Chapter 18: Surrender

On the four corners of the carriage, four rungs are carved respectively, so that the person sitting in the car can reach out and hold it to stabilize the body. But this car, however, has scales.

In terms of shape, it resembles a dragon, but lacks horns. Like a serpent, but with more claws.

Feng Luo knew that this was Jiao. Ordinary people can't use it for decoration, and in the whole country of Davao, only the king is qualified to ride in such a car.

Who does this car belong to? Why did it stuff it in, and where was it pulled?

A series of questions flashed through Feng Luo's mind. He didn't know, and the others who were caught together didn't know.

The carriage sped away, and after a while, it stopped. Before Feng Luo could react, he was arrested and taken out.

It is a small and elegant yard with many flowers and trees. But at this moment, Feng Luo felt a trace of scarcity. It seems that from every corner, there is an oppressive feeling.

It was purely a feeling, one that didn't need to be looked at to be perceived. From the moment he got out of the car, dozens of eyes were on him. If there is any movement, it will probably be attacked immediately.

They were brought in and then split in different rooms. Quietly probing the surrounding environment, Feng Luo was seventy percent sure of escaping. But thinking of his companion, he was quiet for a moment and did not take any action.

After a while, someone came in, and it turned out to be Ramiel.

"Viscount Fengluo, I'm really sorry to have brought you here in such a way. Ramiel's voice sounded comfortable, "My men wanted to be bad for you, and I later changed my mind and hoped you wouldn't mind." ”

Ramil freely admits what he has done and sincerely apologizes. In the vicious fight just now, Feng Luo had been angry, but under Ramiel's smile, it disappeared.

"Viscount Fengluo is a wise man who believes he can guess my intentions. Ramil continued to smile.

"With the dignity of the duke, it is certainly not idle to be able to apologize to me and chat. Feng Luo followed the conversation and said his speculation, "People with high status, condescending and people with low status must be useful to the other party." ”

Ramil nodded, motioning for him to continue.

"And I don't have the support of my family, and my cultivation is not very good, and the Duke looks down on my Fenglu City and one or two hundred soldiers. Feng Luo counted carefully, "What really aroused the Duke's interest is that I have been able to approach His Majesty the King recently." ”

His cultivation is indeed far behind that of a real master. But among his peers, it is the existence of high mountains. It's just that if the duke finds him, will he provide a good cultivation environment and wait for him to become a talent in a few years?

Of course, the duke will not have such good patience, and the most likely reason is to disadvantage the king. From the decoration of the carriage, you can also see the ambition of Duke Ramiel.

When Duke Ramil heard Feng Luo's analysis, his face changed slightly, and he was immediately relieved.

"You are worthy of being valued by the king, my brother has made you a candidate, and he really has a good eye. Ramil exclaimed, "However, Your Excellency the Viscount must accede to my request, or else you will be killed." ”

When he said the word "kill", Ramiel's eyes revealed a little anger, and at the same time exuded a domineering spirit. But Feng Luo had a submissive mood in his heart, and seemed to be willing to die for him.

Compared to the king, Ramil brings much less pressure, but is easier to get close to. The two royal families, in terms of personal strength, it is really difficult to judge who is stronger.

"Such a big deal, can you let me think about it?" Feng Luo pondered for a moment, deciding that he couldn't come down.

"Is Viscount Fengluo going to stall for time? If you say yes sooner, it will be a great credit after the deed. You get the idea. But I can give you an hour, I hope you don't miss it. Ramil smiled and nodded, and went out.

Feng Luo was not loyal to the king, and even basic reverence was lacking. Because he is not a Davao man, the king in his eyes is no different from ordinary nobles, but more powerful.

It doesn't seem to make a difference whether to be loyal to the current king, or to join Duke Ramier. Therefore, Fengluo analyzes from the perspective of pure pros and cons.

The current king is in a strong position, but the Duke of Ramil is not much behind. Although in terms of control over the army, Duke Ramil was negligible in numbers. But the royal army's allegiance is only to the royal family, and there is no personal emotion.

For example, if Ramil manages to take the throne before his brother mobilizes his army, those armies will be in his service.

Similarly, for ministers and extended families, it basically doesn't matter who occupies the throne in the royal family. They even want the royal family to be chaotic and fighting, thus weakening their control over other families.

Moreover, some hardliners still feel that the current king lacks courage and pampering. Duke Ramel was sympathetic to the people's feelings, friendly with the major families, and had different opinions on the affairs of various countries, which was obviously more clever than the king.

On the whole, as long as Duke Ramiel has the right timing and moves quickly, he has no chances. Feng Luo took refuge at this time, which can be said to be from the dragon's work, and his status in the future is bound to be low.

