Chapter 126: Plan to force the palace
Elder Dilar, Lv.27, of the Shepherd bloodline, majoring in "Plants".
As the name suggests, it is a transcendent person who throws all his abilities into plants, and in the environment of the Lusitanian Forest, he is like a fish in water, and can exert 120% of his strength.
As a result, the few remaining councillors sat in the drawing room in trepidation, waiting for Elder Dilal to return from outside.
Speaker Grace is dead, and so is Councillor Glendale...... Although there is a lot of evidence that it was the hand of the undead, almost all of the dead were from the conservative side, and the fool knows that there is definitely something in it.
Ah, maybe it's the one sitting on the throne who has made a despicable pact with the undead in private! This damn half-elf traitor!
So everyone scolded the half-elf queen, and very tacitly ignored that it was these traditional councillors who first colluded with the royal family of Aragon.
"Elder Dilal is really calm!" Gradually, some councillors shifted their grievances to the master who never showed up, "Elder Grayn has been with him for more than 20 years, but now he is dying on the street for no apparent reason, can he actually bear it?" β
"Say a few words, Donkson!" Another councillor hurriedly persuaded him, "Now no one can stop him except Elder Dilar!" β
That's quite true. In the transcendent world, even the political upper echelons of the half-elves speak with strength after all.
Now Her Majesty's side of the transcendent is even better, using insidious assassination methods to almost kill the traditionalists, which means that even if the traditionalists tear their faces and openly carry out a coup d'Γ©tat, I am afraid they will not be able to win against Her Majesty's side.
In this case, of course, everyone can only gather around the strongest combat force in the camp, that is, the demigod Elder Dilar, otherwise wait to be swept away by Her Majesty's transcendental beings?
As time passed, the parliamentarians became more and more restless. It was now nearly night, and Elder Dilal still showed no sign of returning, which made everyone a little anxious and panicked, for fear that someone would break down the door and hang them all and pull them away.
Fortunately, Elder Dilal didn't make them wait long. A few minutes later, a plant burst out of the wooden floor, and in an instant it sprouted from a young shoot into a huge vine and flower bones.
Then the petals spread out one by one, and Elder Dilal, dressed in robes, walked out of it.
This is his "Root Web" ability, which allows him to quickly move through the root system that spreads all over the ground and then break through the ground from any plant.
In a desert environment, this skill is a garbage, but in the fertile forest terrain, it is simply a magic skill, and it is not inferior to the black hole law that is good at spatial movement.
"I've just contacted the Aragonese royal family." Elder Dilar looked around at the three councillors in the hall, slammed the ancient vine cane on the floor, and said, "According to their information, it should be a mercenary team called the 'Azure Sword' who assassinated it, and it was the bull mercenary group behind it. β
"The Azure Sword?" The three MPs looked at each other.
Of course they know about the Bull Mercenary Group, the largest mercenary group in the Iberian Peninsula. But the blue sword...... Where did the ragtag wild group come out?
"They're not some ragtags!" Seeing the disapproval of the councillors, Elder Dilal immediately threw down his crutches and shouted, "They have a very close relationship with the Holy See, and even spent four months in Italy and the Peninsula to help the Holy See solve the Spiritual Tree mutation!" β
The Spiritual Tree is mutated? What is this again? Although the councillors had not heard of this term, it was natural to imagine how murderous it was for even the Holy See to help solve.
And to be able to help the Holy See solve the mutation, this mercenary group naturally can't be a miscellaneous group.
"Wait." One of the councillors suddenly said, "The Sword of Azure...... I've heard this name, isn't it the human mercenary group who was imprisoned for murder? β
When they said this, everyone reacted immediately. There was indeed such a mercenary group before, claiming to have come to deliver a letter on behalf of the bull mercenary group, asking for help from the half-elves of Lusitania.
As a result, the conservatives used knives to kill people, and carefully designed and planted a murder charge on their heads, thus successfully inciting and stirring up the anger of the half-elves. For a while, the hostility of the entire society towards the outside world reached its peak, resulting in several "open bills" recently proposed by the person on the throne, which were also voted against by the half-elf council, and ended without a hitch.
It can be said that it is the most wonderful move made by conservatives.
As a result, they are now told that it was this "chess piece that seems to be at your mercy" that killed two-thirds of your personnel?
However, considering the clues provided by the Aragonese royal family, and their record of helping the Holy See solve the mutation, this human mercenary group is clearly not the kind of person to be trapped by an arrest warrant and a prison!
"In that case!" One of the councillors immediately reacted, "That's going to be easy!" β
"Since it is actually their hands, then whether it is through tunnels, extraordinary powers, or collusion with the prison party, there must be a way to quietly leave the prison. As long as we send people to monitor them 24 hours a day, they will either not be able to leave, or they will have to escape openly. β
"If they choose to escape, we can declare them fugitives and mobilize all our forces to hunt them down, not even the one on the throne can interfere in this matter!"
The other MPs nodded their heads. Everyone was afraid of assassination before, completely because they were in the open and the other party was in the dark, and they couldn't even find who the murderer was, so of course there was no way to fight back.
However, now that I know that there is a high probability that it is the ghost of the human mercenary group, as the upper echelons of the half-elf society, of course, there are countless ways to manipulate each other.
"I heard that Her Majesty has been in prison all day today." Elder Dilar pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "In that case, we can go directly to the prison to meet His Majesty and ask about the progress of the case. β
"If Your Majesty refuses to let go, we will hold on to the murder case and stir up public resentment, and ask Your Majesty to put pressure on her to punish her severely, so that she can save the lives of these human mercenaries in exchange for our people to be stationed in the prison to guard, and then wait for the opportunity to move."
"What if Your Majesty tears his face with us and goes to war with us directly in prison?" Some lawmakers said worriedly. Even the political assassination has been made, you said that it is safe to go directly to see Her Majesty, how can you believe it 100%!
"Hmph, with me here, what are you afraid of?" Elder Dilal snorted coldly.
The parliamentarians looked at each other and immediately relaxed.
As an elder who majored in the law of plants, Elder Dalal was almost invincible in this large forest, even if he faced a large number of powerful enemies of the high ranks, and he couldn't defeat the other party, it would definitely not be a problem to protect the three of them from evacuating.
Moreover, it is impossible for Her Majesty to do this, and openly attacking Elder Dilal and the three councillors will undoubtedly greatly dampen the political prestige of the royal family. Isn't it because she's been using secret assassination methods before, and she's going to blame the undead for the matter?
Thinking of this, everyone immediately agreed, and decided to follow Elder Dilar directly to the prison and ask to see His Majesty openly.
