If the Grand Duke of the Borg is at his peak, the loyalty of the Grand Duke's Guard is undoubted, whether it is for themselves or for his family, he must contribute his loyalty - to be able to join the Grand Duke's Guard, he must be the son of the Lord and the nobles, many of whom are the first heirs of the Lord and the nobles, which is their obligation when they are young. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}

But now that the Grand Duke of Borg is half-dead, and the entire Manyu military territory is in turmoil, it is difficult to say.

The reason is still that, they are not only responsible for themselves, but also for the family behind them.

Even Clifford, who is the general of the Grand Duke's Guard, has to face the enormous pressure that his family has brought to him, let alone others.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Grand Duke Borg is hopeless, and the battle for the heir has reached the most critical moment, and they must choose to take sides.

Whether it is on the side of Philip or Patrium, even the least likely choice of Angie Bena is better than holding a half-cut body into the ground.

In fact, the people who want Archduke Borg to die the most now are the people who defend him.

But Cliffoud had to use them again because he had no one available.

Who instigated this assassination, Clifford knew very well, and when Partlem sent someone to invite him, he reacted, following Archduke Borg for so many years, even if it was elm, it would be smoked a little bit, not to mention that his background itself was not low, and his political sense was not bad.

Compared with Viscount Philip, even with the support of Angie Bena, Patlem's disadvantage is very obvious, and the easiest way to redeem this is to first sit on his own position, and the half-dead Archduke Borg is the biggest obstacle.

During this time, they were strictly guarded, and there were at least two or more Grand Duke guards, guarding the Grand Duke of Borg every step of the way.

Again, when something goes wrong internally, no matter how tightly defended it is, it won't help.

"I'm sorry, my lord, but the Assassin was too cunning to seduce us on purpose. The captain of the Grand Duke's guard explained in a panic, but his eyes flickered, revealing his true thoughts.

"You ...... You have betrayed the trust placed in you by the Grand Duke. ”

Clifford angrily pointed his sword at his surroundings.

"Now that you are satisfied, the Grand Duke has returned to heaven! The Grand Duke was not killed by the assassins, but by you! Your souls will not escape the punishment of self-reproach in this life. ”

"Lord Clifford, where do you begin with this? We are faithfully guarding Your Majesty. The captain of the Grand Duke's guard retorted with a flushed face.

A man wants a face, and a tree wants bark.

Even if it's an open secret, this kind of thing can be covered in the box, just cover it in the box, and if you can't recognize it, no one wants to carry this kind of pot.

"Haha...... Loyal, you are embarrassed to say loyal...... It's the biggest joke I've ever heard in my life...... Haha......"

The death of the Archduke Borg stimulated Cliffoud too much, and the rain of arrows just now made his heart completely cold, and he looked around, in the entire Feron Castle, he was the only one who wanted to let the Archduke Borg live, and the rest of the people wanted 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, and he has offended countless people unconsciously, but he has absolutely nothing to say to the soldiers who follow him, especially the guards around him, over the years, there have been countless maids and waiters who have been executed for various names, but there are no guards.

Everyone else can betray Archduke Borg, even his own children, but these guards cannot.

"Lord Clifford, you come down first, we have something to say. Patlaim had a sad look on his face, whether it was true or not. "No one wants this kind of tragedy to happen, and the most important thing for us now is to arrest the assassins. ”

"I can swear allegiance to you, but the assassin must die. Clifford burst into arms.

"What?" Patrium was stunned for a moment, with a surprise smile on his face, but he immediately reacted that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly lowered his eyes, but he couldn't suppress the upward corners of his mouth, revealing his inner excitement.

This is a serious champion knight, the top champion knight.

For any liege, having a champion knight under his command and not having a champion knight are very different concepts.

Champion Knights are often as powerful as nuclear bombs.

It is true that their lethality is not as strong as that of a nuclear bomb, but in a skirmish, they have an absolute deterrent, and once a champion knight is used for assassination, unless there is a large army to protect it, only the champion knight can fight them.

In front of Angie Bena, why does Patleme always feel a head shorter when he speaks, in addition to the comparison of military strength, but also because the other party has a champion knight in charge.

It would be a lie to say that Partlem did not have any intention of wooing Clifford.

Cliffoud is not only a champion knight, but also the head of an espionage organization under Archduke Borg, and if he is co-opted, there will be a ready-made spy organization available.

