Chapter 267 266. The necessary condition to be a good Lord is to give the most wonderful assists-[1620]
(Additional update for "Huo Zheng is very good" brother [16/20])
"Lord, are you going back now?"
In the luxurious carriage leaving Wolfsbane's territory, Lord Palano looked at Lord Paying who was sitting opposite him with his eyes closed, and he whispered:
"Well, in fact, after knowing that you were coming, King Louis asked me to invite you to Plantagenet Palace for a supper."
"What time is this? In terms of human habits, it might be more appropriate to invite me to breakfast."
The Lord said without opening his eyes:
"But since the local owners have invited me, I would be too arrogant if I didn't go, but I can't stay too long. After finally getting out, I have to stop by the Elf Kingdom of Castile and the Songhai Empire.
"
"Oh, are you going to discuss the Black Disaster defense with the Elf King and Pharaoh King?"
Rose Knight Palano grinned, flattered and said:
"You really have a lot to do and are extremely busy."
"Um?"
Lord Paying opened his eyes with a strange expression.
The amber eyes glanced at Palano, and he said softly:
"It has nothing to do with business.
I just heard that the Elf King found a good piece of art thirty years ago and wanted to appreciate it. The Pharaoh will hold a birthday celebration in a few months. King Tutankhamun sent me an invitation, but the Black Disaster incident
I couldn't spare my time and went to congratulate you in advance.
Okay, I can indeed chat with those two about the black disaster, but after the lesson learned last time, I don’t think I need to remind them about this matter.
King Querion and King Tutanmont were both very wise rulers.
They can see the threat of the black disaster and are willing to devote their efforts to it. From this point of view, they are much wiser than the kings of mankind."
"But this time Nordtov and the Plantagenet Kingdom performed quite well."
Palano whispered:
"As soon as my people arrived, the two kings made a decision as quickly as possible. Currently, the two countries are reorganizing their armaments, and their vanguard is about to enter southern Transia to assist in the defense.
This is already a hundred times better than the prevarication and ignorance during the last black disaster.
But now that we have said this, Lord, I still think we should send more people to Transia to help the Blood Vulture Clan build a defense line.
Their situation is a bit bad and they may not be able to cope with the black disaster.
Even if the Blood Alliance clans can resist the main force of Jackals in the Desolate Mountains, we cannot cover the entire Filthy Swamp area, and even if only one partial force enters Transia, it will be a disaster for the defensive forces there."
"You seem to have underestimated the new regime of the Blood Eagle Clan a little too much, Palano."
Sitting next to Lord Paying, the third lord Yvette, maintaining an image of indifference unique to elves, replied:
"After you left there, everything they did there was beyond our expectations. According to the three reports sent back by my heir Leonia, the new Governor of Transia, Murphy, performed well in preventing the Black Disaster.
Showed unexpected positivity and ability.
They have completed the cleanup of the Gnoll bandits in the Earl of Cadman, and are about to start a decisive battle with the Gnoll warlords in the Under Armor Hills that will directly determine the ownership of Transia.
Moreover, they have also reached a preliminary political alliance with Nordtov and the Plantagenet Kingdom.
The progress in this regard is beyond our expectations, especially the battle with Wolfsbane Vanguard a few hours ago in Scarlet Castle."
Lord Yvette flicked her tongue and said in an emotional tone:
"Less than 50 old members of the Blood Vulture Clan and less than 40 of their new members joined forces with the rest of the blood servants in the city and launched a desperate struggle in the sewers with more than 300 capable Wolfsbane Vanguards.
They wiped out the Gray Claw faction at a heavy cost, not only defending their territory but also regaining their dignity.
My children were involved in the whole process.
She wrote a lot about the bravery and aggressiveness of the Blood Vulture Clan, praising it as the number one bravery among the Vulture Clan. I don’t think Leonia’s description is an exaggeration. The fact that such a battle loss ratio can be achieved shows that the Blood Vultures are very capable in disasters.
Reborn.”
"That's nothing to say."
Palano waved his hands and said:
"They have the Scarlet Witch who has regained her power. She is a rare genius psionicist in our clan. She alone is enough to destroy the Wolfsbane Vanguard, who is not good at psychics."
"Haha, stupid wisdom!"
Yvette sarcastically said:
"What if I told you that Grand Duke Tris didn't participate in the war at all?
She didn't even enter the sewers. The entire battle was led from beginning to end by Governor Murphy, Countess Femis and the Earl of White Mountain from the Thorn Clan.
As an ancient inherited family, the Blood Eagles obviously know how to get back the lost face in an upright manner, and their victory tonight is enough to become a good story."
