"Just do as you say!" Maher looked at Charlotte and nodded helplessly.

At this moment, Maher's square was already a little chaotic, and for a while, he couldn't think of any better way at all, so he could only adopt Charlotte's opinion.

Seeing Maher's current appearance, Charlotte sneered in her heart, and she immediately 'selected' two more guards to go out to reconnoitre.

"Maher, why don't we retreat to the mountains, so that even if there is any change for a while, we will not be too passive!" The two guards had barely walked out of the col when Charlotte came to Maher's side and encouraged him to get out of here.

"What will change?" Maher was shocked by Charlotte's words, but on the surface he was still trying to compose himself.

Maher's subtle change did not escape Charlotte's eyes, and she became more and more proud in her heart, and looked down on Maher a little more.

"There has been no news from outside for so long, and we must now prepare for the worst as soon as possible. ”

"In case Ed has a different heart and takes refuge in the Fengqi Empire, we may have a chance to escape by hiding in the mountains!" Charlotte said as she looked around and whispered in Maher's ear.

Charlotte's words seemed to destroy Maher's psychological defense in an instant, and his face immediately turned pale.

But what Charlotte never expected was that just when she thought that Maher would 'obey' her, Maher's frowning brows gradually relaxed, and his eyes became firm.

"I don't dare to say Ed, but the teacher will never abandon us!"

"I think the reason why the teacher hasn't sent someone back the news is because he judged that it was not necessary! We'll wait here!" said Maher, who had just paced back and forth. I walked to the side of the road and sat down.

Maher was not a strong contender for the heir to the throne of Proud Gold by no means entirely by luck. He does have something special.

"What if Edward controls his uncle?" Maher calmed down, but Charlotte panicked.

"Charlotte, you're too worried!The teacher is a saint-level master, although Ed is excellent, he is not yet twenty years old after all, how can he be the teacher's opponent?!"

"And don't forget, they also have Rog and those cavalry battalion soldiers by their side, you don't think they'll help Ed deal with the teacher too?!" Maher had completely calmed down by this moment, and smiled and waved his hand to Charlotte.

Maher's expression completely dashed Charlotte's hope, and her face immediately turned cold. He nodded secretly to the three guards who had been following her.

"Jingle Bell"

"Poof!poof!"

With a few clashes of weapons, Maher's other guards fell unprepared at the hands of their 'comrades'.

"What are you going to do?" Maher jumped up from the side of the road at this scene, drew his sword and took a few steps forward, blocking Charlotte behind him, and questioned the three guards.

"They just want you to lay down your arms and go with them weirdly!" Maher didn't expect that it wasn't the three people in front of him who answered his question, but Charlotte, whom he was sacrificing to protect.

Meanwhile. Maher sensed a sword around his neck, a sword he knew all too well.

"Charlotte, don't mess around! I'm Maher!"

"Of course I know that you are Your Highness the Venerable Maher!and it is for this reason that you can continue to stand here and give us a lecture!" Charlotte's voice was no longer gentle. Instead, there was a biting cold.

"Charlotte, don't be stupid! The teacher and General Ed will be back here soon, and you can't leave here with me!"

"Listen to me: if only you let me go. I swear to God that I will not blame the past for what happened today! It's like nothing happened!"

"Stop dreaming! Tell you the truth, Diarra and Ed won't come back!"

"This time it was Aubrey, the southern commander of the Fengqi Empire, who pursued us. He has 20,000 elites under his command, not 3,000 as they say!"

"Don't be delusional that Feng Qi's main force will be led away by Hope, with me, an insider, passing information on Marshal Aubrey, no matter how brilliant Ed's strategy is, it can't have any effect!"

"There is no news of Diarra and Ed now, I think they must have fallen into the trap set for them by Marshal Aubrey, and they are probably all wiped out by this time!, Your Highness Maher, you have no way to escape, resign yourself to your fate!" Charlotte became more and more smug as she spoke, and at last she laughed out loud.

"Charlotte, why are you doing this? We grew up together, and the teacher is your own uncle, why are you framing us like this?" Maher asked in surprise as she felt as if Charlotte had completely changed as a person.

