still wide open.
Blood, rising to the sky, spilled on the spot.
King Kailas, the surrounding guards, and the people were stunned.
After a while, I don't know who was the first to scream, and then, all kinds of screams rang out violently throughout the field.
Most of the people below are ordinary people, and they belong to the kind that has never seen blood, and when they saw a large amount of blood sprayed out as if they didn't want money, they finally panicked.
"Guards!
Kailas's face was extremely ugly, not only did this kind of thing happen at the Starry Night Festival he presided over, but more importantly, ...... It was the Holy Maiden of the Star and Moon Temple who died!
He didn't even have the heart to think about why the Star Moon Holy Maiden, who was not strong in cultivation, but also had a level five or six cultivation, was actually killed by people without any resistance at once, but he knew that the Star Moon Temple would definitely find him trouble next.
"Your Majesty. A guard from the square came to the king and knelt down on one knee and saluted, "Your Majesty may command." β
Kailas took a deep breath, "Be sure to find out before tonight!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Also, you should know how to calm down the turmoil here. β
"Yes!" the guards retreated, and Kairaz took a deep breath again, looking at the Starry Night Festival, which had been completely messed up, and the surrounding crowd, his heart was complicated.
At this moment, among the chaotic people, they still didn't know who shouted: "Look, it's an airship!"
In the sky, the dozens of airships that had hovered over the royal capital before were divided into six, and they quickly approached the sacrificial square.
Kairas's heart fluttered for a momentβhe hadn't ordered the airship to be dispatched.
Then, the six airships came at a high speed, braking urgently over the square, and a surging wave of magic power spread.
In a burst of magic fluctuations that could be sensed by anyone who was a cultivator, a huge six-pointed star magic array appeared on the six airships.
As soon as the light of the magic array appeared, it enveloped the entire square, and even made many people's faces change drastically!
Because all cultivators could clearly feel that the energy in their body, whether it was Dou Qi or magic power, seemed to have turned into a pool of stagnant water or even a piece of solid ice at this moment, and it was completely unusable!
"I'm ......" Ai Xue burst into a foul mouth, dumbfounded, "This can't be Lin Ling's kid who made it, right?! This is too exaggerated! Is this what kind of forbidden magic array is?!"
The so-called forbidden magic array is actually a very high-end, but not uncommon magic array.
This kind of magic array uses the so-called energy rejection principle, which can prohibit all units in the magic array from using energy when it is in effect, even if you are a ninth-level master, you have to be an ordinary person with better physical fitness when you come to the forbidden magic array.
However, in the next moment, she ruled out Lin Ling's idea of doing it - no matter how much Lin Ling could toss, the things he made were limited to the goal of 'monomer', and he wanted to make such a big scene at the same time...... Unless Lin Ling told her now that he was actually a supreme master who had hidden his strength, it would be quite possible.
There was such a big movement here, but Lin Ling still didn't appear, which made Ai Xue worry about the current situation, but it was inevitable that she would be a little entangled.
"What the hell is going on......
β
Almost at the same time.
Lin Ling held the dagger in both hands, looking ahead in a daze, the holy sword that Tiaruka turned into hung above his head, and the sword qi was uncertain.
Yohana transformed back into the form of the Elemental True Body's Ice Breath, surrounding Lin Zero, like a frost shield for the Auto-Protector.
Frost Moon, on the other hand, is tense all over her body, on high alert, with her small mouth slightly open, ready to send out a deadly sonic impact.
"Hehe, Your Excellency Lin Ling, you don't have to be so nervous. β
The surroundings are not the Starry Night King's capital, nor the city of Roch, nor the small town of Mangla, but it is a lush green area with towering trees, reaching to the sky.
The person who spoke was an old man, sitting upright on a wooden chair, with an unfathomable smile on his face, looking at Lin Ling with a smile.
"Tsk, since you don't make me nervous, then you can get me back quickly. Lin Ling grinned and sneered, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Central of the Lost Forest, did you want to soar when you brought Lao Tzu here, Lord Bilauth?!"
"Hehe, Your Excellency Lin Ling has good eyesight. Duke Bilauth, whose identity was broken by Lin Lingdian, didn't care at all, "Your existence is too dangerous. Just like your master, if you are a teammate, you will be the most unreliable but reliable teammate, if you are an enemy...... You will be the most terrifying enemy.
