It was almost late at night, and the carriage was driving slowly on the streets of the royal capital.
"You stole the show tonight." Seth, who had been leaning against the window to look at the scenery, suddenly said.
Rody sighed: "So what? It's not for the old fox King to take advantage of." He seemed to be smiling bitterly: "I have no choice. After all, my mission in Roland Continent is to hope that the two sides can fight. The better they fight. The more lively the better. The king obviously knows our intentions, but everyone is just using each other now."
Rody seemed a little helpless. In a duel at the dinner party, he easily defeated the Paladin, who was famous throughout the Roland continent. Although Rody had killed Paladins before, this was the first time in such a public occasion. This duel was of great significance. It not only forced those Roland Kingdoms to draw a clear line between the temple and the temple, but also demonstrated their own strength.
After all, now that the empire and Roland are negotiating peace, everyone will be allies from now on. Rody is the special envoy of the empire. To actually have such a strong strength can make those Roland people firm up their determination. And these were probably the thoughts in the king's mind.
After the duel just now, the Paladin and Elder Gu Ming left one after another, but the banquet continued. The special envoys from Roland's various kingdoms were obviously much more enthusiastic about Rody, and they all came up to show their goodwill and win over him. Once a war begins, if we can get such strong foreign aid support from the Bright Empire, That has great advantages - even across the Thunder Strait, the Empire of Light cannot directly send troops to join the battle to help. As long as it sends high-level warriors like Rody, it can be of great use on the battlefield! At least among the many Roland kingdoms, there is no master who can compete with the Paladin!
Seth was silent for a while and suddenly smiled: "You are really not suitable for this kind of thing. I always feel that you seem a bit clumsy when facing these conspiracy scenes."
Rody rolled his eyes, but nodded: "That's right! I'm afraid you are more suitable than me."
Seth suddenly asked: "Have you ever thought about what you plan to do with me after the incident in Roland Continent is over?"
Roddy smiled. Leaning lazily on the back of the chair: "Take you back, and then Nicole will decide what to do with you."
Seth curled his lips: "Is there any discussion?"
"No!" Roddy answered simply.
Seth seemed very disdainful: "You asked me to go back, probably for your own sake. In order to be with my sister, you can't continue to be the Tulip Duke, right?"
Rody said solemnly: "The other thing is that you should bear the responsibilities you should bear! The child in the queen's belly! And the important responsibilities of the family..."
"And Miao Ge?!" Seth actually stabbed Rody.
Rody seemed silent for a while. Then he raised his head, stared at Seth, and said coldly: "About Miu Ge, you'd better never mention it in front of me! You hurt her once, and I will never allow it a second time! She is now It's my woman."
Seth seemed to want to laugh. But Rody said coldly: "In this world, there are some words that cannot be said carelessly! And there are some things that cannot be done carelessly! If you do it, then you must bear the responsibility! Don't think that you You can challenge the rules of this world!”
Seth seemed indifferent: "Don't worry, I don't have any thoughts about Miao Ge..."
Roddy actually smiled, but his smile was very cold: "You'd better not have it. If you have it..." He stared at Seth's face and said lightly in an extremely cold tone: "I will." I will kill you without hesitation."
Even Seth, who had no emotion at all, felt a chill on his back after hearing Rody's words.
Seth laughed, as if to hide his true thoughts. He pointed at Roddy's nose and laughed: "I can't believe it. I can't believe it. A stupid boy like you actually learned to steal women from others, hahahaha..."
Roddy didn't get angry, he just said lightly: "You don't believe it?"
Seth stopped laughing, took a deep breath, and said with a wry smile: "I believe it. You are no longer the stupid boy I picked."
The two were silent for a while, and Seth suddenly asked another question: "That Paladin Fielding, do you think he has recognized you?"
Rody nodded: "It should be. I just don't know if he will tell the temple, I guess..."
At this point, Rody suddenly stopped talking. The expression on his face changed, and he actually squeezed towards Seth, pushed open the window of the carriage, and said in a deep voice: "There is movement!"
"What?" Seth asked curiously.
Rody looked out the window intently, then closed his eyes, as if listening to something, but there was silence all around, except for the sound of horse hooves and the rolling wheels.
"What are you looking at?"
"There!" Rody pointed in a direction outside the window, his tone serious: "Someone is doing something there! And they are two masters! I can feel the energy fluctuations!"
"Oh?" Seth was also interested.
Roddy seemed to close his eyes to sense something, and then he frowned: "Huh? Why does it seem like... one of them is Fielding! The other one... is a little strange..."
