The villain's goal is to save the heroine

Free...

Free!!

Hahahahaha——

Seventeen's movements became faster and faster, as if he was a death row prisoner released from prison. He couldn't help but greedily breathe the air of freedom. His exhilarating mood was so joyful that it reached the extreme!

Yes, this is also the limitation of Linn's curse.

Human beings are always complex creatures. Emotions and desires can usually influence a person's psychology. It is not easy to pollute his entire mind from a certain physiological level in a short period of time.

But for Seventeen, who had only suffered pain, it was impossible for her to indulge in a seemingly comfortable kiss.

Lin En is the source of her fear, but the eldest princess can give her unlimited sense of security. If she is given a chance to choose, does she need to think about which one to choose?

Yes... as long as I can get back to the princess, I will be safe!

No matter how powerful Lin En is, can he be more powerful than the eldest princess?

There is actually nothing wrong with Seventeen's idea. The fact is that there are indeed a few hurdles around the eldest princess that Lin En cannot overcome.

The worst was naturally the Royal Knights. Although Novia and the two archers could no longer join the battle, the quality of these three men, combined with the remaining seven, made it difficult for such a well-trained formation to win with just Lin En's magic attributes.

Of course, if he used the witch's power, there would be no problem. But the problem was that it was easy for Lin En to defeat them, but it was difficult to kill them.

Don’t forget, there is a high-level healer and two super-level healers in the church. If a real fight breaks out, he will most likely be exhausted to death!

This is also the second hurdle that Lin En cannot overcome.

Seaberg may not have much offensive ability, but he is at a high level of 78 after all, and his defense and healing methods are still extremely strong. Even if Lin En uses the power of the witch, it is impossible to break through.

As for Claire at the end, there is no solution!

It can only be said that there is a gap between witches! The power in Lin En's body is most likely just a small part of Flora's separation. The fact that he can easily play with Novia and lord-level monsters is not because of the witch power in his body. The key is that his own level is high enough. Relying on the witch power to fight against lower-level monsters, he can easily capture them.

But Claire is different.

Is that just pure witch power?

According to the infinite growth curve, I'm afraid that in the end he will directly become the witch herself!

In this world, there is no power that can surpass the witch, so as long as Claire is willing, he will be invincible in this world!

嗏

Claire would never go to war with him easily.

Just like Lynn wouldn't want to turn into a monster, Claire would never want to turn into an invincible witch!

This is not to say that invincible power is not tempting, the question is, will he still be himself when the time comes?

That's no different from dying without me.

But there are always some things in this world that people are willing to protect at the cost of their lives, so Claire can't be pushed too far, otherwise the male protagonist will definitely fight him to the death with thunder-like means!

in other words…

Violence cannot solve the problem, and he probably can't kill Nicole.

This is a matter of course.

Lin En is not so crazy that he can't even see clearly what's going on. The only one who is stupid is Seventeen, who inherited Mona's silly nature.

What he actually has to do is...

"Ah!"

Lin En raised a wicked smile, supported himself on his thighs and stood up, then slowly walked towards the camp.

At the same time, Seventeen finally returned to her warm big family.

By this time, it was already around eight or nine o'clock. According to Renata's plan, this should have been the final leg of the Kafa route. However, the explosion and the disappearance of the four people forced a delay in the plan. At least they had to determine the situation before continuing their journey.

“…Your Highness, I regret to report to you that based on the clues found at the scene, it is very likely that Nineteenth has died. The partial remains we have found have been confirmed to be his, and his body has been mutilated.” Renata said solemnly.

They were holding their final meeting. In addition to Elena and Renata, there were Claire, Seaberg, and a gloomy-looking man who had taken over as captain of Novia.

"Nineteen..." Elena muttered softly, a trace of sadness flashing across her eyes. "Renata, let's get to the point. I guess Nineteen wasn't killed by a monster, right?"

Renata couldn't help but look at Claire, and Claire began to explain, "Yes, Your Highness. 'Human-Faced Spiders' don't usually eat humans directly. That cocoon-like thing we saw yesterday is how they eat. They use spider silk and poisonous thorns as a means of transporting nutrients, and usually all the flesh and blood is sucked away, leaving only bones."

"Um…"

Elena lowered her eyes and didn't say anything else.

