Chapter 569 Sudden Change
"What is your purpose? Who sent you here?"
Claire took a few steps back and shouted angrily at the changeling in the king.
Finally, the guards who realized that something was wrong with the king quickly protected her behind them, pointing their knives and guns at the king one after another.
Jiang Li glanced at her and narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.
"Tch, I didn't expect the plan of the first step to be exposed before it was completed!"
The king looked unhappy, but soon sneered again.
"But I am using the body of your king now, do you dare to mess with me?"
He had a proud expression on his face.
"Tie up the father!"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness!"
"Eh?!"
Alice shouted, and immediately the responders gathered, all took out the ropes and rushed towards the king.
"Wait a minute, don't come here!"
The king was dumbfounded, and quickly raised his fist as a threat, but was quickly overwhelmed by the crowd, and was soon tied up by the rope.
He really didn't understand why the princess of a country would have such a high prestige, if she said to tie the king, she would tie the king?
Is this not right?
But he quickly calmed down again, and the corner of his mouth raised.
"You may think you have won, but the real battle—"
At this moment, dense white light suddenly emerged again, covering the king's body.
"It hasn't started yet!"
Claire, who was hiding in the corner, paused first, then shouted angrily.
Uncharacteristically, she jumped out without any response from the guards.
Then he rushed directly towards a certain figure!
"Oops, it's time to exchange!"
The little princess quickly understood the situation, and her expression changed immediately.
"Brother Li, be careful!"
Claire's target is Jiang Li!
On her right hand, she still wears the sapphire necklace, with a vicious smile on her face!
All attention was drawn to the king.
However, without the approval of the necklace itself, there is a time limit for the exchange of the body-changing necklace, and it can only be exchanged for a few minutes at most.
Once the time limit is up, the exchange ends and the souls return to their respective bodies.
But at this time, you can use the second exchange!
"Although many steps have been crossed, since I can directly align with the planned goal, it saves me a lot of effort!"
The phantom has a ferocious expression.
This boy is the target of this plan!
Originally, he should have exchanged with the king first, quietly becoming the king of the ancient kingdom of Belzer, mastering the country's political power, and then going through many steps before aiming at the adventurer named Nanxiang.
The reason why he turned into a demon king and announced his eyes on the princess in a high-profile manner is to arouse human hostility towards the new demon king on the one hand, and to divert attention on the other hand. When people thought his goal was the princess, he suddenly turned to the king Do it, the king is of course hard to guard against!
But I didn't expect the first step of the plan to go wrong!
But since the target appears directly in front of his eyes, there is no need to stick to other steps!
Just aim at the target yourself!
"bump!"
suddenly.
When he made the decision in his brain to commit suicide quickly after the exchange, his vision suddenly turned around.
"Ugh!"
A sharp pain came from his body, and he couldn't help but let out a scream.
what happened?
He raised his head in bewilderment.
At some point, his imitated Claire was already lying on the ground.
The body was severed at the waist, and the section around the waist was pitch black, with no trace of blood flowing.
The boy he had targeted was looking down at him at the moment, holding the sword he swung earlier in his hand.
That sword is a magic sword, enough to be regarded as the national treasure of a country, and it can cause huge damage even to monsters that are almost immune to physical attacks like the phantom!
"……what happened?"
Totally incomprehensible.
He was cut in half?
when? How did you do it?
Isn't this guy a mage?
Why is swordplay so powerful?
I didn't see it clearly at all. Hey, he's a high-level demon!
"Really, this is the reason why the plan is so complicated, because once it is directly aimed at him, it will end like this!"
He suddenly understood.
Before, he felt that the plan was so erratic, and he was very impatient.
Thinking about it now, it really makes sense!
If the enemy can be defeated simply, who the hell is willing to make such a complicated plan?
"It's so powerful, it can be killed instantly with one blow, as expected of Brother Li!"
Princess Alice immediately cast longing eyes.
"But why use a sword..."
"Hey, I've recovered, untie me quickly!"
The king yelled over there.
"Chila!"
Jiang Li slashed down with his sword, directly cutting off the right hand of the phantom monster.
The necklace on his right hand flew out, Jiang Li grabbed it and put it in his pocket naturally.
"Catch him, and then torture him for his purpose. Remember to use special handcuffs."
Jiang Li said to the guard next to him.
"Ah, yes! Come on, get the Mithril handcuffs here quickly! No, just take a whole set to prevent accidents!"
"Is this over?"
"As expected of a black-haired adventurer!"
"Go and find the real Miss Clare!"
The tense atmosphere immediately relaxed, the guards cast admiring glances, and the king was also untied.
"Heh, heh heh..."
But at this moment, the changeling monster lying on the ground laughed lowly.
"why are you laughing?"
Jiang Li lowered his head, his eyes fixed on him tightly.
"I admit that I lost this time, but you'd better not be too complacent, new devil!"
The people next to him were immersed in the aftermath and didn't notice it.
But Jiang Li's expression turned cold, and he stabbed out with a sword, piercing his heart in an instant!
Although the changeling is a shadow without a body, it has a core, and as long as the core is broken, it can be killed.
His body structure is indeed a perfect copy of a human being, but Jiang Li's eyes have already seen through his core.
"Well……!"
The phantom snorted.
"Haha, we still have a chance to meet... I hope you can live until then!"
He sneered at Jiang Li, and then died suddenly.
The body also turned into a puddle of liquid that had lost its activity, as dark as crude oil that had just been dug out.
But in the black liquid, there was a colorful crystal ball falling out.
"core?"
Jiang Li's gaze was fixed, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart.
With a "click", a crack appeared on the crystal, and then the crack quickly spread across the entire spherical surface.
The pitch-black mist surged out of the crystal ball in an instant, like thick smoke after an explosion, and rushed in all directions, enveloping the startled-looking king, Alice, guards, Yamada and others.
In just a few seconds, the black mist has covered the entire palace!
