Chapter 995, Assassinating the Ninth Prince and Taking Control of the Castle of Thorns
Inside the Castle of Throne of Thorns.
"Nero!"
"The Iron Guard's life cannot be used like this."
"Even dead soldiers should be used in more useful ways."
Miller said with a frown.
But as the younger brother, Nero grinned and said.
"Brother, there are also disloyal people in the Iron Guard!"
"It would be more beneficial for us to clear them out in advance!"
Miller shook his head.
"A king shouldn't just kill."
"More often, you have to learn to compromise."
"Nero, we must win over the neutrals!"
“Only by making more people our allies can we win!”
Nero shrugged.
"Brother, that's what you have to do."
Although Miller knew what his brother was.
But still very angry.
See Miller's look.
Nero could only wave his hands.
"I know, I know."
"Dear brother."
"That's not the only reason I'm doing this."
"There are not many dead soldiers under Lao Liu's command."
"The king is in our hands, and I tell them to die by the king's command. They must listen to us."
"But Lao Liu is different."
"Although the magic crystal warriors are not much different from us."
"But they are not dead soldiers."
“It’s okay to go shopping on the first day.”
"But there's no way they can survive the next day."
"I'm sure they won't be able to withstand the martial arts competition tomorrow morning."
"Everyone will see then, who is the most powerful person in the capital?"
Miller frowned.
"Nero, the bloody battle on the first day has proven that the Sixth Prince has the strength to fight against you."
"Refuse to fight in bloody combat the next day."
"It won't give you any more advantages!"
"The Iron Guard's life cannot be wasted like this."
"I want you to stop being stupid."
Compared to his younger brother.
Miller knew more about the importance of the Iron Guard.
It's not worth wasting the Iron Guard's life in vain because of this kind of grudge match.
"snort!"
The Ninth Prince responded dissatisfiedly.
"elder brother."
"You have more important things to do."
"You must guarantee the safety of the Iron Guard Commander."
"He died outside, which was a devastating blow to us!"
"You don't need to worry about the tourney."
"The commander-in-chief's safety requires your protection even more."
Miller was slightly startled.
His brother's words made him furious.
Just when he was about to reprimand Nero.
The glances of the iron guards around him made Miller feel cold.
"Nero has actually completely controlled the Iron Guard."
"Okay, okay."
"As expected of my good brother."
Miller was not surprised but delighted with Nero's performance.
"Brother, you can rest assured."
Miller stopped talking nonsense and turned around to leave Thorn Castle.
And after he left.
Behind Nero, a fully armored iron guard appeared.
This is the deputy commander of the Iron Guard.
No one knows that he is already legendary.
Nero promised him a higher title.
Lord Prince!
This is why the deputy commander is willing to support him unconditionally.
"Jem!"
"Tomorrow morning, we will continue to invite you to fight."
"If Lao Liu doesn't dare to fight."
"Then assassinate the nobles loyal to him in the royal capital."
"I want to see how long he can hold on?"
Nero's various actions were aimed at forcing the Sixth Prince to take action.
Create chaos in the capital.
Then he led his troops to massacre the royal capital.
No one would know that behind Nero was the power of the evil god.
God of Red Flame!
This god finally came with Fang Yuan.
Never showed up.
In addition to using all his divine power to transform the dragon knight.
The most critical step is to create a puppet who is loyal to yourself.
For this reason, the Red Flame God consumes a lot of divine power.
The god-level scroll-puppet power was manifested.
Able to control seven puppet targets for his own use.
And it won't be discovered.
The Ninth Prince is the puppet he controls in the Alpha Kingdom.
besides.
The other six kings' capitals all have puppets controlled by the Ninth Prince.
The purpose of the Red Flame God in doing this is to control the royal family of every secret kingdom.
Wait until Fang Yuan is solved.
By then!
Take advantage of the hidden hand lying in wait.
By the way, the evil god will also be dealt with.
This is the ultimate goal of the Red Flame God.
In this secret realm, one game determines the outcome!
The deputy commander of the Iron Guard behind the Ninth Prince can be bribed.
The Chamber of Commerce of the Red Flame God provided huge help.
To the order from the Ninth Prince.
The deputy commander of the Iron Guard gave unconditional support.
"Don't worry, Your Excellency."
"Everything has been arranged."
"Tomorrow morning, I have plenty of ways to force the Sixth Prince to end."
"I can defeat him in the martial arts arena."
"This is a rare opportunity."
The deputy commander of the Iron Guard grinned.
"Jem."
"The old king still has some with him."
"Just send them."
The deputy commander of the Iron Guard hesitated.
"What, you can't do it?"
"No, the king also has a deputy commander."
"I can't direct it."
"Unless the king can wake up and let them compete."
Nero pinched the alchemy potion on his body.
"never mind."
"There are only so many times you can wake up."
