Chapter 174: Murry's Plan
Little Horn left Viscount Lane's manor and joined Augustus and the others outside the manor, and this moment finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Augustus saw little Horn's appearance, smiled and said, "Hahaha, what are you kid afraid of? Are you really afraid of being beaten to death by your father?"
Little Horn rolled his eyes and said, "Why did you let me go, you know that my father is inside, and there is an army of Viscount Lane in the manor." β
"Hahahaha......" Augustus laughed on his back, and the face with only half of his face left looked unusually distorted and hideous.
After laughing, he said to Little Horn: "This is a test for you, if you can't withstand this pressure, then you are not qualified to stay by Xiao Moli's side, even if Xiao Moli lets you go, I will kill you with my own hands." β
Hearing Augustus's unceremonious words, little Horn was taken aback: "Oh my God, you, you madman. β
Augustus smirked and said, "Crazy? Hahaha, so to speak, people sometimes have to be crazy. β
Little Horn rolled his eyes, not knowing what to say.
There was silence for a moment before he asked again, "So what should we do next?"
Augustus turned his head to look at the Iron City and said in a deep voice, "What should I do? Of course, we will gather men and horses to attack the Steel City. β
Little Horn was really shocked for a moment: "Are you really going to attack? There is an Imperial Army stationed there now." β
Augustus said indifferently: "What about the Imperial Army? Hmph, how can those cowards who have fled from the northern front be our opponents? β
"Otherwise, how will you be able to hold power in the future, and how will you be able to gain the power that belongs to you in this land? Remember, you must not be afraid at such times. β
Under the encouragement of Augustus, little Horn also ignited his fighting spirit, nodded and said, "Okay, it's done." β
"Hahahaha...... laughing with satisfaction, "Very well, that's what a leader should be." β
Then, he reached out and grabbed little Horn and threw it on his shoulder, and Augustus carried little Horn and left quickly.
A great war is about to break out, and this will be the first war in which commoners overthrow the nobility since the founding of the Sun Empire, and even in the history of the entire Western continent.
And outside the Dark Castle at this time, Catherine finally sensed that something was wrong.
He stood up and said unceremoniously, "Murray, what the hell are you doing? Are you deliberately trying to trap us here?"
Seeing that Catherine had realized that something was wrong, Murray simply stopped hiding anything.
Standing up, he stretched and said, "That's right, I just deliberately trapped you all here. β
"Now that a great war is about to break out in the viscountdom, it will be a critical moment for the commoners to seize power, and you must not show up at this time. β
Hearing this, both Catherine and the four magicians were taken aback, and instantly thought of a terrifying possibility.
The female magician was the first to speak: "You, you actually want to let the commoners take power, and you want the commoners to overthrow the aristocratic dominance of the Western Continent for thousands of years?"
Murray smiled and nodded: "Beautiful lady, you are right, this is what I want to do, and this is what those people outside want." β
The next moment, without waiting for Catherine to speak, she continued: "Beautiful lady magician, I already know your identity, I think you should be the royal daughter who was sent by the imperial family and the Holy See to marry Sarya and Viscount Lane instead, right?"
"What?" the other three magicians exclaimed in an instant, and then they all looked at the female magician in disbelief.
After a long time, Catherine gritted her teeth and asked, "You, how did you know? When did you find out?"
Murray looked up and laughed, "Hahaha, in fact, I have already guessed from the eye contact between the two of you. β
Catherine and the female magician looked at each other for the first time, and surprise was written in the eyes of both women.
And Morry continued: "Actually, Viscount Lane has long reached an agreement with the imperial family of the Empire, the empire recognizes Lane as a state, and you also want to help the Sun Empire reorganize the country after the establishment of the country. β
"To put it bluntly, this is a transaction between you, and it is a transaction that calculates the twelve gold nobles, and you want to use this chaos to get rid of the twelve gold nobles in one fell swoop, and from then on, in the entire Western Continent, only the Sun Emperor and your Lane family are the two most expensive royal families, and the other nobles will be your vassals. β
"But what you didn't expect was that Uncle Raul was accidentally killed by civilians, causing Aunt Shanna to go crazy and become the Dark Witch that you all feared. β
"So you decided that before you get married and establish a country, you must find a way to get rid of the Black Witch, so that you can be completely at ease. β
"Actually, Salia, who escaped in the first place, was the first transaction between the Imperial Royal Family and your Lane family. β
"If it weren't for Aunt Shanna's transformation into the Dark Witch, you would have had Viscount Ryan marry Saraya and complete the establishment of the kingdom. β
"Everything you calculated well, but many things did not go the way you thought. β
"There are two biggest variables, the first is Aunt Shanna, the dark witch, and the second is me, I, a native of the Dragon Kingdom. β
Broken by Murray's words, Catherine and the female magician glanced at each other, and neither of them continued to hide.
The female magician stood up and said coldly: "Amazing, it is said that the wisdom of the people of the Dragon Kingdom is unparalleled, and today I really understand the wisdom of the people of the Dragon Kingdom." β
Catherine then said, "You're right, you guessed everything, so you deliberately lured the four of them here? and then trapped here with me, so that we can't interfere in the situation outside." β
Morry nodded: "Yes, no matter who the four of you go out, it will affect the next situation of Viscount Lane." β
"That's why I deliberately used a ploy to trap you all here, so that you can't affect the situation outside. β
The female magician asked again, "So, can you tell us now what you have done to the outside?"
Murray looked at the female magician and asked with a smile, "This lady, should you introduce yourself before you ask me a question?"
The female magician was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My name is 'Lisa', the 12th Sun Emperor is my father, and the current 13th Sun Emperor is my own brother. β
Hearing the name of the female magician, Saria suddenly exclaimed, "Lisa, didn't that little princess, the most talented little princess of the royal family, die young?"
Lisa looked at Saria and said, "Hmph, Holy Witch, you are really naΓ―ve, the royal family just doesn't want me to be too dazzling." β
Saria was said to be innocent, and her expression was suddenly very unhappy, and she had the intention of doing something with Lisa.
However, Murray stretched out his hand to soothe Salia, and said with a smile: "Actually, my solution is very simple, which is to force Viscount Ryan to agree to cooperate with the Commoners, so that the Commoners will become the power layer of the Lane Empire." β
