Chapter 995: Assassinating the 9th Prince and Taking Control of the Castle of Thorns
Inside the Throne of Thorns Castle.
"Nero!"
"The lives of the Iron Guards cannot be used like this."
"Even if they are dead soldiers, they should be used in more useful places."
Miller said, frowning.
But Nero, as the younger brother, grinned and said.
"Brother, there are also disloyal people in the Iron Guard!"
"Wouldn't it be more beneficial for us to clear them out in advance?"
Miller shook his head.
"A king should not only kill."
"More often than not, we have to learn to compromise."
"Nero, we need to win over the neutrals!"
"Only by making more people our allies can we win!"
Nero shrugged.
"Brother, that's what you have to do."
Although Miller knew what kind of person his brother was.
But still very angry.
Seeing Miller's expression.
Nero could only wave his hands.
"I know, I know."
"Dear brother."
“That’s not the main reason why I do this.”
"Old Six doesn't have many assassins under his command."
"The king is in our hands. I order them to die by the king's order. They must obey us."
“But Lao Liu is different.”
"Although the Magic Crystal Warriors are not much worse than us."
“But they are not dead soldiers.”
“It’s okay to go shopping on the first day.”
"But there's no way they could survive the next day."
"I'm sure they won't be able to hold out at the martial arts tournament tomorrow morning."
"Then everyone will see who is the most powerful person in the capital."
Miller frowned.
"Nero, the first day of bloody battle has proven that the Sixth Prince has the strength to fight against you."
"Refuse to fight a bloody duel the next day."
"It won't give you any more advantages!"
"The lives of the Iron Guards cannot be wasted like this."
"I want you to stop your stupid behavior."
Compared to my younger brother.
Miller knows the importance of iron guards even more.
It is totally not worth wasting the lives of the Iron Guards in vain on such a grudge match.
"Humph!"
The Ninth Prince responded with dissatisfaction.
"elder brother."
"You have more important things to do."
"You must ensure the safety of the Iron Guard Commander."
"He died outside. It was a devastating blow to us!"
"You won't need to worry about the tournament."
"The safety of the commander-in-chief requires your protection even more."
Miller was slightly stunned.
His brother's words made him furious.
Just as he was about to scold Nero.
The looks from the guards around him made Miller feel a chill in his heart.
"Nero has completely controlled the Iron Guard."
"Good good."
"You are worthy of being my good brother."
Miller was not surprised but delighted by Nero's performance.
"You can rest assured about that brother."
Miller stopped talking nonsense and turned to leave the Castle of Thorns.
And after he left.
Behind Nero, a fully armored guard appeared.
This is the deputy commander of the Iron Guard.
No one knew that he already had legendary strength.
Nero promised him a higher title.
Prince!
This is also the reason why the deputy commander is willing to support him unconditionally.
"Jem!"
"Tomorrow morning, I will continue to invite you to fight."
"If Lao Liu doesn't dare to fight."
"Then assassinate the nobles who are loyal to him in the capital."
"I want to see how long he can hold on."
Nero's various actions were intended to force the Sixth Prince to take action.
Create chaos in the capital.
Then he led his troops to massacre the royal capital.
No one would know that behind Nero was the power of the evil god.
God of Red Flame!
This god who came with Fang Yuan at the end.
He never showed up.
In addition to using all his divine power to transform dragon knights.
The most critical step is to create a puppet that is loyal to you.
The God of Red Flame consumed a large amount of divine power for this purpose.
The god-level scroll - the power of puppet was manifested.
Able to control seven puppet targets for your own use.
And it won't be discovered.
The Ninth Prince is a puppet he controls in the Alpha Kingdom.
Besides.
In the capitals of the other six countries, there are puppets controlled by the Ninth Prince.
The purpose of the God of Red Flame doing this is to control the royal family of every secret kingdom.
Wait until Fang Yuan is dealt with.
By then!
Take advantage of the hidden hand in ambush.
By the way, let's get rid of the evil god as well.
This is the ultimate goal of the God of Red Flame.
In this secret realm, one game decides everything!
The deputy commander of the Iron Guard behind the Ninth Prince can be bribed.
The Red Flame God's Chamber of Commerce provided tremendous help.
To the order from the Ninth Prince.
The unconditional support of the deputy commander of the Iron Guard.
"Don't worry, sir."
“Everything has been arranged.”
"Tomorrow morning, I have plenty of ways to force the Sixth Prince to leave."
"He has the strength to defeat him in the tournament."
“This is a rare opportunity.”
The deputy commander of the Iron Guard grinned.
“Jem.”
"The old king still has some."
"Just send them."
The deputy commander of the Iron Guard was a little hesitant.
"What, you can't do it?"
"No, the king also has a deputy commander."
"I can't command."
"Unless the king can wake up and let them fight."
Nero squeezed the alchemical potion on his body.