And choosing to remain loyal to the king, even if he is lucky enough not to die, will not improve his status.

Purely considering the gains and losses of interests, it seems that it is much more cost-effective to follow Duke Ramier. Although there are risks, the rewards are much greater.

But there was one thing he had to consider. If you take refuge in Duke Ramiel, you will be labeled a traitor for the rest of your life. He is a traitor at all times!

Yes, in a way, he betrayed the kingdom of Haori. But the Haori Kingdom didn't give him the power he deserved at all, and in that country, he wasn't even a "human"!

Therefore, escaping from Haori and helping Davao to fight back, Feng Luo has no psychological pressure. For the sake of survival and dignity, he had no choice.

It's a different story now, he's got the respect he deserves in Davao. and even began to develop in a good direction and gradually gained status. Rebellion is rebellion, and there is no reason, even if it is threatened, it will not change this fact.

After "rebellion", a knot will arise in the state of mind that is difficult to untie, which is very detrimental to future cultivation. And after the first time, it is difficult to say that in the future it will not do other things that violate the principle.

What's more, he doesn't necessarily get more benefits under Lamir. There are many benefits in a short period of time, including higher titles, as well as armies and territories. But is Ramil reassured of him?

Feng Luo betrayed once this time under the temptation of interests. There is no guarantee that he will not continue to be a traitor in the future, and Ramil certainly will not be reassured. When the situation is stable, it is the time to unload the mill and kill the donkey. It's good to be able to save your life in the future, don't expect a high title.

After weighing the pros and cons, taking refuge in Ramil will have benefits in the short term, but in the long run, the disadvantages will outweigh the advantages.

The question now is, does he have a choice? Refusal or silence, and Ramil is likely to kill him, along with four of his companions.

When he was in the carriage, Feng Luo was sure to break free from his restraints and escape. And now that he is not bound, he has a greater certainty of escaping. But what about the companions?

Feng Luo listened to the sound outside, and Ramil had already walked away. And the guards, on the surface, are five, taking different routes, patrolling back and forth. And in the dark, he could feel five.

Guessing based on the current situation, Ramil is busy. The time to launch it is tomorrow at the latest. That's why I can't wait to find him, because tomorrow we will meet the king.

With Huanai, it is not insured, because Huanai's cultivation is not enough. If Feng Luo and the others are allowed to do the second attack, the chances of success are much greater. Feng Luo speculated that there must be other people hiding around the king.

Warnai does the first wave, and the other hidden people, plus Fengluo, do the second wave and the third wave, which will make the king unguardable. Feng Luo thought for a while, how would he arrange it if he changed to himself. He found that the chances of success were great, unless the king was already aware of it.

Feng Luo quickly made up his mind to help the king dismantle the crisis. And Ramil will pay the price for his carelessness and pride!

Feng Luo found a hidden corner and began to dig a pit. He needs a shallow pit, and that's enough.

After digging the pit, Feng Luo made a concealment on it. The person lies in it, just right. He took out two scrolls, one of which slammed the door. The door of the house was bombarded, and in an instant it shattered, and debris flew up.

"Someone is going to run away!" the guards outside the house shouted in surprise and rushed towards the broken doorway. Including the hidden person, three also appeared.

Feng Luo waved his hand, and a scroll was left to bombard the roof. A large hole was made in the top of the house, and it almost completely collapsed.

"Run from above! Stop him!" The man who rushed to the door could not hold back, so he had to call for others to intercept him. After they rushed into the house, they didn't care about the debris falling above their heads, and they used their pulse to resist, jumped high, and chased them out from the roof.

At this time, Feng Luo was hiding underground and waiting quietly. Wait for everyone to chase out of the house before quietly getting up.

He was sure to lure people away because there was a lot of noise tonight, and the other party was extremely alert. Anything that might leak the news will cause them to panic.

Feng Luo lowered his body and went out almost sideways, like a snake. Out of the room, he leaned against the corner and walked slowly. Next, he went to rescue his companions.

He was not sure whether his companions had taken refuge in Ramiel. Before today, Ramil had surrendered to them, almost 100 percent successfully. Because no one appreciates them, it is strange that suddenly someone extends an olive branch and is not grateful.

But now, they won't necessarily say yes. Because they have faith and something they want to pursue.

Although Feng Luo hopes that they can persevere, he will not take refuge in the past. But if any of them did take refuge in Ramiel, he would not feel sorry for him. Because people who are not firm in their beliefs are not worthy of being teammates, it is a good thing to rule them out early.
