Arad's crooked savior
Chapter 1,681 Darker than the Pretender
Celia lowered her head and fiddled with the magic ring on her finger, without explaining its specific origin to them. The ring also came with a one-time space magic that could teleport all objects within the range to a safe area.
The hand that paused slightly in the air just now was finally stretched out. Celia's face seemed to be calm now, but a trace of regret suddenly appeared deep in her heart.
Because now is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Emperor Leon Heinrich of the Delos Empire died due to the arrival of the Chaos Apostle Ozma. Everything is reasonable and basically no one will doubt it.
The palace was torn apart by the violent energy, how could anyone remain intact? After that, the whole city was in silence, and it was enough to miss the monarch a little.
She could even pretend to pass on Leon's last words and ascend to the throne of God openly after Ozma was defeated. This was her dream, and she devoted all her efforts to it.
But at that moment, her thoughts seemed to be only one finger away from the throne of power. Celia suddenly felt a little scared...or maybe it was because the thing she thought about day and night was right in front of her, so she was too nervous. Stretched, I started to think wildly, worrying that I would make a mistake.
What if Ozma had not killed her father Leon? The Chaos Apostle seemed to be just remembering his past in the palace and had no intention of killing. If Leon was still alive after the incident, her situation would be very embarrassing.
Especially, after hearing that her reliance, her future, and her master... mysteriously disappeared, Celia felt faintly worried.
Therefore, at that moment, she suddenly felt that if she took the opportunity to win Leon's favor, her ring could save lives and be a great contribution to maintaining the dignity of the royal family.
There is another reason, that is, Queen Josephine and her biological mother, Princess Mary, are also there. She wants to inherit the throne in a legitimate and fair manner, rather than committing the crime of regicide and patricide.
But the choice was only made in one thought. When Celia activated the space magic, she already regretted it so much that her heart was sore. She missed this good opportunity. Even if Lyon declared her as the heir apparent afterwards, if he himself was not sick or suffering from any disaster, at least he would still be alive. Twenty or thirty years of energetic days.
Could it be that she had to wait another twenty years?
There is a packet of dream-eating pollen in her underwear pocket. If you touch a little of it, you can fall asleep. Maybe this is an opportunity?
Leon slowly arranged his appearance, because the magic shield was shining brightly, and he did not see Celia's hesitant expression when she stretched out her hand, and he was also thinking about other things.
If he didn't want to die for his country and be buried in this palace hall, he had to escape with his daughter Celia, but this would be equivalent to giving up half of the population of Vetalun.
The palace was half destroyed, the throne of power was smashed to pieces, and the emperor abandoned the city and fled... Haha, he never thought that one day he would be so embarrassed and miserable. Even if he escaped with his life, his reputation would definitely be plummeted in the future.
The power of the apostle is so frightening...and fascinating.
Ozma wants to turn half of the residents of Vetalon into pretenders. Except for those who are fighting for the red beads, it is not that no one is trying to break out.
Hyde, who had been imprisoned before, waved the spear in his hand and led a team of men to try to break out of the city gate on one side, which was in the opposite direction to the black earth. In theory, the number of pretenders might be smaller.
"Aren't you going to save the palace?" Hyde's wife Hannah, holding a high-quality long sword from the Suran Workshop, fought side by side, and her strength was surprisingly at the peak of the Awakened One.
Hyde, the son of the dignified Duke Conard and the deputy leader of the Iron Wolf Knights, could not compare with his wife in terms of strength when he first got married. He was a strict henpecker... It was already an old joke among the nobles of Vetalon.
"If you don't go, aren't the lives of the people there more noble than those of the civilians?" Hyde waved his spear and smashed open the city gate. Rather than sit back and wait for death, he might as well fight once and die without regrets.
Of course, he really didn't want to meet Ozma, it was too terrifying and he was definitely no match for her.
The high-spirited fighting spirit is not a confused head, he is very self-aware.
During the last incident on the Black Earth, his father, Conard, found an excuse to put him in solitary confinement. The reason was that he had long heard about the Iron Wolf Knights, the army His Majesty the Emperor was going to send into the Black Earth.
The situation there is extremely dangerous, and anyone who enters is likely to die. Duke Conard is actually doing favoritism for his own good. Hyde is his son and the deputy leader of the Iron Wolf Knights. He really can't watch his son die.
The fact is that under the siege of the pretenders and Guyu's sneak attack, four-fifths of the Iron Wolf Knights have died, and they are in name only.
Not only Hyde's "Kruger" family is trying to break out, but after the initial panic, many traditional martial families and adventurers who happen to be in Vetalon are also gathering forces to prepare to attack the pretender's siege line. .
