In the room, Yin Nuoke sat on the sofa, facing the roaring fireplace, holding a slightly steaming teacup, and was about to take a sip when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." A man who appeared to be a servant walked in and bowed respectfully behind him.

"Sir, I understand the matter of the Marquis of Cotter, I understand ....... clearly"

"......." Listening to the servant's report, Yin Nok's originally good mood suddenly became cloudy.

After that day, he was full of banter, wanting to see what kind of performance Lynn would bring him.

Whether to deal with the people in a panic, or to face the consequences of killing the marquis directly. Unfortunately, a few days later, the city of Catalena was still the same, and nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary.

After investigation, it was discovered that in the last few days, the Marquis of Cotter had stayed at home on the grounds of ill health, and he did not leave the door like a young lady.

G. Don't think about it, Yin Nok knows that something must be wrong. And after the servant's report, he knew in detail that the other party was controlled by his wife.

Lady Cotter knew him, and he knew a little about it, and knew that the other party was unlikely to do anything too tough to Marquis Cott, but now, the situation had changed.

Even if he asked someone to visit him in his name, Mrs. Cotter refused, and her attitude was very serious, as if even if the king of Laiyin came, she would not agree to let her husband come out.

"He definitely did it." Yin Nok muttered, suddenly feeling a burning in his hands. The teacup, at some point, has cracked.

".......," Yin Nok took a deep breath. As an excellent nobleman, he would definitely not be angry because of a worm like Lynn, so why did the cup break?

"The quality is really poor." Throwing the cup away, Yin Nuoke's eyes drooped slightly, and he was silent for a long time. In this operation, he voluntarily gave up some things in exchange for what Lynn was hiding.

But now, although he also got some of it, due to Lynn's interference, he didn't get enough of it, and he didn't even get it completely.

Compared to the losses he paid, this time, he made a completely failed business. That's not going to work.

After a long time, Yinnok slowly got up.

"Prepare the car." ....... Getting into the carriage, Yinok ordered the coachman to head out of the city. The carriage traveled for a long time, and finally stopped in front of a mountain forest.

It's already a little bit away from Catalena, and there are no human settlements around, and if it weren't for the frequent visits of some adventurous adventurers, it would almost be a no-man's land.

Since there were no roads, the carriage would certainly not be able to enter, so Yinok unloaded his horse and went into the forest alone.

When the trees in the forest grew so numerous that the horses could not walk, Enoch jumped off his horse, pulled away the branches, and tried his best to find the way.

Eventually, he stopped in front of a mountain wall. Gently raising his hand, the moment his fingertips touched the wall, the mountain stone suddenly began to fade, and in just a moment, it disappeared into invisibility.

Yin Nuoke slowly walked into the abrupt passage. The tunnel was very deep, there was no light at all, and he didn't light a torch, so he felt the darkness and walked in the dark for I don't know how long.

Until a glimmer of light appears in front of your eyes. Yin Nuoke stopped, raising his eyes slightly. In front of him, at some point, a huge void appeared, and on the ground of the hollow, treacherous runes were quietly flickering with a faint light.

Their brilliance complemented each other, outlining and piling up each other, forming a huge and strange formation. And in the center of the formation, a broken scepter was standing in it, forming the eye of the circle.

Standing on the edge of the circle, Yinok looked up. Above the void, there is not really nothingness. Every inch of the dome is covered with special frescoes.

Some of them may be due to time and cannot be seen clearly, and the remaining murals are either killing, or combining, or doing something even crazier.

The protagonists on the mural are all humans, without exception, but around them, there is a looming mysterious shadow that envelops everything, and if you look closely, even the soul seems to be swallowed by it.

Retracting his gaze from the murals he had seen countless times, Yinok raised his hand and grasped the scepter. With a slight effort, the scepter did not move.

"Damn!" Anock's face suddenly contorted.

"Why! Why!

"We have been worshipping you for so long, why, why don't you give us a response at all! He looked up to the sky and roared filial piety, and kicked on the scepter fiercely, dancing like a madman. But the next second, he suddenly calmed down again, leaned over slightly, and pressed his cheek against the scepter.

"Nobody, no one in the world is more devout to you than we are, you know."

"If you know, just look at us, okay?"

"Only us, only us, deserve your gaze." Sadly, no matter how much he roared, roared, wailed, and prayed, only his own voice continued to echo in the hollow.

The ....... was silent for a long time, and Anock pressed his forehead against the scepter.

"In that case......." he closed his eyes and decided. ........

"Well done, Lynn." In the study, the Count of Blazer looked at his eldest son with satisfaction.

