Hail the King - Chapter 655

Chapter 655




Fei’s order meant that the sickle of the Grim Reaper was starting to claim lives .
The troops of Chambord didn’t move . From the beginning to end, only Inzagi and the [Four Spikes] moved .

After the sunset of that day, these five silent assassins started to take away their enemies’ lives one by one in the darkness .

Didn’t matter if it was Balio who had the cross scar on his face or the silver-haired beautiful mage Laura, they all told Inzagi about the hiding spots of the elite dragon hunt teams from their mercenary groups in the [Hell] . Their confessions were almost 100% accurate, saving Chambord a lot of time .

Also, Inzagi and the [Four Spikes] were very careful during the day, so the other dragon hunt teams didn’t notice anything strange and weren’t able to react to the changes in time .

In the night, Inzagi and the [Four Spikes] became the envoys of darkness and visited each and every hiding spot at Chambord City .

These mercenaries whose jobs were to start killing and robbing the citizens of Chambord at the critical moment to distract Chambord’s attention were no match for professional assassins .

Without having the ability to fight back, they were all pulled out .

-Inside a simple courtyard at Chambord City-

A mercenary of the [Wind Horse Mercenary Group] who was carefully patrolling around suddenly froze . Before he could shout out a warning, he felt a coldness in his neck and lost the ability to make a sound . Then, as if all the energy in his body was sucked away, he collapsed onto the ground powerlessly .

In the next moment, the noises made by wind intensified . Merciless and silent killings occurred in this quiet courtyard .

A series of hoarse and unwilling low whispers sounded, and then the wind whistled and covered the sound made by bodies falling to the ground .

In the darkness, the five black figures dashed around like phantoms and were as fast as lightning . Every time they moved, a mercenary of the [Wind Horse Mercenary Group] would bleed and fall to the ground .

During this entire murderous process, no one discovered that their peers around them died before them .

They all discovered the vicious grin of the Grim Reaper in their sleep and at their surprise .

In less than five minutes, the 20 experienced and skilled mercenaries of the [Wind Horse Mercenary Group] who were hiding in this place were wiped out .

When the last mercenary fell to the ground, a huge carriage arrived at the gate of this courtyard quietly . A few burly but agile men jumped off the carriage and moved all the corpses onto the carriage smoothly . Then, they cleaned all the traces in the yard and disappeared in the dark alleyway with the carriage as if it was all a part of a hallucination .

This same scene happened at different places at Chambord in the night .

The darkness covered up the merciless killings, and the people who were in a deep sleep didn’t notice anything .




……

The second day, one day away from the King of Chambord’s wedding .

When the sun raised from the peak of the east mountain of Chambord, the sunlight shined upon this ancient city once again . It was a new day for the people in this city .

Finally, some people noticed the killings that took place .

Inside a well-hidden courtyard, there should be 20 mercenaries situated here, but it was empty at the moment . In the middle of the courtyard, there stood four mid-aged men who looked concerned .

“Isaac, my most loyal partner, what did you discover?” The person who just spoke was muscular, and his facial features were sharp . Even though he had messy short brown hair, the edges of his hair were yellow . He was wearing a silver chain armor, a pair of leather shorts that revealed his lower legs, and a pair of leather battle boots that exposed his toes . He was about 45 years of age, and he looked energetic like a lion that was at its peak .

He was Mellberg who had the nickname of [War Pirate] . He was the Group Leader of the [Wind Horse Mercenary Group] .
The man whose name was Isaac was a thin and tall mage who was in his forties as well . He looked perseverant, and he was wearing a rough magic robe .

As two dashes of terrifying silver light shot out of his eyes, he glanced around the courtyard and sniffed .

It looked like he was in a mystic state, and his soul was somewhere else . He answered firmly, “Blood…… Murder…… I see terrifying killing . The enemies who are in the dark waved their daggers and charged in, killing all the kids……”



“Who did it?” For some reason, this [War Pirate] who was known to be overprotective in the region didn’t get angry . As he thought about something, he lightly asked, “How powerful are the opponents?”

Isaac who was still in the mystic state answered slowly, “Assassins…… Terrifying assassins . Their auras are still in the city, and they are under the King of Chambord’s command . It seems like they discovered something…… I can’t see more . Among the people who killed the kids, the most powerful one is a Nine-Star Assassin, and he has insane assassination skills . Huh? I can’t trace him……”

“King of Chambord!” Mellberg looked at the Five Sword Sky Mountain that was protected by the 12 Golden Saint Mountains in afar and smiled .

“He sure is a clever kid; he finally discovered the strangeness? He sure is powerful . He is able to pull out all the teams of elites that I chose myself in a night . No wonder those people are concerned about him . Hehehe, unfortunately, he is still too weak, and this little dragon that hasn’t matured yet is going to be slayed . There are too many powerful masters involved in this operation, and even that force is in . Hahaha, we will just record this massacre on the book for now, and we will clear it on the night of the wedding . Let’s go! Tell the masters in other areas not to move . ”

After he said that, energy flames flashed, and all four disappeared .

They were all Moon-Class Elites .

……

At the same time, in the big hotel that the [Fire Blood Mercenary Group] rented as their temporary headquarters .

By the window on the fourth floor, which was the highest floor, there stood a figure who was wearing a delicate gold mask and a large fancy robe; it was hard to tell whether this person was a male or a female .

At the moment, the hands were behind the back of this person, and this person was looking at the crowded street outside this building . All kinds celebratory decorations were hung on the streets and the buildings, and it was clear that the citizens of Chambord were enjoying this atmosphere .

“Did you guys find cues? Where did Laura and others go?” This person asked lightly after a while .

“It is hard to figure it out . From the information we have, we are sure it is the King of Chambord who did this . Laura and others must have been discovered, and we aren’t sure if they are still alive or not . ”

Behind this person with the gold mask were three muscular and tough men who looked almost identical to each other . Their thick black hair was tied in braids that reached their waists, and they only wore cross belts on their upper body, each carrying a huge ax on his back . They wore leather shorts and leather battle boots, showing their thick hairy legs .

The person who answered was one of them .

“Oh? Laura is a peak Five-Star Mage . Although she isn’t the most powerful, she is smart, careful, and has many magic items on her . When she was in danger, she couldn’t even use any of the items of alert us . You guys only discovered that something is wrong when our ten hiding spots were pulled out . It is clear that the person who captured Laura is powerful, far beyond her level . If it weren’t the King of Chambord himself, it would be a master who is at least close to Moon-Class . ”

The person with the gold mask slowly analyzed . From the tiny pieces of information, the analysis wasn’t far off the truth .

“What should we do next?” The muscular man who answered this person’s question asked .
