Tome of Blood

Chapter 218 -68- You understand what I mean?

After disconnecting from the projection connection with the Presbyterian Church, Duke Yorok returned to reality.

Recalling the meaningful eyes of the Great Elder just now, his expression changed a lot, and finally he couldn't help cursing:

"These old guys... all of them are old foxes!"

After speaking, he paced back and forth in the room, finally sighed, and took out a smaller communication crystal.

The brilliance of the crystal changed, and an illusory figure appeared in it.

It was a thin figure wearing a mage's robe. There were various bottles, jars and devices on the magic workbench behind him, and he was busy with something in front of the magic workbench, as if he was doing magic research.

Feeling the call, the thin figure in the crystal froze for a moment.

However, he reacted quickly, put down the work in hand, came to the front of the crystal, bowed respectfully to Duke Yorok, and said:

"My lord, have you... finished the presbytery meeting?"

Seeing the bottles and jars projected from the crystal, Duke Yorok's face darkened, and he suddenly became angry:

"Yourst! I should have said that, as the direct person in charge of the Return to the Star Project, you should pay more attention and stop messing with these bottles and cans!"

"The lilac war will fail, and it has nothing to do with you guys who don't do their jobs all day long and know how to fiddle with things! You don't even know how to be betrayed by red lilac!"

The figure projected in the communication crystal is none other than Earl Urst.

It's just that at this moment, the Earl of Blood doesn't have the majesty and momentum of presiding over the remote meeting of the Ness clan. He looks like a magician who is obsessed with magic research.

He slightly blocked the magic workbench behind him, smiled sheepishly, and coughed dryly:

"Ahem... Your Excellency Duke, you know that a long lifespan is too boring. The only way we can pass the time is to find some hobbies that suit us, just like you like playing chess with the Elf Queen..."

Seeing Duke Yorok's face getting darker and darker as he explained, Yurstton felt a slip of the tongue, stopped talking quickly, and changed the subject:

"Uh... Your Excellency, our people have stopped infiltrating Castel. Is your meeting going well? Is there anything else you need to do to contact me?"

Duke Yorok took a deep breath and said:

"The Great Elder ordered that all items related to the thorn and rose pattern be disposed of immediately, but... Castel is an important part of the Return to Star Project, so it cannot be given up."

Yurst's eyes widened:

"Dispose of the items related to the thorn rose pattern? So... there is really a god behind Castel?"

"Wait, the Great Elder said that we can't give up on Castel? Is this asking us to continue to infiltrate Castel? But... Isn't there a revived god behind Castel? It can't just let us go to the sacred Wang Ting has reported that there is an evil god reviving, right?"

Duke Yorok frowned:

"What do you do the report? Not to mention whether the report is useful to a god who has been dormant for hundreds of years under the eyes of the holy royal court. Is it possible that the idea of ​​attracting the holy royal court at this juncture is to make the return plan Complete failure?"

Yurst asked respectfully:

"Then... what do you mean?"

Duke Yorok thought for a while and said:

"The Great Elder said that Castel is an important part of the Return to the Star Project, and he must not give up..."

"For us, we just need Castel's support and backing when we execute the return to the stars plan."

"Getting support is not the only way to bring it into the sphere of influence. It is also an option to make the other party an ally through negotiations and transactions!"

Yurst moved slightly in his heart:

"Your Excellency, you mean...show favor to Castel?"

Duke Yorok nodded:

"I have this idea, but... everything depends on what is going on with Castel."

Yurst looked serious:

"I understand what you mean, I will send a subpoena to further speed up the background investigation of Earl Castel..."

"It's not enough..."

Duke Yorok shook his head and said:

"Suspension of infiltration has greatly delayed our plan. Now that we have decided to make a change, we need to act quickly."

"what do you mean……?"

"I intend to send a mission to Castel, on behalf of the mission of our Ness clan, to have a direct dialogue with the Castel family."

Duke Yorok said quietly.

Earl Ulster's eyes widened:

"Send a mission? Direct communication?"

"This... It is said that the Earl of Castel is examining the blood descendants of the Northland, and the target is our Ness clan. Will sending a mission at this time be directly..."

Duke Yorok interrupted him:

"Of course I know there are risks, but... this also represents sincerity."

Earl Urst moved in his heart and said:

"I understand what you mean. I will make arrangements to form a mission to negotiate with the Castel family."

Duke Yorok shook his head:

"Ordinary missions are not enough. Since we want to express our sincerity, the earl must take the lead in this matter."

"Although the earls of human beings are different from our earls, being represented by the earl also represents our respect and sincerity!"

Hearing these words, Earl Urst subconsciously looked at Duke Yorok, and Duke Yorok also looked at him:

"Yourst, you are the direct person in charge of the Return to Star Project, and no one knows the specific progress of the Return to Star Project better than you."

"I think...you know what I mean?"

Earl of Ulster: ...

...

The presence of the Gorefiend adds a touch of uncertainty to Charlotte's review plans.

However, apart from the attack on Sebastian, during the following period of time, there were no traces of Gorefiend cultists in Castel.

Even the black dragon seemed to have disappeared.

Viscount Leon-Castel's review in the southern part of the Earl of Castel also went smoothly. Although it was inevitable that he would encounter opposition from the local nobles, with the strong support of the Castel family, the territory The middle and small aristocrats have no choice of rejection at all.

Charlotte, who was staying in Northport, the capital, received progress reports from the old Viscount almost every day. She was a little surprised that the Ness clan had really completely retreated.

The smooth operation of the old Viscount was also due to this reason. The abandonment of the blood descendants left those nobles with their own minds completely without choice, and finally had to accept the review of the new lord honestly.

At the same time, a Carrick sailing ship from the Fallen Star Kingdom, carrying the Ness delegation headed by Earl Urst, sailed into the port of Beigang.

Back to work today.
