Chapter 622: The Fire of the Shrine
Lucius's words left Sakura Rinko and Assuna speechless, thinking that Nakatomi Kamazu had betrayed herself, Sakura Rinko suddenly felt that although she was the Fuso Emperor, she actually didn't even have someone to trust, let alone enough strength to maintain the majesty of her own emperor.
Sakura Rinko hesitated, still immersed in the sadness of reality, when suddenly the door of the main house was opened, and then No. 3 and No. 4 quickly flashed in, and No. 3 leaned into Lucius's ear and whispered something to Lucius.
Hearing this, Lucius tilted his head and said helplessly: "Hmm, I really can't imagine that those guys really don't remember to eat, and they think that if they find a rescuer, they will be able to attack me?"
"What?" Sakura Rinko was shocked when she heard this, and her previous sadness and depression suddenly disappeared, and she said in disbelief: "How is it possible?
Without answering Sakura's question, Lucius motioned for Number Four to open the door, pointed outside, and said, "Look, the loyal minister you think you can trust has arrived." ”
As soon as Lucius finished speaking, a group of samurai broke into the door from outside the shrine, and quickly surrounded the entire shrine amid the shouts of the Nakatomi Kamazu, and unceremoniously rushed to the main house of the shrine.
Nakatomi Kamakazu strode to the front of the main house, and without looking at Sakura Rinko sitting in the main house, he looked at Lucius with a hideous face: "Hehe, Your Excellency didn't expect it, did you? I'm back again, and this time the people under your command are not there, and I brought enough samurai army." ”
Lucius didn't pay attention to Nakatomi Kamazu, but looked back at Sakura Rinko, and he didn't pay attention to the samurai army led by Nakatomi Kamazu.
Sakura Rinko was at a loss for a while, but when she saw Lucius's gaze, she suddenly came to her senses, calmed down and shouted angrily to Nakasaki: "Nakazumi Kamazu, what are you doing? You dare to lead troops to break into the shrine, do you still have me as the emperor in your eyes?"
The lieutenant bowed to Sakura Rinko and said, "Your Majesty, the situation has changed a bit now, so please forgive the lieutenant's rudeness, but you can rest assured that the lieutenant will definitely guarantee your safety." ”
As he spoke, without waiting for Sakura Rinko to speak again, Nakatomi Kamazu shouted to the samurai around him: "What are you all doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and arrest these guys who are trying to kidnap His Majesty the Emperor? And this village is no longer safe, immediately escort His Majesty the Emperor out of here." ”
In the face of Nakatomi Kamazu's rush to white, Sakura Rinko had almost no chance to speak. I was stunned for a long time and couldn't say a word to refute it.
On the contrary, it was Lucius who sneered and said: "Hehe, what you said is very high-sounding, but it's a pity, you are destined to bear the infamy of a traitor, since you want to do it, then come." ”
As soon as Lucius's words fell, No. 3 and No. 4 had already taken the lead, and the two mechanical demon spirits made a move, and those Fuso warriors were not opponents at all, and in the blink of an eye, a large number of Fuso warriors were put to the ground. He could only lie on the ground and howl in pain, completely losing the strength to attack.
Nakatomi Kamazu obviously didn't expect that the samurai he had been transferred with great difficulty would be so vulnerable. I couldn't even enter the main house of the shrine, so I was put down by two metal men.
Originally, although Zhongchen Kazuzu knew that the metal people around Lucius were very powerful, but in his mind, the most powerful were Du Liniang's people, and when he learned that Du Liniang and they were all sent out by Lucius. He saw this opportunity and asked Kinoshita Hideyoshi to transfer an elite samurai team, intending to take down Lucius.
But the results were clearly not what he expected. With only No. 3 and No. 4 here, Kinoshita Hideyoshi sent this elite samurai squad, obviously there was nothing to do with Lucius.
Lucius didn't pay attention to Nakatomi Kamazu at all, nor did he care about the fierce battle between No. 3 and No. 4, but turned his head and smiled at Sakura Rinko and said, "How is it? Have you decided again? Do you want to leave with me?"
Sakura Rinko raised her head to look at Lucius, and suddenly remembered the surviving people in the village, and asked with some doubts: "If so, if I leave with you, what will happen to those people in the village? Wouldn't it be the same as letting them wait here to die?"
Lucius couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Do you think that after you leave, this village will be of any value to other people, and they will still care about such a small fishing village by the sea?"
Seeing that Sakura's face was still blank, Lucius said very bluntly: "If it weren't for you, do you think this small fishing village would be what it is today? ”
Immediately afterward, he seemed to feel that his words were a bit heavy, so he said as calmly as possible: "But you can rest assured, I have already asked Takeda Koji to send someone in advance to pick up the surviving villagers." ”
The undisguised conversation between Lucius and Sakura Rinko shocked Nakatomi Kamazu, who was standing outside the house directing the samurai attack, and then couldn't help but shout, "It turns out that you didn't trust me from the beginning?" ”
Glancing at the Nakazu standing outside the house, surrounded by a group of samurai, Lucius said with disdain: "Do you think you are worthy of my trust? You can betray even the emperor you swore allegiance to, and people like you are born with the idea of betrayal, so you are not trustworthy at all." ”
Sakurarako had already stood up, and when she walked to Lucius's side, she heard the conversation between Lucius and Nakatomi Kamazu, and looked at Lucius with some puzzlement.
