“Master, the matter of the Mel family is spreading outside. I’m afraid we can’t hide it for long.”Nicholas went to Dudian’s room, he was worried: “The Mel family is involved in too many interests. Most of the others will transfer their hatred to the murderer. Last night I robbed the planting base. This matter should be noticed soon.”
Dudian slowly said: “How Soon?”
Nicholas seriously said: “In two days it will be traced back to us.”
“Two days is enough.”Dudian indifferently said: “After two days no one will continue to pay attention to this matter.”
Nicholas was stunned.
... ..
... ..
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye it was time for the meeting of the elders.
Shooting Wolf had prepared a suit made by a master tailor. He was in high spirits. He combed his hair and tie in front of the mirror. He looked at himself in the mirror, he was very satisfied.
In order to make himself look more like an evil elder of the dark church, he tried to imitate the habits of the elders of the dark church. For example, extravagant, rich, cold-blooded, cruel and unpredictable temperament.., he had grasped these places perfectly. He was a natural pretender.
“Elder, you seem to be in a good mood today!”Hawkeye came to the room and was ready to pick him up. Seeing that he was smiling, he couldn’t help but smile.
“As long as I can smell the blood, I will be in a good mood.”Shooting Wolf smiled, tidied his clothes, picked up his walking stick, and went straight out. There was a trace of anticipation in the depths of his eyes. He had waited for this opportunity for too long, in the past few months as an elder of the ninth district, he had been missing this time every day. He had already secretly informed the Pope and passed the location of the Elders’meeting, the number of people, and other information to the pope in secret.
He believed that the Pope would definitely not miss this excellent opportunity. He would send the strongest force of the radiant church to capture all these evil followers of the dark church in one go!
At that time, he would definitely take the first credit, and it would be recorded in the history of the radiant church, leaving behind a glorious stroke!
At his age, he did not have much desire for material things, including power. It was hard for him to be moved. And being famous for all eternity was what he looked forward to and yearned for the most.
When he died, he would still be remembered by the people. What kind of luxurious enjoyment would he have?
“After all the elders have been captured, only the mysterious dark speaker will be left. The dark church will be disintegrated today. The Dark Church, which has been against the radiant church for more than two hundred years, will be disintegrated because of me...”thought shooting wolf, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.
Soon, he was escorted by hawk-eye and the other members of the Parliament. He came to a luxurious carriage in the manor and sat down. On both sides of the carriage were dark knights and two dark grand knight commanders who had been waiting for a long time, they would personally escort him to the meeting this time.
“Let’s go.”Sitting in the carriage, shooting wolf ordered.
Seeing that he was leaving now, Hawkeye hurriedly said, “Elder, aren’t you waiting for that person?”
Shooting Wolf knew who the “That person”he was talking about was. He could not help but recall the powerful strength they had fought before. His eyes narrowed slightly, he said, “There’s no need. Didn’t he already know the location of the meeting of the elders? Maybe they went there directly. Let’s go first and meet them there.”
Hawkeye wanted to say something, but he stopped himself in the end.
The team set off again. The Dark Knights outside the carriage had a cold and stern aura. It was a somber scene, and no one dared to approach.
Phelan town.
This was the territory of the Phelan family. A hundred years ago, a female general named Phelan had appeared in the family. She had made great contributions in the barbarian battle, killed countless barbarians, and saved tens of thousands of civilians. Because of her outstanding military achievements.., therefore, she was rewarded with this small town.
Currently, that female general was no longer alive. Her descendants followed the example of their ancestors and were proud of joining the army. There were many amazing people at the level of a great general in the family. This made the FELAN family a big family that was comparable to the Mel family. However.., the FELAN family was not a noble family. Therefore, they were not recruited by the consortium. They were only loyal to the military. When anyone in the military mentioned the FELAN family, they would be afraid of them.
Shooting Wolf’s carriage slowly entered Felan town. This town, which was respected by countless commoners, was the gathering point of this elders’meeting. There was no other reason than that this was the safest place.
Shooting Wolf lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the scenery on the side of the road. He narrowed his eyes and revealed some coldness, “Why did he have to seek refuge with the dark church and become the leader of the Dark Council? Humph, the Pope should have contacted the military and used this opportunity to uproot the FELAN family. There should be people in the military who are jealous of this general family...”