"Trish didn't join the war?"
Palano's eyes widened and he said:
"This is impossible! Although the beautiful Murphy is very talented and courageous, he is only a black iron-level swordsman. Even if the Lord helps Countess Femis enter the silver level, their basic strength is still insufficient. It is impossible.
A rival to an elite faction that has existed for decades.
What's more, in an environment like the sewer, the advantages of the blood vultures are limited, and that is Wolfsbane's favorite closed battlefield, where they can unleash their wildness and cruelty to the greatest extent."
"They definitely can't do it alone."
Ms. Yvette waved her hand and said:
"Lynia reported to me that witch hunters also joined the battle when the battle was at its fiercest. In addition, ordinary people in the Scarlet Keep seemed to have become the source of power for Murphy's subordinates.
It’s really unimaginable, what kind of magic did that little Murphy use to convince the witch hunters to fight for him? More importantly, how did he make the cowardly civilians have such a strong desire in the face of cruel people like Wolfsbane?
courage?
Could it be that Sister Tris has developed some weird psychic spell again?
She's really good at it."
"It is the charm of personality and the art of domination."
Lord Paying closed his eyes again and waved his hands and said:
"If it's just civilians helping, it can be understood as magic, but when the witch hunters and the Thorn clan participate in the whole war, it won't be that simple.
I remember that Leonia's order was to assist the Blood Vulture clan in establishing a defense line and training the army. With her cold and arrogant character as a moon elf, it was impossible for her to actively participate in the grudge between the Blood Vultures and Wolfsbane.
In other words, Lord Murphy convinced her.
Even though there are factors in this that the Wolfsbane clan violates tradition, being able to persuade a Moon Elf who is as stubborn as stone with verbal words already illustrates Murphy's talent in uniting others.
There is no doubt that he is an excellent lord who knows how to make proper use of all the available forces under his command.
He even took in witch hunters who had nowhere else to go.
It’s like a medium-sized miracle.”
"Lord, your evaluation is a little too high, isn't it?"
Yvette snorted dissatisfied.
She seemed to lose the arrogance of the elf in an instant, and like a fairy, she stretched out her hand and lay on the Lord's shoulder. Half of her body was hanging next to Lord Paying, and she pursed her lips and said like a coquettish person:
"You have never evaluated me like this, even though I have dedicated everything to you."
"Except for your loyalty, I will try to stay away from anything else you want to give me."
Lord Paying stretched out his hand to push Yvette away, and said without changing his tone:
"And I'm just telling the truth. Tris's descendant is indeed very different from our people. I also heard a lot of praise from little Femis that should not be used on vampires.
I think this little guy might be able to bring a little surprise to our stagnant vampire society.
Now, there are blood vultures, thorns, and our knights in his territory. The relationship between the three tribes seems to be quite good under his maintenance.
Maybe I should give him a little more help."
The Lord thought for a moment and said softly to the third Lord beside him:
"Yvette, you immediately return to the station and go to the Misty Coast on my behalf to send a message to the leader of the Blood Terror Fleet. I need him to send a credible force to Transia to help the Blood Vulture Clan rebuild its system and
A force that shaped the Transian defense."
This order stunned Palano and Yvette at the same time.
Then, the Knight of Rose whispered:
"Lord, do you mean that the two-hundred-year expulsion order of the Blood Terror Clan will be lifted?"
"No."
Lord Paying said softly:
"Just give them a chance.
The pain caused by the Blood Terror clan to this continent has not healed yet. This is a sin that they cannot wash away. However, two hundred years have passed. They are far away from the continent but they are also eager to return to the midnight.
That is a terrible sin, and it naturally requires an equally heavy redemption.
black disaster
Black disasters are not all bad things.
It can create a certain degree of unity and naturally give those who are burdened with a chance to relieve themselves. If the Blood Terror Fleet can show their responsibility in the crisis, then this continent may welcome them again.
But it’s only a possibility.”
"The Blood Terror clan has been away from the mainland for two hundred years. It is indeed a very good idea to let them start their first step of atonement in Transia, which is waiting to be reborn. I don't think the human country will do this under the pressure of the Black Disaster.
Object."
Palano praised:
"As expected of the Lord! Your wisdom and kindness are always so shining and beautiful."
"I personally executed their ancient leader and wiped out their clan until there were only 99 people left, yet you said I was merciful."
Lord Paying sighed and said:
"Palano, sometimes you really don't speak out of your mind."
"Ha ha"
Rose Knight smiled awkwardly.
