In a blink of an eye, another three days passed.
The sky in the distance was slightly white, and the sun shone through the clouds on the earth. It was originally a vibrant scene, but the Tucker Capital in the distance was filled with solemnity.
Black and others came not far from the king.
"This is……"
Looking at the corpse hanging on the city wall in the distance, Black's face turned gloomy and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
Above the city walls, there were corpses hanging, among which the corpses of the queen and the twelve princes were in the middle, and the rest were knights loyal to the queen.
"OMG!"
Next to him, Glen took a breath of air and a pale look appeared on his face. Although he had never seen the queen and the twelve princes, his identities were seen from the luxurious clothes.
"Sir, what should we do?"
Sam Knight looked nervous and asked Black hesitantly.
Black looked thoughtful, but didn't say anything.
Now the capital of Tucker has been completely martial law, and the flag belonging to the Four Princes has been raised above the city wall. It is obvious that this place has been controlled by him.
"Is the Fourth Prince crazy?"
Next to him, Sam couldn't help but say, ": As soon as the old king passed away, he couldn't wait to attack the queen and the twelve princes. Wouldn't he be afraid of the joint siege of the dukes?"
Black shook his head and sighed in his heart.
It seems that the chaos in the Tucker Kingdom is even more serious than I imagined. In order to compete for the throne, the four princes have almost reached a level of madness, without regard for any blood and family affection.
Originally, Black was still thinking about how to bring his men into the capital.
But now, the plan is about to be given up. The king capital has been firmly guarded by the Fourth Prince and the people from the Western Frontier. A large number of soldiers are stationed at the gate of the city, and no one is allowed to enter or exit. Black and others are also hiding in the bushes in the distance.
Next to Black, Enzo looked at him.
Using the chip scanning function, he saw a notice posted on the city wall, which showed in bright red font that the queen and the twelve princes poisoned the old king Ander, so he was executed by the fourth prince.
Moreover, before his death, the old king Ander had passed the throne to the fourth prince Anthony, and the Duke of the West was appointed as the regent.
"Rully traitor!"
Black's eyes were cold, and he also saw the content on the notice, and his heart was full of anger. The fourth prince Anthony really did everything he could to seize the throne. The notice asked other kings to return to the kings to attend the funeral of the old king. Any kings who did not come back within the deadline would be dealt with for treason.
However, all the kings at this time may not be so stupid.
The fourth prince Anthony, since he dared to openly kill the queen and the twelve princes, he obviously would not have any mercy on the other kings. At this moment, the kings who dared to return to the capital, would probably have a way to die if they waited for them.
"His Highness the Third Prince..."
Black murmured to himself, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. At this time, the kings had been controlled by the fourth prince and the Western Region. His only choice now seemed to be the only option to defect to the third prince Andre.
Although Black did not clearly take the team before and chose to become the loyalist of the third prince Andre, Black has always admired the quality of the third prince. At this time, the fourth prince Anthony caused trouble in the capital, and he had to find a king's blood to end the chaos in the Tucker Kingdom.
The third prince Andre is obviously a good choice.
Among the five competitors to the throne in Tucker Kingdom, the twelve princes have been killed by the fourth prince Anthony. The remaining eldest prince Ansica is too reckless and has a irritable personality. In Black's perception, he is definitely not a qualified successor to the throne.
As for the fifth prince Ankate, although he is strong and has a high prestige in the army, his attitude towards civilians has made Black resist. The other party may be able to become a wise king, but he will never become a kind king.
Therefore, Black only has three princes left to choose.
The third prince Andre is not only the orthodox king's blood, but also has the support of the Southern border. He has a high chance of competing for the throne. He is also very personal trained with Black and will never reject Black's surrender.
"let's go."
Black took a deep breath, turned around and said to everyone, "The King Capital has been controlled by the Western Region at this moment, and staying here for a moment means more dangers. If it were not for the purpose of determining the situation of the King Capital, Black even planned to go directly to the Southern Region.
Then everyone left the capital and headed towards the southern border.
