As a villain, I really can't become stronger anymore

Apart from the sound of gasping for air, there was no movement at all. The faces were full of shock, and the eyes were wide open, almost protruding from their sockets.

Looking at the body on the ground that was still twitching like a centipede that was still alive but dead, the shock in my heart was like an overwhelming sea and I couldn't calm down at all.

This...this is the grand duke of the kingdom.

This is the legendary six-star master who is almost invincible in the world.

Just, just die like that?

Just like that, his head was grabbed and he slammed against the ground until it was broken into pieces?

This, is this true?

Even though this scene happened right before everyone's eyes, everyone still found it unbelievable. The impact of this scene was so great that it made these people unable to react.

Looking at the figure standing next to the body of Grand Duke Egbert, and seeing the filth dripping down his fingers, everyone's scalp tingled, and they felt shocked, terrified, and all kinds of emotions kept surging in their chests.

After nearly half a minute, suddenly, thunderous cheers rang out from the crowd. The mixed sound was louder than thunder and earthquakes, almost blowing the roofs off the surrounding houses. The glass on the buildings on both sides of the street was shaking and crackling.

Dead, finally dead.

The Grand Duke, who had been doing evil in the royal city for many years, finally died.

Retribution, this is retribution.

What's more, he knelt on the ground and cried loudly. Maybe he had some relatives or friends who had been killed by Grand Duke Egbert, or someone in the Grand Duke's family.

And now, the Grand Duke is finally dead.

The behemoth Egbert family will eventually inevitably decline.

Then, a figure was seen tremblingly walking out from the crowd, with one of his legs twisted in a strange posture. He was a middle-aged man, but his hair had already turned gray.

He walked step by step towards Butler who was lying on the ground and still squirming.

His eyes were filled with extremely intense, unresolvable resentment.

He will never forget that day. It was the day when he and his childhood sweetheart got married. Just because he met Butler on the way to pick up the bride, the young master had a sudden idea and wanted to taste what it was like to be a bride, and then directly arranged for him to be with her. A group of thugs kidnapped his wife before she got married.

The girl who had grown up with him was humiliated in the Grand Duke's mansion and eventually committed suicide.

He wanted to seek justice for his wife and took Egbert to the Supreme Court of Granville. Granville claimed that whether he was a member of the royal family or a noble clergyman, as long as he committed a crime, he would be severely punished. The highest legal institution for punishment convicted him of a false accusation in court, and then broke his right leg.

The reason why he can still live is not because of Butler's conscience, but simply because this young master wants to see how helpless he is despite how much he hates him.

From then on, he could only drag his broken body and live in pain worse than death.

He wanted revenge but had no power.

But now, the sky has eyes, and he finally saw Butler and the unlucky day of the Egbert family.

He suddenly discovered that these high-ranking nobles seemed to be no big deal. Like ordinary people, they were also afraid, injured, and died.

The deepest hatred in his heart supported him and made him gradually forget his fear of the nobles. At this moment, he only wanted revenge, revenge with his own hands.

Even if the incident will lead to crazy revenge from the powerful class, he will not hesitate.

Dragging his right leg, he walked towards Butler step by step. It was obvious that this man did not have any special powers. He was just an ordinary person, and a disabled one at that.

But those cold eyes made Butler feel an unforgettable fear. His body could not stop trembling, and his scalp was numb.

"You, what do you want to do? I am a noble. Think about the consequences of hurting me. You can't afford it..." Under intense fear, Butler howled. He still wanted to use his status as a noble to Use it as your own life-saving talisman.

In this world, in the Twilight Continent, the common people have no qualifications to resist the nobles at all. That is a crime that will send the whole family to the gallows.

Normally, these lowly civilians would be submissive in front of him, for fear of accidentally offending him, but why now, their eyes are so ferocious, they want to eat him.

The next second, the man suddenly let out a beast-like howl from his throat. He rushed towards Butler with his whole body, opened his mouth, and bit Butler's nose. Blood spurted out from the bridge of his nose in an instant. .

Those teeth were so hard that they bit off Butler's nose.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah……"

The severe pain made Butler's body twitch and he screamed continuously.

