Damn it.

They were still in the Prison of Bones, and the reason why they couldn't escape... was found.

It seems that next time he must not get "out of control" with this thing in his hand...

Thinking of this, Thales felt another throbbing pain and his expression was distorted.

"You look...bad?"

Marina noticed the prince's unusual pain and approached suspiciously holding a torch.

"Injured by that madman?"

No.

It's just the sequelae of the forced use of magic energy and the rejection of the crossbow.

Thales wiped his sweat and forced himself to curl his mouth while trembling:

"Yes."

"He hit hard."

Quick Rope still said nothing.

Marina leaned down and picked up a silver-edged sword from the ground.

"This is Ricky's sword."

Marina's brows slowly furrowed under the firelight.

Thales' heart clenched again.

Marina looked at him steadily, her eyes getting colder and colder:

"I saw the mark on that madman's face, the same as Samir - what happened to Ricky and the others?"

Thales pursed his lips. While enduring the pain, he had to deal with the person in front of him. This was really exhausting for him, and he felt like his head was getting bigger.

What could he say?

Sorry, your boss got a hole in his head by my friend?

"He..." he hissed.

At this moment, Kuai Rope screamed in surprise!

"wrong!"

The rookie mercenary stared at Marina with wide eyes, pointed at Thales on the wall, and said in horror:

"He's...your nose is bleeding!"

Thales subconsciously touched his nose, and sure enough, his hand felt moist.

Oops.

That's it again.

He felt dizzy, leaned against the wall, and slid to the ground, trembling.

Marina frowned.

Quick Rope took two steps forward in shock and supported Thales.

"What happened to you?"

"This," the prince smiled weakly:

"Ha, the Bright Star royal family is more or less a bit different."

Bright Star Royal Family.

When Marina heard this phrase, her face darkened again.

"No, we have to do something, he doesn't look good."

Quick Rope looked worried, and he turned to Marina:

"Ma'am? Please look this way, I'll look for his luggage..."

Marina looked at Thales with complicated eyes, then looked at the sword in her hand, and finally sighed and walked forward holding a torch.

"The prince named Canxing."

Looking at Thales with a painful expression on his face, Marina said softly:

"Just now, you saved my life."

"Why?"

Thales tried his best to twitch the corners of his mouth, and squeezed out a few joking words in a cold sweat:

"Maybe, maybe because I don't like killing people? Maybe, it's also because you are a woman and very beautiful? So according to the knight novel, I am destined to be weak..."

Then I will take you into my harem.

Thales felt another pain in his heart, which made him tighten his facial features again and bite off the life-threatening joke in his mouth.

But Marina ignored his teasing, and the girl who had a bad temper before didn't get angry either.

She just looked at him quietly:

"You know, we have grudges - whether it's the past of the bloody year or the festival in the tavern."

Thales snorted coldly. He was tortured by pain and didn't pay much attention to his tone:

"So I have to kill you? Or stand by and gloat as you get killed?"

Marina paused, her expression struggling.

"But your father will."

The female swordsman in red hesitated and said: "Just like eighteen years ago, he ordered my family to be hanged."

Now it was Thales' turn to be speechless.

But the next moment, Marina seemed to have made up her mind. She suddenly raised her head and looked at the prince with burning eyes.

"Seb Norfolk," the girl whispered:

"He is my uncle and a member of the Star Legion. He was the bodyguard of the late Duke John of Star Lake - and the person who murdered him."

Taylor was stunned for a moment.

Seb Norfolk.

And the Duke of Star Lake.

What's the meaning?

Thales stared at her blankly. With his attention distracted, the pain in his body no longer seemed so unbearable.

"you……"

"Listen," Marina stared at him with eager eyes, as if staring at a life-saving straw:

"If you return to Yongxing City, Prince Thales, if you are really different from your bastard father, if you really care about the blood of innocent people..."

"Please investigate this matter and find out the truth."

Marina's eyes slowly turned red, and Thales was so shocked that he was at a loss what to do:

"Find the truth behind Duke John's assassination in Sodala City during the Year of Blood."

Duke John…

Thales frowned.

"My father, Lanzar Norfolk, heir to the honorary Earl of Norfolk."

"Until he went to the gallows, he had been secretly serving the kingdom's secret department," Marina gritted her teeth and said with trembling words:

"On the third day after King Eddie was assassinated, and also on the eve of Duke John's assassination, my father privately released a messenger crow."

"This is the only clue I have had for many years."

Thales trembled slightly.

Kingdom Secrets.

The third day after King Eddie was assassinated...

That is to say...

"I have been wandering for many years and I am alone. I can only seize all my strength and use all means, but I can't find anything and can't do anything." Marina's lips trembled and her chest heaved, seeming to suppress her emotions:

"But you are the prince and the future king. You must be able to do more than me."

"I beg you."

Marina bit out the last word from her teeth with almost red eyes. She didn't know how much struggle and struggle she had gone through.

At this moment, the sound of the fast rope came from the luggage area:
