The Origin of Arcane
Chapter 130: Unpredictable
If Grand Duke Borg is at his peak, the loyalty of the Grand Duke’s guard is unquestionable. Whether it is for themselves or for his own family, he must contribute his loyalty. To join the Duke’s guard, he must be a root. Many of the sons of the true nobles of the lord are the first heirs to the nobles of the lord. This is their obligation when they are young.
But now Grand Duke Borg is half-dead, and the entire Manyu army is in turmoil, it is hard to say.
The reason remains that, they are not only responsible for themselves, but also responsible for the family behind them.
Even Clifford, who was a general of the Grand Duke's guard, had to face the enormous pressure brought by his family, let alone other people.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Grand Duke Borg is hopeless, and the dispute over heirs has reached the most critical moment. They must choose to stand in line.
Whether it is on the side of Philip or Patlem, even if it is the least likely to choose Angie Bena, it is better than holding a half body into the ground.
In fact, it is the people who guard him that Duke Borg is the most anxious now.
But Clifford had to use them again, because he was no longer available.
Who instigated this assassination? Clifford knew well. When Patlem sent someone to invite him, he reacted. After following Archduke Borg for so many years, even Elm would be smoked. It's a bit of a taste, let alone his origin is not low, and his political sense is not bad.
Compared with Viscount Philip, even with the support of Angie Berna, Patlem’s disadvantages are very obvious. The easiest way to redeem this is to establish his own status first, and the half-dead Borg Grand Duke is the biggest obstacle.
During this period of time, they were guarded strictly, and at least two or more Grand Duke guards were guarding Duke Borg every step of the way.
Again, when something goes wrong inside, no matter how tightly guarded it is, it won't help.
"Sorry, my lord, the assassin is too cunning. He just deliberately lured us." The chief guard explained in a panic, but his eyes flickered, revealing his true thoughts.
"You...you have failed the trust that the Grand Duke placed in you."
Clifford angrily lit his surroundings with his sword.
"Now you are as you wish, the Grand Duke has returned to heaven! The Grand Duke was not killed by the assassin, but by you! Your souls, never want to escape the punishment of self-blame in this life."
"Master Clifford, where do you start this sentence? We are guarding your Majesty loyally." The captain of the Grand Duke's guard blushed and retorted.
People want faces, trees want bark.
Even if it is an open secret, this kind of thing can be covered in the box, just covered in the box, killing the unrecognizable, no one wants to carry this kind of pot.
"Haha...loyal, you guys are ashamed to say loyal...this is the biggest joke I've heard in my life...haha..."
The death of Grand Duke Borg was too stimulating to Clifford. The rain of arrows just made his heart completely cool. Looking around, the entire Castle of Faerun was the only one who wanted Duke Borg to live. , The rest of the people want him to die.
What kind of sorrow is it for people to live to this point?
Grand Duke Borg may have many flaws in his body, unknowingly offending countless people, but there is absolutely nothing to say to the soldiers who followed him, especially the guards around him. Over the years, the maids and waitresses executed for various names Countless, but none of the guards.
Others can betray Grand Duke Borg, even his biological children, but these guards cannot.
"Master Clifford, you come down first, we have something to say." Patlem had a sad expression on his face. "No one wants to see this kind of tragedy happen. The most important thing for us now is to capture the assassin."
"I can swear allegiance to you, but the assassin must die." Clifford suddenly said.
"What?" Patlem was taken aback, a surprise smile appeared on his face, but he immediately realized that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly drooped his eyes, but couldn't restrain the upward corners of his mouth, revealing his inner excitement.
This is a serious champion knight, the top champion knight.
For any lord, having champion knights and not having champion knight allegiance is a completely different concept.
Champion knights often have the power similar to nuclear bombs.
Their lethality is indeed not as strong as nuclear bombs, but in skirmishes, they have absolute deterrence. Once champion knights are used for assassination, unless they are guarded by a large-scale army, only champion knights can fight against them.
In front of Angie Bena, why Patlem always feels short when he speaks? In addition to the comparison of military strength, it is also because the opponent has a champion knight sitting in town.
It would be a lie to say that Patlem hadn't tried to win over Clifford.