"If it happens a few more times, he will die early."
And just then.
There was a sound outside.
"Your Mightiness."
"Efron, the earl and nobleman from the border, asks for an audience."
Hear the name.
The Ninth Prince was stunned for a moment.
"who?"
"Efron, never heard of it!"
"Leave the nobles who have taken refuge in me to my brother!"
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"But this nobleman named Efron said that he just met the sixth prince."
"The other party promised a duke's title in exchange for the information in his hand."
As soon as these words came out.
It immediately aroused the interest of the Ninth Prince.
"The title of Duke!"
"What news did he say?"
"No, the other party asked to see you before telling you!"
The commander of the Iron Guard beside him heard this and said.
"Is he an assassin?"
"The assassins I met before always said this."
The Ninth Prince sneered.
"Earl of the Border."
"This is a fiefdom of real power."
"No matter how powerful Lao Liu is."
"It's absolutely impossible to send a fiefdom count here to be a dead soldier."
"If he had this strength, we wouldn't have to fight."
"Should be a speculative noble."
"Come here, bring me here to meet you."
"Qingfeng."
"The ninth prince is different from the sixth prince."
"Entering Thorn Castle, you are responsible for taking care of the iron guards around you."
"Guderian, you come to complete the plunder of royal power."
"Christian."
"You keep me safe."
This time, Fang Yuan brought three heroes.
While protecting yourself, you must also control the Ninth Prince as quickly as possible.
As for whether it will be exposed.
Just an assassination.
He didn’t say he wanted to succeed.
Besides, the ninth prince is different from the sixth prince.
The Ninth Prince is in the Castle of Thorns.
Kill all the guarding iron guards and you will succeed.
When Fang Yuan arrived at Thorn Castle.
News soon came from inside.
"Your Mightiness."
"Please come in!"
"But your guard!"
The two hundred knights behind him were stopped.
Fang Yuan had no intention of taking them in.
"I need protection."
"They followed me in."
Guderian and Christian followed.
Just two, Tiewei didn't insist.
Soon they appeared in front of the Ninth Prince.
And just when they saw each other.
There was a trace of suspicion on the Ninth Prince's face.
"This person!"
"It looks like the one the God is looking for!"
And when Fang Yuan saw the other party.
There was a vague sense of crisis in my heart.
"Do it!"
Fang Yuan didn't hesitate at all.
Qingfeng, who was hiding in the dark, was the first to take action.
The dagger pierced the Iron Guard Commander's neck.
This legendary master.
He died before he could even let out a scream.
At the same time, Guderian jumped up.
The Spear of Gondor in his hand thrust out.
It pierced through the iron guards protecting the left and right sides.
Then he appeared on the side of the Ninth Prince.
"The plunder of royal power!"
A majestic power enveloped the Ninth Prince.
And this scene was completed in the blink of an eye.
Wait until the other Iron Guards react.
The Ninth Prince has been controlled.
The remaining Iron Guards saw this.
There was a roar.
"Let go of the Ninth Prince."
"thorn~"
The one who was about to shout for help was directly pierced by a gun.
Christian takes action.
The spear transformed from the light elf accurately killed the iron guard who was trying to shout.
"Don't move!"
"You will die if you move!"
Christian held a spear in his hand and swept the whole place with a stern gaze.
The Iron Guards were intimidated by his momentum.
The long sword was half drawn, but he didn't dare to move at all.
And this time.
Guderian, who controlled the Ninth Prince and was using his royal power to plunder, suddenly frowned.
The royal power plundering skills were violently withdrawn.
At the same time, the Ninth Prince's body flashed with seven-colored light.
"This is!"
"God level!"
"Wait a minute, you're not the Ninth Prince!"
Guderian exclaimed.
"Who are you?"
"I am Ninth Prince Nero."
"Iron Guard!"
"Protect me!"
Nero, realizing that he was fine, immediately started shouting.
"Control him!"
Fang Yuan gave the order decisively.
Guderian shot Nero unconscious.
"I'll tell you why I feel that way."
"It turns out to be a puppet controlled by the evil god."
Fang Yuan was much calmer at this time.
His eyes fell on the Ninth Prince.
Then he said to the iron guard beside him.
"I am Efron, Count of the Borders."
"This is my noble crest."
"Maybe you don't know my name."
“But you’ve probably heard of the name Moulin Rouge.”
After hearing this, the iron guards showed surprise in their eyes.
Compared to others, the Iron Guard who followed the king obviously knew more information.
The war with the orcs on the frontier.
They had heard the name Count of Moulin Rouge many times around the king.
Knowing that this is a newly rising force on the border.
Before the king was completely controlled.
I thought about sending Efron back to the royal capital.
Conquer him for your own use.
pity!
It's all a little late.
As for this information, Heidi told Fang Yuan after inquiring about it.
