"You, you killed him?" Sophia's clear and charming voice trembled obviously, revealing strong shock and panic. This was probably the first time she saw a familiar aristocratic young man being killed alive in front of her eyes, and the wounds were hideous.
Blood was flowing and his eyes were staring, as if he had not expected that he would die under Duda's sword. Shouldn't he be teleported out by the magic circle after being seriously injured?
Lucien was used to seeing dead people, and he had killed more than one intelligent creature with his own hands. At this time, he was not panicked, disgusted, nor was he greatly shocked. He just raised his head and looked at the dome of the underground palace as if he couldn't bear to look directly. The magic just now
The strange changes in the formation eliminated the effect of near-death teleportation?
Is this a change in the underground palace's energy after receiving some stimulation, or is it someone's deliberate change? If it is a deliberate change, what is the purpose of the conspirators behind the scenes? After such a change, will Duke Plantagenet, Count Nurembeck and others outside
Is it impossible to observe every move in the underground palace?
If this is the case, it may be good news for me. I can show my strength without reservation and make all the plots and schemes of the children disappear.
Facing the absolute suppression of strength, it only takes a short time for him to reach the secret room, open the secret passage, enter the inner layers of the palace of Sun King Thanos, and perform magic rituals.
But the question is, where is the golden knight in the underground palace? Where is Midalon, the "Crown of Glory"? This is the most critical reason why Lucien chose to go with Sophia instead of going straight into the secret room!
Duda put his hands on the ground and backed away in panic, regardless of the blood on the ground: "I, I didn't, I didn't want to kill him, I, I just planned to defeat him and seriously injure him. But he, unexpectedly, stood there stupidly
There, he refused to teleport away, and he actually refused to teleport away! It’s not my fault, it’s all his own fault! It’s not my fault!”
He was shouting intermittently, stammering and hysterically, his eyes were glassy and he kept shaking his head, as if he was crazy.
Post-traumatic stress disorder. For some reason, this psychological term suddenly popped up in Lucien's mind. It seemed that this was Duda's first murder, and he killed a familiar nobleman without any psychological preparation.
It is conceivable that this young man will be shocked and mentally disturbed.
"Calm down. Duda, calm down. This is not your fault. There is something wrong with the magic circle in the underground palace." Lucien has recently focused on studying "illusion", and after frequently using deformation masks, he is worried that he will have psychological problems.
, so I have been reading "Behavioral Psychology" and other related books. At this time, I was very "expert" in "pacifying" Duda.
The gentle sound like a warm breeze seemed to ease the tension and panic of Sophia next to her. She glanced at "Bolak" a little confused and a little surprised, as if she didn't expect him to face death and the shocking changes in the underground palace.
He is so calm that people around him can't help but calm down as well.
All kinds of emotions flashed through, and Sophia spoke softly to help enlighten Duda: "Yes. This has nothing to do with you, there is something wrong with the magic circle."
"Yes. It's not my fault! It's a problem with the magic circle!" Hearing Lucien's explanation, Duda was like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, going crazy.
After a few words of comfort, and seeing that Duda's mood had calmed down a bit, Lucien took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "Can you tell us what exactly happened just now?"
Duda, who was eager to get rid of his guilt, recounted what had happened intermittently like he was recalling a nightmare.
After entering the underground palace, he appeared in a nearby bedroom, and then walked deeper into the palace according to the layout changes prompted by the map, trying to make peace with Alten and others, but he didn't expect that he felt a little resentful and different from usual here.
An aristocratic young man from different camps met on a narrow road. Immediately, the two men's blood boiled and they started fighting with full fighting spirit.
For the first time, Duda fought without any fancy, no mentor, and no help. The more he fought, the more excited he became. He brought out the bestiality and fighting talent in his body. After a hearty fight, he defeated his opponent.
With the long sword, he stepped forward and slashed at the opponent's neck without any scruples. After all, he would be teleported out by the magic circle after being seriously injured. There were several celestial knights outside, and there was no shortage of healing potions.
However, the feeling under the long sword did not disappear, and the blood spurted out splashed all over Duda's head and face, while the bastard who was usually very annoying stared at him with a look of disbelief, horror and despair, and then
With this look in his eyes, he was so soft to the ground.
Those despairing gray eyes, lifeless and lifeless, were deeply engraved in Duda's mind, making him frightened whenever he recalled them.
After listening to Duda's account and verifying the time points, Lucien confirmed that this was the moment when he sensed the change in the magic circle.
"Judging from the scope, it was the period when you thought someone was following us." Sophia also remembered "Bolak"'s previous abnormalities, pulled him aside, and talked in a low voice so as not to be heard by Duda.
