Kingdom’s Bloodline

Chapter 702 Bloody Iris (Part 1)

Oh! What is this? Someone knocked down two people in a row. That's not enough, and they went straight to the third person!

The host's voice echoed throughout the arena, surprised and pleasantly surprised:

Ah! From here, someone broke the tacit understanding of duels in twos and threes, and began to attack all opponents indiscriminately! Is it to reproduce the shocking miracle of Holy Law Montaiu who killed the whole audience by himself two centuries ago?

Originally, half of the players in the team competition were still waiting to protect themselves and save energy, carefully defending and counterattacking, in order to stand at the end and get a good ranking, but as someone broke the tacit understanding first, the chaos quickly spread like ripples:

The fighter who suffered the heavy blow retreated in pain and bumped into the back of another person. The nervous latter counterattacked and accidentally collided with the third opponent's weapon. Seeing the opportunity, the outer players subconsciously moved towards this side. Until he was hit by another ambusher who had been staring at him for a long time...

Wait, other people can't sit still anymore, and they also started to attack one after another. Everyone is attacking. It is not uncommon for many people to besiege one person's unfair scenes...

When the start is triggered, everyone's rhythm is quickly disrupted, and the entire arena is plunged into fierce and chaotic battles.

The situation is different! Audiences, our gospel has arrived! The real big melee has come earlier than before! The host stood on the high platform closest to the competition area, clenched his fists into the megaphone and roared.

As night falls, the entire arena is still brightly lit, and even the drums are louder than before. However, the melee in the team competition intensifies, and the players in a group fight chaotically. It is thrilling and inextricable. The audience stood up and exclaimed, and slapped everything they could touch to cheer wildly.

Do it! Do it! Get rid of him! Ahhhh!

Back, back, back, back, back, back! Ah! Grass! You trash! Give me back my money!

Everyone else has started, don't be cowardly! Come on!

Did you see Bian Li! He counterattacked and counterattacked, see -ah ah ah a little bit!

As the battle report came out of the outfield, the noise enough to shake the Emerald City came from the crowd outside the arena, overshadowing the voices in the arena. The whole election will be tense, the atmosphere is frenzied, and the heartbeat is accelerating.

What happened? The three people in the Duke's stand were interrupted by the increasingly chaotic situation on the field.

I can't help but turn my head.

They're here. Zhan En let go of Thales and stared blankly at the arena.

Where? Xi Lai didn't know why.

Look at the chaotic northwest corner!

The host's voice sounded again:

Kanamanni from the Tarundi co-government, he became a standoff, strongly intervening in a two-person duel, wielding a big sword to one against two without losing the slightest! It seems to say, 'That's it? Let's have another one !'——Oh, what you want! Didn’t it come here? It came from behind! Da Da, Caramani is out—this story tells us, don’t pull the frame you’re not sure about!”

But the sneak attacker didn't feel good either. After the elimination of Kanameni, he also suffered a hard blow. He looked like he was on the verge of collapsing, just like the old saying: When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman and his wife's adulterer benefit!

As for why, ha, who told the fisherman to leave home to go fishing!

Under the host's provocative commentary, the sound waves inside and outside the arena echoed, from the inside to the outside and then from the outside to the inside, which gave Thales in the main stand an illusion, as if he had returned to the country where he was seven years ago In the meeting, every word spoken there will usher in a delayed but shocking response from the Xingju Square.

This is just great.

Thales shook his head and looked at the chaotic melee below: Peace is no longer, everyone is crazy, it's more chaotic than street fights-is it normal?

Jen frowned tightly, shaking his head slowly:

In previous years, this situation usually has to wait until there are less than ten people, and everyone will be red-eyed, unless...

Some players were ambushing inside, deliberately speeding up the tempo, Hilley said.

Thales' heart trembled, he suppressed the urge to get up and go forward:

I didn't pay attention just now—do you see who it is?

Neither have I. They don't really want to incite riots, do they? Just rely on these hundred or so showy players? Shiley doubted.

