Chapter 308: Assassination of Dice Hepburn
"So has Brother Allen ever seen a dragon?"
"I've seen it!"
"I'd also like to see a real dragon. ”
The little guy tilted his head to look at Allen, his eyes full of longing.
"I don't dare to promise you, I'm going to ask your father's opinion first. ”
Alan understands little Alba's mood very well, and he himself dreams of exploring the outside world at this age, not to mention that little Alba's childhood is much more lonely than his own.
"He won't say yes. He always used his ancestors as an excuse, saying that if I left Yuewan Village and went to the outside world, I would be killed. ”
The little one said sullenly.
There are some prophecies left by the ancestors in Yuewan Village, and Alan knows two of them, one is about the Levens family, the prophecy says that if the descendants of the Levens family set foot outside the mountain, it will bring bloody rain to the continent, and the other is about the Alba family, the prophecy says that if the descendants of the Alba family set foot on the continent, they will be killed. When he first heard these prophecies, Alan scoffed at them as nonsense, but after a trip to the Elven Forest, he wavered. But after so many years, Steven has been fine in Aogucheng, not to mention what bloody rain has been set off, except for revenge, he has not even harmed anyone, but took out the gold coins that should have belonged to him to Isha to relieve the refugees, so Alan gradually stopped caring about it. However, whether Alan believes it or not, Uncle Alba has always adhered to the prophecy left by his ancestors and did not dare to let his son leave Yuewan Village for a long time, which is also something that little Alba feels more and more depressed as he grows older.
"I believe Brother Allen, when one day no one dares to bully you, I will take you to see the outside world. ”
"You have to talk and count. ”
"When did Brother Allen lie to you?"
"We pull the hook. ”
Little Alba stretched out his little fingers, his big eyes blinking, full of anticipation.
"Good!"
Alan also held out his finger. So on the hillside above the peach forest, two men, one big and one small, seriously pulled up the hook.
"Would you like to eat the grilled fish made by Brother Allen?"
"Yes!"
"Let's go, let's go fishing. ”
Alan strode towards Moon Bay Lake upstream, followed by little Alba, who was bouncing and full of joy.
Early the next morning, while little Alba was still asleep, Alan said goodbye to Uncle Alba and embarked on the return journey in a magic spaceship. While passing through the outskirts of the ancient city of Ao, Alan disembarked and entered the city alone, wanting to stop by to see Steven.
However, Alan had only been at Steven's house for less than two hours before the servant came in and told him that someone from Ogu Castle had invited Alan to see Holland.
"Alan, you're finally here, I've been waiting for you for almost two weeks. ”
Seeing Alan appear at the door of the living room, Hollanster greeted him with a big smile and gave Alan an excited hug, since Alan became the chief mage of the city-state, Hollanster had not shown such a warm side for a long time, which made him feel a little unnatural.
"I went back to Yuewan Village to pay tribute to my deceased relatives. ”
Alan explained.
"Alan, you've always been so affectionate, I'm not wrong about you. ”
Holland put his arm around Allen's shoulders and walked over to his seat and asked him to sit down.
"My lord, is there anything important about looking for me in such a hurry?"
Alan always felt that there was an intriguing meaning behind Hollander's enthusiasm.
"You guessed it. There is indeed an important event, and as soon as this is done, the power of the Holy See will immediately fall apart. When the time comes, our plan to destroy the Holy See will be easy to see. ”
When it came to business, Holland's smile disappeared and his expression became solemn.
"What the hell is going on?"
Seeing Holland's solemn attitude, Allen's curiosity was also aroused, and he couldn't think of anything that could cause the powerful Holy See to suffer a serious setback.
"During your absence, the Mercenary Guild received a secret mission from a nobleman in a small southern country. That nobleman was originally a southern nobleman, but when the Holy See invaded, his power suffered a heavy blow, and his relatives were also slaughtered, and in the end, he was the only one left, and in order to save his life, he could only choose to compromise and swear allegiance to the Holy See. But he did not forget for a moment the calamity and pain that the Holy See had brought to him and his family, and he endured humiliation and secretly lived in order to take revenge. Finally, he waited for an opportunity, but he no longer had the ability to take revenge, so he could only ask us for help, and use all the money he had left to ask the mercenary guild to help him fulfill his wish for revenge. ”
Speaking of this, Hollanster paused, looked at Allen, and saw that Allen was listening intently with an expression before he continued:
"The mission is to assassinate the Sect Emperor S. Hepburn!"
Hollanster took a deep breath, and seemed to have gathered enough strength to say this earth-shattering sentence.
"Assassinating Des Hepburn?"
Alan was equally shocked, the task was completely unexpected, but it seemed to make sense. The crazy expansion of the Holy See began with the coming to power of Dis Hepburn, before Dis Hepburn, the Holy See has been satisfied with a corner of the day, it can be said that Dis Hepburn is the spiritual symbol of the ambition of the Holy See, if there is no Hepburn, the behemoth of the Holy See is like a toothless lion, if he really dies unexpectedly, several cardinals under his command have strong strength, plus the Knights Templar, several major forces may be fighting for power and causing the Holy See to fall apart overnight.
If Hepburn had died, the splendor of the Holy See would have been gone.
This conclusion does not seem to be difficult to come to an end, but it is rare that no one would think of using this method to destroy the Holy See, because the assassination of Dice Hepburn is so difficult that it is almost impossible for anyone to think about it.
"Yes! When I first received this task, I wanted to reject it outright, but then I changed my mind. Alan, haven't you always wanted to destroy the Holy See but are worried that too many innocent people will be destroyed because of the war? If you can really assassinate Dis Hepburn, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? So I decided to wait for you to come back and discuss, I know that you have always been able to do what ordinary people cannot, and I believe that this time it will not disappoint me and the people of the world, and end the evil regime of the Holy See as soon as possible, which is cloused by noble beliefs. ”
Hollanster sat across from Allen, his tone was full of bewilderment, looking at Allen's eyes with an anxious glint in the depths of his eyes, he was anxious to get Allen's affirmative answer.
"This..."
Alan hesitated.
