Chapter 219 Confrontation

The palace gate is right in front of them, and the mercenaries around them begin to breathe quickly. This is not the life-and-death struggle with monsters they usually come into contact with, but it is more dangerous. Once the whereabouts are revealed, everyone will face countless angry soldiers coming over.

, there are many strong men at the mercenary level among them. Even with their strength, it is unlikely that they can escape from the encirclement.

They are not afraid of death, but they are nervous, scared, and even excited about their participation in such treasonous actions. Mercenaries are a group of contradictory creatures living in the gap between job transferees and soldiers. They do not have the strength of job transferees.

, but they have to face the same enemies as job transferees. They are stronger than soldiers, but their lives are more fragile. They do not have the unruly strength of job transferees, nor the strong sense of discipline and responsibility of soldiers. The existence of

Contradiction is like that of a rebellious teenager, who is trying every possible means to resist, but is also afraid of actually making a huge mistake.

These dozen mercenaries are all wearing close-fitting leather armor, which is the uniform of patrol soldiers often seen on Lugaoyin Street. Their faces illuminated by the fire show a solemn and ferocious look, making them look more handsome.

A bit like soldiers, as the team approached, the leading mercenaries were finally stopped by the guards at the palace gate. At this time, the organizer stepped forward and said something to the guards. He stood too far away, and I didn’t

Listen clearly, but there is someone next to you who definitely knows, and can even recite their dialogue lines by heart, because she planned all of this.

I couldn't help but turned my head and glanced at her. She was still standing next to me, with her head lowered, letting the firelight reflect from the cloak and hat hanging below her eyelashes. She kept using the little hand connected to me as if she would lose it once she let go.

She clutched my cloak with strength that had lost its way, no, harder than before. Her little body was trembling, and her pale little hands with a slight sheen of sweat conveyed her nervousness and uneasiness at the moment.

Even though she was 100% confident in her plan, she was still just a 15-year-old girl. In the original world, a girl of this age would probably still be secretly flipping through the fashion magazines half hidden in the drawer in class, using

Look at the popular movie stars, beautiful clothes and expensive cosmetics with envy, sigh, be sentimental or have sweet dreams of Prince Charming.

Just when I was stunned, the negotiation was over. The guard guard stepped back a few steps, bowed respectfully and made a sign of "please come in". If he knew what we were going to do now, I wonder if he would

I was so frightened that I ducked my waist. After safely passing this level, the team continued to march in a file, and I felt that the little hands holding the cloak behind them loosened a little.

Everything is about this magical Princess of Three Nothings - please allow me to use the word magical to describe her. Even after Ryan's explanation and her many careful arrangements, I, a college student whose logical thinking has been constantly tempered by exam-oriented education, could not understand it.

I am so confused that I cannot understand its ingenuity at all. To describe it with my poor language, it is probably like thoroughly understanding the complex rules in the palace before taking advantage of them. Even if there is any slight omission in these links,

Our conspicuous presence will be immediately discovered and surrounded, and then hanged on the spot for treason.

Even so, this seemingly dangerous and absurd action was actually supported by the steady Ryan, and he successfully persuaded Prince Aziz, a noble who is obviously greedy for life and afraid of death, to take risks no matter from which angle.

After analysis, there is only one answer, and that is that the layout of Princess Sanwu is so perfect that no one can find any reason to refuse.

Therefore, now we can walk towards the main road leading to Jehain's palace. The palace, which is usually heavily guarded, is extremely quiet at the moment, and you can hear a pin drop. Occasionally, a few patrolling soldiers pass by and see a group of us.

He seemed to take it for granted and even nodded to us in a friendly manner.

But speaking of it, if it can be done to this extent, isn't there an easier way? For example, just send a master to lurk in and make Jie Hain disappear...

It's a pity. Such an approach will definitely be opposed. Because someone with this strength must at least be a job changer. This will easily make others suspect that the Adventurer Alliance is involved. And unless Jehain is killed, just

If he were to disappear, there would be no sufficient reason for Prince Aziz to replace him immediately. This would also result in a leaderless situation and plunge the entire Western Kingdom into turmoil. Combining many factors, there is a way to encourage Prince Aziz to usurp the throne. Although spared

It's a big twist, but it is undoubtedly a safer approach. Not only can it avoid chaos in the kingdom, but the high profile of usurping the throne can also hide the fact that the Adventurer Alliance is involved, making others think that this is just a common dispute between royal families.

It's just fratricide.

"You guys go first, I'll arrange it a little bit."

There was no one around, so I suddenly stopped and said.

"Everything is done."

The organizer nodded to me. The division of labor for this operation is detailed. I am responsible for fighting. It is my freedom to use any method without affecting the plan. They will not interfere, just like I have no interest in interfering with them.

What method will be used to "persuade" Jie Hain to surrender?

After they walked away, I discovered that the little one behind me was still holding on to her cloak from that square to here. She was so accustomed to the existence of this little tail that she didn't even realize that she was there for a while.

by my side.

"Why don't you follow them? Aren't you worried about your father and why we followed them?" I looked at this little tail that couldn't be shaken off with a headache.

"Without you here, no, nothing can be done."

She suddenly raised her head, looked straight at me with her overly beautiful eyes, and said categorically that her face, which was more delicate than milk, looked particularly beautiful in the dark.

Staring at those firm eyes, I suddenly noticed her thoughts - even if I followed her, if those people wanted to break their promise and insist on killing her father, I would not be able to stop it with my own strength. It would be better to do it from the beginning.

If you rely on someone and expect him to do something for you, at least he is more trustworthy.

