#198 - Chapter 198 Despair and Luck
“Oh my god, this....”
When Chancellor Arnold removed his clothing, a body from the abyss appeared before these Hilling Guards.
At this moment, below Arnold's normally faced neck, was a terrifying body formed from countless tentacles and teeth!
As the clothes were removed, these tentacles began to slowly disperse, no longer forming the shape of a Hilling person according to Arnold's will.
And everyone could feel that these tentacles, covered with sharp teeth, were emitting extremely strong vitality.
They were like metal springs, constantly compressing life and power into this body.
With the blessing of these tentacles, Arnold's vitality, which was already close to death, was even more vigorous than before!
Even more terrifying was that the group of Royal Guards, and the "Arnold" that the Hilling King had seen before, was just a "mask" made up of countless tiny tentacles covering his original head.
Arnold's real head was now growing in Arnold's abdomen.
A distorted, hideous face hidden among countless tiny tentacles!
“Your Majesty, after becoming a Fallen and obtaining the corresponding gift from the Envoy, my strength has grown more than tenfold!”
“If I want to, I can kill anyone present at any time.”
Hearing Arnold say this, the guards immediately grew the sharp blades in their hands from their arms again.
Because they heard a blatant threat from the mouth of this "old man".
“Is that so? That's great.”
But the Hilling King was as calm as ever.
He stepped forward to stop the guards' reckless behavior of wanting to kill Arnold, but instead laughed happily.
“If this is true, then it means that the potential of us Hilling people can still be improved.”
“Yes, Your Majesty, the potential of us Hilling people can indeed continue to be improved.”
“But unfortunately, it's too late.”
Arnold seemed a little sad. Although he had obtained the power he wanted, his heart was still loyal to the King and the Hilling Kingdom.
“Our kingdom is about to be destroyed.”
“Either destroyed by the hands of the undead, or enslaved by the will of the abyss, becoming a plaything of the Envoy.”
Chancellor Arnold spoke a cruel truth.
“Although the Envoy, who represents the will of the abyss, has brought us Hilling people biological technology far beyond imagination, the problem is that we have to pay the price of our souls for it!”
“Because I know very well that after I joined the Abyss Cult, my desires, the darkest, most profound desires in my heart, are growing every moment!”
“Driven by such desires, I crave to become stronger and even more bloodthirsty!”
“Now I can still maintain my sanity with the energy accumulated over the long years, but more Fallen have completely turned into bloodthirsty monsters!”
“Driven by desire, they have long lost their minds.”
“They are willing to kill their relatives and friends in order to obtain more divine grace from the Envoy!”
“And the most cruel and ruthless of them is your beloved little grandson.”
“In order to please the Envoy, he killed tens of thousands of Hilling civilians in one go by relying on his power beyond your control.”
“In this case, he himself has been personally received by the Envoy, and the other party promised that after the Hilling Empire is completely destroyed, he will be transformed into the existence of a [Fallen Chosen].”
“All that we have done is nominally gaining power, but in reality....”
“We have become genuine Fallen!”
“Because we sold our souls to the abyss.”
Hearing Arnold's repeated complaints, the Hilling King on the throne was not angry, nor sad, nor angry.
“Arnold, are you confused?”
“Stop complaining.”
“As the smartest of the kingdom, shouldn't you have guessed the fate of our Hilling Kingdom long ago?”
“From the moment the undead invaded, the Hilling Kingdom was destined to be destroyed.”
“It's just a matter of time.”
“If it weren't for the existence of that Abyss Cult intervening, maybe we would have turned into withered bones under the iron hooves of the undead long ago, or worse, turned into undead who couldn't even rest in peace!”
“At least now we have another choice, a choice that is a little better than the worst.”
“Yes, Your Majesty, you are right.”
Arnold cooperated with the Hilling King and said.
“So, what should we do now?”
“Your Majesty, as a wise king, you still have quite a few of your personal guards who are willing to fight for you.”
“If they fight to the death, you may still be able to escape the royal city and go to other cities that have not yet fallen...”
Faced with Arnold's proposal, the Hilling King walked down the throne and came to the edge of the palace.
“No need.”
“Arnold, my loyal Chancellor.”
“Let those personal guards fall with you.”
The Hilling King's words stunned Arnold.
“As for me, I'm worthless.”
“Instead of letting me watch the kingdom I have guarded for hundreds of years be destroyed in my hands, I might as well die directly.”
In the next second, the Hilling King jumped down from the palace in Arnold's painful cry.
Thump!
The Hilling King's body slammed into the bottom of the palace.
His blood, like a scarlet carpet, was evenly spread on the ground.
And in the next second, a pair of white feet stepped on this "carpet", gracefully walking towards the interior of the palace.
The Fallen Angel Liz had arrived at the palace of the Hilling Empire.
And following behind her were nearly endless Fallen Hilling people.
“Tch... what a pity.”
“I didn't see your despairing expression with my own eyes.”
Liz glanced at the Hilling King's remains under her feet and said.
“But this is also a lucky thing for you.”
“Because you will never imagine what I will do to your people!”
A crazy plan that originated from the Abyss Master had just begun!
This crazy plan will completely change everything about the Hilling people.
