Chapter 472 Surprise at the Dinner Party
‘She used a trick? ’
Chen Lun guessed secretly.
Because he didn't know the specific information, he couldn't know what Princess Anna had done.
At this time, Anna expressionlessly picked up the exquisite red wine bottle, refilled half the glass for herself, then poured another glass of wine and pushed it in front of Prince Dazlater.
"Happy birthday, brother."
Although she was speaking of congratulations, her tone sounded unusually calm.
"A toast to you."
"Oh thank you, my dear Anna."
Dazlet smiled slightly in surprise and thanked his sister.
He picked up the wine glass that Anna pushed and planned to drink it, and then play with the cross sword in his hand.
However, as soon as the wine glass touched his lips, two figures came over and interrupted the scene.
"Your Highness, on behalf of the Moon Church, I would like to offer you my heartfelt blessings. May the glory be with you forever..."
An old woman wearing a black robe took off her hood, revealing her gray hair. With a calm expression on her wrinkled face, she spoke softly to Dazlet.
This person is none other than Sister Olmedo, the person in charge of the Moon Church in the Royal City.
Chen Lun looked at him with some surprise. To be precise, he looked at the person next to him... That perfect tall figure, paired with a pure white hollow dress, gave people an extremely holy look. feeling.
With a smile on his stunning and familiar face, he looked at Chen Lun.
‘Saint Rutina…’
Chen Lun secretly thought, and at the same time bowed his head slightly to show respect to Him.
Noah had told him before when he returned to the team that his teacher Lutina would come to attend the prince's birthday dinner. However, during the meal just now, Chen Lun did not find Lutina among the guests. He did not expect that the other party had just arrived. .
"Sister Olmedo, thank you for your wishes. With your help, the empire will develop better and better."
The prince carefully placed the cross sword on his knees, raised his head and responded with a smile.
Olmedo nodded slightly, then raised his hand and pointed to the lady in the white dress beside him.
"This is my good friend Lutina Castillo from Coleridge Forest. She has made great achievements in the field of painting. This time she brought a painting to give to His Highness as a birthday gift."
"I have heard of the name of Saint Rutina, and I have also admired the mural "Holy Tree Picture" that praises the Mother Nature. It is indeed a rare treasure in the world..."
The prince smiled and praised.
"Although my father was not happy with the Nature Sect, he admired Saint Rutina's painting skills. At the same time, he also had many regrets. He was unable to let Clarenço paint a portrait for him... Now he can do it with her. I am very happy that a great painter of the same name has given me paintings.”
"Excessive praise, Your Highness."
Rutina smiled.
"This painting has been prepared for a long time, I hope you like it."
He said, turning his head and gesturing behind him. A huge painting covered with red silk was carefully carried in front of the prince by six male waiters.
Such a large formation naturally attracted the attention of the guests present. Everyone looked at the painting curiously, wanting to know what was painted on it.
The painting is about four meters long and two meters wide. A corner of the frame that is accidentally exposed seems to be carved from some kind of rare wood, and the framing is very detailed and luxurious.
At this time, a well-informed guest recognized that the framed wood was the "Shornwood" from Coleridge Forest. This kind of wood is very precious and can hardly be found on the market, except for high-end ones. They can only be seen occasionally at auctions, but the prices are often astronomical.
When the red silk was lifted, Prince Dazlatt, who had an expectant look on his face, narrowed his eyes and his expression suddenly turned cold. Behind him, Chief Steward Babaye’s expression changed drastically, and he immediately screamed:
"How...how dare?! This is blasphemy! It is blasphemy against the Trisur Empire, His Majesty the Sun King, and the great martyr father!"
Chen Lun looked at the giant painting and was also shocked.
I saw a scarlet and dim sky painted on the canvas. The extremely delicate and real brushstrokes painted a depressing atmosphere and a chilling deep fear... And in the central area, a sun hung high. .
But it’s a dark sun!
Under the bright outline like a solar eclipse, countless dark and deep lights drip down. They condense into fluids, falling from the sky like waterfalls, and then merge into a black sea that submerges the world!
What is reflected on the sea is the golden and bright sun.
This dark painting, which was so contrary to normalcy and could even be called weird, immediately attracted the attention of countless guests present. Almost everyone looked at Prince Dazlater with shocked expressions on their faces.
"What does this mean?"
The prince spoke calmly.
"I hope you have a reasonable explanation, Saint Rutina."
Lutina lowered her head slightly, smoothed her hair with her hand and said softly:
"You can understand this as the anger of the Nature Sect, which has been persecuted by the Sun Royal Family for hundreds of thousands of years... I am just a spokesperson, conveying a message to you and the royal family."
He raised his eyes and looked directly at the prince with an extremely calm look.
"Of course, there is another reason why I painted this painting... This was the last wish of my best friend Athena Wolff twelve years ago. She wanted to convey the scene she saw in the revelation of fate. And the oracle of the moon god heard in the dream, told the world.”
Lutina took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"The sun is the culprit that leads to the end of the world!"
His voice was not loud, but it resounded in every corner of the huge banquet hall.
The music had long since stopped.
The palace musicians fell down from their chairs in fear and trembled. The attendants and ordinary stewards felt that the atmosphere had become extremely cold in an instant, and their hands and feet became stiff and numb unconsciously.
The guests were silent, and the scene was dead silent for a while.
Prince Dazlet had a gloomy face, stood up slowly, clutched the cross sword in his hand, and pointed it directly at Rutina.
"You are seeking death, Lutina... Even if I don't kill you, my father will not let you step outside the Tourmaline Kloster."
"Then give it a try."
Lutina raised her white chin slightly and said calmly.
