In the Third General's Mansion, the sudden change in the birthday reception shocked everyone.
The second prince Edmund used the assassination incident to attack the eldest prince, and then pulled out the "dead" eldest prince's cronies to testify. Then, just as this cronies were about to reveal everything, the incident took a turn for the worse, and the little prince Teris suddenly shot, The sneak attack killed Egloo.
The second prince Edmund was the most surprised. Although killing Aiglu in front of Lei Chan was tantamount to self-inflicted, he was still on guard against Aleus, but he never expected that it was Terry who did it. s.
Not only Edmund, but no one would have imagined that the third general's birthday reception would turn into the scene it is today.
From the beginning to the end, Lei Chan watched all this with cold eyes, even if Teres stabbed Aiglu to death, he didn't intend to stop it, just like he always took a bystander attitude towards the battles of the princes.
However, since Tris killed Aiglu who was about to testify in front of Emperor Lei Chan, no matter what, there must be an explanation.
"The assassination was instigated by me." Terris said lightly. If the scene was still silent because of the shock just now, it was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves at this time, and there was a sudden crash.
Achilles was moved again, and looked at the younger brother with one mother in disbelief.
"Reason?" A cold voice overwhelmed all the whispers, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet again. It was Lei Chan's voice.
This is also the question in everyone's mind. The reason why the eldest prince Aleus sent someone to kill the second prince Edmund was to get rid of the biggest enemy who was fighting for the throne, so why did the little prince Teris do this
"It seems that I can only tell the truth," Terris looked at Tiffany on the side, and sighed: "Because I like Miss Tiffany very much, this is the first woman I have ever fallen in love with in my life, and I can't stand it." The second prince Edmund covets her."
Tiffany was stunned and covered her mouth subconsciously: "You..."
Terris looked deeply at the panic in Tiffany's beautiful eyes, and nodded: "I really like it very much, to the point where I can't extricate myself."
Tiffany backed away while shaking her head, turned around suddenly, ran away, and disappeared at the gate in an instant.
Chen Rui frowned slightly. Both the second prince Edmund and this Terris are interested in Tiffany
The surrounding nobles and ministers have different expressions, just for this ridiculous reason? For a lady
Not to mention these people, even Edmund himself didn't believe it. This youngest brother is not some hot-headed and reckless character, but an astonishingly talented wise man and genius!
Many people immediately turned their attention to the eldest prince Aleus, could it be...
"Hmph!" Lei Chan snorted coldly, showing a bit of murderous intent, "I'm very disappointed in you."
"Anyway, my unfulfilling son has always disappointed my father." Seeing the direction in which Tiffany disappeared, Terris let out a sad smile, and didn't say much. But this meaning is understood by everyone present. Emperor Lei Chan advocates force the most. Although Teris is an unparalleled genius in other aspects, he is mediocre in cultivation. Otherwise, even if Aleus and Edmund combined Can't compete with it.
Seeing Terris' bleak smile, many people couldn't help showing sympathy for the little prince. Let alone other things, this assassination incident alone is very strange. No matter what the inside story is, Terris obviously Already took everything down by himself.
"I am willing to accept the punishment I deserve. I will go to the Dark Furnace to contemplate behind closed doors for half a year, and ask my father to fulfill me."
Edmund, Aleus and other princes were shocked at the same time. The Dark Furnace is an extremely dangerous secret land of the royal family, which contains extremely manic dark power. The power of the system speeds up the practice, but it is also extremely dangerous, and many Mammon royal families have died in it. Even when Aleus broke through the Devil Emperor, he only retreated for a month. Now Tetris is just a newcomer to the Demon Emperor, and this mention is half a year, and his life is absolutely in danger. This is really not a practice, but a very severe and real punishment.
Lei Chan narrowed his eyes, and took a deep look at Terris: "Okay, this is the path you chose."
"Father!" Achilles finally spoke. In the eyes of all the officials, it was a bit late to speak. My brother took the blame for you. You are only speaking now
Lei Chan didn't give him a chance to continue. He glanced at Aleus, and Aleus felt a terrible breath enveloping him. He opened his mouth, and he was so oppressed that he couldn't make half a note.
