Volume Two The Fallen Light Chapter 50 The Coup (4)
As long as the killer doesn't move, he will definitely unleash an astonishing lethality if he moves.
Even though he was prepared, old Henry, whose body quickly turned into black mist, was still stabbed by John Wick's long-planned sword.
Feeling the severe injury to his body, old Henry had remained calm. The black mist all over his body condensed at the wound, holding Lothar's Blade firmly like a pair of hands, preventing the legendary killer from getting away. At the same time, the black sword also moved towards the killer.
beheaded.
John Wick was in a dilemma at this time. If he retreated directly to dodge, he would lose the sacred weapon Lothar's Edge. If he didn't dodge, the killer would probably die suddenly on the spot due to his weak physique.
John Wick also tried to burst out his fighting spirit on the tip of Lothar's Edge, but he didn't know what the black mist was made of, and it suppressed his fighting spirit.
In desperation, the killer had no choice but to abandon Lothar's Edge and retreat quickly. Even if it was an artifact, it was not as important as his life.
After dodging the joint attacks of Dathrohan and Nazir, Old Henry pulled out the Blade of Lothar stabbed at his waist. Looking at the transparent blade, he couldn't help but sigh: "What a domineering sword!"
At this time, he also felt the same numbness as Luo Ning, which had gradually spread all over his body from the wound. However, as a vampire and a melee professional, his physical fitness was able to suppress these negative effects for the time being.
With old Henry's speed, if he wanted to run away, none of the three people present could catch up with him, but this would put Charles III and the others in danger.
No longer hesitating, the severely injured old Henry launched the violent fighting skill - Recklessness, which greatly increased his attack power after being injured. At this moment, his power surged even more, exuding an aura like a demon, suppressing the Second Order of the Holy Church.
People dare not take any action.
Throwing the Blade of Lothar towards Dathrohan, he bullied Nazir. This time, he had no reservations.
Nazir was crumbling under Old Henry's endless wave of offensive. The Holy Light energy in his body flickered on and off, and he saw that he could not hold on for much longer.
Dathrohan blocked Lothar's blade and stabbed old Henry in the back with his sword.
This time, old Henry refused to dodge and allowed the sword of holy flame to penetrate from his back and chest.
At this time, Nazir's defense also collapsed under Old Henry's violent attack, and the black two-handed sword also penetrated Nazir's chest, making Dathrohan's eyes wide open.
"Nazir!"
Dathrohan wanted to pull out the Sword of Holy Flame, but he also encountered John Wick's situation, and the sword couldn't be pulled out.
Fortunately, Dathrohan has rich combat experience.
Can't pull it out?
Then don’t pull it out!
Punch after punch, Dassohan's fists continuously hit old Henry's back, breaking his spine and completely denting his back.
The legendary killer hiding on the side also emerged from the darkness at this moment, and pointed like a knife, stabbing into old Henry's head.
Old Henry's old-fashioned expression revealed a strange smile.
"not good!"
"Spread out!"
This is the common thought in the minds of Dathrohan and John Wick. They see that this is a trap, and they will catch them all in one trap and use their own lives as bait.
Regardless of continuing to attack, John Wick changed direction strangely in mid-air and shot out into the distance. But Dathrohan and Nazir were not so lucky. Nazir, who was severely injured, could not do anything at the moment.
There was no reaction, and Dathrohan was too close, so he only had time to gather his fighting spirit for defense.
Countless pictures appeared in old Henry's mind at this moment:
My lover, my beloved son, and the young prince Charlie were on the border of Albrex, where they rescued him who was on the verge of death after being chased by his enemies.
Your Majesty, I'm sorry, old Henry took the first step.
Old Henry's body expanded rapidly at this moment, and the black mist expanded rapidly from Old Henry's body, spreading hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, enveloping Dathrohan, Nazir, and John Wick.
The black mist was still spreading rapidly to the periphery, and Servais secretly shouted: "Not good!"
He picked up Peter and ran wildly in the opposite direction, while some of the other nobles, order knights and dark blade knights who could not dodge were silently swallowed by the black mist without even making a sound.
After a while, the black smoke dissipated, and a place of death several hundred meters away appeared in front of everyone.
The observation deck and grassland had disappeared, leaving only the dark ground, as if it had been baptized by strong acid.
Except for Dathrohan and Killer John, who were kneeling on the ground and gasping loudly, Old Henry, Nazir and everyone swallowed by the black mist had disappeared.
