"Hlukji 'Smier!"
As Roddy recited the incantation to activate the ring, a bright light suddenly shone!
When the light appeared, although the Dukes Of Angmar seemed to be sitting motionless, his palms under the dining table had already clenched into fists. The two Knights beside him had already jumped up and looked at Roddy suspiciously and warily.
From rudely interrupting the Viceroy's words to now, Roddy's behavior was completely baffling. He talked back to Rubens, angered Sally to tears, and now, he even shone this glowing ring in front of him.
Everything he did was so ridiculous that everyone's eyes fell on Roddy. They almost thought he was completely crazy.
But Roddy did not care about the reactions of the people around him. He held the ring in his hand and stared straight at Myr, who had covered her face with her hands because of the light.
One second, two seconds …
After holding the ring for two seconds, Roddy found that Myr did not seem to have any extra reaction. He could not help but wonder if he had made a mistake. But just as he was about to put down his arm and let the light disappear, Myr screamed!
"Something's wrong!"
Roddy saw the cracked and blackened skin on her palm and immediately confirmed her identity. Without any nonsense, he picked up a table knife and jumped over the dining table, heading straight for Myr!
Just like Alpha, although Myr's disguise made her look no different from a human, her skin could not withstand the light. Cracks immediately appeared on her exposed skin after being illuminated by the light. Then, the skin began to curl and fall off. Her fair hands were instantly charred as if they had been roasted by fire.
When all this happened, Duke, the Viceroy, and the two Knights who were still suspicious of Roddy were completely stunned!
At this time, Roddy had already used the "Leap" skill and pounced over. The powerful explosive force displayed by the advanced profession skill was really terrifying. Roddy's body almost flew over the dining table and jumped in front of Myr!
Myr sensed his arrival and stretched out her hand to resist. Her thin arms and legs were much stronger than they looked. When she swung her fist, there was a faint sound of wind. Her other hand pulled out a dagger from the inside of her thigh and stabbed it directly at Roddy!
"Sssss — —"
The dagger pierced through Roddy's armpit. The sharp blade that was originally going to stab his heart only cut through Roddy's coat. Myr's fist was directly slapped away by Roddy.
"Smack!"
Myr watched as Roddy leaned close to her and punched her in the chest.
"Boom!"
This was the first time Roddy, who had the enhancement from his equipment, attacked with all his might on the ground. Although he did not know any fist techniques, the fact that Myr was sent flying three to four meters away and hit the wall proved that he did not need any fancy moves with his level of strength.
Myr, who was sent flying, hit the wall behind her like a cannonball. Then, with a "thud" sound, she fell to the floor pathetically.
At this time, the two Knights at the side had already strode over, but their movements were obviously not as fast as Roddy. He kicked away Myr's outstretched arm, bent over, and punched Myr's face without any fancy moves. The latter's entire head directly hit the floor with a "Boom" sound …
Purplish black blood flowed down from her eye socket, and a rancid smell immediately appeared in the dining room.
If this punch landed on an ordinary maid, her head would have exploded. However, Myr, who also had a base level of 10, only bled. She struggled frantically, and her petite body erupted with astonishing strength. But all her counterattacks were almost useless because of the light from the ring on Roddy's hand.
He brandished the dagger in his hand and stabbed wildly. However, Rody caught it and twisted it. Kacha! The dagger broke on the spot.
Roddy's gaze was completely cold and emotionless. After breaking the other party's wrist like a chopstick, he waved the table knife in his hand like lightning and nailed Myr's arm to the floor from the elbow. This was not the end. He raised his hand to pick up the dagger, bent over, and nailed her other arm with a "Ka" sound …
Titus and Wellington, who had already rushed over, looked at each other in dismay. They really felt that Roddy's move was too cruel … and too swift!
After all this was done, Roddy rode on Myr's struggling body and used a spell to turn off the light. Then, he placed the warm ring directly on her forehead and shouted, "Try moving again!"
After being shouted at, Myr immediately stopped moving. She trembled and did not dare to move again. After the burning pain disappeared, she seemed to have collapsed and stopped struggling. Her gray eyes stared at the ring on her forehead in horror. She opened her mouth, but could not even speak …
Myr's mind was filled with fear. At this moment, her consciousness was completely blank. She never thought that the Scout Captain, who no one paid attention to and even made people laugh at, would have such an ability!