Seth's eyes lit up: "Fielding? Anyone who can fight against the Paladin must be quite strong!"
Roddy suddenly yelled: "Stop!!"
The carriage suddenly stopped. The two escorting royal knights rode up to the car window.
"My lord, what are your orders?"
Without saying a word, Rody opened the door and got out of the carriage. He seemed to be looking into the distance with a surprised look on his face.
Seth jumped out of the carriage immediately after Rody and said with a smile: "Since you feel strange, why not go take a look?"
"Okay!" Roddy seemed to be leaving. Seth said hurriedly: "I'll go with you!"
Rody glanced at Seth. Seth was smiling: "If someone comes to harm me, do you think a weak woman like me can resist it? It's still a long way from the palace!"
Rody thought for a moment, and now Seth's identity is Miss Nicole. If the temple really wants to deal with him, these royal knights do not have the strength to protect him.
After nodding his head, Seth actually reached out and picked it up in the surprised eyes of these royal knights. He picked up Seth's collar and lifted him up, and then he jumped out with big strides. In an instant, he was already more than ten meters away!
Ignoring Seth's exclamation, Rody had already crossed a long street in a moment. Seth cursed incessantly, he could only hear the whistling of the wind in his ears, and the houses on both sides kept retreating.
Rody ran for a while, then gradually looked in the direction of the city gate, and was on his way in a hurry. But suddenly he heard several shouts coming from the side.
Rody suddenly stopped and heard a short voice coming from the path behind a square on the left. Based on Roddy's experience, that is the scream after a person is seriously injured!
"Someone..." Before Seth could say anything. Rody put down Seth and shouted: "Don't get close here!" He had already run towards the place where he was exclaimed.
The location here seemed a bit remote, and Roddy had just taken two steps. I saw several patrolling soldiers in the royal capital lying on the ground, apparently beaten unconscious. Rody frowned and took a few steps faster.
I seemed to hear someone approaching on the path. Someone seemed to shout, and Rody saw a white light flashing in the originally dark path. When Roddy got closer, he saw a person lying on the ground!
To be precise, it was a corpse!
The corpse lying on the ground, wearing a white robe of a temple priest, fell sideways to the ground, half of his body was stained red with blood, and a standard cross sword used by knights was inserted in his chest. When Roddy got closer, he found that he actually knew this person! It is the elder Gu Ming of the temple whom I saw in the palace tonight!
Rody's expression changed instantly.
The elder of the temple. He actually died here!
There is no one around anymore. The scream just now must have come from Gu Ming, and the murderer must be nearby! Rody's heart moved, and he jumped up to the roof and looked into the distance. Under the night, there were several figures fleeing in the distance. Rody frowned and was about to chase after him when he heard the corpse at his feet make another low sound.
Rody jumped down immediately, but saw Gu Ming, who was already dead, suddenly opening his eyes.
Rody leaned down and frowned: "Elder Gu Ming?"
Gu Ming seemed to be a little confused. He seemed to feel that there was someone in front of him, but in a hurry, he seemed to think that it was an enemy plotting against him. He suddenly roared, raised his hands, and suddenly a ball of light hit Rody. past. The distance between the two was too close, and Rody was not prepared for Gu Ming to suddenly attack him.
The strength of the elders of the temple was really outmatched. This ball of light seemed to be fire magic, and it hit Rody's chest. Rody's body was shaken, and there was a huge shock. When he took a few steps back, Although he was not injured, the clothes on his chest were burned.
Rody shouted in a low voice: "Elder Gu Ming, it's me..."
But Gu Ming stared at him, straightened his body suddenly, dropped his hands, and died just like that.
Rody was shocked. He lifted up Gu Ming's body and examined it carefully. He found that he was really dead. Looking around, there are indeed signs of a fight. It just didn't seem like too much, and obviously the battle wasn't very long. The strength of the elders of the temple is naturally extraordinary. The person who could kill him like this was probably not alone, and it was probably a secret attack.
"How is it?" Seth's voice came from behind.
Rody put down Gu Ming. Sighed: "Look!"
Seth looked at Gu Ming on the ground with a slightly strange expression on his face: "Well, is it him?"
Rody smiled bitterly and said: "It seems to be another conspiracy. The elders of the temple died here..."
Seth's eyes flickered, and he was obviously thinking quickly: "Yes! He just showed up in the palace, and he had already publicly fallen out with many palaces in Roland, and then he died here! There is a big problem here!"
Rody said solemnly: "It shouldn't be the king who did it! He doesn't have to do this!"
