Chapter 153: I am the last beneficiary
Click...... At the corner of the street appeared a group of soldiers, well-dressed in standard steel armor and heavy swords in hand, trotting all the way to where Dia and the others were.
The captain of the soldiers shouted.
"Disperse! None of the people left the street. ”
Hearing this, the faces of the onlookers changed, and they quickly dispersed in a hurry.
"Hurry up, that's Duke Megsold's guards. ”
Barron frowned slightly.
"You go too. He said to Achill, "If you want, go to my house to be a steward in the future, or go to the fortress of Angojebni to help me train my troops." ”
"Marshal, thank you for taking in a useless old man, but," Archer said stubbornly, staring at the guards, "I can't go." ”
"It's an order. Barron said in an unquestioning tone, "Archer Douglas, I order you to go to the fortress of Angojebni at once now, and then find my lieutenant Moore and warn him to beware of the lich. ”
"The cloak I wear now is the flag of Smudessa that the former king took off with his own hands and tied to my father's armor, and no one can be exempt from the flag as if he saw the previous king, and even the new king must maintain respect for the person who wears it, so I don't need to worry about my safety. ”
Achill's face froze slightly.
“...... Yes, marshal. ”
The guards were divided into two columns, guarding both sides of the street, and an old man with a gloomy face walked slowly accompanied by a middle-aged spellcaster.
Dia and Barron stood in the middle of the street, looking at them indifferently. Barron didn't want to attract attention, so the four retinues were dismissed by him after entering the royal city.
"That old man who looks like he's going to die is Mugsold. Barron whispered, "That spellcaster is the wandering mage he recruited. ”
"How is he better than you?"
Dia looked at the caster, and the caster looked at him as well.
"Are there any other legends in the city?"
"Nope. ”
"Then there's nothing to worry about. ”
Mogsold was also asking.
"Jason, is that person a spellcaster?"
"That's right, I feel the fluctuations of magic from him, and the force of nature, he is a druid. ”
"Are you sure you can defeat him?"
Jason smiled dismissively.
"Judging from the strength of his magic power, he is just a guy who has just been promoted to a mid-level druid, as long as he is not in the forest, he doesn't even have a chance to run. ”
The two of them came up to them, and Baron drew his greatsword.
Mogshudder's pupils shrank, and he said in a deep voice: "Barron, do you still want to commit murder in the streets of the royal city!"
"You're as timid as your father. Barron gave him a disdainful look, then threw the broadsword in his hand, and with a snort, the blade plunged into the stone floor, sinking deep into it, leaving the hilt exposed.
"Your Excellency, I am going to the palace now, and I beg you to take this sword to Simon, and tell him that he has been staying at home honestly lately until he met me. ”
"Don't worry, as long as I don't want to die here, no one can kill me. ”
"Good. Dia looked at the hilt of the sword on the ground, the sword was heavy, and it would be very difficult for him to pick it up if he didn't move.
Dia unleashed a slow drop spell on the greatsword, reaching out to grasp the hilt, and the moment he held the hilt, he suddenly realized that this greatsword was also a legendary weapon, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the Erris family was really rich.
"Since he has come with you," said Mogthold, "let me go with you to the king." ”
Barron's eyes narrowed, and he took a decisive step forward, and his powerful momentum suddenly pressed against Megsold.
"Mugsold, what are you to dare to order me. “
Mogshud was forced to retreat by the momentum, and he said angrily: "Barron, this is in the northern royal city! Do you dare to act so unscrupulously in the royal city, and you are not afraid of the king's punishment!"
His face was extremely ugly, and he secretly wondered how Barron could suddenly become so strong, this was completely inconsistent with his previous style of acting, if he had done this earlier, would he have fallen to the point where he is now.
He had wanted to use Barron's ridiculous glory against him, and as long as the glory of Errith was directed at him, he would never dare to act too out of line, but now...... Megthord looked at Dia unkindly.
I'm afraid this is a variable!
Megthord gritted his teeth and said: "Barron, you have to think clearly, if you dare to flout the laws of the royal city and trample on the rules set by the king, even if you have meritorious service to this country, His Majesty the king will never spare you." “
He sneered.
"As the 'great hero' of the kingdom in the past, you are now trampling on the laws of the northern royal city and destroying the hard work left by the first king of Smudsa, is this the glory you are pursuing?
"Me, Megthold, you don't represent anyone, not the entire Northern Kingdom. Barron stared into his eyes and said word by word, "From now on, you'd better put away the little moves in secret, otherwise how your father died, how you will die." “
Megthord's face chilled instantly.
He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, glanced at Dia, and snorted coldly: "Barron, His Majesty the King is already waiting for you. ”
With that, he turned around and left with the people, until he returned home, and Mogsaw looked at Jason respectfully.
"Venerable Lord Dragon, the situation has changed, and persecuting him with glory will only backfire, I want to terminate the original plan first, and directly inform the orcs to attack the fortress of Angojebni, he didn't let go of an orc on the way, then it is just right to deal with him on the charge of colluding with the orcs, and then call Baron's cronies and villagers to testify. “
"It doesn't matter if the others believe it or not, as long as the king says it's true, it's true. Mogsord grimaced and sneered, "That reckless man full of glory would never have thought that there would be someone from me among his trusted cronies." ”
"And the druids around him, which was a destabilizing factor. ”
Jason laughed and said lightly, "Leave it to me, and I'll make him 'very stable'." ”
"Then I'm sorry for you, and ...... that thing?"
Jason glanced at him.
"As long as you are obedient, my master will do what he says, he will help you kill the old soldier and all the royal family, and of course, the king will identify you as the new king of Smudessa before he dies. ”
Megthord's face was overjoyed, and he said, "The treasures of Smudessa belong to your great master. ”
Jason laughed, "The premise is to kill that legendary warrior first, he is the only trouble in the plan." Don't worry, my master doesn't look down on a small country with a low demon plane, and he keeps his promise. “
Mogsold's smile became brighter and brighter, of course he knew that he was just a pawn in the hands of the king to deal with Barron, if he did nothing, then the day Barron died would also be the day he was abandoned by the new king, and with the new king's approach, the new king would definitely choose to kill people, or put all the blame on him and let him go out as a shield, and his final fate can be imagined.
But!
Mogsoldd looked at Jason and thought, "That day will never come, and I will be the last beneficiary."
