Chapter 116 The bridge in front of the door
Neferi didn't let go of her worries until she entered the city for a long time and sent troops to capture Stonewell.
Because this scene is really weird.
It's like exhaling deeply and preparing to lift a huge heavy axe, but it turns out that the axe is made of paper and the axe flashed to the waist due to excessive exertion.
Neferi was not quick to take this sudden victory as her own.
She held up her two axes and walked into the "kitchen" where she was imprisoned as if facing a formidable enemy. As a result, it was empty and there was no enemy.
"Why did you just surrender?" Neferi asked a golden citizen who was riding beside her and laughing non-stop.
It seems to be called Gotok.
Getok smiled, nodded and bowed:
"This is because Neferi's aura of kingship has shocked us. Even though we are thousands of miles away, we can feel the wisdom and power of King Neferi, as well as your justice and kindness."
Neferi frowned:
"Don't lie to me, I'm not that stupid."
Gotok was so frightened that he dared not speak. He stood at attention and said seriously: "What the villain said is absolutely true. I would never dare to deceive King Neferi."
"Really?" King Neferi was confused.
"Really." Getok was determined.
"Hey, hehe." King Neferi covered her face and became silly and happy, "Am I so powerful? I didn't expect that I was so powerful..."
Hyde helplessly inserted himself between Neferi and Gotok, and said to Gotok:
"Tell me honestly, why? Anyway, there are so many people in the city, and there is no shortage of you who can tell the truth. You must know that lying, especially when many people lie, is easy to detect. You only need to interrogate them individually to find out the answers
The difference in details can keep getting closer to the truth.”
Gotok lost his temper, and Hyde was not an easy person to fool.
He said: "Before King Neferi came, a powerful man had already come over with a caravan. He said it was your team, your vanguard, and destroyed the defenses in the city."
"The caravan..." Hyde muttered, "It's Wuming."
"That's right, it's Wuming." Getok said, "I know him. He may not be your vanguard, but since he has chosen you, of course I believe in that person's vision."
Getok said: "After Wuming left, I was a subject who firmly supported King Neferi. If you don't believe me, ask the officials in the city. I was running around telling you every day to persuade the rebels in the city to accept you as the ruler of Stone City.
.For this reason, I was beaten every day and lost an arm.”
Gotok showed Neferi his missing left arm, and untied his clothes as if to take credit, revealing the wound of the broken arm.
Neferi looked strange:
"Don't think that I don't understand anything. You have the traces of the limb grafting ceremony. Your hand was chopped off by Greg. I personally stayed in the 'kitchen'."
When Getok saw that the lie was exposed, his face did not turn red and his heart stopped beating as he continued:
"Well, after all, I am loyal to you, king."
Neferi saw that Getok was a bit clingy and wanted to confirm her opinion with Hyde.
Hyde stroked the beard on his chin and thought:
"You said you run around every day? So, Wuming's arrival did not make all the rebels in the city surrender?"
Getok glanced at Hyde:
"King Neferi, you have a good military advisor."
Neferi asked: "So Hyde's guess is correct. So you convinced the rebels?"
Getok shook his head:
"It's not me. Although I really want to take the credit for myself, this kind of lie can be exposed quickly - the first time Wuming came, he left quickly. The rebels in the city have a lucky mentality.
, I think he will never come back, Stone City is still ours."
"What's the result?" Hyde asked.
"Not long after, the unknown person came over again, also under the banner of King Neferi. Once again, he was broken by the newly built city defense system, entered Stone City, and then walked away."
Gotok laughed:
"Now those people are completely exhausted. They no longer take any chances and welcome your arrival obediently. If there are really those who are unwilling to obey, they will not choose to resist. Instead, they will leave Shidong City and become bandits."
"Nobody is so good..." Neferi muttered.
"The nameless subordinates can actually break through Stone City's defense line?" Hyde said, "Not only is he powerful, but he also has so many strong men under his command?"
Getok nodded: "It was a red-haired girl who broke into the kitchen with the same flame as the nameless one and took away the limb-sparing nobles there."
Neferi suddenly realized:
"No wonder I didn't see it when I entered the kitchen."
Hyde sighed: "As a caravan, his power is too strong. I really don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing."
"Don't worry about Hyde, he is a good guy." Neferi said, "When I first met him, I thought he was a bad guy, but after getting along with him, I knew that he was a very good guy."
Neferi showed a bright smile to Hyde:
"He will not harm us. We should take over Stone City now."
Hyde woke up with a start and bowed in response:
"Yes, King Neferi, your kingly demeanor has become more and more obvious."
========
"Which one should I choose..." Wuming was confused, "Neferi or Servis?"
Outside the Walled City of Kallia, the caravan is marching towards the Walled City of Kallia.
Because the magic trap was only temporarily closed, the team was dense and moving quickly. Roger stopped running and rode a tall horse to keep pace with the nameless golden carriage.
Since there was no Latan to pull the cart, D could only take on this task and push the cart desperately behind the coffin.
Wuming tangledly raised the scales with both hands, holding a storm eagle feather in one hand and a medicine bottle in the other, facing the pain of choice:
"Choose Servais or Neferi."
"You are still thinking about it?" Roger was surprised, "Do you have any humanity?"
"Why do I lose my humanity?" Wuming said, "I have so much more humanity."
"How many?"
"So much that it can overflow." Wu Ming said in a serious tone.
Roger said seriously:
"Mr. Anonymous, as your companion, I hope you can listen to my opinion. Neferi is a good girl, and she should not be turned into a puppet."
Roger had some friendship with Neferi at the Round Table and the Red Lion City, and he couldn't bear to see her being turned into a puppet by being fed drugs and being played by a certain magician.
"But the mines in Galid really need puppets." Wuming said with a smile on his face, "The corruption there is too serious, and no one is willing to mine there. It's a big mine, but it's a huge waste."
Wuming counted the pros and cons with his fingers:
"Neferi, the interests of the entire Nimgef; puppetry, countless hardworking workers..."
Roger looked helplessly at Wuming.
He said: "Neferi is also the adopted daughter of Lord Momochi. My friend, you don't want to be targeted by the Round Table Hall, right? Corruption is terrifying, but there are killers in the Round Table who use corruption as a weapon."
Wuming looked at the medicine bottle, feeling a little wilted:
"I understand the truth, but puppetry really has great potential..."
Roger said: "Can't you lie to Selvais and say that the medicine has been given to Neferi?"
Wuming heard Roger's suggestion and looked to the other side of the carriage.
Tuifu was riding a spirited horse, covering his face and pitifully following the convoy.
Tuifu listened to Wuming's words and went directly to lie to Servis.
As a result, the lie was exposed instantly, and Servais slapped his husband and told him to get out.
According to the words of Servis provided by Tuifu, he has a spiritual sense of the potion and can judge whether the potion has been drunk.
"This is really troublesome..." Wuming shook the potion.
He looked at Roger:
"How about a drink for D?"
"No." Roger said, "He just took off one of your wheels. This trip will be enough to pay off the debt."
"You really defended him." Wuming said, "You obviously didn't talk to him along the way."
