745 Backstab (3)
The sharp blade was clearly not ordinary. The body of the dignified Golden Duke was comparable to an ordinary Earth-rank artifact.
If his strength was slightly weaker, even if he stood still, ordinary items would not be able to injure him at all.
However, a sword tip was coming out of his chest.
The Golden Duke’s body was easily pierced by this.
!!
Moreover, the sharp blade carried a special power.
It made the Golden Duke’s strength quickly flow away.
The sun above his head became smaller and smaller. In just a few breaths, it was completely extinguished in his hand.
Anduin Gold tried to condense a sun fireball in his palm, but unfortunately, the flames had just ignited when they were extinguished again.
“I want to ask why.”
Being stabbed in the heart by the “trusted” person was the most infuriating thing in the world.
Under the armor, the Golden Duke did not show much anger. Instead, he was surprisingly calm.
The Armored Troll’s neck was agile. It was not a problem to turn 270 degrees in one direction.
Immediately, he turned his head and looked down at the housekeeper who was much shorter than him.
“What do you want to ask, Lord? Why?”
“Why did I betray you?”
“Human Emperor’s successor, you must be joking. You’re not the Golden Duke!”
The corners of Alfred’s mouth curled into a sinister smile. In an instant, he seemed to have become a different person in this body.
He seemed to be extremely confident in this sharp blade. After thinking that the outcome was set, his shocking words exposed the huge secret.
The pupils of the Golden Duke, who had his body pierced by the sharp blade, constricted.
The Fengdu City Lord who had come from afar had actually exposed his identity at some point in time!
He always thought that the enemy was in the open and he was in the dark so he had the advantage.
He did not expect that he would be so naive. In the blink of an eye, he was attacked first.
“No, it’s not just that. If I was Anduin Gold, you would still stab me.”
“Because you’re indeed one of them!”
“Who are you? With such strength, why are you hiding in the Royal Court?”
The Golden Duke was naturally referring to Marquis Yamen, the Prime Minister of the Royal Court, and many others who held powerful forces and were secretly plotting something.
As for how Jiang Li discovered it?
Previously, he had used appraisal to inspect every noble he saw.
He discovered that at least ten of them had rare dual-ability talents.
Moreover, one of the two abilities was always “longevity”.
This strange situation was too ridiculous to say that it was all a coincidence.
Jiang Li naturally had doubts. Under his secret observation, he discovered that there was indeed something wrong with them.
That was why they attacked under the throne room.
However, he did not expect their move to come so quickly.
Moreover, this slash was really ruthless.
“Junior, the severing of the Human Emperor’s bloodline is an irreversible trend of heaven and earth.”
“Those who carry this fate will not have a good ending.”
“If you die here, your path will end.”
Alfred did not answer the Golden Duke’s question.
He twisted the dagger in his hand, and blood rolled out of his chest.
However, Alfred’s nose twitched. He suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He reached out to take a few drops of blood that flowed out of the Golden Duke’s chest and placed them in his mouth to taste. His expression suddenly changed.
There was actually no human smell in the blood!
In front of him was the true Golden Duke.
Where was the successor of the Human Emperor?
