As late at night approaches, the majestic and splendid Elysée Palace is still bright and bright.
In a silent hall, several magic crystal lamps emitted a faint, cold light, and the light was projected onto the scarlet carpet, making the darkness hidden inside deeper.
There are two chairs, one inlaid with crystal and silver, high up, and the other simple and elegant, sitting next to it.
Louis XV sat high up, his slightly narrowed eyes naturally exuding a vague imperial power. Even though the lady below had never been afraid of him, she couldn't help but feel scared in the face of this irresistible pressure.
Somewhat nervous.
The steady voice came down slowly, with some coldness in it: "I mobilized the Phantom Guards, I mobilized the Knights of Glory, I summoned Archbishop Salo, and I acquiesced to you and Roland
Joining forces, I even invited Teacher Heidfield for you, Catherine, I can do everything I can for you..."
Although the voice was indifferent and heavy, everyone could hear the helplessness and doting contained in Louis XV's words. And the only person who could be treated like this by this always cold-blooded and ruthless emperor was the one who was brought up by him and had his most beloved ones.
Even his biological children, except for his beloved sister who was orphaned by his mother, did not receive such treatment.
Of course, if he just doted on Catherine, Louis might not have mobilized such a huge force, but Catherine's goal happened to be something he was worried about recently...
There was a slight pause in his voice, and Louis' eyes were a little complicated. He was silent for a long time, and then said: "Catherine, I will do everything for you, but you have to promise me one thing, otherwise even if my mother is here, I will do it for you."
I won't let you do this!"
When it comes to her mother, Catherine knows that Louis' attitude is extremely serious, and she is also very clear about what he is worried about. Following Louis' words, Catherine said softly: "Brother, don't worry, I won't do anything random. This time the spy
Kill, I have already made a new plan, and it will definitely not be launched in the City of Glory!"
Except for formal occasions, Catherine always called Louis affectionately.
Louis snorted softly in his heart, plan? Is it useful to tell a plan to a necromancer who is fighting against the three powerful saints alone and still has the upper hand?
However, he remained extremely patient and said nothing, allowing Catherine to continue.
The voices in the hall suddenly became lowered, and among the thin whispers, Louis' face gradually began to relax.
………………
The sun gradually sets in the west, but the crimson brilliance continues.
In the most glorious afterglow of the setting sun, the majestic Steel City is immersed in deep glory.
As if there was no premonition of the coming shocking battle, the defense of the City of Glory remained as calm as ever. The city guards patrolled the city wall unhurriedly, and the flow of people and cars coming and going at the city gate was generally smooth.
.There is absolutely no urgency at all.
In the far distance, a shadow slowly floated over. However, it did not enter the City of Glory directly, but stopped under the shadow of a big tree.
Staring coldly at the huge beast in the distance, as calm as a mountain, as turbulent as the sea, with incomparably majestic momentum, even though Nilak had no good impressions of it, he couldn't help but praise it, even if it was the capital of the Undying Empire, it was nothing more than that.
!
While admiring in my heart, I was also slightly excited. We are finally here! After running around in circles for more than a week and traveling twice the distance, the final destination has finally arrived...
Instead of rushing into the city, Nilac lingered in the shadow of the trees and observed the City of Glory motionlessly.
As the capital of the Empire of Light, the City of Glory is not only a prosperous central city, but also a giant military fortress. It also houses the Holy Sophia Cathedral, the Holy See's most sacred building...
Saint Sophia Cathedral is the largest church in the Holy See of Light. As a direct temple to the Lord God of Light, it has been a sacred place that has performed miracles several times. Its status in the Holy See of Light is probably only achieved by St. Peter's Cathedral, the headquarters of the Holy See.
above it.
And even Louis XV couldn't figure out what was hidden in such a sacred place!
His eyes passed through the huge city wall that was nearly twenty meters high, and fell on the majestic building in the distance that towered into the clouds and faintly glowed with majestic holy power. Nilac's eyes shrank slightly, but his mental power did not follow him...
