Chapter 842: Sudden Death

Although the atmosphere in Bouveles was very tense, it did not have much impact on the Ice Bear Castle, and the annual Winter Festival banquet was still held as usual, and the nobles from all over the Ice Bear Castle gathered in the Ice Bear Castle, but compared to the excitement of the Winter Festival banquet in previous years, this year's banquet was obviously a little different.

Everyone had no desire to talk, and they sat down in their seats, quietly waiting for the banquet to begin, ending the banquet early, and leaving here, because they all knew that it would not be long before this place would become a battlefield.

The performance of these people naturally could not escape the ears and eyes of the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, their every move in the banquet hall was monitored by the servants here, and all kinds of information were transmitted to the ears of the Grand Duke as soon as possible.

The Ice Bear family has ruled the Ice Bear County for hundreds of years, and was already the ruler of this land before the establishment of the Kingdom of Dailyat, and almost all the nobles here have blood ties to the Ice Bear family, and their loyalty is unquestionable.

But this is just to say that in the past, if he hadn't supported Leah Venistan at the beginning, hadn't supported those immigration policies and land exchange policies in the first place, and scattered the most loyal people in the family to those rich places in the south, and let the nobles from other places enter Ice Bear County, maybe he wouldn't have encountered the current predicament.

"However, it doesn't matter, it will soon pass, and when tonight's banquet is over, the Ice Bear family will regain full control of the land of Ice Bear County!" Lazio Faran said confidently after writing the name of the last nobleman into the list.

Then he tugged at the rope next to the bookcase, and after a while, a secret door opened and his chief agent stepped out of the secret door, standing respectfully in front of Lazio Farran.

"Distribute this list and let them follow the plan. Lazio Farrán handed over the list in his hand.

The chief agent didn't say anything and put the list away, but he didn't leave immediately, but showed a look of intent and stopping.

"Anything else?" asked Lazio Farran, frowning.

"Master, the assassins sent over there have not yet been found. The chief agent bowed his head and said.

Lazio Farran's face became gloomy, and he stared at the chief agent for a long time, but did not speak.

The chief agent seemed to feel the intense pressure, and his body trembled involuntarily.

Looking at the spy chief who was trembling with fear, Lazio Farran said coldly: "Before dawn tomorrow, you must find out the people, otherwise, you should know what kind of punishment you will receive." ”

"Yes. Seeing that he had not been punished this time, the chief agent couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, answered, and then hurriedly retreated into the secret door and closed it again.

"Useless waste, it looks like it's time for a different dog!" Lazio Farrán not only could not tolerate infidelity, but also incompetence, and it was clear that the chief agent was no longer qualified to hold the position in his mind, and that the position would have only one outcome if it was replaced.

Just as Lazio Farrán pondered the next suitable agent in charge, there was a knock on the door in the room.

"Come in. Lazio Faran said in a deep voice.

As the voice fell, the castle's butler pushed the door and walked in, and said to Lazio Fran, "My lord, the banquet is ready, and the guests on the list have arrived. ”

Hearing the butler's words, Lazio Farran nodded, and then ordered the butler to go down, he got up and took out from the wardrobe an ice bear that the Grand Duke of Ice Bear had worn when he succeeded to the throne, and then prepared to leave the room, but when he reached the door, he still stopped, turned back into the room, opened a secret safe hidden under the desk, took out a necklace from it, and hung it around his neck.

Although Lazio Faran was confident that no one would be able to silently break into the Ice Bear Castle, because he had already placed a large number of people in the Ice Bear Castle, including some clansmen and transcendents with special abilities, he didn't know why he was still very concerned about the fact that the assassin didn't find it, and he felt a little unsure, so he put a talisman he bought with a lot of money on his body, just in case.

After getting dressed, the Grand Duke of Ice Bear walked out of the study and led the knights to the banquet hall.

As he entered the banquet hall, he stopped a little, and his face became a little gloomy.

Although he already knew from all the information that the atmosphere in the banquet hall was not very good, he definitely did not expect that the banquet hall would be so bad, and the silence did not look like a banquet for the Winter Festival at all, but as if he was attending a funeral.

"Funeral! Yes, this is the funeral of you guys!" said the Grand Duke of Ice Bear as he looked at the rebels of Ice Bear County, and said coldly in his heart.

The Grand Duke of Ice Bear restrained the ferocity on his face and walked directly to the chair of the banquet table, and all the people around him, whether they were hostile to the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, dissatisfied with him, or loyal to him, all stood up and saluted him.

Seeing that those who betrayed him had to bow their heads to him, Lazio Faran had a look of disdain on his face, so he decided to change his plan, stop the false etiquette with these disgusting guys, and get straight to the point, and deal with these eyesore guys first.

So, he gestured to the chief knight beside him, and was about to open his mouth to order the rebels on the list to be taken down directly, but suddenly there was a crashing sound from the wall near the top of the banquet hall, and then a crack appeared, and a slender prismatic crystal spear came out of it, and pierced it towards the Grand Duke of Ice Bear at a very fast speed.

The Grand Duke of Ice Bear had just heard the voice and looked up to look over there, and the crystal spear had already rushed in front of him.

Just when the Grand Duke of Ice Bear thought he was going to die, the necklace on his chest immediately burst into a ray of light, forming a transparent wall with a silver-blue glow, blocking the crystallized spear.

Seeing the effect of the talisman he had bought with a lot of money, Grand Duke Ice Bear smiled on his face, and at the same time felt glad that he was able to foresee the danger and wear this necklace in time.

However, before the smile on his face could fully emerge, the transparent wall shattered in an instant, and the crystal spear penetrated through it without any obstruction, directly piercing the body of the Ice Bear Grand Duke, who instantly turned into a crystal, and then shattered into countless pieces, and his mouth was still intact, judging from the shape of the mouth, it could be seen that he was smiling happily.

