Chapter 334 - 334 Count Ottle
334 Count Ottle
When Su Ming heard Zelda’s words, he first narrowed his eyes and walked out of the room.
“In that case, let’s go meet this so-called count of the kingdom.”
Zelda was slightly taken aback at first, but once he came to his senses, he quickly followed Su Ming.
She could tell that Su Ming was clearly a little angry.
That was why she did not ask him anything and simply followed behind him.
Before long, Su Ming arrived at the dungeon where all sorts of criminals were kept in the Elf Valley.
Zelda was beside him, and there were a few Elven warriors behind them.
It did not take long for them to reach the deepest part of the dungeon and arrive in front of a simple and crude cell.
In the cell, Count Ottle was sitting on his stone bed with a calm expression.
When he heard the commotion outside, he did not open his eyes immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes and said, “Please leave. I will not betray my Kingdom. No matter how you torture me, I will not change!”
When Su Ming heard his words, he cast a glance at the seemingly determined expression on Count Ottle’s face.
Su Ming rubbed the center of his brows and said, “You seem to be a lot tougher than I thought.”
When Count Ottle heard Su Ming’s words, he immediately opened his eyes.
Once he saw the group of people outside the door clearly, he quickly fixed his gaze on Su Ming.
“It’s you!”
Su Ming nodded slightly and turned around to have an Elf warrior open the door to the cell.
The Elven warrior hesitated at first. “Great Prophet, he might hurt you.”
When Su Ming heard that, he turned around and looked at the Elven warrior beside him.
“In your eyes, am I that weak? Would I be injured by that man who is locked up inside?”
Hearing this, the Elven warrior was slightly stunned.
Soon after, he first looked at Su Ming, then at Count Ottle.
The expression on his face immediately became a little strange. Then, without saying anything, he helped Su Ming open the door to the cell.
After seeing this scene, the expression on Count Ottle’s face suddenly became extremely strange.
An expression of embarrassment and suppressed anger flashed across his face.
Count Ottle rubbed his forehead and said, “You’re that confident that I can’t hurt you?”
Su Ming knew that he was asking him.
Once he pushed open the door to the cell, Su Ming walked right up to him.
“As long as you’re not stupid, you won’t attack me.”
Su Ming stood before Count Ottle. His expression was extremely calm, and there was an indescribable confidence in him.
At this time, he was looking down at Count Ottle with a condescending attitude.
The contrast between the two of them made Earl Ottle’s face flash with an indescribable embarrassment.
After awkwardly looking away, Count Ottle snorted. “If you’re here just to embarrass, then please leave.”
When Su Ming heard Count Ottle’s words, he chuckled softly and said, “You should be very clear about why I came to find you.”
Hearing this, Count Ottle narrowed his eyes and said, “I’ve said it a long time ago, I will not betray the Kingdom.”
When Su Ming heard Count Ottle’s words, his expression remained noncommittal.
He chuckled softly and said, “Is that so?”
When Count Ottle heard this, he did not answer. Instead, he snorted coldly.
He used this method to express his attitude and gave his answer.
Su Ming’s expression did not change much when he saw this.
“Of course, you can be stubborn, but the situation of the resource points can not be hidden.”
“Do you think that after Duke Lincoln finds out about the situation there, he will feel that an unbelievable and mysterious force has taken all of you down without a trace?”
“Or do you think that there’s a shocking traitor among the people he sent? Not only did this traitor betray the Kingdom, but he also betrayed him?”
As Su Ming said these words, Count Ottle’s expression kept changing, and it looked incredibly ugly.
Su Ming watched as Count Ottle’s expression kept changing, but he did not say a single word during the process.
As time passed, Count Ottle took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, “What exactly do you want to do?”
Count Ottle’s words were clearly a question, but no matter what, there was no trace of unyielding spirit in them. It was obvious that he could not be unyielding in the current situation.
Su Ming chuckled softly. “As long as you answer all my questions, and tell me what I want to know.”
“In Duke Lincoln’s eyes, you are still a loyal man. You are not a traitor to him, and you are not a traitor to the Kingdom. I think this should be a good condition for you.”
When Su Ming said these words, he stared at Count Ottle calmly, but there was a powerful, invasive look in his eyes.
He knew that in the current situation, Count Ottle would not be able to refuse his conditions.
Although Count Ottle was not very capable, he was still considered a smart person.
Su Ming knew very well how capable he was.
It was also because of this that Count Ottle would never give up his power in the Vast Flame Kingdom unless it was absolutely necessary.
Under such circumstances, he was also very clear that he could not become a traitor in the eyes of Duke Lincoln.
That was why when Su Ming said those words, he seemed to be giving him the right to choose.
However, in fact, there was only one choice for Count Ottle.
The crowd fell into a long silence.
In this silence, no one spoke first.
Count Ottle could clearly feel that the pressure on his body was constantly rising during this process.
This pressure almost crushed his body, causing his originally straight back to gradually lower in the process.
Finally, Count Ottle bent down in front of Su Ming.
His originally firm expression also turned into a somewhat humiliated expression.
“If you want to ask something, just ask.”
After saying this, Count Ottle’s body relaxed completely, almost crumpling onto the ground.
