Dark King

Chapter 653

Chapter 653 – Chapter 652: Fight

“Get out of the way!”

On the streets of Berlin, hundreds of knights of light had completely surrounded a luxurious manor. At this moment, two knight commanders were escorting a hunchbacked old man dressed in a black robe out of the manor slowly.

This old man was dressed in a dirty black robe that was stained with dark green and other strange-colored potions. His silver-gray hair was disheveled, and he had his head lowered. A withered old arm was exposed under the robe, there was a black tattoo that looked like a poisonous snake. It was extremely eye-catching under the sunlight, and it made people fear it.

Outside the defensive line that was surrounded by a large number of knights, a large crowd of onlookers gathered. When they saw the black-robed old man being escorted out, some people immediately cried out in surprise and couldn’t help but step back.

Black robes. This was a common costume used by the followers of the Dark Cult, although some adventurers also preferred to use it.

The black tattoo was a devil symbol that everyone feared. It was as if the black tattoo itself represented disease, disaster, and death!

“Dark cultists!”

“Kill him! Burn him!”

“Why are we still keeping him? Burn him! !”

A series of ferocious roars came from behind the crowd, but the people standing in the front rarely spoke, as if they were afraid that the dark cultists would be enraged and commit murder. Even though there were many knights of light around them and they were under the Sun.., however, the shadow that the dark believer had accumulated in the hearts of the people all year round did not disappear.

Did the deepest darkness come from the heart?

The black-robed old man lowered his head, as if he did not hear the exclamations and roars around him. He silently walked forward. There was a huge shackle on his ankle, and every step he took, he rubbed his ankle until it hurt, there was already blood oozing out from the shackle, sliding down the instep and landing on the ground. He was barefooted. Every step he took, he could feel the roughness of the earth and the thickness of the ground that was warmed by the sun.

How long had it been since he walked on the ground barefooted like this?

He slowly raised his head and looked ahead. He saw the Knights of light at the defensive line holding hands and forming a circle. Outside the circle, there were countless unfamiliar faces, looking at him with fear and anger.

Walking from one circle to another seemed to be always out of reach!

His gaze continued to move upwards, looking at the white clouds in the sky. When the breeze blew, he felt waves of warmth and a sense of relief.

‘it will be over soon…’he thought silently in his heart. A young and tender face appeared in his mind. That was his grandson and the only family he had left. His death could allow him to live.., this seemed very fair.

Birth seemed to always be accompanied by death.

Death also meant a new life.

He was old. He felt that using his old body to exchange for his grandson’s life was very worth it.

After all, he was still a child. He still had many years to live.

“Behave yourself,”a chief knight reprimanded.

The old man was pushed forward by him. The intense pain caused by the friction of the shackles made him slightly grin. He endured it and did not cry out. After living for so many years, he was already used to the pain.

Behind the old man and the two chief knights, dozens of knights of light were escorting dozens of figures dressed in strange black clothes. These black clothes had strange styles, but the people of the dark church could recognize them at a glance, they were all the clothes worn by the apprentices.

Soon, everyone was escorted to the street and knelt down in a row.

Seeing that these followers of the dark church were so honest, the onlookers outside gradually became more courageous and roared angrily.

“Burn them!”

“Burn these devils!”

A head knight glanced at the crowd outside. Seeing that it was almost time, he immediately called a knight over and prepared to execute them!

“In the name of God, I sentence all of you!”

A Holy Knight walked over. He held a silver greatsword in his hand and held it high in the sky. The light shone on the blade of the sword. It was dazzling and reflected a rainbow-like halo, making it impossible for people to look at it directly. After reciting the sentence, he walked up to the old man and said sternly, “Do you have anything else to say?”

The old man was slightly silent and suddenly shouted, “We pledge our lives to follow Lord Bryson! !”

“Evil creature, damn it!”The Holy Knight roared and suddenly swung his sword.

Puff!

The blade of the sword was exceptionally sharp and instantly cut off the old man’s head.

A huge head fell to the ground and blood splattered onto the body of the person next to him. The kneeling youth next to him was so frightened that his face turned pale. He collapsed to the ground and cried out in fear.

A knight next to him immediately pressed his shoulder down.

“Kill!”

“Kill them all!”

The angry shouts outside became even more ferocious.

The Holy Knights decided in turn. Heads fell to the ground one by one. The bloody scene made some women close their eyes in fear. They covered their eyes and shrank back to the back of the crowd.

