Chapter 192
When Fei Ya and his team returned to the temple and prepared to unite all the Knights of Light players to resist the werewolf invasion, they ran into the Red Heart King and his men at the door of the temple.
Among them, headed by the Red Heart King Minghuang, all wore platinum armor, holding the Holy Sword of Light, and looked ready for battle.
Fei Ya was stunned for a moment. He never expected that the King of Hearts would listen to him so much and actually want to cooperate with him.
However, before he could speak, the Emperor smiled at him:
"Don't get me wrong, dear. We are not here to greet you. We are here to fulfill your wish for us."
After the Red Heart King finished speaking, all the members of the Chi Que team took three steps to both sides, revealing the other group standing behind them.
Fei Ya had no idea what was going on and looked blankly at Plum Blossom King, who was standing not far away.
"Night King? How could you..."
Plum Blossom King raised his middle finger to his lips, blinked at Fei Ya, and sighed:
"Sorry, old friend, I think our friendship is about to expire."
When Fei Ya heard this, his heart skipped a beat and his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
"You want to kill me? Doesn't the treacherous Night King intend to give me a reason?!"
The Night King raised his eyebrows and said with a look of alms:
"Fei Ya, this is a game between throne players. You are destined to be a victim."
"Because... you will never be able to compare to the King of Spades, not to mention that he now has a spouse who is a player of the throne."
The Night King's eyes were particularly cold and ruthless when he said this, and he did not hide the contempt in his tone.
"Fei Ya, you are no longer of any value to me."
The man's humiliating words one after another completely enraged Fei Ya. He shouted at him without hesitation:
"Jin Zirui, you deserve to die!"
The Night King just smiled, then raised his hand and said coldly:
"Kill him."
At his command, the evil woman Bailie and others standing behind him quickly took action.
Red Heart King Minghuang looked at the pillar beside him that was splattered with blood, rubbed it with his fingertips, and smiled with the corners of his lips raised.
"It's actually quite interesting to watch dogs fight each other, isn't it?"
Xiao Feng did not respond to his words, but within the circle with a radius of five meters centered on him, the Lost Spring Flower was brought to its fullest potential.
Although they did not move at all, anyone could see that this was a restricted area that could not be entered.
The Emperor Minghuang's vigilance towards the Plum Blossom King was clearly displayed in public.
Seeing the members of the Black Crow Team falling to the ground one after another until all of them were eliminated, the Night King wiped his blood-stained cheek and grinned at the Ming Emperor not far away.
Emperor Ming watched him approaching step by step, and even entered Xiao Feng's territory.
The loss of youth had a profound effect on his body. After the Night King's face and skin aged and withered visibly, they repaired themselves and were reborn at an incredible speed.
The effect brought by the immortal body is so great that any destructive props are helpless, even Xiao Feng's lost spring flowers.
The Emperor Ming looked calm, but in his hand behind his back he was tightly holding a card that would be used to weaken the Night King.
"Jin Zirui, are you sure you want to fight me at this time?"
Hearing this, the Night King paused and stopped.
"Do you think I'm really afraid of the Queen of Hearts?" The Night King laughed. "So what if you all join forces?"
The man said nonchalantly, "It's a pity this isn't a card game. I can't die here."
The Red Heart King Ming Huang looked at him, frowned, and suddenly said:
"Yes, you will not die on this day, but any day in the future."
"Jin Zirui, you will reap what you sow. All the debts you owed in the past...must be repaid."
The Night King didn't believe it and smiled casually:
"How many times have you said this? I'm still standing here."
"Instead of waiting for karma to punish me, you might as well pray that the Easter egg game will be effective sooner rather than later."
The Emperor Ming's face turned cold and he stopped talking. Only then did the Night King show a satisfied expression.
At this moment, an extremely cold voice suddenly sounded behind everyone.
"Really?"
The Night King turned around suddenly and saw a thin figure appear at the door of the palace, followed by Shen Yueshu and others.
Yitu held the rose bayonet in his hand, raised the corners of his lips, and gave him an ambiguous smile.
"Come."
"Let's settle... this debt!"
The next second after Yi Tu finished speaking, he rushed towards him at an incredible speed.
The Night King was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he was knocked to the ground by the oncoming wind.
"Zi Rui!" The evil woman Bai Lie exclaimed, and just as she was about to go forward, she was blocked by Hua San.
