404 The Ruthless Sophia (2/2)
She did not have the power to kill the Gorse Count and the Glorious Crown, or she would have chosen to kill the two of them as well!
Only when the soul and body were not able to be found anymore could a dead person keep a secret safe!
Beyer was feeling his arms getting rather heavy. In his eyes, Frederick was moving so fast that he had turned into blurry shadows. The prince knew that he had reached his limit.
He knew that he had to go all out.
Looking rather determined, Beyer held his willpower strong. The hanging wings behind his back suddenly stretched out and a radiance started flowing out. The feathers fell, and the wings quickly disappeared. A layer of holy light covered Beyer. Even his green sword, Demon Horn, was dyed milk-white.
”The Anger of Justice!” Sophia burst out.
Only when the blood power, the Angel of Justice, reached the level equivalent to that of a radiant knight, could it exert the ability called Anger of Justice! The Anger of Justice could launch a powerful attack on all evil creatures by improving the knight's power by one level!
But how was this possible? Beyer was not yet a radiant knight!
The holy light flashed past, but it was so bright that the entire hall was lit up.
When the light was gone, Beyer was gasping hard, with the sword in his hands. He had completely lost his blond hair, and the wrinkled scalp was revealed! But he was still standing there!
Frederick took a few steps back and a bloody cut appeared in his face. The cut extended and stretched fast. Frederick's head was almost cut open in half!
Beyer's heart was full of hope. He guessed that his victory had come.
Sophia frowned. She wondered if Frederick had died.
Deniz and Arthen were deeply shocked by Beyer's incredible power, and they had no idea what to do next.
However, the corner of Frederick's lips curled up, even with his head cut open.
The creepy smile made them very nervous and scared. And at this time, the veins that were hiding underneath his skin were now stretching out like countless, scary tentacles!
The alien-looking blood veins quickly reached the corners of the hall and completely covered the gate and the walls.
The several main thick veins went right into the bodies on the floor. Soon, the bodies shrank and became the nutrient for Frederick through the veins.
”Come to me. This is what I deserve!” murmured Fredrick, whose tone was filled with vicious greed. Meanwhile, the deep cut in his head started healing very fast.
”Mon… Monster!” Jocelyn was shocked by the disgusting and horrible scene again.
They had no idea if Frederick should still be regarded as a human being. Was he going to be out of control?
Seeing that the entrance to the secret chamber had not been fully covered by the veins, Sophia, who grabbed Claire, started moving to the secret chamber secretly. She gave Relph a hint, asking him to grab Beaulac and come with her.
Frederick's power had exceeded Sophia's expectation. They could waste their time here no more.
However, when she took a glance at Relph, what she saw greatly surprised her. Beaulac, who was just standing there like a fool, had turned into piles of foams as soon as the veins touched his body.
Foam?
For a second, Sophia was beyond confused. However, when she saw the veins turning into ashes when she reached the secret chamber, she suddenly understood what just happened. She saw an almost transparent figure come out of the air and reveal itself. It was Beaulac!
Sophia realized that Beaulac was, in fact, a sorcerer who used the fake blood power to hide his own identity. He had just sneaked in to find the treasure of Sun King.
Sophia was always aware of the fact that Beaulac was not a fool. He pretended that he was in love with Sophia but had his own plans. However, Sophia did not care. No matter what plan Beaulac had, in Sophia's mind, he was never a threat to her in the presence of Frederick and Sir Metatron. And now she had finally figured out what Beaulac wanted.
”Catch him, Deniz!” cried Sophia.
She also moved. Flapping her six pairs of wings, green wind ropes were summoned surrounding Beaulac. Meanwhile, since Claire had fallen into sleep, another young noble on Sophia's side, whose name was Joseph, had the chance to rush at Beaulac, holding the sword tight in his hands.
However, at this time, Sophia was shocked when she saw her wind ropes being quickly absorbed by a summoned light wall. As the magic symbols in the wall flowed fast, the wind ropes were all gone.
”Douglas' Absorbing Wall?!” Sophia recognized the wall.
At this time, Joseph had arrived in front of Lucien before Deniz's lightning bolts were summoned. In front of Joseph, the young man with clear blue eyes was wearing a mild smile.
Puff… A cluster of black fume directly covered Joseph.
Deniz's eyes suddenly opened big, and out of his astonishment, the summoned lighting bolts attached to his sword had disappeared: he saw that, when the black fume dispersed, there was a pink rabbit on the floor, but Joseph had disappeared.
Rabbit?
Baleful Polymorph!
”You aren't Beaulac?!”
Sophia's face turned pale. For the first time, she was mildly in panic. It was not because of the fact that the fake Beaulac could cast the fourth-circle spell, Douglas' Absorbing Wall, or the fifth-circle spell, Baleful Polymorph; what mattered was how easily the light wall absorbed the wind ropes and ald how he could cast a fifth-circle spell without any effort!
Silence had seized all of the young nobles, except for Frederick, who had turned into a complete monster.
