Transcendent Dawn Chapter 324: Assassination
In the throne room.
The two bodies were simply cleaned up and placed together.
They are Fenwick and Fula brothers and sisters of the Drake family, their expressions are peaceful at this time, as if they are just sleeping.
Grand Duke Frank stood before the throne, not knowing what he was thinking.
Today, under his command, the Northern Army won a hearty victory.
They broke the Dragon City, defeated the Royal Family Army and the Western Army, and finally invaded the Royal Palace.
"But... this is not what I want."
Grand Duke Frank's face suddenly became gloomy: "Which idiot was he who killed Duke Drake? What fool was he who killed Queen Fula?"
Although the queen is a king-slayer, she needs to be judged, not to die in a chaotic army.
Fenwick is not even simpler. As the only four dukes in the kingdom, he has brothers and children, effective loyal vassals, and they are still in Western fiefdoms.
Once you know what happened, you will definitely be immortal with Wolfsburg!
Although the two parties are not in harmony at first, they are still different from this situation.
"It's you! You are pushing the kingdom into the abyss of war!"
Frank stared at Gran, who came in, roaring: "Originally... we only needed to capture Grand Duke Drake, try Fra Drake, hold righteousness firmly in his hands, and support someone who is close to us. You can solve everything perfectly, but now, everything is messed up by you."
Nobility is an art of compromise.
As long as Fenwick does not die and takes him as a hostage, he can easily surrender the West.
But now, the difficulty has risen suddenly. I don't know how many times.
Furthermore, it broke the ‘unspoken rule’ of nobles fighting and not beheading the leaders, which made Frank, who was rigid and abiding by etiquette, even more unbearable.
"Times have changed, my father!"
Grand dressed in a white robe, holding a cross sword in his hand, with high spirits: "Dragon and his side have ruled the kingdom for too long. It needs to change to a master. Our Mitis family is the most suitable."
"Shut your mouth, otherwise I will hang you on the flagpole..."
Frank roared again: "And most importantly, where is Princess Messiah?"
After the death of the two princes, Messiah was already the only legal heir to Philetlin III, and he also officially sat on the throne. His appeal and significance were very significant.
In Frank's plan, although the little girl could not continue to serve as the king because of her mother's crimes, she could at least join the Church of the Mother Earth Goddess and become an ascetic monk after announcing her abandonment of all secular powers.
It must also be placed under the supervision of the northern forces to avoid being used by conspirators.
After all, the person who becomes the king in name is the Messiah!
But now this little girl is missing?
"She... is gone. According to the confessions of several court ladies, Princess Messiah should have been in the Throne Room with Fula... But she disappeared. I checked, there is no secret path here... "
Glan looked very puzzled.
"Then we have to face the worst possible, that is, Messiah fled to the west and merged with the Drake family... The kingdom must go through another tragic civil war."
Frank sighed.
Unlike the northerners who came out of their nests, the Drake family still retains a lot of strength in the West.
Moreover, fighting away on the enemy's turf will definitely be weakened.
"My Lord Duke!"
Just when both father and son were thinking, a knight ran in in a panic: "That wizard...Sulu Portree came outside! He claimed that he would kill Lord Gran!"
"Me?"
Glan's face tightened.
"Let Rophis and Eric come here as soon as possible." Grand Duke Frank looked solemnly: "My son, put on the clothes of ordinary soldiers as soon as possible and get out of here!"
"Yes..."
Although he was reluctant, Gran still promised.
But the next moment, his movement stopped.
Sulu didn't know when he had arrived in the Throne Hall, and looked at him jokingly: "Young Wolf Lord...how does it feel to be famous?"
"Sir Sulu!"
Frank said solemnly: "What are you going to do? Murder a Duke's heir? This will make you notorious on the mainland."
He was hinting that he would recognize Sulu's noble status, hoping to save his son's life.
"I'm so sorry...but in fact, I don't care about the title!"
Sulu smiled, and suddenly came forward.
"No!"
Grand yelled and waved the cross sword in his hand.
He is good at strength, even reaching the level of an official knight, but in front of Sulu, he is not enough.
Puff!
Sulu folds lightly and stabs the dagger into Gran’s body, watching him fall to the ground with a grim look: "The brutal beginning must end with brutality... the feeling of falling from the peak. How?"
"Ah!"
At this time, the roaring Frank swung his great sword to kill.
Sulu turned on his side, raised his right foot, and kicked the Lord Duke away.
"Protect Lord Duke!"
"There are assassins!"
These few times happened too fast~IndoMTL.com~ When the alert soldiers reacted, Gran had fallen into a pool of blood.
Boom!
A flicker of vindictive silver gleams.
In the light group, a serious-looking Roffice rushed in, looked at the corpse on the ground, roared, and drew his sword at Sulu.
The huge white crow skimmed through the sky, but only passed through an afterimage.
"Not enough, you are far behind Edward!"
The figure flashed, and Sulu had already arrived at the door of the Throne Hall.
"Let the arrow!"
A rain of arrows fell, but he could only helplessly pass through the afterimage and pierce the ground.
"He is over there!"
"Surrounded!"
"Where is the knight? Go up and fight!"
The roar of the army came from outside, this is the experience of dealing with high-level knights.
Even the silver or even the golden knights, the vindictiveness is always exhausted!
"In the army, assassinating the young duke, and leaving unharmed, he really deserves the name of an arrogant teacher!"
The severed Eric sighed and appeared next to Roffice.
"Catch up, cooperate with the army, and leave the opponent at all costs."
Grand Duke Frank climbed up slowly, every word seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth.
"Yes, Lord Duke!"
The two were ordered to rush out, only to find that Sulu was only at the edge of the palace at this time.
It seems that the ability to teleport is limited in distance?
They were overjoyed and chased after them.
……
Sulu skimmed over the high palace wall and entered a residential area.
Even if he deliberately slows down, there are only a handful of people who can catch him.
At this time, only Rophis and Eric are left.
He turned around abruptly, with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Not good..."
Roffice's heart was chilled: "This is... a trap? We are too far away from the army! They have no time to support!"