Soon, everyone was executed. The Head Knight said in a clear voice, “The followers of the dark cult are secretly conducting evil experiments here. All of them have been killed. If you have any clues about the followers of the Dark Cult, please report it to the Holy See. The Holy See will reward you handsomely!”

“Okay!”

“The Holy See is Glorious!”

A few voices shouted from the crowd.

The rest of the crowd immediately cheered as well. Waves of cheers came from the crowd.

The two head knights looked at each other and called for their subordinates to take away the bodies on the ground and clean up the bloodstains. Then, they left the crowd.

As they left, the crowd gathered on the streets gradually dispersed. They only looked at the luxurious manor behind the pool of blood. Their eyes were filled with respect and fear. Everyone who lived on this street knew that.., the owner of this manor was Commander Bryson’s mansion in the military headquarters. Moreover, many people heard the screams of the old man who had been beheaded before he died.

“I didn’t expect Commander Bryson of the military headquarters to actually collude with the dark cult!”

“And he even covered up for the dark cult to conduct experiments in his residence. Disgusting!”

“Shh, Lower Your Voice. Don’t let others hear you!”

The crowd gradually dispersed and discussed in low voices.

They stopped by a carriage outside a high-end restaurant. A young nobleman casually looked in the direction of the luxurious manor. Beside him stood a delicate girl, he asked curiously, “Young master, I heard from my father that the Holy See is going to arrest the commander of the military region this time. Is this true?”

The young man said indifferently, “Who cares if it’s true or not. What does it have to do with us?”

“If the Holy See and the military region fight, wouldn’t there be a big battle?”

“That has nothing to do with us nobles. Would they dare to fight against us?”

“That’s true…”

“Let’s go and eat your favorite plum blossom juice mixed with foie gras.”

“Commander Bryson, we believe in your innocence. There’s probably something fishy about this matter.”Saint Lorenza looked at the flustered Bryson and comforted him.

Bryson looked at him, his heart filled with anger. He thought to himself, “This matter might be you colluding with the Holy See to frame me. You want to use the Holy See to get rid of me. Stupid!”!

When the others heard Saint Lorenza’s words, they immediately knew that the military region must protect Commander Bryson this time. They did not dare to show any strange expressions. They could not help but curse in their hearts. The Holy See colluded with the dark cult to frame you.., only you dare to say such words, who would believe it!

“Since the Holy See doesn’t care about the face of our military region, we don’t need to say anything to them. Let’s see the truth with our fists!”Saint Lorenza looked at everyone present, he said, “Commander Bryson would never collude with the dark cult. The Holy See is clearly doing this to insult our military region. We must make the Holy See apologize for this matter. Since they now have the so-called evidence and are forcing us to submit, we can only defeat them and discuss with them again.”

The generals looked at each other. They did not expect that although he was old, his boldness still did not decrease. One had to know that when he was young, he was nicknamed the Golden Lion. From this, one could see how hot-tempered he was!

“I agree with the commander. This battle is unavoidable!”

“The evidence that the Holy See investigated was decided without discussing with US beforehand. Once we concede, we will no longer have the face to face people in the future!”

“We must make the Holy See Apologize!”

“That’s right!”

Everyone agreed.

Bryson was stunned as tears welled up in his eyes. He stood up and held Saint Lorenz’s hands. His heart was filled with guilt and gratitude as he said, “Thank you, thank you for Trusting Me!”

“We are old comrades. There’s no need to be so polite.”Saint Lorenz smiled.

Bryson’s heart stirred when he heard that. Indeed, back then, he and Saint Lorenzo were comrades who had gone through life and death together. Later on, they both established merits and became commanders. After so many years of fighting for power, they had schemed against each other, but he did not expect that when it was a matter of life and death, the most reliable person was this “Enemy”who had fought openly and secretly in the past.

“Richelieu and the great king of Light are waiting outside. Should we capture them first?”A general asked.

Saint Lorenza’s eyes flashed slightly, he said, “We can not attack directly. Otherwise, even if we win, the people will feel that the Holy See was forced to admit their mistakes by us. Not only do we want to fight, we also want to fight on the side of the Innocent!”

The generals were energized and looked at him curiously.

Saint Lorenzo glanced at the crowd and immediately whispered his plan.

After hearing his words, the whole place fell into a short silence. Everyone looked at each other with respect.

“The commander is WISE!”

“This plan is too high!”

“This time, we will definitely make the Holy See break their teeth instead of biting people!”
