Chereads / Dragon of the Root / Chapter 679 - Investigation

Chapter 679 - Investigation

A holy light that seemed to pierce the sky shot out from the Lion King's chambers through the walls, and lingered for a long time.

For a moment, a ray of holy light was artificially removed, and there was a huge hole in the wall of the Lion King's bedroom. Agravain and Tristan, who lived in the holy city, were also attracted by the holy light.

"King, are you alright?" Agravain respectfully stood outside the bedroom, greeting the Lion King in the bedroom with the door closed, while Tristan stood behind Agravain, standing still and respectfully.

Even if they knew that something had happened in the bedroom, but without orders from the Lion King, they could not and would not dare to barge in at will.

"It's okay, Sir Vero just came back, I am a little excited, and I have a contest with Sir Vero, all of you go." Artoria's mature and reassuring voice came from the bedroom.

"I see, Sir Vero has returned, since Sir Vero is here, then we will go first." When Agravain said this, his voice was a little unwilling, but since it was the king's order, So he still retreated obediently.

"So sad, then I'll go too." Tristan, who didn't say a word, said a word at the end.

After that, Agravain and Tristan left.

Inside the room, Artoria was sitting in a chair that looked like a throne, with her legs crossed, while Guinevere sat quietly on the edge of the bed, a small hole in the wall.

"Artoria, are you really going to kill me…" Wu Ming said immediately after using spiritual power to know that Agravain and Tristan had left.

"If you were able to die from that attack just now, it could only prove that you are too weak," Artoria said solemnly without apologies.

On the other hand, Guinevere, who was a melon eater, pouted.

"It's not that Sir Vero doesn't understand his style."

Wu Ming was helpless.

"Un, it was indeed my fault."

Not to mention the two women who are jealous of you, suddenly you get angry, then when they are scared, you say "it's okay, you continue", no matter who will be angry.

Guinevere, who had always been obedient to Wu Ming, was a little dissatisfied this time, let alone Artoria.

Although Artoria seems to want to leave the worldly concept and be with Wu Ming, but before that, she was the Lion King, who gave orders to the Knights of the Round Table like "cannibalism", and led the Lion King Team to establish a new holy city, and carry out the ruthless holy lion king. and inhuman.

Thinking of this, Wu Ming's expression became serious.

"I apologize to you for the rudeness earlier. Now, we can talk serious business, Artoria." After all, Wu Ming had come here to look for Artoria.

Artoria nodded indifferently, whether as lover or retainer, Wu Ming had the qualifications to negotiate with her.

However, Guinevere who heard Wu Ming's words became so serious, panicked a little.

Through his previous chat with Wu Ming, she could understand that Wu Ming was not here to "take refuge" with the Lion King, but to cause trouble with the Lion King.

Whether it was Artoria or Wu Ming, both of them were very important to Guinevere.

One was husband and wife on the surface, but personal friends, and the other a knight and lover himself, so Guinevere didn't want the two of them to have a conflict.

However, whether it was Artoria or Wu Ming, Guinevere understood that since it had developed into what it is now, it was impossible to resolve matters without "talking" between the two.

"Then… that, do you want me to prepare a drink…" Guinevere asked hesitantly.

Artoria didn't speak or move, but Wu Ming nodded.

"Go, remember to prepare more."

However, after hearing Wu Ming's advice, Guinevere couldn't help but laugh.

Why prepare more, right because you don't eat enough, as for why you don't eat enough...

Guinevere glanced at Artoria, who was calm, and smiled happily.

After all, Wu Ming's words gave Guinevere another meaning, that they couldn't fight.

Prepare some drinks to eat slowly, if you fight, you will not be able to eat.

Guinevere smiled and nodded, rose gracefully, and left the room.

Seeing Guinevere leave in a good mood, Wu Ming heaved a sigh of relief.

He purposely gave Guinevere the feeling of "unable to fight", after all, this could not only keep Guinevere's mood, but also find a reason to let Guinevere go from here.

After all, it wasn't that Wu Ming couldn't fight if he didn't want to fight.

Wu Ming looked deeply at Artoria, and saw a pair of pupils emitting light for an unknown reason.

Although Artoria was still the familiar, Wu Ming knew that the Artoria in front of him was a familiar stranger, he was not the familiar King Arthur, but the unfamiliar Lion King.

Perhaps the previous King Arthur selectively listened to Wu Ming's words, but now facing this Lion King, Wu Ming felt that he would not listen to his words.

"Artoria, even though you've changed a lot, through what happened just now, I feel like you're still the old Artoria."

Artoria didn't move, only a slight fluctuation in her eyes shone with light, and then she also looked at Wu Ming.

"You too, although I don't know how many years you have lived, but basically you haven't changed. You are still the one who made a lifelong personal relationship with me."

However, Artoria's words left Wu Ming a little helpless.

Don't be too ambiguous huh, Wu Ming just made a promise with Artoria "a king who will be king for life, knight who will protect king for life" that's all.

Pressing the inner spit, Wu Ming turned his hand and pointed out the window.

"In that case, can you tell me why you had to do the holy selection, and what happened to the big hole outside the holy city?"

Seeing Wu Ming's serious face and listening to the questioning tone, Artoria didn't change her expression at all, she was still so calm, as if… she had lost her feelings.

"I think you should also see that the hole was caused by my holy spear, because they are enemies against the holy city, so they must be exterminated."

Artoria continued to speak without stopping.

"The reason why I will do the holy selection is because this is the best way to save humanity right now."