Lucien was not afraid of the wind and dangled his tongue and said: "After I awakened the Silver Moon bloodline, my premonition of danger became stronger and stronger. Maybe the star bloodline has this characteristic, after all, it is related to the astrology."
Sophia had no doubts about this explanation, and said pitifully: "I didn't expect that such a change would occur after entering the trial. Borak, who do you think did it? Is there some conspiracy?"
There is a layer of mist in the green eyes, Miaoman's body is as weak as the wind, trembling slightly, her face is slightly pale, and her pink lips are biting tightly. Such a beautiful picture can inspire most men.
He had a strong desire to protect her, completely forgetting that she was a level five bloodline sorcerer, and wanted to hold her in his arms and take pity on her.
Judging from the time, we can probably rule out the possibility of you doing anything, Lucien replied coldly in his heart, because Sophia was by his side at the time, and it was impossible for him to use special items, magic or rituals to affect the operation of the underground palace without telling him. However, many
The magic circle can be activated with a delay, so Sophia's suspicion cannot be completely ruled out.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will protect you with my life." Lucien pretended to be fascinated, "uncontrollably" stretched out his left hand, and patted Sophia's slender shoulder with some hesitation.
Sophia gave a gentle greeting, showing her charm and weakness. Following Lucien's comfort, she hugged his left hand and leaned against him. The faint fragrance was intoxicating: "I am a warlock and I need a steadfast knight.
Only by standing in front of me can you unleash your full strength. By supporting each other, we will be able to crush all conspiracies and make you the Earl of Golden Eyes. When the time comes..."
"I will crush all conspiracies under my feet!" Like all men who are overwhelmed by tenderness and passion, Lucien said with unusual "bold and confident", as if he felt that no difficulty in the world could stop him.
, even the right hand holding the "Frost" sword dropped down and rested on his waist.
More than ten seconds passed. Sophia stood up straight as if she suddenly woke up. Her face turned red and she took a few steps back shyly. Lucien's right hand also quietly left his waist, revealing the storage bag underneath and the Holm Crown Ring.
The "electron" slides in.
"There are only two people who can do this kind of thing, my brother or Alten! One is the future emperor, and the other is the person most likely to become the Duke of Plantagenet. Only they can let the crown of glory guard the underground palace
'Cooperation, after all, Lord Midalon is approaching the end of his life and needs to provide care for his direct descendants for a long time to come."
Sophia restrained her shyness and analyzed solemnly, "And their targets are undoubtedly you and me. My father loves me very much. It's not like there has never been a queen in the empire, and the first heir to the Plantagenet family is ascending the throne.
There have been several 'accidental' deaths in front of the Duke's throne. Unless we die, they can't feel at ease! I asked why my brother suddenly came to participate in the Plantagenet Trial!"
"His Excellency 'Crown of Glory' is also cooperating with them? What should we do? Are they not afraid of being investigated by the furious Emperor afterward?" Lucien said "panicked" and "unbelievable".
"Since they have done this, they must have thought about how to deal with the aftermath. Maybe Uncle Ulrich is also their ally! This way, the blame can be placed on us who died, saying that we were the ones who plotted evil first and then fought to their death.
He was defeated and died during the counterattack." Sophia said with a gloomy face, "As for Lord Midalon, although he is a golden knight, his body has begun to fail. As long as we reach the secret room first, there is still hope."
"Hope?" Lucien asked "very confused".
Sophia's voice was low: "There is a secret passage in the secret room that can lead to the inner layers of the palace. High-level scrolls can be found inside and powerful magic circles can be controlled. This is our only hope to save our lives. This secret, Plantagenet
No one in the family knows, but my father accidentally discovered it when he was participating in a trial when he was young, and he only told me."
After saying that, she raised her head and said solemnly and tenderly: "Borac, will you fight to the end with me to pursue that glimmer of hope?"
"I will always be Her Royal Highness the Princess's knight. I will never retreat or give up." Lucien replied "affectionately".
Sophia's eyes were filled with mist again, and she waved her fist and said, "Then we rush to the secret room immediately! We can't wait for Uncle Ulrich outside. After Uncle Nurembeck discovered the abnormality, he forcibly broke the magic circle and came in to rescue us."
"The only things we can rely on are ourselves and each other!"
After the inflammatory words, Sophia saw with satisfaction that Lucien's expression became extremely excited, and then turned around and told Duda to let him, who did not have the strength of a knight, find an uninhabited corner to hide and wait for the end of the matter.
The moment she turned her head, Lucien's excited and distorted face showed an expression that was half-smile but not a smile. Sure enough, he knew the existence of the inner layers of the palace! What exactly do you want to do? What do you get? And, little girl, from "Lin Daiyu"
The transition to "Wu Zetian" is too sudden and requires more practice. Now you can only deceive those passionate young people who are confused by you.
