Uh, didn't finish it, wait a minute......
——
In the hall in front of the emperor's dormitory, it was already a mess at the moment.
Fragments of broken objects were everywhere, and more than 20 corpses were scattered and bleeding...... Everywhere in the eye were the figures of knights, eight large shields surrounded the door of the dormitory, and the remaining dozen knights each raised their weapons, their steps were steady, their breathing was long, and they obviously had the strength to move wherever they were placed, but at this moment, they could only stabilize their positions......
Although their opponents were only four human figures shrouded in gray.
The reason why I use this word to describe it is because these guys with no human appearance are a bunch of monsters in the truest sense of the word-
For example, the one who is surrounded by four knights, but who is still at ease...... His upper body was rolling backwards, as if it had been broken from his waist, and the back of his head almost touched the ground! But when a knight's sword whistled over his body, he flipped forward without hindrance, and the legs squeaked and cracked on the ground, and then he had scurried straight forward to the side of a knight!
He seemed to be soft all over his body, like those low-level jelly monsters...... The so-called rules of sports have no effect on him at all.
But the unlucky knight of the Guard's body stiffened instantly.
After a few breaths, the armor on his body made a soft clicking sound, and his upper body slowly slid down like straw, and then blood and internal organs rolled out as if they were in response...... The rich fishy smell dissipated in an instant. Kaoru is disgusting.
It was the robed guy who caused the injury...... Weapons that extended from his upper limbs, to be precise, were like a combination of a sword and a scimitar, but they were actually the claws or fingers of the humanoid monster. The large, apparently bony claws glowed pale in the dim light, but occasionally a little green light shone from them. It chills to everyone who sees them......
In the next instant, the strange weapon collided with a long sword. The magic sword emitted a poignant scream as if it had been swept into metal. Then it snapped into two! Its owner pulled back, but it was too late, and the monster's other hand waved easily. The helmet's head flew up, drawing a blood-colored arc in the air, and slammed into the shield array in front of the emperor's bedchamber with a thud.
A few drops of blood splattered. Vladimirovich's face, which fell behind the shield wall, was gently wiped away by the handkerchief in his hand, and his gray eyes stared indifferently at the killing in the field.
"No response yet?" said the secret agent. A young knight beside him paused, stroked a blue spar, and then responded, "Yes, my lord, all the teleportation spars have not responded, and the few people who went out to report have not heard back. ”
"It's ironic. The old earl lowered his eyelids and his eyelids moved.
Yes, an emperor was besieged by a group of assassins in his palace. The killer and the emperor are only separated by a wall, which is simply too creative and a little too tragic...... And what is even more sad is that this vicious little joke has already taken two hourglass scales, and there is no end to it.
Fortunately. It's not too far from the end.
The knights' losses were great, but they still took the initiative, and a shadow shrouded in metal was moving forward. Force the opponent in front of you to retreat one after another!
It was a small knight, with dull armor and a weapon that was no more than an ordinary knight's sword. It was decent, but when the long sword was swung, the sound of the wind hanging was so sharp that it was almost impossible to hear...... The residual arc-shaped images left in the air, as well as the frequent sparks after the collision between the two assassins and the knight's sword, made people hold their breath.
Then, there was the sound of noisy footsteps.
The door to the outside finally opened with a muffled bang, and more than a dozen knights rushed in, and behind them, the red-haired figure did not move like a mountain, and when a knight's sword in his hand waved, a dazzling lightning bolt had erupted from the mage behind him, pushing a monster out dozens of feet and slamming into the wall!
The siege became one-on-one, so the blade of the sword in the ordinary-looking knight's hand spun in succession, and immediately pierced the throat of the other monster! And the remaining two monsters moved quickly, and they had already judged the situation in an instant, they curled up without hesitation, and with a flash, they each crashed into the spellcaster, but the numerical advantage was enough to change at this time
"What a bunch of cunning bastards!Are all the shit of the Mage Regiment a bunch of idiots?How can they let in so many assassins?' The red-haired prince let out a curse, and then raised his voice: "Vladimi, you are doing well!
