Riding and Slashing

Chapter 248 How can the emperor be so easy to deal with?

"Your Excellency Li Ang, why did you come here? To be honest, I have some doubts...does what happened here have anything to do with you?"

Emperor Mario squinted his eyes at Li Ang who suddenly appeared from the corner. His Majesty the Emperor obviously didn't understand the situation.

He knew that Li Ang sent troops to deal with the Snake Worship Cult, but he didn't know that the Snake Worship Cult's army had been killed by Li Ang alone-Emperor Marius had been held hostage by Kairos recently, so of course he didn't receive any information.

"Your Majesty Mario, I really didn't expect our first meeting to be in such a situation. However, you shouldn't doubt a friend who has been providing selfless help... And, if I were you, I would worry about my own Life is safe. This matter is obviously aimed at you, and Kairos is obviously just being deceived..."

Li Ang beckoned, and a large group of strong men emerged from the abandoned houses in the village and surrounded Kairos' guards.

"Li Ang... What are you going to do? Are you deliberately leading someone to ambush here? What do you know?"

Seeing so many of Li Ang's subordinates suddenly appearing, Kailos regained his strength. He got up from the ground and asked Li Ang with a frown.

The number of personal guards he brought into the village was not many, only a few dozen shadow centurions, and now these personal guards gradually gathered back to back with some anxiety.

"You think too much, I don't have time to ambush you... I'm just not sure if there are any members of the Snake Worship Sect among your subordinates - after all, according to what you said just now, your whole family has already taken refuge in the Snake Worship Sect, Naturally, I have to be careful... His Majesty Marius, would you like to stand by my side first?"

Li Ang waved to Emperor Marius, motioning the abducted emperor to leave the dangerous place.

Emperor Marius looked around, took a few steps back, withdrew from the control of the shadowy centurions around him, and moved towards Li Ang.

Several shadow centurions looked at each other, but no one moved.

Only Kairos drew out the throwing spear he carried with him.

"Kailos... In this situation, you are still planning to do something to kill the king yourself, right? This temple was opened by me, but I guarantee that it will look like this after I smashed it, I But I didn't see any people with snake skin scales on their necks. And you should be able to see that my people don't dare to get blood from these corpses - the things here have nothing to do with me... I was only here to find my team members .”

Li Ang said quickly. Although he has more people in the village, he still wants to avoid conflicts as much as possible. The shadow centurion beside Kailos is not easy to deal with.

"Killing the king? I won't do that kind of stupid thing... But I can't let you take His Majesty away..."

After Kailos pulled out the spear, he didn't look at Li Ang, but glanced at his own men, probably evaluating the combat effectiveness of both sides.

From the looks of it, Kailos did not intend to give up easily.

Sure enough, any father is very persistent when faced with the matter of saving his son.

"Haven't you ever thought that the so-called priest is just lying to you? Your son is not here..."

Li Ang looked at Kailos and shook his head: "If your son can still act—even if he can act like a puppet, that guy will definitely let your son come forward to contact you... In this case, only Can explain..."

"No! Shut up!"

Kairos yelled with his eyes wide open, with a look of despair and madness on his face: "My son must be alive...".

Probably only when something happened to his own son would such a big man like Kailos change his temperament and make it difficult to communicate.

But he was still somewhat rational after all, Li Ang's troops surrounded him at this moment, and of course he didn't attack anyone, but just confronted Li Ang.

Being so stiff was obviously not an option, Anson didn't know where he was, and Li Ang still had to find a way to find his own medical officer, but he didn't have time to spend here.

Just when the lord was planning to use force to solve the problem, something strange happened.

"My lord, it...it moved!"

Klose suddenly pointed his eyes straight at the altar, as if he had seen a ghost.

In fact, it was indeed a ghost—everyone turned their heads to look, and the dead man whose chest and abdomen had been opened, and the heart in his chest was not beating at all, actually started to move!

Now Li Ang understood why Kairos was so persistent. The Snake Cult could bring back such a fatally injured person, so resuscitating Kairos' son seemed not empty talk.

