Chapter 121: The Hypnotist

"I've fought a lot of battles and seen a lot of enemies. Liam, you still want a lot. ”

"Counterattack? No, no, child, don't be blindly optimistic. ”

"Our plan is to save the survivors, and it must be executed!"

"When will Gilneth be recaptured? Don't worry, Liam, this land belongs to Greyman, and it won't disappear into thin air. Our retreat is temporary, and later we will help you retake it. ”

"Kid, you need to calm down, you can't make blind decisions!"

Step by step, Liam walked back to his tent, like a machine. His mind kept ringing back to what Dalyn Prodmore had just said to him.

But he was not convinced at all.

Tomorrow's disaster is now weak in attack, and now that you have come to support, why don't you counterattack?

Why keep moving civilians outwards instead of reinforcing their positions and waiting for an opportunity to counterattack?

Knowing that the Alliance has hoarded so many troops in Burning Wood Village, why do they only send a few planes and griffons every day, instead of fully cooperating with them to attack the Scourge and recapture the whole territory of Gilneth?

Why do we send people under the fence?

Why should we swallow our anger?

He felt angry and sad. His father is dead, and now he is the king of Gilneys, but Dalin still treats him like a child, and his attitude is so condescending!

'The Coalition didn't really come to the rescue of Gilneth at all,' the voice rang in his head.

They just want to get more people! ’

'Wake up, Gilneth will be divided!' Beware of the Alliance, Liam! ’

It wasn't on his mind at all, but it came straight into his mind. It was as if someone was communicating with him.

'Who is it?' He roared inwardly.

'I am your inner ......,' the mysterious voice conveyed the thought, and then disappeared without a trace. As if it had never been there.

"Liam, Liam!" He felt someone nudge him, and Liam came to his senses to find that it was Darius Crolley, the lord who had always been at odds with his father. He landed with His Majesty Dai Linxià.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm a little worried about your state." Darius looked at him, "Don't overwork, even if it's for Gilneth, take care of yourself." ”

"I see." Liam waved his hand, a little impatient. It was a clear statement of concern, but he always sounded like Darius was asking him to relinquish power—he just had to be a personal stamp. Isn't that so?

Darius was clearly a Gilneisian, but he was firmly on the side of the League. He didn't know how to trust this great lord.

He strode to his tent, oblivious to Darius' concerned gaze.

Liam had just sat down, and felt that he was in a bad position. In any case, Majesty Dalin was here to help Gilneth, and he shouldn't be so eager; Lord Crowley is more of a Gilneth man, and he can't force this person into the Alliance. He regretted it a little, laughing at himself that he was indeed tormented by the pressure and out of shape, and that he was not as sincere and kind as he used to be.

Thinking back to what the mysterious Valoran Yuan had warned him, Liam felt that his mental state was indeed a little more than a problem. He becomes easily nervous and sensitive. This is clearly not a normal state.

He reminded himself to pay attention to corrective attitudes. But no sooner had he made up his mind than another piece of bad news threw him in utter disarray—his sister Tess Greymane stumbled into his tent and cried to him: "Brother, mother, she...... Something happened to her! ”

"What!" Liam Huo Ran got up, shocked, "Mother, what's wrong with her?" ”

"She had a strange illness and couldn't wake up. Dr. Cronan has seen it, and he can't cure it...... What to do, brother, what to do......" Princess Tess's eyes were red and swollen, and she threw herself into Liam's arms and cried helplessly, tears raining down.

"How can this be, how can it be ......" Liam muttered to himself, he was so distraught that he just wanted to hurry to his mother's side. Two days ago, their brother and sister had just lost their father, and now that their mother had an accident, he just felt like the sky was about to fall.

"I'm going to see her! Let's go, I'll take a look! He picked up his sister and strode out of the tent. He didn't have time to say more, and before he could speak, he interrupted, "Lord Cent, Lord Godfrey, I'm going back to Greymane. You'll take care of the matter here! ”

"King, King Liam!" Guffrey wanted to catch up with him and ask what was the matter, but he strode on his horse and ran away with Princess Tess.

Luckily, Princess Tess didn't come alone, and Gofrey pulled a royal guard and finally learned from the other party that something had happened.

He had a bad premonition in his heart, why did the queen fall ill at this time?

