Chapter 80: The Tilting Scales [IV.]

When the endless stars appeared in the sky around the strange bright moon, the city of the Lion Crusader was brightly lit, and waves of people kept shuttling through the streets and alleys desperately looking for their eyes, and the anger that had been suppressed all day gradually exploded at this moment, and they cursed the murderers of Princess Sylvana and Her Highness Elvis, who had plunged the entire inhabitants of the city into despair.

A whole day of searching was in vain, the princess was in distress in Wolongya Waterfall was almost dug into the ground, if it were not for the forbidden area of the waterfall to strictly prohibit entry, it is estimated that the crazy crowd would make unimaginable moves. It was also at this time that some people gave up the search and gathered into a powerful force to storm the city gate and escape, but they were greeted not by the light of hope for survival, but by the poisonous enchanted arrows that made everyone despair.

When Andrew Allenhall, the leader of the Black Rock Skull Guard, gave the order to shoot, the overwhelming array of arrows struck the advancing crowd like a huge wave, and then, no more. The toxin enchanted by the arrow made the injured person paralyzed and unable to move, and could only stand there and be shot alive, many people even watched the arrow that flew at great speed pierce the blood splashed on the flesh, and then a heart-piercing pain spread throughout the body, and then the consciousness gradually faded, the eyes slowly closed, and even said goodbye to this world without leaving time for remorse. After the rain of arrows, the front of the city gate was covered with layers of corpses, and many survivors who were still barely breathing were crawling towards the back with all their might, and the clear blood marks seemed to tell everyone, let me live, I want to live, I don't want to die.

"Burning !!!!"

When the earth-shattering magic incantation came from the city wall, the survivors who had been enduring severe pain couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the top of the city wall, and were suddenly shocked by the sight in front of them.

"No..."The wounded man who was crawling forward on the ground stared at the fireball and shouted in despair, and then the whole person was instantly engulfed by the fireball, and there was no longer a sound.

Purgatory, the scene of the main gate of the Battle Lion Crusader City at this time can only be described by these two words.

There were cheerful flames dancing on the corpses piled up in the inner and outer three layers near the city gate, and the smell of burning accompanied by the black smoke raged over the city gate, and the streets and alleys near the city gate came from time to time with intermittent cries, and those people who lost their loved ones could only look at the pile of burning corpses from a distance, but they did not dare to cross the thunder pool and approach the city gate half a step, because the archers standing above the city wall had already opened their bows and stretched out the arrows with cold light and aimed at the front of the city gate, no matter who entered the shooting range, they would turn into a cold corpse in an instant。

And in a watchtower not far from the city gates, Constantine XI was quietly leaning back in his chair and watching the slaughter at the city gates, at this time his heart was extremely calm, and for the first time since his illness he felt this quiet and peaceful night, although there were bursts of miserable wails and cries not far away, but these sounded wonderful to Constantine XI.

"Your Majesty, let Andrew Allenhall stop, your people are innocent!" a soft voice sounded behind Constantine XI, and then a jeweled hand placed on his shoulder and squeezed it gently. Constantine XI stretched out his withered right hand and patted the hand on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Tina, my princess, do you know what they are going to die for?"

Tina shook her head and sighed, "I don't quite understand what Your Majesty means, what do you want to do with such a thing as killing your own people, which has all kinds of harm but no benefit?"

Constantine XI stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the city gate, sighed, and said: "These fools were instigated to challenge my bottom line, and the group of rats hiding behind them want to see if I really dare to kill them, if I don't kill this group of people, then tomorrow evening's purge is definitely a joke, so, this group of people must die, use their lives to tell that this time tomorrow is the time for them to return to the arms of the gods, hahaha!" Constantine XI stood up with a smile, pondered for a moment, and then ordered the Black Rock Skull Guards outside the watchtower: "Tell Alan Hall to hang all the dead bugs under the city walls, and if there are still people who come to storm the city gates, the attack range will be doubled, no matter what the identity of the comer, there will be no mercy!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" a figure from the watchtower rose and fell along the city wall and disappeared into the dim light.

Tina sighed, knowing that her persuasion could not get Constantine XI to take back the oracle, and couldn't help but turn to look at the royal city, thinking about how to accomplish what Douglas had told her.

At this time, the news that the people who stormed the city gate were slaughtered spread as quickly as wings to every corner of the city of the War Lion Crusader, and many people thought that it was just a joke, after all, no king would dare to openly slaughter his own people. But when they came to the alley near the city gate to secretly look at the city gate, the terrible scene made everyone lie on the ground and vomit, and the most terrifying thing for them was that the wounded who were hanging under the city wall and were struggling to breathe were constantly pierced into the limbs with spears by a patrol guard above, and they continued to wail in the miserable pain until they bled to death.

