Skeleton King

There are 81 towers in the city that never sleeps, which means 81 mountains in the realm of chaos.

The largest tower is in the palace on the top of the city that never sleeps. It is said that it is the residence of the lord of the city that never sleeps.The Lord of the Nightless City is the most mysterious existence in the Territory of Chaos. Few people have seen him, but his legends are spread everywhere.

On the tower is a black banner, above which are looming stars.The towers near the top of the city that never sleeps represent stronger mountains. The flag of Mount Mom is two dice, the flag of Mount Lipton is a clover, and the flag of Mount Taya is drawn with two lines outlining the graceful figure of a girl.

These towers are not only a symbol of the mountains of the Territory of Chaos, but also the eyes of the formation of the city that never sleeps.

Unlike Eternal Night City, where Ace can easily find dozens of Skeleton Knights above level 9 to guard the formation eyes, in Nightless City, he can only use a large number of magic towers instead.Yes, these seemingly ordinary towers are actually six-pointed magic towers. They are as high as nine floors, enough for a ninth-level magician to use.

When Ace first appeared in the city that never sleeps, even the unknown sword master didn't react, and little Daniel jumped out of the Skeleton King's palace and hit Ace's arms like a small cannonball.

Ace hugged little Daniel into his arms with a smile, and said, "Are you being naughty? Did you cause trouble for Uncle Art and the others?"

In response to Ace was the black bubble blown by little Daniel.

Appearing behind little Daniel was Alt, who also heard Ace's question, but no matter how ignorant his subordinates would be, he would not sue the big boss for a child in front of the big boss, let alone Alt was the leader of the army, EQ can't be bad.Art said: "Little Daniel stays in the old Skeleton King's palace on weekdays, and rarely goes out." Going out will turn the city that never sleeps upside down.

"He can't talk yet, and he won't cling to people all the time." Nine tenths of the day must be accompanied by someone, and every hour someone must explain to him why Ace is not there and why he can't take him with him. he.

Alter felt that the teleportation formations in Evernight City and Nevernight City were to save the Unnamed Sword Master and him. Little Daniel stayed in Nevernight City for two days, and the rest of the week was given to General Arnold, Lich Ingersoll and the others.Pity them single dogs, they are either unmarried or old widowers, and they have to be their highness's dads.

"Really? It seems that our little Daniel is very good." His own children are always the best, and Ace didn't find anything wrong with what Alter said.He jolted little Daniel, making him giggle.

Alter is really ashamed to say that they can't even handle a child whose IQ is not yet fully developed, but if he knew the origin of little Daniel and knew that his infancy lasted for hundreds of years, he might not be so dead in front of Ace. up.

Art asked: "Did your Highness come back suddenly?"

Ace smiled and said, "I've already designed the magic circle for digging the black gemstone mine. After I arrange the magic circle, you can arrange manpower. How is the city that never sleeps?"

Ace was just asking routinely, but he didn't expect to get an unusual answer.Art didn't hide anything, and said directly: "It's mainly this month that some people of unknown origin appeared on a few hills."

Ace repeated, "Someone of unknown origin?"

"Bill came to see it before and said he looked like someone from Magic Island. But in order to avoid alarming the enemy, we haven't had time to confirm it yet." Alter said.

Art and the others didn't directly capture these people, which means that they are now completely under the control of the city that never sleeps, and they just laid the bait to get more clues.Ace kept this matter in mind, and asked Alt to confirm the identity and purpose of the visitor, "It's useless for Magic Island to want the Territory of Chaos, which is a remote place. It should be for the Black Gem Mine. The magic circle in the city is here, so don’t worry about the knights, but be careful of sneak attacks by the strong.”

Art naturally agreed.

Ace thought of another thing, "Do you still have correspondence with Angelica?"

Art was stunned, he didn't expect Ace to ask about it, "Yes. Not many. There will be one or two letters every month."

Ace said again: "Did you mention the Territory of Chaos?"

Art's intuition was wrong, but he didn't understand what happened, so he said truthfully: "I have mentioned, I told Angelica that if she doesn't want to be in the imperial capital, she can come to the Territory of Chaos and talk about daily things, but the specifics of the city that never sleeps I have never put the military deployment in the letter."

Ace looked at Alter as if he was mentally retarded, "Be careful." Although Ace didn't show it obviously, Arter still noticed it.

Arter felt uneasy, he had to make the worst guess, "Did something happen to Angelica? She... Did she betray the young master?"

Seeing the expression on his idiot subordinate's imminent disaster, Ace decided to hold his hand high and let him go, "Not yet. It's just that her communication channel may be monitored, and ordinary communication methods should not be used anymore. If you have a letter to her , you can ask Angela to help pass it on, I know you are not very good at government affairs, Angelica has helped me deal with many things before, you can also listen to her opinion."

After Ace finished speaking, he pulled back little Daniel who was floating in the air, "Little Daniel, let's go, I'll take you to the black gem mine. But you can't hide too much secretly."

Only Alte was left standing where he was, feeling that something was falling straight in his heart, what did the young master mean by "not yet" betrayal, and if Angelica's loyalty was questionable, why did he hand over the government affairs of the city that never sleeps to On her hand?

Ace had already taken little Daniel away, but suddenly turned around and looked at Art.

Under the starlight in the sky, Ace's eyes seem to be able to see through the world, "Alter, don't think too much. The most important thing for you now is to break through the sword master. Although there are many liches in the dead world, their strength after they come to the world It will be greatly reduced. When this magic island is about to move, our strength is not as strong as we imagined."