Clifford is not only a champion knight, but also the head of the spy organization under Grand Duke Borg. If he is brought in, there will be a ready-made spy organization available.
But Clifford is famous for his loyalty to Grand Duke Borg, especially under his own guardianship. After Grand Duke Borg was seriously injured, he might be guilty, and he behaved more extreme.
Patlem didn't dare to show this meaning in front of him easily. If he ran into him and was cut with a sword, it would be a wrongdoing.
Unexpectedly, after a turn of events, Clifford would take the initiative to propose it, and Patlem couldn't believe his ears.
"The assassin must die!" Clifford repeated with gritted teeth.
Before his words fell, a guard suddenly rushed out of the castle.
Who is Conrad, who is mixed into the guards without the help of chaos and Patlem?
Obviously, he knew that Patlem could not refuse this temptation.
The so-called feelings and the so-called promises will be defeated in the face of interests.
Because Conrad couldn't refuse to face such temptation, it was almost inevitable that he would become an abandoned son to save others by himself.
He did a lot of calculations, but he didn't calculate that Clifford was so serious about revenge for Duke Borg.
"You are waiting!" Clifford laughed sorrowfully. "Those who dare to stop me, die!"
"Catch the assassin! Catch the assassin! Life or death! Life or death!" Pat Lem jumped and said loudly.
The situation suddenly reversed one hundred and eighty degrees, and Conrad went from being protected by everyone to a rat crossing the street.
Not to mention that Conrad is just a great knight-level manipulation warlock, even if it is replaced by a champion knight-level control warlock like Darnell, the possibility of getting out of it is very slim.
Before Clifford could catch up with him, the rain of arrows shot Conrad into a hedgehog. In front of the indiscriminate coverage shooting, Conrad's dark shield and magical power exploded, completely useless.
Conrad turned to look at Patlem, spraying blood, and said bitterly: "Today I am tomorrow's you. You will pay for your promises, and the Seven Apostles will not let you go! "
Pat Lem hadn't considered the threat to Conrad at all, the last curse of a dead man before his death!
If this kind of curse were really useful, they wouldn't have so much trouble. Grand Duke Borg had been cursed to death thousands of times.
But the last sentence, like an invisible sharp blade, slashed in Patlem's heart fiercely, and rushed to Conrad in a hurry, dragging him to shake again and again, and said with a panic expression: "Seven apostles? Which seven apostles? Are you a member of the Seven Apostles?"
"Cough cough..." Conrad vomited a mouthful of blood, breathless, a hint of revenge on his spiteful and twisted face, "There are... how many Seven Apostles in this world? And... who dares to claim... The Seven Apostles? Hahaha..."
In a long laugh, Conrad exhaled one last breath.
How many seven apostles are there in the world?
How many in the world dare to be called the Seven Apostles?
Yes, no one would call themselves the Seven Apostles except those lunatics.
In the continent of Ashan, the Seven Apostles have become synonymous with lunatics, because this name represents countless heart-breaking events, many of which are far-reaching.
Patlem felt that he was struck by lightning. He knew that Conrad's purpose in approaching him was impure. He didn't know it before, but he knew it when he gradually gained power.
But even after he killed him, Conrad turned out to be a member of the lunatic concentration camp.
An uncontrollable cold filled his body.
It's not just because of the possibility of getting revenge from the seven apostles.
It's also because the other party has been silently lurking by your side for so long. If the other party wants to be disadvantageous to you?
"Are you the true seven apostles? Or are you false seven apostles? What is your purpose of lurking by my side?"
Patlem shook Conrad out of control and asked again and again with his last hope.
I hope Conrad said so deliberately just to avenge him.
But carefully recalling Conrad's various past behaviors-unscrupulous for rights, status as a warlock, and status without roots and roots, only ten years old can be found, and before that, there is nothing.
This coincides with the style of the Seven Apostles who like to train orphans of warlocks as assassin killers.
Nothing can withstand suspicion, and many things that were originally unrelated will become paradoxical after such a deep contemplation, as if they are connected.
Responding to Patlem was just a stiff, weird smiling face, as if mocking him, let him go suspicious.
