Chapter Seventy-Six: Chess Pieces
Just now, after Giscard heard Ron's words, he actually figured out a lot of things. Ron has such a powerful Grandmaster Rune, why he didn't use it on them in the first place, it will have to wait until now. I'm afraid that from the very beginning, Ron wanted to wipe out his group, so he went around in this canyon for three days.
Even with the help of those fierce ogres, it would be difficult to block the way of Mosa's group, after all, Mosa has so many hostages in his hands. Those ogres don't cast rat bogeys, but at least they will be afraid.
But now it seems that Ron is not just running away in the canyon these days, with his knowledge of runes, he may not be able to change the magic circle that covers the canyon on a large scale, but it is estimated that it is not difficult to change the exit of the magic circle in the range. Because of this, it slowed down the time for Mosa and the others to leave, and finally ended up in a tragedy.
In fact, in general, Giska's guess is already ** ten, but the details are still somewhat surprising, for example, Mosa didn't expect to fight with the ogre at all, and when he found out that a group of them were not the opponents of the ogre, he was very obedient and handed over the hostages in order to save his life.
He felt that with his knowledge of the magic circle in the canyon, it was still quite easy to use the magic circle to get rid of these ogres after handing over the hostages. So after handing over the hostages, he took advantage of the fact that the ogres were not paying attention, and secretly escaped, and did not even untie the ropes on the students.
It's just that he didn't expect Ron to steal the beams and change the pillars, and quietly changed the location of the exit, making his original plan ruined in an instant.
And for the next period of time, he started a game of cat and mouse with those ogres, but unfortunately these ogres grew up in this Hawthorne Canyon, and he knew more about this place than an outsider.
If it weren't for the fact that the ropes on the bodies of these students and members of the Chamber of Commerce who were bound were all specially made materials, there was no specific method that could not be unraveled, so the ogre had to leave some people behind to protect the students, and another part to hunt down Mosa, so it was delayed for three whole days. If he could have untied those students in the first place, I'm afraid that Mossa wouldn't have been able to hide for even a day, and he would have been caught by those ogres who seemed clumsy, but were actually very ghostly.
Ron wasn't in a hurry to meet Angela, he was relieved to make sure they were safe for the time being, and he was more concerned about what the group of people were up to.
Ron pulls Giscard off the cliff and he collapses
I'm not worried about what Giska has in mind. The other party's two arms were already swollen at this time, don't hold the dagger to kill him, even if it is difficult to lift it.
"Okay, see, what the hell is going on?" asked Ron, leaning against a rock wall, looking at Giska.
Giska smiled, didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and said: "I'm the same as Wensheng, from the Hogg family, but unfortunately, I'm not as good as him, I'm just a child of a non-mainstream family in the side line, and I was sent to undergo harsh assassination training from the time I was sent to undergo harsh assassination training, and became a secret force in the Hogg family." It was only in the last two years that I was placed on the side of Brother Wensheng and became a student at the Royal Academy of Saint-Francis. ”
Giska recounted his life story, seemingly completely immersed in it, "I was only recently informed of part of the news, and I became the commander-in-chief of this operation academy, in order to capture the children of those families alive and force their families to join the Hogg family. ”
Hearing this, Ron's brow furrowed slightly, but he didn't interrupt Giska's words and listened to him continue.
"Even though Wen Sheng was from the Hogg family, they didn't seem to have told him about the plan. Instead, I was asked to monitor his every move, and told me that the people from the Gatling Chamber of Commerce would cooperate with all my actions. ”
"Since your purpose is to capture the children of the family alive, why did you kill all the students of Wilffen Academy?" asked Cowell, puzzled.
"Hehe, because they have been excluded from the list that can be used, Wilfen Academy is located in the Western Regions of the Empire, and many princes of the Western Regions have been tied to the same big ship at this time, and they can't afford to think too much, so keeping these children of the Western Regions will only get in the way, it is better to kill them. Do you think Mossa can control that rune circle? Because of my secret manipulation, that Annie avoided the fate of dying on the spot, after all, the Fryk family is also one of the three major families in the Holy Capital, and the genius of a family still has enough capital. And this Mossa is just a dog who has been pushed to the forefront, and it is ridiculous that he thinks that he can win the appreciation of his master with his performance, and thus help him occupy a place in the struggle of the family. Giska said with a disdainful smile on her face.
"Who the hell is your master?" Ron asked the question he had been wondering.
"I don't know, I only know that the owner should be a woman, I have never seen her true face, but the voice full of temptation, people can't resist her request at all, that feeling makes people both frightened and longing
。 Giska, unconsciously, licked her lips, and a strange flush appeared on her face.
"Your master just let you control the children of those families, and only those families need to submit to the Hogg family?
Giska nodded, "Yes, because...... During the time when we were holding the Four Academies Exchange Competition, an unprecedented war broke out in the Holy Capital. ”
"What!" Ron and Cowell shouted in unison. Both of them read a hint of horror in each other's eyes.
For the expressions of the two, Giska seemed to be very satisfied, and continued to say lightly: "If nothing else, the day we leave the Holy Capital, it should be the time when the princes of the Western Regions raise troops to attack the Holy Capital, and at that time, the Hogg family will become the internal response of these Western Regions families, capture the Holy Capital in the fastest time, and finally overthrow the century-old dynasty of the Holy Fran Empire, and overthrow the royal status of the Lyman family." ”
Giscard seemed to have a feeling that he was not shocking and endless, and while Ron was still thinking about the relationship, he threw out another bombshell news.
"Because the empire attaches great importance to this four-house exchange competition, King Sean and his teacher Connors have come to Hawthorne Canyon together. This also leads to the fact that the current holy capital may have changed hands long ago, even without the help of the Hogg family, the royal family is not monolithic, and the overthrow of the Lyman family is only a matter of time. Several major princes in the Eastern Regions had already received relevant news earlier, and some big family forces had long been dissatisfied with the royal family in the Northern Regions, but they wanted to divide the cake, but they did not have the consciousness of making a bird. That's why I've been standing still. But if they really saw the feat of the army of the Western Regions driving straight into the Holy Capital, I believe that they would not hesitate to pick up the butcher's knife and go to get a piece of the pie. It's just that the royal family has lived too peacefully over the years and lost its vigilance against the tigers and wolves around it. ”
Cowell recovered quickly after the initial shock, he was a member of the Chamber of Commerce, and after all, he was only a transactional dealings with these empires, and could not participate in the politics of the country. Even if the Saint-Franc Empire fell, and in the end it was just a different person as the king, and the trade with the Chamber of Commerce still existed, so he didn't need to worry too much.
It's just that Cowell seems to have overlooked a very important thing, that is, the whole thing is involved in the Gatling Chamber of Commerce, and the other party is so sparing no effort to contribute money and people, is it just doing good deeds? Obviously, it won't be so simple, there are many inside stories they don't know, and these things, I'm afraid Giscard won't know either, after all, he is just a pawn that can be discarded at any time.
