141. The kings spirit (two in one, plus the alliance leader)
The sky has just reached the point of being bright, but the Golden Palace in the center of Saint-Nali City is brightly lit. Gold patterns are decorated on the walls, like deep imprints, setting off this building that symbolizes the dignity of the royal family of Saint-Nali, Gedelin.
Be noble and holy.
The Golden Palace as a whole is divided into two parts, the front and the back. Look along the corridor and courtyard of the back part. Behind the pool at the back of the Golden Palace, a separate building rises from the ground. On the outside of the building, there is a golden
The Gedelin Triple Ring quietly stared at the empire outside.
This is the palace of Gedlin IX, a health care place specially built after he fell ill.
Looking inside this building, layers of magic curtains hanging from the sky are shining with pure green light. These are the healing magic that the Nari magician spent a lot of money to specially engrave for the old Gedelin IX.
Only by staying in this palace wrapped in magic could King Gedelin IX's aging body be able to survive.
But even so, death is inevitably getting closer to him, and his waking hours are getting shorter and shorter. Now he can't even get out of bed.
The rumor in Saint Nari that Godlin IX is approaching his end is not groundless. Godlin IX himself also knew this.
At this morning, the door of the dormitory was gently pushed open, and a man wearing a white robe with a rather pale face walked into the dormitory.
The man's figure was a little thin, and he seemed to have not had a good rest recently. There was still a layer of blackness under his eyes. His expression was sluggish, but his eyes went straight through the layers of shimmering curtains.
He looked at the bed hidden behind the curtain, or in other words, the person on the bed.
That is the second prince of Gedelin IX, Rensis.
He has been imprisoned here by his brother for two days, and he has not closed his eyes since he came back.
There is also a huge oil painting hanging behind the bed. The oil painting shows the young King Gedelin IX holding a golden scepter. Next to him stands a gentle-looking man. Although his appearance is ordinary, his eyebrows are full of smiles.
A charming lady.
That was the biological mother of Dexter, Rensis and Yin Elizabeth, and the first queen of Gedelin IX, Nera.
King Gedelin IX loved her the most, but she passed away early a few years after Rensis was born.
"Father...you called me?"
Behind the bed behind the curtain, an old man with white beard and hair and weak breath was wearing a pair of thin white pajamas. His expression was very depressed. Even though the breath of life was now extremely weak, there was still a trace of emotion between his eyebrows.
A majesty that cannot be ignored.
After hearing Rensis's words, King Gedelin slowly turned to look at him who was stopping at the door. After pondering for a second, he waved to him,
"Come here, Rensis..."
"yes."
Rensis did not walk around the curtains with healing magic like other maids, but directly opened them and headed straight towards the bed of Gedelin IX.
It wasn't until he got closer that Rensis suddenly realized that his father's appearance and spirit were much better today than before.
There was a half-opened sword box on his bed. From the half-opened sword box, Rensis's eyes were suddenly stabbed by a dazzling golden light, and he felt a stinging pain.
In an instant, he quickly withdrew his gaze and looked down at the ground.
"Father, why did you call me here?"
Gedelin IX looked straight at Prince Rensis with his head lowered in front of him, but his old palm stretched out from the quilt, and slowly pushed the sword box downwards. As the sword box got bigger and bigger, a handle shaped like
Weird, as if a relic made of gold was exposed in the air.
It was a long sword made of two twisted and intertwined golden substances. The hilt and the sword body seemed to be one body, and the sides of the sword body were as thin as cicada wings and extremely sharp.
It has no corresponding scabbard, and the fragile wooden sword box is the only means of restraint for this relic.
Just the moment it appeared, Rensis, who lowered his head, felt a wave of heat rushing towards his face, as if it was going to completely burn his beard, hair and skin. I don't know whether it was because of fear or high temperature.
The beads of sweat silently dripped down his cheeks until they fell to the ground.
"The Sword of Gedelin, a relic passed down from generation to generation by our Gedelin family, is a symbol of being a king. Every king has the responsibility to pass it completely to the hands of the next king..."
