Chapter 706 In the name of the king(3/4)
"Tell your men to stand back and put away their weapons! We don't have to! At least not now!"
The next second, Miranda and Seychelles, who were on the front line of the confrontation, both frowned:
Knight Cassian appeared silently beside them.
"I'm not sure I'm going to put you at odds," Cassian sighed, "but I can guarantee, Seychelles, Ms. Arend, I will attack the person who takes the first step."
Miranda and Seychelles both frowned and looked at each other.
Seychelles snorted and took the first step back. Miranda breathed a sigh of relief and also stepped back.
The two parties then retreated slightly to make room for the three Dukes.
"Get out of the way, Heeley," Zhan scolded his sister, but his eyes did not leave Thales, "It's not your turn to speak now..."
"Shut up, brother," Xi Lai turned around and stabbed Zhan's direction fiercely with his finger, "This is all a trap you thought you were poking out! Trap, huh? More chips, huh? The overall situation is determined? Ha, ha.
,ha!"
Zhan En's face darkened.
Seeing this, Thales sighed and said, "Xilai, this matter really has nothing to do with you..."
Hilley turned around suddenly and pointed directly at Thales' head:
"Don't tell me this has nothing to do with me, little brat! If you don't come on the blind date, nothing will happen to me!"
Thales frowned.
After Hilley's arrogant grab for the white space, both sides looked at me and I looked at you, and the atmosphere became a little brighter.
Xi Lai tried to calm down his emotions and whispered to the two of them:
"Okay, I know, I know you don't like each other, but I don't force you to like each other..."
"No, Heeley, this is not just about my relationship with him..."
"I think he is just like his father. He likes the Emerald City very much..."
"Shut up!"
Hilley interrupted them angrily, causing both of them to pause.
She took a deep breath and tried her best to persuade the prince:
"Listen, Thales, I know that my brother Guan Ji is chaotic. He is unwilling to give up his existing advantages and spit out the meat he has eaten, but..."
Halfway through the words, Shilai sighed slowly:
"But, Thales, you have to understand that if you stand up now to support Federico's accusations: parricide, silence... By doing so, you will not only prevent Zhan from winning, but you will also force him to die."
Thales had a meal.
"I know, I understand, but please believe me, Xi Lai, this is only temporary. Only in this way can I control the situation, take the initiative, and choose to advance or retreat..."
"I guess that's what you told Anke Bailar, right?" Zhan sneered.
Thales' eyelids twitched.
"Use your usual hypocritical rhetoric - 'Please believe me', lie to him that you will help him and save him. Only then will he be tricked into putting down his weapons and go into prison obediently. Only then will his heart be relieved.
You who are good at seeing others suffer, how can you not see them?"
Thales trembled all over and slowly raised his head.
"Jane!"
Xi Lai turned around, his expression suddenly turned fierce:
"I told you to shut up!"
But she was too late, and the prince's eyes completely darkened.
"I told you, don't mention his name." Thales looked at Zhan who was sneering expressionlessly.
"Who?" Zhan deliberately said sarcastically, "Oh, you mean Anke, Anke Bailar? The unlucky guy in the Western Wilderness who was sent to the Bone Prison by your kindhearted man and will never see the light of day for the rest of his life?"
Xi Lai felt a splitting headache:
"Ah, I don't know what old grudges you have and how you got it, but I know it must be stupid, so can you..."
Thales smiled.
"That letter, Jenn."
Thales chuckled and said:
"That letter you wrote to my father, which was groveling, servile, flattering and begging for peace, was torn up by my own hands."
Zhan En's eyes narrowed.
"Right in the imperial meeting, in front of him, torn into pieces."
Thales sneered:
"That's why I was able to get his permission to come here so that you can see with your own eyes: how I brought you..."
"Tiles!"
Hilley turned around and interrupted, in disbelief.
But she was also late. Zhan looked at Thales with eyes that were both complicated and relieved.
At the end, he actually showed an ominous smile.
"Very good, very good." Zhan clapped gently and nodded his chin towards Seychelles.
Seychelles understood what the Duke of South Bank meant. He glanced sarcastically at Cassian, who was making the argument, and then ordered:
"Emerald Legion, assist the Security Department, clear obstacles, and escort prisoners!"
Whoosh!
The next second, the Emerald Sergeants in the front row unsheathed their weapons and pointed at Miranda from afar!
Whoosh!
On the Star Lake Guard side, Glover roared and drew his sword and stepped forward, while Rolf and Morgan followed closely with ruthless faces. The three of them stood beside Miranda and faced Seychelles and his without fear.
sergeants.
Although there was a huge disparity in numbers, the confrontation between the Star Lake Guards and the Emerald Legion was of great significance. Starting from those near them, many spectators were frightened and the crowd was in commotion.
"what happens?"
"Did the deal break down?"
"Oops, I thought they had a good relationship..."
"If you want to rush the card, you have to squeeze out even if you have to squeeze out!"
Rumors spread and panic gradually spread throughout the arena, making it increasingly difficult for the guards and security officers to maintain order.
At the center of the conflict, Thales and Zhan are close at hand. One side is firm and the other is ruthless.
"Um, can we get up there?" D.D from the Star Lake Guard team asked cautiously.
"Of course -" Nixi drew her sword and stepped forward, but was pulled back.
"Protect Your Highness!" Huaiya let go of him and said with a sullen face.
"Zhan, please, don't force me." Thales looked at the Duke of South Bank who was right in front of him and shook his head slowly.
But Zhan had a cold face:
"Who is forcing whom?"
Thales narrowed his eyes.
"And when you turned over the table, you realized," Zhan said softly, "that you didn't have as many chips as I did?"
Thales frowned.
"Your Highness, I know it's disappointing to say this at this time, but..."
Huaiya took two steps forward and came behind Thales. He looked around with concern and saw the Emerald Legion lined up in a menacing manner.
"We have a small number and are at a disadvantage. We cannot defeat them."
Thales turned his eyes.
"Chips," he chuckled, keeping his eyes on Zhan across from him, "My lord Duke, did you just say, chips?"
Zhan En's expression remained unchanged and he remained silent.
The next second, Thales took a step forward, and under everyone's nervous eyes, he stepped closer to Zhan:
"You're right, Jenn! Federico misjudged the situation, and his accusations went unanswered because they lacked a leader."
Thales came to him with a stern expression:
"A leader of sufficient weight."
Zhan En's eyes changed slightly.
