Chi!
A blood-red light shot up into the sky, and exploded in the sky over Bailu City in a blink of an eye.
The bloody smoke spread out like rippling water waves, causing everyone in the city to raise their heads, shocked by this wonderful sight.
…
In Bailu Castle.
Prince Harrison was awakened by the vision in the sky, and finally broke free from hesitation. The originally pure and flawless pupils seemed to be covered with a layer of blood.
"Knight Valen, are you still unwilling to obey Knight Ivan's order?"
"His Majesty Harrison, I always have the most sincere respect for you, but please forgive me for my stubbornness." Knight Warren clasped his chest with one hand and leaned slightly, but his tone was as firm as a stone, " In my opinion, Knight Ivan is not qualified to be the master of Bailu Castle, even if it is only temporarily!"
"In that case..." Prince Harrison turned his head to look at Knight Ivan, nodded, and gave him a cold look.
Knight Ivan grinned ferociously, and waved his right hand downward.
In an instant, more than a dozen vigorous figures rushed towards the surrounded Knights of Warren!
"kill!"
…
In Bailu City.
Viscount Bushus stopped in his tracks, looked up at the bloody smoke in the sky, and gradually frowned.
"My lord, this is the envoy sent by the Pegasus Legion ahead." The adjutant led the envoy to Viscount Busius.
The messenger didn't care about Viscount Busius' absent-mindedness, but asked in a deep voice:
"Master Viscount, Commander Muffat sent me to know why you mobilized the army in the middle of the night?"
Viscount Bushus withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "Tell Muffat that I am going to lead the army to leave Bailu City and return to the family territory, and ask him to let us pass."
Soon, the messenger brought back news:
"My lord, Commander Muffat said that entering and exiting Bailu City is strictly prohibited tonight, and I request you to lead your army back to the city station immediately, and do not move at will."
Viscount Bushus looked at the messenger quietly without saying a word.
The messenger was wondering, when he saw a silver light flashing, a sharp pain in his chest, and then boundless darkness swept over.
Viscount Busius drew back his saber from the messenger's body, and then held it up high, with sticky blood dripping continuously along the sharp blade.
"My loyal soldiers, the Pegasus Legion has betrayed the Eastern Territory and is going to drive us all to extinction! If you don't want to die, follow me out of the city!"
"kill!"
…
The north gate of Bailu City.
Earl Nicole looked at the blood mist appearing in the sky, as well as the gradually rising smoke and flames in the city, his frowning brows finally relaxed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again.
"Earl Evan, have you finally succeeded!"
At this point, he no longer hesitated, walked down the tower quickly, and came to the forefront of the battle.
Smelling the smell of blood rushing towards his face, Earl Nicole seemed to have regained his youthful fighting spirit and courage. With a choking sound, he drew out his long sword, raised it obliquely, and roared:
"Brothers, go into the city and rescue Lord Evan St. Pross!"
"kill!"
…
Outside Bailu City.
The Logue knight stared at the bloody smoke above Bailu City, dazed.
The adjutant stepped forward and reported:
"My lord, the Blood Cavalry Army is ready to go, when will we enter the city?"
"No hurry." The Logue knight said without looking back.
The adjutant hesitated for a moment, but still persuaded: "However, the Earl is still in the city, don't you worry that something will happen to him?"
The Logue knight shook his head and said, "But I haven't received the order to enter the city yet."
The adjutant immediately said: "But if the Earl is in deep danger, how can he deliver the order in time?"
The Logue knight smiled mysteriously, and said, "You don't have to worry about this, the Earl must have a solution."
The adjutant pursed his lips, but remained silent. He stood quietly beside the Logue knight, looking at the bloody smoke over Bailu City, wondering what he was thinking.
The Logue knight narrowed his eyes, and suddenly whispered to himself:
"Bailu City tonight is destined to be full of blood!"
…
At this time, Bailu City was indeed covered with a layer of blood.
The eastern lords persuaded by Earl Evan suddenly launched an attack on the Pegasus Legion, immediately throwing the whole city into chaos.
And because Bailu Castle was also experiencing a fight, no one tried to stabilize the situation in the city, and could only let it continue to slide into the abyss of being out of control.
The loss of control of the army spread the flames of war to every corner of the city, and it seemed to have opened Pandora's box, releasing the dark side hidden for a long time among the civilians.
Theft, arson, killing, rape... Countless crimes are taking advantage of the chaotic situation, and they are being staged in Bailu City in turn, gradually turning this largest city in the East into a hell on earth.
However, in this sea of blood and fire, there are still some calm corners.
In an abandoned warehouse in the west of the city, a group of mage apprentices are concentrating on drawing a huge magic circle on the ground.
The turmoil and fighting outside seem to be isolated in another time and space, and they will not affect this place at all.
However, the people in the warehouse can clearly observe the situation outside.
A figure in a red mage's robe was looking at the bloody smoke that filled the sky over Bailu City.
He is much larger than ordinary people, but he has a serious hunchback, rough face, high cheekbones, crooked mouth, big and small eyes, if seen late at night, it will definitely make people cry.
It's just that such an ugly red-robed mage is standing side by side with Mr. Xi at this time, and the relationship seems to be quite close.
"Which family's martial arts secret technique is this?" the red-robed mage asked suddenly.
"I don't know." Mr. Ji shook his head solemnly.
"You don't even know?" The red-robed mage glanced at Mr. Ji in surprise, and asked again, "This kind of power should have the strength of the sanctuary, right?"
"Haven't reached the Sanctuary..." Mr. Ji said affirmatively this time, and then added, "But it's very close."
"So, it should also be a secret martial art from a paladin family?"
"It should be." Mr. Xi fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about which paladin family it was.
There are only seven paladin families in the Glorious Empire, but after thinking about it, he has never seen any family whose martial skills have such an effect.
Driven by strong curiosity, Mr. Ji explained to the red-robed mage: "You continue to arrange, and I will go to see the situation."
The red-robed sorcerer frowned, and persuaded: "Are you sure you want to go? With such a big commotion, Prince Laixi will definitely go to check it out. If you run into him..."
Mr. Ji glanced back at the red-robed mage, and said, "Don't worry, I know what to do, and I won't miss your business."
Seeing Mr. Ji's firm attitude, the red-robed sorcerer had no choice but to say:
"Okay, then be careful yourself."
