Chapter 144: The Abduction of the King
"Looks like the situation is not good!" Miranda's troops engaged the White Dragon Knights. And Byron and the others are still struggling under the siege of the soldiers of the Black Dragon Knights. At this time, a group of soldiers under the stone tower were slowly surrounding Geraint.
Joshua waved the sword in his hand to prevent the other party from approaching: "Go away, you are not allowed to hurt Uncle Geraint!"
"Your Majesty, this man is now a dangerous person, get out of him. Several guards shouted loudly, but did not dare to approach.
Geraint slowly raised his head and looked around the entire school grounds, where the members of the Five Dragons Knights were fighting each other. With the addition of the White Dragon Knights, the already unfavorable situation was exacerbated. Whether it's Bai Ao or Schroeder, they are all people who will not show mercy in battle. Fortunately, the generals under their command still seem to remember the comradeship they have been with for many years, and they have more or less a taste of mercy when fighting. On the side of the Blue Dragon Knights, Thunder Fist Zhang and Iron Fist Rogge and the Demon Sword Lance and the Rose Knight Wren fought in close combat, while the Black Pearl Lila and Erin began to fight fiercely. The mermaid brothers, Uta and Lima, also faced Kai and Yelena respectively, and the scene was very chaotic. Only the coward Harvey hid in the corner and watched coldly. "Captain, they're really crazy, do you want to rebel against Byron and them?
Just when the situation is deadlocked, Geraint makes a decision that surprises everyone. He quickly took Joshua in his arms, picked up his sword, and shouted, "All of you lay down your arms, and your majesty is in my hands." β
Geraint's actions drew the attention of the audience to the bottom of the stone tower.
"The abduction of the king is an unforgivable sin...... "Ecbertor said to Geraint, "I advise you to let go of the king and surrender to us!"
"The unforgivable sin? Hmph~" Geraint sneered, "Is the crime of poisoning the king serious? Since you can put this charge on Lord Byron's head, what is the point of kidnapping the king?"
The members of the Knights who were fighting on the school grounds stopped fighting and turned their eyes to Geraint's side.
"The Knight of Geraint kidnapped the king, so let this guy Parsa be convicted of their crimes!" Roger smiled slightly, "and by the way, we were implicated." β
"Didn't you become one of the rebels when you decided to turn against us, don't pretend, Roger!" Schroeder laughed loudly, "and if the king hadn't been in his hands, I would have dismantled you long ago." β
With that, Schroeder turned his gaze to Geraint's side. He was amazed to find that the young king had no fear after being kidnapped by Geraint. "It seems that His Majesty the King has a deep relationship with that guy from Geraint. Now that he is being used by Geraint, he doesn't feel scared at all. β
"Is it ignorant and naΓ―ve, or is it really brave?" Bai Ao's eyes on the other side were blazing, and he also raised such a question. Parsa seemed to have a feeling that even breathing hurt. He whispered, "Damn it, if there is a father, there must be a son." The king will always be closest to the people of the Golden Dragon Knights. β
Geraint stood with his back against the wall of the stone tower, Joshua in his arms, surrounded by palace guards, a dozen ...... Twenty, or even more...... Some were his comrades...... But now it's more of his enemies.
Geraint shouted again, "All of them lay down their weapons...... Let's go!"
"Knight Geraint, you have to think clearly. Ekberdo yelled viciously, "You were supposed to be an accomplice to Byron for life at most, but now we can kill you on the spot." β
"Well, I think you dare!" Gerant, holding Joshua with a sword in one hand and Joshua in the other, began to move.
Joshua looks like he was kidnapped on the surface, but in fact, he is still very willing to cooperate with his Uncle Geraint to play a good show of kidnapping the king. Ever since he passed the test of the fourth layer of the Flame Temple, he had never figured out what the ultimate test of the fifth layer was waiting for him, and what would bring him to such a parallel realm. And whether Uncle Geraint in this world is the same person as the Geraint he knows. If you have been a king in the palace, you may not be able to solve them in this life. He didn't want to die in the so-called parallel world for the rest of his life, even if he became the supreme king and died. Because he knows that everything can be illusory.
Geraint "kidnapped" the king and headed straight to the west, the palace guards and some of the Knights' soldiers pressing on. "You all go out of the way," shouted Geraint, "we don't do anything to the king, we just want to get out safely." β
"Hmph, after all, Geraint is the former mentor of His Majesty the King, and I don't believe that he will kill His Majesty. Parsa stepped off the platform, her eyes filled with murder.
"Okay, let's get out of the way. Some of the soldiers stepped back
Many guards gathered to watch them, and Geraint slowly walked from the crowd to where Byron was. "Geraint, your injuries are fine, are you?" Byron asked with concern.
"Hmph, I have already been covered in bruises, and I still have time to care about others, I don't know who will take care of whom when we come. Fanny glared at Byron.
"I'm fine, Lord Byron, let's get out of here. Geraint continued with Joshua. The guards who had besieged Byron and the others had to get out of the way and let them go.
"I don't think we're going to be able to stay in Floating City, are we?" said Roger, smiling at Miranda.
So, they waved their hands and told their followers to leave the school grounds.
Seeing that Byron and the others, who were originally prisoners of the stairs, were about to leave the school grounds by kidnapping the king, Parsa clenched his fists tightly, and the murderous look in his eyes was fierce.
"I don't think they dare to do anything to His Majesty. Parsa said to the few knight generals who had already made peace with him.
"Your Excellency," said Ecbeldo, "what do you mean?"
"Hmph! Don't let them run away, find an opportunity to kill them all. β
"No, I can't. Since you think Byron is the murderer of the old king, then they don't care about the current king at all, do you say?"
Parsa turned his head to look at Bai Ao, Bai Ao's eyes made him feel a chill in his heart, it was a feeling as if the truth had long been debunked. Bai Ao is an unpredictable man to everyone, and no one knows what he really thinks in his heart. But Parsa didn't have time to think about it, and by the time he reacted, Byron and the others had already stepped out of the schoolyard. He heard Ecberdo shouting, "All tighten up for me, be optimistic about His Majesty's Majesty!"
From the beginning of the trial to the abduction of prisoners by members of the Golden Dragon Knights, the sky has become dark unconsciously. Ruona and the others helped Byron to withdraw from the encirclement, while Geraint continued to "hijack" Joshua and slowly retreated, while Roger's Blue Dragon Knights were responsible for helping them clear the way. Under everyone's gaze, they were approaching the gates of the Floating City, and Ecbertor led the soldiers to press closer, and the voice of surrender was still in their ears. But this is as futile as a man catching a thief in the street, shouting for the thief in front not to run away.
"What are we going to do next, Lord Baio," asked Yelena to Bai Ao, "and we just watched as Geraint and the others took the king away, don't you think it might be dangerous for the king to fall into their hands?"
Bai Ao snorted coldly after hearing this: "Let's not care about so much. The defense of the Floating City is the responsibility of the Golden Dragon Knights, and His Majesty the King was robbed under the nose of Parsa, and he is responsible for all the consequences. Since Roger's Blue Dragon Knights also chose to join Byron, there will definitely be good shows in the future. β
"What do you mean?
"We are knights in charge of fighting, not gendarmerie thinking about how to solve crimes. But I'm looking forward to seeing them on the battlefield in the future. The corners of Bai Ao's mouth lifted.
Floating outside the city, Geraint "kidnapped" Joshua and walked away, and Ecbeldo and his men waited for each step but did not dare to approach, at this moment Joshua suddenly shouted at Ecberdo: "You don't hurry up and go away, the more you press, the more they won't let go of me......"
