Chapter 30: A New Leader
readx;? Late at night. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
As peaceful as ever, it was as if the chaos and bloody battles of the afternoon no longer existed.
The Avenger camp slept in peace.
When Joyka appeared in front of the battle with General Lynx, who was tied up like a dumpling, the morale of the die-hards was devastated. Their hearts are broken, many choose to surrender wisely, some stay where they are and don't know what to do, some turn and run away, and of course, there are those who choose to resist to the end, but this hopeless resistance is weak.
In short, this civil unrest quickly subsided.
The very strict militarized life for a long time has enabled these remnants of the country to develop a strong psychological quality and the tenacity to face adversity positively. Even after this bloody civil strife, their lives have not deviated much from the original track.
In fact, there is another very important reason why the Regent camp was able to restore order quickly after the war.
Before today's operation began, Sophia had already spread the "stigma" divine power that was not detected by the magical enchantment arranged around the camp to the sky above the entire camp, forming another invisible enchantment, which specifically worked on the hearts of all living people within the enchantment, maintaining the minimum heartbeat of life, so that even if these people were seriously injured, they would not die quickly.
After the battle, Sophia teamed up with Cassius to integrate the healing magic of the light system into the water magic, and a rain of healing rain was rained, and all the wounded were healed, and what was even more amazing was that many soldiers or civilians who had thought they had died in the war were also "resurrected" one by one - although strictly speaking, they did not die at all.
Of course, some unfortunate people who have been directly attacked by fatal attacks, such as those whose heads have been cut off or whose hearts have been completely destroyed, will never be able to "live" again, and the miracle will not befall the dozen or so die-hard soldiers who were burned to charcoal by the "Divine Fire Shooting Spear".
In any case, it is an indisputable fact that Sophia saved more than 94% of the dead and wounded, which gave her an excellent image among the revengers, and Sophia's heroic performance in the battle was in stark contrast to the previous "princess" who would only hide behind the "Lynx" general.
If a leader is really needed, for these wandering people who have fallen to the country, what is needed is a strong and powerful leader to rely on, rather than a poor puppet who will only cry and simmer his affection. At the invitation of the nobles, Sophia did not hypocritically refuse, but agreed to serve as the new leader of the restorer.
This somewhat surprised Alice. Because it wasn't a decision she knew Princess Sophia would make. In fact, if she had come to the Avenger Camp for the first time more than a year ago, Sophia would have refused and tried to escape, because she thought that she had no leadership at all, she didn't have enough self-confidence to do well, and more importantly, she didn't want to be superior to others.
However, today, Sophia, after experiencing so many life and death clutches, somewhat understands what she should bear, if she becomes this leader, if more people can survive than if she refuses, then she must do it;
A new leader has been born, and the old leader, or the puppet leader, has been revealed by the time she is brought before the crowd.
According to the fake princess's public confession, her real name is Linda, and she was originally just an opera troupe actress, and it was General "Lynx" who paid her to play a princess in the Revenge camp. Linda originally thought that she was just coming to perform for a few hours, but she didn't expect that she would not be able to leave after coming, and the bid of "Lynx" was extremely high, so Linda had to continue to do it, and this scene was performed for these months.
If it weren't for Linda, the fake princess, the Revengers would not have been deceived by the "Lynx", and there would have been no subsequent two civil wars and killings. There were quite a few indignant people who demanded that the fake princess be executed immediately, which frightened Linda into going limp on the spot. She swore that she had only accepted the employment of the "Lynx" to make money, and in fact she had been caught because the money she had been given as a reward was too heavy to hinder her action, and she had never done anything evil, hoping that she would be spared a way to live.
Despite growing calls for her execution, from nobles to commoners, Sophia eventually defied the crowd and left the girl posing as her own life. Sophia's reasoning is simple: Linda is a very important witness and must live.
Although it was no longer of much significance to find more evidence to prove the Lynx's guilt by this time, Sophia further established her prestige by establishing herself as an assertive new leader through her efforts during the Council of Nobles.
As for the die-hards involved in the "Lynx" case, including the three nobles who completely defected to the "Lynx", Sophia also insisted that it was up to her to decide how to deal with it, after all, many of these prisoners were seriously injured by her, and she had every right to deal with her own prisoners of war. Sophia isolated the rebels, who were only loyal to the Lynx, and while she didn't know what fate awaited them, she could at least confirm that none of them were in danger until Sophia made a final decision on how to deal with them.
And for the person who started all this, it is the most tricky thing, which is why at this point, Sophia can't sleep yet. She was standing at the door of the black hole in the prison in the middle of the lake. Since Joika was injured and had a new injury, Cassius had almost exhausted all his magic, and both of them had fallen asleep early, so at this time, there was only Alice who was with Sophia.
Alice hesitated to face the gloomy prison gate, the cold marble building evoked nightmares that she could never get rid of.
"Alice, your body hasn't recovered yet, go back and rest first, I'll do it alone. Sophia intimately persuaded her close friend. She knew that Alice's physical exhaustion at this time was no less than that of Joyka and Cassius, who were lying asleep in bed.
"No, this lynx is extremely cunning, and only I have the most experience in dealing with him. Alice refuses Sophia's advice.
She knew that Sophia was holding on just like she was at this time, and the more this time, the more she couldn't allow anything to go wrong.
"Okay. Knowing that she couldn't persuade Alice, Sophia didn't insist anymore. She took Alice's hand encouragingly, and the two of them walked inside the prison gate together.
Ironically, the cell where Nemo "Lynx" was held was the same one where Alice had lived for several months. The cell had been empty for only a day, and some of Alice's scent still remained.
Since Sophia healed Nemo's men, she would naturally heal his own wounds as well. Mo's tendons and hamstrings, which were broken by Joyka, had been reconnected at this time, but the nerves in his hands and feet were not yet fully connected, so Nemo's hands and feet were able to move, but they were already weak and could no longer pose a threat to Sophia. But even so, his hands and feet were still heavily shackled.
"Win and lose. If you've already won, why did you bother to come here?"
Nemo, the "bobcat" general locked in a prison cell, has lost his former arrogance and domineering, and between his messy hair, he can only see sadness and relief.
"In the same room, there is never a winner. ”
"Don't tell me, little girl, do what you have to do. If you're just trying to laugh at me, it will only make me more disappointed in you. ”
"Nope. I will not preach you, nor will I laugh at you. I just want to ask you one thing. ”
"Just ask. But I may not answer you. ”
It didn't seem to meet with the fierce resistance she expected, which surprised Sophia a little, which was a good thing, at least she didn't have to put too much effort into communicating with the other party. Sophia took a deep breath
"Who's behind you?"