Seeing this, Renata continued, "If Nineteen had died, then the only one who would have chosen such an extreme measure as self-destruction would have been Novia. Seventeen is a bit of a romantic, and wouldn't do such a thing. But Novia has a strong personality. If it was to protect His Highness's honor and the honor of the Royal Knights, I think she would probably go to extremes."

"Novia... I still remember that when I was a child, I learned sword with her... Renata, tell me, why did Novia choose to take this path?" Elena raised her beautiful eyes.

Renata immediately responded angrily, "Your Highness, if I remember correctly, Lynn had a conflict with Novia the night before last...! I mean, if it was just about dealing with the monsters, Novia wouldn't have had to go to that extent, but it's well known that Lynn Noel is a grudge holder, so I guess Novia's path is closely related to Lynn!"

"Is there any evidence?"

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. Not yet... However, after that magical riot, a large-scale wind-attribute power appeared in the same area! That level of power isn't something anyone below level 60 can wield. Judging from the traces at the scene, we can be sure it was Lin En's work! I saw him swing his sword, and it was definitely an ability of the same attribute. I suspect it was an attack aimed at Seventeen. Since there's no sign of Lin En or Seventeen, it's clear that Lin En abducted Seventeen!"

"So what you mean is that that scumbag Lin En killed Nineteen, forced Novia to death, and finally kidnapped Seventeen, right?!" the gloomy man asked hatefully.

"Yes, that's the case at the moment." Renata continued to avoid the main point.

Yes, since the incident has already happened, it must be determined somehow. Renata's intention is obviously to hold Lin En fully responsible.

This is no small matter.

Once it is finalized, the matter will inevitably spread back to the aristocracy of Kafa very quickly. Although it is impossible to kill Noel, it can aggravate the domestic situation, which is naturally in the interests of the eldest princess.

In any case, Noel is just a pawn. Those who oppose the Grand Princess are always a group of people, not Noel personally. The Grand Princess's policies have harmed the interests of many people!

So, it’s not enough for them to just say it.

The princess didn't let Seaberg sit here to watch the show, her purpose was naturally...

"What do you think, Bishop Seaberg?" Elena looked at Seaberg and asked.

After the Witch Cult attacked Siena, the church's reputation among the people quickly rose. This incident happened less than a month ago, so it was naturally the most powerful time for the church to speak out.

And Seaberg couldn't refuse.

After all, it was the master's order.

only…

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Seventeen is back!!" Before Seaberg could speak, a surprised voice came from outside.

Chapter 451 Attack on the Grand Princess Camp

Seventeen's return seems to be a good thing, but also seems not to be a good thing.

The good news is that my companions are safe and sound, but the bad news is because...

Renata has already pulled the church together to make a judgment on this matter. If you come back now, wouldn't all the previous procedures be in vain?

But that's not the worst.

You must know that Seventeen's mental state is not good. Almost the moment he saw the eldest princess, he immediately became overly excited and burst into tears, pouring out everything that happened, almost telling the whole story of how Novia wanted to kill Lin En but was killed by the monster Lin En in return...

How can you tell the truth at this time?

Don’t you know that this will put the eldest princess in a very unfavorable position?

The only sound left in the tent was Seventeen's crying and wailing.

But Seventeen couldn't be blamed for that. People's joys and sorrows don't always connect. Renata simply wanted to pin the blame on Lin, but Seventeen had truly suffered the calamity. She wanted to express her fear and grievances, so she naturally had no time to think about anything else. She just kept recounting the horrors of the monster Lin, even including some obscene details.

Elena's face remained relatively calm, but Renata's expression was as if she were constipated. After all, Seventeen was the victim, and her appearance clearly showed that she had suffered great psychological trauma. How could she blame the other party?

But in this case, doesn't it become their responsibility?

But at this moment...

"Where is that scumbag Lynn now?!" Charles couldn't help but shout after hearing that Novia was raped by a woman.

Charles was the gloomy man who replaced Novia. He had always admired Novia, and the news of her death was enough to make him furious. Now he learned that she had been stabbed countless times before her death...

Of course he was gritting his teeth and wanted to avenge Novia immediately!

But the problem is...

This kind of thing is fine for settling scores, but it is not suitable for politics.

