Chapter 691: Fall of the Empire
Tim, Phil and other knights are really eye-opening. Bai Xiaowen's strength is much stronger than during the War of the Remnants, and this kind of war of thousands of people can actually smash the Yellow Dragon, capture and kill the leader of the enemy army, and force the enemy brigade to surrender.
Also eye-opening was Han Xu. He has only seen Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi's performance in the league, but it is the first time he has been powerful in the spirit world. It's always very reassuring to have teammates like that.
Castle Lord's Mansion.
"Wow!"
A basin of cold water was poured down, and Baron Stantin's spirit woke up.
The first thing I felt when I woke up was pain, the sharp pain of broken arms came in waves, and cold sweat oozed from Baron Stantin's forehead.
"Tell me, where is Cecilia now, what is Black Rock City for, suddenly attacking White Rock City?"
A demonic voice rang out, and Baron Stantin's head jerked up.
Bai Xiaowen, who was sitting on the throne of the city lord, didn't mind Baron Stantin's cannibalistic gaze at all, and said coldly: "If I'm not mistaken, the empire should have corresponding laws that prohibit lords from occupying the territory by violent means. How dare you do this, what the hell is going on?"
Baron Stantin gritted his teeth and fell silent.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "I don't have time to spend it with you." Since you don't say it, let Harold Butler tell me. β
Harold on the side, his fat face was pale, but he shook his head desperately: "I won't say it! I won't betray the Ironthorn family!"
Baron Standin was a little excited: "Harold, the Ironthorns will remember your loyalty. β
"It's a touching scene, but unfortunately we're enemies. β
Bai Xiaowen slowly stepped off the throne and came to Harold: "I'll ask again, do you want to say it?"
Harold, who had just been inspired, scowled: "You kill me!"
"It's not that easy to die. β
Bai Xiaowen snorted lightly, but his shot was accurate and ruthless, crackling twice softly, and he forcibly broke Harold's arms! Bai Sensen's stubble was exposed, blood flowed, and Harold screamed in pain, almost fainting.
However, just when Harold was in a trance, the light of Bai Xiaowen's palm spell flickered, switched to the bewildering spell, and shot into Harold's eyebrows.
"The ratio of enemy strength is 0.128:1, and the confusion of the heart charm has been successfully determined! Harold, the steward of the Iron Thorn Family in Northland Black Rock City, has been confused. β
Bai Xiaowen quickly turned on his mental sensing ability, flipped through all the fragments of Harold's memory, closed his eyes and pondered.
Harold was in a very strange state, after being hit by the bewilderment charm, he lowered his head and said nothing, even his twisted and blood-dripping arms hung down casually, and his screams stopped abruptly.
Baron Standin was furious and said, "You beast, you dare to kill Harold!"
Bai Xiaowen suddenly opened his eyes.
"I see, there has been such a big change in the Plantagenet Empire......"
"What's going on?" asked Li Shuyi.
Bai Xiaowen glanced around at several teammates and said, "Just a month ago, the Emperor of the Plantagenet Empire died. It stands to reason that Prince Nicholas should inherit the throne, but his uncle staged a coup d'Γ©tat and was supported by a group of old-fashioned nobles. The two sides are currently in a fierce battle, and it is not yet clear who will win the throne. β
Qiao Rui nodded and said, "If the strength of the two sides is close, even if one side can win, it will be greatly damaged and lose its influence on the major lords, especially the lords of the border lands." β
Li Shuyi suddenly said: "No wonder the Iron Thorn family dares to violate the laws of the empire to do something to Baishiling, as long as it creates the established facts, the new emperor of the empire will not be able to control him in the future." β
"The news of the white stone collar is still too closed. If Cecilia knew about the civil strife in the Plantagenet Empire, she would probably be a little more vigilant about the caravan seizure, and would not easily rush to the Black Rock Fortress to negotiate. Bai Xiaowen said.
"How is Cecilia now?" asked Li Shuyi.
"Cecilia was ambushed by the Ironthorn army. However, the good news is that Cecilia has a lot of combat experience, and she detected the clues of the ambush in advance, and defended the cold spring valley with danger, and did not completely fall into the trap of the enemy and be defeated. Until last night, before the Black Rock Fortress sent troops, Cecilia had been resisting. Bai Xiaowen said.
"Alright, let's go help her. This time I want to teach the Black Rock Fortress Iron Thorn family an unforgettable lesson. Li Shuyi said with a small fist.
Several people were talking, ignoring Baron Stantin, whose mouth was getting wider and wider.
β...... How do you know that? I didn't say anything!"
Bai Xiaowen didn't bother to pay attention to Baron Stantin, called the knight Phil and asked him to take Baron Stanting into prison and guard it closely.
"Xiaowen, what are you doing with him, just click, maybe there is a treasure chest. Li Shuyi showed her true colors as a fan of money.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said: "He is only an elite strength, and he can't turn over the wind and waves when his arms are broken." This baron may still be of some use in the future, so it is better to keep it for now, and wait until the matter is completely resolved, and then consider whether to kill him. β
Qiao Rui very much agreed with Bai Xiaowen's opinion: "That's right. It's easy to kill him anyway, it's just a matter of a knife. β
Han Xu, an honest man on the side, shrunk his neck...... How can the beauties around the captain be more fierce than the other.
Baron Stantin, who had just been taken down, a thin figure with a head wider than his shoulders rushed in.
"Boss! I've finally seen you! This world is too dangerous, I want to go back to the South Island!"
Dr. Zombie almost hugged Bai Xiaowen's thigh and cried.
"Alright...... You're already a dead man, it's okay to die once or twice, and in 12 hours you will be resurrected. Bai Xiaowen said irresponsibly.
"But for me, death is a loss of memory! My memories are precious!" Dr. Zombie emphasized.
"Uh-huh...... Anyway, the last time I left, how was the progress of the research that you were asked to conduct?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
Dr. Zombie pretending to be stupid: "What research?"
Bai Xiaowen snapped his fingers: "Delifa!"
The Dementor Banshee appeared, this time with a whip in her hand, and looked at Dr. Zombie with a malicious smile.
Dr. Zombie raised his hand in surrender: "BOSS, I know!" is a study to make undead creatures self-aware...... It's such a difficult subject that I don't have a clue until now...... I also need more information, such as the Alchemist's research notes!"
"Forget it, put that subject aside for a while," Bai Xiaowen said, "I'll give you something, and I'll study how to use it on the butcher first." A word of warning, don't break it!" He pulled out the stomach pouch of the Flesh Devourer.
"Yes, BOSS!" Seeing that Bai Xiaowen did not ask about the progress of the project, Dr. Zombie breathed a sigh of relief.