…This should be Hagia Sophia…
According to the intelligence data, Hagia Sophia is a more mysterious and sinister place than the Elysee Palace of the Empire of Light. Regardless of whether it is necessary or not, Nilak is not prepared to mess with it...
The sun finally set, and the sky dimmed. The shadow slowly moved towards the avenue that led directly to the city gate. A luxurious carriage drove over. The shadow flashed through the gaps between the wooden boards and squeezed gently into the carriage.
, and then lingered in the shadows, motionless.
Concentrating his breath and mental strength, gradually, the carriage approached the city gate.
It was obvious that the owner of the carriage was a person of high status. Even though it was already evening, the soldiers guarding the city gate still did not check them in detail. They just casually glanced at the coachman's family emblem and opened the city gate.
As the carriage slowly advanced in this strange city, the strong aura of holy power filling the air made Nilac feel slightly uncomfortable. It really wasn't a good place!
At the corner of a street, the shadow squeezed out of the carriage lightly, and then disappeared silently into the darkness of the City of Glory.

Renault Business Group Bright Empire Office.
After finishing the day's work, Fatty Karen took a good rest outside, and then returned to his residence unhurriedly with his charming old sweetheart.
Habitually, Karen glanced at a flower pot placed on the windowsill, her eyes stagnated for a moment, and then returned to her natural state.
The fat hand slapped the old friend's plump ass hard, and the fat man laughed lustfully: "Baby, go and wash up first, I'll get something good, and I'll give you a surprise later!"
The old sweetheart's eyes lit up. Every time the fat man talked about a surprise, he would not only satisfy her physically, but also give her something extremely precious...
With a sound, the old sweetheart's red lips pursed hard on Karen's fat face and she rushed into the bathroom obediently.
There was a splash of water, and among the sound was the seductive moan of his old sweetheart. The fat man secretly cursed a slut, and walked towards a room with a calm expression.
He gently pushed the door open and carefully closed it. There was no light and the room was dark.
Without any intention of lighting up the ***, the fat man sat down on a chair familiarly, tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table a few times, and a black shadow suddenly rose...
"I need the latest information from Wiki!" The indifferent voice contained no nonsense. At the same time as the voice, an emerald green magic crystal floated from the black shadow to Karen.
The magic crystal was dazzling, but the fat man's eyes did not change at all. He gently took the magic crystal and put it skillfully into a secret drawer on the table. Karen smiled: "Please sit down, I have been collecting news from the wiki."
, I believe you will be satisfied.”
His public identity is the head of the City of Glory branch of the Ares Empire's Renault Merchant Group, but Fatty is also a secret agent of the Hand of Dis, directly affiliated with Gourcuff.
However, as the organization's deepest nail in the City of Glory, Karen's life is much easier than that of ordinary intelligence officers.
There is nothing that must be investigated, and there is no information that must be reported on time. All Karen needs to do is to hand over the information he collected to Gurku when he returns to the headquarters of the Renault Business Group to report on his work.
husband.
The relationship between him and the organization is not so much one of affiliation but cooperation.
The organization provided maximum support to his family's interests in the God of War Empire, and he would from time to time pass on information from the Empire of Light to the organization.
This time, Wiki's whereabouts were reported to the organization by him a month ago.
"Vicky still lives in Lady Catherine's mansion, but the guards in the mansion have been taken over by the most elite Knights of Glory in the Holy Knights of Light. And in the past month, Vicky has not been out."
Knight of Glory! Nilac's heart moved: "Besides Knight of Glory, what other big names has Catherine been in contact with recently?"
"She seems to be relatively close to the Minister of Finance. In addition, someone once saw her standing with a red-robed bishop..."
In order to avoid risks, Fatty never compiled the information into documents, but his memory was amazing, and nothing he discovered was omitted.
As he spoke in detail, gradually, all the information he knew about the Wiki was delivered to Nilac's hands.
After asking all he needed to know, Nilac nodded slightly. He was quite satisfied with the information, and then silently turned into a shadow and disappeared into the room.
