Chapter 536 Princess Lana, You Don’t Want to

Chapter 536 Princess Lana, You Don’t Want to…

Just as Bone King stood up to leave, a messenger rushed in from outside the tavern with an ecstatic look on his face, "Great news, the goblin army has been wiped out by the mysterious adventurer!"

Bone King: ???
His head was full of question marks. He was at a loss as to what to do with this sudden news.

Because based on the intelligence he obtained along the way, he had actually roughly figured out the grassroots strength of this world. A country like the Kingdom posed no threat to the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Thousands of goblin troops could bring a crisis of national destruction to the kingdom, but in his eyes, the goblin army was just a free item for a recharge activity. If it could destroy a country, then he could just fight casually, right?

As a result, such a good opportunity to improve his reputation suddenly disappeared, which made him very disappointed.

He also couldn't figure out what kind of adventurer could wipe out the goblin army in such a short period of time. After all, he found that the adventurers in this world were very weak.

To completely wipe out the goblin army in a short period of time, you need to be at least level 50, right?
Suddenly, Bone King became alert and felt that the water in the kingdom might be deeper than he thought.

Originally, he just wanted to improve his reputation during the trip, and have some fun, playing around in the world, and he didn't expect to dig up any explosive information in the kingdom.

But now it seemed that the value of the kingdom was higher than he had imagined, so he used message magic and began to give orders for his other arrangements in the kingdom.

At this time, Sebastian and the combat maid Soliuxiang, who were far away in the royal capital, received the message from the Bone King.

Bone King asked them to use any means necessary to infiltrate the high-ranking nobles as quickly as possible and dig deep into the kingdom's secret intelligence.

…………

Kingdom, inside the capital.

The sufferings of the country folk seem to not exist here. The roads are busy with cars and passers-by have sleek faces. Even the servants of the rich families are very well-dressed.

It's only in the alleys and shadows at the edges that the sordidness takes place.

Lu Li sniffed the mixed smells in the air, frowned slightly, and then walked towards the palace.

The current king of this country is Rampussa III, who objectively speaking is an ordinary monarch who has made no major mistakes and has no achievements. It's just that now in his old age, illness and old age have made him unable to even get out of bed, and his mind is not very clear.

In reality, the country is mainly ruled by the old aristocracy headed by the eldest prince Pablo and Princess Lana, who often offers advice to the kingdom and influences national policies. On the surface, the brother and sister seem to be quite harmonious and friendly, helping each other.

On the contrary, the fat second prince is not very noticeable, and looks like a useless person who just wants to eat and wait for death.

Lu Li knew clearly that due to the limitations of the technological power of the time, even with the existence of extraordinary powers such as magic, a country without an industrial base would not have a developed communication network, and the territory that the rulers could control would be limited.

Therefore, even if he wants to unify the human camp, it will definitely be an alliance-like United Nations in the short term. He cannot completely break up and reorganize the countries. The interests involved are very broad, and when it affects the lives of a large number of civilians, it will be difficult for him to increase his justice points.

Therefore, he also has to maintain the country's autonomy to a certain extent. Considering stability, it is best for him to let the country's original royal family continue to directly govern the country, but he has to make the royal family listen to him.

These complicated ideas were certainly not thought out by Lu Li, but were suggestions given to him by Chu Chu. Otherwise, with Lu Li's simple mind, he would probably be busy killing explorers of the ancient space at this time.

By the way, before coming to the royal capital, Lu Li had used the teleportation skill to go to the Empire and the Holy Kingdom, and killed all the ancient space explorers who had risen up in the surrounding areas to massacre humans and reap fear, and sent them back to the world above.

Currently, Lu Li is far ahead in the fear value score.

After all, except for a few dozen who escaped and hid somewhere unknown, all other explorers of the ancient space were killed by him, and they would have to wait at least a day's CD before they could return to this world.

During the off-season, this world is Lu Li’s stand-alone game, and the ancient explorers can only stare at him as he scores points.

Lu Li is not as meticulous as Bone King in doing things, and the battle for the world is a race against time. He does not have the time to slowly lay out and wait for a month or two to infiltrate the kingdom. He prefers a simple and direct approach, using force (fear) to dominate.

Lu Li believes that rule by fear is a wrong way to rule, but he also has to admit that this form of rule is very effective in the short term.

