Chapter 173: A New Choice (1)
Early the next morning, Mars and Cook led the mercenaries of the second detachment of 1643 to return to Snell Harbor by sea ship with the Thunder Slime. They came here with swords and courage, and returned with honor and gold. What's more, Alcatraz, which sank to the bottom of the sea, has since had a strong heart.
The hustle and bustle of the harbor could not reach Cheberkeley's ears, and he was sitting in his cell, looking out of his small boxy window.
Outside, there is a rare clear sky, and free birds flap their wings and enjoy the unrestrained air. Even the new moss on the ground seemed to glow in the bright sun.
"You're dead soon!" said Cheberkeley, staring at the sun-basking moss.
Under Kuruma's conspiracy, all the commanders of the four major legions were killed. Cheberkeley took advantage of the situation, and he still can't forget the scene when he rushed into the main hall with his armor and sword, and cut off the heads of Kuruma's henchmen with a sword in front of all the officials.
The hundred officials surrendered and knelt on the ground in unison.
That moment was the highlight of Cheberkeley's life.
Victory came so suddenly, and so quickly.
The four legions were in disarray, and Cheberkeley's words fell on deaf ears, and when Cheberkeley realized that he had no binding power on the rebels, he began to regret it.
When the Colossus of the Sun God, which he presided over, actually spoke, defining all those who attacked the people with swords in their hands as rebels, he sweated profusely - controlling the center as fast as possible, and using the prestige of quelling the Kuruma rebellion to suppress the other forces would not work!
In terms of the ability to control the situation, in terms of prestige, and in terms of connections, he is far inferior to Kuruma.
Oh no, you should take down the pseudo-prince arranged by Kuruma and force him to come forward!
The matter was irreparable, and as the mass teleportation array inside the Giant Statue lit up, the real Prince Atavar appeared with the black-clad and black-armored Tenotiran army, and Cheberkli fell to his knees without any resistance. He ordered his men to surrender to the prince and help stabilize order in the city.
The conspiracy behind the conspiracy has been put to rest.
He was then thrown into a cell where he was held for a whole week. He waited for death in a desperate calm.
The new king has just ascended the throne, and he has a lot of things to do, and he has no time to care about himself, a failed and insignificant little person, and when he thinks of himself, it will be his own death.
What kind of evil did I fall for, why, why did I do such a stupid thing and put my whole net worth and my life on the line!
Heavy footsteps were heard outside the door, and the heavily armored guard walked up to the door and opened it.
The blinding sunlight dispelled the shadow that had cast over Cheberkeley's face, and he took a few timid steps back.
"Prisoner Che Berkeley, it's time, let's go. One of the guards said in a rough voice.
Heh, is it finally here......? Let's go.
Cheberkeley stood up with his hands on his knees: "Execute the prisoner, there should be a good meal at the end, right?"
"A rebellious deserves it?" the guard smiled contemptuously, "let's go." ”
Hmph, the warden in front hasn't spoken yet, and a small soldier dares to chirp, and sooner or later he will lose his head!
The thin warden, with his face covered in black iron armor and unable to see his expression, turned around and hooked his fingers and walked out the door. The two guards behind him, one on the left and one on the right, set up Cheberkeley and dragged him out of the cell.
The sun shone on the four of them, and Cheberkeley's eyes somewhat adjusted to some light, his mind went blank, and his eyes were mechanically fixed on the warden's back.
Unexpectedly, several long, jade-colored green hairs hung down from the back of the warden's helmet.
Green hair, it's rare...... Green hair?
Cheberkeley suddenly remembered that magical morning, the quiet forest, the terrible strange insects, and the beautiful maiden.
What is the origin of everything?Bailiana, how is she now?Is she still living in the jungle with her brothers and sisters?I envy these hermits.
I'm sorry, I can't go back and marry you. Originally, I wanted to give you a beautiful and happy life as the king of Atlas, but now it seems that I can only wait for you at the sun god.
Cheberkeley was stuffed into a carriage, the driver of which was also a heavily armored guard, and the cart slowly started and drove towards the execution ground.
The warden looked at Cheberkeley several times, and Cheberkeley sat in silence.
