In the garden outside the Earl's castle, there were people standing everywhere chatting and visiting. Most of them were young noble men and women, and some were children of big businessmen. They were holding wine glasses with each other, behaved elegantly, and talked and laughed politely.
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Angele walked forward along the door and entered the banquet hall.
The pale golden hall is covered with thick goose-yellow carpets. Some servants are setting up a long dining table and filling it with various foods.
Golden roasted whole goose, green and red fruit and vegetable salads, white soft white bread, black beef liver with dripping sauce, thick soup with rich honey aroma, etc.
A large table of dishes is put together for guests to take as they please. There is a dedicated waiter waiting to pour wine for the guests.
Angelet casually glanced at the guests standing in the hall, and his eyes instantly fell on the middle-aged aristocratic man surrounded by four or five nobles at the end.
The man has a black mustache on his lips. He looks to be in his thirties or forties. He has a reserved and gentle smile on his face. He is chatting quietly with a lady opposite. This man is wearing white military-style clothing, which highlights his slender figure.
With a strong build and a hint of decisiveness in his demeanor, he must have been in the military.
Seemingly noticing Angelet's gaze, the man also shifted his gaze and looked over.
"Sorry, excuse me." He whispered and saluted his companions around him. Then he strode over. He walked through the middle of the hall and stopped in front of Angelet.
"Coming? I didn't expect you to come so early." The man with the mustache stretched out his hand to Angelet. It seemed that he had already estimated the time and was ready.
Angelet also smiled and stretched out his hand, patting him lightly with his palms. The palms of his two palms patted against each other.
"Your etiquette here is really strange."
"Really?" The man smiled gently. "Someone has said this to me before. When we meet for the first time, let's introduce ourselves first. I am Earl Maixiang."
"I am Green. I only have the title of earl but no name?" Angelet took a glass of green fruit wine from the waiter beside him.
"Name? A long time ago, I was called Earl of Maixiang. This name was so famous that everyone finally called me that. Even I have forgotten my original name now. Just call me Earl.
.”
"That's up to you." Angelet shrugged. "Is there any safe place?"
"Follow me." The count turned around and walked towards the corridor on the left side of the hall.
Angelet followed closely behind him, one behind the other. He waved his hands along the way to stop any guards or waiters who wanted to follow him for protection.
Soon, the corridor became darker and darker, and the oil lamps on the walls became darker and darker. Some of the oil lamps had even been completely extinguished.
The surrounding light is getting darker and darker.
Angelet was walking in the corridor and walked around the castle unknowingly.
On the left side of the corridor are open-air white stone pillars. Outside the stone pillars is a somewhat dark dilapidated garden. The breeze blows, and the sound of flowers and plants can be heard in the garden.
The count finally stopped in front of a circular fountain, stood still and turned around.
"This is the backmost area of my castle. It's also my private garden. No one dares to come here." There was still a gentle smile on his face. But under the dim firelight, it looked faintly cold.
"As one of the main people in charge, I need to know the detailed plan." Angelet didn't hold back at all. After sensing with his mental power that there was no one else around, he spoke directly.
"Detailed plan? That's a lot." The count turned around, faced the white empty wall, stretched out his hand and touched it gently.
Buzz!
A black twisting symbol suddenly appeared on the wall. It was like an S as tall as a person, but with subtle modifications and patterns extending from the edge.
After the talisman shone with a faint black light, the Count did not hesitate and slammed into the wall. His whole body passed through the wall without any hindrance and disappeared.
Angelet watched him walk into the wall. His eyes tightened slightly, and he reached out and patted his waist bag gently. A faint transparent defense layer slowly appeared in front of him.
The defensive layer quickly disappeared and became completely invisible. Angelet then strode towards the wall.
There was a scoff in his ear. He immediately walked into a small, dark, circular room.
There was only an oil lamp the size of a fist on the wall, emitting a dim yellow light. The count was standing beside the oil lamp, gently extinguishing the light from the flint in his hand. He turned around.
"This is one of my secret rooms in the castle. Now, let's take a look at the entire plan I laid out in advance." The Earl walked to the center of the room with a smile.
In the center of the room, there is a round yellow sand table. The top is steep and uneven, simulating terrain such as mountains, rivers, and forests. Small models of city strongholds are placed steadily on it. It is exactly the same as the entire central part when viewed from a high altitude.
There are still some black arrows remaining next to the city model, which seem to have been drawn with some kind of ink.
Angelet walked over and stood on the other side of the sand table opposite the count.
"Do you often work out plans here?"
