Seeing that Aniya was unmoved, Prince Shadow Leopard could only find a breakthrough in other ways: "As long as you escort me back to the country, I am willing to pay you five thousand gold coins as a reward, how about it?"
"No need." Aniya shook her head, "You should think about how to explain to your father when you return."
Prince Shadow Leopard left in disappointment. He did not expect that Count Ania was so incompetent, and no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be of no avail.
Looking at his back, Aniya muttered: "This coward was so frightened that he really disgraced the royal family. It's in vain that I thought so highly of him before."
Prince Shadow Leopard returned to his tent, curled up in the blanket, and covered his head, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
He stared closely at all the shadows around him, fearing that someone would suddenly emerge from them.
Just like that, an hour passed, and two hours passed, and he still couldn't fall asleep.
"Are you waiting for me?" A hearty laughter sounded in his ears. Prince Shadow Leopard had a clever idea and jumped up. Then he felt a chill in his body and couldn't move.
Chris said jokingly: "You are really easy for me to find."
Based on the map and the movement trajectory of the army, it took him several hours to get here.
Then he searched through thousands of tents one by one and finally found this prince.
Prince Shadow Leopard felt a deep chill in his heart, and his brain began to work rapidly as he began to think of countermeasures.
Although the body cannot move, the mouth can still speak.
Prince Shadow Leopard said quickly: "Listen to me, with your talent, your future will be limitless. You have also seen that I am very smart. Why don't we two cooperate, use my talent and your strength, and together we will
Isn’t it much better to conquer this continent than to huddle in a tiny place like the Eagle Kingdom?”
Chris asked back: "You don't seem to be the eldest son, right?"
If the other party is the eldest prince of the Shadow Leopard Kingdom, he will never be sent to participate in the pioneering order.
"Since you can't inherit the throne, why do you dare to touch me?"
Prince Shadow Leopard said: "I have planned everything secretly. I will usurp the throne before my father dies and let him take the initiative to give up the throne to me."
Chris lowered his head and pondered. With this guy's character, this sentence is very credible.
He is indeed very talented and capable and will never succumb to others.
Seeing that Chris was a little interested, Prince Shadow Leopard continued his temptation: "I will start an uprising within two years, and then I will make you a grand duke, and we will compete in the world together..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw a long sword like white jade stabbing at him.
"Poof!" The sword entered his body, and the biting chill made Prince Shadow Leopard feel like he was falling into the abyss.
"Why...why..." Prince Shadow Leopard spit out blood and his eyes were full of unwillingness. He still had a great ambition in his heart that he could not realize.
Chris said calmly: "Sorry, I'm not interested in what you said."
Prince Shadow Leopard's eyes lost their luster, and his body fell weakly to one side.
······
"His Royal Highness has been assassinated!"
A scream broke through the silent night, and the whole camp boiled, and countless strong men rushed towards it.
More than a dozen knights of level five or above surrounded Prince Shadow Leopard's tent, but they did not dare to step forward.
That red figure left an indelible and terrifying impression in their hearts.
Finally, Count Ania opened the curtain.
Under the illumination of the candlelight, Prince Shadow Leopard was seen lying quietly on the bed, his eyes wide open, there was a penetrating wound on his chest, and the blood dyed the bed sheets red.
"He really came to assassinate him!" Aniya was shocked, even with the determination of a sixth-level knight, she was a little scared.
Prince Shadow Leopard is right, that boy is simply a lunatic!
Aniya stepped forward slowly, her fingers stained with blood on the sheets.
The blood is still warm.
This also means that the enemy may not have gone far.
Aniya's body tensed up and she looked around cautiously: "Could his next target be me?"
A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and the scene of Chris killing Sidley and Jason played out in his mind.
At this moment, fire appeared in Aniya's sight.
"It's on fire, come and put out the fire!" Crying sounds came from outside.
Aniya hurried out of the tent and found that the food and grass they had stored had actually burned.
The fires merged into one piece, illuminating a radius of more than ten kilometers like daylight.
Tens of thousands of knights hurriedly began to put out the fire, but there was no water source nearby, and the magic flame was very difficult to extinguish.
They could only watch helplessly as the precious food was burned to ashes in the fire.
"It's over!" Aniya collapsed to the ground weakly.
Unexpectedly, the Blood Dragon Man's revenge would come so quickly.
"I want to go home."
"Someone come and save us."
Countless people cried out in despair, and some screamed at the sky.
······
On a certain mountaintop, Chris watched all this with indifferent eyes.
Without their leader and without food, it is hard to say how many of these people will be able to return alive.
War has always been cruel. There is no right or wrong between countries, only interests.
Chris is not a good person, but he is not a bad person either.
In this pioneering war, the Eagle Kingdom was the invader, so no one from the Iron Rhino Kingdom died because of Chris. He would even stand up for the violated woman, even at the cost of offending the knights of his country.
There may be tens of thousands of people who were killed directly by the coalition forces of the two countries, or died indirectly because of Chris.
"Go home!" Chris mounted the dragon blood horse and disappeared into the night.
······
"Your Highness, are you awake?"
At four o'clock in the morning, Earl Ford dozed off in his chair with his chin in his hands.
He saw the second prince opening his eyes in a daze, and instantly became energetic.
The second prince said with difficulty: "Water..."
"Right away!" Ford quickly took a glass of water, handed it to the second prince's mouth, and waited for him to drink it.
"It's a bit boring. Open the door and let me breathe." The second prince recovered a little and said in a hoarse voice.
"Okay." Earl Ford opened the door halfway, letting in the cool night breeze.
The second prince sat up slowly: "How is the situation in the city? Has the guy who assassinated me been caught?"
"Caught it." Ford began to tell the story with excitement. "He has a lot of background. He is a famous ghost walker on the mainland. He has mastered the two magics of invisibility and shadow jumping, and is especially good at assassination. It was Chris who found his weakness.
, killed him single-handedly."
"That's good." The second prince felt relieved, "That boy Chris really didn't disappoint me. What's the current situation of the two countries' coalition forces? Have they attacked the city?"
