Chapter 181 Bloody Door

Dozens of minutes ago, under the city gate, the blue flag of King Bru was fluttering in the air, and Bluebeard Giles' team had arrived under the city gate.

There was a gate-shaped carving on the surface of their gray armor.

Among them, there are traces of dried blood!
On the city wall, the defenders had different expressions. They looked at the army in armor and weapons, and couldn't help feeling frightened.

"What should we do? Should we stop Marshal Giles..."

"Are you kidding me? Shouldn't Marshal Giles be fighting in the capital? Why is he back?"

Several officers from Dante's army were talking to each other in whispers.

Their expressions were different, but they all showed panic.

"I think, should we open it? Marshal Giles shouldn't punish us, right? After all, at that time..."

"Yeah, I think with so many people, we can't defend the city even if we attack it, right?"

“But what if the Sri Lankans come back?”

The non-commissioned officers whispered to each other. In the past, under the strict management of Marshal Giles, they were in awe of Marshal Bluebeard's pressure to the point of fear.

As they chatted, they looked at a garrison left by the Sri Kingdom not far away.

The garrison was still commanding a small number of Sri Kingdom troops, as well as other Bru soldiers on defense.

"Sir, we may not be able to resist..."

A Dante sergeant walked carefully to Officer Sriracha and whispered.

The officer's answer was concise and to the point:

"Protect me with your life! God is on the side of my Sri Kingdom. If you're injured, I can still heal you. What's there to be afraid of?"

Looking at Giles' army, they even began to make siege postures.

The non-commissioned officers who had been under Dante's command felt cold sweat on their hands that were holding their spears.

Below, Marshal Giles, with a blue beard under a terrifying visor, walked out of the army. He looked at the Blue soldiers holding bows and crossbows on the city wall, without any fear on his face.

"Soldiers of Dante Territory, open the door! Your lord has returned!"

Giles' voice seemed very steady, but everyone who heard it could sense a genuine coldness in it. Those who knew Giles's daily behavior felt it even more deeply.

"Marshal Giles, the Territory of Dante is now occupied by the Kingdom of Sri. We do not wish to be your enemy. If you do not wish to suffer defeat, please leave!"

At this time, seeing that no one from the Blue garrison responded, the Nasri officer stepped forward and said, "Marshal Giles, your Blue Kingdom is acting against God and will never win!

Since you have already fled from battle twice, since you cannot win, why not dismount and surrender!"

Marshal Giles' voice sounded again, still without any fluctuations, but the coldness in his words penetrated even deeper into his bones!
He did not respond to Officer Sri, but said to the other Bru defenders:

"You know you can't hold the city, so since you surrendered the city before, why not this time?
Do you think it's easier to face me?"

As he spoke, he raised the lance in his hand. Behind him, hundreds of cavalrymen also raised their lances with him. In the reflection of the sunlight, they looked like cold stars!

"My soldiers, you should know the consequences. This is your last chance. Consider carefully. Otherwise, think about what you will face after the city is captured."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in front of the city gate became even more solemn.

All the Blue soldiers fell silent. Giles's prestige in Dent County caused some timid soldiers to tremble uncontrollably with their swords in their hands!

Only the officer from the Sri Kingdom still pointed his sword downwards and shouted:

"Marshal Giles, don't waste your energy. You have no morals or integrity. No one here will listen to you—"

There was a hint of determination on his face. He had no doubt about his chances of winning and did not notice the increasingly panicked expressions of the Blue soldiers.

Until the next second, a pair of armored hands covered his mouth from behind!

The dagger pierced his neck.

On the city wall, the not-so-large number of Swiss soldiers were also controlled by the larger number of Bru defenders.

"Quick, open the city gate--"

An officer of the Blue garrison spoke hastily, a look of dejection on his face, "Welcome our lord back to his loyal territory..."

Without bloodshed, the gate of Dent's territory slowly opened.

Giles Bluebeard led the cavalry into the city. His eyes swept across the faces of the kneeling Blue defenders. The soldiers behind him also raised their lances and firmly guarded the Blue defenders.

"Very good. You opened the door, which means that some of you are still loyal to me. This reduces my anger a lot."

Giles Bluebeard straightened his horse and held the lance in his hand against the chest of a kneeling officer of the Blue garrison.

The officer felt the sharp tip of the gun on his chest and trembled all over, but he didn't dare to say a word of resistance. He just begged for mercy incoherently:
"My Lord, my loyalty to you has never changed..."