It doesn't matter, Zhan En took a deep breath, as if he was trying to calm down and forget the gaffe just now, This is the arena, and the Emerald Legion has already deployed control in advance, no matter what happens, no matter what means they have prepared...

At this moment, a familiar voice came from the direction of the steps:

His Royal Highness Thales!

The three turned their heads in unison, just in time to see someone standing on the steps under the stands, arguing with the guarding Seychelles knight, while anxiously calling the name of the prince

Jen narrowed his eyes:

Thales, that's not yours...

Taylor's eyelids twitched:

That's right, my attendant, Wyah.

Which one? Hillary asked.

Thales couldn't help but sneer.

Which one? Jen was at a loss.

That's it... Anyway, let him come up first, maybe he has something to report? Thales gave up explaining.

Zhan En rolled his eyes and said vigilantly:

Wait, your attendant, is it possible for him to betray...

It's absolutely impossible, Thales said decisively, I believe in Wyatt more than anyone else.

Other Wyah? Hilley interjected.

Shut up. Thales said with a dark face.

Zhan En looked puzzled, but still waved to let the sergeants go.

His Royal Highness Thales!

Huai Ya stepped up the steps quickly and went straight to Thales.

Master Zhan En, and Ms. Cecilia, I just went to the bathroom, sorry to disturb your elegant mood...

Yaxing?

Thales glanced at it from the corner of his eye: in the corner not far from them, a player was knocked open by a pocket head, fell to the ground unconscious, bleeding, until the medical officer and the stretcher team saw the opportunity, they were cautious and quick Drag him off the field.

No, you came just in time, Wyah, where are the others? I remember I asked Hugo to ask about Mallos...

Huai Ya paused, showing embarrassment: They, uh...

Under Thales' gaze, Wyah took a deep breath:

They paired up, let's make a bet with the guys.

As soon as these words came out, Zhan En and Xile Qiqi looked at Thales.

Thales also twitched his eyebrows:

Down, bet?

Huai Ya looked embarrassed and smiled awkwardly:

Yes, yes, that's the one, you know, what to bet on...the banker, all-take-all, and the market...

So, you just gathered together and sneaked around below, just for this? Xi Lai looked contemptuously.

Is it so obvious? Huai Ya was startled at first, then reacted immediately, with an embarrassed look on his face, Oh, yes, yes, you discovered all of this, hey, hey, hey.

at this time?

Zhan En snorted dissatisfiedly, which was incompatible with his usual gentle and tolerant image, but he quickly reacted and coughed: Although I don't have much hope for your people, Thales, but...

Thales only felt his face stiff.

Damn.

Mallos is not here, do these bastards dare to absent from work openly?

I, he...you don't know something, betting is just a theory, they...in fact, they have their own important tasks, Thales said bravely, Wyah, right?

Huai Ya shuddered.

Of course! Your Highness! It's important! A very important task! Wyatt replied bluntly, They will appear as soon as they complete the task!

The Kevin Dill brothers and sisters looked at Thales with contempt.

Thales had no choice but to chuckle, and continued to watch the competition with a cheeky face: Oh, where did you just say that? That's right! See if there is anyone suspicious in the melee?

Only then did the siblings hum in unison and turned their heads.

The melee in the field was fierce and bloody. As the pace accelerated, the players were forced to deal with every opponent from all directions, just like on a real battlefield.

Wyah?

Yes, Your Highness?

You, you stand...too close to me.

Oh, sorry! Huai Ya took a step back in surprise.

It's okay. Also, can you... let go? You scratched my hand.

Ah, Your Highness, I'm sorry, I just... Huai Ya quickly let go, he glanced at Zhan En and Xi Lai from the corner of his eye, and smiled embarrassedly at His Highness, Long time no see, I miss you.

Zhan En and Xile Qiqi, who were staring at the competition in the field, looked sideways.

