Disconnected from the projection of the Presbyterian Church, Duke Yoroc returns to reality.

Thinking back to the meaningful gaze of the Great Elder just now, his expression changed, and finally he couldn't help but scold:

"These old guys...... One by one, all of them are old foxes! ”

With that, he paced around the room, eventually sighing and pulling out the smaller teleportation crystal.

The crystal light changed, and an illusory figure appeared in it.

It was an emaciated figure in a mage's robe, with a magic workbench behind him with all sorts of bottles, cans, and devices, and he was busy with something in front of the magic table, as if he was doing magical research.

Feeling the summons, the emaciated figure in the crystal was slightly stunned.

However, he quickly reacted, hurriedly put down his work, came to the front of the crystal, and saluted respectfully to the Duke of Joroc, saying:

"Your Excellency, Lord Duke...... Finished the presbytery? ”

Seeing the bottles and cans projected from the crystal, Duke Yorok's face turned dark, and his heart suddenly became angry:

"Jurst! I should have said that, as the person directly in charge of the Returning Star Project, you should have more snacks and don't keep messing with these bottles and cans! ”

"The Lilac War will fail, and you guys who don't do your job all day long will know that it's inseparable! It's not even clear that he was betrayed by Red Lilac! ”

The figure projected in the teleportation crystal is none other than Count Jurst.

It's just that at this moment, this Blood Count has no majesty and momentum to preside over the remote meeting of the Ness Clan, and he looks like a magician who is obsessed with magical research.

He blocked the magic workbench behind him slightly, smiled wryly, and coughed dryly:

"Ahem...... Lord Duke, you know, a long life is too boring, and the only way we can pass the time is to find some hobbies that suit us, just as you like to play chess with the Elven Queen......"

Looking at the Duke of Yorok's darkening face as he explained, Jurster suddenly realized that he had made a mistake, and quickly stopped talking and changed the subject:

"Uh...... Lord Duke, our men have stopped infiltrating Castel, is your meeting going well? Contact me, is there anything else I can do? ”

The Duke of Yoroc took a deep breath and said:

"The Great Elder has ordered that all items related to the Thorn Rose pattern be disposed of immediately, but ...... Castel is an important part of the Returning Star Project and cannot be abandoned. ”

Jurst's eyes widened:

"Dispose of items related to the Thorn Rose pattern? To put it this way...... Is there really a god behind Castel? ”

"Wait, the Great Elder said you can't give up Castel? Is this for us to continue to infiltrate Castel? But...... Isn't there a resurrected deity behind Castel? It can't be for us to report to the Holy Court that there is a resurgence of evil gods, right? ”

Duke Yoroc frowned:

"What to report? Not to mention whether the report is useful for a god who can lie dormant under the nose of the Divine Court for hundreds of years, is this idea of attracting the Divine Court at this juncture to make the plan to return to the stars completely fail? ”

Jurst asked respectfully:

"That'...... What do you mean? ”

The Duke of Yoroc thought for a moment and said:

"The Great Elder said that Castel is an important part of the Star Return Project, and it cannot be abandoned......"

"For us, we just need Castre's support and backing as we execute our homecoming plan."

"Gaining support is not just a means of bringing them into their sphere of influence, but also an option to make the other side an ally through negotiations and deals!"

Jurst's heart moved slightly:

"You mean, Lord Duke...... Wooing Castelle? ”

Duke Yoroc nodded:

"I had the idea, but ...... It all depends on what happens on Castell's side. ”

Jurst's expression was shocked:

"I see what you mean, I'll be summoned to further expedite the background check on Earl Castel......"

"That's not enough ......"

The Duke of Joroc shook his head and said:

"The suspension of the infiltration has greatly delayed our plans, and now that we have decided to make a change, we need to move a little faster."

"You mean ......?"

"I intend to send a mission to Castel, on behalf of the mission of our Ness Clan, to speak directly to the Castells."

The Duke of Yoroc is a quiet tunnel.

Count Jurst's eyes widened:

"Send a mission? Direct communication? ”

"This ...... It is said that the Earl of Castel is reviewing the bloodlines of the Northlands, targeting our Ness Clan, and will it be ...... directly if a mission is sent at this time?"

Duke Joroc interrupted him:

"Of course I know there's a risk, but ...... This also represents sincerity. ”

Count Jurst's heart moved, and he said:

"I see what you mean, I'll arrange to form an embassy to negotiate with the Castel family."

Duke Yoroc shook his head:

"An ordinary mission is not enough, and since it is necessary to express sincerity, the matter must be led by the earl."

"Although the human earl is not the same as our earl, the earl as a representative also represents our respect and sincerity!"

Hearing this, Count Jurst subconsciously looked at Duke Yoroc, and Duke Yorok also looked at him:

"Jurst, you are the person directly responsible for the Returning Star Project, and no one knows better than you about the specific process of the Returning Star Project."

"I want to ...... You know what I mean, right? ”

Count Jurst: ......

……

The Bloodseeker's trail adds a shimmer of uncertainty to Charlotte's censorship plans.

However, apart from the attack on Sebas, Castel was no longer seen in the following period.

Even the black dragon seems to have disappeared.

Viscount Lean-Castel's censorship in the southern part of the county of Castel was also going well, and although it was inevitable that it would be opposed by the local nobility, with the strong support of the Castells, the small and medium-sized nobles of the realm had no choice but to refuse.

Charlotte, who stayed in the capital city of North Harbor, received progress reports from the old viscount almost every day, and to her surprise, the Ness clan had really retreated completely.

It is also for this reason that the old viscount's actions went smoothly, and the abandonment of the bloodline made those nobles with different intentions completely have no choice, and finally had to honestly accept the review of the new lord.

At the same time, a Carrick galleon from the Kingdom of Falling Stars, carrying a delegation of Ness, led by Count Jurst, sailed into the harbor of the North Harbor.