Even Dathrohan and John were severely injured at this moment and were unable to fight anymore.
Peter and Servais were shocked. They knew old Henry was very strong, but they didn't expect him to be so strong. Three against one, they killed one and seriously injured two.
Fortunately, such a terrifying enemy is already dead. The next step is to kill Charles III, Ivan, and Catherine, and the overall situation will be decided.
But Peter is not in a hurry. He has already laid out a dragnet and has a trump card that he has yet to reveal.
Dathrohan walked to Peter with red eyes and ragged clothes, and stated his attitude resolutely:
"Your Highness Peter, our Holy Church has suffered huge losses this time. Even the Twilight Trial of the Religious Inquisition has returned to the embrace of the Lord. I hope you will fulfill our agreement after it is completed, otherwise..."
Dassault Han didn't finish his words, the threat was obvious.
"Of course, Lord Dathrohan, I will definitely fulfill our agreement." Peter was thinking in his heart at this moment: When the overall situation is decided, you will have no use value, and whether I fulfill the agreement or not is entirely up to me.
But for now, we still have to rely on these people of the Holy Church.
"I hope so." Dathrohan spat out another mouthful of blood, staggered towards the night, and disappeared.
After Dathrohan left, Peter immediately sent someone to rescue John Wick. This legendary killer was his confidant. It was he who had worked hard and paid a huge price to obtain the Blade of Lothar, and then used this legendary weapon to conquer the enemy.
Bribe this legendary killer to work for you for five years.
We can't let him die now.
What's more, if he hadn't hit Luo Ning with one attack tonight, the result would have been hard to say. After all, the veteran legendary mage is definitely stronger than the three legendary ones on our side.
John, who was lying on the stretcher, summoned him casually, and the transparent Lothar's Blade returned to his hands. He tilted his head and passed out.
The center of John's self-destruction was far away, but as a killer, all his fighting energy was used for assassinations, and his defense was ranked last among the legendary professions. Therefore, even if he was far away from the center of the self-destruction, he was already severely damaged.
Looking at the trembling nobles, Peter said disdainfully: "Everyone, please go back to Wadenhof on your own. If nothing else happens, you can attend my coronation ceremony in a few days."
After saying that, he and Servais took a group of dark blades and the Order Knights and rode away in the direction of Charles III and others to escape to Wadenhof, leaving behind a group of hesitant and bewildered nobles and forbidden people everywhere.
Corpses of Guardsmen.
Charles III was extremely anxious at this moment. He was fleeing towards Wadenhof with Ivan, Catherine, the unconscious Ronin, two Saints and a few Praetorian Guards.
Along the way, he killed many black-armored knights who blocked the road. They seemed to be the Dark Blade Knights secretly formed by Peter.
It would be safe once we arrived at Waldenhof, everyone thought so.
But Charles III was not so optimistic. With the strength of his control over the empire, he did not find any sign of Peter's intention to rebel. It can be seen that the second son's palace was as deep as his own. How could he let them escape like this?
Charles III couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had always thought that his control over the empire was not complete, but it should be about the same. Unexpectedly, he was the one who was kept in the dark.
All the important ministers around him betrayed him. Servais, his beloved general whom he trusted so much, hey!
And that hateful intelligence minister, Vasily the "Eight-Clawed Spider", he must have taken refuge with Peter, otherwise why would he not have any news at all?
This damn gang will definitely kill your whole family when I return to the imperial capital.
While he was thinking to himself, suddenly a huge black fireball hit everyone. Charles III, who reacted quickly, immediately dodged with Ekaterina and Luo Ning between them. The other two paladins also took Ivan and escaped from the fireball.
range.
There was a loud "boom", and the guards and war horses that could not escape the scope of the spell were turned into a ball of charcoal.
Then one after another black fireballs continued to attack everyone, and for a while, the few people who were trying to avoid it were in a panic.
Fireball is not a high-level spell, but its power varies from person to person. But this fireball is black. It seems that the caster is a dark mage, adding dark attributes to the ordinary fireball.
Judging from the power of this dark fireball spell, the caster should be a holy mage, but now he is well hidden and could not find him for a while, so he fell into a passive position.
At this time, another black fireball flew in, and a paladin immediately discovered the hiding place of the mage who was attacking them. He immediately burst out with fighting spirit and rushed towards the dark mage at high speed.