Lucius smiled and said, "Hehe, don't mind, this loyal minister of yours once approached me, saying that he wanted to join me with those daimyo and serve me instead, but I didn't accept them. ”
Hearing Lucius say this, Sakura Rinko had completely lost trust in Nakatomi Kamazu, and looked indifferently at Nakatomi Kamazu outside the house and said, "Nakatomi, if you still recognize me as the emperor and recognize you as my subordinate, then immediately order to get out of the way and let me and Lucius leave." ”
Sakura's words made Ei feel disdainful for a while, but Lucius smiled and stopped Ei, who was about to mock, and continued to stand there watching the play with great interest.
Sure enough, Nakazu Kamazu quickly replied: "The current emperor, as the emperor, you actually want to cooperate with outsiders, this really should not be the behavior of an emperor, as a subordinate, I must point out your mistakes." ”
Lucius couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Hahahaha, it's so funny. Sakura, do you people in Fuso always talk about some dirty things in such a glorious and glorious way? Don't they blush when they say such things?"
In fact, Sakura Rinko was already annoyed, she didn't expect that the other party could say such a thing in front of Lucius and herself, it was almost to the point of being completely shameless.
Sakura Rinko didn't say anything more at the moment, and said directly to Lucius: "Let's go." I feel sick to see this group of self-healing loyal people. ”
Lucius grinned slightly: "Okay, since Your Majesty has this request, then I will naturally meet you, let's go, No. 3, No. 4, and get rid of the miscellaneous pieces outside." ”
No. 3 and No. 4 immediately took the order, and the force of the attack suddenly increased, and the action became more ferocious. Seeing this, Kage was also a little eager to try, but was stopped by Lucius, and asked Kage to be in charge of escorting Sakura Rinko and Asukina, and instead said to Shirou, "Shirou." You can go and try your hand. ”
Seeing that Lucius asked Shirou to go to war, Asukina couldn't help but feel a little worried, but before Asukina could stop her, she was stopped by Sakura Rinko first.
Afterwards, under the escort of Shadow. Sakura Rinko and Assuna were able to break out of the shrine that had already been surrounded, and Shadow unleashed a ghostly attack to directly break through the samurai who were surrounding the shrine. Take Sakura Rinko and Asukina out to kill.
Rushing out of the village, standing in the forest outside the village, looking at the shrine that was gradually engulfed in flames, Sakura Rinko and Asukina both had sad expressions on their faces, Sakura Rinko sighed: "I really didn't expect that when people's ambitions completely exploded, even the gods couldn't stop them." ”
Ying Wenyan raised his head and glanced at the shrine that had already ignited the fire, and said disdainfully: "Some people always think that as long as they can overcome the fear of the gods, they are the most powerful, but unfortunately, it is actually just a kind of self-comfort for the weak, and when death comes, they will understand that even the gods will not give them salvation." ”
After that, he didn't care if Sakura Rinko and Assuna understood, turned around and took a step as he walked, saying, "Okay, let's hurry as far as we can, and send you to a safe place as much as possible, so that I can do other things with peace of mind, really, there are always all kinds of troubles." ”
Hearing Ei's complaints, Sakura Rinko and Assuna took one last look at the shrine that had been flooded in flames, and then turned around and followed Ei's back towards the depths of the forest.
In the shrine, Lucius stood alone in front of the only remaining main house, quietly looking at Kamazu, who was full of horror and kept retreating under the escort of a large number of samurai, shook his head and said, "It seems that your abacus has not been launched, and this group of guys you found is really too weak." ”
Nakatomi Kazu's eyes were full of fear when he looked at Lecius, he stood in front of the shrine that was about to be engulfed in flames, in front of him was a corpse lying in a pool of blood, and two metal men covered in blood, and a bloodied boy stood in front of him, at this moment Lucius looked like a demon from hell.
The current Nakazu Kamazu knows very well that he is not the opponent of the other party, even if Kinoshita Hideyoshi transfers all the troops in their hands, I am afraid that he may not be able to keep Lucius.
But he was still not convinced, in his opinion, he now knew the strength of the other party, and the next time the two sides met, his side would definitely be prepared, and he would not be ended by the other party in this almost slaughtering state, and he and Kinoshita Hideyoshi would let each other understand the true strength of the Fuso samurai.
Lucius was not in a hurry, and continued to look at the middle minister, knowing that the other party would escape, he did not mean to stop the other party, just stood there quietly, as calm as the host waiting for the guest to leave.
It wasn't until Nakatomi Kamazu finally ordered a retreat, and when he and the few remaining samurai under his command fled under the cover of the thrown Thunder Pill, that Lucius opened his mouth and shouted loudly: "Nakatomi Kamazu, next time I hope that you and Kinoshita Hideyoshi can show some decent strength, don't let me down." ”
Kamakazu, who had already withdrawn from the shrine, heard the shouts of Lucius behind him, and suddenly stumbled under his feet and almost fell, but fortunately, the samurai around him helped him in time.
Standing firm, Nakatomi Kamazu looked back unwillingly, and saw the figure standing in the sea of fire, although he was unwilling in his heart, he could only swallow this breath, and led the surviving samurai to leave quickly. (To be continued......)
