Skeleton King

When Prince Nishimoto left the Pansy Palace, Angelica undoubtedly became the most powerful woman in the palace.

After the defeat of the Jowett family, Queen Celia exhausted her last strength and sent Prince Aachen away from the palace.After that, like a burning candle, her body gradually decayed.No matter whether it is Prince Xiben who continues to control the government, or His Majesty Ludwig IV regains the royal power, they will no longer set their sights on Queen Celia.This woman who was once the most enviable in the empire was slowly heading towards death under the indifference of everyone. ,

Although she is not dead yet, that day is not far away.

Angelica didn't care about the news that someone sent her through the bird - they told Angelica that Queen Celia would be a lesson for her, and let her take advantage of Prince Nishimoto's doting on her to gain as much power as possible.

Angelica will not be their knife.

Angelica is indeed somewhat similar to Queen Celia's experience.They were not very popular when they first appeared in the capital of the Pansy Empire. Queen Celia was ridiculed by the flourishing nobles because she was the representative of the new nobles, that is, the nouveau riche, because the Jowett family had no background. , squeezed out; Angelica's background is far inferior, but she is luckier than Queen Celia in that she participated in social activities for the first time as the female companion of Prince Xiben, and she was favored by Prince Xiben from the very beginning .

They are also the blue roses of Rose Castle.

But only those who really know Angelika know how big the gap is between them.Angelica is definitely not a woman who echoes what others say.Those who want to incite her with a few words can give up.

"I'm going to the rose garden, and no one is allowed to follow me." Angelica ordered the maid beside her, and walked towards the rose garden.

It used to be His Majesty Ludwig IV's favorite place, and now Angelica often goes there.The well-informed people in the palace know that Angelica used to be Lady Caroline's maid, and that lady loves red roses the most.They thought it was for this reason that Angelica liked the rose garden.

Besides, there are other things in the rose garden now.

Angelica appeared in the rose garden with a small pot of raw meat.A huge white tiger is lying on the edge of the red rose flower bed. The white tiger has a pattern like a burning cloud. From a distance, it looks like there are red wings on both sides of its body that are about to spread.

The reason why Angelica and Prince Xiben first met at Xingyue Lake was because of this flaming tiger.Prince Xiben told Angelica that in commemoration of their meeting, he made a contract with the flaming tiger.

Prince Nishimoto's words were not entirely false.But Angelica only listened to it as sweet talk.

This is a mutated flame tiger, its talent is undoubtedly outstanding.After being contracted by Prince Xiben when he was dying, in just a few years, it has already reached the pinnacle of level nine.

Angelica took a big wooden spoon and fed the chopped fish to the Flame Tiger.This is the meat of fresh glacier cod, which is most loved by Warcraft.If Prince Xiben hadn't entered the Pansy Palace, his princess would not be able to feed it to the monsters in a luxurious way.

"You went hunting again? Why didn't you eat the food prepared by the attendants?" Angelica said to herself to the Flaming Tiger, while her maid was watching from afar.Although Angelika did not allow them to follow, they still came because of duty.Their existence is both protection and surveillance.

Warcraft will only eat food given by its master.

It may be that the process of Prince Xiben's contracting the Flaming Tiger was really not good, unless Prince Xiben ordered it, it usually went out hunting by itself.But since it first saw Angelica, it has been extremely close to her.

This is because of its natural affection for Angelica, and also because of Angelica's subtle care for it over the years.So it is also willing to do something for Angelica within its capacity.

Angelica seemed to think that many years ago, in an ordinary town, many things hadn't happened at that time, and she once chopped up minced meat and fed it to a little monster.Warcraft is really simpler than humans.

Angelica's hand gently caressed the Flame Tiger's soft fur, and occasionally scratched its chin.After a long time, even the maids who watched over Angelika gradually relaxed.Angelica played with the monster contracted by Prince Nishimoto to relieve boredom, what could happen?

Angelica's eyes were looking at the rose garden, but if anyone noticed her pupils, they would find that there were various scrolls in her pupils at this moment.

"It turns out that His Highness is looking for the young master today. Even if he puts all his eggs in one basket, he will not agree to peace talks with the young master..."

There was a soft girl's voice floating among the rose bushes, a voice that was mellow but without emotion.The Flaming Tiger can record what it sees, and the Twin Cities used this method to contact her.It was just Angelica's selfishness that Angela went back and forth so frequently between the living world and the dead world.

Of course, this method also has hidden dangers.

If Prince Xiben asks Blazing Tiger, Blaming Tiger can't hide any secrets.But how could Prince Xiben think that Flaming Tiger and Angelika were in collusion.People in the world believe too much in magic contracts, but they don't know that there is still a long way to go before being loyal to the master and breaking the contract.Just like Bill is to Ace, Flame Tiger is to Prince Nishimoto.

"He also brought an astrology puppet." No one heard Angelika's voice except the Flaming Tiger beside her.

