They slaughtered our citizens, annihilated our royal family! The entire Mont is filled with war machines! If you don’t believe me, I can take you to see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mont Crown Prince was extremely agitated as he quickly dashed to a nearby road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no vehicles on the road, but there were slowly passing riders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, you over there!\" The Mont Crown Prince roared angrily: \"I am human, you are not human, come and kill me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rider took a glance at him, remained unresponsive, and continued moving forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop!
