Chapter 54: The End of Betrayal

In the middle of the night, the city of Altai is lit up with lights, and the city walls are constantly patrolled by defenders. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed and rushed up the city wall, without alerting any of the defenders.

In the palace of the city lord of Altai City, the city lord has not slept at this time, and some staff members are discussing things in the city lord's hall.

"Now, there is news from the royal family of the Clark Empire that the Shenyang Empire has reached an agreement with the Nas Empire, and once the war breaks out, the Nas Empire will send a reinforcement army to attack our Clark. If this is the case, it is necessary for Altai City to strengthen its defenses. One of them said, and the man kept pointing to something on the map on the table.

On the map, the territory of the Clark Empire, the territory of the Nas Empire, and part of the Shenyang Empire are marked. There are many arrows that indicate the direction, and there are also many instructions that indicate what the arrows do.

"Although this is a border city, the imperial family doesn't know what to think, and the garrison is only a thousand people. ”

"There is no way, in order to prepare for the annexation of the Shenyang Empire, the royal family of the Clark Empire can be said to be fully prepared, first assassinating the most promising Princess Alice, and then getting the support of certain organizations. Also, through mass conscription, nearly half of the young men joined the army. At the same time, troops were drawn from various border cities and deployed on the border defense line of the Shenyang Empire. "The lord knew what the arrows meant, and some of them represented the direction of the route that the Clark Empire had drawn troops from the border cities.

"Fortunately, although Altai City is also a border city between Clark and Shenyang, there is a Phantom Forest in between, and it is impossible for them to pass through such a large forest. Someone pointed to a shadow section of the map, which was the border area of the Three Kingdoms, the Phantom Forest that Horst's advance team had traversed.

"My lord, anyway, you have to be on guard. Now that the Nas Empire and the Shenyang Empire have reached such an agreement, I think the Shenyang Empire may send an army to bypass the Nas, in which case the situation in Altai City will be very passive. ”

"Nonsense, you don't look at how many days it takes to detour the Nas Empire from the northern frontier of the Shenyang Empire. What's more, now that the Rhine is about to break off, how can they have extra forces to distribute. Someone retorted, saying they didn't support the man's point of view.

The staff argued with each other, and the lord stared at the map with a frown.

At this time, in the night, a black shadow rushed up the courtyard wall of the city lord's mansion, moving rapidly, but no one noticed it.

The killing machine suddenly appeared, and the air seemed to freeze.

In the castle lord's hall, a dart suddenly passed over the table where the staff and the castle lord were discussing together, and with a "thump-" sound, it was nailed to the wall of the hall.

"Who-" The city lord reacted very quickly, but in the next quarter of an hour, a dart was nailed to his throat, and another dart was nailed to his head, and it was obvious that the city lord was dead and could not die again.

"Quick! There is a ......" Many staff members panicked, but before the sound could be fully spread, they saw darts stuck in the Adam's apple of the necks of one staff member, and blood flowed.

Another flash of cold light stabbed the temples of every staff member.

In the city lord's mansion, it was still silent, and even the exclamations of the staff just now failed to attract anything.

In the early morning of the next day, the gate of Altai City was opened, and a succession of soldiers marched into it from the direction of a forest, and then all the flags of the Clark Empire on the city wall were replaced by those of the Shenyang Empire.

From this moment on, Altai City will be subordinate to the Shenyang Empire.

In the City Lord's Mansion, in the City Lord's Hall, the bodies of the original City Lord and his staff have been carried away, and the hall has been cleaned.

"Victor, it's really yours. Saipton said with some admiration, "It is worthy of being a third-order assassin, and he actually killed the entire city lord's mansion quietly. ”

"When you say that, you are a little exaggerated to Victor, he is a third-order assassin. In terms of true strength, he was able to easily kill a fifth-order mage. What's more, what about these government officials in the Altai City Lord's Mansion who can't even be called mage apprentices?" said with a smile, "Unscathed, and no one noticed, you assassin is the most dangerous." ”

Shalene's words are right, assassins are sudden, and no one would have thought that there would be assassins to assassinate the lord of Altai City. But, Victor did just that.

This assassination plan was still proposed by Victor, as the captain of the advance team, how could he not do anything? Naturally, he had to show his housekeeping skills, and he couldn't let these boys underestimate him. Not long after they walked out of the Phantom Forest, Victor implemented this plan.

"I have already informed the military department, and the military department has replied that the Rhine will be cut off in the next two days, so that our 50,000-strong army will launch a surprise attack plan. Victor put the magic sound stone back in his pocket, "This matter will be left to the general who commands the army, and the task of our advance team is completed." However, we will have to stay here for a while in case the Clark Empire counterattacks. ”

When Horst heard this, he probably knew what Victor meant.

First of all, Altai City, as the general city of the Clark Empire, can form a rivalry with the Rhine Fortress. Once this place is occupied by the Shenyang Empire, then using Altai City as a base, the advance can sweep through the southwest of the Clark Empire, and the retreating troops can enter the Nas Empire or the Phantom Forest.