However, Clifford was known for his loyalty to the Archduke Borg, especially under his own protection, and when the Archduke Borg was seriously injured, he may have acted more extreme out of guilt.

Patlem didn't dare to show this kind of meaning in front of him easily, if he collided with him and was cut off by a sword, it would be called a wrong.

Unexpectedly, Clifford took the initiative to bring it up, and Patalem couldn't believe his ears.

"The Assassin must die!" Clifford repeated through gritted teeth.

Before his words could land, one of the guards suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the outside of the castle.

Who is Conrad, who is not to use chaos and Patrium cover to infiltrate the guards?

Clearly, he knew that Patalem had no way of refusing the temptation.

The so-called feelings and so-called promises, in the face of interests, will collapse.

Because in the face of such a temptation, Conrad could not refuse, and it was almost inevitable that he would become an outcast.

He calculated so much, but he didn't calculate that Clifford was so serious about revenge for Archduke Borg.

"You're the one you're waiting for!" Clifford laughed sadly, "Whoever dares to stop me, die!"

"Catch the Assassins, Catch the Assassins, Live or Die!Dead or Alive!" Patlem said loudly, jumping to his feet.

The situation suddenly changed 180 degrees, and Conrad was reduced from the object of everyone's protection to the street rat that everyone shouted and beaten.

Not to mention that Conrad is just a great knight-level manipulator, even if he is replaced by a champion knight-level manipulator like Darnell, the possibility of escaping is very small.

Before Clifford could chase after him, the overwhelming rain of arrows shot Conrad into a hedgehog, and in front of the indiscriminate covering shot, Conrad's dark shield and magic power exploded, and it was completely useless.

Conrad turned to look at Patlem, spurting blood, and said with resentment in his eyes: "Today's me, tomorrow's you, you will pay the price for your broken promise, and the Seven Apostles will not let you go!"

Patrium had not taken Conrad's threat to death into account, just the last curse of a dead man on his deathbed!

If this curse really worked, they wouldn't be in so much trouble, and Archduke Borg would have been cursed to death a thousand times.

But the last sentence was like an invisible blade, slashing at Patrium's heart, and he rushed to Conrad in a hurry, dragging him and shaking him again and again, and said with a frightened expression: "The Seven Apostles? Which Seven Apostles? Are you a member of the Seven Apostles?"

"Ahem...... Conrad spat out a mouthful of blood, his anger like a gossamer, and a hint of revenge floated on his resentful and distorted face, "This world ...... And how many of the Seven Apostles? And ...... Who dares to claim ...... The Seven Apostles?hahaha......"

With a long laugh, Conrad let out his last breath.

How many Seven Apostles are there in the world?

How many people in the world dare to call the Seven Apostles?

Yes, no one but the madmen would call themselves the Seven Apostles.

In the continent of Ashan, the Seven Apostles have become synonymous with madness, because this name represents countless heart-wrenching events, many of which are far-reaching.

Patrium felt that he had been struck by lightning, and he knew that Conrad's purpose in approaching him was not pure, and he didn't know it before, but when he gradually took power, he also knew.

But he didn't expect that Conrad would be a member of the madman concentration camp.

An irrepressible cold permeated his body.

And not just because of the possibility of retribution from the Seven Apostles.

And because the other party has been lurking by his side silently for so long, if the other party wants to be unfavorable to himself?

"Are you the real Seven Apostles or the false Seven Apostles, and what is the purpose of your lurking around me?"

Patrium shook Conrad uncontrollably and asked questions with the last expectation.

Hopefully, Conrad just said this on purpose to get revenge on him.

But carefully recalling Conrad's past behavior and style - unscrupulous means for power, warlock identity, rootless identity, can only be found until he is ten years old, and before that, there is a blank.

This coincides with the style of the Seven Apostles, who like to train warlock orphans as assassin killers.

Nothing can stand up to suspicion, and many things that are originally unrelated, after such in-depth speculation, will become plausible, as if they have something to do with each other.

The response to Patlem was just a stiff, eerie smile that seemed to be mocking him and making him suspicious.