On the other side, a ragged woman came out with a look of resentment. Her daughter, who was just sixteen years old, was kidnapped to the Duke's Mansion by this damned beast. After being tortured for three days and three nights, she was handed over to his lackeys...

More and more figures gathered around.

They seemed to have turned into a group of zombies, losing all ethics and morals. At this moment, they just wanted to tear a piece of flesh and blood from this beast. They had all been raped by the Duke Egbert's Palace, and even by the little Butler. People who have been hurt by beasts.

At the beginning, Butler could even make bursts of screams, but at some point, even the screams were gradually drowned out and disappeared completely.

To be fair, the scene before him was definitely terrifying.

But Ron's face showed a slight smile.

After being enslaved for eight thousand years, they can still muster the courage to resist, which at least means that these people can still be saved.

There were countless people who kowtowed to Ron and Agnes, almost worshiping them as gods.

Agnes also smiled softly, even though their original purpose was just to deal with Apu and Holt.

Just to rescue Dolores.

But now, Agnes feels that what she just did seems to have brought some other, different meanings, and she doesn't hate this feeling.

But among the crowd, there was another person with a face full of fear.

His entire face had turned extremely pale, without any color at all.

He was a slender, short young man who belonged to the Royal Guards of Granville and was a thief by profession.

His strength was not as good as those stationed outside the city, so he was responsible for staying in Adams City to prevent Ron and Agnes from sneaking into the city. When there was a big commotion here before, he had already noticed the existence of Ron and Agnes. He wanted to go directly back to the palace to inform His Majesty the King, but he was attracted by Ron's actions and has stayed there until now.

He could even be considered a minor noble, with the lowest title of lord.

Seeing a large number of civilians overwhelming Grand Duke Egbert and Butler, and scrambling to eat their bodies, he felt as if every part of his body was in severe pain, even though it was not happening to him.

It seemed that he was the one being eaten.

Such bloody and crazy scenes made his scalp numb. He never thought that civilians who had always been docile would actually show such sharp fangs.

He was awakened by the blood in front of him, and his body shivered violently. He finally remembered his mission and did not dare to stay here for too long. It seemed that if he stayed for a few more minutes, he would be eaten by these out-of-control civilians. .

He turned and ran.

I ran to the end of the street, where my ears couldn't hear the sound and my eyes couldn't see the scene, and then I stopped.

With one hand on the wall, his throat was still gasping for breath.

Even though he was far away, he still felt that his legs were constantly shaking.

After a long time passed, he finally recovered a little, straightened up again, and was about to return to the palace, but as soon as he raised his head, he saw two figures in front of him.

In an instant, a dense layer of pimples appeared on the thief's body.

Those two people, weren't they Ron and Agnes who had just killed Grand Duke Egbert and caused Butler to be eaten alive by many civilians?

At that moment, the thief felt that his heartbeat seemed to have stopped at this moment.

An unprecedented sense of fear suddenly surged through his body. Although there were two people in front of him, he felt as if he had arrived at the gate of hell!

Chapter 278 The Devil Emerging from Hell (4)

Although he is only the lowest-ranking lord, he is still a nobleman. When faced with beings with a higher title than himself, he usually nods and bows, flatters and smiles. When facing ordinary civilians, he naturally shows off his power.

Although it is impossible to treat human life as trivial as a real powerful person like Butler, he has never paid attention to the common people. At least he has done such shitty things as not giving money to eat.

But now, all the pride of being a noble has completely disappeared... Nonsense, even the Grand Duke Egbert has given up, and a small lord like myself is nothing.

At this moment, the thief had just recovered a little and started to tremble again.

He didn't understand why he was so unlucky to meet these two demons who came out of hell here.

No, they are scarier than the demons in hell.

In the intermittent state, the thief even began to have a strange illusion before his eyes, as if countless people pounced on him, biting his body madly, and pulling pieces of bloody flesh from him.

That feeling is definitely more terrifying and despairing than the guillotine, the stake, or the gallows.

No matter what, he would never want to end up like Butler. That would be worse than death, and he would have to taste the cruelest torture in the world before dying.

