Rebirth in Another World: The Ultimate Legend
Chapter 180 Meeting the King (Part 1)
After a long journey, they finally arrived at their destination—the royal palace. From afar, the magnificent palace resembled a giant castle standing on the earth, its grandeur and magnificence breathtaking.
Towering city walls surrounded the entire palace, adorned with exquisite carvings and magnificent decorations. The palace gates were particularly imposing, crafted from pure gold and inlaid with countless dazzling gemstones, shimmering brilliantly in the sunlight.
The knight led Lin Yu and the woman slowly into the palace. The moment they stepped through the palace gates, an air of extravagance washed over them. Before their eyes was a wide avenue, lined with neat rows of stone pillars, each carved with lifelike mythical creatures.
Walking along the avenue, we soon arrived at the main hall of the palace. This palace was practically built of gold; the walls, ceiling, and floor all shimmered with a golden light. Inside, the palace was filled with a dazzling array of precious works of art and antiques.
Lin Yu and the woman were deeply shocked by the magnificent golden scene, and for a moment they were overwhelmed by the sight, as if they were in a dream.
In the grand hall, the king sat regally on his throne. Tall and imposing, his broad shoulders seemed capable of bearing the weight of the entire nation. He wore a dazzling golden crown, studded with countless glittering gems that shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight. His face was resolute and dignified, with thick eyebrows beneath deep, unfathomable eyes that conveyed wisdom and decisiveness. His straight nose and tightly pressed lips revealed his unwavering will. He wore a magnificent purple robe, embroidered with exquisite patterns in gold thread, and a jewel-encrusted belt cinched his waist, further emphasizing his supreme status.
"I heard you came from that evil castle. Tell me the details quickly." The king sat majestically on his throne, his eyes fixed on Lin Yu and the woman below, and said in a deep and powerful voice.
Lin Yu and the woman exchanged a glance, then Lin Yu stepped forward and respectfully bowed to the king. They then began to recount their terrifying experiences in the castle to the king in detail.
"After we entered the castle, a sinister and eerie atmosphere permeated the air. Black vines climbed all over the walls, and every now and then, chilling screams could be heard..." Lin Yu vividly described the scene inside the castle, as if those terrifying scenes were right before everyone's eyes.
The woman would occasionally chime in, adding details such as the various monsters and traps she encountered, and how she repeatedly escaped death. The whole story was full of twists and turns, keeping everyone in the audience holding their breath.
The king listened quietly without interrupting their narration. However, as the story unfolded, his brow furrowed deeper and deeper, clearly shocked and worried by what he was hearing.
When Lin Yu and the woman finally finished recounting the whole story, the king remained silent, resting his chin on his hand, lost in deep thought. The hall was completely silent; no one dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the king's contemplation.
After a long while, the king seemed to come to his senses, raised his head, and stared intently at Lin Yu and the woman. He slowly said, "What you have said is truly shocking. The evil power in that castle is so strong that it is beyond my imagination."
Lin Yu quickly clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, everything we have said is true, without a single falsehood. If we hadn't given our all and used our skills to fight against them, we probably wouldn't have survived that demonic abyss!"
The king nodded slightly, indicating that he believed what they said. Then, he turned to the woman beside him and asked sharply, "Woman, did you discover anything special in the castle?"
The woman's heart tightened. She quickly lowered her head, avoiding the king's gaze, and replied softly, "Your Majesty, I was in a dangerous situation at the time and was only thinking about how to save my life. I had no time to think about anything else, so I didn't discover anything special." After speaking, she secretly glanced at the king's face and, seeing that he was not acting strangely, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
The king narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of doubt flashing deep within them. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke, "Very well, since you were able to escape safely from such a dangerous place, you must possess some extraordinary abilities." His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.
Just then, a minister standing to the side hurriedly stepped forward, bowed, and said with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, the backgrounds and origins of these two individuals are unclear. We must investigate them thoroughly to avoid any hidden conspiracies or schemes." The minister's expression was serious, and he seemed quite worried about the matter.
The king waved his hand gently, signaling his ministers not to say anything more. After a moment of contemplation, he decisively ordered, "Let them stay in the palace for now. I will decide how to handle this matter after careful consideration." With that, he waved his hand, signaling his guards to take Lin Yu and the woman away from the area.
Lin Yu and the woman followed the guards further and further away, but the woman's anxiety grew ever stronger. She secretly worried that her true identity might be inadvertently revealed. And if things went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Before long, the two arrived at a room in the palace. Lin Yu looked around and saw that although the room was not luxurious, it was still elegant and clean. However, his mind was not on these things at the moment. He turned to the woman beside him and said softly, "I always feel that there is an inexplicable and strange atmosphere in this palace."
Hearing this, the woman nodded repeatedly in agreement. She replied worriedly, "Indeed, I wonder how that king will ultimately treat us." Before she finished speaking, a series of light footsteps approached from afar. Hearing this unexpected sound, the two, already tense, instantly became even more anxious, their hearts pounding involuntarily.
