Chapter 993 Assassination!

After leaving the phantom, Merlin got into the carriage and said calmly: "Go to the castle of Earl Otardy. ≥,"

The coachman didn't ask anything, just flicked his whip, and drove the carriage to Outardy's manor.

On the carriage, Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly. The current situation is really getting weirder, or in a sense, it is also clear.

The king, the second prince, and the eldest princess are almost three pillars now. In fact, the power of the king is not as terrible as imagined. The real power held by the princes and princesses in the royal family is also terrifying.

For example, the army that completely protects the palace now is actually completely in the hands of the second prince and the eldest princess. Of course, the second prince has greater rights. However, now that the eldest princess has the support of Merlin, the situation may soon be reversed. .

Once the situation is reversed, it will break the balance, and it will inevitably cause some conflicts. Perhaps, Merlin will have to prepare to deal with these sudden conflicts in the future.

"The biggest possibility is the second prince, maybe he will do something..."

Merlin is constantly analyzing in his mind, if the balance is broken, then one side will definitely attack. Merlin has never dealt with the second prince before, but he only knows that the second prince's subordinates also have several strong beasts, which seem to be the army. The strong ones.

The army, the palace, and the phantom are actually three parts of power. Originally, the king controlled the phantom, the second prince controlled the army, and the eldest princess controlled some forces in the palace. The eldest princess also retreated steadily.

Fortunately, the eldest princess made a prompt decision. Immediately win over Merlin at all costs. Well now. Relying on Merlin, the power of the Eldest Princess can be regarded as extending into the phantom, and it is precisely because of meddling with the king's power that Merlin was warned by Ferron sent by the king.

The matter of the royal family is simple and simple, but complicated and complicated.

"Squeak".

Soon, Merlin felt the body shaking. Then it stopped, and Merlin opened the curtain of the car, and it turned out that he had arrived at Earl Otardy's castle before he knew it.

"Wait for me here."

So Merlin jumped out of the carriage and walked towards Earl Otardy's manor.

*****

In a luxurious room,

With the candles lit, there was a hint of fragrance floating in the room.

In the room, a handsome man sat calmly on a chair with a hint of coldness in his eyes. He was listening to the reports of the three middle-aged men in front of him.

"Second Highness, it seems that the Eldest Princess has indeed won over the new deputy minister of the Phantom, Leo. This Leo, who killed the chimpanzee king, was hunted down by Doomsday Blood Massacre, but was rescued by Ferron. "

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

"Hey, the old man saved this Leo, and he was thinking of letting him work, but what happened? He took advantage of my good sister, tsk tsk, my good sister, your power is expanding so fast, you even stretched out your hand After entering the Phantom, I don't believe that the old man will remain indifferent?"

This young man is obviously the Second Prince of the Holy Dragon Empire, who holds the power of the army, and the three people in front of him should be the commanders of the army that the Second Prince values ​​most, and they are all powerful beasts. , not at all weaker than the leader of the Phantom Combat Team, Violent Bear King Hert.

The reason why the second prince is able to control the army is also related to his mother. His mother is the royal family of the Holy Dragon Empire, the most prestigious family of the God of War. Unfortunately, with the turmoil in the empire, the power of the army is not as good as before. up.

"Second Highness, Your Majesty may hold back. The current situation is different from before. The royal family has to do everything possible to win over some powerful people. This Leo is indeed powerful. It is rumored that he is still a parasite. However, relying on Leo, If the Eldest Princess slowly masters the Phantom, even if Ferron stops him, Leo can only control part of the Phantom's power, which is a great improvement, and I am afraid that the Eldest Princess' power will surpass us immediately."

The commander-in-chief of the army still said with some concern that even if they hadn't personally tried the method, they had heard about the power of the eldest princess, and they must not underestimate it.

The battle between the royal family is sometimes more cruel and terrible than anything else.

"Yeah, my dear sister, I really underestimated her. Now that she hasn't developed a trend, we must do it immediately. For Leo, we can just send someone to warn him, and he will understand. If we can It is good to take refuge in my side, if not, wait until my dear sister dies, no matter how strong he is, it will be useless."

"Therefore, two, send someone immediately, the focus is on Lisa, she must die!"

There was an aura of indifference from the second prince's body, and there was even a trace of murderous aura faintly.

"Your Highness, members of the royal family are not allowed to kill each other. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do so."

A middle-aged man said hesitantly.

"Hmph, the rules made by those old guys are usually fine. Now is the time when the empire is in turmoil. As long as I kill Lisa and hold the power of the army, will those old guys really want to execute me? Don't worry, the old man and those old guys will reprimand me at most and won't act rashly against me."

The second prince's gaze was full of madness.

The three middle-aged men pondered for a while, then finally nodded and said: "The all-beast-like strong man is too easy to expose. I am afraid that the intelligence department of the eldest princess has already put the all-beast-like strong man in our army. , I have clearly grasped it. Therefore, the all-beast-like strong must not be sent, otherwise, I am afraid that I will be discovered before I get close to the eldest princess."

