Chapter 260 The White Eagle that Brings Light

"Ho ho."

Royal Castle Roald, the king's palace.

A low roar echoed in the palace, and heavy footsteps occasionally sounded.

There is no servant in the huge palace. This is not because people are leaving their posts without authorization, but because of the order of King Ainz III.

A black shadow wandered in the palace, his limbs stretched unnaturally, and the hair all over his body came out from under his pajamas. His face with faint beast features was baring fangs, and his sticky saliva was downwards. dripping.

If there were still people here today, they would probably be killed by this humanoid beast. Fortunately, the smart people ran away long ago.

But there are always dull people who will not regret it until danger comes.

"call"

A maid was hiding in a dark closet, covering her mouth tightly, and quietly checking the outside world through the gap in the closet door with tearful eyes.

A roar that sounded like a human or an animal echoed in the outside world. It was clear that the sound was approaching, but the terrifying figure could not be seen. This was the most tortured thing.

The maid didn't dare to express her anger. At this moment, footsteps suddenly approached, and she was so frightened that she quickly closed the cupboard door.

"Dang!" The wooden door made a slight collision sound, which was particularly obvious in this silent palace, and her breathing stopped for a moment.

The sounds outside disappeared.

Difficult, can you say.

Her tears could no longer be suppressed, and her intense panic nearly drove her crazy. After the roar disappeared for nearly a few minutes, she boldly pushed open a gap.

It was empty outside, nothing.

The next classic operation should be to push the door out, she thought so, but her legs were already weak and she couldn't move at all, so she had no choice but to close the cabinet door again and continue hiding.

The moment she closed the cabinet door——

"Ah, get out of here!"

A chaotic roar suddenly sounded above the closet, the thick and heavy cabinet door shook violently, and the maid screamed in fright.

The hairy claws swung downwards randomly, sticky saliva flowed down like a waterfall, and roars and screams were mixed. If nothing else happened, the screams would soon stop, and the only sound left would be the sound of tearing flesh and blood. .

The maid saw the whole beast in despair, its glowing blood-red eyes penetrated deeply into her heart, and its claws stretched out to her chest!

"Your Majesty the King, you look in good spirits today."

A gentle voice came, and the beast's movements paused, and a humanized doubt appeared on his face.

The maid and the beast looked at the source of the sound, but met a smile.

He was a young man with a tall and straight body. His long, bright silver hair still shone brightly in the dim palace. His face was impeccable. No matter who he was, he would be fascinated by such a handsome and androgynous face.

The most impressive thing is that pair of eyes.

The sapphire-like eyes are like a lake reflecting the blue sky. If you look at it one more time, you will be dragged into it.

He wore luxurious clothes, but did not bear any emblem of a noble family. The only thing that was identifiable was the embroidered white eagle on his chest.

The maid said in surprise: "Lord Eliphis!"

Eliphis responded to her with a reassuring smile, then bowed to the beast in a "please" gesture and said:

"Your Majesty, you are very tired and it's time to rest."

Ainz III nodded suddenly and walked towards the bed. With every step, the hair on his body fell off one after another. By the time he was lying on the bed, Ainz III had transformed back into a real human being. It is somewhat similar to the portraits hanging in the palace.

The only difference is that in the portrait, he is wise and powerful, exuding the power of keeping strangers away, but now the person shivering on the bed is just an old man with empty eyes.

Eliphis watched Ainz III rest, and then turned to look at the maid, with a friendly smile still on his face.

"Thank you, Lord Eliphis." The maid stammered, her face flushed, and she couldn't help but twist her body.

Eliphis's eyes were gentler, his slender fingers gently poked the maid's forehead, and whispered:

"Be smarter next time."

"Alas!"

The maid's body was already paralyzed by this brief moment of contact. She looked at Eliphis's leaving figure, her body trembled, she couldn't help but moan, and in the end she even fainted.

At the last second when she passed out, she thought:

The white eagle that brings dawn to the kingdom.

A general who is victorious in every battle.

The legendary leader of the Light Eagle Regiment.

Lord Eliphes is so handsome!

The door to the bedroom was closed, blocking out all prying eyes.

Eliphis sat beside the bed, pushed a red blood healing potion into Ainz III's body, and whispered in his ear: "Wake up."

Not long after, Ainz III's eyelids moved slightly, and he actually opened his eyes. He let out an indistinct groan, and after a while he said:

"Sir Eliphis, are you here?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I'm here to visit you."

Ainz III forced a smile, "I can see you every time I wake up, it's really reassuring."

"I'm always here, Your Majesty."

"Yes, you will always be by my side when I encounter difficulties, when I have conflicts with the warrior country, when I deal with barbarian invasions, and ahem."

Eliphis took out a glass of warm water from somewhere and served Ainz III to drink it. The latter coughed for a while and then said:

"Have you found my wandering heir that you mentioned last time?"

