Chapter 356 The Death of King Berdych
Night falls,
Darkness gradually envelopes the civilian area of Huangshi City, but not a single window lights up.
The surrounding low-rise houses were silent. Countless ordinary people living there had received the news that the Berdych army had been completely defeated by the Fez army and that Huangshi City had fallen.
It is for this reason that everyone is hiding at home and carefully observing what is going on outside through the cracks in the windows.
In the hearts of these civilians, those Berdych soldiers were as hateful and tyrannical as demons, so how terrifying would it be for the Fez army to defeat them?
Although this civilian area is quiet and no Fez soldiers have come here, the uneasiness is spreading uncontrollably at night.
No one in the entire Huangshi City will be able to sleep well tonight.
Hidden among the low-rise houses, there is a seemingly ordinary cabin. The mottled walls look like they have experienced years of rain, snow, wind and frost, and are crumbling.
But something special is that this hut has a small courtyard enclosed by a one-person-high wall, which makes this hut a certain distance from the surrounding houses, and the movement inside is almost unnoticeable by the surroundings.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the door of this small house, gently opened the door and walked in.
The person who appeared was Li Si, who had just arrived from Bevis.
Walking into the hut, what is strange is that there is no furniture in this room, it is empty, and there is a thick layer of dust on the ground.
Looking at the two strong men lying in the middle of the house, Li Si said to Helen and Bazel who were standing aside:
"How are you doing? Is there any movement?"
Helen, who was wearing a light brown leather armor, shook her head, then fell silent again, looking a little excited.
Bazel replied:
"We have been waiting here for a day. Just now, two people suddenly came out of the underground secret door and I knocked them down."
"It seems that you are right, this is indeed the exit of the secret passage of Berdych Palace."
After a pause, Bazel looked at Li Si curiously and asked:< br>
"How do you know there is a secret passage here?"
"Of course I have my own method."
Li Si shook his head and got fooled.
Before today's decisive battle, Li Si, who had roughly predicted the outcome, asked Helen and Bazel to stay here, waiting for King Berdych to come to his door automatically.
This small room is one of the secret passages leading to the outside of Berdych Palace, and Li Si, who knows the plot direction, knows that King John will escape from Huangshi City from here.
During the pursuit mission in his previous life, His Majesty the King was very good at running. Relying on the background of the Berdych royal family and a small number of people who were still loyal, he wandered around the Berdych Kingdom and was not caught until several months later.
Li Si naturally would not give this incompetent His Majesty the King a chance and directly brought people to block the road.
It would be useless to escape through other secret passages, Li Si had naturally taken precautions.
Today, King Berdych cannot escape!
After touching Helen's head, Li Si looked at Helen's tight little face.
Helen, who has been supplementing her nutrition and exercising intensively in the past few months, is no longer the pitiful, thin and helpless little beggar she was when we first met.
The little face is rosy and full, and the white is as cute as a porcelain doll. Her hair is much shiny. Although Helen’s persistence in practicing martial arts caused rough calluses to form on her little hands early, it also made her My body is much stronger.
Lis did not hide the matter of blocking King Berdych from Helen, or in other words, it was for this matter that Helen came here today.
Capturing King Berdych was not that important to Li Si. This credit was more of an icing on the cake, but it was different for Helen.
During this period of time, Helen has been training hard under Li Si's guidance, rain or shine. This is actually much more than what a girl of Helen's age can bear. Li Si is already prepared for what Helen can't endure. She was ready, but she really gritted her teeth and persevered!
At the age when she was still acting coquettishly in her parents' arms, she was holding a heavy sword and trembling in the scorching sun. Helen suffered a lot.
Not to mention the injuries he suffered in the fight, and the way he was shaking but still standing there tenaciously when he killed someone for the first time.
While paying attention to Helen's cultivation, Li Si naturally knew why she persisted so much.
That is the hatred for King Berdych and his father who is related by blood!
This belief supported her to persevere, and the same hatred became stronger and stronger in the pain.
Li Si knew very well that although hatred can make a person overcome all difficulties and grow rapidly, people who have been immersed in hatred for a long time will become extreme and stubborn.
