Time travel starts from Doupa

Chapter 1249 Holy Death!The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows behind!

On the long street, there was already a river of blood.

The sticky blood made the ground within a radius of tens of miles extremely smooth, and ordinary people would easily fall when stepping on it. The blood overflowing from the wounds of the corpses slowly flowed into the pits around the road from high to low. in holes, ditches and wells.

As for the assassins who originally jumped out to assassinate the emperor, although they were large in number, numbering three to four thousand, they made the Knights of Thorns and the palace warriors pay a bloody price, causing endless chaos.

However, this is the imperial capital after all, the headquarters of the Dawn Empire. After the chaos and assassination, the Thornflower Knights and court warriors quickly organized a counterattack.

Not only that, from the gate of the palace, which is only a few miles away, hundreds of strong and stubborn Thorn Flower Cavalry rushed out at this time. They were almost the last elite of the Thorn Flower Knights staying in the palace; Teams of court warriors in golden armor also rushed out of the palace, heading towards the long street where the emperor was assassinated.

In the outer area of ​​the imperial capital, thousands of city patrolling soldiers belonging to the city guard army also gathered from all over the city after learning that the emperor had been assassinated, and quickly gained the upper hand with their numerical advantage.

Those assassins were gradually losing ground. Even if they numbered 4000 to [-], including many strong men, they could not withstand the stranglehold of the regular imperial troops. Several assassins who had even reached the rank of Grand Knight were also besieged by the Thorn Flower Knights. To pieces!
And the final collapse of the assassins came very quickly.The last straw that crushes them is the magician!

The Chenxi royal family has been inherited for thousands of years, and its heritage is extremely profound. Naturally, the royal family also has the inheritance of magicians, and that is the always mysterious court magician.

These court magicians were established in the founding era of the Dawn Empire thousands of years ago. They have been passed down from generation to generation relying on esoteric magic for thousands of years. Although there are not many people, only five or six hundred, almost every one of them has a third-level senior magician or above. Strength!

On weekdays, court magicians generally live in seclusion in the magic hall of the imperial palace. They only serve the royal family and don't even care about the magic guild. They can almost be said to be one of the most important trump cards of the royal family.

Therefore, when hundreds of court magicians floated out of the palace and descended on the long street, the assassins finally collapsed...

Even though there were paladins, holy magisters, and thousands of people participating in this assassination, the series of magic spells that the court magician called on the assassins was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely defeating them !
Countless assassins began to flee in all directions, and even the giant bald man who jumped out at the very beginning, cultivated the crimson grudge, and wanted to avenge their legion leader Reinhardt, saw that there was nothing he could do, and was ready to run for his life first.

I saw the bloody giant ax in his hand swinging wildly, and the fighting spirit of the great knight level was poured into it, allowing him to easily cut a bloody path, and it could be said that the place he passed was littered with corpses!

A whole team of 50 Thorn Flower Knights was overwhelmed by him. Naturally, those slightly inferior golden armored warriors could not stop him. Even the slowing and binding magic released by several court magicians were easily blocked by this person. He collapsed and hid towards the crowded place.

Similar to the situation of the bald giant, there were also the eight great knights who rushed to the emperor's side just now.These big knights also obviously realized that something was wrong, and one by one hurriedly pushed back the besieging imperial army, trying to get away.

However, they were not as fast as the bald giant. Of the eight knights, only three managed to escape to the periphery of the battlefield.

As for the remaining five great knights, they were naturally surrounded.

"Kill all these traitors!!"

A thorn flower knight whose strength reached the level of a great knight let out a roar, and immediately rushed over. Behind him, thousands of imperial soldiers immediately overwhelmed the five great knight assassins...

At the same time, in the center of the battlefield, the battle between Starry Sky Sword Saint Anakin and Guanlan Sword Saint Sith has come to an end.

Anakin stood tall with his hands behind his back, while Sith in front of him couldn't even stand up.

Because, Sith's body has begun to disappear!This is the price paid by a saint-level powerhouse for forcibly borrowing the power of the domain! !

"Anakin, return your teacher's sword to you!!"

