Chapter 396 The Dark Side(1/3)

 There was a moment of silence in the "My House" tavern, and you could hear a pin drop.

The mercenaries, or in other words, the Swords of Disaster, all looked at the fair-skinned man who spoke such shocking words with disbelief.

"Heir to the Kingdom of Stars..."

Amidst countless gasps, Sonny, the mercenary behind Marina, hummed:

"I thought it was crazy just because we wanted to rob a prison."

Thales saw that after the driller revealed that astonishing goal, Ricky, as "Crasus", frowned to an extreme degree. The Northlander Clay beside him stopped wiping his scabbard.

The cold light in the masked man's eyes became more and more threatening.

Sword of Disaster, Thales had also heard of this organization.

But what he heard more was another name: Tower of the End.

After the Ending War, it has been working tirelessly to cultivate various warriors for mankind for thousands of years, inheriting skills and preparing for war in this legendary holy land.

Among the people Thales knew, including Cohen, Miranda, Wyatt, and others, they all spent a lot of time in the Tower of the End and learned their skills there. Over the years, this place has become too famous.

, so that everyone is accustomed to calling swordsmen who have the power of termination and use the representative long sword (favored by the nobles) "Terminator Swordsmen", whether in the mercenary camp on the border or the local city defense team,

Just mention "spent time in the Tower of the End" and you will soon become a hot commodity among major employers.

That's what the Sword of Disaster called them, and this name made Thales extremely uneasy. According to Wyatt's hearsay, they were the mortal enemies of the Tower of the End.

so……

Thales secretly sighed in his heart: They could plan a prison robbery in the Blade Fang camp without hesitation, and even come into contact with the taboo Shadow Shield.

"It's over, it's over, the second prince..." Tampa looked like he was giving up on himself, "Anyway, can you not say such a big thing so openly... I still want to come back and sell wine safely...

…”

Thales and Quick Rope exchanged glances, feeling each other's two completely different moods.

As for the focus of the crowd, Dozi accepted everyone's attention calmly, as if it didn't matter.

"Your discipline and organization are beyond my imagination." He rubbed his hands and smiled modestly in the face of so many strange looks: "Even in front of so many people and facing such a big secret, you

But I’m not worried at all…”

Tampa's plaintive complaint was interrupted.

"You want him dead."

The masked man who spoke little stood up abruptly.

He slowly approached the drill, and his wrinkled eyes burst out with a light that was difficult to look at: "Prince of the Stars?"

Thales swallowed his throat.

"If possible, try to capture him alive." The driller smiled, as gentle and courteous as ever.

"Capture alive?"

The masked man walked up to the driller and looked down into his eyes: "You mean, we are going to break through the siege and capture the prince of a prince at the military station of the Kingdom of Stars, and then risk their countless armies to pursue and encircle him.

Du, take that Jingui hostage and evacuate safely?"

Thales noticed that there was a hint of indignation and anger in his words.

Marina on the side couldn't help but said: "This is simply impossible."

The man frowned and looked at the masked man. He slowly backed away from his aggressive approach, guessing his identity in his mind.

"I didn't say it was easy," the man from Shadow Shield shrugged, getting out of the way of the masked man, and glanced at the mercenaries in the tavern with a smile: "But at least it's not as difficult as robbing the Bone Cage."

At that moment, the masked man suddenly stretched out his hand!

Snapped.

He pressed the driller's shoulders.

The driller's face suddenly turned pale, and the area where he was pressed trembled slightly.

He shook violently, and clasped the masked man's arm with his left hand, trying to push him away.

But the opponent's arm seemed to be cast into metal and remained motionless.

"Because you can't do it on your own," the masked man slowly exerted force on his hand, causing the trembling drill to inhale in a hissing voice, "so you want us to serve as a bait and buffer to your death, to achieve this for you."

Target."

Zhuozi looked at the masked man in front of him in disbelief, but the mercenaries who were watching just frowned, and no one spoke to stop him.

The atmosphere in the tavern became more and more suffocating, and Thales, who was watching, became more and more anxious.

What to do in this case?

"Not a bait, but a reliable foreign aid."

The driller gritted his teeth and endured the restraint and coercion of the masked man, but still insisted on speaking: "At the same time, we will also provide you with our resources...in a perfect plan...to capture the Bone Prison and the Brilliance at the same time."

The Star Princes…cover each other, kill two birds with one stone…help each other.”

His words were sporadic.

The masked man snorted: "Is that all?"

"Nothing else?"

In the unbearable pain, Dong Zi forced out a forced smile:

"Perhaps it will also be a good start for our future cooperation?"

The mercenaries in the tavern stared at this scene quietly, as if they were used to such scenes.

Snapped.

A palm rested on the masked man's shoulder.

The masked man frowned slightly:

Ricky stood beside him, shaking his head with a calm expression.

The man looked at the drill with a painful expression, sneered slightly, then let go of his hand and stepped back.

The driller breathed a sigh of relief, leaned forward, and rubbed his shoulders with an unnatural expression.

Damn it.

He knew that he was in a weak position in this self-initiated negotiation.

but……

"Why?"

Ricky replaced the masked man and stood in front of the drill.

"Eighteen years ago, you destroyed the Bright Star royal family, no matter the cost, no room was spared, and even the side branches were affected."

Thales was suddenly shocked by these words.

The leader of the Sword of Disaster said calmly: "Everyone in the circle is guessing who the patrons behind you are, those guys who want the Bright Star royal family to be exterminated."

"Now, you are telling me that you want to capture the last Prince of Bright Star alive?"

"Why?" Ricky stood still in front of the drill, staring at his stiff right arm: "What are Teng and the people behind him thinking and what do they want to do?"

"Could it be that...the so-called imperial blood that has been passed down to this day is really as brilliant as gold and can cure all diseases?"

Clay behind him laughed sarcastically.

The driller showed an ugly smile.

"Dear Crassus, why do you care about this?"

Even at such a disadvantage, even after experiencing such an unceremonious threat, the driller's courage still surprised Thales: "Your goal is just the Bone Cage. With all due respect, this is almost destined to anger the stars.

The kingdom cannot be tolerated by King Kessel."

"In this case, on the basis of better achieving the goal, turning to help their enemies and shaking their political situation, isn't it a wise move that is in line with their interests?"

The masked man behind Ricky sneered.

"Then, they pushed us completely to the opposite side of the Star Kingdom and had to board your pirate ship."

The masked man clenched his fists: "Just like the Flower of Assassins eighteen years ago, the Sarriton family."

Sarriton.

This name, which he had not heard for a long time, made Thales fall into deep thought.

The drill boy's smile remains the same.

"Sometimes, when you want something, you have to choose a side: either this side or that side."

He still had that kind "I'm sorry but that's just the way it is" look.

Like a dedicated, hard-working but helpless tutor.

"Besides, you have already made your choice: when you hijack this tavern and plan to further rob the prison."
