My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

Sure enough, the time on the clock has reached twelve o'clock.

If there is nothing wrong with Rosaline's memory, then the time she rested yesterday has exceeded twelve o'clock in the evening.

It is impossible that the time has not changed.

In order to verify, Rosaline ran out of the dormitory and did not see anyone until she reached the commercial street.

At this time, many people had gathered in the commercial street. After hearing their words, Rosaline's doubts were put down.

"What's going on today? Why is it still dark?"

"Has there been such a day in the history of the empire before?"

"Damn, I thought it was still dark when I got up in the morning, but I was not sleepy at all. I went downstairs to check the watch. I thought the watch was broken, but it turned out to be dark."

"So do you know what happened?"

"I don't know..."

It seems that in this abnormal weather, people always feel crisis, so they will choose to gather together for warmth.

Rosaline is the same. She would rather stay in the commercial street with her classmates here than stay alone in the dormitory and face this ghost weather and worry.

…

On the other side, Orson found something unusual in the sky after getting up in the morning, and then immediately ordered the whole army to be alert, and then he came to a residence alone.

Because of the war, the Imperial Library has been closed for a long time. Dorothy, who has no work during this period, has been staying alone in a small house. For her, this seemingly boring life is the main theme of her long life.

Dorothy did not feel the abnormality of the sky, because she had been closing the curtains during this period, sleeping when she was tired, and the time had been disordered. There was no meaning for her during the day or night.

Just when she yawned and was about to go to bed, her door was knocked.

She went downstairs, opened the door, and then saw Orson standing at the door.

"Ah, it's Orson, how come you have time to come to see me?"

Dorothy looked at Orson and asked curiously.

"Miss Dorothy, look at the time now."

Orson did not say much polite words, but went straight to the point.

Hearing Orson's words, Dorothy looked through Orson and looked at the sky, then said:

"It's late at night now."

Then, as if she remembered something, Dorothy's face turned red in an instant.

Is Orson hinting at something?

He is definitely hinting at something!

Is there any other meaning for coming to see me late at night besides that kind of thing?

Of course, if Orson didn't mention the time and came to see me late at night, Dorothy could understand that he wanted to discuss the problem, but Orson deliberately mentioned the time, which made Dorothy think about it.

"No... No, Orson, although you and I know each other, there is a big age difference. I have always treated you as a junior. Although it is easy for us to have some misunderstandings when we meet again after a long time, but..."

"..."

Orson heard Dorothy's words, and his head was full of black lines.

Finally, he couldn't help but explain: "Miss Dorothy, do you think it's night now? But in fact, it's daytime now, and it's noon!"

Dorothy was stunned when she heard this.

"Eh? Noon?"

She looked up at the sky, then turned back to look at the clock in the room.

"What? It's obviously twelve o'clock in the evening. I know Orson, you must be joking with me, right?"

"..." Orson saw Dorothy still like this, and couldn't help but sighed.

"No, Miss Dorothy, I'm not joking with you, I'm serious, the sky has changed, and the day has not come as expected."

Orson said this, pointing to the bright moon in the sky.

"This moon has been hanging above my head since last night."

Dorothy saw that Orson did not lie to her, and she also re-examined the sky in front of her.

Looking at the bright moon above her head, she frowned, and then pulled Orson into the house.

"What's the situation outside?"

"It's because I don't know, so I came to ask Miss Dorothy, you are knowledgeable and have a long life, and you must have seen a lot more things than me."

Orson said this, which was considered to be the purpose of his coming here.

He has a good relationship with Dorothy, but it does not mean that Dorothy will definitely help him to seize power and usurp the throne. You know, the immortal species like dragons don't like to interfere in major events in the world.

But the abnormal weather this time is likely related to Arthas's trump card. In order to understand this information clearly, Orson found Dorothy.

After all, there should be no one in Saint Laurent City who has lived for hundreds of years or even longer.

"If, I mean if, it is not a coincidence, the abnormal celestial phenomenon of this "eternal night" should be man-made."

"Orson, you have also learned magic, you should know that the end and extreme of magic is to change nature and common sense at will, including celestial phenomena."

"But, in my impression, those who can do this level must be above the tenth level of your human standard."

"Tenth level...above?"

Hearing this term, Orson's eyelids couldn't help twitching.

Dorothy means that Arthas has a tenth-level strongman to help him?

"Well, it's not level 10. It has to be stronger than level 10 to achieve this level." Dorothy said.

"That is to say, you humans should not have the existence that can cause such anomalies."

"Of course, your royal family has many secrets, and I dare not guarantee that what I said is correct."

To ease Orson's tension, Dorothy explained.

"I dare not say anything else, at least in Saint Laurent City, I have never felt the breath of a strong man above level 10, so this change in the sky may be just a coincidence, or... an illusion."

"However, if the illusion can cover the entire Saint Laurent City, the quality of the illusion itself should not be lower than level 9."