……

Ace not only got the completely broken Hope Star from Jacob - after the alliance contract was signed, Jacob gave him the cracked Hope Star - he also got the information about the astrological puppet According to the information, "The astrological puppet can be used 3 times, and it can maintain the power of the top holy rank for these 3 times. If the astrological puppet directly exerts the power of an existence beyond the holy rank, it will be damaged soon."

Noel was more annoyed by the vacillation of Jacob and the magic island behind him than Ace, and he said coldly, "It's all just nonsense." What worried him even more was, "Jacob once said that we and Prince Xiben can't coexist, but he is unwilling to raise your bet." Is Magic Island still unwilling to make a choice?

Ace didn't think about letting Magic Island solve his enemies, such as Prince Xiben and Princess Muse.The role of some political figures is more useful in such a war of planes than holy powerhouses.What's more, Prince Nishimoto is not only the ruler of the Pansy Empire, but also the sword master.Ace likes to hear Nou say "we", but this does not prevent him from teasing, "Jacob is talking about us, isn't it me?"

Nou's face didn't have the embarrassment that Ace expected, he just glanced at Ace lightly, "Do you think you can escape from me now?" Having tasted the delicious fruit of love, they again It is also impossible to go back to the past.

"You still want to lock me up?" Ace asked with a smile, noticing the dimness in Nou's eyes, knowing that Nou still cared about those things, he said again: "Then I can't wish for it, but..." Ai Si Si's gaze slowly outlined Nuo's perfect body curve.

Nou stamped Ace with his pale lips.

At this time, they had already left Rose Castle.

Jacob and Prince Xiben have already returned to the Pansy Palace.

Their negotiations did not take much time.Everyone knows that their real enemy is in the small plane.Even Ace made concessions on many conditions.

Ace put his arms around Nuoou's waist, and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the Dead Realm first." After that, Ace and the others might go to Night City, Evernight City, Green Castle...but as long as they are not in the Twin Cities, they You still have to be careful to hide your whereabouts, not only to prevent the sneak attack of Prince Nishimoto, but also to prevent the magic island from suddenly turning its face.

The sky in the dead world is still gray and white.The coordinates of the dead world outside the capital of the Pansy Empire is a place called Wanguku.As the name suggests, there are endless bones here.The sky and the earth are the same color, and as far as the eye can see, everything is gray and white.

Only today, something is different.

In this eternal gray and white, a fiery red figure appeared.As soon as Ace and the others arrived in the Dead Realm, they felt waves of heat rushing towards them.

Of the four most common elements in the world—air, fire, water, and earth—in the dead, fire is the weakest.But the existence in front of Ace and the others directly changed the rules of this plane.

"Oh!" Ace sighed, "No!" He finally knew why Nou and Sykes were so afraid of Prince Nishimoto.

Ace knew before that the existence beyond the holy order was very powerful, but he had never seen such an existence, nor had he felt it intuitively like now.

The crimson Judgment Sword appeared in Nou's hand, and he stood in front of Ace.In encounters, Juggernauts are more powerful than Magisters, even if this is the realm of the dead.

"Prince Xiben still made a move." Nuo and others thought that Prince Xiben and Jacob would set up a situation in Rose Castle, because after they signed a contract with Magic Island, those who violated the contract would be backlashed.

So to a certain extent, this is an act of Prince Xiben's independent will.

But it is hard to say whether the magic island has been guessed.

Prince Nishimoto was ready about before he went to participate in the negotiations.He let Ace and Jacob sign the contract, just to determine the location of Ace, and then let the astrological puppets come to the dead to kill them.The location was chosen in the Dead Realm just to avoid harming the innocent civilians in the imperial capital.But Prince Nishimoto's kindness to the common people of the empire is limited to this.

When the astrological puppet just appeared, Ace confirmed the identity of the "person" in front of them,

The "person" in front of them had long fiery hair, mixed with red and gold, and a black cloak covered his shoulders, growing almost to the top of his shoes, with red-orange flames jumping on the cloak, like Fire spirits danced, twirled and sang on it.The flames did not damage his cloak, which was undoubtedly an extremely rare magic item.In other words, every item on this "person" is very precious.

Including himself.

The astrology puppet is like the person who escaped from the magic island in the small plane that Ace met before. His body is covered with mysterious runes. These runes are somewhat similar to the magician's formation, but they come from a completely different system from the magician. .

Ace asked, "Are you scared?"

Nuo Ou said: "It's always you who are afraid of trouble, afraid of getting hurt, afraid of not being able to rush back home for dinner."

Ace: ...

"Well, it looks like you're not nervous at all." Ace said, "Speaking of which, we haven't fought together yet."

If Ace has a hat in his hand at this time, he can turn it up, "We have known each other for 10 years, and we have never met an enemy that can make us join forces. Dugu seeks defeat."

Nuoou couldn't stand him anymore, "It's obvious that you used to pretend to be a fool and hide behind me." The sword of judgment seemed to rise from the magma, and it attacked the astrological puppet like a comet.
