Volume 8 Purgatory Chapter 70 The Dust Just Settles the Storm Again
There was a bone-chilling chill in the laughter, and all the Knights of Pluto trembled involuntarily when they heard the sound.
The figure of the Ninth Elder just moved, then stopped. Even Nilac, who was carrying Rigano back, subconsciously moved in his heart, and the two corpses immediately stopped attacking.
Looking up, I saw a woman in purple robe suddenly appeared in the sky. The woman's figure floated up and down, her face was like a finely carved crystal, and a slight smile floated on it.
Above, there was an uncontrollable cold air coming out in an endless stream. It was none other than the Imperial Princess Claudia.
The battlefield suddenly became silent, and the darkness around the Shadow Skeleton slowly fluctuated, and a voice came up: "Her Royal Highness the Princess wants to lead them away, so of course we will not stop them, but..."
There was a slight pause in the words. The Ninth Elder's head, whose face could not be seen clearly, suddenly lit up with two groups of blood-colored lights. He looked into the eyes of the purple-robed woman. They did not give in to each other. After a long time, he said slowly: "But
The agreement made by His Majesty the Emperor and my lord back then was that the organization would never interfere in military matters, and the military would never get involved in the organization. Today, the Knights of Pluto..."
Killing Marquis Nicholas, the leader of the Knights of Pluto, in the imperial capital. Even if he came to the door on his own initiative, and even if Nicholas and the others were just "passive counterattacks", it was still a huge event, not to mention that it was directly reported.
Claudia bumped into...
Therefore, as soon as the Ninth Elder spoke, he used the agreement that the founder of the organization had made with the empire to attack Claudia, so that she could not care about this matter.
Claudia's expression did not change at all, but the superior aura originating from the Hades Banshee continued to press downwards. However, the Shadow Skeleton could not be suppressed by just one aura. The blood-red light was still staring at her closely.
His eyes showed no sign of giving in at all.
Seeing that the pressure could not suppress the shadow skeleton, Claudia was not surprised. Although she had never fought against each other, she had already understood the mystery of the skeleton... She said quietly: "So, I will only take them away, so
, I won’t let them cause trouble for you.”
A dead Marquis Nicholas has no value to the empire, and the reason for his death also violated the taboo of the empire.
All the army needs is to obey orders. The empire can allow the army to have military-related intelligence networks, but it will never allow it to secretly cooperate with organizations like the Hand of Dis...
Therefore, Claudia ignored the death of Nicholas, but the elites of the Knights of Pluto were still taken away. Although they obeyed the orders of Nicholas, or the commander of the Knights of Pluto, their allegiance was still to the empire.
Hearing the hidden meaning in Kredia's words, Nilac and the Ninth Elder were sure that the value of the organization to the empire was still far greater than that of the dead Marquis Nicholas.
……………
In the next two days, the information that the Second Elder Rigano colluded with Marquis Nicholas to harm the First Elder reached the hands of every senior member of the organization. However, the death of Nicholas and the lack of any reaction from the empire also confirmed the correctness of this news.
Therefore, although the organization experienced some slight turbulence, it was still under control, and the storm gradually calmed down.
Under the arrangements of Nilak and Shadow Skeleton, the position of the second elder was temporarily replaced by a high-level person who could still be trusted. With Audrey and others hiding behind him, gradually, the dense intelligence network of the Undead Empire had grasped Nilak's knowledge.
Lark's hands.
As soon as Nicholas died, his family and his minions lost their support and became panicked.
Audrey, who had not yet dissipated her hatred, took the opportunity to arrange personnel to kill them. Except for some people in high positions in the empire who could not directly take action, the young woman was almost unscrupulous at this time. Nilac already had hatred for the Nicholas family.
Naturally, I would not restrict Audrey.
For those who cannot be directly assassinated, Nilak also has other methods.
After a secret meeting with the Finance Minister, Duke Fabio, the two parties reached some agreements that were still acceptable to the empire.
An additional condition of the agreement is that the Fabio family suppresses those senior executives who have lost their backers.
Without the protection of Nicholas, how can these people compete with the Fabio family? What awaits them is their demise sooner or later.
The intelligence network of the Orc Empire is becoming more and more complete, and the information from both sides is spreading more and more rapidly. Under Nilak's arrangement, news about Cat Man's assassination trial continues to flow into his hands.
Although assassinations sometimes failed, most of them were successful. Under their intensive killing, the Hall family's grassroots forces in many places on the mainland were suddenly in trouble.
Nilac smiled slightly. After completing the internal activities of the ***, it was almost time to clean up the Hall family...
