It's not that she doesn't want to, but the timing is really not good.
Scattered around them were countless corpses, all bearing obvious bullet holes and gunshot wounds.
"The King's army was killed in droves. There is only one possibility here: they dared not fire."
Dia crossed her arms and analyzed the scene before her.
The dozens of soldiers who were killed on that street before met their demise for the same reason.
The surroundings were eerily quiet.
Dia recalled that he and Qiduo had passed through the invisible walls several times, but they hadn't seen a single living person.
The hundreds of people who were originally crowded in this small square were mostly killed in the unexpected attack amidst flying blood and flesh.
Those royal soldiers loyal to the monarchy probably never imagined that they would be betrayed and killed by the very prince they were trying so hard to protect.
As for who did it and what their purpose was, it's difficult to determine.
It could be to weaken the power of the eldest prince who holds some military authority, or it could simply be an attempt to kill.
He walked past the corpses lying haphazardly.
Dia saw several young soldiers staring wide-eyed in resentment, their dead pupils filled with bloodshot veins, their stiff hands gripping their spears tightly.
As dusk settled, the red glow of the setting sun quietly fell upon the square, illuminating the mangled corpses in a crimson hue that sent a chill down one's spine.
"Wow...wow..."
A few mournful cries of crows drifted from afar, accompanied by the sound of flapping wings.
The dead soldier's mouth was wide open, and his face became blurred.
"It's almost 5:15 p.m. now, so we've been stuck here for 2 hours."
Diya calculated the time and gave a precise time.
This time is commonly referred to as the "twilight hour" in some island nations.
Day and night alternate, yin and yang alternate.
Ghosts and demons would take the opportunity to escape to the human world and devour lone travelers.
I don't know why.
Diya suddenly felt the abundant ripples within her body begin to spread.
"Dia".
Qiduo stood solemnly behind Dia and said:
"Be careful, something is about to happen."
"If it's too difficult to handle, then go all out to destroy the [Exchange Contract] and use your own abilities again."
Dia nodded, picked up the unconscious second prince, and scanned everything around her with eyes like a hawk.
The surrounding invisible walls remained motionless, hanging stiffly in mid-air like a photograph.
Time passes little by little.
The ripples within Dia's body began to surge in waves, and a sense of tense, ominous tension inexplicably rose in the square where only the two of them were.
The cawing of crows had vanished without a trace.
The afterglow of the setting sun grew even more crimson, like a long red tongue hanging down from the sky and dotting the clouds.
Suddenly, in a very instant.
As if everything was just right, the birds, mountains, and earth blurred for a moment.
The whole world has become blurred.
The next moment, the air wall that had been frozen in mid-air like a photograph moved slightly.
A dense mass of heads and figures gradually appeared.
'Here it comes...'
Diya's eyes narrowed, and she shifted her body to the side, protecting Qiduo behind her.
Immediately, a condensed and magnificent aura gradually rose from his body and floated into the sky.
At this moment, his limit is only 70% of Dia's normal level. He doesn't usually think he will encounter a moment where he needs to go all out.
On the invisible wall, the human head gradually solidified, as if the invisible wall was constantly thinning.
When this solidification reaches its peak.
"Your Highness Camilla—where are you—"
The shouting and yelling, like a silver bottle suddenly shattering, instantly echoed throughout the entire square!
At that moment, everyone froze, staring at the crowd that had split into several groups around them.
Look at yourself, and I'll look at myself.
They stared at each other, both feeling lost and confused.
The invisible wall that had trapped everyone suddenly disappeared...
These people happened to be located in several specific areas of the square!
Using her height advantage, Diya quickly identified the crowd in front of her.
'Fourteen scattered royal soldiers, the third prince and his private army of seven, the fourth prince and his private army of three, the eighth prince and his private army of four, the second prince's private army of six, the fourteenth prince and his mother and Conzai (three men), the eleventh and twelfth princes (two men)... and Henrich?'
Diya looked at the curly-haired man who was looking around warily with a strange expression.
What is Henrich doing here?
Before he could think it through, a sharp sound, loud enough to shatter glass, tore through the silence:
"Your Highness Camilla!"
Saraperu, tears streaming down her face, stared madly at the second prince held in Dia's hands, screaming desperately:
"What's wrong? Please say something!!!"
She had never seen the second prince so miserable.
Her elegant blue dress was torn to shreds, her limbs hung limply on the ground like rotten bananas, her exquisite makeup was gone without a trace, her face was completely expressionless, her eyes were dull, and she twitched occasionally.
The great Princess Camilla was cruelly murdered like this!
At that moment, Saraperu's heart broke.
A black flame ignited in her eyes, she gritted her teeth, and her gaze suddenly shifted to Dia, who was carrying Camilla:
"It's you!"
"What did you do to Princess Camilla!?"
Behind her, the private soldiers who were also Camilla's all reacted. After seeing Camilla's miserable state, their eyes suddenly changed, and they stared at Dia with the eyes of someone looking at their father's killer!
Awakened by Saraperu's voice, the others in the square also turned their curious gazes toward the spot.
Led by the third prince, several other princes who knew the second prince's prowess frowned and looked at Diya warily upon seeing this.
Some of them knew Dia, and some did not, but that did not stop them from being wary of this audacious person who had harmed the prince!
"Put down the second prince and raise your hands!"
The scattered royal soldiers' guns clicked as they diligently stared at Dia, shouting sternly.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Kang Jae, focused on protecting the fourteenth prince, didn't even glance at them. His aura was as restrained as a stubborn rock, and all his energy was focused on the mother and son behind him.
Still confused, Henrich noticed what was happening over there, broke out in a cold sweat, and silently prayed:
'Don't see me, don't see me...'
He dared not let Dia greet him here; if he were identified as the murderer of the prince, he would have no way out in Kakin!
And at this very moment.
Diya, who was the focus of everyone's attention, remained silent for a moment.
The next moment, his aura suddenly surged, and at the same time, a white cloud suddenly shot out from behind his head and soared into the sky!
Chapter 412 He Disappeared × [Ball Lightning]
The first second.
Just as Dia had predicted.
The instant he unleashed his [training], Sarapelu made a gesture behind him without hesitation!
In her eyes, Dia was clearly exposed and was preparing to kill Camilla and silence them all, which was why she was displaying such a powerful aura.
In Sarapelu's eyes, the second prince, who was now devoid of Nen, was practically one foot already in the abyss!
As Camilla's private soldier, Sarapelu had no reason not to fight with everything she had at this moment.
That overwhelming aura was indeed something she had never heard of before, but she wasn't without her trump cards...
Just as Saraperu rushed out.
Those elite royal soldiers who had survived countless battles and managed to stay alive in the chaos just now decisively turned around and prepared to run away!
Fourteen elite royal soldiers, with resolute eyes and determined expressions, did not even have the desire to fire a single shot!
brush!brush!brush!
No one gave orders or commanded anything; they simply holstered their guns, took off running, and made their escape with perfect unison!
The instant they turned around simultaneously, everyone was stunned to see what they saw in their eyes—
That iron will to survive.
'Even among the lowest-ranking soldiers, there are plenty of intelligent people...'
Diya's thoughts flashed through her mind like lightning:
'Unfortunately, I saw something I shouldn't have seen, so I have no choice but to let you stay...'
