[Devil's Law] When the Tulips Bloom

The final celebration of the tournament was very grand, and it was not much worse than the traditional summer celebration. Du Wei and Prince Chen made enough money through this competition, and it was not necessary to spend some money on this kind of image project. It doesn't make people feel bad, and the people obviously welcome it.A high arena was set up in front of the palace square, and members of the royal family, nobles, and officials took their seats one by one. It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the magic union, His Majesty, the acting pope of the temple, also attended this event very rarely. .

Du Wei, who was sitting at the head of the noble seat, cast his dark eyes on the acting Pope for a moment, and then quickly moved away. The temple did not know why this time, and the things it did recently were always so strange.Things like attending the final celebration of the martial arts tournament are completely inconsistent with the style that the Pope, who considers himself the spiritual leader of the mainland, should have.

Prince Chen's thoughts were almost the same as Du Wei's. Because of the seat relationship, he was able to observe the expression and attitude of the acting Pope more carefully as he sat next to the Acting Pope.The biggest difference between Prince Chen and Du Wei and the Acting Pope is that he is a prince who grew up in a deep palace since he was a child. A superior person, no matter how scheming they are, cannot be compared with a person who has been familiar with these things since childhood—after all, sometimes strength determines success or failure, and with absolute strength, no one will waste effort on careful planning.

Therefore, Prince Chen was very keen to discover that His Majesty the Acting Pope, who came uninvited, looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was somewhat... urgent?What is the other party waiting for?Or rather, what are you looking forward to?Prince Chen chatted with him with a graceful manner on the surface, and he had gone through the process of this martial arts tournament celebration several times in his heart, and sorted out the information of the contestants, but he didn't find anything wrong.

——What needs to be reminded here is that after the addiction of participating in the competition, Ailu voluntarily gave up the subsequent competitions without Du Wei's request.She will inherit the Witch King of Daxue Mountain in the future, and she cannot stay in the Roland Empire as a knight.

As the final time approached, Prince Chen and Du Wei exchanged glances, then smiled at the acting pope beside him, "Your Majesty, the time is almost up, let us enjoy the competition." The acting pope nodded gently, Immediately, Prince Chen got up and announced the start of the game.

There was nothing wrong with the competition, round after round, although it was considered exciting in the eyes of ordinary people, but in terms of Du Wei's level of vision, it really made people feel sleepy after watching for a long time.Du Wei yawned a little, and then squinted at the acting pope. Seeing that the acting pope seemed to be watching the game with great interest, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he continued to feel sleepy.

After the competition finally decided the champion, bursts of cheers erupted in front of the Palace Square, successfully waking up the drowsy Du Wei who was nodding his head.Prince Chen couldn't help but glared at Du Wei, the latter's sleepy look was really eye-catching, Du Wei returned Prince Chen's innocent look.The two exchanged glances in front of many aristocratic officials in the empire and even the crowds of people in the square. The old prime minister Rob Schell sitting next to Du Wei had already turned his head away and couldn't bear to look at it. He said in a voice, "Your Majesty."

Only then did Prince Chen come to his senses, quickly adjusted his expression, nodded to the Acting Pope, and then stood up and moved forward. The attendant on the side had already followed up with a tray with the seal of the head of the "Roland's Sword Knights". According to the previously announced information, as the emperor of the empire, Prince Chen will personally hand over this seal to the champion of this tournament.

Du Wei was watching this scene from the stands. The champion was obviously very excited, but his expression was well restrained and he did not lose his appearance.He performed a standard chivalrous salute to Prince Chen who was approaching with a smile. Prince Chen stood at a distance of about three steps in front of him, and picked up the seal ribbon on a tray... No!Du Wei's whole body was startled suddenly. Long before his self-consciousness reacted, his body had already flew away from the stands at the fastest speed, rushed straight to Prince Chen, pulled him away and quickly protected him behind him, and immediately Back more than ten meters.

This series of actions add up to less than two seconds, and in such a short period of time, the excited champion, his eyes widened and his face was pale, a long sword pierced his back from his chest, he already dead.And behind him, at some point, a man in a black robe appeared, even his face was covered by a thick black hood. The man drew out his sword, and drops of blood on the snow-white and sharp long sword rolled onto the ground, causing the whole audience to There was a moment of silence.

Then it was the guards who reacted immediately. They rushed forward to protect Prince Chen firmly behind him, and at the same time they couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat. If Duke Tulip hadn't noticed something was wrong just now, he immediately came up to escort him. Maybe His Majesty is like that champion just now... Then they are definitely dead!

