"You're quite ruthless, blowing up the entire palace like that. I don't think anyone has ever done something so grandiose throughout history."

The calmest one in the upgrade was Yabber. After all, she couldn't see her own level increase. And for Oyado, her skill level was greater than her level.

"Well, there are only enemies left inside."

And there are humanoid fighters that are troublesome to fight. It's more convenient to just blow everything up at once. I'm really clever, aren't I?

"Enemies? What about the princess and the prince..."

"Look over there."

I pointed in the direction of Bai Yueguang.

The unconscious princess and her maid, Arianhua, were lying there.

"So... your allies have all been rescued? But what about the prince..."

"You mean the prince..."

I walked quickly towards Arianhua and poked her.

"Miss Arianhua, I know you weren't really unconscious. Come on, tell me how you managed to disguise yourself as the prince."

There was silence from the other side for a while and no response. I thought for a moment, then took out a dagger.

"Since you're not waking up, I'll wake you up another way. But don't worry, I can heal you."

"Alright, alright!"

The other person suddenly jumped up from the ground, still holding the dagger.

"You, on the other hand... how should I put it, you're unexpectedly strong."

"Thanks for the praise. You're no ordinary person either, to fool half of the kingdom... By the way, does the princess know?"

"Well... although she hasn't said anything, I think she knows."

Arianhua smiled and put on a mask.

In an instant, Arianhua flashed, and the prince that we saw last night appeared in front of us.

"So, the country doesn't really have a prince, and the prince is actually the princess's maid?"

Yabber said thoughtfully.

"No, the real prince was killed."

I walked up to the fake prince and said with a smile.

"I don't know how this mask appeared, but it's definitely a very powerful item."

That's right, this mask not only changes the appearance, but also the name and title. Previously, I could at least see through the disguise from the title and name, but now...

"Who gave you this mask?"

"I accidentally stole it from a relic, so I advanced my plan and killed the prince."

"Because he was actually a hypocritical pervert?"

I responded with a smile and then looked at Dale.

"Yesterday, Dale told me that he had met the prince a long time ago, but there were some very different things about him, especially his manners."

Of course, there was also the title.

That's the most crucial point. Although this mask fabricated a title, none of the titles matched what Dale told me.

Changing one's own title completely within just half a year is something I can't do, let alone this prince who can't even tell his own title.

But of course, I couldn't mention the title, so I could only say that his behavior was different.

"Is that so? It seems that the prince and Dale were quite close before. Otherwise, he should have received others with that expression."

"Well... Dale used to be Prince's mentor before."

"I see, that makes sense."

Arianhua smiled and took off her mask.

"So, what are you going to do? Arrest me?"

"Huh? Why would we? We're not that boring. Just keep fighting with us. The task you need to complete is far from over."

I responded with a laugh.

"What?"

Looking at Arianhua's expression, I pointed to the distant palace still covered in dust.

"The king is not dead yet. Our revenge is far from over... Actually, that's not accurate. The king and the necromancer named Henry have long been dead. The remaining... are just undead."

"That's true. There's no life response inside according to the scan."

Ms. Mary played with the palm-sized terminal in her hand while speaking.

Has she already developed a mobile phone? Wow, this is a revolutionary advancement!

"Don't bother looking, it's just a controller that allows me to remotely use some functions of the airship."

Hearing Ms. Mary's response, I could only sigh.

"But the energy response inside is quite strong, although the strongest is still the tower."

Dale's figure came from the airship's broadcast.

"I also had scanning data before. The total energy of the undead you encountered before entering the palace was about 80,000 points, and now, that value has increased to 340,000 points and is still rising."

"Oh my god..."

Is the other side going to use an ion cannon or the Genesis?

"Wait... Oh my god, this is... the defensive magic is activated!"

At the same time, six small flying devices flew out from the top of the airship, surrounding us and the civilians who had just appeared.

And in the next second, an attack warning came from the direction of the palace!

"Arcane·Imperial Palace of the Empire·Ice!"

"Arcane·Curtain of Light!"

"Arcane·Ice Castle!"

Yabber, Ms. Mary, and I simultaneously used defensive magic, constructing a triple defense magic outside the airship.

However, in a flash, our three defense magics were instantly shattered by a black light! After penetrating through our magic, the black light directly struck the defensive enchantment of the airship, and ripples spread out from the point of impact!

"What... what is this?"

Just when I asked, my ring flickered, and a sphere actually came out on its own!

I saw that sphere rolling on the ground for a few laps, then it leaped onto Pure White.

"Oh, hello everyone, I know what that is."

"It's good that you know! What are you doing occupying my spot?!"

Oyado beside me said discontentedly.

The one who appeared... was the toad that I had encountered in the maze of the Death Dungeon. At this moment, it was sitting on Pure White's shoulder with a triumphant look.

Well... if you're going to make an entrance, at least make an entrance. Why are you going to occupy Oyado's spot? Are you looking for death?

But I didn't have time to argue with it.

"Toad-sama of the Death Dungeon, tell us what this is."

"This is the lighthouse of the ancient holy empire. It was absorbed as part of the ruins because it was the only one left after the ancient great war."

"Wait, what about the Holy Empire?"

"Gone, it was annihilated."

This guy seems to be taking it lightly.

"That's not the point! Is there any way to stop him?" Bai Yueguang asked loudly.

"Yes, you managed to defend against it, so that's good, because the lighthouse can only shoot once every 30 seconds."

Just as he finished speaking, the enemy's attack came to an end, and the black light slowly retracted.

"But, it can shoot again every ten minutes."

"Oh my god!"

We all panicked and looked at each other, then said in unison.

"Attack! Destroy it!"
