In the empty castle hall, the atmosphere of dead silence was condensed in the air like substance, and dozens of people seemed to have a deep tacit understanding, so silent that there was no sound, as if even the sound of the wind had stopped at this moment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The hall was so silent that it seemed to hear the sound of everyone's heartbeat.

Fear, consternation, struggle, disbelief...... Every nobleman standing in the hall hung their heads, not daring to look at the figure sitting in the chair, not daring to believe the facts before them.

Is Ruben Fried still alive? Isn't he supposed to be dead?!

Every nobleman roared desperately in their hearts, thinking back to the whole seamless plan, obviously every step was carried out perfectly, why was the result completely different from what they imagined?!

And now this most critical enemy is alive and well, and no one knows how this young and vigorous earl will vent his anger.

The aristocrats, who were terrified in the long wait, trembled one by one. If it weren't for the presence of Barry Senna, they would have fled back to their territory.

The old man standing at the front did not have the slightest look of panic on his face, but was extremely calm.

From the moment he knew that Rubén Fried was still alive, the gamble had been lost - he had put all his bets on it, but it had not been able to take the young count's life, but had allowed him to survive.

In addition, Will Senna is probably dead, and the Senna family, which has lost an important heir and suffered a heavy blow in prestige and financial resources, has to lie dormant under the wings of the Fried family for the time being.

But even if Lu Wen wins, it doesn't mean what he can do to himself. After all, it was he who saved the life of the Earl from the refugees, and Levin had no right to punish him, and as for leaving the castle and returning to the realm without permission, it was not a serious fault in the face of saving his life.

Not to mention that it is now their own army that controls the castle. Even if the Count was going to come hard, he would have to think about the consequences - how long could the knights of the Guard, who had fought all night, hold out in front of the heavily armed army?

Another good thing about being old is that you look down on success or failure. One defeat doesn't decide anything, as long as he is alive, he can continue to lead the Senna family to rebel secretly, so that the rule of the Fried family in the deep forest castle will never be stable.

The old man slowly raised his head, and Ruben Fried, who was sitting in the lord's seat, was also looking at him. The two men met only one glance, and Barry Senna bowed his head humbly, like a loyal courtier.

At this moment, the young earl's face could not see his mood at all, and his indifferent gaze was like a lion waiting to hunt, looking for the weakness of his prey, waiting for the moment when it relaxed.

Levin got up from his chair and looked at the nobles who were still trembling: "Your timely arrival has enabled us to defeat the rebellious thugs and achieve a rare victory!"

The nobles, who had been nervous, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and their stiff faces showed a false smirk to cater to the young earl.

"But before we can do that, we must first end this riot and bring the real culprits to justice. The earl's words changed: "Otherwise, we will be sorry for those soldiers who died in vain, and we must not let those traitors go unpunished while we are still crying for the dead!"

"For this reason, I want you to meet someone, someone you all know. The expressionless Levin looked back and nodded to the wizard advisor behind him: "Bring him here, so that all the adults can see him." ”

Loren saluted slightly, a smile on his lips, and walked to the room on the side of the hall. Eyes were fixed on the door, and even Barry Senna couldn't help but look at it.

When the black-haired wizard walked out from behind the door, the old man, who had been able to maintain his composure, widened his eyes in shock.

Will Senna?!

The attendant walked into the hall step by step, his eyes glazed and sallow, his slightly open lips trembling and unable to close, staggering as if he would fall to the ground at any moment.

What the hell is going on, what happened last night?!, the panicked old man's eyes kept scanning back and forth over Will and Lewen's faces, hoping to find some hidden clues.

Even if Will died, it wouldn't have shocked Barry like this!

"Will Senna, my squire. Lu Wen, who gritted his teeth, said almost word by word: "Tell your lords, who planned this rebellion?"

Will, who looked sluggish, raised his right hand very slowly, and his trembling index finger slowly straightened, pointing at the shocked old man standing in front of him, Barry Senna.

"Lord Earl, I am wronged ......"

"Shut up!" an angry Levin snarled as he interrupted Barry Senna's words, staring at the old man's face with an almost fire-breathing gaze, gritting his teeth and saying, "Shut up! Kneel down for me, Barry Senna!"

Trembling, Barry hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to bend his knee - since he had already lost, then there was no dignity at all, and there was no way to endure humiliation.

"And you, the adults of the Deep Forest Castle, don't you think you're clean, and I won't do anything to you, right?"

Before Ruben could finish his words, the nobles hiding behind had collapsed to the ground.

"I thought for a long time about the punishment of those who betrayed me. The young Earl smiled a creepy smile to the nobles, "And my wizarding advisor tells me that the honorable Lord Barry Senna has made a very interesting suggestion. ”

The old man froze.

"They must be punished severely, deprived of their titles and lands, so that these traitors can get the fate they deserve...... I couldn't agree more with him, it's a good idea!"

"Wait, wait for Lord Earl!" quickly shouted Barry Senna, who was kneeling on the ground, nervous and even a little incoherent, "We have all been wronged, and we have nothing to do with this rebellion!"

"It's all him, it's Will Cena, and he has a grudge against you! It was you who robbed him of the opportunity to inherit the title of earl, that's why he did such a thing, and whatever he said, it must be a lie told by this vile villain to live happily, and everything has nothing to do with the Senna family!"

"That's right, we are all your loyal courtiers, how could we betray you?!"

"It's all him, it's he who instigated the rebellion of those thugs!"

"You have to trust us, it has nothing to do with us!"

...... The unscrupulous aristocrats also quickly defended themselves, put all the blame on Will Cena, and desperately tried to clear themselves.

The only pity is that Leuven Fried didn't believe it at all.

"I will follow the advice of Lord Barry Senna to punish you for your crimes. Lu Wen's expression was indescribably happy: "Let you get the end you deserve!"

As if he hadn't heard what he said, Barry Senna slowly straightened up, and his face no longer had the look of horror he had just faced.

"It's too early to say that, Lord Reuven Fried. ”

"You seem to have forgotten that the defenses of the Deep Grove are in our hands. At the slightest movement in the hall, the soldiers outside would rush in. The old man calmly looked at the earl, "When the time comes, how long will your guard knights be able to hold out?"

"Why don't you all stay calm and sane, and we're willing to surrender to you and pay some price, so it's good for everyone, don't you say?"

"Nice offer, but what I want is not to make you pay something. Lu Wen sneered: "What I want is to become the real Earl of Shenlin Castle, so I will not compromise with any traitor!"

Loren, who was standing behind the Count, waved his wand lightly and opened the closed door. Sir Aaron, dressed in a dark coat, rushed directly into the hall with dozens of knights of the Duchy of Lothair in a pair of desperate eyes.

"Earl, I beg your pardon for being late—!"
