Heart of the Castle

Chapter 535 The Crazy Truth, The Feast of Death
Li Wei needed to bite his gums hard to stop himself from swearing, but the anger was still burning his lips, making him dare not speak for a full minute or so, and could only stare at the despicable man in front of him that made him feel The incredible Duke Raul Adams.

Because the flames of anger burning in Li Wei's eyes were so real, although Grand Duke Raul was confident that he could use the shackles of the law to restrain the wings of the griffin, he still felt a little chilly in his heart, and he couldn't help but retreated to the Grand Duke's mansion. Behind the human wall composed of guards, I feel more at ease.

"It seems that you don't agree with what I just said?" Grand Duke Raul said again, he carefully restrained the arrogance on his face, and tried to make his voice as sincere as possible, "Lord Leviston, I can I assure you that there will be no more plots or traps against you."

"Your reputation is not very good, His Excellency Raul Adams." Disch Friedrich, who put on the robes of the great magister, interjected, "If you want to inherit the throne in a legitimate way, then please give Levy first Cleanse the young master of all kinds of stigma? Killing the king, treason, and treachery have nothing to do with Master Li Wei, but slander from people with ulterior motives."

"I completely agree with you, Master Frederick." Grand Duke Raul said almost without hesitation, "As a king, the burden on his shoulders is far more than that of ordinary nobles, just as the king's brother once shouldered the burden of patricide." As with the double charge of regicide, so too can I bear the charges you have just charged in the name of the king, no matter who they belong to."

Disch Friedrich was so choked up by the honesty that Archduke Raul could only describe as brazen, Li Wei felt a churn in his chest, and he was so sick that he just wanted to vomit, and then he took a deep breath Several times, I suppressed the discomfort, "In that case," the Griffon Lord said word by word, "Raul Adams, I hope you can..."

"Enough!" An angry and sharp female voice pierced the eardrum like a red-hot steel needle, making people feel like covering their ears.Everyone's attention was immediately attracted by this voice, even Li Wei and Grand Duke Raul were no exception.However, just when he saw the direction of the sound, the arrogant smile that Grand Duke Raul had been hanging on his lips suddenly faded away, like snow under the scorching sun in summer.

"Enough is enough, Raul Adams, your promises are more false than lies, and cheaper than rubble." The woman's voice continued, and at the same time, heavy footsteps approached slowly from the ruins of the palace, and the woman appeared soon In front of everyone, the cloak on his body was covered with dust and blood, and the hood drooped low, revealing only his chin with beautiful lines and smooth complexion.

When the woman staggered out of the ruins of the palace, the noble children gathered there were seized by a very strange feeling, and they all silently parted towards the two sides, allowing her to pass through smoothly.Grand Duke Raul looked at the woman suspiciously, his eyes flashed a few times, and he lowered his voice and asked her, "Who are you? Woman, what do you want to prove that you are to me—and also to His Majesty King Arthur— -'s slander?"

"Of course it is... this evidence." The woman said, pushing the hood back to reveal her face, "Look at me, look at me carefully." The woman said in a frighteningly soft voice, " Then tell everyone, what promise did you make to me?"

"Gods bless you, how could you still be alive?" Upon seeing the woman's face, Grand Duke Raul's whole body trembled violently, and he couldn't help blurting out a panicked voice, his face turned like rancid and gray milk . "You should be dead. Sir Al-Adir cut your throat a few days ago..."

Grand Duke Raul's voice was interrupted suddenly, and he turned his head to stare at Sir Can Jian viciously, "Al Adir, have you betrayed me?"

"Absolutely not, Your Excellency the Grand Duke." Sir Al-Adir's voice sounded calm, but there was also a slight trill. "Following your order, I personally cut off the neck of the Grand Princess from the right ear to the left, and watched her die..."

Fear made Sir Al-Adil unable to continue. No matter who it is, when the person he personally killed appears in front of him again, he will feel icy cold, let alone that woman... that woman...

It cannot be said to be a living person at all.

Princess Sheila was originally a beautiful woman with a delicate face and a graceful figure. Her flaxen hair fell down on her shoulders, and it was faintly golden under the sunlight.However, her current face is very terrifying: her skin is loose and soft, her lips are as pale as worms, a terrifying sword mark slanted across her face, and the unique damage caused by fighting energy makes the flesh on both sides of the sword mark roll up, revealing the blue-gray bones underneath .This sword mark also cut one of her eyes in half, but the remaining eye was so wide that it almost protruded from the eye socket, and there was only a dark green flame full of hatred and anger burning inside.

"It's a zombie! By the gods!"

"How could this kind of thing enter the city of glory, Firmeyer? Could it be that the Lord of Light no longer cares about this city?"

"Sue the dead... No, we are finished, this place will be destroyed..."

The appearance of Grand Princess Shera caused chaos among the nobles in the royal capital. Since the completion of Fermeyer, no undead creature has ever been able to set foot on this land known as the land favored by the Lord of Glory. The magic rune is also the golden holy fire of the Guangyao Cathedral day and night, and for the undead, it is a powerful force that can wipe them out.

