The city of courage, the second floor of the dungeon.

The golden-robed and blue-haired guardian Edith Mekelland stood in front of the largest teleportation node, waiting silently like a sculpture.

As one of the true founders of the City of Courage and even the United Kingdom of Mankind, Edith is the only survivor among the original group of adventurers.

The transcendent level of power endowed her with an immortal face and a lifespan of thousands of years. The years hardly left any traces on this royal ancestor, except for the vicissitudes of the eyes.

Although it can be said to be immortal, the transcendent level will still be killed, just like some of Edith's companions.

Because the Transcendence Level is not the top of the pyramid, there are more powerful existences above it—false gods, even real gods.

At the first sight of meeting, the throbbing from the depths of the soul made Edith realize that the two girls who walked together were in such a state, far surpassing her existence.

Therefore, she never blocked the other party.

Not to mention the black-haired girl named Willis who treated Edith with kindness.

Although the descendant named Ban made a big mistake, his real mistake was that he didn't understand the insignificance of being a mortal thing, and easily provoked those real superior beings. Whether he can survive can only depend on fate.

Two bloody figures in silver robes walked into the room full of nodes from behind, and bowed to salute.

"Boss, the enemy has retreated."

"...It seems that Miss Willis has already made progress, I don't know... oh, they came out."

Before Edith finished her sentence, the magnificent teleportation node flashed with light, and the blond and black-haired girls had appeared in front of the three [Sinners] down-to-earth, their postures were as they were at the beginning.

"Yo, it's all there."

The pastor waved her hand to the three highest-ranking people in front of [Sinners], and said hello with a relaxed expression.

"Welcome back, Ms. Willis, what do you think of this wonderland in the United Kingdom?"

Also returning a soft smile, Edith didn't rush to ask about the result of their trip, but instead brought up something that was closer to the parents' short stories, as if she didn't care about Ben's life or death at all.

"It's okay, it's very interesting. Miss Edith, if you have a chance, can you take the time to sit down with me and have a good chat. I'm quite interested in the designer who built this place and the history of the kingdom."

"Hehe, naturally there is no problem, it is my honor."

After thinking for a while, Edith took out something from her sleeve and handed it to Willis.

"By holding this thing, the Sinkeeper will naturally know your identity."

"Then I won't be polite~ um..."

After accepting the token, she waited for a while, seeing that none of the other three seemed to be planning to speak up... Helpless, Wei Lisi could only try to liven up the somewhat stiff topic.

"Why did you two come here? Are you done fighting outside?"

Hearing that, wearing a silver robe, the older Zuo Wei finally spoke.

"Yes, thanks to the help of Miss Willis, I finally repelled the enemy. I don't know where you are..."

"Basically, I figured it out. I feel like you're fine... Then I'll be leaving. It's probably still busy outside."

Having said that, Wei Lisi did not lift her foot immediately.

"By the way, Miss Edith, you have so much combat power, are you really not going out to help?"

Everyone knows well that the you here mainly refer to the two legends and the guardian Edith, especially the latter. She is not only a living fossil-level ancestor of the royal family who has survived for nearly a thousand years, but also possesses super-level combat skills. force.

Without Willis interfering, Edith's existence can be said to have the power to turn things around.

however……

The ancestor smiled and shook his head.

"[Sinkeeper]'s responsibility is to guard the crime, and it's just to guard the crime. Political disputes are not included. Unless the kingdom is really in danger of life and death, I will not take action. Otherwise, in the past 800 years, how many times have there been coups and wars? Can I intervene every time?"

"Well... that's what I said."

The more powerful an individual is, the less he sees power struggles. This is true for Wei Lisi, that is for Prince Lolita Lucini, and the same is true for Guardian Edith.

Perhaps in the eyes of the ancestors, as long as the kingdom is still there, the Macelander family is still in power, and it doesn't really matter who the king is.

800 years is too long, enough to wipe out a person's momentum and make her as indifferent as water.

After thinking about it, Willis still didn't mention to Edith that Ben had escaped in a special way and planned to split the country and establish himself as king.

"Then, let's say goodbye tonight, I...?"

