The Queen's sudden fall startled the other people present.

For the first time, Benjamin thought that there had been some kind of attack, and scanned back and forth several times with the water elemental sensing method. After confirming that there were no enemies around, and that the king was only stunned and did not vomit blood and collapsed, Benjamin was a little relieved.

Of course, it was the old man who was most panicked.

The moment the queen fell, he almost jumped up from his chair and hurriedly helped the queen up to check the situation. Probably because of the potions, the queen and Ikor's mages were at stake, and mages like him were naturally too nervous.

But...... He's alive.

Benjamin recovered from his stunned moment, realizing what that meant, and squinted his eyes across the table. Sure enough, as he thought, after some examination, the old man's expression seemed to relax a little, not as flustered as he had been at the beginning.

The queen looked like she was going to die, but she wasn't dead.

Benjamin also immediately asked the system to analyze the queen's condition.

She ...... Seems to have eaten something strange?" The system's tone was not very sure, "Anyway, from a more scientific point of view, a substance mixed with elements and toxins wreaked havoc in her circulatory system, making her what she is now. ”

“...... Isn't that poisoning?" replied Benjamin in his mind.

You can understand that too. ”

Benjamin shook his head helplessly.

Returning to reality, the old man seemed to be trying to rescue the queen, while the king sat on the side, confused, not knowing what was going on. Benjamin also had a headache about this situation.

Why did this man fall just in the middle of the negotiation with them?

Obviously has nothing to do with them, but there is a feeling of being inexplicably involved.

Therefore, he looked at the old man and the queen and hesitated to say, "That...... I think she's ......."

"Enough, despicable fellow, is that the curse you have cast on Her Majesty?" However, the old man suddenly interrupted him and glared at him with a pair of eyes, "Don't be delusional, just curse, we will not withdraw our troops casually because of this." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly recited a spell, and a wind swept up and nearly toppled the tent.

Benjamin was a little confused.

What is this? The queen fainted, and had a fart relationship with him?

However, in this case, he can only use his magic first, summoning a blister to protect himself and the king, lest this unreasonable old man do anything out of the ordinary.

Subsequently, he tried to communicate with the other party.

"Please make no mistake Your Excellency, I have not cast any curse on Her Majesty. Besides, she looks more like poisoning, which is very different from a curse. And as you can see, we haven't had any chance of poisoning her since we got here. Someone must have done something to her before we even started negotiating. ”

When the old man heard this, he gradually stopped his magic, but he still looked at Benjamin with extremely hostile eyes.

Seeing this, Benjamin continued: "Don't be impulsive, let me see Her Majesty." Aren't your lives tied to her, and maybe I can save her. ”

The old man glanced at him, and suddenly let out a cold snort, and said, "Don't be coy anymore. His Majesty is ill, and there is no need for this negotiation to continue. We'll see you on the battlefield. ”

With that, he recited the incantation, and an even more violent wind was summoned by him, and the tent they were in was directly overturned. In the midst of the raging winds, the old man and the fainted queen quickly flew away and disappeared in the direction of Ikor Camp.

Only Benjamin and the king were left, standing on the bare ground, looking confused.

"I ...... I think things are weird. ”

After a moment of stunnedness, the king came back to his senses, and his expression was a little indescribable.

Benjamin nodded: "I think too." Whether it was poisoning or something else, the timing of the attack was too coincidental. And with the Queen's level of care, how could someone be plotted?"

Maybe it's because there are too many suspicions, but in his opinion, the whole thing reveals a strange atmosphere.

What the hell is going on?

A lot of speculation popped up in his head, but for a while, he couldn't figure out what to do, so he just kept silent and didn't do anything in this situation.

It's just that the tent has been blown away, and in the open plain, they look a little embarrassed. Behind them, the protection army of Karitus also rushed over in disbelief.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you alright?"

The king turned, nodded, and said, "I'm fine." ”

"That'...... What about Ikor's people? Negotiations are over?"

The king smiled wryly: "It's over." ”

The general was confused.

Benjamin also shook his head at this time and spoke: "Your Majesty, let's go back first." I didn't expect peace talks in the first place, so there's no point in staying here. Besides, if this kind of thing happens, Ikor's ability to continue attacking in a short period of time is also beneficial to us. ”

"That'...... Should we be happy about that?"

Benjamin shrugged: "I don't know, maybe there is a conspiracy, maybe this is just the beginning." Anyway, let's go back and talk about it. ”

When the king heard this, he nodded.

He finally turned his head and glanced in Ikor's direction, a somewhat complicated look. Escorted by both the army and Benjamin, he quickly left the area and set off for Glory.

But what they didn't expect was that before they even arrived at Glory, some strange news had slowly spread.

Quite a few people are saying that after the king and queen met, there was an unpleasant quarrel. Therefore, the king had his mage curse the queen, putting her life in danger.

Hearing the news, Benjamin felt even more incredible.

Where did all this come from?

There have always been a lot of rumors among the people, and he has long been surprised by this. However, they had only been meeting for more than a day, and they were still on their way back to Glori, and the news was already fermenting among the people. If no one is pushing this in secret, Benjamin absolutely does not believe it.

He told the king about the idea, and the king was very much in favor of it.

"This is definitely a planting!" he looked a little angry, "who did it? Could it be that the remnants of the Church are staying in the realm of Caritus?"

Benjamin looked down in thought, unable to answer for the time being.

Because he didn't think very clearly either.

What good can it do to poison the queen and then mislead the murderer into being the king of Carites? To sow discord between the two countries? Now that the war has started, how good can the relationship between the two countries be? Is there any need to provoke it?

And, again, the whole thing is too weird.

He felt there was a conspiracy in it.

"Master Benjamin, what do you think...... Will Scarlett die because of this?" the king asked as he suddenly interrupted Benjamin's thoughts, his tone a little hesitant.

"I don't know. Benjamin came back to his senses and said slowly, "At that time, the queen was probably secretly drugged by someone. The poison seemed to be very powerful, and if none of her mages could save her, maybe she would really die from it. ”

"However, according to the potion effect you mentioned earlier, if she dies, most of the mages of Ikor will die with her. ”

"Yes. Benjamin nodded.

The king took a deep breath, his face a little heavy.

"That'...... We may be preparing for war with the church again. ”
