Paine's game

Thinking of this, Pan couldn't help but feel angry. He really didn't expect that the king would do this to him. Pan thought that even if he didn't get much benefit, he could at least form a good relationship with the king, but

Now it seems like it was self-defeating.

"Then the king really crossed the river and burned the bridge, saved him, but actually made a hatred? I thought it was too simple. I didn't expect that he cares about face. If I could do it again, I would have to change my face even if I saved him.

Go."

Paine was a little annoyed, but now was not the time to be upset. Fortunately, although the king's calculation seemed very thorough, it was actually full of mistakes. After a little careful consideration, Paine understood the strangeness inside, and only a stupid monster like Old Tom would do it.

Fooled.

"Fortunately, the people in this place are uneducated. If your king is as cunning as a ghost, he will suffer the consequences of being uneducated in the end. Do you think I can't see this little trick?"

Paine complained in his heart that although the king played a disgusting trick, it also showed that he was not sure - after all, in the eyes of the king, he was just a foreigner with stronger force, and the king actually went through so many detours in order to get rid of him.

To use a large circle to play tricks, to put it bluntly, you are guilty and unsure.

So where does he feel guilty?

The answer is also obvious - at least the king does not have much control over this village. This can be seen from the fact that he would rather ask strangers to help him return to the royal capital than ask for help from the Guards team stationed here.

The king is also very uneasy about the Guards, which is theoretically the king's direct army - who made them accept bribes from the Green family and look more like the bodyguards of the Green family?

Therefore, the king had to go through a lot of trouble to get Pan to invite him to the urn.

But in fact, this played into Paine's wish. Originally, he was worried about how to sneak into the ball with Cinderella. Although the king had no good intentions towards him, Paine did not need to play head-on with him, but had to find opportunities to lead him.

Therefore, Paine was happy to accompany him.

"I have to go, but of course it is very risky to go directly like this. With my current ability, if I face an army wearing armor, I don't have much chance of winning. Even with a useless teammate like Old Tom, I won't be able to hold on for long.

, I need stronger allies..."

Various thoughts flashed rapidly in Paine's mind. As his thinking deepened, his mood gradually became more comfortable, because he came up with a very good idea.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Since he no longer trusts the Guards team here, why not break the news to them and see how they react?"

Thinking of this, Paine quickly asked Old Tom. This old guy has lived here for so long and still knows the situation of the Guards very well.

"Old Tom, do you know how many times the Kingdom's Guards have rebelled in recent years?"

"Huh? Why are you asking? Shouldn't you care about what I just told you, that the king invited us to the ball to be knighted?!"

"I ask you and you answer!"

Paine used a threatening tone.

This bully mandrill suddenly showed his true nature.

"The Guards, of course, are not very honest. Although they are theoretically the direct troops protecting the king, because they have enjoyed privileges for a long time, they will be stronger against the weak king. The Guards killed them 30 years ago.

The previous king only welcomed the successor of the current king."

"Oh? It was 30 years ago again?"

After hearing what Old Tom said, Paine had already basically guessed the king's attitude towards the Guards. He thought for a moment and then asked: "Since it was the Guards who killed the previous king, doesn't the current king have no defense against them?"

?"

Considering how petty this king is, it stands to reason that he should turn his back on the talent.

"I think so. It was only 30 years ago that the Guards began to station troops in various places. In the past, they stayed in the royal capital to protect the king."

Old Tom scratched his scalp and said: "I don't know much about this. After all, I'm not a human being - a niche person in the crowd who likes to study politics."

He almost let it slip, but he stopped talking when he saw Cinderella beside him.
