Chapter 738: The Angry King

Krylov III was silent, but his face was gloomy and his eyes were awe-inspiring.

The cold eyes spoke silently, and even though Viscount Latiss lowered his head, he felt the anger hidden in his sight.

With his eyes rolling in his sockets, Viscount Latiss anxiously wanted to find a way to calm his majesty's anger, but unfortunately, eagerness only made him flustered, only made his hands and feet weak, and only made him lose the ability to think.

Rickan stood silently, the rat-man, who was definitely not old, as if he had truly become the shadow of Krylov III, becoming more and more silent.

And in this matter, he also thinks that Viscount Latisse really did something wrong, if he didn't despise this matter at the beginning, then this matter can be nipped in the bud, and it will not lead to what happened later at all.

He should have reported it sooner!

โ€œ...... Your Majesty, may I express my opinion?" asked Rykan softly from the side.

Such a stalemate is not a solution, Krylov III wants to make Viscount Latiss understand what he is wrong, but now the once proud Viscount is covered in cold sweat, and his brain is obviously confused.

After hearing Rickan speak, Krylov III and Viscount Latis, who was kneeling on the ground, both cast their eyes, but one was approving, the other was grateful.

Rickan sighed inwardly, stepped forward, stepped out of the shadows, and bowed slightly to Krylov III.

Krylov III pondered for a moment and said in a cold voice: "You can say it!"

He had to maintain his majesty, and he had to make Viscount Latisse understand who was the master of this kingdom.

He wanted to let this 'palace master' know what he was wrong with, because this matter was so serious, if Viscount Latiss hadn't despised the information presented below at the beginning, then the 'Demon Sacrifice' would not have overflowed!

Originally, it only needed the local lord to send troops to encircle and suppress it, but now it can be solved with the help of the kingdom army and the power of the church.

"We first need to come up with a solution to this matter, which cannot be dragged on any longer!" said Rickan as he looked at Viscount Latisse, who was clearly reminding the palace steward.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Viscount Fortes Latiss understood and nodded repeatedly, "This matter can't be delayed any longer, this is not an isolated incident, there must be a deeper conspiracy behind it!"

The Viscount was not stupid, he knew that Krylov III could not remove him from his position because of this matter, and in a short time, his Majesty simply could not find someone who could replace him.

But he must not let up because of this, and if it really reaches the point of no return, His Majesty Krylov III will definitely not bother to let him sit in the place where he is sitting now.

He couldn't leave anything to chance, so he hurriedly picked up after Rykan spoke.

After being reminded, Viscount Latisse's thoughts expanded, and many pent-up thoughts instantly appeared in his mind.

After sorting out these thoughts a little in a panic, Viscount Latiss hurriedly spoke during the time when Rykan deliberately paused: "Secondly, we need to prepare the kingdom army, and then contact the clergy of the major churches, they have always been not very fond of such things as demon sacrifices, as long as we open our mouths, they will definitely help." โ€

With his brain spinning rapidly, Viscount Latis continued without stopping: "Third, we need to find out the real culprit behind the scenes, as I said before, this is not an isolated incident, there must be someone behind those demon believers behind it, this is not only happening in our kingdom, but also in other countries!"

In the process of summing up, Viscount Latisse's mind became clearer and clearer, and gradually, he had sorted out everything, but at this moment, he lost his voice.

His voice stopped abruptly, and not only Rykan, but even Krylov III was a little surprised.

Viscount Latis is not very lustful, but he doesn't want to give up the power in his hands, otherwise he wouldn't have been so desperate to reflect on his previous mistakes just now.

After a period of silence, Viscount Latis came back from his trance, raised his head woodenly, and stammered to Krylov III, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... I thought about it, and I seemed to understand something......"

Krylov III frowned, "What do you understand?"

"No, no, no, it should be 'speculation' to be exact!" Viscount Latiss hurriedly shook his head, correcting his previous mispronunciation.

Then he hesitated, swallowed hard, and said bitterly: "This is not an isolated incident, some time ago I received news from the Ogordon Empire, it is said that some dangerous monsters have appeared near the imperial capital of that huge empire, 'Mind Flayer'...... At first, I didn't think the existence of the Mind Flayer had anything to do with the Demon Sacrifice event. But later, the same news came frequently, and I still didn't realize the connection, but just now, I seem to understand!"

At the mention of 'Mind Flayer', Krylov III's face turned ugly.

If it weren't for that damn octopus face, Mott wouldn't have died, and although Rykan wouldn't have been by his side, the damage that that octopus face had done to the kingdom was too heavy!

Even that internal war is inextricably linked to it!

"Why didn't you present this information?" asked Krylov III angrily.

As soon as Krylov III's words fell, Viscount Latiss shouted: "It's just that the subordinates don't think this kind of thing is important!"

At such times, only by taking the blame for himself can he retain his position and power.

Krylov III cannot be wrong, and even if His Majesty the King is wrong, he cannot directly point it out, and this is the 'way of being a courtier'.

After glaring at Viscount Latis, who was kneeling on the ground, for a long time, Krylov III withdrew his angry gaze and said angrily: "So, what next?"

Viscount Latis breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, then his body trembled slightly, and he said loudly: "After the demon sacrifice, the demon who received the sacrifice will also reward some things to the sacrificer, even the most stingy demon can't be stingy with this thing, but among the demon believers we exterminated, we didn't find that they have any power or treasure. Most likely, the real sacrificers are not them at all!"

Only in this way can the fear in his heart be dispelled.

Because he also knew very well that on that battlefield, the Mind Flayer had taken away a very terrifying monster - a powerful monster created by the vanished Abner Elfaro!

The former Marquis of the Kingdom was a very powerful legendary mage, and if he hadn't committed suicide, then with that terrifying monster, I'm afraid no one would be able to defeat him on that battlefield.

Not only the Abyss Lord, but even the legendary 'Ministers' also appeared on that battlefield.

It was no longer a battle that mortals could participate in, and no one dared to do it at that time, except for the soldiers of the Sorrowful Wind Leader and the [Hands of Justice].

Now, if there is a strong evidence linking these events, then all the clues point to the same 'person'!

The Lord of the Abyss, the Lord of the 972nd Layer of the Bottomless Abyss [Mind Prison], and the legendary Mind Flayer [Mind Master] Estem Lange Rorota may be behind it!

Because, at that time, it took the terrible monster from the battlefield, and Albernard Elfaro once said that the monster needs a soul, and now the demon believers may sacrifice to it 'soul' instead of 'killing'.

โ€œ...... Is that so?" said Krylov III.

Then, furiousโ€”

"Viscount Foster Latis, I, Krylov III, your Majesty, now order you, in my capacity as king, to exterminate some of the sacrificers, to decapitate the heads of the octopuses that may exist, and to present them to me as a gift!"
