Chapter 256: As Expected, Firing Beam Cannons Is the Most Interesting Thing
At the hotel entrance, Erica, having arranged the transport vehicle, smiled at Su Nian as he walked toward her.
"My Lord, was the dinner to your liking?"
"It was alright. If possible, let's have Chinese food next time."
Su Nian looked Erica up and down; she seemed to be in good spirits.
Has she fully recovered? The Magic of this world is still somewhat impressive.
Not to your taste, huh... Erica responded with a smile.
"Yes."
Su Nian nodded slightly, then glanced at Liliana, whose expression beside him was somewhat unnatural, and stepped into the sedan.
Liliana hesitated for a moment, exchanged a look with Erica, then gritted her teeth and sat down beside Su Nian.
Before closing the door, Erica turned her head to look at the hotel, then asked Su Nian.
"Is Heavenly Lord Athena not accompanying us?"
"She is tired and needs to rest at the hotel for a while."
"Eh?"
Liliana was startled, seemingly puzzled that a Heretic god could actually get tired.
Beside her, Erica spat, sat in the car with a flushed face, and closed the door.
"If you have something to say, just say it. What is with all this hesitation?"
Su Nian looked at Liliana with confusion and said, leaning back against the seat.
Liliana's expression was a bit strange, looking as if she had the worries of a young girl.
She seemed completely absent-minded.
In Su Nian's eyes, Liliana spent three out of every ten seconds looking out the window, completely afraid to meet his gaze directly, and every time her eyes met his, she would quickly look away.
"Is someone coming to find us?"
Su Nian looked at Liliana with an amused expression.
"Or is it that you, Lily, have something you intend to hide from us?"
"My King, I absolutely have nothing to hide from you."
Liliana gripped the hem of her skirt and said to Su Nian with a bright red face.
"It's just... just... I was recalling the knowledge that Teacher Diana taught me last night..."
Liliana said in a very soft voice, the redness on her face spreading even to her earlobes.
Last night, Teacher Diana's earnest teachings were still echoing in her ears.
You must be careful of that fellow Erica; she is much more experienced than you, watch out that she doesn't steal the King's favor from you.
I have some knowledge here that can help you gain the King's favor... blah blah blah...
That night, Liliana grew up a lot.
Only Erica's expression changed slightly, and she hated that Witch Diana even more in her heart.
Really, how could this person pollute our cute Lily.
"It seems you really want to put it into practice~~"
Su Nian said loudly, as if he had realized something.
But when Liliana heard his words, she waved her hands in fear and said apologetically.
"No, absolutely not, how could I dare to do that kind of thing to the King!!"
In that instant, the air inside the entire car fell silent for three seconds.
Slap!
Erica painfully slapped her own forehead.
You win, Lily!!
She truly had not expected that even with such a direct pitch, Liliana could dodge it perfectly.
Even the corners of Su Nian's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
He had truly witnessed the power of a dense girl.
Liliana was also nearly petrified; she seemed to have realized what she had just said.
She now only wanted to slap her own face and strangle the version of herself from a moment ago; why did she have to have such a loose tongue.
Now it was ruined, the great opportunity was gone.
However, at this moment, Su Nian suddenly said.
"Arrange it for me; I am prepared to meet Salvatore Toni."
Liliana, who had just been drowning in regret, had her expression change drastically, and she hurriedly said.
"My King, could this matter be reconsidered?"
"I obey the will of my Lord."
Erica responded, ecstatic.
The scene suddenly became somewhat awkward.
The panic on Liliana's face vanished instantly; she stared at Erica's face and said through gritted teeth.
"Erica, what on earth are you saying!"
Letting Su Nian and the King of Swords meet—what is the difference between that and Mars colliding with Earth?
"Lily, you..."
Erica immediately revealed a helpless expression.
"It is clearly a good thing, why can't you figure that out?"
"A good thing?"
Liliana suddenly wore a blank expression, and then she said with a strange look.
"Fighting an ape is actually a good thing?"
As the words fell, Liliana realized she had spoken wrongly and hurriedly covered her mouth.
"Sorry, I did not mean to disparage Marquis Salvatore Doni."
At this moment, Su Nian and Erica exchanged a glance, and both shrugged their shoulders and said.
"No, in a sense, you are right."
After saying this, Erica shifted her hips, quietly leaned against Su Nian's side, and then said with a smile.
"Lily, you have to know, we two are still Knights of Southern Europe."
"Is there something wrong with that?"
Erica twitched her eyelids and looked at Su Nian; the latter nodded slightly, and only then did he sigh and say.
"So nominally we are still subordinates of the King of Swords, and if a King meets with the King of Swords, this subordinate relationship could..."
"Mm, you understand."
Erica blinked at Liliana.
"You mean!"
Liliana suddenly wore an expression of realization.