It's just that I don't know what the resurrected person will lose...

"When it comes out, kill this damn thing... It has obviously become as powerful as Castro..."

Sigismund muttered, making several gestures with the big sword in his hand.

The monster inside the altar has already torn off the iron chains that bound its hands and feet—a few nails that nailed the chain to the four-pointed star stand were pulled out by it, seemingly effortlessly, just like that The nails are just so-so embedded in the tofu.

But the nail was half a foot long, and the four-pointed star table was obviously not a rotten object, but a solid wooden table that looked very strong...

This naturally implies inhuman power.

But at this time, no one dared to go inside the temple. The pus and blood inside could be seen as a sign of the Red Death, and no one wanted to be contaminated.

The monster who had already sat up in the altar turned its head, its eyes had completely turned into orange vertical pupils.

Afterwards, the monster was about to step over the bleeding pool—this action seemed a little bigger, and its intestines slid out along the open abdominal cavity...

The monster seemed to be a little irritable. It tore off its own intestines, and seemed to have ripped off some other internal organs, and then stepped straight out of the blood pool, with black pus and blood dripping all over its body.

In just a few short steps, the chest and abdomen that had been cut open turned into a large black space, but he was still 'alive', and walked steadily with bloody footprints step by step.

"Your Excellency Li Ang...I beg you...don't hinder me, and...let him get out of here!"

Kailos also looked at the species that probably wasn't human anymore who came down from the altar, and suddenly turned his head and said something to Li Ang.

"Karos, are you crazy? Of course I don't want to deal with you, but that thing is different, that thing is obviously not human!"

Li Ang looked at Kailos with mentally retarded eyes: "Didn't you see that the internal organs of that thing were ripped off by himself? Could it be that you know this guy?"

Indeed, it would be unreasonable to let it go after this situation...

"Of course I know it's not a human... I just think he doesn't seem to have his own consciousness, but it will definitely go to the person who controls it... Maybe follow him and you can find the priest of the Snake Cult! You can also find mine Antonius!"

It seems that Kailos is still sensible after all, or in other words, in order to find and rescue his son, he will try any method.

In fact, Li Ang also felt that this method might work.

"It is really necessary to find out about this matter...Your Excellency Li Ang, or you can ignore this matter, I believe you have nothing to do with the Snake Worship Cult...Let Kairos investigate this matter by himself."

Emperor Mario also nodded to Li Ang.

Li Ang felt that His Majesty Emperor Marius had a big heart. Kairos hijacked him before, but he dared not to block Kairos and asked Kairos to track him down.

But after hesitating for a while, he still signaled his subordinates to get out of the way, watching the monster walk out step by step.

"Karos, I still have to find my medical officer. I really don't care about things here. But I have to tell you something... I just buried the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Snake Cult a few days ago... Before The Snake Worship Sect army that besieged Emperor Lingang has been wiped out, and I guarantee that there will be no one left. Perhaps, the person you are looking for has already fled far away, and you may not be able to find him if you follow this thing."

Li Ang kindly reminded Kailos.

Kailos looked at Li Ang and nodded: "I must thank you for what you have done...Actually, I also heard about your selfless help to Bacchus a few days ago..."

After speaking, he turned to look at Emperor Marius: "Your Majesty, believe me, I never thought of murdering you, I just wanted to try the king's blood that the priest said... If I can find the priest this time, I will arrest him and bring him back to accuse you... Besides, Your Majesty, if you want to carry out reforms, you should have gotten rid of me long ago..."

After speaking, Kailos led the troops and followed the monster slowly to the outside of the village.

Emperor Marius watched Kailos leave slowly, and sighed sadly.

"Your Majesty Mario, you just let him leave like this?"

Li Ang looked at Emperor Marius with deep doubts in his eyes, did he really let Kailos go like this?

"You...killed the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Snake Worship Cult? Where are you?"

Emperor Mario didn't answer, turned his head and looked Li Ang up and down several times, it seemed that he wanted to get to know the lord again.

