Chapter 205: A True Legend
At the Morel family meeting, a lot of evidence about Passas's collusion with the abyss and the crime was put on the table. It seems to be a trial between nobles, but in fact, the on-site political and political confrontation is extremely meaningful.
Every piece of evidence needs to be argued over and over again before it can be confirmed and used. The success or failure of this meeting is related to the reshuffle of power within the Morel family. Only when the internal relationship is clarified and then the future development of the family is meaningful.
"Madame Wen Li, the evidence you provided carries too much subjective suspicion."
"Such a ledger, you said it was deciphered, then how did you decipher it, it's just a bunch of code, how to confirm that one of them is Passas?" A knight close to Passas asked with a look of suspicion.
Wen Li knew that everyone would have such doubts, and said: "First of all, I admit that the decipherment of this special ledger did not come from my own hands. But I can attest to its authority. ”
After speaking, Wen Li ordered someone to take another thin piece of paper: "This is the material I obtained from the city defense army using my connections, and some evidence provided by a viscount named Clément. After saying this, Wen Li looked at Allen, this Viscount Clément was the nobleman who had been sending people to follow Allen for some time before.
A few days ago, after Alan spoke to Avalo, Wen Li immediately dispatched men to counter-track the trackers and found Viscount Clément in one fell swoop. When the Golden City suffered a ghost catastrophe and the abyss was in the dust, Wen Li's forces joined forces with the city defense army to take Clement in one fell swoop. And a large amount of relevant evidence was found in the Clément family.
In return, the search party in the Golden City provided the Earl with some evidence in private, including how the secret ledger was cracked. Clement's confessions, etc., these materials, repeatedly pointed the finger at Passas. Of course, Wen Li also knew that the real source of this mysterious ledger was actually her lovely guardian knight. But. The topic comes to the convoy, and it is enough.
"I believe everyone has seen these materials in front of me." Mrs. Wen Li said expressionlessly, "This is a very serious matter, may I ask everyone present, if the searchers of the Golden City come to my Morel Mansion with this evidence, will we stop them, or not?" ”
Silent. No one answered.
I have to say, this is a very important copy. It is also a very critical material, as soon as a few materials came out, the venue was quiet again, and several knights and knights who had been supporting Passas were also dumbfounded at this time.
There was a long time of embarrassment in the venue, and no one was willing to continue to answer.
Third-Order Mage Marcel looked at everyone, and naturally felt that the situation was wrong, but he thought in his heart. No, it can't go on like this. I have offended Wen Li today, and everyone knows that I am on the side of Passas, and now if Wen Li is in power, and Passas is indeed grossly wrong, I will be in an awkward position.
As a last resort, Marcel could only continue to speak: "At present, the origin and credibility of this evidence have yet to be investigated. One of the most important things these days is, where is Passas. Marcel was clever enough to deny the reliability of the evidence without waiting for everyone to discuss it, in a vain attempt to quickly shift the focus.
Alan heard this. Smiling coldly, he didn't say anything, the current confrontation was within the imaginary range, and Alan quietly waited for Mrs. Wen Li's counterattack. In fact, Ellen didn't have anything else to prepare today, except for bringing a Passas confession. It's just that according to the current atmosphere in the venue, I now take out a confession, that is, a fluttering piece of paper, and maybe I will be labeled as "tortured to extract a confession, and the origin is not correct".
If she makes trouble now, it won't help Mrs. Wen Li much.
Alan is a rational and intelligent person, and likes to act through careful layout, and for today's Morel family meeting, Alan came in a hurry, and really didn't prepare too many things. However, Lady Wen Li is obviously well prepared, and as a wise man, Allen's arrival today is not to increase the strength of Lady Wen Li in verbal arguments.
Looking at the ice spider in his hand, as well as the ash assassin hiding in the dark, Allen showed a cold smile on his face, Mrs. Wen Li's wrist is enough, the reason why there is no way to completely grasp the direction of the Morel family is that the main reason is that Mrs. Wen Li's lineage is not enough combat ability, and today Alan came to let everyone feel the true strength of Mrs. Wen Li's side again.
Force is not the best way to solve problems, but many times, it works.
When necessary, Alan doesn't mind showing his abilities to others.
It was at this moment that Mrs. Wen Li spoke.
In response to Marcel's questioning, Madame Wen Li replied: "You suspect that my material is useless, and you plan to qualify it like this?" ”
"This ......" Marcel hesitated for a while, waited for a long time, and looked at everyone present, all of them lowered their heads and were silent, even the quasi-legendary knight who had helped Alan before was silent at the moment.
Well, Wen Li didn't have a helper.
Marcel had such a judgment in mind.
So Marcel had a little more courage, and this matter could only be held up, not loosened.
Marcel said: "Yes! The evidence is too fragmentary to directly prove what Passas did wrong. ”
Hearing this, Wen Li sneered, and the next sentence immediately caused the atmosphere in the venue to drop to freezing point.
