Chapter 208 The King Killer

"Take off your mask." The Nord wearing black keel armor turned his head and looked at Rhodes.

Rhodes felt that it was difficult for him to breathe. The sense of oppression brought by this person was dozens of times stronger than that brought to him by the dragon man he met before, and his voice had a special magical power, which made people Want to surrender.

Rhodes took off his mask. The Nord helped him once before. If it wasn't for him, he might be killed by the ice mage who is good at destruction.

"Do I seem to have seen you somewhere?" asked the Nord in black keel armor.

"Below the walls of the fortress, you also said that I helped you a lot and killed all those crossbowmen." Rhodes replied.

The Nord nodded thoughtfully and said, "Did you kill these people with the bed crossbow? Alas, my original plan was to capture the emperor of the Roman Empire alive and let him send his only son to him." Come and take him hostage and let him back. But it's not your fault, if it wasn't for you, they would all have escaped."

Rhodes thought about it from the perspective of the Nord Kingdom. If he was the king of Nord, he would definitely hope that the emperor of the Roman Empire was still alive, and let this "smart person" be his opponent, and he still had The only son of the emperor of the empire is taken as a hostage, and he has the final say on whether a large-scale war will occur between the two countries.

However, he felt that there was something wrong with the behavior of those knights just now. The knight who valued honor and stayed here to fight to the death just now was talking about avenging his dead brother, not the emperor.

This is very wrong.

And if the emperor died, as the knights protecting the emperor, they ran back safely and there was no good end.And why did the old mage choose to overdraw his life to help several knights escape?

Rhodes carefully thought about the actions of those knights before, and he guessed that the emperor in the carriage should be fake, and the real emperor was the knight in gorgeous armor.

"The one in the carriage is fake, the emperor of the Roman Empire is not dead, let's chase after him!" Rhode shouted.

The Nord looked at him suspiciously.

"No time to explain, get in the car, oh no, find the horse." Rhodes shouted again...

Carreno, with his machete on his back, rode along the bloody road and chased the emperor's party who had run away earlier.

These idiots, who didn't even know that they had left so many traces, insisted on bringing the sorcerer who obviously couldn't survive.

He tightened his grip on the horse's belly and made the horse speed up. He planned to catch up with the emperor and the others, and then execute the pre-arranged plan.

After about a quarter of an hour, Kai Leno caught up with the three men.

"How did you find us?" asked the knight in ornate armor.

"Dean, you idiot, this dying old guy on your back is bleeding all over the floor, I followed the blood and found you." Kai Leno looked at another knight and said loudly, the old mage behind the knight Already passed out.

"If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't even be able to get out of the castle." Dean responded angrily.

"But he's dying now, and he's useless, so let's leave him here, lest he cause us to be caught by those Nords." Said the knight in gorgeous armor.

Dean looked at him in disbelief. He couldn't believe that the emperor would just abandon a hero who had saved his life and his honor.

"This is an order!" roared the emperor.

The next moment, a blade of light flashed across, and his head flew into the sky.

Keleno took out a cloth and carefully wiped the blood off his machete.

"Are you crazy? He is our emperor." Dean said excitedly.

"In the past, the future emperor will be Duke Elvis." Keleno replied flatly.

"But..." Dean wanted to speak again, but was interrupted by Kai Leno.

"Don't do it, I've already hacked him to death, and if you kill me again, I'll hack you to death too." Kai Leno was a little unhappy.

Dean was silent. He thought he was no match for Kai Leno. If the two fought, he would have to sacrifice meaninglessly.

"I didn't kill the emperor. He was killed by the Nord while he was sitting in the carriage. Do you understand?" Keleno asked, staring at Dean.

"But if the emperor is dead, then we..." Dean was interrupted by Kai Leno again.

"You just need to remember this, Lord Marquis Eric has already arranged everything for us, we were ordered to leave the fortress before the fall of the castle to carry out the mission he arranged, so we were not by the emperor's side when he died. "Careno stared at Dean and said seriously, "For the sake of our relationship for so many years, I don't want to kill you, so I hope you don't be stupid. Remember, if you don't follow what I said, the only trouble is It will be you, Lord Marquis helped me arrange another escape route."

Dean nodded. In fact, in his heart, he also hoped that Duke Elvis could become the emperor, so that he could stay with such a charismatic person like him every day, instead of the one who only knew him every day. A silly emperor who eats, drinks and has fun.

"Come down now, we'll dig a hole and bury him," Keleno said.

"I have another question to ask. The emperor once held a public trial in the square of the fortress. What if the people in the fortress recognize that the person in the carriage is not him?" Dean asked again.

"I want to emphasize again, we have secretly left the fortress to carry out the secret mission arranged by the deputy commander-in-chief of the fortress, Sir Eric Marquis, so we don't even know whether the emperor is dead or alive. And we are sitting in a carriage The person we found was someone we purposely found, have you forgotten?" Kai Leno explained.

Dean suddenly remembered. He seemed to remember that some time ago, when someone registered the mercenary information in the fortress, they found a mercenary who looked very similar to the emperor. Everyone wondered if it was the emperor's father or some elder. illegitimate son, and took him to the castle.

Dean was preparing the horses in the stables while they were discussing the plan. He had originally been ordered to lead a group of knights to charge the Nord army at the gate of the castle wall, but the mission was suddenly canceled, but he never See who is in that carriage.

"We dig a pit in another place to bury the emperor's body. Those Nords may be able to find the pit along the bloodstains, and then deduce something. Not every Nord is a barbarian with well-developed limbs and a simple mind." said Dean.

"You've become smarter, kid." Kai Leno nodded in praise.

He walked to the emperor's body and scorched the wounds on the emperor's neck and head with flames, so that the blood would no longer flow out.

"I will take the emperor's body and find a place to burn it. You take this old guy to a safe place, but I am sorry to tell you that this old guy is dead." Kai Leno said, he suddenly realized that the burning It's better to drop a corpse than to bury it...
