Chapter 121: Guild Reform

Vasily was also excited to see Bert: "It's good to come back if you come back, this is not the place to talk." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info If the Praetorian Guards see it, it might affect your father's side. Come, come with me to the guild first, and I'll tell you about the events of the year on the way. ”

It turned out that since that day, the remnants of the Assassins had escaped from Lisbon through the tunnels dug by the Assassin Guild in the early years. The Assassins took up camp in a lakeside town less than fifty miles outside of Lisbon. This was originally a foothold for members of a branch set by the guild before entering Beijing, but in the past few decades, the strength of the Assassin Guild has been declining day by day, and there are not as many people in the branch as before, they all enter the guild directly, and this place has been slowly abandoned. Now there is only an old butler in charge of it for the time being, which proves that this is still the property in the name of the Assassins' Guild.

However, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse after all, and this piece of land in the Assassins' Guild is still very luxurious. Although it is only a subordinate town of Lisbon, the town has a permanent population of nearly 20,000 people, and even has its own city walls. Because the mountain to the north is not steep, Lakeside Town has also built a row of walls on the north side. At the top of the hill there are lookouts every ten miles, and the lake to the south of Lakeside Town is so large that there is only one bridge over the entire lake. Geographically, Lakeside Town can be regarded as easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, there are 1,000 Praetorian Guards and mercenaries from all over the world deployed in Lakeside Town all year round, and it takes at least 50,000 troops to take this town. But it is very embarrassing that Lakeside Town is not a strategic location, and it is simply impossible for an enemy who wants to attack Lisbon to ignore this small walled town. Moreover, the lakeside town is located east of Lisbon, and the coastline stretching in this direction is all the territory of the imperial nobility, unless the imperial nobles rebel or the navy of the Songhai Empire invades from the eastern part of the empire, the town will basically not encounter any war.

The Assassins' Guild covered nearly 100 acres of land in the town, and in addition to housing and land, there was also a lot of money and shop investment, all of which depended on the work of the elder. Perhaps the elder had already expected such a day, so he first arranged such a place for his son to rise again. Lakeside was also the first place for the Assassins' Guild to serve as a refuge outside of Lisbon. While the elder is alive, Lakeside Town will definitely need an elder to be stationed all year round.

The Assassins cleaned the room as soon as they arrived in Lakeside, and they had to stay there until the guild became strong again. Since Princip was the only elder who returned with Frank at that time, and the older generation of the guild died and fled, many things could no longer be maintained. The crowd originally wanted to elect Frank as president to lead the overall situation, but after all the previous events, he was unwilling to take the position of president again. In his fragile heart, all the uncles who cared about him treating him like a son were all killed by him, and in this guilt, he would not be the president anyway. Several old people also understood his thoughts, so they didn't force him anymore. After they had discussed, they asked all the Assassins to put aside their original work and devote themselves to clearing the fields. Originally, the guild had dozens of acres of land, at least it wouldn't starve these loyal followers.

Frank arranged for someone to return to Lisbon to investigate the development of events and the situation of Bert and others. But one bad news came back one after another. The guild headquarters fell, and several of the Elders and high-ranking Assassins were killed. The Praetorian Guard, having received the news, sent troops into the headquarters, which has now been completely blocked. Upon hearing the news, Frank bit his lip without saying a word, and bright red blood slid down his jaw and dripped to the ground. As soon as the first Assassins left, Erin and Jingwei hurried back with the second group of Assassins. Bert was attacked, his fate unknown, and the assassin who attacked him was teleported at the same time. After suffering a series of blows, Frank could no longer hold on and fainted on the spot. Vasily and Princip immediately carried him in. Wu Xian arranged for them to go back to rest, and sent a number of people to report the search for Baron Bert Harvey to the various branches of the Assassin Guild.

The next day, Erin came to say goodbye and went out to find Bert herself. Frank originally wanted to go with her, but she refused, on the grounds that she and Jingwei could use time teleportation magic to quickly travel around the continent, and it would be a burden to bring someone who didn't know magic. Moreover, the Assassins' Guild is now in ruins, and it is inseparable from Frank. A high-level time magician and a hidden little girl, although it looks easy to bully, but if anyone dares to provoke them without long eyes, it is estimated that they will die miserably. Frank still knows a lot about their abilities and tempers, so he can't say anything more. Before leaving, Erin also left a small magic teleportation circle in the guild, which can quickly teleport small letters and other things. And tell them that if there is news from Bert, use this teleportation circle to deliver a message to her.

Not long after sending Eileen away, a third piece of bad news came. The Praetorian Guard began a massive search for the Assassins' Guild. Frank sent several Assassins who had been captured by the Praetorian Guards to the mountain, and pretended to be a local tyrant to receive the Praetorian Guards. Two people with their own ghosts met, and it was Caesar who had met at the gates of Lisbon that year. In fact, what Frank didn't know was that Caesar was searching for the Assassin Guild this time because he had something to ask for. But Caesar was dissatisfied with the order itself, and naturally he would not talk about it everywhere, but just go through the motions, and if he met the best, he reported it if he didn't. And the latter is worried there, after all, they have met once in the past, how can they have time to discover some problems in Caesar's words. In fact, Caesar caught more thugs and thieves in one day than all the current assassins in his family, how could he remember such a little guy he met several years ago. Not to mention that he was still a child back then, but now four or five years have passed, and he has already grown into the appearance of a young man.

In short, just like that, the two missed this official exchange, and the two who were pregnant with ghosts said goodbye to each other after a few words.