He does not need the top leaders of human countries to be loyal to him for thousands of years. Just one or two months of absolute loyalty out of fear will be enough for him to win this war for the world.

Thinking of this, Lu Li walked straight into the palace.

Because he was moving so fast and intentionally avoided ordinary people, no one noticed that he had entered the palace.

Ten minutes later, the two princes and Princess Lana were summoned to the king's bedroom.

As soon as they opened the door, they saw a man in a black windbreaker sitting next to his father's bed, leaning sideways with one hand on the old king's pillow.

Even though the man did not deliberately release any aura, his natural temperament still made people instinctively tremble.

The eldest prince, Pablo, was the worst. Although he was tall and handsome, when he saw Lu Li, who was obviously a murderer, sitting next to his father, the first thing he thought of was not to rush forward to protect his father. Instead, he took a step back trembling and bumped into the door that had been closed at some point.

He was frightened by the ominous atmosphere in the room, as if there was a blade of death hanging on his neck at all times, making him slowly sit down against the door.

The second prince was not much better. He had an ugly smile on his fat face, as if he wanted to negotiate with Lu Li, but beads of sweat the size of beans kept flowing down his forehead, and he couldn't utter a word.

On the contrary, Princess Lana, who looks beautiful and fragile, stood there like a quietly blooming lotus.

She inherited her mother's beauty, with long, shiny golden hair, lips like smiling cherry blossoms, and a fair, smooth complexion.

The deep blue eyes were reminiscent of sapphires, full of soft colors, and there was no sign of panic at this moment.

Because of Princess Lana's calmness, Lu Li looked at her a little longer and found that although she was only level 10 in this world, her mental strength was quite high.

But this is not the main reason why the girl is calm. Her calmness depends more on her twisted and cold character.

Lu Li raised his hand and brushed across the evil god's mask, revealing his true appearance. "Let me tell you in advance, I'm a human, you don't have to be so nervous."

Although Lu Li said so, the eldest prince still sat there slumped, with fear in his eyes and a trembling voice, "Stop lying, you monster in human skin! Hurry... Hurry and leave my father."

Lu Li sighed when he heard that. The next moment, the eldest prince exploded on the spot due to the high-intensity spiritual pressure. Blood splattered all over the room and also splashed on the second prince from the side. Princess Lana's white dress was also stained with scarlet spots, and there were also a few drops of blood on her fair face.

"Okay, one competitor is eliminated."

Lu Li smiled in a self-proclaimed kind and cheerful smile, "I called you here this time to announce the old king's will and decide the next king."

Listening to Lu Li's words, the second prince's eyes were full of absurdity and humiliation.

Is this human language? Although my father's health is not good, he can still live for another year or two. Even if he wants to announce his will, he should sit up and say it himself, or leave a legal will contract.

How can an outsider be allowed to sit here and casually talk about a "will"? This is simply the highest insult to the royal family of a country!
He was invited here after receiving intelligence five minutes ago. The messenger said that the king was critically ill and that the will was to be announced to decide the heir, so he hurried over.

The result was not the case at all. He should have understood that the messenger's panicked and frightened eyes had already revealed that the matter was unusual.

The second prince was not sure whether the other party was a human or not, but he guessed that the other party should be a master of the Kingdom of Religion or the Kingdom of Councillors, who wanted to indirectly control the kingdom with absolute force. "Excuse me, how should I address you, Your Excellency?"

At this time, Princess Lana lifted her skirt and saluted Lu Li with a beautiful smile on her face, but because of the embellishment of blood, she looked a little weird.

The second prince looked at his sister as if she were a monster. He couldn't understand why she could remain so calm in such a situation and face the butcher who killed his brother with a smile.

"My name is Lu Li, and I'm a human."

Lu Li emphasized his racial identity again.

"Dear Mr. Lu, are you a strong man from the Church?"

Princess Lana asked with a smile on her face.

"You can think so."

Lu Li nodded.

"If you wish to rule the kingdom by ruling the royal family, then I recommend someone to you."

Princess Lana took a step back and leaned her hands to the side, aiming at her second brother. "My brother has outstanding wisdom, will be a qualified ruler, and will be able to judge the situation and meet your requirements."

"Oh? You are so calm and intelligent, why don't you recommend yourself?"

Lu Li asked with a smile.

At this moment, the Second Prince's expression was terribly gloomy. He had already sorted out the situation in front of him and knew that he was at the mercy of others. All they could ask for now was to survive first.