"The purpose of handing over the government affairs of the city that never sleeps to Angelica is to make her more aware of the situation in the empire and give her more weight." Moreover, Angelika is in Rose Castle, and Prince Nishimoto likes it, even if she is not with Ace. They share information, and when dealing with the affairs of the city that never sleeps, she will have a better perspective than others.Ace said: "As long as you lead the Nightless Knights to guard this place, it will be unbreakable."

……

Pansy Empire Northwest.

Fenfur finally finished her diagnosis and treatment, and was about to go back to her room to rest, when she heard Jonah arguing with other people at the door.

Fenfur went to the back of the door and saw Jonah pushing those people and not letting them in, "How many times have I said that you are not welcome here, please don't come again. Unless one day you are dying of illness , Princess Fenfur won't leave her alone."

The corners of Fenfur's plump mouth were slightly raised. From Fenfur's point of view, Jonah's temper couldn't be better, and the person must be in a hurry, so Jonah would be so reckless.

"Come in."

Jonah and the two young men who were confronting him looked in the direction of Fenfur at the same time. If they understood correctly, Fenfur agreed to talk to them.

Fen Fuer has been in the Northwest for several months. During this time, she has treated countless people and is used to seeing life and death.For Fenfur, the matter in front of her was already a breeze.

Fenfur looked at Jonah pouring water for the two young people who had just sat down, and said casually, "This place is simple, there is no good tea, please don't mind."

"His Royal Highness, Princess Xie Fenfur, this is very good."

"How could Her Royal Highness Princess Fenfull live in such a dilapidated place? If it weren't for Xiben Keaoser's wolf ambition, Her Highness would still be enjoying the honor in the imperial capital."

The two visiting young men couldn't wait to reply to Fenfur's words, but the former was still a little embarrassed, while the latter was already arguing for Fenfur.

Fen Fuer smiled, her ill-fated fate brought her a different kind of demeanor, seeing the change in her expression, the two young people in front of her were stunned.It's just that Fenfur's words are not as kind as hers, like an invisible dagger cut a bloody wound, "If Brother Xiben is ambitious, then what is the Jowett family?"

Fenfur first came to the northwest of the Pansy Empire to join the Jowett family. She also studied light magic in the Pansy Palace and the Finger Palace. She heard that the Northwest is barren, and she wanted to help Joey as much as she could. special family.One day His Majesty Ludwig IV regains his freedom, or Prince Aachen returns to the imperial capital, she can also help the Jowett family reverse the case.Fenfur had such expectations.

But after the Jowett family came to visit, Fenfur took Jonah to visit the elders of the Jowett family twice, but she caught the loophole in the other party's words.

The Jowett family was sent to the Northwest, and it was not wronged at all.

Fenfur said: "I know what my father is most afraid of, not the Finger Empire, because they are not to be feared at all. What my father is most worried about is Magic Island. Ruby mines were found on the land of the Jowett family, and all of them were dedicated to magic. Island, and with the support of Magic Island, all the knights have been replaced with magic armor, which is not available to the Royal Guard Knights. Are you loyal to Magic Island or the Pansy Empire?"

The young man from the Jowett family who came to look for Fenful lowered his head decadently, "Princess Fenful, the family also has difficulties."

……

Pansy Palace.

Prince Siben, Prime Minister Colvin, and several ministers were sitting in the chamber. The foreign minister was reporting the news he had received to Prince Xiben. There is a middle-level bright mage who often treats civilians in the northwest on a voluntary basis, is very prestigious, and may be Princess Fenfur."

After the foreign minister finished speaking, he looked carefully at Prince Nishimoto's face.The other ministers looked at their noses and their hearts, as if they hadn't heard about it.

Prince Xiben didn't care at all, and his voice was flat, "My poor sister Fenfur has been killed by the femme fatale princess Muse of the Finger Empire, and if she appeared in the barren northwest, someone must have taken her place. Impersonating a princess is an unforgivable crime, and if anyone finds out, just kill him immediately."

All the ministers felt chilly in their hearts. Even if the one who appeared in the northwest was really Princess Fenfur, she would be executed by the local knights as a counterfeit.But for such a princess who has no right of inheritance and was married to the royal family of Finger, even the most impartial minister of the interior would not contradict Prince Xiben for her.

There was a faint cold sweat on the top of the foreign minister's head, "As for Prince Aachen, we have no news about him since he disappeared in the imperial capital."

The foreign minister was also worried about Prince Xiben's fury, but Prince Xiben just waved his hand, "Brother Xiben is more courageous than I thought, and he ran to the North Sea."

"Your Highness..."

The Minister of Foreign Affairs wanted to ask how Prince Xiben got this information. Except for some of the personnel affairs of the Ming Dynasty Capital being in charge of the Duke Green, the other was dispatched by the Minister of the Interior with him.But the foreign minister knew that every emperor had his secrets, so he dared not ask any more.

Prince Xiben casually flipped through the parchment on the long table, which recorded the people the empire was looking for but couldn't openly issue arrest warrants, and he said to himself: "I can accept the stupidity of my subordinates, as long as they are loyal enough. You can be lazy and not find the person I want you to find, but if you know but don’t tell me, I don’t mind hanging some decorations on the spears on the city wall.”

Prince Xiben's words seemed to point to something, and the eyes of other ministers present all turned to Prime Minister Colvin, who didn't know that Prime Minister Colvin's second son, Christian Colvin, followed in Aachen By the prince's side.Only the Marquis Ross, the Minister of the Interior, could feel the meaningful gaze of Prince Nishimoto on him.

Prince Xiben's eyes quickly swept from top to bottom. Unlike the densely packed handwriting on the previous parchment scroll, the last parchment scroll contains very little information, just two lines——
