Chapter 572 Assassination
Bazel was stunned for a moment. He felt that he should be angry, but he was not.
In front of him was the prince who assassinated the queen, but his heart was unexpectedly calm, as if those thoughts did not belong to him.
Doesn't belong to you?
An inexplicable sense of disobedience arose in his heart.
I have had this feeling many times, but each time it quickly disappeared. But this time, it didn't seem to happen.
The prince's eyes just glanced at him and then looked away, as if he had lost all interest in him.
The prince turned his head and whispered to another person beside him. Bazel looked over and saw that it was the Lord of Castel, Hughes.
"Basel, do you plead guilty?" Another question came from above.
Confess?
What was his crime? He had killed Nora and sent her head to Castel, a blatant provocation that had brought war.
But why did he kill Nora?
That's of course because
Bazel suddenly froze.
The people in the courtroom looked at Basel, but Basel did not move at all. He just stared at Hughes, and a trace of confusion suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Zeus raised his eyes and looked at him. Looking at Zeus's clear eyes, Basel felt that something in his mind suddenly shattered.
The next moment, he suddenly roared.
"Lina. Lina!? Lina!!!!" Basel's eyes were almost spitting fire. He felt his mind become clear, and many things that he had never paid attention to were instantly connected together.
And at this moment, Basel's body shattered into pieces, and the bone fragments quickly extended forward from his body and rushed towards Zeus!
Ash's pupils shrank instantly, and veins popped out on her arms. Bazel's head was immediately torn into pieces, but the bone fragments were like extended ice cones that had already rushed out of her side. She reached out to grab them, trying to pull the bone pillar back, but the bones shattered at the touch.
Galahad's eyes became fierce, and his sword was unsheathed before he stood up. Gaia, Richard and other extraordinary people beside Zeus all rushed over. Faster than them was Nini, who was in charge of guarding beside Zeus. Her snake tail flicked violently and rushed straight towards the path of the bones.
But the speed of the white bones was much faster than any extraordinary person. Although it was not very close to Xiu Si, it arrived in front of Xiu Si before anyone came over.
Even Nini, who was standing next to Xiu Si, was a moment late, and the white bones poked Xiu Si in front of her fingertips.
At this moment, everyone opened their eyes wide.
Regret, fear, anger, different emotions appeared on people's faces, but it was too late for them to do anything. They could only watch the sharp cones of bones pierce towards Zeus.
Xiusi only had time to raise his hand to slightly block in front of him before the white bones touched his body.
The sharp bone pillar hit Zeus's hand straight on.
"No!!"
Hearing screams from all around him, Zeus watched helplessly as the white bones attacked him, but there was nothing he could do. He could only hope that the symbiotic contract could save his life - but perhaps it couldn't, as the white bones were rushing towards his head.
Damn, I'm not going to be forced to return, am I? Last time there was a big hole in my chest, this time it's on my head.
His thoughts only had time to make a detour, and before the revolving lantern began, the bones hit Xiusi's hand.
Afterwards
The sharp white bones like icicles seemed to have hit a red-hot iron plate, and instantly turned into water vapor.
A long strip of white bone rushed up, but was melted directly, as if everything just now was just an illusion.
Xius was stunned for a moment, looked at his palm, there was no wound at all, tried to curl up, and there was no problem.
What just happened?
Zeus' heart moved. This feeling was somewhat familiar. The bones that boiled and disappeared in an instant seemed to purify the pollution.
The sharp edge of the bone did not leave even a trace on Zeus, and he easily blocked the incredibly fast attack in front of everyone.
Everyone in the courtroom was stunned, and the entire hall was suddenly filled with the sound of a pin drop.
There was still fear on people's faces, and now there was also a touch of shock and weirdness.
Suddenly, there was a burst of applause. Everyone turned around and saw that it was the prince who was applauding.
"Too powerful, Ms. Nini. I didn't expect you to react so quickly and intercept the assassination."
He faced everyone's puzzled looks without backing down. Instead, he applauded even louder.
Nini widened her eyes in surprise and pointed her finger at herself. The prince turned his head and pretended not to see it.
People were stunned for a moment, then Galahad started to applaud, followed by his men, and finally the whole hall was filled with applause.
"Well, I suggest that this trial be postponed. Count Hughes, you might as well go for some examinations. Although the assassination was stopped by Nini just now, maybe there are some, uh, spiritual problems?"
Xius really wanted to say that he was fine, but looking at the people around him who were either dodging or looking at him fanatically, he sighed and nodded.
"That's it for today. The trial will be postponed." His eyes fell on Basel, who was reduced to pieces.
"Get a broom and sweep him up."
The trial of Basel has been postponed. The official statement is that Basel committed an assassination during the trial, and the lord needs to check whether there are any consequences.
But anyone with a discerning eye knows that this matter is not that simple.
There were many people who went to watch the trial, but none of them wanted to talk about it, and if they were asked too many questions, they would answer that it was Nini who blocked the attack and saved the lord.
But strangely, Nini did not write any related reports, and even her favorite newspaper ceased publication.
At the same time, the number of believers in the secret order has increased significantly, and more people will go to worship devoutly, but if you go to ask them, they will be very secretive about it.
According to rumors, some underground sects are active in Blood Harbor and Castel, and they seem to worship a special god.
Castel.
In the medical department of the testing ground, Hughes was sitting at a long table, and Richard was sitting opposite him with a dull look on his face, like a puppet.
After a long time, his expression suddenly became lively.
"How about it?"
"It looks like there should be no problem." Richard shook his head. "But this is just a rough observation. I wanted to use [Self-binding] to check the condition of your body, but..."
"Can't you see?"
"Well, that's about right. I can only see pitch black. Generally speaking, only extraordinary people cannot be observed. But they are not completely black, but blurry shadows. This is because their bodies and souls have merged. I am essentially observing the sea of unconsciousness."
"There is only one situation where it will be completely dark - it has been completely corroded and the body is full of pollution."
