Volume 1 The Road to Rise Chapter 048 Nock After Disappearing
When Lady Moon went to work with red makeup, the queen had to go down to the salvage team to close the team.
She returned to the palace in despair, and without even dinner, she locked herself in her bedchamber alone.
Even the Queen's most trusted head maid, Yulia Kent, did not dare to disturb her at such a time.
Yulia stood in front of the herald and conveyed her order: "The order is to go down and have someone go to the port to dispatch a professional salvage team, so that they can come over tomorrow during the day to carry out the salvage." Be sure to recover Father Lane's body. Got it! ”
"Yes! Ms. Kent! ”
The heralds were ordered to leave, and the night they called for the gates of the city to be opened, and hurried to the seaport to the east.
"Butler Abok!"
"I'm here, Ms. Kent."
"From now on, the palace rejects all visitors. The queen did not see the guests for three days, and any arrangements were postponed. Emergencies can be handed in by you, and I can only submit them to the queen after my judgment, understand! ”
"Got it, sure ma'am!"
After receiving the order, the butler of Abok led the people to the palace gate, and tonight, he was estimated to be on duty there.
It stands to reason that the position of a housekeeper is higher than that of a maid.
He could have disobeyed Yuria's orders.
But Yulia Kent is not just the head maid, she is also the queen's confidant, and the countess of the kingdom with fiefs and armed forces.
Speaking of her title, it's dramatic enough.
As the eldest daughter of the Kent family, Yulia was originally unable to inherit the title, but instead wanted to consolidate the family's power and marry other noble families.
But she fled overnight because she didn't want to marry, and by mistake became the maid of Princess Elizabeth when she was young.
Since then, he has stayed with Elizabeth Tudor for more than thirty years.
But more than ten years ago, the princess ascended the throne and became the queen, and she also followed the rising tide, so she naturally wanted to return home.
Unexpectedly, she found that all the people in her family were killed by the family of her escape partner, and even seized the assets of the Kent family, as well as the Kent family's territory, Kent Province.
Enraged, Yulia used the Queen's warrant to mobilize all the neighboring lords around Kent Province to encircle and suppress the enemies who occupied Kent.
She even killed the man who claimed to be her husband and occupied the Kent family.
In the end, he carried the man's head and led the transferred army to flatten the man's family, and divided the family's assets and territory among the various nobles who came to support.
Later, the queen found out about this, and instead of blaming Yulia for using her warrant privately, she also ordered that Yulia Kent inherit the title of the Kent family and become a young countess.
At that time, Yulia could be said to be one of the most popular marriage partners in aristocratic circles.
Unfortunately, the countess was disappointed in her marriage and adopted only one child as an heir to the estate in the province of Kent, while she herself continued to serve as the queen's head maid.
Over the years, she has solved problems for the queen, and the private army in her territory is not so much the private army of the Kent family as the queen's private army!
According to the results of the nobles' investigation, the province of Kent, the mysterious cavalry that nominally belonged to the House of Kent, only obeyed the orders of Yulia Kent.
The grown adopted son of the Kent family could not get close to the cavalry's garrison, let alone order them.
On the contrary, when the queen suppressed the nobles and ministers who opposed her, the shadow of that army often appeared.
Therefore, no one dares to think of Yulia Kent as an ordinary head maid anymore.
Instead, he used her as the queen's knife to the outside world!
A knife that only obeys the queen's orders and has no flaws!
The housekeeper of Abok is aware of this, and he has long been in the right position in terms of identity.
In the royal palace, the queen is the largest, and then the head maid, Lady Kent. And then there are the mighty knights.
In the end, he is the dispensable butler.
Just when the palace began to be on guard and refused visitors.
The children of the monastery were also terrified.
A series of changes in the past two days have made the remaining few people uneasy.
Nock was called away by the Queen, which made them even more worried.
But after the accident, no one in the palace thought of them at all.
Nor could they inquire about the king's house.
They didn't even know that Alan Cowater and Sherlock Holmes had left the palace early and returned home.
Su Lina, who had been lurking by Nock's side for many years as a neighbor, heard the news and brought them dinner, and after accompanying them to dinner, she told them to lock the door before leaving.
Su Lina didn't say much, let alone say anything about the lie that "Nock was left in the palace overnight", which is easy to debunk.
Unbeknownst to outsiders, as a spy who had been secretly monitoring and protecting Nock, Su Lina knew very well that the children in the convent were very smart.
In particular, Collow's slippery head has a cunning that does not match his appearance at all.
