Chapter 654 The Imprisoned Princess (5)

However, once she thought about the meaning and efficacy behind this face-changing technique, Qingzhou suddenly realized a problem that had been ignored by the original owner and even herself.

What did the original owner look like after he escaped from the manor?

Judging from the situation at that time and now, I am afraid that at that time, the face-changing technique had already been successfully performed.

The plain and clear way of saying this is——the original owner changed into the appearance of Cruz, and Cruz replaced the original owner, relying on that face to obtain the identity of the princess.

Then it all makes sense.

Why did Beard dare to imprison the princess without being afraid of being discovered by others.

The same goes for the escape of the original owner - Beard's abilities are not limited to what the original owner saw, so the manor must not be as simple as the original owner saw. How did she escape?Instead of running away, it's better to say that these people... let her out on purpose.

They didn't want her to live from the very beginning, and it was the most beneficial and trouble-free way for them to die outside.

The original owner, in their view, was just a "provider of the princess's face".
-
After figuring everything out, Qing Zhou's expression remained calm. Beard, who was waiting for Qing Zhou to question him, was suspicious of her calmness, but he was uneasy but forced himself to settle down, thinking about countermeasures.

At this moment, footsteps came from the corridor outside the door.

Someone came up.

The previous guards and guards below were all injured and knocked down by Qing Zhou without exception. They should not be able to move in a short time, and they are all wearing heavy armor, and the sound of walking will not be so light.

It seems that this is Beard's trump card.

The three people who appeared at the door were all wearing long black mage robes, their faces were completely covered by huge hoods, and their genders could not even be identified.

Seeing Beard in a miserable state and Qing Zhou sitting at the table who was equally messed up but indifferent and calm, the body of the leader mage under the hood was visibly startled.

"...Ernie."

This silence didn't last long, and after a while, a gloomy and hoarse voice came from under the hood.

Qing Zhou put down the teacup in his hand, turned his head to look, and said calmly: "This is a pseudonym."

"..."

The other side was choked, and he squinted his eyes in confusion, unable to figure out the way of Qing Zhou.

"Are you the ones who taught Beard magic? It doesn't look like a serious mage registered in the empire." The girl's blue eyes were like a sea, and her voice was as clear as her eyes.

She asked directly, as if she was still that ignorant princess.

But whether it was Beard who was still unable to move or the three mages, they instinctively felt a little defensive in their hearts.

— After knowing these things, she shouldn't have reacted like this.

"His Royal Highness..." the hoarse voice spoke again, "This is not something you should ask..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the girl opposite had raised her hand. The black robe was startled, and he quickly recited a mantra to defend himself, but it was still too late——

The scenery in his eyes receded quickly, and in just the blink of an eye, he was swallowed by the severe pain in his chest and abdomen, and his whole body was sent flying in the corridor outside.

Coincidentally, there happened to be a classical oil painting on top of his head. Because the wall was cracked and shaken, the painting, together with the heavy nanmu frame, fell down and hit the man in black hard on the head.

The man in black, who didn't even cry out in pain, just passed out.

The girl sitting in the room remained expressionless, and glanced at the other two men in black robes who hadn't recovered, and softly repeated the question just now:

"Are you teachers who teach Beard magic? Are you registered with the Empire?"