Seth seemed to be deep in thought: "Well. You said you felt Fielding was fighting someone outside the city... Gu Ming died here... not good!"
He suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Let's get out of here quickly!!"
"What?"
Seth seemed anxious: "Idiot! Get out of here quickly!!!"
He ran over and seemed to be holding Roddy's hand and about to leave. Sure enough, I heard a loud roar coming from the intersection: "What have you done!!!"
Fielding appeared at the intersection at some unknown time. He was covered in blood, his upper body was naked, and there were several wounds on his chest, shoulders and arms, especially two bloody wounds on his chest and one shoulder. Gurgling out.
At a glance, he saw Gu Ming on the ground with the long sword stuck in his body. He also saw Rody standing next to him who seemed to have some blood stains on his body. He suddenly roared, rushed over and punched Rody. . Rody frowned and pulled Seth aside. Fielding did not pursue him, but knelt on the ground, picked up Gu Ming, and roared: "Did you kill him?!"
He put down Gu Ming. He stood up and glared at Rody: "Tulip! Why did you do this!"
Rody sighed: "I didn't do it, I was just passing by here."
"Do you think I'm blind?!" Fielding was in confusion at the moment. He had just been plotted by Arslan and was poisoned by the dragon's poison, and he was bleeding. However, even though he is very powerful. But after all, as a knight, he is not very knowledgeable about magic. He could only look back to find Gu Ming, a man with advanced magic, to save him, but he saw this scene in front of him.
"There is blood on you! And the clothes on your chest are burned! Wasn't it caused by Gu Ming's magic attack?!" Fielding seemed to be unable to stand still. After a fierce fight, he was covered in injuries, lost too much blood, and seemed a little weak. But he still clenched his fists and stared at Roddy fiercely: "Why are you doing this! Is it King Sauron's order? You killed Gu Ming in order to fight against the temple! Is that right!!"
After all, Roddy is not good at this kind of scene. There is indeed blood stains on his body, which is easy to explain. It's just that before Gu Ming died, he regarded himself as an enemy and inexplicably attacked him. This is a bit subtle.
Seeing that Rody didn't speak immediately, Fielding had already roared, and a golden fighting spirit suddenly emerged from his body, and he rushed towards Rody.
Fielding, who was agitated at this moment, was controlled by anger. Although the blow was violent, it could not hit Roddy. Roddy dodged and only heard a bang, and a house behind where he was standing crashed. A big hole had been blasted out of the wall by Fielding.
"Fielding, listen to me!" Rody sighed, and just as he was about to speak, Fielding climbed up from the ruins, roared, and rushed towards Rody again. Rody could only dodge again. . With a loud bang, Fielding punched the ground where Roddy was standing, and a deep hole was made in the stone pavement.
"Kill you!" Fielding's eyes turned red, his hands suddenly clasped together, and his aura suddenly became several times stronger. A huge ball of light quickly condensed between his hands.
Roddy's expression changed slightly: "Are you going to destroy this place?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge ball of light suddenly shot out from Fielding's hands. That energy wave condensed Fielding's full strength. Roddy knew that he could never dodge again this time. If he dodge, However, the entire street behind him may have been destroyed by Fielding.
A sharp look flashed in his eyes, and he felt a little angry in his heart when he faced Fielding's indiscriminate beating. I saw that wave of energy reaching in front of Rody. A glimmer of light seemed to flash in Rody's eyes for an instant, and he suddenly waved with one hand!
After a muffled sound, Fielding gathered all his strength and sent out this blow, which was easily deflected by him. The energy ball shot into the sky. It quickly disappeared into the night sky like a shooting star.
Fielding still refused to give up and rushed towards Rody again. Rody pinched Fielding's fist and twisted it hard. Fielding screamed and fell to the ground.
He seemed to struggle a few times, but was finally unable to move. Rody said coldly: "Fielding. I didn't kill Gu Ming!"
Seeing that Fielding didn't seem to believe it, Seth suddenly said coldly: "Idiot, with his strength, if he were the murderer, it wouldn't be difficult for him to kill you too. It's necessary to talk nonsense with you so much. ?”
This sentence was more effective than anything else. After Fielding heard it, he seemed to be stunned for a moment and really stopped struggling.
Rody glanced at Seth gratefully and sighed: "I just passed by here. I saw Gu Ming being plotted, but I was about to chase the murderer. I found that Gu Ming was not dead yet. So I was delayed, but... He pointed at the marks on his chest caused by the fireball technique, and said with a wry smile: "Gu Ming seemed to be in a state of confusion before he died, so give it to me."
