Chapter 16: The Old Duke Who Misleads Friendly Forces

In the courtyard of the manor, King Tie Yu glanced at Su Xiao in the castle, smiled, and reflexively walked into the darkness, he was too old, too old to want to participate in the power system of the empire, as long as the Northern Alliance and the abyss forces did not attack, he would not show up, after all, every time he made a move, it would make him one step closer to death.

"This country will soon perish, and the Iron Feather King will not be able to hold on."

Ursula looked at the back of the Iron Feather King, who had once been the strongest, and was old enough to be noticed by her.

Ursula vaguely remembered that because the Abyss Serpent had bewitched the high-level of the Sierra Empire, the Iron Feather King jumped into the abyss alone, fought with the Abyss Serpent for two days, and finally blinded one eye of the Abyss Serpent.

"Honestly lying in the abyss, you reptile."

Ursula, who was watching the battle at the beginning, also heard this, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to leave the abyss for decades, the Iron Feather King was too domineering.

The current Iron Feather King is dying, the hero is in the twilight, no one knows how long he can continue to protect this empire, maybe tomorrow he will die of old age, at that time, all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods will jump out.

Looking at the Iron Feather King who was walking away, Su Xiao thought of a possibility, that is, the gods would choose to strike now, most likely because the Iron Feather King would not be able to hold on, and the gods would want to completely seize the power of the empire before the death of the Iron Feather King, so as to fight against the Northern Alliance.

"I had a hunch that we wouldn't see each other again, so... Farewell! ”

Ursula jumped out of the window and said the most cowardly words in the toughest tone.

Su Xiao thought for a moment and decided not to make a move for the time being, this movable soul coin was not hostile to him, and it was not wise to alarm the abyss forces at the moment.

The assassination of the Congregation of the Gods tonight was particularly interesting, and among the groups of people who came, the Twelve were the most dish.

After determining the strength of the twelve, the old duke's suspicion in Su Xiao's heart dropped significantly, because the old duke had confronted him, and if he wanted to kill him, he would not send such a beep assassin, as for those few Death Paradise contractors, they were slaughtered by the Iron Feather King, yes, it was easy.

The old duke's emblem is the Serpent of the Abyss, and more importantly, he is the first target of assassination, which may also be seen as his desire to hide after death?

That night, the old duke did not fortify the manor at all, but afterwards, he admitted that he knew that someone would come to assassinate him, which was undoubtedly taking the initiative to pull hatred, which was also something that Su Xiao had never figured out.

There are many inconsistencies in the old duke's behavior, and with the old guy's old, it is unlikely that so many flaws should be exposed.

Thinking of this, the old duke's suspicion was greatly reduced.

Su Xiao thought about it with a little headache, so he decided to use the elimination method to assassinate the dukes one by one, there were only four in total, and the probability of a quarter was easy to win.

Su Xiao pushed open the bedroom door, he had just heard the sound of a fight inside, but it was over quickly.

As soon as he pushed open the door, Su Xiao saw that Eminem was sitting on something, and Baha and Bubuwang were not there.

Su Xiao stepped forward, and Eminem immediately stood up, revealing an iron-like smile.

"Eminem, captured, enemy."

Eminem points to the mass on the ground, a male Assassin.

“……”

"Eminem, I'm hungry."

"Hungry."

Su Xiao picked up the male assassin on the ground, this person had a large fracture all over his body, and the cause of death was suffocation, which was sat to death by Eminem.

"Eminem, I'm hungry."

Eminem opened his mouth with a loud urn.

"Next time pay attention to the vital signs of the enemy, there will be a supper in an hour."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Eminem, who had just been a little lost, became happy again, it was so easy to be satisfied.

When Bubuwang and Baha returned, Su Xiao had already asked the servants of the manor to prepare supper, which was a full two hundred people.

After a simple supper, Su Xiao entered a bedroom to take a nap, waiting for a possible second wave of assassinations.

Until the early morning of the next day, Su Xiao was not assassinated again, and there was a knock on the door.

"Lord Kukulin, Lord Alf has an urgent matter to find you, and I have asked you to meet you at the Holy Court."

One of the servants left these words outside the door and walked away quickly.

Su Xiao sat up from the bed, washed up, and rushed to the Holy Court.

An hour later, the Holy See, the inner sanctum.

There was only the old duke sitting in front of the round table, and he was snorting from time to time, probably because he hadn't rested well in the past few days.

"Something?"

Su Xiao sat on the seat belonging to Duke Bailong.

