Arnold couldn't help frowning. Although his subordinate was not likable, he had to admit that his strength was first-class, and it was rare for him to be as unstable as before.Although it was only for a moment, he still noticed something, there was a very familiar breath on Alfred's body.

Arnold's gaze scanned Qi Tan's body, and finally landed on one of the other's tentacles with uncertainty.

Qi Tan's body was stiff in place, and he didn't dare to move. The King's eyes were fixed on the tentacle where the scale was hidden. The breath fluctuation just now must have leaked the existence of the scale.

If it wasn't for the mana riot yesterday, his aura wouldn't be so unstable.

"What is hidden in your tentacles?" Arnold stood up from behind the desk, and slowly walked towards Qi Tan, who looked a little petite in front of the huge body of the octopus, but with a breathless air. air pressure.

Seeing that Qi Tan didn't say a word, Arnold sneered, and a sharp long knife appeared in his hand, aiming at the tentacle, "Don't you say it? Well, you don't need to say it."

After finishing speaking, the long knife fell down quickly, and the sharp blade seemed to cut the passing sea water in half, making one's scalp numb.

Seeing that the long knife was about to cut off the stiff tentacle, Qi Tan moved suddenly, retracting the tentacle a little, avoiding Arnold's long knife.

There was a hint of surprise on Arnold's face, but he looked at Qi Tan even more severely.

Although he doesn't like Alfred, no, it should be said that he has always hated this sea monster, but he has to admit that as a subordinate, Alfred is rarely obedient and has never disobeyed his orders.

This is the first time.

If it was before, Qi Tan would never dodge this knife, the tentacles will be gone when they are gone, and they will grow back after a while.But it doesn't work now, his regenerative nucleus has already been attached to the king, if this tentacle is broken, it will never grow back.

The strength of an octopus with a broken tentacle will be greatly reduced. Qi Tan does not allow such a situation to happen to himself, and it will weaken the protection around the king.

Qi Tan carefully glanced at the frosty Arnold, as if he had made up his mind, he exposed the dark green scales hidden in the tentacles.

Arnold's face turned cold, and his sharp gaze was like a sharp dagger, wantonly cutting Qi Tan's flesh.

"Where did you get this scale?"

There was no warmth in Arnold's voice, Qi Tan couldn't help shivering, the sorrow and pain in his heart almost overflowed.

He never doubted at all that the sea monster in front of him was actually the boy who saved him.

Qi Tan closed his eyes, lowered his head and did not make a sound.

"The temper has hardened a lot." Arnold pressed the back of the knife to Qi Tan's face, stared at his closed eyes, and his tone was full of sarcasm, "Ah, no, this king was wrong. It should be said, you finally You showed your true colors in front of this king, right?"

No, it's not like that!

The knife in Arnold's hand seemed not to be attached to Qi Tan's face, but to his heart, and the cold temperature reached directly to the bottom of his heart.

"Tell me, who did you get this scale from, and where is that person now?" Arnold turned the long knife over, and the sharp blade slowly drifted beside Qi Tan's big face, from time to time When it touched his skin, it left small bloodstains, which were not conspicuous on the black skin covered with red lines.

Qi Tan's eyelids trembled, but still did not open, "This subordinate picked it up, it is very beautiful, and this subordinate likes its color."

The room fell into an eerie silence for a moment, and after a long time, Qi Tan heard the person in front of him muttering: "Did you find it?"

"I picked it up..." Arnold repeated again, and put down the long knife in his hand.

The cold temperature was far away from his skin, Qi Tan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking that the king had believed his words, but unexpectedly, the next second, a sharp pain would be uploaded from the tentacle holding the scale Come.

Arnold inserted the long knife into the tentacle in front of him, raised his palm slightly, and the dark green scales drifted into his palm automatically as if sensing something.

Qi Tan broke out in cold sweat from the pain, and his tentacles twitched uncontrollably. Apart from not being able to believe it, he only felt extremely lucky—the king didn't cut off his tentacles, it was just a knife wound, and it would grow after a while. Alright, it won't affect my ability to protect the king.

"You know, Alfred." Arnold looked at the scales in his hand, half-closed his green eyes, his tone was unprecedentedly gentle and gentle, but it made Qi Tan feel as if he was trapped in a piece of ice Among them, "You are not good at lying."

Apart from his own breath, there was only Alfred's breath on this scale, and no one else's.Arnold sneered in his heart. He always thought that Alfred was not stupid, but now it seems that he was thinking too much.

Do you think that if you wipe out other people's breath, you won't find out?Or, he just wanted to find out by himself, and then come to claim credit?

Simply stupid.

The king's voice got farther and farther away from him, Qi Tan couldn't help opening his eyes, watching the figure of the king slowly return to the back of the desk, then turned around, looked at himself fixedly, and said expressionlessly: "This king will give you one last chance, say it, or not?"

Qi Tan still didn't speak, he didn't know what he should say, the king didn't believe what he said just now, how could he make the king accept the truth of the matter without any resistance?

Should he find another boy with black hair and red eyes to replace himself in human form and make him the savior in the king's heart?

Isn't this a way, Qi Tan smiled self-deprecatingly in his heart.As for his human appearance, after he regains his human form, a simple disguise spell can cover up all the truth, and no one will know the truth at all.

Qi Tan's silence exhausted Arnold's last trace of patience. He beckoned and summoned the long knife still stuck in the tentacles to his side, and said solemnly: "You go."

Qi Tan was stunned, the king's words made him very puzzled, according to the king's character, he would never give up until he achieved his goal, why did he let him leave so quickly today, and even after he had made considerable after an act of resistance.

But Arnold's next sentence made Qi Tan instantly understand what he meant.

"From now on, the North Sea will no longer be open to you."
