Conrad's short beard moved, and his smile gradually widened. He didn't even think about taking back the two tokens first. The restless waiting for most of the day brought his vigilance to the lowest point at this time, and all he thought about was How to extract information about Spider Forest.
In the case of unequal information, he could not rush to talk about the transaction. He mobilized his utmost patience, observed the micro-expressions on Mo Bei's face, and thought about the next conversation.
After Mo Bei got the two things, he felt it was boring. He didn't have the patience to look at Conrad for a second time, but the other party kept looking at his face, which made him feel disgusted and immediately coughed.
Conrad only thought that this slight cough was Mo Bei clearing his throat for a formal conversation, but he never thought that this was a signal for Akali to take action.
The undetectable sound of breaking wind made the hairs on his back suddenly stand up, but this was only the only reaction that his youthful experience allowed him to make. Years of drunkenness, numbness, and lack of psychological preparation made his reaction The speed couldn't keep up with Akali's movements.
"laugh!"
The long nails were wrapped in dark golden light and penetrated the defense, skin and flesh, sticking to the spine and piercing from the back to the heart.
Conrad's eyes widened. He never imagined that this lunatic would attack him. Did he not consider the consequences of such a thing at all? ?
Kane was clearly standing by, so how could this old man allow him to do this? Could it be that he is also old and confused? ?
As soon as his figure appeared in the courtyard with a ray of lightning, a cold and biting feeling spread in the heart, even completely covering up the pain of heart trauma.
In his consciousness, there was only an abyss swallowing everything, and then it completely dissipated.
The body in rich clothes fell softly on the brick ground covered with a layer of rainwater, lifeless.
This surprising change made the subordinates holding heavy shields completely unbelievable, but they had already reacted.
Four of them rushed forward before Conrad completely fell to the ground, and the rest immediately turned around and formed a formation, preparing to block the four Mo Bei people in the meeting hall.
As soon as they turned around, they saw a storm of swords sweeping over, as fast as lightning!
Instant Shadow Slash!
The four stages of charge completely tore apart the defensive formation that had not yet been formed. Some of the subordinates barely used the heavy shields in their hands to block the slashes. Before they could stabilize their staggering figures and retreat, they were violently slashed from behind. Knocked to the ground, he couldn't even capture the opponent's specific actions.
To them, the Divine Word of Glory was a weapon with unparalleled lethality. Coupled with the crushing blow of the power of the Divine Word, the twelve heavy-shield retinues suffered heavy casualties within two breaths, without even the thought of counterattack. It also turned into trembling fear as the formation collapsed.
Akali had also rushed through the gap opened by Mo Bei. The moment the four subordinates who were still preparing to treat Conrad turned around to block him, she turned around and quickly took away Conrad's body.
This scene made all the subordinates feel despair. The only thing that could be put away was the corpse.
Conrad, whom they wanted to protect, died before they could react!
There are only two fates that greet them. One is to die in battle, or to beg for mercy and live in exile. Because even if they brought the murderer back to Caldeum, they would not be able to escape the punishment of failure to protect him.
They still remembered that after the prince's legitimate daughter was accidentally injured while outing, all the guards around her quickly disappeared and never showed up again. Now, the prince himself has been assassinated, and they have no choice but to die when they return to Kartim City.
"We surrender! Please stop!"
"We will die even if we return to Kartim. We will stay away from Kejistan. Please..."
These people immediately shouted out, hoping to save their lives.
But the words were cut off by the sharp sword, and Mo Bei had no intention of stopping.
Because these people had to be killed, and even Black knew the inhumane behavior of many nobles. As Conrad's personal followers, how could these people not be clear about it? The current surrender behavior made Mo Bei even more certain that their Character.
There is no honor or position to speak of. Such people are everywhere. Many people who change jobs may still be enthusiastic when they first change jobs, but there are too many factors that can change them.
When they find that sometimes they go through life and death in the wild, and the trophies they harvest are not enough for the maintenance of equipment, their enthusiasm may gradually cool down. Being able to persist in training is already valuable as a human being.
There are people like Ramsay and others who are trying to turn around the predicament and move on, there are people who join the local guards to maintain a stable status quo, and there are people who disband the team and go their separate ways.
We cannot require everyone to aim to rush to the front line and work hard for the day when the forces of hell are completely defeated. After all, everyone has their own ambitions, and their abilities and potentials are also different.
These followers were either trained by the great nobles, or they helped others do evil for money. It is very likely that such people would completely degenerate after going into exile.
Mo Bei's eyes were cold and stern, and he joined forces with Akali to kill all the remaining followers without any hesitation.
Kane witnessed the massacre without saying a word, sighing slightly in his heart, but he completely agreed with Mo Bei's approach.
Blake felt a little cramped in his calf, but his heart was filled with infinite admiration. The Duke of their kingdom really lived up to his reputation.
Since he was not wearing any armor, Mo Bei was slightly injured under the desperate counterattack of those people. Akali had a shield in her hand and was not in the center of the battle. She was unharmed. She held a holy light bullet in her palm and touched Mo Bei's back, causing a long sword wound to heal quickly.
Mo Bei smiled at her, then leaned down and checked the equipment on these people. He was a little disappointed when he found that none of them were good things.
A lot of equipment is even manufactured in batches and is standard equipment. It looks neat, but its combat effectiveness is not very good.
However, these equipment must be put away specially, and after repairs, the palace guards brought by Blake can be replaced, otherwise it will be suspicious if Conrad is left as a polished commander.
"Elder Eco, I have to trouble you for the next refining. Do you need me to stay and help you look after the little spider? Does the refining process require the presence of the controller?"
Mo Bei looked at Eco and asked, in the plan, the control of Conrad's puppet should still be given to Perona, who has strong mental power and is the fastest learner in this regard.
"The controller does not need to be present. You can re-control the puppet after it is ready, but it would be best if you can help." Eco walked into the dozen corpses and said:
"Give me these corpses too. The more of these things, the better."
"Your Excellency, if you don't mind, I can do it for you. Anyway, I have nothing to do until the puppet is finished."
Blake actively offered to help feed the spiderlings, and had already started doing so.
As for his negotiation work, the plan was to wait until Conrad was made into a puppet and perform a show in front of everyone. This was not to deceive Asila and the others, but to show Conrad the person who secretly conveyed the message.
Fortunately, the production of the puppet will not take more than two days. If Conrad is missing for more than three days, many people who are secretly paying attention will definitely have suspicions, which may even affect the next action.
Blake said and walked directly forward to collect all the bodies.
"Leave the repairs of these equipment to me. I will ask my subordinates to take them to repair them separately to reduce the possibility of being noticed as much as possible, and then let them replace them directly."
Mo Bei stepped forward and patted his shoulder. After getting along with him for a short time, he became very fond of this capable and attitude-oriented Blake. He said without concealing his appreciation:
"I will propose to His Majesty the King later that I give you a salary increase!"
