Chapter 683: Impostor
"Count Raymond was seriously injured after being stabbed, and his consciousness is still very vague?"
Hai Dai asked in disbelief, "It is rumored that it is not the Earl, but he was slightly injured in the assassination. ”
Belum lowered his head in shame and said: "I'm sorry Your Royal Highness, the news that the earl was seriously injured and fell into a coma is likely to have a bad impact on the entire territory, in order to prevent the people from the eldest prince's faction from taking the opportunity to make trouble, so I just spread the word that the earl was only slightly injured." ”
"I understand┉┉Then what happened to the disappearance of the Earl's son?" Haidai nodded in understanding.
"I don't know much about the news of Young Master Patel's disappearance, according to the guard's report, it seems that after the assassination, Young Master Patel didn't know why he suddenly led a few cronies to leave the lord's mansion overnight, because the lord's mansion had just experienced an assassination incident and was very chaotic, so I couldn't notice Young Master Patel's departure in time, and I don't know what the reason for the young master's departure. ”
Belum sighed, Haydai knew very well that Belum was Count Raymond's playmate since childhood, and it could be said that he was the Earl's confidant, and when he met Count Raymond himself, the Count even said that even if Belum put a sword on his neck, he would not believe that Belum would betray.
Haydai didn't have time to think about Partel's situation now, and the first thing was to make the Count feel better: "How is Count Raymond doing now?"
"The Assassin smeared poison on the dagger when assassinating the Count, and after repelling the Assassin, the Count fell into a coma and his body continued to weaken, and many doctors in the Lord's Mansion used many kinds of antidotes to no avail, until someone found a pharmacist who finally removed some of the poison and brought the Count to his senses. However, according to the apothecary, the poisons used by the assassins were very strange, and it took time to find out the ingredients of these poisons, and the only thing that could be done now was to keep the toxins from continuing to spread in the Count's body. ”
After explaining the general situation, Belum thought for a moment and added, "According to the pharmacist. In order to directly remove the toxin from the earl's body, at least a master-level antidote is required, but now it will take at least a week for the master-level antidote to be transported from the royal capital, and it is not certain whether the royal capital still has this kind of elixir. ”
Speaking of this, Belum sighed, in this era when grandmasters can be counted by hand, there are not many master-level pharmacists, and all kinds of potions prepared by masters every year are in demand in any region of the mainland. Even there are only two masters in the royal capital of Zegus, and the potions they concoct will be bought in an instant almost as soon as they are on the market.
At this moment, something suddenly appeared in Caludia's hand: "There is no master-level antidote, I have a grandmaster-level here, can I use it?"
"Ha~"
The eldest knight, who was over forty years old, jumped his eyelids, and looked at the man in the golden armor behind Hai Dai with a hint of inexplicable meaning as if he hadn't reacted.
"It says Grandmaster-level antidote, not Master-level, can this work?" Caludiayu gestured to the bottle in his hand, as if he was still a little uncertain.
Perenlius glanced at the bottle in Caludia's hand. Then he nodded to the surprised Hai Dai and indicated that it was indeed a genuine grandmaster-level antidote, and it seemed to be very pure. Belum was overjoyed and gave a knightly salute to Caludia, and after taking the potion, he invited everyone to visit the Count in a secret chamber in the mansion where he was recuperating from his wounds.
Luhaidai saluted Caludia and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency Caludea, and I will definitely repay your kindness on behalf of the Zegus Kingdom afterwards." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a bottle of medicine~"
Caludia smiled indifferently, it seemed that the precious bottle of grandmaster-level antidote was just like an ordinary bottle of healing potion, but Haidai was so hearty and arrogant that Kaludia didn't know what to say, and a bottle of grandmaster-level antidote was at least five or six hundred thousand miles in the market outside. And it is often unmarketable, and if it is auctioned for millions of lions, it will be sold.
After disarming the protective circle. In the inner room, Hai Dai saw Count Raymond lying on the bed, to Hai Dai's surprise was that Count Raymond's hair turned all gray, you must know that although Count Raymond is also over fifty years old, but in the Kingdom of Zegus is also an old and strong general, in the last month he also participated in the hunting competition held by the royal family in high spirits, and now the Count of Raymond in front of him seems to be twenty years old in an instant. Like a dying old man, those godly eyes were full of faint looks.
"Your Excellency Belum, I said that the Count needs to recuperate in peace now. ”
In addition to the two maids in the room, there was also a lean middle-aged man, who saw Belum coming, and the lean man who smelled of herbs came over and reprimanded him unhappily.
"Sorry master~ I'm going to introduce it to you. This is Her Royal Highness Princess Haidai Karena of the Kingdom of Zegus. Instead of arguing, Belum immediately introduced the pharmacist to the comer.
As soon as he heard Hai Dai's name, a trace of surprise flashed in the pharmacist's eyes, and then he hurriedly saluted with some trepidation: "This ┉┉ is really rude, Her Royal Highness the Princess┉┉"
Hai Dai waved her hand and asked, "It's okay, how is the Earl's situation now?"
"I am equipped with several potions, and now I can only barely suppress the toxin in the earl's body, because the composition of this toxin is very complex, and I am afraid it will take some time to fully analyze it. The pharmacist hurriedly replied, glancing at Haidai as he replied, looking a little frightened.