As soon as he heard his father's words, Rensis's throat surged for a moment. He thought that his father was going to pass on this sword of kings to him. A trace of greed flashed in his eyes and he also lightly
He raised his head slightly and looked at the relic.
But the next second, the golden light emitted by the sword burst out again, as if looking directly at the sun. Rensis's vision suddenly turned white, and then there was a strong pain.
"ah!
"
The tears and the stinging pain made Rensis cover his eyes in pain. He lowered his body and half-knelt on the ground, feeling a burning pain around his eyes.
But Gedlin IX, who was sitting on the bed, just silently held the Gedlin Sword and looked at the gloomy Prince Rensis in front of him, with an expected trace of disappointment on his old face.
After pausing for a second, he turned the sword over and pointed it at himself, keeping the light away from Rensis beside the bed.
"Father...Father..."
Gedelin IX sighed softly, stretched out his hand to touch the golden sword body that was incorruptible for thousands of years, and then said,
"Your mother passed away early. When I was young, I always had the ambition to restore the glory of Nali, so I ignored her. When she passed away, I suddenly felt that half of my world was missing. From this, I
Always make it up to you, her youngest son Rensis, for her apology."
Gedelin IX's eyes fell on the face of Rensis who raised his head. His eyes became red because of the golden light just now, and tears kept falling in his eyes.
"Your eyes are really similar to hers, so my eyes will always stay on you... But even so, I can no longer be arbitrary in the choice of the next king. What did you do to Dirk before?
I have seen all the stumbling blocks that Ste has made in secret. Your filial piety has been used in the wrong direction. This is also the result of my long-term connivance with you. I should apologize to everyone."
"When the Shivali delegation was attacked, people from the Secret Service and the Griffin Party talked to me about it. Your brother also noticed something was wrong. Do you think Hailsham and Marix went to the border for defense?
So no one will know about the little tricks you and Blake are doing during the inspection? It's just that all the forces don't want to get involved in the affairs of the Gedlin royal family...or rather, they wish! They wish you and your brother would fight non-stop!
"
Marix is the director of the Hidden Secret Bureau, and Hailsham is the great magician appointed by the royal family. Now that Shivali and Nali have reconciled, the previous border matters will also be renegotiated. Many powerful figures in Sannali have arrived.
Arriving at the border to establish new borders and defenses, Rensis sensed an opportunity.
As Gedlin IX spoke out his old and calm words one by one, Rensis's head lowered lower and lower, and his hands firmly grasped his robe.
"You don't even have the courage to look directly at the King's Sword. Rensis, how can you let me continue to prefer you? You don't have the courage of a king at all... Although Dexter is prone to hesitation sometimes, his
The ability is in line with this position; even your sister Yin Lisabai, she is a woman, but she has helped Nali guard the border for so many years, and also contributed to the reconciliation between us and Shivali..."
Gedelin IX did not finish his words, but the final meaning was already extremely obvious.
Among the three children born to the queen, Rensis is a loser who has accomplished nothing and always likes to do some small damage secretly...
But in fact, Rensis is like a bright mirror in his heart. Although he is not very smart, he still understands the basic principles.
When he asked Black to attack the Shivali delegation, Gedelin IX knew everything, but did not tell Dexter and the others that he was found out because of Dexter's investigation. This shows that his father was
He knew that he was looking for a way to live forever for him...
He had acquiesced in his actions at the time and had a glimmer of hope for Blake's immortality, but now he was blaming himself like a father who was disappointed in his children. That look made Rensis extremely angry.
Gedlin IX looked at Lensis who was silent in front of him, coughed, shook his head like a sigh, and then said,
"That's all, your brother is kind and he won't do anything to you... After I leave, you can honestly be a nobleman and the king's brother... just like your sister Yin Lisabai
That way, you and Yin Lisabai can live in peace."
"...yes."
Rensis lowered his head and trembled slightly to express his agreement.
But Gedelin IX didn't notice that his hands were holding his clothes tighter and tighter.
"Ahem, okay, now Black is willing to hand over his shares and leave Saint-Nali. After he gets the demi-human, the matter will be over... Where are your brother and sister? Where are they?