If the conflict continues to break out at this time, the one who will suffer the loss will definitely be the eldest princess. It is already difficult for her to be crowned queen. If there is unfavorable information that affects her image, wouldn’t that definitely increase the difficulty?

Renata's face turned even worse.

So, those who care about politics care about politics, and those who want revenge want revenge, but no one can comfort the broken Seventeen. It seems that after the death of Nineteen and Novia, there is no one who truly loves her.

But this time...

"Wait, Miss Seventeen, based on my understanding of Lin En, if you really want to kill him, he will not let you come back!" Claire noticed a bright spot.

Renata was also stunned when she heard this, and then immediately asked: "Seventeen, why did Lin En ask you to come back?"

Seeing everyone's serious expressions, Seventeen felt a little aggrieved, but she quickly wiped away her tears and explained, "It's...it's like this, Your Highness. Lin...Lin En said that she wanted me to hold you hostage at a critical moment..."

"You said...hostage?!" Renata's eyelids twitched.

You know, the crime of kidnapping the eldest princess is equivalent to treason. Does this mean declaring war on them?

Just as Renata was thinking things might get serious, a loud noise suddenly rang out from outside. With a loud boom, the world shook as if from an earthquake, and then the Knights sounded an alarm:

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"

"Be on guard! Protect Her Highness the Princess!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

"Damn it! Watch out! Stay away from those branches!!"

"Lady Saint! Be careful!!"

Various sounds rang out one after another, and as the earth shook, it suddenly created a terrifying scene as if a ferocious beast was attacking.

Everyone in the tent suddenly changed their expressions.

Obviously, Seventeen's return was just a pretext to attract attention. When everyone's attention was focused on the woman who had disappeared all night, Lin En took the opportunity to quietly lurk near the camp, distribute the branches of the sacred tree, and then...

Launched an attack brazenly!

The princess and the others emerged, just in time to witness a shocking scene. Within and around the camp, twisted branches sprouted wildly, seemingly wriggling. These branches, possessing the ability to multiply endlessly, spread outward, some attacking the knights. While easily cut off, the branches were endless. Two or three of the weaker knights had already been entangled in the branches. They easily broke free, but were immediately entangled again, seemingly entering a vicious cycle of attrition.

As for the branches, they converged towards the door. As countless branches surged frantically, a gigantic tree man slowly emerged. Dressed in a bathrobe, his chest and legs exposed, and with an evil aura, he sat atop the giant's head. Eventually, a giant of thirty or forty meters tall formed, gazing down at everyone from above.

However, Lin En did not do anything extreme. There is no future in fighting to the death. The world of martial arts is not about fighting and killing.

Having said that, it is also important to let the other party know that I have the ability to inflict serious losses on you. This is negotiating capital.

and so…

"The fire dragon roars!"

In response, Renata launched a counterattack without hesitation!

If they could make the other party shut up before they opened their mouths, then they could treat Lin En's behavior as an assassination of the princess. This was an opportunity that could not be missed. How could Renata, who was well versed in negotiation, miss it?

With a wave of her hand, a giant fire dragon roared out of the magic circle! Flames shot out of the dragon's mouth, almost instantly setting the surrounding branches ablaze.

Obviously, the fire attribute versus the wood attribute is an advantageous duel. Renata saw this clearly and therefore confidently launched a counterattack against Lin En. Once the plan succeeds, they will immediately be held responsible, and all the damage Lin En suffered will be in vain!

Obviously, this behavior is very Renata.

Because she has always looked down on Lin En, and felt that she could not be weaker than a loser when they were of the same level, so she acted without hesitation, thinking that she could easily capture him.

But the problem is that they have clearly acted together once. Anyone with a little common sense will understand that Lin En is completely different from the "Lin En" of the past. This is not a question of looking down on others, but pure arrogance!

and so…

"Ah!"

Lin En chuckled. Seeing the three fire dragons rushing towards him, he did not rush to fight back. Instead, he directly threw the three knights he had just captured towards the fire dragons!

Renata had never imagined Lin En would be so despicable. Her face suddenly turned furious, but it was too late to stop. She watched helplessly as her attack hit her own people and exploded in the air, sending up countless sparks!

Is it okay to beat up your own teammates?

Renata was instantly shocked today and wanted to open her mouth to curse, but she heard Claire's panicked voice beside her:

"careful!"
