Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

"Given such serious consequences... in my opinion, President, that Sean Aurelius is a spy; he must have joined forces with Xiao Ce..."

After hearing Victor King's words, Nie Bing looked at him coldly: "It wasn't you who killed some people from Lingas City for no reason in the first place, which caused those individuals to gather... If there's really a problem, I think it's you who's at fault..."

Upon hearing Nie Bing's words, Victor King immediately explained, "President, it wasn't me... I didn't... I wasn't trying to prove anything..."

"Shut up... What Sean Aurelius did just now, in my opinion, was perfectly fine..."

As Nie Bing spoke, she immediately looked at Ed White on the side.

Ed White didn't wait for Nie Bing to speak before saying, "President, I agree with you, at least regarding what just happened. I think Sean Aurelius is fine..."

Nie Bing nodded, and Viktor King, his face grim, knelt down before her.

"President..."

Before Viktor King could speak, Nie Bing waved her hand, "Of course, I also think you're fine for now..."

After hearing Nie Bing's words, Victor King seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

His expression immediately turned extremely grim, and he asked Nie Bing, "Then who is the real spy? With things in such chaos now, if that spy of Xiao Ce is still around, he should have escaped by now..."

Upon hearing Viktor King's words, Nie Bing waved her hand and said, "This matter is no longer important! Didn't any of you notice it just now?"

Both of them looked at Nie Bing, then asked her with a hint of confusion, "What did you notice?"

Nie Bing said to them, "Xiao Ce was already over there... Perhaps we were all deceived by Xiao Ce... That Xiao Ce might be in a more secluded place... After all, the information sent by His Holiness the Bishop can't be real-time; there might be some discrepancies..."

In fact, both Victor King and Ed White clearly saw the voice and Xiao Ce's huge, glowing figure.

However, they all wondered if it was a miracle.

After all, the sound that seemed to come from all directions, as if from the sky, still seemed somewhat unbelievable to them when they thought about it now.

The two nodded, and Viktor King dared not say another word.

After all, Victor King knew Nie Bing quite well.

He knew that Nie Bing was a very scheming woman, and that she might say nothing at all.

But in my heart, I was already silently beginning to have doubts.

Ed White nodded: "Master, we really did see and hear it just now... Surely there aren't really gods in this world. Was that some kind of trick he played?"

Nie Bing nodded, then answered Ed White with certainty, "That's right, this is definitely something fishy. It's very likely that this is all a trap he set..."

After hearing Nie Bing's words, Ed White's eyes widened, and he said, "President, do you mean that the person who reported the information to you might also have been arranged by Xiao Ce?"

Upon seeing this, Victor King quickly spoke to Nie Bing, saying, "Lord Nie Bing, do you mean that this was all part of his plan, that he had you do this so he could stage that whole thing? Is it true that whether we fire or not, whether we kill those civilians in Lingas City or not, he has ways to incite those people?"

Nie Bing nodded, finding it increasingly plausible: "Very likely. Of course, those who report the information are the bishop's trusted henchmen; no one but His Holiness the bishop can be swayed... So, there's only one possibility: Xiao Ce deliberately let His Holiness the bishop know some information... It was all part of his plan..."

After hearing Nie Bing's words, Ed White said awkwardly, "If that's the case, isn't that too terrifying..."

After hearing Ed White's words, Nie Bing nodded: "You all must have had some contact with Xiao Ce and Yin Pan'er, right..."

The two men nodded.

Nie Bing thought about it more and more and felt it was possible, because he knew Xiao Ce very well; this man was extremely resourceful.

Nie Bing remembered that when she first met Xiao Ce, he was the kind of person who thought a hundred steps ahead for every one step he took. She suspected that all of this was part of Xiao Ce's plan...

After this was mentioned, the people present looked grim and asked Nie Bing, "President, what do we do next? What can we do?"

After hearing Ed White's words, Nie Bing remained silent for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No rush... If he wants to fight us head-on, we have plenty of ways..."

Then Nie Bing said to Victor King, "Victor King has many of our people in Lingas City. Did you give them any orders before you left?"

Victor King nodded: "I've issued the orders. Don't let them fight head-on. Withdraw from Lingas City. Don't clash with these mobs... You can try to seek refuge with the Sion family first... Because things happened so suddenly, I don't know if they have any backup plans, so I came up with this plan..."

As he spoke, Victor King looked at Nie Bing with some anticipation, though to be honest, he was still a little apprehensive.

After hearing Viktor King's words, Nie Bing nodded: "Good, you did very well..."

Nie Bing's single word of praise put Viktor King at ease...

Victor King nodded: "Then let's continue..."

Nie Bing said, "No rush. This time, things happened suddenly. We'll prepare and go back immediately... If we leave like this, all the things I've talked about before will have been for nothing..."

Ed White said, "Indeed, sir. Our losses this time were not significant. Apart from some ordinary soldiers who died and a few Lightguards who were injured, our strength is not a problem... The navy is still at sea, escorting us. As for the land forces, they should have already withdrawn from Lingas in a timely manner..."

"In other words, our apparent retreat makes them think they've won. In reality, it doesn't harm us at all... On the contrary, this incident has given us the opportunity to make a decision..."

