Chapter 193: Life After Death 8

The work to treat Scott took longer than expected, and was not completed until the early hours of the next day.

In the process, Ed had to completely abandon part of the other party's body, and used psionic energy to distort the flesh and change the construction of flesh nerves, only maintaining basic survivability, and later used the power of the star spirit to help stabilize.

Finally, a small piece of crystal stone full of star spirit power energy was placed on the other party's body, Ed wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and slowly walked out of the basement.

The soldiers who were waiting were instructed to take care of him, and he himself would come over later, but Scott himself had already passed out in severe pain.

Walking out of the secret dungeon, Ed did not delay for a moment, and rushed directly to the direction of the military canteen, and at the same time sent someone to inform Andre to come and meet him.

After thinking about it, he called the guards behind him again to ask Delia to come and see him as well.

Entering the canteen, most of the soldiers in the camp had not yet gotten up, but the men had already begun their work, and the smell of bread and wheat porridge wafted through the air, arousing the appetite, Ed called the person in charge, a fat-headed and big-eared fellow, and ordered him: "Temporarily stop all food supplies, inform that there will be a speech by the crown prince himself in the morning, and only after that you are allowed to eat, and before that keep your stomach clean or it will be disrespectful to the future king!"

The other party had an inexplicable expression, but he didn't dare to question Ed's meaning at all, and quickly nodded yes.

Ed was not at ease, and admonished again: "A piece of bread must not flow out." You insiders are not allowed to eat secretly, and before the end of the speech, everyone is required to have an empty stomach, otherwise you will be held accountable. Did you hear me clearly?"

"Yes! Make sure everyone goes hungry!" The person in charge was excited, and he opened his mouth to answer, and there was a burst of suppressed laughter around him.

"It's not about starving you, all the food will go through a blessing ceremony presided over by Commander Delia himself, and the blessing will be passed on to everyone through the meal, and your duty is to make sure that everyone eats the sacrament, and it is very important!" Ed thought for a moment and finally added.

After saying that, he turned to leave. Walk towards Andre, who had just come to the door.

In order to cover up the joke he made, the chubby person in charge who left behind him immediately ordered his subordinates sternly: "Why don't you hurry up to the back and inform you, didn't you hear what Lord Ed Knight said?" Which warrior has not eaten the sacrament, and when the time comes, he will come to you for his company, little bunnies!"

"Ed, what's going on? You have news of the enemy?" The hair is messy like a chicken nest. He thought that Ed had obtained information about the enemy from the Ingill captives after being tortured.

Ed nodded, turned his head to look to the other side, Delia's speed was not slow, she had already gotten up to work when Ed's guards came to report, and recently in order to accompany the crown prince on inspection, a large team of military affairs had to be moved to an earlier time.

In Deliya's impression, her close companion has always been very general-like, and she has never been so pale as she is now. As the girl approached, she reached out and grabbed his hand with concern, and Ed winked at her. Signaled that he was not a physical problem, but he didn't let go of the girl's soft little hand.

"Go inside and say. Ed took the two of them to a nearby room, which was full of dusty furniture and placed at random, obviously the owner left in a hurry, too late to clean up, there are many buildings like this in Reims Town, most of them are directly vacant, only a few have been completely converted into military camps.

Ordering all the attendants to guard the outside, and turning on the insight to make sure no one was eavesdropping, Ed told the news he had learned from Scott.

"Knight Scott has prepared two plans for Ingill's commander Cole, the former is what we speculated, targeting the crown prince, but now that Charles has arrived safely, it seems that this plan has been abandoned, and the other is to make a fuss about our food. ”

Hearing this, the hearts of the two of them relaxed slightly, they had all guessed this before, "Ed, haven't they been fine since the first attack on grain and grass, every time they should have arrived as planned, they have arrived smoothly, and now the reserves in the warehouse are increasing unabated, and it is more than enough to eat until the coronation ceremony is completed, don't worry about this!"

After Andre finished speaking, Ed still had a serious expression, and the other party's backup plan was more ruthless than he expected, "The second plan prepared by Scott is poisoning. ”

Delia and Andre both held their breath when they heard this, and their hearts were cold, as if an invisible poisonous gas was seeping into the cracks around the room.

"And this poison has an incubation period for a period of time, the onset is very slow, but the toxicity is very violent, and there is almost no cure after a certain dose. Seeing that Delia had something to say, Ed first said what he had already done.

"Although the food transport team has not reported any accidents, and I don't know if the enemy has really poisoned it, but just now I have notified the suspension of the distribution of food, and you will go and test the food later. ”

After hearing Ed's measures, both of them were impressed, "I'll go to supervise first, and temporarily close the other two warehouses." Andrei said.

Edra stopped him, "The cavalry battalion outside the town has an independent canteen, I haven't had time to block it yet, you line up first and hurry over!"

"Okay! Ed, you still want to carry forward your style at this time, put others before yourself! I really obey you!" Andre smiled bitterly and opened the door and walked out, the sunlight spilling in outside was full of vitality, but everyone couldn't feel the warmth of being irradiated in their hearts, Ed walked to the door and called his own guards and told him to follow him to convey his orders.

Behind him, Di Lia also walked out, "I'll go and test the food immediately, and send someone to find the crown prince to prepare his speech, what about you, Ed?"

"The situation there is only temporarily stable, I will go there in a while, the guard work on the perimeter also needs to be strengthened, I don't know when the enemy will rush up, I have to go and see. "Ed's biggest fear is that the enemy has been poisoning him for a while, everyone is on the verge of a seizure now, and the enemy is out there sharpening his knives and has no time to save everything for him.

"Okay, let's split up. ”

The three partners were separated, and the matter on Deria's side was the heaviest, although it was not clear what the nature of the poison used by the enemy was, but her magic was restrained against most deadly drugs, and I hope that it was still too late to find out at this time.

The crown prince was dazed and was suddenly notified by Di Lia to prepare a speech for the whole army, and when he sent someone to ask Di Lia, the girl simply hid the truth from him, Ed understood what she meant, the less people knew about it, the better, once the news spread, let the soldiers know that the food they have been eating may be poisonous, it is easy to trigger a military mutiny, and then it will be all over.

The three of them are now in a race against time on a tightrope, and their long-term efforts will be in vain if they are not careful, the royal family will no longer trust a commander who fails at a critical moment, and the soldiers will no longer follow a general who feeds them poison.

Success or failure, in one fell swoop. (To be continued......)
