Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Tilting Scales [III.]

In the rock house in the slums of the Lion Crusader City, Sylvana pushed open the wooden door of the basement and returned to the first floor, and saw Camille leaning against the door with the knight's greatsword, so she beckoned to her to go to the back room to chat for a while, Camille asked: "Where is His Highness Elvis?" Sylvana smiled: "He slept, he was tired these days, just let him rest for a while, it just so happens that I have something I want to ask you." With that, he sat down on the simple wooden bed in the back room, and reached out and patted the place next to him for Camille to sit down.

Camille hesitated for a while, after all, the gap between his and Princess Sylvana's identities was there, and this kind of messing up the etiquette was unforgivable for the Black Rock Skeleton Guard, and said hurriedly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you can sit down, I'll find a place to sit at will." After saying that, he hurriedly rushed out of the door and pulled a piece of wood across the ground, sat down, and stopped talking.

Sylvana sighed, but did not force it, and said: "Camille, Xie Lu thank you for protecting Elvis all the way, if it weren't for your life, my brother's life would have been taken by those assassins. After speaking, he looked at Camille and said thank you from the bottom of his heart. Receiving Princess Sylvana's approval, Camille's little face turned red, and she replied helplessly: "That's what your subordinates should do, and Her Royal Highness the princess has won the prize." ”

Sylvana nodded, and then said: "Now the situation of the two of us is walking on thin ice, there are undercurrents surging in the royal city, I can't think of a way to contact my father after thinking about it now, if I rush out of the palace to break into the royal city to meet my father, the fate of a group of people will be even more auspicious." What can we do in this situation?"

"If we can see His Majesty the King, we can naturally keep everyone safe, but His Majesty's whereabouts have always been erratic, and we can't act rashly. For now, let's wait for Cohen and the others to come back from the news. Camille thought about it after speaking, and told him how Cohen and the others saved him and Elvis before, and Sylvana nodded after hearing it, and smiled with relief after learning about Elvis's transformation. After a moment, Sylvana's voice suddenly changed, and her voice asked in a slightly cold tone, "Camille, do you know Thelma Dick?"

Camille didn't expect Princess Sylvana to suddenly ask herself this question, and after hesitating for a moment, she replied, "Yes, the younger brother of Deputy Captain Thelma Sully, who doesn't know anyone in the Black Rock Skull Guard?"

"Then how is he behaved, I heard that he was the champion of combat skills at last year's knight's festival, I think his combat power should be quite high, right?" Sylvana's tone carried a hint of murderous intent, which made Camille's heart tremble for no reason, and a chill appeared in her heart, and she thought for a long time before replying: " Dick's current combat power should be at the peak of the middle level, but he has been hitting the high-level barrier for two years, and I heard that he has been stuck in a certain bottleneck, he has repeatedly asked the deputy head of the group to help him, but the deputy head of the group has not taken it seriously at all, and the relationship between the two siblings has deteriorated sharply this year. As for his personality, how to say it, it's unpopular, because his sister is the deputy head of the regiment has been rampant and domineering in the Black Rock Skull Knights, but he is also very smart, and he knows how to bully the weak and fear the hard, otherwise he would have been kicked out of the guard regiment by the regiment leader if he touched the interests of the group of old bones in the regiment. ”

"One of the assassins who hunted you and Elvis is him!" Sylvana said this with a face like frost, and the monstrous killing intent was even more evident, "If I were to return to the royal city alive to see my father, I would definitely make him regret coming to this world." ”

Camille looked at Princess Sylvana in disbelief, stood up in a gaffe, and muttered: "Your Royal Highness Princess, are all what you said true? It was Thelma Dick of the Black Rock Skull Guard Regiment who hunted me down and His Highness Elvis? This is impossible, the Black Rock Skull Guard Regiment can only be mobilized by His Majesty the King, it is the elite group of close guards under His Majesty the King, it is the most powerful combat force in the Lion War Crusader City, and it has the supreme glory of warriors. ”

Sylvana sighed and said expressionlessly, "It's a pity, what I said is true!" After saying that, she repeated the reason why Elvis was sure that Thelma Dick was among the Assassins, and said angrily: "Dick must pay this account." As for the so-called glory of the Black Rock Skull Guardians, I hope it won't be tarnished because of this. ”

Camille covered her mouth with her hands and sat down heavily, she originally thought that the Black Rock Skull Guardian was just an internal fight, if what Princess Sylvana said was true now, and the members of the Guardian Regiment became accomplices in other powerful struggles for power, and also pointed the blade at the royal family, Camille didn't dare to imagine how miserable the fate of the Black Rock Skull Guardian would be after the king learned the news. "Princess, there must be some misunderstanding here, I firmly believe in the glory of the Black Rock Skull Guardians!" Camille said with a sigh of relief.

