Hobert tensed up, judging from the current situation, a fallout could happen at any moment.
On their side, there were only two Sequence 5s and one Sequence 6, while Camilla seemed to be Sequence 4, and the other four should all be Sequence 5.
They couldn't win in a fight, but with Christian and Dophis's strength, they should be able to escape.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, completely unexpected that Christian and Dophis were planning to betray the Loen Kingdom.
As a transmigrator, Hobert had no feelings for the Loen Kingdom, and instead found it quite exciting.
Camilla shook her head with a sneer: "Christian, you still don't understand, some things are not yours to have just because you want them. The gap in Sequence can never be compensated for by hard work."
"You're the one who doesn't understand the situation!" Christian stroked the ring on her ring finger: "When we were in the Southern Continent, you only had Rex in your eyes, but you ignored the abilities and wisdom of others.
"I guess you may not have noticed that my name always appears at the same time as Rex.
"And Dix and Ulysses, so many people are so dazzling."
He said with interest: "You wouldn't think I wouldn't have any preparations for a situation like today, would you?"
Camilla seemed to understand something when she saw the ring: "Impossible!"
Christian slowly took off the ring with a smile, and suddenly the pressure on his body was as suffocating as Camilla's.
Bruno looked surprised: "You, when did you..."
When did you advance to become a demigod?
Christian sneered: "I suspected there was something wrong with you a long time ago. At first, I thought you were a spy for the Feynapotter Kingdom, but later I realized that you were already a lackey of the royal family!"
Bruno took a step back in surprise. At this time, he still couldn't believe that his good friend and colleague, who he had been with day and night, had quietly become a demigod.
Hobert recalled that Christian had been touching this ring more frequently recently. The last time they entered the oil painting together, Christian was always touching the ring.
It seemed that he had been unable to hold back for a long time.
At this time, Camilla calmed down: "We can discuss it again, as long as you don't leave Loen, you can be awarded the rank of Lieutenant General tomorrow, and even Major General! Believe me, even giving you the corresponding title is not a problem!"
Originally, the five people sent by the military could definitely control Christian, after all, in their concept, Christian was only Sequence 5.
A demigod suppresses Christian, two Sequence 5s deal with Dophis, and two Sequence 5s serve as a "reserve team".
But the current situation completely exceeded control, Christian was also a demigod!
"It's too late!" Christian said: "What were those fools in the royal family doing long ago?"
Hobert smiled, if the royal family couldn't immediately dispatch angels, then there would be no problem escaping from Backlund.
Christian should also be aware of this problem, he stood up and said: "If we can part peacefully, we are still good comrades, if you insist on fighting, then I'm sorry."
After speaking, Christian turned around and walked out.
Hobert took the first step, and he felt relieved only after he held the cane in his hand.
"Wait!" Camilla said: "You can state your conditions."
Now the nature of the matter has changed, any force will try its best to win over a demigod-level figure.
But Christian continued to walk out as if he hadn't heard.
Camilla had no choice but to say: "Do it!"
Christian was prepared, and turned around and said to the Brigadier General named Abel: "Exile!"
Abel's body quickly faded. "Exile" is an enhanced version of "Banishment", which can throw the target into the void and exile them outside the real world.
Whether he can come back and when he will come back all depends on luck.
Camilla stretched out her hand: "Exile is forbidden here!"
Abel's figure became solid again.
This is how the battle between the "Judges" pathways is, always a lose-lose situation, so Camilla can't use "Exile" and "Banishment" either.
As soon as the battle started, Hobert immediately grabbed in the direction of Bruno, and this time he was lucky enough to steal the opponent's "Prohibition" ability.
Hobert immediately said: "Breathing is prohibited here!"
Everyone was stunned. Of the seven people in the room, four of them often used the "Prohibition" ability, and it was the first time they had heard of "Prohibiting Breathing"!
While speaking, several Sequence 5s on the other side chased over, and their skills such as "Whipping" and "Imprisonment" all smashed towards Hobert.
The reason is very simple, these abilities of theirs have little effect on Christian, but they must be very effective on Hobert!
At the same time, the Brigadier General named Chipman threw a vase towards Hobert to complete the bribery process.
Who knew that Hobert didn't dodge or avoid at all, "Imprisonment" did imprison Hobert, and there seemed to be a layer of transparent shield around him, making him only able to stand in place and unable to move freely.
But "Whipping" seemed to have no effect, the illusory whip opened Hobert's clothes, but failed to hurt his skin at all.
"Weaken!" Chipman's "Bribery" was completed, and he immediately used the signature skill of the "Black Emperor" pathway.
On the other side, Christian and Camilla were already fighting together. The Beyonders of the "Judge" pathway are known for their strong physique and skill in fighting.
When Beyonder abilities can't help the opponent, they usually choose close combat.
However, Christian quickly gained the upper hand. In addition to fighting Camilla, he could also attack Chipman: "Deprive!"
Just as Chipman's "Weaken" was about to take effect, a layer of illusory black barrier suddenly appeared around Hobert, which actually blocked Chipman's "Weaken" effect! At the same time, the previous "Imprisonment" effect also disappeared!
And Christian's "Deprive" really deprived Chipman of his ability to "Distort", at least three minutes later he could use this ability again.
After a round of intensive confrontation, except for Benedict who was always ready to support Camilla, the other three Sequence 5s had rushed to Hobert's front.
At this time, they found that their attacks had not had any negative effects on Hobert!
On their way here, Hobert was completely not within their plan, they even thought that the guards outside the villa could deal with Hobert.
As "Disciplinary Paladins", as "Imperative Mages", their Beyonder abilities include distinguishing whether the person being judged is lying, and distinguishing whether the enemy is strong or weak.
Hobert obviously looks so weak, but why isn't he being completely played by them as they imagined?
Since they can't tell the difference in Beyonder abilities, they have to carry out "physical attacks".
Hobert had already pulled out his knife in advance, and kicked a pot of flowers towards the three enemies: "Weaken!"
The three Sequence 5s felt different degrees of weakening: Are you still reasonable? Why don't our abilities work? His abilities work so well?
Although they were "weakened", the strength of Sequence 5 is here, Abel, who was rushing in the front, dodged the blade that Hobert slashed out, and kicked him away.
Abel was stunned for a moment, he seemed to have kicked a piece of steel.
Looking at Hobert again, he hit the wall hard, making a muffled sound, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the wall.
But Hobert got up and patted the dust off his body as if nothing had happened.