Come here, I have something to tell them."
Rensis lowered his head, his voice was very quiet and respectful,
"This morning, Blake burned down the Pink Pavilion and his mansion, and left the city for Nali Lake. My brother transferred the guards near Nali Lake and ignored his affairs.
..”
"Yesterday, Fisher Benavidez ignored his brother's advice and escaped with the help of his sister. The Son of the Sea is in his hands, and Blake should have gone to find him. Now the brother is going to cook at the Pink Restaurant
Regarding the funeral, my sister has not returned to the Golden Palace until this morning. I don’t know where she went..."
"Nonsense! Fisher is a Nali orphan without a father and mother. Just because Yin Lisabai favors him is enough for him to be grateful! After dragging him for so long, he still dares to help him like this this time... Ahem, hurry up
Send someone to call them two back!"
"Yes, I'll call him right away. But, father, I'm afraid you won't be able to see your brother until later..."
Rensis's words became lower and lower, and when King Gedelin IX coughed and finished the last sentence, Rensis's expression was gloomy, and he looked at his father in front of him as if he were looking at a dead man who was about to die.
"you..."
At the moment when a sense of fear surged in his heart, before the first word from Gedlin IX's mouth could be uttered, the man in front of him suddenly rose up ferociously, grabbed the old man's neck with both hands, and pulled
He pressed down firmly on the bed.
Gedelin IX was so weak and old that he couldn't even hold the golden sword tightly in his hand, so he weakly broke away and fell straight under the bed, making a metallic crunching sound.
The rootless golden fire spread slightly along the floor, but quickly extinguished because the owner of the relic, Gedelin IX, was already in a critical situation.
"What do you know! What do you know! I ask you, father!"
"Ahem...let it go..."
Rensis looked at the old man on the bed with his eyes almost popping out of his head with veins on his hands, and roared at him hysterically, as if he wanted to vent all his unwillingness for so many years.
"Do you think Dexter is a good person? Do you think he is the kind of guy who cares about brotherhood? That hypocrite, like you, is just a person who is harmonious and kind for outsiders to see! He is the best at it
It is contempt, contempt for everything about me, and denial of everything about me!”
"In the past twenty years, I have been like a waste that has accomplished nothing! He pretends to perform in front of you and the people, what a kind and righteous prince! In private, he pretends to mock me, as if I
He's just a piece of trash who takes advantage of your favor and does nothing!"
"Even Lisa White can give her an army and let her go out to do things, why can't I?! I'm not willing to give in! I'm not willing to give in! I'm going to kill you! And then I'm going to kill that hypocrite Dexter! I want you
All go to hell!"
On the bed, Gedelin IX's struggle became weaker and weaker. All the healing magic in the bedroom shone fiercely, exerting their ultimate effectiveness. This made Rensis's hand increase in strength.
A few points.
On the back of the bed, the portrait of King Gedlin IX and Queen Rensis, his biological mother, quietly looked at the violent Rensis on the bed. Under his mother's sight, Rensis was as violent as a wild beast.
The light of the golden sword beside the bed became darker and darker. At the next moment, all the healing magic in the entire palace was suddenly extinguished, and Rensis gasped and stepped back several steps, looking at the miserable death of Gedelin IX on the bed.
, was stunned and speechless for a moment.
He..killed his father?
He panted, and there was not much sadness in his eyes, only madness hollowed out by unwillingness and anger. He suddenly turned to the Gedlin Sword that fell on the ground and became dim again. He paused for a second or two, and slowly
He stretched out his hand towards the sword.
The moment his arm touched the sword, the sword lit up with golden light again.
"The Sword of the King..."
Rensis also laughed crazily, raised the light sword, and pointed it at Gedelin IX who had stopped breathing on the bed.
"The magnanimity of a king... As long as you die, it will be mine! I will also kill that bastard Dexter! Let him accompany you!"
"Rensis! What have you done?"
Not long after he raised his sword, there was a sudden sound of armor clashing outside the palace. Rensis was slightly startled, then slowly turned his head to look outside the palace, and used the golden sword to completely cut off the healing magic that blocked his sight.
break.