"Kukulin, the people over there, I assassinated you last night."

"That's right."

"Hey~"

The old duke sighed.

"What information did you find? I might be able to help you, unexpectedly. ”

“……”

Su Xiao didn't speak, and when he noticed this, the old duke sighed again.

"The most unlucky thing in my life is to be found by you, hahaha...... It turns out that the dukedom can also be snatched hard, and I never considered this possibility before you appeared. ”

The old duke seemed to be gossiping, but in fact, he was worried about something.

"The gods will ...... I formed it. ”

The old duke looked sideways at Su Xiao, and the old face was still smiling.

"Oh? Tell me so easily? ”

"You!"

The old duke was a little angry, and after a moment, he sighed again.

"With your ability, you will soon find out that the leader of the Society of Gods is among us, Lao Tzu is worried that you bastard will directly assassinate me after investigating that the Society of Gods was formed by me!"

The old duke glared at Su Xiao, his cheeks twitching.

"How so."

"Absolutely, if you find out that the gods will belong to a certain duke, you will slaughter us one by one, are you right, Kukurin."

"I'm worried about it."

"No, you'll do it, absolutely."

"Oh."

Hearing Su Xiao's last 'oh', the old duke had the urge to jump up and beat people, he was willing to take the initiative to admit that he was worried, worried that Su Xiao's investigation of the gods would be related to the duke, and he would assassinate the duke one by one, and the one who died would be called unjust.

"That was more than fifty years ago, an old guy who had just lost his wife, after discussing with someone, learned that that person couldn't hold on for too long, and could no longer protect this empire for a hundred years, so he twitched his head and formed a bullshit society of gods, in the name of the gods, adjudicating those high-ranking but inactive saint dukes, advocating never betrayal, never killing innocents, that's right, that idiot is me."

When the old duke said this, he seemed to want to slap himself at any moment

"At that time, I must have been bewitched by the abyss, after all, I and that snake can be regarded as 'old friends', and its occasional bewitchment of me can only be regarded as a greeting between 'old friends'."

"So?"

"Listen to me."

The old duke lowered his eyes and continued:

"About ten years ago, the angry lion noticed the existence of the Gods' Society, that guy was very angry, like an angry lion, he led the army to destroy the Gods' Society, this is the 'Immortal Widow' incident that was circulating at that time, the cause of that incident was not because of the wine called 'Crimson Gift', the angry lion just needed a reason at that time, the angry lion, the moon wolf, the white dragon, and Li Lin were hostile to me, and this is also the reason, if it wasn't for my seniority being too old, they would have jointly ruled against me, besides, the original gods would, It's just a concept, I haven't trained assassins. ”

According to the old duke, the Gods should be destroyed, but it still exists.

"What's even more incredible to me is that the Gods Society actually appeared some time ago, I immediately thought that it was the angry lion who did it, he didn't completely exterminate the Gods more than ten years ago, but he died the next morning, I investigated for this, he was indeed dead, I also tried to put his leg bones in a pot to cook, it must be the leg bones of the angry lion, which I guarantee with my life."

"Li Lin."

Su Xiao suddenly interrupted the old duke's words.

"Yes, Li Lin, the Iron Feather King's time is running out, Li Lin is going crazy, the night we met, it was Li Lin who wanted to kill me, but I noticed it, and the forerunner drove away the assassin hidden in the guard."

When the old duke said this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was really worried that Su Xiao would find him at night and cut him into hundreds of pieces while he was sleeping.

Su Xiao's previous speculation was not wrong, the old duke was indeed related to the Society of Gods, after all, the Society of Gods was formed by him.

The old duke successfully misled the friendly army, so as to cover the enemy, and because of this, Su Xiao felt that the old duke was the most suspicious, Li Lin was the least suspicious, and the old duke's hatred was a perfect score.

Last night, Su Xiao felt that the old duke's behavior was contradictory, and this is the reason, this old guy formed the Society of Gods, but was exterminated by the Duke of the Angry Lion, allowing Li Lin to take advantage of it.

However, the old duke had already realized that he had misled the friendly army, so he immediately made an appointment with Su Xiao to avoid being assassinated by the angry friendly army, which was too unjust.

"The smartest among us, Duke Bailong, found out that Li Lin was wrong, so he died this morning, and last night, he secretly sent someone to bring me this thing."

The old duke took out a branch from his arms, in this world, there is a tree called the Dawn Tree, which represents light and notarization, and the Dawn Tree, which is the emblem of the Duke of Lilin.
