Chapter 246 The scene

There was silence in the living room.

Due to the conflict between the vassal knights and the guard knights, the strength of the Barton family was severely damaged. During this period, Baron Philip began to recruit members of the vassal knight families and returned to Kaiyue City to replace the original guard knights.

But during this period, they only recruited fifty or sixty people. And most of them were junior knights and intermediate knights.

In the last conflict, two high-ranking knights were lost, including the knight commander, Hisoka, and Ruffin.

Not to mention other intermediate knights.

These people simply can't make up for the Barton family's lost strength. And now that the Barton family is so weak, it's why the New Party is so active.

In addition, the last death of the Baron was most likely done by the New Party. The New Party may even know the situation of the Barton family, as well as Lucie Barton and the killing of Gandall and his son, and manipulated all this behind the scenes to realize

In order to consume the strength of the Barton family.

The New Party will always be a terrifying dark shadow. They spread out across the country, and their ultimate goal is to send all the noble lords to the gallows and thereby take control of the kingdom.

Faced with such a terrible enemy, the nobles must not take it lightly.

"There is no other way. Now we can only strengthen our guard. The only good thing is that if the new party wants to seize the kingdom, then they will first obtain the king's head. If they want to seize Orange, then they will also first obtain the count of Libya.

The head is the only one, we will always be the secondary target. If the king and the earl fail, then we will also fail. If the king and the earl survive, I believe we can survive too."

Natsu Wilson narrowed his eyes slightly. His face was very feminine, and his breath was even colder. The way he squinted his eyes now looked more like a poisonous snake.

It exudes an aura of danger.

"Natsu, that's what I hate about you. Although you are an upright person, your temperament is too feminine and it doesn't improve morale at all. If that guy Baba was here, everyone's morale would be boosted right now."

Old Sol glared at Natsu and Wilson said.

Naz, Wilson felt embarrassed and opened his narrowed eyes again. The vassals thought of the deceased previous generation of Knight Gandall and couldn't help but cherish their memory.

That one is the truly powerful, reliable, and trustworthy first vassal.

With him here, things would be different.

"Anyway, there is nothing to say. As long as the Pompeii family does not perish, the Barton family will not perish." Old Sol was a little impatient with this kind of meeting. He stood up and bowed to Baron Philip before walking out of the living room.

"That's right, be on guard and wait until the new party calls." Knight Williams shrugged and followed him out.

The vassals walked out one by one, and the meeting ended in a hurry.

There is no other way, it's just that the soldiers come to block the water and use the soil to cover it up.

Both Pompeii and the Barton family are too weak, and the upcoming war is beyond their control.

Even the Count of Libya is just a bigger pawn in this war.

The real contest will be between the king, the new party, and the big shot.

After the vassals went downstairs, they met with the heirs.

"After the matter is done, we will stay in the official residence in the city for one night and then return to Pompeii tomorrow." Old Sol said to Luther.

"Dad, you go with mom first. Newton and I will go shopping in the city together," Luther said.

Of course Madame Sophie has to attend this ball, and she is currently waiting in the carriage.

"Is there a road at night?" Old Sol's eyes lit up and he asked enthusiastically. Ever since Miss Ruth disappeared, Luther has always been alone.

Old Sol was quite worried about Luther's happiness and wished his son would go out and fool around.

"Whatever you think." Luther shrugged, then joined Newton, Marshall and others, and the group left Barton Castle in a mighty manner.

Because they were not worried about safety in Kaiyue City, they did not bring any family guard knights with them.

Besides, they are all knights. They still have the ability to protect themselves.

Excelle City is not lively at night. The only ones that are still open are the pub and the opera house. However, the opera house of Excelle City is really very small, so there is no point in going there.

Ordinary taverns are not suitable for them either.

Fortunately they already have somewhere to go.

The six of them walked arm in arm on the street together. There were no stars in the sky today and it was pitch black. However, the most basic ability of the knights was night vision, so they were not afraid of walking into the smelly ditch.

"Newton, isn't your little girlfriend Elsa pretty?"

Marshall asked curiously with a mean air.

"A farmer's daughter is probably just average." Someone said.

"That's not necessarily the case. The farmer's daughter may also be very beautiful. Otherwise, she wouldn't be fascinated by Newton."

"Don't call her a farmer's daughter. When you meet Miss Elsa, everyone should be polite and call her Miss Elsa."

Luther gave each of the two guys a mallet.

"We're not that stupid."

"that is."

The two guys said with a smile.

"She's not very beautiful, she's just average. But she has a nice smile, and I like it very much." Newton said with a smile, his face filled with something called happiness.

The group of people soon arrived in front of a villa in the villa area. The door of the villa was closed, but the lights inside the villa were on.

"Cousin, Aisha, this is me Newton."

Newton stepped forward and called the door, but no one came to open the door after calling several times. Newton reached out and pushed, and the door was pushed open.

Newton's body stiffened and became motionless.

"Why don't you go in? Don't block the way, Newton."

"Yes, we still need to see Miss Aisha."

Because Newton was a fat man and blocked the door, Luther and the others behind him couldn't see anything, the two guys earlier shouted.

But Luther noticed something was wrong. He stopped the two guys who were messing around, and then came to Newton's side. From a little gap, he saw what was going on inside.

Luther's pupils shrank.

The hall was in a mess, with traces of struggle everywhere, and the air was filled with a smell. There were three disheveled girls lying in the hall in different postures.

Luther listened carefully. Two people still had heartbeats but fainted, but one of them no longer had a heartbeat.

In addition, there is a large box placed in the hall. The large box is slightly opened, and there are golden gold coins inside. It is estimated that there should be a thousand gold coins.

"Elsa."

Newton suddenly let out a scream and rushed towards a girl.

That girl had no heartbeat.