"Can't send a full-beast-like strong man, and the beast-like fourth form is too weak, can he kill Lisa? My sister, although not very strong, is still a top-level giant beast bloodline, and she has also reached The fourth form of animalization! Besides, she must be protected by a dark all-beastly strong person beside her."

The second prince frowned. It was really difficult to kill the eldest princess with a sneak attack, and he couldn't send a fully animalized strongman. faction. That's it.

"There is another person. He must be able to do it. With him, the sneak attack is sure!"

The second prince's eyes lit up, and he seemed to think of someone. He said in a deep voice, "You mean Shadow Thorn? However, he is too greedy to get in close contact with the Heavenly Lion Sacred Beast."

"Second Highness, as long as the eldest princess can be killed, the Shadow Thorn will be useless. At that time, it is up to us to decide whether to take him to see the Heavenly Lion Sacred Beast!"

The three middle-aged men all laughed. Yes, no matter how strong the Shadow Thorn is, it is only the fourth form of Beastization. As long as it is not attacked by surprise, the Shadow Thorn is not much of a threat.

Even, in the end, the second prince can design it. Kill the Shadowthorn.

"Very well, let's do this. Go and inform Shadow Thorn, I agree to his condition, as long as he can kill Lisa, I will immediately take him to get in touch with the Heavenly Lion Holy Beast at close range!"

The second prince showed a look of anticipation on his face. He has been waiting for this day for a long time...

*****

In Earl Otardy's castle, Otardy looked at Merlin enthusiastically. In fact, as Earl Otardy's status, he also knew something about Merlin.

Of course, he definitely didn't know the secret information like Deputy Minister of Phantom, but the fact that Merlin beheaded the chimpanzee king was spread among the upper class of the nobles, and almost everyone knew about it.

Therefore, Earl Otardi also naturally knew that his gaze at Merlin was full of eagerness and anticipation.

"Leo, have you really achieved full animalization?"

After a long time, Earl Otadi finally couldn't help it, and asked in a low voice, even Barasa next to him blinked her beautiful big eyes and stared at Merlin closely.

"yes!"

Merlin nodded lightly, which was a personal admission.

"call……"

Earl Otardy heaved a long sigh of relief, but there was a hint of excitement in his eyes, full of beasts, such a great and strong man, even the ancestor of Earl Otardy, only one has reached it.

Moreover, Earl Otadi remembered very clearly that Merlin was still a parasite, and it was really unimaginable that this parasite was a fully animalized powerhouse.

"Leo, do you still have the Pearl of Infamy?"

Seeing Ou Tadi's inquiry, Merlin could only take out the Pearl of Infamy, shook his head helplessly and said: "I'm really sorry, because of me, the will of the giant beast that was sealed and suppressed in the Pearl of Infamy disappeared. gone."

Naturally, Merlin would not say the fusion of the will of giant beasts. This is his biggest trump card now. It will not be revealed until the critical moment. After all, it is too terrifying to fuse the wills of countless giant beasts to enhance their strength.

Earl Ottadi didn't care at all, waved his hand and said: "You keep the pearl of notoriety, I know that the pearl of notoriety can seal and suppress the will of giant beasts, maybe you are still useful. If the ancestors knew, relying on the pearl of notoriety, It must also be very gratifying to be able to give birth to a parasite, a fully animalized powerhouse."

Earl Otardy's attitude towards Merlin may be closer than his daughter.

"By the way, Merlin, I made an agreement with your father before that the wedding between Barasha and you has already been missed due to various reasons, but it doesn't matter, we can discuss it again at any time now. In my opinion, in one month's time, you how do you feel?"

"And Miss Race."

Merlin didn't forget Reese, the girl he saw when he first came to this world.

"Okay, if there is no objection, how about I take care of the wedding?"

Earl Otardy seemed very enthusiastic, but this was exactly what Merlin wanted, and he didn't have the energy to prepare these chores. It would be best if Earl Otardy did it for him.

"Everything depends on the count."

Earl Otardy seemed very happy, and kept Merlin chatting for a long time, until the sky was a little dark, and Merlin finally got away and left.

"call……"

Just after walking out of the house, the cold wind blew, which made Merlin feel much clearer. Thinking of the enthusiasm of Earl Otardy, Merlin felt helpless.

But it was finally settled.

After Merlin got into the carriage, he said directly, "Hurry back to the castle."

The coachman understood, and immediately twitched his whip, speeded up, and rushed back towards the castle like a gallop.

As the sky gradually darkened, there were only a few scattered people walking on the street, and there were still some lights illuminating the slightly dim road.

Merlin lazily leaned half on the carriage, not thinking about anything, his mind was blank.

No one noticed. On the bluestone road. A black shadow leaned quietly against the wall. When the carriage passed by, suddenly, the black shadow swelled and turned into a terrifying giant beast.

"boom".

The giant beast roared and punched the carriage. This carriage had almost no resistance, including the driver on the carriage. They were all smashed into a pile of meat in an instant.

"Roar……"

Suddenly, a roar sounded, and from the fragments of the carriage, a huge palm appeared, as if covering the surrounding sky, and slapped on the giant beast.

"Click".

