Chapter 641: Liberating the Mage Guild
As soon as these words came out, almost all the mages had stunned looks on their faces.
"Dismiss...... Potions?"
Of course, they understood what the president meant. But didn't all of the potions they drank when they joined the congregation say that there could be no cure? Not all of them were loyal to the Queen, and some of them tried to crack it secretly, but in the end nothing came of it.
Because of this, most people almost don't think about antidotes anymore.
"Whatever he takes, don't ......drink it," the prime minister was so embarrassed that he opened his mouth to persuade him, but his voice was completely drowned out by the chairman's magically amplified voice.
"Actually, in the beginning, the potion that Her Majesty gave you to drink had an antidote. "The Mage Guild is Ikor's life, and it is an absolutely indispensable existence. And drinking potions is really just a sign of determination, and Her Majesty will never want you to be buried with you. Therefore, in order to prevent this situation from happening in front of me, His Majesty has long prepared an antidote and entrusted it to me in secret!"
At this juncture, the chairman's identity is basically what he says. And the reason he made up this time will not find anything wrong in the ears of the mages for a while.
There were even people who showed a blank look.
- That's right, there is an antidote, how can Her Majesty not be prepared at all?
After all, their own lives are involved, and the minds of the mages are definitely not so simple. They weren't fools, and the spirit of potions made it impossible for them to disobey the Queen's orders, but that didn't mean they wouldn't have other dissenting intentions in their hearts.
And if the queen really fell into the hands of the church, would they want to give the queen a funeral?
So, in this case, when they suddenly heard that there was a way to remove the potion, everyone was in good spirits, just like a person hanging on the edge of a cliff who suddenly found a big rock under his feet.
"Grown! Hurry! No one knows when Her Majesty might be killed!" someone even urged anxiously.
Seeing this, the president glanced at Benjamin and nodded.
...... The moment has finally come.
"Don't worry, I'll bring those prepared antidotes now!" said the president, turning to a servant in the corner. The servant, who had been theirs, nodded, and hurried in the other direction of the palace.
Soon, one after another, large boxes were moved to people's eyes.
The leader recited the incantation, and the wind blew the lid open, revealing the inside of the box densely packed with vials of brown potion. The surrounding mages hesitated around the potions for a while, and soon, someone took the initiative to step forward, pick up a bottle, and drink it in one gulp.
- This is the trust that the president prepared before he arrived.
The ingredients of the antidote only have an effect on the queen's potion, and those who have already lifted the control will not have any reaction when they drink the medicine, so they can act as they please. And the others, driven by them, no longer hesitated, for fear that the queen would be killed by the church in this second, and they would not have time to drink the antidote, so they followed.
In this situation, the prime minister and the palace guards could not do anything.
Obviously, in order to be able to sneak attack the academy, the queen brought most of her closest forces over, so the palace at the moment is very empty, and it has been completely controlled by the president, and no one can resist them at all.
After drinking the antidote, the mages present suddenly covered their foreheads and fell to the ground one by one.
"This is ......," a mage looked puzzled.
"Don't worry, it's the antidote at work and they'll recover soon. β
The remaining mages who had not had time to drink the potion hesitated for a moment, but after checking the condition of the fainted mages and confirming that they were all right, the remaining mages did not hesitate and drank the antidote one after another.
Eventually, ten minutes passed. Thousands of people fell in the entire hall, and the only ones still standing were the president and the mages he had brought.
The president also breathed a sigh of relief.
...... It worked.
After many years of preparation, it finally worked on this day. Now that the wood is in the boat, and the mages are free, even if the queen rushes back now, nothing will change.
Perhaps when these mages wake up, they will be angry at the deception, and even lead to the dissolution of the entire guild eventually. But...... So what? The president doesn't care about being infamy, and this so-called mage's guild should have been disbanded a long time ago.
In short, he didn't know what would become of Ikor in the future. However, the debt he owed because of his gullibility in the queen has now finally been paid off.
β...... You'll regret it. β
The surroundings finally quieted down, and the prime minister had a chance to speak. But at this moment, he could only look at Benjamin in despair, silent for a long time, and finally said such a sentence.
Benjamin let out a cold snort.
"You're a close confidant of the Queen, you should know her plan to attack the Academy, right?" he said, looking at the Prime Minister condescendingly, "how many people did she bring, what tactics did she have, what cards did she have? You'd better tell me all now." β
When the chairman on the side heard this, his expression was a little surprised.
β...... Your Majesty has led people to attack the Academy of Magic?"
- has been acting with Benjamin for so long, and as a result, he only now knows what the real situation is.
Benjamin nodded.
"Sure enough...... Ever since the death of the first king, she has become like this, always wanting to hold more things in her hands. The president sighed and said, "How is the situation, do you need me to send someone to help you?"
Benjamin shook his head and said, "Not for the time being, I'm going to have a good trial of this guy first." β
After saying that, his eyes fell on the prime minister again.
As a close confidant of the Queen, this guy must know a lot. Instead of rushing back now, it is better to get more information and be prepared.
β...... You dream. The prime minister said coldly, "Give up, I don't know anything, you can't ask anything from my mouth." β
"Really?"
Benjamin suddenly smiled.
At that moment, the prime minister's body shook involuntarily.
Just as Benjamin was about to find a room for torture, suddenly, the sound transmission wood in his pocket once again emitted magical fluctuations. Suddenly, Benjamin was stunned, walked to the corner, and took out the wood chips.
This time, however, it wasn't the sound he had expected.
"Benjamin Reese, you're still in Regina, I advise you not to act rashly, or I'll make you pay the priceβvery, very dearly. β
The Queen's voice came slowly from the wood chips like a gloomy witch, and Benjamin suddenly clenched his fists when he heard it.
