Chapter 240: The Battle of Lu Gaoin (30)
The royal family of Rugoin had built a secret waterway behind the palace with a small ocean-going vessel known as the Last Hope.
The ship has been carefully designed by many shipbuilders to make it easy to maneuver even with only one driver.
Moreover, despite its small appearance, the ship uses augmentation magic inside, allowing it to hold a much larger number of people and cargo than it seems.
In addition to this, the ship has been upgraded by generations of Rugoin's royal family, and now it not only has all of the above characteristics, but also achieves a degree of stealth when traveling on the sea.
The intention of the ancestors of the royal family to leave this ship was originally to allow the royal bloodline to use it to take refuge at sea when Lu Gaoyin was attacked irresistibly, so as to leave the last ray of hope for the future restoration of the country.
In the entire royal palace, apart from the king, only a few important ministers of the kingdom and the captain of the janissary guard knew about it.
The ship was the last escape for the Hein royal family, and when the kingdom was about to be destroyed, the Janissary Captain would take the Hein royal family to use it to escape from Rugoin.
In other words, if the battle situation is really unfavorable, even if Jehein doesn't want to leave, the captain of the royal guard will forcibly knock him out and stuff him into a boat and send him away.
However, Jehein lost confidence in victory at the very beginning of the war.
The power-hungry and selfish king told no one about his plans to escape, and he abandoned all the people in the kingdom of Rugoin and boarded the ship alone with a large amount of goods to escape.
At first, he did succeed, and everyone in the palace did not expect that he, as the king of Lugoin, would abandon his wife and betray his kingdom in such an act.
So, he went to sea smoothly.
However, as if God had no eye to his actions, when the unfortunate boy was driving the "Last Hope" in the direction of the Channel, he actually ran into Rainbow Feather Mister, who was hurrying to rescue Randall.
In the end, I hope that the invisible spell on the ship can be hidden from ordinary mid- and low-level professionals, but the energy fluctuations on the ship's hull are as conspicuous as a large light bulb in the dark night in the eyes of Mister, who is a legendary powerhouse.
So this sad guy was caught without accident, and he couldn't even struggle and resist......
But only a small fraction of the people of Lugoin's profession knew about the king's desertion and escape, and most of the human guardians thought that the king was waiting in the palace for the good news of their victory!
So, when Rainbow Feather Mistre showed the face of Jhein, whom he had caught, in front of all the human professionals, everyone was stunned.
"Your Majesty! How did His Majesty get caught by that guy? There are no intrusion alarms coming from the direction of the palace?! ”
Most people are very puzzled by this, and only a small number of professionals can guess the reason.
Mister was coming from outside the harbor, and if he had caught the king in the palace, he would have come directly from the palace.
But now that he had caught King Jayhain outside the harbor, it meant that the king was likely already on the run while they were fighting desperately to defend their homeland!
"Damn! Has the royal family of Hine fallen to such an extent? One of the mages paused the staff in his hand, his face full of resentment and disbelief.
Just when most of the professionals were feeling a little overwhelmed, Jayhain, who was being held in his hand by Mister like a chicken, suddenly shouted loudly.
"Help me! I am your King! Do what they ask! Stop!
Peter Hoffman colludes with hell! He even sacrificed this king to the evil pact in the royal palace! Take down that sinister and despicable villain! ”
Jayhain's words caused an uproar among all the professionals, and some of the professionals standing next to Paladin Peter immediately turned their weapons at him vigilantly.
Paladin Peter, known as the "Holy Light of Rebirth", heard Jahine's words, his face immediately turned pale, he never dreamed that this "His Majesty the King", whom he had once sworn allegiance to with his life, not only turned his back on his people and country and ran away alone, but now he actually splashed dirty water on himself in order to survive!
"I, Peter... What a blind dog! To make such a pathetic and abominable fellow as you a loyal lord! I... I... Yes! Burst!!! ”
The paladin, dressed in golden armor, finally couldn't hold back the grief and indignation in his heart anymore, and a mouthful of blood spurted out angrily.
With a hideous face, he grabbed the saber in his hand, slashed it on the royal guard coat of arms on his right chest, and directly dug the exquisite long sword and the heavenly scale coat of arms from the armor.
"You are no longer my lord! You are not worthy to be the king of Rugoin!
Dear fellow professionals! This despicable man had planned to abandon us and run away on his own a few days ago, and his previous words in the royal council that he would never give up were all ridiculous lies!
Jehein! Not only are you discrediting the face of the Hein family's ancestors, but you're also dishonoring all the Lugoins!
You!! How dare you!!! ”
Peter's hand was bruised in his grip on the saber, and the expression on his face was full of resentment and remorse.
If he had known that Corporal Jie Hine had such an ugly face under the appearance of Corporal Lixian, he would have cut this despicable villain in two with a single knife even if he had fought for his life!
"Don't believe him! Valiant Guardians! You are all heroes who helped defend Rugoin, how could I have turned my back on my subjects and you?!
This guy is a fellow party of the Evil Pact! His men have also fallen into the evil path!
My beloved queen and children are still waiting for me in the palace, and even if I abandon the kingdom, how can I abandon them? ”
Jayhain shouted hoarsely, and what he said was reasonable, his tearful performance really frightened many professionals and mercenaries, and even several legendary professionals who had not had time to know the real situation looked at each other with puzzled expressions, and Chris, the loyal royal shield, turned his suspicious eyes on Paladin Peter.
"Damn... It's really a good acting! It's a rake... Gee... If it weren't for the fact that the Superintendent King Worm had been monitoring that small boat, I would have almost believed in his evil ......."
Xue Hua sat on the back of the cockroach and rolled his eyes, directly ignoring Jie Haiyin's frantic performance with tears in his eyes, and ordered the swarm to continue to attack the demon army.
Beside the Pale Duke, the reckless beast's limited-time life suddenly entered the countdown of the last ten seconds.
The ferocious beast of utter madness even vaguely began to break free from the control of the main nest's mind, and it was covered in blood-red mist, and it used its two sickle limbs without hesitation to continue to fiercely attack the Pale Duke, who was already on the verge of shattering.
High in the sky, the heavy artillery governor, who had not received the order to stop the attack, continued to bombard the pale duke who had become a living target one after another, and the dragons and corruptors who completely occupied the air supremacy of the battlefield also launched a new round of air attacks on it.
"Stop! Do you want to kill your king?! ”
Seeing that the blue flames on the pale duke's body were getting weaker and weaker, Mister, who knew that Randall had fallen into an extremely dangerous situation, suddenly became anxious, and his left hand turned into a terrifying black bird claw, and pinched Jayhain's weak neck.
"Stop! Xue Hua! Do you want to kill the king?! ”
Jie Haiyin was pinched and almost turned his back on his back, and after finally relieving himself, the king, who had been frightened to speak, yelled at Xue Hua with a loud voice.
"Are you, like Hoffman, incubated by the forces of hell?!"
