Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 175: One v eight
The scary silence is restored in the dungeon.
At this moment.
"Not right."
The only person in the royal guard who escaped from prison, Semir interjected coldly:
"If your goal is only to awake the king, why not single-handedly bring the legendary anti-devil armed to assassinate your so-called queen of disaster?"
At this moment, Semir is cold and decisive, and it seems that he is no longer the royal guard.
Thyls moved in his heart.
He frowned when he thought of Gilbert's retelling of the catastrophe of the Star Royal Family in the Scarlet Years.
"Why use such an extreme method?"
Sackel did not speak.
Semir continued to question:
"And, why do you want to put the entire Canstar royal family on your clearing list, and never give up unless they are slaughtered?"
Sackel's lips trembled.
His face faded, and he looked at Semir in a daze.
"Yes," Tardin joined the conversation with a pale face:
"You know, even the most innocent princesses and grandchildren, the most lively and innocent Princess Constance, even them..."
He bit his lip and couldn't say anything.
Sacuel looked at Semir and Tardin for a long time.
Until he sighed:
"That was not my intention."
Looking at this scene, Thales felt complicated, but he immediately thought of another question.
"Whose intention is that?"
The prince’s speech attracted the attention of others:
"You did not tell all the facts."
Tales Young said:
"Tell me, those who cooperated with you to assassinate the king back then, those who intended to subvert the star kingdom, who are they?"
The most important thing is...
"The group, disaster, what on earth were they and His Majesty Eddie conspiring to bring such a catastrophe?" Thales asked with gritted teeth.
Sackel seems to be questioned.
He was silent for a long time, but after all he just shook his head, still not answering.
"More."
Semir spoke again.
"If what you said is true, then why," the former officer in charge of the banner stared at the former penalty knight:
"Why didn't you stand up and admit that you are a traitor?"
"Didn't you accomplish your goal? You are not afraid of taking responsibility, let alone a person who is afraid of death. You are even willing to commit crimes for me who escaped... With your personality, shouldn't you be like you are now Tell the truth and accept trial?"
Sackel’s lips tightened, but the guards gradually noticed this suspicious point, frowned and looked at him.
"Why have you hidden for eighteen years?"
Semir’s questioning is progressive, and there are unwillingness and unhappiness in it:
"Why did you suddenly come out now, tell us these things, tell us that you are the damned traitor?"
"If I didn't step in here, and they didn't let you out, do you plan to live like this forever until death?"
Sacuel didn't move, but sank his face into the darkness that the fire could not reach.
"Even," Semir gritted his teeth, raised his arm, and surprised Thales:
"Why is your target this prince!"
At this moment, Thales was shocked!
Oops.
Why is the prince...
"What are you still hiding?"
Semir hissed:
"Are there any secrets that you would rather bring to the prison river, rather than tell them?"
Tyles glanced at the fast rope, who had been restlessly trying to escape, feeling bad.
Why...
Back to this topic?
Including Barney, the guards looked at Thacker with suspicion, and many people turned their eyes to Thales again.
Very bad.
Thyls gritted his teeth secretly.
Sacuel didn’t reveal my secret before, maybe because he still has the guilt towards the royal family, and he doesn’t want to tarnish the reputation of Can Xing...
But now...
Thyls glanced nervously at Saker, who seemed to be hesitant.
Now, he has revealed the truth about the alliance between Eddie II and the magician.
He already... has nothing to hide, right?
At this moment, Thacker spoke silently.
"Calling the soul."
The penalty knight is plain and authentic.
This made others, especially Thales, startled.
Call the soul?
What do you mean?
Sackel took a slow breath, and a deep vigilance appeared in his eyes.
"Whether it is the invasion of the Bone Prison today or the appearance of this highness, whether it is the sword of disaster, the shield of deception, or even the dragonbreaker."
"...None of them is a coincidence."
Thyls moved in his heart.
Not a coincidence...
Sachel raised his head sharply and looked at Thales.
"Your dagger, Your Highness."
The dagger?
Tyles couldn't help but swallowed his throat.
What?
Under the suspicion of other people's gaze, he resisted the desire to reach out to JC for life.
The tone of the penalty knight is cold, and there seems to be a chill between the words:
"I know that it is made of dark steel smelted by the dwarves in the ground-similar to the material of the supreme sword-but it is mixed with special bitumen for another purpose, which is very different."
Without waiting for Thales’ reaction, Saker’s next sentence reveals the origin of JC:
"That is the flower of the assassin, the unique weapon of the Surreyton family."
"It is the end of training for every Surreyton, which is the proof of the beginning of the assassin's career."
Everyone was shocked!
Even Fastrope looked at Thales in horror.
As for the center of the topic, Thales himself only felt stiff and difficult to move.
He knows.
But...
Sackel's eyes were full of alertness and fear, as if the mentally unstable prisoner escaped just now was just an illusion.
"This dagger appeared in your hands. What does your Highness, including the threatening and inducing attitudes of the shadowy assassins just now, show you."
"As the participants who were assassinated that year, I don't know what they did to re-infiltrate the Canopy Star royal family and get close to such a special..."
Speaking of "special you", Thacker paused again, shocking Thales in a cold sweat.
"But it must have something to do with the bad luck brought by those disasters, and their unsuccessful conspiracy."
The eyes of the guards flickered, moving back and forth between Thales and Thacker.
