Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Not long after Lurien asked for forgiveness, he came to the palace again. King Bai had some bad premonitions in his heart, and after Lurien spoke, the premonition came true.

"King Bai, Wei Chen...Wei Chen discovered the traces of the God of Light, but..."

"But what?"

Lu Ruien frowned, and what he said next made Bai Wanggang's happy mood suddenly become heavy.

"But the power of the God of Light does not only exist in one person's body. Just like the riots that occurred in the previous trials, it spread among the residents."

"Didn't you take isolation measures immediately?"

King Bai sternly said that with the scale of the trial, it would not be a difficult problem if it could be solved after isolation, but Lurian secretly sighed.

"Please punish me, Your Majesty. I naively thought that the God of Light would launch a riot in the main city like before, so most of the troops were used to maintain security in the main city. But this time the source of the riot was , in Dirtmouth.”

"Dittmouth?"

"That's right, even though Wei Chen arrived immediately after verifying the news, it was still too late. Now the entire town of Ditmouth has almost been completely occupied, and now the crossroads are probably also affected. Wei Chen is really helpless. , had no choice but to come to seek help from the king."

After Lu Ruien finished speaking, the White King began to pace in place. You must know that the last time he was able to seal the radiation, he only relied on the pride of the ancient god to seize the opportunity. If he wants to use this method again now, I am afraid that he will have to do it again. To no avail, the cunning rabbit has three holes. She must be hiding in the dreams of many residents now, but trying to find her out is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

"I understand. Now you go back and continue to organize sentries. Do your best to protect other residents. Isolate if you can. I will first send some guards in the palace to help you."

"As ordered!"

After saying that, Lu Ruien turned around and left. He could see that King Bai was actually equally anxious after hearing the current situation, but the sky was falling and they, the 'tall men', had to hold on.

King Bai paced and sat down in front of the throne, his brows still furrowed. Although he had said the words, he still couldn't think of a way. If he wanted to find the God of Light in the vast sea of ​​people, it would take a lot of effort. Not to mention, we have to ensure that the God of Light will not transfer.

Or you can seduce her to take the initiative, otherwise everything will be empty talk.

Beep...beep...beep...

King Bai tapped his fingers on the armrest of the throne, closed his eyes and pondered. Since actively searching for her was not possible, the only way left was to lure her to appear.

But what can I do to seduce her?

After thinking hard for a long time, it is definitely not possible to take material things, so... I have to take hostages.

King Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of the race that lived in the Resting Land. Since they were believers of the God of Light before, they could be of some use. He did not believe that a god would care about his followers. ask.

"Somebody come!"

"exist!"

"Commander Zeruo is ordered to immediately lead fifty guards to Dirtmouth to assist the watchmen in carrying out isolation operations. It is extremely urgent!"

"As ordered!"

After hearing this, the retainers immediately hurried out, but King Bai made up his mind, and his body turned into dots of white light and disappeared on the throne.

In the martial arts training ground, many guards are still carrying out daily training. Although they are not full of enthusiasm, they are not slacking off at all, except for Ida.

After Mo Rong was executed, his spirit was hit and he had been in a trance. The guards around him could see it. The news that the relationship between the executed man and Ida was unusual was also spread among the guards. It was quietly circulated that good brothers were executed, and it would be uncomfortable for them, so no one wanted to get involved with this bad luck.

Ida was confused. He had always thought that his strength was far beyond that of ordinary people. But when Mo Rong was led to the execution platform and he could not move at all, the long-lost feeling of powerlessness clung to his body again.

He knew it was King Bai's fault, but so what? He himself is just a guard. If he risked his life to get a chance for Mo Rong, of course he would not hesitate, but he was facing King Bai.

Moreover, King Bai didn't pay all his attention to him at that time, but he still deprived him of all the power to act, and even opening his mouth was just an extravagant request.

He didn't know what to do. During these days in the martial arts training ground, even the dummies looked like Mo Rong. He always felt that the pool of black liquid on the execution platform was not Mo Rong. Mo Rong was definitely still alive, but thinking back The scene at that time seemed to be questioning why he stood idly by, maybe he should let it go, because Mo Rong shook his head while looking at him.

Does that mean you shouldn’t worry?

I am still very cowardly, otherwise why would I be sitting in the martial arts training ground feeling dejected?

Ida sat in the rest area of ​​the martial arts training ground, her eyes unfocused and motionless until Zeruo walked up to him.

"Ida, the king has an order that fifty guards are needed to carry out the mission. Come with me."

After the words fell, Ida still didn't move, still sitting there in a daze. Zeruo frowned, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, and shook him four or five times before he slowly came back to his senses.

"Huh?... Commander Ze Ruo? What's the matter?"

"The king has ordered me to organize guards to carry out tasks. You come with me."

"it's not good."

When Ida heard the words "White King", she subconsciously wanted to reject Zeruo, but her eyes shifted away from him and looked at the martial arts training field behind and the surrounding palace environment, and she changed her mind in an instant.

Maybe he should go for a walk and sort out his messed up thoughts. Anyway, he didn't want to stay in this depressing place anymore.

On the other side, the White King also arrived at his resting place.

"Guests outside, come in."

The prophet's senses were very keen. From the moment Bai Wang came to her door, she had already noticed this unusual aura.

King Bai pushed open the wooden door in front of him and walked straight in. Not long after, he saw the figure leaning over and sitting on the soft cushion.

"See Your Majesty."

The prophet saw clearly who was coming, stood up quickly, and bowed to salute.

King Bai looked up and down, and found that this prophet was much younger, but he didn't know if he had the skills of the previous prophet.

"Pingsheng, have the moth clan been well recently?"

"Thanks to the king's great love, the clan members are doing everything as usual, each performing their duties, and living a stable life."

"Well, although you are not the natives of my Hallownest, since you have submitted to Hallownest, you will be treated equally. If you have any difficulties, you must not hide them."

The prophet nodded, and then asked in a low voice: "The king is here this time, but is there anything you need me to wait for?"

The White King waved his hand, and the two figures disappeared from the prophet's room. When they reappeared, they had arrived at Dirtmouth.

"have a look."

......

Mo Rong stepped on the stone platform and jumped up. This area is similar to the place where the wailing stone sculptures are, but different, because there are no piles of masks under the lighthouse, but the difference is that like the piles of masks, they are floating here. With many container souls.