"The gods bless, Your Majesty is well. ”
"Very well, Vladimi, you deserve the best reward for your loyalty...... the prince swept his gaze across the hall, and snorted coldly, "But for now, I still need to rely on your strength, and the responsibility of guarding Your Majesty is up to me, you can leave here and track down the masterminds behind these assassins." This group of damn juniors was able to break into here, and the alarm circle didn't work, and I suspect that the mage group has been infiltrated...... So I'm going to ask Your Majesty to do a thorough review of these guys. ”
"Your Highness is wise. The leader of the secret agent lowered his head slightly, and his voice remained unchanged: "But I am very sorry, Your Highness, your request, I will not be able to carry it out." ”
"Very good...... What?" The prince was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the other party was rejecting him: "Vladimi, what do you mean by this?"
"I mean, I'm sorry Your Highness, but I can't take any risks in this situation. The secret agent's voice was still dry and hoarse. Unhurriedly, the shield array in front of him followed. "If necessary, or...... Please let all your subordinates leave here, and I can also let you meet with His Majesty. ”
"They're all loyal knights of the Guard, do you doubt their identity?"
Bert's face changed, he didn't know why the most loyal lackey around the emperor was so wary of him at this moment, but. It is absolutely impossible for him to compromise now - at this time, it is the right time to show loyalty and courage by the emperor's side. For his right to inherit the throne, it is a kind of consolidation of the greatest process, so he did not hesitate to snort coldly: "Now the crisis has not been resolved. You don't pay attention to the maintenance of this little manpower......"
"Yes, Your Highness, there are indeed some shortcomings. The Earl interrupted him suddenly: "I am willing to bear any responsibility if there is any mistake, but at this time, I cannot let anyone with suspicion approach His Majesty." ”
"What do you mean by that?" the prince froze for a moment, then his eyes widened and he raised his voice angrily: "You doubt me? It's ridiculous, why did I murder my own father?"
"Your Highness, no one is so suspicious. It's just that in the present situation, you should not have too much contact with His Majesty the King,"
"What do you mean by that? Vladimi? Vladimirovich! Do you want to rebel?"
"Who is going to rebel, but not certainly. ”
The tone of the gloomy test sounded in a flickering halo. Draw everyone's eyes to the corners of the hall at the same time...... And the light of the teleportation immediately outlined more than a dozen figures of uneven height, and the red figure in the lead made His Royal Highness the prince sigh in surprise.
"Master Fleming, when did you return to Romandy? It's great to have you in charge, and this place is safe. The prince's surprise was tinged with a hint of joy, but quickly. The solemn look on the other party's pale face dispelled this joy invisibly: "Could it be that something has happened?"
"It's not great, but I was lucky enough to see an interesting play"
"Master, have you misunderstood something...... Or instigated by perverse words? How could I possibly murder my father, I ......?"
This question caused a small sneer...... Edward almost laughed.
Isn't the phrase "mistaken or instigated by inappropriate words" explicitly and covertly mocking the intelligence and judgment of the other party?
This prince's brain is inevitably turning too slowly, obviously he has never experienced such a major event...... At this time, what is the point of justification? It is better to directly ask to go to the emperor to distinguish right from wrong, presumably it will not be rejected, and it is easy to say what evidence the emperor has, what nonsense is there here? If the other party refuses, then just flee immediately, the door of the magic academy is not closed, can't you find a place to seek justice?
"Kill him, and you'll be king. Otherwise, how long are you going to wait? Thirty years or forty years?" Master Fleming sneered: "Do you think I won't be able to figure out such a boring trick of yours? You old man is as impatient as you...... Well, if you look through the history books, you can know that your little trick is really not very new. ”
"Your Excellency, what proof do you have for spurting blood like this?" Belt's face turned pale in an instant...... It's a simple excuse, but it's moving enough.
In this world, the taste of being a prince is not so good, the people of zìyóu will consume their vitality by the age of fifty or so, and the average life expectancy of nobles is only ten years longer than that of commoners. But people in high positions, especially His Majesty the King, are not quite the same, under the effect of divine magic, they will not get sick lightly, and even if they are injured, they can heal quickly, so if nothing else, there is absolutely no problem in living a ten-year-old life...... It happens from time to time that a grandson or even a great-grandson becomes the next emperor, so as a prince, if you have any longing for that high chair, the best way is to pray for an accident and take the old guy entrenched on it away.
