Chapter 148: Rescue
"According to you, if Clara presides over any awakening consciousness to Li Ling, turn him into a walking corpse who is only willing to obey his own orders and serve himself. Does Li Ling still have to be grateful to her in turn? Bren scoffed.
"Voice, Bren. Even if you're Queen Mia's child, it's best not to spread these strange things openly. Eamon smiled wryly and shook his head. Also, if your so-called awakening ritual really happened. I also think there was no malice in what Clara did. She simply fell in love with Li Ling and wanted to help him and make him stronger. As for Li Ling's willingness to obey His Royal Highness Clara's orders, it was because he wanted to repay His Highness Clara out of his own heart, and it had nothing to do with Clara. ”
"In that case, what are we doing in a hurry, staying and blessing him?!" The more excited Bren became, the more he began to regret that he had not cultivated his own power, and at a critical time, he could only find Li Ling with the help of Emmon's subordinates.
"Of course I'm going to stop this!" Aemon said again. "Clara's actions are not malicious, but that doesn't mean she didn't make mistakes. Because ......" Aemon paused, hesitating to tell Bren the truth.
In Emmon's memory, although Mia and Mai have a lot of grievances, Mia has never forgotten that man, and as the only daughter of Mia and Maien, Mia has always had an extraordinary and inseparable affection for Brien. "If Li Ling will eventually become another self, what kind of blow will Buren endure? And Mia will also be troubled by Bren's pain, right? Emmonn sighed in his heart, but swallowed the half sentence he had just said.
Bren glanced at Emmon and knew that since he had decided no, it would be in vain to ask again, so he had to follow closely behind Eamon, looking forward to seeing Li Ling as soon as possible, or rescuing him from Clara's grasp.
……
Along the way, people in black continued to jump out from all directions, joining the team led by Emon, and when Zheng arrived near the Poison Miasma Mountains, Emon's team already had about half a hundred soldiers.
"My lord, at the foot of the mountain ahead, there is a trace of the activity of the black-armored knight. Presumably Her Highness Clara, they are on that towering mountain! "A man in black who was exploring the way ahead came to report.
"Did you find your way up the mountain? Is there an ambush? Aemon asked.
"The road up the mountain is extremely rough, and there are indeed many knights on guard on the road that must be passed, it looks like they have something important to guard, and if you want to break through, you must have to work hard!"
"That's just going to have to bite the bullet." Aemon waved his hand, and the man in black immediately retreated.
After a short time, Emon and Buren came to the foot of the mountain, and followed the mountain road, and without much effort, Bren found a black-clothed corpse. This is followed by two knightly ......
"Bren, we have to pick up the pace!" A hint of anxiety appeared on Emmon's old countenance, and he staggered to run.
After climbing over a few stone beams and over a steep slope, Aemon and Brun finally spotted the black-clad men and the black-armored knights blocking their way. Both sides seemed to be frozen, and their body movements were extremely uncoordinated.
"Emon, help them!" Bren said anxiously and rushed over first.
A black-armored knight spotted Brun and knew that she was the most important person in the royal city, but with Clara's order, he did not hesitate to press his own forces to keep Bren out of the battle line.
But strangely, Bren didn't suffer any restraint at all, and rushed directly behind a knight who was fighting. He swung his longsword.
The knight's head hit the ground, gurgling a few times, and then tumbling down to the foot of the mountain.
When the knights saw that their companion had been killed by Brun, they pounced on him and tried to capture Brun and give it to Clara.
It's a pity that Ammon has already arrived. He lifted his wizened hands upward.
Bren wielded the sword in his hand, swung the greatsword of one of the black-armored knights, and then sideways to dodge the sneak attack of the other knight, and jumped to the side, ready to chase down the other lone black-armored knight. At this time, she saw that the people who were already moving slowly became even more sluggish.
"Emon!" Bren realizes that this is the work of Advisor Aemon and takes a defensive stance again. Just waiting for these soldiers to be captured.
It was like a breeze blowing through that could not be seen or touched, and the surroundings suddenly fell silent. All Rao movements stopped.
"Hurry up and do it! I won't last much longer with this body! When Aemon saw Bren staring straight at him, he reminded him.
"Know...... Got it! Bren nodded, clenched his sword again, and walked over to one of the black-armored knights.
The knight stood there as if frozen, but his eyes still rolled. He was looking at Bren with hostility. It seemed that as soon as he regained his freedom, he would raise his weapon as soon as possible.
"I'm sorry, Clara's servant!" Bren whispered, and swung his sword without hesitation.
Since the knight didn't do anything to counter the enemy at all, the sword pierced his chest with precision, passing through his heart.
"Puff puff!" There were a few more soft sounds, and the rest of the knights fell to the same fate.
Seeing that Bren had taken up his sword and landed on the ground to deal with all the knights here, Eamon relieved himself unloaded his strength, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to rush towards the top of the mountain.
There were no guards on the top of the mountain. At a glance, everyone saw the crowd gathered not far away.
The people were all gathered tightly together, forming a circle of three circles inside and three circles outside, and it was impossible to see what was in the middle, only a trace of white vapor evaporated from it.
"Her Highness Clara! I am ordered by the queen to take Li Ling back! Aemon shouted to the crowd in the distance.
It was quiet on the top of the mountain, but this shout immediately attracted the attention of the crowd gathered around. But no one came up to greet Aemon and Buren, which was clearly contrary to common sense.
Aemon and Bren glanced at each other, and strode toward the crowd.
The crowd stirred for a moment, and the outermost knights immediately separated from the crowd and rushed towards Aemon and Bren with their swords like emotionless machines.