Um, of course, haha, Thales was stunned for a second, he squeezed out a smile, and looked at the Kevin Dill brothers and sisters, You know, Wyah and I have been together for so many years, and we have a very good relationship.

The iris brothers and sisters frowned, and returned their eyes to the field.

Well, Wyah... the prince said awkwardly, I still have something to discuss with Duke Jann—can you wait under the stands like before?

Zun—ah? Huai Ya turned pale at first, then took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, But, Your Highness, I, I have been away from you for too long, and I miss you very much, can I stay with you? Together, not much, just for a while?

Zhan En and Xi Lai turned their heads again, with strange expressions.

Thales' smile froze on his face.

Hey, I told you, we have a very good relationship, that's fine, then you just stay here. Facing them, Thales pointed to the arena naturally, and changed the subject, Ah! Look at those two contestants ! One black and one white, so awesome!

The siblings turned their heads suspiciously.

Everyone in the audience, look at him! The sword of fate, he is blocking the sword for his teammates, escorting the way, and forcing several people back along the way!

Following the host's words, the audience looked at the scene he was explaining—it was the two people Thales said:

During the melee, a black-armored warrior stepped forward step by step, with his long sword flying, nimbly piercing through at a speed that was not commensurate with his heavy armor and body shape, and knocked down several people within ten seconds. Kill a way.

And a white-clothed swordsman with a helmet covering his face followed behind him, taking steps with his sword in his hands. He passed by the moaning and screaming players lying on the ground. Whenever someone wanted to attack him from behind, the front The black-armored warriors had expected it, or turned around to protect, or threw long-distance throws to protect the white-clothed swordsman.

That black guy, he's...protecting another person? Xi Lai wondered.

Thales was about to reply, but keenly noticed that at some time, Wyatt quietly picked up Thales' saber - Warner.

strangeness.

With a frown between Thales' eyebrows, he straightened his waist calmly, feeling the JC dagger tied to his waist.

The host's deliberately protracted voice echoed in the arena, asking the same doubts as Xi Lai:

He and his teammates, are they another team of knight masters and servants who are touching and loyal? Or are the guards at home fighting endlessly for the young master's reputation? Or is it the tacit escort battle that the audience hates the most? Or... Another pair of life-and-death lovers who fell in love at first sight on the battlefield and protected each other? Let us wait and see the truth!

Seeing this scene, the audience talked a lot:

Again? Another one who paid for a walk?

Which family is this gilded son!

Hey, this is called training at the grassroots level, experiencing life, and enriching your resume!

Can you still play like this?

This is a team competition, and the default is to use means. As long as you can win, you can play whatever you want!

Then what's the point!

The black-armored warrior and the white-clothed swordsman in the arena formed a team of two, one on the outside and the other on the inside, moving and still, almost invincible. The players who were fighting fiercely around them centered on them, unconsciously forming a vacuum, Following the footsteps of the black-armored warrior, he moved slowly.

Oh, Bischoff and the others trekked all the way to break through the siege, do they want to occupy a favorable position and fight fiercely to the end? Then they can go far enough!

But at this moment, the host's cadenced explanation changed its rhythm:

Wait, why are they heading towards... No, no, no! Bischoff players! You can't cross this line, do you hear me? This is a foul, points will be deducted or even... go back, go back! This direction is not the competition area , you can’t come here to fight, and you can’t come here to escape the battle! If you don’t want to fight, just surrender and admit defeat... This is already close to the host platform, and there is a microphone line, which is very expensive... Eh, guards, where are the guards? Guards, Drive them back!

The host's voice was amplified and spread throughout the arena, grabbing the audience's attention for a moment. Everyone stood up, curious, and Thales and others subconsciously turned their heads and looked below the host stage:

Several guards faced the black-armored warrior, drew their weapons and berated him to go back.

But with a flash of sword light, the leading guard fell to the ground with a groan, and the rest were still surprised, before they could react, they were knocked down one after another by the black-armored warriors!

Thales was taken aback, and Jen and Hille also subconsciously leaned forward.

