Chapter 714 Abnormality
Arriving at the grass behind the palace, Luka nodded to a strong guard beside him, allowing him to move.
After getting Augustus's promise, the guard plucked up his courage. He gritted his teeth, picked up a rope tied with a stone, and threw it towards the window several meters high in front of him.
“Bang!”
With a crisp sound, a big hole was smashed in the glass window of Likinia's bedroom. The guard pulled the rope and pulled hard. When he felt that it could hold up, he nodded to Luca.
Luca had no time to hesitate, he immediately went over and took the rope.
"Caesar, let the soldiers come first!"
Jovian behind him was calling out hurriedly, but Luca had no time to listen. He just held the rope tightly with both hands and climbed up with difficulty.
His action scared the courtiers and guards below. They all ran over and squeezed under Luga, trying to form a cushion with their bodies, fearing that anything might go wrong and hurt Luga.
Luga held the rope tightly with both hands and clenched his teeth. With every step he took, he could feel his strength rapidly draining away.
After a great deal of effort, he finally stretched out his hand to the window frame, then used his forearms to support himself.
After climbing over the window smashed by stones, Luca finally came to the room and saw Likinia sitting on the bed with Leo, who was still crying, in her arms. Now she was alone and didn't know what she was in a daze.
The door was tightly locked, and there were many tables and chairs piled there. No wonder it couldn't be opened from the outside.
Luca did not hesitate and ran to Liginia in three or two steps. He saw Liginia hugging little Leo tightly, her hair was messy and her eyes were staring blankly at her exposed feet.
Little Leo was confused and kept sucking hard, but she had no milk left. Little Leo couldn't bear the hunger and cried loudly while sucking.
"Likinia, what are you doing!"
In response to Luca's question, Likinia just maintained her current state and ignored it.
Is she blaming herself? This seemingly heartless woman is actually sad because of the unprovoked death of others.
"It's all over, Likinia." Luca didn't know how to comfort the woman in front of him whose emotions were unpredictable. He stretched out his hands, slowly repeating one upward and one downward, trying to comfort Likinia.
But this had no practical significance. Liginia still kept her head down and did not respond to John's words. She was probably still immersed in the scene for a long time, because witnessing the public execution of John Anthony, whom she relied on very much, brought her an unimaginable blow.
Little Leo was still crying loudly and couldn't stop. This constant crying not only annoyed Luca, but it was also harmful to the young baby.
"Give the child to me quickly, he's so hungry!" Luga stepped forward and reached out to take the child from Likinia.
"Go away!"
When Luga was about to reach out and touch little Leo, suddenly, Likinia flashed over and yelled at Luga!
Likinia's sudden outburst of anger really startled Luga. He quickly took two steps back, staring at Likinia with wide eyes in confusion.
"I beg you, please don't harm your child anymore!" Likinia turned her head away, and at this time only a few tears were seen flowing down the corners of her eyes and dripping onto the silk skirt under her face.
"The child needs milk, he is very hungry now!" Luga didn't know what to say. He was speechless for a while, and then he made up an excuse. I'm afraid this is just an excuse.
"No! I refuse!" Likinia turned her back to Luga and hugged little Leo in her arms even tighter.
"You are a butcher, a butcher who cannot distinguish between good and evil." Likinia put aside her only respect for Luca and began to curse him. "Enough, you damn butcher, you will take my child away, and then use the evil you have accumulated over the years. You are an absolute murderous demon! You will not even let your own offspring go."
"Likinia, I won't allow you to talk nonsense like that!"
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Likinia turned her head and glanced at Luga with contempt in her eyes.
"Look what you have done. You have caused your supporters to bleed, but your enemies are hiding safely in the shadows, watching your stupid actions, cheering and laughing at your incompetence!" Li Jinia's lips were trembling.
Luca wanted to explain and defend himself, but at this time he was surprised to find that he had no excuse at all. He could only choose to remain silent about Likinia now.
"Okay, I admit it!" Luca crossed his arms and said slowly, "I am responsible for the death of John Antiochus, of course..."

"Enough! Enough!" Likinia stretched out her hand to stop Luca from saying the next words, "I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear any explanation from you at all. You have nothing to recommend you except for making excuses for your cowardice."
“You don’t understand!”
"I don't understand, ha!" Liginia sneered, and this smile was more like a sigh, "I just don't understand, I just don't understand how you could bear to watch the subjects who supported you so much being beheaded in such a public place, and you could sit in your seat peacefully, without any guilt at all! Look, look at your dirty hands, you killed such a kind person, it was you who tarnished his reputation with a few casual words, discredited your comrades, and then watched your enemies insult you unscrupulously. I have seen your end, you cowardly, powerless Valentinian!"
"What are you talking about?"
Luca couldn't stand Liginia's repeated insults. She burst into tears and cried bitterly while holding her child. Seeing his mother crying, the ignorant little Leo continued to cry with a hoarse voice. What a little traitor, he was actually in the same mind with his mother! Seeing his wife and child crying, the anger burning in Luca's heart gradually subsided. He stroked his forehead, because the anger just now made him a little dizzy.
"What did I do wrong?" Luga asked himself. His heart was pounding so hard that it was about to jump out of his throat. The crying sounds of Likinia and little Leo forced their way into his ears, leaving Luga with no room to resist.
His head began to hurt again. The pain rushed straight to his forehead, and he was caught off guard and unable to control his body. Luga hurriedly grabbed the bed frame while staggering.
Li Jinia didn't notice this. She was crying while feeding little Leo, murmuring, "Strange, why is there no milk? It's really strange."
"Please forgive me, Likinia, I had no choice." Luga endured the pain and apologized to Likinia weakly in a low voice.
But Likinia didn't intend to pay attention to Luca. She fed little Leo by herself and coaxed him, saying, "My baby, you are my only one, you are my only one!"
This was also the last sentence Luca heard before he fell into a coma.
