Collective rebellion.

Tails stared blankly at Naki, whose breath was unsteady.

Rebellion of the Royal Guard?

No one responded to Sémir's reckless words.

Time seems to stand still for a moment, and everything is stuck in the past, no longer moving forward.

It wasn't until Barney Jr. inhaled that he sneered disdainfully and woke everyone up from surprise again.

"Ridiculous," Barney's voice sounded a little embarrassed, "Naki, your shameless lies are like ......"

"Lies?"

Like an enraged animal, Naki asked in a loud voice, squeezing Barney's unnatural question in his throat:

"Lies?"

There was a desperate coldness in Naki's tone that sent shivers down everyone's side.

He looked around at his fellow guards with different expressions, and said to Barney Jr. with a smile:

"Guess what, Barney. ”

"For what reason did the thirty-seven brothers you said you wanted to avenge them and seek justice in the dungeon all these years?"

Thirty-seven......

Without warning, Barney Jr. shook hard.

He was not the only one who reacted in this way, and many of them, including Semir, Beretti, Tardin, and Cannon, had different faces.

Still basking in the frightening news of the Guards' mutiny, Tails looked back at the crowd with a pale face.

According to Naki, the average royal guard knew about the king's assassination, and many of them were probably not participants, but at least they were bystanders.

So, in the royal guard, most of the participants and insiders who are no longer alive, what is their relationship with the bloody year, the tragedy of the royal family, and the black hands behind the scenes?

Even the people who are still alive here, those who have made a Praetorian oath to be loyal to the throne for eternity......

Belletti, Tardin, Cannon, Brie......

Unconsciously, Tails' face turned pale and he took a step back.

Naki's hoarse and pained voice continued:

"Remember Walker? He died in the first year of infighting, and I guess he probably learned the truth later and put things on the table......"

Quick knife Walker.

Little Barney's eyes were illusory for a moment, and the image of a sleek and thin man appeared in front of him.

"Mollian and the 'Bedbug' were innocent until they also knew that they could not accept the fact that their companions might be traitors, or whether they were obedient and indirectly killed the king......

Naki's words were weak, but they had a thrilling connotation, causing the expressions of everyone in the guard to change drastically, and Semir even exhaled in pain.

"Kamera is the one who knows, but he is too proud, too proud to be loyal and guilty at the same time, and to live as if nothing happened in the face of your merciless scolding......"

Molian, "Bedbug", Grimara.

Little Barney's breathing slowly stalled.

Belletti's breath trembled, and Tardin's eyes showed horror.

"And the big guy Laray, I don't know him well, I don't know if he found out the truth and wanted to kill him, or if someone else found out the truth and wanted to kill him......"

One name after another floated in the air.

Naki's words were full of misery, and he couldn't stop crying:

"Kim and Skeleton may not have been involved, but they were so guilty that they couldn't get rid of it all year after year, until these two bastards decided to leave everything behind......"

"Rogo was determined at first, but I guess the dark prison life wore him down......"

"Cox is calm, but he can't face the loss of so many people, and he can't accept that his own selfishness affects them......"

As Naki spoke, the rest of the guard was already out of shape: Semir's eyes were bloodshot with exhaustion, Nai froze in place, Brie clenched his fists in pain, and Cannon held his forehead and trembled slightly.

By the end, a tearful Naki was almost screaming:

"In this, how many people died in pain because they were imprisoned, how many died because they were not wronged in vain, and how many people actually died in guilt and depression, the arrogant and resolute Quill Barney, don't you really know?"

Tails listened to the heart-wrenching words, only to feel more and more bored in his heart.

Forty-six White Guards were imprisoned with shame, guilt, pain, guilt, and unspeakable truths......

How exactly have they spent more than a decade or so?

"I ......" Barney Jr. opened his mouth helplessly, but was speechless, only gasping for breath.

But Naki's words grew sharper and sharper:

"And you, when you, a paranoid man, have been complaining about your grievances in front of them day and night, endlessly, cursing damned traitors, and spitting on shameless plots for more than ten years......," Naki said through gritted teeth.

