Act 203: Demonic Plague V

While the professionals were having a heated discussion, there was also a discussion on the side of the Tristram nobles. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The flames formed by many candles illuminate the spacious hall. The eyes of the middle-aged nobleman in the red robe stayed on the candle flame, looked at the smoke that slowly rose, and frowned without a trace.

"Ahem, ahem."

He deliberately lowered his cough so that more people would notice the remaining displeasure on his face, as well as the candle flame and smoke in front of him.

Due to demonic infestation, most of the special candles used by nobles and priests were lost, and only a few crude ordinary candles and oil lamps could be used, which meant more smoke, more unpleasant smells, and more unstable fire.

They like to nitpick on these things, especially in the case of such anxiety.

"Reas?"

The red-clothed nobleman tapped the soft table carpet with his index knuckles, finally revealing an obvious look of unslackness.

"Yes, father."

A younger nobleman responded clearly, and at the same time looked around at the nobles with different expressions, walked quickly to the side of the red-clothed nobleman, and leaned down.

"All these ordinary candles, father."

The young nobleman whispered in his ear, "I know what you mean... there are indeed some white bee candles here, but Priest Castle said that they should be used on pilgrimages, and counting the needs of the other nobles for the evening, the stock is no longer enough." ”

"I don't like so many excuses."

The red-clothed nobleman deliberately said loudly, and at the same time put his hand back where he was constantly knocking, let the eldest son hold it, and stood up, "I hope everyone will be a little more restrained, especially in the consumption of candles." ”

"It's a very important time, and the white bee candles should be used in meetings... For example, this time, the five Grand Dukes are present, but they can only use these candles, which is really undignified."

The nobles on the opposite side of the long table and on both sides nodded their heads despite their grim expressions.

They knew very well that this was just a scene arranged by the red-clothed nobles in order to justifiably seize the right to use the remaining white bee candles.

Even so, they couldn't point fingers at the red-clothed nobles, and the five Grand Dukes of Tristram were present, and he was still so arrogant, because the shelter here was actually the property of the red-clothed nobles. From the point of view of both general law and aristocratic law, the right to use the candle should belong to the red nobles.

Subsequently, the red-clothed nobles cooperated with several priests who had the right to speak, discussing some inconsequential things.

The meeting ended quickly, and everyone saluted and stood up, leaving their respective positions.

"It's just a candle, and it's worth making such a big fuss?"

Several women in the corner exchanged glances and looked puzzled.

"It's just a distraction, or a signal."

A certain frivolous nobleman walked quickly and hugged the beautiful young lady, with a sneer on his face: "He just repeatedly emphasized his master's position, hum, a few grand dukes made him so uneasy, what an old wreck." ”

"That's not true."

A somewhat majestic voice sounded from behind the nobleman, who hurriedly withdrew his hand, "Greetings, Grand Duke Del." ”

"Hmm."

The Grand Duke of Del glanced at the ladies beside the nobles, and they immediately looked startled, saluted with some trepidation, and left with the successive processions.

"Wool is a brilliant careerist, and you should know that he was a former priest at Tristram Church."

Del's eyes flickered, "It is not uncommon to become a nobleman as a priest, but it is strange that he was able to persuade the two archdukes to participate in another plan, relying on his previous status as a priest and the handle of some nobles." ”

"The plan is to get rid of the other two Grand Dukes, and Wool wants to sit in the highest position of Tristram, even if it is already in jeopardy, which is crazy."

"Therefore, he deliberately made this incompetent gesture, on the one hand, to relax the vigilance of other irrelevant nobles, and on the other hand, to warn you and me."

As soon as Grand Duke Del finished speaking, the frivolous-looking nobleman spread his hands helplessly, "Okay, okay, your city is too deep, with all due respect, these things don't mean anything." ”

"What did you say?"

Hearing the words "there is no meaning", Grand Duke Del was a little angry, and he even wondered if the man in front of him was still not the young Grand Duke, whether he had been dropped by the devil.

If it didn't make sense to gain hearts and minds and gain power, the situation wouldn't be so dire.

"Heh, as far as I know, we ordinary people can't decide the survival of Tristram."

The look on the frivolous nobleman's face was retracted, and there was a bit of solemnity, "Listen, once demons and monsters cross the protective barrier, whether they are nobles or commoners, they are just livestock waiting to be slaughtered... ”

Without waiting for the Grand Duke of Del to speak, the frivolous nobleman continued: "Only the professionals, the heroes who have repelled the monsters, they are the key. I've talked to them... Coming through a portal, their town is in a lot of supplies, and we can help. ”

"Supplies? You..."

Grand Duke Del was dumbfounded, basically the task of negotiating with the professional was carried out by some priests, and he didn't expect that the Grand Duke in front of him would negotiate with the professional to such a point without making a sound.

"Those people are different from us."

After a while, Grand Duke Del did not think that the idea of frivolous aristocracy was not feasible, but he was still afraid of the professional.

Certain traditional ideas were still firmly rooted in the mind of the Grand Duke of Del, and although he called those professionals heroes in his mouth, he was still very jealous of those who possessed great power and were beyond mortals. Basically the aristocracy thought like him, so they did not personally look for a professional like the frivolous aristocracy.

Moreover, countless ancient books and legends mention that those professionals are not really human.

"It's different, so what does it matter?"

A mocking look appeared on the frivolous aristocracy's face, "What about them?" What's the difference between those nobles and demons... Our partners are always changing, and only by adapting to this can we survive in this world. ”

"Back to the point, since you've brought it up, Grand Duke Del."

The frivolous aristocracy changed his words, his eyes shining, "You can join me, after all, professionals need a lot of materials, and I can't handle it alone." In addition to this, they are interested in other things. ”

"What's that?"

"I heard that it's an old man, well, it's a headache, there is no standard for finding people, and I don't understand what they are thinking. But the young lady told me that if we could find the old man, we would be eligible to be saved. ”

The frivolous aristocracy's answer made Archduke Del breathe.

"Aren't they going to save us?"

"I'll just say you're naΓ―ve, Grand Duke Del."

The frivolous aristocrat licked his lips, "There is no wasted lunch in the world. ”
