The new champion of the Colosseum was temporarily arranged to stay in a quiet room in Princess Carol's palace due to the chaos in the palace.
Ever since he was arranged to stay in this room, Tang Tianlin didn't see any of the guards … not even the palace guards.
It was as if he had been forgotten. He could only hear some noises coming from outside from time to time.
It seemed that at night, the palace of the Kingdom of Elnis was once again invaded by assassins.
Tang Tianlin couldn't help but feel a little strange that there were two assassinations in one day … Tang Tianlin couldn't help but think of the Yamos King, who had almost conquered the world, in the modern world outside the chessboard. There was a certain emperor in the history of ancient countries who had also unified the world.
He was often the target of assassination attempts, and his palace was also heavily guarded at all times.
A king who could destroy so many countries was definitely not a mediocre person … Was King Amos of Elnis really willing to live as the Dragon Queen's gigolo?
"Staying here forever is not a solution."
He needed to find a way to investigate the situation in the palace, whether it was Princess Carol or King Amos … Tang Tianlin pulled off the embroidered ball on his body.
He quietly opened the window of the room, only to find that there were two bodyguards standing outside the window. They were even standing guard facing the window.
"What do you want?" The guard asked coldly.
"I just want to get some fresh air." Tang Tianlin shrugged and said indifferently, "Also, can you get me something to eat? I haven't eaten for a day."
The guard responded by ignoring Tang Tianlin's words and closing the window from the outside with a cold and emotionless face.
Tang Tianlin couldn't help but shake his head. He took two steps back, and then his body began to gradually fade. The opacity instantly decreased by about 50%.
Tang Tianlin waved his hand toward the cabinet beside him. His palm easily went through the cabinet. This was a special ability that came with his profession. It was very convenient.
According to the skill's introduction, this skill was called [Universal Penetration]. It could penetrate more than 95% of objects without any biological characteristics. However, Tang Tianlin preferred to call this skill: Ghostly Wall.
He was about to go through the wall.
However, at this moment, an indifferent voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"If I were you, I wouldn't be so reckless. This is the palace guarded by several saints, not a garden outside. Such a move would be seen as a provocation. Especially you, the palace of Princess Carol, which is the most heavily guarded palace in the country. "
Tang Tianlin's eyes instantly froze. He looked around nervously, but he couldn't find the source of the voice.
"Who are you …" Tang Tianlin was still looking around as he slowly turned his body, "Sacred … Perhaps you're one of the Sacred experts in the palace? Sword Saint … or one of the other two saint masters? "
"You want to know who I am?" The voice sounded again.
Tang Tianlin had calmed down by now. He said calmly, "You suddenly spoke … Didn't you want to attract my attention? Now that I know of your existence, are you not going to say anything? "
"Go to the bed next door, then move the floor under the bed. There is a passage. You can come down through the passage." The mysterious voice suddenly became gloomy. "Of course, I can't guarantee what will happen to you. Perhaps, curiosity will bring something more terrible than death."
Tang Tianlin shrugged and walked to the side of the bed. It was impossible for him to crawl under the bed. He directly activated the [Everything Piercer] skill and jumped.
His body went through without any accident and fell to the ground. Then, he disappeared. He only felt his body sliding in an extremely slanted tunnel. After a long time, he finally stopped.
In front of him was a dark hole. It was not big, about the size of the room he was in. But on the mud floor, he could see the bones of some small reptiles.
At the same time, Tang Tianlin saw another person.
One was sitting against the wall. His hair was disheveled, and he couldn't even see his face clearly. He could only vaguely see his extremely withered cheeks. His legs were motionless, and his hands were hanging by his side. He looked as thin as a skeleton.
The moment he saw the other person, he even had half of the corpse of an unknown insect in his mouth.
"Your limbs … are broken?" Tang Tianlin couldn't help but be shocked. He said subconsciously, "You … You have been trapped in this place all this time? Who are you?! "
"I want to lie flat on my back."
The voice sounded again, but Tang Tianlin clearly didn't see the other person's lips moving. It wasn't even ventriloquism.
"In addition to my limbs, my spine is also broken. I have been leaning like this for many years. Can you help me lie flat on my back, little friend?"
Tang Tianlin nodded and cautiously approached the mysterious old man's side.
He directly reached out to touch the other person's arm and found that the other person's arm was indeed more withered and shriveled. He moved the old man little by little and found that the old man's back clothes had long been rotten. There was even a part of his skin and flesh that was tightly stuck to the wall.
Just by moving the old man, the skin and flesh that were stuck to the wall had been directly torn apart. A shocking wound appeared.
This should have been an extremely painful thing.
However, Tang Tianlin heard the old man's laughter. He still didn't speak. His voice sounded from all directions, but it was transmitted back and forth in the narrow space. Gradually, it became terrifying.
"So comfortable! I haven't lied like this for a long time … So comfortable! Hahaha —! "
"Se … Senior, how long have you been here?" Tang Tianlin couldn't help but frown.
"Senior?" The old man's laughter suddenly stopped, "Let me ask you, how old are you this year?"
"30." Tang Tianlin casually said a number, which was a little younger than his original age.
"I'm only 26 years old now, but you call me senior?"
"What, you …" Tang Tianlin was shocked. This person looked like he was on the verge of death. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was like a dying old man. "How … how did you become like this?"
"How did I become like this … How did I become like this?" The old man … or the extremely withered old man's voice suddenly became excited, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything … my experience! But before that, you have to promise to do one thing for me —! Of course, I'll also give you unexpected benefits —! "
Tang Tianlin couldn't help but frown. Obviously, he didn't want to agree, so as not to complicate matters.