The earl nodded. "Originally, I was the only one responsible for this area. Of course, I can complete the plan. But Ziyan, if you come over, you can also report the progress of the plan back to the headquarters." He paused and gently said
Straightening a crooked stronghold model. "I used to feel a little lonely by myself, but now I have someone to discuss it with."
"It seems that you are very confident in your plan layout?" Angelet looked down at the sand table map. The entire sand table map almost completely reproduced the entire central part.
The Earl smiled: "It's not confidence, but it's impossible to fail." He pointed to a city in front of him. "We are here now. At the boundary between the lava lake and the Tali River Basin. The entire Tali River Basin.
, the current war situation is also part of the plan."
According to various understandings, the fundamental reason why the Count explained the situation in such a vague manner was that he did not want him to participate and take away his credit. He did not take it seriously either.
"Since you feel confident, I am only responsible for assisting you, and it is up to you to take the lead in the specific implementation. I won't say more. Can you take a look at the current progress?"
"Of course." The count smiled and gently pressed his right hand on the edge of the sand table.
Click!
The entire sand table suddenly lit up, and dozens of small dots glowing with white and red light quickly lit up on the map.
A large number of small dots suddenly brightened the darkness of the entire room.
Angelet looked at these little dots intently and listened to the count's explanation. "The white dots indicate the places or forces that have completed the layout. The red ones mean that the layout has not been completed yet. But there are not many anymore. Dozens."
Over the past year, I have completed most of my plan."
There was a hint of relaxation in the earl's voice.
Angelet raised his head and glanced at him, then lowered his head and continued to observe the sand table.
On the sand table of the map of the entire Tali River Basin, most of the dozens of small dots have turned white. There are also some red dots that are slowly turning white, which are obviously ongoing dots.
"Very impressive. As expected of the head of the headquarters designated. Earl Maixiang, I will ask you to take more care of me when we work together in the future." Angelet smiled.
"In the future, I will rely on your support more, Lord Purple Eyes." The count laughed while stroking his mustache.
Snapped!!
When the two of them looked at each other and smiled, a small dot on the sand table that was changing color suddenly exploded.
"Huh?!" The count's face turned cold and he looked at the sand table attentively.
"What's wrong?" Angelet stood aside and asked, "It seems that something unexpected happened?"
"It's nothing, it's just a small trouble." The count returned to a smile, "It will be dealt with soon."
"Judging from your performance, it seems that this little trouble is not just once or twice?" Angelet smiled and looked towards the direction of the exploding dot, a small border city where a small river flows - White Elephant City. "
Do you need my help?"
The count regained the confidence on his face. "There's no need for this. I will naturally have measures to deal with it."
Angelet glanced at the count. There was a hint of warning in his eyes, and he obviously didn't want him to come and steal the credit. After all, it was a plan he had been preparing for decades.
The count stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on the spot where the small light spot exploded.
laugh!
A triangular white light curtain suddenly popped up above the sand table, and a clear picture quickly flashed above it.
In the night, a fiery red fire was burning. Next to the burning building, two young men and women, supporting each other, looked at the fire with scars all over their bodies, and their bodies were dyed red.
On the ground beside the two of them, corpses in yellow clothes were lying everywhere. The corpses seemed to be members of the same organization. Among them was a tall and burly man, holding a black steel fork and staring angrily. He was actually standing.
die.
Angelet noticed that the count's face suddenly became extremely ugly when he looked at the scene. He seemed to know the young man and woman standing, and there was a hint of gnashing of teeth. Then those corpses must be the count's.
Observing the two people carefully, Angelet also felt vaguely familiar.
A blue line flashed in his eyes, and there was a hint of astonishment on Angelet's face, and he whispered: "Isn't this the good-for-nothing son of the Lord of Qianpu City? Why did he come here?"
Angelet glanced at Earl Maixiang, saw the muscles on his face twitching, and knew that he had guessed correctly.
"The girl standing next to him should be Sera, the lover of Suman, the son of the Lord of Thousand Falls City, right?" he continued to ask.
"You have such a good memory." The count returned to his smiling expression, "I just met them once at Xia Zuo's banquet, and I was able to quickly recognize their identities. Yes, they are Serra and Suman. Speaking of which, Serra is still
Your senior brother Xia Zuo is a descendant of the family. I wonder if it will cause trouble to you if I deal with these two little guys?"
"Of course not." Angelet replied sternly, "It just seems that your men, Count, have fallen into the hands of these two people. I wonder if we need support?"
"You don't need to worry about this." The Count's face returned to calmness, "I will take care of everything." To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest
