MTL - I Like This Dream!-v2 Chapter 81
On the evening of the third day, An Xu opened his eyes, feeling uncomfortable.
Her head was groggy, like a bear just waking up from hibernation. The people next to him were chattering, but An Xu didn't have the heart to listen, nor did he have the energy to react, so he let them pull him out of bed, dress him up, and send him to the carriage.
The only good news is that she no longer feels hungry.
Anxu felt neither hungry nor full. She wasn't sleepy, but she couldn't get up the energy to face everything in front of her, like a robot lacking energy, or an office worker hanging on the bus early in the morning on a weekday with a blank mind. In this way, she was dragged down to the palace in a daze, endured the king's opening speech half asleep, and finally was pushed up to accept the knighthood in a daze. She was not the only one to accept the knighthood. Miss Anna's dull expression was regarded as over-excited, and she didn't appear abrupt in a row of quasi-jazz.
Congratulations, the steps of the conferring ceremony are very simple. The quasi-jazz knelt down, bowed their heads and read the words of allegiance in unison (people in a daze here can also get away with it), and then the king encouraged them, and the servants distributed red ribbons, gold badges and white tail rings-symbolizing the blood of the gods and the king's blood respectively. heart and bones of the prophet. The quasi-jazz wore the above items, and when the king touched the top of their heads and left shoulders with the sword, the conferring was completed.
Caleb was sweating, staring at Miss Sullivan, who was wandering in the sky, and kept praying that nothing unexpected happened. He watched Miss Sullivan pass the oath of allegiance in a pretentious manner in the crowd, half-opened her eyes and obediently asked the servant to put the ribbon on her, put on the badge, and finally pushed the small tail ring on her little finger. Seeing this, Caleb was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that there would be no more problems.
He was too happy.
An Xu's eyes blinked, then slowly opened wide. Something stubbornly pierced through the fog of chaos, directly entered her consciousness, and even hooked her out of her own world.
She suddenly felt a strong appetite, and her senses returned instantly, causing her to raise her head suddenly, twitching her nose to look around. Just like an animal that has fallen into dormancy due to lack of food, when it finds a prey that is close at hand, all the stored energy is mobilized instantly, and it is used desperately for food.
It took less than a second for An Xu to discover the source of his appetite.
White tail ring.
It was a tail ring carved from the bones of alien animals. The initials of Sullivan and the coat of arms of the royal family of Toland were cleverly combined, which was extremely simple and beautiful. But that's not the point, the point is that there is white powder on the inner ring of the ring, An Xu put his finger close to his mouth and licked it.
That's right, this is it.
Caleb covered his mouth and almost jumped out of his seat. He saw Sullivan's quasi-family advocate opened his mouth, and swallowed the tail ring in one gulp.
The king's sword was resting on the first quasi-jar, and everyone's eyes were focused there. For a moment, except for Caleb who was staring nervously at An Xu, no one noticed what the third quasi-jar did-who would have imagined what! Besides, she is too fast! At this moment, she is not fighting alone. The great white shark jumping up from the water and the Nile crocodile discarding the dead wood camouflage are with her, and the hunting genes in biological evolution for thousands of years are with her. Miss Sullivan's bite movement is so So fast that one couldn't help but think it was a miracle she didn't bite off her own fingers together.
Caleb winked at her desperately, praying that the ancestor was just sleepy and drowsy, and would spit it out immediately after tasting something wrong. Caleb himself didn't quite believe this kind of self-consolation. He had personally seen Miss Sullivan chewing crystal nuclei in her sleep yesterday. Bones are harder to chew than nuclei, right? He hoped in vain, only to see Miss Sullivan moved her mouth, frowned, groaned her throat, and swallowed the tail ring whole.
The king's sword caught the shoulder of the second quasi-sergeant, and Caleb nearly passed out.
If there is no accident, this matter will definitely be discovered, and the loss of the tail ring will be regarded as a serious imperial misconduct. However, this was not as serious as Caleb feared, because the conferring ceremony was doomed to fail.
"Strange beast!" Someone from outside ran in scrambling and shouted hysterically, "In the palace... a strange beast!"
The solemn ceremony was interrupted, and Richard II subconsciously wanted to reprimand him, but his expression changed before he could exit. The neighing of wild beasts, and the heavy vibration that made the ground tremble came quickly. The messenger who collapsed on the ground actually brought meaningless news.
But within a few breaths, people saw a black smoke-like wave of beasts from the window.
"Why are there strange beasts in the palace?" Richard II glared at the Royal Knights.
The nobles began to panic. The head of the Royal Knights stuttered and said in panic, "The guards of the palace didn't find anything unusual..."
"Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Roland stepped out of the crowd and interrupted the explanation of the head of the Knights, "Do you want to call back the troops stationed in Urburg?"
Richard II gave the dereliction of duty commander a hard look, nodded, then opened the window, and threw his sword at the herd of beasts in the distance. The unopened ceremonial sword was wrapped by an invisible force, and it spun rapidly in mid-air, stabbing heavily into the herd of beasts like a drill, piercing through six or seven huge beasts along the way. The court entertainers cheered immediately, and the restless expressions of the nobles calmed down a lot because of this blow. The Royal Knights gathered quickly to guard the hall where 70% of the rulers of Yamenan gathered. Roland began to organize the nobles to gather formation and prepare to evacuate.
The sound of clashing weapons resounded in vain in the orderly hall.
Two figures came out from the king's shadow, both of them were holding short daggers that were most favored by assassins, and the daggers were glowing with a faint blue light. In the blink of an eye, they had gone through more than a dozen moves. Richard II rushed to the largest candlestick and shouted: "Guards! Take down the traitor Ronald!"
Prince Ronald exclaimed inwardly that it was a pity that the king had indeed prepared a shadow power user. He made no excuses, Richard II made it clear that he planned to take him down first, regardless of whether he had evidence, and he had reached the time when he had no need to hide.
Countless shadows squirmed and turned into masked assassins. The supernatural beings from the prince's side rushed towards the king and the important officials sent by the king. A wall of air rose around Prime Minister Roland, who was immediately staggered by the successive assassins. They didn't care about gains or losses at all, and focused on attacking, even if they would be easily killed by the guards. Where do so many shadow powers come from? Roland's face changed slightly. Could it be that the Holy See has reached the point of providing cannon fodder to the Prince regardless of the cost?
When the first batch of alien beasts rushed near the main hall, the situation fell into complete chaos.
This has nothing to do with Andy.
She was mixed in the crowd, with her head down, and no one noticed the out of place look on her face. A certain kind of energy centered on her stomach and spread to every cell in her body. An Xu felt like a machine that was finally refueled after a long dry burn, and the whole body felt comfortable.
Her fingers were twitching, her legs were trembling, and her bones were cracking, but her body, which couldn't feel the pain, didn't feel it, only seeing the red dots that appeared on the back of the shoe. An Xu reached out to wipe away the nosebleed, pinched his nose until the blood stopped flowing, then raised his head and found that there was no one around.
The melee between assassins and guards and the attack of alien beasts caused people to run away crying and screaming. When the catastrophe was approaching, even the royal family who advertised that they flowed golden blood behaved like ordinary people. Of course, those who were running away would not avoid An Xu who was standing in the middle of the road, but when they bumped into this person who blocked the way, their skin felt like needle **** when they touched each other. They hurriedly avoided, like a stream of water split by a stubborn stone.
An Xu looked back, and he could still see the figure of the slow runner who didn't look back. She turned her head back, and in front of her was the wall that was smashed during the fight. Through the big hole, she saw the raging beast tide rushing towards here.
She walked in the direction of the beast tide.
If An Xu was the Queen of Thunder who used to shine in the sky, even a herd of beasts controlled by instinct would feel her danger to some extent. But now An Xu looks no different from ordinary people, there is nothing unusual about him, with a pair of calm light golden eyes. The only abnormality lies in her behavior of not retreating but advancing in the face of the beast horde.
The beast tide was getting closer and closer, and the fastest running beast could already smell the subtle smell of blood on the girl's body, as well as something delicious in the blood that made her eyes red. The sickle weasel rolled up its body and rolled towards the girl like a ball, leaving deep marks on the ground where it rolled, and even stones were crushed by its sickle-like claws. Once it hits a weasel, any flesh and blood will be shattered.
The gleaming thorn ball hit An Xu, and then it disappeared.
The massive attack ended without beginning and end, and even the other beasts competing with it for its prey didn't realize that the disaster was imminent. They were only one step behind this sickle weasel, disappearing in front of the girl one after another.
Slow down time many times, record it with a full-angle camera, and then play it out frame by frame to understand what happened. The strange beast rushed towards An Xu, the strange beast touched An Xu, and the part where the strange beast touched An Xu disappeared inch by inch, as if it had rushed into some portal. Slow down and zoom in a bit, and you can see that there is still a layer of lightning between the strange beast and An Xu, and the lightning instantly destroys everything it touches, and then engulfs it, leaving no dust left.
Rather than saying that there is a portal in An Xu's body, it is more appropriate to compare her whole body to an efficient and scary mouth leading to an invisible stomach.
An Xu smashed his mouth, he really felt as if he had eaten something. She smiled contentedly, and raised her feet to face the black herd of beasts.
Thanks for the hospitality.