Su Lina didn't dare to bet on whether this kid would hear something wrong from his lies, and then see through that he was lying.
Anyway, there was no order from her superiors, so she just continued to be the proprietress of her bakery, and there was no need to take such a risk that would reveal her identity.
The moat of the palace was not salvaged to Nock, and he did not return to the monastery.
So where is Nock at this time?
Did he really die at the bottom of the river?
Of course not.
At this time, Nok was lying in a forest in the city.
And this wood, when he woke up, Nock found that he was still a little familiar.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Nock, who wanted to get up from the ground, was affected by the injuries on his body, and the pain in his chest made him cough.
"Don't move, you've broken a few ribs. I'd like to help you heal, but I'm sorry, but I'm sorry I can't do it right now. ”
A somewhat shrill voice sounded behind Nock, stopping him from doing so.
Nock couldn't help but be surprised: "Who is it?" Who's there! Did you save me? ”
After soaking in the water for a while, his mind was already clear, and he remembered that he was hit by a carriage and flew into the water, so he couldn't help but ask.
The owner of the voice hesitated for a moment and replied, "It's not saved." But the one who fished you out of the moat and brought you here was me. Anyway, if I don't catch you, the palace guards will also fish you up from the river, and you won't drown. ”
The owner of the voice seemed to be a little upright, and although he was telling the truth seriously, Nock felt that it was very unpleasant.
"Oh, thank you anyway. What if I didn't wait for someone else to pick me up, and I drowned? So you saved me anyway. I will repay you. ”
Nock clutched his stinging chest and said as he endured the pain.
After hearing this, the owner of the voice gave up arguing with Nock.
"Whatever you want. I came to you because I wanted your help, but for now, it seems that you should help yourself first. ”
Nock instantly understood the meaning of the other party's words.
"Excuse me, wait a minute."
Nock whispered a spell: "Healing!" ”
The magic was activated, and Nok was shrouded in white light.
Fortunately, the trees in the woods were full of branches, and this bit of brilliance was not noticed by the outside world under the cover of the woods.
After one treatment, Nock felt like he should be much better.
Immediately try to sit up again.
As a result, there was a "hiss" sound, and Nock gasped, it hurt!
"Healing! Therapeutics"
Nock hurriedly threw two more magic spells at himself.
Although the healing technique was only a second-level divine technique, after three consecutive healing techniques, Nock could already feel that the broken ribs in his body had begun to recover.
Although it still has a faint pain, it no longer hinders his mobility.
He stood up and wanted to thank the "life-saving benefactor" behind him, but when he turned around, there was no figure in front of him except for the trees in the darkness.
"Huh? What about you? Isn't it convenient to come out and meet each other? ”
A hoarse voice rang out from the tree in front of Nock's right, "Are you sure you want to meet me?" I'm afraid that after you see me, you won't want to listen to me, let alone help me. ”
The owner who heard the voice had concerns in his heart, but Nock promised nonchalantly, "No! I, Nock Lane, swear to the Lord that I am not ungrateful. ”
Nock's assurances seemed to convince the owner of the voice.
"Then don't regret it! I came down. ”
"Boom!" A dark shadow leapt down from the tree and slammed into the ground.
With the moonlight cast through the cracks in the trees, Nock's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the figure on the ground.
The familiar scarlet eyes, the large jaws and fangs looming in the darkness, the tall body, the strong claws and a restless flicking tail.
Isn't this a monster killer [Ripper]!
"How could it be you!"
Nock exclaimed, couldn't help but take a step back, and assumed a fighting stance.
The [Ripper], who didn't plan to fight Nok, hurriedly shouted, "Stop! Stop! Stop! I'm not here to trouble you! I've said it all, I'm here for your help! You can't go back! ”
Seeing that the other party did have the intention to talk, Nock pressed the restless battle intent.
He looked at [the Ripper] warily, "I don't think I have anything to talk about with a murderer. ”
[The Ripper] squeezed out a wry smile with his hideous face, and sighed: "I don't want to be a murderer either!" If I say that I was controlled before, I don't know if you believe it or not? ”
Nock sneered: "In just two months, you killed nearly 40 people, and now you tell me that you are innocent?" Do you believe that you think it would be me? ”
[The Ripper] was silent for a while, and said in a ashamed tone: "I also know that I am not innocent, I killed people, but the killing was not out of my intention. Except on the night of the full moon, I simply couldn't retain consciousness in this form. ”
[The Ripper]'s words made Nock hear something different, and he immediately asked.
"You say this form? It's hard to be, it's not who you are! ”
