I Will Be The Crowned King

Mrs. Camille stood outside the door, holding a silver candlestick in her hand, and the dim light of the fire cast a throbbing shadow on her smiling cheek.

An Sen's neck froze, and a surprised look flashed from the corner of his eyes.

Counting the first four corpses, this should be the fourth time... The other party was already separated by a wall, but he didn't notice it, even when he opened the door, he "saw" the other party's figure before he noticed the abnormality.

He glanced at Phil Cressey by his side, and found that the other party's face was stiff, and he was stunned in place.

Obviously, this "loyal and reliable" ally has been completely obsolete.

The lady in the corridor didn't seem to notice anything unusual, and still stood silently in the same place, waiting for the two to reply.

"We're looking for... Sophia (Lisa), my sister." Anson had to give the excuse he had prepared at the beginning:

"At this time, she has already gone to bed at ordinary times, but she still hasn't seen the child come back... I was worried that she would cause trouble for everyone, so I wanted to go out with Lord Draco (Fair) to find it."

"Oh I got it."

Mrs. Camille suddenly realized, with a graceful smile on her beautiful cheeks: "Please don't worry too much, Miss Sophia (Lisa) should be in Lulu's room on the top floor... It's easy to forget the time when the two little girls meet for the first time."

So the largest room on the top floor is actually the little daughter's bedroom... An Sen's heart moved, and he frowned slightly: "I'm really sorry for delaying your family's rest."

"In this case, please wait here with Lord Draco (Fair), and I will call Sophia (Lisa) back, and I will definitely criticize her severely!"

After all, before the stiff-faced Phil Cressy could recover, Anson, who had a serious expression, left the room alone and walked quickly towards the stairs.

Just as he was about to walk up the stairs, Mrs. Camille, who was behind him, suddenly stopped him:

"Wait, wait a minute!"

The sharp shout made Anson's left foot stop in the middle of the stairs.

In the last second, she was generous, and the graceful and luxurious Mrs. Camille suddenly became panicked. She stared nervously at the left foot that had not yet fallen, and her pupils shrank slightly trembling.

Anson turned his head and deliberately showed a confused expression:

"what?"

"No, nothing!"

Slightly restraining her gaffe, Mrs. Camille, who was holding the silver candlestick, forced a smile on her terrified face, and said without turning her eyes: "Just, it's better... or don't bother them!"

"It's just two little girls who like to play. There's nothing to worry about, right?!"

Excited and sharp voices echoed throughout the mansion without a single pause.

Looking at the lady who suddenly became hysterical, Anson, who still maintained a confused expression, turned his eyes and exchanged glances quickly with Phil, who pretended to be shocked.

Just when Mrs. Camille wanted to continue to say something, another figure appeared in the corridor:

"Mother, Lord Ludwig and Lord Draco...what are you doing?"

Standing in front of the door of her room, Nora frowned slightly, looking at the three of them and said solemnly.

"Oh, it's just that Your Excellency Ludwig (Anson) is going to pick up Miss Sophia (Lisa) on the third floor. I just want to persuade him."

Without waiting for Anson and Phil to speak, Mrs. Camille instantly regained her original graceful demeanor, without showing any abnormality:

"Miss Sophia (Lisa) and Lulu get along very well. It's rare for her to meet friends of the same age, and it's nothing to play late..."

"Mother, this is your fault." Before she could finish speaking, Nora grabbed:

"Miss Sophia (Lisa) is the sister of Your Excellency Ludwig (Anson). It is normal and reasonable to worry about her blood relatives. It would be rude for you to stop me!"

"But, but..."

"No but!"

Nora interrupted her mother rudely again, her tone still cold: "They are guests, and if they are guests, they must meet each other's requirements as much as possible. This is polite!"

Mrs. Camille, who was reprimanded by her son, looked flustered and did not refute at all, but her eyes still did not leave Anson's left foot.

"Of course, the playful nature of little girls is inevitable, and rash interference can easily arouse their rebellious psychology." Nora suddenly changed the conversation and looked at Anson with a gentle expression:

"It's better - wait another 30 minutes, I'll bring them a glass of juice, and they won't be particularly stubborn when they're tired."