At this moment, the city of the war lion crusade turned from madness to out of control, when King Constantine XI personally raised the scythe of death to mercilessly harvest life, those royals who originally had illusions finally understood the seriousness of the matter, if Princess Sylvana and His Royal Highness Elvis did not hear from him tomorrow evening, they would definitely carry out the oracle without hesitation. In an instant, the entire city of the Lion Crusader fell into a state of disorder, people have drawn their weapons and rushed to the streets to frantically kill all the living things that can be seen with the naked eye, burning and looting are staged in every corner of the city, the nobles and royals who are usually high above have become the target of the people's anger at this moment, countless burns are built around the roads in the city, the nobles and royals have been tied to the stake, angry people pour hot oil and firewood on them, and then people light the stake in cheers, and watch them be burned alive, and then drag down the stake and chop the bones into pieces and wash them with urine, and the death is extremely shameful。

In the slum rock house, Cohen hurriedly pushed open the basement door and rushed in, holding Sylvana's shoulder with one hand, and said sharply, "You must go out to stop this, because you and Elvis have lost their lives?

"What's going on?" the group asked, looking at Cohen in confusion.

Cohen relented and recounted the tragedy at the city gate from beginning to end, and when he learned that Constantine XI had killed ordinary people, everyone's faces changed, and Cohen walked up to Sylvana again and said, "Now only you and Elvis can save them." ”

Sylvana replied with a cold face: "It's not your turn to tell me what I want to do, those untouchables are dead, and my father naturally has a reason to kill them, so don't put this trumped-up charge on me and Elvis." ”

Hearing Sylvana's reply, Cohen's face sank, and he slowly pulled out the blade of light redemption, and said: "I don't know the so-called reason in your mouth, I only know that because you and Elvis many innocent people have died, if you don't want to go out, even if you are tied up, I will tie you up." With that, he slowly walked towards Sylvana with a sharp blade.

Seeing Cohen draw his weapon, Camille drew his knight's greatsword with his backhand, blocked it in front of Cohen, hesitated for a moment, and said, "If you want to hurt the princess, you must step over my corpse." ”

"When did you become Sylvana's person, now I have made it clear about the current situation of the Lion Crusader City, if the two of them do not appear again, the entire Lion Crusader City will be completely reduced to purgatory, and at that time, even if Sylvana appears, it will not be able to prevent this tragedy, but will become a demon in the eyes of the people to be torn to pieces, Camille, don't you still see the situation clearly? Put down your weapons!!" Cohen looked at Camille, who raised his knight's greatsword and posed in a defensive posture, and said angrily.

Camille shook his head in confusion, and said in a trembling voice: "Cohen, don't force me, I don't want to fight you!"

"Ghost Puzzle!!" A loud shout suddenly sounded beside Camille, and I saw that Kraft, who had been silent, suddenly pulled out a giant axe and cut it between the two, and without moving much, the knight's giant sword in Camille's hand was blown away, and then punched Camille's lower abdomen, and suddenly the whole person covered his stomach and lay on the ground moaning in pain. And Kraft took advantage of this gap and rushed over, grabbed Sylvana's neck tightly with his right hand, pressed her directly against the wall, and said sharply: "Do what Cohen says, the people are innocent!"

Sylvana was overwhelmed by Kraft's big hand, and her smaller face gradually turned purple, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "You... You know... Zhilu said, what are you doing... What? But... Accept... The Nasta Kingdom's... Princess!"

Kraft glanced at Sylvana, a cruel smile suddenly on the corner of his mouth, and suddenly punched her in the lower abdomen without warning. Sylvana suddenly felt her stomach turn upside down, and a mouthful of sour water squirted out directly, which could make her angry eyes burst into flames, no one dared to do this to her since she was a child, and when she was about to say a few words to support the scene, Kraft's calloused right palm slapped her directly on her cheek.

"Smack!!

The cacophony echoed through the small basement, and Kraft glanced at Sylvana and said, "You're not worthy of being a man!"

At this time, everyone in the basement was stunned, especially Elvis and Camille, who could not have imagined that Kraft would dare to treat the delicate and expensive Princess Sylvana like this, both of them were frightened at this time, and they didn't know what to do. However, Xuelu was about to go out to persuade Kraft, but Rachel pulled out a steel axe to stop her, saying, "It's good for her to keep her sober!"

Xuelu turned her head to look at Cohen, who nodded in acquiescence, then stopped talking and continued to look at Kraft, but her mind was thinking about how to solve the problem over and over again.

"You're damned!" Sylvana looked at Kraft, her face swollen as big as a peach, and her originally beautiful eyes were now squinting only a line, but she was still staring at Kraft viciously.

After listening to Sylvana's provocation, Kraft slapped her on the other cheek with a backhand and said, "Go on!"

"If you have the ability, you will kill me!!!" Sylvana roared with the best strength in her body, "Don't let me see my father alive, I will make your life worse than death, Kraft!"

Kraft smiled disdainfully, punched Sylvana in the stomach, knocked her unconscious on the shoulder, picked up the giant axe and said to Cohen, "Let's go, go and end this farce!" After saying that, he carried the princess out of the basement.
