Human beings can no longer satisfy us

Chapter 136 The Throne.

In the palace garden, the maid accompanied the first princess, Princess Lucy, to play on the green lawn.The bright sunshine shines on the garden, and the white jade-like gazebo and pool make people feel comfortable and relaxing.The garden is full of laughter from the ten-year-old princess, accompanied by helpless and emotional maids.

However, they did not notice a man in black robe approaching quietly. The man held a dagger emitting cold light in his hand.

Just as he was approaching the maid, the maid seemed to notice something strange and quickly turned her head.The moment she saw the man in black, the expression on her face froze.

I saw that the man in black rushed towards the back of the maid at an incredible speed, where Lucy was.

"don't want!!"

The maid's scream pierced the sky, breaking the tranquility of the palace.

"Successful!"

The man in black knocked away the maid and stabbed Lucy with the dagger in his hand.The young Lucy didn't know what happened at all, she stared blankly at the rushing man in black and didn't move.

Just between the lightning and the flint, a white figure rushed towards the direction of the black shadow at a terrifying speed.

He kicked the black-robed man's wrist, and at the same time turned over and punched the black-robed man in the face.Without keeping his hand, the huge force directly broke the bones of the man in black.

Click!

A tingling sound spread around, followed by the crash of the black-robed man flying out and crashing into the gazebo.

Boom!

The entire gazebo collapsed due to the impact of the man in black, and it collapsed in the blink of an eye.Stone chips splashed in all directions, and the black-robed man fell into it and did not move anymore.

The loud noise alarmed the guards, and it was long overdue.When he saw the man in black robe, he was startled immediately, and rushed up to capture him.When I looked to the side again, I found that the white hair of lace and silver in a black dress was floating around, like a Valkyrie.

"your Highness!"

The maid who came back to her senses rushed over and hugged Lucy, and exclaimed in horror.

The young Lucy didn't understand what happened at all, but just looked around blankly.And the eyes finally fell on Lei's body, and the powerful back seemed to attract her body and mind.

After that, everyone arrived.After learning about the situation, I felt terrible, but I didn't expect another killer to sneak in.

Then when Apollo arrived, he hugged his sister in fear:

"Lucy, I'm sorry. It was my negligence, I didn't expect it to turn out like this!"

After comforting Lucy, Apollo turned to look at the land buds standing aside to guard against him.At this moment, Lei stood aside without saying a word, holding her chest with her hands, without much expression on her face.

"Thank you very much, Captain Lei. Without you, I can't imagine the consequences."

Apollo said and bowed to Lei to thank him. This is definitely not an ordinary thing.

Seeing Apollo's move, Lei nodded, accepting it.But she was more concerned about what was going on, why even the princess was assassinated.

"Any clues?"

After hearing this, Apollo paused and quickly turned to ask the guard on the side:

"Where's the killer!?"

"I'm so sorry, Your Highness. The killer is dead!"

The guard hurriedly half-kneeled in front of Apollo to report, and this result cut off the clue.After listening to the guard's report, Apollo waved his hand heartbrokenly to let the guard go to work.Then she looked at Rei with a headache:
"It seems that the situation is no different from before."

At this point, Apollo's face flashed with suspicion, and at the same time, he thought of Lin Xiaolong's previous words.Immediately, he thought of his younger brother, the second prince, Crowe, and his suspicion became the biggest.But Apollo didn't say it, because Claudius is the prince and no one can doubt it.

However, Apollo had his own ideas.

Lei, who was standing in front of Apollo, naturally realized that he had something to say.But since others don't say it, Lei won't ask.After all, it was someone else's business, so he looked at Apollo blankly and knew that there would be no useful news, so he turned and walked away.

Walk and say:

"I will pay attention to the situation in the palace. Your Highness, don't be too negligent. If necessary, stay with other people and don't act alone."

After finishing speaking, he jumped up and disappeared.

I saw Lei stepping on the wall of the palace and leaping towards the roof.

Seeing this scene, Apollo and the guards looked surprised, their strength was beyond expectations.In particular, Apollo praised in his heart: I didn't expect Xue to find such a strong helper, it's great.

Seeing Lei's strength, Apollo felt confident.

Now Apollo has something to do, after making arrangements for his sister.Putting on a crimson cloak, his face was full of determination, and he walked towards the palace with firm steps.

"Prepare the guards for me, I'm going to see Crowe."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

When the guards heard what Apollo said, they immediately began to prepare their staff.

The large-scale action attracted the attention of others, while Lin Xiaolong and Patty sat in the room and felt puzzled by the situation outside.

Lin Xiaolong asked Patty suspiciously:

"Is there something going on outside?"

Hearing this, Patty smiled slightly.Now that the entire palace is under her control, she naturally knows the situation outside.Said gently:

"Prince Apollo, he is going to see his younger brother."

"Oh? The second prince, Crow."

Lin Xiaolong felt strange, it was not that he had promised not to act rashly.Now that he suddenly wanted to meet Crowe, Lin Xiaolong immediately became concerned.

"Do you know why, Patty?"

