Chapter 292 The Bloody Crown (Happy New Year!)



As Basel's body fell heavily to the ground, a golden crown fell from his head and rolled all the way to Hattar's feet.

He finally got what he had always wanted, but Hattar did not feel the slightest joy in his heart, because Basel's words kept echoing in his mind like a spell.

Lynn's gaze lingered on King Hadrata for a while.

Whether it was his courage to use wizards to fight against the Church and try to find a balance between the two, or his calm acceptance of death and using death to teach his son the last lesson, he felt the ability and magnanimity of this "lion" king.

But he was too old, and in comparison, his two sons were far inferior. Perhaps this was the reason why Bazel had not decided on the throne for a long time.

Lin En waited for a long time, and seeing that Hattar had not come back to his senses, he could not help but remind him. "Congratulations on winning the throne, Your Highness Hattar, no, I should call you His Majesty!"

"The situation in the capital is still very complicated. We need to mobilize more manpower to suppress the resistance. More importantly, we haven't caught your brother Harold yet. This is a big threat..."

Hattar picked up the bloodstained crown on the ground, then looked at the servants who were shivering in the corner, and said coldly, "Kill them, Master Anthony..."

These people saw Basel die in their own hands, they must not let them live!

Anthony did not act immediately. Instead, he glanced at Lynn first. Seeing that Lynn did not refute him, he stretched out his hand, and the blue-purple electric current immediately enveloped the entire venue.

In an instant, these palace servants lost their lives in convulsions and wailing.

Hattar noticed Anthony's hesitation, but did not say anything. He just called the guards stationed outside the door and issued an order to hunt Harold throughout the city.

"Just charge him with being dissatisfied with his father's imprisonment and colluding with Cardinal Anruk to assassinate the king. Spread the news throughout the capital as quickly as possible!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The guard answered without hesitation, and then hurried out to pass on the message.

At this moment, a strong wave of divine power suddenly came from a distance. Anthony immediately noticed something was wrong and looked outside the hall with a frown.

Now that Anruk is dead, who else can wield such powerful magic?

Lynn didn't notice anything, but he also noticed Anthony's actions. When he was about to ask, he saw a red beam of light flying into the sky and then exploded.

"It's a firework shell!"

Outside Hattar's mansion, the musketeers stationed here were bored and imagining what kind of rewards they would get after contributing to the royal capital.

"This capital of Hadratta is a mess everywhere, not even as beautiful as Yieta." Old York curled his lips in disdain. He had heard that they were attacking the capital of a kingdom and was very excited, but after coming in, he found that it was nothing great.

"Didn't the wizards say it? The people outside the wizarding land are all barbaric and stupid. They can't even tell whether we are standing on a continent or a sphere." A musketeer named Apu responded with a sneer, then shook his body and muttered.

Born in the land of wizards, Apu had no fear for the so-called nobles. He turned his back and aimed at the pile of ruins on the ground, then took off his pants and peed in the prince's mansion. He should be the first person to do this, right? Apu thought proudly, and a stream of water suddenly gushed out from under him. While he was enjoying the water, he also saw a crystal object that seemed to be shining in the ruins...

Could it be the treasure that His Royal Highness the Prince has hidden in his mansion?

Apu immediately came up with an idea. Although the Musketeers had expressly prohibited smuggling and looting, as long as no one else could see it, he would not have violated any rules. He had secretly collected a lot of good things using this extremely fast method on a daily basis.

Thinking of this, Apu quietly squatted down, but unexpectedly, the crystal clear object that reflected light flew directly towards him.

This thing actually came to my door? This last thought flashed through Apu's mind, and then he was hit on the head by a small badge. He immediately lost consciousness and fell limply to the ground.

"Apu, did you trip over your own urine?" Old York saw Apu lying on the ground, walked over and said jokingly.

Apu stood up shakily, with an exquisite badge embedded on his forehead.

Old York also noticed this after he took a few steps forward. Just as he was about to ask, he saw Apu suddenly raise the musket in his hand! The black muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at his head. Old York's hair stood up, and as the trigger was pulled, the two people present paused.

Because there was no gunshot, Old York realized that the musket in Apu's hand was probably unusable due to moisture from the rain, and the other party would never joke with him with a musket, so he immediately shouted around.

"Be alert! Apu may be controlled by someone, tie him up!"

Several musketeers who heard the shouting immediately surrounded them. Since Apu was their companion, no one used muskets and just wanted to tie him up.

However, Apu, who usually likes to be sneaky and cunning, showed extraordinary strength and fighting skills. He used the musket as a hammer and knocked everyone to the ground in just a few strokes.

Fortunately, more and more people came over soon, and many of them pulled the bolts of their guns and shot towards this side.

Apu's face became extremely solemn. His mouth moved slightly, and then he stretched out an index finger. A dazzling white light immediately dispelled the darkness and blinded the eyes of everyone present.

There were bursts of exclamations. Old York and others, who had become temporarily blind, could only rely on their senses and randomly point their muskets in Apu's direction to shoot, which caused quite a lot of accidental injuries.

When they regained their sight and Ham and his men rushed back, Apu was nowhere to be seen.

"Hurry, use the fireworks to notify Lord Lynn!" Old York shouted loudly.

Ham did not have time to ask for details. He immediately took out the special bullet and stuffed it into the musket. He fired a warning shot into the sky, and a burst of red light exploded in the dark night sky...
