Chapter 592: His Majesty the King can completely trust my integrity!
Underground of Cardan Palace Castle.
Sensing the mocking gaze of the black-robed skeleton, King Cardan turned around and quickly headed towards the entrance of the prison.
——Four undead knights and an undead mage, even with the background of the Cardan royal family, he is not sure of winning!
What's more, that damn undead seems to have more helpers.
Thinking back to the two translucent white bone claws that tried to widen the space crack just now.
Ariel's heart is very heavy!
As the king of the Cardan Kingdom, he has a certain understanding of various deeds that happened in the past era.
According to the historical records left by our ancestors, that should be the ultimate dream of the necromancers - a variant of the bone dragon, the ghost dragon!
While he was thinking, a bone-white spear exuding a cold aura fell from the sky directly in front of him, trying to block his way.
Seeing this, Ariel quickly activated his life fighting energy and put the shield above his head!
——He wanted to resist this attack and quickly approached the entrance stairs!
The next moment, the falling bone spear hit the shield and the ground beside him, and pieces of cold mist exploded in an instant.
Then, in Ariel's surprised look.
These cold mist ignored the bright protection of King Cardan's sword and tried to freeze him in place!
——Under the influence of the cold fog, Ariel's forward speed suddenly slowed down!
Sensing such an anomaly, Ariel increased the input of life fighting energy, and the King Sword in his hand also shone brightly.
A ring of pure white flames exploded towards his side.
Under the influence of the bright flame, the surrounding ice was instantly dispersed, and Ariel regained his freedom!
But don't wait for him to move on.
An undead knight had already seized the opportunity to close the distance, holding a giant gun and sweeping towards him!
Seeing this, Ariel immediately raised his sword to fight without showing any signs of weakness.
After a violent metal collision.
The undead knight holding a huge gun couldn't help but retreat.
Ariel also stopped in place with a gloomy expression.
——At the moment of the fight, the other two undead knights crossed him and blocked his way!
After weighing each other's strengths, Ariel turned and looked again at the black-robed skeleton standing on the altar, looking at him as if mockingly, and said:
"Graeme! I think you are probably familiar with the situation outside. We still don’t understand enough.
The knights of the Bruns Empire are fighting the rebels on the ground.
But despite this, we still failed to defend the Kadan Palace. The rebels’ strength is beyond imagination!
When they occupy the Kadan Palace, After noticing an abnormality, you will inevitably find this place.
Even if there are ghost dragons, you still cannot be their opponent!
I suggest that you leave immediately along the space passage and find other opportunities to come to the Farnes Continent!"
After hearing Ariel's words, the white firelight in the eye hole of the black-robed skeleton flashed for a moment.
Then, he spoke in a hoarse voice:
"Thank you for the reminder, His Majesty the King.
But if we want to gain a foothold on this continent, we still have to run into the strong ones here!
Although we may not necessarily be theirs. Opponents, but at least in the 'home' of King Cardan, they should be unable to do anything to us."
After hearing this, I don't understand where this guy's confidence comes from.
But this attitude of not wanting to stop also makes Ariel very anxious!
At such a sensitive time, undead appear under the castle of Cardan Palace.
It is easy to think that the Cardan royal family is colluding with the undead and wants to use the power of the undead to defeat the rebels!
After the matter is fermented, they may be recognized as traitors on the Farnes Continent, and the survivors will be jointly hunted down by the Human Alliance countries! ——The Maddox family will always be nailed to the pillar of shame for betraying all the clans of the Farnes Continent and colluding with the undead!
Ariel couldn't help but feel suffocated when he thought about possible scenarios in the future!
He obviously just wants to bathe in the last afterglow of the kingdom and die heroically!
How did things become like this! ?
Thinking of this, Ariel clenched his sword and stared at the black-robed skeleton on the altar with an unkind expression.
At the same time, he kept glancing around, trying to find a chance to leave here.
——Only by leaving here, spreading the word about the situation here, seeking assistance from all parties, and leading the royal family's warriors on the front line of killing the undead, can the Maddox family be freed from the suspicion of colluding with the undead!
Under the current circumstances, the defense of the palace and castle is no longer important!
As long as they can get rid of the suspicion of colluding with the undead.
Then even surrendering directly to the rebels is completely acceptable!
In many countries of the Human Alliance, secretly imprisoning one or two undead is not a big deal.
As long as the information is not leaked or is properly handled after it is leaked, it will be fine.
But the situation that makes Ariel very powerless is:
the Kingdom of Cardan is on the verge of destruction!
They no longer have the means to deal with the impact of the spread of the news, nor do they have the strength to kill several powerful undead in front of them!
Once the truth of the matter followed him and was buried underground.
Then the scenario he thought before may become a reality in the future!
It seemed that he had penetrated Ariel's thoughts.
The black-robed skeleton once again let out a breathtaking laugh.
Then, he spoke in a hoarse voice:
"I advise you to save your energy, with the thinking of nobles like you.
Even if you succeed in spreading the news here, and then disguise yourself as an innocent victim, And actively cooperated to expel us.
After the war, your enemies will definitely ignore the facts mercilessly and pour all the dirty water on you.
As you just said, the royal capital has been lost, and it is only a matter of time before the palace and castle fall. .
Without any power or bargaining chip, do you want the enemy to show you mercy?"
At this point, the black-robed skeleton stopped.
His meaning has been made very clear - there is no place for kindness in disputes between countries!
Just when Ariel's eyes were full of grief and anger, the black-robed skeleton said with pity:
"Your Majesty the King, we have known each other for so many years.
Although you have always been prejudiced against me and imprisoned me in A dark underground prison.
But I'm also very grateful to you for funding my research.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have the power and influence I have now.
If you don't want to accept our help, then you can leave in a while and find a place to remain anonymous.
You Maddox family must have a way out in this castle, and I believe you must have a way to leave here quietly.
But you must keep the royal sword in your hand. I will declare to the public that you died in my hands!
In this way, the suspicion of colluding with us can be cleared away. "
Hearing these "sincere" words that didn't seem to be true, Ariel said with some suspicion:
"I won't cause trouble for you, and it's not impossible for me to hand over the King Sword to you.
But how do I know if you're lying to me?
Are you willing to sign a contract with me and promise not to go back on it? "
As soon as Ariel said this, the atmosphere in the underground cave became inexplicably silent.
After a while, the black-robed skeleton spoke righteously:
"His Majesty the King can completely trust my integrity!
I will never deceive a friend who has helped me! ”
