Chapter 10 2 Liars

Greg sat on the horse expressionlessly, unaware that he had become the center of attention.

Hussein said meaningfully: "Mr. Gregory is also going to attend the enthronement ceremony of His Highness the Crown Prince?" Due to Otis' coma, Gregory has been defaulted as the first heir of the Danya family, so he appeared in the Hayden's team is very easy to understand.In an imperial event such as the crown prince's ascension to the throne, Gregory must have wanted to attend as Danya's heir to clarify his status.

Hayden said noncommittally: "I would like to have one more companion on the road."

Dinan was ordered by Hayden to come on horseback.

Hussey told him the mission and thanked Hayden for his help.

Hayden mobilized another two hundred people at his disposal, ten of whom were magicians.Even in the huge imperial army, magicians are still a scarce resource. There are only five in Hussein's team, and two of them are mercenaries.For the search for the Necromancer, the magician is an indispensable help, so Hussey once again expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Hayden.

Rhodes listened to them being grateful and thankful, and kept looking at the surrounding movements, for fear that Hussein would accidentally cast his gaze here.As the former commander of the imperial guards, Hussein had met him more than once.He recognized Gregory, the more he recognized him.Thinking of this, Rhodes' stomach tightened for a while.

From meeting Hayden to the present, he has hesitated to ensure that the escape plan is foolproof, resulting in missing too many opportunities to escape.Up to now, it has reached the point where I have to leave.After a while Hayden will move on, trusting Hussey to stand by and see them off.Although there is a 20.00% chance that he will miss his figure in the dazzle, there is also an 80.00% chance that he will recognize himself.

Is it a risk to leave, or a risk to stay?

Rhodes' eyes were dribbling to observe the soldiers next to him, and he was engaged in a battle between heaven and man.Obviously, like Hansen, they were all paying attention to the two people who kept chatting, and didn't notice him.

Rhodes turned to look at the carriage again.

Mundra remained motionless in the car, wondering if he had fallen asleep again.

Hussein finally finished expressing his gratitude, and took Dinan to the side. The eyes of everyone except him followed Hussein's movement.

It is now!

Rhodes didn't hesitate any longer this time.He slid down, slipped off the horse, and quickly chanted earth magic to dig holes on the ground.But Hansen's reaction was obviously faster than he imagined.The moment his body fell to the ground, Hansen turned around and subconsciously wanted to grab his shoulder.

Things have developed to this point, Rhodes has no time to look forward and backward.He rolled back and tore off the necklace around his neck with one hand.

The spirit of the undead, which was suppressed by the divine power of light, erupted from his body in an instant.

Hayden turned around abruptly.

The magicians in Hussein and Hayden's team also flew up one after another.

After Rhodes set up a barrier of dead energy to resist the attack, he summoned skeletons to resist Hansen and the soldiers rushing towards him, while digging holes with earth magic.

A sword energy suddenly broke through the barrier, and the cold sword energy swept across his cheek, cutting off half of his ear.

Rhodes screamed, covered his ears, and looked up at Hayden who came before him at some point.Fortunately, the hole under his feet had already been dug out, so before Hayden launched the second wave of attack, his body sank into the soil.

These things happen in an instant.

Hansen immediately led people to cast nets in all directions to search for them.

The magicians constantly use their spiritual power to sense the breath of the undead.

Hussey rushed over and said, "Is that just now..." His sight was blocked by Hayden, and he only had time to see a sunken pit, but the air seemed to be the breath of undead.

Hayden confirmed his guess, "Are there any other well-known necromancers in the country?"

Hussey's eyes lit up, almost gearing up, "Mundra!"

The appearance of "Mundra" made the whole team busy.

Hussein cheered up and used Hayden's army to block a few kilometers around.Although "Mundra" was surprised by using earth magic, this earth escape technique has a fatal flaw - digging too deep, the magician can't breathe, easy to suffocate, digging too shallow, It will bulge out on the ground, easy to be found.So Hussey believes that it is a matter of time before "Mundra" is caught.As soon as he thought that he would soon be able to complete the task and return to the imperial capital, and even catch up with Xi Luo's enthronement ceremony, his enthusiasm went straight to his head.

Just when everyone else was busy for "Mundra", Hayden returned to the carriage.

Miss "Monica" in the carriage was swimming in her sleep again, as if separated from the turmoil outside in two different worlds.Hayden had always positioned her as a lady in distress who was oppressed by an evil servant before, but when this evil servant became Mundra, the identity of the oppressed lady became intriguing.

As a down-and-out young lady who elopes with others and encounters robbers, her mood is too calm.In contrast, "Mundra" is more humane.

Hayden's fingers subconsciously caressed the white neck exposed in the air.There was a cold touch of the skin from the fingertips, if not for the slow beating of the pulse, this body was almost no different from a corpse.His fingers slowly slid down and searched around his neck, but there was no necklace.But Hayden didn't give up immediately, he moved his eyes down, and landed on the wrist and fingers along the arm.No rings, no bracelets.

