Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 79: 2 minutes

At that moment, Thales' eyes swept over the two tense confrontation: Rumba's plans and goals were all shattered, and the two countries avoided war.

But if he just stops here...

Not enough.

The life of Selma, his own life, and the lives of so many people who are fighting in the Palace of Valor...their lives.

Who should save it?

Selma stared at him worriedly under the table, and whispered him down.

But-Thales squeezed his fist lightly-his battle was not over yet.

The last step is still missing.

At the National Meeting of the Stars, when Thales fiercely retorted the cliff guardian duke "Cycloste", Gilbert sighed and told him in addition to his approval. The counterattack that was so refreshing and so that the opponent had nowhere to retreat was actually "not a clever way of governing."

Later, Thales understood from many experiences: In the Game of Thrones, only inexperienced novices and hot-headed fools will be like the heroes in popular knight novels who are bitter and vindictive. Similarly, he was greedy for a moment and was quick and profitable, and attacked his political opponents with a fierce and vicious offensive that did not leave a way behind. Take Thales as an example. At that time, he seemed to be victorious, but he eventually forced Kosde into a rival. The unrelenting style of the prince also made many vassals on the sidelines. In the end, they unanimously chose to stand on the side of the cyclops, and unanimously refused to recognize Thales as an illegitimate child.

Politics is not a life-and-death battle between two people, but a chain linkage of a group of people in the same power field. From means to results, every move will involve multiple interests and attitudes-for example, just now. After Thales relentlessly refuted Rumba speechless, he inevitably intensified the contradiction between the princes and Rumba, which would bring disastrous consequences for himself: in order to protect himself, black Duke Sha will annihilate them all here.

A successful ending is far more difficult to achieve than a sound victory, but it is also more important-this is what Gilbert wanted to tell Thales in the Hall of Stars.

Because victory often means further confrontation, and ending requires maximum compromise.

Thyls took a deep breath.

But he must do it.

As for the "suggestion" given by Ashida, he left it behind without even thinking about it-choosing him, the consequences would not be any better than turning over with Rumba.

But when he was about to speak.

"Clang!" There was a sharp metal noise in the field!

I don’t know who started the hand first-Rumba’s hand and half sword have already joined Ronnie’s long sword!

There was a corresponding fierce fighting sound from outside the hall:

"Block them!"

"Tack the light armor first!"

In the same dangerous hall, in an instant, Rumba and Ronnie had already exchanged two sword attacks. Both of them looked fierce, stepping back and forth, and entered a state of battle.

Tyles, who was standing on the square table, widened his eyes and almost vomited a mouthful of blood.

Fuck!

These Yankees!

Don’t listen to others?

Tyles glanced at the door anxiously—even though he could see nothing, he knew that Rumba’s strength had an overwhelming advantage. Even if the black sand collar can make the price, they will undoubtedly die.

No way...

No way!

Ignoring the eyes of others, when Ronnie and Rumba faced the sword for the second time, Thales looked up again and shouted:

"Charman Rumba!"

"You gave up your ideals like this, gave up the chance to save Exeter, let it sink in chaos, and let the stars overtake you?"

It’s ironic—at this moment, Thales, with a beating heart, spit on himself: A few minutes ago, he was still in front of the disdainful princes who spoke about the dangers of Rumba’s thoughts, and a few minutes later, he was going to be polite. , Encourage the desperate Rumba to pick up his ideals again!

Rumba frowned slightly, and took two steps back, opening a heavy cut from the side by Olesiu.

"You told me, what you want is more than self-protection, more than revenge, and a little bit more than the destruction of King Nunn and Dragon City!" Thales took advantage of their temporary separation, and shouted. : "For that'a little bit', you paid so much to **** the last vitality in a desperate situation that has long since been over!"

Because of the unusual movement in the hall, the sound of fighting outside the hall is still continuous.

In the chaos, Thales went hoarse: "Then why don't you take a risk again and see if you can grab a new lease of life?"

"Think about your brother and father!"

Rumba looked up suddenly, his face twisted.

"Boy! I'm fed up with your long talk!" Grand Duke Heisha gritted his teeth and gave Olesiu a sword: "You just want to save your own life, don't you?"

"Get out!"

Fak!

A anger surged into Thales' heart.

Next second.

"Thyls!"

Under Selma's exclamation, Thales gave a sharp breath and resolutely jumped down the table!

In the sound of fighting one after another outside the hall, the prince recklessly stepped on painful footsteps. In the eyes of everyone's consternation, he folded his arms and protected his head and rushed forward!

He rushed straight into the circle of Lombard, Ronnie and Olesiu!

Selma's outstretched hand can only pass over his sleeve.

Lecco and Grand Duke Trudida opened their eyes wide, watching the prince's suicide in disbelief.

Ronnie's pupils shrank! He was about to make a stabbing, and stopped abruptly in the air, even the Olesiu beside him stopped.

Rumba opened his mouth in surprise and didn't move forward.

"Pump!" Thales, who was emotional, stopped severely.

He stopped in the center of the three of them, pressed against the heart that quickly burst through his chest, and raised his arms to the three holding swords on both sides at the same time!

Like a warrior who is the most fierce and undaunted, he is blocked in the middle.

"You are crazy," Ronnie scolded with an ugly face: "Are you looking for death!"

The angry prince roared back unceremoniously: "So what? Anyway, he will be besieged!"

Thyls felt the coldness of the swords on both sides, turned his head, and shook his hoarse throat, only felt that tears and nose were about to come out: "Rumba, if you have a chance to go back to the original point, go back to where you started, Play with us again, try to reshape your Exter, instead of accepting the current failure-why not give it a try?"

"You have to save this country!"

Rumba looked at him in disbelief, gritted his teeth fiercely, and the blade trembled slightly.

"Princes!"

The prince who didn’t care about his breath turned his head, first scanned the dissatisfied Olesiu and Ronnie, and then stared at the surprised Grand Duke Lecco behind the table, and the special who didn’t know when he slipped there. Ludida slammed his fist: "I swear by my life, we have a way to save ourselves and don't have to die here in vain!"

Ronnie and Olesiu looked at each other, the muscles still tense.

The fighting outside the hall is still intense.

I don't know how many casualties are.

The short confrontation was immediately broken by Rumba. The Great Duke Heisha suppressed his emotions and asked with an ups and downs in his chest: "What the **** are you planning to do?"

Thyls took a deep breath.

"As you said, I want to save the life of'you'," the prince tried his best, racking his brains: "By the way, save the lives of the rest of us!"

"Prince Thales, we are all impressed by you," Grand Duke Lecco's voice was full of displeased, and came coldly:

"But from now on, this is Exeter's internal affairs!"

He was obviously dissatisfied with the prince's "saving the little life".

"Of course!" Thales cried out in a hurry.

"So I am only responsible for making suggestions and trying to convince you!" Thales said loudly: "It's up to you to choose or not!"

"Kill each other two minutes later, can't you?"

"The Yankees!"

I don't know if his crazy behavior won respect and attention, or the insulting ‘yankee’ had an effect. After Thales’s voice fell, the hall suddenly became quiet.

For a while, there was only the heavy breathing of everyone.

At this time, the sound of fighting outside the hall became more and more harsh as the background.

"Two minutes!" Thales repeated anxiously.

Grand Duke Lecco stared at him eagerly, his nose flaring.

Rumba's eyes were sharp and hesitant.

Selma looked at him worriedly.

Just when Thales, who raised his arms, felt that he could not support it...

Rumba took a deep breath and exhaled it again, seemingly determined.

I saw him put down the edge of the sword, hit the ground with a fierce sword.

"Black sand collar, hold on!" Rumba shouted angrily: "You are not allowed to do it without my order!"

The voice outside the hall suddenly became much lower.

Thyls immediately turned his eyes on Grand Duke Lecco.

The old man looked weird, first slowly closed his eyes, and then suddenly opened.

"Lord Justin!" The bald grand prince's voice was rare and loud: "Excuse me, please stay here for now!"

"Your Excellency," came the voice of Lord Justin: "Do you need help?"

Lecko and Rumba’s eyes met in the air: "No."

After a few seconds, the voice outside the hall stopped completely.

Ronnie and Olesiu looked at each other, one was not angry, the other put down their weapons in resentment.

Seeing this situation and this scene, Trudida whistled softly, seemingly complacent-until Grand Duke Lecco's eye knives struck.

"Two minutes." Lecco said coldly.

Tyles breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his sore arm.

But he can't rest.

Because all the gazes of the entire hall were pressed on him again, heavier, colder and harder to bear than every time before.

The prince pinched his thigh, cheered up, and looked up at the emotionally unstable and ugly sides.

Damn it.

One party must break the system of co-governance oath, end the state of separation of the Grand Duke, and reshape the centralized Exeter.

One party must maintain the framework of the co-governance oath, eliminate the aliens and traitors among them, and protect its own interests.

Two minutes.

And he only has two minutes.

To persuade the two parties who are in great conflict on the fundamental purpose and basic interests...

Shake hands and make peace!

And...

This kind of huge divergence and contradiction, he pointed out!

Facing the killing eyes of both sides, Thales at that moment sincerely felt:

Compared with this, the seemingly unreasonable Giza and Ashida are like docile kittens and dogs, obedient and coaxing.

But he had no choice.

I and Selma are still here, and the other comrades are still fighting hard—I don't know how many people have fallen.

