Chapter 227: The Dark Council

"The Grand Duke... I haven't had a private date with the Grand Duke in my last life for five years..."

Lu Chen took a deep breath and walked into the garden with his head held high. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Now he is equivalent to some civilian advisers during the Warring States period, going to visit the king or prince, explain his theories to them, and try to get a job.

The difference is that this is a game with a Western cultural background. There is no ancient Chinese rites, but it is more dangerous than China's Warring States period. Because these aristocrats in the West are generally very bloody and violent, and the status of commoners is not much worse than that of slaves, and they can kill people if they disagree.

Lu Chen was also a little nervous at this time, it would be okay to be killed once if he said the wrong thing, this was the most powerful person in Linhai City! Once he accidentally offends, he won't be able to mix it up at all in the future, I'm afraid he will only have to delete the number and repractice!

Coming to five meters behind the Grand Duke of Aberliham, Lu Chen stopped and waited quietly for the old man in front of him to finish pruning his potted plant.

In the entire garden, except for the Grand Duke, it was Lu Chen, and there were no maids or guards. The Grand Duke himself was born in the military and did not like extravagance, and he himself was a powerful legend, so this situation occurred.

"You're the warrior Helan recommended? The strength is too weak... Could it be that Helan has not only not improved his combat power over the years, but has even his eyesight regressed? You can be easily deceived..."

Abelihan's voice was flat and full of confidence, and it sounded inexplicably shocking. However, Lu Chen was not intimidated, he came to meet these big people at this level, and he had already expected that he might be despised every time they met.

"The Duke has been fighting for half his life, and he must have seen many heroes. Many of them do not possess great force, but rely on wisdom to crush the enemy's invasion after attack, right? ”

Lu Chen's words made the Grand Duke turn around slowly, which could be regarded as gaining his affirmation.

System Prompt: Complete the first stage of the quest [Meet the Duke] and gain 1000 experience points.

"Wisdom? Let's talk about it... Hear from Herlan that you rescued Matthew Ackerman, and you also found a dark cultist lurking in the Holy See of Light? ”

Rescuing Matthew Ackerman was nothing to the Grand Duke, because it was the kingdom's stargazer, not his. So, send a master to save it, right? Bother! It's better to let them go to training. Don't save it, right? It's a pity! There may also be criticism from the royal side.

"Lord Duke should have heard a saying that heroes don't mention the courage of the year! Let it pass what you've done... I can prove my wisdom with practical actions! ”

"How to prove it? Sending you a task? With your current strength, you won't be far away from the city and you'll die! The Grand Duke of Abeliham walked over to another potted plant and trimmed it again.

"The Dark Council has always been a thorn in the heart of the kingdom and the Grand Duke, they have constantly lured the kingdom's powerful to fall, assassinated people of strong faith, and secretly stirred up trouble, and you have always wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible!

Unfortunately, the other party is well-organized, and most of the people in the organization regard death as home, so over the years, they have only successfully discovered one or two of their strongholds!

But now, I have a way to find one of their strongholds in a short period of time, and it is not impossible to find out more in the future! ”

As far as Lu Chen knew, the Dark Council had infiltrated the entire continent, planning turmoil everywhere, if it weren't for their focus on the Thunder Empire, the Moonlight Kingdom might have been in chaos long ago.

In the rebellion of the Navy more than ten years ago, Lu Chen knew that it had something to do with the Dark Council!

The Grand Duke's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, and a powerful power emanated from his body, directly shattering the bouquet of flower branches he was holding in his hand.

The existence of the Dark Council is indeed a thorn in his heart! Over the years, many of his comrades-in-arms and subordinates have been lured and degraded by the people of the Dark Council, who in turn have betrayed him. And how many people were assassinated by the men of the Dark Council.

The Dark Council believes in the Dark Destroyer, so the more destruction and destruction the Cultists cause, their gods will be happy, and the more gods and gifts they will receive, and the stronger they will be.

This is similar to the Holy See of Light, which believes in the God of Light, and the more light and faith the followers of the Holy See of Light spread, the more powerful the God of Light will be, and the more gods he will give to express his joy. These gods are the most important way for the Illuminati to increase their strength.

"I'll give you half a month to find a stronghold of the Dark Cultists, and then use this token to mobilize a city guard to wipe them out! Remember, you only have one chance, and you can only use this token once! ”

System prompt: The content of the task [Meet the Duke] has been changed, and the mission name has been changed, please go to the task bar to view.

【Proof of Strength】

Description: Find and destroy a Dark Council stronghold within half a month, and you have a chance to mobilize the city guards!

Mission time limit: half a month.

Reward: Unknown.

Quest Punishment: Cannot pick up quests in Coastal City for one month. (Before the quest is completed, it is not possible to pick up the quest in Rinho City)

"Apoof..."

Why? Lao Tzu's mission hasn't failed yet, and the task punishment has already taken effect?

Lu Chen held back a mouthful of old blood in his heart, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Grand Duke, I will cherish this opportunity!" ”

This broken task disrupted Lu Chen's original plan at once, he originally planned to take on a few more important tasks immediately after taking the first kill of a boss.

The reason why he dared to say so "arrogant" was because he remembered that there was a stronghold of the Dark Council near Linhai City, but he didn't remember exactly where it was, because he hadn't participated in it at the beginning.

Now that this task suddenly restricts his movements, he can only go and complete this task first.

"It seems to have caused a stir near Fish-Man Bay, go over there and take a look..."

Lu Chen's memory was a little vague, because in his previous life, he had stayed in the novice town for two more weeks, and when he came over, the incident had already been over, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

System prompt: The 10,000th job changer appeared, and a large amount of divine power appeared in the world, causing turmoil in time and space, and the main god was going to close the starry world to suppress the turmoil. Please go offline within half an hour!

"So fast?! It seems like it's been almost half a day..."

Lu Chen's brows furrowed, maybe he saw that Qian Yankai had already used his job transfer strategy to find some big forces to peddle. While he may be making a lot of money as a result, it's not fun to cut the advantage between himself and the player's army.

Before leaving the Duke's Castle, Lu Chen used [Thousand Heads] to change his face, and his equipment was specially changed into a brightly colored level 5 black iron armor kit prepared by himself.

The middle-aged thief followed him for days and probably knew he knew how to disguise. However, this set of equipment was seen when he sold the equipment yesterday, and the style was good, so he kept it, and he hadn't used it yet. It is estimated that the middle-aged thief will not know about it either...

At Lu Chen's request, the guard who had brought him before took him to the side gate of the Duke's castle and sent him out.

"Ahem... That one... Warrior! Your token must be put to good use, don't just find a miscellaneous soldier and use it! You know? ”

When Lu Chen was about to turn around and leave directly, the castle guard [Vincent], who had a constipated face since he took him away, finally couldn't help but say his psychological words.

Although he didn't know what the Grand Duke was using this token for Lu Chen, once it was used, the summoned army would definitely have a chance to make meritorious contributions.

"Hey, hey... Don't worry, Big Brother Vincent! The token given by the Grand Duke is naturally only worthy of your castle guards! ”

Lu Chen is very good, if he really finds the stronghold of the Dark Council and transfers Vincent's castle guards to attack, once he succeeds in exterminating those heretics, it will be a great achievement!
