Chapter 158: An Unquiet Night
In a sense, the fighting at the top will never have anything to do with the civilians at the bottom.
On this night at the end of November, Illano was as hot as the dog days, and the civilians of Illano kept complaining about the weather in their beds, but they did not know that in the Hall Manor, not far from Illano, a battle was being staged to exterminate their families.
"Lauren, Zeney, Martin, Douglas, come out and meet me!" Barjin stood in the doorway of the manor's hall and shouted.
The strength of the Hall family is impossible to resist the attacks of the four families. What's more important is the loss of the family seal, so that he has no way to deploy troops in advance, and the private troops raised by the Hall family are all farther away and did not come.
"Hey, hey, hey! Brother Bajin, do you have any orders? Douglas's signature wicked smile sounded, and in the midst of the shouts of killing, it seemed like the greatest irony.
"Lauren, I just want to ask you, you know that I didn't do the attack, who gave you the courage to do it to me? Aren't you afraid of royal punishment? "Barkin wants to grasp the last straw.
The Zijin Emperor doesn't care about the disagreement between the nobles below, and he doesn't care who annexes whom, as long as the taxes that should be paid are paid. But this also has a bottom line, that is, you can't kill people and set fires openly, otherwise there won't be a mess below?
The behavior of the four major families now is to cross the line, and this is Ba Jin's last hope.
"Hmph, Ba Jin, do you want to die a person?" Lauren looked at Barkin, his face full of pride on the moral supremacy.
"Ba Jin, your identity has been revealed. Originally, we were only suspicious, but after we obtained your family master's seal, we already have enough evidence. The royal family has issued a kill order, and none of you Hall family should try to escape. The royal family of Beate and his party you sent out has already sent a strangulation team to deal with it! Zeni let out a long sigh: "Bajin from the kingdom of the HRE. Hall. You should know that without the order of the royal family, we would never have been able to kill it so aggressively! β
Ba Jin's face turned extremely pale with a brush. His identity as a member of the HRE Kingdom has always been a secret, in his ancestral generation, their Hall family was sent to the Zijin Kingdom as an undercover agent, with the secret help of the HRE Kingdom, slowly formed a big family, and then was favored by the Zijin royal family, moved to Ilano, after two generations of more than 50 years of hard work, finally gained a firm foothold in Ilano, and successfully controlled more than seventy percent of the grain trade in the southwest of the Zijin Kingdom.
Seeing that years of hard work are about to be harvested, at this time his identity is exposed. What's going on?
"This can't be, my identity can't be revealed! How the hell do you know? Barking yelled in disbelief.
"It doesn't matter how we know anymore, what matters is that the royal family has given the order. So, you die! Douglas laughed, and with a wave of his hand, countless arrows rained down on Barkin's location.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Has it already begun? This is our chance! "City Lord's Mansion, Rachel put on her white tiger skirt armor, and the cold mask was pulled down, just like her heart at the moment.
"City Lord, do you really want to do this? You have to understand that the royal family will not allow you to do this! "The Grand Commander wants to give Rachel one last time.
"What the royal family does not allow is independence, I didn't think about independence, I just wanted to make the Twin Cities independent. Build a paradise that belongs only to our women! Rachel shook her head stubbornly, a look of anticipation in her eyes.
Renus looked at Rachel's back and let out a long sigh, she knew that it was useless for her to say anything at this time.
"Let's hope that plan will work!" Renas looked out at the night and thought silently.
"Lord of the Castle, please have tea!" The maid stepped forward to offer fragrant tea. This is also a habit of Rachel, before she does it, she wants to eat a cup of fragrant tea to calm down.
Rachel took a sip of the hot and cold tea, then slammed the cup on the ground: "I want you all to know that I'm not wrong!" Let's go! β
"Yes!" Renus replied.
Behind them, the most elite 1,000 troops of the City Guard had been assembled.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Guili Tongfang.
"You, who are you? What do you want to do? Mother Lu, the owner of Tongfang, looked at the few black-clothed people in front of her with a pale face, and beside her, the guards of Tongfang fell to the ground.
"Really, can't you just keep being a good person? It's disappointing! "One of the men in black was carrying a heavy long sword.
Mother Lu looked at this man in black, and her heart was shocked, obviously there was only a silver level 1 level, but she slashed a silver level 7 secret guard to death with a single sword, what kind of monster is this, and what kind of thing is that pitch black long sword?
"Okay, if you want to live, send a message to your master. You've got to be good, if you're playing tricks, you should know what the end will do, don't you? The black-clothed man carrying the sword grinned, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth in the darkness, reflecting the faint firelight, which made Lu's mother's heart sink directly to the bottom.