Wyatt stood behind Thales and swallowed.

Under the watchful eyes of the entire arena, the white-clothed swordsman followed behind the black-armored warrior. He did not strike a sword, but his posture was comfortable and his steps were light.

It's like visiting your own kingdom.

Foul! Hey! This is the holy general! You can't do this! You can't! You can't attack the guards!

On the podium, the host of the event waved his hands angrily, and the voice spread throughout the arena:

They are not your opponents! They will cancel the results! Well, if there are casualties, you are ready to go to jail! No matter how big the official is, it won't work!

However, the two players, one black and one white, didn't care and just moved forward.

Teams of guards came to reinforce from various passages, but the team competition was still going on, and the scuffle situation in the field was complicated, so they could not gather and enter the field at the same time to punish those who violated the rules. They could only arrive one after another, but one by one One after another was knocked down by the black armored warrior.

Maybe it was because they had never seen such a scene before, but many spectators were in high spirits. They stood up one after another and kept booing and cheering for this pair of contestants who broke the rules.

What's the situation? Thales narrowed his eyes.

Is that the person you're looking for? Hilley leaned forward.

I don't know yet, Zhan En stared at the increasingly chaotic team competition and that special pair of contestants, but I will know—in the cell.

At this moment, the Seychelles Cavaliers hurried up to the stands and came in front of Jann:

Master Duke! We found him!

Xi Lai frowned and turned around: What did you find?

The Seychelles knight looked at Thales and Hille with concern, and then coughed under Jann's eyes:

My lord, you asked me to pay attention to any suspicious things in the field...

The key point. Zhan En said concisely, without looking at him, but Seychelles shuddered.

Yes, my lord. The violator in black armor should be Tate Bischoff in the quarterfinals. Seychelles glanced at the two players, one black and one white, on the opposite side of the arena. He was found in a wooden barrel, or rather, the real him was stuffed in after being knocked out and bound.

The three frowned in unison.

No accident, an impostor. Zhan En snorted coldly.

Xi Lai narrowed his eyes: So, who is under the black armor?

I don't know for now, Seychelles stared at the black armor figure at the far end, but obviously, he is not weak.

Behind Thales, Wyah hesitated to speak.

At the same time, the black-armored warriors in the arena stopped below the host stage.

He turned his head and looked at the swordsman in white behind him.

Go, Seychelles, don't wait, just surround and capture as much as possible, if there is any resistance, hum, the Duke of Nan'an ordered Seychelles, If you still have accomplices, you should be unable to sit still at this time .”

Seychelles nodded.

I still don't understand, Thales wondered, Those two guys, they didn't approach our stands, they didn't try to assassinate or kidnap key people, they didn't even try to win the victory, and they attacked the guards in such a high profile... What are you going to do? Find out that the plan has failed, so you are breaking out?

I don't know, Zhan En shook his head, but based on past experience, all they can do is kill people.

Kill people.

At that moment, looking at the position of the black-armored warrior, Thales' eyes moved.

Killing and killing... If you don't kill and kill, the prince murmured, there will be no one to listen.

What? Jen asked.

no one listens...

listen……

In the next second, Thales, who thought of something, turned pale with fright, and stood up subconsciously!

While speaking, Seychelles turned to the guards under the Duke's stand, and ordered:

Emerald Legion! Weapons!

Swish!

The order was issued, and the sergeants around the Duke's stand unsheathed their swords in unison!

They were well-trained and imposing, and even scared many spectators in the surrounding stands.

Lorian and Silva, you lead the team to deal with the violators—

But at this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew up, causing everyone to turn their heads and close their eyes subconsciously!

Hurrah-huh!

In the sound of the wind, a light figure descended from the sky and landed beside Thales and Zhan En, and the sword light flashed!

Oops!

Thales' eyes blurred, he subconsciously touched the dagger on his back, but was yanked violently.

In the next second, there was a flash of sword light, and Thales heard Seychelles shouting and continuous metallic sharp noises:

clang! clang!

