The cave in the underground sewer had been turned into a crematorium. Thick flames ignited the entire underground cave, turning it into a sea of fire. A large number of figures were constantly twisting in it, screaming and screaming as they perished.
The despairing voice of this monster that had been transformed from a human was even more terrifying and made people tremble all over. Even though the sun was high in the sky, all the City Defense Army soldiers standing nearby felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over their heads in the cold winter. They shivered from head to toe.
Accompanied by the screams of despair, the strong smell of barbecued meat wafted over. It was a very tempting aroma, but at the moment, it made everyone's stomachs churn. It was utterly disgusting.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, there was a violent explosion underground. The violent explosion shook the earth, and the surrounding ground suddenly trembled. Many places near the cave began to collapse. The tremors here were particularly fierce. Many people were caught off guard and were thrown to the ground. The horses were also frightened and neighed.
"What's going on?"
"What's that sound?"
Many people didn't know what to do, and the leading knight was also confused. However, after calming down, he continued to give orders. The ghouls below had been forced into a desperate situation, and it was very likely that they would crawl out from the surrounding exits. When that happened, the soldiers who had been waiting there since early in the morning would completely kill them, not letting a single one of them go.
At this moment, outside the city, warhorses neighed, and cavalry appeared in the distance, accompanied by smoke and dust. They approached the city of Babus in groups of standard armor. In the Kingdom of Mara, apart from the King's Guards, only the wealthy Church of Light could afford to equip such a cavalry. The cost of a complete set of equipment for these 3,000 cavalrymen was not something that a small country could afford.
They lined up in a neat formation, and there was no other noise except for the sound of their footsteps. This kind of uniformity and obedience made the air quiet down.
The City Defense Army on top of the city wall did not sound the alarm. Instead, under the command of a captain, the city gate was opened and the cavalry outside the city was welcomed in.
The commander who replaced Hans on duty and was in charge of assigning tasks was waiting at the city gate. Both sides followed the predetermined signal and allowed the elite knights of the Third Legion of the Church of Light to enter the city. They would assist their temporary alliance against the King's Guards who had been converted into a legion of ghouls.
The middle-aged general was wearing a neat armor that was polished to the point that it could reflect a person's shadow. Looking at the knights that emanated a terrifying and oppressive aura, he could not help but gulp. "Is this the Church's knights?"
The cavalry crossed the Babus Bridge and slowly entered the city. The middle-aged general immediately stepped forward and saluted them. He walked along the city gate toward the outside and greeted them at the bridgehead. "I am the defense commander of the Babus City of the Mara Kingdom …"
Drip!
"Drip! Tick tock!
The middle-aged general suddenly heard a strange noise and looked up to find that the armoured knights of the Church had blood stains on their swords and armors. Fresh blood was dripping onto the ground, and when he looked into their eyes, he immediately realized that they were scarlet eyes that were filled with a beastly desire to devour. It was a gaze that he was very familiar with.
At this moment, the knights of the Church raised their heads, and countless pairs of scarlet eyes stared at him. The middle-aged general suddenly felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He could not help but want to shout and warn the City Defense Army in the city, but it was too late.
A long spear shook like a silver dragon. With the innate ability of the Blood Knights, a huge force pierced through his chest. The coldness gradually eroded his body and those scarlet eyes. The middle-aged general immediately fell into darkness.
The leading Church Knight picked up the corpse with his spear. Blood continued to flow along the handle of the spear and onto his body. It was as if the feeling of being bathed in blood made him feel unexpectedly comfortable. Every cell in his body longed for this taste. The corners of his mouth twitched and he kept giggling. This was a monster through and through, but it was able to pierce through an armored Blood Knight without giving him a chance to react. And there were thousands of such monsters behind him.
The soldiers of the City Defense Army of Babus were all shocked. At this moment, there was a sharp cry from the top of the city wall. "Close the gate! Close the gate! Hurry up and close the gate! We must not let them in! They have all become monsters!"
By this time, it was already too late. A large number of Death Knights had already tilted their heads and were looking into the city. Their horses neighed as they rushed into the city. Wherever they passed, blood splattered everywhere. The city gate was instantly breached, and countless Death Knights rushed into the city. The top of the city wall was immediately breached, and the alarm bell was immediately rung. The urgent sound spread to all parts of Babus.
Inside the palace, Adenos received cheers. A servant handed him the scepter that symbolized the king. This was the last ceremony. As long as Adenos took the scepter, he would truly represent the succession of the old king. He would become the king recognized by the Church of Light and all the nobles of the Kingdom of Mara.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden change. The moment Adenos took the scepter, the young servant immediately stabbed a dagger into Adenos' heart. Most of the nobles present were shocked, while some of them had flashing eyes, as if they had been waiting for this moment to come.
Adonis, clutched his chest and kept retreating, as if he was shocked and in great pain. Finally, the young king collapsed on the throne and stopped breathing.
Everyone looked at the throne in disbelief. Someone immediately pulled out a long sword and shouted angrily, "Kill him! He killed the king! It's him!"
While everyone looked at the assassin, everyone looked angrily at the murderer of the king. At this time, Pete stood up. All of this had been planned long ago, and it was also to test whether Adenos had become a monster. Even if he hadn't, Adenos had an unclear relationship with the monsters and wizards in the city. Pete and the other nobles could not accept such an abandoned child ascending the throne.
"Well, Adenos Monar, you don't have to act anymore. Sure enough, you are no longer a human. You have chosen to fall into hell and become a devil."
Through his divine seed, Pete could clearly feel that Adenos was not dead. Although his physical characteristics were all in the state of a dead person, his mind power blocked Pete's probing. This was something that a living person could not do. To not die after being stabbed in the heart was not something that a human could do. Only wizards could have mind power.
Everyone stopped in their tracks. Most of them had no idea what was going on, nor did they understand what was going on. Adonis,, who was lying on the throne, slowly raised his head and came back to life.
"Oh my god! What the hell is going on? "
"He actually came back to life? What? "
"What the hell is going on?"
The wound on Adonis,'s chest quickly healed. Blood flowed back into the wound, and his skin healed naturally. If it weren't for the tattered clothes, everyone would have thought that everything that had just happened was just an illusion. Adonis, stood up and looked at Pete. "Boring. I wanted to see your farce."
Pete stood in front of Adenos. One of them was sitting on the throne, while the other was sitting below the steps. They stared at each other and said, "Evil wizard, your end has come. We have seen through your devil's behavior. You who sold your soul to the devil, go to hell!"
Adonis, sat on the throne and laughed wildly. His laughter was arrogant and unbridled. His eyes suddenly flashed with a green light, and his skin suddenly turned the color of a dead person's bluish-white.
"Monster, monster!"
"God, what … what the hell is this?"
"The king is a monster! We actually let a monster become our king!"
Suddenly, everyone fell into a panic. Many people kept retreating in fear, curling up at the back. Adonis,'s body had changed into that of a monster. A corpse-like monster with scarlet eyes stood in front of the throne, looking down at everyone from high above.
"Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha! "
Adonis, laughed so hard that his whole body trembled. He laughed so hard that he couldn't stand straight. Then, he suddenly raised his head and tilted his head to look at everyone present.
"That's right, I am a monster.
And all of you must die! "
At this moment, a violent explosion suddenly came from outside, and the ground shook. Immediately after, the urgent alarm bell on the city wall rang, and then the bell of the Central Clock Tower rang. That was the bell that would only be rung in a critical moment of life and death.