"never mind."
“There are only so many times you can wake up.”
"If this happens a few more times, he will die early."
And just then.
There was a sound outside.
"Your Mightiness."
"Efron, the Earl from the border, wants to see you."
Hear the name.
The ninth prince was stunned for a moment.
"Who?"
"Efron, never heard of it!"
"Leave the nobles who have surrendered to me to my brother to deal with!"
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"But this nobleman named Efron said that he had just met the Sixth Prince."
"The other party promised a duke's title in exchange for the information he had."
As soon as these words came out.
It immediately aroused the interest of the Ninth Prince.
"The title of Duke!"
"What news did he tell me?"
"No, the other party asked to see you before telling me!"
The Iron Guard commander beside him said after hearing this.
"Is it an assassin?"
"The assassins I encountered before all said the same thing."
The Ninth Prince sneered.
"The earl of the border."
“This is a fiefdom of real power.”
"No matter how powerful Old Six is."
"It is absolutely impossible to send the earl of the fiefdom here as a death warrior."
"If he has this ability, we don't have to fight."
"It should be a speculative nobleman."
"Someone, bring him here to see me."
"Qingfeng."
"The Ninth Prince is different from the Sixth Prince."
"Enter the Castle of Thorns. You are responsible for dealing with the iron guards around you."
"Guderian, you come to complete the kingship plunder."
"Christian."
"You keep me safe."
This time, Fang Yuan brought three heroes.
While protecting yourself, you must also control the Ninth Prince as quickly as possible.
As for whether it will be exposed.
Just an assassination.
Nor did he say success.
Besides, the ninth prince is different from the sixth prince.
The Ninth Prince is in the Castle of Thorns.
Kill all the guards and you will succeed.
When Fang Yuan arrived at the Castle of Thorns.
News soon came from inside.
"Your Mightiness."
"Please come in!"
"But your guard!"
The two hundred knights behind him were stopped.
Fang Yuan had no intention of bringing them in.
"I need protection."
"They follow me in."
Guderian and Christian followed on both sides.
There were only two of them, and the Iron Guards did not persist.
Soon they appeared in front of the Ninth Prince.
And just when they saw each other.
A hint of suspicion appeared on the Ninth Prince's face.
"this person!"
"It looks like the one the God is looking for!"
And when Fang Yuan saw the other party.
A sense of crisis arose in my heart.
"Do it!"
Fang Yuan didn't hesitate at all.
Qing Feng, who was hiding in the dark, was the first to take action.
The dagger pierced the Iron Guard commander's neck.
This legendary master.
He died without even having the chance to let out a scream.
At the same time Guderian jumped up.
The Spear of Gondor in his hand stabbed out.
It pierced through the iron guards protecting both sides.
Then he appeared at the side of the Ninth Prince.
"King's plunder!"
A powerful force enveloped the Ninth Prince.
And this scene was completed in a flash.
Wait until the other guards react.
The Ninth Prince has been controlled.
The remaining Iron Guards saw this.
There was a roar.
"Let go of the Ninth Prince."
"thorn~"
The one who was about to call for help was pierced by a bullet.
Christian took action.
The light elf transformed into a spear and accurately killed the iron guard who tried to shout.
"do not move!"
"If you move, you will die!"
Christian held a spear in his hand and scanned the entire place with a stern gaze.
The Iron Guards were intimidated by his aura.
He pulled out half of the sword, but didn't dare to move at all.
And this time.
Guderian, who was controlling the ninth prince and exercising his royal power to plunder, suddenly frowned.
The royal plundering skill was suddenly retracted.
At the same time, seven colors of light flashed on the Ninth Prince's body.
"This is!"
"God level!"
"Wait, you're not the Ninth Prince!"
Guderian exclaimed.
"who are you?"
"I am the ninth prince Nero."
"Iron Guard!"
"protect me!"
Nero, realizing that he was fine, immediately started shouting.
"Control him!"
Fang Yuan gave the order decisively.
Guderian shot Nero and knocked him unconscious.
"I'll tell you why I feel that way."
"It turns out to be a puppet controlled by the evil god."
Fang Yuan was much calmer at this time.
His eyes fell on the ninth prince.
Then he said to the guards around him.
"I am Efron, the Border Count."
"This is my noble emblem."
“Perhaps you don’t know my name.”
"But you must have heard of the name of Moulin Rouge."
After hearing this, the Iron Guards showed surprise in their eyes.
Compared to others, the iron guards following the king obviously knew more information.
The border war with the orcs.
They had heard the title of the Count of Moulin Rouge many times in the King's presence.
Know that this is a newly rising force on the border.
Before the King was completely controlled.
I thought about transferring Efron back to the capital.
Subdue him and use him for your own benefit.
pity!
It's all a little late.
Heidi told Fang Yuan this information after finding out.