The carriage galloped all the way and slowly came to a high mountain behind the town. There was a castle far away from the hustle and bustle of the town. There were flags of the FELAN family with blueprints on all four sides. Teams of knights were patrolling outside the castle. By the side of the road leading to the castle, the flowers and grass were fragrant. The grass was all trimmed. Occasionally, wild rabbits could be seen jumping on the grass, and children could be seen playing on the grass.
Shooting Wolf lifted the curtain and saw the children playing on the grass. He noticed that they were all wearing clothes embroidered with bluegrass patterns, and they were all descendants of the FELAN family.
“Poor children...”looking at the innocent smiles of these children, shooting wolf showed a trace of pity in his eyes. These children hadn’t done anything bad.., they probably didn’t know what kind of disaster they would be involved in.
Soon, the carriage arrived in front of the Felan family’s castle.
The carriage was stopped. Shooting Wolf took out an invitation card from his pocket and handed it to the Dark Knight outside the window.
After reading the invitation card, the guard glanced at the knights on both sides of the carriage and said, “The family has ordered that only ten people are allowed to enter each invitation card.”
Shooting Wolf frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he immediately called over a dark grand knight and said, “Pick a few good fighters and stay here. The rest of you stay outside the castle for now. Don’t go far.”
“Yes.”Tumako nodded and turned around to choose a few dark knights to stay behind.
“Please.”The guard pulled open the thick and heavy door of the castle and made an inviting gesture.
When shooting wolf saw that this small guard had such a temperament, he secretly felt a bit of respect for the FELAN family. At the same time, he also felt a bit of regret. He could clearly be a hero, yet he had to fall into the darkness.
After entering the castle, shooting Wolf said to tumako outside the window, “You stay here. If that person comes, you take care of him here.”
Tumako was slightly startled, but he quickly reacted and said, “It’s that person...”
“Shh!”Shooting Wolf made a hand gesture and slightly glared at him. He said, “It’s good that you know. Why did you say it?”
Tumako knew that he had misspoken. He scratched his head and quickly thought of something, he said, “Elder, they don’t have an invitation card. It’s useless for me to receive them here. We’ve brought enough places for ten people. I’m afraid the guards won’t let them in. This...”
Shooting Wolf saw his simple mind and couldn’t help but shake his head. “That’s their problem. We’ve already done our duty.”
Tumako finally reacted and said with a bitter smile, “I know.”
Tumako stopped by the door and watched the carriage enter the castle. He got off the horse and squatted at the fountain in the square to wait. A moment later, the sound of carriages came from outside. He immediately stood up and tiptoed to look. Immediately, he saw a noble-style carriage slowly approaching under the escort of two teams of knights. When he saw the flag on the carriage, his expression changed slightly. He did not expect to meet an old enemy so soon.
Soon, after the carriage showed the invitation card, it was let in by the guard.
A middle-aged man in the guard team beside the carriage saw Tumako. His eyebrows immediately raised and he said mockingly, “Isn’t this Tumako? Why? Has he been abandoned by Your District 9 and came here to be a Watchdog?”
Tumako’s face was gloomy. He said coldly, “You’re still the same. A dog can’t spit out ivory from its mouth!”
“Is that so? Then spit one out for me to see,”the middle-aged man teased.
Tumako was choked by his refutation. He snorted and said, “If your saber had the ability to talk like this, you wouldn’t have been chased by me and fled everywhere last time!”
The middle-aged man’s expression changed slightly. He sneered and said, “You were obviously being chased by me, yet you still bite back. With your little ability, you can still chase after me?”
Tumako was stunned. He didn’t expect that not only did he deny it, but he also said that he bite back first. It seemed that the truth was as he said. He was so angry that he clenched his fists and said, “Who is being chased? Get off the horse and try. Your companions are watching here. If you have the guts, come down and fight me one-on-one!”
A hint of gloominess flashed across the middle-aged man’s eyes. Just as he was about to speak again, a hoarse voice came from the carriage, “Don’t make things more complicated. Let’s go in first.”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man lifted the horse rope and said coldly to tumako, “Today is your Lucky Day. Next time, you won’t be so lucky.”After saying that, he shook the horse rope and rode away.