With the means to mass-produce dark power, Nilak no longer has the same taboo against the fire-type holy mage.
The first thing that needs to be considered is the attitude of the business alliance.
However, if we can get help from Lianyi and if Archduke Marcos secretly helps us, there shouldn't be any big problems.
The dust gradually settled, and the March appointment finally arrived.
In Spark's small courtyard, Anya and Lianyi floated over, but Leona was still nowhere to be seen. It seems that in the past two years, she has not been able to completely absorb the godhead...
"Our target this time is here!" In the room, Anyayu tapped her finger on a map and stopped on a black highland.
Black represents the unknown, which is full of mystery. It is the territory of the human race that has not yet revealed its true identity.
"Tanggu Highlands?" Nilac was slightly shocked. If it were some other mysterious place, he really didn't know much about it. But he knew much more about this land than the average person... This was the fallen shooter.
The former location of the Ift tribe...
Anya smiled and nodded, and said in a low voice: "Yes, it is the Tanggu Highlands, the legendary holy land of the Amazons and Titans in ancient times..."
Seeing Nilac's expression of surprise, Anya's voice paused slightly, and then said: "Remember the three purgatory corridors that Darkfawn mentioned back then. According to my investigation, one of them is here, composed of Amazon warriors and Titans.
Guard together. Compared with the barbarians on the Arreat Plateau, the Amazon clan has declined. Our goal for this operation is to find out the situation here and find the location of the Corridor of Purgatory."
Tanggu Highlands has always been extremely dangerous, and I have even heard rumors that strong men from the Holy Domain cannot come out even if they enter, so Anya will find someone to go with her, so that she can have someone to take care of her...
Nilac's mind changed. He was somewhat clear about the situation in the Tanggu Highlands. Although three hundred years ago, the fallen archer Ift was not a big figure in the Amazon tribe, but the specific terrain inside
, she is still very familiar with the specific situation...
However, three hundred years have passed and the great changes of that year have gone through. Will Tanggu Highlands still be the Tanggu Highlands of the past...
As his thoughts changed, Nilac hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell everything he knew. Firstly, this was his first action in joining the Communist Party, and he could use this to gain everyone's trust. Secondly, he could
I will take this opportunity to get closer to Ripple, and my future actions will depend on her support. Thirdly, Nilak himself is also very interested in the undead demons in the Purgatory Corridor. If he can collect eighteen like undead demons,
Generally, the speed at which powerful undead servants gather their dark power will be several times faster than it is now...
"Actually, I know a little bit about the internal situation in Tanggu Highlands."
Seeing the doubts in the eyes of Anya and Lianyi, Nilac's heart moved. The fallen shooter immediately appeared beside him and continued: "I, this servant, was once a member of Tanggu Highlands..."
Before they finished speaking, Anya and Lianyi had already fixed their eyes on Ifute. Although she was a fallen Amazon, the fierce aura inherited from the Amazon bloodline in Ifute still had not faded...
The eyes of the two Sanctuary Masters immediately showed a hint of joy. It was indeed an Amazon! With her guiding the way, they would be able to easily avoid those dangerous places and find the Purgatory Corridor.
Just as they showed their joy, Nilac immediately poured another basin of cold water on their heads: "But she left Tanggu Highlands three hundred years ago, and the Amazon clan was in the midst of a sudden change at that time, so although she
She is aware of the terrain, but the specific tribal situation is no longer known... Moreover, the Purgatory Corridor should be sealed under the Brynhild Temple that serves Valkyrie (Valkyrie), and is composed of Titans and
Guarded by the strongest in the Amazon.”
Valkyrie is a group of gods, consisting of nine great goddesses, of which Brunhilde is their leader...
Even if Amazon declines again, the person who exists in this goddess temple will definitely not be a simple character...
Moreover, in order to open the Corridor of Purgatory, the temple must be captured and the temple of the goddess blatantly desecrated. Who knows whether Brynhild, a goddess who has always been barbaric, will be punished by some kind of divine punishment...
The three of them looked at each other, and Anya said: "We still have to go to Tanggu Highlands, but don't rush to unlock the seal of the Purgatory Corridor after we pass there. We should first find out the specific power of the temple. If the power of the temple also declines,
Then we will take action directly, and if the power of the temple is still extremely powerful, then..."
After glancing at Ripple, the two women nodded to each other, and Anya continued: "Then, let's wait until Leona comes out of seclusion. With her here, as long as those Valkyries don't come in person to open the seal of the Purgatory Corridor, we should
