This hotel was booked by Aranza. In addition to him, Hancock, Carew, Chen Xi, and Cyril, there were nearly twenty soldiers from the Norland Army. Their main tasks were reconnaissance and response.
Hancock pulled the little girl in front of him. The little girl was not afraid of the cold and arrogant Hancock. When she looked at her, she also opened her curious eyes.
"Nice little girl."
Hancock suddenly smiled, a rare kind smile. It was the first time for Aranza to see such a smile on Hancock's face, so he was stunned for a while like everyone else. Hancock
Ke called two Norland Army soldiers and ordered: "You two take her back to Norland City first, otherwise we may not be able to take care of her when the battle begins."
"Norland City?"
The little girl had doubts on her face, but then she felt a burst of surprise. She excitedly held Hancock's hand and asked, "Is it Noland City in Kay State? The territory of the son of the King of Heroes?"
"uh-huh."
Hancock covered his mouth and chuckled, saying, "Little guy, it seems there is something more surprising for you here."
At this time, Aranza squatted down in front of the little girl in cooperation. He stretched out his hand to pull down the wide hood, revealing his white hair and slightly bearded face, and said: "Well, I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Aranza Lane.
, what people call the son of the Hero King."
"Wow!"
The little girl immediately screamed in surprise. Stars popped up in her eyes when she looked at Aranza. She even forgot what to say and just tied her eyes firmly to Aranza.
Aranza patted the little girl's head affectionately and said, "Well, where's your name?"
The little girl's expression was stagnant. She suddenly lowered her head, but Aranza could feel her emotions through soul induction. It was hesitation and struggle. After a long time, she said intermittently: "I...I...don't like that...
…name……"
"Well, it's okay."
Aranza stopped her from continuing. He called two Norland Army soldiers to his side, handed the little girl into their hands, gave a few instructions to the two soldiers, and then said to the little girl: "Well, you go with me first.
The two uncles will go back to Noland City, and after we finish handling the matters here, we will go back to see you."
The little girl seemed to hear the caution in Aranza's words, so she nodded cautiously in agreement. Afterwards, Aranza and others sent her to the entrance of the hotel and watched her and the two Norland Army soldiers leave.
When the little girl and the two soldiers disappeared around the corner at the end of the street, Aranza breathed out a breath. He turned to look at his companions, his eyes passing over them one by one, and finally fell on a Nolander.
The army soldier asked: "Well, has the news over at the Central Square been ascertained?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
The Norland Army soldier saluted respectfully and replied: "Four strong men from the Sanctuary have been confirmed to appear in the central square, including Vera, the attendant of Alpha Lane, and Dolan, the leader of the Seal Broken Wings Mercenary Group, who possesses the 'Rock Armor'
Osiris Lane, the strong man in the sanctuary who specializes in defense and is known as the Lord, and Urata Lane, the Brave Flame."
Aranza was familiar with these names. He nodded and said to his companions: "Well, the other party has three warriors and a magician. It's not too much trouble. Let's proceed as planned...
It’s just that the leader of the Sealed Broken Wings mercenary group, Dolan, has failed in her mission, so I didn’t expect that she is still here.”
"Perhaps she is waiting for you to appear so that she can complete the task?"
Hancock interjected, his face hidden under the hood showing a rare seriousness, and said: "The other party must be hiding other strong men from the Holy Domain secretly, so we have to be careful."
Aranza's expression under the hood is also rare and solemn. The hood may not be able to escape the induction of the strong men in the Sanctuary, but it can hide from ordinary eyes. In order to avoid the induction of the strong Sanctuary, they are also attached by Chen Xi.
With the necessary breath concealment magic, Chen Xi's magic source is pure divine power. Even though it is a transformed non-attribute magic element when she casts it, the magic she casts still has unexpected bonuses.
Aranza nodded and continued to give instructions: "If there is an accident, everyone should run for their lives. But, Chen Xi, you are responsible for taking Cyril away. Your attributeless teleportation array should be able to avoid the spatial confinement."
Chen Xi agreed and asked at the same time: "What about you?"
"Well, don't worry about me."
The two suns in the sky have already embraced each other, but have not yet completely merged. They are an ellipse that emits light. When they merge into a complete circle, it will be the moment to execute Ilita.
In the cold winter, the role of the sun seems to be only to observe time and provide lighting, and few people can find warmth from its rays.
When Aranza approached the central square, four powerful soul points immediately rushed into his soul induction. The two familiar points were naturally Vera and Dolan, and the other two were two from the Ryan family.
The strong men of the Sanctuary, Osiris Lane and Urata Lane.