It's like an awl, and it's stuck in the key point of Clarke's empire at once. The city of Altai is this key point, and at the same time, it is used as a key point in case the Clark Empire attacks and there is a crisis on the northern frontier. As long as Altai City sends a large army, it can harass the southwest of the Clark Empire, causing the Clark Empire to be unable to deal with each other.

The feeling of not being able to take care of each other is extremely annoying, and this can greatly limit the actions of the Clark Empire.

Secondly, Altai City is backed by the Nas Empire and can be supported by the Nas Empire, and the reinforcements of the same Nas Empire can form an essential threat to the southwest of the Clark Empire through Altai City.

At a deeper level, due to the formation of a rivalry with the Rhine Fortress, it has an extremely far-reaching role and significance for the entire Shenyang Empire to declare war on the Clark Empire.

"If the Clark Empire wants to get the specific situation of Altai City, I'm afraid it will take some time, after all, it is still a while away from the capital of the Clark Empire, let alone a sudden attack by you, an assassin. Barsarolo smiled, "I can finally live a peaceful life for a while, since I am stationed, then I can enjoy life with peace of mind." ”

"The big war is about to begin, and it's better to prepare. The Rhine Fortress needs to carry out an attack on the southwestern part of the Clark Empire here, so that it can stop the full-scale attack of the Clark Empire, and it cannot be taken lightly in any way. Victor shook his head and said that although he won Altai City, it did not mean that he would be able to rest easy.

While everyone was discussing, a soldier quickly walked into the city lord's mansion and whispered a few words to Victor.

Then everyone saw Victor's face beaming.

"I'll tell you good news, the children of the Ao family, there are people in the Ao Mansion. Victor smiled.

The first thing the 50,000-strong army did after entering the city was to disarm the army that had defended the city. And to imprison these army soldiers, for the advance team, the later the Clark Empire knew about it, the safer they were. At the same time, search for the Ao family.

It is inevitable to search the Ao family. As a family that defected to another country, the people of the Shenyang Empire would definitely not be able to spare him.

"Take me to see it!" Horst's face was solemn, as if he was a little angry.

"I've been arrested, and I'm munching on steamed buns in prison. Victor smiled, "The Ao Mansion has also been sealed off, but the main body of the Ao family is not here. ”

"Who's caught?"

"Otis and O'Neill. ”

"Very well, their lives are over today. ”

"You said what was in my heart, anyone in this kind of family must die. "Sharin is usually extremely gentle, but at the moment she also seems a little vicious.

Of course, Shalene's purpose is not the same as Horst's. There is a definite reason why Horst wants Otis and O'Neill to die. His girlfriend was once insulted by such a dirty family, and no one could swallow this breath like this. What's more, the Ao family has betrayed the Shenyang Empire, and even if Horst doesn't kill the two of them, the two of them must die.

This is the Shenyang Empire's warning to traitors, and at the same time it is also a deterrent.

At night, the soldiers in the prison, carrying food boxes, opened the gatehouse of a cage.

There were two people in the cage, both of whom were bound by chains hand and foot.

"Let us out, Lao Tzu is the heir of the Ao family!" O'Neill grabbed the soldier by the collar.

"The Ao family is a ball, isn't it also here to eat leftovers?" someone in the cage next door said sarcastically, "I heard that you are still defectors from the Shenyang Empire? Now, Altai City is already the territory of the Shenyang Empire, and you don't have to talk to them." ”

Now, Otis and O'Neill's hands and feet are chained, and the sound of "clang" has attracted the attention of many people.

Although they are mages, they are relatively low-level mages after all, and their mana is sealed, so they are simply wasted now.

"After eating this bowl of send-off rice, it's time for you to hit the road. The soldier said indifferently, he is a member of the 50,000 army of the Shenyang Empire, and he has heard a lot about the Ao family, this kind of imperial scum deserves to die.

Otis curled up in a corner, not saying a word, his face sallow to indicate that he was in an extremely unhealthy state.

"Eat or not!" the soldier was a little impatient.

After a while, Otis and O'Neill made a move, reluctantly eating the leftovers one bite at a time.

Tears flowed slowly, and no one would have thought that the dignified young master of the family yesterday had now been reduced to a prisoner, eating leftovers, or seeing off the meal.

"It's time for you to hit the road?" said the soldier indifferently, and the other people in the prison also craned their necks to look in this direction.

"On the road?"

"Yes. ”

The soldier didn't move, and after a few breaths, he saw O'Neill and Otis foaming at the mouth, convulsing all over their bodies, and black air currents immediately appeared on their faces, and the next moment their ears and noses were bleeding, and there was no sound of breathing.

"Dead?!" asked the other people in the cage who saw this scene.

"Yes. This is the end of betrayal of the motherland. The soldier said this, and kicked each of them the corpses of the two.

"Carry it out, pull the corpse to the Poison Crocodile Swamp, and feed those Poison Crocodile Monsters!"
