Alien Knights

Chapter 183: Oath of Blood

Todd's anger caused the atmosphere in the entire room to stagnate. Karin's hand holding the dinner plate trembled slightly, and a little soup was spilled on the tabletop.

Rachel put away the smile on his face and looked at the king's eyes, and suddenly an inexplicable sentiment flashed through that expression, which disappeared as soon as it appeared, fast enough to make people think that there was an illusion.

She put on an ordinary expression again, stood up and leaned slightly towards Todd, and apologized: "Your Majesty, if my words make you feel offended, I apologize here, but I didn't mean it."

Todd leaned his back into the chair, waved his hand in a disappointed manner, looked at Rachel's eyes, and took a three-pointer helplessly.

This wise woman said and did this deliberately.

But thanks to her, Todd began to try to interpret himself after his anger subsided.

For most people, traveling to another world, enjoying civilization's rolling over the wilds, grabbing the wealth of the world, enjoying the pleasure of conquering, and satisfying physical needs are an eternal prerequisite.

Todd never considered himself a saint, and never thought about the so-called moral code. When he first arrived in another world, he really thought about pursuing pleasure and indulgence, but after experiencing alien species, churches, colleges, and royal power, he began to gradually think about the meaning of this kind of life.

Compared with the money-supreme civilized world and the collapsed and chaotic Middle Ages, Todd, who has experienced two different societies, faintly feels that there is something invisible in his fate that is pulling him forward. However, he has no way of knowing what the front looks like and where the end point is.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"

Rachel's call brought the king back to his senses.

Todd shook his head, put the complicated thoughts in his head aside for now, and said to the woman in front of him: "Rachel, you are a smart person. You might as well help me analyze the current situation in the Kingdom of Muxi ?"

Rachel glanced at Todd, then cast his gaze to the ground, thought for a long time, and uttered a word: "It's bad."

"Yes, the current Muxi Kingdom looks extremely beautiful, with a powerful army, vast territory, and ample treasury. But in fact, the kingdom is like an egg tied to the edge of a cliff by a string." Todd took the silver fork and gently fiddled with the bread on the dinner plate: "The northern barbarians, the silver ring kingdom, the Holy Acropolis, the Father’s Church, and the southern empire. Our enemies come from all directions. The reason why we are not attacked is because For them, the Muxi Kingdom still has some useful value. Therefore, what I can do is to summon the forces that are willing to come to fight under my command as much as possible..."

Rachel looked at Todd and sighed softly: "Then you don't need to give those scholars the power. What they ask for is a disaster for any kingdom."

"I know." Todd crossed a slice of sorbus and put it in his mouth: "No one in this world knows the power of knowledge better than I do. It can raise a kingdom and destroy a kingdom. So, in When dealing with those academics, I left a way for myself."

"Back?" Rachel tilted his upper body towards Todd, the shape under the robe changed beautifully.

Todd glanced at the woman, slowly chewed and swallowed a small piece of lobster, gently wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, and said: "There is one thing that will be born in the Kingdom of Muxi soon. It has a dazzling coat. , Also has a poisonous heart like a snake and scorpion. If used properly, it will be the shackles that restrict the truth, and it is also a powerful driving force for the kingdom."

Rachel tilted his head and asked, "What the **** is it?"

"Now is not the time to unravel the mystery."

Richel found that Todd had no intention to speak anymore, so he stopped questioning, and instead talked about another matter.

"Your Majesty, do you remember our original covenant?"

Some wonder why the woman brought this up, Todd nodded and said: "I promise to shelter the different races in exchange for the allegiance of the race."

Rachel said again: "After the secularization of the Twilight Knights, you, as the general commander, have become the prince of a country. Have you considered the issue of heirs?

"Heir?" Rachel suddenly talked about another thing. The thinking span was too wide, and Todd couldn't keep up with her thinking for a while.

The woman moved her body and approached the king a few minutes: "You used to be the commander of the Knights of the West, and the covenant only exists between you and me. But now you become the king of the kingdom, one day you will have your own Heir, I must think about the future for the different races."

