I Am Louis XIV

  Chapter 106 The City Entry Ceremony of Dunkirk (7)

Just when Prince Condé led a group of people, took the attitude of a master, and greeted Cromwell's messenger, a raven that had been hovering over the city hall for a long time finally swooped down impatiently, before the guards. When looking at the past vigilantly, in another corner, Mary and Vesalius fell into a marigold bush as if they had fallen. Fortunately, the vegetation at this time was still very lush, otherwise they would only be afraid of breaking a few. root bone.

The broom fell apart when it was still about ten feet above the ground. It was the same sentence. Even if they were wizards, they had magic, and after flying at high altitude for such a long time, their limbs would still be stiff and their hands and feet would go numb. They were like A stone statue fell to the ground, Vesalius only felt that his insides were torn apart, but Mary just took a few breaths, poured a bottle of potion into his mouth, and took Vesalius over the window and stepped on Entering the promenade, where Mary simply did not care about the invisible laws of the inner world, she used various spells recklessly along the way, either avoiding, bewildering, or stealthily heading straight to the king's room.

At this moment, a doctor came out of the room and saw that Mary seemed to want to say something, but Mary just waved his hand impatiently and knocked him against the wall. Bontang in the room immediately pulled out vigilantly when he heard the sound. Out of the sword, when he saw Mary, his expression was slightly relaxed, but his hand still didn't move from the sword.

"What do you want to do?" But this calmness was broken when he saw Mary placing, or spilling, or putting in the king's side and mouth. He rushed up to stop Mary, but Mary couldn't move his legs with just a wave of his hand - "Don't get in our way!" Mary screamed.

   "We need to know what it is," or Vesalius explained kindly: "Is it a potion, a curse, or both?"

As he spoke, he poured a bottle of potion into the king's mouth. After a while, Louis moved slightly, but was still in a coma: "It seems," Vesalius examined the king's tongue and the color of his iris: "Yes The last one, both."

   "I think so too," Mary said. "Otherwise they wouldn't have to stab Louis. Vesalius, help me pick up His Majesty, we need to get out of here right away."

   "Wait!" Bontang saw that Vesalius really did that, and couldn't help shouting: "What are you going to do?"

  Mary turned her head abruptly, her pupils shrunk a little like a cat: "We can't save him in the outer world! We must go back to the inner world!"

   "No!" Bontang refused almost without thinking.

Marie just shook her head cruelly, "Let's go!" she said, and then Vesalius gave Bontang a helpless glance and hugged the king, Marie didn't lie, he and Marie's potions, amulets could Delay the king's bad symptoms, but to say recovery, I'm afraid it's impossible in the world.

When Bontang saw this, he shouted, but no one responded. Just when he was about to go mad, a shadow passed by the window. Vesalius only felt his hand light, and the king left his arms. He heard Mary chanting a spell aloud, but the threat of the spell was interrupted by a thin cane.

   The one who took Louis was Prince Vandro, Theoderic.

The weather was gloomy today, but the thick clouds could not completely block the scorching sun. The vampire appeared at this time. Even the prince was inevitably hurt by the sun. His black pointed-collar cloak was slowly drawn from the fire. There was smoke, and his exposed face also had lingering pain and exhaustion. He held Louis in one hand and raised his cane with the other, and the tip of the cane pointed at Mary.

   "Then how do you plan to get His Majesty over the cornerstone?" the prince asked slowly.

   Bontang didn't know what the cornerstone was, but he instinctively sensed a hint of danger...a strong danger.

   "The cornerstone that separates the inner world from the outer world," Theoderic repeated: "What are you going to do with it?"

   "I have my way," Mary said.

"I can probably guess that mortals can't pass the cornerstone, because from the beginning, it was the barrier set up by the wizarding family of the inner world to guard against the church and army of the world. At that time, they suffered a unique blow and destruction, There is resentment in the heart, and the foundation stone is set at all costs - how many wizards' souls and bodies have been forged into the foundation stone bricks? And in the following hundreds of years, such foundation stones have been endlessly strengthened and filling.

Miss Mary, as a member of the Mancini family, you should know, after all, when the Mancini family is dealing with their enemies, or some wizards they hate," said here, Theoderic smiled and watched Taking a look at Vesalius, he saw that he trembled instinctively: "I always like to send them to the court of the upper world, convicted of treason, and then there is an extra stone brick on the cornerstone - their souls will be forever. Being imprisoned here, even if the end of the world comes, he can't move half a step. He can only cry in the stone bricks all day because of pain and emptiness. This kind of torture is enough to make the most tolerant and kind people become vicious and cruel, but based on magic They will never be able to take revenge on their enemies, so every mortal who dares to touch and cross the cornerstone, or an uninvited existence, will become their target of venting and raging. Even if it is, even the soul will be swallowed alive.

It is precisely because of such strict, keen and tireless guards that the secrets of the inner world have never been spied upon by the outer world, but, if you want to say a way, it is not impossible," Prince Fandrao said: "As long as you have concluded a contract with the wizard. Mortals who have a blood-sworn marriage contract, those mortals who can share half of a wizard's ability and half of his life, can be accepted as half a wizard and allowed to enter. This is what you think. "

   Hearing this, Bontang's eyes widened suddenly, he wanted to speak, but as soon as Marie raised his hand, he passed out.

   "That's right," Mary admitted. "I was about to do it."

   "But you should also know that there is no wizard king and no king wizard," Theoderic said.

   "He just needs to be a wizard." Mary said sweetly: "He'll be a good wizard."

"A good wizard like Varo Vesalius?" Theodoric said sarcastically, Mary paused, she looked at Varo subconsciously, and caught a bitter smile that couldn't be concealed in time - Vesalius knew What would Mary do, but he... he may still have some resentment towards the young king, although he knows that as a ruler, the king is tolerant enough... but... on the one hand, he resents and blames his own Incompetent, but sometimes imagined, if there is no Duke... No, he can't believe that he is so naive, there are Mancini parents in the inner world, and of course there will be the Duke of Mortmar in the outer world...

   "He's right," Vesalius said. "He'll hate you, Mary."

   It’s a little bit less, I will continue tomorrow.