"This operation, if it were me, would not have been able to be so perfect."

"If the previous measures were still what I expected, but the subsequent treatment of Kurt is something I can't think of."

"According to the level of danger you described, if it were me, there would have to be a price, not like now, nothing happened." Lynn bowed his head slightly: "Father, you have a good reputation." ”

"Not really." The Count of Blazer waved his hand,

"You know, even the king praises your abilities."

"Especially after listening to the second report on what you did to Mrs. Cotter, the king even wants to meet you." Lynn was slightly stunned: "Wang....... Want to see me? ”

"Well, but I refused." The Count of Blazer said,

"That's not a good thing—what you did, and the king wants to see you, are neither."

"Standing on the cusp too early won't do you any good, I still have the strength to shelter you now....... Well, I hope you don't blame me for being too assertive......."

"No, father." Lynn said seriously,

"Thank you."

"No need to say thank you." After a pause, Mr. Earl's face suddenly became a little tangled. Lynn noticed the change in his father's face and asked curiously, "What's wrong, father?" ”

"Hmm....... Although I have refused the king's request to see you directly, .......," said the Earl, with a dry cough

"There are others who want to see you."

"Someone else? Want to see me too? Lynn was a little confused. Walking in the academy by himself, everyone was eager to walk around him, how did he get to the royal family, and they all wanted to pull him in front of him to take a few looks.

"Who?"

"Little princess." Hearing this, Lynn was stunned again, and after a moment, her brow furrowed slightly. The so-called little princess refers to the seventeenth daughter of King Laiin, Charlotte Ferdinand.

said that she was a little princess, but she was not young this year, one year older than Lynn, and sixteen years old was already the age when she could marry.

And the reason why Lynn frowned was because of the little princess herself. As far as he knew, the little princess's character was very soft, and it could even be described as cowardly.

How could such a person ask to see him like this

A "ruthless" guy?

"That's the downside of your edge." Count Blazer sighed slightly,

"Although the little princess is the most favored daughter of the Wang family, the reason why she is favored is not because of her soft and mud-like character, but for everyone, she is the least threatening one."

"Her mother died early, and she didn't have time to leave any connections and assets to her, and the lack of background means that no one is willing to put political chips in her."

"She has no practical ability, she has a good looks, she has a soft personality, and the king's outward affection for her adds a lot of false value to her, and finally makes her a perfect vase."

"Now that you've shown your edge, they'll immediately start testing you with the most convenient tools to probe your depths." After a pause, Mr. Earl said in a deep voice: "Lynn, if you receive an invitation from the other party later, remember, you must remember that you have to keep your distance from her. ”

"The daughter of the Kalan family is not simple, but it seems to me that as long as your ability is outstanding enough, whether it is for profit or otherwise, she will protect you; But the daughters of the Wang family are different - they will only be tools to backstab you. Lynn nodded seriously: "Don't worry, I think I should be able to control myself......."

"I'm not worried about you." Mr. Earl said with a blank face,

"I'm worried that the other party won't be able to control it." He said to himself: "You must know that I was in the royal capital back then, but I am also the one who will appear in the dreams of the young ladies of various families, and you are my son, I naturally know your ......." Lynn turned his head and shouted: "Mother! Mr. Earl paused, and his stiff face turned green.

"Shut up!" He changed the subject in a rare panic,

"Anyway....... After receiving the invitation, you ......."

"Bang bang—" There was a knock on the door, and Monsieur Earl flicked his hand no further.

"You can do it yourself....... "The moment the door was opened, Count Blazer had completely straightened his countenance, and he had become calm again.

"What's wrong Lynn?" Madame Blazer came in, and her suspicious eyes fell on Monsieur Earl,

"What did you do to Lynn again?" Count Blazer's face was serious: "Madam....... Here's the thing......."

"......." Lynn didn't pay attention to the communication between his father and mother, and when he returned to the room, he sat down at the table, silently tapping on the table, and fell into deep thought.

The royal family, the little princess. It's kind of interesting. The beauty scheme has been one of the best strategies since ancient times, and with the special value attached to the beauty, anyone may have some crooked thoughts about it.

If you move, you will undoubtedly fall into a trap. The problem, however, is ....... The beauty scheme, the most important thing, is not like a conspiracy here

In terms of "strategy", it is the attraction of beauties, how much is it! With the little princess's cowardly personality outside, can she really attract people who are wary of her?

Lynn thought it was unlikely. Until he saw the barrage that suddenly boiled up. There is a lot of information in it, and it is very miscellaneous, but Lynn still managed to capture the most repetitive, and in his opinion, the most outrageous one.