Sith said with a wry smile, the Wuju Sword in his hand was stuck on the ground alone, and his own body began to dissipate.

First his limbs, then his torso, all turned into light dust and began to disperse.In the end, the figure of Sith... completely disappeared from this world, as if he had never existed! !

Guanlan Sword Saint Sith has fallen! !

And at the first moment of Sith's fall, all the powerhouses above the holy rank in the entire imperial capital were touched at the same time.

For example, the Necromancer Saint Magister who was confronting Alice, member of the Shadow Council Antonidas.

"I didn't expect Sith's fortune to be so bad..."

Antonidas glanced at the situation around him, his eyes finally fell on Alice and the Sword Master of the Starry Sky who had freed his hands, shook his head, and murmured: "As expected of the Dawn Empire that lasted for thousands of years, such a large formation A battle of assassinations can reverse the situation.”

"Senior Antonidas, your words are too much. I suggest you leave immediately. On behalf of the royal family, I will not pursue any charges against you." Alice looked at the black-robed old man in front of her and said calmly.

For the strong people above the holy rank, they should not offend them if they can, and persuade them to leave if they can, especially for research talents like Antonidas who hide in the magic tower all day long, there is no need to fight to the death.

Only guys like Sith who interfered too much in the world and had a deep hatred with Anakin would be killed.

Of course, the reason why Alice dared to pardon Antonidas on behalf of the royal family was because she had just sent a message to the emperor on the side and obtained the emperor's consent before speaking out.

However, facing such a lenient condition proposed by Alice, Antonidas shook his head and said with a joking smile: "Miss Alice, you are a little too impatient. The main course hasn't been served yet, how can you drive me away?" Where is this guest going?"

"what?"

As soon as Antonidas said this, Alice, the emperor and others were suddenly shocked. Is there something else going on?

Only Helen looked calm. She raised her pretty head and looked at the northwest corner of the imperial capital.

If this assassination has nothing to do with the temple, it is definitely impossible.The question is whether the temple is willing to do it yourself if the external forces fail!

"Temple, how long can you endure it?!!"

Helen thought to herself.Immediately, she glanced lightly, looked at the motionless carriage not far away, and felt quite settled.

With Master Chen here, so what if the gods come down to earth?The reason why Mr. Chen didn't take action just now was because he was fishing for law enforcement and to lure out the gang of masterminds...

……

At the same time, on the east side of the imperial capital, Queens District.

This is the land of wealth in the imperial capital.It is also a place where the rich and powerful gather.More than 60 years ago, this was the most noble area in the entire imperial capital, because almost all the old nobles in the imperial capital, especially those with large fiefdoms, lived here.

But it was in that calamity year more than 60 years ago, many veteran nobles with large fiefdoms abandoned the royal family, or betrayed the royal family, and turned to the temple instead.

In order to lick the temple, these old nobles allowed it to build sanctuaries, set up tax collection agencies, and even station the Knights Templar in their own fiefdoms. It can be said that they completely sold the sovereignty of the empire.

But as the saying goes, misfortune relies on blessings, and blessings lie on misfortunes. These veteran nobles thought they were smart, but they completely made the royal family hate them.

After the year of disaster passed and Helen's grandfather, the Iron Blood Emperor, ascended the throne, he dismissed many old nobles who held imperial official positions, and replaced them with royalists who were willing to support the royal family, or new nobles.

And since then, the Queens District, where old nobles gather, has declined year by year, while the Ruhr District, where new nobles gather, has become the most noble district today.

At this moment, the huge streets of Queens District were deserted, except for occasional expensive and luxurious carriages, surrounded by guards, driving into a manor in Queens District.

The scenery of this manor looks extremely beautiful, but if you feel it carefully, you will be able to detect a bit of chill hidden in the manor.

This manor is the private property of Prince Oberyn. It is said that 20 gold coins were spent on decoration alone. The construction of the castle in the manor can be described as majestic and magnificent.

Today, a secret meeting between established nobles was held here.

In the castle at this time, a large group of guests were divided into three groups to communicate and talk.