Gu Li
If you don't want to repeat the tragedy of Airoreno, you must leave the city. Moreover, will the red beads Ozma mentioned really be useful?
An apostle who wantonly spreads the curse of blood and blurs the boundaries between good and evil in human beings. How credible are the words coming from his mouth?
It is also worth mentioning that the aristocratic class of the Delos Empire is currently mainly divided into two types: old and new. For example, the Conard family and the family of Glaus Walter, the commander of a certain army in the empire, are all traditional aristocrats.
Most of them come from the era when the empire was founded. Their ancestors have made outstanding achievements. They are basically warriors. They also have "unique martial arts skills of the family".
When the Imperial Arena was not destroyed, it was very popular among the nobles to train "slaves" (mostly magic gunners), teach them some martial arts abilities, and send them to the arena to fight. Among them was Gerald the Conqueror. There is Shiku, and Natalia, a former slave.
Although there are not many "clean figures" like Duke Conard among the traditional nobles, those nobles cherish their lives, and the process of competing to inherit the title is also a manifestation of respect for strength.
As for the new aristocracy, they are represented by the Barn Bashut and Hendrys Grant families. If you want to maintain the long-term prosperity of an empire, you must not expect that the traditional aristocrats will always be as wise and brave as their ancestors. Fresh blood is very valuable. necessary.
The so-called emperor and ministers of one dynasty also means to form their own team. The new nobles are loyal to the contemporary emperor.
Therefore, when the people of Weitalun woke up, they began to try to break out of the encirclement. There were many energy fluctuations from the awakened people, and occasionally there were strong men from the legendary realm. I don’t know whose antiques they were, or they were unknown. Young rookie.
Who will rise strong and full of glory in the real second Dark Holy War, and who will become a passer-by in this era, buried in the dead, and become one of the "many people died" described in the pens of later generations.
In addition, there are many malicious speculations about why Ozma, the apostle's mortal enemy and the strongest Trial Blade, has become extremely public and is causing harm to the capital of the empire. Why has he not appeared yet? Where has he gone?
Some people think that he is afraid, because Ozma's performance is so amazing. He shattered the defense of Vetalun and the holy relic of the Golden Cathedral in a flash. He is also the only apostle at the peak of his power.
The apostle Lotus was thirsty and weak, and his skin was peeling from the sun. Derich's body was torn apart and fell to two places. Sirocco was resurrected but lacked energy, and the dream world collapsed. As for Antuen and Luke... both Regarding matters in the heavenly realm, although there is not much information obtained from the Arad continent, it does not seem to be in its prime.
As a result, some people with strong emotional fluctuations began to speak ill of Ye Lin, saying that he was just seeking fame and fame, greedy for power and profit, and that he was just a man of good luck who achieved great things only after meeting very weak apostles one after another. Reputation, as soon as he met the peak apostle, his true colors were revealed and he became a hooded ostrich.
The pent-up emotions seemed to have found an outlet, and some people began to accuse Ye Lin of his behavior to cover up their fear of the Chaos Apostle.
They didn't feel at all that it was because they were too weak that they were forced to wander around under the pressure of the Chaos Apostles and suffered a bad fate. Instead, they all believed that even if the sky fell, Ye Lin should fight first.
They just felt that Yelin didn't pay enough.
Taking advantage of the riots in the city, a shop of the Celia Chamber of Commerce in Vetalun was smashed and looted.
The Seven Deadly Sins magic circle scroll that Ye Lin had worked so hard to study was also burned. People bluntly said that it was a lie and that he was a liar like Michelle.
In the Imperial Palace, Ozma looked indifferently at those ugly guys who spoke dirty words and even harmed the people around Ye Lin, and casually snapped his fingers.
Those people suddenly froze on the spot, then covered their heads with force, and screamed in pain from their throats. Their skin was cracking, bone spurs were growing, and their fingers were twisting and lengthening, like the scales of wild beasts. They turned into disguises. By.
The sudden abnormality was frightening, and soon a powerful adventurer killed the pretender in the city.
The situation outside is already dangerous enough. If something goes wrong internally, it will be a repeat of the tragedy in Grobeini City. We must be decisive.
When chaos swept the world, there were people who, even if they were stained with blood, had a will as strong as iron and stood proudly, never willing to succumb to the whispers of the devil. However, there were also people who clearly had no wounds on their bodies, but whose actions were dirtier than they pretended to be. Or even deeper and darker.
The incident at Cape Byron was true, and so is the current scene.
"Ye Lin, you and I are surprisingly similar."