Outside the door, Dexter, who was wearing a brown suit with a stern face, took the lead in leading a group of knights into the palace. Before he roughly broke into the palace, through the knights and Dexter who were like steel walls, Rensis saw the expression on his face from behind.
Yin Sabel and her brothers looked at her with pale faces and disbelief.
Their expressions when they looked at themselves were like bloodthirsty beasts...
"Rensis! You actually killed your father so frantically?! You damn, ungrateful beast! Come on, catch him. I will announce your heinous crimes to all the Nari people."
!”
"hehe..."
Looking at Dexter standing in front of the crowd, Rensis smiled mockingly, but raised the golden sword in his hand and pointed it straight at him. When the golden Gedlin relic pointed it at him, even if it was a chance of victory,
Dexter, who was holding it, was also breathless.
That thing has a natural restraint relationship with the Narli people, and the reputation of King Gedelin I's sword is not exaggerated.
"Crazy? Beast? Yes, I am...but do you think you are any good Dexter?!"
He pointed his golden sword outside the palace and roared angrily at the knights and Yin Sabel behind him,
"There are always knights and maids guarding my father's palace, but not when I came this time! Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? Didn't you take all those knights away just to make it easier for me to attack?
! Are you satisfied that I have killed him now? I tell you, not only will I kill him, I will also kill you and Yin Lisabai. Those of you who look down on me should all die!"
Tomato Novel
Rensis had completely fallen into madness, his face was pale, but his eyes were frighteningly red.
Dexter's face, who was standing among the knights, changed slightly, but looking at Rensis, who was at the end of his rope, the slightly changed expression quickly turned back to calm. He spoke lightly to the knight next to him.
He waved his hand lightly and shouted,
"Stop talking nonsense and subdue him quickly!"
"come!"
Rensis held the Gedelin sword with both hands. The golden light of the sword became more and more intense, and at the same time it emitted layers of extremely terrifying heat. The lines of light climbed along Rensis's arm,
Soon a faint line was left on his arm.
The next second, he suddenly raised the sword in his hand and aimed it at the knight in front of him. The golden sword caused a large number of rootless golden flames to rise in the air for no reason.
The terrifying golden flame was like a tangible extension of the golden sword, instantly turning into a terrifying wave of air that spread forward.
In an instant, all the healing magic above the palace was burned by the terrifying high temperature, and golden high-temperature flames burst out one after another.
"Crash!"
The leader Dexter's face changed slightly, he raised his hand to the knight next to him and said,
"Protect!"
After saying this, he turned back to look at Yin Sabel and her brothers who were standing behind at a loss. He hesitated for a second before letting the maid next to him take them back.
"Take them back to their rooms!"
"I...I won't leave, let me go!"
Yin Sabel was dragged away from the scene by the maid. After that, the knights standing at the door of the palace raised the knight swords full of magic lines in their hands. One of the complex lines was lit up with their will, and then smoothly
The lines slowly gathered into a dark blue protective magic.
"Go to hell! Go to hell! Go to hell!"
Rensis held up the relic that exuded terrifying light with both hands, and stood in front of the corpse of Gedelin IX, confronting Dexter and the others, but the flames had quickly ignited the entire palace.
Seeing that his father's body was about to be burned by the flames, Dexter still gently squeezed the ring in his hand.
Where Rensis could not see, human-shaped shadows slowly stood up behind the palace. Those shadows only had a simple human shape, but they were extremely strong, and were equipped with a long dagger in their hands.
That is a relic, a guard created by [Shadow Guard].
This kind of shadow is actually very powerful in combat, and is usually responsible for protecting the members of the Gedlin royal family. The relic itself is kept with Dexter.
Yin Lisabai is already an adult and is also the commander-in-chief of the army, so she does not need this kind of protection.
Although Rensis has no ability, he is very angry!
Not wanting to be protected by Dexter, he drove this thing away early, so when Dexter caught him in the healing room, there was nothing around him except a few attendants.