She knew that as long as she sent this news, there would only be one way for her to go in the future, incognito, otherwise, she would die. But it is easy to go from simple to luxurious, and difficult to go from luxury to simple. She has long been accustomed to the prosperous days, and how can she accept letting her live like an animal again?
With a secret hatred in her heart, as soon as she gritted her teeth, she was ready to commit suicide, if she couldn't be rich, it would be better to die.
It's a pity that her thoughts just came to mind, but the man in black on the opposite side seemed to have guessed a long time ago, and the man in black carrying the sword suddenly slapped Mother Lu's shoulder: "Boss, you have to understand that the most terrible thing in this world is not death at all!" In other words, you are not even afraid of death, why don't you have the courage to live an ordinary life? I didn't want to be so cruel, but you made me very embarrassed! β
As he spoke, red ants the size of his little finger kept crawling out of the arms of the man in black.
"Ahh Mother Lu's screams had just started and disappeared, because there was a thin needle stuck in her throat, and it was this thin needle that made her unable to scream any more.
She didn't die, but she was worse than dead.
"So, here's the problem!" The man in black showed his true face under the lamplight, and the kind smile that seemed to be a good old man seemed so cold at the moment: "Are you going to live or die?" Or is it better to live than to die? β
Lu's mother was desperate, she knew that she had no choice.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Hall Manor.
Ba Jin is dead, and Hall Manor has been bulldozed, even if the Hall family has a golden sixth-level offering, it is useless - in fact, when it is known that the Hall family is an undercover agent of the HRE Kingdom, this golden sixth-level worship is "righteous and annihilated".
Although everyone knows that this guy just doesn't want to die with the Hall family. But what does it matter? It's always good to deal with one less Golden Sixth.
Lauren stood in a corner of the manor, silently watching everything in front of her, her wise eyes flickering, as if calculating something.
Pu Ling, Pu Ling!
A snow eagle descended from the sky and landed on Lauren's outstretched arms.
Lauren removed the letter box from the snow eagle's feet, opened the note and looked at it, then smiled with satisfaction.
"Boss Lauren, that looks like good news!" Douglas smirked.
"It's good news, the other party has taken the bait. We can go back to the play! Lauren's indifferent face showed a hint of smugness.
"Oh? is worthy of being Lauren's boss, the plan is closely linked step by step, Douglas admires it! "Douglas gave it up again and again, not like a house master, but like a house slave.
Zeny and Martin glanced at each other, and both saw a hint of indifference in each other's eyes.
"Let's go, the show is only starting now!" Lauren waved his hand in high spirits, the heads of the three families followed, and the troops of the four major families were ready to go.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Marquis' Palace!
Rachel arrived at the door with a group of city guards.
"Rush in, don't kill, just keep it under control!" Rachel commanded his men to rush to the Marquis's Palace.
At the same time, the Grand Commander was attacking the Breine family's mansion, and the other two were also targeted.
The city lord's mansion soldiers divided into four routes, attacking the mansions of the four major families, not to kill people, but to control the other party's family, and then use this as a bargaining chip.
Rachel's plan has always been very straightforward, or very stupid and naΓ―ve, she wants to take advantage of the four major families to attack Hall Manor, and the mansion defense is blank to control the other party's family, and then get the other party to sign a contract to recognize the autonomy of Illano West City, for which she is even willing to give up the position of Illano as the city lord, only asking West City to become an independent daughter city.
Of course, this is only the first step.
The second step is to take his subordinates and the people of the daughter city to move to a "paradise", and live a happy life without men from now on.
I have to say, to a certain extent, the thinking pattern of this plan has broken through the sky.
But one way or another, that's what Rachel did.
"Rachel, what do you want to do?" In front of the Marquis's Palace, Austin held a moonlight sword and looked at Rachel with a heavy face.
"Austin, I don't want to hurt anyone, just to borrow from you, you'd better not resist, you should know that you are not my opponent!" Rachel looked at Austin with a complicated gaze.
Although she doesn't like Austen, she is a person after all, and she has kept Austin's kindness to her over the years, but now the path she has chosen does not allow her to retreat, no matter who it is, it will be moved away in front of her.
"Rachel, you're not going to make it, stop it!" Austin shook his head: "Your actions will not be approved by the royal family!" β
"The royal family won't care about this, the royal family won't care about the lives and deaths of the people below at all, I just want to live my own life, I just want to build a haven for women!" Rachel revels in her dreams of "greatness".
"In that case, then I have to stop you! I don't want you to be guillotined by royalty! Austin raised the moonlight sword in his hand, and a delicate flower appeared behind him.
This is Austin's war spirit, the bewitching flower that only Illano exists.
Moonlit Night Amida!
While!
With a bang, the battle began. (To be continued.) )
