“Bang!”
An exquisite crystal wine glass was thrown hard to the ground. Under the huge force, the wine glass instantly exploded into a ball of white powder that splashed everywhere.
"Damn Sanchester, I knew this guy was a traitor!"
In the restaurant, Aaron's King Salint Danger's face was darker than black stone, and his whole body was wrapped in a surge of rage.
The waiters in the restaurant huddled in the corner trembling with fear. Not only could they not breathe, they even clamped their buttocks tightly together, for fear that they would fart at an inopportune moment.
'Huff~~Huff~~'
Danger was breathing heavily, and amidst his rage, there was a deep sense of loneliness hidden.
No one is here.
There is no one else in this world who can plan for him wholeheartedly in times of crisis.
He knew in his heart that Sanchester was forced away by him.
He originally thought that the wizard was already very old and even if he left, it would not cause him much trouble.
Unexpectedly, not only did the old man's magic power increase significantly, but he was also full of energy again.
He knew with a little thought that this must be the ability of Duke Weilan, and this made him feel extremely powerless.
"Mortals really can't fight against gods."
He finally understood, but it was too late.
Because the most elite Lion First Legion had publicly called for him to step down, waves of public opposition to him were coming one after another, and even those nobles who had not been killed by him jumped out and raised slogans for revenge.
At this moment, almost all of Aaron was against him.
The only ones still standing by him were a group of jackals who specialized in doing his dirty work.
These jackals were thoroughly discredited and had no choice but to continue following him.
But since they are jackals, there is no moral mercy to speak of.
Since they can butcher anyone, they will also butcher him, the king, in order to protect themselves.
Thus, Danger vaguely saw his own ending.
"Haha~~ Sanchester was right after all."
"The right path is full of thorns. I gave up after taking a few steps. Now, I have indeed slid all the way into the abyss."
Subconsciously, he raised his hand and touched his neck.
'I don't know how long I can keep this head on my shoulders.'
Just when Dange was filled with frustration, a mellow and soft voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "Your Majesty, it seems that you are in big trouble."
Dange had never heard such a gentle voice before. At first he thought it was an auditory hallucination, so he ignored it.
Soon, the voice sounded again: "Your Majesty, the end is at hand, but it has not yet arrived. Are you planning to surrender?"
Danger finally came to his senses, but he didn't respond right away.
After all, he is not an ordinary person, he knows many secrets that ordinary people don't know.
After a little thought, he realized that the strange voice that appeared in his mind might belong to some inhuman creature.
"Get out of my head, demon!"
"No, I'm not a monster. My name is Ott Loveson."
"Some people do call me a devil, but more people call me a savior."
"I like to save people who are in trouble the most. When someone regains his past glory because of my help, I will have a strong sense of accomplishment in my heart."
Danger listened in silence and chewed the steak in his mouth hard.
He is not easy to deceive.
"Just tell me, how are you going to help me, and what are you going to take from me?"
"Ahaha~ Your Majesty, I like the way you speak."
"To put it simply, I hope Your Majesty can find me a group of believers. The more the better, at least a thousand."
"As a reward, I will grant these believers powerful powers and let them obey your majesty. Even if your majesty asks them to sacrifice their lives, they will not hesitate."
Danger wanted to laugh when he heard it: "Haha~ You are a demon in the void. When you have enough believers, you can do whatever you want. I don't have any means to restrain you."
"When the time comes, I'm afraid I'll be the first one to die in your hands."
"So, if you can't come up with a more sincere exchange, then our conversation ends here."
The demon was silent for a moment, then soon started again.
"Your Majesty, if you are willing to become my believer."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Dange.
"I would rather die than be anyone's disciple."
"Well, then your majesty you must need power. I can give you power and let you control it without losing your power of free will."
Danger then nodded slowly: "This is quite interesting."
"So, how much power can you give me?"
"I can make a sword for you, an extremely sharp sword that can kill legendary wizards."
"When you hold the sword with both hands."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Dange again.
"Does it have to be a sword? I prefer using a spear to a long sword."
"Okay, then I will give you a magic spear. When you hold the magic spear, your strength, speed, and even the speed of your thinking will be greatly improved."
