Andrew looked at Philier, then at the Grand Duke, and then snorted coldly: "The Grand Duke is dead. It was you who poisoned the Grand Duke. You all have seen it. The Grand Duke left a will before his death. The title was passed to the second son Leonard. From today on, Leonard is the Grand Duke. Moreover, the Grand Duke died of poisoning after drinking tea from the Merchant Alliance. It was obviously Philiel who conspired with the Merchant Alliance to kill the Grand Duke. Gather people immediately to come and bear witness.”

Immediately, a guard responded and went to deliver the order. As soon as Philier saw this, how could he still not understand? He couldn't help but look at Andrew with blood-red eyes and said: "Andrew, do you dare to betray the Grand Duke? The Grand Duke was then There is clearly an order left for the two of us to pass the title of Grand Duke to the Grand Master Amber. How dare you do this? And now our Swordfish Territory is confronting the Mother Goddess Church. If you offend the Merchant Alliance at this time, you are Don’t you want to live anymore?”

Andrew looked at Philiel, then glanced around, and then laughed loudly and said: "Philiel, you are really too naive. The radiance of the Mother Goddess is everywhere, how can it be resisted by a Grand Duke of Swordfish? Yes, as long as the Second Young Master becomes the Grand Duke, we can immediately reach cooperation with the Mother Goddess Church. By then, we will not only be able to completely control Haizhou City, but also drive the Merchant Alliance out of the Swordfish Territory. How great is this? It's a matter of course, but you will suffer some injustice. I can't let you die now, I want you to stand trial, and it will be a public trial, how about it?"

Philier was furious and prepared to resist. He was a rune swordsman, but he soon discovered that the power in his body could not be used. The power in his body seemed to be completely imprisoned by a force. This Philier couldn't help being surprised. He looked at Andrew and said, "You used poison?"

Andrew looked at Philier, then laughed and said: "Yes, I use poison, the will of God that the Mother Goddess Church uses specifically to deal with those pagans, how about it? You should feel very honored, right? ?" Andrew looked at Philiel with a proud smile on his face.

Philiel looked at Andrew and said, "Why? What benefits does this do to you?" Philiel really couldn't understand why Andrew would do this and what benefits it would have to him. In his opinion, Andrew There doesn't seem to be any benefit to doing this. If the Mother Goddess Church takes over the Swordfish Territory, Andrew will only be able to be a puppet, right?

Andrew looked at Philier and suddenly sneered: "The brilliance of the Mother Goddess is everywhere, how can you understand it? I have been ordered to lurk beside the Grand Duke. After so many years, I finally waited for this day. As long as Leonard can become the Grand Duke, I can become the commander-in-chief of the army here in the Swordfish Territory, and at the same time, I can also become the leader of the Knights of the Swordfish Territory Temple of the Mother Goddess Church. Hahahaha, by then, the glory of the Mother Goddess will be It will illuminate the entire Swordfish Territory."

Leonard, standing behind Andrew, didn't say a word from beginning to end, and he didn't have any expression on his face, as if he was a sculpture. Philier looked at Andrew and said in a deep voice: "So you are from the Mother Goddess Church. Master Leonard, are you really willing to hand over the entire Swordfish Territory to the Mother Goddess Church? This has been in the family for several generations. It was earned with my life.”

"Hahaha, don't waste your efforts. You still don't know, right? Master Leonard is not the grand duke's child at all. The first lady didn't die of illness, but died of poisoning. And Leonard is basically me. When the time comes, he can become the Grand Duke. When I die, he can take over my position and then control the entire Swordfish Territory. Everything here will become ours, although we need to listen to the Mother Goddess Church. , But what does that matter? It’s not up to us to lead the Swordfish here." Andrew laughed.

When Philier heard what Andrew said, he couldn't help being surprised. He had been a steward under Grand Duke Swordfish all his life, and even his family had always worked for the Watt family where Grand Duke Swordfish belonged, so he was very concerned about the Watt family. I know very well about the matter. The current Grand Duke Swordfish has three wives. The eldest wife was the first wife that Grand Duke Swordfish married. However, she died of illness not long after giving birth to the eldest son Amber. Then the Grand Duke married the second wife. She gave birth to two sons and a daughter to the Grand Duke, namely the second son Leonard and the third son Lild, as well as the fourth daughter Laura, who also died of illness later. The third wife was the wife of the Grand Duke just a few years ago. The Grand Duke gave birth to a son, the fifth son, Kwhite.

Now when I heard what Andrew said, the eldest lady was actually killed by him, and the children of the second lady were probably all his, and Leonard obviously knew about this. From this point of view, Andrew had already made arrangements by the Grand Duke's side, which he never expected.

Philier looked at Andrew and said in a deep voice: "I really didn't expect that the Mother Goddess Church would arrange so many things. Sure enough, the people from the Mother Goddess Church have always wanted to control the entire steel world. Don't be proud of it, Andrew, just forget it. So what if you catch me? Aren’t you going to put me on trial? I will tell everyone about your crime by then. Unless you kill me now, otherwise, I will definitely tell everyone about your crime. ."

