Chapter 328 Three Minutes of Reversal
The girl who was impaled on the fingertips of the steel giant still had a calm expression on her face. Although she frowned because of the pain, there was no fear in her eyes that the puppeteer wanted to see.

Looking at the girl who was caught in his hands and lost the ability to resist, like a weak lamb at the mercy of others, this aroused the curiosity of the puppeteer.He is quite confident in his own mind. Although he is not ashamed to say that he is resourceful, as an expert in manipulating people's hearts, he can at least be called foresight.

He understood the girl's expression, which meant that even when her life and death were under the control of others, the girl still had the confidence to win. This unreasonable confidence confused him.And this confusion made his interest in the girl outweigh the importance of capturing Diana at this moment.

Even in the state of being seriously injured and endangered, the strong perception ability of the gold-ranked powerhouse can still cover the entire sword castle. The puppeteer's heart moved, and he noticed the fire that shot up to the sky in another direction.The rebel forces of the Beifeng family have not shown up just now, and this is probably the reason.If this is also in the girl's plan, then the 3 minutes she said is definitely not just talking about it

But... why?
"Mr. Puppeteer...don't you understand?" Tiana coughed twice, covered her torn abdomen, raised her head reluctantly and smiled confidently.

Seeing the girl's expression, the puppeteer's face was cloudy and uncertain. Although he was a little dizzy now due to excessive bleeding, this should not be an excuse for not reacting yet.He suddenly realized that the girl's little trick might not be clever, but it touched his blind spot in thinking.Seeing the flames in the distance, the puppeteer's heart skipped a beat.

"That's the armory of Sword Castle...Compared with the favor of the royal family, obviously, their own fundamental interests are more important, right? Those nobles of Sword Castle...Since they can seek glory for the benefit of the seller, in the face of greater interests, why not Will you change your position?" Tiana wiped the corner of her bloody mouth and smiled softly.

"Interesting idea." The puppeteer raised his fingertips, gently picked up Tiana's face, and said with a sneer, "You actually pinned your hopes on those nobles, what qualifications do they have..."

"It's already there...after Miss Diana and you have both lost."

The girl's words made the puppeteer feel like he was struck by lightning, and his expression changed instantly.Speaking of this, if he still can't turn the corner, then he will really be ashamed of his name.

The nobles, especially the local nobles, to put it bluntly, are a group of bastards who sit on their ancestral foundations and wait to die.There may be occasional individual mutants among them, but as a whole, you can't find any human virtues from such a group of pigs who are greedy for profit and fear of death.

Interests are to nobles what sex is to flies. In the face of sufficient interests, they can abandon all pretense and integrity without hesitation.

Previously, the sword castle nobles launched a rebellion and sold the heirs of the Beifeng family to the royal family. The most fundamental purpose was profit.Both the Beifeng family and the royal family can get the benefits they want, and Diana, who is a victim, doesn't matter at all.

This is a business with a foul smell, but no matter what, since it is a business, there is a price, and a price means negotiation and compromise.So far, although the business itself has not been affected, the price tag of one of the parties has changed invisibly—that is the strength displayed by Diana.

Michelo, the former head of the Beifeng family, believed that his daughter was very likely to become a new generation of sword masters, but this very possibility itself was full of uncertainties. In the history of the Beifeng family, there has never been a shortage of amazing talents. For the first generation, the adjective "possible" is not an exaggeration for any of them, but in the past thousand years, only Cyprus, the sword saint of fallen leaves 300 years ago, has regained its former glory.

The adjective "possible" is too much for the Beifeng family, and it tastes like chewing wax.This time the Beifeng family was not so much a rebellion, but strictly speaking, it was just an internal disagreement.For the purpose of protecting Diana, her true talent was kept strictly secret, and Michelo couldn't explain it clearly to his clansmen.The clansmen on the rebellious side regarded the behavior of the patriarch as "ignorance of the general situation". In their view, no matter how outstanding Diana's talent was, she would never be able to become a sword master, so she should do her best for the clan. due obligations.Being able to become a queen is the greatest honor and the greatest value embodiment in the eyes of most people.

No one has ever imagined, what if Diana really has the qualifications to become a Juggernaut?
The battle between Diana and the puppeteer lasted less than 10 minutes, but it attracted the attention of all interested people.She used her own sword to bring a brand-new answer—under unfavorable conditions, she could still lose to the old gold powerhouse of the Oakland Kingdom.Anyone with a discerning eye can see it.With the talent and strength she has shown, even if she fails to reach the position of Sword Master in the end, stepping into the gold rank is a sure thing.

