Outside the door, there were two soldiers wearing leather armor with stern expressions, staring at everyone who passed by with vigilant eyes.
In the room, Mrs. Sonia lowered the curtains, looked at her two children, and sighed.
"It looks like Colin will be the ultimate winner!"
She smiled bitterly at Sean and lowered her voice: "If Theodore dies from this illness, Colin will be the undisputed Earl of Green Forest... Unless we can find any evidence, but Theodore's symptoms are indeed serious.
…”
"In the current situation, unless Aaron immediately raises an army, there is still a chance to fight, but it may not be big. After all, everyone knows that Colin is the heir."
"Although Theodore has changed his mind recently, it would take at least several years of preparation to change the heir. It's a pity..."
…
Hearing this, Ginny looked sad, while Sean twisted his body uneasily.
"As for you, you have no chance."
A look of determination appeared on Mrs. Sonia's face: "If you want to have a better life, you must rely on the strong to survive..."
"Mother, do you mean that we should fully support Colin?"
Ginny said dullly.
"He also needs us. We can help him endorse it and make sure that the earl has become sick due to overwork and cannot afford to fall ill...and we can also help him deceive Aaron and other lords..."
Lady Sonia sneered: "He wants to trick all the lords who oppose him, and then kill them all at once... Do you think I don't know his plan?"
After so many years in the castle, Lady Sonia still has a few people on her hands.
She turned to look at Sean with a serious expression: "Next time you see Colin, you must renounce your inheritance rights in public. Maybe you can become a freedom knight when you grow up. As for Ginny... you must be loyal to him and get close to him.
, instead of Aaron before, do you understand?"
This kind of comprehensive turn may be ordinary for political creatures, but for two children, it is obviously unacceptable.
But Sonia's expression was serious: "In order to survive, you must do this!"
She could see clearly that the castle at this time had become a huge trap and iron walls, and Aaron was almost certain to die!
And after killing a brother, if Colin still wanted to be named, he might treat the changed Sean kindly.
…
At the same time, Colin was receiving lords from all over the world.
With a sad look on his face, he was hugging a lord and then watching him go to the guest room.
When the other person's back disappeared, Colin took out a white handkerchief and wiped the place where the other person had touched before with disgust.
"The guys from Cape Storm always disgust me, they smell like wild boars..."
However, he must show a friendly attitude towards every lord who visits.
Colin turned around and entered the dungeon of the castle.
In the prison, a knight was tied to a wooden frame in a large shape, with bloodstains all over his body.
Looking up, it was Turner Shoren.
Next to him, there was a strong man with a beard guarding him. He was muscular and held a huge hammer in his hand, like a real killing machine.
"Merkdo from the wasteland, the champion of the tourney."
Colin looked at the strong man, smiled and said: "I am more generous than my father. As long as you complete the tasks I give you, you will get a fief and become a lord."
After capturing Turner Shoren, Alfred, another knight in charge of the castle's defense, surrendered to him.
Today, Colin can be said to have the castle completely in his hands, with hundreds of strictly trained and well-equipped soldiers!
This kind of force is enough to run rampant in the Green Forest.
"I am willing to serve you, my lord."
There was a bloodthirsty tone in Murk's voice: "My hammer can't wait to drink blood..."
At this moment, a guard came in a hurry and told a piece of news.
"Let's go."
After hearing this, Colin's face lit up with joy: "Go and greet my good brother!"
…
Aaron brought two attendants with him this time, one was named Ava and the other was Bill.
They drove the carriage and entered the town of Sotos, where they could already see the towering castle.
The honest-looking Ava stopped the carriage and asked his companions: "We have arrived...should we wake up the Baron?"
"Wait a moment, have you forgotten that the Baron hates others disturbing his rest?"
Bill had a slender face and shrewd eyes. He looked at the bustling streets around him with a look of envy on his face: "We don't know what rewards we will get when we go to the castle this time..."
Inside the carriage.
Aaron is sleeping soundly.
In the dream world, he pressed his eyebrows: "[Danger Sense] is also warning, haha..."
Aaron didn't pay much attention to it. He looked at the altar in front of him and conveyed a thought.
Inside the department store.
Lin and Olivia, who were praying by the altar, raised their heads at the same time, with solemn expressions on their faces: "My Lord has sent down the oracle. He needs a grand sacrifice, so hurry up and prepare!"
"Above is the light of redemption!"
A group of believers quickly took action.
Olivia looked at Lin: "You should understand what my lord means..."
"The revenge I am able to take this time is entirely due to the blessing of my Lord. Everything about me belongs to the Lord... Don't worry, sister..." Lin showed a sweet smile.
The 'flesh scepter' is indeed an extremely powerful and strange item. After holding it, you can fight even against the high priest.
But its negative effects are becoming more and more serious, and it would not be a pity to lose it.
An hour later, amid the prayers of many believers, Olivia and Lin put the 'flesh scepter' and the 'pure white ice' left behind after the death of the high priest on the altar together, and began to pray silently.
"The spirit of illusion that wanders in the unknown, the existence of absolute neutrality, the silent observer!"
"You are the symbol of free will, the only savior of the last days, the supreme light..."
"Please listen to the prayers of believers, please lower your merciful eyes, please open the door of the kingdom and accept the sacrifices of believers!"
Boom!
In the sound of prayer, they seemed to see countless rays of light gathering above the boundless mystery to form a gate.
That door seems to contain everything, and it feels like you have seen the ultimate of everything, the final answer!
As if the door of truth suddenly opened a gap, pure white light poured out, encompassing the entire altar.
After a while, the light disappeared and there was nothing on the altar.