The shadow guards raised the daggers in their hands towards Rensis, and then each shadow turned into a substantial viscous substance and extended in his direction. A shadow entangled his footsteps, and a shadow
It wrapped around his arm, and a larger shadowy maw suddenly appeared behind him and wanted to swallow him whole.
"Go away!"
Rensis roared angrily and swung his sword again at the surrounding shadows. Huge golden flames sprayed out like waves towards the surroundings. The unstoppable high temperature caused the shadows to be driven away, but those shadows could not be killed at all. If Germany was not killed,
Kester's words to kill.
"Get away! Get away! Get away!"
Dexter looked at Rensis, who was constantly struggling and resisting during the scene. His face was slightly cold, and then he softly whispered to the knight beside him,
"...Kill him."
"yes!"
The knight raised the giant sword in his hand, and one of the complex patterns engraved on it was lit up again. Then he pointed at Rensis, and an illusory blue sword flew away in response.
It stabbed straight into Rensis's shoulder, punching a bloody hole in his body.
"Dexter! I'm going to kill you!"
The injured Rensis turned even paler. He gritted his teeth and stopped caring about the shadow behind him. Instead, he raised the sword in his hand and rushed towards Dexter desperately.
The golden sword in his hand instantly burst out with light like the sun along with his blood and anger. In Dexter's shocked eyes, the flame instantly burned the top of the entire palace.
"Protect His Highness Dexter!"
Countless knights raised their shields and stood in front of Dexter. With a crazy smile, Rensis rushed forward desperately, but before he could take a step or two, Rensis suddenly stopped.
He fell to the ground under control.
He turned his head to look at his hands holding the sword in surprise, only to see that Gedelin's golden sword had completely burned his hands without knowing when, and the dazzling golden light had completely penetrated into his body, burning him.
All the blood and internal organs in the body were burned clean.
He was lucky to have been able to hold the sword and fight for so long, but now the two steps he took toward Dexter were the last straw that broke his body.
At this moment, Rensis's legs had turned into ashes like dry firewood. Only the upper body of Rensis was left, and his eyes were dull as he watched the golden light continue to spread towards his body, and he
But can't stop it...
Is it going to kill me?
Rensis keenly felt that this relic was rejecting him and Rensis Gedlin.
"Back off! Don't get close to him!"
Seeing the terrifying golden flames burning on Rensis' body, Dexter shouted to the knight beside him.
The entire palace of Gedelin IX has been burned, and together with the body of Gedelin IX, it will soon disappear from this world.
Rensis, whose body was constantly burning, was unable to resist. Before he died, he could only turn around in pain on the ground. In a sea of golden fire, Rensis's limbs completely turned into dry wood after doing this.
, lost feeling.
A drop of unwilling tears fell down his cheek, but Rensis felt nothing and still looked straight at the oil painting that was burning in a sea of fire.
The golden flames had burned away the part of the young Gedelin IX in the painting, but Queen Nera beside him was still looking at Rensis quietly.
Before he could remember, his mother had passed away, and now he only had a little impression of her in his mind...
"Is it the magnanimity of a king..."
"Mother..."
This faint murmur of unknown meaning could no longer be heard by anyone but himself.
Because in the next second, huge golden flames had swallowed up the entire palace. Dexter covered his mouth and retreated into the courtyard, but looked at the mess in front of him and watched it slowly disappear in the flames.
Rensis and his father, his eyes still showed a little sadness.
Of course, in the planning theory, you can arbitrarily check off the names of your younger brother and father who are hindering your progress, but when your loved ones actually die in front of you, you will still feel some inexplicable loss.
He sighed softly and sat on the grass in despair.
The flame of the golden sword burned faster than any other flame, and soon, only the skeleton and pitch-black ashes were left in the huge palace.
The corpses of Rensis and Gedlin IX were gone without a trace. Only the golden sword, which was still shining with golden light, stood on the spot, looking quietly at Dexter in front of him.
"boom!"
Just when Dexter was about to make a move, a loud noise that echoed throughout the world suddenly came from the direction of Lake Nali in the distance, making Dexter look in that direction in disbelief.