"Very well, to tell you the truth, these materials were intercepted from the city defense team at the cost of thousands of gold coins, and if you think it is useless, then I will hand these things over to the city defense team in exchange for my own money. I've done enough for the reputation of the Morel family. ”
Wen Li said with some reluctance and grievance: "Why do you think the city defense army hasn't found our Morel family for so long?" Have you ever thought about how much effort I've put into this? Marcel, why don't you say Passas shows up yet? The City of Gold is staring at it, and if Passas shows up, he is afraid that he will be arrested directly. How will the reputation of my Morel family be restored then? ”
Two simple sentences made the members of the Morel family, who had originally lowered their heads, raise their heads.
What is it to return the materials to the City of Gold. At the moment, everyone is in front of Wen Li, although they want to sit down on the matter of "these materials are useless", but everyone knows that this thing is destructive to the Morel family. It's too late to destroy, how can you hand it over again!
Wen Li's reversal attracted everyone's attention, and when she looked at Wen Li, she found that the countess had an angry face and tears in her eyes.
Speaking of which. The men of the Morel family have indeed gone too far in this matter, and Wen Li's counterattack is effective, so the situation can only be changed.
At this time, one of the legends of the Morel family, the swordsman Baudouin, said: "Wen Li, you are biased when you say this, we can solve this matter internally, so why bother to make a noise outside." ”
Madame Wen Li glanced at Baudouin and smiled coldly: "Since you think that my material is invalid, that is what I say. It's all in vain, so what is there to talk about? Wen Li knew that Baudouin had a close relationship with Passas, and in the past few years, if it were not for the support of this legendary swordsman, Passas would not have risen rapidly as a mere baron.
Seeing that Wen Li's mood was getting worse and worse, she was about to lift the table and leave. Another legendary adventurer, Brie, couldn't sit still either, and said, "Wen Li. No one says your material can't be used, it's just up for debate. ”
These words were half appeased, and then suppressed.
Not only Wen Li, but Alan was also quite dissatisfied when he heard it.
"Now. Let's vote, 21 votes on the spot, as long as more than a third of the people believe that Passas is not guilty, they will be released, and we will handle this matter internally. What to do, besides, Wen Li, you can't control people all the time. In order not to give Wen Li a chance to continue pestering, the swordsman Baudouin directly presided over the agenda of the meeting.
What the! Hearing this, Wen Liwu was shocked. As long as more than a third of the people disagree, they have to release themselves, what is the reason, and if so, why put out so much evidence this night. Now there are at least sixteen or seventeen supporters of Passas!
It turns out that in your eyes, I am still a puppet. Wen Li felt very angry and frustrated, and finally lowered her head, for a long, long time, seemed to sob a little, and suddenly raised her head to look at Alan helplessly.
This little knight of her own, is Wen Li's last chance to turn the tables.
Alan noticed Mrs. Wen Li's gaze for help, and felt a little distressed in his heart, although Wen Li was his lord, but in fact, between the two, Alan was the real powerhouse, at least the person who could be relied on psychologically.
Meeting Mrs. Wen Li's gaze, Allen, who had been silent all night, finally began to speak.
"I don't think there was a need for a vote on this matter, the crime of Passas is very clear, and the hanging should be dealt with immediately."
As soon as these words came out, there was an immediate uproar in the venue. In the Morel family, Allen's status is still too low, and these words are very harsh to the ears of the noble sir.
"What are you! Dare to meddle in the affairs of my Morel family? Baudouin's proposal for a vote has already been regarded as giving Wen Li face, through the vote, the Morel family can at least appease Wen Li, there is no consensus on this matter, and if Wen Li is given some resources, this matter will be dealt with.
Although the reputation of the abyss forces is stinky at the moment, this kind of thing, internal punishment is good, and it is already intolerable to detain people privately, and they still want to be hanged? Passas is the one who the Morel family has always confirmed that he will take over the throne in the future, and after this battle, Passas's future is gone, but he can't just kill him.
Baudouin is the elder of the family, basically controlling most of the council's resources with one hand, and now that he is proposing to vote, the people within the Morel family have not yet spoken, and this little first-order warlock dares to make trouble? Baudouin instantly felt like he had been slapped in the face.
Alan walked over to the table, looked at everyone present, and nodded at every malicious look.
"I don't want to meddle in the internal affairs of the Morel family, but as the guardian knight of Lady Wen Li, I must protect my lord from being violated." Alan was straight to the point.
"Stupid bastard thing!"
There was nothing wrong with what Allen said. But Baudouin couldn't sit still. A powerful swordsman's aura rose from his body, and the next moment, a sword light shot out, and it was actually close to Mrs. Wen Li, passing by, directly facing Allen's façade. If you don't agree with each other, you can shoot directly?
Turned the other cheek!
Scold! Alan smiled coldly, facing the sword light, he didn't hide, a small ice spirit crossed in front of Allen, and the sword light had disappeared.
In the next second, the legendary assassin suddenly stood up from his seat in surprise, and a black figure had already appeared behind him, it was the ash assassin who had been missing a trace.
"It's not that entering the legend means that a person has reached the top."
"Today, you will see what a true legend is." Alan looked at everyone present, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, just for a short moment, a huge pressure, like a mountain, pressed on everyone's hearts, and finally, no one took his words as wind in their ears.
