Chapter 723 Mordred: Yecheng is my real good brother!
Following Epsilon's order, a pig-headed man with chains wrapped around his body, a little depressed, and looking extremely embarrassed was dragged in front of everyone by two people from the Shadow Courtyard.
And this person is none other than Mordred, who was previously captured by the "Court of Shadows" and is the ninth among the Knights of the Round Table, known as the "Devil Sword of Human Transcendence".
At this moment, Mordred completely lost his previous arrogance and elegance.
His originally handsome face was beaten beyond recognition, and even judging from the blood stain under his crotch, this guy was probably brutally murdered.
"Brother...oh no, sister...Mordred, you guys actually tortured the Knights of the Round Table in our order like this!
Mordred is not only my guide, but also my brother, my beloved relative and friend! "
To be honest, Night City's acting is very exaggerated, and if Sid were here, he would probably be criticized.
However, due to a series of previous manifestations of sainthood, the sect under his command has now become a super fan of Night City, and their IQ is not at all online now.
"Give us the device that controls the 'Black Rose' and let us leave, and we will return this guy to you."
Hearing Beta's words, before Ye Cheng said anything, the three of Jiado and others walked to Ye Cheng and said, "Lord Galahad, we can't promise her!"
"Yes, we finally defeated the fourth demon king Ragnarok and completely controlled the "Black Rose".
If you have this great achievement, it is a sure thing that your seat will be improved. "
Because they were worried about Ye Cheng Nao Feng agreeing to the other party's conditions, Kaduo and the three of them felt that as Sir Galahad's "confidant knights", it was necessary to remind him.
Moreover, both inside and outside the words hinted at Night City. Although Mordred is the ninth seat of the "Knights of the Round Table", he has nothing to do with them.
If the other party doesn't die, how will they be promoted?
It is even better to say that the other party is dead, so that more seats will be vacant among the "Knights of the Round Table". With such a powerful Lord Galahad, they may be able to occupy one of them that day.
Mordred would be captured alive because he was too weak and had nothing to do with them.
The people in the sect are all egoists to begin with, and there is absolutely no need for them to exchange the merits they have for a piece of trash.
"Release my 'good brother' Mordred, and I can let you leave alive. As for the 'Black Rose', our cult has carefully prepared it for so long, and it is impossible to give it to you.
If it is known within the sect that I handed over the "Black Rose" to others, then I should be punished. "
If Ye Cheng agrees too readily, no matter how stupid the fans of the religious sect under his command are, they will definitely find it strange, so proper bargaining is necessary.
Using Mordred to trade was naturally Night City's initial arrangement.
Naturally, it is impossible for "Black Rose" to be left to the cult, but if it is given directly to the "Shadow Courtyard", then his undercover status in the cult will no longer be lurking.
It's not okay to fail on purpose. He has just joined the sect not long ago. If he fails on the first mission, it will give the impression that the new member of the sect is very useless, and he will have no hope of further promotion and salary increase in the future.
After thinking about it for a while, Ye Cheng decided on the current plan.
He can have certain failures in his actions, but such failures must not be caused by him.
To put it simply, he had to find someone to take the blame. As luck would have it, Mordred, with his delicate features, was a perfect fit.
By using it in exchange for "Black Rose", not only did "Black Rose" be delivered to the hands of Shadow Courtyard openly, but the main responsibility for this result was borne by Mordred.
After all, when it comes to the Kingdom of Oriana, he, Ye Cheng, is already quite powerful. Not only did he indirectly control the kingdom, but he also defeated the Demon King and successfully controlled the "Black Rose". It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the MVP of the whole game.
But as a teammate, Mordred is not effective. What can he do in Night City?
"Don't push yourself too far in the Shadow Courtyard! If our Lord Galahad hadn't valued friendship, the rest of the Order wouldn't have cared about the life or death of this trash... Lord Mordred.
If I can let you leave alive, you should be laughing, but you still want "Black Rose". Such a deal is not equal at all! "
Seeing the bitches in the Shadow Courtyard scolding their noses and faces, before Night City could react, the loyal Kaduo stepped forward angrily.
Beta didn't care about Kaduo's angry shouting. Instead, he took out a long sword and stabbed Mordred in the abdomen without any hesitation.
Mordred, who had taken the essence of Diablos, had extremely strong vitality. Even if his waist was hit, it would not be considered a fatal injury to him.
But the severe pain still made him scream in pain on the spot.
"As I said, we only want Black Rose, and you don't need to worry about whether we can leave safely.
We Lord Dark Night are also in the royal capital now. Although your strength is not bad, are you sure you can defeat us Lord Shadow? "
Seeing Mordred's waist being fucked, Ye Cheng felt no emotion in his heart, but on the outside he showed a distressed expression.
Seeing their Lord Galahad's expression, the three of them knew what decision Ye Cheng had made. They were about to say something more, but were interrupted by Ye Cheng reaching out and saying, "No need to say more, I promised you before." But Mordred will save him.
Unexpectedly, he suffered so much in the "Shadow Courtyard", and even the cows were missing.
I was able to enter the Order because of Mordred, the guide. As long as I can save him, I will accept all the punishments from the Order.
If a person has no faith, he will not stand. I will never break the promise I made. I said I would save him, so I must save him.
Even if the person captured today is not Mordred, but someone else among you, I will make the same choice without hesitation. "
Hearing Ye Cheng's heartfelt words, the beasts and horses of Ye Cheng's cult immediately burst into tears.
If they were playing games at this moment, Ye Cheng would probably be able to see words like "Loyalty +100" popping up above their heads.
The oxen and horses of the cult are like this, and Mordred, whose waist has just been fucked, needs no more words at this moment.
When he saw that Ye Cheng did not hesitate to throw the device that controlled the "Black Rose" to Beta in exchange for his own life, Mordred was even more moved.
Ye Cheng is a real good brother! Frankly speaking, if it was him, Mordred, who had changed places, he would definitely not get the credit in exchange for another person's life.
Ye Cheng's noble character is simply a breath of fresh air in their sect!
Winning Night City Omega into the cult was definitely the most correct decision in Mordred's life!
