Chapter 212: borrow a knife to kill
?? "Come on!"
??Looking at the back of Xiao En leaving, the eldest princess showed a sneer at the corner of her mouth, and called out, and immediately a young woman in a housekeeper's uniform appeared in front of her.
?? "Go and invite the Hachioji!"
"yes."
??The young woman in butler uniform responded respectfully.
?? Not long after, a handsome young man with short black hair came to this gazebo. He glanced at the eldest princess sitting in the gazebo, sat on the other side unceremoniously, and said.
?? "It's really strange that the elder sister would meet me alone!"
?? "We are siblings after all, so it's not unusual to see each other alone, right?"
??The eldest princess smiled coquettishly.
?? "Siblings?!"
??A handsome young man with short black hair showed a sneer of contempt.
Being in the royal family, there is no family affection at all. If you believed in family affection, you would have been eaten to the bone, especially since he, the eldest princess, the seventeenth princess, and the twelve princes, who are members of the throne The powerful competitors are even more powerful, and the relationship between them is even worse than that of ordinary people.
??Didn't care about Hachioji's sarcasm, the Eldest Princess continued with the same expression on her face.
?? "The eighth brother should be wondering how the two legends under him died?"
"It's you?"
??Hachioji's eyes suddenly revealed a thick cold color.
??In the past few days, he has been thinking about how the seventeenth princess killed the two legends under him.
It stands to reason that the legends of Seventeen's subordinates are all under his surveillance. Even if he has subordinates who are proficient in disguise, considering the scarcity of disguise talents, Seventeen can replace himself with subordinates who are proficient in disguise. It is the limit, it is absolutely impossible to replace the other legendary subordinates with people who are proficient in disguise, so how did Seventeen use the limited manpower to kill the two legendary subordinates under him? Even making it too late for them to escape?
??But if there is a third or even fourth party involved, it will be different. Hearing the princess mention it, he couldn't help but think of the princess in front of him. If she takes action, he can indeed kill his two legendary subordinates.
?? "It makes me sad that the eighth brother would suspect that I did it."
??The princess looked innocent.
?? "If I did it, do you think I will meet you alone?"
?? "Tell me, why you asked me to come."
??The Eighth Prince's tone was cold, and he didn't believe what the eldest princess said. If he believed what others said, without his own judgment, it would be impossible for him to live until now.
?? "Of course, although I did not kill the two legends under your command, I do know who did it."
??Seeing that the Hachi Prince was already impatient, the Eldest Princess knew it was time to get down to business.
?? "Who is it? You won't tell me it was Twelve Strikes, will you?"
?? Still doubting the eldest princess in his heart, the eighth prince asked casually.
?? "No, it's seventeen!"
??The eldest princess shook her head and said.
?? "Do you think I'll believe it?"
Hearing this answer, the cold expression on the Eighth Prince's face became even colder. Based on his previous judgment, the one who was least likely to kill his two subordinates was the Seventeenth Princess. After all, all the legendary subordinates of the other party were under his control. Under surveillance.
?? "I can only say that Seventeen hid too deeply. I'm not afraid to tell you that the two legends who died there that day were not the only ones under your command. A legend under mine also died there!"
??The eldest princess said seriously.
"What…?"
??The expression on Hachi Prince's face changed, and then he shook his head again.
?? "It's even more impossible to kill three legends!"
?? "Under normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible, but what if Seventeen has a superb weapon in his hand, and the person he hires has a legendary combat power?"
??The eldest princess looked at Hachioji and said.
?? "Peerless weapon, mid-level legendary combat power?"
??Hachi Prince's pupils shrank, and his eyes showed shock. If it is true as the princess said, it is indeed possible to do it.
??But let’s not say that Seventeen owns a superb weapon, does the person he hired really have the combat power of a median legend at such a young age?
?? "Do you suspect that person's combat power is not at the mid-level legend? Or doubt the authenticity of my words?"
?? Seemingly seeing Hachioji's suspicion, the Eldest Princess continued.
?? "The injury on one of the legends was beheaded in the middle, right?"
?? "Your men...were there?"
??Hearing this, the eighth prince suddenly raised his head and looked at the eldest princess.
?? To actually know how one of the legends was beheaded, there is no doubt that the eldest princess should have subordinates there at that time.
?? A moment later, the eighth prince left with a livid face. Looking at the back of the other party leaving, the young woman in housekeeper's clothes frowned slightly and asked.
?? "Your Highness, wouldn't the Eighth Prince see such an obvious murder with a borrowed knife?"
?? "Of course he can see that."
?? There was a meaningful smile on the corner of the eldest princess's mouth.
?? "However, it is a fact that his men were killed by the other party. Even if he sees my intention to kill people with a knife, he will definitely do it."
??Back to the banquet hall, Sean found that there were more than ten people in the banquet hall. From the names of these people around him, Sean learned that these people were other princes and princesses of the Kolben Empire.
?? Sean glanced at these people. They were born in the largest "noble" family, the royal family of the Colburn Empire. These people, male or female, are all extremely handsome, and their talents are also extraordinary.