But unexpectedly, he received a prompt from the will of the chessboard.
— Brave adventurer, are you willing to listen to the past of this mysterious man with a miserable life?
— — -You might trigger a miracle.
— Or it may just be a trap.
— If you don't want to trigger it, just kill this mysterious man with a miserable life.
— I won't blame you. This is just a guy with a miserable life.
Miserable life? Three times? — Tang Tianlin couldn't help but open his mouth. Was the will of the chessboard always so naughty?
"You tell me first." Tang Tianlin sighed and said, "I'll see. If I can help, I'll do it … But I won't guarantee anything."
The old man … the guy with a miserable life suddenly became silent.
His limbs were crippled, and even his spine was broken. Lying on the ground, he was no different from a dead man … Tang Tianlin's patience was surprisingly good at this moment. He stayed quietly with the old man.
Finally, the voice sounded again.
"My name is Norma. Two years ago, I came to the king's city and became the champion of the most famous arena in the king's city … I was summoned by the princess of the palace. I thought this would be the turning point of my life. My life would become different, and a new legend would be born … But I didn't expect that this was actually the beginning of a nightmare …"
He said faintly.
Tang Tianlin's brows gradually tightened — He didn't know what was going on outside the palace at this time, and he didn't know if the guards outside had discovered him after he disappeared from the room.
…
…
Palace, King Amos' study.
— You've received the Great Holy Light Sword that has been unsealed for the second time.
— Now it's the incomplete third Divine Weapon [Aurora's Aster].
The moment the sword was in his hand, Boss Luo directly received a prompt from [Chessboard] … After losing the weapon for two days, it seemed to have been upgraded.
Was it because of Mr. Max from [Locke's Arms Shop]?
One of the three incomplete Divine Weapons, which meant that [Aurora's Aster] was not in its complete state.
Boss Luo looked at the exposed Divine Weapon and chose to hide the special effects on it without hesitation. Soon, it became an ordinary longsword again.
King Amos had calmed down from the moment of shock … He was a king who had almost conquered the world. So far in his life, there were probably very few things that could make him lose his composure like this.
"Now it seems that it's really no different from an ordinary sword," King Amos said calmly, "Just like the fake goods sold on the streets outside."
"It's quite good like this." Boss Luo smiled slowly and said, "Your Majesty, don't you think that if it's a weapon for assassination, it's more convenient to have such an ordinary appearance?"
King Amos opened his mouth and then chuckled.
He shook his head and did not rush to speak. Instead, he pulled out a handkerchief from the drawer and slowly wiped the wound on his palm. When he finished wiping the wound, King Amos threw the stained handkerchief aside.
He then looked up and said, "You said this sword is yours … So, you're the one who lost your weapon in [Locke's Arms Shop] and got involved in Max's murder case?"
"Your Majesty seems to be very clear about everything." Boss Luo blinked at this moment.
"Not only do I know that you lost your weapon at the weapons shop, but I also know that you bought a fake one from a stall near the murder scene." King Amos smiled calmly and said, "As a king, I should know everything … But as a king, I won't say anything. Even if I know, I just know. When I want to say it, I'll say it. "
Luoqiu waved his hand and the incomplete Celestial Weapon was instantly kept. "Is this the right time to say it?"
King Amos said calmly, "My spies can't find out your origin … They have the ability to investigate the origins of everyone in this world. At most, it's not a matter of time. Only you, they can't find any trace of you. It's as if you appeared out of thin air. I've met such people before. There are even records of them in some of the Royal Family's secret collections. "
As he said this, he looked at Boss Luo and said expressionlessly, "We call them outsiders, invaders. No matter how many invaders come and how many times they come, they only have one goal in mind. "
Boss Luo also said frankly, "Your Majesty, our team is currently facing a problem. We need to summon the kingdom's guardian. But from the current situation, it's not easy … I'm not sure if Your Majesty has any good solutions. "
King Amos narrowed his eyes and said, "In the past, there were many members of the Royal Family. The king of kings didn't care about sacrificing one or two princes and princesses to stop the disaster brought by the invaders … But now, there are only two members of the Royal Family of Elnis, including me, the king. Tell me, how do you want me to help you? The person who presides over the summoning ceremony must be me, the king. The only one who can be sacrificed is the princess of this country. She's my only bloodline. Do you want me to kill my own bloodline with my own hands? "
"Then I have no other questions." Boss Luo nodded and said, "Sorry for disturbing you tonight."
After saying this, Boss Luo was about to leave … King Amos probably didn't expect this result and was at a loss.
This invader seemed to be different from the invaders recorded by the Royal Family … But looking at the back of the invader who was about to leave, King Amos opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end.
Suddenly.
The Yamos King's brows instantly furrowed.
He sensed an aura that was all too familiar to him … It was the woman who had appeared with him in the legends that had spread across the entire continent.
The Princess of the Dragon Race … The current Queen of the Dragon Race.
"Yamos, are you going to let the invader who tried to hurt my daughter go?!"
An angry voice sounded in the sky above the Royal Palace — A huge vortex appeared in the sky above the Royal Palace … In the vortex, a huge figure appeared like a falling meteorite!
Looking at the spectacle of dark clouds and the huge figure of the Queen of the Dragon Race, Boss Luo couldn't help but blink in the courtyard outside the study room. "It seems … the progress is faster."
He shook his head. Some words shouldn't be said casually. Otherwise, he would be regarded as an annoying client.
…
— Previously, he complained that it was too slow, but now, he complained that it was too fast … Rip!
Something like that.