Little Barney seemed to remember something, and his expression became trance-like, confused, and surprised.

After a few seconds, the emotions on his face all turned into the deepest fear and panic.

"When you swear in front of those thirty-seven that you will not look back, you threaten to dig up the truth, you want to expose everything, you threaten to make sinners pay, you want to disgrace your brethren, and you force them to support you......"

Naki's tears flowed uncontrollably:

"Do you really know what your seemingly righteous and loyal accusations and determination mean to them, who are already disheartened and have nightmares?"

At that moment, little Barney's body shook!

He slammed the blade into the ground so that he wouldn't go limp.

But the vanguard officer was already like gold paper, drenched in cold sweat.

"No," little Barney, who was almost distracted, was like a cowardly and helpless child at the moment:

"No!"

"You don't even fucking know what you're talking about, Naki ......"

Little Barney staggered back, shaking his head frantically and in a panic.

"Over the years, I've watched them die, I've buried them, I've spoken for them...... For their sake, and for the sake of one day being able to clear their grievances, I have survived until now......"

Little Barney's situation has almost hit rock bottom, and he talks to himself like a madman, much more than Sakel did at the beginning.

The guards looked at each other in almost distraction, and the reading of each other was unbearable and painful.

But Naki, who was not much better mentally than Barney, was clearly not prepared to let the vanguard go.

"Hahaha, you mean, they're the only reason to keep you alive?" Naki sneered, crying and laughing.

"But you don't know ......"

"Most of them, after being imprisoned, hold shame and shame, guilt and self-blame, pain and torture, face the ugliest self, and live like a ...... years."

"And you, Quill Barney!"

Naki pointed at Barney Jr. with hatred on his face:

"You think you're encouraging them, saving them, and avenging their wrongs......"

"But in fact, you are whipping their hearts at every moment, reminding, recalling, and deepening their impression and shame of that night, and using your noble and loyal discipline and personality, righteous and awe-inspiring slogans and determination, so that they will be devastated even in prison. ”

"Forcing them to have nowhere to go, and torturing themselves ......"

Listening to Naki's words, little Barney was like an unfortunate traveler who had fallen into the abyss, trembling with fear, and even began to lose his breath.

"It's you!"

Naki's vicious accusations are unforgettable:

"It's you, it's you, one by one, day after day, who uses what seems to encourage but actually scolds them, driving them to a dead end, and finally forcing them to die to liberate!"

Naki's words reverberated through the dungeon, and everyone who heard them did not change color:

"You're the one who really killed those thirty-seven brothers!"

"Quill Barney!"

When!

In the trembling spirit of everyone, the sword and shield in Barney's hand fell to the ground at the same time, shaking endlessly.

"No!"

Little Barney covered his face with his hands in pain, trembling all over.

"No...... No, it's not me......"

His voice was timid and frightened.

Faced with such a Barney, Naki laughed:

"And you, the young master soldier, are still in high spirits and want to return to the royal capital to discover the truth and seek justice for them?"

His smile slowly converged:

"No kidding, you son of a bitch, Barney......"

"You don't know, every word of your just-in-a-kind accusation of Saqel made me sick. ”

Little Barney's moans grew more and more painful.

Tails watched this unusually cruel confrontation with mixed feelings, and the unhappiness and doubts in his heart were equally tormenting.

He remembered the cruel and merciless confrontation between the Meteorite and the Dead Crow in the barren rocky land of Qiyuan City, as a former sibling.

But even then, it was difficult to compare it to the scene in front of me.

The rest of the guard stared blankly, and even Semir was silent.

For a moment, there was only little Barney's murmur of pain in the dungeon.

He bent down to press his knees and gulped the air, as if this was the only way to get the sustenance to live.

"But ......"

"You don't know, do you?"

Barney Jr. turned to the others with a shudder, no longer having the calmness and majesty of a pioneer officer: "That's right...... It's impossible for all of us to know about something so big......"

"Tell me, this must have been made up by him......"

