Chapter 356 Death of King Berdych
Night falls,
In the civilian area of Huangshi City, darkness gradually enveloped the place, but there was no light in any window.
The surrounding low-rise houses were silent, and countless ordinary people living there had already received the news that Berdych's 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 was quiet and not a single Fez soldier came here, the uneasiness spread uncontrollably during the night.
Tonight, no one in the entire Huangshi City will be able to sleep well.
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 Beavis.
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's it going? 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 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:
"How do you know there is a secret passage here?"
"Of course I have my own methods."
Li Si shook his head and was confused.
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 was one of the secret passages leading to the outside of the Berdych Palace, and Li Si, who knew the plot, knew that King John would 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.
Naturally, Li Si would not give this incompetent His Majesty the King a chance and directly led people to block the road.
It was useless even if he escaped 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 doing intensive exercise in the past few months, is no longer the pitiful, thin and helpless little beggar she was when we first met.
Her little face is rosy and full, and her white face is as cute as a porcelain doll. Her hair is much glossier. Although Helen's persistence in practicing martial arts caused rough calluses to form on her little hands early, it also made her body much stronger. .
Li Si did not hide the matter of interfering with King Bertage from Helen, or in other words, it was for this matter that Helen came here today.
Catching King Berdych was not that important to Li Si. This achievement was more of an icing on the cake, but it was different for Helen.
During this period of time, Helen had been training hard under Li Si's guidance, rain or shine. This was actually much more than what a girl of Helen's age could bear. Li Si was already prepared for Helen to be unable to persist, but she really He gritted his teeth and persisted!
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 sustained during the fight, and the way he was trembling when he killed for the first time but still stood there tenaciously.
After paying attention to Helen's cultivation, Li Si naturally knew the reason why she persisted so much.
That is the hatred towards King Berdych, towards his blood-related father!
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 quickly, 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 golden 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", she always 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 better life that she had never imagined 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 "Father", His Majesty the King of Berdych!
Do you really want 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 she would never have the chance to see him again, but she never expected that the teacher told her today 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 always supported you in vain?"
"And what the hell is this place? I don't even 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 slumped on the ground panting, wiping the sweat that kept coming out of his forehead, but kept cursing in his mouth.
The physical 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 unlike the ignorant king, 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!"
As Li Si said this, he 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 the handsome young man spoke as if he was welcoming them, when he saw his companion lying next to them, a bone-chilling chill ran down from his head.
"Your Majesty the King, go 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 servants with only 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 his mage's hands to pick them all up and throw them aside, and then looked at His Majesty the King in front of him.
Even to 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 had realized that the people in front of him were 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 am Berdych's king, I will give you whatever you want!"
"How about a noble title? As long as you let me go, I will 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 lay on the ground and his body was shaking with fear. The last bit of his fig leaf was torn off by the begging and begging in his mouth.
Decades of indulgence in luxury, pleasure, and idleness have corroded all his ambitions, and he is as humble as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
When Li Si saw this situation, he 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 Yat'an who dared to think and do was far stronger than him.
Apart from his status 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, and 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 greenness and tenderness, 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 so 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.
You need to tell him about his mother, let him understand that today is his retribution, and make him regret the atrocities he committed against his mother in the past.
Beat him up and vent your anger.
Or torture him and let him experience the pain that his mother and he have experienced.
Finally, Helen suddenly realized that none of this made sense.
This bastard was clearly forgetting about his mother.
Also, this man has persecuted and insulted so many people, how come he still thinks of that poor girl from 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 harm 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.
"Um!"
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 lying on the ground.
John Berdych was horrified when he saw the dagger shining 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's mind suddenly recalled a scene that was somewhat similar to the current one. The difference was that the one standing was him, and the one who was afraid of retreating was a young and beautiful woman.
That woman looks very similar to the girl in front of her!
"I know who you are!"
"I am your father, how could you do this!"
"Spare my life, for your mother's sake"
Before he could say anything, Helen stepped forward quickly and slashed across John's neck.
Scarlet blood spurted out like a fountain, and the excess blood spread across the floor.
John held his neck, making a painful "hehe" sound from his mouth, and 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.
"Well done!"
Li Si touched Helen's head and comforted her.
