Jia Zhengjin, Aipal and others, who had eaten the colorful fruit and the heart of the fire python, did not care that the food on the table was poisonous and ate it with relish.
As for Olivia, Amy and Atticus, who had no ability to resist poison, they pretended to eat together, but in fact, what went into their stomachs was the non-toxic dry food they brought.
After eating and drinking, everyone climbed on the table and pretended to be sick.
Although there was no one watching inside the room, there was someone guarding the door.
Seeing that they were "dead by poison", the soldiers in charge of the guard immediately went out to send a message. Soon there were rapid footsteps and several nobles arrived.
After these nobles entered the room, they glanced at Jia Zhengjin and others who were lying around, and showed a proud smile.
"Fortunately, we came a step earlier, and the overall situation has been decided!" A skinny nobleman with a goatee said proudly, "Even if the king knows about this, he can only swallow his dissatisfaction."
"What to do with these bodies?"
"Just throw it into the wild, and the wild beasts will take care of it for us." The skinny nobleman whispered, "No one is allowed to leak this matter!"
"Don't worry, we are all our people here."
"That's good!"
"Hurry up! Take care of everything before the king arrives, and don't let him know that we are here."
"yes!!"
A general-looking man came in immediately with soldiers, preparing to carry the "body".
It seems that this matter has nothing to do with the king, but the forces behind it are doing it without telling him. Jia Zhengjin nodded secretly in his heart, since the real owner has appeared, there is no need to pretend anymore.
Before the other party could approach the dining table, he suddenly sat up, quickly turned around and pulled his hood open a little.
The "corpse" suddenly stood up, startling the other party.
The food is highly poisonous, and even the strongest person cannot withstand it after eating it.
The dining table was in a mess. It was obvious that these people had eaten a lot, so why could they still stand up?
The general who led the troops reacted quite quickly. After being cold for a second, he immediately drew his sword and pounced on him, trying to subdue Jia Zhengjin.
Although we don’t know what happened to him, we must not be left alive at this time.
As soon as the general took action, the soldiers behind him drew their weapons and surrounded him.
At this moment, Tina, April, Perrin, Olivia, Amy, Atticas and others behind Jia Zhengjin all stood up and took out their weapons and made fighting postures.
The nobles at the scene were even more shocked. They thought they could poison the opponent without anyone noticing and then end it quietly. How come all the people who were supposed to be dead were resurrected inexplicably?
The general had already rushed in front of Jia Zhengjin, and he raised his sword to chop without hesitation.
Jia Zhengjin quickly raised his right hand and gently pulled up his hood, briefly revealing his face under the hood. A pair of eyes flashed red: "Mind control!"
A strange red light flashed, and not only the general, but also the soldiers following him stopped and acted particularly strangely.
"What's going on? Kill them quickly!" The skinny noble shouted anxiously, and at the same time subconsciously retreated out surrounded by other nobles.
The red light flashed in Jia Zhengjin's eyes again, and the opponent's general quickly turned around and led his soldiers to chase him out, quickly surrounding the group of nobles who tried to escape.
"Are you going to rebel? General Delang!" The thin nobleman was a little panicked and couldn't help but scream.
The nobles around him also drew their weapons, showing extremely nervous expressions.
The general and his soldiers were temporarily controlled by Jia Zhengjin. Faced with the questioning of the skinny noble, they did not react at all, but the same strange red light flashed in their eyes.
"What's going on?" Because Jia Zhengjin's back was turned to him, Atticus didn't notice anything unusual. He saw the other general and his troops rushing over, suddenly stopped attacking, and turned around to help control the nobles.
The enemy suddenly turned into a friendly force helping his side, which made him look confused.
"Magic." Tina responded casually, and of course she would not tell him the specific information in detail.
Atticus was amazed and kept thinking about what kind of magic could do such a thing, but the obvious advantage was here, so it seemed that hiring this team temporarily was the right thing to do.
Jia Zhengjin controlled General Delang and his soldiers to start a fierce battle with the surrounded nobles.
After killing two unlucky nobles, the remaining ones were disarmed, tied up, and quickly escorted in front of him.
Just as it ended here, there was another commotion outside, and a large number of heavily armed soldiers hurriedly arrived, making the atmosphere at the scene suddenly tense.
Not sure whether the heavily armored soldiers were friends or foes, Jia Zhengjin asked General Delang to lead his troops to prepare for the attack.
"Marquis Cros, it turns out that you are the manipulator behind the scenes!" A majestic voice sounded from behind the heavily armored soldiers, "Why don't you just surrender and be captured?"
Marquis Cros? Jia Zhengjin glanced at the skinny nobleman trapped on the ground and wondered, could he be referring to him?
It’s true that this skinny nobleman is the Kross the other party calls.
He was tightly tied up, and when he glanced at the fierce-looking soldiers around him, he thought to himself: Didn't I just capture him without any help? But he was a little confused, why did one of my own people betray me? Could it be that they had been secretly bribed by the king a long time ago, and all my plans were ruined?
Leaked?
Just as he was thinking about it, a majestic man wearing royal robes and holding a scepter, surrounded by several generals, walked through the ranks of heavily armored soldiers and appeared in front of everyone. He should be the king of Normia.
After the king came in, he was about to ask Marquis Cros to surrender. However, when he lowered his head, he saw the tightly tied and dejected Cros, as well as the other nobles who were also captured. Then he looked at the man who was supposed to be Cros.
Marquis Si's trusted general was actually the one who led the troops to arrest them, and he had no idea what was going on here.
King? He is my father...? Atticus, who had never met the king before, could not help but walk out from behind the team and stared directly at the opposite side.
The king also saw Atticus and was immediately stunned: "It looks like, it looks so similar! Juno... No, are you Atticus, my child?"
Hearing this, Atticus' eyes suddenly turned red: "I am!"
"It's okay! Fortunately, you're okay!" The king's eyes were slightly red, "But, can you tell me what's going on here?"
"When we were brought here, someone poisoned the food." Atticus replied excitedly. "Fortunately, these mercenary friends saw through it and saved my life. We pretended to be poisoned, and these people suddenly appeared
When we came to dispose of the body, it was these mercenary friends who helped subdue the other party. Thanks to them, otherwise I would have been dead!"
"Poison?" The king's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he lowered his head to look at Marquis Cross, "You are so cruel!"
Marquis Cros bowed his head and remained silent, obviously knowing that it would be useless to say more.
"I know your purpose for doing this, but you are not helping Julian, but harming him!" The king said coldly, "Fortunately, Julian has nothing to do with this matter and is trying his best to help me investigate the matter. You are doing it without authorization.
Making the decision just because of the queen’s last words? It’s simply ridiculous!” (To be continued)
