Mrs. Dunnis's strange behavior of not following the script immediately alerted Nemo, and when Mrs. Dunnis took off the ring, Nemo immediately moved and was about to rush over, but it was still a step too late, and Mrs. Dunnis had already crushed the purple crystal on the ring.

A very dazzling ball of purple light, emanating from the shattered amethyst, instantly enveloped the entire command platform. Everyone on stage, including Nemo and Princess Sophia, as well as the closest people in the audience, had to stop all the movements they were doing and subconsciously raised their hands to block the bright light.

Thankfully, the bright light lasted less than 2 seconds before disappearing, and everyone's vision returned to normal. The bright light did not cause any damage or danger, and everything was normal on and off the stage, except that in front of Mrs. Dunnis, less than 30 centimeters from the brass amplifier, a purple ball of light the size of an apple floated and swirled.

The enhanced magical enchantment placed near the Avengist camp resonated, suggesting that the light was a measurable amount of magic.

"Ma'am, what are your intentions?" Nemo questioned Lady Dunnis.

However, before Mrs. Dunnis could reply, a familiar man's voice came from the purple light.

“...... Haha, I thought this stupid bitter ploy was just a shoddy conspiracy. You think kidnapping the princess will threaten me......"

The sound was transmitted by magic, regardless of distance, so it was heard not only by the people on the stage and the nobles in the front row of the audience, but also by everyone who attended the plenary meeting of 10,000 people. Everyone couldn't help but be surprised, on the one hand, the so-called "kidnapping the princess" in this sentence was too terrifying, and on the other hand, because of the owner of the voice. The people living in the Revenge camp are all too familiar with this voice, because it comes from the man who now holds the highest power in the land, General "Lynx".

"Did I hear me right? General Lynx thinks that Her Royal Highness is not as important as the prisoner in the prison......"

Immediately after, another voice of a strange man came from the purple light cluster.

“...... Even if you kidnap a 'Princess Sophia', it will not affect me, as long as I need to make as many 'Princess Sophia' as I want.

You're kidnapping just a useless impostor. ”

The familiar voice from the "Lynx" general gave the other party a resolute refusal.

This time, not only the nobles in the front row, but the entire 10,000-person plenary meeting exploded. The neat and orderly crowd below began to stir, and people exchanged heads and ears. "No, is Her Royal Highness the Princess fake?" "Is that really what General Lynx said?" ......

"Stop!" Nemo cursed, and he lunged in front of Lady Dunnis, causing the lady to take a few steps back, and then fell to the floor with a thud. The lady's face turned pale, and she looked at Nemo with horror in her eyes.

However, although Mrs. Dunnis left its place, the purple light did not displace or disappear, but continued to rotate in front of the brass amplifier, releasing the sound stored inside.

"Are you so confident that imposters don't work?General Bobcat, you should know that the real Sophia is with us...... When the real thing and the fake come together in front of everyone and confront them on the spot, your lies will be self-defeating......"

“...... You'd better pray that the real princess doesn't show up tomorrow. But it doesn't matter if she doesn't show up, as long as you're still in my hands, it's only a matter of time before I catch her......"

“...... Catch Sophia, what do you want to do, what are you going to do with her?"

“...... Even if the blonde girl was the real Princess Sophia, her heart had been corrupted...... But if she continues to be stubborn, then I will have to make her disappear from the world. ”

By this time, the restless commotion of the crowd had stopped, and everyone was watching Nemo's every move, even if it was not the content of the conversation coming from the purple light, but it was unacceptable for most people to be rude to Lady Dunnis, who had a high reputation.

Nemo also sensed his misconduct, and instead of continuing to do anything to Mrs. Dunnis, he turned around and kicked the brass loudspeaker to pieces.

"Fellow citizens, please do not believe these outrageous lies. That's the enemy's slander on me!" Nemo shouted to the crowd. Then he turned, and said to Mrs. Dunnis, who was sitting on the ground, in as calm a tone as possible, "Madame, you have almost become an accomplice to those hateful enemies. I don't know how the enemy came to you, but I swear that they are only using you to sabotage our great cause of recovering the country, and it must be a conspiracy of the thugs of Duris!"

By this time, Mrs. Dunnis had been frightened, but she still mustered up the courage to insist on her original statement: "I ...... I'm just conveying the words of an old friend. ”

"Sophia is the only bloodline of the former dynasty...... I don't believe you really dare to kill her. ”

Even without the brass megaphone, the sound coming from the purple light cluster was only a little smaller, and because it was transmitted by magic, the sound still reached the ears of everyone present very clearly. At this time, Nemo could no longer care about Mrs. Dunnis, who was sitting on the ground, and in anger, he smashed his fist into the purple light, but for the incorporeal object made of pure energy, the fist passed directly through the purple light like it hit the air, but it could not stop it from continuing to make sounds.