Andrew looked at Philier, laughed loudly and said: "Feilier, don't be so harsh. I believe you won't say anything by then. You won't. Come, take him down, and take the eldest son and the third son down at the same time." Madam, they are all locked up. Don't let them out. You can't kill them yet. If you kill them, it will definitely arouse others' suspicion." Immediately, a guard responded and took Philier down. There was no more The powerful Philiel had no ability to resist in the hands of those guards.

Andrew also took a look at the Grand Duke's body at this time, and then said loudly: "Contain the Grand Duke's body properly, and then announce the cause of the Grand Duke's death to the public. We will hold a huge funeral for the Grand Duke." There will be guards immediately. They responded, then stepped forward and carefully started to pick up the Grand Duke's body. They carried the Grand Duke's body out. The coffin had been prepared outside. They directly put the Grand Duke's body into the coffin, and then everyone All exited the room.

An explosive news spread in the Swordfish Territory. Grand Duke Swordfish died. He was killed by Grand Duke Swordfish’s steward and the merchant alliance. Before that, Grand Duke Swordfish’s steward and the merchant alliance teamed up to threaten him. The Grand Duke wanted to take action against the Mother Goddess Church in order to allow the Merchant Alliance to control Haizhou City. What the Grand Duke said before was not what the Grand Duke meant. It was said by the steward and published in the name of the Grand Duke. Later, the Grand Duke had a fierce argument. The housekeeper and the merchant alliance had no choice but to poison the Grand Duke to death.

However, just when the butler took action, he was discovered by the inner butler Andrew. Andrew restrained the butler, but the Grand Duke still died. However, the Grand Duke left a will before the interim, passing the position of the Grand Duke to the second son Leonard. , Andrew respected the Grand Duke’s last wish and supported the second young master to become the Grand Duke. The generals under the Grand Duke must come to the castle to swear allegiance to Grand Duke Leonard in three days. At the same time, on this day, they will also publicly try Philier. Let Philier reveal his crime.

This news is so explosive. Not only the people in the Swordfish Territory are all confused, but also the people in other collars. Why did the development of the matter suddenly take a 180-degree turn? Before The Grand Duke of Swordfish was still fighting against the Mother Goddess Church. Why did the Grand Duke of Swordfish suddenly die, and everything was done by the Merchant Alliance? What the hell is going on?

No matter what other people were like, the Jianyu Leader here was still doing their own thing. The body of Grand Duke Jianyu was put into the coffin, and after the public trial of Philier, it was buried. At the same time, the generals of the Jianyu Leader, They must also swear allegiance to the new Grand Duke within three days, otherwise it will be regarded as rebellion.

The entire Jianyu leader was in a state of panic, but strangely, those who had been protesting suddenly disappeared. Instead, Haizhou City was immediately closed down, and the Merchant Alliance issued a statement to the outside world. , saying that they had never posed any threat to the Grand Duke of Swordfish, and that the Grand Duke of Swordfish did not pass the title of Grand Duke to Leonard, but exclusively to Amber. Andrew and Leonard were controlled by the Mother Goddess Church. .

But then Leonard issued a statement saying that they were not controlled by anyone and that everything they said was true. The Merchant Alliance was bent on controlling the Swordfish Territory, which was why the Swordfish Archduke was killed. He ordered the Merchant Alliance to immediately Open Haizhou City, otherwise, after he buries his father, he will attack Haizhou City immediately.

The merchant alliance made a statement at one time. They did not recognize Leonard's rule. They asked to see the eldest son Amber and the steward Philier. However, the statements issued by the Merchant Alliance at this time already seemed a bit weak. After all, Leonard was the son of the Grand Duke, and he was now the Grand Duke.

And this change has also made the entire steel world focus on the Swordfish Leader. Now everyone is watching to see how things will develop. Is it the Merchant Alliance who is retreating, or is it the Archduke Leonard? The army was repulsed by the merchant alliance. At the same time, everything here in Jianyu Leader was shrouded in mystery. Everyone wanted to know what happened here in Jianyu Leader, so no one said anything and everyone was waiting for the development of the matter.

At this time, Carl and others gathered at the guild hall. The expressions on their faces were very solemn. After a while, Wood finally said: "I really didn't expect that the Grand Duke died in the end, and He actually died in the hands of the person he trusted most, that Andrew, who had always been the Grand Duke’s confidant, but he never thought that he would betray the Grand Duke.”

No one knows what is happening here in the Swordfish Territory better than them. They have been cooperating very well with Grand Duke Swordfish before, and both parties have even reached an agreement. Now suddenly Duke Swordfish is dead and the housekeeper is captured. Leonard put all the blame on them, and also said that they killed the Archduke, but they knew very well that they did not do it, which means that Leonard and Andrew did it. Yes, but no one believes them when they say it now. After all, Leonard is the son of the Grand Duke, and what he says still carries a lot of weight, so they seem very passive now.