"This should be the legendary Great Elder..." Thinking in his mind, Karen still had a smile on his face, but he sat still. For a long time, there was no movement in the room, and then he opened another secret drawer and picked it up casually.
He took out a crystal gem and walked out of the room slowly.
The sound of water in the bathroom continued. The fat man undressed his robe and rushed in with a lewd smile. Naturally, the crystal gem caused his old sweetheart to scream in surprise again.
Enthusiasm and desire aroused at the same time, and the shadow came, leaving no trace here.
……………………
Catherine's mansion is an old, simple and artistic palace. It was originally a palace of Louis XV, but since Catherine took a fancy to it, she "forcibly" deprived it of it.
As a former imperial palace, the defense force here is quite strong. At this time, dozens of honorary knights who are supposed to guard important places inside the Elysee Palace have been added. I am afraid that even birds cannot invade the sky above it.
.
A vague divine power enveloped the entire mansion, but it was not strong at all, and most people could not even feel its existence.
"One, two, three!" The shadows slowly flowed around the outside of the sacred power. As they flowed, Nilac was also sensing the faint power fluctuations coming from inside.
Catherine was indeed prepared for his arrival. In a small mansion, there were only three ninth-level strong men who did not deliberately restrain their auras. As for whether there were other strong men with hidden powers, they did not use their mental power to explore.
Nilac is not sure either!
The shadow nimbly floated in from the back wall of the palace, clinging to the darkest corners, carefully and slowly flowing through the gaps of the sacred power.
Karen has been to the palace before. According to his investigation and speculation, Vicky's residence should be in the guest room in the back garden of the palace.
He drifted through several corridors silently, and the guards did not notice his arrival at all, but then, Nilak's movements stopped again.
The guest room is a two-story building made of large stones, simple and solemn. At this time, its main body is sealed by a light barrier of holy power. At the only entrance and exit, there is a group of knights in silver armor.
Guarding. These knights all exuded a strong aura of holy power. Even though it was late at night, they did not relax at all.
The knight's silver armor is engraved with a bloody sword and shield symbolizing glory. He is the glorious knight guarding the important place of the palace!
A guest building can be guarded by a team of Glory Knights. In the middle of the guest room, there is a faint power wave of about level 9 intensity coming out... Nilac's heart moved, it seems that Wiki should be here!
However, he did not act immediately. The Holy Power Barrier and the Glory Knight worked perfectly together, almost completely sealing off the entire building. It was simply impossible to enter the building without alerting them.
Attack? Or wait?
Nilac's heart fluctuated. If he attacked forcefully, the power of the guest house would be completely unable to stop him. If Vicki was inside, he would definitely die!
But, what if she is not inside? After all, it is just a guess that she is inside!
And once they attack by force, they will definitely alert the enemy, which is tantamount to telling everyone openly that they are not interested.
We have arrived at the City of Glory... If Wiki is not there, I am afraid that she will never be found again in this City of Glory!
Slowly, the shadow retracted into the depths of darkness, still standing guard!
If Vicky is inside, she will show up sooner or later. It has been like this for several months, and it is not enough to wait for this little longer.
And as soon as she shows up, even if there is a strong man from the holy realm by her side, Nilac is absolutely sure that he can kill her in an instant.
The necromancer Lao Shen retreated into the depths of darkness, but there was some turbulence in a dead secret room in the palace.
"He's here! The terrifying aura I felt that day has appeared again! However, my mental skills are still a bit weak. I can only feel that he is coming, but I can't find his specific location." A voice slowly said
The sound rang out, and it was the psychic priest who noticed the appearance of Nilac in the woods that day. As the rarest and rarest existence in the Church of Light, and even often appears for generations, this kind of priest who gives up all power and only pursues psychic skills is very important to him.
Dangerous smells are naturally sensitive...
Next to the spiritual priest, an old man in red robe frowned slightly: "It did not touch the holy power barrier I set up, nor did it alert the Knights of Glory..."
As if waiting for something, no one spoke, and the secret room fell silent again.
After a while, a cold female voice rang out: "Since he has been here for so long, he should have found the Wiki. He has not made any move for a long time. Maybe he cannot determine the specific location of the Wiki..."