Was Su Nian's purpose in arranging a meeting with the King of Swords to take away their subordinate status?
Wait, isn't this the scenario of rescuing imprisoned female knights from the hands of a Demon King who is missing a screw in his head?
Looking at Liliana, whose face was even redder in front of him, Su Nian could not help but chuckle.
After this, he turned his head to look at Erica, who was already pressed against his arm.
The form of address has changed from Marquis to King, huh; this Lioness of Milan, after her pride was broken, is even more sensible than imagined.
And at this time, Su Nian raised his head, feeling the wolf pack glowing with greedy green light around him, and said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that the one who couldn't wait the most would actually be Marquis Vauban."
The cloudless sky suddenly flashed with lightning and rumbled with thunder.
Immediately following, a bolt of lightning struck down from high in the sky, aiming at the car on the highway.
A lion composed of golden thunder appeared in mid-air and blocked the attack.
Immediately after, the dull sound of thunder arrived late.
And at this time, the car that had braked hard also came to a stop.
Su Nian, sitting inside the car, raised his head slightly, his gaze passing through the car roof to look at the sky.
There, a slender, aged figure was looking down at this place.
And at this moment, the figure, having discovered Su Nian's gaze, revealed an incomparably cruel smile.
"Wind, howl."
"Rain, come, turn into sleet, and summon the snow."
"I can summon wind, call rain, and gather thunder. Know that the scorching wind and the freezing wind are both my subordinates. Bring the madness of the gale and raging waves to this earth—!"
For a time, wild winds howled, and heavy rain mixed with hail roared down, accompanied by thunder.
The originally pitch-black sky became even darker and devoid of light at this moment, except for the thunder that flashed by from time to time, illuminating the sky.
Vauban did not care at all that this was Sardinia, a city inhabited by hundreds of thousands of people, and unleashed his Authority without any scruples!
He launched an attack toward Su Nian, who was still in the car.
In an instant, the surrounding screams were endless, adding a few more shades of cruelty to the "dark night" at this time.
"King!"
Erica and Liliana looked at Su Nian in unison, and Su Nian naturally understood what they meant.
After all, they had received orthodox knight education since childhood, inheriting the chivalry and virtues from King Arthur.
What's more, at this time, if they stayed here, they would only cause trouble for Su Nian and make him distracted by protecting them.
It would be better to leave the battlefield directly and go to disperse the crowd.
"Brot, go, go and protect them."
Su Nian waved his hand, and a bighorn sheep composed of indestructible diamond appeared in mid-air.
It manipulated shields formed from countless gemstone crystals, blocking the hail falling from the sky, and emitted a brilliant light that illuminated the dark night.
Only then did Su Nian walk out of the car slowly, one hand in his pocket, looking at Vauban with some helplessness.
"So, I had already tried my best to drive to an uninhabited area, couldn't you have waited a little longer?"
"Sorry, this old man cannot wait to cross blades with the legendary Last King!"
The wild laughter came down from the sky; Godslayers are all existences that are arrogant beyond compare.
When they heard that there was a Last King whose mission was to purge Godslayers, how many could control their emotions and not come over to fight?
They were very curious about what Authority they would obtain if they killed the Last King!
Especially Sasha Dejanstahl Vauban, this Godslayer who has lived for nearly three hundred years.
In his three hundred years of life, besides fighting Heretic gods, there was nothing left that could awaken his long-dormant hot blood.
A few years ago, he even held a ritual to summon a Heretic god to kill for entertainment.
It was just a pity that the kill was stolen by that hotheaded King of Swords.
"Hahaha, come, this old man doesn't care if you are the Last King or a Divine Spirit, your head, I, Marquis Vauban, will take it!"
Amidst the wild laughter, a giant dragon with a pitch-black body poked its head out from the dark clouds and roared loudly.
Su Nian helplessly dug at his ear and said with a tone full of resentment.
"Old man, your voice is so loud, you're bothering me!"
As expected, trying to negotiate with this bunch of battle maniacs is still a bit too difficult.
The Black Prince is still the most sensible; he doesn't cause any unnecessary trouble.
On the contrary, Godslayers like Anton and Vauban are the ones Su Nian finds most troublesome.
Lightning flashed and thunder rolled, dark clouds roared, and the black dragon bellowed.
Su Nian grasped his hand, and pale silver armor and a magnificent Holy Sword appeared on his body and in his hand.
"Roar!!"
A massive dragon breath carrying the scent of death sprayed down toward Su Nian from high above.
Su Nian gripped his Holy Sword with both hands, aiming it at the black dragon in the sky.
He shouted loudly!
"Ex—calibur!"
The golden radiance surged like a torrent, scattering the black dragon's breath and blowing the black dragon away.
To be fair, although it's a bit like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, it's quite satisfying.
As expected, firing a light cannon is the most interesting thing to do.