"You are a mortal kid who has only lived for more than twenty years. You talk about killing this and that... This is just an incarnation of me. If you want to kill me, let your father bring all the royal family's 'Yu Guang Sheng' Wei', go to the spiritual world to find my true body.”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Swish swish swish!
Suddenly, five golden light pillars fell out of the air, like each tip of a five-pointed star occupying five directions, tightly surrounding Lutina.
It is the "Yuguang Holy Guard" who is responsible for the personal protection of Prince Dazlet.
According to Princess Anna, they should have gone out on other missions, but they did not expect to return to the banquet room at this time... Chen Lun couldn't help but glance at Princess Anna, who just raised his eyebrows and cast an apologetic look.
At the same time, among the guests, three senior members of the Church of the Sun, wearing white robes with gold patterns, also stepped forward and stopped in front of Olmedo, the old nun of the Church of the Moon.
"Olmedo, I didn't expect you to be so unwise."
The person who spoke was Chen Lun's old acquaintance, Archbishop Terrence.
Olmedo turned a blind eye to Terrence, looked past the three of them, looked directly at Prince Dazlet, and asked expressionlessly:
"Your Highness, are you sure you want to take action against me? The Church of the Moon is one of the few churches among the Seven Gods that supports the royal family... Do you want to push us away with this move? Or in other words, do you want to represent the royal family and the Several churches going to war at the same time?”
"You..."
Prince Dazlet's eyes twitched and veins popped up on his forehead. He suppressed his anger and took a deep breath.
He knew that what Olmedo said made sense to a certain extent, but it was definitely not to that extent. He alone might not be able to represent the entire Moon Church.
"Olmedo! You brought Rutina to me for an affair and deliberately humiliated the Crown Prince on such an occasion. It is disrespectful and contemptuous of the empire and my father. It is also blasphemous to the God we believe in... No matter what, you can’t escape the responsibility!”
The prince said eloquently in an indifferent tone.
The sword in his hand was held straight, and the tip of the sword shone with a cold light.
"As for Rutina, don't worry. After your incarnation is destroyed, I will truthfully report your words to my father. I hope you will still be as arrogant as you are now!"
Dazlet immediately ordered:
"Suppress them both!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Five tall knights in golden armor all made a dull sound from their fully enclosed visors.
With just a loud roar, the Bathing Light Holy Guards and the surrounded Lutina disappeared from everyone's sight. In order to prevent the aftermath from damaging the palace banquet hall, they joined forces to drag the battlefield into the spiritual world.
On the other side, Olmedo offered no resistance and allowed Terrence to use the shackles made of light, and was detained out of the banquet hall by three senior Church of the Sun... It was just that the old nun finally turned around meaningfully. He glanced at Prince Dazlatt.
Things seemed to have come to an end.
Everyone present remained silent, obviously quite shocked by what had just happened. No one could have imagined that such an accident would occur at Prince Dazlet's birthday dinner.
Chen Lun frowned.
He also heard what Lutina said just now. He didn't expect that she and Floy's ancestor Athena were actually good friends. After twelve years, he took the opportunity of conveying a signal of dissatisfaction to the Natural Sect to help his friend. He made a special painting for his last wish and showed it to everyone present.
The identities of the guests are all important figures in the empire. I believe that such news will spread from the royal city soon, and the Sun Royal Family will not be able to stop it... As for what changes will happen in the future, it is still unknown.
‘Does the dark sun in that painting symbolize the Sun God ‘Shen Mother’ who was once killed by the ‘Fierce Father’... What exactly was revealed to Floy’s ancestor Athena at that time? Could it be that he is another person guided by fate? ’
Chen Lun secretly guessed, feeling a little depressed.
Although there was no strong warning from his spiritual intuition, he always felt a little uneasy. Originally, there was a murderous intention hidden in today's dinner. Princess Anna and the Cross of the Sun were looking for an opportunity to murder Prince Dazlet. He just wanted to keep himself and Floy as safe as possible, but things turned out to be complicated, and Her Majesty Lutina intervened, adding another factor. Part variables...
"Brother, don't be angry, our father will punish them."
Princess Anna slowly stood up and handed over the prince's glass of wine.
"Today is your birthday, let the party go on."
"Yeah."
Prince Dazlet held his cross sword and nodded expressionlessly.
When his sister handed him a wine glass, he shook his head and declined.
"I won't drink anymore. I'm in a bad mood."
Ana didn't say much, just silently put the wine glass back on the coffee table.
But Chen Lun once again noticed that the crown on her blond hair flashed with a faint light, and Prince Dazlet changed his mind in the next second. After sighing, he whispered softly:
"Forget it."
Immediately, he picked up the wine glass very naturally and drank it in one gulp.
Princess Anna's eyes were deep, and she actually followed the prince's actions and took a sip of wine.
"Ahem..."
Dazlet suddenly coughed, and Steward Babaye on the side quickly stepped forward, supported him, rubbed his vest with his hands, and asked with concern:
"Your Highness, how are you?"
"Cough cough cough!!"
The prince's eyes widened and his face flushed. His originally handsome and fair face was filled with disbelief. His expression was distorted due to suffocation and pain all over his body, and his veins were exposed.
The wine glass fell weakly and shattered on the ground.
Ping!
All the guests noticed something strange, and some couldn't help but exclaimed.
Prince Dazlet gasped rapidly, blood flowed out from his nostrils first, then his mouth opened wide, and finally his eyes and ears.
He realized something, and used his last bit of strength to point to the broken wine glass on the ground, and then looked at his sister. However... Princess Anna was also bleeding from all her orifices and fell straight to the ground.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Highness the Princess...are all dead!!"
Chief Steward Babaye stood there as if struck by lightning and screamed. (End of chapter)
