Chapter 0499: Old Marquis

Count Mackinto tilted his head undeniably, lowered his voice and said: "Don't you think it's strange, the eyes of the Kingdom Intelligence Department are all over the country, and those nobles are so big in their expropriation, the Marquis of Trolope should have known about it a long time ago." ”

Renard nodded thoughtfully when he heard this: "You mean that the other party did it on purpose?"

Earl Mackinto put his finger to his lips and motioned for him to be more careful in what he said, since the target they were talking about was less than five meters away from the two of them.

Then he said in an inaudible voice: "How would the ordinary nobles dare to openly disobey the king's orders without the support of the great men behind them, and it so happened that the Marquis of Trooppe's butcher's knife fell as soon as they had put the money in their pockets. ”

"I have heard that His Majesty has copied nearly 100,000 gold coins from the homes of these magnates, which has relieved the urgent need for food and military supplies. ”

When Lei Ye heard this, he couldn't help but shudder: "What do you mean......"

Before he could say his words, a clear cold snort came from the side, and the sound was like a sledgehammer, smashing into Lei Ye's heart.

Count Mackinto was not spared, his face suddenly turned pale, and he hurriedly straightened up, sat upright in his chair, and never spoke again.

Renard looked at the Marquis of Trolope not far away, and said secretly: "It's so strong!"

Only then did he suddenly remember that this old marquis was a contemporary of His Majesty Rochelle, and now there are people around one hundred and forty or fifty years old who can live for so long......

The words epic powerhouse suddenly appeared in Lei Ye's mind, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and then affirmed that as long as the other party didn't have a problem with the back of his ears, all the words that the two of them said just now fell into each other's ears.

That cold snort is the best proof that the other party's ears are still bright.

Count Mackinto looked at Lei Ye with a wry smile: "We seem to have upset this lord." ”

Renard ignored the other party's ridicule and asked in a low voice, "What is the strength of this adult?"

He vaguely felt that this old man's strength was far from being as simple as an epic-level powerhouse, at least the momentum he had just exuded was by no means comparable to a high-level epic-level martial artist like Lei Dawang.

Hearing this, Earl Mackinto pretended to be calm and said, "It seems to be stronger than Frank's Magister." ”

Stronger than Frank Magister?

Magister Frank is already a strong man close to a demigod, so this old marquis ......

Demigods!Reynard's heart chuckled, and he immediately questioned, "How do you know?"

The Marquis did not often appear in front of ordinary people, and even since the death of His Majesty Marshall, he has not appeared in the public eye, and many people think that he is dead.

Earl Mackinto swallowed, which was very different from his previous elegant image: "You may not know, but do I remember it clearly, and know the demon plague thirty years ago?"

Without waiting for Lei Ye to answer, he said to himself: "The hardest hit area that year was Hailan Province. ”

This is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind.

The people of Hailan Province are considered to have fallen into blood mold, and they are concerned about fighting a war, and the outbreak of demonic disasters is still the most serious for them.

Count Mackinto slowly recounted, "I remember that three years before the end of the Demon Plague, demons were wreaking havoc on the land of Hailan Province, and they had the intention of destroying the entire province......

In the twenty-third year of His Majesty's reign, a demonic disaster broke out, and the kingdom of Arthur was devastated.

He couldn't bear his subjects to live in the poison of the devil, and despite the advice of the courtiers, he personally led an army of 100,000 into Hailan Province to pacify the demonic disaster.

After three months of fierce fighting, hundreds of thousands of demons were hanged, and finally the main forces of the two sides met in Broken Spear City for a decisive battle.

An army of 100,000 humans faced an army of millions of demons, and the odds of victory were extremely slim.

His Majesty Marshall ordered his foot soldiers to enter the city of Broken Spear to defend it, and he personally led 20,000 iron cavalry to attack the demon army of one million as a cover, and finally died in his country.

Hearing this, Lei Ye couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, the first two emperors of the Arthur Kingdom had something to admire.

Earl Mackinto said with remembrance: "After the death of His Majesty Marshall, His Majesty Bertram succeeded to the throne, and he not only inherited the throne, but also inherited the courage and courage of His Majesty Marshall, and personally led a large army to fight against the demons......"

Perhaps it was because of the jealousy of the talent, His Majesty Bertram was weak since he was a child, and the long period of immediate warfare consumed his energy and blood, and in less than three years, this Majesty fell like a meteor.

Then the current King Ferdinand succeeded to the throne, he was only four years old at the time, and he did not know how to lead the army in battle, which caused the demons to become more and more arrogant, and even had the intention of attacking the province of Rose.

The Marquis of Trolope was favored by three generations of kings, and naturally he would not let the Kingdom of Arthur be destroyed in the hands of demons.

As a result, this powerless intelligence leader in people's impression actually showed unparalleled strength and single-handedly quelled the demon disaster in Arthur's kingdom.

Count Mackinto's eyes flashed with an inexplicable brilliance: "This Marquis single-handedly rushed into the army formation composed of millions of demons, and killed hundreds of demon nobles one after another, including many demon nobles of the level of Edwardsre-level demon envoys. ”

Renard gasped when he heard this, he had fought with demons for so many years, and he had read a lot of books about demons, so he naturally knew what level of demon Edwardser level demon envoy was.

The Edwardsre-level Demon Envoy is almost the strongest combat power under the Demon Lord, and has the strength of a demigod.

The three demon worshippers including Gilbert he encountered during his attack on Ignaz City are at most Ministrian-level envoys under Edwardser's demon envoys if they are divided according to the level of demons.

This shows how strong the Edwardser-level envoy is.

Marquis of Trollope was able to kill a demon powerhouse of this level in an army of millions of demons, which showed how terrifying his own strength was.

Count Mackinto approached Lei Ye again, and said mysteriously: "Let me tell you another news, Count Louis is the student of this old marquis, and he is also his great-grandson-in-law. ”

When he spoke, there was a little jealousy and reverence in his eyes: "In the nearly seventy years since the founding of the Arthurian Kingdom, countless officials have been transferred, the rise and fall of the family has never stopped, and the military and political officials have changed by an unknown number of hundreds, but his position as the director of the intelligence bureau has never been moved. ”

This is not just a matter of sainthood, it is enough to describe absolute trust.

Even a suspicious man like Ferdinand trusted the old marquis, which shows how transcendent his position in the kingdom is.

Perhaps it was the discussion between the two that once again aroused the dissatisfaction of the old marquis, and the other party let out a cold snort with a warning meaning, although the voice was not mixed with any breathtaking momentum, but it still made the two of them tremble.