"I know."

Bluebeard's voice was cold and ruthless. He said word by word, "But you need to prove yourself. Point out two people who defected to the Sri Kingdom and prove your loyalty!"

The officer was stunned. He turned his head slightly and saw extreme fear on the faces of the other kneeling guards around him!

"What? Do you still need to think about this kind of thing?"

Bluebeard's voice rang out again, like the whisper of a demon.

Upon hearing this, the officer's mind suddenly turned white. He decisively reached out and pointed at the other two guards kneeling beside him:
"Marshal, the two of them have been trying to curry favor with the Sri Lankans. When the Sri Lankans came, they were the first to surrender—"

As soon as these words came out, the two Sri Lankans froze in fear and loudly retorted:

"Marshal, we don't have it!"

"You fart!"

But they only had time to say a few words, and the next moment, sword light flashed, and scarlet blood gushed out from their necks!
Two heads fell to the ground, splashing a glaring red!
"Very well, get up."

Marshal Giles looked at the other Dante defenders and the civilians who had been driven together outside, a hint of coldness appeared on his lips:
"Others, too, will do the same to prove their loyalty and hatred for the Sri Lankans. Do you understand?"

As he spoke, the cavalry behind him began to file into the alleys of the city.

The lances in their hands all flashed with deadly light.

For a moment, screams, pleas for mercy, and the sharp sounds of swords and guns being drawn echoed in the air!
……

A streak of blood splattered on the wall, and a civilian's head rolled to the ground.

Rider Blue kicked the door open, shook off the remaining blood on his sword, and looked inside the house to see the terrified family of three.

"Marshal Giles gave you room to prove your loyalty. You all understand what you should do, right?"

"Master, I, we have been staying in the house and have not gone anywhere..."

The husband of the family of three stood in front of his wife and children and spoke in a trembling voice.

"Oh? Then how do I know whether what you said is true or not? Don't waste time - point out, do you understand?"

"Point, point... I point, the one next door..."

"He's dead. Everyone near your house is dead. Don't point me to someone I don't know where he is. Do you understand?"

The Blue Cavalryman interrupted impatiently, walking towards them while brandishing his shining sword.

"But, but, here, I am the only one..."

The man was halfway through his words when he suddenly froze, as if he understood what the Blue Cavalry was going to do.

"You, you devils! Madmen!"

He screamed in despair, but the Bru cavalryman became even more excited. He took another step forward, with a morbid pleasure in his voice, "Yes, that's right, just like what the Sri Kingdom said, we are the devils - this feeling of killing is so interesting!

As he spoke, a gate-shaped carving on the blood-stained surface of his armor began to glow faintly red as the blood soaked into it.

"It's time, huh?" He raised the sword high in his hand. The family of three in front of him had completely given up on survival and only cursed:

"You devils, you will die!"

The Bru cavalryman had undisguised contempt in his eyes, and swung his sword ruthlessly and forcefully!

The family of three hugging each other and crying had given up hope.

But the next moment, a sword light suddenly flashed through the empty air, cutting the Blue Cavalryman in half, including the sword!

A girl in a red cloak appeared before his eyes.

"It's okay, just hide somewhere safer!"

As Lake spoke, he leaped up and disappeared again.

"The cavalry in this block has been cleared out. Are these Blue Knights really—mad? Why are they slaughtering… the people of their own territory like this?"

Lake murmured, and there were mottled bloodstains on the stone floor under her feet.

Within tens of minutes, countless residents of Dante Territory died on the ground. The legs of these people could never outrun the cavalry led by Marshal Giles.

When these regular troops began to kill, their armor and spears allowed them to easily kill any fleeing ordinary person within their sight.

"I can't find the location of their marshal. These cavalrymen are divided into small groups—they are slaughtering the city!"

The Poro on the other side was also jumping on the house.

He observed the streets around him. Every Blue Cavalryman who appeared within the Poro's casting range would be quickly killed by the Food Curse!
Lake and Poro also saw clearly the actions of these soldiers.

They are massacring the city!
How many people died?

In the direction of the city gate, the corpses piled on the roadside had already become like hills, and blood was flowing everywhere!

Lake's blue eyes were covered with sadness.

Every cavalryman she killed, under the influence of the Star Killing Sword, had his hands stained with the blood of innocent people!