Then he sensed on the road just now that someone seemed to be doing something outside the city, and it seemed to be Fielding's energy fluctuations. Then I felt strange and wanted to run over to have a look. I told her the story of passing by here in detail.
Rody stretched out his hand, pulled Fielding up, and said sternly: "This is what happened. If you don't believe it, you might as well think about it. I am a member of the Bright Empire. Killing Gu Ming will do nothing to me. What's the benefit? Today in the palace, the king's side and the temple's side have turned against each other. It makes no sense for me to kill Gu Ming at this time! Besides, I know that Gu Ming is Miao Si's teacher. How could I do it? Such a thing?"
Fielding was silent for a while, and finally showed a somewhat believing expression: "I know."
His body was still trembling faintly, and he walked up to Gu Ming again. He knelt on the ground with a sad expression on his face: "Lord Gu Ming... Lord Gu Ming..." A trace of murderous intent suddenly flashed in his eyes: "It must be her. ! It's that bastard! It must be them! She sent someone to plot against Gu Ming!"
At this point, Fielding looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Prometheus! Are you going crazy just to be the pope?! Even Lord Gu Ming is ruthless enough to kill you!!"
At this point, he seemed unable to lift it up in one breath and his body was shaky. Roddy saw this, supported Fielding, and frowned: "How did you get so many injuries on your body?"
Fielding gasped for a while, his voice a little weak: "I was plotted by another dragon paladin in the temple! Prometheus wants to kill me! Because not everyone in the temple supports war with the various kingdoms of Roland! What if? If we die here, we can stir up the hatred of the temple against the Kingdom of Roland! With the same hatred, he can... can..." At this point, Fielding finally couldn't hold on any longer and swayed a few times. , passed out.
He has lost so much strength tonight and suffered so many injuries. The most important thing is that after being plotted by Arslan with the dragon's bell, the wound could not heal and he bled too much. No matter how powerful the Paladin is, he is still the bastard of human beings. After losing so much blood, he finally couldn't hold on and passed out.
Roddy sighed and tried to shake Fielding, but found that his eyes were closed tightly and frowned: "He seems to be seriously injured."
Seth smiled and showed a somewhat cunning expression: "Why don't you kill him? Isn't he your love rival? Do you want to take him back and let Miaosi see it? I know that women's sympathy is very important... "
Seeing Rody's angry gaze, Seth immediately said: "I was just joking."
He finally put away his smile and said seriously: "Fielding, you can take it back, but what about this guy?" He pointed to Gu Ming on the ground: "Should we carry the body back?"
Rody knelt down, looked at Gu Ming's wounds carefully, and frowned: "The person who plotted against him must be a magician! Because when I came in just now, I saw a magical light flashing, but they deliberately attacked Gu Ming. There is a knight's sword stuck in Ming's chest... It is obvious that the blame is placed on the Kingdom of Sauron... "
Seth smiled bitterly: "You don't want to take the body back, do you?"
Rody frowned: "What else should I do?"
Seth sighed. Looking at Rody, his eyes seemed to have some pity: "You are really not suitable for dealing with these political things! Didn't you hear what Fielding said just now? Not everyone in the temple supports going to war with Roland's many kingdoms! And now the ancient Ming's death will arouse the hatred between the temple and the Roland Kingdom! That Prometheus can eliminate the internal opposition, so that the two sides can fight!" He suddenly looked at Rody with a sneer: "Here you go! Isn’t the purpose of Roland Continent just to get the two sides to fight?”
Rody looked unkind: "You mean to just dump the body here?"
Seth said calmly: "Do you have any better ideas?"
Roddy sighed: "I can't do this!" He stared at Seth: "No matter what, he is Miaosi's teacher, I can't let his body be exposed here! And..." He suddenly smiled: "I I heard a saying: Whatever the enemy opposes, we will support it! So I can let Gu Ming's body stay here! My intuition tells me that this must be useful!”
Ignoring Seth's expression, Rody supported Fielding and stretched out a palm...
A trace of completely black flame emerged from his palm, and the trace of flame fell on Gu Ming's body, quickly burning and melting his body. Not only Gu Ming's body, but also the cross sword inserted into his body gradually disappeared in the flames. In the end, not even a bit of ashes was left! !
Seth looked at Roddy's movements in surprise, and suddenly exclaimed in a low voice: "You... are you using 'Hell Fire'?!"
He looked at Roddy seriously: "Why do you use such a thing?" His expression became rare and solemn: "I have read some legends, this kind of 'hell fire' is not a simple thing! Even if you are A person who is strong in the realm, but the legend says that it can only be used by gods! As a human, it is impossible to use it even if you reach the realm!"