Looking at Patty who was reading a book, Lin Xiaolong had a premonition that she must know.It wasn't clear how she knew it, but she did.

Patty had no intention of hiding this. She stopped reading and said with a smile:
"Just now, the First Princess Lucy was almost assassinated, and was later saved by Captain Lei. This may be the reason why Apollo went to see Crowe."

After listening to Patty's explanation, Lin Xiaolong nodded in understanding.

Indeed, his own sister was assassinated.And it is very likely that there is something going on with Claude behind the scenes, so the older brother will naturally have to observe it.However, this situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to Crowe.

Lin Xiaolong was thinking about the relationship between the few people, putting aside his identity as an employer.In Lin Xiaolong's eyes, Apollo, Crowe, and Lucy all have huge suspicions.

Because no one can tell about the royal family's seizure of power, and in Lin Xiaolong's mind, the biggest suspect is not Crowe, but Apollo.

From the current situation, the disadvantages to Crowe are huge.Apollo has the upper hand, but Lin Xiaolong will not draw conclusions because the situation of Princess Lucy is not known yet.

Seeing Lin Xiaolong's pensive look, Patty asked curiously:

"So, who do you think could be behind the scenes?"

"I don't know. Now all three are suspected. But to me, an outsider, I won't say anything. If Apollo is behind the scenes, I won't care too much. I won't interfere in the affairs of the royal family. And we are just We are just collecting money to protect Apollo, and their struggle has nothing to do with us. It is precisely because of this that Mary, Pupa and Lei are not too dedicated. They are just sitting around doing their own things. "

Leaning lazily on the chair, Lin Xiaolong didn't pay much attention at all.

But what he said surprised Patty, who stared at Lin Xiaolong in amazement:
"I thought you would be the kind of person who can take care of everything."

"Cut, I'm not a good person. Why bother, I eat too much."

Lin Xiaolong was very dissatisfied with Patty's evaluation, but Patty was very satisfied with this answer.

At least I can be sure that Lin Xiaolong will not be the kind of person who does good deeds for no reason. Patty recalled what he had offended Lin Xiaolong, and combined with the current situation, he has a general understanding of Lin Xiaolong.

"Lin Xiaolong, are you really not a good person?"

The question was inexplicable, which made Lin Xiaolong a little dissatisfied.But he didn't say anything, he didn't care at all.

Seeing that Lin Xiaolong didn't answer, Patty naturally didn't pursue the question.Changing the subject, he asked:

"Need to protect Apollo?"

"sorry to bother you."

Lin Xiaolong nodded without hesitation and smiled, as if he was waiting for her to say this.

Suddenly Patty was a little unhappy, and complained:

"I didn't expect you to keep a pregnant woman so busy. Be careful of retribution."

"It's all right, you're an alchemist. There's absolutely no shortage of miscarriage potions. Don't think I don't know about alchemist potions. Anyway, I've been there before."

Lin Xiaolong smiled shamelessly, not caring about this at all.Leaning lazily on the chair, not worried at all.

After hearing this, Patty's face flashed with surprise, and he looked at Lin Xiaolong questioningly.My heart was filled with wonder: Is this guy also an alchemist?Then why do I have to give him the potion?

"weirdo."

Not knowing what happened to Lin Xiaolong, Patty muttered.

At the same time, a group of lizards surrounded Apollo in the unknown shadow.These lizards are Patty's dolls in the air, through which Patty can know the situation around Apollo.And each doll has extraordinary strength.

In the corridor of the palace, Apollo led the guards towards Crowe's bedroom.

At this moment, Crowe also received the news of Apollo's arrival, and sat in his seat showing a subtle smile:

"Is it finally unbearable? Brother Huang. However, as long as you can't kill me today, you won't be able to kill me later."

Crowe's voice was very gloomy, but the expression on his face was very sad.

After a while, Apollo stood in the main hall of Crowe's bedroom with his guards.And Crowe sat in his seat waiting for Apollo's arrival, with a vague smile on his face.

The moment the two meet, the moment their eyes meet.Apollo shouted angrily:

"Crow! Did you do it? Do you want the throne that much!?"

Unexpectedly direct, unexpectedly tough, and unexpectedly affirmative.

Seeing Apollo's actions, Klaue's face flashed in surprise.With a sad smile on his face, he said deeply:
"Brother Huang, if you want the throne, I can give it to you. Please let go of my beloved sister, she is just a child."

Crowe stared at Apollo on the opposite side like a torch, without backing down.The tone is very certain and strong.

For a moment, the two were silent.

No one spoke again, but the atmosphere was full of dignity.The surrounding guards didn't dare to breathe at this moment, their eyes were fixed on the two princes.As long as an order is given, both sides will rush forward to kill them desperately.

Surprisingly, Apollo and Crowe said in a cold voice at the same time:
"As long as you let go of your beloved sister, the throne will be yours!"

"As long as you let go of your beloved sister, the throne will be yours!"

At this moment, the guards on both sides were stunned, looking at the two people with wide eyes in disbelief.
