Naturally, it couldn't be as Al imagined, although its character was already very rare and outstanding in the eyes of the Children of the Abyss. But in fact, the main reason for the rapid subsidence of the hostage-taking incident was precisely because of the poor character of Ben, the deputy leader of the adventurers......

Sixteen adventurers, including the two leaders, were naturally not monolithic. As leaders, Ogle and Ben have long been accustomed to all kinds of methods of wooing and beating their subordinates, and naturally there are so-called cronies and ordinary minions among these people. And when Hiro, who was the last to join, heard the captain of the guard ask them to hand over Lily, he realized that things were not as simple as he knew, just an egg. In other words, the two leaders concealed their crimes from themselves, and did not disclose the true risks and rewards of the trip. Knowing that he wasn't alone, Hiro locked up a companion he considered to be relatively reliable while Ben was holding the werewolf boy hostage to confront Al.

"What the hell happened last night?" Hero whispered in Newman's ear, but the other man just gave him a dark, complicated look and didn't speak.

"You've got to show me how bad things really are, this is their town!Their ship! Do you really think Ben can save himself by capturing a werewolf? that werewolf isn't even a native of Andrari!!" Hero looked furious, "Ogle and Ben never consulted us before deciding what to do, and we have to bear the consequences for them!" Ogle has already escaped from this ship, and there might have been a chance, but do you think we can escape from these elven rangers even if we can escape to the other side!?"

"He's only going to use us as bait to delay the guards at critical moments!" said what Newman feared the most.

"Ogle and Ben killed a goblin and a goblin last night......"

Hiro suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and the strength of the young adventurer's fist increased a little more, "Just to keep the secret of the egg!?"

"Yes. ”

Hiro had already figured out at this time, even if there was only a glimmer of hope that he could be rescued, a guy like Ben would not hesitate to stab his companion in the back! There is not much difference between a stranger and a companion for such a villain! In order to avoid being bitten by such a mad dog, Hiro decided to hold the only bit of initiative he had.

"This town has thousands of guards, even if we escape to the other side, we will have to travel for most of the day to really get out of the forest, this is the home of the elves, we don't have any chance!"

"So what are we going to do?" said Newman's expression was ugly.

"Take the initiative to confess your guilt and hand over the evil head!" Hiro quietly drew his short sword, staring closely behind his back at Ben's right hand holding the knife against the hostage......

......

"Because this innocent bastard's resistance is beyond your expectations, so you just killed him in a hurry!?" Andre Howe did not hide the suspicion in his own eyes.

"Yes, sir. Hiro, who was half-kneeling on the ground with his hands tied, replied calmly.

Things turned out like this because of the chaos of the moment, but as a local lord, someone naturally had to think more about some other possibilities.

The Children of the Abyss beckoned to Kassandra behind her, and then did not lower his voice, "Interrogate them separately for a while, to prevent them from colluding to blame the dead for all the blame." ”

"Yes! The snake demon and the captain of the guard spoke in unison.

At this time, the ranger, who was cleaning up the scene on the ship, also found a white porcelain wine bottle that seemed to be well sealed from the hidden corner of the cabin. Al took the bottle and carefully opened the wax seal, slowly pouring the mellow aroma of the wine to the ground, and a little goblin with dazzling blue hair flowed with the wine to the hand of the captain of the guard. The quiet water goblin's body was soaked slightly white, and her cheeks were flushed with disobedience.

Several of the more daring suspects craned their necks curiously, some of them who, like Hiro, did not know anything about goblins and goblins.

"Thank you for your ignorance and the kindness of the Goddess, if it weren't for the Goddess protecting her people, you scoundrels would have spent the rest of your lives in Andrari's prison!" a ranger guard vented his anger in words, disgusted by the villains who dared to hurt others for the sake of a little profit.

Just when the suspect with a slightly flexible brain was still pondering the meaning behind this sentence, the goblins scattered around waiting for news from their companions all cried and cried at this time, and Hiro quietly looked at these strange lives that were still laughing and laughing yesterday, with complicated eyes. The elves surrounded the captain of the guard and Lily in his palms, and a green glow peeked through the gaps between the elves......

"Ahem, ahem......"

The gathered goblins dispersed, and the young human adventurer saw the blue-haired goblin in the palm of the guard captain's hand spit out "a few drops" of mellow wine, and with a violent cough, the weak goblin slowly opened his eyes.

"She's not dead! she's not dead!" "This can't be!" shouted several humans in shock as they watched the goblin lose its breath.

"Shut up, be quiet, dregs!" the ranger in charge of the guard struck the exclamators on the heads with the wooden quiver in his hand.

Hiro stared at his eyes stupidly...... His knowledge of Andrari's laws was very limited, but the guard's words reminded him that homicide and attempted murder might be two completely different concepts in this town.

