All the guests and guards looked up, and there were dozens of thick ropes on the roof beams, which looked new and white. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Fide and Vittorio recognized at a glance the thick ropes they had found in front of the Reindeer Chamber of Commerce while following the rebels. Vittorio thought that the ropes were used to ignite the "explosive black powder", but could they have other uses?

"Oh no! there's something else in those ropes!" the sharp-eyed Vittorio immediately saw the clue.

Lutz glanced at Vittorio, he smiled and said, "You still have good eyesight, those ropes are empty, but I put some things in them, including packets of powder." ”

Powder?!Feld immediately remembered the black powder he had seen on the cargo ship that night, but hadn't all of it already been burned out?

Van Decker immediately had the ladders brought in by his subordinates, intending to go up and inspect the ropes himself—it was definitely his and Meryl's fault that something had been placed on the roof. At this time, even the Duke of Aldington asked his subordinates to call the female officer Meryl, wanting to ask the other party what the situation was.

"What the hell are you going to do, Lutz?!" Luthers stepped forward a little more.

Lutz shouted, "No one is allowed to move! Whoever dares to leave his seat will be poisoned to death!"

Lutz's words overwhelmed all the panicked guests, and only Vittorio reacted immediately, whispering to Fidel: the ropes contained another medicine, and as soon as the rope broke, the powder on the roof would be scattered on the faces of all the guests. I am afraid that those drinks and delicacies have already been mixed with the first medicine, and once the two drugs enter the human body at the same time, the guests present will be immediately poisoned and killed like Duke Pobo.

Feder inadvertently glanced at the mission of the Kingdom of Salins, Rosemander was unusually calm, and Winlith was unanimous. The latter, of course, was not afraid of the powder, for she had been like wood throughout the dinner, had not touched much food, and could use her full body armor to resist the powder falling into her body, but why did Rosemund not care about the current critical situation?

Not a single guest dared to leave their position, not even the guards with sharp weapons in their hands stopped - the Duke of Aldington had already gestured to stop anyone from moving half a step.

"This is your plot, which means that there are your subordinates in my palace," the Duke of Aldington glanced at Van Deke and then at Rosemund, the sister of Meryl, the lady who oversaw everything at the dinner, "but if you want to poison us all, you won't be able to escape alive... Tell me, what do you want when you set these conspiracy traps?"

The Duke of Aldington calmed down at the mortal threat, and the other guests understood the present situation from the words of the Duke and his master—fearing that at the slightest order from the leader of the rebels, the ropes hanging from the roof of the house would be severed, and all who had eaten the food of the dinner would vomit blood and die. As for Lutz and Levier, of course they would be safe, they may have already taken the antidote.

Lutz also regained his composure from his agitated state, and his subordinate Levier stood up and stood behind Lutz, "What do I want? Don't you know that you used to be my father?"

Susanna, at the risk of irritating Rutz, stood up and said, "Lutz, are you crazy!, we are all your family...", the Duchess and Leonie, who were sitting next to her, tried to reach out and hold Susanna, but Suzanne stood up resolutely.

"I've put the antidote in your food, as well as Leonie and Mother's," Lutz's eyes suddenly became gentle as he looked at Susanna, "but my father and brother are long dead, and the ideals I pursue are my father, not a tyrannical ruler who puts on a posture and destroys his conscience!"

Sitting in the distance, Fed, couldn't understand Lutz's words, after all, from Dragonbeard City here, Feder saw jubilant civilians wanting to congratulate Lord Luthers. Although the rule of the principality may be imperfect, it is much better than many countries.

Some of the nobles sitting at the farthest end of the inner banquet hall began to anoint the soles of their feet and secretly escaped from the inner banquet hall. Levier, who looked back from time to time, did not tell Lutz about the situation, and it was clear that the main target of the rebels was the Duke of Aldington, not the guests of low status.

"Whatever you want, you're just threatening us anyway, aren't you?" Killing us won't do you any good—" The Duke of Aldington put his cheek on one hand and looked at Lutz coldly.

"Oh, really?" Lutz snapped his fingers suddenly, then pointed at Luthers, who was standing a few meters away. The rope above Luthers' head suddenly snapped, and the broken part was just above Luthers! A small bag of powder fell from the thick rope and sprinkled directly on Luthers's face!

The Duke of Aldington's roar reverberated throughout the inner banquet hall, and his loud roar turned from anger to pathos, for Lord Luthus, within seconds of attracting the powder, began to spit blood from his mouth, and even from his ears and nose!

Most of the guests were stunned by what they saw, and even the bravest would not have imagined that Lutz would go straight to his own brother - a young nobleman who had just married the Ice Princess, and the tragedy would be completed in a matter of seconds.

Margaret was also frightened, but just as all eyes were on Luthers' corpse, Jack suddenly appeared behind Margaret, took his sister's hand and fled deeper into the inner banquet hall.

