Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

With Zhou Ning's spiritual intuition, he could sense that Charles I was currently inside the Darkland Fortress, accompanied by a powerful aura and some demigod auras of moderate strength.

This should be the last legacy of the Braxton royal family.

Through the dual feedback of the first and third dreams, the interior of the Darkland Fortress was now covered with charred marks and puffs of black smoke, with flames still lingering in some places. It was half charred and half damaged.

This should be Zhou Ning's third time entering the Darkland Fortress. Different from the previous two times, this time he is ready to end the rule of the Kingdom of Braxton with his own hands.

This is fate's choice!

On both sides of the passage leading to the King's Hall are some murals depicting the arduous journeys of the wise kings of the Kingdom of Braxton to establish the kingdom. These murals are still relatively intact. At the end of the passage is a stone tablet with the following text engraved on it:

"The Great Charles I built a kingdom from nothing; the Great Charles II established laws based on the Code of French; and the Great Charles III established the Settler System and expanded the territory. This inscription commemorates these three legendary kings."

Zhou Ning's eyes swept across the murals and turned to the throne in the middle of the King's Hall.

Charles I, crowned, dressed in a red coat, sporting a handsome mustache, sat atop it, maintaining his kingly demeanor and a deep expression. However, for unknown reasons, his strength had declined slightly, falling back to the level of a top-tier angel.

Beside Him, more than a dozen royal demigods stood there, their faces filled with nervous expressions.

A little further back, Zhou Ning saw an old man wearing a black robe and a hood. The old man was also at the level of Angel King, and was looking at him with a complicated look.

With this attire and this strength, he appeared here, obviously with only one identity - Goodwin!

The name that once appeared in the simulator, the name that appeared in the book, the name that was inextricably linked to oneself, finally met after crossing countless time and space.

But for some reason, Zhou Ning felt that Goodwin had no hostility towards him.

After a long moment, Charles I broke his silence, stroking the armrest of the throne with his right hand, and looked at Zhou Ning and said:

"Wayne Stewell, maybe we could talk."

"I know you are powerful, and the Charles family has no intention of becoming your enemy. The seventh king, the initiator of the Rise of the Ascendant ritual, has already paid the price. I can swear in the name of the royal power and the name of the Huddlestone family that no king from now on will ever be involved in such a ritual again. We can also legislate to provide appropriate benefits to the people and compensate them a hundredfold or a thousandfold for their losses."

"And I can also promise you that the Starry Sky Church can preach freely in the Kingdom of Blyston. As for you, the Kingdom of Blyston will lift your exile and even grant you a title of nobility. Seventeen of the twenty-four clan precept families are now vacant, so you can choose whatever you want. You should know that clan precepts can be elevated to authority, right?

"This is a promise from the first king of the Kingdom of Braxton."

These conditions seemed familiar, and some of them had been mentioned by Charles VII before.

Charles I and Charles VII are indeed from the same family. Even their methods of persuading people are so similar.

In the silence, Zhou Ning shook his head, his eyes calm: "It's too late."

In his inventory, two small, tattered books opened one after another, and lines of text popped out:

"Fortunately, I got there first. Those who stand against my great master, Wayne Stewell, will not meet a good end. This strong little book will definitely lead the charge. Charles I's family motto is royal power, and this power will weaken as royal power weakens. They may not understand, or perhaps they have overlooked, that as the foundation of the royal world, the people are the foundation of royal power. They have already lost the people's trust."

"At this moment, in all paths of destiny, the Braxton royal family will become history today. His chance of winning is 0%. Yes, exactly 0%!"

Another little book also wrote:

"I only just now realize how handsome and powerful the great Wayne Stewell is. Will you be my master? To show your sincerity, in approximately ten seconds, a strong tidal wave will strike the interior of Dockland Fortress, causing considerable trouble for Charles I."

"Considering the unpredictable weather in Dockland and Charles I's rapidly declining fortunes in the next four or five seconds, this is simply a matter of taking advantage of the situation and is also a very logical thing to do. Furthermore, considering the opponent is in spirit form, lightning can cause severe damage to him."

Charles I's smile began to become a little stiff:

"Wait, if you're still not satisfied, you can also propose other conditions. I have an Angel King by my side, so the outcome is uncertain. Teacher, you will stand on my side, right?"

At this moment, the old and gaunt Goodwin seemed to have grown even older. He was silent for a moment, shook his head, and stood beside Zhou Ning with his cane. He made his attitude clear with his actions, closed his eyes, and said:

"I'm sorry. But royal power is not eternal. Fate tells me that it's time for the Kingdom of Braxton to become history."

"No, you can't do this. The Kingdom of Bryston is also your hard work!" Charles I finally became anxious at this moment. Then, as if sensing something, his temperament suddenly became extremely majestic. In his hand, a one-handed sword formed purely from purple light appeared, and he launched the judgment:

"In the name of royal authority, I will bring justice to all those who defy it!"

"Those who defy the royal authority will be struck by thousands of thunderbolts!"

Boom!

At this moment, a strong fluctuation of thunder elements and a terrifying vortex of lightning suddenly appeared in the spacious royal hall. Above the ceiling, thousands of thunders roared, and countless lightning bolts intertwined together and continuously struck down on the head of Charles I, burning his body and distorting his face.

He didn't quite understand why he was the one who got hurt even though he was the one who initiated the judgment.

At the same time, lightning raged in the royal hall, destroying the murals, the throne, and the nearby stone tablet that recorded the great achievements of the Three Wise Kings.

At this moment, Zhou Ning took out a revolver from his hand, pointed it at Charles I, and pulled the trigger one after another, firing bullets with the power of the Angel King.

Sometimes, when the power level reaches a certain level, even the most ordinary attack method can cause terrible damage.

Charles I showed a look of surprise on his face. Dense patterns and symbols appeared on the surface of the sword in his hand. Then his figure suddenly became blurred and he threw himself into another space, trying to avoid Zhou Ning's attack.

Zhou Ning's expression remained unchanged, he just kept firing shot after shot.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

These bullets were either wrapped in crackling lightning and ripples, or burning with blazing flames, or attached with shining holy light, and were fired one after another.

But just the second bullet shattered the space, and then the third bullet poured into Charles I's body.

The fourth shot! The fifth shot! The sixth shot!

Under a series of attacks, the skin on his head quickly melted and peeled off, making his originally intact head full of cracks. The last bullet completely penetrated his brain, causing his head to disintegrate into pieces and scatter all over the ground.

For this final bullet, Zhou Ning deliberately used a bullet imbued with the aura of life. This caused his body to disintegrate, transforming into tiny green starlight before disappearing into the air.

A top angel whose status was the King of Angels died at the hands of Zhou Ning without any chance of fighting back. Even the way he died was just like those people who died in reality just now.

At this time, a prompt came quietly from the panel:

[The progress of the "Kingdom Has No Eternity" quest has been updated.]

【Kill Charles I (1/1).】

Zhou Ning put the revolver back into the inventory, exchanged glances with Goodwin, and chose not to communicate with him. Instead, he silently crossed the passage and walked up the spiral stairs.