As soon as she lifted her steps, Wei Lisi's face suddenly moved slightly, revealing a somewhat weird expression, but it seemed that she had expected it long ago.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Guang, who always focused on Miss Priest, was the first to notice the change in her demeanor.

Edith and the others also cast curious gazes.

"Ben Mekelander died...just now."

After pondering for a moment, Willis still told the truth.

[Sinners] The expressions of the three of them changed.

Edith, the world-savvy patriarch of the royal family, immediately realized the meaning contained in this short sentence and Willis' demeanor. However, she was not so sad because of the death of her heir, but asked instead.

"Miss Willis means that you didn't do anything to that child, but someone else killed him?"

"It's almost like this, oops... I'll tell you."

It's meaningless to continue to hide it, so Wei Lisi roughly explained what happened after she met Ben and the content of the conversation between the two sides through concise words.

"It's actually possible to escape the blockade of [Dream Prison] in this way..."

Frowning and muttering to herself, Edith looked at the black-haired girl in front of her.

"So, Miss Willis thinks..."

"Yes, because I felt that something was wrong, before we parted, I quietly applied detection magic to the class, and just now, that connection was broken."

Miss Pastor is outspoken.

"It's impossible for him to notice and remove my magic in such a short period of time. The only explanation is that Ben Mekelander has died completely and has not been resurrected through any means."

And in that case, the only person who can locate their teleportation destination first, and pass through the protection of the transcendent Rebecca to kill Ban is...

Rebecca herself.

Sure enough, [The Throne of Eternal Life]... At least Rebecca has already betrayed Ben Mekelander, and all her actions are purposeful, in a hidden way, to help the second prince's camp At the same time, it quietly led to its demise.

Even at the last moment, he personally killed it to prevent future troubles.

The copy of the secret document of the class and the Beast Kingdom was obviously kept by Rebecca on purpose, and she secretly put it in the [Ring of the Guardian of the Demon God] while she was not paying attention.

As the second throne, it is not difficult to achieve this with her ability to surpass the super strong and gain the trust of Ban.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Wei Lisi did not take action to block or target their thoughts, because she had already realized it after learning the information.

The great plan has come to close, and tonight, Ben Mekelander will die.

I'm afraid he didn't know it until he died. From the beginning to the end, there was a pair of more hidden, but ubiquitous hands, secretly manipulating the changes in the situation.

The second prince who thinks he is far-sighted is actually just a puppet in the hands of others without knowing it.

Chapter 176: Chapter 116: Lady Goddess, You Don't Want to...

When Wei Lisi and her pet temporarily bid farewell to the guardian Edith and walked out of the gate of the dungeon, they were surprised to find that another big battle was breaking out here.

One of the parties to the battle is naturally those who have failed to attack and retreated from the depths of the dungeon.

Ban's role in arranging them was only to cover Rebecca's actions, and they should never have expected to break through the defense line of the [Sinners]. Now that Ban has left, these people have also received a signal to retreat.

On the other side, it was a bit of a surprise. It turned out to be countless palace guards wearing silver armor and a strict military appearance, and a small number of adventurers interspersed among them.

Most importantly, Wei Lisi also saw the shadow guards in this group of troops.

You must know that the shadow guards are equivalent to the personal guards of the fifth princess, and their appearance means that Lilia herself must be here.

really.

"Willis?!"

He deliberately stood for a while at the gate of the sky prison that was not affected by the battle. Not long after, a familiar voice sounded not far away.

Her Royal Highness, who rushed here with only a skirt and a long sword before she even had time to change into her battle armor, under the blessing of airflow magic, rushed from the edge of the battlefield to Miss Priest in a short while.

"Are you... are you okay?! Such a big event happened, and there was no trace of it. I thought that white light... Why did you come here all of a sudden?"

It can be seen that Lilia is really anxious. She has used all her strength just to rush over the short distance of several hundred meters. She is still panting slightly at the moment, but her attention is obviously on the black hair in front of her. on the girl.

At this last moment, it is meaningless to conceal her identity. After taking off the [cognitive barrier mask] in front of Ben, Willis did not put it on again, so Miss Lilia recognized her immediately .

Glancing at the blue-haired princess whose face was slightly flushed from fighting and running, Willis turned her gaze away and stretched her hand towards Lilia's bandaged back.