"If the person who releases the illusion is your enemy, you have to be careful."

Hearing Dorothy say this, Orson was a little relieved.

After all, level 9 and level 10 are not of the same order of magnitude. Level 10 only exists in legends, while level 9 at least has vivid examples in every era.

Chapter 63: The Army of the Dead

Inside the palace, after hearing his subordinates report that the time did not match the sky, Langdon immediately found Arthas.

"Your Majesty, look at the sky outside. It should have been dawn, but the moon is still hanging in the sky."

"..."

Arthas shook his head, confident.

He looked at the bright moon in the sky, then glanced at the scepter beside him, feeling extremely satisfied.

In another three hours, he would be able to obtain the power left by his ancestors and completely defeat the rebels.

The scepter, which symbolizes the imperial power, can not only issue decrees to prove the emperor's identity, but also has another function, which is to use this trick to save the fate of the royal family in times of national crisis.

Arthas has royal blood and inherited the royal scepter after Odysseus' death. At this moment, this is his trump card.

He didn't know if Orson and Elsa had any more trump cards, but if their trump cards were not as powerful as his, he would definitely be the winner in the end.

However, the price paid by Arthas was too heavy.

Perhaps, after this war, it will take five to ten years for Saint Laurent to return to its pre-war level.

After all, the number of residents who fled, died in battle, or died of illness during this period accounted for more than half of Saint Laurent.

"Your Majesty?"

At this time, Langdon's words brought him back to reality again.

"Well, don't worry about it, just guard the palace."

Hearing this, Langdon nodded, and then left.

In his heart, he already had his own guesses about this abnormality.

This should be related to Arthas.

...

"Have you tried it?"

"Well, we can't contact the outside world, and the people we sent out have returned to their original places after going around, and they can't get out of Saint Laurent at all."

At the coalition base camp, Orson frowned after listening to Litt's reply.

This problem seems a bit big.

Not only can people outside not come in, it seems that people inside can't go out either. With Saint Laurent City as the center, the area within a radius of 50 kilometers is all shrouded in darkness.

Originally, the coalition had a steady stream of supplies from the outside world, but since the night fell, the supply team has not appeared again.

"It seems... we have to solve it from the inside."

"Lite, when you were taking magic class before, you should have talked about magic circles, right?"

"Yes." Lit nodded after hearing this.

"The so-called magic circle can be understood as magic set up in advance by a magician, because some magic casting processes are quite complicated, and there is no time to use it when it is needed, so a magic circle is needed..."

"Yes, you memorized it very well." Orson praised.

Litt was very happy to hear Orson praising him, and then continued:

"In addition to some cumbersome magic, it is said that there are many powerful magicians who will leave some magic circles as a life-saving talisman for their descendants."

"So, Litt, think about it, the royal family is the oldest existence in the empire. Even if the founding monarch did not consider it, there must be emperors who considered the issue of future generations."

"Then... Orson, you mean, this celestial phenomenon was launched by a magic circle?"

"Well, to launch such a large-scale illusion, you must be a magician above the ninth level to complete it, and it is absolutely impossible that It's not that simple."

"So, I'm more inclined to believe that this is a magic circle that was left behind a long time ago, a trump card used to launch a Jedi counterattack when the royal family is in danger."

Hearing this, Litt was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "But... they can't do anything just relying on this eternal night phenomenon, right? At least so far, no soldiers have felt uncomfortable because of this strange phenomenon."

Hearing this, Orson said worriedly: "So I'm worried, I'm worried that this illusion is only one aspect, and what will really happen... is still to come..."

At this time, Olivia came in from outside with a plate.

"Are you tired too? Eat some fruit."

"Thank you."

Orson thanked him, then picked up a piece of fruit and put it in his mouth.

"If you ask me, this celestial phenomenon is probably caused by the royal family. It is possible that the entire Saint Laurent City is a huge magic circle?"

Olivia interrupted during the break.

Hearing Olivia's words, Litt's eyes lit up.

And Orson also stopped to think for a few seconds, then stood up.

"Give me the map of Saint Laurent City. I want a detailed map with every street and landmark building marked."

Litt was stunned for a moment, then understood what Orson meant, nodded immediately, walked outside and took out the map.

...

On the other side, the suburbs of Saint Laurent City.

As the heart of the empire, Saint Laurent City has convenient transportation and is connected in all directions. In the original war period, it was a place of four wars, and therefore, many corpses were buried in the land here.

At this moment, in the cemeteries around the heroes who died in the war to defend their country, countless emotionless bodies broke out of the ground.

Logically speaking, after hundreds of years, their bodies should have turned into piles of bones, but at this moment, except for their pale skin, they were almost the same as ordinary people, and even retained the armor and weapons they had used in battle.

They woke up in the cemetery, and then, as if they had received orders from their superiors, they gathered into a large square and walked towards Saint Laurent City.
