137 Ult(1/2)
The atmosphere in the Dan Brown Palace gradually relaxed.
Many guards gradually stabilized the sobriety here, and there was no longer the panic as before. Nobles of all sizes were questioned one after another.
But it is obvious that everyone is a little panicked from the bottom of their hearts. After all, the level of tonight's banquet is really too high, but the fact that these rebels of the Free Army can sneak in is really making you feel a little nervous.
Very frightened.
And Grand Duke Luo Mi also looked a little embarrassed when he fell for you. Such a sensational thing could happen in the heavily guarded Danblan Palace. At least Leo can be sure that in the palace of Lion City,
This will never happen inside.
Not to mention that it looked like it was only the eighth or ninth level at this moment, even the high priests of the Snake Cult back then, all of whom had terrifying levels beyond the thirteenth level, did not dare to approach the palace of the Fierce Lion Realm.
The royal palace of every country should have a foundation that can shock everyone, a guarantee of absolute authority, but now that something like this happened in the Dan Brown Palace, it seems to indicate that the dominance of the Romi family does not seem to be
Looks very solid.
Leo's eyes turned slightly, and he seemed to be thinking about something. Of course, what he was more concerned about was the victim of this incident, the young His Highness Ult. His presence was not felt in the Romy family.
Strong, even weak. Why would the Luo Mi family choose him as their target?
Is there anything else that he doesn't know about? Although Princess Felicity told a lot of information before, Leo believed that facing a big noble from a foreign country like him, Princess Felicity would not be able to
I really don’t hide anything at all.
"Marquis Leo, I'm very sorry that something like this happened in Damblanc Palace," Archduke Romy came over again and said, his words full of guilt, "But I think you can also
It can be seen that the city of Kamo is not very stable.
For your safety, I can send a part of the Thunder Knights to guard your inn."
"This is really troublesome for you," Leo said with a hint of gratitude, but also with a very firm resistance, "but this happened.
I think His Majesty the Grand Duke also needs manpower. For elites like the Thunderfire Knights, it seems more appropriate to follow your orders to maintain the stability of the capital. As for myself, I am a noble of the Kingdom of the Lion Realm. I think they should not be able to
how."
"No, Marquis Leo, you don't know, those damn Free Army, they hate all nobles, preach that people are born free and have equal rights, and they have great influence among the civilians." Archduke Romy said, "Similarly
, they will have a kind of hostility towards all nobles, and they don’t care whether you are from the Lion Realm Kingdom."
oh?
Leo's eyes froze for a moment, these words sounded familiar, and he even wanted to continue, but immediately declined politely, "Thank you again for your kindness, but this time I will also bring you
I have a few lion knights, which I think is enough to ensure my safety."
Lion Knight!
Sivens, the great knight of thunder and fire on the side, even looked sideways, with a little surprise in his eyes. The lion knight, as the national knight of the Kingdom of the Lion Realm, is well-known in the mainland and throughout Pandor.
Belongs to the first line of knights.
A lion knight means absolute combat power. Whether in a group on the battlefield or fighting alone in private, he has extremely convincing strength.
Even if Leo just mentioned it, people couldn't help but pay more attention.
"It turns out that Marquis Leo is actually accompanied by a lion knight guard, but I have to worry too much," Grand Duke Romy's eyes flashed with a faint look, but he did not force it.
…
"Sir, the Dan Brown Palace seems to be very lively tonight," Captain Cary, who was already waiting for him after leaving the Dam Brown Palace, hurriedly came up to him and asked with a little curiosity.
The so-called assassins of the Free Army made a lot of noise before. Captain Cary outside was naturally aware of it, but after all, it was the Dan Brown Palace. Captain Cary would not dare to break in no matter how curious he was.
go.
And he also knows the strength of the Marquis. Even if there is a big change, with the level of the Marquis, he will definitely be able to escape unscathed.
"Yes, I didn't expect that the situation in a small country like the Brown Principality would be very complicated." Leo breathed a sigh of relief and waited until he got on the carriage before continuing, "Tonight... No, in the future in the Brown Principality
Every night, be vigilant enough.
The Principality of Brown is much more turbulent than the Kingdom."
"Sir, is it possible that we can fight in the Brown Principality?" Upon hearing Leo mentioning caution, Captain Cary's mood actually rose a bit, and he said with a little expectation.
"Ha..." Leo rolled his eyes helplessly and ignored Captain Cary who was gearing up and eager to try. He looked at the streets in the dark night again. Leo felt that although the Brown Principality was not big, it seemed to be muddy.
Very.
However, although he just hoped to fish in troubled waters, when he found out that the goals of those secretly people tonight coincided with his goals, and they were all the young His Highness Ulter, his mood did not seem so good.
That night, a large number of soldiers were stationed in the post house. Four lion knights were holding giant silver-plated broadswords, one inside and one outside. They took turns guarding the post. With the energy and perception of the lion knights, few people could hide it from him.
Perception creeps in.
And in this way, Leo could rest at ease. For some reason, the fruit wine he had at the banquet still had a bit of alcohol content, which made him feel a little sleepy.
When I woke up the next day, the night sky was still glowing.