Ouch. This childish feeling of being trusted is really joyful. Although I don’t have any thoughts about this Sanwu Princess, seeing her wholeheartedly relying on me, it feels like she is being trusted by a special person.

The picky weirdo praised her, and the man's sense of accomplishment instantly overflowed, and he couldn't help but feel an urge to do something for her.

So, I happily caressed her little head, and said honestly and politely: "You little one. You look so stupid, but I didn't expect you to be quite shrewd at the critical moment."

"Puff--" She kept stroking her soft little head, with a satisfied expression on her face. She tilted her head and gently pressed it against my palm, as if to say, touch her for a while longer.

Please touch it gently for a while.

"You like this look very much?" I asked curiously while constantly complying with her silent requests. I rubbed her head carefully with my big hands like praising a puppy.

"Father, it's been a long time since I've been praised like this -" She narrowed her eyes comfortably.

My relationship was pretended to be that of a father. Am I really that old? I was petrified on the spot, and my fragile heart was broken into powder.

"Xiao Wu. After returning to the wild, you must change your mind and become a wolf again. Don't eat unclean meat. Remember to collect your clothes when it rains. The first wolf cub must not give birth to a boy..."

I touched Xiao Wu's head and tried to make a sad farewell gesture. The person involved, Xiao Wu, and Princess Sanwu standing beside me both looked at me in confusion and curiosity.

Forget it, no one would cooperate with me even if I told such a conversation full of complaints. I lowered my head in frustration. It seemed that I couldn't keep up with myself in this era.

After Xiao Wu's figure disappeared into the dense forest, I clapped my hands and said with a confident smile.

"Okay, everything is ready. Now let's see how our Prince Az is progressing."

Jie Hain's palace is located in the northeast corner of the palace. Almost every night, Jie Hain will handle state affairs here until late at night. If he is not too suspicious and too sensitive to adventurers, he can indeed be said to be a commendable person.

Good king.

But at this moment, the palace that should have been quiet was brightly lit and crowded. On the high platform inside the hall, Jie Hain stood high on it, looking down at the rebels below with a calm face. Around him, seven or eight people

A high-level mercenary-level warrior is holding weapons and confronting Prince Aziz's mercenary team. No matter how perfect Princess Sanwu's plan is, it is impossible to mobilize the guards around Jehain. The so-called casualties are inevitable.

This is what is meant.

"Sure enough, it was you. I didn't expect that, my dear cousin, you would be the first person to betray me."

There was such a big commotion, and no soldier except his own bodyguard came forward to protect him. Jehain's expression changed and he said harshly, if eyes could kill, Prince Aziz would have been cut to pieces by a thousand cuts.

"Haha, I can't help it. This position is really attractive. You have been sitting there for so long, so you should change your position. I think you know the current situation better than me. I advise you to surrender obediently and stop doing it.

It’s a pointless struggle, but I can still spare your life as well as your wife, son and daughter.”

Prince Aziz's proud laughter came, what's going on? This kind of bloody lines, which are widely used by cannon fodder-type villains, are too out of style. Can't we have some innovative thinking? I really didn't expect that, I

How dare you cooperate with such a fool.

"Hmph, you damn rebel, you still dare to talk so shamelessly."

A sharp look flashed across Jehein's eyes. He was obviously at a disadvantage, but he didn't feel nervous at all. Those gloomy eyes were full of anger and murderous intent, but there was no trace of panic. He waved his hand and looked

He even plans to take the initiative. What makes him so confident?

"You mercenaries!!"

Prince Aziz pointed at the guards beside Jehain and said.

"Do you still want to support this foolish king? You must be aware of what Jehein has done. If he is allowed to continue like this, within a few years, the entire Western Kingdom will be overwhelmed by the anger of adventurers. As a member of the kingdom,

People, can you bear to see your motherland perish? You must know that as a qualified soldier, what you should defend is not this throne, nor your king, but the entire Western Kingdom. You are now

What you do will only make your relatives, friends, and the people of the entire kingdom cry and be spurned."

Prince Aziz's sonorous and powerful eyes were directed at the mercenaries. You can see that they clearly showed shaken eyes. Being able to become mercenaries can at least prove that they are not slow-minded. The crisis the kingdom is facing now, as mercenaries,

They saw it more clearly than others. They may have complained about Jie Hain's actions. They showed their wavering emotions between loyalty to the emperor and Wei Guo.

"I know Jie Hain is kind to you, and I can understand your current mood. Therefore, you don't need to do anything. As long as you stand on a neutral position and don't help each other, no one will say anything.

You are treasonous, and I will still award you the Medal of Honor after this is over."

Prince Aziz has a very thorough grasp of human nature. When the mercenaries were shaken by the dilemma of being loyal to the emperor and defending the country, he proposed this seemingly neutral compromise, but in fact it had completely pulled them to his side.

"You shouldn't judge a person by his appearance. You have really good taste."

Tsk tsk, this eloquence is almost as good as that of an MLM master. I patted the little one's head again and praised it, and then quietly stepped inside.

"Haha - cousin, your eloquence is really good. Even I am almost convinced by you. But, even if what you said is true, so what, do you think you can really win?"

Jehein had a ferocious look on his face, and after hearing these words, the expressions of the mercenaries around him changed obviously, as if they suddenly remembered something, they clenched the weapons in their hands again.

Weiguo? Before that, at least you have to save your own life. If you can't win, everything will be empty talk. Their unwavering eyes clearly expressed this meaning.

"Dear cousin, let me tell you how stupid you are. I can't wait to see you look like a lost dog, haha——"

Jehain seemed to have seen Prince Aziz kneeling at his feet crying and begging for mercy. He laughed crazily. With that laughter, three figures slowly walked out from behind the screen behind him.
