Chapter 349 Dialogue* Deterrence
The back formation of the undead outside the West Gate, a powerful aura that quickly passed by made the three humans who were still thinking about how to seize the sixth-level undead so scared that they held their breath until a seventh-level energy followed the distance. Only then did they jump up to the treetops in fear and look at the dark night that could not be seen.
"That's Federic, right?"
The figure standing at the highest point spoke first, and then he heard Malcolm's answer, who was released by Lu Chen.
"Yes~yes, I didn't expect that he really reached the eighth level. No wonder the prince chose to take action."
"Hmph, what is an eighth-level assassin?" The man who spoke first turned his head and glanced at Malcolm without slashing, and he was Eric who set the trap for Lu Chen.
"Yes, it's the same eighth level but it's completely incomparable to Master Ron. At best, it's just a soldier rushing in front." Little immediately blocked his son smoothly, and spent many years in the officialdom. He heard the dissatisfaction of the envoy in front of him with his son.
"Okay, there's no need to say this in front of me. No matter what happens, the biggest trouble is gone anyway, so decide what to do."
"Yes, then~ Envoy, you see what you said before, pretending to be defeated and retreated, return to Eames, and wait for the opportunity to get rid of him and seize control of the sixth-level undead when the battle between him and the second prince is about to win, how about it?"
"So casual, as long as you work hard, I will report it to His Highness the Great Prince." Sui casually waved his hand, and Eric stopped caring about it.
"Thank you, the envoy." Although I don't know why the eldest prince gave him a chance, Litt still wanted to rely on an orthodox and powerful heir to the throne. Especially now that the relationship with Eames's "old friend" has begun to break down from the inside, and there are three undead legions destroyed by Lu Chen.
Malcolm, who only said one sentence, looked at his father and gave him a wink, nodded and bowed to accompany the so-called envoy to leave. He felt extremely uncomfortable. You know, just envied the strength of the eighth level just now. However, he was no longer the arrogant and ignorant young city lord before, and buried that hatred deeply in his heart. And he also saw a lot from Lu Chen. He understood that only by hiding it deeply. Waiting until the critical moment to win with one blow is the way to survive, especially in the face of the kingdom struggle that is more fierce than the monsters.

He flew all the way to a forest far away from the college camp and found a quiet place. Federic not only let go of his concubine Luna, who was held hostage by him, but after the other party gained temporary freedom, he just took out a bottle of water to moisten his throat. Then he found a tree stump and sat down quietly.
I was a little puzzled. Apart from a few people who were terrified, I had never seen a person with aspirations so calm in front of me. Anyway, there would be no problem for the time being. Federic tried to ask: "I shouldn't recognize the wrong person, Your Highness the Fourth Princess?"
He ignored him. However, Fei Luna put away the indetent-looking mist on her face.
"Haha, it's true that it's very similar to the eldest princess. Are you not worried about how I will do you?" Seeing that Luna had no intention of speaking, Federic felt a little excited and continued, "Okay, I kidnapped you and did have somewhere to use you. But don't you even care about that Lucien?"
"...I was arrested for my mother's power and the man who forced me to be loyal to Ulysses. What do you think I should have?" The other party mentioned Lu Chen, and Luna was a little worried, and it happened to use this to test what he was thinking about.
"This may be the only difference between you and the eldest princess, and it is also the reason why you are as beautiful as her but cannot compare. You have completely inherited your mother's character... It's a pity that you are not a prince, otherwise I might persuade Ulysses to give up the idea of regaining the throne." Federic said sighing, without denying the speculation that Concubine Luna had ulterior motives.
“Is it meaningful to say this?”
"It's really meaningless, but with your nature, I was surprised that Lucien was your man. Can I satisfy my curiosity, the old man? It should take a lot of time to catch up with him, and there is also the necromancer that Eames needs to deal with."
The other party's agreement made Concubine Luna feel much more relaxed. As the leader of the former Shadow Guard, he must have known his value for his use. Nothing will happen immediately, otherwise it will only put Ulysses in a more difficult situation. But most of Lu Chen's value is unknown. Thinking back to the look he looked at him when he was taken, he thought that his man would indeed chase Concubine Luna, who thought for a few seconds, decided to reveal some things that could eliminate Lu Chen's chance of being killed. Because she was not sure whether Sera, who had not taken action, would come with her the same.
"It's nothing. He gave me a dragon. He was not interested in my little secret. He had a special relationship with Serra. He recognized a goddess as his sister. Moreover, according to my investigation, the old man from the Mercenary Union and the dwarf master Aubrig were his friends. He also had a good relationship with Barnes and Osmon who were currently staying in the camp to help. He was taken away by the girl Leni, and Jules and Digren looked at him with politeness. Are these enough?"
Federic's face changed. The few in front of him could be regarded as the little girl's nonsense. Although the fourth princess in front of him was not a person who likes to exaggerate, the names behind him were all real. Decades of intelligence work made him very clear about the weight of these people. Even if he had the ninth level of strength, he could not easily touch all of them.
"Don't believe it, right? Then I'll tell you one more thing. I believe that you have also investigated his first appearance in the Newcorun Forest. A fire burned the forest to a ugly gap... Well, I wonder if you have noticed his space ring. Guess why my father and uncle were so nice to him?" Fei Luna pretended to be confused and deliberately added a little more.
"He~ He is a disciple of Ron Sicres? No, how is this possible? Didn't that old guy keep recuperating?" Federic was really at a loss this time. Although he was unwilling to believe it, all signs showed that everything was true. More importantly, the Kingdom could not lose the support of an eighth-level magic saint without him, the eighth-level shadow.
