Chapter 399. Sacrifice
Prince Joshua almost rolled his eyes at the smell, but he suppressed his disgust and asked,
"Why a win-win situation? What are you planning?"
"Don't worry, I'll handle it. After seeing the name list, you will naturally understand... The people on the list, in layman's terms, all have balls, but for you, they're time bombs."
Char said meaningfully.
As he said that, realization dawned on Joshua.
Although he did not look at the name list, it was as if faces had already appeared in front of him.
The current forces in the Army were those who had not participated in the fight against the Giants, so they were well preserved. But this didn't mean that everyone in the team was willing to be such a coward and enjoy the peace that other people's sacrifice brought.
In fact, at the beginning of the battle, there was a conflict between the troops at the back. Many troublemakers could not accept the humiliation and hid. They wanted to rush out to help the front line, but in the end, they were stopped by those who were afraid of death.
Based on Char's words, most of the people on the list were probably 'thorns'.
In other words, the person who was chosen by Prisilia was highly similar to the thorn who had a sense of honor.
This was too ironic...
This was not a coincidence. It was almost inevitable. It was because of the Dark Elves 'tradition that they served Prisilia and wanted to go out to protect the Queen who came to the front lines...
A gender conflict?
Joshua had no choice but to avoid this question, unwilling to associate it with the noble character of an individual.
So, he had to admit that Char was once again thinking from his perspective.
Even if these people did not pledge their loyalty to Prisilia, they were like time bombs hidden in the team. Perhaps one day, they would betray the team like that unfilial son Astlow...
However, if he followed Char's words and left with the pavilion, he would be able to deal with this group of people.
He could even use the Queen's name to force them to leave willingly. This could not only deal with Prisilia, but also strengthen his own forces... This was killing two birds with one stone.
No, wait...
'His so-called "win-win" was all about me?'
Joshua was shocked, and he looked at Char in shock.
"It seems you understand." Char raised an eyebrow at him. "I didn't include my 'win'."
"I promise you."
Joshua no longer hesitated and finally nodded.
He raised his hand again and gestured for the soldiers around him to retreat.
The two of them had been delayed for so long that the others in the group were already a little impatient. When they saw the Prince finally raise his hand again, they all perked up.
However, this time, he saw a retreat order...
"What do you mean?"
Other than the nightmare Knights headquarters, the others were all dumbfounded.
"What is the Prince afraid of?"
"Of course, I'm afraid of that guy!"
However, other than this disgusting smell, does this guy have any other means? "
"What did they say?"
Amidst the whispers, Meir suddenly stepped forward and looked at Prince Qiao.
"Soldiers, don't retreat!"
He stood out with a strong sense of righteousness.
From the looks of it, he was just short of saying something like "my dear Joshua, don't worry and go. I will lead the team to victory."
"Don't you see that His Highness the Prince is being held hostage by that bastard? how can we let that bastard have his way now? Where's your sense of honor? Where is your dignity?"please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m
Meir said righteously.
His voice echoed through the battlefield under the loudspeaker, and it seemed so ... It was unique.
The soldiers were stunned.
Prince Joshua was also stunned.
Then, he gritted his teeth in hatred.
Mier, that idiot!!!
How could he not understand what was going on!
The internal structure of the woman's enemy was not as solid as it seemed. After all, they were Dark Elves, and infighting was an old tradition. The reason why Bloom was the leader was that he was the most experienced and had the most tricks up his sleeve. Who wouldn't want to be the leader?
Now that Bloom was dead and Joshua was being held hostage, Meir probably felt that there was no better chance than this.
In other words, he felt that this was a sure win. Would he not have to first kill a child before splitting the cake?
"My orders are useless."
It was hard to tell whether Joshua was mocking himself or lamenting.
"In that case, do as you see fit, sir."
He threw the mess to Char, gloating at her misfortune.
It was outrageous. He probably felt that he had been in a passive position all this time, and now he finally took the initiative, so he had even forgotten the identity of the hostage.
Although Joshua's words suited Joshua's personality and made him feel very comfortable, the pride in his bones did not allow this ambitious person to easily trust him, let alone think of a temporary Alliance.
The current situation that Shaya was in was what he wanted to see the most.
[I've said everything you wanted me to say. It's useless.]
[If I fail, it's not my fault.]
Anyway, the stench was already there, and this group of people was going to take a shower soon. Even if Shaya did not give him a list, he could still pick out a group of them one by one, just that the scene was a little strange.
Well, it was strange to think about it.
Naturally, Char understood what this old fox was thinking.
"You asked for this. Don't regret it, Your Highness."
He sneered and gently waved his hand. The blood on the invisible dagger was pulled into a line, and the blood-stained outline suddenly elongated, turning into a single-handed sword!
Then, he kicked Prince Joshua away while he held the one-handed sword with both hands and slashed forward with all his might!
The blood on the sword was completely thrown out by this force, mixing with the air blade in the air, forming a speeding blood sword that flew straight toward Meir.
The average level of the soldiers present was not low. How could they watch such an attack hit their master? They immediately formed a human wall and raised their weapons to intercept.
However, the sword was so fast that only two advanced guards managed to block it.
However, a strange scene happened. The senior guards were all passed by the blood sword, but there was no wound, not even a trace of blood...
They could only watch helplessly as the blood Sword, which had been weakened twice, clanked through a row of colorful shields and stabbed straight into Meir's body.
The sound of the blood sword entering the body was so beautiful, and Meir fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.
He could not be more dead.
The huge battlefield fell silent in an instant.
Joshua, who had been sent flying by Char, had originally intended to escape. However, he could not help but freeze on the ground after witnessing the attack. He did not come back to his senses even when Char picked him up as a hostage again.
"Your words are effective now, Your Highness," Char said.
"Back off, all of you back off! Get out of my way!"
Joshua waved his hands vigorously.