This time, the penalty knight was full of vigilance, as if his eyes were full of enemies.
"I can feel that someone is unwilling."
"They will not let go of their past tragedies."
Sackel’s eyes are burning:
"They are still digging out the taboos of the year, looking for the legacy of the past, trying to help the catastrophe and disaster 18 years ago..."
"Calling the soul."
Call the soul?
Tels looked at Thacker in a daze.
No.
It's not like that...
He turned his head hard.
This dagger, this dagger was once Yala, she gave it to herself...
But when he thought of this, Thales paused in his mind.
Wait a minute.
JC and the Flower of the Assassin may be misunderstood, but the Shield of Deception...
Thyls couldn't help but think of the brazier in my tavern.
[From the nearly crazy assassination of the royal family members 18 years ago, to now I have done my best to ensure the survival of the prince...]
[The change in attitude before and after Teng, all only explained one thing. 】
[The existence of that prince must mean something. 】
Sackel ignored the prince’s abnormality anymore, but went on to speak to himself like ice:
"They must be blocked."
He bit on the word "prevent", categorically, beyond doubt:
"The previous tragedy reappears, before the next mistake is made."
Thark's voice fell, and Thales only felt cold on his back.
Semuel smiled.
"Calling the soul," Semir repeated it, shaking his head, seemingly disdainful:
"Really a bad reason."
"But you haven't answered me yet..."
"Enough!"
At this moment, Barney seemed to have run out of patience, and he interrupted Semir without hesitation.
Semir glanced at Barney Jr. dissatisfiedly, but the latter ignored him.
"So, you don't want to catch it, you plan to continue to shoot the prince, right?" Barney looked straight ahead at Thacker.
Sackel was silent for a second.
He didn't answer directly, he just repeated what he said coldly:
"They must be blocked."
Hearing this, Barney's expression became colder.
"Very good."
The former vanguard officer took off the shield hanging behind his back, raised his long sword, and pointed directly at Thacker, murderously:
"Then you must also be blocked."
Little Barney faded away all hesitations and thoughts, and said in a cold voice: "In the name of the royal guard, we must count the sins and punish betrayal severely."
"Return to justice."
Tyles immediately felt that everyone's body and nerves were tense.
Beletti, Brie, Tardin, Cannon, Nai, Naghi, the prisoners of the Royal Guard slowly dispersed, re-holding their weapons, standing in line, and revealing their murderous intentions.
But no longer targeting Thales and the fast rope.
Rather, he pointed to the penalty knight in front of him.
Even Semir, who was standing on the other side, slowly drew his sword.
As if they had returned to a wartime state, as if the scene where the deceased had just met was just an illusion.
Tyles subconsciously squeezed Ricky's sword, while Fastrope rolled his eyes and raised the crossbow in his hand.
"Are you ready to accept your trial," Barney Jr. stared at Thacker unceremoniously, disgust and hatred in his eyes overflowing:
"Betrayer?"
The penalty knight silently endured their gaze.
"Of course," Sackel sighed and slowly picked up his axe. With the words, the grief on his face turned into an inch of firmness:
"Daily, every hour, every second."
"I'm all ready."
At this moment, as if someone had pulled the timeline back, the penalty knight and his former colleagues became hostile again.
The fast rope tugged at Thales, beckoning him if he wants to drive away now or when he is fighting.
But Thales shook his head.
He felt the dignity and tension in the field-but it did not come from the confrontation.
But only one of them.
"Barney?"
Naki held up his weapon, stared at the former watchman in front, swallowed embarrassedly, and cautiously: "He has one man, we have seven."
Barney frowned.
"No, eight."
Semir interjected lightly. He walked to the flank of Thaker with his sword, his eyes flashing with anger:
"All debts must be settled today."
Sacuel glanced at Semir, an unknown emotion flashed in his eyes~IndoMTL.com~ but said nothing.
Little Barney also glanced at the escaped coward he didn't like, pursed his lips, shook his head and said:
"Very good, eight."
So, the nine former members of the Royal Guard, the nine with the star-striked on their faces, and the nine who have not seen each other in eighteen years...
Facing each other at this moment, take up arms.
"One to eight, no," Nakey sighed softly, muttering to himself:
"The disparity is too great."
The rest of the royal guards frowned.
Too great?
Thyls's heart moved, and he heard the heaviness in the words.
Sac'el glanced lightly and looked at everyone again, as if observing the battlefield.
"Yes, I know."
He spoke softly, rid of all the unnecessary emotions, and became the calmest and most terrifying penalty knight again.
"I will beat you eight."
Sacuel raised his fighting axe and started to move forward.
Step, step, step.
"Indeed, this is for you..."
His momentum and pressure slowly accumulate with the number of steps, like a huge wave that seems slow in the distance but will eventually hit.
"More or less..."
I saw Sackel raise his axe and face the opponents who are waiting in battle with serious eyes:
"Not fair."
From my memory, the demon king named Zhou Geng Zhijian used his cruel rule to cover the sky of the kingdom's blood, without hope and sunshine.
But the suffering readers are secretly rumoring: Long, long ago, the world was not like this. At that time, the sky could see the sun and people's faces were full of hope.
People believe that one day the haze will dissipate, the devil will fail, and the long-lost hero will eventually return.
Its name is the sword of the day change!