At that moment, the thief whipped out his dagger and stabbed himself in the heart.

Crisp and neat, without any sloppiness.

At least, this way he can die a little more happily.

This scene shocked Ron. What is going on?

Why would this man commit suicide with a knife when he saw him? Is he that scary?

This thief came here with the complete intention of dying, but just when the dagger was about to pierce his heart, an inexplicable feeling suddenly appeared. The dagger, which was originally moving at a very fast speed, seemed to be entangled by chains in an instant, and its speed became abnormally slow.

Before the thief could figure out what was going on, Ron's figure floated over, reaching out and patting the thief's shoulder. The next moment, the thief felt his arm go numb, and the dagger in his hand immediately clicked. It fell to the ground.

Although he obviously survived, the thief's complexion turned even paler.

It's over, it's over, it's over now.

Even if he wanted to die happily, he still didn't know how the devil in front of him would torture himself.

He was just running errands for His Majesty the King. Although he was a noble, he had never bullied men or women like Butler. At most, he would eat without giving money. Wouldn't he have to bear the same cruel punishment as Butler?

"Brother, what are you doing?" Ron asked with a smile.

The thief opened his mouth, as if he wanted to speak, but he couldn't make any sound at all. His throat seemed to be blocked, and he huffed and puffed.

This look made Ron feel a little helpless.

Ron had already noticed the existence of this thief when he was in the crowd. His eyes were obviously different from those of the civilians around him.

He suspected that this was Holt's arrangement to search for himself and Agnes's spies in the city, but now Ron was a little doubtful of his speculation. After all, Holt was also the king of a country, so he should not find anyone. Is this kind of person who can't even speak a word be a spy?

"Well, let me ask, were you arranged by Holt?" Ron asked, raising his eyebrows.

The thief's throat moved, but he still couldn't speak normally. He could only nod vigorously.

It's over, Granville is really in a state of decline. Look, this is the person arranged by the king, is this it?

Talent is withering.

"Looking for us?" Ron asked again, pointing to Agnes beside him.

The thief nodded again.

He was worried that the man might take action after asking questions, but in front of Ron, the thief didn't even have the guts to lie and hide.

"That's it. That's just right. Please send this letter to Holt 474." Ron nodded, took out a letter he had prepared long ago from his arms, and handed it to The thief then walked away.

It was not until Ron and Agnes were completely far away and even their backs could no longer be seen that the thief's tense body suddenly softened, and then he sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.

In just that short period of time, his whole body was completely soaked with sweat, and at this moment, his body felt sticky and uncomfortable.

His eyes were full of excitement of escaping death.

He was already prepared to die, but he really didn't expect that he would have a chance to survive.

Until this moment, he finally felt how precious life is.

It's great to be alive.

He lowered his head and looked silently at the envelope in his palm. The envelope was wet with the sweat from his palm.

There was even a gold coin on the envelope... The corner of the thief's mouth twitched. What is this? Is this the errand fee paid by this gentleman?

He really has... principles!

After several seconds, the thief finally reacted. He quickly put the envelope in his arms, struggled to get up from the ground, and then rushed towards the palace like crazy.

In the study room of the palace, Apu and Holt were sitting on both sides of the table, both of them looking unhappy. Just now, they had received news that Simon Adams and five hundred and sixty-four thieves had all been killed.

Although the five hundred and sixty-four thieves have good strength, and there are some hero-level experts among them, as long as they are legendary high-star existences like them, it is not too big to kill these five hundred and sixty-four people. Difficulty.

But what's really weird is that there is obviously an official road in the middle, but the deaths of these people did not alarm those who passed by the official road at all.

In other words, all of these people were killed instantly, and they didn't even have time to scream before they died.

Even if Apu and Holt take action personally, they will never be able to do this.

The most terrifying thing is that all of the 564 thieves died with their throats pierced. The positions of the wounds were all exactly the same. Moreover, judging from the degree of blood coagulation on the corpses, the time of death was very short.

And these thieves are arranged in a long snake formation, with a very short distance between every two thieves, so that these thieves can take care of each other.

If a thief is attacked, the thieves on both sides will immediately notice it and send out a signal.
