Chapter 109: Furious Varian (Thanks to VoidField for the tip)
"On the order of the Queen Regent, the rebels in the fortress will be hanged, and all those who resist, including the nobles, will be treated as treason and killed on the spot!"
Amid the roar of the soldiers, another nobleman ordered his guards to lay down their arms.
This slogan is not just words.
Normally, killing the nobles will cause extremely bad political effects, but today the situation is different after all, how can a coup d'Γ©tat be bloodless, and it is normal to lose a few weighty heads, and as for other possible concerns, Claudia plans to give up her rights to see the situation disappear, and she doesn't care what her relationship with the nobles will be in the future.
In this case, when at first a baron tried to resist by virtue of his status and was besieged and hacked to death on the spot, most of the nobles behind were well aware of the situation, and surrendered on their knees with their guards, and Claudia and his party advanced extremely quickly.
In the final analysis, in the eyes of these nobles, this is a family affair of the royal family, and they can't afford to take their lives under the extremely unfavorable situation.
As early as the moment when Claudia blew the horn at the gate of Baron Raglan Raglan attacking the city gate of Stormwind Fortress, in the king's bedroom, Varian, who was sleeping, immediately sat up and said with a stern face: "This horn sounds, it looks like a foreign enemy is attacking Stormwind Fortress?" β
"Don't worry, Varian," a soft female voice responded to him, and a disheveled Katrana slowly got up from behind Varian and smiled, "I guess it's the same as last night, it's the thieves who are making trouble again, I'll help you deal with it." β
Varian said with a puzzled face, "But I listened to Anduin during the day, it was actually the Black Iron Dwarves who attacked Stormstorm Fortress last night, and he also said that the woman named Claudia was not a witch, and Barathan ......"
"Varian," Katrana looked at Varian seriously, interrupting his next words with a smile, "Anduin is just a child, he doesn't understand anything, will you listen to me?" β
Varian instantly forgot all his doubts, he nodded, and said with a smile: "You're right, Katrana, Anduin is still a child, you let the guards go and see first, if not, I'll solve it myself." β
When Katrana walked out of the room, her face immediately changed, and her face became extremely hideous, and she ordered the guards on the left and right:
"Go, find out what's going on, and be optimistic about Angela and Anduin, the two little cubs, don't let the group of mice in MI7 pick up the cheap again."
In the face of such disrespectful titles, the two guards took it for granted, and said, "Yes, ma'am." β
The guards moved quickly, and it wasn't long before Katrana learned the shocking truth.
How could it be, how did she do it?
Katrana was stunned, according to the pre-estimate, Claudia should still be eating sand in Silisus, Catlana really didn't know what could be done to get Claudia to come back so soon.
Either way, Claudia is back now, which greatly disrupts Catlana's plans, and in this case, she can only hope that the last hole card will have an effect.
Katrana ordered, "Quick, drag that little kid Angela over, we'll meet in the throne hall." β
One of the guards turned away in response, while Katrana herself gathered the guards and walked towards the throne hall, and soon in the hall the guard came with a weeping Angela and Kanressad, and the guard said, "Ma'am, a mouse has just tried to snatch Angela, and it was the baron who drove the mouse away." β
Katrana smiled back with a graceful salute, and then she began to check on the crying Angela, and found that there was no sign of magical transformation, indicating that she was not an imposter, which made Katrana feel a lot more relieved again, she took out a dagger and pointed it at Angela's neck, waiting for Claudia to arrive.
The noise and the shouts of the soldiers were getting closer, and even Varian in the dormitory heard it.
"Queen Regent? Isn't that the witch Katrana was talking about? β
Varian walked to the window and looked out, where he saw the silver-armored blonde woman, Marshal Windsor, Gianna and Marcus beside her, and the royal knights attacking his castle.
This made Varian indignant, this is his fortress, this is his palace, what did he do wrong? Why should those faithful courtiers commit the following offenses at this moment?
Was it really the witch who had taken control of her, as Katrana said?
Varian didn't think so, although he didn't recognize Claudia, but he knew Gianna, in his memory, Gianna was already an archmage at that time, and had a close relationship with Kenrito, could that witch have such a powerful power to brainwash the archmage for so many years and even fight against the entire Kenrito?
Varian put on his armor, took up his weapon, and walked towards the throne hall, he planned to confront Gianna and the witch face to face, even if it was a gentle and kind Varian, in this case, he could not hide in the bedroom until someone finally carried him out like a lost dog.
Claudia arrived in the hall just a little earlier than Varian.
When Claudia stepped into the hall surrounded by soldiers, she scanned the hall coldly, and finally stopped on Angela in Catlana's arms, and whispered softly to Gianna with a slight side face.
While Claudia was observing Catlana, Katrana was also observing Claudia.
For some reason, she always felt that Claudia had something like a shadow life, but she quickly dismissed it as her own delusion and turned her attention to something else.
Claudia's gaze was fixed on Angela, which showed that the hostage was effective.
After discovering this, Katrana couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, and said with a smile: "Let's have a good talk, Claudia, now your daughter is in my hands......"
"Katrana, what are you doing!" Varian's roar interrupted Katrana's next words, and he was stepping out of the rear, his eyes burning with a dangerous fire, like a lion that had chosen to devour.
Seeing Varian appear, Claudia's eyes lit up at once, and all her attention was on Varian, and in the psychic connection, Gianna was constantly discussing.
"I don't think there's a problem, how about it, what do you think?" Gianna asked.
Claudia was uncertain, "The body is the same as Varian's, and the soul breath is almost the same, but it seems to be missing something, a strange feeling, and the angry look is very similar, but Varian's clothes and hairstyle are a little too beautiful compared to his usual preferences." β
"Speaking of clothing and hairstyles, I've heard rumors that Varian did seem to like beautiful outfits before fleeing to Lordaeron......"
In the midst of the conversation between the two of them, the quarrel between Varian and Katrana continues.
Katrana smiled: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, this witch will be left to me to deal with......"
"Shut up!" Varian yelled, "What I'm asking you is, why are you pointing a knife at my daughter!" β
Katrana's smile froze, but she quickly smiled again and tried to hypnotize the other party: "Your Majesty, this is not your daughter, it is the witch who fornicated with someone else when she was the queen......"
For the first time in more than half a year, Catlana's invincible hypnosis failed, and Varian did forget a lot of things for a moment as before, but when he saw Angela again, he remembered again, and he raised his sword to Catlana and shouted:
"Stop lying, Katrana! I may not remember many things, but I still won't admit that it's not my biological child, Barasson and Angela are my biological children, now, let go of my daughter, or I'm welcome! β
