The Dark King
chapter-620

A gust of wind suddenly blew in the hall, and the curtains fluttered in the wind. Suddenly, a bolt of purple lightning struck the Golden Light, and with a bang, the golden light dissipated, revealing Richelieu’s figure. His face was filled with shock, his shoulders were held by two fair and slender arms, and his fingernail-sharp palms pierced deeply into his gorgeous robe that was inlaid with gold threads, stopping his arms. The strong momentum brought his body back at high speed.

With a bang, Richelieu’s body crashed into the metal pillar at the edge of the bed behind him. The entire pillar instantly caved in, and his back was fiercely pressed against it, completely suppressed.

Roar!

A low roar that was like that of a ferocious beast pounced on him. Richelieu only saw a pair of pure black eyes that were filled with malevolence approaching him with a threatening chill, as if they would be swallowed by an unknown power in the next moment.

“No!”His mind instantly sank into despair. He could only watch in horror. Everything had happened too quickly. He was caught off guard and did not have the time to react.

Ding Dong!

The faint sound of a metal bell could be heard.

The shocking oppressive aura came to an abrupt end and returned to normal. However, only the piercing pain on his shoulder made Richelieu wake up in an instant. His first reaction was to immediately attack, he used his greatest strength to repel the figure in front of him who brought about a terrifying shadow. However, when he raised his arm slightly, he felt an indescribable sharp pain coming from his arm. It was like a cramp, causing him to lose consciousness in an instant.

His raised arm immediately froze. The pain caused his eyes to reveal a trace of unbearable pain. It was not that he could not endure the pain, but the pain on his arm was completely beyond what he could bear, the pain was ten times more intense than the pain of having his arm cut off!

Ding Dong!

The metal bell rang again, but it was different from the previous bell. This time, it shook a few times.

With a whoosh, Richelieu felt a strong wind in front of him. His whole body relaxed, and the pain in his shoulder instantly lessened. At the same time, the mysterious woman who was restraining him also withdrew. The speed at which she left was so fast that he could not see clearly, it seemed that her body temperature had been taken away. He felt an indescribable chill and throb.

When he anxiously looked at her, he saw that the mysterious woman had returned to Dudian’s side. She was like a servant and a close friend. She quietly stood by the side of the youth without making a sound, it seemed that she had been standing there the whole time.

Richelieu’s arm had returned to normal. The strange and twisted pain had returned to normal. He was able to endure it so he didn’t feel any pain. He was shocked as he looked at the youth, the mysterious woman next to him was shocked to the extreme. He didn’t expect that this woman who was silent like a killer would have such terrifying strength!

She had completely suppressed him with just one move!

Moreover… if she didn’t retreat in time, he felt that he might have died.

This was a power that completely surpassed his imagination. Just the most basic speed and strength was enough to make him unable to react and resist!

“President, can we talk about this?”Dudian indifferently looked at him.

Richelieu gradually recovered after hearing Dudian’s words. There was a trace of complicated emotion in his eyes. He wasn’t in a hurry to call for help. The main reason was that he was confident in his own strength, after all, if he couldn’t defeat Dudian, no one in the outer wall would be able to deal with him.

However, the fight just now had crushed all the confidence and confidence in his heart!

“You have such strong power. What is there to talk about?”Richelieu clenched his hands and bitterly said.

Dudian indifferently said: “I am different from you. You are a respectable person. I can give you an equal opportunity to communicate with me.”

Richelieu looked up at the teenager. He saw the calm expression on the teenager’s face. Suddenly he felt an indescribable feeling, “You can defeat me and force me to do whatever you want. Why did you tell me so much?”

Dudian looked at him: “If it was someone else who asked this then it would be understandable. But Pope, isn’t it a bit strange for you to ask this question?”

Richelieu was stunned for a moment. He quickly understood the meaning behind Dudian’s words. He couldn’t help but feel a bit strange: “Do you really want me to be loyal to you?”

“Don’t you want to?”Dudian looked at him, he quietly said: “You can make people convinced by words. The power of words has always been more than a thousand swords. Unfortunately, all verbal communication needs to be based on equality of fists. It is like a theory.”

