In the palace of New Rome, the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, Emperor Manfred and Princess Mary witnessed the moment of Elizabeth's death together.
Mary couldn't believe what was happening before her eyes. Her sister, her favorite sister, had been shot dead on live TV just now.
"elder sister!!!"
Mary's mind was spinning. She knew she was not there but she still stood up and tried to walk to the screen. But before she could take two steps, she fell down due to her physical weakness and the heavy blow. Her maid hurriedly helped her up with tears streaming down her face.
"The murderer who killed my sister said a lot of words in support of the empire's continued aggression before taking action."
Mary recalled that her father seemed very satisfied with the speech of the murderer before her sister was killed... Mary had a terrible idea. She guessed that the murderer of her sister was actually her father.
But when she looked at Manfred, she found that was not the case. At this time, Manfred seemed to have not yet realized what happened. His mouth was open, his expression was dull, and his eyes were shining with tears. He stared at the screen without blinking. It wasn't until the live broadcast suddenly ended and his daughter Elizabeth still didn't stand up that he believed that his daughter was indeed dead.
"No, no no no no... no!!!"
Manfred's expression became extremely distorted. He almost never shed tears in front of others, but now he was bursting into tears.
"Where's the picture!!! Who cut off the live broadcast! What happened to Elizabeth!!"
He stood up suddenly, picked up the gold jug at hand and threw it to the ground. Then he pounced on his cronies like a ferocious beast, picked up his cronies like a deer and roared: "Hurry up and connect the live broadcast signal to me!!"
The confidant was trembling with fear and said hesitantly: "No, it wasn't us. It was the signal source of the live broadcast that was cut off."
"Check it for me!!!! Who killed my daughter!! Who is it?!"
At this moment, an explosion suddenly occurred on the east side of the palace, followed by the sound of a firefight. Someone shouted through a loudspeaker: "The tyrant Manfred has been killed by us! The rest of the people are waiting to surrender immediately!"
Manfred dropped his cronies, pointed at the door and shouted: "Take Mary away quickly!!"
…
Looking at the soldiers with live ammunition surrounding him in the room, and recalling what had just happened, the red knight looked at Zhuge Daozi in shock.
"Zhuge Daozi! It was you who murdered Her Majesty the Princess!"
Zhuge Daozi sneered: "You are spitting nonsense! Who do you think will believe what you say? Just now, there was an explosion in the palace of New Rome, the capital of the empire. A group of people tried to assassinate the emperor, but they sadly mistook the target. Now they have already You were subdued, and that group has already confessed you!"
The red knight was stunned. This was impossible. He did have a plan to assassinate Manfred, but this plan was temporarily shelved due to various reasons. The killers lurking in New Rome would not act without their own orders.
"You're talking nonsense!"
The Red Knight also wanted to defend himself. Zhuge Daozi clicked on the personal terminal on his arm a few times, and the VR projection screen in the room turned into an empire news program. The program was reporting on the assassination incident that Zhuge Daozi said, and indeed mentioned being captured. One of the killers betrayed the Red Knight.
Originally, some of the soldiers in the room did not believe that the Red Knight, the hero of the empire, would do such a treasonous thing. After seeing the news, they had no choice but to believe it, and they all pointed their guns at the Red Knight.
Zhuge Daozi turned off the projection and said: "Vlad Adenauer, you are the son of Emperor Manfred's brother. The position of Governor of New Rome was originally your father's. Your father was trying to change New Rome from that time. The overlord of the North American Alliance became independent and was assassinated, and you suspect that the person who killed your father was His Majesty the Emperor, who later took over the position of governor. So whether you hide your name or plan a murder, it is all for revenge, right? ?”
"you…"
The red knight was speechless. What Zhuge Daozi said was true, but he still didn't understand why his men in New Rome acted without permission without receiving his orders.
At this moment, someone came in holding the Red Knight's crony Boris at gunpoint and pushed Boris to the ground with his hands tied. The Red Knight knew everything when he saw the man's face.
"It turns out it's you... you've been working undercover."
The man who escorted Boris was called Big Alibaba, and he was a subordinate of the Red Knight. At this moment, he was staring at Boris on the ground with eyes full of anger, and said viciously: "Boris, it was you who forced me to join the army with a gun, and now I finally have my revenge!"
The Red Knight recalled that Great Alibaba was recruited into the army when he was in the Middle East. The empire has been forcibly recruiting soldiers to replenish its troops. Big Alibaba was forced to join the army because Boris threatened to kill his younger brother Little Alibaba. After that, Alibaba behaved very honestly and passed his own test, so he included him in his assassination plan. Unexpectedly, the Great Alibaba has always held a grudge against him. He must have thought of deceiving the assassins of New Rome into acting rashly... No wonder, the forced recruitment into the army was indeed something he and Boris did wrong.
Boris looked like he had just been beaten by Big Alibaba, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He sat up and cursed angrily: "You little brat! You actually betrayed us!"
"I have never been loyal to you! Go to hell!"
Big Alibaba pulled the trigger and killed Boris with one shot in front of the Red Knight. Boris's blood splashed on the Red Knight's face.
“Boris!!!!”
Seeing his most trusted subordinate being killed in front of his eyes, the Red Knight was in grief, and a surge of blood surged into his heart. He took out his gun and killed Ali Baba at an extremely fast speed, avenging Boris.
"boom!!"
At the moment when the red knight fired, Zhuge Daozi pulled out his own gun and shot the red knight's right wrist holding the gun. The red knight's arm was shot and the gun fell to the ground.
"catch him!"
Zhuge Daozi gave an order, and the soldiers swarmed forward and subdued the red knight.
"Zhuge Daozi... just wait for me!!!"
The subdued red knight gritted his teeth and glared at Zhuge Daozi. Daozi waved his hand and asked the soldiers to escort him down, and asked people to move the two corpses in the house. Seeing that his favorite velvet carpet was completely stained with blood, Daozi thought to himself: "It's okay, Dao, the Red Knight silenced me, but I can't have my velvet carpet anymore."
