In the tunnel with only a faint firelight, facing Tiana with a cold face, Simmons' lips trembled slightly.
"Marshal Yuan..."
"Did you kill him?"
"yes……"
"It is very reasonable for the Demon Searchers to execute the defected commander of the Demon Searchers." She took a deep breath and said, "If nothing happens, please leave first and do what a minister should do."
"minister……"
"Are you prepared to watch the remaining demon seekers killed by angry nobles?"
Simmons was horrified when he heard this. The original high-level officials of the Demon Soul were basically dead and injured. Now I am afraid that he is the only one who has the confidence to talk to those nobles!
"Thank you Marshal!"
He stood up suddenly and ran wildly through the tunnel without using his magic power subconsciously.
Tiana waited until he left before her sword fell to the ground with a clang. Looking at Sethia's miserable death, she breathed quietly and tried her best to control her emotions.
"I'm sorry that I couldn't arrive earlier to give you a decent death."
…
Simmons hurried back to the demon seeker camp, and as expected, all the demon seekers who surrendered were surrounded by angry crowds.
"Stop! Stop!"
He fought hard to push away the crowd: "I obey the king's order, and I will take care of the remaining demon hunters!"
"Are you Simmons?" Someone in the crowd recognized him and immediately asked in surprise: "How did your eyes...come to look like this?"
Everyone followed the sound and heard that Simmons' evil vertical pupils did not disappear and were immediately exposed under the scorching sun.
"He wasn't like this before!"
"It's weird, why do you look like those mages?!"
"Test him with the Forbidden Demon Stone! If not, he is a traitor among the Demon Searchers!"
"I have your Majesty's token."
When Simmons heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He quickly raised the certificate given to him by Jarvan III, and someone next to him grabbed a fragment of the Forbidden Demon Stone and patted it on his hand.
Simmons screamed as he felt the burning pain, the token in his hand fell, and the forbidden magic stone lit up with white light...
"He's a mage!"
Someone roared angrily: "Clear proof that the demon seekers colluded with the mages!"
"catch him!"
Kong Wu's strong hands pulled him over, and his sandbag-sized fists directly blocked his words.
If it weren't for the invisible snake scales protecting him after possessing magic, he might have fallen to the ground directly.
"Beat him to death!"
The angry crowd threw punches and kicks, but Simmons protected his head and was kicked directly into the group of surrendering demon seekers.
The terrifying vertical pupils and the illuminated forbidden magic stone made these former compatriots stunned and silently pushed him out again.
The token fell to the ground and was trampled to pieces. Simmons screamed and was knocked to the ground.
"Why……?"
He looked at his fellow demon hunters, and the looks in their eyes frightened him!
"You ask why?"
A big man rushed over and pressed him down, swinging his fist wildly. One punch hit the bridge of his nose, causing blood to pour out of him.
"It's not like you damn demon hunters, the thief shouts "Catch the thief!" Archduke Sirode also died because of you!"
"Demon hunter?! Ha! What a worm of the kingdom!"
He was once again surrounded by the crowd, with light or heavy fists and kicks falling on his face, lower abdomen, back, and all over his body. He spit out mouthfuls of blood. The stimulated Simmons' vertical pupils became more and more terrifying.
.
A gray snake scale shield automatically formed on his body, resisting wave after wave of attacks for him, while an astonishing whisper of magic struck his head.
"Look, he is indeed a mage!"
The whisper of magic crazily stimulated the violence in his mind, and the giant gray snake spit out and hissed to the sky. Its huge body was always trying to obey the call of the whisper of magic to rush outside and kill wantonly!
Simmons tried his best to protect himself, his teeth were bleeding and his eyes were red.
The abuse from people around him and the indifferent looks from his colleagues made him even more painful.
Why!
Perhaps he already knew the answer to this question.
Because he has now become a mage, a mage who was arbitrarily arrested, attacked and even killed by their demon hunters...
"It turned out that I would be treated like this, that I would feel such grievance..."
Simmons suppressed the murderous impulse in his heart and gradually accepted his share of the crime.
In a short period of time, his lifelong beliefs suffered devastating blows one after another.
"Put a magic stone chain on him, and he won't be able to block with magic!"
"quick!"
The shackles were added to his body, severe pain was transmitted from the Forbidden Demon Stone, and the giant snake in his mind dissipated with an unwilling hiss.
"If I want to die here, then I will die here."
Simmons, who had lost all protection, closed his eyes as if resigned to his fate.
"Boom!"
A building in the Demon Searcher camp in the distance suddenly collapsed, the ground collapsed and dust flew up, and Scythia slept forever in the tunnel.
A figure slowly walked out of the flames of the ruins.
Everyone couldn't help but stop their movements. Tiana held the sword with an indifferent expression, her silver-white armor dazzling.
"What are you doing?"
She asked lightly.
"Report to the marshal, Simmons is a mage, and he is definitely an accomplice of those rebellious mages!"
"Is there any evidence to prove that he is a traitor to the party?"
"Simmons has never participated in the rebellion from beginning to end, and he also personally killed Grantham Sethia. How dare you attack members of the Supreme Council without any evidence!" She shouted suddenly, and her momentum was easily overwhelmed by one person.
A team of nobles united.
"Who should handle the mage's case?" She sneered: "Is it you?"
The guards of the Marshal's Mansion, who had never participated in the battle, quickly came to guard her. The military formation was strict. Tiana gave the order simply and neatly: "Take these demon hunters into prison pending trial. Simmons is bound to be chained by the Forbidden Demon Stone. I want
Take him to see His Majesty."
"……yes!"
No one here dared to disobey Tiana, let alone that she had just lost her husband... At this time, the extremely suppressed anger in her heart almost ran out of her eyes!
Simmons, who had been beaten to a state of disgrace, tried to open his eyes with only a slit left and looked at Tiana's figure. Then he coughed violently in pain, and his miserable laughter echoed in the black smoke in the sky.
…
…
"Sir, are you really sure this is the last potion for today?"
"I'm sure, uh... I'm not particularly sure." Sir William was energetic and enthusiastic: "Nina, why don't you prepare the ingredients for the next potion for me?"
"Now you should go back and rest." Nina refused firmly: "Even if you want to share a bed with Mr. Shelley at night, I don't think he is willing!"
"well!"
Sir William frowned and sighed, and looked at Chai Anping with some emotion, but to no avail.
"Then I'll come back tomorrow." He regretfully started to pack the utensils.
After drinking more than a dozen tubes of medicine, Chai Anping's tongue was about to turn into shit. He wished he could leave quickly!
"Sir William! Sir William! Please wait a moment. Fortunately, you haven't left yet... Another patient has arrived!"
A waiter suddenly rushed to the door, and then the sound of heavy chains rubbing against the ground was heard in the aisle.
Soon, four or five heavily armed soldiers escorted a criminal covered in blood who appeared at the door. His body was covered with white magic stone chains.
"this……"
Sir William and Chai Anping both let out a cry of surprise.
"We will place the person next door. Sir, please come over and take a look later. This is what your Majesty has instructed..."
"I see."
Sir William frowned - it was said that the ban on mages was to be abolished, but why did he arrest another one now and beat him so badly? Was he tortured to extract a confession?
Chai Anping was trembling with fear. Although the man was beaten to a bloody pulp, it was Simmons, right?
That’s right?!
There are many question marks in the children's minds at this time.
