Overgod Ascension

"The great Lord of Shadows watches everything from the dark!"

The figure in the mist laughed shrilly, as harshly as the cry of a night owl: "It's just that you need to offer a sacrifice to satisfy the great Lord of Shadows, just like you did twenty years ago!"

The Duke of Wellington closed his eyes in pain. [Zero↑Nine△小↓说△网]

That year, he did not hold a high position in the family. The one who really had the right to inherit was his eldest brother, who seemed to have the glory of all the gods rolled into one.

In order to gain supreme authority, he launched an attack on the throne of the heir. After a disastrous defeat, the Duke encountered this organization that called itself the 'Hand of Shadows' and served a god named the 'Lord of Shadows'.

Under the temptation of evil power, he made his request and sacrificed his true love... From that day on, although he became the Duke of Wellington as he wished, he felt that his heart had fallen into In the dark.

"What do you want this time..."

His voice was dry, like a desert traveler who was about to die of thirst.

"The souls of all your children!"

The man in the shadows made a price.

"What?"

The Duke of Wellington was shocked: "The price is too high. I want to keep the family, but if I die from this, the Wellington family will eventually fall into the hands of others. What is the meaning of this to me?" "

"Perhaps you don't clearly understand what I mean... I'm talking about the souls of all the children around you now!"

The figure in the shadow laughed awkwardly, and seemed to be a little unwilling: "My Lord needs sacrifices, the more powerful and perfect the better... Originally, if your little Arthur is still there, no matter if it is offering his soul , or the sword in the stone, are enough to make my lord happy and fulfill any of your wishes, but now..."

"Then I have to add another requirement, you must rescue Arthur!"

The Duke of Wellington is well aware of the power of the Lord of Shadows. Although he is not well-known on the Ser continent, the Hand of Shadows is a huge dark organization with influence spread across almost all regions.

The power of the Lord of Shadows is also real, and he can at least complete some miracles. Compared with the gods who have empty names but no power, they are much higher.

Perhaps, only the true God in the church who has shown miracles can be comparable.

"make a deal……"

The shadow smiled, and the black card immediately burned.

Dark green flames dance wildly in the darkness, like a carnival between demons and demons...

…

"My king, as long as we climb over the mountain in front, we can see the Lion Heart City!"

In the military camp, the 20,000-strong army camped and rested in an orderly manner after a day's march, while Viscount Bale brought the rewards of the scouts.

Because of the map and the fact that Garcia and a group of surrendered highland princes were the inner ghosts, the Blue Dragon Alliance's march on the highlands could be said to be quite smooth.

"The opponent has gathered tens of thousands of people and seems to be prepared to fight to the end!"

Viscount Bale seemed a little excited: "Why don't we directly surround Lionheart City and send other troops to sweep the entire highland!"

"What a great plan!"

Wu Ming nodded in praise.

Once the high ground is taken, a Lion-Hearted City will be left, even if there are tens of thousands of troops, it will be of no use.

"It's just...a gathering of peasants and serfs. Do you want me to stop?"

He smiled and said: "Viscount Bale, I can assure you that the tall walls of Lion Heart City cannot stop me even for a moment!"

"Our wooden artillery unit has been used many times, and a large number of barrels have been damaged and must be rebuilt..."

Viscount Bale was a little confused and didn't know where Wu Ming got his confidence.

"Do you really think that after a few years, I have mastered the art of wooden cannon?"

Wu Ming looked at his leaving figure, but was speechless.

Even if wooden cannons are not good, with the help of gunpowder, if you dig a tunnel and blast under the city wall, it is also an excellent way to siege the city.

Of course, he has other preparations. When the time comes, he will take a multi-pronged approach and will not be afraid of Lion Heart City's powerful defense.

Those red lions relied on the protection of the city wall and gathered tens of thousands of people, hoping that Lion Heart City would become a quagmire that would hold him back. How could this wish come true?

"only……"

Wu Ming frowned.

The power of all peoples in his body was surging at this time, almost as much as that of the Conquering King, and the perception brought by the true spirit gave him a dangerous feeling like a ray of light on his back.

It was as if a conspiracy specifically targeting him had taken shape.

"This plan should be dangerous to me..."

Wu Ming's eyes were filled with excitement: "I almost thought that no one in this world could do anything to me!"

"Somebody come!"

He thought for a moment and gave the order.

Immediately, several knights came in and saluted respectfully: "Bring Arthur, and... you will guard the camp closely and be on standby at any time. All the watchmen will come near me to guard!"

In terms of the general situation at this time, even if Stormhorn or any of the princes rebelled, Wu Ming would have enough time to deal with it. Therefore, the only weakness was his own safety, and Arthur was also an unstable factor.

