"Betting on everything? Witness the result..."

Robin stared at the figure at the door in a daze.

The gentle grandfather who seemed a little submissive before seemed to have suddenly become taller.

His mind saw the decisive expression of Shalom's previous cut off Oga's head.

It is a kind of indifference that puts life aside.

In Shalom's body, there seemed to be a flame burning.

but……

What does witnessing the result mean?

What results are witnessed?

Robin's heart thumped.

A terrible thought emerged in his mind.

Could it be said?

"Salom!"

Robin took a step forward and shouted loudly.

The grand duke of Xiyan leader turned around.

At this moment, Robin completely saw the expression in the other person's eyes.

Cold and lonely.

Robin took a deep breath and tried to calm the turbulence in his chest.

Everyone turned around and looked at the chosen one.

The words slowly spoken from his mouth shocked everyone-

"How far is the army led by Xiyan from Haoyue City?"

"What?!"

Duke Gwen stood up with his cane and supported himself.

Her fingers were trembling slightly.

Aiden widened his eyes and leaned against the chair, unable to say a word.

Lone Moon Knight Roriel looked at Shalom in disbelief, and the expression on his face changed again and again for a moment.

Shalom turned around and smiled sweetly.

"How did you know, Robin, the Chosen?"

...

The sun has completely sunk under the horizon.

At this time, a large shadow appeared outside Haoyue City.

"What is that?..."

Above the city wall, a sentry looked into the distance with some confusion.

In fact, you don’t need to look closely and you can immediately find that it is impossible to be the dark clouds in the sky or the dust blown by the wind.

Among the weeds, the black army seemed too spectacular, like a tide.

But...how did it appear outside Haoyue City?

You must know that any country's army must pass through Xiyan's territory when entering the kingdom, which is the natural barrier in front of Haoyue City.

unless--

"Enemy attack!"

One of the sentries screamed in horror.

...

A faint sound of horns sounded in Haoyue City.

Residents stopped and listened.

The horn whimpered and rang continuously, like a ghost crying.

There are nine long sounds in total.

All residents' faces changed drastically.

That was the highest level of warning in the kingdom, and there were only a few times in the history of the kingdom.

But every time undoubtedly brought serious disasters to the royal city.

And the most recent one—

It was the night of the Blood Moon sixteen years ago, ending with the death of the former king Seviara.

It paused for about ten seconds.

The horn sounded again.

This time, everyone started to take corresponding actions as if they had just woken up from a dream.

People ran around, shouting sounded, and the royal city fell into chaos.

...

In the conference room of the temple, the air fell into a solidification.

Everyone's faces were extremely solemn.

"That's because..." Robin spoke slowly and looked at Shalom with some sadness. "In my impression, Duke Shalom is a gentle person."

Shalom's body trembled slightly, and light flowed in his eyes.

"I have seen the old guards and some old maids in Xiyan Leader. You told me this in an almost begging tone.

Even in front of Jima, you did not show a mother's aggressive side.

So I was a little shocked by your outbreak just now.

But after that, when you say that you bet on everything, I understand a little."

"What?" Shalom's eyes flashed, his chest undulated, and he looked at Robin tightly.

"A person who is used to being bullied will not become accustomed to being oppressed and bullied for a long time."

Robin took a deep breath, and Ji Ye's words echoed in his mind—

If the sky is dark, then survive in the dark; if it is dangerous to make a sound, then stay silent; if you feel powerless, then curl up in the corner of the wall. But don’t be used to darkness and defend darkness; don’t be proud of your own dedication; don’t ridicule those who are braver and enthusiastic than yourself. We can be as humble as dust, and not twisted like maggots.

"Yes, no one is used to being oppressed and bullying, just as no one will always be used to living in the darkness." Robin smiled bitterly, "Unless you never have something called [freedom]. It's like you were born blind."

As he said this, several great masters silently lowered their heads, their eyes fell on the ground and fell into deep thought.

The Lone Moon Knight at the door slowly retracted her scimitar, and Carol also stood the spear to the ground.

Here, in this vacant room, in this unusual quiet night, there was only Robin's voice.

"Like a backlog of volcanoes, there will always be an eruption. I don't know what forced you to become like this, but I know that when you cut off Oja's head, the volcano had already erupted.

And this is not a sign, it is just the first victim in the eruption."

Robin exhaled, Shalom's mood was probably similar to that of--

Anyway, I have already made my promise, so it is natural to find someone to take care of me before dying.

"I originally thought it was just a moment of impulse, but when you said you were betting on everything, I realized that it might not be that simple.

What if the bet on everything that the Grand Duke Xiyan said was really betting on everything?

If what happened today was not accidental, it was not a moment of impulse to be cut off, but in your careful planning?

Then that makes sense."

Robin raised his eyes and looked straight at Shalom, "The army led by Xiyan is at the city, but it is the Grand Duke closest to Haoyue City. This is the most terrifying enemy attack, which comes from betrayal within the kingdom.

It’s not that Oka alone wants to control the future of the kingdom. It’s obvious that Grand Duke Shalom of Xiyan’s leader, you have endured for many years and planned for many years today.”

It was at this moment that a terrible light flashed through Robin's brain.

"So, the vanguard of the King of the Chinese Guard in Haoyue City, your child, Knight Jima, is probably also an important part of it?"

On the surface, the mother and daughter were incompatible, so they let their daughter serve as the king's personal guard and gain the trust of the king and further paralyzed everyone, just to meet outside tonight.

A chill surged from Robin's feet to his forehead, and he felt his whole body cold.

"Tonight, Haoyue City is about to usher in the most difficult night in history. The army led by Xiyan and the betrayal of the king's personal guards... bet on everything, either becoming a king or a death, right? Dad Shalom?"

This sentence was like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone hard, and everyone was shocked.

It was at this moment that the sound of horns came from outside.