"Near the village of Fidner...Oh, by the way, in order to kill the army of the Snake Cult, Governor Levius and his son used their bodies as bait. Unfortunately, they all sacrificed their lives for the country, and their deaths were quite... heroic."

Li Ang thought about it carefully, and changed the adjective for Levius' tragic death.

"I know exactly what kind of person Levius is. I'm afraid the word heroic can't be used on him... Earl Leon, I understand that there will be a price to pay for getting rid of the Snake Cult. If the empire pays The price is only Levius and his son, so I should actually thank you... Are you interested in the Northern Governor of the Empire?"

As expected, Emperor Mario and Justus wore the same pair of trousers, and they even used the same rhetoric to win them over...

"Forget it, Your Majesty... I just 'captured' Karen Deer Castle not long ago, and I will continue to threaten the Bacchus Empire with thousands of soldiers in Karen Deer Castle... If you make me the governor, I can't do anything with you National Confession... Let's go, I will send you to Boshi City, where General Kryon is...By the way, I hope we can be more formal next time we meet..."

Li Ang shook his head, beckoning his subordinates to leave.

"You don't need to send me off... In fact, someone has been escorting me all the time. I'm very relieved that a master like you didn't find them... Sura!"

Emperor Marius shook his head with a smile, then turned his head and shouted behind him.

From several dark corners, several people wearing wolf head helmets stood up at the same time: "Your Majesty, the shadow wolves have followed..."

Li Ang's eyes widened. These guys were hiding so secretly. He brought hundreds of people with him, but no one could find them!
No wonder he let Governor Kairos leave so easily, it turned out that he sent someone to follow him...

Similarly, it's no wonder that his previous behavior didn't look like a hostage. It turned out that Emperor Marius had such a secret army following him all the time—it's really hard to say who was the one who was hijacked...

"This is General Sura, the Shadow Wolf from the Ashborn Empire. Count Leon, we are friends now, so I will let you see him...but when we are enemies, he may always be hiding in the It's dark, so be careful."

Emperor Marius introduced Sura to Li Ang, but General Sura obviously didn't intend to show up, nodded at a distance, and then retreated into the dark place again.

"Your Majesty is really good at it... By the way, I once saw some spies called 'Vipers' under Governor Justus. Do they have anything to do with General Sura's people?"

Li Ang shook his head and felt a little emotional. The secret spies of the Bacchus Empire are really complete and varied, and they are indeed more fancy than the kingdoms of the Lion and Raven.

"They were some spies trained by the shadow wolves. At the beginning, they were to deal with the Snake Cult. They needed someone to go undercover to the Snake Cult—so they were called 'Vipers'. The Snake Cult will not be exposed..."

Emperor Marius replied very seriously, as if he was sincerely suggesting to Li Ang: "Like the Shadow Wolves, they are warriors stooping to walk in the dark, maybe you should also build such a team... If you don't want to If killed by Sarleon or another king..."

"I am a loyal and brave minister of the Lion Kingdom, how could I be killed by my own king... Ha, Your Majesty, since someone protects you, I will take my leave..."

Li Ang shook his head, turned around and left.

Emperor Marius is obviously difficult to deal with, and the shadow wolves of General Sulla are indeed very dangerous. Maybe one of the Silver Hands can beat them both in a frontal battle, but the shadow wolves are obviously specialized in shuttling in the dark. , probably only Lisa Dilan can deal with them.

The lord felt that he should find Anson quickly, and then go back to Karen Lulu Castle to stay, so that Li Sadilan also hurriedly formed a shadow army walking in the secret place.

……

At this moment, Anson was actually less than twenty miles away from the lord.

There was a reason why Li Ang didn't find him - Anson was in Sava Lake at this time, on a boat.

It was an inland river boat, the kind of wooden boat commonly used by fishermen, only powered by oars, only about ten meters long and more than one meter wide.

There were two other people on board with Anson, a man and a woman.

The man was unconscious, his whole body was swollen, and his face was covered with blue scales.

And the woman was wearing a worn leather armor, holding a spear in her hand, testing the depth of the lake.
