Eliza addressed the group, saying, "Alright, Miss Boudica said that those who wish to see him must go alone! If you don't want to go, we won't force you..."

These people were already somewhat wary, but after Eliza told them they had no choice but to go over there themselves.

These people became even more hesitant.

Eliza gestured for them to proceed and then said nothing more.

The heads of these families looked at each other.

"What's there to be afraid of? We're here to help Miss Boudica... she's just inviting us up. I don't want to harm her, and Miss Boudica certainly wouldn't harm me either..."

One of them started walking away as he spoke.

After walking up to Eliza, the patriarch of the family nodded slightly.

Eliza simply nodded.

That's how people are often; when no one takes the lead, no one dares to do anything.

But once someone takes the lead, everyone becomes much bolder.

Everyone followed suit.

Moreover, once someone goes up there, the others become emboldened.

They followed closely behind, taking small, quick steps.

All the most prominent nobles in the entire city of Luntini went up.

Although there were quite a few people at the foot of the city wall, only about thirty people actually made it up.

After seeing these people.

Boudica smiled slightly: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome... Thank you for coming to help me..."

Boudica bowed to everyone, performing the most standard aristocratic etiquette.

Just then, the noble chieftains in the group heard Boudica's words and gave an awkward smile, their faces showing some embarrassment.

“Miss Boudica, it seems we’re too late… It looks like everything’s already finished here!”

“Yes, Miss Boudica, you should have told us beforehand. We rushed over as soon as we heard the news…”

“Yes, yes, Miss Boudica, we're all very close friends. It's too much of a formality for you not to come looking for us…”

Listening to these people, their hypocritical words flowing freely...

Boudica's smile immediately froze.

Then Boudica's expression turned extremely ugly.

"Gentlemen, I'm very happy that you came to help me, even if you're late... However, what you said makes me a little unhappy..."

Boudica spoke very directly, and it was clear that the patriarchs of these noble families did not understand what Boudica meant.

"Miss Boudica, did we say something that displeased you?"

"Yes, Miss Boudica, I wonder what we said that upset you..."

After listening to their words, Boudica said, "You can be late, you can not help me, I understand! But you can't treat me like a fool and try to fool me..."

Boudica's directness immediately turned the faces of these family patriarchs extremely ugly.

For a moment, no one dared to respond.

Boudica continued to address the crowd: "Ladies and gentlemen, I, Targaryen Boudica, was trafficked to various places by human traffickers when I was young. I traveled to many places and saw many things and all kinds of people."

"I've witnessed the ugliest things in the world, the most vicious hearts, and the most scheming. I understand everything you've done..."

"It's like when you first tried to get close to me, it was for my weapons... You thought my weapons were very powerful, and you thought that if you could get my help, your family's status would rise directly."

"At that time, you were eager to befriend us. However, then Paul appeared and he raised troops. They raised troops, shouting that they wanted to avenge Michel and also wanted to drag Frank into it and associate him with the Illuminati."

"So, you were afraid that if you helped me, you'd be seen as part of Frank's group... I understood you then. Even now, with just over a hundred of us, we've defeated fifty thousand of them and forced them to surrender... This gave you hope, and that's why you wanted to join me, why you rushed over, saying you were there to support me..."

"Of course, I understand you. It's human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm. If I were in your shoes, I could understand! After all, we're just acquaintances, not even friends. There's no need to put your entire family in such a dangerous situation because of someone you only know..."

"However, even now, I understand you. You're saying this because you're afraid I'll blame you!"

"However, while we understand, it doesn't mean we support you... it doesn't mean we support what you're doing! We invited you here today to say something. Frank and I are indeed in cahoots, and what we're doing is indeed aimed at overthrowing the Illuminati..."

"I welcome your cooperation. However, I will not blame you if you do not cooperate with me."

"However, I'll say it again: you don't have to cooperate with us, but you can't betray us. If I find out you're going to betray me, that's what will happen to Paul."

"I can be completely open and honest with my partners. But I can also make someone who wants to betray me or harm me open and honest with me..."

Boudica's words caused the expressions of the people on this side to turn extremely grim.

Just then, Yin Pan'er whispered to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, I was initially skeptical when you said that Yin Pan'er had surpassed her teacher. But now, I believe it without a doubt..."

After listening to Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "To be honest, Boudica's behavior was unexpected. Boudica has never shown this side of herself to me before."

Yin Pan'er said to Xiao Ce, "This also proves that your judgment of people is really accurate..."

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Your praise really makes me a little uncomfortable..."

Yin Pan'er looked around the arena: "These people have already been intimidated..."

Upon hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce immediately looked towards the arena.

Looking at the situation inside the arena, the expressions of those noble patriarchs were extremely awkward.

They were exposed by Boudica, which wasn't too embarrassing.

However, Boudica's words just now made them look at him in a new light.

They treat me completely differently...