"Let's compete again." Huasan raised his eyebrows.
The evil lady Bailie immediately roared:
"Get out of here!"
The two figures suddenly entangled and fought with each other. In just a few breaths, they had fought dozens of times. For a moment, it was impossible to tell who was stronger.
At this moment, the night wanderer's scream suddenly sounded in the hall.
"How is it possible! The Night King!"
The evil woman Bai Lie was distracted by the voice and subconsciously looked in the direction of the Night King. The next second, she was knocked to the ground by the flower umbrella.
“How is it possible…”
The evil woman Bai Lie watched the Night King's body disappear bit by bit in front of her eyes, her lips trembling with shock.
After the Night King completely disappeared, only the Queen of Hearts was left standing there alone, still holding the rose bayonet in her hand.
The only difference from the beginning was that the Queen of Hearts was not holding the handle of the knife, but the extremely sharp, thorny blade.
Blood dripped from the white wrist onto the smooth marble floor tiles, while a bright red rose bloomed in the palm of the man's hand.
The King of Hearts naturally saw this scene as well, and couldn't help but frown and mutter:
“How could it be so fast…”
At the same time, the entire viewing area was in a frenzy.
They had no idea how the Night King died. The two of them were clearly talking just now, although their voices were not clear.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the Night King's face changed, and he fell to his knees on the ground, and then the scene just now happened.
Even Shen Yueshu and the others were a little confused about the situation.
They knew Yitu had the ability to kill the Night King, but the time was so short that it might go too smoothly.
Yi Tu, who killed the Night King with his own hands, also lowered his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
The hall was silent for a while before Yitu turned around and waved to the members of the Cold Palace. Then he looked at the Emperor Ming and said:
"The rest is up to you."
The King of Hearts glanced at the leaderless curious members and smiled:
"My pleasure."
——————
Relying on the werewolf's developed sense of smell, Jiang Hanyu found his depressed spouse by a stream outside the city of Seine.
"Hey, whose beautiful daughter-in-law is this who got lost?"
The man took advantage of her inattention and hugged her in his arms. He lowered his head and kissed the ends of Yi Tu's hair, and asked gently:
"What's wrong, baby? Didn't you eliminate the Night King yourself?"
Yitu reached out and hugged his lover back, feeling the man's strong heartbeat, and then he spoke:
"He didn't struggle."
Jiang Hanyu was stunned when he heard this, "Night King?"
Yitu nodded, "He didn't resist. The divine consciousness and pain killed him instantly."
After this incident, the Night King tested the authenticity of his abilities, and indeed made Yi Tu feel somewhat humiliated.
He took it so seriously that he was ready to fight the Night King to the death, but the man unexpectedly surrendered.
The reason why the Night King sat like this was not only to verify whether the Queen of Hearts really knew the weakness of his immortal body, but also to keep his trump cards as much as possible.
In this way, all of Yitu's abilities are known to the Night King, but Yitu does not know what other means the Night King has to save his life.
Jiang Hanyu's expression flashed with complexity, "I told you a long time ago about Jin Zirui's character."
"He is extremely cunning and extremely careful about his life. You are not the first person to know his weakness, but you are the first one to survive."
"If that day ever comes and you run into him in a poker room, you might not be his match."
Jiang Hanyu said this, and touched Yi Tu's delicate cheek with his slender fingers, and said softly:
"But you still have me. No matter what, I will be by your side."
Yitu smiled, held the man's hand, and sighed:
"It's enough for me to have your words."
"Han Yu, what you said is exactly what I wanted to say to you."
Yitu looked into the man's deep, star-like eyes and said softly:
"Please let me be by your side at all times."
"You know what I mean, huh?"
Even if the Easter Egg Game is in the not too distant future and a disaster of unknown fate is about to befall, he wants them to be together forever.
Jiang Hanyu did not answer, but eagerly kissed his lover's slightly cold lips.
The burning love can consume everything and melt everything, even when the night has fallen.
This is the fastest-ending spring season in history, no doubt about it.
The game had only just started four days ago, and overnight there were less than thirty teams left on the leaderboard.
One werewolf night almost wiped out most of the players, whether they were top or bottom.
At the enthusiastic invitation of the Red Heart King, the Crazy Team reluctantly eliminated all the remaining members of the Qiqi Team.
