"No, of course I haven't."

At the same moment, in the player's residence near the City Lord's Mansion in Tanzan City, President Arashiyama, who was wrapped in herbs and bandages, suddenly let out two old laughs, and at the same time waved aside the white vapor emitted around him with a big hand like a fan: "The damage of the Restorationists is also huge to the Empire, and Bernard of the Giant Eagle is still recuperating from his injuries in the Imperial Capital Redkar, but ...... In the face of more profit-seeking, this level of hatred is not enough to justify them to let it go. ”

"We're not asking to let go, we're asking for ...... Cooperate. The whisperer sitting across from him bowed his head and replied, "Even if you can't do anything in this regard, you should at least give some necessary assistance and contact in this regard." ”

"Sympathy is not a bargain to convince us to nod our heads, ma'am." took a towel handed over by his subordinates, wrapped the bandaged Cangyun Barrier and then began to wipe the sweat on his head: "In fact, it is not certain whether we are on the front now, if the situation here is really as changed as it is now......"

"Have you forgotten our previous agreement?"

"Even if it's an alliance agreement, there are a lot of things that can't be counted in the end."

Forcefully shook the towel in his hand aside, and the expression of Cangyun Barrier between his hands became a little more serious: "I'm not alarmist, but people's hearts are so difficult to grasp, even if you and I are sitting opposite each other now and drinking and talking, the next moment may become an enemy who divides the spoils unevenly......"

"Are you right, the eldest lady of the Lou family?" The back of his hand turned out slightly, slowly revealing his chest full of scars under the magic light: "You came to me this time, aren't you also afraid that our Lanshan will rebel?" ”

“…… That's right. Ignoring the momentum and threat vaguely emanating from the president of Arashiyama on the other side, he frowned at his brow: "I hope that you and your subordinates will abide by the agreement and remove those who should not be related from the list before tomorrow's judgment is about to come......"

"I'm sorry, I can't promise you."

The voice paused slightly, and the voice of the Cangyun barrier became much lower: "Because His Royal Highness the Prince has already decided." ”

“…… What to decide? ”

"He decided not to show mercy anymore."

There was a slight tension in the air between the huge body and the blue-haired female swordsman not far away, and the voice belonging to President Arashiyama then echoed around the room with a heavy hum: "The Violet Lord named Violet is suspected of murder and treason, and she and the most important magicians will be judged by the oldest and harshest of times, and those who are potential and potential helpers, he will not let go this time." ”

"Facilitator?" The whispering voice gradually became cold: "I wonder who His Royal Highness the so-called helper is?" ”

"Don't worry, it's not you who jumped out to fight her at a critical moment anyway."

Holding his knees and letting out two loud laughs, Cangyun Barrier then draped the shirt thrown by his subordinates on the huge body that still exuded endless heat: "Many NPCs in the free world also have the setting of 'first impression', and the initial impression left by the player will greatly affect the prestige trend in the hearts of that NPC in the future, I don't know if you and your subordinates have been in contact with the prince named Chris before, but judging from his current performance...... He seems to have a good impression of this adventurer. ”

"The attack on Violet was actually forced." Still staring at the other party's whisper, he shook his head slightly: "I just wanted to find someone, and by the way, I broke into the center of the battlefield." ”

"Don't quibble, I know what you were for." Cangyun Barrier slapped his thigh vigorously: "Our Lanshan is now the seat guest of the Royal Guard, and they are their only adventurer partner in the Imperial Capital, and they have already told us the details of the battle two days ago. ”

"You're actually looking for that man, aren't you?" Putting away his laughter, his body leaned forward slightly: "The man who stayed with the snow spirit phantom ice who suddenly turned into a trumpet...... I remember it was to cut off the water in the abyss, right? ”

“……”

"To be honest, I'm also very interested in the identity of the man who is inexplicably hated by the prince."

Looking at the other party's gradually silent reaction, the voice of the Cangyun Barrier also became low: "Judging from the descriptions of many witnesses who did not have much difference, it was this gray-robed magician who inflicted the final blow on the Violet Lord, I heard that this guy is a novice who is only in his twenties, but the strength he shows is unfathomable...... Not. ”

"So, he's also one of the scapegoats that His Royal Highness recruited before, right?" Speaking of this, a little inexplicable light flashed in his eyes: "This seems to make sense......"

"What do you want to say?"

"Identity, identity."

In the face of the follow-up questioning, Cangyun Barrier still maintained the smile on the corner of his mouth: "When His Royal Highness the Prince released the mission information and looked for the adventurer guard, it seemed that there was also a little bit of the intention of inviting the king into the urn, in his eyes, those who tried their best to get to him, maybe they were the ones who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to plot against him......"

"Is there something wrong with His Royal Highness the Prince's head?"

finally couldn't help but stand up, and his face, which was like frost: "Others fought with their lives to help him, but in the end, they couldn't leave any good impression?" ”

"Not only that, but he is still one of the targets that His Royal Highness the Prince is preparing to punish."

Saying the words that made the blue-haired female swordsman's eyes widen with rage, the leader of Arashiyama closed his eyes calmly: "His Royal Highness is from the royal family, who knows what royal strife and killing he has experienced in the past twenty years, his suspicions and the city, we ordinary players are also incomprehensible......"