"Your enemies will become slower than a snail, and you can easily stab them to death with this magic gun!"
Dange was not very interested, because few people used cold weapons these days.
When a real fight breaks out, the mages like to shoot each other with muskets and carry incendiary bombs with them.
Facing such a musket mage, using cold weapons to fight him is like being a fool.
He said calmly: "It sounds good, but it's actually useless. Devil, you'd better come up with something real."
The devil was a little confused: "Isn't this magic gun powerful enough?"
"Not enough, far from enough, and even a little stupid. If you know the world I live in, you should know that weapons like swords and guns are outdated."
"We're all playing with muskets now, understand, demon?"
There was a hint of contempt in Danger's tone, as if he was talking to a country bumpkin.
The devil understood.
Of course he knew that new weapons had appeared in the mortal world, but he had not had time to study them carefully, so he could not come up with any exciting new weapons for the time being.
As a result, the demon Otlovison was speechless for a moment.
Danger was a little disappointed: "Okay, demon, it seems you are also a useless person. Don't waste my time, go away."
Otlovison wanted to say something, but after thinking it over, he felt that the more he spoke, the more embarrassed he would be.
Finally, he left without saying a word.
Danger still had some expectations in his heart, but after a long time without any response, he knew that the devil was really gone, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Times are developing too fast. Even demons are lagging behind, let alone a mortal like me?"
Strangely enough, this made him feel much better.
But the Creator seemed reluctant to let him die like this.
After a while, another voice sounded in Danger's mind.
"Your Majesty, it seems that you are in trouble."
This is the voice of a middle-aged man, with the warmth of a mortal. It is most likely a human being.
The person who could penetrate the palace's heavy defenses and pass the news to his ears silently was definitely not a simple person.
Danger's heart suddenly surged with hope: "You are?"
"Legendary wizard Yastin, from the Glorious Empire. I heard that Your Majesty was in trouble, so I came here to help you through it."
Danger suddenly became happy: "Oh~ This is a bit more reliable."
"Oh? Has anyone seen His Majesty before?"
"It was him."
Master Yastin's voice suddenly became much more serious.
"Your Majesty, please do not underestimate this demon. He is a demon from Legend 4. His nickname is 'Blood Baron'. He likes to perform evil and bloody sacrificial ceremonies in the mortal world."
"Maybe he can't bewitch you, Your Majesty, but he can bewitch your subordinates and cause great trouble."
When Danger heard the seriousness of the situation, he was shocked: "What should we do now?"
"There is no need to do anything for now. Recently, the Blood Baron has not dared to make too much noise in the mortal world."
"Why?"
Mage Yastin smiled and said, "Because there are at least six legendary mages in Rhine City during this period. If he dares to cause trouble, he might die."
This shocked Danger: "Why are there so many legendary wizards suddenly?"
"It's hard to explain the specific reasons at the moment. You just need to know that these six legendary wizards all support Your Majesty."
"Finally, the Lord of Light asked me to tell Your Majesty that he would significantly increase the number of troops in the Giant Fortress to ensure that the First Lion Legion would be unable to take care of Rhine City."
"In the Storm Ocean, the Glorious First Fleet is also heading to the Gilded Strait and will cut off the connection between Weilan and Aaron when necessary."
"Your Majesty, what you need to do is to issue a suppression order and publicly execute the leaders of all the resistance forces in Rhine City!"
"I know this is not an easy task, but don't worry, we will help you find these rebel leaders."
Dange felt much more at ease and asked again, "What's next?"
"Without the trouble from the rebel leader, and we leaving two legendary wizards to help you, you can firmly control Rhine City, and then cut off the military supply of Lion Fang City. You can use this as a threat to remove the current commander of the Lion First Legion, and find a way to open the Giant Fortress!"
"As long as the Glorious Legion successfully enters the Aarons Plain, the rest will be left to us."
Danger listened carefully, his heart trembling slightly.
He knew in his heart that this path was not much better than the one proposed by the devil.
Once the Glorious Legion floods into the Plains of Aarons, there will be no need for him as the king to exist.
By that time, that would be the day of his true death, and even the entire Dange family would be buried with him.
Danger suddenly came to his senses and couldn't help thinking, "What on earth did I do?"
