Looking at the rubble on the ground, Marquis Menham's face twitched slightly.
He suddenly understood that the phrase "obliterated" wasn't an exaggeration …
"Cough, cough. Collect Mr. Keye's corpse and bury it."
"Yes."
Then Marquis Menham turned to look at Marquis Dawson and asked seriously, "What do we do next? What do you think? "
Marquis Dawson shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Mr. Keye is dead, so there's no need to attack Winter Castle."
Indeed, the Dwarves attacked Winter Castle with the hope of pushing Mr. Keye to the position of Dukes Of The North so that the Dwarves could establish their Kingdom on the Northern Frontier.
But now, Mr. Keye was obliterated, so there was no need to attack.
Even if they conquered Winter Castle, would the Dwarves dare to occupy the position of Lord of the Northern Frontier?
Marquis Menham sighed and looked worried as he asked, "What about the establishment of the Kingdom?"
"The establishment of the Kingdom can be discussed with the House of Saint Hilde," Marquis Dawson said in a deep voice, but his tone was lacking in confidence.
"Will Saint Hilde … agree?" Marquis Menham stroked his beard and looked anxious.
"We have to try." Marquis Dawson wasn't confident either. "Yes, weren't you discussing with the Dungeon Lords of the Northern Frontier about the relocation of their territories? How many families agreed? "
"Besides the Angele family, almost all of them agreed. The situation at the Northern Frontier was deteriorating, and these families were eager to escape. "
"That's much easier." Marquis Dawson became excited again. "You can continue with the relocation of territories. As for the Angele family, if they don't agree, don't force them. You can find other nearby families. In short, the Menham family will move to the Northern Frontier.
Then, we'll join forces and use peace talks to force the House of Saint Hilde to agree to the establishment of the Kingdom.
If that doesn't work, we can ask Emperor Reinhardt for help. Didn't Emperor Reinhardt promise you? "
Marquis Menham pondered for a long time before he finally made up his mind. "Alright, let's test the House of Saint Hilde's attitude."
With that, he beckoned to a young dwarf beside him. "Anka, go to Winter City and see what's going on there."
"Yes, father."
…
Huayu City.
Wind and clouds suddenly surged in the sky above the Phoenix-Butterfly Castle. Then, a huge green eye suddenly appeared in the clouds.
He suddenly opened his eyes.
Time seemed to have stopped for a second before everything returned to normal.
Everyone from the Phoenix-Butterfly Castle raised their heads in a daze, yet they couldn't see anything unusual. It was as if the pressure that caused one's heart to palpitate was just an illusion.
"Father! That was … "
Count Morrison ran into the room sweating profusely, his words full of unconcealable panic.
Knight Franco was sitting in a wheelchair, quietly looking at the sea of tulips outside the window, lost in thought.
Seeing that Franco did not respond, Count Morrison whispered again, "Father?"
After a long time, Franco opened his mouth and said, "Don't ask too much about things that you can't understand or grasp."
Count Morrison could only nod and suppress the doubts in his heart.
Franco stopped talking and looked deeply in the direction of the bell tower in the distance.
At the top of the bell tower, the ancient bell that had experienced a hundred years of wind and rain, had unknowingly stopped turning.
…
In the cave below the bell tower.
A figure wearing a red mage robe was standing beside the blood pool.
His body was rather large, but he had a severe hunchback. His limbs were also abnormally thick. His face was rough, his cheekbones protruding, his mouth was crooked, and his eyes were one big and one small. He looked very ugly.
However, this malformed red-robed mage was currently emitting a terrifying aura that caused one's heart to palpitate.
Low murmurs that sounded like sleep talk constantly came from the red-robed mage's mouth.
The voice seemed to get louder and louder, causing the entire underground cave to shake.
Ripples spread out from the center of the blood pool, stirring along with the red-robed mage's hand gestures.
The fine ripples gradually became violent, and finally, they set off waves of blood.
In the spiderweb above the blood pool, the living people in the "cocoons" seemed to have been stimulated by something, and immediately began to struggle madly.
Boom!
The waves of blood surged and engulfed the spiderweb.
When the blood pool regained its tranquility, the "cocoons" were all empty, and the living people inside had completely disappeared.
The red-robed mage stopped casting and stared fixedly at the center of the blood pool, as if waiting for something to appear there.
After an unknown amount of time, a figure slowly emerged from the blood pool.
When the viscous blood slowly slid down, the face of the figure could finally be seen clearly.
It was the Duke Of St. Hilde!
The Duke Of St. Hilde, who had been petrified, actually recovered from his petrified state at this moment.
Then, he opened his eyes.
For a moment, it was as if lightning flashed in the cave, and it was as if a red sun had fallen into it. The red-robed mage seemed to be unable to bear the light and had no choice but to close his eyes.