"No one is small in front of the Dark Moon God, and of course you are no exception!" Charlotte's voice was flat and cold, she was a standard fanatical believer of the Dark Moon God at the moment.

"You joined the Cult of the Dark Moon God?"

"It is only in the arms of the Dark Moon God that we can achieve the greatest happiness!, Your Highness Maher, I hope you can make the right choice!"

"What's the right choice?"

"The right choice is," Charlotte suddenly realized that the person asking the question was coming from behind her, and she quickly took a half step forward and completely controlled Maher in her hands.

Making sure there were no problems, Charlotte turned to look at the person behind her who had just asked.

"Is that you?" Charlotte's heart trembled when she saw someone coming.

"It's me!You're not going to forget me so quickly, are you?, I really didn't expect your skills to be so good!" Charlotte's movements just now were concise, fast, and effective, and even Li Zijun couldn't help nodding for her expression.

"There's so much more to what you didn't expect! Marshal Aubrey's army will soon arrive here, Ed, I advise you to give up your senseless resistance, and I will intercede with Marshal Aubrey for you, and save your life. ”

"Aubrey, he's still chasing the 'main force' led by General Hope, I'm afraid I won't see him this time!"

"You're talking nonsense, I've already sent them news, they can't be fooled by you!" Charlotte was still insisting, but she was already starting to feel a little weak in her heart.

"I have to say, your handwriting is very beautiful, except for me, no one else really can imitate it!" Li Zijun said as he took out the note left by Charlotte from his arms.

"You may be thinking at the moment: 'You don't know the secret language of our communication, and it's useless for you to imitate the handwriting no matter how similar it is!'

"But I just accidentally learned about your secret language, don't you say it's a coincidence?"

"Impossible!"

"But it's impossible that you'll see it soon! You're right, the team behind us is not 3,000 people, but it's not 20,000 people as you think! Their exact strength is 5,000!"

"I was still worried about how to get rid of them, but now it's okay, because with your 'help', this qiē is no longer a problem!"

"As you expected, someone will obediently jump into the trap that has been set. It's just that you guessed the roles of both of us!" Li Zijun said as he looked at Charlotte coldly.

"Ed, don't be complacent yet! You forgot that His Highness Maher is still in my hands at the moment! Now I only need to swipe the sword in my hand lightly, even if you people escape, this battle is equivalent to winning!"

"If you really dare to do that, we will be losers, but I promise you, you will never be victors either!" Charlotte had just finished speaking when another person's voice suddenly came from behind her.

Charlotte turned around again, only to find that the three guards from her camp had fallen to the ground silently at this moment.

Her uncle, Diarra, was now standing in the middle of the three, glaring at her fiercely!

"Uncle?" said Charlotte.

"You're so polite!How can I be so good as you?!Please don't call me that in the future!" Diarra tried his best to suppress his feelings, but it was undeniable that he was so angry with Charlotte that his voice began to change tone a little.

"You're going to cut ties with me, don't regret it for a while!"

"I only regret now that I didn't find out about your wolf ambitions sooner! Charlotte, you hurry up and let His Highness go! Otherwise, don't blame me for killing you!"

"Diarra, don't scare me! I'm not afraid to tell you, this sword in my hand is coated with poison and blood! As long as my hand shakes slightly, your Highness Maher may not see the dawn!"

"You"

"What am I, you two don't talk nonsense, give me a step back!" Charlotte's eyes widened, and she snapped at Li Zijun and Diarra.

"Okay, okay, let's retreat, but you must be careful with the sword in your hand!" Li Zijun seemed to be more concerned about Maher's safety than Diarra, and after hearing Charlotte's threat, he chose to retreat almost without hesitation.

Charlotte was originally most worried that Li Zijun would rush to her regardless of it, and seeing this scene, she couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Ed, I always thought you had no scruples, but I didn't expect it," Charlotte said, casually glancing at Li Zijun, but it was this glance that made her heart shake.

It was at this moment that Charlotte's mind went blank, and she forgot not only what she should say next, but also where she was and what she wanted to do at this moment.

When Charlotte's soul was 'possessed' again, she was surprised to find that the sword in her hand had already reached Li Zijun......'s hand!
