Chapter 119: Psychopathic Gunman
Orchestrated another assassination?
Albert's brow arched slightly, as if he had thought of something.
Todd had been away for a while, and had hurried back after the incident.
The assassination that Mr. Ludon said was.
"Ahem."
A cough interrupted Albert's thoughts.
The secretary general in the corner of the carriage asked awkwardly,
"Mr. Ludon, do you need me to get out of the car and avoid it?"
"No, you don't."
Ludon was very calm and said bluntly,
"Planning and execution are two different things, and no one can condemn me with a few words."
Before he set out, Luton sent a telegram to Hannibal, asking him to pick an obedient psychopath from St. Peter's sanatorium.
Originally, something would have happened in the theater.
But in Ludon's plan, no one would die.
Reality is always a wild horse, and no one knows where it will go.
The sudden intrusion of the strange Assassin disrupted Lutdon's plans, and he did not hesitate to push the quartermaster out as a shield.
In terms of the body armor that Ludon is wearing, even if the other party empties the bullet, there is a high probability that Luden will not die!
However, Ludon didn't want to gamble.
And this assassination also clearly told Luden that the small United Kingdom has a tendency to divide!
In broad daylight, Lang Lang Lang, someone actually assassinated the governor?
Today they dare to assassinate the Governor, and tomorrow what they dare to do, Lu Deng does not dare to think!
This assassination, like opening Pandora's box, made Luton never have peace in the future.
Unless he is willing to hide in a dark corner, incognito for the rest of his life, hide from being discovered.
However, this takes the fun out of it.
The moment he saw the strange assassin, Luton knew that this matter had to be bloody, and it would have to be dead.
Only when someone dies can they make a big fuss.
The one in the deep palace will not be able to sit still!
Otherwise, the assassination would have turned into a pistol misfire, silently pressed down as if it hadn't happened.
So, the hapless quartermaster died, before he died in a bright future, and fell outside the door of the pinnacle of life.
Luden, on the other hand, stepped on the steps made of the other party's bones and took a step forward.
After the Eternals leave, there will be many changes, and these changes can be figured out with a little time to study.
First of all, the war on land, which will soon subside.
Without the mastermind behind the fire, people who have been harassed by the war for many years will soon reach various reconciliation agreements.
Maybe a hero will be born and revive the Divine Empire.
Perhaps the Highlands Republic is restored.
Maybe the barbarians of the northern snowfields will rise
There are too many possibilities for the future, but this kind of chaotic war alone is unsustainable.
Secondly, the situation in the small United Kingdom will be volatile.
The chaos on the land is because of the arch fire of the Eternals.
The stability of the small United Kingdom is also due to the ballast stone of the Eternals.
On the one hand, the old king threw a trap, and both sides were prosperous and lost, and it was impossible for him to go to war against Luden.
On the other hand, he needs Qiyun's technology to continue his life, and he is full of yearning for the legendary eternal life.
Now that the Eternals are gone, times have changed.
The old king and Ludon must re-examine their relationship and determine how they should get along in the future.
But neither of them made any moves!
With the acquiescence of the old king, there are even some actions against Ludon, which are still continuing!
Tonight, Lutdon saw that the quartermaster had actually given a large order for munitions to Lutden's rivals.
Even if the other party's production capacity, selling price, product quality, etc. are not as good as the company, they still won this order!
Moreover, after eating the order, the strength of the other party will expand rapidly, and it will soon be able to close the gap between the two sides.
All this was acquiesced by the old king, and even hinted at!
The death of the quartermaster was not only a pretext for Luden, but also an opportunity for the two sides to renegotiate.
If things get small, they will be fooled.
The matter is so big that there is no room for discussion.
Now things are not big or small, just right, so that both sides can be decent.
The seemingly promising quartermaster is, in fact, a dispensable pawn that can be discarded at any time.
Lutdon had no doubt that when the old king wanted to negotiate, he would even take the initiative to find someone to assassinate the quartermaster.
Now, it's just an acceleration.
These things, Lundon understands, the secretary general is clear, only Albert seems to understand.
It wasn't the first time he had seen death.
He just didn't expect death to be so cheap when the Eternals left.
If it weren't for Ludon's arrangements in advance, the person who died tonight would probably be Mr. Ludon, or himself!
This kind of thing gave Albert a sense of illusion.
If Mr. Ludon, or His Majesty, had been killed so easily.
Is the pinnacle of power that people aspire to really so sacred?
In the face of bullets, all beings are equal.
Except for the eternal.
With these haphazard thoughts, the carriage stopped, and Albert followed Ludon and got out of the carriage.
Someone took him somewhere else to rest.
The Secretary-General, on the other hand, took Mr. Ludon with him to the king.
In the dimly lit room, the old man was drowsy and seemed to fall into a coma at any moment.
After the meeting, there was no exchange of pleasantries.
"I only have three years."
The old man spoke, his voice hoarse, but much more powerful than before, repeated,
"Three years."
According to common sense, without the support of Qiyun Technology, he would have died a long time ago.
The Empress promised to let him live for another three years, just to make the story more exciting.
Lutten replied earnestly,
"Three years is not short, and you can do a lot of things."
"I want the most powerful kingdom, no, the Empire!"
The king seemed to be talking to himself, completely ignoring Luden,
"Let the world think of my name when they mention this empire, and let the sun stay in the territory of the empire every second"
With a whisper, a fire seemed to ignite in the depths of the king's eyes.
He has had a great time working with Ludon over the past decade.
Even if there are no Eternals, they will be the strongest if they continue to develop according to the current trend!
As long as he and Ludon continue to work together.
However, there are conditions for cooperation.
What you want, what I want, what can I give.
These are all things to talk about.
Whether it can be negotiated or not depends on tonight.
The old king retracted his gaze and said coldly,
"The company can no longer be responsible for munitions."
Ludon is-for-tat,
"The enemy on land is stronger than expected, and in the vast majority of cases, high morale cannot erase the gap in equipment."
The company's munitions, if not sold to the small United Kingdom, will be sold to someone else.
The old king continued,
"Banks, Fortune Exchange, Mint"
Ludon nodded without hesitation,
"Split, restitution, confiscation."
These were the pursees of the little United Kingdom, the economic lifeblood of the kingdom, which had been in the hands of Ludon before, and the king needed a suitable reason to get it back.
"And."
The two sides talked about a lot.
Only there is no talk about tonight's assassination.
The conversation continued until the second half of the night, when the old king gradually lost his strength, and even fell asleep several times.
He bred his spirit and asked the last question,
"Tonight's assassination?"
Luden, who had been talking all night, was a little hoarse and sipped tea.
The Secretary-General, who had been observing the dialogue, tentatively proposed a solution.
"It's not as good as . We claim that the gunman is mentally ill? ”
