Chapter 12 Chaos
"It's so painful to end early," Ron swallowed his saliva behind his back, raised his glass, drank with Martin for a while, and his vigilance became more and more relaxed.
The banquet where Martin hosted Zhuo Dong had been in laughter and joy for a long time.
Ron was originally worried that Prince Martin would show great anger after the letter of rejection was sent. For this reason, Ron made a lot of preparations. If Martin attacked at the banquet, Ron specially prepared a teleportation position scroll. Since one scroll could only transmit four people, in order to meet the five people at the banquet, Ron later felt that one scroll was not enough, so he prepared an extra copy to prevent all the situations.
However, it seems that such a thing is not possible at the banquet. Martin's expression was normal, with a slight regretful expression, and reluctance to part. At the banquet, Martin invited Zhuo Dong again. After Ron's more tactful but clear decision, Martin seemed very free and easy. He also invited Zhuo Dong and Ron to visit the Kingdom of Baria at the convenience of convenience. Ron, who was secretly guilty, naturally agreed.
However, this emotion has been floating in Ron's heart, very awkward.
Not far away, Jackson and Zhuo Dong felt sympathy and met again after the appointment. The picture looked extremely warm and sad, but it was rarely the case on the surface.
I don’t know if Zhuo Dong is hypocritical, but Ron is thinking about it in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that he had a real hardship, perhaps Martin would be a good choice, Ron thought to himself. He hid the teleportation scroll deeply in his arms, fearing that others would see his misconduct, and he held up the wine glass, which had been touching the scroll's left hand.
The beautiful scenes are not the favorite of fate. After a while, a mage said a few words next to Martin.
Martin drank a glass of wine and ordered people to take a box. The box was a long sword, decorated with gorgeous decorations. It looked like at least two crystal cores above level eight were embedded in the handle. No one doubted the energy contained in the two crystal cores. In the blurred magic light of Jinlipu, the sword flashed with a lilac light, lying in the box to show its value.
Martin picked up the long sword, looked at the circle of people present, and said slowly: "This weapon was a gift from my father to me. Whenever each of us brothers and sisters celebrated our birthday, our father always gave us a gift."
Ron didn't know why Martin suddenly mentioned this topic, and he could only praise: "Your father must be a good father!"
Martin thanked: "Yes, he has always been a good father. Especially for me and my brother, only gifts can be given, and he has never been given double portions and will not be biased towards anyone."
"When I was a child, my brother and I lived together, whether it was studying or practicing. I always regarded him as my idol, because he was far superior to me in terms of martial arts and knowledge. Many times, he always took care of me and never treated me as a stupid brother. That time was really desirable."
Prince Martin seemed to remember his childhood, and his eyes were confused. No one disturbed his words. They vaguely understood that the prince wanted to express something.
"I don't know when it started, but our brothers have begun to become alienated. Like all royal families, fighting for that high position is the final fate of being a prince."
Ron felt the atmosphere of the banquet change subtly. He wanted to speak, but heard Martin continue, "When I was fifteen years old, I experienced three assassinations. Three of my personal bodyguards died, and my favorite maid did not escape the fourth time. Since then, our two brothers embarked on the road of no return. What belongs to him must not belong to me, and what belongs to me must not belong to him!"
Ron hurriedly stood up and said, "Your Highness, we have no intention of exploring the secrets of the royal family." Ron felt uneasy in his heart. A prince would tell you about the royal family's struggles, except that he was too broad-minded and had no lingering, trusting you extremely, or he thought you would not reveal the secret.
There are many kinds of people who will not reveal secrets. The one Ron is the most familiar with is the dead.
Martin did not look at him, but looked at Zhuo Dong with a sharp look. He ignored Ron, stroked the hilt of the sword in his hand, stared at Zhuo Dong and said, "This weapon originally belonged to you. Unfortunately, you did not belong to me this time."
Everyone was shocked and stood up in a hurry, without expecting that Martin would suddenly say such words. However, after the Ron mercenary team stood up, they swayed from afar and fell to the ground one after another.
"There is poison!" Zhuo Dong shouted in horror. He felt that his fighting spirit could not be lifted up at all, and his whole body was soft. He sat on the ground, and the sword was only very close to him, but he had no strength to go forward one inch. Then he heard Ron also fell beside him. None of the mercenary team stood in an instant.