We're all going to die anyway.
Why did he die leaving behind such a huge infamy?
So he fell silent.
Perhaps because he was silent for too long, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "Your Majesty, do you regret it?"
Danger let out a long breath: "No, I don't regret it, because I never really planned to let the Glorious Legion enter Aaron."
At the beginning, out of impulse, he did have this idea and even took many practical actions.
But now, he saw the consequences of this idea.
The fire of impulse cooled down and the mind became clear.
"You just regret it."
"Okay, I regret it, but what can you do about it?"
"Humph~ I just want to tell you that it's too late to regret now. Because things are no longer up to you."
Just as he finished speaking, the door of the restaurant was kicked open.
A team of 20 Aaron Night Guards rushed into the restaurant, led by Blood Flame Sarath.
He held the musket in his hand, his eyes dancing with intense flames: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I have no other way out except to obey."
Danger looked at the group of jackals, sighed, and slowly put down the knife and fork in his hand: "Then you can do it."
'Bang! Bang! Bang!'
Aaron's night guards opened fire without hesitation.
"Buzz~~~"
A thick ice shield suddenly appeared in front of Dange, blocking all the musket bullets.
You know, the attack strength of this musket is as high as eight rings, it can be fired continuously, and twenty people are firing at the same time.
It was actually impossible to break through the frost shield that appeared out of thin air, and could only leave white spots on the ice shield.
Danger was shocked: "What's going on?"
Immediately afterwards, two people walked out from among the servants who were shivering in the corner.
Both of them held exquisite staffs made of crystal.
One of them stood in front of Dange and protected him from the betrayer's fatal attack.
The other one pointed a finger at the group of Aaron Night Guards who were trying to kill the king, and released a very powerful group sleeping spell.
As soon as the spell was cast, the bodies of the 20 well-equipped Aaron Night Guards shook simultaneously and fell down limply.
Dange could tell at a glance that these two mages were incredibly powerful, beyond common sense.
He asked in surprise: "Who are you?"
One of the mages stepped forward and said, "I am Mage Kassadin, and this one is Mage Lambros."
"We are legendary wizards from Veran."
"Duke Weilan has ordered that if Your Majesty is willing to surrender, we will do our best to protect your safety. Once the situation stabilizes, you will be able to return safely to the Danger family's fiefdom."
Danger suddenly felt as if he were dreaming, but he grabbed the rope hanging from the cliff without hesitation.
"I am willing to surrender!"
After the words fell, the voice of the legendary wizard rang in the air of the restaurant.
"Danger, don't surrender so quickly. The battle has just begun."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mage Kassadin roared at the air.
"Master Yastin, as a fellow Nawat mage, I advise you to stop immediately, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable."
A voice came from the air: "Master Kassadin, Master Lambros, this is what I was about to say to you."
"There are three of us, and you are two."
"We also have three legendary wizards from the elves here."
"In this battle, our legendary power has an absolute advantage. Duke Weilan will definitely lose. As his helpers, you will not have a good ending either."
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man's voice suddenly appeared in the air.
"Master Yastin, stop talking nonsense. I'm in the eastern suburbs of Rhine City."
"Don't you just want to deal with me? If you have the guts, just come and find me."
"Hey~~Mage Rosen, I didn't expect you to come in person!"
There was a strong sense of surprise in Justin's words.
"Since Sassmar is determined to spare your life, we, the Nahuat mages, will certainly not kill you. But the same cannot be said for the three legendary mages of the elves~"
"So, I advise you to return to Weilan as soon as possible and not take any risks here."
The young man's voice sounded immediately.
"Legendary power is not about quantity, but about the wisdom of the mage."
"I alone am enough to defeat the six of you."
"Hmph~ Master Rosen, don't be too confident."
"Our Nahuat's legendary fighting skills are beyond your imagination. We also carry powerful legendary crystal staffs filled with mana."
"Not to mention you alone, even if Kassadin and Lambros come together, you have no chance of winning."
The two of them actually started bickering in Danger's restaurant, and Danger, who was at the center of the storm, seemed to have become invisible.
This attitude of disregard made him fully aware of his position.
"So~~I am actually an insignificant clown?"