"Chen, are you okay?" The person who was most shocked was actually Du Wei. Just a little bit, Chen was about to be assassinated right under his nose. If he hadn't been keenly aware of the killing intent... Du Wei was frightened He was half dead, and he didn't realize that he called His Majesty the Emperor's name directly in the public, and the volume was not too low.

Prince Chen's arm was still tightly held by Du Wei. He patted Du Wei's hand comfortingly. He didn't care about Du Wei's verbal gaffe. He was very calm, and even smiled at Du Wei, saying, "Okay, my dear Duke Tulip, I'm fine, don't be so nervous."

Only then did Du Wei regain his composure, looked carefully at Prince Chen for a while before letting go, and walked a few steps forward, the surrounding guards moved out of the way - Du Wei is a well-known strong man in the empire, the one in front of him can Perhaps it would be more appropriate for the assassin who assassinated the champion of the tournament to be dealt with by Du Wei.After the man in black robe drew out his sword, he stood there motionless, as if he was watching Du Wei and Prince Chen's every move with cold eyes.

The closer Du Wei gets to this person, the more strange it feels, which is a sense of familiarity, but Du Wei certainly does not know such a person in his own memory. "Who is your Excellency?" Du Wei asked, and the guards surrounded the two of them in a circle, "Is this behavior dissatisfied with the celebration of this conference?"

The man in black actually smiled, his voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant, he said, "Dissatisfied? Of course there is. How can such a waste be qualified to be the head of Roland's Sword Knights?"

Prince Chen said, "Your Excellency's strength is undeniable." The fact that he can kill that champion without any effort is an ironclad proof. This person's strength is at least nine levels higher. "But your Excellency seems to be late." The implication It means that the martial arts competition is over, if you covet the position of regiment leader, it is meaningless to kill the champion now.

Prince Chen has always been a patient person, even though this person who seemed mysterious from the beginning to the end killed the champion of the martial arts competition in public, he still doesn't know if he has any plans to assassinate him, so he threw a slap in the face of the emperor like this Slap, the first thing Prince Chen thinks about is not revenge but comfort in disguise.In this world, the strong are respected, even if it is the supreme imperial power, without certain strength, it is meaningless in front of the real strong.

"It's too late?" The man in black giggled as if he had heard some big joke, and instead of answering Prince Chen's words, he locked his eyes on Du Wei and asked, "Have you not recognized me yet?" ?”

"...Are you the one who was with the Elf King and Philip?" The latest news Du Wei got before was that the three of them set off for the South China Sea, but that was almost two months ago, so guess what? It was difficult to guess who this person was. "Is the Elven King here too? Where is Philip?"

The man in black robe didn't answer Du Wei's question, but asked persistently, "Haven't you recognized me yet?"

The eyes of everyone present were all focused on Du Wei.He frowned, this person did give him a sense of familiarity, but Du Wei was sure that he didn't know who this person was, but the other party kept asking him again and again, should he really know who this person is?

The man in black smiled coldly, "I knew you wouldn't recognize him." He suddenly lifted his hood with his hand that didn't hold a sword, revealing his true face underneath.

It was a female face, young and beautiful, but the eyes were full of vicissitudes, the expression was cold and solemn, and the long hair was white.Anyone who sees her for the first time will not feel the softness of a woman, but a glamorous beauty. She is definitely a female warrior who has experienced battles, and no one will admit her unique temperament.

She slowly performed a knight salute with her sword in hand, and said, "The chief knight of the Saint Laurent Knights, the Messiah, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor." Her voice was no longer hoarse than before, but pleasant but cold, and the person she worshiped was not Chen. The prince, but Du Wei who looked at her with an unbelievable expression.

Du Wei was indeed shocked. He recognized the face of the Messiah. He once drew a sketch for him. He also saw it in the scattered memories belonging to Aragorn, but how could this be? Maybe!The Messiah is clearly... Du Wei couldn't control himself from turning his head to look at the stands. Today's celebration Vivienne and Qiao Qiao also came to participate, but they were magicians, so the seats were set at the side of the Magic Union. At this moment, they were staring at the center of the square with wide-eyed surprise.

And at the moment when Du Wei turned his head, Messiah drew his sword suddenly, and the snow-white long sword pierced Du Wei's heart. Du Wei only felt a sharp pain in his heart. It overlapped with the hateful face in Aragorn's memory... Du Wei was in a state of confusion, and he subconsciously held the blade of the long sword, his fingers were cut and blood was flowing, his lips moved, and he said like a sigh, "Mi Saiyan..."
