Volume 3 New World Chapter 5 Dance
The night in the royal capital is still brightly lit.
Her Royal Highness Princess Nono is going to hold a palace ball tonight. The news coming out in this troubled time is somewhat intriguing.
The name of the ball was Her Royal Highness the Princess' sixteenth birthday.
Although a court banquet had been held for this birthday more than ten days before, no ball was held because Princess Nono was not feeling well at the time.
In name, this dance was a make-up.
But all the important people in the royal capital knew that this ball held by Her Royal Highness the Princess was definitely not ordinary.
Almost all the dignitaries in the royal capital were invited to the invitation list.
Except for His Majesty the King, who may not appear at the ball due to recent illness, everyone else is invited.
Including the high priest of the temple.
…
"prom?"
In the Great Temple of Shadows, Capella sneered as she looked at the invitation in her hand: “Her brother is about to be executed, and she still has the mind to hold a ball?”
"Who can tell for sure about the affairs of the royal family? It is said that Prince Aragon and Princess Nono have a very good relationship. But with the current state of the Nottingham royal family, the possibility of the first queen in history not being ruled out."
The attendant beside him said respectfully: "In my opinion, she specially invited you because she wanted to preserve the bloodline of the Nottingham royal family."
Capella groaned, “Or maybe, she wants to fight to the death?”
The attendant shook his head and said, "The old king no longer has that ability, and how much energy does that little girl, Nono, have? How big a wave can she make?"
"Aragorn volunteered to be imprisoned, and now he is imprisoned in the divine water prison. Even if he wants to escape, it will alert the four great priests."
"With the four adults working together, he will never be able to escape."
"But if you are really not interested, you don't have to care."
Capela said calmly: “Just say I’m not feeling well.”
The attendant nodded slowly. He was about to bend down to inform the people outside the door, but at this moment, the always decisive high priest suddenly changed his mind:
"etc!"
"I'll go."
"This girl Nuonuo is not that simple. Although the people she secretly recruited are not as many as her brother's, she still has her own power."
"Over the years, the old king seemed to have intentionally handed over power to her. He must have foreseen something."
"They certainly don't dare to turn against the Temple, but Aragorn's actions will undoubtedly anger the Temple. If she really wants to leave some blood for the Nottingham royal family, I would like to see how she wants to please the Temple tonight; if not, tonight is also a good opportunity."
"Nottingham has dominated Poussin for so many years, it's no surprise that it's over now."
After saying this, she stood up slowly and waved her robe:
"I'm going to change my clothes."
"When was the last time you danced?"
…
Outside the Great Temple of Shadows, the supreme high priest waited on the carriage and drove slowly towards the royal capital.
The King's Road was built from the royal capital all the way to the foot of the Dongji Snow Mountain. It is the flattest and safest route.
It would take no more than fifteen minutes to reach the palace from here.
But these fifteen minutes were enough for Marvin to take action.
In the dark shadows, the night walkers move quietly.
His whereabouts are erratic, but his ultimate goal is the lofty Shadow Temple!
The High Priestess of Shadow is the chosen one of the Prince of Shadow. Although she does not have legendary strength, every corner of the Shadow Temple is within her perception!
She usually stays in the temple and rarely goes out.
The key to Marvin's plan this time is to lure the high priest out of the temple at all costs.
The princess's ball was just a smokescreen, a cover.
Of course, if the Shadow High Priest does not leave the temple, Marvin has another trick up his sleeve.
"The first step went smoothly. This high priest is indeed suspicious enough."
Marvin sneered in his heart, suddenly accelerated, and passed between the two guards.
The two of them seemed to feel nothing and just stood there.
This is the benefit of 180 points of super high stealth.
With Erickson's brooch, Marvin had the confidence to fight against the Shadow Temple.
We must fight quickly and decisively!
Princess, it won’t take long!
Marvin quickly moved through the Shadow Temple according to the route he remembered.
Soon, he walked around a group of clergymen and arrived at the prayer hall.
In the center of the hall, there were thousands of candles, and the statue of the Shadow Prince was a man wearing a mask.
The shadows glowed on the stone statue.
"Glenos..."
Marvin stared coldly at the divine stone statue, but the statue felt nothing at all.
Erickson's brooch could even deceive the celestial clairvoyant, let alone a stone statue of a god blessed with the power of detection!
The next second, Marvin did not stop, bypassed the prayer hall, and found an entrance leading downwards.
This is a divine prison.
Under the stairs, all kinds of prisoners are held, and the further down they go, the more dangerous they tend to be.
And this staircase is also filled with various masters.
As far as Marvin knows, the strongest people on this staircase should be those four old immortals.
They have been guarding the last seal for who knows how many years.
The entire divine cage has a total of six floors.
Marvin was familiar with the route and slipped into the cage.
Once you get here, you have to be careful about everything.
Although the detection magic cannot catch Marvin, if he steps on any alarm, he will be in trouble.
"Time is running out."
He wiped his sweat and skipped the first three floors.
A serious criminal like Aragorn must be in the dungeon on the fourth or fifth floor.
Sure enough, he found Aragorn stripped naked in the dungeon on the fourth floor.
There were many marks of whipping on his body, his lower body was soaked in green liquid, and two handcuffs were tightly wrapped around his wrists.
There are a total of six guards on this floor.
Each guard is a level 15 Paladin.
Marvin walked over quietly.
"Are you ready?"
The sound like mosquitoes and flies reached Aragorn's ears.
The prince in distress suddenly raised his head.
The six temple paladins noticed the abnormality at the same time. One of them sneered and said, "What are you looking at?"
"You filthy creature who disobeyed God's will. If it weren't for the order of the high priest, I would burn you to death with divine fire right now!"
Aragorn slowly raised his head, looked at the temple paladin seriously, and said:
"Give me a sword."
The six paladins were stunned for a moment, and the next second, they laughed wildly:
"What's wrong with you? Why should we give you a sword?"
However, at this moment, a cold light suddenly flashed in the darkness.
Clank, clank!
With two crisp sounds, the rage spread like wildfire and directly cut off the shackles of divine magic!
Under the astonished gaze of the paladins, Aragorn took the sword and stepped out of the acid pool.
His eyes were as calm as ever:
"After tonight, there will be no more temples."
