Chapter 703 The Villain Dies because of Talking Too Much!
After being abandoned by the devil, Rune became a tiger with its teeth pulled out.
He neither has the strong physique of a warrior nor the mysterious magic of a mage.
The string of gemstones and beads in his hand was quickly crushed to pieces by him, and the stored one-time magic spells were completely used;
Then there is the pocket watch hidden in the chest.
There is a [random teleportation] magic stored in advance.
But everyone is no longer the young junior professionals in Green Harbor back then!
As soon as they noticed the abnormal gathering of arcane energy, both Peter and Gale acted like a conditioned reflex. They both quickly chanted the spell to complete the [Counter Spell], and then forcibly destroyed the unformed [Random Teleportation]!
For this encirclement and suppression, similar escape methods have been prepared by everyone, and Monger will not be left with the slightest chance!
Forced to have no choice but to hide behind a temporary shelter barrier, Meng could only bite the bullet and shout to the people besieging him:
"Wait, wait! Let's discuss it, can we have a good discussion!"
"You guys... help me stop the prince and let me go. You can say whatever you want!"
"I have plenty of money!"
"I have prepared 32 secret treasure spots in the Kingdom of Reyak, Greenport, and other places, with a large number of gold coins and jewelry in them!"
“You can’t spend all the wealth there in a lifetime!”
"So what if you helped the royal family and killed me, you won't get a cent of my money!"
"Let me go, and I can take you all out of the royal capital. I have a secret channel to escape safely, and I guarantee that no one will discover me!"
"As long as you can leave here, change your appearance, and have gold coins in your hands, you can do whatever you want to do next, right?"
When force fails, Meng can only use inducements.
However, the results are obvious:
If the people who come to round him up are a group of money-minded mercenaries, or greedy adventurers, then his trick of luring them with benefits may work.
It is a pity that among the combatants present, they are either believers with firm beliefs who seek knowledge, or palace guards who are devoted to the royal family.
Especially the latter.
Most of the palace guards are inherited from families.
Grandpa became a guard, so did his father, and so does his son.
As long as one person can win this honor, the family's living security will almost always receive support from the royal family. This is a benefit for them, and it is also a constraint.
They really want to let Monger run away, not to mention whether they can finally get the wealth that currently only exists in Rune Monger's mouth.
Even if they are really rich, they have to completely give up their past life and identity.
Their family members will be held accountable by the royal family, imprisoned for life, or even... beheaded.
Not worth it.
The weight of Rune Monger's "promise" is definitely not a price high enough for them to sell their souls!
Seeing that Monger was forced to the end of his rope, Gale even joked with interest:
"First of all, Your Excellency! Can you show some sincerity and at least tell us a few treasure locations so that we can verify them!"
"If it is confirmed that it is true, I might consider helping you escape from prison before you are sent to be burned at the stake."
Rune Monger's face was black as coal.
His body was trembling slightly.
The current situation is almost a dead end for him.
Teleporting away will be blocked by two mages, Peter and Gale, who can interrupt him as much as they use;
Unable to break out of the siege;
As for the guards raised in the manor?
As soon as the battle broke out, Meng used the "Alert Snake" pendant to activate the defensive array in the manor and send them a signal of danger and help.
But until now they haven't appeared.
There is only one possibility:
They were delayed by other things.
Mengge could already roughly guess what happened to the guards.
Since Prince Vladin led people to set up this trap for him;
With King Kenridin's skills, there is absolutely no way that there will only be these few people nearby when taking action!
The guards outside might have been dealt with by the king's army and the palace guards long ago!
"……I do not understand."
Rune Monger was hoarse, hiding under his last few barriers, and asked desperately:
"You...how did you find out?"
He was referring to something about the devil.
The turning point of the entire battle was that Miranda, with just a few words, effortlessly successfully threatened a devil, allowing the other party to decisively take back the power lent to Monger.
Losing the most important source of power was the key to Monger's defeat.
Otherwise, he would have extracted and refined the souls of everyone present, and slaughtered them all without even sparing their souls!
Monger believed that he had not exposed any flaws.
The devil once told him that even if he used spells that would arouse the sins of mortals in front of the Radiant Pope, there would be no chance that the other party would notice the problem.
This is a power that truly belongs to the devil, and it is a power that does not belong to the mortal dimension.
It is impossible for mortals to realize the problem.
At the beginning, Meng was still cautious, but after so many years, Meng became more courageous.
The devil was telling the truth.
Even though he once secretly applied this power to Archbishop Eugene, triggering his greed and sin, Harris Eugene was unaware of it and didn't realize that something was wrong.
But he failed this time.
Miranda's words were very certain. They knew the existence of the devil, and even knew very clearly that the devil was here, in this manor.
Monger couldn't figure out which detail he was exposed in!
"Bang!"
Brandon took the greatsword he had snatched from the other side before the Hell Guards retreated, infused with anger, and slashed the shield barrier held up by Rune Monger with a [Heroic Strike], shattering another layer of the barrier that was already covered with dense cracks!
"You don't need to know this!"
"Just surrender!"
Villains die because they talk too much.
Especially those villains who like to tell the protagonists their evil plans with a smug look and a strong desire to share when they see that they are sure to win.
The more you talk, the easier it is for the protagonists to reverse the situation during this period, shouting about friendship, bond, etc. and then going up to completely suppress the talkative villains!
Brandon knows this too well!
He doesn't care what his companions think. In order to prevent Rune Monger from making any more trouble or using any trump cards to delay time, Brandon is not ambiguous at all. He holds up the big sword that is almost as tall as him and pours out his attacks with a clang!
"Bang! Bang! Bang Bang Bang!!!"
The last layer of the barrier protecting Monger finally shattered under the attacks of everyone!
...
And
