Chapter 109: The Count of Perran

The moment the god disappeared, Lin Tian took the girl and fell into a forest.

Just when the girl breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to make a statement to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian suddenly moved, knocked out the girl who had closed her beautiful eyes, and then picked up the woman, and disappeared in this blood-colored land in a few jumps.

The ground began to tremble, and a short time later, a group of knights painted with tulips rushed into the ruined battlefield, carefully examined each corpse, and after making sure that there were no fish that had slipped through the net, cut off everyone's heads, pinned them to their horses, and burned them all before leaving the battlefield.

Under the dark night, Lin Tian, who was witnessing this scene, moved slightly, he just saw the heads of those knights who had already been pinned on their war horses, and they were clearly those masked people who had escaped, but he didn't expect that tonight, someone would help him deal with these troubles, and these knights looked like they were clearly tulip knights from Noah's royal family!

O members of the Royal Order!

Lin Tian quietly took the girl to his own foothold, the basement of Alpha's house, and his own sub-base.

In a single room separated by a cloth, the girl opened her eyes gently.

There were no windows or curtains, only a magic lamp hanging in the air, emitting a soft white light.

The floor was covered with warm wool carpets, it was clean, and the air did not smell at all.

The girl suddenly noticed that someone was looking at her, and she raised her head sharply and looked at Lin Tian who was standing in front of her.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

"Ransom. ”

"I didn't!"

"It doesn't matter. Lin Tian smiled: "I can give you 3 days to prepare." ”

The girl was slightly stunned, and asked rhetorically: "It seems that I can't escape, may I ask Mr. Assassin, who asked you to kidnap me?"

"It's just a task, but if you can afford the ransom, I don't mind asking for money. Lin Tian sat down and said, "Okay, miss, I think we should have a good talk." ”

"Talk?" the girl sighed, "Is it Duke Morse?, or did His Majesty the current Noah Kingdom send you over?"

"Neither. Lin Tian's answer made the girl's beautiful eyes light up.

It seems, vaguely, that she saw a glimmer of hope for freedom again.

"Really?" the girl was a little unsure.

"It doesn't make sense for me to lie to you. Lin Tian said.

The girl nodded slightly, indeed, what is there for the other party to deceive now?

"You...... Is it really just because you want gold for the mission?" the girl asked, still a little uneasy.

"This is nature, 1 million gold coins, as long as you get it, you are free. The corners of Lin Tian's mouth curled up and he smiled.

"1 million!" The girl smiled bitterly: "Unless I am the patriarch of the Peilan family, how can I get so much money?"

"Peilan family!" Lin Tian deliberately exclaimed softly: "You are actually from the Earl Peilan's family, the founding wealthy! With the Peilan Chamber of Commerce and the several large gold mines in your family, you will also be short of gold coins?"

"You really don't know?" the girl sighed lightly and whispered to Lin Tian about the Peilan family.

After being the founding father, the Perrin family did not mix well in the imperial capital, unlike the Duke Morse family, who had geniuses to support the entire family from generation to generation, but the Perrin family was not as good as the generation, the head of the family was often mediocre and incompetent, and the members were greedy for enjoyment, until the generation of Crayya's father, and even faced the crisis of being cut off!

Fortunately, there is no endless road, just when the Perrin family is at the end of the road, a good news came, in a mountain area of the Perrin family, a rich stock of gold veins was discovered! The mining of several large-scale gold mines made the Perrin family begin to recover its financial resources, plus the original connections, Craya ran the family chamber of commerce with the support of his father, and in just three or four years, the Perrin Chamber of Commerce became one of the largest giant societies in the kingdom.

The revival of the family is only in the moment, but those jealous or greedy nobles are obviously unwilling to appear such a wealthy family to seize their own rights, so all kinds of open and secret battles are gradually launched.

Under such circumstances, Crayya's father, the patriarch of the Perrin family and the successor of the Count of Perran, died unexpectedly!

And the heir to the direct line! Only a woman who is now only 18 years old is Crea!