Except for a few relatively calm people, no one noticed that Margaret had disappeared, and no one noticed that many of the nobles behind Feder had taken the opportunity to escape from the banquet hall. Some of the guards outside the banquet hall also poured into the inner banquet hall, filling the banquet hall, and some guards began to try to get close to the roof beams.

Luthes and Lutz's biological mother, the Duchess, was crying, and Suzanne couldn't help but want to rush out and hug Luthus's body, but Leonie, who was relatively calm, grabbed her, and the housekeeper's daughter was also crying, but reason allowed her to protect Susanna.

The expression on Lutz's face froze the moment Luthers fell, but he quickly swallowed the result of killing his brother with his own hands, "Alright, Lord Duke, immediately stop your soldiers from approaching the rooftop, and order them to exit the inner banquet hall immediately, otherwise..."

The Duke of Oldington's eyes lost focus, as if he was watching the blood coming out of Luthers' mouth as it reached Rosemund's table, "Let the soldiers get out, get out..."

Standing not far away, Van Deke immediately asked the guards to retreat outside the banquet hall, he was one of the few people who noticed that Margaret had been taken away, so he also left the banquet hall with the guards, wanting to order the guards to intercept Jack the Green Ghost.

Vittorio whispered in Fide's ear: "If we leave secretly, it is estimated that neither Livier nor Lutz will stop us, their target is not us..."

Fed glanced at the rooftop, and then at the important nobles who were still left in the banquet hall. The missions of the Republic of Marvil, the Marquis of Ampwol, the Kingdom of Salins, the two Oguna Empire missions, and the Papal States were still there, Walter and Toyer were nowhere to be found, and Orlando leaned against a pillar, sipping wine while watching Lutz and Levier. These people have become hostages in the hands of Lutz, no matter how hard the human body is tempered, no matter how sharp the weapon in the hand, the poison powder in the rope will kill people in an instant. But Feder also knew that the truth was the same as the Duke of Aldington said, and if he killed everyone, there would be no point in Lutz's devotion to these complex traps.

"If the powder falls, I can lift the wooden table to block it," Dockley tilted his head too, now in the same boat as Field, "but you have to be quick!"

"Then Captain Dokley, you should protect Meifu. Fed also thought about lifting the table to protect himself, but he found it more efficient and safer to use the tablecloth.

Ampwer waited until all the guards had withdrawn and suddenly shouted, "Is this the way you rebels do these tricks?

"This is the way to shed the least amount of blood, and our rebels are not targeting civilians, but unrepentant rulers. Lee Veldelutz replied.

Orlando took the opportunity and said, "Really, I'm not a ruler." ”

"You are the minions of the rulers. ”

The Duke of Oldington waved his wife and Suzanne away, but the three people who had already unknowingly taken the antidote were unwilling to leave, and Suzanne tried to go up to Lutz and dissuade her brother, but Leonie grabbed her arm.

"Well, I should also talk about the conditions of the rebels. ”

"That's what you thought at first, even at the cost of killing your own brother. The Duke of Oldington turned his face down.

"There is no point in continuing to argue about a corpse, and now I want the Duke of Oldington to write an agreement to release Leon, the former rebel leader who was imprisoned in the prison of Evon City. ”

Lutz's words made the Duke of Aldington couldn't help laughing, "Hahahaha, I thought my second son was so promising, can't you be the leader of the rebel army yourself, and then lead your rabble to attack the city of Evon and take off your old man's head?!"

Lutz also responded with laughter: "Lyon is kind to me, and this is also the decision of all the cadres and leaders of the rebel army. Second, you and Suzanne are to be my hostages, and until I and my men are able to get on a boat and leave here, I will naturally send someone to send you back to Ebon. ”

This time, even Ampvo and Barnes, who were sitting on the sidelines, burst into laughter, and Orlando drank all the wine in his glass, and walked to the table alone to fill the wine, unconcerned about the current situation.

Duke Aldington snorted coldly, "It's really a little trick." ”

"Thirdly, give an order to withdraw all the nobles in the south, and those castles and cities will henceforth be owned by the rebels. ”

The Marquis of Ampvo interjected: "The milky and dry boy has such a big breath... Just open your mouth and ask for a quarter of the territory of the Duchy of Noo?"

The Duke of Oldington shook his head, "You know it's impossible, is it possible that a lowly life has made you stupid?"

"Of course I know it's impossible, but I need you to deliver orders to the southern nobles immediately, and whether they want to leave their territory or not is another matter. Lutz paid no heed to the Duke's refusal, nor did he mind the contempt of the other noble guests, and looked confident.

"What if I grant you all your requests? Do you really think your plot will succeed? If you surrender now, you will be my only son... But I guess you won't do that, but—" The Duke of Aldington looked at his second son with a grim look, and some of his best guards were already silently approaching, "and you negotiate with me with the chips you hold in your hands now, and I'm afraid it will be a problem to even leave this banquet hall." ”
