Chapter 17: The Truth About the Rebellion
"What are you going to do?" the rebel soldiers posing as the Golden Dragon Knights looked at the group of flying knights with horror.
"Of course, I came to quell the rebellion, and by the way, to capture Byron, the king-killer, alive. "The blonde man at the head daxiao.
"Lord Simon, I didn't expect your White Dragon Knights to make a move so quickly. Suddenly, another group of men came to kill them. The leader was a man in a black robe, whose head was covered by a cloak, and many of the people present could not see the man's face. I just saw that the men brought by this man were holding magic staff in their hands.
"You're Lord Parsa's men, aren't you?" Simon said to the man with a smile, "Today's credit definitely belongs to our White Dragon Knights, don't you want to share anything from my Uncle Simon." ”
"Simeon, leave these little trash fish to us, and you hurry up and capture the leader of the rebels, Byron. The man was very humble.
"That's okay, I can't let you run for nothing, I'll leave these people to you. Come with me......, everyone," Simon exclaimed, leading his men towards the inner courtyard of the palace.
"It was so dangerous just now, but I'm glad you came. The group of rebel soldiers posing as the Golden Dragon Knights let out a long breath.
"Hmph, Master Parsa said, kill all the rebel soldiers!" Suddenly, the black-robed man shouted loudly. His men mounted their horses, each raising their staff and aiming it at the soldiers.
"What? You can't do that...... Ah......" With a burst of screams, corpses were strewn all over the walls of the palace. The black-robed man looked at the corpse on the ground and smiled wickedly: "Only the dead will shut up forever." ”
"My lord, it's not good. All of a sudden, the rebels were gone, but we found that the White Dragon and the Black Dragon Knights had been killed, and they all shouted that Lord Byron had killed King Bixia and were coming to arrest you. A soldier of the Byron guard ran into the king's chambers in a panic. At this time, Byron was still sad because of the death of the king.
"I will take the body of King Bixia with me. Byron got up and looked at Roy, who had already swallowed his breath.
"My lord, it's too late. They're about to kill here, so you might as well retreat. The soldier shouted, "Fanny, Kevin, Lana, and Siruph are all waiting for you in the Temple of Light, where most of the Golden Dragon Knights are already gathered for a decisive battle against the enemy. ”
Listening to the soldiers' reports on the current state of the battle, Byron reluctantly left the king's chambers and ran towards the Temple of Light.
"Wait a minute, there's Geraint! I just sent him to His Royal Highness the Prince's bedchamber. Byron stopped suddenly.
"My lord, you go to the Temple of Light first, and Lord Gerante will leave it to us!" Several Byron Guards soldiers persuaded Byron to evacuate first.
"Alright, make sure Geraint is safely evacuated to the Temple of Light. Byron told several of his men. Looking at the distant backs of these guards, Byron knew in his heart that maybe this time, they might never come back, leaving only deep respect in his heart.
At night, the palace was already in full swing. The Golden Dragon Knights, who were regarded as rebels, were defeated and suppressed by the combined efforts of several other major knights. The entire palace was littered with corpses, and the beautiful scenery of the palace had been devastated by the war. The once beautiful back garden was also not spared the baptism of war. At this time, a mysterious man in a black robe walked into the back garden, which had been burned by the fire.
"Byron, you're still a step too late in the end. The mysterious man smiled strangely at the corners of his mouth, his eyes sparkled, and he slowly faded the hat on his black robe to the back of his head with his hands.
On the other side, Byron led a part of his men to retreat towards the Temple of Light. He looked up and saw that the whole night sky seemed to be shrouded in shadows, with no moonlight in sight and no stars to embellish it. And not far from the sky, he seemed to see a familiar and terrifying figure smiling at him.
"Is that really you?" Byron sighed with a solemn face, and then quickly ran towards the Temple of Light.
