Simon’s speed was not slow, and after a while he came to the northern line of defense, glanced at the soldier holding a weapon, Simon stopped his pace, and his arm left Weiwei’s waist.

Angrily glanced at Simon with a dull face, and Weiwei walked towards the line of defense without stopping.

When the soldiers guarding the line of defense saw the two of Simon, they could not help tightening their weapons and watching them vigilantly.

“Stop, is it the rebel army?” The soldiers in the defense line saw a girl approaching the defense line, and could not help but pick up the shovel-like weapon in their hands, and said solemnly.

“Wait a minute.” When a soldier next to him saw the girl’s face clearly, he couldn’t help but stretched out his hand and pressed the raised weapon with disbelief on his face.

“Are you… Princess Weiwei?”

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers around couldn’t help but look at the young girl who was approaching the defense line in surprise. At this time, they found out that this young girl was the long-lost Princess Weiwei, and they all cried out in surprise.

“Where is Lord Father now?” Nodding slightly, Wei Wei asked seriously.

When the soldiers in the line of defense heard this, they immediately looked at each other, unable to answer for a while.

Seeing this, Weiwei bit her lip and continued: “Then take me to see Gaka, I have something to ask him!”

“Yes.” A soldier who seemed to be the leader responded, and then took the lead and walked towards the palace.

Weiwei glanced at Simon, who understood and followed.

As soon as you enter the defense line, the palace is not far away, and there are several pairs of soldiers standing guard everywhere.

Along the way, Weiwei’s figure attracted the attention of the soldiers around, and every soldier couldn’t help but follow when they found out that the princess was back.

As soon as he came to the gate of the palace, there stood a man with a sword pinned to his waist and a slightly pointed nose.

“Weiwei!” The man with the pointed nose shouted in surprise when he saw Weiwei.

“Jaka.” Two years later, when Weiwei saw someone she knew again, she couldn’t help but feel a little sad, but it was not appropriate to think about it at this time. After adjusting her emotions, Weiwei said solemnly: “Jaka , I have something to ask you!”

Gaka was stunned for a moment, he heard the seriousness in Weiwei’s words, and his expression became serious, and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Biting her lips tightly, Weiwei said solemnly, “I’m going to blow up this palace!”

“What!” Rao Shigaka was so calm, and when he heard such words, his color changed, and he couldn’t believe it.

What a ridiculous thing to blow up this palace with a history of 4,000 years!

The surrounding soldiers also exclaimed in disbelief, shocked by the princess’ request.

Standing behind Wei Wei, Simon’s dark eyes flashed with surprise. He didn’t expect this princess to come up with such a crazy solution.

“This is the only way to get a few seconds of precious time.” As if the request just said was a trivial matter, Weiwei’s expression did not change at all, “Only in this way can this meaningless war be stopped, Only in this way can the unnecessary sacrifice of the people be avoided.”

In a word, the serious meaning cannot be ignored.

After being unable to speak for a long time, the words that the king had said in the past suddenly flashed in Gaka’s head.

“For a country, the people are the most important.”

Firmly clenched his fists, and after a while, Gaka slowly released his fists, bowed his head slightly, and said solemnly: “Follow your orders, Princess Weiwei.”

“Okay, it’s a race against time to prepare explosives.” Wei Wei gave an order immediately, then looked at the Nanjie war zone where the sound of fighting seemed to be heard, pursed her lips, and whispered sadly, “Don’t have too much more. Innocent citizens died.”

After Weiwei gave the order, Gaka winked at the soldier not far away, and the soldier nodded knowingly, leading a group of soldiers to prepare gunpowder, while the rest of the soldiers stood silently on the spot.

After giving the order, only then did Jaka see a black-haired and black-eyed young man standing behind Princess Weiwei, who looked extremely handsome, and could not help guessing: “Weiwei, the young man behind you is escorting you back home safely. Pirates?”

Weiwei glanced at Simon, who was expressionless behind her, in embarrassment, and shook her head slightly. Seeing that the latter did not intend to explain, she said helplessly: “He is the navy.”

“Uh.” Gaka was stunned, glanced at the indifferent Simon, and he didn’t say anything, and suggested to Weiwei: “Let’s go into the palace.” After speaking, he took the lead and walked directly into the gate of the palace.

“Yeah.” Wei Wei nodded and followed, and at the end did not forget to take care of Simon and let him follow.

The three quickly came to the highest platform of the palace. Weiwei and Gaka walked to the battlements, looked at the throbbing crowd from a distance, and had a deep conversation.

Simon, on the other hand, looked around. A stone-paved road stretched from the stairs to the gate of the palace. On the left and right sides of the road, green grass and a few native trees were planted. There were also two Stone carvings of animals that caught Simon’s attention.

A hound and a falcon.

“Nice place, but unfortunately it’s going to blow up.” Simon said with emotion.

When Wei Wei, who was talking to Gaka, couldn’t help but darken her face, and Gaka’s face was also ugly, and she glared fiercely at Simon, who was indifferent.

As if he didn’t see Gaka’s vicious stare, Simon’s indifferent expression didn’t change at all, and he looked at Weiwei, who had a gloomy look on his face.

Aware of Simon’s gaze, the sadness on Weiwei’s pretty face slowly passed away, and she gradually became firmer. She glanced at the still beautiful palace with nostalgia. She has many beautiful memories here, but now she has to destroy it by herself. , but if you don’t do this, you won’t be able to save more people, so I have no regrets.

Looking at Simon firmly, Weiwei said solemnly: “It’s not a pity to blow up this place. Compared with the lives of the people, this palace that has absorbed nearly four thousand years of history is not as important as it is!”

Simon smiled slightly when he heard the words, and suggested: “If that’s the case, then it’s better to speed up.” As he spoke, the smile faded instantly, showing a chill, “I don’t think Crocodile will be destroyed so easily. end this war.”

When Weiwei heard this, her face couldn’t help changing, and she felt uneasy in her heart. She forced a smile and said, “No way~www.readwn.com~ I will definitely be able to stop it!”

Gaka’s dissatisfaction with Simon on the side seemed to have reached a critical point, and he frowned and said coldly: “You seem to be talking too much nonsense.”

Listening to the rude words, Simon smiled indifferently, and said lightly: “Is it nonsense, I will know in a while.”

After finishing speaking, Simon glanced around vigilantly. Until now, he has not detected the dangerous breath, which means that there are no enemies around.

“Huh.” Gaka snorted coldly.

“It’s all ready!” a soldier reported loudly with a torch in one hand, and there were also a few soldiers around who were also holding torches.

Weiwei pursed her lips and closed her eyes. After a while, she opened her eyes abruptly and said decisively, “Light it up!”

Gaka on the side sighed deeply, looked up at the top of the golden palace, and was silent.

Different from the reactions of Weiwei and the two next to him, Simon was coldly sensing the movements around him at this time. He didn’t believe that Crocodile would let the king’s army do anything out of the ordinary.

When the soldier with the torch heard Princess Weiwei’s words, he couldn’t help swallowing hard, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he shivered and stretched the torch to the wire of the explosive.

When the torch was about to approach the wire, a strong sandstorm suddenly blew over and blew out the flames on the torch. After that, the wind suddenly intensified, and several people holding the fire were blown up by the gust of wind, hitting the torches heavily. on the ground.

And Simon drew his epee as soon as the sandstorm appeared, staring coldly at the top of the palace.

Weiwei and Gaka watched all this in shock, especially Weiwei, whose heartbeat quickened when they saw the sandstorm.

Sandstorm, representing Crocodile.
