Elder Dillard, of the bloodline of tree shepherds, majors in the law of "Plants".
As the name suggests, he is an extraordinary person who devotes all his abilities to plants. In an environment like the Lusitania Forest, he is at ease and can exert 120% of his strength.
Therefore, the few remaining members could only sit in the living room in panic, waiting for Elder Dillard to return from outside.
Speaker Grean is dead, and so is Councilor Glendale... Although there is a lot of evidence that it was the undead who moved it, almost all of the dead are people from the conservative side, and even a fool knows that there is definitely something fishy going on.
Ah, maybe it's the one sitting on the throne who has made a despicable agreement with the undead in private! This damn half-elf traitor!
So everyone began to scold the Half-Elf Queen, tacitly ignoring that it was they, the traditional MPs, who had originally connected with the Aragonese royal family.
"Elder Dillard is so calm!" Gradually, some members of Congress transferred their grievances to the master who never showed up. "Elder Grein has been with him for more than twenty years, and now he is dying on the street inexplicably.
, he can actually endure it?"
"Say less, Tonkson!" Another council member quickly persuaded him, "Now, except Elder Dillard, no one can stop him!"
These words are quite sincere. In the supernatural world, even the upper echelons of half-elf politics ultimately speak for themselves through strength.
Now Her Majesty the Queen's side is even more extraordinary, and has almost wiped out the traditionalists with insidious assassination methods. This means that even if the traditionalists break out and openly engage in a coup, they may not be able to defeat Her Majesty's side.
In this case, of course everyone can only gather around the strongest combat force in the camp, that is, the demigod Elder Dilar, or else are they waiting to be wiped out by Her Majesty the Queen's extraordinary beings?
As time went by, the congressmen became more and more uneasy. It was almost late at night, and there was still no sign of Elder Dillard returning, which made everyone anxious and fearful, fearing that someone would break in, hang them all and then pull them away.
Walk.
Fortunately, Elder Dillard did not let them wait long. After a few minutes, a plant suddenly broke out from the wooden floor, and in an instant it sprouted from a bud into a huge vine and flower bud.
Then the petals unfolded outward one by one, and Elder Dillard in robes walked out from inside.
This is his "Dense Root Network" skill, which allows him to move quickly through the roots all over the ground and then break out of any plant.
In a desert environment, this skill is rubbish, but in a fertile forest terrain it is simply a magical skill, not inferior to the Black Hole Law, which is good at moving through space.
"I have just contacted the Aragonese royal family." Elder Dillard looked around at the three councilors in the hall, pressed the ancient cane on the floor, and said, "According to their intelligence, the assassin should be a bird named 'Cang'.
The Blue Sword's mercenary team is behind the command of the Bull Mercenary Group."
"Cang Qing Sword?" The three council members looked at each other.
Of course they know about the Bull Mercenary Group, which is the largest mercenary group in the Iberian Peninsula. But the Cangqing Sword... a random wild group that appeared from nowhere?
"They are not some ragtag group!" Seeing the disapproval of the congressmen, Elder Dillard immediately put down his crutches and shouted, "They have a very close relationship with the Holy See. They even stayed in Italy and the peninsula for four months.
Help the Holy See resolve the mutation in the Spiritual Tree!"
Mutation in the ectoplasm tree? What is this? Although the congressmen have never heard of this term, even the Holy See needs help to solve the mutation. Naturally, you can imagine how cruel it is.
And if it can help the Holy See solve the mutation, this mercenary group cannot be just a wild group.
"Wait a minute." One of the congressmen suddenly said, "The Blue Sword... I have heard of this name. Isn't it the same human mercenary group that was imprisoned for murder?"
After saying this, everyone immediately reacted. There was indeed such a mercenary group before, claiming to be a messenger for the Bull Mercenary Group, asking for help from the half-elves in Lusitania.
As a result, the conservative side used the knife to kill people, carefully designed and framed a murder charge on them, thus successfully inciting and arousing the public anger of the half-elves. For a time, the entire society was hostile to outside humans, causing the person on the throne to
Several recently proposed "open motions" also came to nothing as they were voted against by a large proportion of the Half-Elf Council.
It can be said to be the most brilliant move made by the conservatives.
As a result, someone is now telling them that it was this "chess piece that seemed to be at your mercy" that killed two-thirds of your personnel?
However, considering the clues provided by the Aragon royal family and their record of helping the Holy See resolve mutations, this human mercenary group is obviously not someone who will be trapped by an arrest warrant and a prison!
"In that case!" One of the congressmen reacted immediately, "That's easy to handle!"
"Since they actually did it, there must be a way to leave the prison quietly, whether through tunnels, supernatural power, or collusion with the prison authorities. As long as we send people to monitor them 24 hours a day, they will either be unable to leave.
Or we have to openly escape from prison."
"If they choose to escape from prison, we can declare them fugitives and mobilize all our forces to hunt them down. Even the one on the throne can't interfere in this matter!"
Other congressmen also nodded. Everyone was afraid of assassination before because they were trying to expose the other party's secret. They couldn't even find out who the murderer was, so of course there was no way to fight back.
However, now we know that it is most likely the human mercenary group that is behind this. As the upper echelons of semi-elf society, they certainly have countless ways to manipulate each other.
"I heard that Her Majesty the Queen has been in prison all day today." Elder Dillard thought for a moment, nodded and said, "In that case, we can go directly to the prison to meet with Her Majesty to inquire about the progress of the case."
"If Your Majesty refuses to let go, we will take advantage of the fact that the murder case has aroused public resentment, and ask Your Majesty to put pressure on her to severely punish her. Let her save the lives of these human mercenaries in exchange for our people being stationed in the prison to guard her, and then wait for an opportunity.
And move."
"What if His Majesty breaks up with us and starts a war with us directly in prison?" Some congressmen worriedly asked. Even political assassinations have been carried out. How can everyone believe it 100% if you say it is safe to go directly to see Her Majesty the Queen?
!
"Humph, with me here, what are you afraid of?" Elder Dillard said coldly.
The congressmen looked at each other, then felt relieved.
As Elder Dillard, who majors in plant law, he is almost invincible in this big forest. Even if he faces a large number of high-level powerful enemies and cannot defeat them, it will definitely not be a problem to protect the three of them from evacuating.
.
What's more, Her Majesty the Queen is unlikely to do this. Openly attacking Elder Dillard and three members will undoubtedly greatly damage the political prestige of the royal family. She has always used covert assassination methods before, and she also framed the matter to the undead.
, isn’t that exactly what you are concerned about?
Thinking of this, everyone immediately agreed and decided to follow Elder Dilar directly to the prison and ask for an audience with His Majesty in an open and honest manner.