His tone bordered on begging.

I hope to get an answer.

But the answer is often unsatisfactory.

"I doubted. ”

A deep voice rang out.

Nai lowered his head under the gaze of everyone, and his face was gray:

"The order that day was too strange and rare, but no one stood up against it, so I ......"

"Later, when I was in prison, I also doubted it, but ......"

He didn't say any more.

Barney's gaze began in shock, then in despair.

Belletti stared at Nai in disbelief.

Another calm, fragile voice interjected:

"It's true. ”

The crowd turned their gaze to another person:

"It's true...... What Naki said, I know. ”

The speaker replied without any interest.

Little Barney's voice trembled as he looked at the man who spoke:

"Tardin?"

Tails frowned: Tardin dropped his sword and spoke in a lonely and dead voice:

"If they told me there would be such a result, if I knew Constance would ...... Then I won't, I won't ......"

As he spoke, tears slipped from his eyes:

"I won't ......"

Tardin's throat seemed to be gagged, and he lowered his head with him, never to react again.

Semir looked at him in amazement.

"Nope. "This is Dumb Little Barney.

A third trembling voice sounded:

"It shouldn't be like this......"

Tails turned his head: Cannon, trembling against the corner.

"I was delayed, I recalled the sentry and left the door...... But according to the plan, everything should be concise, straightforward, and end before they even know it, and then I should have died with the Assassins, not ...... now."

Cannon's eyes were blank and he muttered:

"I'm sorry ......"

The look in Barney's eyes gradually dimmed, as if the last glimmer of hope had been wiped out:

"Cannon?"

Cannon chuckled hard.

"Naki is right, Semir is right, it's our fault, we can't run away from it," he muttered nervously, shaking his head:

"Sachael can't be left alone...... He's already saddled with too much ......"

Naki's words fell, and the dungeon was quiet for a long time.

Until Barney Jr.'s hoarse and wooden voice came again:

"Anyone else?"

A few seconds later, Brie sobbed in pain and fell to her knees, suffocating in pain.

"Brie?" Barney looked at him in amazement.

Naki chuckled, his eyes glazed over.

"That's why he can't speak anymore...... Naki whispered; He didn't have the courage to face ......"

The last of Barney's expressions faded.

"Tardin, Cannon, Brie, Naki......" The vanguard officer numbly looked at the four people in front of him who were behaving differently:

"In the past ten years, thirty-seven people have ............"

"Why...... Why don't you tell me the truth?"

His echo echoed through the walls.

No one spoke.

Tails looked at them with a depressed mood.

At that moment, it seemed that everything else didn't matter.

"The truth?"

It was Naki who spoke.

He looked at Barney Jr. with sarcasm.

"Barney, do you know who led the way back then?"

As soon as these words came out, almost everyone's expressions changed.

Including Barney, his near-numb face twitched again.

Tails snapped and understood something.

Naki bent down and laughed bitterly:

"Barney...... You pathetic idiot, he really loves you, doesn't he?"

Naki's words reveal a deep hatred:

"So he protected you so well that you didn't know anything...... Maybe he is betting on both sides of the bet, and he is counting on you to escape and stay in the palace with this innocence and ignorance afterwards. ”

"Can you even take his place?"

Little Barney's eyes widened!

"No, no......"

The vanguard officer muttered.

A great sadness and despair came over him.

"That's right. ”

Just listen to Naki coldly said:

"Back then, it was none other than those who took the lead in gathering our group of people and instigated us to let the court go in turmoil, threw us all into the endless abyss, and then escaped the final judgment by ourselves. ”

Naki gritted his teeth, the emotion in his eyes indescribable:

"I hate him, I curse him. ”

He hatefully said:

"That's right, Deputy Captain of the Royal Guard. ”

"Big Quill Barney. ”

"Your damned father. ”

Thump.

Barney Jr. dropped his weapon and touched his knees.

He fell to his knees in a daze, his breathing choppy and his eyes hollow.

From this moment on, there was no trace of sparkle on his face.

It's like losing a soul.
