Boom...

There seemed to be a faint turmoil in the royal capital. In the originally silent night, there were some sounds of fighting. The guards of the royal capital were quickly gathering. From time to time, bursts of shouts were heard, which plunged this huge Lion City into a trap.

It was weird for a while.

Many people were distraught. This was the royal capital. It had been peaceful for so many years. How could there be such a big turmoil suddenly?

"The first team is guarding here, the second team is all climbing up the stairs, the third team... ho ho..." A big man who looked like an infantry knight was shouting, and suddenly a cold light flashed across the night sky, and the dark black crossbow bolts tore the air.

, stabbed straight into his neck.

"Sir!" Many people were shocked and angry. They hid their heads behind heavy kite-shaped shields and stood back to back. They scanned the surroundings through the gaps in the shields, trying to find the murderer hidden in the dark night. However, the murderer

After releasing the crossbow bolts, I saw many long archers from the Fierce Lion Realm searching for targets in hidden places.

"Humph," Les, who was hiding in the darkness, watched the infantry knight fall to the ground with a hint of disdain on his lips. The biggest danger had been eliminated, and the remaining armored infantrymen did not pose much of a threat.

As for those slingshots? No, they were armored longbowmen from the Lion Realm. Not to mention the threat, Les easily rolled out of the window. When he landed, he also caused a small movement. After a burst of energy and blood shock,

, and it no longer feels uncomfortable.

But……

"What!" Les's face changed. There were six figures staring at him all around him. The heraldic chain armor robe glowed with a faint light, and the sword of the Knight of the Fierce Lion Realm was already aimed at him.

.

Six seventh-level armed infantrymen from the Lion Realm!

For a moment, Les felt a little numb. As a shadow assassin, he hid in the darkness. Once he made a move, thunder would erupt. However, when he was surrounded by people, he also felt a little numb for a moment.

Looking out of the corner of his eye, he saw all eight-level halberdiers of the Fierce Lion Realm blocking all escape routes. The serious look of these honor guards was a bit scary. They were all wearing polished plate armor that was already very fleshy, arm armor and chain mail.

The boots almost covered the whole person.

Although the honor guard has been criticized a lot on the battlefield, in this city, it is difficult for him to kill even one assassin!

But at the next moment, Les had no time to think, because the armed infantrymen who were close to him were already coming towards them with long swords...

At this time, Leo in the tavern had already woken up. Such an astonishing shout of killing shocked him. This was the royal capital, how could there be such a big commotion?

Fortunately, the Kent Tavern has an extraordinary origin after all. It seems that the footsteps of footsteps have been heard below the tavern. They are uniform and appear to be the city guards of the royal capital. It makes the tavern very quiet.

However, it was impossible for Leo to sleep peacefully at this time. Fortunately, he walked out of the room and looked towards the first floor where many tenants had woken up and were communicating.

"What's going on? I've been in the royal capital for five or six years, and nothing like this has ever happened before." A bard muttered, looking a little surprised.

"Who is so brave and dares to cause trouble in the royal capital?" Many people were extremely surprised. This is the center of power in the Lion Realm. The huge Lion City has been peaceful for so long. Why do there suddenly be people who dare to do so tonight?

make trouble?

"Uncle Wente, look at who he is, he must be a little too courageous." Leo frowned and said, he really didn't want to encounter anything in just a few days in the capital.

After all, the standards of such a large royal capital are too high for him, and even a small wave of undercurrents within it can knock him over.

"I don't know either. It's hard to imagine that this kind of thing can happen in Lion City. It's really..." Uncle Went smiled helplessly. Even in his heyday, he made such trouble here and never came back.

"I don't want to think too much anymore. Let's settle everything as soon as possible and then return to our barony." Leo smiled bitterly. "It would be really shocking if something happened here."

One night, with a lot of shouts and flames shooting into the sky, the royal capital, which had been peaceful for hundreds of years, became noisy again. Many nobles also recalled their soldiers from the barracks to garrison their mansions.

Of course, Leo is not like this, because currently he still has no cards to live in the tavern, and there is no need to recall soldiers.

…

In the palace, King Ulric looked at the secret treasure in his hand, violently swept the vase on one side to the ground, slapped the table with a huge broad sword, and said viciously, regardless of the shaky table,

"Count Pabrette?

How could he be involved with those snake cubs who worship the Snake Cult? He is in charge of a quarter of the city guards!" The roaring King Ulric was almost swollen with anger, and his curly blond hair spilled out.

His expression was extremely ferocious, like a lion that chooses people to devour.

"Your Majesty, you have forgotten that Count Pabrette, his great-grandfather, was once a member of the Griffin Knights." The palace valet Hu Te was not intimidated by King Ulric in front of him, and he almost sang in a song.

Aria said in a tone of voice, "What happened this time may have been a joint effort between the Griffin Knights and the Snake Cult.

Only the people of the Griffin Knights are so familiar with the royal capital, and those who worship the Snake Cult will suddenly appear and then leave quietly."

In the continent of Pendor, there is naturally no such thing as a (political) trial. The widespread intermarriage system among nobles is more or less related to relatives. King Ulric did not think that the blood connection was already extremely distant.

, and it will remain so until now.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what Hut said makes sense," Marquis Kelrek also said, "What we should do most now is to stabilize the royal capital and slowly hunt down the remnants of the Snake Worship Cult.

