Chapter 56 Jessica Assassination

Seeing this, Jessica sighed and said, "This Arthur is a man, not like our nobles of Baisus... When she heard that she could save her life and property, she could sell anything." At this time, she understood that Arthur killed Rudendolf because she was afraid that he would reveal his knowledge to herself after he was captured.

"Your Highness Princess! Let's spare us! We have no choice but to do so!"

"Please be kind to your highness and let us go! We will devote ourselves to the next battle to defend the city and die!"

"Princess……"

"All these people are taken down! Be in prison! Wait until after the war!" Jessica glanced at the nobles in disgust.

The soldiers of the Guards escorted the dejected nobles past Jessica and walked out the door, while Roger searched the pockets of Rudendolf and Arthur to see if there was anything valuable.

At this moment, a man suddenly rushed out of the noble crowd, grabbed Jessica's arm with one hand, and quickly pulled out a dagger with the other hand and placed it on Jessica's jade neck.

This mutation was unexpected to everyone. Neither Jessica, Roger, nor the Guards soldiers present expected that anyone among the nobles would start a sudden attack. Because these nobles had been so courageous before, and their strength was very weak, not even a second-level person.

"What do you want to do? Let Jessica go!" Roger shouted angrily. His face was very gloomy at this time. Seeing Jessica being held intimidated, he felt indescribable anger.

"Hmph! Do you think I don't know? We were in the wrong team just now, and you just wanted to kill them all! Do you think I don't know? After entering prison, you will be dismissed from the title of aristocratic and confiscated your property. Even if I don't demote me to a slave, I will not be able to survive!" the man said with a grim smile.

Roger glared at the man, and saw that he was about thirty-five or six years old, with dark brown hair and medium figure. He probably should have been a nobleman from a town. At this time, a soldier whispered in Roger's ear: "I asked the person next to him, and this man was named Borgkamp. He was the mayor of Puo Town and had the title of Earl.

If the eyes could kill people, this nobleman who held Jessica had been killed countless times by Roger.

Roger tried hard to calm down his emotions and said, "Okay! Tell me, what are the requirements? As long as you let Your Highness go, everything is easy to discuss."

"Hmph! Do you think I don't know? Even if you promised me now, you will repent immediately when I let the princess go! In the end, my fate will only be even worse!" Borgkamp said with a ferocious face.

"So, I'll let the princess be buried with me now! Haha! I'm a little Count, and I'm actually a princess from the Kingdom of Baiss for me to be buried with me, which is worth it!" At this time, Borgkamp's dagger holding his right hand was about to touch Jessica's neck.

"Wait!" Roger quickly raised his right hand and shouted.

"What else do you have to say? Do you want to save your woman? Haha! Kneel down and kowtow a few times, maybe I can let her live a few more minutes!" Borgkamp said with a grim smile.

Roger suddenly stared at Borgkamp behind him, and a look of fear appeared on his face.

Borgkamp subconsciously glanced back, but found that nothing was wrong. He was about to use force in his hand to kill Jessica, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his mind. He seemed to be unable to think as if he was stabbed by a needle.

At this moment, he heard a "whoosh" sound in his ear, and then felt a sharp pain in his throat. His eyes turned black and he fell to the ground.

Roger then put away his crossbow in his sleeve. He secretly called luck in his heart. If he hadn't obtained Tom's crossbow before coming and deciphered the secret of the spiritual magic rune, he would have cut Jessica's jade neck with a dagger before he could have shot the arrow into Borgkamp's throat.

"Jessica, are you okay? You're not injured?" Roger hurriedly hugged Jessica's body and asked.

At this time, Jessica's face showed a painful expression. She moaned and said only: "I..." and then fainted.

"Ah! Jessica, what's wrong with you?" Roger put his ears on her chest at this time, feeling that her heartbeat was very weak. But after looking carefully at her body, he found no scars.

"What's going on?" Roger was anxious.

At this moment, Adams ran in from outside the door. When he saw Roger holding Jessica, he was shocked and said, "What's wrong with your highness?"

"I don't know! A nobleman attacked her just now and was killed by me. But this man did not hurt her! For some reason, she suddenly lost her knowledge." Roger said anxiously.

"Then let's carry His Highness to the church! See if Bishop Muller can save her." Adams suggested.

Roger immediately picked up Jessica and rushed out with a quick step. Looking at Jessica's closed eyes and long eyelashes, Roger felt his heart was like a knife. Only then did he truly feel how important Jessica is in his mind.

After arriving at the church, Muller was shocked when he saw Roger rushing in with Jessica in his arms. He quickly called all the pastors in the church to diagnose Jessica.

Roger was walking back and forth outside the treatment room. He was very anxious. Recalling his voice and smile when he was with Jessica in the academy, Roger felt a piercing pain.

"Roger, Princess, she has a sensual appearance, I believe it should be fine." Adams couldn't help but be moved by Roger when he saw that he kept paced back and forth, and thought that although Roger might be an ambitious, he might be sincere to the princess. So he comforted him.

"Oh, I mainly don't understand why she fainted in an instant? She was not injured in any way." Roger said with some annoyance.

At this time, the door of the room opened and Muller walked out of the room with a sweat on his face.

"Sir Mueller, what's going on? What happened to Jessica?" Roger and Adams hurriedly approached and asked.

"She was infected with a poison called a magic repeller. This poison will cause the magician to fall into a coma and gradually corrode the magician's magic. For a magician, it is a very vicious potion, but it is very difficult to prepare. Generally, ordinary magicians do not have the ability to prepare it unless they are supported by a large force. The magic repeller is a colorless and odorless liquid. As long as it comes into contact with the skin of the human body, it will penetrate into the body and play a role. I heard you talk about the whole banquet, it should be applied to your tableware, such as cups, knifes and forks. When you pick it up, the magic repelling potion will penetrate into your body. It's just a bit strange, why are you not poisoned? Logically speaking, Ludendorf would not just want to poison the princess, but don't want to poison you!" Muller said slightly strangely.