?? Either possess top-level knight talent, or have advanced knight talent and primary bloodline talent. Although they are inferior to the eldest princess, eighth prince, and seventeenth princess, they are still extremely remarkable.
??Suddenly, Sean frowned slightly, a little puzzled in his heart.
??As far as he knows, the outside world judges that the Eldest Princess, the Eighth Prince, the Seventeenth Princess, and the Twelfth Prince are equally talented, but among these people, there is no one who can compare with these three in terms of talent.
?? "What's wrong? Brother Sean?"
??Seeing Sean return to the banquet hall, the girl Eve hurried over. She wanted to test Sean's tone and see if the princess's solicitation was successful. Seeing Sean frown, she couldn't help asking curiously.
"nothing."
?? Sean shook his head and said.
?? "I'm just curious, among these people, which one is the twelve princes who can be compared with the seventeenth princess, the eighth prince, and the eldest princess?"
??Hearing what Sean said, the girl Eve showed a hint of secretiveness on her face, and asked with a smile.
?? "Then which one of them do you think is?"
?? "I don't think so."
?? Sean frowned slightly.
?? "Brother Xiao En, you have really good eyesight!"
??There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the young girl Eve.
?? "The Twelve Princes are indeed not there. In fact, the Twelve Princes generally don't attend this kind of banquets. Except for the banquets held by the palace every year, you basically don't see him at other times."
?? "It turned out to be like this."
?? There was a hint of surprise on Xiao En's face. He didn't expect that the twelfth prince, who can be compared with the eldest princess, the eighth prince, and the seventeenth princess, would live so reclusively.
??In the middle of the night, two figures in black robes were flying fast in the sky. The two were floating in the air without the slightest weight, just like two ghosts.
?? These are the two wizards in black robes who once fought against Sean, Princess Seventeen, and Karl.
??After escaping from the hands of the three of Xiao En, the two rushed on the road overnight, hoping to escape from the Colburn Empire as soon as possible.
?? "How long will it take to leave the territory of the Kolben Empire?"
??The black-robed wizard with the broken arm looked at the black-robed wizard holding the map and asked.
The secret route they entered into the Kolben Empire was bought from a human being, and it was through this secret route that they sneaked into the Kolben Empire, and now they are planning to escape from Kolben Empire as soon as possible along this route This empire.
?? "It's almost time, at most one hour before leaving the territory of the Kolben Empire!"
??The black-robed wizard holding a map replied.
"That's good."
The black-robed wizard with the broken arm let out a sigh of relief. As long as they can escape from the Kolben Empire, they will be considered truly safe. The pursuers sent by the Kolben Empire to chase them will never dare to chase them Imperial, because they don't know whether there is an ambush outside the country.
"not good!"
??Suddenly, the expressions of the two black-robed wizards changed, and they suddenly looked back.
??Behind them, a figure shrouded in white light galloped towards this side quickly. The terrifying speed brought a terrifying howling sound, and it almost instantly passed them and stopped in front of them.
??They looked up and saw a rather old human elder in the hazy white light, looking at them coldly.
?? "Two little stealing mice, where do you want to escape?"
??The voice of the visitor was obviously old.
?? "Why did the pursuers come so fast?"
??The expressions of the two black-robed wizards changed drastically. Although they knew that the Kolben Empire would definitely send pursuers, they never expected that the pursuers would come so quickly.
??They didn't know that one of the people who had fought against them was someone who could directly pass the news to the current emperor.
?? Whoosh, Whoosh!
?? Without hesitation, both of them used their strongest witchcraft to attack the old man who blocked the way.
??A huge orange-red fireball with a diameter of ten meters roared out with terrifying heat.
??A cyan wind blade with a length of more than ten meters, came later and slashed out quickly.
?? Facing the attack, the power of the attack was all witchcraft at the median legendary level. The old man shrouded in white light looked calm, touched the knife at his waist, and then slashed out.
??Chick, Chick!
??A knife light with a length of tens of meters across, the huge fireball was planed in half in an instant, and the huge wind blade shattered as if hitting extremely hard alloy metal.
With one blow, he broke two wizards whose power was comparable to that of the median legend. In terms of attack power alone, this person was much stronger than Sean. , embarrassed.
?? "A high-level legend?!"
?? Seeing this scene, the expressions of the two black-robed wizards changed drastically, which meant that they knew too well that the other party definitely had the combat power of a high-ranking legend.
?? "Escape separately!"
??Looking at each other, the two fled one by one to the left and the other to the right. This is impossible to defeat, so they can only escape separately, hoping to escape one person.
?? Shua!
??But at the next moment, the two were terrified, because the old man shrouded in white light had appeared in front of them, and then cut across their bodies with a knife.
??The opponent's speed was so fast that they didn't even have time to escape!
??The moment they were about to die, they knew that they were wrong. They were very wrong. This is not a high-ranking legend at all, but a titled legend!
??Ren and they never expected that the empire would respond so quickly, and they even sent a legend-level powerhouse to hunt down and kill them!
