Chapter 82: The Sword of the Kingkiller
Burst!
"Uh... Ahem......"
Leorik looked in disbelief at the sword on his chest—the sword he had given to the Captain of the Praetorian Guard.
He couldn't imagine that this sword would one day be plunged into his chest......
The king took two steps back, his bloodshot eyes wide as he looked at the captain of the Praetorian Guard, who was also stunned.
"Betrayal... Disciple, you... Dare... Kill... Monarch! ”
"I ......," the King's voice pulled the Captain of the Praetorian Guard back from his trance, and he looked at Leorik's staggered backwards, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Everyone in the entire hall was stunned, they didn't expect the king to be stabbed through the heart by the captain of his own guard.
Outside the main hall, the originally sunny weather suddenly became gloomy for no reason, and the storm swept through the entire Tristram Kingdom in just a few seconds.
A heavy cloud hung over everyone's hearts like the weather—and Leorick couldn't hold on after all.
It staggered back to its desk, sat down in its chair with wide eyes.
And then, it was silent.
"This ......"
"The sky is falling!!"
"My God......"
"The Gods Are ......"
Everyone in the hall panicked, and the officers who had come with the captain of the Praetorian Guard to meet the king looked at each other, and then turned around and fled without hesitation.
Seeing them running away, the rest of the people in the hall also ran out.
Leorik's mad rule has long since lost popularity, and although the people here don't have the courage to kill the king with a sword, no one wants to avenge him when they see him killed.
The hall quickly became empty, and only the captain of the Praetorian Guard remained in place, staring at the corpse of King Leorik on his chair.
—The king stared at him with bloodshot eyes all the time.
The Praetorian Captain's mind went blank for a long time, and it wasn't until the lightning and thunder outside the window woke him up that he realized what he had just done.
He killed with his own hands the monarch he had sworn to protect with his life.
He's a... Monarch Killer!
"Ahhhh!!!h
The emotional and moral conflict made the Janissary Captain unable to contain his panic any longer, and he shouted like crazy, venting his mixed emotions like a burst in his heart.
It wasn't until a long time later that the Captain of the Praetorian Guard slowly calmed down.
He stood there for a moment, then slowly walked up to Leoric's corpse, stretched out his hand and drew the long sword that had been stuck in the king's chest, holding it beside his former monarch.
"I... What did I do......"
The face of the Praetorian Guard was a mixture of sadness, pain, self-blame, and relief, and although Leorek's reign had been sliding into the abyss of terror for some time, the Captain of the Praetorian Guard, who was most loyal to him, was the king's closest vassal.
He still firmly believed that sooner or later, His Majesty would become the same holy monarch again.
However, now it is all over.
The era of King Leorik was ended by his own hands.
"I... Breaking my vows with your own hands... I am... The Monarchicide ......"
The captain of the Praetorian Guard was in a trance, clutching the long sword that was still dripping blood, but the look in his eyes slowly became sober.
"The king is dead, the reign of the 'Mad King' is over, I don't know if it's good or bad, but everything has been forged ......"
He shook his head with a wry smile, instinctively trying to justify his actions.
"Anyway, let this end with me, the horrible title of 'Monarchicide'... I'm the only one to carry it! ”
The captain of the Praetorian Guard raised his head firmly, put the long sword stained with the blood of the king in his hand around his neck, and then pulled it out with great force!
Burst!
Dingdingding......
The long sword fell next to the crimson blood pool, and the whole memory scene came to an abrupt end......
Xue Hua slowly opened his eyes, and he returned to the tomb with the empty coffin again, there was a strange chill in the darkness around him, but Xue Hua's left hand was holding the golden-level long sword that had killed the king.
Bloodstained Kingkiller Knight Sword (Gold Tier)
One-handed damage: 147-156
Required Levels: 1
+40% damage enhancement
+76-88 Cold Damage, 6 second duration

+5000% increased health damage against Monarch (Leader, King, Power Leader).

Invisible (irreparable)
Durability 1/1 (can only be attacked once).
"This sword... Hehe......" Xue Hua shook his head.
This is really a dragon slaying knife to send with a click!
It's just that this sword can really only be used to "slay dragons......
He was just a little curious about the purpose of this long sword inserted here, but he didn't expect to end up with such a strange thing......
The other attributes of this sword are normal attributes that can be ignored, but the 5,000% increase in health damage to the monarch and the "continuous damage to the wielder's life force" are very interesting.
To put it bluntly, the previous attribute is to let the person holding this sword use it to find trouble with Skeletron, and the latter attribute is ......
I can only say hehe~
At least the moment Xue Hua held it in his hand, he could clearly feel that this sword was constantly eroding the vitality in his body, but because he had the two skills of cell reorganization and damage transfer, the damage of this sword to him was not completely reflected.
If it was an ordinary level 30 necromancer holding this sword, I was afraid that it would not take a few minutes to be killed directly by it.
Even if it is a more powerful professional, as long as they do not enter the legendary rank, it will be difficult to withstand the erosion of the vitality of this sword.
Moreover, even a legendary-level powerhouse would find it difficult to resist the tenfold vitality erosion of this sword at the moment of swinging.
In other words, if the average person wants to use the same sword that killed Skeletron to kill it again, they must have a firm mindset to die with him.
However, for Xue Hua, the corrosive power of this sword is not so unbearable, his body has already started the process of detachment of higher life forms because of the effect of the new skill "Sublimation", plus he is able to divert most of the erosive power of the sword to millions of insect swarms, and the remaining corrosive power cannot cause him any damage at all under the powerful self-healing power of the cell reorganization skill.
Therefore, this sword in his hand has completely become the ultimate weapon of Skeletron.
But the weapon is available, but Xue Hua can't really go head-to-head with Skeletron.
In any case, he is only a level 33 necromancer, and if he really let him use this sword to stab Skeletron, it is estimated that he will be killed by Skeletron with a hammer before he can get close......
So in order to really use this sword, they must also think of a perfect way.
At least so that Xue Hua can safely approach Skeletron's side.
It's not something that can be easily done!
Xue Hua threw the sword into the inventory and looked up at the steps not far away, a thoughtful look gradually appeared on his face......