Even now is no exception. After the Castle Heart regains contact, Levi can clearly feel the positive energy hanging over Firmeyer. If you use the vision of the exploration technique, you can even see the tiny golden and white light.For demons or other evil creatures, positive energy of this intensity will make them feel uncomfortable, and their combat effectiveness will also decrease; but for undead whose bodies are driven by pure negative energy, it is tantamount to soaking them in strong acid .

Li Wei's eyes flashed the strange light of the probing technique, and then he frowned tightly, "The crimson light...is a dangerous intensity, Mr. Dish, Princess Sheila is no longer alive, right? Why is Phil? Meyer's sacred enchantment field didn't cause any harm to it?"

"Princess Sheila is certainly not a living person, but she is not an ordinary zombie." Mr. Dish shook his head slowly, his voice was low and raving, "It is a soul-bound corpse, a high-level undead composed of extreme resentment and tragic death. Creatures, of course positive energy will damage them, but if you want to use this power to destroy them, you may have to wait until the next millennium."

Obviously, someone would never allow an undead creature to be active in the Lord of Glory's territory until the next millennium, "Go back! Unholy undead!" Cardinal Enoch Sebasta took a step forward, holding high Lifting the golden sun scepter in his hand, "My lord Flandara, in the sacred name of the golden sun, I will not allow you to enter the kingdom of the living!"

Following the cardinal's solemn announcement, a ray of light as bright as the morning sun shot out from the golden scepter, shining on the living corpse that was originally the Grand Princess Sheila.Thick green smoke with burnt breath gushed out from the living corpse's mouth in large puffs, and the living corpse let out a trembling painful whimper, as sharp and high-pitched as a steel wire tearing the sky.

As the thick smoke rose, the interior of the body of Grand Princess Sheila's corpse seemed to be on fire, and dots of golden light faintly shone from under its loose skin.The sacred prayer that Enoch Sebasta chanted suddenly rose up, and every word had a shocking feeling. Many nobles who were about to escape stopped, knelt on the ground, and greeted the Lord of Radiance. Confessing his cowardice just now, even the Death Knights and the Northern Allied Forces got off their horses and began to pray silently with the cardinal.

The living corpse of Grand Princess Sheila staggered and walked in the golden flames, struggling to wave and flap its arms, trying to extinguish the flames on its body, but it was in vain, the flames burned more and more intensely.The body of the living corpse was gradually twisted and deformed in the golden flames burning from the inside, and the loose skin and muscles dripped down from the body like melted wax, revealing the gray-black skeleton underneath.

"Flandara's Golden Purification Flame." Mr. Dish explained to Levi softly, "It can cause great damage to all undead creatures, even the exalted lich and the condemned knight can't bear it. Fortunately, this kind of magic Only the clerics of the Temple of Radiance above the Cardinal level can use it, and it can only be used once a day."

The power of Flandara's golden purification inflammation is indeed impressive. It didn't take long for the necrotic muscles and tendons to no longer be able to support the body of the living corpse. Accompanied by a terrible cracking sound, the living corpse of Grand Princess Shera seemed to be broken. Scattered on the ground like dropped puppets.

"Dead person, you have already left the mortal world and stepped into the kingdom of eternal night. What made you return to the mortal world?" Star Tutor Saci Enheer murmured. He didn't expect to get an answer, but the living corpse The head that hadn't been completely burned opened its hollow and scorched mouth, making a series of rattling sounds.

"It's hatred... can never give up... forever..." said the living corpse, struggling to turn its head towards Grand Duke Raul. Its one eye flowed down its cheek like frozen tears. When it opened its mouth, it was scorched black and bulging There was a small cracking sound from the lips, and countless dead red scars exploded.

"I am not alone, but all...sisters' grudges...your hidden...secrets...a victim of ambition..." A shining golden flame burst from the middle of the corpse's skull, shattering its The skull was blown out, but the voice of the living corpse became clear and firm, "I'll be waiting for you in the Kingdom of Eternal Night, Raul Adams..."

This venomous sentence made Grand Duke Raul flinch, but this was also the last sound made by the living corpse. As the sound disappeared, the remains of the living corpse quickly burned in the golden flames, as if the bones had become dry Same as firewood.

Silence then shrouded the street, eyes staring at the ashes left by the living corpses. For a while, the only sound in everyone's ears was the whimpering wind blowing through the ruins of the palace. After a full minute, they heard Grand Duke Raul dry. The voice broke the silence.

"What hatred?" He forcefully spit out the words with the tip of his tongue, as if something was blocked in his throat, "What secret? It's nonsense!"

As if to answer Grand Duke Raul's curse, the heavy footsteps sounded again, step by step like the footsteps of death approaching.There was commotion again among the crowd of nobles in the royal capital, and the footsteps that had just stopped because of the cardinal's holy prayer began to move out again.

"It's coming again, the living corpse is coming again, and the divine power of the Lord of Radiance can't be wiped out." Someone whispered.Cardinal Enoch Sebasta turned his head angrily, but the faces of the nobles standing around him turned pale, and their expressions became uglier than one, and it was impossible to determine who made the voice. "Yes, let's go." A voice of approval sounded from another direction.

