Skeleton King

Because when other people didn't notice, the accompaniment of the band had stopped, everyone on the dance floor stopped dancing in doubt, and everyone's eyes were focused on the middle of the dance floor.

Prince Nishimoto took Angelica's hand and stood there.

Nuo Ou has known Prince Xiben for several years, but he has never seen him smile so brightly and purely, it is not the kind of aristocratic smile with slightly pursed lips, the white teeth are shining under the light of the magic lamp, the joy is like The rising sun sprinkled into the hearts of all present.He looked so ordinary, like an ordinary man who fell in love.He is so unusual, he is personable, showing the demeanor of a king.

Prince Xiben looked around and said slowly but firmly: "Today, on this important day, I have something extremely important to announce." He looked at Angelica with affection in his eyes, "When I was earlier, Proposed to Miss Angelica, and she said yes."

No one spoke at the banquet, and everyone was astonished as if they had aphasia.

Prince Nishimoto said: "Miss Angelica Pfeiffer is the most beautiful and intelligent woman I have ever met. The luckiest thing in my life is not to become the crown prince of the empire, nor to be an advanced sword master, but to know her , fell in love with her.

Today is Miss Angelica Pfeiffer's 25th birthday.I think this day will also be the anniversary of our engagement in the future.

Scholars from Myron University have accepted my invitation to go to the imperial capital. In a month later, in the Pansy Palace, I will formally marry Miss Angelica Pfeiffer and make her my princess. "

Angelica smiled softly.Angelica's facial features are actually quite outstanding. No matter which one is used alone, it can make an ordinary girl into a beauty, but when combined together, it makes her very ordinary.Even in this exciting moment, her etiquette is so perfect that no one can fault it.The jealous eyes of the noble ladies almost overwhelmed her, but it also made some people who didn't understand Prince Xiben nod to her secretly.

Angelica smiled gently at the guests present. She looked dignified and dignified, without the petty air of being a maid, nor did she appear apprehensive or humble.When her gaze caught on to Nou, their eyes met for an instant, and soon, their eyes moved away and staggered very naturally.

Nuo Ou thought that many years ago, they first went to Green Castle in the eastern plains of the Louisiana province. At that time, he was still a noble boy who could not practice at home. After discovering that Ace was missing, he could only point his long sword at Angie angrily. Lika, she was the same at that time as now, with a gentle and perfect smile.

Who would have thought that that ordinary little maid back then would soon become the princess of this empire.

……

It was very quiet in the cellar.

There was no sound, and no sign of any living beings, if they did not go to the innermost chamber of the cellar.There were no guards outside the cellar either, and no one guarded it specially.Except that there are a lot of good old wines, the cellars of the Duke Green's Mansion are no different from those of other nobles' homes in the imperial capital.

But today, another uninvited guest came to the cellar.

Ace shook his head at General Arnold who suddenly appeared, "Why are you today? Not Angela?"

General Arnold knelt down on one knee and said, "The 25 saints from Magic Island have arrived outside the city that never sleeps last night."

Ace sat on the ground, frowned, and murmured, "So fast?" Different from the knights of the two empires, they still need to travel long distances. It only takes half a day.

General Arnold took out a 64-square chessboard from the space ring and placed it between him and Ace.The war of planes has turned into a black and white chessboard, and all beings in the world are princes and generals on this chessboard, and everyone is in this game.General Arnold said: "His Royal Highness is fine here, it's rare for me to come, let's play a game of chess with His Royal Highness."

Ace looked at the chessboard and thought of the layout he had with General Arnold. If he just defended the city, even if the magic island had a backup, the city that never sleeps would still be invincible.Ace picked up the chess piece and said, "It's fine if you are here, hundreds of knights from the Finger Empire and the Pansy Empire are about to arrive at Eternal Night City. Don't give Alter a chance to practice his skills. He just wants to ask for help when the time comes." I don’t even know who to turn to.”

After General Arnold and Ace finished speaking, they really put all their energy into the chess game.

……

Never sleeps

Alter stood silently on the top of the city that never sleeps, beside the old Skeleton King's palace.

Little Daniel was still sleeping in the palace, but Art was not worried.Angela brought Ace's message that when the city that never sleeps is in danger, little Daniel will definitely take action—to summon the Skeleton Knights and let them fight against the Holy Order of Magic Island.

At this time, Dongfang's fish belly was slightly white. Originally, it was the quietest time in the city that never sleeps. People in the city that never sleeps don't crow. They usually sleep until noon, work until night, and play all night.Anyway, the magic lamp of the city that never sleeps illuminates every corner of the city, and the night is like day.

But now the city is full of adult men carrying siege equipment or preparing to go to war, women are preparing food, processing armor, and even children are helping to sharpen knives.The people of the city that never sleeps may not be more loyal than the people of the two empires, but they are definitely the ones who cherish their lives the most.

If they didn't know how precious it is to live, it would be impossible for them to live tenaciously in the Territory of Chaos.

Pity.

Alter looked at the youngsters drawn from the training camp of the Knights of the Nightless City. These children were selected door-to-door by unknown sword masters. They had just formed a knight order among them who were over 15 years old.They will also go to the battlefield if the war requires it.In Alter's view, such a presupposition is very possible.

Not far from them, there are still many young girls in magic robes, and only some low-level magicians have been trained in the magic academy that was established in the city that never sleeps.

