The Scarred Queen's Rise (Athena) novel Chapter 755

Chapter 755

She suddenly turned around and said loudly to the people on the city tower. “He uses the lives of the people as a bargaining chip and uses false promises to lure us to open the gate. Once the city is broken, we will all become sacrifices to his ambition!”

“Kill him!” someone shouted, immediately igniting a thunderous roar.

Stones and broken arrows rained down on the city.

Ray’s personal guards immediately raised their shields to protect him. The woman in black frowned and shouted to Athena, “Stop! If you don’t stop. I’ll kill them.”

Long sabers were held to the necks of the people below the city.

The elderly and children cried.

Athena watched this scene, her heart aching.

Ray was actually using the lives of these innocent people to force her.

Suddenly, Athena noticed something unusual.

Although those people looked fearful, their eyes darted around, and their skin was darker than that of ordinary people.

“Something’s wrong.” Athena slowly shook her head, “They are not citizens of Petanion, they are Northcold people disguised.”

After seeing through Ray’s treacherous plan, Athena’s expression turned cold and hard. “Release the arrows.”

The fire arrows streaked across the sky like shooting stars, shooting towards Ray’s direction.

The bodyguards hurriedly raised their shields to block the stray arrows for him.

Under the barrage of arrows, Ray’s brows furrowed. “What’s going on?”

The woman in black lowered her eyes and said somewhat flusteredly, “Your Majesty, Athena must have seen through the identities of these commoners.”

Ray’s brows furrowed even deeper.

He glared at the woman in black coldly. “Is this the foolproof plan you were talking about?”

The woman in black lowered her head even further.

“Janice, I don’t keep idlers around me. If you are of no use, why would I keep you by my side?”

The woman in black was none other than Janice.

After the case was settled, she was driven out of Pidence City and wandered around.

Later, after hearing that Ray had become the King in Ramberg, she went to join him.

Janice shook her head anxiously, “I must have a way to make Arthur achieve his wish. Please don’t abandon

me.”

She thought for a moment, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she said, “Your Majesty, I have another plan that will surely make Athena willingly come out of the city.”

“The moat is the water source for the entire city.” Janice lowered her voice, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes. “If you cut off this water source, they will definitely not last half a month.

“Athena cares most about those people and definitely doesn’t want to see the whole city die of thirst.

“In order to save these people, she will willingly return to your side.

“At that time, you will be able to take Pidence City into his pocket without spending a single soldier.”

These words awakened Ray.

Ray suddenly looked up and looked at the moat that bypassed the city not far away.

The moat was the lifeblood of Petanion. If he cut off its water source…

He only thought about digging a channel to divert the water, but he never thought about directly blocking the source. Although this strategy was insidious, it was a hundred times more effective than a strong attack.

“What a desperate measure.” Ray’s brow gradually relaxed, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. “Janice, your strategy is very good, and I am very satisfied.”

Janice was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly knelt on the ground, her forehead heavily hitting the ground. “Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise. I am willing to do anything for you!”

She secretly raised her eyes and looked at Athena on the city tower, a surge of pride in her heart.

All her misfortunes were caused by Athena.

She thought, ‘Don’t people all say that Athena and Xander are loving?‘

Then she would break them up. Even if Xander died, she would not be able to stay by his side as his wife.

‘Athena, you owe me all of this,‘ she thought hatefully.