"Master Clifford, you heard that just now, this guy is the spy of the Seven Apostles, the assassin of the Seven Apostles, everything is a conspiracy of the Seven Apostles, yes, the mountain riots, the slave rebellion, and the assassination of your majesty are all seven. The conspiracy of the apostles, they want to plot the military leader of Manyu, yes, it must be like this, Master Clifford, you have to testify for me, I am just blinded by evil, you can protect me."
Patlem danced at Clifford.
Whether Clifford believes it or not, he believes it himself anyway, feeling that he has exposed a terrifying conspiracy. The death of Grand Duke Borg has nothing to do with him. It was entirely Conrad's plan and he was just a deceived victim.
"Master Patlem, please rest assured, these lunatics who are scourge of the people, in order to create panic and seek rights, do whatever they want. Not only you are deceived, but we are deceived. Our leader of the Manyu army is incompatible with the Seven Apostles. These lunatics Although he is crazy, his whereabouts are secret, well-planned, and organized operations. There are bound to be people who cooperate with him in the city of Solo, and they have their dens. We must pursue the whole city and completely eradicate these lunatics."
Clifford paid a salute of allegiance to Patlem, with a serious face.
Conrad's self-reported identity certainly left a shadow on Patlem's heart, but it also gave everyone a step down.
All sins can be pushed onto the seven apostles without burden, regardless of whether Conrad’s identity is true or false.
Because the name of the seven apostles is bad enough, especially in the eyes of the lord and nobles, it is not an exaggeration for these lunatics to do crazy things. Anyway, the kings and princes who died in their hands are not one or two, those great lords and nobles. The reason why he attaches so much importance to his own safety is because of the endless assassination methods of the seven apostles.
Even if Conrad's identity is false, the Seven Apostles will not jump out to deny it, but will gladly accept it and use it to increase their reputation.
Of course, even if they deny it, no one will buy their account. Who makes their reputation so bad!
Clifford was loyal to Grand Duke Borg, as long as the opponent was alive.
He has not been loyal enough to take his own life and family for a dead person.
The assassin he had mentioned before must die, and he was already looking for a step for himself. Since Conrad leans on the seven apostles, it is best.
Otherwise, they would think about a hood on him afterwards.
Patlem may not be the best choice, but this is the only way in front of Clifford.
"Good! Good! Good!" Patlem nodded again and again, "Now that the army is in chaos, Lord Clifford still needs to bother and bother."
The two sides reached an agreement, and the rest was simple. Not only did they unify the caliber, but they also made the scene look like they were.
That night, the news that Archduke Borg was assassinated and killed by the Seven Apostles assassins spread to all the territories of the Manyu Army and all the leaders of the Byron Alliance.
At the same time, the Faerun family's soldiers conducted a large-scale raid on Solo City and arrested the madmen of the Seven Apostles.
All of a sudden, hundreds of people were arrested in the troubled city of Solo.
Of course, most people soon proved to be innocent, and only a small group of people had doubts about them. It was not that they were confirmed to be the Seven Apostles, but that they were criminals who committed crimes, and some were even fugitives.
After all, the Seven Apostles would not have carved these three words on their face. If Conrad had not called out before his death, who would have contacted the Seven Apostles?
Up to now, I don't know the true or false identity of his seven apostles, let alone arresting his accomplices.
What's more, Patlem knew well that he and Conrad planned the assassination of Archduke Borg. Where can I find an accomplice?
However, capturing Conrad’s accomplices was not the point from the beginning. The most important thing is attitude. No matter what others think, at least you have to believe that ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the assassin of the Seven Apostles killed Grand Duke Borg. , The turbulence of the Manyu army led them to fuel the flames, in order to seize the highest ruling power of the Manyu army.
This conspiracy was jointly exposed by Patlem and Clifford.
Patlem was ordered in danger and was appointed by Grand Duke Borg as the next Grand Duke of Manyu, in charge of the military and political affairs of the entire army.
Pat Lem had just taken the stage, he kept making big moves.
The hunt for the Seven Apostles assassins is just one of them.
The second is to reward their half-brothers and sisters, respectively, appointing Viscount Philip and Angie Berna as hereditary earls. South, a large area of land north of Bastille.
At the same time, other nobles were rewarded to varying degrees.
And sent a large number of messengers to invite them to the Faerun Castle, accept the reward, and pledge allegiance to it.
The Man Yu Army turned to Pat Lem for a while.