Let a woman become the patriarch and inherit the title of earl? is that there is a rift within the Perrin family, although it is legally reasonable to say that a woman is the king, not to mention that Correya still has the royal blood of the Faxi Kingdom, but in the past thousands of years, how many women can really sit on such a position?

As a result, some side family members also began to move around in an attempt to ascend to the throne.

Today's human kingdom, although it is very divided in terms of political and military power, but in terms of culture and etiquette, relying on the tradition of the monotheistic religion of Carlos, the traditional majesty of the empire is sacred and cannot be violated, that is, His Majesty the king must also abide by the traditional regulations set since the founding of the empire, and within one month after the death of the Count of Perrin, a grand and public ceremony of succession should be held to bestow the title of new Count of Perrin on his direct heir.

Obviously, many people are not happy to see this scene, even His Majesty the King, obviously not willing to let another wealthy family rise.

However, the Emperor and the Duke of Morse decided to hold a grand succession ceremony as usual, and the time was 3 days later!

The reason for sending someone to obstruct Kreya so that he could not arrive at the inheritance ceremony venue on time is obvious.

Lin Tian touched his chin and said, "In this way, your Peilan family is really degenerate, I'm afraid that even the elders of the direct family have betrayed you." ”

A look of pain flashed through Kreya, and she gritted her teeth, "I know. ”

"But I still have to come to this royal capital, even if what awaits me here is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire!"

"I still have to come! Otherwise, our Perrin family may really never be able to turn over again. ”

Lin Tian laughed and asked, "So, do you estimate that if you are gone, how will those nobles deal with you?"

"If I can't attend the succession ceremony. Claya gasped softly and whispered, "I guess the most likely thing is that my own uncle, Count Poti, will be elected to succeed to the Duke of Perran." ”

"In terms of bloodline, he is my father's younger brother, if I am not there, he is indeed very qualified, and this person is ruthless and extremely ambitious, the reason why I came to the imperial capital in such a hurry this time is because I heard that he has successfully lobbied the family elder to take over the Peilan Chamber of Commerce left by his father!"

Cleja bit her lip and shed blood: "The Perrin Chamber of Commerce is my father's brainchild, and I will never allow it to be taken away by others!"

"But...... It is rumored that my uncle has obtained the consent of the Duke of Morse, and even His Majesty the Emperor has a deep affection for him, and I think that my ambush this time is probably because he is planning it, after all, the leader of the masked men, Munch, is one of the chief guards of our family!"

"However, my struggle for the Archduke of Rhodes has been completely impossible because of the defeat of the Fassi Kingdom. ”

"Lord Assassin, I say this, do you think I still have a chance to offer a ransom?"

"If you don't have a chance, you have to create a chance!" Lin Tian approached Creya with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "You can stay here to recuperate, by the way, I don't think you will forget those aristocratic etiquette, after 3 days, I will make you the new earl of the Perrin family!"

"This can't be!" Cleya stood up excitedly, clenched her fists and looked at Lin Tian with a nervous expression.

This mysterious assassin with a beautiful smile actually told himself that he would make himself an earl!

This is impossible! If a day ago, the naΓ―ve self would have thought that the other party would not dare to do things because of his bloodline, maybe he could still believe it, but now the other party has long planned to tear his face and face a kingdom! What can this assassin do?

"Does he want to assassinate His Majesty the King and threaten him?" this absurd thought made Claire shake her head, the palace was heavily guarded, and there were countless magic traps and detection instruments, plus the tens of thousands of imperial city guards who lived in the palace and the royal knights who were so skilled that they were saint-level assassins, and they were afraid that they would have to be buried in it!

Lin Tian looked at Kreya's expression and knew that he didn't believe it, but he didn't want to explain, so he opened the stone door and left this secret room.

Outside the chamber, the vines of the Tree of Life had climbed most of the walls, and in the light of the scrolls of the return to the city, another batch of supplies had been brought by the Chosen One.

Looking at all this, Lin Tian smiled slightly, and looked forward to the ceremony coming soon.
