Chapter 057:
The Lord's House was large, but strangely arranged, and on the ground floor, where the drawing room should have been, there was a huge table with what was probably the largest and most accurate map of all of Calradia, on which I could see not only the villages near Zenda, but also the valley where the tragedy had occurred, and the path to which it was entered by a dotted line. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ infoIn addition, several mountain people gathering places in the Jieshan Mountains are also marked on the map, but the hidden training ground does not appear on it.
I thought, why do you put this kind of thing in the lord's mansion, shouldn't this kind of thing appear in the barracks? But I haven't figured it out yet, Old G has already gone upstairs along the stairs, and I know that I can't show too much interest in this map, so I hurried a few steps and followed Old G upstairs.
Old G walked into the first room on the left hand on the second floor, and I followed. The decoration of this room is simple, even simple, not at all like the size of a lord's palace, but more like a room in an inn. Old G casually put the saber in the corner, pulled out a chair, and motioned for me to sit down, and he sat on the single bed in the room by himself.
"In fact, my status in Chanda is only a staff member of Count Arassis. Old G waited for me to sit down, and immediately spoke, "The master of Chanda is still Count Araciss, and I just gave him ideas and recommended some good talents to him." But there are many rumors that I have stolen Chanda and put Count Arassis in the air, which is nonsense. I think the superior behind you must have been deceived by such rumors and sent you here, right?"
I was shocked, and immediately remembered the conversation I had overheard in the tent that night, and knew that Old G had indeed taken me as a spy for one of the kings of the five great powers. My heart immediately settled down, and I sat down on the chair with big hands and feet, and the corners of my mouth raised an arc: "It's worthy of old G, it turns out that you have already guessed it." β
Old G seemed pleased with my confession, and he poured himself an Aalto and another one for me.
Old G said, "Which king is behind you? Haraus, or Ragnar?"
I smiled and said, "His Majesty is very interested in you and is eager to know the attitude of Zenda, because the activities of your righteous brother, Lord Nabal, near the royal capital are so eye-catching. β
Old G suddenly realized and said, "It turned out to be the messenger of King Ragnar." But for now, isn't my eldest brother Nabar also your brother?"
I smiled as gracefully as I could, nodded, and stroked my chest, "That's my pleasure." β
Old G said, "Indeed. My eldest brother Nabal is a nice man, such a person is rare in Calradia, and the people who can be recognized as brothers by him have their own uniqueness. Old G then frowned and said, "What about your uniqueness? IMHO, you seem to be a little ...... Weak. β
I laughed and said, "It's good to say that I don't have the power to tie the chicken." I don't know why Nabal-sama thinks so highly of me, maybe it's because of fate. β
Old G continued: "Is it related to the robbery of General Eden's caravan?"
I was shocked again, and I subconsciously wanted to escape immediately. How did Old G know that the robbery of the Eden caravan had something to do with me?
But I didn't show the shock in my heart, but said "hehe" twice without changing my face.
Old G suddenly sat up straight and said sincerely: "King Ragnar has realized that there is something wrong with General Eden, right? King Ragnar had a good idea to give them a knock in this way, but the problem is, now is not the time to curb the Dark Order by beating, and I have received reliable information that Eden and Tuya have taken refuge in the Dark Order, and it is likely that the disaster of the Dark Order in the future will be ignited from Tiha and Woche!"
I can't hide the shock in my heart this time, the Dark Order has already bought off General Eden and General Tuya? Those are the two high-ranking generals of the Nord Kingdom, and they have more than half of the standing forces of the Nord Kingdom. Once this is true, the Druas will officially get involved in Calradia, and the flames of war will inevitably be ignited first from Tiha and Woche. This should be the top secret belonging to the Dark Order, and it is impossible for Old G to get this news casually, unless he has an eyeliner within the Order. Thinking about it this way, I am even more determined to deal with Lao G, if I dig out his eyeliner within the Dark Order, it will really be a great credit, and it will definitely not be a problem to be knighted or something in the future.
Old G was obviously satisfied with my shock, but he couldn't guess the reason for my shock, he said: "You can't believe it, I couldn't believe it when I first got the news, but I have important evidence, I hope to use this evidence, and the promise to help King Ragnar pull out the hidden dangers inside, in exchange for the support and recognition of the Nord Kingdom for Zenda, I hope that brother you can convey my meaning to King Ragnar." β
I retracted my thoughts, still with a look of horror, and said, "I will bring your wishes, but I cannot give absolute guarantees, you know, His Majesty's mind is not guaranteed by anyone." β
Old G looked taken for granted and nodded: "That's natural, but I believe that after the king gets this news, he will definitely think about it." After speaking, he drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Okay, after the business is over, let's talk about private matters, why did you provoke the Dark Order, can you tell me?"
My heart tightened, knowing that the main event was coming, and I said carefully: "Didn't I say before, we accidentally killed a centurion named Buckley." β
Old G said: "There are countless centurions of the Dark Order, and I don't know how many died at my hands. There is no reason to dispatch a master of soul dementorship to take revenge, that is already an existence close to the level of a divine envoy. The five people in the valley who were killed by Peter earlier could not have had a soul dementorship, they were just the lowest-ranking inquisitors, and they were not the same as the ones who cast spells on you. Think about it carefully, what else have you done to provoke a master at the level of an oracle?"