A predictable, future gold-ranked powerhouse, and a silver-ranked peak person who cannot touch the door for the rest of his life, the value of the two is completely different.

The Beifeng family would not be ignorant of what this meant, but they were all mortals after all, so they might not be able to respond in time.If the puppeteer can control Diana immediately after the battle, with his status as a gold-ranked strongman, he can forcefully conclude this deal, even if the Beifeng family feels that they are losing money, they can only knock out their teeth swallow.

But now, during the short few minutes of his delay, Simaco had fled into the noble city, which meant that Diana had returned to the hands of the Northwind family.When he was unable to make a move due to various concerns, the weight of the transaction quietly changed hands.

No one knows how much a gold rank powerhouse is worth, and no one dares to use a gold rank powerhouse as a bargaining chip.In other words, the deal will drag on indefinitely, or even die.

3 minutes is actually not important to the hunter and the hunted.The 3 minutes that the girl had to delay was to leave a gap for the Beifeng family.Her strategy is not complicated, but she thinks deeper than the puppeteer.

It's not that the puppeteer didn't understand the tricks, but he stood too high, so naturally he wouldn't notice the changes under his feet.He thought he could control the situation with his strength, but Tiana caught his blind spot accurately.After he sorted out all the causes and consequences in his heart, his heart suddenly became cold.

No, this little girl's plan is not clever, there must be a way to save the situation!When the puppeteer realized his mistake, he still kept a sneer on his face, but he was thinking quickly about countermeasures in his heart.He wasn't really stupid, and almost immediately grasped the key to turning things around.

With a thought in his mind, the puppeteer's powerful perception swept towards Simako's escape direction like quicksilver, and he saw that the young man was running desperately, without slowing down at all.And in the aristocratic city ahead, in the hidden aristocratic mansion, a group of fat-headed aristocrats had just reached a consensus. The old man at the head stood up, tidied his clothes slowly, and cleared his throat.

This is the real reason why Tiana fought for 3 minutes even if she was in danger alone. If it was changed to Istaron, any general would react decisively after judging the situation correctly.But for these aristocrats, the word "decision on the fly" seems vulgar. Even if they are impatient, they have to put on a slow look, and they call it the demeanor of aristocrats.

The old man must not be allowed to speak until Diana is captured!This is the key to breaking the game that the puppeteer found, and this is the so-called unwritten law in the aristocratic circle.Even if you know that he played with your wife, you must pretend to be ignorant and greet each other without getting stolen goods on the spot.

The puppeteer subconsciously held the young girl's body, intending to throw her directly at the old man's face as a human cannonball, even if he was crushed to death, he could pass the responsibility to this strange outsider. If he cannot be resurrected, no one will care about him.But when he raised his hand, he found something wrong with the feel of his hand. Looking back, the girl hanging on his fingertips disappeared without a sound.

space move?Certainly not possible!Not to mention that in order to prevent her from playing tricks, the puppeteer has already confined the space in his hand.Even if she really has that kind of ability against the sky, the magic fluctuations produced by releasing the magic are enough to alert the puppeteer.But at such a moment when he was distracted, this woman disappeared in his hands inexplicably.

Is it still an illusion?The puppeteers all felt that this assumption was too ridiculous. Even if their brain blood supply was insufficient and their thinking speed was a bit slow, they were not so stupid as to be unable to distinguish between the phantom and the deity.

His mind became more and more dizzy, and the dizziness caused by excessive use of brain power made the puppeteer almost lose his vigilance. When he realized the danger signal aimed at himself, his first reaction was to look in the direction of Diana.

A long arrow, or something similar to a long arrow, appeared out of nowhere less than three meters behind the puppeteer, aiming at the back of his head.The arrow passed through the void directly, leaving almost no reaction time for the puppeteer, only the weak fluctuations produced by the teleportation in the void made the puppeteer tremble subconsciously.

The long arrow pierced through the back of the puppeteer's head. Whether it was the defense of the steel giant or the strong enough body of the gold rank powerhouse, it seemed that they had no protection against the arrow.

The expression on the puppeteer's face froze for a moment, and then, the right half of his face burst open soundlessly, and the splashed flesh and blood shattered into bits and pieces, floating in mid-air like fallen leaves.