"I hope it's a misunderstanding, too!" Sylvana didn't dwell on the question, she knew that there was no answer to Camille, but everything had to have a beginning, and in the case of Thelma Dick, Camille and Elvis were the obvious entry point. The most important thing now is how to meet her father, as long as she can live in front of him, Sylvana can turn the situation around, save her own life and her brother's life, and this group of strangers who help her.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, now we can only wait for Cohen and the others to come back, hoping to bring back good news!" Camille lowered her head, at this moment she no longer knew how to face Princess Sylvana, when the glory of the Black Rock Skull Guardian was completely trampled, Camille really didn't know where she was going in the Lion Crusader City.

Sylvana naturally saw Camille's uneasiness, stood up and walked up to her, and said softly: "You don't have to blame yourself for this matter, even if Thelma Dick and they tarnished the glory of the Guardian Regiment, but you, Esther Camille, used your life to protect the glory of the Guardian Regiment, I swear in the name of the Anasta royal family, I will definitely give the Black Rock Skull Guardian the fairest sentence, and I will also implore my father to just punish the black sheep, so, raise your head, the guilty person is definitely not you, Camille!!"

Two lines of tears slid down Camille's cheeks, she slowly raised her head to look at Princess Sylvana, choked and cried: "Princess Xie Xie, on behalf of the Black Rock Skull Escort Regiment, thank you!" After speaking, regardless of the princess's support, she forcibly inserted the knight's giant sword into the ground, knelt on her knees and kowtowed three heads, and then gritted her silver teeth and pulled out the knight's giant sword with her backhand, cut off the golden hair without hesitation, raised the giant sword flat on her chest, and said loudly: " Esther Camille hereby swears that she will be the master of Anasta Sylvana for the rest of her life, and that if she violates this vow, she will suffer from the sacrifice of her soul and never fall into the arms of the gods. After speaking, the left hand that held the broken hair ignited a ball of silver-white light, and a wisp of light mixed with Camille's wish power slowly attached to the sword body of the knight's giant sword, and after a while, the entire knight's giant sword flashed with a soft silver-white light, and two quaint patterns were engraved around the sword body, which was the mark of the warrior's sworn allegiance to his master: the inscription of soul sacrifice.

"Why are you doing this?" Sylvana slowly helped Camille up, she naturally understood the meaning of the soul sacrifice inscription, the chief and deputy leaders of the Black Rock Skeleton Guard Regiment had performed this ritual to their father, if there was a trace of rebellion, the whole person would be swallowed by the dark blue soul flame, and there would not even be a bit of slag burned. Now Camille is determined by this, then she can only be by her side for the rest of her life, she can't get married, she can't stay away, she works hard, and if her life disappears, Camille will follow her back to the arms of the gods.

"I hope Her Royal Highness the Princess will take me in!" Camille just lowered her head and whispered. Sylvana sighed, gently rubbed Camille's face, and said, "Then you can follow me in the future, Charlene was killed by Dick, and I happen to lack a guard, and when this matter is over, you don't have to report back to the escort group, I will make a request to my father." ”

At this moment, there were suddenly three rhythmic knocks on the wooden door of the Iwaya, Camille grabbed the knight's greatsword and rushed to the back of the wooden door, and looked through a narrow gap in the window, only to see four figures carefully looking sideways around, it was the four Cohen.

Camille hurriedly opened the door and motioned for the three to come in, and after the four mermaids entered, he looked around vigilantly, and after making sure that there were no pursuers, he quickly closed the wooden door and said softly to the four people: "Go to the basement first, the princess and I will come immediately." Cohen answered, leading the group toward the basement, and after a while, Camille and Sylvana followed. "I've put a little trap on it that will trigger if someone breaks in!" Camille pulled out his greatsword and pressed it against the basement baffle before he sat down.

Seeing the cautious Camille, Cohen suddenly smiled and said: "Okay, don't be so careful, now the entire Lion War Crusader City has become a mess because of Princess Sylvana and Prince Elvis, and now the whole city is looking for traces of the two of you, but no one will harm the two of you again." ”

Sylvana looked at Cohen in disbelief and asked, "Slow down, what the hell is going on?"

Cohen straightened out his mind a little, and told Sylvana the oracle of Constantine XI that made the whole city desperate, and said with a smile: "I think the assassins who chased you at that time definitely didn't expect that their actions could be said to be self-defeating, but it's good, as long as the princess and the fourth prince appear in the city, there will be countless forces to protect your safety, so I said that you don't need to be so careful now." ”

After hearing the news that Cohen brought back, Camille cried with joy, looked at Sylvana and Elvis, and cried: "Master, now we can go back to the royal city, finally we don't have to leave the lion crusade city, let's rush back to the royal city now." ”

Who knew that Sylvana shook her head and said with a smile: "No, I want them to feel the despair, I will never show up before sunset tomorrow, I know my father, he does what he says, since he can make this decision, he must have his own plans." In the past two years, there have been too many grievances in the royal city that need to be settled by his own hands, and he issued this holy edict, in fact, it is also an excuse for himself. Don't worry, I know when the best time for Lu Dao to appear, otherwise it will be rare for my father to put on a good show, but it will end early because of me as an actor, which is not good. An inexplicable smile hung on Sylvana's lips.

At this moment, Cohen suddenly felt a chill rise in his heart, and for the first time he doubted whether he was right to help Sylvana.