I really used my brain to think about it. Edgar told me that the Dark Order has a total of three oracles, three deputy oracles, and is the pinnacle of the entire Dark Order's force, and below them are the elders, who are responsible for the specific departments within the Order, and then the legion leader. Listening to what Lao G said, I was able to provoke a master at the god envoy level to plot against me, this is incredible, I'm afraid that even if I kill Mebius with my own hands, I won't have this kind of treatment.
In the end, I shook my head and said I didn't know.
Old G also thought about it carefully, and said to himself: "Could it be that the other party's goal is me, and you are just tools? Well, if that's the case, it's easy to explain." But if you know that you have a role in killing me, there are only two chances, when you meet Nabal, and after you are saved by me. I've been by your side since I rescued you, and the other party didn't have a chance to cast a spell, so it's time for you to meet Nabal......"
Old G was still there analyzing, and my heart suddenly moved. The possibility of being spelled when I saw Nabal was very small, because Caesar and I had already separated at that time, and it didn't make sense that the two of us were hit by such a long distance, it could only be after meeting Lao G. Old G was right, I stayed with him after that, and the only time I had a gap was the night I first arrived at Dzenda, and that night Edgar had met me.
Could it be Edgar? He knows spiritualism? Isn't he an emissary-level master?
I have a vague bottom in my heart, but I'm still not sure, if it's really Edgar, why would he use such a trick to plot against Lao G, just cast a spell on a servant, you must know that I have some unknown origins, who knows if I will be plotted against Lao G after I have been in the soul dementorship, or I have this heart, if it wasn't for Lao G waking up in time, I'm afraid I would have died in the dungeon.
And, based on how I feel about Edgar, he's probably not the kind of person who uses his men as tools.
My head hurts when I think about it, Lao G looked at me and smiled bitterly: "It seems that there will be no answer to this question today, I arranged a room next door for you." You've just come out of the dungeon, so get some rest. I'll think about it tomorrow. So saying, he opened the door and called a maid to take me to the next door to rest.
The decoration next door is much more luxurious than that of old G, I heard that it was the room used by the Count of Arassis to entertain guests, and the room where old G slept was a utility room before. I was psychologically satisfied with a little bit of superiority. After washing, I lay on the bed, still wondering who was doing the soul trick on me, and the more I thought about it, the more headache I felt.
Suddenly, a dark figure delicately pushed open the window and entered, and the candles in the room were extinguished at the same time.
I've guessed who it is, and I'm much calmer this time.
The shadow sat down in front of me and lifted the cloak from his head, it was Edgar.
I had something to ask him, but I swallowed it again, and I sat down on my bed with my eyes fixed on Edgar as if nothing had happened.
Edgar asked urgently: "Why are you so reckless and actually assassinate Lao G directly?"
My heart moved, wasn't it him? But he said, "It's nothing, it's just that the opportunity is rare, there is only one woman there, and there are no other guards." β
Edgar frowned: "You are too naΓ―ve, it's good that Old G is not dead, and he fished you out." By the way, why did he fish you out without suspecting you anything?"
I said, "No, he thinks I'm a spy sent by King Ragnar and is very kind to me." β
Edgar thought for a moment and said, "Don't be so reckless in the future, your skills are completely unsuitable for assassination, just get some intelligence." β
I'm wondering if I should talk about spiritualism or not. I had just opened my mouth when suddenly Edgar's face changed and he whispered, "Someone is coming!"
As soon as I pricked up my ears, I heard the door of the explanation suddenly turn into a cloud of debris and shoot towards Edgar, and with the spray of debris, an ordinary handguard sword stabbed at Edgar in the strong wind, not very shocking, but it was thrilling.
Edgar stood up, shook out a short knife from his sleeve, and changed countless techniques, but in the end it collided with the handguard sword, and the short knife broke in response, and Edgar also snorted, as if he had suffered a loss.
In the blink of an eye, Old G had already flashed in. Edgar raised his hand and shot the broken short knife at Old G, and then pulled out another short knife and shot it at me with even more castration.
I almost jumped up and applauded.
Judging from the situation just now, Edgar should not be the one who performed soul magic on me, and since he was caught by Lao G about meeting me at night, in order to save my nail, the best way is to play a scene of infiltrating assassination, and now what he is showing is to use the broken knife to hinder Lao G's actions and create opportunities to assassinate me with perseverance.
Of course, I don't have to worry about being killed by this knife, because Old G is here.
Sure enough, the sword momentum of Lao G changed, and the dense sword image blocked the two of us in front of a wall, and the two short knives were ready to be blocked. But after such a delay, Edgar slipped out of the window. Two screams rang out from outside, as if two guards had been killed by him.
Old G snorted coldly, and ordered the guards who finally rushed in behind: "Order, close the city, search the whole city!" and then looked at me again: "Are you okay?"
My face was still pale, but I nodded reluctantly: "It's okay, it's good that you showed up in time." β