The disguise had failed …
This time she was dead …
When the two iron tower-like knights appeared in her vision, Myr did not even have the intention to struggle … She only saw one of the knights squat down and raise his hand towards her, and then completely lost consciousness.
"Don't kill her, she may know something else."
When Knight Wellington single-handedly lifted Myr up like a sack, Roddy frowned and said. These words were already close to an "order", but Wellington looked at the Dukes Of Angmar and nodded happily. He even showed a smile and whispered, "Well done."
"Hu —"
Roddy was not interested in being polite at this time. After confirming that Myr could not escape, he directly sat on the chair that Sally was sitting on just now and took deep breaths …
Damn it, it's actually the undead, this group of bastards!
Cursing this group of damn bones in his mind, Roddy only felt a little weak. This kind of thing was completely beyond his imagination. Although it was only twenty seconds from the start of the attack to the end, the response, counterattack, and quick thinking decisions were extremely exhausting. He took three to four deep breaths before raising his head. But when he looked to the side again, he found that the Dukes Of Angmar, the Governor, and Knight Titus who stayed here were all looking straight at him. The atmosphere was strangely quiet …
Roddy laughed dryly and pointed to the position where Myr was just now. He wanted to explain something, but felt that it was unnecessary to talk nonsense. He simply picked up the wine glass next to him and drank it clean. Then he said to the Dukes Of Angmar, "Accident … It's all an accident …"
To be honest, at this time, the Dukes Of Angmar and the Governor really did not know what to say. Both of them were smart politicians, and naturally, they immediately understood a fact: this scout captain had definitely made a great contribution!
Who would have thought that the maid standing behind Sally was an undead? Who would have thought that she would have hidden a dagger with her?
Who could be sure … if it was not for Roddy, she would have directly stabbed Sally to death just now?
Not to mention this, if one looked at the long term, if there was such an undead in the Ducal Palace, it would definitely be something that would definitely cause people to feel uneasy. This was especially so for the Dukes Of Angmar. The race of "undead" had become a taboo in his eyes. It could only be described as a "mortal enemy"!
After Alpha died a few days ago, he immediately carried out a fierce and ruthless "investigation". Even so, he did not expect that there would be such an undead lurking around him …
The more he thought about it, the more cold sweat broke out on the Old Duke's back.
He understood that he had once again wandered around the line between life and death. If it was not for Roddy, he was afraid that he would have fallen into the hands of the undead sooner or later!
On the other side of the dining table, the Governor's expression changed several times in succession. At first, it was surprise, followed by amazement, and finally, indescribable shame …
He never thought that the dinner that was supposed to end soon would have such a dramatic turn of events. There were many powerful people in this room, and Rubens had never thought of himself as a "weakling". However, as the Governor of the "Rose Cross" and a user of the Holy Light Theurgy, not only did he not notice the undead spy standing right under his nose, he even looked at the young man who had helped the Ducal Palace avoid a disaster …
How embarrassing!
Now that he thought about it, Rubens could only say that he was too ashamed to show his face …
But no matter how he defended himself, the truth had already been set, and it could not be changed at all.
The atmosphere at the dining table was very quiet. Roddy's gaze swept across, but he felt that these old fellows' gazes were a little strange. He had no choice but to raise the ring in his hand and explain, "Don't look at me like that. I also just noticed that there was something wrong with that fellow. This ring happens to be able to distinguish undead. Just now, I was afraid that she would hurt Sally, so …"
"Captain Roddy …"
At this time, the Old Duke who spoke had already completely affirmed Roddy in his heart. If at first he still had the thought of "considering" Roddy's position, strength, and temperament, then after such a thing happened, Angmar no longer had any doubts.
"Be it before or now, you have helped me twice. I will never forget such a thing." He slowly exhaled, finally letting down his last guard against Roddy in his heart.
The Governor beside him smiled slightly bitterly. From what Angmar said … this Scout Captain Roddy had helped him twice. Since it could be compared to what happened in front of him, it was definitely not a trivial matter. If that was the case, he shouldn't have treated him as an ordinary person from the beginning!
After all, Rubens was shrewd. After thinking for a moment, he came up with a plan. He immediately turned around and bowed slightly to Roddy, saying happily, "Captain Roddy, I apologize for what I said before."