"Lord Clifford, you heard it just now, this guy is a spy of the Seven Apostles, an assassin of the Seven Apostles, everything is a conspiracy of the Seven Apostles, yes, the mountain riots, the slave uprising, and the assassination of His Majesty are all the conspiracy of the Seven Apostles, they want to plot against the Manyu Army, yes, it must be like this, Lord Clifford, you have to testify for me, I am just deceived by treachery, you can protect me. ”

Patlaim danced at Clifford.

Whether Clifford believed it or not, he believed it himself anyway, feeling that he had exposed a shocking conspiracy, and that Archduke Borg's death had nothing to do with him, that it was entirely planned by Conrad, and that he was just a deceived victim.

"Lord Patlem, please rest assured, these madmen of the scourge, in order to create panic and seek power, unscrupulous means, not only you are blinded, we are all blinded, our Manyu army leader and the Seven Apostles are incompatible, although these madmen are crazy, but their whereabouts are secretive, well-planned, and organized to carry out their actions, there will definitely be people in Solo City who cooperate with him, there are their dens, we must pursue the whole city and completely eradicate these madmen. ”

Clifford saluted Patlem with a solemn 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 blamed on the heads of the Seven Apostles without burden, regardless of whether Conrad's identity is true or not.

Because the name of the Seven Apostles is stinky enough, especially in the eyes of the lords and nobles, it is not an exaggeration for these madmen to do such crazy things, anyway, the kings and dukes who died in their hands are not one or two, and the reason why those great lords and nobles attach so much importance to their own safety is that they are forced out under the endless assassination methods of the Seven Apostles.

Even if Conrad's identity is fake, the Seven Apostles will not jump out to deny it, but will gladly accept it and use it to increase his prestige.

Of course, even if they jump out and deny it, no one will buy their account, who made their reputation too stinky!

Clifford was loyal to Archduke Borg, and that was on the premise that the other party was alive.

He was not faithful enough to risk his life and his family for the sake of a dead man.

The assassin he proposed earlier was already looking for a step for himself, and since Conrad leaned himself on the Seven Apostles, it would be the best.

Otherwise, they will also ponder a name for him afterwards.

Partlem may not be the best option, but it's the only way forward for Clifford.

"Good, good, good!" Patalem nodded, "There is chaos in the military leadership right now, and Lord Clifford needs to worry a lot, a lot of trouble. ”

When the two sides reach an agreement, the rest of the matter is simple, not only to unify the caliber, but also to make the scene look like it.

That night, the news of the assassination of the Archduke Borg by the Seven Apostles Assassins spread like wings to all the territories of the Manyu Legion, and to all the Archdukes of the Byron Alliance.

At the same time, the Faeron family carried out a large-scale raid on the city of Solo, and arrested the madmen of the Seven Apostles.

For a time, the rumors of the cranes in the troubled Solo City were arrested and put in prison, and there were hundreds of people.

Of course, most of them were soon proven innocent, and only a small number of them were suspicious, not so much as the Seven Apostles, but the bandits of the Traitor Section, and a few were even fugitive murderers.

After all, the Seven Apostles would not have engraved these three words on their faces, and if Conrad hadn't shouted before he died, who would have connected him to the Seven Apostles?

Until now, I don't know whether his identity as the Seven Apostles is true or not, let alone arrest his accomplices.

What's more, Patleum knew that the assassination of Archduke Borg was planned by him and Conrad at all, where to find an accomplice?

However, from the beginning, it was not the point to catch Conrad's accomplices, the most important thing was the posture, no matter what others thought, at least I had to believe that it was the assassins of the Seven Apostles who killed the Grand Duke Borg, and the turmoil in the Manyu military territory was also fueled by them, in order to seize the supremacy of the Manyu military territory.

The conspiracy was unbunked by Patlem and Clifford.

Patleum was appointed by Archduke Borg as the next Archduke of Manyau, in charge of the military and political affairs of the whole army.

As soon as Patleme came to power, he made a lot of moves.

The hunt for the Seven Apostles Assassins is just one of them.

The second is to reward their half-siblings, appointing Viscount Philip and Angie Bena as hereditary counts, Viscount Philip's fief is in the original fief near the Broken Steppe, and Angie Bena's fief is in a large area south of the city of Sauron and north of the Bastille.

At the same time, other lords and nobles were rewarded to varying degrees.

He sent a large number of messengers, inviting them to the castle of Faerun, accepting the reward, and swearing allegiance to it.

For a moment, the Manyu Army turned to Patlem.