"This is a specialty of the Kingdom of Baria, a poison that only the royal family has." Martinum had no expression. He looked at Ron and Zhuo Dong's puzzled gaze, and then said: "This poison is the wine you drink. Except for Baria's royal family, outsiders cannot resist it at all."
Everyone cursed, and Martin looked at them with a sneer.
Ron remembered that at the beginning of the banquet, Martin brought the fine wine that Martin brought. No wonder there was no problem after drinking it. I think the Barria royal family had a unique solution or antidote.
"Why?" Ron calmed down and asked, "Our mercenary team has no disrespect to His Highness."
"Rejecting me is disrespectful. If you want to know the truth, let my brother tell you in front of your grave!"
"Your brother?" A person flashed through Ron's heart. Could it be Jin An who met in the Black Forest? This thought flashed like lightning, and Ron shouted loudly: "Wait!".
The third prince waved his hand and Jackson's sword stabbed over, explaining that it was too late at this time.
The prince’s goal is Zhuo Dong. As long as Zhuo Dong dies, everything will be over.
With a metal clash, Ron stood up again and blocked Jackson's sword, but Ron's right hand was shaken open, and blood instantly sprinkled on the back of his hand. Ron's sword crossed his left hand and waved his sword again to block Jackson's sword stabbing Zhuo Dong.
"Hey, why are you not disturbed by poison?" The prince was also very curious. He looked at Ron who stood up again and was surprised. "As long as someone with fighting spirit and magic is not able to resist this poison."
It turns out that this kind of medicinal wine is specifically aimed at people who practice martial arts and magic. The higher the martial arts skills, the stronger the magic ability, and the more interference they will be. On the contrary, ordinary people who have never practiced martial arts are just a little weak and have the least impact.
At this time, the prince saw Jackson stabbing with a sword, and Ron blocked the sword, but his weapon was knocked away. He immediately understood, "So you have no fighting spirit!" Jackson also smiled and forced him up.
Losing his weapon, Ron threw a table at Jackson, jumped to Zhuo Dong, and covered his injured arm. Taking advantage of the inattention of everyone, he took the opportunity to pinch the teleportation scroll in his hand, crushed it quickly, and threw it at the four people behind him.
"The teleportation reel failed?"
There was no sign that the familiar light and teleportation array did not appear, and Ron's heart suddenly sank.
Jackson sneered and said, "It seems that you are not giving up. We have set up a magic circle here, and the space teleportation from it is prohibited."
"Damn it!"
Ron understood that the prince and the others had made sufficient preparations. The mage just now probably conveyed the signal that everything was ready to go. The people in his mercenary team no longer had combat power, and only he could move, but the teleportation scroll that he had hoped had also failed.
Martin's men, except Jackson, had not taken any action. Several mages were still standing there. They were always ready for other situations, guarding against Ron's other means to use them, and seemed to be very relieved about Jackson.
Indeed, even in Ron's opinion, Jackson, the level seven warrior, and the closed room that even the teleportation scroll were disabled, and the magical poison, there was nothing to worry about when dealing with them. He looked at Jackson who was walking over with a expressionless face with a sword, and felt powerlessness in his heart.
Seeing that the situation was settled, Martin stopped watching. He put away his weapons and seemed to sigh. The genius he had finally met was about to fall in his hands. This feeling was not a happy memory.
But the fatigue from the bottom of his heart had not yet risen, Martin's body shook violently and fell to the ground.
A sudden sound rang out in the room. A huge body broke through the roof, mixed with large pieces of debris and blood, and fell heavily between Ron and Jackson. Smoke and dust quickly spread, and scattered debris hit the people in the room in a mess. Both Martin and Ron were shocked by the accident, and the huge impact immediately overturned them to the ground.
A huge dragon head soaked in blood was right next to Ron. This was the only object in front of Ron that could see clearly. It seemed that the dragon was not dead yet. His eyes turned a few times, mixed with the dragon's unique howl, and his huge body struggled a few times, bringing up smoke and dust to the sky, drifting towards the roof of the house.
"Sky", this was the only thought in Ron's mind. He almost crushed the remaining teleportation scroll again at the same time, and threw it hard on Zhuo Dong and the other three people. Seeing the faint light covering the four of them, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Jennings!" At the same time, a voice in the air shouted angrily, resounding throughout Baiyue City!