After hearing Ed White's words, Nie Bing asked curiously, "Oh? What kind of determination?"

"Those are the people who were brainwashed by Xiao Ce before. They're completely unacceptable... People like that are useless; using them will only create problems. This time, we don't even know where they got their firearms..."

Nie Bing nodded: "That's right. Since we've given them face and they don't want it, then we'll go and kill them all..."

After composing herself, Nie Bing asked the people around her, "By the way, did any of you see Sean Aurelius just now?"

Ed White and Victor King both shook their heads.

At this moment, a guardian immediately reported, "Reporting to the guild leader, we just saw him being grabbed by a void force and then slammed heavily to the ground. His condition is unknown..."

Victor King then said to Nie Bing, "President, judging from how he provoked those rioters and how he hurt Xiao Ce's confidante Morgana... those rioters won't let him get away with it, and Xiao Ce certainly won't..."

Just then, Nie Bing nodded, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

In fact, Sean Aurelius (Xiao Ce) has already proven himself in his own way...

As long as this person is alright, Nie Bing believes that Sean Aurelius is a talented individual...

At this moment, another Light Guardian spoke up: "Whether he's alive or dead, I don't know... However, as we left, I saw Kate Aurelius carrying someone on his back, which should be Sean Aurelius... He boarded Aurelius's ship..."

Upon hearing what Guangwei said, Nie Bing's expression seemed to rekindle hope.

Then, looking at Guangwei with anticipation, he asked, "Are you sure?"

Guangwei nodded firmly, then said, "Reporting to the guild master, I am certain... although I am certain... however, all I know is that Kate is carrying someone on her back, and that person might be..."

Nie Bing nodded, then asked his subordinates, "By the way, we shouldn't let our ship sail away. Since those individuals haven't taken over the navy, they can't pursue us... Next, send out beehives to contact the patriarchs of various families, urging them to approach us, board this warship, and discuss the alliance plan together..."

After hearing Nie Bing's words, his subordinate nodded and then went to deliver the message.

Nie Bing paused for a moment, then continued, "Right, continue passing on the message..."

The men under her command were stunned and looked at Nie Bing.

Nie Bing didn't continue speaking; instead, she froze on the spot.

Just then, Nie Bing pondered for a moment: "Go and have the Lannister navy escort us around the perimeter, to give those family patriarchs a sense of security..."

The subordinate nodded and then went on to give orders.

Just then, Ed White said to Nie Bing, "President, those who know what just happened may know that it was some kind of trick Xiao Ce was using, but for those who don't know, won't they start to worship Xiao Ce like a god...? Will this have a big impact on what we're going to do next?"

Hearing Ed White's words, Nie Bing nodded and then said, "That's right, it will definitely have an impact... So, we need to call them over as soon as possible... Don't worry, Xiao Ce's tricks might still fool the public, but these people won't risk their entire family's fortune and lives just because they saw a few miraculous things..."

Ed White nodded after hearing Nie Bing's words: "Alright... I'll go and inform them right away..."

Nie Bing nodded.

Victor King said with a fierce expression, "President, are those Iron Legion units we've hidden in secret places still usable? If the Iron Legion units can be used this time, those rioters will be slaughtered as easily as cutting melons and vegetables by those Iron Legion units..."

Nie Bing nodded: "That's right, it was because of a problem with the communication system... but His Excellency the Bishop has already tried to restore it..."

Victor King and Ed White nodded. Actually, they didn't know much about the communication system that Nie Bing was talking about at this moment.

He only understood some of it...

At this moment, a robot that had been standing behind Nie Bing remained silent.

Suddenly, he turned to Nie Bing and said, "President, the Bishop needs to contact you..."

Nie Bing's eyes lit up immediately after hearing the robot's words.

"What? His Holiness the Bishop is contacting me? Wasn't the communication system damaged?"

The robot said to Nie Bing, "President, the communication system has been repaired... His Holiness the Bishop is online..."

Hearing the robot say that, Nie Bing's face lit up with an incredibly happy smile...

Not only was Nie Bing extremely happy, but at that moment, Victor King and Ed White, who were standing to the side, were also very happy.

Although they didn't understand everything perfectly, they were able to understand overall once the communication system was restored.

After all, they had just asked Nie Bing about the root cause of why those Iron Man Legions couldn't be used.

It's because there was a problem with the communication system.

The communication system has now been restored. They don't know what it means, but at least the Iron Legion can use it.

If the Iron Legion were to become available, they would absolutely have the upper hand on the battlefield.

At this moment, Nie Bing was also surprised for a long time before she came back to her senses.

His face showed some excitement, and then he looked at Ed White, Victor King, and the Lightguards.

These people didn't linger; at that moment, they all understood and left.

After they left, Nie Bing said directly to the robot, "Open it..."

As the robot spoke, a screen of light was projected from its eyes.

It wasn't a direct projection of a person's image; the projection looked like the simplest chat window appearing in the secret room of Lost Island.

At this moment, the other side sent a message: [Nie Bing, just now, I discovered that the signal system has been restored. You can now resume controlling the Iron Man Legion. Inform me if your spy has been caught?]