A group of men and horses is a group of officers, each of them is wearing a military uniform, or a full-body armor, a cloak, and a long sword hanging around their waists, with extraordinary momentum.

The other group of people looked like old-fashioned nobles, all of them were gray-haired and very well-bred.

The last group of people were of different ages and seemed to be a mess, but their clothes were all embroidered with patterns of thorns and flowers.

In the Dawn Empire, only the blood of the royal family or distant relatives of the royal family are eligible to wear clothes embroidered with "thorn flowers".

The three groups were clearly distinct and close to each other. Especially when Prince Oberyn arrived, they seemed to be headed by the prince.

But for some unknown reason, in today’s event called the Masquerade, the nobles neither wore makeup nor danced, and not many even raised their glasses to drink with others.

Everyone, including Prince Oberyn, who seems to have a somewhat out-of-touch personality, seems to be seriously waiting for some news...

At this moment, the gate of the castle was suddenly pushed open, and a young figure ran in hastily, panting and staggering because of running too fast, even ignoring the etiquette of the nobles.

This young man was obviously also a nobleman, with shining blond hair, lake green eyes and his pattern embroidered with thorns, all of which showed his status - a relative of the royal family.

At this time, he was out of breath, and he drank half a glass of ordinary red wine to calm down, and then he exclaimed:

"The Sith Lord has fallen and the assassination failed!!"

As soon as this remark came out, the first reaction in the hearts of many nobles in the hall was: "This time it's over!"

If such a large-scale assassination operation failed, a large number of assassins who knew the inside story must be captured. At that time, after a little torture, or the identification and guidance of a magician, the emperor would be able to find them, the real culprits.

By that time, these old aristocratic forces who were already in decline and were regarded as thorns in the flesh by the emperor, I am afraid they will be wiped out and the whole clan will be wiped out!

Even, the emperor didn't need to torture those assassins to get information, he could lock them as the mastermind behind the scenes.

The reason lies in this Lord Sith, the Sword Saint of Mission Hills who was just killed!
This Lord Sith had already been the guest of Prince Oberyn's mansion more than ten years ago, and now that Sith openly appeared at the assassination scene, the fate of Prince Oberyn was already doomed.

Maybe, the Knights of Thorns and Flowers are already on their way to arrest Prince Oberyn.

And once Prince Oberyn falls, everyone present will probably have their homes confiscated and their families exterminated! !

Thinking about the tragic fate in the future, everyone focused their attention on Prince Oberyn.

At this time, Prince Oberyn was holding a glass of wine with a positive face, and had a happy conversation with a female nobleman, as if he hadn't heard the news at all.

However, Prince Oberyn's performance unexpectedly calmed down the panicked mood of the nobles present.After all, Prince Oberyn has always been resourceful, and since he is so calm, there must be another trick.

Sure enough, after a while, Oberyn dismissed the female nobleman, put down his wine glass, looked at the people present, and said slowly: "The assassination failed, Sith is dead, and we have no way out. I don't know if you would like to Live and die with this king?"

"It's natural."

"Your Highness, just give orders, my Stuart family will only follow your lead!"

"Your Highness is right, we have no way out, we can only fight hard!"

"..."

The veteran nobles present expressed their willingness to live and die with Oberyn, and the atmosphere at the scene was so intense that it made people excited.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost stirring, Oberyn struck while the iron was hot and loudly ordered: "Please return to the mansion immediately and summon all the masters, private soldiers, and even servants of the family. We have hundreds of hereditary nobles, even if one family can only raise 100. People can at least gather tens of thousands of people, and the strength of tens of thousands of people is enough to attack the imperial city!"

After a pause, Oberyn looked at the group of officers in bright armor in the hall again, and said: "Please go outside the city immediately and take over the Royal Guards that have been infiltrated by us for decades. With the Royal Guards and us cooperating internally and externally, we don't have to worry about the big plan failing!"

"Furthermore, this king will personally go to the temple and persuade the temple to send troops to help, especially the strong ones to help!!"

Speaking of this, Prince Oberyn suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist, held it up high, and then slammed it down, shouting: "Everyone, success or failure depends on one move, action, today must cut off the dog's head of Odysseus!! "
