Originally, when Anxi heard that Her Majesty the Queen liked Wu very much, she was relieved and prepared to complete the copy and leave.
But at the tea party just now, Wu didn't look happy.
No, not only was she unhappy, Anxi even felt a sense of grievance for forcing a good girl into prostitution.
Therefore, regardless of whether Wu will sit on the throne or not, Anxi must prepare a way to escape.
As for whether to escape, she would respect Wu's final choice.
"Why are there portraits everywhere in this place?"
Anthy wandered around the castle, but no matter where she went, there would be several portraits of silver-haired women staring at her.
Who is this silver-haired woman?
The original Her Majesty the Queen?
Apart from this status, Anxi could hardly think of any other status that would allow the entire castle to be hung with her portraits.
But now is not the time to think about such things.
Anxi was running in the corridor outside.
Because of this important tea party, half of the servants in the castle were serving the group of nobles at the garden tea party, while the other half were cleaning everywhere or preparing meals for the tea party.
In short, now is the time when there are few people, Anxi should seize this time to plan a route to escape the castle secretly.
She was now in the cloister, her running figure passing by the marble columns carved with flowers.
Go straight ahead along the corridor and pass through an arched doorway with tall pure white statues on the left and right sides.
Anxi suddenly found that she had broken into an extremely wide space.
The high dome is inlaid with stained glass made of various gemstones. When the sun shines down, it looks ethereal and sacred when it is colorful.
At the very end of this space, a luxurious seat made of diamonds is placed on the steps covered with red velvet carpet. It is the throne of Her Majesty the Queen, the owner of the castle.
"There are no guards guarding them?" An Qian wondered.
It is unimaginable that such an important and noble place as the throne room does not even have a single guard.
But come all come.
Anxi looked around.
A place like the throne room has always hidden many secrets, and it would be unreasonable not to investigate.
Anxi trotted around the room and checked around it. Apart from being shocked by the expensive decorative materials in the throne room, there was nothing special.
"There's nothing under the throne..." Anxi lay on the ground and looked up at the bottom of the throne seat.
Having gained nothing, Anxi stood up and prepared to go elsewhere.
But because he lay down for too long, he got up too suddenly.
An Qian's eyes turned gray for a while, her feet were unsteady, and she fell to the ground with a "clang".
"Hiss..." Anxi gasped in pain.
She rubbed her head and looked at the red velvet carpet that she had kicked up, thinking that she should tidy it up quickly.
She crawled on her hands and knees to the lifted carpet. Just as she was about to stretch out her hand to spread it, she discovered that strange black lines were exposed under the carpet.
Only from the exposed corner, it can be seen that the pattern itself is a huge circle, with something written on it in incomprehensible characters.
This combination looks very much like some kind of magic circle!
Realizing this, Anxi quickly pulled the carpet open further. Because the throne was placed on the carpet, the carpet could only be opened by a third at most.
But this third of the pattern can already be determined by Anxi.
There is a secret magic circle hidden under the throne of this magnificent castle that no one wants to know.
Anxi took out the correction fluid hidden in her underwear and dabbed it on the black lines of the magic circle.
【Ding! 】
[The "hundred-year-old soul replacement array" has been detected. Would you like to modify or add a prefix? 】
...soul replacement?
When Anxi heard this word, her pupils tightened instantly.
There are portraits of women with silver-white hair everywhere in the castle. The queen chose Wu as his heir because she disliked her father's lack of youth and beauty. The queen looked completely different from the portrait but had the same eyes...
These contradictory information were all connected in this moment.
The owner of this castle has never changed.
She used the magic circle to select the body she liked most from her descendants and replace her soul into it.
The so-called heir battle, on the surface, is about choosing an heir, but in fact it is about choosing her new vessel.
She has always been the king of Ore City.
Such a terrifying and shocking secret is revealed.
Anxi took a few breaths, calmed down, and said to the correction fluid: "Replace with loss..."
"Bang!"
A deafening sound suddenly sounded in the throne room.
Anxi looked at the half of her skirt that had been chopped off by the giant axe, and looked back in shock.
Behind me, there were two sculptures standing at some point. They were the two sculptures guarding the arched doorway. They could actually move!
The blue gems in their eye sockets rotated, and after locking Anxi's position, they chopped down the giant ax in their hands again.
Although Anxi has actual combat experience, these two sculptures obviously have rich combat knowledge and magical strength. Anxi is no match for them.
When the giant ax struck down, Anxi ducked awkwardly, but not completely. A large piece of flesh was cut off from her arm, and blood suddenly spurted out.
Anxi covered her arms and glanced at the magic circle under the throne.
Correction fluid should be used only three times per day.
She has now been discovered by the guards. Although there are currently only two sculptures guarding her in front of her, there is no guarantee that more enemies will attack in the future, and the correction fluid will be her life-saving tool.
If she uses it in the magic circle now, she doesn't know if the only two chances left will be enough.
"Bang!" There was another loud noise, and Anxi barely dodged.
She couldn't concentrate and think now. In fact, the best way was to save her strength and escape.
but……
An Qian thought of Wu's golden eyes.
The first time she saw him, she remembered the beauty of those eyes.
This is the most suitable color for him. He is proud and gorgeous. He should not let the inexplicable pure white take over...
Alright alright.
Anxi was too lazy to think any more.
Anyway, the magic circle has been dotted with correction fluid, so I'll just change the prefix word.
She spoke again: "The modification will invalidate..."
"Miss An."
A low sound came from the doorway not far away, interrupting Anxi's thoughts again.
Anxi looked at the source of the sound warily.
Under the shadow of the column, the body of the goateeed butler Schaeffer was divided into two lines of black and white. He gradually broke out of the shadow and slowly came under the stained glass dome.
He looked at Anxi, who was already pale due to blood loss, expressionlessly: "Miss An, you seem to underestimate Her Majesty the Queen's power."
"Every move you make has long been under the Queen's sight."
As he said that, the diamond eyes on the portrait suddenly aimed at Anxi in the center of the throne room, and they shot out like sharp arrows.
"Not even the Lord of Mist City can shake the majesty of Her Majesty the Queen, let alone a little human like you."
Schaefer's voice was calm, and his expression didn't change at all. He walked towards Anxi step by step.
The statue guards stopped after Schaeffer appeared, and they followed Schaeffer with giant axes in their hands.
But Anxi felt a stronger sense of oppression and danger from Schaeffer than the statue guards.
She watched Schaeffer's every move closely, but Schaeffer was quite stable, with no flaws at all.
Anxi's accumulated experience through correction fluid allows her to cleverly eliminate ghosts with tricks, but she can't face this kind of fight with real guns and live ammunition now.
There is no choice but to escape.
Anxi rushed forward when Schaeffer was still three meters away from her.
"Miss An, please don't be afraid."
But I didn't expect the next second.
Schaeffer's voice actually rang in her ears, and his speed was completely unpredictable.
"Her Majesty the Queen has given orders to spare your life."
After speaking, Anxi suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck, and then her vision turned dark, and she completely lost consciousness.