After all, as a member of the Knights of Light camp, Chi Que cannot attack civilian players, even if they are judged as thugs by the system.
Therefore, among the four major camps, the civilian players who can survive in the end are all from very small teams, and they can't even make it into the top 100.
As a result, the teams at the top have already earned enough points to stabilize their rankings, so they are given a break.
The teams that are consistently in the top four are Handian, Moya, Kuangtu and Chique.
However, Lieqi, which was eliminated early, still managed to rank firmly in fifth place.
After all, before the Night King died, he had already eliminated many players and earned a lot of points.
Although the spring season has come to an end, the game system did not recognize it immediately. It was not until the seventh day of the game that the tasks for civilian players were announced.
Only when civilian players complete their tasks will the system assume they have completed the game.
The task of all civilian players is the same, which is to open the king's treasure chest for him.
It turns out that before the plague and famine broke out in Adrian, a very wealthy traveler passed by here.
The traveler planned to visit Adrian for seven days, and in order to show his respect to the king of Adrian, he was willing to give the king a 26-inch treasure chest every day.
The king was very happy to hear about this, and he specifically instructed his ministers and nobles to receive the guests well.
So, on the first day, the king received a treasure chest inlaid with rubies. When he opened it, he found rare and precious jewels inside.
The next day, the traveler presented a treasure chest as usual. When it was opened, it was filled with clothes made of gorgeous silk.
In this way, for three or four days, the traveler received excellent hospitality in this small country. If nothing unexpected happened, the traveler would give the king an extra special gift on the seventh day to express his gratitude.
However, an accident still happened. On the fourth night, a young nobleman got drunk and fell in love with the traveler's wife. He raped her regardless of her pleas and struggles.
When the traveler learned of this, he was heartbroken and begged the king to give him justice and execute the nobleman.
However, Adrian's king suddenly changed his mind, denied the nobles' immoral deeds, and ordered the travelers to be arrested and imprisoned.
The traveler was wrongfully imprisoned, and the greedy king, unable to find his treasures, still demanded that the traveler fulfill his promise and hand over a treasure chest to the king every day, otherwise he would kill the couple.
Under pressure, the traveler handed over his treasure chest as requested, but this time, he handed over all the remaining three treasure chests.
He told the king that only one box could be opened each day, and that things would become very troublesome if they did not follow their previous agreement.
The king nodded in agreement, but became furious after opening the first box because it was an empty box with nothing in it.
Feeling that he had been fooled, the king immediately opened the second box, but inside the second box was only a piece of rotten bread with a bite taken out of it.
The king couldn't believe it and just wanted to open the third box, but found that the third box seemed to be locked from the inside and could not be opened at all.
The extremely angry king immediately went to the prison to look for the traveler, but he found that the traveler had disappeared with his wife and was nowhere to be found.
And from that day on, plague broke out in Adrian and famine followed.
The task of civilian players is to find a way to open the third box. If they cannot open the box within seven days, the task will be announced to players from other camps.
The method to open the third box was already written on the suitcase.
[The tears of repentance from the arrogant and greedy can open this box]
The meaning of this sentence is obvious, which is to make the king who committed this mistake shed tears of repentance and understand the disaster that has befallen the entire country.
However, it is such a simple thing, but ordinary players have never been able to do it.
Because King Adrian was heartless, he watched his people suffer from disasters without any sympathy, and even kept complaining about these lazy civilians for not being able to produce enough food for him.
Even during the most severe period of the plague, the nobles were still allowed to live extravagantly and force the people to pay taxes.
The king's corruption and inner decay made it impossible for him to shed a single tear, so how could he repent?
Yitu sneered, and released his spiritual power and pain at the same time. However, in just a few seconds, the king knelt on the ground and cried, begging for mercy and repenting.
The third treasure chest was finally opened, and Yitu thought that there might be medicine to cure the plague or some magic inside.
However, he was wrong. There was no medicinal formula or magical spell in the treasure chest, only a yellowed old pocket watch.
Time can take away too many right and wrongs, but who says that time is not the best way to punish those who feel guilty.
Yi Tu took out the pocket watch from the box and smiled at Jiang Hanyu.
"It's time."
He gently moved the hands, and everything around them passed by and retreated behind them.
Yitu leaned close to the man's ear and whispered:
"Time proves that I love you."