Just then, Boudica noticed that these people were all looking at each other.

Boudica smiled and said, "Those who want to cooperate with me today can stay. Of course, those who don't want to cooperate with me can also go back. I, Boudica, assure you I won't make things difficult for you... but there's one principle: you can't even think about harming me..."

"Of course, those of you who haven't made up your minds can stay here for a while... and think it over..."

Boudica made it very clear.

But this will cause these people a lot of confusion!

Just then, Eliza hurriedly came over again.

Then, turning to Boudica, he said, "Miss, the King has arrived..."

Seeing their hesitation, Boudica addressed them, "Ladies and gentlemen, please don't rush... This is no small matter; on the contrary, it's a major one. You need to think it over carefully, and then again..."

After listening to Boudica's words, everyone nodded, and they dared not make any rash remarks.

The logic is simple: Boudica said you don't have to cooperate with me.

However, once you've chosen to cooperate with me, you can't keep changing your mind again and again.

Boudica's directness, and the occasional bloody wind blowing from the city walls, already spoke volumes.

They might normally be prone to making careless remarks, but they certainly won't dare to do that now.

Moreover, Eliza's voice wasn't quiet at all, so their side heard it clearly...

Actually, this was also Boudica's instruction to Eliza.

These people are here now to see what attitude King William Patton will have when he arrives.

In fact, these people have a very simple idea: they don't want to be in the minority; they just want to be in the majority.

Because people are prone to herd mentality.

It's possible that a person is afraid to do something.

But when you do it together, you gain courage.

...

At this moment, William Barton and Queen Millie stood waiting on one side at the foot of the city wall.

The two people clearly did not look happy.

There is no other reason.

This place, in theory, should also be considered part of their territory.

Logically speaking, they should be able to go wherever they're allowed to go...

As a result, they even needed the support and consent of others to go to their own territory.

This displeased them somewhat, but despite their displeasure...

However, these emotions are something you can only control yourself.

After all, they have power and guns.

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long before they saw Grandma Eliza hurriedly come downstairs.

Seeing the anxious expression on Grandma Eliza's face greatly replenished their damaged self-esteem.

Just then, William Barton feigned great patience and said directly to Eliza, "Grandma Eliza, no rush, no rush, take your time..."

Eliza chuckled upon hearing William Barton's smile, then said, "Your Majesty, we cannot keep you waiting here any longer... Due to the ongoing war, Miss Boudica has placed this area under martial law. We are truly sorry to have kept Your Majesty waiting..."

After hearing Eliza's words, William Barton's initially very displeased expression softened considerably.

"It's alright, it's alright. Has Miss Boudica agreed to let us go up now?"

Eliza remained very polite to William Barton, saying, "That's only natural, Your Majesty. This is your territory...you can come and go as you please...It's entirely your kindness that you've allowed our young lady to stay here..."

Eliza was praising her relentlessly, which was also Boudica's intention.

My purpose was simply to coax him and lower his guard...

The purpose was naturally good, and William Barton and Queen Millie, who were originally very unhappy, now had smiles on their faces.

The two of them looked incredibly happy.

Just then, Eliza said to William Barton, "Your Majesty, please..."

William Barton, accompanied by Queen Millie and under Eliza's guidance, was once again filled with confidence.

The two of them walked up with their heads held high and chests puffed out.

As they walked up, William Barton and Queen Millie looked at all the people in Lundini.

At this moment, he stood respectfully to one side.

William Barton, displeased with these opportunists, still managed a sarcastic remark...

"Oh dear, esteemed noble patriarchs, weren't you all watching the show from the castle just now? Why did you all rush over here so soon after Miss Boudica won the war? You're all quite clever..."

William Barton's words caused a flash of displeasure to appear on the faces of the noble patriarchs present.

However, this is Boudica's side, and it's unclear what Boudica's attitude is towards William Barton.

So, these people endured it all.

They didn't say anything, but just gave them a disapproving look.

They didn't respond, but Queen Millie didn't seem to intend to let them off the hook.

Their expressions didn't look very friendly.

Queen Millie continued her sarcastic tone, "Gentlemen, why are you all looking at us like that? Isn't it obvious? Weren't you all watching the show in that castle? We saw it clearly; you came over as soon as Miss Boudica won..."

Queen Millie put it even more directly.

Just then, before the nobles on the side could speak...

Boudica then addressed William Barton and Queen Millie, saying, "William Barton, Millie El. You two, well, let's not even talk about them. Aren't you just like them? Aren't you just watching the show? What, do you think you're any better at watching the show?"

Boudica, with a mocking expression on her face, said to him with a forced smile.

Upon hearing Boudica's words, William Barton and Queen Millie's expressions turned extremely grim.

The reason was simple: they never expected Yin Pan'er to dare to call them by their names and openly confront them.

This is unacceptable to them.

They were about to get angry, but then they remembered that only the two of them had come up, and none of their guards had followed.