The woman was naturally Catherine. She had been waiting sleeplessly in the secret room for several days. The deep fatigue on her face could no longer be concealed. After a slight pause, her eyes relaxed on the few people in the secret room.
He swept across slowly and finally stopped on a tall middle-aged man in white robes, and continued: "Teacher, I asked the guards to replace the knights of glory in the name of taking turns. You should also prepare!"
Catherine's teacher, apart from Heidfield, who once taught her and the leader of the Knights Templar of the Holy See of Light under Louis XV, and one of the ten strongest men in the mainland, would be no one else.
Heidfeld smiled and nodded: "Your Highness, you can arrange it. As long as he is infected with the Siren Fragrance, we will leave the rest to us."
The smile of the middle-aged man contained a strange charm. Even though Catherine could not wait to kill the enemy who killed her husband and son, she could not help but feel relieved.
Catherine nodded silently and quickly turned around and left.
Floating slowly in the depths of darkness, there were several powerful auras in the palace. Nilac did not dare to scan the building with his mental power wantonly. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he floated towards the entrance of the building again.
But he saw several guards in full-body steel armor walking over quickly. The leader of the guards held a token in his hand and said respectfully to the Knight of Glory. Nilac heard clearly. He was here to adjust the defense!
A knight of glory took the token, checked it briefly, handed it back to the armored guard, gave a military salute, and led several others away quickly.
"Is God helping me? Or..." Thinking carefully, the steel-armored guards were sending off the Glory Knight. Before they could set up defenses, Nilac floated in and sneaked into the building silently.
I don't know when, several figures in the secret room appeared outside. A woman slowly closed her eyes, and a faint green light emerged from her body. Suddenly she said: "He went in, I can feel it,
Siren Muxiang is moving rapidly!"
The old man in red robe and Heidfeld looked at each other and said slowly: "Wait a minute, if that woman is not dead, no matter how hard we chase, she will not leave the imperial capital easily..."
For everyone in the Empire of Light, there is no doubt that they would choose the former between sacrificing a foreign defector and wreaking havoc on the City of Glory.
Catherine remained silent amidst their voices. Vicky had already been designated as a victim by her. Even though she was indeed of great use value, as long as she could successfully avenge her son and husband, she would not do this.
What's wrong with interests... After all, she is not the kind of person who pursues power extremely...
There were almost no guards in the guest building, and the few sleepy maids were naturally not alert to the shadow's arrival.
Sneaking in through the crack in the door, exiting again, and checking more than a dozen rooms in a row, the target was finally found.
Compared with the radiance of the past, Vicky's face had already lost its expression. It was already late at night, and for some reason, she still hadn't fallen asleep.
Sitting on a chair, Vicki's eyes seemed to be a little absent-minded, and she would sigh softly from time to time.
As a powerful person on the ground, how could she not notice the change in Catherine's attitude towards her in recent days!
"Wiki, are you regretting it?"
A voice suddenly sounded from behind her, and almost at the same time as the voice, a big hand covered her head, and the power of death instantly completely suppressed any resistance she might have had.
The familiar voice made Wei Wei's body tremble suddenly, but he gradually regained his composure, and smiled lightly: "There is nothing to regret, you are a winner or a loser, since I misjudged your strength, I deserved to lose... Haha,
But you are coming too slowly. I have been waiting for you here for several days. Take action. Since Catherine used me as bait to lure you out, it is time for them to come. If you don’t take action, you will have no chance!"
Is it a bait...Nilak's expression did not change at all. With seven dark powers in his body, if he ran away with all his strength, no one could catch up!
Sensing Wiki's desire to die, Nilac snorted: "Betraitors will be betrayed sooner or later!"
With a slight exertion in his hand, Wiki's vitality immediately dissipated without a trace. A person who is extremely harmful to the organization must not stay in the world!
As soon as Wiki died, several incomparably majestic auras of holy power suddenly rose into the sky, and the blazing light almost completely drove away the darkness above the City of Glory.
