Hollow Knight: Hallownest

The shelter was built by King Bai for Nois, and of course it was at her request. After all, he was also responsible for Nois being in this state.

"Your Majesty, I can no longer assume the position of leader. Your Majesty can agree to my unreasonable request. I am very grateful. If Hallownest still needs a place where I can devote my whole life to Hallownest in the future, Your Majesty only needs to issue an order. , Even if I risk my life, I will not hesitate for a moment."

"Commander Nuo, you have contributed to Hallownest and you are still able to assume the position of leader. Now you have dedicated your eyes to Hallownest. I owe you the shelter."

After hearing this, Noisi quickly shook his head, his expression even frightened. He was about to speak but was interrupted by King Bai.

"Of course there is no need to say anything else. Let's take some servants with us, so that we can help you with the chores of the shelter."

Nois said nothing more and remained silent for a long time. Then he leaned down and kowtowed to King Bai before standing up and leaving.

King Bai looked at her leaving back with complicated eyes.

He didn't expect that the changes in the abyss would cause such a big commotion, and he didn't expect that even that person would take a hand. But fortunately, everything has calmed down now and he can rest for a while.

"Calling all the ministers to come to the main hall, there is something important to announce."

A trace of imperceptible fatigue flashed in King Bai's eyes. After hearing this, the retainer leaned over to leave and passed on the news.

The next step is to announce the queen's overseas stay.

......

"Killed, killed Master Somas!"

After the guard's words fell, the atmosphere in the main hall, which was originally dull due to the Queen's absence, was now more like a muddy swamp, drowning everyone in it. Even though some people wanted to raise their heads to take a breath of fresh air, they did not dare to lift their heads. For half a minute, I was afraid of seeing the king's gloomy face.

"You mean, Soumas was killed?"

"Yes, it is."

The ground under the guard's knees slowly cracked in its center. He gritted his teeth and supported his body with both hands, trying not to be frightened by the king's terrifying momentum and collapse. These few breaths felt like a long time passed to him. , his hands were shaking more and more, and just when he was about to lose his support, his shoulders suddenly lightened up, and everything returned to normal.

"Where is Lurian? Where is he?"

King Bai's words became indifferent again, but anger could still be heard in them, like thunder hidden in the dark clouds, which made people fearful.

"Report to the king! The Lord Watcher is waiting for the king's summons at the gate of the palace."

"Why don't you come in and meet the king in person?"

"Lord Watcher, he said... that he was too shameless to step into the palace. He came here because of guilt. I hope the king will decide."

"Let him in."

"As ordered!"

After the guards left, the atmosphere in the main hall finally became less heavy. Everyone dared to look up at the figure sitting high on the throne, but no one dared to make any sound. Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps outside the main hall. , their heartbeats had just calmed down, and now they seemed to be suppressed by the footsteps and became slower.

Lu Ruien was in front, and Mo Rong was behind. As for the guard, he had disappeared. Probably because he didn't want to experience the feeling just now, he ran elsewhere.

Without seeing King Bai's greeting, Lurian knelt straight down with a thud. The sound startled everyone in the main hall. They all looked at the floor under Lurian's knees and took a deep breath.

I saw that the sunken pit was even denser than the one under the guard's knees before. The cracked ground seams were soaked in dazzling red, like a large red net spread over the soles of Lurian's feet.

As a watcher of Lurien, there is no need to pay such a courtesy when meeting the White King, but with his current appearance, even a fool would know the reason why he did this.

"Lu Aiqing, what the guard said to me just now was not a joke you came to the palace to make, right?"

"I don't believe that someone can kill someone under your nose."

Although there was some smile hidden in King Bai's words, no one dared to agree. Although everyone still lowered their heads towards King Bai, they could all look at Lu Ruien in the center of the main hall, and by the way, they also looked at the person standing behind him. of curiosity.

"Lu Aiqing, I have always known that you have a problem with the soul master. To do something so rude as to make fun of other people's lives is not like your style."

Lurian did not reply to the White King's words immediately. Instead, he raised his head slightly, then leaned down suddenly and hit the ground heavily. Blood flowed from his forehead, forming tiny drops of blood together with the blood under his knees. Tan'.

King Bai took a deep breath, slowly stood up from the throne, walked down the steps, and walked to Lurian's side.

"Lurien, do you dare not even answer my words now?!"

"say!"

The white king's shout was like thunder that had been stored in the black clouds for a long time. It exploded next to Lu Ruien, but his kneeling movements remained unchanged, but he finally opened his mouth. Mouth.

"The soul master is dead, and I know I have failed in my duty. I have no face to see the king! How can I open my mouth!"

"I came here not only to hand over the culprit to the king, but also to beg for punishment from the king!"

Lurian's voice was very loud, mixed with King Bai's shout, and echoed in everyone's ears.

King Bai waved his hand to the side, and everyone quickly understood what he meant. They all walked out neatly and with a little haste, and soon there were only three people left in the main hall.

"look up."

After the words fell, Lu Ruien raised his face, which was still bleeding, and looked straight at the empty throne. His appearance was instantly terrifying. "

"Lurien, you have served me as long as Hallownest has been standing, so I understand your temperament."

"You are not the kind of person who neglects his duties, so there must be another reason for this."

"You should know my temper all too well. Even if you kneel down and break the floor of the main hall, I will not forgive you if you cannot explain the cause and effect."

"Get up, I want to know what happened."

King Bai moved his gaze away from Lu Ruien and looked at Mo Rong standing behind him, his eyes narrowed.

If he remembered it well, the two of them had met during the riot in the trial, and this person seemed to be the champion captain of the trial?

Lurian didn't say much, because he only rushed to the scene when he smelled the breath of the God of Light, and King Bai was obviously stunned when he heard these words.

"What did you say?!"

"Have you felt the breath of the God of Light in the Soul Sanctuary?"

King Bai's tone was obviously a little more impatient, and Lurian's nodding action gave him a rare hint of panic.

Then the two of them saw King Bai quickly sitting back on the throne, his eyes suddenly glowing with white light.

At the same time, King Bai, who appeared in the dream world, looked inside the seal, his hair stood on his head, and his eyes trembled!

Although the seal barrier flashing with white light was still intact, the figure within it seemed to have disappeared, leaving only a ball of orange light shining in it.

The golden cicada escapes from its shell!
