Chapter 408 The storm is surging
——The King of Blessing was assassinated?!
This news suddenly reminded me that the underground seal I had just seen was slightly loose, and the bad premonition I had at that time actually came true!
Regardless of what happened, all of us chased after the Rodel soldier and ran towards the Golden Tree Cathedral.
Many of Rodel's knights had already gathered here, as well as several noble-looking people wearing golden masks.
And there was indeed one figure missing from the cathedral—the phantom of Gefrey, now the King of Blessings, had indeed been defeated.
"What's going on?!" The knight commander who led the team to the underground sewer found a colleague to question.
"It seems that those damned faders did it. They sneaked in when no one was paying attention." The other party's golden eyes swept over us and clicked his tongue. "Anyway, the king was defeated, and the bastard had already escaped before we arrived."
"Is there any eyewitness testimony?" I couldn't help but step forward to ask.
“Who did it? Don’t you Faded Ones know what’s going on?!” The guy suddenly raised his voice. “In the borderland, you are the only ones who are not blessed. Each of you has ulterior motives and wants to seize the throne of Elden... The king shouldn’t have shown mercy and recruited you, a bunch of ambitious jackals, into Rodel!”
For a moment, the surrounding knights were all filled with righteous indignation: "Yes, it was these guys who did it. They must have used some trick to defeat the king!"
"Catch them all first, and then interrogate them about the whereabouts of their accomplices!"
"Yes! Catch him! Avenge the king!"
humming-
Suddenly, weapons were drawn one after another, pointing directly at me and everyone at the round table.
And Ishutopia and the others immediately drew their weapons and surrounded me.
The air was filled with gunpowder and the situation was tense.
The pairs of golden eyes were like arrows, piercing us into hedgehogs. I was afraid that if only one person took action first, everyone would rush forward and tear us into pieces.
But at this moment, a roar came from the front of the church: "Stop it!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw a Tree Furnace Knight walking over with the White Wolf Warrior, one of the original knights of the Round Table Hall.
The Forge of Trees said loudly, "The king is fine! We all know that the Blessed Shadow is just an illusion of the king, so there is no need to worry. Now, seal the city gates and search for a man wearing silver armor of beasts."
——Armor of Beasts? Bernal!
I couldn't help but swallow.
It is indeed necessary to be suspicious. When they were at the Huoshang Mansion, Bernard was obviously colluding with Dianhuo A Ling, but when they were in the sewer, only Dianhuo A Ling showed up... Unexpectedly, they actually acted separately. If Bernard had really succeeded, Dianhuo A Ling could have gone down directly to meet Dianhuo Three Fingers.
Coincidentally, many of Rodel's soldiers were sent to the lower city today to clean up the ruins and clear the way to the sewers, which gave Bernal a good opportunity to sneak in.
White Wolf War Ghost also confirmed my guess: "As far as I know, the man's name is Bernal. He was originally a rebel in the Volcano Mansion and hated the Golden Law. We in the Round Table Hall must do our best to arrest this man and report to the King of Blessings."
Everyone remained silent.
And the Tree Furnace suddenly asked again: "Is the Faded One named Zero here?"
"I'm here!" I responded loudly.
"The king wants to see you. Please go as soon as possible."
——I think Melina has gone to tell Teacher Monggot that we are back.
Amidst confused, puzzled, angry and alert gazes, I carried Crazy A Ling through the crowd, went up to the second floor of the cathedral, and went to the throne of King Elden.
There, Mongert was sitting under the "Little Golden Tree" that Melina had used to pray, healing his wounds: "Zero, you really brought the person back, well done."
"Teacher Mongget, are you okay?" I asked with concern.
Monggot stood up and said, "It's OK. Is that man called Bernal? Although the Shadow of Blessing was defeated by him, it is not a wise choice to continue fighting."
"However, I didn't expect them to act separately. I thought the Mad Fire followers would go to the sewer together to meet Mad Fire Three Fingers." I sighed and put Mad Fire A Ling in front of Monget. "It's this guy. He has been pretending to be me, intending to infect the Mad Fire followers."
