Chapter 16 le sing?(5)

Night came, and a soft squeak of mice sounded in the village.

Ella and the Aztlan Warriors chose to leave the village affected by the Black Death and set up camp outside the village. Princess Navarra and others were tied tightly with ropes and threw them inside the village.

"I know you can break the ropes and you know that the best way to trap someone like you is to destroy your hands and feet-and what I know, your Majesty also knows."

Before leaving, Amy grabbed the red knife's clothes and stared at him:

"Cherish your current treatment and don't force His Majesty to make a last resort. If you have to choose to escape... you just need to remember that you will never be able to escape."

Hongdao stared at Amy unwillingly. But Amy ignored him, and after saying that, he turned around and followed Ella away.

"It's inexplicable." Hongdao cursed, "The Swedish king was shocked, and he was afraid there was something wrong with his mind."

"What should I do?" Princess Navarra asked with some fear. The Earl of France ran away, and she could only rely on these Earl of France's subordinates.

"The other party seems to be trying to take us to the Palace of Versailles, so it's better to be obedient." Hei Tianping said, "The only thing we need to be careful is not to get infected with the Black Death."

Everyone looked at the Black Balance together: "Then, how can we avoid getting infected with the Black Death?"

Black Flat Ping was silent for a while, and finally replied: "I don't know."

It is not a big deal. There are many different opinions in the Almani Federation about the cause of the Black Death: Some say it is God's punishment for sinners, some say it is the vicious curse of the witch; some say it is because of external toxins, some say it is because of internal fluid disorders; some say it is because of mice and fleas, some say it is because of evil black cats... Because there are so many statements that it makes people unable to tell which one is true.

The body suffering from the Black Death fell in front of them, making Princess Navarra unable to ignore it. Even though the moonlight was blocked by the clouds and even if the body was submerged in the darkness, the terrifying dark spots still lingered in Princess Navarra's mind.

The country of Navarra is located in the mountains. The Black Death has not spread to its territory, but Princess Navarra has long heard of its terrifying reputation. She stared in the direction of the corpse and did not dare to move her eyes at all. In the dark, she seemed to see a dark force overflowing from the corpse and wrapping around her body along the night.

The moonlight broke free from the constraints of the clouds and threw the light down again. At that moment, Princess Navara saw a dark and terrifying ghost floating on the corpse. Its skeleton head was and its body was as empty as black smoke. He held a long sickle in his hand and rushed towards Princess Navara with a grim smile!

--"don't want!"

Princess Navarra screamed and opened her eyes. She was covered in sweat, and the body was lying in front of her, without any dark power, nor any dark ghosts. Everything she saw just now was just an illusory dream.

She heard Hongdao laughing dryly: "Can't you sleep, either? Princess?"

Princess Navarra then saw that the red sword, black balance and white bow were all open their eyes, and for some reason, their bodies were scattered with vague magic.

"We don't know how to resist the Black Death, so we want to try it with our magic." Hei Tianping explained with a wry smile, "I hope this can be useful."

Princess Navarra opened her eyes wide and gradually calmed her heart rate through repeated breathing.

"It's so close to the Black Death patient...it's more scary than I thought." she said.

"Don't worry, the Swedish king doesn't seem to kill us." Hei Tianping said, "Even if we have the Black Death, she has a way to cure it. This is the Swedish king."

"If this is the case, then your Almani Federation is actually not unable to form an alliance with the Pirate Kingdom, right?" Princess Navarra asked, "Carolin said that the Almani Federation and the Qiqiu Empire are feudals, but now the Swedish king's purpose is to deal with the Tianfang Empire. Feudals are the next thing to do. To form an alliance with it, at least we can get help on the issue of the Black Death, right?"

——"But the question is, why should I control the Black Death?"

The sudden voice of the Count of the Ile de France shocked everyone. But he saw him turn out faintly from behind a mud wall and walk towards them.

Hei Tianping laughed: "I knew you didn't run away by the consul. Although you were nicknamed 'Earl of Rabbit', you always took us to run away. It has never happened to sneak away by one person yet."

"Put the magic away so that people can't be noticed," said the Count of Ile-de-France. "I just observed that the King of Sweden was stationed in the north of the village, and the group of horses were left to the west of the village. We first slipped out from the south of the village, and then went to the west of the village to steal two horses. This is the great plain, and as long as the horses run, they will not catch up with us."

As he said, he used a sharp blade to cut the body tied to the Red Knife. After handing the Black Flat and White Bow to the Red Knife, he came behind Princess Navarra and began to untickle the ropes on her body.

"Calorin, you just said you don't need to control the Black Death, what does that mean?" asked Princess Navarra. "Although most of the people who die are civilians who cannot buy medicine, a little more people can get more taxes, right?"

"Contain the plague, save the people, and then? Let them be summoned by the Tianfang Empire to participate in the upcoming war, and finally die on the battlefield?" The Earl of France replied faintly, "The Black Death is not just a plague, but also a talisman. As long as it rages the Federation of Almany, we have reason not to participate in the war; as long as the Black Death rages the territory of the Federation of Almany, the Federation of Almany will not become a battlefield for both sides."

"...But in this way, even if you don't participate in the war, your losses will be huge, right?"

"If I use a lot of manpower and material resources to control the plague, then the only loss will be my treasury. And if I don't control it, the only loss will be all the lords of the Federation of Almany." The Count of Ile de France replied calmly, "You must know that my enemy is not the Tianfang Empire, the Qiqiu Empire, or the Pirate Kingdom. My biggest enemy in my life is the big and small lords of the Federation of Almany from beginning to end."

As he spoke, the rope on Princess Navara's body had fallen down. Black Tianping and White Bow's body were also torn off by the red knife.

The Count of Ile de France waved his hand gently and signaled them to follow him. Princess Navarra lowered her body and covered her mouth for fear of making a sound. But this was unnecessary - because there was no one in the village holding a watch, it was completely empty.

"They think that if we want to break the rope, we must use magic. If we use magic, we will be perceived by them, so we will be so confident." The Count of Ile-de-France said, "But the problem is that there is no need to use magic to untie the rope. They thought I had escaped, but in fact I have been hiding in the village, waiting for the opportunity to save you."

Princess Navarra nodded suddenly, sincerely admiring the wisdom and courage of the Count of Ile de France.

then--

"thump."