Tumako did not expect this person to be so shameless. Black and white were reversed, and he even spoke as if he was serious. He was so angry that he wanted to drag him down from the horse to fight. However, thinking that this was, after all, the place where the elders gathered.., if he acted rashly and broke the rules, he would inevitably be punished severely. He gritted his teeth and endured it.
A moment later, the sound of the carriage wheels rolling could be heard again from outside. Tumako stood up and looked over. When he saw that it was the elders of the third district, he could not help but feel a chill in his heart.
Soon, the carriage of the third district passed through the inspection of the guards and entered the castle.
The Dark Knights on both sides of the carriage noticed Tumako by the fountain in the square. They only gave him a cold glance and did not say anything. They just passed by the square.
Tumako silently watched them leave. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief and continued to squat down and wait.
After the elders of the third district arrived, the elders of the other districts arrived one after another. In the blink of an eye, the sun had already shone on the square. Tumako took out his expensive mechanical pocket watch and glanced at it. At this moment, there were still ten minutes left until nine o’clock, the meeting was about to begin.
“Could it be that they aren’t coming?”Tumako was puzzled as he raised his head and looked over.
At this glance, he just happened to see a carriage coming from afar. There weren’t any flags on it. There were four attendants standing guard in front of the carriage. They weren’t wearing knight armor, but rather a strange-looking hunter armor.
“They are coming.”His eyes slightly flashed.
The guard saw the carriage that had arrived at the door and immediately stopped it: “This is the territory of the FELAN family. No one is allowed to enter!”
Dudian slowly lifted the curtain and said to the guard: “You didn’t ask me for an invitation card. How did you know that I am an idle person?”
The middle-aged guard was startled. He remembered that all twelve guests on the list had arrived. Why were there thirteen now? He looked at dudian: “Since you are the guest of my master, Please Show Me the invitation card.”
Dudian nodded and looked at Sergei: “Show him.”
Sergei grinned: “Alright.”He jumped off the horse and came to the front of the middle-aged guard.
The middle-aged guard looked at him strangely. He was about to speak when he saw a black shadow coming towards him. He was shocked. He raised his hand to block but the black shadow hit his face. He felt an indescribable pain coming from his face, his body retreated continuously, rolling a few times.
Sergei shook his hand and grinned. “This is the invitation. Is It Nice?”
“It’s as Nice as a flower.”Glenn jumped down from another horse. Her figure swayed slightly, and she quickly rushed towards the other guards who were alarmed. A dagger quietly appeared between her fingers, shining with a silver light on her fingertips, the guards who were surrounding her fell one after another. Blood spurted out from their necks.
The fight in front seemed to have nothing to do with Dudian. He slowly lifted the curtain and pulled the hook. He turned around and got off the carriage. He reached out to Aisha who was in the carriage and pulled her down the stairs, by the time he turned around to face the gate of the castle, the guards had all fallen. Sergei, Glenn, Gwyneth and Neuss stepped through the blood and corpses and pushed the gate open.
“Gabriel, follow me.”Dudian called out to Gabriel who was the coachman.
It was Gabriel’s first time following Dudian. He saw the corpses of the guards lying on the ground in the blink of an eye. His face was pale. He had never seen so much blood. He had seen the scene of Glenn and the other two slaughtering, he thought of the slaughters that he had seen in the village. The slaughters were as clean as the slaughters. The only difference was that the slaughters were accompanied by the screams of the pigs. The previous slaughters were silent.
Dudian tightened the robe on his shoulder as he led Aisha through the clean ground. He saw a familiar face as soon as he entered the gate: “Have they gone in?”
Tumako’s face was pale as he looked at Dudian. He thought that Dudian would retreat after being stopped by the guards. He didn’t expect that he would break in in such a crazy way, this was the family of the general!
“They have gone in.”Tumako replied: “They are waiting for you inside.”
Dudian nodded as he led Aisha into the room.
Tumako looked at the few people behind Dudian. There was fear in his eyes. The speed of the previous few people wasn’t inferior to his, he didn’t know where Dudian found four people who were comparable to the Dark Grand Knight. The previous elder seemed to be more unfathomable than he had imagined!
