Six hundred and fiftieth chapters: it is better to go back
The entire wide corridor was gradually blocked by the Blue Star guards who arrived in time. They spontaneously blocked the place, blocking the path forward of Malone, because at the end of the road was the king's residence.
I don’t know who was the first to spread the news that Ma Long was going to the palace to assassinate him. Everyone present believed it. In order to protect the safety of the king, they gathered here and blocked Ma Long’s way.
Ma Long admired their fearless spirit of sacrifice, but if Ma Long really wanted to assassinate, this small number of people would not be able to withstand them for a second.
The two sides were in a stalemate for several minutes, and the Blue Star people stood ready and vowed not to take a step back. Ma Long had no intention of moving forward in a hurry, and he did not want the situation to become more stalemate. At the same time, he was thinking about what to do next.
Suddenly, the neatly arranged team suddenly separated, everyone stood sideways to both sides, and a path opened up in the crowded corridor for only two people to walk side by side.
Ma Long took a closer look and saw that it was King Blue Star walking through the crowd.
"Your Majesty, it is dangerous here, please go back!" A captain of the guard bowed to prevent the king from getting into danger.
"Yes, His Majesty the King, leave this place to us. We will never let this undercover take a step forward again." "Unless he steps over my body!" Other Blue Star guards also responded and expressed their support.
The king's determination to sacrifice himself.
King Blue Star calmed the excitement of the people around him and said slowly: "Don't be nervous, everyone, please calm down. We need to find out the truth."
As he said that, the king cast his eyes on Ma Long across from him. "Ma Long, can you explain what is going on?"
At this time, the king was also muttering in his heart, a little uncertain. After all, people's words are scary. When Ma Long broke out of the wormhole, news spread like snowflakes to the palace. Various versions of Ma Long
The news reached the king's ears one by one. The messengers of each piece of news swore that they had witnessed it with their own eyes and listed various crimes committed by Malone. This made the king who lived in the palace somewhat confused.
To be fair, King Blue Star would definitely be more inclined to believe his subordinates and believe everything they said, rather than an outsider. In this way, Ma Long's status in the king's heart was shaken step by step.
"Your Majesty the King, what do you want me to explain?" Malone slowly pointed out the focus of the question, "Have I done anything to harm Blue Star? Have I hurt a Blue Star person? I am just a worm.
I walked out of the cave and returned to the palace. On this short journey, I encountered countless obstacles and obstructions. Your Majesty the King can see the situation clearly. They didn't even let me take another step forward.
." As he spoke, Ma Long's mood became irritable.
The misunderstanding between the two sides is getting deeper and deeper.
"Ma Long, what we want to know is whether you are an undercover agent sent by the earth." The king also asked directly and pointedly, "Last night, you were supposed to rest in the palace, and no one was seen going out. Why did you suddenly appear again today?
Appearing from a wormhole? Not only does this make us suspect that you have returned to Earth without permission and done something detrimental to our blue star. We just want to figure this out."
Hearing the king's ruthless questions made Ma Long a little angry, and his tone couldn't help but get angry. "Am I your prisoner? All my actions must be approved by you? Where should I go? Of course
It is my personal freedom. I don’t think it is necessary to report to any of you. I don’t think I should be subject to such unreasonable suspicion. Don’t forget, Your Majesty the King, even when the order came from Earth to transfer me, I
If I don’t comply, I don’t want to be controlled by anyone. You Blue Star people are even less likely to do so!”
King Blue Star's face became increasingly ugly. Ma Long did not answer his question directly, but instead took advantage of him. If he had not been kind to Blue Star, the king would have walked away at this time.
The atmosphere around them became even more awkward. Neither of them made any concessions, and even the air seemed to be condensed.
Finally, King Blue Star closed his eyes heavily, shook his head slowly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Ma Long, if you do this, it will make it very difficult for me. I have to give everyone an explanation, but you can't do anything.
Don’t want to say——”
"Your Majesty, I said I didn't do anything, are you willing to believe me?" Ma Long responded calmly, "I said I was not an undercover agent, will you believe me?"
Ma Long had already spoken for this reason, and he also knew that everything was inevitable and irreversible.
The king was silent for at least a minute, neither saying he believed it nor saying he didn't believe it. He just replied: "But everything you did today cannot be explained."
"That means you no longer believe me..." Malone asked in disappointment. The meaning of the king's words was already obvious, and Malone could of course hear the undertones.
The king sighed and finally said what he was thinking. "Before this, I have always been willing to believe you, and even forced myself to believe you. But now, how can you make me continue to believe you? I am becoming more and more suspicious.
Now...I can only choose to trust the people around me..."
Ma Long couldn't hold it back and taunted: "It's like believing the two sons around you who betrayed you..."
The king suppressed the anger in his heart. Ma Long's words seemed to have touched a dark past in the king's heart that he didn't want to be mentioned. "Ma Long, don't force me..."
Since he dared to say this to the king, Ma Long had naturally made up his mind.
"Your Majesty the King, I won't make things difficult for you anymore." Malone said expressionlessly, "I think it's time for me to leave. I really regret that I secretly returned back for your Blue Star. But that's it.
Yes, I saved a companion by the way. The only regret is that I couldn't save the princess. But you are no longer willing to believe me, so I have lost the meaning of staying here. That's it, I'll leave the rest to you.
I did it myself. After all, I am also a mortal, not an omnipotent God. I cannot do everything perfectly. I have tried my best - I wish you good luck."
With that said, Ma Long turned around resolutely and turned his back to everyone. He knew that it was time for him to leave.
At this moment, the king's heart hesitated, but it was only a momentary waver. Then, he chose to stand beside his own people and said to Malone: "Blue Star will always remember your contribution, Malone. King's Landing"
Your name will always shine on the mountain. I hope we will not meet on the battlefield in the future."
Ma Long slowly left the royal capital and walked step by step to the junction of the wormholes.
Finally, he looked back at the Blue Star people who were following and watching him. Ma Long smiled helplessly. Sometimes, people really can't help themselves.
"Goodbye, Blue Star..." Ma Long stepped into the wormhole and prayed for the princess in his heart, hoping that she would return safely. But all this has nothing to do with him.
