Chapter 1417: Opportunity
In any town, there will never be only one road to take.
The same goes for Ivy League.
In addition to sewers, there are many secret passages and secret passages that are not known to the public.
Some of these roads lead to the castle lord's mansion, some lead to the shops, some lead to the outside of the city, or some other areas that are not yet known.
What the nobles took us away was a secret passage with an entrance tightly blocked by ivy plants.
The layers of ivy were opened, and inside the secret passage, it was pitch black.
The guards walked in front with the philosopher's stone lamp, and in the middle of the guards, the great nobles recognized and led the way for us.
The road is long, but the route is straight, and there are no other exits, at least in my opinion, the walls on both sides of this straight secret path are flat and smooth.
After the initial slow and cautious progress, the Grand Noble said that it was okay to speed up his pace, as long as he didn't make too much noise.
After walking for more than ten minutes, we came to the end of the tunnel, and at the end, there was a small iron gate, which was small enough for two people to pass side by side.
The great nobleman pointed to the iron gate and said, "This leads to the villa of the rebel leader, and I think he should be studying the next step in the villa now." ”
Nodding, I stretched out my hand, slowly pulled the small iron door open, and walked in first.
In front of me is a dimly lit storage room.
The great nobleman followed me and whispered, "This secret passage is the escape route prepared by the rebel leader for himself. ”
In an instant, I had no good feelings for the rebel leader.
Although he knew that the rebel leader would definitely have a way out, he still hoped that he could block all the back roads and share life and death with the rebels.
If this were such a strong man, I would have forgiven the children of his family.
But alas, he was out.
Quietly except for the storage room, under the leadership of the great nobles, all the way to the room of the rebel leader.
There was a sound of footsteps in the room, presumably someone pacing there.
I sneered and slowly pushed the door open.
In the luxuriously decorated room, several elves stood and sit, lined up on the left and right, and in the center of the room, a man dressed in aristocratic costume, twisted his eyebrows and whispered, pacing back and forth.
After confirming that it was the leader of the rebel army and several high-ranking officials, I slowly unsheathed the big sword, walked into the room unhurriedly, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, everyone, can you please lie down honestly and answer my question?" ”
The sound of the cold sound caused the whole room to explode, and everyone looked at me in horror for a few seconds, and suddenly went crazy to find their respective weapons.
There is a very different difference between coming prepared and fighting unprepared.
Just as they were going to get their weapons, I, the Ivy City Lord and I, as well as several of the accompanying guards, had already prepared our weapons and beckoned to the panicked elves in the room.
This move did not kill any of them, but cut them all, completely incapacitating them to fight, and they could only stare angrily.
One of them, staring at the great noble, his eyes were full of anger: "You actually betrayed us!" ”
The nobleman chuckled and said, "I was bewitched and confused by you before, so I joined this Raushzi rebel organization, and now that the elders have been empowered, I have come to my senses, and naturally I want to return to the right path and draw a line with you rebels." ”
The leader of the rebel army looked at me coldly, his eyes were complicated, and he said, "You are the new elder?" ”
"Yes," I said, "it's down." ”
"Very good, very good!" He sneered and said, "I really didn't expect that the human race would have the ability to go straight to Longtan!" ”
"You're overestimating yourself," I smiled, "and it's a snake nest at best." ”
"Snake's nest?" He snorted coldly: "I was underestimated." ”
Spreading my hands, I walked up to him and said, "Could you please explain why you want to incite the inhabitants, organize the troops, and betray the Empress?" ”
He sneered: "This kind of thing, you can't think clearly?" ”
"Oh roar? Still a hard temper" grinned, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and the tip of the big sword pointed downward, piercing the palm of the rebel leader without hesitation.
The sudden change made him stunned, and then, a heart-rending wail resounded through the room.
Soon, there were footsteps in the hallway, as well as the hurried and confused voices of some men and women: "What's the matter, I heard a scream coming from the room?" ”
"What should I do?" The Ivy City City Lord asked with an awe-inspiring face.
My face did not change, but I still smiled, and ordered: "A few of you are guarding the door, and all those who break into the room will be killed." ”
As soon as these words came out, the wailing leader instantly stopped howling, and he said in horror: "Don't, don't ......"
However, it was too late, and the few guards who were the first to break in, as well as the young men and women who broke into the room after them, were mercilessly killed by the city lord and the guards, and they didn't even have time to let out a wail.
"You, you ......" the rebel leader's eyes were full of hatred, and he said, "You are simply a devil!" ”
Beside him, several nobles who were injured and lying on the ground unable to move also spoke: "You dare to kill nobles at will!" Do you really think that the elders can do whatever they want? ”
I swept over them one by one with a cold gaze, and said, "From the moment you decided to betray the Empress, your titles of nobility, as well as your status, wealth, and so on, have been stripped away, and now you have no other status except the status of sinners, and it is up to me to decide how to execute sinners." ”
"My family is innocent," the leader trembled, and the piercing wound on his hand once again made him suffer, and even his voice trembled.
"Innocent to you," I said, "to me, they are shielding and rebels. ”
"Alright," I ruthlessly interrupted his next words, and said coldly, "That's the end of the chatter, tell me, why did you betray the Empress?" ”
"Die!" The leader gritted his teeth, and the hatred in his eyes was even stronger, at this moment, he couldn't eat my flesh and drink my blood.
"Don't you want to say it......" Raising my head, my gaze swept over the faces of each rebel cadre, I said, "What about you, who will tell me why you want to betray the Empress?" ”
All the cadres and the leaders, staring at me with hatred and anger in their eyes.
"Heh" I chuckled lightly and said: "It's hard enough, all of them are good men, no one refuses to betray each other, it's good, very good, but I want to say, it's unfortunate, you missed the last chance to make up for it, why do you think I'm asking you these questions in front of the Ivy League City Lord, I'm giving you one last chance, although you have to die, but if you cooperate, I can let your family go, give them some money, and let them live as civilians from now on, but it's a pity, You voluntarily turned down this opportunity. ”
