Chapter 355: Assassination
"Wilton?" The sight that greeted him surprised Bowall. Wilton had a dagger stuck in his vest. The dagger had a very quaint appearance, with a black magical sheen on it, apparently with a high-level enchantment on it. Boval quickly tried Wilton's snort.
Stopped? Bowval's heart sank, and he hurriedly recited the prayer of the Light, casting the Light spell on Wilton. Again and again, at last, he felt a faint, almost nonexistent breath from his finger under Wilton's nose.
Fortunately, there is still salvation.
Bowval's heart was slightly relieved, but the Holy Light Technique in his hand did not dare to stop for a moment.
"Who did that?"
Wilton was only in a coma with more breath and less breath, and he couldn't answer a word.
Still, what Berval feared happened. There were really assassins who got in. At this moment, Bowval's greatest concern was Anduin's safety. But now he couldn't stop treating Viltun, or Wilton would be finished. He couldn't help but feel a little agitated and cried out loudly.
"Guards! Anyone? β
"Oh my God!!" Finally someone heard the voice and came to this room. Seeing this scene in front of me, I couldn't believe my eyes.
The new duke fell to the ground covered in blood.
"What's going on?"
"Pastor! Call the priest! Boval roared. He didn't know what was going on, the first priority was to get Wilton back, otherwise, the new Duke would be killed at the celebration banquet, which would be a resounding slap in the face of Stormwind and Varian. "Also, block the news. Restrict the departure of personnel! Got it? β
"Ming...... I see! "The guards weren't stupid, they were just blindsided. After listening to Bolval's instructions, he immediately came back to his senses, and quickly did as Bolval instructed.
The priest soon came.
Varian, who got the news, arrived with Anduin and his arena buddies.
Looking at Verton who was being rescued by the priest. Varian's face was extremely ugly.
"What's going on, Berval."
"Felicia and I were just talking down here when we suddenly heard someone calling for help. I heard what sounded like Wilton's voice, so I hurriedly flipped it over and looked at it. There was no one in the room when I came in. Wilton just lay like that...... I hurriedly cast the Holy Light Spell to try to heal him. Then someone else came, and you will know what happened next, Your Majesty. β
"Save him! At all costs. Varian commanded in a cold voice. Boyval, you come with me. β
After the priest took over Bolval's work, Varian and Bolval turned and went to another break room.
"Bolval." Varian sat down and clasped his hands on his lap. "There's so much going on today. I was in a good mood. But now ......"
"I'm sorry. Your Majesty. It was my negligence. β
Varian waved his hand. "It's not you who is in charge of the palace guards today. And what does it have to do with you. β
Bolval pondered for a moment and spoke, "It is impossible for the murderer to escape from the balcony. It is likely that he will still be at the banquet. Your Majesty, do we need to screen for suspicious people? β
"Suspicious person?" Varian laughed, "When do you think Wilton will wake up?" β
Berval groaned. He was not a professional pastor though. But there is still a lot of experience. "It's hard to wake up, at least tonight."
The two exchanged a look knowingly. Even Varian couldn't have asked all the nobles attending today's meeting to stay behind without Verton identifying the killer.
Varian sighed. "Can you get it back?"
Bolval was silent for a moment. "Perhaps...... Not a problem. β
"In that case, don't leak the news." Varian touched his face and decided. "I'll let MI7 investigate this later."
"Yes."
After receiving Berval's reply, Varian remained silent. It seems to be thinking about something. He didn't speak. Nor could Bolvar leave hastily. Fortunately, he was used to Varian's style, so he just waited patiently.
Varian seemed to finally make up his mind, and spoke slowly.
"Berval, your fiancΓ©e, Miss Felicia, is a beautiful woman who complements you very well."
"Thank you for the compliment, Felicia will be happy to hear your compliment."
Varian looked at Bolval's expression, which was not different from before, and it didn't look like he was falling in love at all.
"But...... I'm curious, the other Dead Rider who entered your mansion with her. Why don't you bring her along? For a small dinner, there is nothing difficult to entertain one more guest. Now that you've agreed to Deathrider's request for an alliance. Such a trivial thing is harmless. β
As he spoke, Varian's eyes were fixed on Bolval without blinking. His blue eyes reflected Bowval's somewhat dull face for a moment.
Berval was genuinely surprised.
So much happened tonight. What's not more important than that? But why did Varian only ask about this seemingly trivial matter?
Burnard's mind was rapidly analyzing Varian's thoughts, but he didn't dare to reveal the slightest flaw in his mouth.
"Because I was going to propose to Felicia, I was afraid that she would not be able to pull her face in front of her colleagues and reject me, so I ......"
"Ah, Bolvar, are you worried about that too?" Varian chuckled sullenly, and he immediately clenched his fist in front of his lips to hide his smile. "I always thought you were fearless."
"Your Majesty laughed, I ...... Naturally, there are times when I am afraid......"
"My Grand Duke, what are you afraid of?"
Bolval laughed and did not answer.
Without waiting for Bolval's answer, Varian didn't ask. It's just that he seems to have made up his mind today and doesn't intend to let Bolval change the subject. "So, look, when am I going to your house?"
"Huh?"
Varian smiled. "You've made a successful proposal. Since the Dead Riders have sent messengers, it makes sense that I should see them one by one, but there is no need to make any big fuss. As a private visit, you can also meet at your house by the way. What do you think? β
For a moment, Bolval didn't understand what Varian's obsession was for.
Or how much does he know?
But perhaps...... Now should be a good opportunity to test his attitude?
Berval took a deep breath.
"Your Majesty......"
"Huh?" Maybe all night Varian had been waiting for just this time. He smiled, anticipating Bolval's next words.
"Actually, there is one thing ......" (to be continued.) )
