As soon as the Duke of Aldington finished speaking, a rebel lurker who had been hiding on the roof beam fell to the ground, and several Duchy guards rushed up and slashed him to death with long knives!

The other nobles did not see the rebel lurkers who had been slashed to a non-humanoid shape, and many of the nobles smiled strangely like the Duke of Aldington, as if it was the first time that killing someone was such a joyful thing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info It's just that they weren't happy for long, because the sound of the thick rope above their heads began to loosen.

"Your men don't seem to be holding on to the beams of the roof," the Duke of Aldington held his forehead with one hand and looked coldly at Rutz.

"Lord Duke, it seems that you are really unrepentant, so there is no need for me to continue to negotiate with you on a reciprocal basis. The thin piece of glass that Lutz was holding in one hand suddenly fell from his hand, and the piece of glass shattered as soon as it touched the ground, and at the same time, the rebel lurkers who were lying in ambush on the roof beams also threw liquid downward!

The guards who were spilled in the face by the liquid immediately showed mild bleeding symptoms, they became breathless, their limbs were weak, and the corners of their mouths and nostrils were oozing blood, but they were not immediately poisoned to death! There were also some guards who reacted quickly and immediately blocked their faces, but the more than a dozen rebel lurkers who jumped from the roof did not give them a chance, and the fast swords in their hands shuttled on these guards who lost their vision and direction, and in just half a minute, all the Duchy guards who secretly broke into the banquet hall were killed, and the rebels quickly regained control of the entire banquet hall.

Both Fide and Vittorio could see clearly that some of the rebels were wearing chef's clothes, while others were wearing the clothes of the dinner party's subordinates, and it seemed that Meryl, the female officer in charge of the dinner, was not able to escape the blame.

Among the dozen or so rebel lurkers who jumped off the beam, Fed saw Octavia, a rebel cadre who had assassinated him twice, and the short knife in the opponent's hand and her posture were something Fed could not forget.

The guests, who had just felt that the situation had been reversed, instantly fell back into despair, "It turns out that this poison does not need to act at the same time..."

"Then you are wrong, when one of the drugs has been 'brewing' in the human body for a period of time, it can kill people when combined with the other, and your minions have inhaled our newly developed mixture. Rutz smugly glanced around, several entrances and exits of the inner banquet hall were controlled by his subordinates, the smell of blood permeating the banquet hall, and all around him were only terrified aristocratic guests.

Upvo shouted from the sidelines, "Hey, your name is Lutz, right?"

"That's right. ”

"What are you going to do with the other country's missions here?" Ampwo crossed his hands over his chest, as if he didn't care about the poison powder above his head and the dozen or so skilled rebel lurkers.

Lutz glanced back at the mission of the Duchy of Deramain, Walter, as the representative, was not in his seat, "All of you here are my hostage bargaining chips, as long as the Duke of Aldington is willing to cooperate with us, you will be safe and sound." ”

"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say," Ampwo stomped his foot, his men standing behind him holding the enchanted heavy sword, "I hope your rebel organization won't anger all the countries of the continent so quickly, otherwise..."

"That's right, we, the Marveil Republic, are neutral on this matter!" Archon Barnes answered, frowning at all.

The restless nobles were relieved of the verbal promise that there was nothing more important to them than their own lives, so they all began to hope that the Duke of Aldington would grant the request of the Lutz gang. As an important guest, Queen Rosemond appeared very calm from the start, and she maintained a serious expression and sat upright in her seat. Princess Winlith, who was sitting beside her, whispered to the knight behind her from time to time, and did not make any special moves. The papal envoys all showed anxious expressions, and Kiro kept asking the Salins Kingdom delegation sitting next to him how to deal with it, and it was estimated that Lutz and Levier, who were standing in the banquet hall, heard his voice.

The blood on Luthus's body had long since dried up, and Suzanne and Leonie were no longer in tears, especially Susanna, who stared at the side of her brother Rutz's face. Perhaps she was the one who should be most remorseful, because it was Suzanne who begged her father to invite the leader of the rebel army, who had become an enemy, to the wedding banquet, and if he didn't come, maybe everything would have been different.

"Susanna, get me pen and paper, and the seal of the Duchy!" called out the Duke of Aldington, after a minute of silence. In the face of the trap and conspiracy set by the inner and outer alliances, the Duke has become helpless - even if there are countless soldiers in the city of Even, even if he has been prepared for the emergency, the Duke of Aldington has been calculated by the rebels, and now the duke's face is only chagrin.

"Captain Fed, now may be a very good opportunity," Vittorio leaned his mouth into Fed's ear, and Fed, like everyone else, awaited the Duke of Aldington's decision, "If we have a way to avoid those poison powders, we may be able to catch Lutz and Levier and solve the current predicament." ”

Fidel nodded slightly, Vittorio's proposal was dangerous, but it was worth considering. Although the purpose of coming here is to deal with the Pillar Priests, the Potato Mercenary Regiment has already stood on the opposite side of the rebels, and Rutz and Levier, who are now standing in front of them, will sooner or later fight with themselves, and even if they do it now, it can't be considered nosy. However, he had exerted too much strength in the battle with Toya, and his hands were still very tired, and he was far away from Lutz, so Octavia, who was standing in the distance, should have noticed himself, right?