Todd couldn't laugh or cry: "I'm still young now, it's too early to think about this kind of thing, right? And, don't forget, I am a different species myself."

Rachel didn’t seem to be joking in the slightest: "Your Majesty, you may not understand the meaning of this covenant for the alien species. The Tyrolean Empire is the best example! The alien species who occupy the absolute majority of the seats in the Supreme Council are because of The jealousy and suppression of other factions embarked on the road of fleeing."

"You may have sympathy and friendly thoughts towards the aliens, but what about the queen you will marry in the future? What about your children born in the future? Who can guarantee that they will agree with you?"

Todd squeezed the bridge of his nose with a headache, closed his eyes and said, "Then what should I do? You will be sure of the kingdom's protection of alien species? Promulgate a law?"

"In the face of kingship, the law is just a blank piece of paper." From the corner of Rachel's eyes, he looked at Karin in the corner, who had his head down and his face pale: "Your Majesty, it's very simple. I just hope that On the basis of the original covenant, some small "guarantees" have been added."

Todd stared at the woman's pupils and signaled that he was listening.

"For the sake of different races, we hope to keep a copy of your blood."

Todd's face turned dark, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart: "What do you mean?"

"According to the latest research by Muxi College, the formation of alien species can be divided into three types. The first type of people are originally ordinary people, and they have been exposed to the source of infection in the acquired environment and transformed into alien species; the remaining two species are alien species at birth. , But the difference is that one of them can pass on the supernatural ability to the next generation, and its children are also very likely to be heterogeneous."

Rachel walked to the corner and pulled the shivering Karin away, and said to Todd with the girl's arm: "Your Majesty, I did some investigation. Karin and I are both third-type aliens, so ..."

Todd's temples burst into blue veins, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "So?"

Rachel took a deep breath: "Whether it is a mistress, or *** pleasure. We hope to keep a part of your blood as part of the heterogeneous covenant..."

"Bastard stuff!!!"

The silver plate containing the dishes was thrown out vigorously, the steak fell on the wall, the juice splashed on the carpet, and the originally clean room suddenly became a mess.

Huggins rushed in with the guard. The former breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the king was safe, but the anger that Todd had never seen on his face left the knight at a loss for a while.

Like a furious lion, Todd held the edge of the table tightly with both hands, and activated his "debilitating" ability to make the wooden table black and rotten, and his trembling figure showed that he was on the verge of losing control.

The person involved, Rachel, stood there, without any expression, his calm face was like a deep spring that the spring breeze could not blow away. The splashing soup, like drops of tears, followed the curvature of her cheeks, slowly dripping to the ground.

Huggins looked at Todd, swallowed, and said softly, "Your Majesty..."

Todd took a deep breath and quietly counted to eight according to the method of "anger control" in the previous life. After he calmed down, he said in a deep voice to Huggins and the guards: "Everyone on duty tonight, everyone goes to the barracks. Ten whips inside!"

Regarding his arrogance, Huggins, who knew that the king had already taken a back seat~lightnovelpub.net~, nodded quickly, closed the door with the guards, and left the room quickly.

In a blink of an eye, there were only three people left in the room.

Todd slumped back in his chair, only awkward silence in the air.

After a few minutes, Todd looked at Rachel coldly: "It makes me mad twice in one night, only you can do it."

Rachel's voice was very soft: "Your Majesty, I don't understand why your anger is born. In my opinion, this is something that is beneficial to both of us..."

"Because! No matter when, I have never regarded you as the object of the transaction!" Todd tried to suppress his emotions: "Now, leave my room, before I ignite the third anger!"

Watching Rachel and Karin slowly retreat to the door of the room, Todd asked the last question: "Rachel, answer me, why are you so obsessed with Mussy's shelter?"

The beautiful face of the woman slowly disappeared in the darkness of the corridor: "Your Majesty, you don't understand... Only those who have walked through **** will cherish the beauty of home..." (https://)