"Why don't you dare? All the people of the Avengers need is a spiritual leader, and what does it matter if that spiritual leader is real or not?"

"Priest, Priest, where are the priests dead?" called Nemo in a loud voice. It was only then that he remembered that the only person who could eliminate the effects of magic was those who had studied magic.

Several priests in the crowd came running in a reluctant manner, but it was too late, as the purple light was shrinking and fading, but still "faithfully" carrying out its mission.

"It is enough for this spiritual leader to be able to direct the way. There is no room for any interference or obstruction in our great cause of recovering the country, not even Sophia herself!"

This sentence from the mouth of the "Lynx" himself became the last sentence released by the purple light cluster, and then before the priests rushed to the stage, the purple light group completely disappeared. At the same time, the resonance of the magical enchantments placed around the camp ceased.

An elderly priest observed the original purple light cluster and reported to Nemo, "General, there is still a small amount of magic left, we should be able to ......"

"Rubbish!" Before the priest could finish speaking, Nee kicked him off the stage. Frightened, the other priests hurriedly took a few steps back.

At this time, the crowd that had been silent for a long time exploded again. Anger, suspicion, horror, panic...... All kinds of negative emotions, with the chaotic noise of more than 10,000 people, were almost all released.

Oh my God!

Those words were really said by the general?

Is Princess Sophia fake?

She's an imposter from the general?

The general wants to kill the real Princess Sophia?

Have we been deceived all along?

Don't be cranky, these voices are fake!

That was a trick by the enemy to frame the general.

But if this is a lie, why should the general be so angry?

......

Hearing all sorts of unfavorable remarks coming from the crowd, Nemo was almost driven insane. He glared viciously at the person who started the incident: Lady Dunnis. Nemo had already had the intention of killing this woman, but he couldn't kill in front of everyone and all the nobles, otherwise there would be no three hundred taels of silver here, and those unfavorable accusations would be completely confirmed. Nemo seized on what little consciousness he had left, struggled to control his emotions, and ordered his own soldiers who were stationed at the table of accusations and were loyal only to himself: "What are you doing? Mrs. Dunnis is tired, take her back to rest." ”

The two guards immediately jumped onto the stage, came to Mrs. Dunnis, picked up the old lady who had been paralyzed by fright, and walked down the stage, but suddenly a shadow flew over, and before Nemo could stop it, there were two screams. The two soldiers were beaten to the bottom of the stage, covered in blood.

I saw Alice clutching a blood-stained Qingfeng dagger and stopping in front of Mrs. Dunnis, posing a defensive posture towards Nemo. "I will personally escort Madame back to rest, you don't need to bother. Alice said coldly.

Nemo was taken aback, he didn't expect Alice to suddenly regain her freedom of movement, he turned his head to look at the place where Alice was sitting, and found the severed shackles and bracelets scattered on the floor, he turned his vision back to the dagger in Alice's hand, and from the sheen of the dagger, it was a sharp weapon that sharpened iron like clay.

Alice relied on this sharp weapon to get rid of the shackles, but the problem was that Alice had been under his surveillance, where did she find this dagger? Could it be that someone secretly passed it to her when the bright light blocked everyone's view just now? Thinking of this, Nemo immediately scanned the people around him.

"Don't look at it, I gave her the knife. A soldier jumped onto the table and stood beside Alice and his wife.

In full view of everyone, the pro-soldier took off his helmet and armor, and saw that he was a thin black young man in dark green clothes, with bandages on his head, and he seemed to be injured, but his eyes were bright.

"Is that you?" Nemo was stunned, and subconsciously took a step back.

This person was none other than Joyka, who had almost severed his neck.

"Don't come unharmed, General Bobcat. Joika greeted Nemo with a smile.

"You thief who should have broken your body to pieces, you let you escape last time, and you dare to come back!"

"Haha, don't say it so ugly. We've known each other for more than a year. I don't really mean anything," Joyka said to Nemo, "just to sell the General a new alchemical product invented by the Snowy Federation: the Echo Stone. ”

"Echo Stone?"

"What shall I say?" Joyka scratched her head exaggeratedly, "Oh, that's what the fat man told me: any sound that hits an object will produce an echo, and if you fix the echo and put it out when you want to hear it, wouldn't life be more interesting? Your Excellency General has already experienced the wonderful use of the Echo Stone just now, how can you have any plans to buy it in bulk?"

Hearing this, Nemo froze for a moment, remembering the scene when Mrs. Dunnis had just pinched out the purple crystal, and remembering the various unreasonableness of the night he had tortured Joyka two days earlier, Nemo gradually understood that he had fallen into a trap.

"How dare you tease me," Nemo snorted, drawing his sword with a "shabu".

The commander's sword was unsheathed, and more than two dozen soldiers in the audience immediately jumped onto the platform, surrounding Alice, Lady Dunnis, and Joyka.