After seeing the looks on the Iron Guards' faces.
Fang Yuan's heart moved slightly.
A new plan immediately emerged.
"The king once sent an envoy to contact me."
"Summon me back to the capital."
"In the secret letter, the king said that there was something abnormal about the ninth prince."
"It seems to be related to the evil god."
"But the border war had not yet calmed down at that time."
"So it was delayed for a while."
"I just didn't expect it until I returned."
"The situation has reached this point."
"And the Ninth Prince is really the puppet of the evil god."
"Did you see the seven-colored light on him?"
"That is the divine power that belongs only to the evil god!"
"I think you are the Iron Guards and should know this."
Fang Yuan's words were half true and half false.
Even though the Iron Guards had some doubts.
But it feels very real.
"That's why Your Excellency the Earl entered the royal capital this time."
"Just to test?"
Fang Yuan nodded.
"I just didn't expect him to reveal his secrets so quickly."
Then another Iron Guard asked.
"Your Majesty the Earl."
"You said the king gave the order."
"Then can you show us."
"After all, we follow the king around and have never heard of this."
Fang Yuan glanced at it.
While thinking about whether to kill this talkative guy.
A figure walked in from outside.
"I am the king's messenger."
"Ordered to head to the border."
"Except against the orcs."
"The other thing is to deliver secret orders to the Count of Moulin Rouge."
"Although the Count of Moulin Rouge was only a baron at that time, his achievements had already been known to the king."
"I can vouch for Efron!"
at this time.
Guderian sensed Crowe and decisively ordered him to appear.
Croburn has been sent to the border in the past.
He is also the country’s chief alchemist.
With his evidence, what Fang Yuan just said becomes even more true.
At this time, the iron guards took out half of their swords.
Start to slowly withdraw.
In the Alpha Kingdom after all.
Hate the gods above all else.
The remaining centurions of the Iron Guard stood up at this time.
"Your Mightiness."
"Then the Ninth Prince should be handed over to the Noble Council for disposal."
to this suggestion.
Fang Yuan refused.
The nobles who had fornicated with the evil god were handed over to the noble assembly for trial.
This is in accordance with the laws of the kingdom.
Especially the ninth prince’s noble status.
No force is qualified to deal with him.
Only through the Parliament of Nobles.
By doing this, you can also get huge benefits.
As the nobleman who was the first to expose and capture the Ninth Prince.
The noble council will give generous rewards.
Especially at the most critical moment of the fight for the crown prince.
Helped the opponent kill the strongest one.
The new king takes the throne and is definitely the most powerful duke in the kingdom.
But by doing so, Fang Yuan himself will be exposed.
At that time, the remaining six countries will launch an attack under the control of the evil god.
Lilith's potion hasn't been made yet.
The whole situation will develop in an unfavorable direction.
Therefore, it is impossible for Fang Yuan to reveal his identity at present.
"Not yet."
Fang Yuan looked at the Iron Guard Centurion and said.
"In the fight for the crown prince, there is more than one supporter of the evil god."
"I must find them one by one in order to live up to the king's trust."
These words made the Iron Guards feel a hint of admiration in their hearts.
They were originally loyal to the king.
It's just that the king is controlled and they can only obey the orders of the Ninth Prince.
This was a flaw in Iron Guard that no one had noticed before.
It was only now discovered that it was fatal.
Now that Fang Yuan appeared, he not only captured the Ninth Prince.
They no longer need to be controlled by others.
Moreover, Fang Yuan, like them, is a noble who is loyal to the king.
This made the Iron Guards very fond of Fang Yuan.
"Your Mightiness."
"What do you want us to do?"
Fang Yuan looked at Crowe.
"Is it possible for the king to wake up?"
"No, after being poisoned by alchemical poison, every time you wake up, you are one step closer to death."
Fang Yuan looked at Tie Wei.
"We still need the king, so we can't wake him up yet."
"At this time."
"Everyone, please obey my orders."
Tiewei clasped his fists.
"I will obey your orders."
"good."
"Crow, take people to control the Alchemy Association first."
"yes!"
"Christian, take our knights and take over Thorn Castle immediately."
"Calling all Iron Guard Centurion officers, I want their support."
"Guderian."
"Inform your knights to enter the city immediately."
"Get ready to attack Prince Miller!"
Order after order.
Fang Yuan's legions filed into Thorn Castle.
The center of Alpha Kingdom was so easily controlled by Fang Yuan.
Then in the presence of the Centurion.
Fang Yuan showed the power of the evil god in the Ninth Prince.
The iron guards all fell towards Fang Yuan.
Just when he was about to give the order to kill Prince Miller.
Suddenly!
There was a fire outside.
An iron guard rushed in.
"Sir!"
"The outer city. The outer city is in rebellion!!!" (End of this chapter)