But I was still very surprised that my sister would take the initiative to recommend me.

"Mr. Lu, you are joking. How can a weak woman like me shoulder the responsibility of a country? All I want is to live my life in peace and be with the one I love."

Princess Lana said with a smile, wisdom gleaming in her calm eyes.

Lu Li nodded. He was not dissatisfied with the result. He originally wanted the second prince to be in power and Princess Lana to assist him.

But the plan went so smoothly that it seemed as if he was being led by Lana, which made him a little unhappy.

He saw no fear or awe in the eyes of this girl, so it was possible that Lana would rebel against the Bone King or the Ancient Explorers.

Lu Li wanted to use the other party's talent for governing the country, but also wanted to avoid accidents, so he had to make this sickly and perverted girl understand her position.

"The sight is wrong."

Lu Li said softly, and a force of gravity suddenly pressed down in the room.

Although Lana had some combat skills, she was still overwhelmed by the gravity and was forced to her knees in an instant. Her knees were broken on the floor and blood oozed out.

Lu Li stood up, walked slowly to Lana's side, reached out and grabbed the girl's jaw, using his strength to help her raise her head under the pressure of gravity.

But there was still no trace of fear in his calm eyes. On that beautiful and delicate face like porcelain, there was a signature, beautiful and terrifying smile.

boom--

At this moment, the door of the room was broken, and a young guard in warrior uniform rushed in and shouted, "Let Princess Lana go!"

However, the boy named Clem took just one step forward before he fell to his knees due to the excessive gravity and had to kowtow to allow blood to flow to his brain.

[Fear value score +30]

Lu Li smiled when he heard the notification tone. He used his hands to pry Princess Lana's pretty face open and made her look at Clem. "You are very smart and you should know what I want. At the same time, you are very courageous. I can't hurt you and brand you with a loyalty called fear. This is really distressing..."

As he spoke, the floor beneath Climb began to crumble, and Climb let out a painful roar, apparently about to collapse due to the excessive gravity.

[Fear value score +50]

Lu Li leaned down and squatted beside Princess Lana. He held Princess Lana's jaw with his hand and forced her to look at the suffering Clem. At the same time, he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "By the way, the people I killed cannot be resurrected by magic~"

It was like the whisper of the devil, without any need for bloody scenes or brutal violence.

【Fear value score +100! 】

Along with the prompt sound, the calmness on Princess Lana's face shattered. The creepy smile disappeared and turned into a comfortable fear for Lu Li. Tears even seeped out of her eyes.

Her voice was almost pleading, "Don't... don't do this, please..."

"Really? I didn't hear what I wanted to hear."

Lu Li had a warm smile on his face and did not remove the gravity. "Princess Lana, you don't want Clem to be crushed into a meat pie, do you?"

Princess Lana completely collapsed at the man's undisguised murderous aura and Clem's wailing. "I pledge my loyalty to you! I swear I will never betray you. Please let Clem go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Li released the gravity suppression.

He let go of Princess Lana, and the girl collapsed to the ground helplessly. The continuous change in gravity made her feel nauseous and she almost vomited. Although she tried to hold it in, a lot of saliva flowed out of her mouth. She lay on her side on the ground, trembling.

Lu Li ignored Lana and walked to Clem. While helping him up, he used the Hui Dao and Reversal Spells together, and in an instant, Clem was healed to his original state.

He patted the boy on the shoulder and said, "You are very brave, young man. I admire you. Go and accompany your princess."

Clem's face was filled with confusion, fear, and puzzlement, but after being pushed by Lu Li, he focused his attention on Princess Lana first.

As the drama between the brave man and the princess was being played out in the palace, a mysterious guest arrived at the main gate of the palace.

The visitor was none other than Soruka, who had been invited by the eldest prince with great passion today. She was a combat maid from the Great Tomb of Nazarick and had sneaked into the royal capital for two days.

According to Bone King's original plan, she and Sebastian should have packaged themselves well, entered the upper class of the nobility, and worked their way up step by step.

But the Bone King sent a message, hoping that they could obtain confidential information from the top as soon as possible. Suo Liuxiang simply transformed herself into a "socialite", tried to hug the eldest prince's legs, and accepted the eldest prince's invitation.

At this moment, as soon as she entered the castle, she felt something was wrong because she smelled blood.