"It's like this is a foregone conclusion." He pointed behind him, in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion: "Personal interests and gains and losses are of no use in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, who has already mastered everything, he is now the Emperor of Tanzanian City, unless you change that person's own mind, your luck will end here." ”

"That's the main reason you agreed to meet with me this time, right?" Qiang Xin suppressed the anger in his heart, and squeezed out his voice from between his gritted teeth: "You want to warn me? ”

"Of course not." Standing up slowly, the white shirt of Cangyun Barrier smiled at the other party: "I'm just acting as a temporary ally, hoping that you can decide your position in advance." ”

"lest you fall victim to some in the flood to come."

**********************************

The turbulent torrent did not really appear on the surface of Tanzania City because of these words of the Cangyun Barrier, but became much calmer with the passage of time, but both the nobles of Tanzania City who lived here and the imperial officers and soldiers who stayed here knew that these peaceful calms were just an illusion created by His Royal Highness the Prince's deliberate hand--with the growing support of the Imperial people who took to the streets, and led the Royal Guards to quell the rebellion in the previous battle. The prince of the empire, who single-handedly blocked the Lord of Violet and the tide of the abyss, has gradually been portrayed as a hero of the new generation of the empire, so the trial of the "Demon King" Violet designated by him has naturally become a grand celebration of victory after the rebirth of Tanzanian City just after the catastrophe.

It's just that as the loser's side, this grand event seems to have been secretly indulged and vaguely affirmed by the restorationists at the same time.

"Is this plan a success or a failure?"

"Probably failed, after all, we didn't get the sacrifice in the end, but with the current state of the Magic Council, most of the time we don't have time to pay attention to the question of whether we succeeded or not......

"Poor Terrence, the chaos of the Magical Council hasn't stopped since he was cut in half by the Men and Towers in that first performance."

"Whatever, as long as you can kill that great magician at the lord level, this action will not be in vain! Hahaha! ”

Under the gaze and gaze of countless light and darkness, the judgment promised by His Royal Highness Prince Chris, finally came to everyone as promised, and the location chosen for this trial, which has attracted more and more attention, is also set in the center of the central square at the entrance of the city lord's mansion as most players expected. At noon when the sun was rising high again, the unknown statue that had stood in the middle of the central square was dismantled and transformed into an identical platform, and the cross that stood on the stone platform with runic chains binding Violet became the object of attention from many citizens of Tanzania and players who came to participate in the event: "Look, it's the Lord of Violet!" ”

"She's not the Lord of Violet, she's a witch! It's the witch who nearly tore the void apart and destroyed the entire city! ”

"That's right! It's a terrifying monster like the Dark Witch! ”

"Burn her! Burn her! ”

The chaotic voices gradually turned into a neat shout, which was amplified around the central square, where countless streets crisscrossed each other, and they stared together at the miserable figure of the woman who looked rather embarrassed, completely different from the glamorous and noble of the past, hanging miserably in the middle of the cross, as if staring at their common enemy. Retracting his gaze slightly, Duan Qing, who was sitting far away from the square, then let out two low chuckles, and his clothes swaying in the wind finally spread out along the edge of the roof of one of the houses he was in with the action of sitting on the ground: "Every time I encounter this situation, I will have a new understanding of your reputation in your previous life. ”

"That's a lie." Xue Lingphantom Bing, who was standing beside him, also plucked the tips of his hair in the wind: "Where am I so vicious." ”

"I don't know if your past is as true as they say it is, but Violet was very dangerous before." Duan Qing, who was propped up on his knees with his elbows, smiled and shook his head: "That woman destroyed the magical structure of Tanzanian City twice, and the spatial collapse we were facing at that time was never an illusion, but...... Not. ”

"Looks like it's about to start." He stopped what he was about to say, and pointed to the back of the crowded central platform, "The Lord has finally appeared. ”

Following his gaze, the white-haired woman standing sideways also placed her distant gaze on the location of the city lord's mansion directly opposite the high platform, and the queue of two rows of royal guards under the countless golden lights was neatly emerging from the middle of the open gate at this time, showing the glorious image of the first prince of the empire leading the team in front of everyone. The creaking sound of the gate could not compare to the neat shouts that reverberated over the square, but it still made the citizens who blocked the surrounding area quickly quiet, and they watched the blonde-haired prince slowly walk up the high platform along the paved road, and faced the great magician who seemed to be dying with a serious and confident look: "All right. ”

"This is your last chance." His voice was low and loud, especially clear in the silent air: "If you nod your head in agreement now, my previous proposals will still be valid. ”

“……”

"Good."

In the increasingly silent atmosphere, His Royal Highness Prince Chris, who was standing in front of the woman with his hands behind his back, waited motionless for a long time, and then silently turned his head back in the fruitless result: "I understand what you mean, I'm sorry." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen."

In the midst of the countless eyes meeting each other, the blond-haired figure walked to the front of the high platform, and then stretched out his arms towards the people under the stage in the neat footsteps of the surrounding royal guards completely surrounding the high platform: "Citizens of Tanzania! I am His Royal Highness Prince Chris Frey Cadreft. ”

"As you can see, today will be the oldest and most serious Imperial Judgment." He shouted directly in front of the tidal crowd, "It was a fair trial that I promised you!" ”

"Just three days ago, the former Great Magician behind me brought a catastrophe to the city, countless people lost their lives, and countless people lost their homes!"

"Today, it's time to ask the culprits who are responsible for all this! Every Imperial man can ask for guilt! Every Empire can decide her fate! ”

With a wave of his hand, he revealed the cross behind him in the slanting sunlight: "Now I declare—"

"The trial begins!"
