Royal Palace, night.

At this time, the banquet hall was already in a mess, and after the banquet was over, the various founders of the Dragon Slaying Alliance had already left one after another, and the army was about to start, and they still had a lot of affairs to arrange.

Now the only people left in the banquet hall are Beskode and Xu Yue, as well as His Majesty the King who is very drunk.

On the rooftop, Bescord leaned on the railing and looked into the distance, and the sky in the distance was covered by a gloomy and rich black cloud.

In the dark clouds, the blue thunder flashed endlessly, although the thunder was not heard, but the oppressive and terrifying atmosphere had already come from afar, and that was the direction of the dark valley.

"Xinhuo, how do you think this dragon slaying campaign will end?"

Hearing Bescord's inquiry, Xu Yue, who was standing aside, replied softly:

"Naturally, the Black Dragon was defeated, and Lord Beskod returned to the empire with glory and treasure."

Xu Yue didn't mention the names of the others, and Beskode didn't react when he heard it.

"Oh, so confident?"

"Fifty years ago, the Black Dragon Society failed, and it will be the same now, not to mention, this time we are the initiative, and we will bring peace."

"Huh." With a chuckle, Bescord was noncommittal to Xu Yue's answer.

"The black dragon is not a disease of blindness, even if the black dragon is eliminated this time, the Altria continent will just return to the previous state of war."

"Humans, elves, mages, priests, we are a group united by a common fear, but it won't be long before we fall apart by our own interests."

"As long as there are differences, fights, and too many voices, then there will never be a moment of peace on this continent, just like today's farce, before it starts, the allies have almost fought within themselves, heh, the alliance?"

At the mention of today's farce in the banquet hall, Bescord sneered, and the heads of the major forces quarreled, and in the end it was a young child who stopped the quarrel.

How ridiculous, although their coalition army is nominally dominated by human kings, at the banquet just now, there are really people who care about the so-called king His Majesty.

Thinking of this, Beskode's eyes became even colder, and he turned his head to look at Xu Yue, who was listening silently on the side, and said with deep meaning.

"Peace, it's not something that can be brought by killing a black dragon, there are too many voices of all kinds on this continent, so noisy that each force can only keep raising their volume and shouting at each other."

"So, if you want peace, the only way is to have only one voice on this continent, a voice that can overwhelm everything and make all forces obediently shut up, do you understand?"

Beskode's eyes were deep, as if they were burning with raging flames, and after Xu Yue and these eyes looked at each other for a moment, he lowered his eyes slightly and replied.

"My subordinates understand that after the battle of the Black Dragon, the Black Dragon Baoyu will transmit a voice to every corner of the continent, and that is your voice."

"Huh." Bescord chuckled and did not answer, but turned his head in the direction of the banquet hall, where a fat red figure was stumbling over, none other than His Majesty our esteemed Human King.

"Haha, Beskode, Baoyu I'm decided, after killing the black dragon, you must bring Baoyu back to me, with Baoyu, I will become the master of the continent."

The human king Cassius III was walking towards Beskode with a golden wine glass in his hand, and under the influence of alcohol, he was already imagining himself sitting on the throne and ruling the entire continent in one fell swoop after receiving the treasure jade.

Bescord didn't speak, but stood on the somewhat dimly lit rooftop, coldly looking at the human king approaching him from the brightly lit banquet hall.

At the junction of the cold moonlight and the bright candlelight, the two figures slowly approached.

Bescord's gaze moved away from the king and shifted to Xu Yue on the side, although he didn't say anything, the cold killing intent in his eyes was fully revealed.

Xu Yue understood, and took a few steps forward to support His Majesty the King, who was staggering closer.

"Bescord, I'll talk to you again, do you hear me?"

Supported by Xu Yue, the king did not resist, he was indeed a little drunk now, glanced at Xu Yue, and found that it was Bescord who had been taking him behind him today, so he didn't pay attention to it, but he didn't hear Beskode's reply for a long time, and his tone began to gradually amplify.

"Bescord. You hear ......"

"Poof."

This time, before the king's shouting words could be finished, he was interrupted by a sharp pain in his heart, and he lowered his head, only to see a silver palm drawn from his heart, and the sharp claws at the tips of his five fingers were dripping with blood.

"You, you ......"

Xu Yue held the king's limp body in his left hand, wiped the palm of his blood-stained right hand on his exquisite clothes a few times, and only after the blood stains were wiped dry did he throw the dying king on the ground.

The fat body smashed on the luxurious carpet, making a muffled sound, and along with Xu Yue's cold announcement.

"Your Majesty, you're too noisy."

You killed the human king Cassius III. 】

[This target is the head of the Human Empire, and you gain 9.4% of the Source of the World.] 】

【You get a treasure chest (blue)】

On the rooftop, Bescord watched the murder scene in front of him with a blank face, and only slowly approached the king on the floor after he was completely silent.

"Lord Beskode."

Seeing Beskode approaching, Xu Yue took half a step back, and the coldness in his previous tone disappeared.

Beskode nodded, staring at Xu Yue's still calm eyes for a long time, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and the two of them tacitly did not mention the murder that happened before, even if the one lying on the ground now was the most powerful human empire king on the continent.

"Take it, I heard you're interested in this thing."

A scroll was thrown by Beskode, Xu Yue reached out to take it, and after seeing the introduction of the item, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Noticing the excitement that flashed in Xu Yue's eyes, Bescord smiled, and then solemnly instructed:

"The large flying ship you want has also been arranged, go to Cook when you send troops tomorrow morning, he will arrange it for you, you will follow the army to the front of the Dark Valley, but after the big battle begins, you don't have to fight with monsters, but are on standby at any time, once you receive my signal, you will immediately rush to the rear of the Dark Valley, understand?"

"Yes, Lord Beskode."

"Well, go ahead."

Xu Yue saluted and left, leaving only one person and one corpse in the banquet hall.

Bescord looked down at His Majesty the King, who was gradually becoming cold on the carpet, with a cold look in his eyes.

"A dumb and incompetent person can't be the king of the mainland, I will do this for you, Your Majesty."

"Is that fire really manageable, Lord Beskode, I don't want our plans to get bogged down."

Soon after Beskode's words fell, a coquettish voice sounded from behind, and the dark elf stepped out of the shadows with bewitching steps, and stood beside Beskode, looking down at the corpse at his feet, and she had witnessed the whole process in the shadows before.

"He is a good knife, and he is also an alternative, the imperial capital and the flyship are all my people, betrayed me, and he will not be able to move an inch on this continent."

"And, he's a smart guy."

As he spoke, Beskod looked at the hideous hole in the human king's heart.

"From the moment he killed the king with his own hands, he had no way out, if he was obedient, he would be the blade that would clear dissent after I ascended the throne, and if he was not obedient, then he would be the best sacrifice when I ascended the throne."

After a moment of silence in the banquet hall, the soft voice of the dark elf sounded again.

"My lord, you are the only voice that can exist on the continent."

………

Outside the palace, Xu Yue looked up at the golden light shining from the window on the second floor, his face was flat, and his gaze turned to the scroll of "Arrow Manipulation" in his hand, the corners of his mouth brought a smile of unknown meaning, and he recalled casually chatting with a leading knight before.

"Is this a beating, or is it a reward? Lord Bethcord~"