Thales was dragged back, trying to keep his footing steady, but felt several other figures turn up to the stands and fight!

how--

assassin!

Protect the Duke!

Your Highness, be careful!

What are you doing?

Really an assassin?

Dad is too creative, isn't he?

In the chaos, Thales struggled to breathe, only to hear many people around him exclaiming:

Steady!

stop!

Go!

I'm dead!

No one is allowed to leave!

Stand back!

Those who advance die!

After just a few seconds, the sound of the fighting in the stands subsided, and Thales was finally pulled up by two arms, barely standing still.

what happened?

But when he saw the situation on the field clearly, he was stunned again.

On the duke's stand, the captain of Seychelles stood opposite him, with a long sword in his hand, his expression frightened and angry.

Behind him, Zhan En was tightly guarded by heavily armed guards, and he was out of breath.

On the other side, Cassian Cavaliers also appeared in the stands at some point, protecting Hille in the middle. The latter was grabbing Cassian's arm, trying to poke his head out, and looked at Thales in surprise.

Why, Jen squeezed away from the guards and looked at the prince in disbelief, Why?

Thales? Xi Lai didn't know why.

What why? Assassins— Thales replied subconsciously, but he was stunned as soon as he turned his head.

I don't know when, Miranda, Glover, D.D, Rolf, Morgan, Paul, Niexi... the candidates in charge of the personal guards in the Xinghu Guards appeared neatly, or in other words, most of them appeared neatly In the stands, the same weapon was unsheathed and stood in front of him with great vigilance.

They guarded themselves in a corner of the stand, facing the swords of the Jade Legion on the opposite side, with a clear boundary.

Eh?

That said, the assassin who just appeared is...

You, you? Thales couldn't believe it, It's you!

The Xinghu guards were all excited, and they replied in a hurry:

Your Highness, are you alright?

Don't be afraid, we protect you!

Don't relax!

Take him away first!

Let's fight later...

Is the back safe?

calm!

Stop!!! Huai Ya yelled angrily, ending the noise of the Xinghu guards, Shut up!

The stands fell silent again.

Soon, from near to far, many spectators in the arena were attracted by the changes in the Duke's stand. They stopped looking at the two violators, one black and one white, but turned their heads one after another, talking about the Duke and What happened to the prince.

What happened over there?

The duke and the prince... are fighting?

No way? Now? Here?

It's hard to say, didn't the prince just kill a police officer under the duke's hand...

Hey, small things, housework, wife brother and brother-in-law quarreling over my sister... Believe me, we Humble people understand this kind of thing too well...

Huh? Isn't it true? Oh, what's the point...

No, if there is a real conflict, who do we help? Do we want to fight?

Nonsense, we are foreigners, help yourself!

Didn't you see what happened to that Caramani? Don't pull the fight if you're not sure!

The host's commentary that resounded through the stands also changed:

Oh, what happened to the audience? Who took them? Is the violator no longer able to attract their attention? Oh, it seems that something happened in the stands? Jealousy? Proposal? Let's see... ...Oh, it turned out to be the Duke's stand, hehe, it seems that Duke Zhann and His Royal Highness Thales are playing - er, er, that, let's turn our eyes back to the arena, let's go back to the competition! Look! , the heroic Brother Ba Li meets the mighty Dosalan, the former is moving, the latter is also moving, it is not easy to make a move, um, still moving, their tacit understanding tells us that when both sides are fighting, peace is the most important...

Even the guards who originally set off to maintain order and punish violators began to hesitate: Which side should they go first?

Thales pushed away the arms of D.D and Nexi, trying to digest everything in front of him.

Thales, Zhan En took a deep breath and looked at the prince in shock, What do you mean? Or is it as I thought, you are the trump card?

No! I swear I don't know! The confused Thales quickly raised his hand to show his innocence.

But Xi Lai stared at the dagger in his hand with suspicious eyes:

You really don't know?

Thales was taken aback: No, that's not the case, it's just instinct!