"Act on the opportunia. Feder whispered back.

Suzanne personally brought paper and pen from the side hall, and the Duke of Aldington began to write after taking it, "That guy Leon has already surrendered to me, but if you want to take him, take him away, he doesn't mean much to me." ”

"Very well, then give the order to release Leon quickly. Lutz said as he put one foot on the broken glass.

"As for ordering the southern nobles to evacuate... This is equivalent to the morning wind, which does not work at all except to make the skin feel a burst of itching. The Duke of Aldington muttered to himself.

When the Duke himself wrote down the edict, Li Wei also sent several rebels to various places in the inner banquet hall, paying attention to the situation inside and outside the banquet hall. At most, there were no more than fifty members of the rebels, and these people had been hiding on the rooftops, and some of them were waiting at the dinner party disguised as subordinates. At this time, there was a group of heavily armed Duchy guards outside the door, and the guests in the banquet hall had already been evacuated, and Fed realized that the only way for the rebels to escape was to hold Aldington hostage.

After about five minutes, the Duke of Aldington threw the written edict on the ground, "This is what you want. ”

Lutz nodded to Richer, who then walked over to Aldington, picked up the edict, and made sure it was correct before returning to Lutz's side.

"Very well, Levier, you take the edict out of the door, and let the duchy guards bring Leon here, and then have some messengers bring the order to withdraw to the southern nobles. Lutz was still staring at the Duke of Aldington, the corners of his mouth raised as if to suggest that he was the victor in the negotiation.

It didn't take long for Leon, the former leader of the rebels, to be brought into the inner banquet hall, and in addition to him, dozens of ragged rebel prisoners were brought into the banquet hall, and the stench on their bodies immediately covered up the smell of blood. Fett saw that Leon had long, messy hair, which covered his face with black-brown hair, and that thick beard, which had grown to the Adam's apple, and looked like a wild man in the mountains.

Leon, dressed in a thin prison uniform, didn't say a word, and he was escorted to the back door of the banquet hall by the two rebels, and the rest of the rebel prisoners were also freed and picked up their weapons on the ground. Then the crows were brought to the banquet hall, and they were all tied with sealed edicts and released from the windows to the sky.

"Alright, that's the last thing left for now," said Rutz, who walked up to the Duke of Oldington as if he were the master of Ebon City, "you and Suzanne are to be my hostages until I leave Ebon City safely, and you will be released." ”

"If there are any other requirements, I will say them as well. ”

"Lord Rutz, the representatives of those Chamber of Commerce mercenary groups are also extremely evil, it is better to..."

"Hmph, are you going to take this opportunity to kill people and sacrifice flags?" Aldington glanced at the representative of the Chamber of Commerce's mercenary group in the distance, and the other party was already trembling with fear.

Lutz nodded to his men, and several of the rebels walked quickly towards the representatives of the Chamber of Commerce mercenary group.

"No!" the mercenary sitting next to Feder suddenly shouted, drawing his sword and looking at the rebels in horror while the rebels in prison uniforms laughed.

Just as everyone's attention was drawn to the representative of the Chamber of Commerce's mercenary group, the Duke of Aldington suddenly looked at a window in the side hall and nodded slightly. Countless crossbow arrows immediately shot from outside the banquet hall and shot at the beams of the roof of the banquet hall! In an instant, more than a dozen rebels who were still holding thick ropes on the beams were shot down.

The sudden mutation startled Lutz, and he was about to order his men to capture the Duke of Aldington as a hostage, when the Duke of Aldington pressed a mechanism! Four steel plates suddenly erected around his seat, protecting Aldington.

"I know you won't kill your sister and mother. These were the last words left by the Duke, and then the four steel plates were closed in the middle one after another - the Duke of Aldington used the mechanism to move himself to the ground of the inner banquet hall, and escaped from danger in an instant!

The guests and nobles tried to take advantage of the chaos to flee, and the guards outside the banquet hall also rushed in after shooting crossbow arrows, and exchanged hands with the rebel members guarding everywhere!

"Don't let anyone go!" Lutz roared as he stood on top of the plates.

The rebels who were not shot immediately broke the rope full of poison powder, and the bags of poison powder also fell down, and many guests who couldn't avoid it were immediately poisoned to death!

Feder had already lifted the tablecloth to wrap himself and Vittorio, and Dockley had lifted the table to protect Maev. But the guests who sat furthest away were not the targets of the rebels, and not even the rope above their heads broke.

"Run in that direction!" Fett held the tablecloth in one hand and pointed to the side of the banquet hall with the other, where only two rebels were guarding.