"So please go back to the house to rest first. I promise that until tomorrow morning, the lovely Miss Sophia (Lisa) will lie quietly on the bed, waiting for the sun to wake up from her sleep... What do you think?"

When the words fell, Anson found that it was not only Nora, but also Mrs. Camille, who was watching him nervously.

Even, not just them...

"It's so late, why haven't the two of you gone to bed yet?"

Baker's voice came from the other end of the corridor, the lord's face was a little gloomy, and the wrinkles around his eyes seemed to be buried in the anger of being disturbed his sleep: "Didn't you make an appointment to discuss the covenant tomorrow morning?"

"Father."

"master."

With the appearance of Jian Lang's figure, Nora and Mrs. Camille in the corridor turned around and saluted, but did not leave the place.

After one left and one right, the three members of the Baker family surrounded Anson firmly in front of the stairs, watching his every move.

In the silent corridor, An Sen suddenly seemed to have discovered something.

Mrs. Camille, Nora or Baker... three people, all in formal suits with their coats and hats off.

In other words, from returning to the mansion to eating and finally returning to their respective rooms, they did not change any clothes.

I didn't notice anything unusual about Mrs. Camille just now. Besides being surprised, it was probably because I and Phil were also wearing the same attire when they entered the door; but I was a guest, and it was indeed for ulterior motives that I didn't change my clothes.

The pocket watch has completely failed, but according to the previous countdown and the moonlight outside the window, it can be roughly estimated that it is at least twelve o'clock, or even close to one at the latest.

In the middle of the morning, the whole family is dressed neatly and ready to go out at any time?

Also...why are they so afraid to go to Lulu Baker's room on the third floor by themselves?

Facing the three pairs of eyes with different expressions but the same purpose, An Sen was still confused, and his left foot, which was parked in mid-air, never fell.

In fact, it is more accurate to be four pairs... Phil Crecy, who had smiled until his face was stiff, was already extremely nervous at this moment, and he was frantically motioning Anson to step back with cold sweat constantly pouring out of his temples.

The unblinking eyes are like typewriters, and the flutter and contraction of the pupils alone convey at least 20,000 words of information - including but not limited to low-pitched pleas and personal slurs of a certain commander-in-chief. .

Is there anything, something that can immediately distract everyone, otherwise... Phil Crecy's eyes searched quickly, frantically looking for a chance to survive.

Suddenly, a certain dazzling light suddenly shone into the pupils that suddenly contracted.

"Look, what is that?!"

I don't know when Fei rushed back to the house, pointing to the night sky outside the window and exclaiming to everyone in the corridor: "Meteor! Come and see, there is a meteor!"

But both Nora and Mrs. Camille were still standing there, staring at Anson's figure, not even looking back.

In the quiet mansion, Phil, who was pointing out the window behind him, could only hear the echo of his own voice. He stopped in embarrassment and even forgot to wipe the cold sweat from his face.

"Um?"

Just when the atmosphere was suppressed to the extreme, Baker was the first to show a stunned expression, walking across the corridor and towards the balcony of the guest room.

Seeing this, Anson also walked down the stairs, followed by back to the guest room; Camille and Nora immediately showed curious expressions, and left the corridor back and forth.

With the help of the shimmering light of the candlestick in Mrs. Camille's hand, several people looked towards the starry sky in the direction that Fair pointed to; they did see a golden-red light streaking across the dome, and it was getting brighter and brighter.

No, not right.

Anson glanced at Phil, who was panicking beside him... It wasn't a meteor, it was clearly...

"Enemy attack!"

The suddenly serious Baker blurted out: "It was an attack by an intruder, we were exposed!"

Mrs. Camille's face immediately showed a nervous look, and Nora, who was on the side, immediately turned her attention to Anson and Phil, making the latter tense her heartstrings again.

Just when Fair thought that the other party was going to do something to his group, Baker stopped Nora who wanted to come forward, and looked at his eldest son with a solemn look: "Go to the third floor immediately to protect your sister and tell her to come. Time to sleep."

"Okay, I'll go right now!"

Nora replied immediately, not forgetting to look deeply at Anson and Phil before leaving.

