Chapter 481(1/3)
The fire in the Blade Fang camp has become smaller, but the black smoke still continues.
The subordinates of Legend Wing stood in formation and looked at the group of gobbling prisoners around them with confusion, while the mercenaries stood cautiously further away.
"what happens?"
Tardin stuffed a piece of dry food into his mouth desperately, not even thinking about drinking water:
"Is this... a farewell meal?"
As he ate, he glanced down at the sand dunes in the distance:
There were three figures, two large and one small.
The first two stood very stiffly, while the smaller figure sat cross-legged on the ground, also devouring food.
Taldin beside him shook his head and continued to eat hard.
"Does it matter?"
Little Barney grabbed a piece of hard bread and looked thoughtfully:
"I can't think of anything worse than today."
Sak'el sat far away from them. He chewed the dried meat in his mouth and stared at the three people in the distance.
"If I want to...enter...the prison of bones..."
Kuai Rope on the side was enjoying the meal while bursting into tears:
"At least don't leave it, wuwu... Can I take a bite of your dried meat, thank you... wu, I mean don't leave it... grass, it's not delicious... I won't leave any regrets, wuwu..."
His sincere cry made everyone frown.
At this moment, little Barney put down the bread in his hand and spoke quietly.
"Why did you come back?"
Everyone in the royal guard froze, leaving Kuai Sheng alone.
Little Barney raised his head and looked at the Punishment Knight.
"You don't think that if we kill a few people together, we can go back to the past, right?"
The vanguard officer’s eyes were burning:
"Do you think everything can still be the same as before? Brotherhood? Comrades?"
Belletti patted Barney Jr. on the shoulder in embarrassment.
The latter snorted coldly.
Sak'el didn't speak. He just stared into the distance without moving. The wounds on his face and shoulders were clearly visible.
"So what do you do," Barney said sarcastically:
"Still thinking about killing the prince?"
The punishment knight trembled slightly.
"And you are still not prepared to tell us anything, even though we already know his secret?"
Belletti on the side sighed and advised:
"Barney."
Sak'el was silent, and everyone in the guard was also silent.
Only Kuai Sheng swallowed his own food heartlessly. When he secretly reached out to the food of the person next to him, Tardin beat him back.
"Barney," finally, the punishment knight raised his head, his eyes dazed:
"Stop asking."
Little Barney was startled, then gritted his teeth:
"You bastard..."
But he was interrupted.
"You know, there was once a disaster in this world. It was invisible, but endless because it lived in everyone's thoughts."
At that moment, everyone, including Kuai Rope, was stunned.
"As wise as Prince Tormund, as brave as the hero Nekaru, they are powerless against it."
The punishment knight looked into the void, with an unmistakable coldness in his tone:
"Some things... the fewer people know about them."
"The Kingdom of Stars is safer."
His voice fell.
Leaving a long lasting silence.
and endless wind and sand.
However, in the distance, the three people under the sand dunes were far from such an atmosphere.
When Thales painstakingly tore open the fifth piece of dried meat, he could even feel the sharp coldness emitting from the two pairs of eyes above his head.
He was forced to swallow it in two mouthfuls with water.
The prince wiped his mouth with his sleeve without any image. On the way, he touched the swollen part that was hit by the fast rope, and he couldn't help but show his teeth.
Legend Wing and the mercenary leader stood in front of him and watched him eat, one with his hands behind his back and the other with his arms folded.
The two looked at each other, their eyes becoming more and more impatient.
Thales burped, and before being torn into pieces by the two people's gazes, he finally spoke:
"key."
This word stunned both Roman and Ricky.
"What?" Ricky asked confused.
Thales' next words made Ricky's expression change:
"The key that opens the prison and even the exit."
"If I remember correctly, you told the driller before that you just happened to find another key outside the camp?"
The prince noticed the gradual changes in the faces of the two people:
"But you told me that fate is a bigger prison, and you have, perhaps the only key to open the prison..."
Thales narrowed his eyes and pointed at Legend Wing, whose expression became increasingly ugly:
"I can't help but wonder: What if there is really only one 'key'?"
At that moment, it was as if someone had knocked a heavy hammer into the air.
Ricky's brows furrowed severely.
Legend Wings stood motionless.
Thales burped again:
"Oh, I ate too much. Sorry. Then I followed this clue and worked backwards to recall everything that happened."
The young man's fingers slowly moved, pointing towards the exit of the Bone Prison that had already been closed.
Thales's eyes lit up;
"Guess what? All the strange things were connected one by one."
The prince smiled and his tone was somewhat relaxed and dramatic, but it was obvious that the other two had no sense of humor.
They just stared at Thales coldly.
It was obvious that he was in a very bad mood.
Thales glanced around, awkwardly retracted his unappreciated smile, and gave a dry hey.
"Ricky, after you got out of prison, you were not in a hurry to escape, but you were still leisurely waiting for the so-called 'opportunity'?"
The mercenary leader's face became worse and worse.
"And Williams, who was supposed to be searching for me in the desert with the light cavalry, appeared here at the right time?"
The legendary wings in front of him became increasingly gloomy.
But Thales kept up his efforts, hitting the two of them sentence after sentence:
"After Williams appeared, he didn't even care about my existence. He just asked you vaguely but eagerly how the 'mission' went? What was the 'accident'?"
The young man looked at Ricky again with a smug look on his face:
"In front of the overwhelming cavalry army, you unconsciously used me as a 'hostage' bargaining chip, which was not in your hands at all, and arrogantly threatened the famous Legend Wings. Maybe because you were not threatening him, but threatening your employer.
Hand over the task?"
Thales took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes:
To be continued...