From the sound of the crash on the wall of the banquet hall to the assassination of the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, it was just a matter of a moment, everyone was stunned by what was in front of them, everyone didn't know what to do and how to react, and the entire banquet hall was so silent that there was no sound.

At this time, those who were loyal to the Grand Duke of Ice Bear thought of the plans hinted at by the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, including the chief knight who knew the most about the plan, but now no matter how loyal they were to the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, they did not dare to carry out the plan they had made before, because the Grand Duke of Ice Bear had no heirs, and the first heir of the Grand Duke of Ice Bear was Campbe Fran, the Earl of Snow Deer, who was extremely bitter to Lazio Farran.

At this time, I don't know who suddenly shouted: "Kill them, it was the Grand Duke they assassinated!

Hearing this, everyone instinctively pulled out the weapons on their waists, and at the same time slashed at the enemy around them, without thinking about who shouted this, whether they had to come to this life-and-death battle, the only thought they could have in their minds now was to feel the enemy and push the death of the Grand Duke of Ice Bear onto the enemy.

Meanwhile, far away on the hill outside the city of Bouvelus, Leo is retracting the spiritual net from the Ice Bear Castle and dissipating the crystallized mana in his hands.

He didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and he only used a crystallized soul gun to deal with this big man in the Dailiat, and he also knew about what happened in the banquet hall after that through the spirit network, and knew that there must be Leah Venistan in it.

For Leah Vinistan now, an Ice Bear County mired in chaos and civil war is far more in line with his etiquette than a calm Ice Bear County, even if many of those people have secretly sworn allegiance to her, but she knows very well that their loyalty cannot be guaranteed without external pressure.

Now all the powerful nobles of Ice Bear County have gathered in the hall to fight each other, no matter how this battle ends in the end, which side the victory belongs to, Ice Bear County will definitely fall into war, and neither side will give up.

However, none of this had anything to do with Leo, who had now completed his deal with Leah Venistan, jumped straight from the small cliff on the hillside, and then spread his psionic wings and flew towards the place where he had placed the Northland Packbeast.

Not long after, he landed not far from the beast of burden, and after unreining the reins, he sat down on the soft chair behind the beast, and let the long fur of the beast around him cover his body, keeping the cold wind and snow out, and with a shout, the beast took a step and walked towards the valley of Bouvelus.

Although Leo did not stop at Bouilles for a moment, the speed of his movement was still not as fast as the transmission of news, and in the early morning of the second day after he left Bouvelus, news about the chaos of Bouvelus and the battle in the Ice Bear Castle was delivered to Dai Lisa's palace under the transmission of the eagle, and Leah Vinistan, who looked a little weak, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after seeing the information content above.

She didn't expect that things would come to an end so quickly, and in just a few days, the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, who she considered a threat, died, which made her subconsciously think that there was something wrong with this information, but after reading it twice, she was sure that the information was true, and she couldn't help but improve Leo's execution ability by a few levels again.

When she decided to make the assassination of the Grand Duke Ice Bear a bargain, she never doubted Leo's ability to do it, the only thing that made her unsure was how long it would take.

In her estimation, Leo would need to spend at least a month and a half to solve the big trouble of the Ice Bear Grand Duke, but what she didn't expect was that Leo took less than ten days in total, and in those ten days, at least six days were on the road, and in fact, the preparation time for the assassination was less than four days.

In the intelligence, it was written in detail how the Grand Duke of Ice Bear died, and the process of this death was also beyond her expectations.

From the time when Lazio Faran was driven back to Ice Bear County, Leah Vinistan was thinking about changing the owner of Ice Bear County, so she had been secretly monitoring Lazio Farran's various moves, and Lazio Farran asked people to go to the black market of the Maris Kingdom to buy a talisman of a tower wizard She naturally knew about it, and also knew that this talisman was very powerful, at least she was not completely sure that she would be able to break through the defense of this talisman in a short time.

However, Leo did it, and with just one attack, he broke the talisman necklace of the tower wizard and killed the target, this attack was so powerful that she couldn't help but think of what her soothsayer said, mentioning that Leo would severely damage the wizard tower.

Although she knew that the Wizard Tower had indeed been hit hard, allowing her to get what she wanted without any danger, if she hadn't been too careless in the end and gave the Wizard Tower time to blow itself up, maybe she wouldn't have been injured, let alone stay in the palace honestly.

At that time, she didn't know what kind of powerful wizard tower Leo was using, she thought that maybe it was some kind of powerful strange thing left by a tower wizard, after all, Leo had the title of the last tower wizard, and it was not strange to have some powerful strange things left by the tower wizard in his hand, but now it seems that it is not a strange thing at all, but a kind of witchcraft that has never been seen before, but a powerful witchcraft, which can hurt demigods.

This made her feel an inexplicable sense of crisis, she didn't know how far the Tower Wizard's research on the gods had reached, but now she knew from Leo that the Tower Wizard had probably studied a powerful sorcery to balance the gods, which made some of the original thoughts in her mind begin to change.

It turned out that she was also going to find an opportunity to woo Leo again, so that Leo could stay and become the prince of Dyadiyat, because it was the first time she felt such a strong vitality from another person, and this vitality was very compatible with herself, and the offspring born after the combination of the two would definitely gain a talent far beyond that of her predecessor, and she could also rest assured that she would hand over the kingdom to her offspring, concentrate on the affairs of the church, and prepare for the next step.

But now she has changed her mind, because Leo's strength has posed a threat to her, and she needs a husband who can help her reproduce, not a strong man who can threaten her life, so letting Leo leave Daliat as soon as possible has become the only thought that comes to her mind.