"Lord Byron, it's good to see you're okay. Byron retreated to the Hall of Light, and all the members of the Golden Dragon Knights stepped forward to greet him.
"Lord Byron, do you see Geraint? he is not with you?" Suddenly, a woman's voice reached Byron's ears.
"Siruf!" Byron glanced at her, "when the rebellion broke out just now, I asked Geraint to protect His Royal Highness. I have sent someone to meet him at once, and I will take care of him to meet us at the Temple of Light. ”
"I am very worried about Geraint's safety. Siruf had an uneasy look on her face.
"Geraint will be fine, trust me, Siruf!" Byron clenched his fists.
Soon, the two groups of men led by the Black Dragon and the White Dragon Knights also killed outside the Holy Light Hall.
"It's been a long time since I've played that well. The goal is in sight!" Simon rode his Pegasus at the head of the group.
At this time, outside the gate of the Holy Light Temple, a familiar voice was calling for help to everyone inside: "Lord Byron, I'm back, you open the door quickly." ”
"Did you hear that? It's Geraint, Geraint, he's back. Siruf was thrilled when she heard the cries for help.
"Thanks to the goddess of light, Geraint is safe and sound. Byron hurriedly led the crowd to open the door to greet him.
"Lord Byron, I dare to rush back before the group of flying knights of the White Dragon Knights. Geraint dragged his tired body to the crowd, and in his arms was a child who was the little prince Joshua. It's just that for some reason, Joshua has been in a coma.
"Geraint, you're injured, but it's good to come back, Your Highness the Prince, what's wrong with him?" Byron hurriedly asked Geraint about the situation.
"I'm sorry, Lord Byron! The Queen and Her Royal Highness the Princess were killed, and the gang dressed in the costumes of our Golden Dragon Knights carried out a large-scale massacre of the royal family members in the palace. "I didn't see their faces clearly, but I noticed that many of them could do magic and attack with staffs. His Royal Highness was frightened and passed out!"
"Attack with magic?" Priest Kevin interjected, "In the entire Lance Kingdom, the best at magic attacks is the Black Dragon Wizard Knights led by Parsa. ”
"Sure enough, he is the mastermind behind all this, Parsa. Byron said angrily, "The death of King Bixia has nothing to do with him." ”
"But wasn't he locked up in a cabin on the island in the middle of the lake by us?" Kevin was puzzled.
"Since dark magic can control the minds of others, Parsa can command others to work for him wherever he is. Byron analyzed the whole story, "He had his men assassinate the king so that we could lock him up." Then he uses old Elda to get rid of his evil jihua so that he can also get rid of suspicion. As for the children's deaths, it must have something to do with the magic he studied, and the reason why the king suddenly fell must have something to do with his magic. ”
"O Byron, you are my strongest opponent in Parsa. "Looking at the flames in the palace, the mysterious man standing in the garden finally revealed his true colors. Sure enough, he is the head of the Black Dragon Knights of the Reims Kingdom - the chief archmage Parsa, the creator of all conspiracies.
"It's a pity that you are all so small in the face of powerful dark magic. You don't even know that there is such a magic as 'Dark Winding', how can you prevent Roy's death?" Parsa daxiao, "The barrier in the back garden is not used to defend against the invasion of demonic creatures, it is just a tomb dug for the king. From tomorrow onwards, I, Parsa, will be the lord of the kingdom of Reims. Those who have laughed at me and slandered me will pay the price they deserve. ”
Inside the Temple of Light......
"The rebels are about to attack, Geraint, you take the prince and leave quickly, no matter what sound you hear, don't look back!" Byron instructed Geraint to evacuate now, "There is a secret passage in the Hall of Light, which can lead directly to the periphery of the palace, you must protect His Royal Highness the prince." ”
"Won't you come with us, sir?" asked Geraint.
"Don't worry, even Parsa, it's not that easy to kill me. Hurry up! You're hurt and not leaving, it's only going to drag me down!" Byron said firmly.
