Chapter 916 898. The spreading darkness

“Be careful, Knight Commander.”

Emma’s old eyes under the hood of the priest raised their eyes and stared at Lorenzo for a while.

“King Othroais is a holy king. He has supported the fire-passing ceremony for tens of thousands of years.”

The new knight leader pursed his lips and finally suppressed his temper.

“Then even if we don’t bother His Majesty, we must return to the inner city and regain our strength and power before we can proceed with the fire-passing ceremony!”

This is the point.

Now that the coup has begun, the people in the city have become like this infected by the abyss because of those flaky ashes.

In the final analysis, the norm in the world has changed from "reasoning" to "looking at fists".

Without fists, this fire-passing ceremony would never be able to advance at all.

After all, before this, he was just an elite knight commander, and he did not need to care too much about political matters.

The second possibility is, as Lorenzo said, a serious accusation.

"I'll arrange the defense." After a long time, Lorenzo wiped his face vigorously and put the helmet under his arm back on his head.

And the inner city is where their strength lies. The high wall is nothing more than Lothric's gradually desolated outer defense. Neither the priest nor the knights put much effort into the high wall.

"If you are killed or detained, then it will be the same for a certain period of time. And if after this period of time, there is still no dragon knight reacting from the chaos and coming down from the inner city to look for the knight leader, then At once"

And will this prestige spread among the dragoons?

Lorenzo was not sure.

With this advantage, the unknown Knight Dragoons may indeed be detained or completely destroyed.

But now, no flying dragon has come down.

Lan En has not finished what he said, and it is not suitable to finish it. None of the three people spoke, and the atmosphere became tense for a moment.

But now, this is something he must consider.

Lan En felt a little relieved after persuading Lorenzo.

“Then it’s better to wait a little longer.”

“Not a single one.”

You should naturally know what this situation means.

First, the flying dragons and dragoons were all detained or ‘disposed’ of in the inner city.

The situation is getting worse and worse now, but he still has to stay in this world for a while.

Lan En walked over, leaning against a stone pillar with his shoulder, and spoke calmly.

—The dragoons all mutinied.

Any words of "admonishment" are false, coups have begun, and the knights are divided and bloody.

“The greatest fighting strength of the Knights is the flying dragon, right?”

Lorenzo pursed his lips and said with difficulty.

Hyperdragons can fly. Although the terrain of Lothric City is rugged, it is not an obstacle to them at all.

Now that King Osroais has locked himself away, Prince Lorian's prestige has reached its peak after he killed the last hope of the demon race.

His qualifications cover almost all levels of the Knights of Lothric, and he is extremely familiar with the rules and composition of the Knights.

No matter which of the two possibilities it is, it means that the inner city has completely fallen and fell into the hands of the princes.

Lan made a suggestion.

Lorenzo just felt that Lan En was a little difficult to wake up. A person with his skill level should be very sensitive.

Immediately after Lan En opened his eyes, he felt that the air was stagnant for a moment, but then everything went back to normal, just like an illusion.

"How are you?"

Lorenzo patted Lan En's shoulder, took his arm and asked him to sit up from the floor covered with a sheet.

“You look very ugly.”

"No, it's nothing." Lan En calmly tightened and unclenched his hands, feeling his own physiological condition. At the same time, Mentos also reported the physiological information he collected in real time to the subject.

“I just haven’t had a break in a long time.”

The witcher said calmly.

But in fact, he ate well and slept well the night before the coup happened.

But last night, I don’t know if it was because the power of the abyss was raging in the city of Lothrik, and the darkness in his body was affected.

The darkness that had been suppressed by Rosalia's [Miracle·Sunshine Moisture] began to stir again.

While repeatedly opening and closing his palms to relieve the strange feeling in his body, Lan En felt a little more anxious in his heart.

If it weren't for the super organ [Song Gland] in his head, he might have gone insane the first time he came into contact with this darkness.

But now, as the initial fire becomes weaker and weaker, the darkness will spread and flourish greatly. This is the natural law of this world.

There is no place to hide even if you want to, because this is a worldwide disaster.

But even when facing this kind of problem, Lan En still keeps his face and tone calm.

“Why wake me up?”

He is not the kind of person who gets confused when he encounters danger. After experiencing many things, he knows that confusion will only make him fall into the grave faster.

“Just like you said yesterday, Lan”

 Lorenzo’s teeth were clenched, and it was obvious that he was repulsed by the content of what he said.

“There are dragoons coming down from the inner city.”

“The result is not good?”

Lorenzo was silent for a while, and then said.

“When one came down, he couldn’t even control his flying posture, and then he lay down on a tower on the high wall and died.”

“‘One’? What else?”

“Another flying dragon came down to chase us. It and its dragoons obviously didn’t expect so many members of the Knights to gather here.”

“We are dragon-hunting knights, so the corpses of the flying dragon and the dragoon are now outside.”

Lan En is not too concerned about the corpses of the two flying dragons. What he should be most concerned about now is how to keep the flames strong and get rid of the darkness.

And compared with the legendary immortal dragons in this world, these flying dragons are actually a bit ordinary.

“What matters is the situation above.”

Lan En continued to ask while pinching his painful temples.

 Lorenzo has just taken up the position of leader of the knights, and none of the knights here have been in management before.

So when he had something to do, he could only come to Lan En and Emma to discuss it.

But at least he has a clear head and is self-aware. I won’t make rash decisions when my brain is hot and I don’t listen to advice.

And what Lorenzo said was just as Lan En estimated yesterday.

“Those in the inner city will inform the knights of the Order to gather in the chapel before they launch a coup.”

"The dragon knights had no chance to board the flying dragon. The other knights only carried a sword with them and were not even fully armed. Then in the chapel"

Lorenzo said, his iron-gloved palms creaking as he held them.