In the decaying plan, the biggest variable is not the ancestor of the Starry Night Royal Family, but you, Your Excellency Lin Ling!
So, after the old man's action begins, please enjoy the scenery with this old clone in the Lost Forest until the end!"
"What did you do?" Lin Ling raised his eyebrows.
Bilout replied with a smile, "Of course, it is a big event that can change the entire Starry Night Kingdom. β
"For example, turn all the female surnames of the whole country into Lori? Another example is to turn all the men of the country into sisters? Another example, because of your own incompetence, you will be angry with the world, and you want to sterilize everyone, so that the Starry Night Kingdom will become a veritable surname Ye Kingdom?!"
"Your Excellency Lin Ling, you are really joking. Billaut paused for a moment, and then continued, "How could the old man have done such a great thing for the sake of such inferior and inferior wishes?"
"Inferior and low?" Lin Ling smiled meaningfully, "It seems that the sages in the eyes of the common people are nothing more than this?
At the same time, Lin Ling continued to try to break through the invisible barrier around him, but he failed.
Not to mention that his attack couldn't break through that layer of invisible barrier, even Tiaruka's spatial teleportation, which had always been invincible, was useless at this moment.
As soon as he entered the spatial teleportation, he fell out again in the blink of an eye, and the teleportation was interrupted instantly.
"Your Excellency Lin Ling, you don't have to work in vain. Bilout smiled, "The Chaotic Sky Magic Array and the Sealed Sky Magic Array are arranged here by the decay, and they are their own spatial system, and even the teleportation will be interfered with and invalidated, and it is impossible for Your Excellency to leave." Even the old ancestor of the Starry Night Kingdom who was about to break through to the Star Rank was suppressed by the old decay, although you are weird and changeable, but your strength is still not enough,"
Then, seeing that Lin Ling didn't seem to be giving up, he continued to speak: "Your Excellency Lin Ling, I won't say anything about your whereabouts with your master before. Since you left Mangla this year, right?
Obtain the mysterious artifact Tialouka in Mangla, repel the Night Thieves squad, go to Loch City, meet the city lord Roy, and then get involved in the Frost Calamity and the Psychic Hell incident, with Yohina and Frost Moon by his side, and then solve the hijacking incident of Sword Art Online - almost, right?"
Lin Ling couldn't help but frown: "You investigate me?"
"No, no, no, it's just about getting a better understanding of potential enemy information. Bilout waved his hand, "In fact, the old man just wants His Excellency Lin Ling to die, whether it is the ice ability or the voice ability of the two people around you, the old man is ready to restrain him, you just need to wait until the Starry Night Royal Family changes the day." β
"Oh, you're going to rebel?"
"No, it's just taking back something that's supposed to be old. Duke Bilout had space props, and at this moment he took out a set of tables and chairs and a set of tea sets, "Your Excellency Lin Ling, why don't you make it and drink some tea and listen to a story told by the old man?"
"Your second spring?"
β
In the southeast of the Star Moon Continent, there are twelve kingdoms here, and there are even more principalities and small states.
Hundreds of years ago, two brothers appeared in this land, and the two brothers entered the army, worked hard all the way, fought bloody battles, and finally were beaten down by the two to a huge kingdom.
One of the two brothers accepted the feud from the empire and became king, while the other became the duke, and the thirteenth kingdom was rising, and everything seemed to be good.
It's just that the man who became the king began to become obsessed with the power in his hands, and began to be suspicious of the supreme duke, his former brother.
Outcome...... Go without saying.
The betrayed Duke finally broke his family, and only one of his clansmen escaped, went into hiding, and passed on the hatred from generation to generation incognito, until now.
......
Bilaut spoke slowly, with emotion in his eyes: "That duke's surname is ...... Bilauert. β
Opposite him, Lin Ling, who knew that he couldn't leave for the time being, had also sat down and listened to him finish this long story.
"And then?" said Lin Ling.
Bilaut was stunned, then shook his head and said, "And then ...... The old decay is here today. β
"The story is well told. Lin Ling shook his head, "It's a pity it's too boring." (To be continued.) )