"Whoever dares to spread the news about what happened today will die." Lei Chan said indifferently, then got up abruptly: "Go back to the palace!"
Most of the people present were noble people, including those princes, no one dared to doubt Lei Chan's words.
When Edmund passed by Achilles, who hadn't escaped from the terrifying power, he snorted coldly and lowered his voice: "You are lucky to have such a younger brother, unfortunately there will be no next time!"
As soon as Lei Chan and the princes left, the rest of the ministers and nobles also left one after another, and a birthday reception broke up like this.
The third general, Adelaide, saw off the last guest with a smile on his face, and returned to the spacious yard. He looked at the purple double moons above his head, rubbed his face that was about to freeze from laughing, and felt extremely depressed. Unexpectedly, this supposedly complete and lively birthday reception turned into such a palace farce.
(Didn’t brother just want to start a PARTY? Did you provoke someone?)
What happened today is thought-provoking. It may involve the balance of power among the several princes, and it may even become a turning point for the establishment of the heir to the throne in the future. His current team should be the second prince Edmund's side, but …
While Adelaide was meditating, a confidant came forward and handed over a letter. Adelaide took the letter, screened it back and forth, opened it, frowned, and exerted a little force on the letterhead. Instantly reduced to ashes.
At this moment, Adelaide suddenly had a warning sign in his heart, and saw a person suddenly appearing in the yard, a person wearing a cloak, whose true face could not be seen clearly under the bright moonlight, seemed to be wearing some kind of mask .
"Who are you?" Adelaide's heart was shocked. The defense in the inner city was extremely strict, and his third general's mansion was full of organs and protective magic circles. Even the devil emperor couldn't easily break in. , and this person can appear in front of his eyes without disturbing any mechanism or magic circle. Apart from his unfathomable strength, he may have some special ability.
This point is really guessed right. The reason why the cloaked man appeared in front of Adelaide silently is because of a special ability, the gate of the starry sky.
Chen Rui had long wanted to "discuss" some issues with the third general alone, and he happened to accompany the "teacher" Master Nate to Adelaide's birthday reception. A star point, and then "wear" it easily.
The water magic "Gate of Time and Space" also has a similar effect, and it can only be limited by the time limit, not the number of people who use it. That is to say, as long as time permits, you can take other people across the "Gate of Time and Space" together. However, this water system The limits of magic are actually quite a lot.
First of all, the distance is strictly limited, which is directly proportional to the magic power of the person who casts the magic. Then there must be enough water around the destination, and this kind of magic is easily disturbed. Places with a large number of magic circles such as the General’s Mansion cannot be used. If it comes out, it will cause space disorder instead, and it is likely to be sent to inexplicable places or even unknown spaces. The Star Gate does not have this restriction at all, except that it cannot be used occasionally in special environments such as the demigod domain, and generally there is no taboo, especially now that it has two star points, it becomes more flexible and convenient to use.
"Your Excellency, it doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I came to ask you about something."
If it was normal, Adelaide would have punched him away, but now it happened to be after the unexpected incident at the birthday party, thinking of the usual methods of a certain department of the Blood Fiend Empire, Adelaide couldn't help but feel suspicious Come, and asked tentatively: "Yinbu?"
Chen Rui originally wanted to use force, but he didn't expect to cause the "beautiful" Adelaide to misunderstand, so he nodded along the way, imitating the tone of Mentila at that time and said: "I'm sorry, General, due to limited duties, I can't answer any more questions from you...and, I hope our conversation will be between the two of us, and not disturbed by anyone."
Adelaide knew that this kind of "conversation" could not be attended by outsiders, so he made a gesture, and some of the people he had summoned with some kind of secret signal retreated far away, appearing to be well-trained.
For these sudden appearance of manpower, Chen Rui also felt secretly vigilant. As expected of the Third General's Mansion, there are still many secret protection forces.
"Okay, even if you want to kill me now, those hidden guards won't come near here again." Adelaide said with a bit of sarcasm, "If you have any questions, you can talk about them, but I would like to remind you in advance , my time and patience are limited."