"Why are you injured again? Oh, why can't you learn to be smarter..."

The warm golden light flickered on Miss Priest's fingertips, and the wound stabbed by Crowmans, although it had been treated and stopped bleeding, disappeared quietly.

The life-saving effect of [Ascension Box] did prevent Crowmans from piercing Lilia's heart with a single knife, but the weapon condensed from the Ninth Throne's ability still left some energy in Her Royal Highness's body, causing the wound to be unable to heal quickly.

Legendary methods may be difficult for ordinary healers, but in front of Wei Lisi, they are nothing more than child's play.

"It's okay... just a little injury, it's just a set up, Wei Lisi, did you come here to prevent Ben from escaping?"

"Oh? According to you, you know what that guy is going to do?"

Fiddling with the hair on her temples, Lilia nodded slightly.

"Seeing his attitude after the deliberation of All Souls, I guessed that there are nine out of ten plans to completely turn against this side, abandon the position of believing in the ancestors, and establish himself as a king. After being judged by the spirit of the sky, this is already the only way for him to maintain his power and even truly become a king."

"Although I didn't expect him to be so decisive, and launched a city-wide riot that night, I had to fight fires everywhere, and I didn't have time to take care of the prison, but I still have some preparations."

"You should have seen ancestor Edith when you came out of it, what's the situation now, has Ben escaped?"

"This..."

Naturally, there was nothing to hide from Lilia, and after considering her words, Wei Lisi told Her Royal Highness what happened before.

"Huh? Miss Rebecca is the throne, and she betrayed Ben and even killed him? This..."

The girl subconsciously covered her mouth with her hands, and her pupils shrank slightly.

It seems that the amount of information is too large, causing the head of the clever Queen to temporarily crash.

"What is this..."

"Hey, Your Highness! Why did you run away suddenly?!"

Lilia wanted to continue to ask something, but a blond paladin Ji suddenly shot out from the slanting stab, interrupting their conversation.

Holding the crossed sword and shield, Edwina, whose armor was soaked in blood, rushed to Lilia's side and educated her with a dissatisfied expression.

"I said, Your Highness, you still have injuries on your body. When you were assassinated before, you almost scared me to death, but now you suddenly disappeared from behind with your name on your head. Can you stop scaring me all the time!"

"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... It's just that I suddenly saw someone very important, and my body moved subconsciously. Speaking of which, this is the first time you have met like this. Let me introduce, this is..."

Her Royal Highness turned her head and turned sideways, revealing the girl in white robe behind her, and a certain Miss Long Niang with a displeased face.

But before she could say Wei Lisi's name, the paladin Ji suddenly trembled, as if seeing something unbelievable, she was so frightened that she took several steps back, almost throwing her sword on the ground.

"Girls, girls, girls...!"

"Female female female female female? Don't you need to emphasize my gender like that?"

Wei Lisi's head was full of black lines, while Her Royal Highness was puzzled by Edwina's abrupt actions.

The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing which tendon this idiot paladin suddenly had.

However, although Her Royal Highness did not know the inside story, Wei Lisi and Edwina were also old acquaintances, so there was nothing to be polite about, so she immediately held back the feeling of wanting to complain, and raised her hand to greet her.

"Hey, Miss Edwina, it's me, I was shocked again, I'm sorry for keeping your identities from you all the time, don't be surprised~"

"No, no, no! How could it be, girl... It is already a great honor for Ms. Willis to condescend to stay by our side. In your capacity, it is necessary to conceal a little bit, that... you..."

"?"

Seeing the girl in front of her faltering and scrambling, Wei Lisi always has a kind of... Fanatic fans on the blue star have seen the sight of an idol, but this little girl doesn't have that kind of relationship with her, does she?

Obviously, the last time we met in the Forgotten Land, it was quite normal...

Oh, I understand, she must have been rescued by me several times before, and the [Bright Kiss] has greatly increased her strength, so after meeting again, she will feel very embarrassed.

This kind of feeling is like playing a game and kneeling for more than a dozen times. When you doubt your life, a super god suddenly appears to take you to end the curse of defeat, and even fly for a whole night. Into a sense of awe and flattery... or something?