Li Si did not hope that Helen would become like that.
Although Helen will become one of the pirate kings and a top gold powerhouse in the future, Li Si feels that Helen can do more.
What's more, King Berdych is not far from death, and Li Si doesn't want Helen to leave such a lifelong regret.
After getting over this hatred and finding a new goal, Helen can become stronger, which is also a good thing for her future.
Feeling the warm big hands on her head, Helen did not resist, but leaned against Li Si, holding the hem of Li Si's clothes tightly with her small hands.
When Helen learned from her teacher today that she was going to meet her "Father," Helen felt a little confused.
Helen did not have the slightest fondness for this "father", but was instead wrapped in memories of pain and hatred.
Recalling that in order to protect herself, her mother lived a humble life amidst various compromises, whether in the Berdych Palace or on the way to escape.
But her mother still protected her very well.
Whenever she thought of her mother's love and warmth, and the skinny hands that held her with all her strength when she died, Helen couldn't calm down in her heart.
Even after meeting her teacher and living a wonderful life that she could not even imagine in the past, Helen would still be awakened by nightmares from time to time.
The main culprit for the pain of his mother and himself is "King Father", His Majesty the King of Berdych!
Are you really going to see him?
Is it so easy?
Helen was a little overwhelmed when she thought of this.
After all, in her previous experience, the steward of the caravan was a big shot to her and her mother, not to mention the king of Berdych.
Helen once thought that she would never have a chance to see him again, but she never expected that today the teacher told her that she would come to meet and even catch the king.
Will His Majesty, the once supreme king of the Berdych Kingdom, fall into the hands of the teacher so easily?
Helen was a little confused, but being by Li Si’s side, she felt that the teacher could definitely do it!
Li Si and the other three waited quietly in the dark cabin.
At this moment, the two wooden boards on the ground were suddenly pushed away from below, and a resentful voice sounded.
“Damn guys, how dare you let me go such a long way!”
“Have I supported you all in vain?”
“And this , what the hell is this place? I don’t know how to get a light!”
A figure as fat as a ball climbed up with difficulty with the help of people below.
After coming up, he collapsed on the ground panting, wiping the sweat that kept coming out of his forehead, but he kept cursing in his mouth.
The appearance features were so obvious that Li Si recognized him at a glance as King Berdych, John Berdych.
The followers who were following the king quickly jumped up, but they were different from the ignorant king, and they quickly discovered something was wrong.
They had arranged for two companions to come over in advance. Even if they did not light candles for concealment, why was there no sound at all.
Just when they were on guard, a calm voice sounded in the room.
"Welcome, Your Majesty John, we have been waiting for a long time!"
Li Si said this and lightly snapped his fingers with his right hand. Zero Ring Trick [Light Technique]!
The sudden appearance of light made the king and others uncomfortable, and they couldn't help but close their eyes. It took a while before they felt relieved.
When they opened their eyes, they found three strange people standing in the room.
A very handsome young man was looking at them with a smile.
He was holding a cute little girl in his hand, and behind him stood a man with a melancholy face, who seemed to be the entourage of the two.
Although what this handsome young man said seemed to welcome them, when he saw his companion lying next to them, a bone-chilling chill went down from the top of his head.
"Your Majesty, leave quickly!"
Before he had time to think about anything, the loyal attendants stopped in front of John Berdych, took out their weapons and were about to attack Li Si.
“You are too noisy!”
Li Si waved his hand, and a pale white light flashed instantly.
Sixth Ring Spell [Group Human Immobilization Technique]!
Maybe this is the current Berdych royal family. The only ones following His Majesty the King are these attendants who only have silver strength.
Under the influence of Li Si's spell, they all froze in place and were unable to resist, looking frightened and desperate.
Li Si used the hands of the mage to pick them up and throw them aside, and then looked at His Majesty the King in front of him.
Even at the point of escaping from the palace, John Berdych was still wearing a gorgeous and expensive golden dress, but when he passed through the secret passage, it was inevitably covered with mud and dust, mixed with sweat, and he looked extremely embarrassed. .