The black curtain was around the car, it was very stuffy, and there was not even a decoration on the outside of the car, this was a secret execution, right?
Speaking of which, my Majesty and I are still cousins, this kind of thing is not good after all—hehe, cousin, how I understand you. When the execution is carried out in a while, you must give me a good time.
A strange idea suddenly crept into Cheberkeley's mind, if he was lucky enough to succeed, would he leave his cousin a way out?
He smiled wryly and shook his head, impossible. I thought about things too simply, and with my own ability, I couldn't do such a big thing as plotting to usurp the throne, and now, it's too late to say anything.
Forget it, who hasn't died? Forgive me, Bailiana, I can't go back to you, I didn't seize the "opportunity" to create all possibilities.
Cheberkeley couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
A guard next to him smiled and said, "Look at you like this, I knew this was the case, why did you take the wrong path in the first place?"
Cheberkeley smiled slightly, and that smile told the guard unmistakably: Brother's mental journey, you inferior people will not understand. But he endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back, and replied: "It's you who took the wrong path - what is this going to the execution ground? If you go again, you'll be out of Dallas!"
"Because it's meant to be out of Dallas. ”
The voice froze Cheberkeley. Then, as he stared blankly, the warden sitting beside him took off his helmet, revealing a long emerald hair and a delicate face, which was exactly what he had thought of day and night.
"Kashiwa...... Beryana?"
Cheberkeley almost thought he was dreaming, his mind went blank.
Belliana hugged him and began to cry, afraid that the cry would reach outside the car, so she could only try her best to suppress her voice. Cheberkeley also hugged her hard: "Thank you, the sun god, so that I can see you in my dreams." God, let this dream grow a little longer!"
"He's stupid, Belliana, forget it, it's too hard for you to marry a fool. ”
The two guards, one on the left and one on the right, took off their helmets with a smile, and it turned out to be Julius and Dalmont, who they hadn't seen for a long time!
"Oh my God, I'm really not dreaming?"
Dalmont laughed, "Driver, Tabrich, come in?"
Cheberkeley felt that he had been struck by a great sense of happiness, and shook his hand again and again: "No, no, no, no, let's go quickly—how do you know me...... Understood, it must be Sister Belle's prophecy!"
Julius said: "The rebellion here has just been quelled, and there are loopholes in the guards, so we took advantage of the loopholes to enter. Now, our purpose is the town of Inesque, where we can change ships and go by sea to the kingdom of Doland, where you can start a new life. ”
Cheberkeley was grateful: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"Don't be busy thanking for that, then then. ”
Dalmont tossed something heavy, and Cheberkeley picked it up and saw that it was the Thunderbolt Bracer she had given him when she left Beriana.
"It's ......"
"If you meet the enemy at any time, you will not be killed. Don't hold back. ”
Cheberkeley gritted his teeth: "I won't make a second mistake!"
Before he could finish speaking, Tabrich shouted in front of him, "We're in trouble, patrol." ”
Julius pressed Cheberkeley's hand: "I'll come." As he spoke, he pulled open the door and jumped out of the car.
I only heard an exclamation outside: "Lord Yupanki?" and then the sound of clothes and armor rubbing and bowing.
Julius said calmly: "On the orders of His Majesty, I am on a special mission - Your Majesty's warrant is here. ”
Cheberkeley's eyes widened in the carriage: "You pretend to be the founding father and forge the king's warrant?"
Dalmont scoffed, "Atlas's anti-counterfeiting technology? ”
While the two were talking, Julius came in: "Settled, let's go." ”
The carriage was like a fish that had left the net, leaving the patrol and leaving the city of Dallas.
The flat road began to get bumpy and bumpy, and in the carriage, Cheberkeley and Belliana hugged each other tightly, and nothing seemed to separate them. Beryana only wept and did not speak.
Suddenly, the car stopped again, and Tabrich exclaimed, "Oh no, there are enemies!"
Dalmont snorted coldly, "What are you afraid of?"
"Yes, it's King Atavar himself!"
"What?"
Cheberkeley was taken aback, and Belliana's face turned pale.
The final test has arrived.