Mongget came forward, bent down, put his big hairy hand on Dianhuo A Ling's chest, and pressed it.
Suddenly, a circle of golden ancient golden tree runes spread out from under Dianhuo A Ling's body, and then slowly shrank to his chest.
The process seemed quite painful. Mongget peeled off a large ball of golden rune from the other party, so that even though Dianhuo A Ling was still unconscious, he couldn't help but groan.
"I have sealed all his abilities temporarily, and then have him imprisoned. He will be useful to us in the Giant Fire Pot in the Snow Mountain, right?" Mongert stood up.
I also said indifferently: "The Mad Fire One should be able to see the phantom of fire and guide the giant flames to the golden tree. Even if it doesn't work, then we can let this guy receive the Mad Fire Three Fingers and use him to burn."
Monggot nodded, "By the way, Zero, this is for you."
As he spoke, he threw the ball of golden light in his hand over.
I reached out and took it.
Oh my god, 250,000 runes, a set of blood sacrifice equipment, two memory stones, a cracked pot, a ritual pot... all kinds of messy equipment and props were stuffed into my blessed backpack at once, making my brain hurt slightly when the receiving items popped up.
Rune alone is enough for me to level up three or four times. This is truly an unexpected and ultimate harvest!
——Hahaha, Lao Deng, gold coins are popping up!
Just when I was laughing so hard that my mouth was about to break to my ears, Monggot suddenly said, "Zero, you should leave the Royal City of Rodel for a while."
"Huh? Why?" I was quite surprised.
——Why are you suddenly sending me away?
"It will take time to recruit a team to go to the northern snowfields. Also, because my blessed body has been shattered, the situation in Rodel may be a bit turbulent." Monggot paused, "... But don't worry, I will find a way to deal with it. It just takes some time."
"Then I should stay in Rodel and help you a little, right?"
Mungot still shook his head: "Here, you Faded Ones are in a similar situation to the Sons of Evil Omen. Now, staying in the Royal City will do you no good, but will only add to the danger... I have sent people from the Round Table Hall to capture Bernard. If you are willing, you can go with them."
Mungot's words suddenly reminded me of the abandoned branch storyline about the Son of Evil Omen in the game. That is, after he revealed his true identity, the hero was despised and looked down upon by the people in the royal city.
"It's those nobles, right? Teacher, you are also the son of evil omen, they will definitely make things difficult for you... If you are willing, I can help you." I lowered my voice, silently revealing a fierce look.
Mongget was silent for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh: "I don't want you to get involved in such filthy things, Zero. After all... Anyway, I still have some merits to show for myself, so you don't need to worry about me. Besides, the law you want to create is still missing an important part."
I was slightly stunned. As far as I could remember, I had never mentioned that incident to Mongget.
As if he understood my thoughts, the other party continued, "Exiling the evil god... This may not be achieved by just the two restoration laws you mentioned earlier, so take advantage of this time to look for it. If you want to go to the snowfield, I will help you open a secret passage, so there is no need to delay here."
"That, that's not necessary." I responded a little dazed.
However, Mongert's words reminded me: "Oh, teacher, how about taking this opportunity for Rodel to reunite with the royal family of Kalia and Stonewell of Nimgefu? I can be the middleman for you, which can more or less stabilize Rodel's situation, and then the Burning Tree Immigrants will have a place to go."
Monggot raised his eyes and thought for a moment: "This is indeed an idea... However, during the Shattering War, the relationship between Rodel and Kalia was completely broken, I'm afraid..."
"It's okay, it's okay, leave it to me to figure out a solution. Teacher, you just stay in the royal city and wait for my good news~"
I smiled slightly.
Although I don’t have any specific ideas yet, there will always be a way out. If I can really achieve the idea in my mind, I will be able to push away the dark clouds covering the border area and see the dawn again, perhaps it will be just around the corner!