"Hahaha! We did it, we did it! Hahaha … "
The red-robed mage laughed loudly. He was extremely excited, and even a little deranged.
He let out an incomprehensible roar from his mouth, and waved his arms and legs wildly, venting the joy in his heart.
After a moment, the light dissipated.
The red-robed mage also gradually recovered from his madness. He opened his eyes again, and revealed an ugly smile to the "Duke Of St. Hilde" who had come back from the dead.
"Mister Chi, we did it!"
The "Duke Of St. Hilde" also revealed a smile, and said, "Horus, we did it."
His smile was a little strange, as if he was still unable to perfectly control the muscles on his face, and his speech was not very clear.
However, this scene made one's hair stand on end.
Mister Chi, who should have been killed by Prince Lehi, had instead used the corpse of the Duke Of St. Hilde to come back from the dead!
"How does the Holy Knight's body feel?" The red-robed mage, Horus, asked anxiously. He looked at the body of the Duke Of St. Hilde, his eyes full of envy.
The Duke Of St. Hilde, no, it should be Mister Chi, stretched this body. He faced the sky, took a deep breath, and closed his eyes in enjoyment.
He said with a satisfied expression, "As expected of the strongest individual of the human race — the Holy Knight. I can feel that this body is filled with explosive power!
Moreover, this is the feeling of breaking free from the shackles! "
Then, Mister Chi raised his right hand, and a red light flashed in his eyes. He did not seem to be chanting any spells, but a ball of purple fire rose from his hand.
The purple fire danced continuously, and a boundless pressure filled the underground cavern. Even the blood pool became turbulent once again.
"Hey! Be careful, don't collapse this place! "Horus shouted loudly.
Then, he pointed at Mister Chi's body, and reminded him, "Don't collapse this Holy Knight's body, which was obtained with great difficulty."
Mister Chi retracted his spell and looked down.
He saw that there were small cracks on his new body, and golden blood was seeping out from them. It was a horrifying sight.
But the most horrifying thing was the terrifying scar on the Duke Of St. Hilde's chest that almost split him in two.
Mister Chi knew that this was the wound that the Holy Knight of the Troll Empire, Prince Otto, had left on the Duke Of St. Hilde.
After this torment, this wound had become even more serious, as if it would completely collapse in the next moment.
Mister Chi smiled faintly, and did not panic, "It seems that the first thing we need to do is to repair this body."
Horus stroked his chin and frowned, "This is really troublesome. It will require a lot of precious materials, and it will probably take two to three years."
Mister Chi was not in a hurry. He smiled and said, "Then let's take it slow."
"Take it slow?" Horus said in surprise, "After two to three years, who knows what the Northern Frontier will be like. Your House of St. Theon has planned for so long, and you're giving up just like that?"
Mister Chi chuckled and shook his head, "When I sacrificed the entire Fallen Eagle City, I was already destined to have no fate with the Dukes Of The North.
The people of the Northern Frontier will never accept a demon, a madman, as their ruler. "
Horus seemed to have understood something and said, "So, this resurrection plan was not your last resort at all. Instead, it was your real goal from the very beginning!"
Mister Chi nodded, "That's right. From the beginning, I did not expect to use this method to seize the Northern Frontier. The House of St. Theon has been in exile for more than three hundred years. Without their own army and vassal knights, they would not be able to secure their position as the ruler of the Northern Frontier.
So, my true goal has always been this Holy Knight's body!
Only by occupying this body can I break through the limits of the Saint-realm! "
Horus's expression changed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid that something will go wrong with the forbidden spell you developed? I admit that 'Trial's Eye' and 'Final Judgement', these two interrelated forbidden spells, are indeed genius ideas!
However, they are new forbidden spells that have just been developed. If something goes wrong, won't you … "
Mister Chi looked indifferent, and said faintly, "If I don't even dare to take this risk, how can I resist the false god?"
Horus was silent.
Seeing this, Mister Chi spoke again, "Are you afraid?"
Horus raised his eyebrows and laughed loudly, "What am I afraid of? You even dared to try such a dangerous forbidden spell, of course I won't back down! "
"Good!" Mister Chi nodded with satisfaction, his eyes deep, "The shackles that have been binding us mages for thousands of years, it's time to completely smash them!"
Horus's ugly face was flushed with excitement, and he was about to howl for this exciting and grand goal when Mister Chi suddenly took out a ball-shaped object and threw it over, saying,
"Go to Imperial Dragon City and give this to Emperor Reinhardt."
"What is this?" Horus looked at the eyeball in his hand and asked with a puzzled expression.
"This is a gift I give to my allies," Mister Chi said with a smile full of meaning.
"It is also the first step of our rebellion plan!"