A long-lost smile appeared on his face.

Then he became worried about the safety of Miss "Monica".Her sleep is too abnormal, plus the rest time at night, she almost sleeps more than sixteen hours a day.Thinking of the unpredictable methods of the necromancer, he frowned, stroked her neck lightly with his fingers, and called softly: "Monica, Monica..."

"Marshal." Gregory's voice sounded at the door.

Hayden withdrew his fingers that were lingering around his neck and was unwilling to leave, and opened the door of the carriage.

Mundella was so sound asleep that his head suddenly tilted and fell on Hayden's shoulder.

Undoubtedly, this is an ambiguous gesture in anyone's eyes.

Gregory's gaze was like an awl, and even in the dim condition of the carriage, he still accurately found the connection between Hayden's shoulder and Mundella's head.But he quickly retracted his gaze and said calmly, "I'll come and see Monica."

Hayden said with a smile: "I think she should be the one who has the best life among all of us." He raised his hand and gently supported her head to the other side, then got up and got out of the carriage, as if carelessly He asked eagerly, "If that person is Mundra, then what he said should be discounted."

Gregory asked, "What are you doubting?"

Hayden didn't answer him directly, "Do you really have no memory of the past?"

Gregory said, "No."

"Where's Monica?" Hayden looked over with a half-smile, the twinkle in his eyes seemed to remind him not to play tricks.

Gregory was silent for a while, and then whispered: "This name makes me feel familiar."

Hayden said: "So, we can assume that Miss Monica is real."

Gregory said, "Are you suspicious of Monica?"

Hayden smiled and said, "No. I just want to find a decent-sized umbrella for her before all kinds of gossip hurt her."

His concerns are not without reason.

After an hour of fruitless searches, Hussey grew irritable.He turned back, hoping to get more useful information from Hayden.

Hayden did not hide the existence of Miss "Monica".

Therefore, Mundra was soon awakened by a call.

He slowly raised his eyelids, and his eyes looked vaguely at a strange face that appeared from nowhere.

"Ms. Monica, hello. I am Hussein, Commander of the Imperial Guard. Nice to meet you." After finishing his polite speech as usual, he went straight to the topic, "Excuse me, when did you meet your servant? ?”

Mundella sat up slowly, tilted his head to look at him and said, "What's wrong with him?"

Hussein gradually became stern, "Do you know that your servant is a necromancer?"

Just when everyone thought he would panic, scream and deny, Mundra nodded calmly and said, "I know."

Although this answer was beyond Hussein's expectation, it made his next question smoother, "You know he is a necromancer and you still hire him?"

"He's funny," Mundella said.

It's hard to imagine that a noble lady would say such an interesting comment to a necromancer.

Before Mundra, Hussey met many extraordinary women, such as Mrs. Rachel, such as Queen Samantha, such as Olivia, but their extraordinary ability and extraordinary charm are reflected in them , but the one in front of me is eye-catching because of his strange taste.

Hou Saidao: "When did you meet him?"

Mundra said: "Ten days ago."

Hou Saidao: "Can you be more precise. Ten days ago, somewhere, how many people were there at that time, how did he ask you to travel with him, and how did you find out that he was a necromancer."

Mundra said: "Ten days ago, outside Putra, he was alone, riding a bone horse. He wanted to find someone to accompany him on the road, and I agreed." His expression was so calm that This weird thing became very normal in his mouth.

Hussein: "..."

Hayden interrupted suddenly, "Where was Gregory at that time?"

If they elope, Gregory should be by Monica's side.Although they didn't know Monica's personality well, Gregory was definitely not a person who would casually add a necromancer to the team.Moreover, he should have gotten the news that the empire is looking for the necromancer, and it is absolutely impossible to let "Mundra" go.

But if the elopement was just a lie fabricated by "Mundra", and Gregory was not with Monica at the time, how would he know Gregory's whereabouts?

Combining the above two situations, the only reasonable possibility is that Gregory met "Mundra", was defeated by the opponent, was injured and lost his memory. "Mundra" kidnaps "Monica" and leaves.However, it is difficult to explain Miss "Monica"'s calm attitude.If the only reasonable possibility is true, then Miss "Monica" will be charged with two crimes: one, abandoning the injured lover.Two, elope with the murderer who hurt her lover.

Comparing the appearance of Gregory and "Mundra", Hayden really can't imagine that "Monica" will make such a choice.If it was a forced move because her life was threatened at that time, then she had too many opportunities to correct her choices later, but she gave up one by one.

I have to say that Miss "Monica" is too intriguing.

Compared to his struggles, Mundella's answer was short and forceful, "He's at home, probably just woke up and had breakfast."