After seeing the expressions of the Iron Guards.
Fang Yuan's heart moved slightly.
A new plan was immediately proposed.
"The king once sent a messenger to contact me."
"Summon me back to the capital."
"In the secret letter, the king said that the ninth prince was abnormal."
"It seems to be related to the evil god."
"But the border war had not yet been settled."
“So there was a delay.”
"I just didn't expect that when I returned."
“The situation has come to this point.”
"And the Ninth Prince is really a puppet of the evil god."
"Did you see the seven-color light on him?"
"That is the divine power that belongs exclusively to the evil god!"
"I think you are the Iron Guards, you should know this."
Fang Yuan's words were half true and half false.
Even though the Iron Guards had some doubts.
But it feels very real.
"So, His Excellency the Count is entering the capital this time."
"Just to test it?"
Fang Yuan nodded.
"I just didn't expect him to be exposed so quickly."
Then another guard spoke up and asked.
"Your Excellency."
"You said the king gave the order."
"Then can you show it to us?"
"After all, we follow the king around and have never heard of this incident."
Fang Yuan glanced at it.
While thinking about whether to kill this talkative guy.
A figure walked in from outside.
"I am the king's messenger."
"I have been ordered to go to the border."
"Except for dealing with orcs."
"And also to deliver secret orders to the Count of Moulin Rouge."
“Although the Count of Moulin Rouge was only a baron at that time, his achievements had already been known to the king.”
"I can vouch for Efron!"
at this time.
Guderian sensed Kro and decisively ordered him to appear.
And Kroben had been sent to the border in the past.
He is also the country's chief alchemist.
With his evidence, what Fang Yuan just said was even more true.
At this time, the Iron Guards drew out half of their swords.
Start to retract slowly.
After all, it's in the Alpha Kingdom.
Hatred of the gods is above all else.
The centurions of the remaining Iron Guards stood up at this time.
"Your Mightiness."
"Then the Ninth Prince should be handed over to the Council of Nobles for disposal."
For this suggestion.
Fang Yuan refused.
The nobles who have colluded with the evil god will be handed over to the Noble Council for trial.
This is in accordance with the laws of the kingdom.
Especially since the Ninth Prince has a noble status.
No force is qualified to deal with him.
Only through the House of Lords.
By doing this, you can also gain huge benefits.
As the first noble to expose and capture the Ninth Prince.
The Council of Nobles will give generous rewards.
Especially at this most critical moment of the fight for the crown prince.
Helped the opponent kill the strongest one.
The new king ascended the throne and was definitely the most powerful duke in the kingdom.
But by doing so, Fang Yuan himself would be exposed.
At that time, the remaining six countries will launch an attack under the control of the evil god.
Lilith's potion has not been made yet.
The whole situation will develop in an unfavorable direction.
Therefore, it is impossible for Fang Yuan to reveal his identity at the moment.
"Not yet."
Fang Yuan looked at the Iron Guard Centurion and said.
"In the fight for the crown prince, there is more than one supporter of the evil god."
"I must find them one by one to live up to the king's trust."
These words made the Iron Guards feel a little admiration.
They were originally loyal to the king.
It's just that the king was controlled, and they could only obey the orders of the Ninth Prince.
This was a flaw in the Iron Guard that no one had noticed before.
Now it is discovered that it is fatal.
Now Fang Yuan appeared, not only did he take down the Ninth Prince.
They no longer need to be controlled by others.
Moreover, Fang Yuan, like them, was a nobleman loyal to the king.
This made the Iron Guards feel more favorable towards Fang Yuan.
"Your Mightiness."
"What do you want us to do?"
Fang Yuan looked at Kro.
"Is there any chance that the king will wake up?"
"No, I was poisoned by the alchemical toxin. Every time I wake up, I am closer to death."
Fang Yuan looked at the Iron Guard.
"We still need the king, so we can't wake him up for now."
"During this time."
"Everyone please obey my orders."
The Iron Guard clasped his fists.
"I will follow your orders."
"it is good."
"Kro, take the people to control the Alchemy Association first."
"Yes!"
"Christian, take our knights and take over the Castle of Thorns immediately."
"Call all the Iron Guard centurion officers. I want their support."
"Guderian."
"Inform your knights to enter the city immediately."
"Prepare to attack Prince Miller!"
Orders were given one after another.
Fang Yuan's army entered the Castle of Thorns one after another.
The center of the Alpha Kingdom was easily controlled by Fang Yuan.
Then in front of the centurion.
Fang Yuan displayed the power of the evil god in the Ninth Prince.
All the Iron Guards fell towards Fang Yuan.
Just as he was about to give the order to kill Prince Miller.
suddenly!
It was ablaze outside.
An iron guard ran in hurriedly.
"Your Mightiness!"
"Outer City. Outer City has rebelled!!!" (End of this chapter)
