Chapter 757 Linley’s Revenge
The vibration coming from the direction of the Temple of Light attracted the attention of the entire Fenlai City.
Many residents of Fenlai City opened their doors and windows and looked at the light blue storm that spread across the sky in the distance with astonishment on their faces.
In the palace, King Clyde, who was sleeping with his beautiful concubine in his arms, suddenly woke up from his sleep and covered his chest.
"What...what's going on..."
"This inexplicable feeling of heart palpitations..."
Clyde clutched his chest and panted heavily, with large amounts of cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
The concubine next to her was startled by Clyde's sudden movement. She opened her sleepy eyes, exposed half of her shoulders from the soft quilt, and said softly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
"..."
Clyde's expression changed.
He ignored the beautiful concubine beside him, got up and got out of bed, came to the window naked, then waved his hand and used his fighting spirit to tear the expensive satin curtains in front of him to pieces.
The sudden rough behavior made the beautiful concubine on the bed scream in surprise.
But Clyde was completely in no mood to pay attention to the movement behind him.
His pupils shrank, and he looked at the scene outside the window with horror on his face.
Outside the stained glass window of Clyde's palace, there stood a six-meter-high gray stone pillar. On the stone pillar, a five-meter-long white lion was tied with a light cyan rope. It was the contract that Clyde had conquered. Warcraft, a level nine icy snow lion.
But at this time, the ice-cold snow lion's hair, which was originally as white as snow, was already stained with scarlet blood.
Looking up along the blood-stained body of the snow lion, the place where a head should have grown was actually empty at the moment. Only the fluffy snow-white mane was still majestic and stained with shocking scarlet.
"Gurgling——"
Blood exuding cold air continuously gushes out from the cross-section of the severed head, then flows down the body of the snow lion, and gathers at the base of the stone pillar to form a pool of scarlet blood mixed with ice.
"How...how could this happen..."
Clyde's eyes were horrified and he couldn't help but take two steps back.
He finally knew where the heart palpitations just came from——
That was the last warning that the monster he had tamed sent to him through the contract before his death!
"Come on, come on!"
Clyde turned around suddenly, shouted angrily outside the palace, and grabbed a broad sword on the bedside.
But unfortunately, the outside of the palace had become silent at this time. No matter how much Clyde shouted, there was no response.
"call--"
"Crack!"
Along with the howling wind, the stained window behind Clyde shattered.
The strong smell of blood came in from the window and filled the tip of Clyde's nose.
Clyde's eyes widened, and he held the hilt of the sword tightly in his right hand, looking towards him with some horror.
I saw a snow lion's head, which was all white and stained with blood, was thrown in from the window. The ferocious and majestic face was still full of anger, and it seemed that through its expression, I could see the bloody battle it had fought during its lifetime.
But no.
The battle between the snow lion and the enemy lasted less than five seconds.
Because the enemy's strength is far stronger than the snow lion itself!
"call out--"
There was a quiet sound of wind, and a sharp sword blade came out of the window and rested on Clyde's shoulder.
The cold edge was mixed with blue-black fighting spirit, which made Clyde's neck turn slightly red and even sting.
Looking at the purple luster reflected from the sword blade in his peripheral vision, Clyde couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.
He clenched the broad sword in his hand, and just as he was about to speak, the woman on the bed let out an extremely frightening scream.
"ah!!!"
"Weird-monster!!"
……Oops!
Clyde angrily cursed this stupid woman in his heart, and at the same time, through the woman's beautiful sapphire eyes, he saw the appearance of the person behind him.
It was a humanoid monster that was over 1.9 meters tall, covered with pitch-black scales, with blade-like black fins growing on its back and arms, and azure-blue light blooming in the gaps between its scales.
Seeing this scene, Clyde was slightly startled, and then his heart tightened. He swallowed and whispered: "Your Excellency, don't be impulsive. I am the ruler of the Kingdom of Finlay under the Holy Alliance. I own all the wealth of the entire kingdom. , no matter what you want, I can give it to you!"
"Do you want money? There is a magic crystal card hidden in my bedroom, which contains a full 100 million gold coins!"
"Do you want a woman? Look, there is one on the bed. She is the concubine I just took in. Her appearance is peerless. If you want, I can give her and her twin sisters to you!"
There was a hint of confusion and faint anxiety in Clyde's tone.
Although he is also a ninth-level warrior, he has long been neglected in battle, and even this ninth-level strength was only forcibly improved by the grace of the God of Light after he presented a woman with a pure soul to the Holy See of Light. of.
In terms of combat power, he couldn't even defeat his own level nine snow lion beast, let alone the strange and powerful man behind him who could kill the snow lion.
That's right, murder!
Based on Clyde's understanding of the Snow Lion's character, if it hadn't been a one-sided crushing, it would never have been possible for him to die so quietly.
Because of this, he did not fight the dark monster immediately after it appeared.