After calculating these clearly, you can naturally take targeted precautions.

The same goes for calling the knights and mages who can fight here. He has no intention of fighting the opponent alone. As the master of power, he will naturally use mountains and seas of lives to overwhelm his opponents, bully the weak with the strong, and dominate with the crowd. Widow! At this time, giving the enemy a fair chance to fight would be a complete mistake.

At night.

Bonfires were lit in the military camp.

In the main tent, a golden dinner plate was placed in front of Wu Ming, including golden roasted lamb chops, borscht soup, fruits after dinner and so on.

Across the dining table, Arthur looked pale, but he could still maintain the etiquette of a nobleman. He saluted respectfully, stared at the sumptuous dinner unconsciously, and swallowed: "Thank you for giving me this opportunity to have dinner together! "

"sit down!"

Wu Ming waved the waiter and guard to go down.

Anyway, Arthur couldn't be his opponent at all, and these people were quite relieved.

It's just that this kid seems to be a little unwilling. At least half of his current devouring look is just an act, trying to deceive his sympathy.

Wu Ming was quite speechless, and immediately pulled out a broken stone sword.

The moment he saw it, Arthur's movements froze.

"The Lion-Hearted King's proof of kingship only recognizes the True King's Holy Sword in Stone!"

Wu Ming smiled and showed off the glory on the sword: "It once belonged to you!"

Arthur was truly horrified now. It was extremely incredible that the Conqueror could pick up the Sword in the Stone before, but the Sword in the Stone at that time was just an ordinary carved stone sword.

Now that it is shining, it means that the power within it can be used.

‘Am I not the true king? ’

This blow to Arthur was simply unparalleled.

Although Wu Ming looked calm and calm on the outside, he was a little solemn in his heart, and his powerful spirit suppressed the call of the sword in the stone to its master.

‘The seal on this sword in the stone can be divided into four levels. The first level is a contact curse. No one who is not recognized can touch it! ’

‘The second level is personal gain. Once activated, the knight’s abilities will be greatly improved. ’

‘The third level is a small-scale gain, and the fourth level should be about summoning heroic spirits to achieve powerful battlefield-wide gains! ’

The current Wu Ming can only analyze the scope of the second layer of seals, but with his original quality, using the Sword in the Stone, no knight can be an enemy with one sword.

"Now, it belongs to you!"

Arthur put down the knife and fork in his hand, stared directly at the light on the sword in the stone, and spoke in a dry voice.

As soon as these words came out, Wu Ming suddenly felt that the resistance in the Sword in the Stone was weakening, and he already had a guess in his heart: 'Is it a contract and a ritual? ’

Some magic weapons must defeat the original owner and gain his approval before they can truly change owners, just like a magic ritual.

Of course, the core of The Sword in the Stone is not that simple.

"Arthur, as my prisoner, I give your father the power to redeem you, but before that, everything you have is at my disposal!"

The approaching shadow made Wu Ming stand up and come to Arthur. His oppressive eyes fell calmly: "Now... I want a cup of your blood!"

Under his gaze, even Arthur had to give in, cut his palm with a table knife, and poured blood into the silver cup.

"very good!"

Wu Ming picked up the silver cup, his eyes sparkling, and he thought silently: "Using the blood sacrifice method, we should be able to break the third layer of seals and greatly increase the power of the Sword in the Stone. In addition to still not being able to summon heroic spirits, it should be able to withstand it." All my strength."

Whoops!

At this moment, a breeze blew in his face, blowing a corner of the tent.

A stream of black air poured in from the gap, layer upon layer, forming another figure.

This strange scene made Arthur feel as if someone had grabbed his throat, and he was speechless for a long time.

"A shadow?"

Wu Ming, however, remained calm and glanced at the shadow with an indifferent gaze: "You dare to assassinate me, aren't you afraid of the guards outside?"

"Jie Jie...guard? Under my silent barrier, you can try it!"

The black shadow had a human-like shape, and its blood-red eyes looked at Arthur again: "Very good... you are all here!"

"Who are you?"

A vague possibility emerged, which made Arthur feel a little ecstatic.

call out!

The next moment, a black shadow rushed in front of Wu Ming like lightning, and a snow-white dagger appeared in his hand.

when!

Wu Ming raised his sword to block, and the sword in the stone burst out with golden flames. The moment it collided with the dagger, it shattered completely, and the flames fell on the black shadow without any reduction.

"ah!"

A scream was heard, black shadows roared one after another, and the shadows on his body suddenly dissipated.

"Too weak! Too weak! Not you! Let the real person come out!"

Wu Ming held a sword in one hand and spoke solemnly.

"My... my lord..."

The black shadow roared out a few words, and the aura on his body suddenly changed!

A vast and evil will suddenly descended!