Although he also has the power of Dou Qi Tianhua, Grand Duke Raul is not a brave and fearless knight, but more like a cunning and cunning politician.Facing the indelible resentment of the deceased, Grand Duke Raul's body trembled involuntarily. He clenched the hilt of his sword as hard as he could to restrain the trembling, and even the surface of his body faintly glowed with golden fighting spirit.However, he failed in the end, and the sound of his teeth clicking was terrifying, which almost made him feel ashamed.

"Sir Al-Adir!" His Royal Highness the Prince Regent said loudly, his voice was distorted by fear, and it appeared extremely sharp and hoarse. "Chop that filthy undead creature to pieces!"

A trace of sadness flashed in Sir Canjian's one-eyed eyes, but he was indeed loyal to Grand Duke Raul. After hearing the Grand Duke's order, he strode towards the ruins of the palace without hesitation. It looked extremely cold.

The footsteps then stopped, and a blood-stained woman appeared in front of Sir Al Adir. "Rest in peace, resentful soul, I will not allow your hatred to block the steps of His Majesty the Grand Duke!" Sir Canjian murmured, then suppressed the pity in his heart, and swung the long sword in his hand downward with a fierce arc.

This arc contains all the fighting energy of Lord Al-Adil with a sword. Even if it is a real soul-bound zombie, it may be split in half. However, the woman did not have the slightest intention of dodging. His eyes looked at the sharp sword that fell from his head.

a pair of eyes?
This thought flashed through Sir Al Adir's mind like a thunderbolt, "Oops, she is not the living corpse of Grand Princess Shera..." Sir Canjian's heart jumped suddenly, and he wanted to retract the sword edge that was slashed down, but Due to the excessive force just now, this obviously became an impossible thing.

A flash of sword light cut across the sky, the two swords collided fiercely, and there was a sharp clang, the blade in Sir Al Adir's hand broke from half of the place, and the right wrist holding the sword was distorted by the violent shock force At a horrible angle, the joints cracked.He opened his mouth and was about to cry out in pain, when another flash of sword light followed, cutting through armor, muscle and bone like a sharp knife through butter, splitting Sir Broken Sword from his shoulder to his chest.

Sir Al-Adil didn't even utter the last scream, he fell to the ground, convulsed a few times and died.Everyone who saw this scene was shocked, and several guard knights from the Grand Duke's mansion immediately formed a human wall in front of Grand Duke Raul. However, when they saw the figure holding the double swords clearly, their expressions were all pale and frozen. It looked like frosted panna cotta.

"Sky Knight...Your Excellency Marquis Osiris?"

The person who beheaded Sir Al-Adir on the spot was the head of the Knights of the Iron Guard. The elf's face was stained with some dust and blood, but it did not hide his handsome face, let alone his fierce murderous aura. "Raul Adams..." Marquis Osiris said every word, every word was as cold as ice. "It turns out that you are a veritable kingslayer!"

This accusation made the surrounding nobles stir uneasy, and the whispers turned into noise and uproar almost immediately. Some people had already started to think about whether to leave here, and some people almost instinctively drew their swords out of their sheaths, and then hesitated to put them away. went back.

Marquis Osiris took two steps forward with two swords in his hands, his steps were heavy, and the emerald green vindictive light left two long-lasting imprints of the same color in the air around him.Grand Duke Raul gritted his teeth and did not back down, but the big sweat on his forehead fully revealed the fear in his heart.

"Lord Marquis Osiris," he finally spoke, his throat as dry as if filled with sand, "where did you hear this rumor? It's not me who kills the king, but Brother Wang, who is closest to me. My pillow person..."

"This is your second crime. You are framing others." Although Marquis Osiris's footsteps were not fast, they were extremely steady. Even the guard knights around Grand Duke Raul drew their swords and surrounded him. Can make him slow down. "First the griffin lord Levi Stone." The green sword light flashed, and then flashed again, and the two guard knights fell on their backs. A bloodstain ran down the center of their eyebrows, splitting their heads in half.

"Then it's the turn of Queen Regent Lilaya, you..." Marquis Osiris said as he walked, his swords twirled, and two helmeted heads flew up into the sky with bloody light, and then the sword light flew up in an unimaginable The speed swept to the left and right, the arm holding the long sword tightly and the armored body fell down, and the strong breath of blood immediately rose.

"...Unforgivable crime!" When the voice of Marquis Osiris fell, the figure of the last guard knight fell at his feet, and now there was no obstacle between Grand Duke Raul and the sky knight.

Until then, Grand Duke Raul just woke up and wanted to draw his sword to fight, but it was too late, his hand just touched the hilt of the sword.Marquis Osiris moved his hands, and the two magical epees called "Nature's Wrath" immediately met on the neck of Grand Duke Raul. The chill immediately made him freeze in place, daring not to move.

"Your Majesty Lilaya, Queen Regent." Marquis Osiris said without turning his head, "Now the Kingslayer has bowed his head... You can tell the truth about the death of the Dragon King to the public."