Retrieve the kidnapped Snake Cult priest, and we can discuss Count Pabra’s guilt later.”

"To put it lightly," King Ulric snorted, "I remember that your Marquis of Kelrek's niece married Count Pabrette's nephew."

"Your Majesty, our Stan family will never be involved in this matter!" Marquis Kelrek said hurriedly, and he was not too afraid. After all, he was sure that his family would never be involved.

As for the other types of nobles, they were also worried, worried that the golden lion in front of them would do something unacceptable to them.

"Okay, you can go out first," King Ulric waved his hand irritably, looking at the nobles in front of him, feeling quite irritable in his heart.

"Hu Te, who among those people do you think is reliable?" Seeing that everyone had left, King Ulric had a shrewd look on his face that didn't suit his appearance, "I didn't expect that, Pa

Even Earl Brett will be involved."

"Your Majesty, after all, Count Pabrett is in charge of many people in the city guard. Naturally, the Griffin Knights will not give up on him easily. They probably tried every means to have contact with Count Pabrett," Hu Te

He said respectfully, "One Pabret is not a big deal and cannot change the world."

"One Pabrette can't change the world, but who knows how many Pablets are hidden in this royal capital," King Ulric scratched his hair irritably, "The Wind Patrol didn't notice all this, and

It was really his dereliction of duty, um, no, I remember... hiss..."

Huth didn't dare to make a sound at this time. He could see that the anger level of King Ulric in front of him was constantly rising.

"What a great Brand," King Ulric almost suppressed his anger. Brand is the Patrolman of the Patrollers, and he is considered to have a powerful position in the entire dynasty. Ulric cannot do it now.

It is certain that Brand secretly communicated the song or let it slip for some unknown reason, but no matter what, this is something Ulrike cannot tolerate.

"Hu Te, tell me, how many people in the huge royal capital can be trusted now?" King Ulric shook his head and said helplessly. He even walked aside and held the flag of the Lion Realm in his hand.

Veins popping out.

"Your Majesty, please be at ease. There are many loyal ministers in the kingdom, and those who can be bought are those nobles who have surrendered themselves to corruption," Huth said quickly. "The foundation of the kingdom is like the Duke of Alama. He is absolutely loyal and cannot be the same."

Those thieves come and go in secret."

"I don't doubt the loyalty of the Duke of Alama," Ulric choked out unhappily. Even the furious lion seemed to be less fierce about the interior that he had been loyal to since childhood, but it was still the same.

He shook his head helplessly and said, "Those who are determined to be loyal, their power is too huge.

We can't let them control the Patroller, otherwise I won't dare to use the Patroller again, even if it's just for a few days."

Hu Te suddenly understood. He also knew that this was the truth. Those Dukes were all figures who could rival the King. How could the Patroller be left to them with confidence?

"Then Your Majesty, why don't you let the Patrollers sort things out internally," Hu Te said softly.

"No," Ulric waved his hand heavily, almost smashing the table that was on the verge of breaking. "The priest of the Snake Worship Cult must still be in the city at the moment and must be captured as soon as possible. And tonight in the capital, I'm afraid it won't be..."

So clean.

After all, the Patrollers are still my royal family's sharp weapons and are indispensable, especially at this critical moment, but I can't guarantee now which ones will be absolutely fine."

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten someone? If you serve as a patrol officer in a short period of time, it is a pretty good choice." A figure flashed in Huth's mind, and he immediately smiled at King Ulric in front of him.

said.

"Huh? Who are you talking about?" King Ulric asked with some confusion.

"That earl who is new to the royal capital," Hu Te said with a smile, "he was originally a baron from a remote area, and he was destined not to be a member of the Griffin Knights.

The Duke of Alama accidentally said that Captain Moore also had a good relationship with him, so he should not have any entanglements with the Snake Cult. If he only served as a patrol officer for a period of time, it would always be very appropriate. Moreover, it seems that he

His abilities are also quite impressive.”

"Yes, yes! This boy seems to be capable." King Ulric's eyes really lit up, and then he became a little distressed, "But his relationship with Alama is not shallow."

"Your Majesty, don't forget that he was not brought directly into the palace by the Duke of Alama," Hu Te said with a chuckle, "The patrolman checked him, and it was only in the past few days that he became friends with the Duke of Alama.

.”

"Okay, okay!" King Ulric also changed from anger to joy, "That's him!"

As soon as the morning light fell on this day, many people were already taking to the streets. After all, in the middle of the night, the royal capital had already returned to calm. Team after team of orderly Lion Realm Halberdiers were patrolling around to calm people's hearts. It was obvious that

The powerful foundation seems to be searching for something.

"If nothing else, these honor guards of the Fierce Lion Realm are quite calming in appearance," Uncle Wente said with a chuckle. No, although I heard that the honor guards of the Fierce Lion Realm performed poorly on the battlefield,

But looking at these piles of euphorbiers, they still look pretty good.

When ordinary citizens look at such halberdiers, they seem to feel a lot more at ease.

"Let's hurry up, understand the matter as soon as possible, and try to leave the Royal Capital directly," Leo smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Sell the goods if you can, forget it if you can't, and leave this Lion City as soon as possible.

That’s the key.”

The first important thing was naturally to pick up the slaves who had placed the order yesterday. Taking the vouchers issued at that time, Leo had already arrived at the bondage camp of the Bai Ke Chamber of Commerce.

But at this time, the liberation camp had a slightly strange atmosphere.