Enzo did not refuse Black's arrangement. He had just arrived in the scarlet world and was still in a very "weak" state. Now, his strength is constantly recovering.
Enzo did not forget the twelve wizards who had arrived in the scarlet world before.
Although it is not clear what they encountered, this seemingly peaceful world, since it can make the twelve wizards disappear, is enough to prove the degree of danger. Enzo must at least recover to the strength of the third-level living body before he can make the next plan.
“There is still a lot of time.”
Enzo murmured to himself that for him, what he lacked the least was time, and he didn't need to rush to conquer the scarlet world. Restoring his strength is the most important thing now.
...
After leaving the capital, everyone headed towards the southern border.
Enzo's memory of seizing Covell before was that he had already learned a lot about the Tucker Kingdom. The area of ​​this kingdom was not large, and even the entire scarlet world was almost the same as the area of ​​the Forest Spirit World.
If compared with the northern continent, it would be a huge difference.
Under the leadership of Black, everyone headed towards the southern border, and time soon passed another day.
Above the barren land, the sun was hanging high in the sky, emitting light and warmth, illuminating the surroundings. In the lush grass, the subtle sound gradually sounded, and the team led by Black was moving forward.
Enzo walked at the end of the team, sighing on his face.
Since embarking on the wizard journey, it seems that he has not passed by in such a backward way for a long time. If he is in the wizard world, using rules to open the portal, he can directly cross the two regions of the domain.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! But now, Enzo can only walk with two legs.
However, he didn't care about this. He just wanted to make a living in the early stage of the Scarlet World. As his strength recovered a little bit, he could do more things, and at least he had to recover to level three.
Suddenly, a sound of horse hooves came from afar.
Black stopped, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. The sound was still far from this area, but the number of the other party was definitely not a small number, and even the ground was trembling slightly, at least tens of thousands of people.
"It's the prince's army!"
Black's heart thumped, and a trace of thought appeared on his face. It was only one day away from the king's capital. It was likely that the news of the murder of the queen and the twelve princes spread, and a certain prince led his army to attack the fourth prince.
"Secret!" Black whispered.
Everyone immediately hid in the forest not far away and hid themselves. Before they were uncertain about the identity of the visitor, Black did not dare to show up rashly, but he thought in his heart that he hoped that the coming army would be the southern border.
As the third prince who has the qualifications to compete for the king, he is the grandson of the Duke of the Southern Realm. If he can go to the royal capital to attack the fourth prince under the banner of revenge for the queen, it will definitely be of great benefit to him.
However, as an army appeared in sight, Black frowned slightly.
"Your Highness, the Great Prince?"
A hint of hesitation appeared on Black's face. The army in front of the road, holding the banner of the Great Prince, was the burly knight in charge, and the direction of the other party's advance was obviously the capital.
If nothing unexpected happens, the eldest prince intends to attack the fourth prince.
Herodian!
With the neighing of war horses, the army of the eldest prince Anxika suddenly stopped. The tall and tall prince Anxika looked towards the forest and shouted coldly.
"Come out, stop hiding!"
Black was shocked, but then sighed. Since the eldest prince Ansica dared to go to the capital, he must have certain strength. He may have a legendary knight under his command, so it is normal for him to find that he and others are also.
Then, Black and others walked out of the forest.
"You're...Blake?"
Looking at Black who was walking out of the forest, the eldest prince Ansica was slightly stunned, and then said in surprise, "Why are you here?"
As the commander of the Seventh Legion, Black naturally met the eldest prince.
The two had a few conversations at the royal palace banquet, but they couldn't talk about friendship. Black thought that the eldest prince was too reckless and was very suitable as a general, but he was much worse than inheriting the throne.
"Blake has seen His Highness the Great Prince."
Black bowed slightly and sighed, ": The front line war failed, the Seventh Army was wiped out. I was ordered by the king to return to the capital for trial, but when I arrived at the capital, I found that it was already controlled by the four princes."
"So you came from the direction of the capital."
