"Why do you think I will take him in?" Jia Zhengjin frowned and looked at the other party and asked calmly. If he attracts the demon envoys, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
"Lord Keen is joking!" Churchill said hurriedly, "Even the Dragon of Darkness is no match for you. You are now a God-killer known to the world. How can you be your match for a mere demon envoy?"
"Don't think that I will help you if you just say a few nice words!" Jia Zhengjin said calmly, "No matter how strong the demon envoy is, he will eventually cause trouble to the Holy Dragon City!"
"Lord Keen has a kind heart and will never leave you alone!" Princess Nina said softly.
"Yes, it might be the case for others!" Jia Zhengjin's eyes lingered on her, "But the Beit Empire once came to trouble me, and I don't have a good impression of you."
"Lord Keen, after all, it was the late king who gave the order and it has nothing to do with the princess!" Churchill said anxiously, "Now the Beit Empire exists in name only. Only the princess is left, and I still have a small group of remnants. No matter what happened before
, that has nothing to do with the princess! Besides, with Lord Keen’s strength, didn’t the troops sent by His Majesty the King cause no losses?”
"Although this is true, why should I help you?" Jia Zhengjin shrugged, "Or to be more direct, what are the benefits of helping you?"
"Lord Keen, we only brought back a small amount of gold coins and jewelry from the battlefield, and we have already brought them all over, not a single penny was left!" Princess Nina whispered, "I know the gifts are very few, and they will not be able to catch your eye at all. But.
Apart from that, we have nothing!”
"That's going to be difficult." Jia Zhengjin shook his head, "After all, I'm not familiar with you, right? And we have to risk the demon messengers coming to our door..."
"Lord Keen, as long as you can protect the princess and ensure her safety, I am willing to join your army and do my best for you! Other soldiers are also willing to contribute their own strength to you!" Churchill knelt down on one knee.
He vowed, "Even if you let me step into hell, I will not hesitate!"
"Oh?" Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised, "You don't hesitate to go to this extent? Stepping into hell is equivalent to death. Are you willing to die if I let you?"
Churchill was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Princess Nina beside him, and then showed a firm look: "Yes! As long as Lord Keen is willing to protect Princess Nina, I will never regret it even if I die!"
"General Churchill..." Princess Nina looked gratefully at the veteran who followed her faithfully.
"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin closed his eyes and thought for a few seconds, then opened his eyes and looked at him and said coldly, "Then I'll give you a chance."
"Thank you, Lord Keen..." A trace of joy flashed in Churchill's eyes.
"Wait! I haven't finished speaking," Jia Zhengjin pointed at him, "I can agree to your request, but you need to let me see whether the promise is true!"
"What does Lord Keen mean...?"
"Now you pull out your sword and commit suicide in front of me, then I will keep Princess Nina and ensure that no one can hurt her!" Jia Zhengjin looked at him expressionlessly, "Can you do it?"
"This..." General Churchill looked pale and looked at Jia Zhengjin in disbelief. In his mind, Lord Keen should be the savior of the world and a great figure in the light camp. How could he make such a request?
Not to mention Churchill, Princess Nina was also completely stunned and couldn't believe everything she heard.
Seeing that Princess Nina and Churchill were both stunned, Jia Zhengjin snorted: "Can't do it? Then it proves that what you just said is false. You should leave Holy Dragon City as soon as possible!"
"General Churchill, since Lord Keen can't tolerate us, let's go!" Princess Nina showed disappointment on her face, "You can't force others to do anything!"
"No!" Churchill shook his head vigorously, "Now the only place that can ensure the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess is Holy Dragon City! Only in Lord Keen's territory can the demon envoys not dare to act arrogantly!"
"But Master Keen is not willing..." Princess Nina sighed softly.
"Your Highness Princess, you must live in peace!" Churchill said solemnly, "Now you are the only one left in the royal family of the Beit Empire. If you are also in danger, everything will be over! Churchill is deeply favored by His Majesty, and now
It’s time to repay the favor! As long as you can live well, Churchill is willing to do anything!”
"General Churchill, could you..." Princess Nina was startled and hurriedly bent over and grabbed his arm, "No! Now the only person I can trust is the old general. If you die, I will never do it again."
There is no one to rely on! Since Lord Keen is not willing, we can totally find another way out! You cannot die, absolutely not!"
"Your Highness the Princess!" Churchill raised his head, his eyes slightly moist, "Hearing these words, knowing that the Princess attaches so much importance to me, Churchill will die with no regrets! The hope of the Beit Empire is Her Highness the Princess, and the hope of the Princess is the Saint
Dragon City! Nowadays, apart from Holy Dragon City, it is difficult to find a force powerful enough to fight against the demon envoys. If Churchill’s death can provide shelter for Her Royal Highness, that would be the most cost-effective deal!"
"No! General Churchill, no!" Princess Nina's nose became sore and tears fell down. Now she really only has General Churchill to rely on. If even this old general dies, then
He completely lost everything, "If you want to exchange for my peace with the general's death, we might as well face the enemy together!"
"Your Highness the Princess..." Churchill was very moved.
"General Churchill, you must not trade your life for my safety!" Princess Nina said firmly, "Let's go! There is always a place in the world. At most, you can live in seclusion for the rest of your life and not be found by the demon envoys!"
"Your Highness the Princess..."
"Let's go, General Churchill!" Princess Nina pulled up Churchill who was kneeling on the ground. She looked back at Jia Zhengjin and said, "Master Keen, since you are unwilling to take us in, please forgive us for disturbing us! Let's leave now!"
Jia Zhengjin shrugged his shoulders and expressed his casualness.
Seeing Princess Nina pulling Churchill around and preparing to leave, Churchill, who was standing behind, suddenly raised his right hand, tried his best to control the force, and lightly hit her on the back of the neck.
Before Princess Nina could react, her vision went dark and she fainted.
Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised and was very surprised when he saw this scene.
General Churchill sighed softly, bent down and picked up Princess Nina, turned around and slowly came to Jia Zhengjin, with a serious look on his face: "Lord Keen, does what you just said still count?
"It counts! Of course it counts!" Jia Zhengjin looked at him and nodded.
"Okay!" General Churchill carefully handed Princess Nina to him, "Please protect Her Royal Highness and don't let her get any harm!"
Jia Zhengjin took over Princess Nina's petite body, which was as light as a feather. His eyes stayed on General Churchill, waiting to see if he had the guts to commit suicide.
If he can really commit suicide for Princess Nina, this loyalty will be worth it. There is nothing to worry about if he dies, he can be resurrected instantly by calling Claire.
After all, Churchill is an experienced veteran. If he can be included in the Holy Dragon City camp, he may be able to significantly increase the strength of the army. (To be continued)