"Who is it? Dare to be in Dent Territory—"

A cavalryman came out of an alley carrying a human head. He saw his teammate not far away was suddenly killed by a sword light that came from nowhere. He hurriedly raised his sword and was on guard.

But it didn't help.

The next moment, Lake's sword pierced his neck under the helmet.

"Huh... I killed him, I killed him, the one hundred and thirty-first one..."

Lake's voice trembled a little. This was the first time she killed so many humans with a sword.

"I've also killed the seventy-fourth. Don't be affected, Lake. Your Star-Slaying Sword sensed it, too, didn't it? I don't know why, but these soldiers have gone crazy.

They are now just monsters in human form. If they are not killed quickly, more innocent people will die."

While comforting Lake, Poro looked away. Two cavalrymen fell off their horses not far away.

A golden light fell from the sky.

The golden bird Sipalo folded its wings and landed next to Lake and Poro.

"Have you found the location of the leader of this army?"

Poro asked.

"I'm not sure."

Golden Bird Sipallo said, "But I saw a small group heading straight towards the castle from another street. The knight leading them seemed to have blue hair..."

"Huh? This crazy Marshal Giles didn't participate in the killing, but went to the castle instead!?"

Poro's pupils shrank, and he thought of the Goethe Kingdom's spies who went to investigate the castle.

If you want to stop this army from killing, killing the army's leader first is always the best strategy. Not to mention, the army's possession by demons is definitely related to Bluebeard!

In the face of such a large-scale army massacring the city, the few Swiss soldiers who had previously occupied Dante's territory, as well as the "Holy Advent Protestant" believers, did not sacrifice themselves.

However, considering their numbers, even if they showed up, there was absolutely no way they could resist such a large number!
"Hmm? Wait a minute, I seem to sense something..."

Just as Poro was thinking, the ground of the entire Dante Territory suddenly shook violently - Poro looked towards the center of the city, and suddenly an invisible, bloody and chaotic energy flow came from the location of the castle.

"what is that?!"

Lake and Poro opened their eyes wide and their hearts trembled.

"No, we have to go there first... Whatever Bluebeard did in the castle, it couldn't be anything good!"

……

Inside Bluebeard's castle, at the bottom of the basement, in front of a bronze door.

"Is this the key?"

The gray-clad spy looked in front of him and saw a haggard-looking woman nod. She then looked at the key in her hand. It was a golden key with an inverted cross pattern engraved on it.

"Yes, can you please take me away from here? I don't want to be with Giles anymore... He is like an inhuman beast."

The gorgeously dressed woman looked at the gray-clad spy, a tear flashing in her eyes.

"Of course, I will take you away from here later. Go to the castle first, and tell me if there are cavalry coming in this direction.

There may be something very dangerous behind this door, it is best not to look."

The gray-clad spy spoke, his eyes fixed on the bronze door in front of him that was engraved with intricate patterns. The smell of blood was strong, and the walls and ground beside the door were a reddish-brown color.

It's like there's a sea of ​​blood behind the door.

The lady, Giles's newest wife, walked tremblingly up the stairs to the first floor of the castle.

But at this moment, a cold arm covered in armor wrapped around the woman's waist.

The blue beard, mingled with the strong smell of blood, approached the woman's ear, and the voice she feared most rang out coldly and gloomily:

"My lady, what were you doing down there? You should still have the key I left for you, right?
And... you should still remember what I said, not to open the deepest door, right?"

Listening to the hellish whispers, the woman's mind went blank. She couldn't utter a complete sentence and didn't even dare to cry. Her legs went weak and she was about to kneel on the ground.

But Bluebeard held the woman's falling body.

His visor had already been removed, revealing a scarred face beneath. He slowly leaned closer, his nose twitching:

"Well, I smell the scent of a strange man. As expected, you are like this too. Every woman is like this—"

My lady, you disappoint me."

Bluebeard moved the hand that was holding the woman's back upwards, gripping her cervical vertebrae, with veins bulging, and slowly applied force.

The woman's screams were drowned out by the sound of her spine exercising.

Blood dripped from the torn neck.

"Ha ha……"

Bluebeard laughed strangely and threw the deformed corpse to the ground.

With his blood-stained hands, he took out the brass key from his breastplate.

On the surface of the key, the blood was indeed spontaneously spreading upwards bit by bit, and the woman's blood covered the last bit of brass.

The entire key turned completely bloody!
"It's done. The last part of the blood sacrifice. It seems I was too conservative before..."