Judging from this person's strength, he should be some kind of high-ranking member of the Yinbu. Although the real power of the Yinbu is great, Adelaide is not only the royal family, but also the third person in the imperial military, so his words are still not polite. .
Chen Rui, a member of the hidden department, is a counterfeit at all. Of course, he doesn't care about these details, and said: "The general is joking. The first question is, where was the general on the day His Royal Highness the Second Prince was assassinated?"
This is obviously a misleading way of raising doubts. Adelaide snorted coldly: "You should ask those secret agents in your secret department! Not me!"
"So... let's get straight to the point, why kill people who are close to Miss Tiffany?"
This question surprised Adelaide, and his eyes flashed suspiciously: "Isn't this...cooperating with your hidden department's actions?"
The mastermind is Yinbu
Chen Rui recalled that it was Meng Tila, the leader of the hidden department who attacked him at the beginning, and was slightly startled. Adelaide asked back: "What level of hidden demon are you?"
"It seems... Your Excellency the General has already suspected me," Chen Rui didn't think about good things when he came tonight, and the star power in his body began to run at high speed, "I'm thinking about another thing now."
Adelaide's body also began to exude a strong dark breath, and his expression became more and more cold: "Oh?"
"That is... If the general really died in my hands, those people outside would not come near here?" Just as the words fell, a figure appeared in front of Adelaide in an instant, and he slashed down like a knife.
"Looking for death!" Adelaide has already felt that the power of this mysterious enemy is only the first stage of the Demon Emperor, and there is a considerable gap from the peak of the Demon Emperor himself. Burning with anger.
Today, I must take down this daring guy with my own hands, without peeling the skin and tearing the bones, the hatred in my heart will be hard to resolve!
Adelaide stretched out his hand and grabbed Chen Rui's palm knife, intending to destroy the opponent's palm, a sense of danger suddenly surged in his heart. Years of combat experience made him immediately make the most correct judgment, and changed the grasping Fist, hitting the back of Poyuan Dao. Although the "blade" of Poyuan Knife is extremely sharp, the "back" of the knife cannot hurt people. This blow just happened to shake off the invisible knife energy, and a thin streak appeared on the ground beside Adelaide. The traces are extremely deep, which shows the sharpness of this "knife".
Adelaide was slightly taken aback. If it hadn't been for the sudden change of moves just now, the entire palm would have been in danger of breaking. It seems that the talent of this opponent is quite terrifying—but it is just talent. The huge gap in strength level is not Talent can be fully compensated.
However, after only a few rounds of fighting, Adelaide has already felt the strangeness of the opponent's strength. This guy whose power level is only at the beginning of the Demon Emperor seems to be more difficult to deal with than the opponent Bouwa in the martial arts field last time. The heart was closed immediately.
Adelaide's thoughts moved, and the power of the domain was displayed. For a while, the black sky spread.
Although in Adelaide's consciousness, this opponent can still be dealt with without using the power of the domain, he does not want to entangle him any longer. Unexpected events!
Adelaide's strength is stronger than that of Heimos, who was killed by Chen Rui in the middle of the Demon King in Luping Town, and slightly inferior to Hei Luo, who was in the middle of the Demon King, but Chen Rui is currently in an ordinary state, relying only on the early stage Its power is undeniable.
Now as soon as the opponent's domain came out, Chen Rui immediately felt that the power in his body showed a large amount of irregular disorder. Sometimes he would get out of his body, and sometimes he would flow backwards uncontrollably. "Black line" effect.
It was only then that Chen Rui realized that the "black silk" field that he saw in the Martial Arts Field last time, what looked like a trace of something, was actually the fusion and interweaving of countless high-speed tiny forces, just like water droplets converging into a Like rivers and rivers, it has become an extremely terrifying domain force. Just cutting off one, or a few, cannot affect the entire field.
This kind of domain combines the most strange blood talent of the mammon royal family, the evil light, which can continuously weaken and reduce the strength of the opponent. It seems that Adelaide is planning to make a quick decision.
Coincidentally, Chen Rui also had the same thought. This is the territory of Adelaide. Although those who are ordered to retreat may not come immediately, but in case of delay, things will change, and it is better to resolve the battle quickly.