He quickly put away the JC dagger, but the Kevin Dill brothers and sisters still looked suspicious.

Thales closed his eyes and took a deep breath:

Wyah! Didn't you say they went to bet?

Huai Ya trembled and raised his head tremblingly.

Uh, yes, but you didn't say it, betting is just an explanation, the attendant said in embarrassment, They, uh, have other things to do.

Got something else to do?

Thales was taken aback again: And that's...

Everyone, it's too early for you to start! Huai Ya didn't dare to answer anymore, he turned his head and complained to his companion, Didn't I say to wait for my signal?

That's what I said too, Paul sighed, I also said that we'd better wait for Hugo's flag bearer to agree...

But they, these green hats have drawn their swords, they have drawn their swords! They have drawn their swords!

D.D stares nervously at the surrounding Emerald Sergeants:

Don't wait for the ghost to answer, I'm afraid that if it's later, I won't be able to wait for your signal!

ah?

Thales was taken aback.

Wait for the signal? Xi Lai narrowed her eyes.

No, me, it's not my signal, it's their own... Thales waved his hands quickly.

But you just said that you trust him the most? Xi Lai stared at him, Is this True Wyah?

I... Thales was speechless for a moment.

Sorry, Your Highness, that knight is too strong. Miranda gritted her teeth and covered her arm, blood dripping from her palm, I failed to hold the Duke hostage.

My fault, Grover snorted, I should have blocked him—damn, if I hadn't been hurt...

That's useless, Paul shook his head and sighed, I just said, it's time to use a bow and arrow.

After listening to this conversation, the Calvin Dill brothers and sisters looked at Thales with increasingly strange expressions.

The Seychelles captain on the opposite side snorted coldly.

I— Thales felt at a loss for words.

I don't understand, Jen En suppressed his anger, Can someone explain?

The people on both sides looked at me and I looked at you, still looking at each other murderously—with their eyes and swords.

Yes, my lord. Unexpectedly, it was Captain Seychelles who spoke, according to your order, I am responsible for monitoring the situation in the arena and paying attention to any suspicious signs. Unfortunately, I have now finally determined that the arena The people with the most changes, the most suspicious behaviors, and the most threatening strengths are unfortunately this group of people—the guards of His Royal Highness.

He looked at Glover and the others, and snorted coldly:

Hmph, I knew that there must be something wrong with this group of people who have gathered together for so long.

Thales was surprised:

I……

But before he could speak, Huay Ya pulled him back.

I'm sorry, Your Highness, it's an emergency, and we have no choice but to make this decision, Huai Ya lowered his voice and whispered in Thales' ear, but at this moment, Lausanne II is probably hiding in the crowd of scuffles below. , wait for the opportunity.

Thales was surprised:

What, him? But he's not…

Yes, still alive, D.D said bitterly, Believe me, Your Highness, I don't want to either.

On the other side, Seychelles reported loudly:

Just now, there was a naughty boy who asked me to meet Cassian in the name of each other...

But when we got there, we realized that we had been transferred away... Cassian sighed.

Everyone in the Xinghu Guard turned their heads and looked at D.D unhappily.

When they... just met, they looked like they had old grudges, Doyle was stared at a little embarrassed, I just... have to try?

Jen's brows became tighter and tighter.

My lord duke, according to my observations, from the very beginning of the election, Seychelles stared at them with growing resentment, these gangsters have been spying on information in an organized way, chatting back and forth, and the people they come into contact with Each one is special...

Everyone in the Star Lake Guard looked at each other and frowned.

We are looking for information, Your Highness, by the way, we have discovered some terrible truths, Wyatt whispered to Thales, The dead these days, including Slimani, Your Highness, they were all killed for the same thing. Silenced, in order to cover up a certain secret—the secret that allowed Duke Jann to take power.

the truth?

secret?

Take power?

Taylor's eyes moved.

He looked at Jann suspiciously.

This guy, what else did you not tell me?
