Benefits must be fought for, and fighting for them requires strength as support.
The distribution of interests on Crow Street is very rough, with only simple divisions of their respective bottom lines, and there are still a lot of interests that do not belong to the three parties that have joined forces. But the combination of these three parties has broken the balance of power in Cold Wind City.
A fire broke out on Crow Street, and the place where the evil insect believers were entrenched was set on fire. The civilians in the city were indifferent to this, but to the ruling class of Cold Wind City, this was nothing less than a prairie fire.
This was an open alliance, and the participants did not make any concealment of their identities. One hour after the incident, the city lord's palace responded. The city lord's guards immediately gathered, and the inspection bureau responsible for public security sent soldiers to block the streets.
But less than half responded.
Fabbro hurried to the Wizard's Tower and found that he and the 'Prophecy Chief' Bank were the only eight chiefs in the tower. The other six people were all missing.
When the operation on Crow Street was over, the other six chiefs returned to the tower and immediately jointly declared "neutral". Old Bank was a die-hard member of the Long-Legs family. He realized that he had been stabbed in the back by his colleagues, and he jumped in anger but could do nothing.
The Wizard's Tower is not only the residence of the wizard group, but also a fortress integrating offense and defense. When necessary, it can monitor the entire city and even activate teleportation channels to directly insert troops into key places.
Six of the eight chiefs were "neutral", which immediately greatly weakened the strength of the Long-Legs family. But what was even worse was that half of the knights in the city's main guard refused to obey the ban and demanded that the identity of the Inspector General be immediately investigated and the evil existence eliminated.
Before the City Guards' rebellion, Fabbro accompanied Old Bank in a carriage to the City Lord's Mansion. He felt something was wrong on the way. Most of the people in the city's inspection office were not on duty, and the so-called city-wide blockade was not implemented at all.
arrive.
Cold Wind City, Noble District, City Lord's Mansion.
A spire building more than thirty meters high stands in front of Fabro. The statue of the Frost Goddess steps and jumps on the outer wall. She holds a sharp sword as if she is about to sprint forward, and her shape is flying and sharp.
The layout of the City Lord's Mansion is magnificent and extremely shocking. Flowers and shrubs created by arcane magic form beautiful geometric patterns, and the incredible magic fountain never stops day and night. This is not only the residence of the Long-Legs family, but also the church of the Frost Goddess.
The servant led the way and led Fabro through the mansion. After walking a maze-like journey, he stopped outside a study, and then the maid came in to announce.
When the door to the study room opened, Fabbro's heart skipped a beat and his heart dropped. He finally understood where his uneasiness lay. The study room should have been full of people, but now it was mostly empty.
Except for the direct descendants of the Long Legs family, none of the other dignitaries in the city came.
It’s over!
Fabbro glanced at Old Bank beside him and was shocked to find that the supporters of the Long Legs family were less than half of the city's power. He couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
At the head of the long oval table, the long legs of Colenfeld, who had not been seen for a long time, were lifted out by servants. He was an aging patient with thinning hair and dull eyes, and could only serve as a mascot.
Next to 'Old Longlegs' is the immortal Inspector General Elder El. Although it can move and walk, it is also showing its age, with dark circles under its eyes, age spots, and its sagging skin as if hanging from a body.
Even the direct descendants of the Long-Legs family are far away from this president, and no one dares to sit next to him. In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that the Long-Legs family is what it is today thanks to the support of evil creatures from the abyss.
The cold Phils Long Legs sat on the other side of 'Old Long Legs', sitting still. He pointed to the eight seats on one side of the long table and said: "Your Excellency Fabbro, now the family is under attack
Betrayal. I'm glad you can come."
The 'Chief Prophecy' revealed the answer to the mystery and said to Fabbro: "This morning, some members of the City Lord's Guard and most of the chiefs of the Wizarding Group acted jointly.
They destroyed an evil nest on Crow Street without any notification or permission.
The city lord takes this matter very seriously and immediately convened everyone to discuss countermeasures. Mr. Fabbro, I am deeply grateful to you for standing firmly on the side of the Long-Legs family at this moment."
Damn it!
Fabbro was immediately dumbfounded. He was usually not popular, and no one would notify him if something happened. On the way to the City Lord's Mansion, he only thought that something happened to the wizard group, but he didn't expect that the city Lord's guard actually joined forces with the wizard group.
Had he known this, he would have stayed firmly neutral in the Wizard's Tower!
Now there's trouble, he's on the wrong team.
Fabbro came late, and the direct descendants of the Long Legs family gathered in the study to report on the situation. Old Long Legs, who was lying on top of the bed, coughed violently and whispered slowly: "Obviously, someone is instigating trouble in the city.
The nobles are against us."
Fabbro was restless and thinking very fast. As soon as 'Old Longlegs' said 'someone is provoking', he immediately shouted: "There is indeed someone who is provoking, and we have all been deceived. As long as the instigator is eliminated, the situation will be resolved immediately."
It will ease.”
Everyone in the study stared at Fabbro indifferently. The lifeless old Ergan smiled and said: "Obviously, the instigator is called Victor Hugo. This man was introduced to Cold Wind City by Mr. Fabbro."
"Victor Hugo is the devil's spokesman. He is too good at disguising. I was also deceived and fell into his trap. I am willing to personally eradicate him to undo the mistakes I made."
The Long-Legs family controls the Frost Church in the city, controls half of the city's main guard, and also has people in the wizarding group. It could have ruled safely.
But as soon as Zhou Qingfeng's Harmony Chamber of Commerce came, this illusion of 'security' was exposed. Everyone in the direct lineage of the Long Legs family was in danger, and suddenly found that they had a powerful enemy.
Fabbro was eager to 'show his loyalty', on the one hand he was wise to protect himself, and on the other hand he wanted to leave the city lord's palace. As soon as he left, he would either hide in the wizard's tower, or flee back to his manor outside the city.
He would never take the lead in the chaos in the city, even if there was no winner or loser.
However, Fabbro's thoughts were too conspicuous and everyone could see through them at a glance. 'Old Longlegs' shook his head and looked back and forth between his eldest son Phils and 'Old Butler' El.
Everyone knows that the sudden appearance of Victor Hugo is the cause of trouble, and eradicating him is equivalent to solving half of the problem. 'Old Longlegs' first stared at El, "What does the Supervision Office think?"
Old El, who was wearing human skin, had yellow eyes and said in a deep voice: "I was indeed too careless and was not alert to the infiltration of external forces. However, it is not difficult to eradicate this scourge. Victor Hugo's strength is not
Not strong.
That kid just has money. He is digging up the ruins of Silverleaf City in the Black Forest, just to get millions of gold coins. Killing him might be a good thing."
Rich but not strong, it sounds like he is just a piece of fat. Faced with the crisis, the direct descendants of the Long Legs family in the study were a little excited. Old Long Legs panted slightly and turned to look at his eldest son, "Fiers, you go
Let’s deal with that kid.”