He must succeed!

The next second, without waiting for anyone else to speak, Thales straightened his chest and spoke anxiously.

"Rumba!"

He quickly said: "What you worry about is that after you walk out from here, the great guilds will work together to deal with you, which is not good for you, and even destroys you?"

"Is that right!"

The Sword-struck Grand Duke Rumba pressed his lips tightly, his eyes were cold, and he didn't speak.

But Thales has no time to consider his response.

The prince suddenly turned his head to look at the other four:

"My princes, now your most urgent desire is to walk out alive within the overwhelming encirclement of the Valiant Palace, which is firmly controlled by Lombard, to return to your own territory and protect your family!"

"Is that right!"

The four of them looked at each other and said nothing in dissatisfaction and anger.

Selma looked at Thales blankly, worried about his situation between the two sides.

Tyles shook his head and let out a breath to make himself more awake.

He gritted his teeth and raised his head, staring at the dragon spear in the cloud at the top.

"So one party wants to live in the present, and one party wants to live in the future."

"For this, you have to reach a consensus here: cover up the real cause of King Nunn’s death." Thales felt a chest tightness, but he still squirted out the words from his throat forcefully: "The princes will ensure that Rumba does not He will walk out of the Hall of Valor with the charge of a kingkiller and give up any attempt to disadvantage him in the future."

Grand Duke Lecco snorted coldly.

"Rumba spared our lives at this moment, and let us leave alive," the prince said coldly: "Use the present for the future."

Rumba grinned, showing his teeth.

"It's useless," Duke Heisha shook his head dismissively: "Thanks to you, they now fear me, fear me, and will never let me go."

Rumba looked at the princes coldly: "Even if it is not the crime of slaying the king, sooner or later, for this reason or that reason, they will lead their troops to conquer me and destroy me."

Ronnie clicked his sword at the right time: "So smart."

At that moment, Thales had never hated Ronnie who was ignorant so much.

Damn it.

Go straight to the topic the fastest!

Thyls suddenly raised his head and spoke to Rumba, speaking faster: "Yes, they won't let you go, because you are the one who tramples on the co-governance vow by killing the king, and also tries to completely destroy the co-government through change. A different kind of vow."

"In order to maintain the co-governance vow and for their own benefit, the four princes will definitely join hands to destroy you!"

Looking at Rumba’s increasingly unkind look in his eyes, Thales’ expression was serious, and his conversation turned sharply: "Unless..."

Under everyone's gaze, Thales said sternly:

"Unless the life of Chaman Rumba is tied to the co-governance vow-destroying you is tantamount to destroying the co-governance vow!"

This statement came out.

"What?"

Including Rumba, the four princes opened their eyes and looked at Thales incredulously.

Only Selma shook her head thoughtfully, as if she understood something.

But the prince surprised the men again.

I saw Thales Canxing take a sharp breath, his eyes resolute, his tone resolute, anxious and decisive, and he waved his arms!

"I propose, everyone!"

Grand Duke Lecco raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at him suspiciously.

But the prince hasn't finished.

"Follow the great tradition of Exeter since ancient times, and follow the usual practice of Nekaru's co-governance oath..."

Tyles gritted his teeth~IndoMTL.com~closed his eyes.

Successful ending.

Political compromise.

Bundling of benefits.

"After the unfortunate death of King Nunn, all the princes present, here and now..."

The prince suddenly opened his eyes and made a firm decision:

"Hold a king election meeting!"

At that moment, the five princes all changed!

"You will jointly elect the Grand Duke of the Black Sands, Charman Rumba..."

"For the great Kingdom of Exeter..."

Thyls' arm pointed directly at the shocked Duke Black Sand, and said in a loud voice:

"The next king will be elected together!"

At that moment, the flames of all the braziers in the hall seemed to tremble at once.

The room was suddenly silent.

Tyles finished speaking, panting hard while pressing on his violently beating heart.

One second.

Two seconds.

In the quiet hall, Trudida blinked in surprise and took three deep breaths.

Ronnie and Olesiu, like stone sculptures, froze in place motionless, only their eyes fixed on the prince.

Grand Duke Lecco has no expression on his face, but his eyebrows and upper lip are constantly twitching, wrinkles rising and falling.

The hostility they had just met in life and death seemed to be dispelled in an instant.

Even the pensive Selma forgot to think for a while, staring at Thales with wide eyes.

And Charman Rumba, the focal figure Thales pointed directly at, stared at the Prince of Stars in disbelief with an unprecedented strange look.

This...

Heisha, who was originally murderous, swallowed hard at this moment.

This boy...

He just said...

What did you say?

Together...the king?

I always feel that little Thales can't finish so much in those two minutes...

What do you think?