The eldest prince Anxika suddenly realized, then a trace of anger flashed in her eyes and said, ": This bad species of Anthony dares to kill his father. I went to the capital this time to avenge my father!"
"The Fourth Prince killed His Majesty Ander?" Black was stunned.
"What? Don't you know yet?"
The eldest prince Ansica raised an eyebrow and nodded, "It's not your fault. I just returned to the kingdom from the front line. It's normal for him to not understand the crimes Anthony committed. My father's health has always been very good, but this time he suddenly died suddenly. It must be Anthony's murder."
Black's face stagnated and sighed helplessly in his heart.
Although the eldest prince Ansica was older, his personality had not changed much. With no evidence, he dared to say that the king died at the hands of Anthony. Such a personality is really unconvincing.
Then, Black raised his head.
The army of the eldest prince Ansica is at least tens of thousands of people, and is already a considerable force in the Tucker Kingdom today, but it seems that it is far from enough to compete with the fourth prince Anthony, who has support from the Western Frontier.
"Blake, what are you going to do next?" At this time, the eldest prince Ansica asked again.
Black pondered for a moment and said, ": The fourth prince Anthony poisoned the king. There is no conclusion yet, but it is a fact that he killed the queen and the twelfth prince. Therefore, I plan to go to the southern border to report this to His Highness Andre."
After hearing Black's words, the eldest prince Ansica frowned slightly.
"So... are you planning to defect to the third brother?"
The eldest prince Anxika looked unhappy and raised his head and said coldly, "I am the eldest son of my father, the person who is most qualified to inherit the throne. As the commander of the Seventh Army, you do not swear allegiance to me now, but you plan to defect to the third brother!"
Black frowned slightly and said, ": Your Highness, Your Majesty Ander, although His Majesty, has died, the crown prince has not yet been confirmed. If you want to inherit the throne, you may still need to be recognized by the four major dukes?"
"Hmph! What are the bullshit four dukes?"
The eldest prince Anxika snorted coldly and said proudly, "As the king's eldest son, I should inherit the throne after my father dies, and I do not need anyone's approval, including those four old guys."
After saying that, the eldest prince Ansica looked at Black.
"Blake, as the new king, I now order you to swear allegiance to go to the capital of the king to attack Anthony!"
Black's face changed when he heard Ansica's words.
The eldest prince is obviously planning to force himself to surrender. Such behavior obviously has no kingly style at all.
"Sorry, Your Highness, I can't obey my duty."
Black's face was cold, but he shook his head firmly. Even if he went to the southern border, he had no intention of swearing to the third prince Andre, and it was even more impossible for him to surrender to an existence like the eldest prince Ansica.
"Blake, you'd better think clearly!"
A trace of murderous intent appeared on the face of the eldest prince Anxika and said coldly, "You should know what the consequences will be if you violate the king's order."
Black shouldn't have died, but his hand was placed on the sword.
"According to the laws of the Kingdom of Tucker, His Majesty Ander did not leave any will. Every king's blood is qualified to inherit the throne, but only if it is supported by the dukes."
Black raised his head, not afraid of the eyes of the eldest prince Ansica.
"Hmph! It's really a hard rock."
The eldest prince Anxika sneered and said quietly, "It seems that you have made up your mind to defect to the third brother?"
"Since that's the case, then go and die!"
After saying that, the eldest prince Ansica suddenly raised his hand, and the soldiers behind him bent their bows and arrows, aiming them at Black and others.
Everyone's faces changed one after another.
"Your Highness, you!" Black's pupils shrank, and he never expected that the eldest prince Ashke would suddenly take action.
The next moment, the rain of arrows came quickly.
Fortunately, there was a forest behind. Everyone was looking for cover when the arrow rain hit, and no one was injured or killed. However, with the order of the eldest prince Anxika, the army had already surrounded the forest.
"Give you a chance last time, Black."
The eldest prince Ansica rode on the horse, staring at Black not far away expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Now I swear to surrender to me, I can forgive you for your offense, otherwise I will punish you for treason!"
"The throne is not settled, and Black will not surrender to anyone."