Of course, the holder of the throne will be replaced if there is an accident, and it will be changed if there is no accident...... This kind of thing is not very new in the thousands of years of history of the human empire.
This kind of thing, even if there is not the slightest evidence, a single statement is enough to make people speechless, and more importantly, if only some ministers are dissatisfied with his actions, this matter is easy to explain. But the right of a ** division to speak can be different.
"Evidence? ”
The master sneered, so a heavily armed knight behind him walked up, the status symbol on his head trembled slightly, he unfolded a piece of gilded parchment, and said loudly:
"Earlier today, I received an order signed by His Highness himself, calling for increased security in the Imperial City. Because of the assassination, I signed it, but I didn't see the knights who were transferred...... But just now, His Excellency ** Shi asked. I just contacted the Knights of the Guards, and they replied that there was never an order to mobilize men from their side. ”
"Cromwell. What are you talking about? I don't know! I never signed this order!" Feel a chill rise up your spine,
"Your Highness, when the magic seal on it can only be activated by you, and requires you to be clear-headed, or are you doubting the impartiality of this divine spell bestowed by the god of justice?" However, I have to say that bold plans often have a certain possibility of implementation, and if I hadn't just come back, you would have succeeded. ”
The knights looked at each other and bowed their heads in unison......
The prince was in a state of anger. His facial features have been distorted to a hideous Cheng dù, and his voice is as poignant as a night owl: "Are you dumb? I came here when I heard the alarm, didn't you hear it too......?"
His voice paused.
A silk luster nailed to his body, and at the other end of the silk thread, on a magic stone that detected lies. The red sheen is like flowing blood......
This stone is in the hands of the ** master.
"No, it's not like that, I don't ......" the young prince shouted, the changes in front of him had already made his mind a mess,
"It's no longer possible, please leave here, Your Highness. ”
A knight spoke suddenly.
Accompanied by this voice, there was a tinkling sound, and the armor on their bodies immediately slipped off, revealing the dull-colored clothes underneath, but in the blink of an eye, a group of knights, who had already turned into twenty monsters, gathered around Belt, bowed down, and then rushed backwards in unison, rushing towards everyone in the hall!
He drew his sword with a thud and tried to stab at one of the monsters—not to kill him, but to clarify his identity, but the monster moved so fast that when the tip of his sword pierced the air, there was only a phantom left there, and then vanished!
"Idiot!"
Fleming snorted and gestured casually.
In an instant, a golden luster unfolded, enveloping the prince into a transparent film, and the long sword in the prince's hand could not retract and stabbed at it, but the dull and thin luster did not move at all, and the long sword had already bent into the shape of a circular arc!
"Even if you want to usurp the throne, dealing with those things in the abyss, with your strength, there is not a single impurity left that has not been eaten, it can be regarded as a miracle, alas, forget it, this kind of thing, let your father judge, put down your arms, spare your life, if you want to resist stubbornly, then they are your example. ”
"You ...... You are framing me!" He screamed, "I want to see my father......!"
"Stupid mortals, that little power, can make them so crazy. The mage snapped his fingers, and his voice was inaudible: "It's a farce." ”
After burning a few knights to charred corpses, the electric light seemed to be nourished by some kind of Cheng dù, and the snake raised its head like a snake, and then with the flickering of the firelight, the entire huge magic array fell into a layer of bright blue!
The entire hall seemed to tremble at this sound, and around the pillars, countless cracks spread in the air like glass!
Then, a loud bang burst open, and the naked eye could almost see the ripples produced by the sound wave, and the sharp scream tore through the space and spread out like a knife.
Everyone was shocked to the ground at the same time, the invisible barrier shattered like glass, and the distorted air flew around like countless translucent butterflies fluttering their wings at the same time, and then turned into dots of shimmering light. And behind them, the blue electric light as thick as a bucket finally broke free from the last restraints, and they circled fiercely, rushing out with a crackling roar and a storm of air currents!
Shi's lips quivered, ready to spit out that deadly byte. But without warning, a tingling pain suddenly coalesced from every corner of his body and slammed into his brain!