Aranza's brows couldn't help but frown, but then she relaxed a little, and said to her partner standing behind her: "Well, I didn't find anything unusual."
"careful."
Hancock, who was standing behind him, also carefully used magic to survey the surroundings. She also did not find any powerful aura except the four known strong men from the Sanctuary. However, she did not relax, and a trace of sweat fell from her forehead.
, warned: "Just because it can't be sensed doesn't mean it doesn't exist."
The central square has been surrounded by a large circle of people. A round platform has been built in the center of the circle. At this moment, there is only a strong man standing on the round platform. A little glimpse of his strength reveals that he is a senior warrior.
Carrying a meter-long broadsword on his shoulder, this execution knife has always only drank the blood of traitors of the Lane family. The baptism of countless blood has covered up his sharp edge, but it is even more terrifying.
Aranza and Hancock were crowded in the crowd in front of the round platform, but Cyril and others were not here. Aranza looked up and looked behind the round platform. It was a high platform that was not too high but luxuriously decorated. This was Ryan
It is a special auditorium for family members. The auditorium is divided into two floors. The first floor is crowded with dignitaries and their wives in the well-dressed Lane family; while the second floor has only a few people.
Aranza saw the current head of the Lane family, Duke Alsis, sitting in the center of the second floor. He always looked sleepy in Aranza's memory, sitting lazily on the largest and most luxurious chair in the room.
UP. Only this time, the people standing beside him were no longer beautiful maids, but two powerful men from the holy realm, Osiris and Uttara.
Osiris, known as the "Lord of Rock Armor", is extremely stout. He is proficient in earth and rock combat skills and is famous for his defense. Uttara, known as the "Brave Flame", is different from other magicians.
He is not as stout as Osiris, but he is not much different. He is good at using fire magic, and he is also a good melee fighter. Perhaps a magic swordsman is a suitable profession for him.
At this time, both of them were wearing heavy and gorgeous armor, and their golden robes embroidered with the Lane family crest made their images look majestic.
Sitting not far from Alsis was Alpha Lane, who made Aranza grit his teeth. He was smiling and his eyes fell quietly on the round platform, waiting for the execution to begin. Behind him,
They were Vera, who was standing upright, and Dolan, who was carrying a huge half-wing-shaped scythe and had no visible expression.
In addition to these people, Aranza also found many familiar figures in the upper auditorium, such as the elders of the Lane family, but next to Goethe, whom Aranza was most familiar with, there was no trace of Nice, who was the founding king. He had passed away.
.And another friend of Goethe, Lampmann, did not attend the public execution of his granddaughter.
At this time, Goethe was like a lonely old man. His companions who shared roughly the same position with him left him one by one. Although the remaining elders recognized Goethe's status as the leader of the elders, they had never been with Goethe.
Aranza suddenly felt a little guilty. The Hero King line of the Lane family, although it has such an indelible figure as the Hero King, is a new branch of the Lane family.
The predecessor of this branch was separated from the founding king line. Before officially joining the hero king line, Goethe was also a member of the founding king line. After the death of the hero king, the members of this emerging branch
, especially Aranza's distant relatives, most of them chose to return to the line of the founding king. The larger return came after Aranza was kicked out of the Lane family, and the identity of the members was concentrated among Aranza's close relatives.
Only Goethe is still insisting on defending the Hero-King line, which only has its name, and looking forward to its rise. Perhaps, if it were not for his identity as the leader of the elders, the Hero-King line would have been annexed by the founding king line, along with it.
of glory.
"Don't be distracted, Aranza."
Hancock seemed to notice something strange about Aranza and warned him.
Aranza came back to his senses, smiled awkwardly, and at the same time withdrew his gaze and turned his gaze to the sky - the two suns had combined into a complete and regular circle, which meant that Elita's execution was about to begin.
"Boom!"
At this time, a huge drumbeat suddenly sounded in the venue, and the noisy crowd quieted down as if in tacit agreement, and thousands of pairs of eyes turned to the round platform in the center of the square.
"Everyone!"
A new figure appeared on the round platform, which was the head butler of the Lane family. He was blessed with amplification magic, and his slightly sharp tone covered the entire audience. He opened his arms and said: "Thank you all for coming here to witness. Here, the Lane family
Its traitors will be executed to announce to the world and to warn the members of the Lane family of the Lane family’s insistence on honor, unity, and determination to defend the unity of the family and the outside world!”
His voice became louder and louder, and his tone became more and more impassioned: "Any betrayer, no matter their identity, we will end their lives, no matter their status, we will crush their ambitions!"