Cecil’s heart was shocked. He had to say that these words were very reasonable. At least at his age, he couldn’t say such words. The youth’s strength aside, the more frightening thing seemed to be his heart and his wisdom!

“You are really smart.”He was silent for a moment, slowly said: “It seems that we have underestimated you in the past. A person who has strength but only knows how to use strength to convince others is ultimately a boorish man. A person like you who has strength but doesn’t use it easily shows that your understanding of ‘strength’is deeper and farther than ordinary people. If this era is better, you will be able to achieve an extraordinary career!”

He was very serious because these words were his true feelings.

Dudian calmly said: “It’s too good. Since you think highly of me, then it’s time to make your choice. I hope you can make a smart choice.”

Richelieu was silent for a long time: “If I submit to you, do you dare to use me? Aren’t you afraid that I will pretend to surrender and betray you with false information?”

“I have my own methods.”Dudian indifferently replied.

Richelieu deeply looked at dudian. The youth’s confidence made him feel a bit uncertain. At the same time he felt a trace of jealousy and relief. He was jealous of the youth’s wisdom, fortunately, such a person wasn’t born in the same era as him. Otherwise his life as a pope might not be stable.

“I don’t have a choice. I’m willing to be loyal to you as long as you believe in me.”Richelieu narrowed his eyes.

“Very good.”Dudian clapped his hands but there was no smile on his face, he calmly said: “A sensible person is always cute. I will give you the first task. I need you to give the position of Pope to my trusted aides in seven days.”

Richelieu’s heart sank: “You don’t believe me?”

“I do.”Dudian said: “I believe you will listen to me.”

Richelieu was speechless. After a while he said: “I follow your orders. What can I get? After I give up the position, you should get rid of me right?”

“You are looking down on me.”Dudian said: “As long as the people who are loyal to me don’t betray me, they will not be betrayed by me. This is my rule!”! “In addition, if I really want to get the position of Pope, I will be able to get it even if I kill you. I just need to subdue all the elders of the council of elders and let them jointly elect one person. I believe that even if the person chosen is a nameless apprentice, he will be able to step onto the pope’s throne. Moreover, there will be no objection from the civilians.”

“After all, any experience and deeds can be molded. As long as there is a credible person to testify, it is the best evidence, right?”

Richelieu’s face slightly changed. He felt a chill in his heart. He knew that Dudian was right. If the entire council of elders was subjugated, then his existence as the Pope would be equivalent to nothing, moreover with Dudian’s strength it was possible for him to do this but it would be a bit troublesome.

“You will follow me. In the near future when my cause is completed, your position will no longer be just a small pope in the outer wall. Even if you become the dean of the monastery it might not be impossible.”Dudian said, “But before that, I will have to trouble you for a period of time. I hope you can understand and I hope you can cooperate.”

Richelieu’s face changed. He knew that once he took this step, there would be no turning back. His heart couldn’t help but feel sad and lost. Once upon a time, he stood at the highest point and looked down at the civilians and nobles in the outer wall, but now he was forced to become a vassal.

“I know.”Richelieu sighed in his heart. There was a trace of helplessness and vicissitude in his voice.

Dudian said: “You can no longer live here during the period of abdication. I will take you to a new place. All your orders and instructions will be transmitted to the Holy See.”

Richelieu was startled. He understood that Dudian was trying to prevent him from betraying the Holy See. He wanted to cut off his contact with the other members of the Holy See. It was obvious that Dudian had said that he had his own way.

“I know.”He didn’t say anything but agreed.

Dudian nodded: “Now, you are going to leave a written order. The content of the order is that you were attacked by an assassin tonight. You are seriously injured and need to concentrate on recuperating.”

“Encountered an assassin?”Richelieu heard Dudian’s words. He felt that Dudian was bold enough to report his whereabouts. He suddenly noticed the body on the ground. His face slightly changed. The ‘Assassin’that Dudian mentioned was most likely him, in this way, it could also explain the smell and body that he had left behind. At the same time, it would be a foreshadowing for the future..

As he thought of this, he felt a slight throb in his heart, and suddenly he had a feeling that he could not help himself.