If they were given a few more years, when the children in the Nightless City Knights Training Camp grew up, they could form a few more well-trained knight orders, and many students in the magic academy would become intermediate mages.

If they were given another few decades, according to the plan of Ace and Alt, they would have more than a dozen elite knight orders, and with enough money to support them, they could also train hundreds of senior magicians.The magic tower in the city that never sleeps will be filled with high-level magicians, and no one can break it anymore. No, the enemies of the city that never sleeps dare not even think about it.

but.

Alter's eyes were heavy, he looked outside the city that never sleeps, as if he could see through the thick walls the holy rank powerhouses of the magic island waiting outside, even now, the people who dare to covet this place in the city that never sleeps will never return.

There are colorful fireworks flashing from the southeast corner of the city that never sleeps. The fireworks are extremely beautiful. The red fireworks are like raging fire, the blue fireworks are like waves, the green fireworks are like leaves, and the brown fireworks are like shooting stars...

These meteors flying across the sky hit the magic circle of the city that never sleeps, and were reflected by the magic circle. After a while, the sky of the city that never sleeps seemed to be holding a grand dance party.

The people who were working in the city that never sleeps couldn't help but stop and stare blankly at the "beautiful scenery" in the sky, but their intoxication didn't last long, and they became terrified, "The holy steps of the magic island are coming, and they are starting to attack us !"

Alter rode on the steed and said to the knights of the Nightless Knights who were already ready to go: "Fight for the city that never sleeps!"

It was the knights of the entire city that never sleeps who answered him, their voices were like a tsunami, "Fight for the Skeleton King!" "The Skeleton King lives forever!"

The gate of the city was opened, and the well-equipped knights rushed out of the city that never sleeps like a long black river. They were going to face not only the holy rank powerhouses of the Magic Island, but also the Royal Guard Knights of the Pansy Empire, Fen Knights of the Eiffel Province of the Georgian Empire.

The timing Alter chose to send out troops was just right. Before the Holy Order of Magic Island had finished singing, they directly fought against the Knights of the Royal Guards of the Pansy Empire and the Knights of the Eiffel Province of the Finger Empire with spears, swords, shields and armor. up.

The neighing of the horses, the cursing of the knights on both sides, the clash of weapons, and the faint, not so loud, but always echoing voices of the mages chanting spells on the battlefield.

Two sword masters joined the battle, and Bill suddenly appeared in front of them, entangled them with his immortal body.

The rest of the Juggernauts guarded the mages.When the mages are chanting magic, their defense is the weakest, and they cannot lack protection.

The knights of the Nightless City Knights met the knights of the Royal Guards of the Pansy Empire and quickly staggered their bodies, while the knights of the Eiffel Provincial Knights of the Finger Empire fought hard.

Sykes didn't ask the Knights of the Royal Guard to release water, he just let his knights firmly control the battlefield instead of killing people.Even from the perspective of the holy ranks of Magic Island, they have a firm upper hand.

The city that never sleeps is a mountain city.The knights still had the tendency to dive down from above, but even their first wave of impact did not cause too much damage to the hostile knights.After fighting back and forth several times, the knights of the Knights of the Nightless City seemed to have fallen into the quagmire, and they were oppressed more and more.

it's time.Alter thought of the increasingly intense magical elements of the light attribute.

The black epee behind Alte turned into a huge sword shadow.This is the mechanism specially designed by Esther after the Nightless City was attacked by the magic island last time, so that Alter's epee can connect to the magic circle below the Nightless City and open another magic circle with a larger radiation range.

Art's eyes looked directly at the holy rank powerhouses of Magic Island through the thousands of troops, and there was pity in his eyes that shouldn't have appeared.For the coming fate of these people.

Yes, he hasn't broken through to the holy rank yet, but their carefully arranged battle plan and the game they set up have to trap so many holy rank powerhouses.

Art's calm heart also became full of pride.He thought, it's great to know His Highness, to be loyal to him, and to gain his trust.He felt the blood in his body boiling, clamoring, and longing.

Eager to fight to the death with the real strong.

The sword shadow behind Alte is getting bigger and bigger, almost as tall as the mountain of the city that never sleeps.The sword shadow moved quickly, it passed through countless iron horses and buildings, and merged with the city that never sleeps.

The holy ranks of Magic Island watched this scene in astonishment. They didn't feel the attack power from the sword shadow, but the sword shadow was too eye-catching to fail to attract their attention.

The attack horn sounded on the walls of the city that never sleeps, and it was extremely sharp. This was an elegy they sent to the knights of the two empires and the magic island.The sword shadow issued by Alter is indeed without attack power, but it is the key to unlock the magic circle of the city that never sleeps.

The magician who was about to complete the forbidden spell on the magic island felt the abnormal magic fluctuations in nature. He opened his eyes wide in horror, and forcibly interrupted the forbidden spell that was about to be chanted regardless of the backlash of the magic power.

With the blood spouted by the mage, and his hoarse voice, "Yes. Forbidden. Magic. Magic. Formation."

After he said these five words with all his strength, he couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground. The sword master next to him was so surprised that he didn't have time to help him.The other mages nearby also stopped chanting the forbidden spell, and they felt that the magic storm they summoned had dissipated in mid-air.

The Forbidden Magic Circle has been fully activated.