Looking into Rody's eyes, Seth suddenly said something in a strange tone: "Are you not a human being?"
His tone was weird, but it definitely didn't sound like he was joking.
****
On the ethereal mountain peak, there is a temple.
Located on the slightly shorter peak next to the main peak, inside the black building. A huge six-pointed star magic circle suddenly flashed a few times, and then a person walked out of the magic circle.
It was Arslan.
Arslan's armor was broken in several places, and there were a few more Gorons on his cloak. His face was a little pale.
"Are you injured?" A cold voice sounded from the side. A figure covered in black robes slowly walked out of the corner. The black robe cleverly hid him in the darkness of the corner.
Although he said "Are you injured?", there was absolutely no hint of concern in his tone.
Arslan's face was equally cold: "Are you just hoping that I will die?"
The man actually didn't refute, and said calmly: "After you left, I kept looking at the life clock on the wall. Their fire was extinguished, and now you are the only light. I'm waiting to see what happens next. When will the light go out?"
Arslan smiled softly, with a hint of anger in his laughter.
The man said dryly: "Are you angry? There is no need at all. Although we are also dragons, I abide by the contract. I just want to advise you, don't think that your little tricks can fool Prometheus. He is not an easy guy to deal with! Although you have good intentions for the Dragon Clan... but in my opinion, you are playing with fire!"
Arslan's tone was a bit mocking: "So you are willing to abide by that contract and work for Prometheus? Even if you watch Ni Lin and the others die, you are still willing to continue to work for Prometheus. ?”
"Yes." The man said calmly: "At least I know that doing this will not bring disaster to the dragon clan! It is better to die a few people than to die a lot! But I must correct you... I am not 'willingly' to sacrifice my life for him ”
Arslan sneered and said: "Whatever you think! But let me tell you, this time we went to Sauron King's Capital, things were very successful!"
The man seemed to sigh, shook his head, and did not continue to refute, but simply said: "Then are you going to see Prometheus right away?"
"Yes!" Arslan walked to the side of the room and started to take off his armor. Although there was another person in front of her, she never stopped moving.
She first took off her armor, then her close-fitting clothes. In a moment, she was completely naked!
This female paladin of the Dragon Clan not only has a gorgeous face, but after taking off her armor, she also has a perfect body that would impress even the Creator.
She has a slender figure, with sharp shoulders, a straight torso, and a well-proportioned frame. His chest was proudly erect, as if he did not avoid the mocking gaze from the side. Her legs were straight and slender, round and firm, and the skin all over her body was perfect and delicate, without a single flaw.
Arslan looked at the man next to him coldly: "Have you seen enough? Bring me the armor quickly!"
The man's eyes gradually changed from cold to fanatical, and a look of fascination gradually appeared in his eyes. Hearing Arslan's cold voice, he seemed to smile softly, and walked over as if he wanted to reach out and hold Arslan. Lan's shoulders. Arslan frowned, stepped away, and said coldly: "If you touch me again, I will kill you immediately!"
The man took a step back. Although his whole body and face were covered by black gauze, there was some deep hatred in his eyes. Finally, he took a long breath and slowly waved his hand. , after a dazzling brilliance, a set of clothes immediately appeared on Arslan's body, and then golden armor...
After putting on his clothes, Arslan's expression did not change much. The man's eyes seemed to be relieved.
Arslan seemed to frown at him and said coldly: "I'm going to see Prometheus!" She turned around to leave, and suddenly said coldly: "Next time you'd better not use that Look at me like this! I feel disgusted! If you like it so much, you might as well take off your clothes and look at yourself!”
The man seemed to smile softly and suddenly said: "You'd better be careful when you go to see Prometheus! Something happened in the two days you were away."
"Oh?" Arslan stopped.
The man said calmly: "It's Augustine! Prometheus seems to want to release him! Although the Presbyterian Council has not passed this resolution yet, I think it is only a matter of time."
Arslan frowned and said, "Augustine committed such a serious crime, and they are willing to forgive him?"
The man seemed to laugh disdainfully and said lightly: "After all, Augustine is a Paladin! Now is the time to employ people! Although your strength is very good, although Prometheus also needs the help of our dragon family. But after all, they humans cannot Maybe I completely believe in the Dragon Clan! I heard that they humans have a saying: Those who are not of my race must have different minds!”
There seemed to be a pause, and he looked at Arslan with a smile: "Although this sentence is not pleasant, I think it is very appropriate to use it on you. You do have dissatisfaction with Prometheus... "