He has realized that the people in front of him are enemies rather than friends. The arrogance he had just now completely disappeared without a trace, and his fat body kept shaking.
"You. Who are you?"
"Let me go. I'm the king of Berdych. I'll give you whatever you want!"
"How about a noble title? Just let me go and I'll make you a duke!"
>
When he realized that he was in real danger, King Berdych didn't have the aura of a king at all. He fell to the ground and his body was shaking with fear. The begging and begging in his mouth tore off the last bit of his fig leaf. .
Decades of indulgence in luxury and enjoyment, and a life of idleness and indolence have corroded all his ambitions, and he is as humble as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Seeing this situation, Li Si suddenly lost any desire to talk to the king.
Compared with the talented King Morton of the Kingdom of Fes, he is as good as heaven and earth.
Even Prince Atian who dared to think and do was far stronger than him.
Except for his identity as King Berdych, there is nothing worth mentioning about him.
Shaking his head, Li Si touched Helen's head and said with a smile:
"Helen, do you have anything to say?"
Feeling Li Si's encouragement, Helen's delicate little face flashed with determination. She let go of Li Si's clothes and took a few steps forward, standing in front of John Berdych.
“Do you recognize me?”
Helen’s voice rang in John’s ears. He carefully raised his head and looked at the little girl in front of him.
The delicate and cute white face has a somewhat determined expression, and the body that has just begun to grow still retains a bit of youthfulness, wrapped in close-fitting leather armor.
If John had seen such a cute little girl before, he would have ordered his attendants to take her back to the palace and pamper her to vent his animal desires.
But now, under the suppression of Li Si's terrifying power, he no longer has the slightest thought in this regard.
Looking at Helen's appearance, John Berdych felt a sense of familiarity, but he couldn't remember who it was.
He has seen too many women. Who knows who the little girl in front of him is related to.
"Miss, have we met before?"
John said cautiously, his expression full of pleading.
"You"
Helen was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
While waiting to meet this "father", Helen had a lot on her mind.
I want to tell him about his mother, let him understand that today is his retribution, and make him regret the atrocities against his mother in the past.
Beat him and vent your anger.
Or torture him and let him experience the pain that his mother and he have experienced.
In the end, Helen suddenly realized that all of this was meaningless.
This bastard has obviously completely forgotten his mother's existence.
That’s right, this man has persecuted and insulted so many people, how could he still think of that poor girl more than ten years ago?
Helen gritted her teeth, suddenly not wanting to tell him about her mother.
Come to think of it, my mother doesn't want her name to appear in this man's mouth again!
The imaginary behavior of this king crying bitterly and humbly begging for mercy cannot completely erase the hurt he caused to his mother.
When Helen became more and more excited, a warm big hand rubbed her head, and Teacher Li Si's voice came to her ears.
“It’s okay, Helen!”
“Just do whatever you want, I’m right behind you!”
Helen pursed her lips, the gloom in her heart dissipated a little, and nodded seriously.
“Yeah!”
It’s time to make a decision with the past. The teacher doesn’t want me to be immersed in hatred all the time!
Helen no longer hesitated, took out a sharp dagger, and slowly walked towards King John who was slumped on the ground.
John Berdych was horrified when he saw the dagger flashing with cold light in Helen's hand. His fat ass dragged the expensive dress back and forth.
"Don't be like this, I'll give you whatever you want!"
"Spare my life, my life is very valuable!"
At this moment, John suddenly recalled Let's play a scene that is somewhat similar to the current one. The difference is that the one standing is him, and the one who is afraid of retreating is a young and beautiful woman.
The woman looks very similar to the girl in front of me!
“I know who you are!”
"I am your father, how could you do this!"
"Spare my life, for the sake of your mother"
Before he could say anything, Helen quickly He stepped forward on the ground, and the sharp edge slashed across John's neck.
Scarlet blood spurted out like a fountain, and the excess blood spread on the floor.
John covered his neck and made a painful "hehe" sound from his mouth. His whole body was shaking like a fat pig that had been slaughtered and bled.
After struggling for a long time, King Berdych could no longer breathe.
"Good job!"
Li Si touched Helen's head and comforted her.