Baker turned around again and held the candlestick in Camille's hand: "Madam, please go to the prayer room downstairs to pray, and I implore the gospel of the three true gods to continue to bless us and be able to survive all disasters."

Mrs. Camille did not speak, she left the room shivering with the candlestick in her hand, and her lips were still wriggling slightly as she walked down the stairs, as if she was praying something.

After arranging the family, Baker finally turned his attention to the two: "As for the distinguished guests... Please stay in the room until I solve the disaster caused by the intruders, so as not to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings."

"As for the discussion of the covenant, I will naturally give you a proper answer tomorrow."

The two naturally agreed, and nodded quickly to indicate that they would never leave.

Baker immediately showed a gentle smile, stroked his chest and saluted; then turned and walked out of the room, not forgetting to close the door when he left.

"boom!"

With the heavy closing of the door, Anson and Phil were "driven" back before they left the room, and there was no suitable reason to leave for the time being.

The first "going out reconnaissance" plan was officially declared bankrupt.

………………

"Respected commander-in-chief, can I ask what you wanted to do just now?"

In the pitch-dark guest room, Phil Cressy, who had his back to the door, finally removed the disguise he had just panicked, and smiled slightly dissatisfied.

Anson glanced at him, and walked to the balcony to look out into the countryside; as the golden-red meteor in the sky became more and more conspicuous, more and more villagers in the town noticed the abnormality, but there was no panic.

It's even a bit inaccurate to say that, because these natives and colonists just walked out of the farmhouse, looked up at the sky, and...and gone.

Screaming, kneeling in prayer, rushing to escape, asking for help everywhere, none of these, really just looking up at the starry sky, as if the shining "meteor" in the sky has nothing to do with them.

Is it because of absolute certainty, or... An Sen narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Even if you don't say it, I understand what you want to do." Phil snorted softly:

"You discovered the abnormality of the Baker family, and hoped to use this as a breakthrough to expose them; but this is too dangerous. What should we do if the angry Baker is not only himself?!"

"Those natives, and obviously abnormal colonists... Even in the worst case, it can be inferred that if any member of the Baker family is a parasite of the 'Evil God's Egg', we will have a problem even leaving alive!"

"Fortunately, you don't seem to have forgotten to arrange reinforcements."

Fel paused, stared at the big fireball that was about to fall in the sky and said to himself: "Although it may arouse the vigilance and suspicion of the other party, it is at least a means of testing the enemy."

"Reinforcement?"

An Sen, who was always silent, turned his head and said slightly in surprise: "Shouldn't this be arranged by you?"

"The people I arranged have already been wiped out - it's not like you didn't see it." Phil shrugged:

"To be honest, if this fireball hadn't appeared timely enough and just happened to be discovered by me, I'm afraid we just..."

The voice stopped abruptly.

"So..." Phil, whose expression froze, twitched his throat:

"It's not you?"

Anson shook his head and couldn't help but raised his eyebrows:

"Also... not you?"

Phil nodded quickly.

In the silent air, the two who looked at each other tacitly looked at the huge fireball that had fallen from the sky and rushed towards the settlement outside the window.

The ever-closer light has replaced the moon and has become the most dazzling existence in the night sky - even with the naked eye, it is not difficult to see that once it really lands, it will be enough to wipe out the entire settlement!

Just then, Anson spotted Baker in the crowd in the settlement outside the window.

Standing in the center of the crowd~www.readwn.com~, he stretched out the index finger of his right hand toward the huge fireball that was falling from the sky, and shouted in a smooth voice like water:

"Thanks to the protection of the Three Old Gods, you... should not exist!"

Even though they were far apart, the two of them could still hear Baker's words clearly.

In an instant, the fireball that fell from the sky and was about to hit the settlement disappeared so silently...disappeared.

Not being cancelled out, not destroyed, not even swallowed up or erased a little bit, but vanished.

It just disappeared.

Anson's eyes widened in disbelief.

The clear moonlight shrouded the entire forest again, and the settlement that was originally crowded with people returned to calm. The villagers returned to the farmhouse one after another, leaving Baker alone.

In the silent night, nothing happened.