Because he understood that he was definitely no match for the man who quietly killed the snow lion.
Seeing that the dark monster behind him continued to remain silent, Clyde suddenly became anxious.
He quickly continued: "Don't you want these? What about strength and power?"
"Your Excellency, you should know that the Kingdom of Finlay is the first of the six kingdoms of the Holy Alliance. The city of Finlay that I rule is also known as the holy capital of the Holy See of Light!"
"I don't say this to use my background to suppress you, I just want to remind you that the Holy See of Light stands behind me."
"If you can fight against the Kingdom of Finlay on your own, how can you still fight against the Holy See of Light behind me?"
Clyde persuaded him earnestly.
But the dark monster behind him was completely indifferent.
After a while, the dark monster finally spoke for the first time.
He asked in a low and hoarse voice: "One night ten years ago, you instructed Paterson to abduct a woman. I want to know if that woman is still alive. If she is alive, where is she? If she is dead, ...Then how did she die?"
Hearing the low words coming from behind him, Clyde was slightly startled, then his pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but say:
"You...are you here for that woman?"
"What is her relationship with you?"
"Shua——"
Before he finished speaking, the purple long sword drew a strange arc, cutting off Clyde's right arm at a speed that he couldn't react at all, and then rested on his shoulder again like lightning.
"Clang——"
The heavy broad sword fell to the ground, and countless blood poured out from the broken arm crazily.
The severe pain made Clyde couldn't help but groan, and then he covered his arm with a pale face.
The woman on the bed was so frightened by the bloody scene that she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Clyde's eyes widened, and he endured the pain and said angrily: "You...you..."
"Use your fighting spirit to stop the bleeding, and then answer my questions properly."
A cold and indifferent voice came from behind, causing the shock and anger in Clyde's heart to disappear instantly.
He used fighting spirit to stop the blood flowing from the broken arm, suppressed his pupils, and sneered with cold sweat: "If the woman you are talking about is the same woman in my memory, then don't look for it, because it would have been long ago." She died ten years ago!"
"..."
The purple sword on his shoulder trembled slightly, and then, a slightly rippled voice came from behind.
"How did you die?"
Clyde's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he endured the pain and said: "I dedicated her to a big shot, a big shot that you can't afford to offend!"
"Sir, no matter what your relationship is with that woman, I advise you to forget about it, because..."
"Shua——"
Another purple light flashed, and a piece of flesh as thin as a cicada was cut off from Clyde's severed arm.
Severe pain came, causing Clyde to let out an extremely miserable cry.
The dark monster growled in his ear: "She is my mother!"
Clyde's eyes widened, his face full of astonishment, and he suddenly realized.
"That's it, that's it!"
At this point, Clyde no longer expected the other party to let him go.
He laughed loudly, looked at the dark monster with a mocking face and said: "Since you insist on asking for death, I won't hide it from you. The murderer who killed your mother back then was the Holy See of Light!"
"As the supreme Lord of Light, the God of Light does not require much from us mortals. He only needs two things. One is the faith of believers, and the other is a pure soul!"
"The Holy See of Light offers pure souls to the Lord of Light every year. This is an open secret among the six kingdoms of the Holy Alliance. Only nobles of the kingdom like me can know it."
"And your mother was the sacrifice sacrificed ten years ago, and she was also the purest one in the past hundred years!"
At this point, the dark monster behind him was already a little distracted.
Clyde took the opportunity to sneak away from under the purple sword, turned around and looked at the dark monster, and said with a smile: "Do you know, in that sacrifice, the Lord of Light granted unprecedented grace, and what did the Holy See of Light get? I don’t know, but I know that after that God’s gift, I was directly promoted from a seventh-level warrior to a ninth-level warrior!”
"Not only that, the Holy See of Light also gave me an additional sacred magic scroll, which is this..."
With that said, Clyde flipped his right hand and took out a magic scroll from the space ring.
The next second, the Holy Magic Scroll was activated, and an invisible ripple instantly enveloped Clyde's body.
At this moment, the expression on Clyde's face instantly changed from a chuckle to a ferocious smile.
He grabbed the broad sword on the ground with his left hand, moved forward with a grin, and slashed at the forehead of the dark monster.
"Idiot, you actually asked me to take it out!"
"This is the Holy Domain Defense Magic Scroll 'Guardian of Destiny'. It has powerful defense against attacks from the Holy Domain -"
Before he finished speaking, there was a clear crisp sound coming from Clyde.
The purple sword appeared in front of his pupils like a ghost, embedded in the invisible ripples.
The sharp sword tip was stuck in the 'Guardian of Destiny' and stopped three centimeters in front of Clyde's pupils.
The cold sword light stabbed Clyde's eyes sore, causing him to stop abruptly. He held the broad sword in his left hand and kept raising it high, with a large amount of cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
"This...how is this possible?"
"How could you possibly pierce the protection of Destiny?!"
