At night, the eastern capital is still bustling and lively, with bright lights dotting every corner of the city, and in the years since the advent of electric lights, people have become more and more accustomed to nightlife.

Waltz Avenue in the new district, which is a gathering place for high-end restaurants, opera halls, hotels, casinos and other entertainment venues, gathers aristocratic and wealthy merchants at night, making business here more prosperous than during the day.

In a private room of the Babylon Dream Opera House, five middle-aged and elderly men sat around a round table, without saying a word, and the atmosphere was particularly grim.

This floor was chartered by them, and all of them were their elite guards, but these few people who stamped their feet and brought shocks to the Federation were also a little uneasy, after all, what they were going to do, if they didn't succeed, they might face extremely cruel retaliation.

An old man with silver-frost-stained sideburns knocked on the table with his hand, breaking the situation, "Everyone, I don't think we need to say much about what we are here for today. It's not so easy to get ashore now that you're on the boat, so instead of wasting time, it's better to come up with a plan now. ”

"We, the Edlaide family, provide information, and all the information can be handed over to you, and as for the personnel, you can discuss and decide for yourself. ”

Kersma's face was ugly, and this time she didn't know how many more people would die before the news could be delivered.

The others did not blame Kerma, because Edlaide's strength is in intelligence, there are not many knights in high-end forces, and there is only one big knight, and if he accidentally dies, he can be removed from the top twelve nobles.

Among the twenty-two top nobles of the Federation, ten families were only promoted in the past hundred years, but they were only used to fill the vacancy of the decaying big families, and their background was far inferior to the first twelve.

If you want to be on a par with the top twelve families, you must have at least one strong man at the level of a big knight, otherwise you won't have the confidence to speak, and now five of the top twelve families are gathered here, all of them are here to eliminate the Del family.

"A great knight. "The Ackerman family can also produce a great knight. "Four high-level knights. ”

"The George family can only dispatch one peak knight, but I can be responsible for contacting the Flying Wing Kingdom and getting them to devote more troops to the border and hold back most of the transcendents to whom the Del family belongs. ”

"According to reliable information from the Edlaide family, Ente has only a few days left to live, and no matter how many people fill it in, we will keep an eye on the moment he dies. ”

"During the time when the Del family artifact was not sent to the heir of Del, we had to get everything done. To be on the safe side, on the one hand, the two great knights dragged Wall and Stien, and on the other hand, the five knights went to Dolan to kill the heir of Del. ”

"We've already broken the treaty, and if we don't succeed, we'll have to fall two of our five families afterwards, so you must do your best. ”

These five old families are the families with the most friction with the Del family, and the families with the largest interest disputes, in the case of the Del family's growing power, if they don't take advantage of this golden opportunity, they will be defeated by the Del family sooner or later by the top aristocratic class.

This time it was a big gamble, and if you win, although you still have to deal with the counterattack of the diehard faction of the Del family, it is worth it to solve the big problem of the henchmen. If you lose, the three families with only one junior knight will be in danger, and you will have to sacrifice two families to appease Del's anger.

If it weren't for the fact that these three families had a really bad relationship with the Del family, either there was a fundamental conflict of interest, or a monstrous feud, the Del family would have cleaned them up sooner or later, and they didn't want to risk doing such a thing.

In the past two hundred years, it is not that no one has assassinated the heir of Del, but the Del family is well protected, and then the Del family directly retaliates and kills the mastermind family, because of the existence of the owner of the Del family, everyone does not dare to let go of a fart, and the two top families are destroyed in this way.

But this time the situation is different, in the past, I didn't know the death date of the head of the Del family, and often let the Del family transition smoothly, this time the news leaked out, everyone knows, there is a basis for joint efforts, and even the alliance with the enemy Flying Wing Kingdom, if the Del family is not killed, then there is no need to think about this kind of thing in the future.

First of all, they provoked civil strife in the area ruled by the Del family, and the army of the Flying Wing Kingdom pressed the territory, as well as some of their secret hands to fish in troubled waters, containing most of the Del family's forces and reducing the guards protecting the heirs of the Del family.

When Ente, the peak knight, falls, that is, when the Del family is the weakest, kill the heir of the Del family, and everything will be over. If the heir is in the area ruled by the Del family, it will be more difficult for them to attack, but Dolan Town is not, so let this arrogant and arrogant Del family die!

A series of detailed and tense arrangements were made under the discussion of several people, and no matter what factors drove them together, they all had a common purpose, which was to eliminate the Del family.

And don't look at the fact that there are only five families involved on the surface, and there are many people who secretly stumble on the Del family, they don't dare to show their heads just because they are afraid of the cruel methods of the Del family, and if they are burned, they will be ruined.