"Sir, I have checked out Ulter's mansion. His mansion is now very tightly guarded by a large number of guards. If we want to sneak in, it will be quite difficult.
The guards who protect him are all masters." Standing in front of Leo at this time was a lean man. His height was less than Leo's shoulders, and his thin face was very ordinary.
The kind that you wouldn't recognize in a crowd of people.
The long light yellow hair is a bit messy, but the beard is trimmed very neatly. The two small eyes have an indescribable spirituality, but they are extremely uncomfortable. When talking to Leo, this man
He lowered his head, but looked around instinctively from the corner of his eyes.
"Altaïr, these are extraordinary times. Urt has just been assassinated and his physical condition is very bad. He may die if he is not careful. In this case, with such a serious injury, Urt's mansion must be guarded.
"Sen Yan, there is no need to be surprised by this." Leo nodded matter-of-factly and said, "It's just that what you need to do now is to come up with a plan as soon as possible.
No matter how likely this plan is to succeed, at the very least, you must let me see your attitude."
"Dear Sir," Altaïr said with some bitterness, "This is not an easy task for us.
After all, this is a completely unfamiliar country, and we currently know nothing about the patrol patterns of the city guards and the living habits of each family."
"Huh..." Leo nodded slightly, "I know this, but Altaïr, we can't give up. I spent a lot of energy and cost to come to the Principality of Brown as the envoy of the Kingdom of the Lion Realm.
, naturally will not give up easily.
I will let Old Doyle assist you with the patrol rules of the city guard, but what you do after entering the mansion must be completed by you. Only you are the professional, which is why I will spend up to 10,000 dinas.
That’s why I invited you.”
"I will definitely satisfy you, but..." Altaïr hesitated a little. He seemed to want to say something, but he seemed to have some scruples and did not dare to speak.
"I can choose to let you recruit a certain amount of disciples, but they must serve me," Leo said, staring at Altaïr in front of him, "The premise is that you must be able to meet my requirements this time.
As long as things are done, everything is easy to say. I can even help you find a suitable successor to a certain extent. You can completely believe in the strength of the Marquis Territory. At your personal level, it will be difficult for you to find a suitable successor.
I already know that."
Altaïr sighed softly. He knew what Leo meant. He didn't know what kind of silence the powerful Marquis Leo was trying to steal. Why was it worth spending so much money on it?
price.
But he knew that he had no room for refusal. He was already in the hands of the other party. With his power and status, it would be too easy to deal with him.
Moreover, he could not refuse the reward proposed by the other party. Moreover, Leo's promise simply touched his heart. His inheritance was really demanding, and the talent requirements for candidates were too high.
Ordinary people can't learn it at all, but if Leo is willing to help with his power, it will naturally be much easier. I have to say that Altaïr is not ordinary excited about this promise.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, I will not let you down," Altaïr nodded vigorously and said, playing with the dagger in his sleeve, bowing to Leo, and quickly walked out.
"Perhaps you can place Cardinal Leiden of the Holy See," Uncle Winter said with a frown. "In a small principality like the Brown Principality, the Holy See's power is not small, and it can even interfere with the royal power."
"Really?" Leo raised his eyebrows again, looking a little unbelievable. Then he seemed to have thought of something and nodded lightly. In the Kingdom of the Lion Realm, because of the strength of the kingdom, royal power and divine power are clearly separated.
The Holy See cannot interfere in the affairs of the kingdom at all. Although the Holy See has strong strength in the king's capital, it is strictly supervised. But what if it is the Principality of Brown?
The Principality of Brown does not have as strong a foundation as the Kingdom, but with the foundation of the Holy See, it seems that it may be even stronger.
With this thought, Leo no longer hesitated, and as soon as it was light, he headed to the Holy See.
Different from Lion City, in Camo City, the Holy See is located in the Queen's District very close to the city center.
Perhaps as Uncle Went said, the moment Leo entered this place, he felt a strong sense of majesty.
The gorgeous churches on both sides are built very high without hesitation, and their pointed roofs reflect a faint golden light.
The expensive stone carvings tell stories from the Bible, but based on the exquisiteness of the stone carvings, it is obvious that they are also valuable.
When the relationship with the Holy See becomes better in the future, should you consider bringing up the suggestion of the Atonement Roll?
Leo thought playfully in his heart, but he had already arrived in front of the main hall.
"Are you Marquis Leo? I am Cardinal Leiden of the Dawn Holy See. On behalf of the Brown Principality of the Dawn Holy See, I welcome you." An elegant middle-aged man came out, with white hair on his head, but a smile on his face.
There are very few wrinkles, and there is a gentle feeling in his eyes.
Just walking in it like this seems to make people subconsciously relax a little and lose a lot of vigilance.
"Dear Cardinal Layton," Leo performed a standard aristocratic etiquette and greeted Cardinal Layton. Perhaps it was because Heitings had already greeted him, and Cardinal Layton showed great respect for Leo.
of enthusiasm.
"The Free Army is an opposition force in the Brown Principality. They have a strong source of funds and considerable strength. They have always been against the Romy family of the Brown Principality.
What's strange is that they don't seem to have any authority, but more of just working against the country. The nobles have never received any favors from them." Cardinal Leiden said with a bit of helplessness, "
