Chapter 114: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada (Part II)

Yifeng is very angry.

His eyes lit up as he looked at the opposing crowd in the arena, his teeth clucking.

"Bastard! How dare you pretend to be us!"

As a shameless guy who often pretends to be someone else, Yifeng's reaction is almost to only allow the governor to set fires and not allow the people to light the lamps.

So, Linda looked at Yifeng's face very strangely.

"Why are you so angry?"

I only heard Yifeng tugging at his hair in annoyance.

"Mistake, mistake! If we knew that this guy Gast also stepped in, we should have used his banner!"

“......”

This time, Linda's anger also came up.

"Bastard, when is it, and you still have the heart to think about this?"

If it weren't for the fact that she was hiding her figure, Linda would have been eager to slap this guy's head open to see what was inside.

"We can't get into it, what don't we want to think about?"

Yifeng sighed faintly, very annoyed that he hadn't come up with the idea earlier.

Linda couldn't help but pinch Yifeng and motioned for Yifeng's attention to focus below.

"You should think about it, why is Garst here, and what is his purpose?"

.......

No one wants to live a life of mediocrity, let alone a prince with the right to inherit?

Gast's purpose is clear, that is, to take advantage of the inextricable gap between Arthur and Adam to gain the advantage of the fisherman.

He is the yellow finch hidden in the bushes, and when the praying mantis is about to pounce on the cicada, it will suddenly launch a fatal blow!

"Haha! The old lion king deserves to be the old lion king, so you can see it!"

The man in black looked up to the sky and snorted, and suddenly ripped off the black face scarf, revealing Gast's harmless face.

But in the eyes of Xius and others, it is as terrifying as a demon.

"Okay, that's good! You're hiding deep enough! You're also here for Your Majesty? Tell you, with my Xiusi here, don't you think!"

As soon as Xius swung his long knife, the Praetorian Guards shouted in unison, and they circled around Qigast and the others with their spears.

There were seven men in total, and they guarded Gast in the middle from back to back, confronting the Praetorian Guards.

"Do you think I'm Gast, I'm not sure I'll be here? Theseus, you're old. No wonder people are playing you around!"

Gast was not at all alarmed, he was as leisurely as a stroll among the flowers, and slapped his hands in a thoughtful manner.

"Theseus, you're out. Excuse me, who will protect Your Majesty?"

The old lion king Xius was shocked, but his face did not change, but sneered.

"Your Highness Gast, you are underestimating me too much. Such a trick would have been used by my Theseus when I was ten years old. His Majesty's safety is naturally the responsibility of the court magicians and great swordsmen. I just need to keep an eye on you, and that's enough!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Hughes heard a rush of footsteps behind him.

"General Hughes, it's not good! Your Majesty has been kidnapped!"

But it was Paul, the deputy general of Hughes, who had cold sweat rolling on his forehead, a look of horror, and rushed straight to Hughes.

Oh no, is it a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain?

Taken aback, Theseus hurriedly took his long knife and grabbed Paul's shoulder.

"What happened to Your Majesty?"

More shocking is yet to come.

Seeing that Hughus's figure suddenly froze, a painful pale appeared on his face, he lowered his head, and in disbelief he saw a short sword plunged into his chest and abdomen, and the hand holding the sword turned out to be Paul.

"Why? How could it be you!?"

"Haha, Your Majesty is safe and sound, but it's not easy for you to say Xiusi!"

Gast let out a long laugh and parted the crowd.

"Surprised, isn't it? The reason is simple, because I can give more!"

As if to verify Gast's words, Paul gritted his teeth and drew his short sword, and a stream of blood suddenly gushed out from the wound covered by Hughes.

"I'm sorry, General Hughes, I, Paul, am a member of His Royal Highness, so I have to do this!"

This was a very fatal blow, not to mention that the physical condition of Old Xius was not as good as before.

Hughes spewed a gulp of school foam, a glint of kindness appeared on his face, he shook his body a few times, and stretched out his other hand to caress Paul's young face.

"Good boy, why are you doing this? Do you know, after this incident, I'm going to retire. I have long recommended to Prince Adam that you take over my position!

When the boom sounded.

Paul threw down the bloody dagger in his hand and hugged the old Hughes with tears streaming down his face.

"No, you don't want to die! I was wrong, General! Come on, save the General!"

Old Hughes raised his head, his gaze seeming to see through the dark sky.

"No, I'm old and want to rest! Paul, do it yourself!"

He began to lean back, as if he had returned to his youth, when he saw the golden wheat fields, and his wife and children stood in front of the wooden house, smiling quietly at him.

"Darling, I'm here to accompany you!"

Finally, he was lying on his back on the ground, with a smile on his face.

Paul knelt before Hughes and wept silently.

"Hello old general, you can rest assured, your family, as long as I, Paul, live for a day, I will not let them suffer any grievances. ”

Paul gently stroked the eyes of Hughes who were still round, but he couldn't close them.

The Praetorian Guards were shocked, looked at each other, and threw down their weapons in unison.

The die is cast!

"Hey, bury him well! Take care of yourself, we still have important things to do!"

Gast patted Paul on the shoulder comfortingly, leaving one of them to take in the unmotivated Praetorian Guards, while he led the rest of the men in black into the palace.

......

The people who were even more frightened were the two of them peeping on the rooftop.

Seeing that a generation of heroic Husses finally ended up in this fate, Yifeng couldn't help but be sad.

"Hey~~~ I don't know how many people are going to fall today?"

Yifeng sighed softly, looking at the palace under the vast night, but it was like a monster that loved people, and the black hole opened its big mouth.

Linda clenched her fists tightly as if she were almost reproachful.

"I never thought that this Gast would be so deeply hidden!"

Remembering that Paul turned out to be a dark chess game played by Gast, Yifeng couldn't help but shudder.

It seems that none of the people who grew up in the palace are idle!

I'm still too young!

I really thought Gast was a prodigal son!

Who would have thought he could hide so deeply?

Suddenly, Yifeng thought of something. He turned his head sharply and saw Linda's worried eyes.

"Oh no! Gast can keep a back hand, so isn't Arthur in danger?"

The two spoke almost in unison.