"It has been confirmed that everyone from the Light Eagle Group is escorting her back. You will see the princess soon."

"Princess!"

Ainz III's tone was somewhat emotional. He suddenly grabbed Eliphis' wrist tightly and said:

"She will become the queen of this country. Please help the future queen like you helped me!"

Eliphis lowered his eyes and swept across Ainz III's hopeful eyes and dry body. A charming smile appeared on his face again.

"I will definitely do it, Your Majesty."

"Swear!"

Eliphis put his hand on his chest and said solemnly:

"I swear, I, Eliphis, will do my best to protect the Kingdom of Anor, protect the queen, and protect."

Before he finished speaking, Ainz III had already fallen asleep. Just speaking a few words while awake exhausted his physical strength.

"Protect 'my' country."

White Eagle said the last sentence, and the confidence of a winner appeared in his eyes.

He pushed another blood-healing potion into the king's body, covered him with a blanket, tidied his appearance, and then turned and left.

Reading the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_bar published this novel for the first time.

Walking out of the palace, the anxious ministers were waiting outside, and he just nodded, and these people breathed a sigh of relief and came over to praise him.

"You are worthy of being Lord Eliphis, worthy of being the king's most trusted person."

"Only you can relieve the king's illness, you are really a savior sent by God."

"It's just that I happen to have this talent." Eliphis responded to the ministers' flattery calmly. He was already familiar with dealing with such things.

It was not until everyone had exchanged greetings that a captain of the Light Eagle Group came over with a white horse.

"Captain, there is new news [over there]."

Eliphis looked normal, and while greeting people in the distance, he said, "Don't pay attention to it."

"But."

"They are just pedals, and no one will ever listen to the pedals' requests."

Eliphis got on his horse, looked at the setting sun, and said:

"Compared to them, I am more concerned about the underground city found near the base."

"But it has not been opened until now."

"I have a feeling that it will open soon." Eliphis's blue eyes sparkled.

"I had a dream, and there in the dream was what I needed."

————————————

The Lord's room in the Sean Underground City.

Gong Qiying is reading the letter sent from the Unicorn Underground City.

[Three days later, the Burning Demon Crusade will officially begin. You will receive an invitation from the dungeon at that time. Just choose to accept it]

[Also here is the relevant information about the Burning Demon]

"It actually started so soon this time."

Gong Qiying said to himself: "Last time, there was a long period of time between the start and the end of the death battle, and a lot of things happened."

He began to read the information sent by the Unicorn Dungeon. How could they get the information about the sealed object? What exactly was sealed in the Sean Dungeon? He asked many dungeons about this matter, but he still knew nothing. The question always existed.

"The Burning Demon is said to be a creature from hell, blessed by an unknown god. It is not afraid of high temperatures, has a strong physique and tenacious vitality, can quickly adapt to the environment and evolve continuously, and reproduces very quickly. When conditions permit, even broken limbs can be reborn as new individuals."

"The most important point is that they are burning with a flame that never goes out. Once touched by this flame, they will never go out before burning the enemy to ashes."

"It once caused half of the continent to burn, and was later sealed in the Eagle City Underground City."

Gong Qiying pondered for a moment and said:

"It looks like a fusion of the Hulk, Wolverine and Flame Fist, but its recovery ability should not be as good as Wolverine's."

After reading the entire piece of information, it is estimated that the most important thing to pay attention to is the "never-extinguished flame". I wonder if a legendary fire-fighting technique can extinguish it.

But according to the introduction, they burned half of the continent, I am afraid that this flame is really a bit evil.

So how powerful are these flames? If it is just an ordinary flame, Gong Qiying can stand still and let it burn for a few days. If it is like a crazy fire.

It is impossible to think about it, otherwise the burning demons would have destroyed the world now.

But when it comes to fighting "demons", there should be no one more suitable than King Gwyn's subordinates - the Black Knight.

The two princes of Lothric seem to be good, but.

The letter from the Unicorn Dungeon also mentioned that the Red Fang Dungeon, as the leader of the crusade, has the ability to deal with fire, and his monsters will be the main force.

As for Gong Qiying and the other invited dungeons, they are just a bonus, and they are the objects that the Red Fang Dungeon wants to get to know and show off their muscles.

The Unicorn Dungeon also specifically told him that everyone - that is, the dungeons invited to participate in the crusade except the Red Fang Dungeon unanimously decided to keep a low profile.

Since it is a personal show of the Red Fang Dungeon, then it is not suitable for him, the Sion Dungeon, to be in the limelight. It is not good to steal the highlight moments of others, in case he is resented.

Besides, it might not be a good idea to be too strong in front of other city lords.

Gong Qiying lay down on the altar, looking at the ceiling, and said to himself:

"Then I'll be a green foil this time."

Not green leaves.