"I want to ask, are you sure that the toxins in Count Raymond's body can be eliminated with a master antidote?"
"This┉┉Your Royal Highness Princess, the toxins in the earl's body should be neutralized by the master-level antidote, but this is only the best estimate, because the toxins used by the assassins are very special, so I don't dare to absolutely guarantee that the toxins can be eliminated 100%, if there is a grandmaster-level antidote, then it will be absolutely fine. ”
The pharmacist looked a little weak at the moment, but Hai Dai didn't pay much attention to it: "It just so happens that there is a bottle of grandmaster-level antidote here, hurry up and give it to the earl." ”
"Grandmaster-level!?ah┉┉Are you sure it's Her Royal Highness the Grandmaster-level princess!?" In an instant, the pharmacist's eyes widened.
"This is a grandmaster-level potion, hurry up and give it to the earl. Belum stepped forward and said as he carefully held the grandmaster-level antidote with both hands.
After the appearance of the grandmaster-level elixir, the pharmacist's expression became even more panicked: "Are you sure this is really a grandmaster-level antidote?Her Royal Highness the Princess~ If it is an unknown elixir, this is probably ┉┉"
The potion was taken out by Caludea. And after the identification of Painlius, for the people who saved themselves along the way, Haidai must be willing to believe in Painlius and Carudia and others, but this must be related to the safety of Count Raymond's life, once the Count has any accidents, then all the plans made will not be implemented, and in desperation, Haidai has no choice but to turn her eyes to Painlius again.
After entering the inner room, Painlius, who had not spoken, quickly stepped forward at this moment. As he walked up to Belum, Perenlius took the Grandmaster-level antidote almost rudely, and then threw it at Caludeia.
In the exclamation of Haidai and Belum, Caludia quickly used the potion: "Hey~ Brother Perenlius, what the hell are you doing?"
"I don't need any more potions. ”
Perenlius stared at the pharmacist with fierce eyes, and the pharmacist shuddered involuntarily at the moment he was stared at by Perenlius.
"The man on the bed was full of life and showed no signs of injury at all. ”
Everyone in the room looked at Perenlius in confusion, but then the pharmacist's face suddenly changed.
"What are you kidding. The Earl is now seriously injured and has only recovered a little bit of consciousness┉┉"
Just as the pharmacist was arguing, Perenlius walked directly to the bed, and then grabbed the earl's hand and twisted it vigorously, the sound of bones shattering instantly sounded, and Count Raymond, who was originally lying on the bed in a daze, suddenly let out a miserable scream, and then jumped out of bed and covered the broken hand and wailed, the lively appearance was almost like the previous state of a dying person.
"What's going on!!" Belum, who had wanted to stop Purnelius, stopped and looked at Count Raymond, who was rolling all over the ground, and asked in disbelief.
"This man is not Raymond. Perenlius looked at the ashen apothecary with burning eyes and said sharply.
In an instant, Belum immediately reacted and drew his long sword: "Who are you?
As the Grand Knight Captain, Belum couldn't believe it. In the past few days since the assassination, Count Raymond in the lord's mansion will actually be an impostor, and as Count Raymond's bodyguard, he didn't even notice it at all, and he didn't know when the count was transferred. It's a shame!
"I don't know┉┉It's none of my business!" The pharmacist shook his hand in fear to show his innocence.
But Perenlius's voice rang out again: "Both of these men have the aura of the abyss in their bodies, and they are cultists who worship demons. ”
As soon as these words came out, the pharmacist, who had pretended to be innocent, instantly had a fierce light in his eyes, and looked at Perenlius, who had exposed everything, almost with a look like he was about to devour.
"Guards, catch them!!"
Belum roared angrily, and the guards of the Lord's Mansion outside the door immediately swarmed in. Then the pharmacist laughed in surprise.
"A bunch of fools! Raymond has already gone to hell, don't be complacent, soon you will also go with him, no one can hinder the master's plan┉┉" After saying this, the pharmacist seemed to grit his teeth, and the next second a stream of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, the pharmacist collapsed to the ground.
Damn it!!
Belum immediately rushed forward and grabbed the pharmacist, judging from the other party's blackened face and convulsive body, it should have committed suicide by taking poison, and the guy who pretended to be Count Raymond also quickly fell to the ground, and after the guards looked at it, they came to the same result, both of them committed suicide by poisoning.
"Can you save them with this?" At this time, Caludia, who was playing soy sauce on the side, shook the grandmaster-level antidote in her hand again, since the other party committed suicide by taking poison, then using the antidote should be able to save her life.
"There's no need to waste it on cultists┉┉"
Purrius said lightly, then stepped forward and stomped on the Cultist Apothecary's neck in full view of everyone.
After the other party picked up, Perenlius leaned down and grabbed the pharmacist's severed neck, and under the surprised gaze of everyone, a translucent shadow was pulled out of the apothecary's body by Perenlius, and the translucent figure was caught by Perenlius's face twisted with fear and began to struggle wildly, but no matter how he moved, he couldn't break free from Perenlius's restraint at all.
"Alright, I have a lot of questions for you to answer!" Like a cold wind blowing from the poles, Perenlius's words revealed endless coldness. (To be continued.) )