Something must be wrong!

Putting his own affairs aside, Gao Frey hurriedly found Lord Crowley and His Majesty Dalin, and told them about the matter, and they needed to discuss a countermeasure.

On the other hand, Liam hurried back to the Greymane Manor, where Queen Mia and Princess Tess lived. He met his mother in the hospital bed. She looked like she was asleep, but her face was haggard and her brow was furrowed. Presumably it was because of the blow her father's death?

The royal doctor, Cronan, was at the bedside, and Princess Tess threw herself on the bed and sobbed quietly when she saw her mother, who could not wake up.

Liam's face was gloomy and he asked, "How's the situation?" ”

Cronan shook his head and replied, "Not good, according to my observations, this should not be a disease, nor is it poisoned, but a kind of magic, a hypnotic magic." ”

"What about the court mages? This should be their domain. Liam asked, frowning.

"Tried, no one could dispel it. They couldn't even confirm if it was magic. Cronan's face was bitter, although he was a top pharmacist and doctor, he didn't know magic. If it was a simple magic illusion, he could still solve it with some physical stimulation and the effect of drugs, but the hypnotic magic on Queen Mia's body was obviously not one of the small tricks he had seen in the past.

Liam was very irritable, that group of court mages enjoyed the royal family's offerings, and their lives were extremely rich, and they asked the kingdom for everything, but when it came to the critical moment, they were so useless!

Liam asked in a deep voice, "What about the solution?" ”

"Find the caster and ask him to unravel the hypnotism, or kill him directly, and the hypnotic effect will be broken directly. If neither," Cronan paused, then continued, "the only way to do this is to find a more powerful caster and have them crack it." ”

Liam was silent for a moment, Gilneth's top mages were all here, and no one could crack the hypnosis. All that's left is to find the caster - but that's not easy!

He was extremely indignant in his heart, why did he attack his relatives? Have the guts to come at him!

"Despicable villain!" Liam gritted his teeth and cursed the spellcaster, staring at Cronan and asking, "Generally speaking, to cast such a spell, what is the range of the caster?" ”

Cronan said: "Ordinary hypnosis basically requires face-to-face contact, and sometimes even to gain the trust of the other party. However, the more powerful the caster, the fewer restrictions there are on hypnosis. I can't give you a definite answer either. But my guess is that this caster's abilities are very powerful! ”

Seeing his mother being hypnotized and unable to do anything about it, Liam was so angry that he shouted: "From now on, the manor is under martial law, and all entry and exit are forbidden!" Find out who has been present in the manor since the queen moved here! Find out the caster! ”

"I'm going to break him to pieces!" He roared, and the maids beside him were silent, they had never seen King Liam so angry.

Cronan was very worried about his state and couldn't help but advise: "King Liam, you look very tired, you should go and rest first!" I'm looking after it here. I will do everything in my power to heal the Queen, I promise! ”

“…… Well, please, Mr. Arontes! Liam bowed to the royal doctor and left his mother's room.

Cronan comforted the weeping Princess Tess a few more words, prescribed her some medicine to calm her feelings, and then instructed the maid to send her away.

After the siblings left, Cronan sighed, scratching his bare head and pulling out a few more strands of hair that were already thinning.

Now that the two siblings were gone, he revealed his true feelings—he had little clue about the hypnotic spells the queen had in place, and God knew when he would be able to develop a drug to wake her up.

But of course, this cannot be said directly to the brothers and sisters of King Liam and Princess Tess. He has served the royal family of Greymane for many years and has long regarded this family as his own. King Jean's death has left him deeply saddened, and it coincides with the great catastrophe of Gilnehs, and he cannot share the king's heart!

――

Irritable and tired, Liam went to his room and slammed the door shut.

These days, his nerves have been tense and he hasn't had a good night's sleep at all. The troubles piled up in front of him made him extremely tired, and he really wanted to lie in bed and sleep directly, only to wake up and find that nothing had happened. How nice it would be that Gilneth didn't suffer a natural disaster and that his father didn't die!

But when he looked up, he really saw his father, Jean Greymane!

He was standing in front of him, dressed exactly the same as he had been when he was separated from him in Gilneth City, and his eyes were still so stern and caring.

"Father? Is that you? Liam thought he was delusional.