“...... Guys?" Lily, who had just woken up, still looked a little dazed, "...... What about Kinnos!?"

The young temple guard's face was full of guilt, and Arret, who walked to Al's side, gently touched the little goblin's delicate doll-like palm with his fingers, "Lord Enriel and Mr. Judien have announced after discussion that Kinnos is out of danger, although his current state needs to be further verified......

"Really? That's great...... Hiccup......"

"Lily, are you feeling better now?" Manna knelt on Al's hand, her forehead pressed against her companion's face.

"Thank you Mana, I think I might just be a little drunk......"

......

"Ma'am, I have confessed to you all I know, and I just want to know how the hurt leprechaun escaped this. Hiro looked at the snake demon inquisitor with a sincere face.

"What if you know, can you avoid the same mistake next time?" said Kassandra, with a look of disgust.

"Ma'am, I believe you have understood from Lily and my companion's description that I was not involved in the evil deeds of the time......"

"And then?" the young snake demon interrupted the other party very rudely.

"I'm just curious......"

Curious? Kassandra smiled nonchalantly, her eyes fixed on the two druid-issued medical certificates in her hands—

When Lily felt suffocated, she decisively adjusted the normal operation of her flesh and blood, and instead used her life magic to maintain her body, and both her body and the source of magic went into hibernation...... This was thanks to the fact that the inn rooms were equipped with enough kettles, and if there was a fireplace in the bedroom, like the northern dwarves, the snake demon's pretty eyebrows twisted into a ball at the thought of similar consequences.

As for Kinnos, the snake demon is even more incomprehensible.

According to the diagnosis, it may be that the bleeding state of Kinnos at that time is somewhat similar to the red liquid secreted by the demon's body before the advancement, and the blood pool also mistakes the highly activated and constantly generated magic in the goblin's body as the overflowing state of the demonic power before the demon advance. As a result, the blood pool that "waited for the opportunity" habitually regarded the goblin as a cowardly demon seeking the help of the blood pool in the advancement...... At the end of the diagnosis, there is a note from Lucian, the temple guard:

Kinnos's will to survive is very strong, even if he enters the state of shock, the dragon breath technique still maintains a high level of activity, he should not die, as a warrior, he has long had the qualification and glory to accept the bloodline inheritance of our demons!

Yes, compared to Lily, who is in danger, Kinnos's state at this time is even more delicate. Kassandra knew that the little goblin, who was obsessed with the power of the flesh, had made a transposition of Kinnos through the methods taught by Her Highness...... For the undead featherweight champion, this may just be the beginning of a blessing in disguise.

Although it was beyond everyone's expectations, the place that was still in the dark temple at this time had indeed turned into a thing similar to the cocoon of the demon race's advancement.

......

By the time Andrei and his inquisitors had recorded the confessions of all the suspects, the Children of the Abyss received two pieces of news that made him curse in a low voice—the thief leader Ogle had escaped, and the ranger in charge of the pursuit was nearly injured.

In addition, in the sixth round of the heavyweight championship, Passas, who was cornered by Marcel, launched a Jedi counterattack in a difficult situation, directly knocked out the opponent who was in absolute control at the time, and finally won the crown of the annual champion.

"What the hell is going on?" the experience of the Children of the Abyss tells him that if his shrewd squire Livia brings up the heavyweight championship at this time, it means that this event must have a very special meaning.

At the beginning of the sixth inning, Passas was disarmed by his opponent for a bold error. However, just as Marcel was about to take a big lead at the end of the sixth game, Passas broke through Marcel's defense with a hook, knocking him down on the spot and turning the tide of the battle. ”

"Stride hook punch straight knockout, Marcel also made such a big mistake!?"

Since it is a heavy blow, the action of the force must be very large - accompanied by sprinting, stride, waist twisting, shoulder pressure and punching. As an opponent who can play closely with Passas in the first few games, Marcel should be properly prepared against such an attack.

"Not really, Your Highness. Livia's expression was a little subtle, "In a general sense, Marcel didn't make a mistake at that time. ”

"Then how could he be crushed by an opponent who was originally evenly matched but lost his weapon in one blow while holding a competitive fir weapon?"

"Marcel's weapon was directly cut off by Passas's full force in the process of parrying......"

"Broken wrist?" Andre reimagined the situation, Passas stride and swing, Marcel blocking his wrist with a wooden knife.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

However, while the wooden weapons used in the competition simulation are wrapped in a gum cushion to mitigate damage to both sides in the ring, the good wood itself is very tough.

“...... At that moment, Passas was not alone, and Casena was with him?" the Son of the Abyss tried to spit in a way that no one could understand.

"Yes, Your Highness. That's where it counts – Passas's punch, like Ms. Casena's stunning debut in the ring, seems to unleash the kind of power you've been chasing lately, beyond the limits of your physical body!"