"It's all a group of short-sighted guys, if everyone worked together when the Del family rose, there would be no such situation today, and there were people who didn't even dare to join forces, and they were as careful as rats in a stinky ditch when they had a meeting. ”

Kersma complained about those big nobles who had a thief's heart but no thief's courage, and if everyone did it together, the Edlaide family would not have to bear such a heavy loss.

"A boat is leaking, and two of the ten people on board must jump into the sea to ensure that the boat does not sink, will you choose to sacrifice yourself for the sake of others?"

"The other great nobles are not stupid, but they are different from our five families, either they are not strong enough, or they are not as deep as we are in conflict with the Del family. ”

"They don't want to see the rise of the Del family, but they know that we will be the first to rush forward, and even if we fail, we can shake the foundation of the Del family. The strength of his own family is not reduced, but the other families are losing both, this is the best choice. If it weren't for the deep grudges between our George family and the Del family, the George family would have done the same. ”

Kersma snorted coldly, "Aren't they worried that the Del family is so strong that no one can govern it? When the Del family is able to overwhelm all the families, will they have time to regret it? With so many selfish intentions, they can only bring about their own destruction." ”

The old man who spoke at the beginning sneered, "Kerma, you're still too young. People can be selfish to the point where even they can be affected, but as long as disaster does not befall them, they will look indifferently at the tragedy that has happened to others. ”

"Only when things are beyond their control do they know how stupid they are, and the most ridiculous thing is not that they can't see through it, but that they see through it but pretend to be smart, and as a result, they dig a good grave for themselves. In the process of the rise of the Del family, it was not all their efforts, but also the indulgence of several families, who thought that they could use the Del family to weaken the strength of their opponents, but in the end they also wiped out their own family. ”

"It's the Jones family, the family whose surname should be engraved on the Pillar of Fame"

When the five major families in the Eastern Capital were discussing how to deal with the Del family, far away in the Peter district, a meeting was also being held within the Del family.

"That's my plan. The corners of Ente's mouth twitched, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.

It was a very formal conference room, with long tables and more than a dozen chairs around it, and in addition to Ent, who was sitting in the first seat, there were five chairs sitting on people.

They are Steward Wall, Steen the Guardian, Doron, the head of foreign affairs, Anks, the chief of operations, and Casio, one of the generals of the Southern Army.

Casio pondered for a moment and directly objected, "Lord of the family, this plan is too risky, we don't know how many people have jumped out to deal with the Del family, using the young master as bait, if the other party puts the main force on the young master's side, the young master will be in danger." ”

Although Casio, who is a general in the south, is famous, he is not even the commander of the southern army, and he actually sits here and dares to oppose Ente's plan.

The others, including Ente, didn't have an unhappy look, and Ente just shook his head slightly, "Casio, you're too conservative. ”

"The first question is that I don't know how many people deal with the Del family, I can tell you unequivocally that there are no more than six families that will stand up head-on, and I know more about the selfishness of the nobles than you. ”

"Suppose that there are six families, at most six big knights, and several of them are dying of aging, how much combat power can they have. They will never dare to let those old bones come out and do it, stay at home and survive for a few years, and if they come out to fight, they may die on the spot. At that time, no matter what happens to the Del family, they will definitely be gnawed to the point that they will not even have a bone left. ”

"So, in terms of high-end combat power, the enemy can dispatch a maximum of three or four big knights, which is similar to ours, and this is only the worst plan. Without knowing that Casio is a big knight, plus the Thunder Bead, even if the three big knights come to intercept our transport team, they will have to be hated. ”

"As for your fear that the enemy will encircle and annihilate Charon, it is obviously impossible. In the past two hundred years, the Del family has destroyed seven top families and seized two real weapons, in addition to the Thunder Bead, there is also the Glory Blessing. ”

The dead aura on Ente's face was very strong, and everyone present could also detect his weakness, but at this time, Ente was more rational than usual, his eyes were shining, and he calmly analyzed the situation, "Thunder Bead They don't know, but they have all seen it with the Glory Blessing, with this real weapon to protect the manor, even the Great Knight level will not be able to enter within two days, and they will never divide the already small amount of strength to do useless work." ”

"Maybe they have other options, such as internal destruction, or other artifacts to counter the Radiant Protection. Casio asked relentlessly.

"The real weapon of the Mutrin family can forcibly lead people into the blessing of light, but that real weapon like chicken ribs can only carry a few knights at most, and Renault can solve it. ”

"Okay, Casio, needless to say, Charon is my son, and I have left a secret weapon on the side of the manor, and I believe that the guests who visit will be surprised before they die."
