316. Plan
The spade boss pointed at the map and said:
"This is the palace dungeon, the most heavily guarded cell in the city, no, in the country.
"But we can't be sure whether Peloris is being held here. In addition to the palace dungeon, there are a total of four prisons in the city.
"According to my information, Duke Heitian has not appeared in front of everyone since he brought Peloris back, although it is very likely that he was lifting the curse from the Queen.
"But I think it's possible that he's guarding precious prisoners, waiting for us to come.
"Based on the above conditions, I don't think we should break into the prison directly to save people. If the Duke of Spades has broken the curse and recovered from his injuries, then we will just die.
"And Mr. Hevin may arrive here at any time. If he comes, our chance of successful rescue will be greatly increased.
"So I suggested that we start the rescue during the hanging and try to delay the time until Hevin arrives.
"Theoretically speaking, with the speed of a strong man like him, I wouldn't be surprised if he appeared in front of me now. In fact, the fact that he hasn't appeared yet makes me feel a little strange and uneasy."
Hala asked:
"Do you know how strong Hewen is?"
The spade boss shrugged:
"I don't know, but I know that in order to become a king, you have to be at least very strong. This is not something you can just pull in a legend on the road.
"When I was still alive, the number of legends on the surface was much more than it is now. Let's take your country of England as an example. There are more than 20 legends in the Knights alone, not to mention Merlin's wizards, and other legends in different countries.
Powerful people in various fields.
"But I heard from the person who came to Lower Wharton last time that it seems that the legend of the Knights is missing more than half.
"Things are really different. People on the continent once thought that King Arthur would conquer at least half of the continent and establish a great human empire.
"But until we disappeared into the main material plane, King Arthur did not show any desire to conquer."
Hala said:
"Haven hasn't come yet, so he probably won't arrive in time."
The spade boss nodded, he also thought about it.
Hola pointed to the first square on the map where the hangings were carried out:
"So we must prepare for the worst, that is, how we can rescue Peloris if we are the only ones."
The spade boss asked:
"You didn't reach Legend, did you?"
Ha La nodded:
"Hewen once told me about the levels of strength, mortals, legends, demigods, gods, etc. I haven't reached the level of legend yet."
The spade boss was silent for a moment, trying to digest what Ha La said.
He coughed lightly and asked:
"Then how many guys like Earl Lame Wolf can you deal with?"
Hala thought for a moment, then counted her fingers, and then found that she didn't have enough fingers on one hand, so she counted again.
Seeing the changes in Ha La's little finger, the spade boss finally breathed a sigh of relief. The other party finally looked like a child. But does it take that long to count?
Seeing that Ha La was still counting, the spade boss couldn't help but ask:
"How many? Is three okay?"
Ha La nodded and continued to play with her fingers.
The spade boss raised his eyebrows:
"What about five?"
Hala nodded again.
The spade boss's tone was hesitant:
"Ten?"
But Ha La's movements remained unchanged.
The spade boss looked at Ha La with some worry:
"Do you have a cramp in your neck?"
Ha La shook her head this time, and then she put down her palm:
"I can't count them all. If they were all taken together, maybe ten thousand would be fine, but my transformation has a time limit."
The spade boss said seriously:
"Holla, now is not the time to joke."
After thinking for a moment, Ha La asked:
"Mr. Nine of Spades? Have you seen the black cloud in the deserted land?"
The spade boss frowned:
"Are you talking about the incarnation of the Death Wasteland? Now the whole Lower Wharton is talking about that matter. Do you want to say that the appearance of the Death Wasteland incarnation has something to do with you?"
Ha La shook her head:
"No, I mean, that's me."
There was a moment of silence.
The spade boss urged:
"Go on, why don't you say anything anymore? What does that mean to you?"
Ha La looked at the spades boss with big shining eyes.
The innocent look in his eyes that day made him wonder if he had said something wrong.
"I'm done, that big snake is me."
The spade boss took a few steps back and looked at Ha La with suspicious eyes:
"you've been drinking?"
Halla didn't answer his question in words.
Black scales, slender body, and blazing orange snake eyes.
A feathered snake about thirty meters long was floating in this room. Although the room was spacious, the giant snake still could not fully stretch its body.
Exactly the same.
Except for the pair of wings and the difference in size, it is almost exactly the same as the one I saw before.
Hora returned to human form:
"This is the posture that the Serpentis used to have, weaker and more rational."
The spade boss sat directly on the chair, and then took a few deep breaths:
"How long can you stay that way? I mean the bigger one."
Hala said:
"About five minutes, and I still need a little time to get ready."
A trace of disappointment flashed across the Spade boss's face:
"If we only have half an hour, I can guarantee that we will take your friend away unscathed, but five minutes is still not enough. Against ordinary legends, we may be able to escape alive, but against the Clown Queen, it is still too little.
"The power she stole came from the Queen of Hearts, the power of the Queen...
"too strong."
Hala asked:
"Stealing power, can power be stolen like this?"
Boss Krishna said:
"Stealing power is not easy, even if it is the power of a witch, but she still did it. I don't know how she did it. Maybe she has some strange magic, or she has mastered ancient props.
"But what really surprised me was that she actually made the queen let down her guard. I can't understand this, but this guy is definitely not an upstart with empty power, but a terrifying demon who has truly mastered the power of a witch."
The spade boss sighed:
"Although it's only five minutes, five minutes of this level is already very powerful. To be honest, at your age, it's not easy to be able to maintain this for such a long time. After all, you can't have too much magic power in your body.
"
Hala said:
"No magic required."
The spade boss nodded subconsciously, and then his whole body movements paused.
He turned to look at Ha La:
"If you don't use magic power, how do you maintain the state of the Serpent?"
Ha La didn't understand why the spade boss was surprised:
"That's what I became."
The spade boss said:
"Holy shit, you're a shapeshifter! Then why can you only last five minutes?"
Ha La replied with a natural expression:
"Because I would be lost."
The spade boss said doubtfully:
"Lost, what is lost?"
Ha La's voice was very soft:
Chapter completed!