He just wanted to flatter his elders, what was wrong with him?
But soon, Palano asked another question. He whispered:
"Do you really believe old Edward's excuse? To be honest, I don't."
"Believe it or not is not the key to the issue. Although he is shaken, he is still on our side. This is enough."
Lord Paying did not want to discuss this issue, so he said casually:
"I don't know how much my ancient brother remembers, but I suspect he is certainly not as ignorant as he appears. However, the more he remembers, the more dangerous his situation becomes.
Those ancient memories are like the temptation of the devil
It's more like a door. Once you find the key, you can't help but want to open it, even if you know that there is something hidden behind the door that you cannot touch.
So it was with Oksana, so with Charlemagne, and so with Sarokdar.
Alas, original sin.
This is a weight we cannot bear, but we must carry it until the day of destiny is announced, Eden. Our beginning and our end.”
Lord Paying said words that should not be heard.
But Palano and Yvette seemed to have heard nothing. Apparently the Lord knew that these ancient secrets could not be spoken casually, so he used a little "power".
After he finished speaking, the carriage fell into silence. A few minutes later, the third lord Yvette asked in a low voice:
"It is said that Korando, who made the big mistake, also has two daughters, who left Greene Island with the last group of the Sons of Gray Claw two days ago.
Lord, perhaps we should eradicate it?
I'd love to have an easy and enjoyable hunt."
"Is their destination Transia?"
Lord Paying asked.
Yvette nodded and said:
"According to the reports from our eyes within the Wolfsbane Clan, this is indeed the case."
"Then let them be."
The Lord said in a casual tone:
"Lord Murphy is the winner, and it is his right to deal with the losers. Well, I am becoming more and more curious about this strange little guy.
Perhaps in the midst of the black disaster, I can meet this tribesman who is praised by everyone.
Maybe I should prepare for this?"
——
"What did you say?"
At dawn during this long night, when Murphy returned to the Blood Vulture Corridor with his tired body and a bag full of Wolfsbane Heart, he saw the bow knight Lady Leonia who had been waiting here, and from her
Got some unexpected news here.
"Who do you think Pa Yingzun wants to ask to come to Transia to help?"
"The Blood Terror Fleet, to be precise, the Blood Terror Clan."
The knight archer was obviously confused about this order.
After all, the Blood Terror clan has been expelled from the vampire circle on the mainland for 200 years. For some new vampires, that is almost a legendary name.
She reported to Murphy:
"Lord Paying asked the Blood Terror Fleet to send a powerful force to Transia to assist in the defense, just like the Thorn Clan sent the White Mountain Faction to assist.
The Lord has also ordered you to command this 'army of atonement' and will not hesitate to use them to pay off the disaster that the Blood Terror clan brought to the continent 200 years ago.
This may be a grace from the Lord, which means that the expulsion order of the Blood Terror clan will soon be revoked."
"This is not a trash can!"
Murphy didn't feel happy but said with a headache:
"Just coordinating the Thorn Clan and the Blood Vulture Clan has already cost me a lot of effort. The two families are completely different from their living habits to cultural traditions, and you weird, rigid, warlike and conservative blood alliance knights
Sometimes he causes trouble around him.
Three clans have gathered in tiny Transia!
If you include the wolfsbane we just killed, that's four! Now the Lord wants a group of vampire pirates who have been away from the mainland for 200 years to join in the fun!
What is he going to do?
Are the vampires playing a family in Transia? Why doesn't he release the Mad Blood clan who were sealed in the Holy Blood Land?
Isn't this better?
Let's build a vampire church on the ruins of Transia, and let me be the head of the church, okay?
That’s outrageous!
I respect Lord Paying, really, although I have never met him, I respect him, but this time his decision was really a bit too careless.
I am the lord here.
I’m doing things, not playing house!”
"But the Lord stood on your side and scolded the Wolfsbane clan, and asked Old Edward to give you and Grand Duke Tris a gift as a temporary reconciliation."
Lenia emphasized:
"This is the Lord's kindness. He didn't say that you have the right to refuse."
"So annoying!"
Murphy waved his hands and said:
"Go and tell Tris about this. She is the Grand Duke of the Blood Vultures. Leave this kind of vampire diplomacy to her. I still have a lot of trouble here. Wolfsbane's failed raid caused us heavy damage, and
I don't think the Gnolls would pass up this opportunity.
Perhaps soon, the jackals of the Under Armor Hills will swarm us and eat us up. Ms. Lenia, I hope your bow is ready.
Next, it’s time to fight with real swords and guns.”