The giant beast's body split apart instantly, and the blood was boiling very fast.

"boom".

The giant beast was blown to pieces from the inside out, and its flesh and blood were thrown into the air. It turned into speckled rain of blood, shocking. Even the strong smell of blood still lingers in the air.

In the smoke and dust, Merlin's figure appeared, a mere fourth form of beast, unexpectedly came to assassinate him, wouldn't this be death?

"Who the hell is it? Ferron? He just warned me that there is no need to use this method again. Moreover, using the fourth form of animalization to die is not really trying to assassinate me, but a warning .”

"Warning? I am currently in the Holy Dragon City. I am the closest to the eldest princess. If I really want to warn, it must be related to the eldest princess. Could it be the second prince?"

Merlin immediately analyzed all kinds of possibilities in his mind, and finally felt that there was a great possibility that this was the warning from the second prince who hadn't met yet.

"If it's just a warning, why did you choose this time? Could it be..."

Merlin was startled suddenly. He thought of a possibility. He turned around suddenly and strode towards the palace. With Merlin's current physical fitness, even if he didn't turn into a beast, he was faster than a carriage when he ran with all his strength. I don't know how many times.

"boom".

Suddenly, the entire palace almost trembled, and an incomparable giant beast appeared in the palace, and in that huge aura, there was even more endless anger.

"No, it's the all-beast powerhouse next to Lisa!"

When Merlin saw this giant beast, the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became even stronger. Even the all-beast-like powerhouse beside the princess had already erupted with such terrifying power, showing his full-beast-like real body. , that means that the eldest princess must be in danger.

Thinking of this, Merlin sped up a little more, and rushed towards the princess's palace.

*****

As usual, the eldest princess left the palace and prepared to go to the king's palace to pay her respects. This is the etiquette that the eldest princess must do every day. This is much better than the second prince.

However, this time, when she had just walked to the garden on the way, suddenly, a black shadow approached the eldest princess without a sound. perception.

"Puchi".

That white glow was a sharp knife, with a direct cut, the princess's head fell off without even a trace of reaction.

"Shadow Thorn? You dare to kill the eldest princess, and die!"

Beside the Eldest Princess was an all-beast-like powerhouse. Seeing the Eldest Princess' body limp on the ground, this all-beast-like powerhouse even felt a little humiliated.

Under his protection, the Eldest Princess died without a sound. This is the Shadow Thorn, and only the Shadow Thorn has such strength, which makes people die without even responding.

"bump".

The full animal bodyguard roared and almost smashed the entire palace into pieces, but the figure of the Shadow Thorn had disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared before. This is the Shadow Thorn, almost never missed, and has never been caught, and no one has even seen the true face of the Shadow Thorn.

"Damn it, Shadow Thorn, you damn it, get out!"

This all-beast-like powerhouse almost went crazy, destroying the palace frantically. Such a huge movement will definitely attract the attention of the masters in the palace.

"Whoosh".

Finally, Merlin rushed over, and when he saw the body of the eldest princess lying on the ground without even a head, an unstoppable killing intent immediately appeared in his heart.

The crazy beast-like powerhouse was crazily destroying the surroundings, even Merlin didn't see clearly, the huge fist directly smashed down, the sound of howling wind, and even the sound of air explosion.

"roll!"

With a low growl, Merlin's arm turned into a beast in an instant, and he punched out. The face of that giant beast that turned into a beast showed a look of pain, and its huge body was thrown into the air by Merlin's random punch. out.

"Boom".

The huge body of the giant beast fell heavily to the ground. Only then did he see that it was Merlin, the strong man who turned into a beast, but his eyes were full of awe.

No wonder the eldest princess valued Merlin so much. Before, she felt disapproving, but now, Merlin sent him flying with just one punch. If she wanted to kill him, it would be a piece of cake, without any effort at all.

"Who killed the eldest princess?"

Merlin's eyes turned red, no matter whether he was using the eldest princess or the eldest princess was using him, they were indeed temporarily bound together.

And with the support of the eldest princess, he can share the rights of the entire empire. This is the best choice for Merlin who wants to rely on the power of the empire to better understand the world.

But now, the eldest princess died, and Merlin's plan went bankrupt, and the anger in his heart can be imagined.

Seeing Merlin's indifferent eyes, this beast-like strong man was shocked, and said hastily: "It's the Shadow Thorn, he assassinated Her Royal Highness, and the Shadow Thorn, although not the second prince's person, is related to the second prince. There is a close relationship, there is a good chance that this matter is the order of the second prince."

"The second prince?"

Merlin stood up slowly, although his gaze was calm, but the bitter chill emanating from his body made people feel a little shuddering.

"Marquis Leo, you... what are you going to do?"

The all-beast-like strong man seemed to feel fear, and asked in a low voice.

"Of course to kill!"

Merlin turned around and was about to leave when the beast-like powerhouse gritted his teeth and seemed to have made some decision, and said softly, "Marquis Leo, actually...His Royal Highness is not dead!"

"Shua".

Merlin turned around sharply, his gaze was like a blade, fixed on this beastly strong man.
