Upon returning to the manor, the Earl of Thompson met Malik in the cold and dry basement. Baratheon.

After a long time in the bright hall of Bahamut, and now suddenly being in a gloomy environment, the old earl felt a little uncomfortable. But who says Malik likes such an environment, as the owner of the manor, he can only do his best to meet the needs of his distinguished guests.

"Lord Earl, has Xie Ona really woken up?"

After receiving Thompson's notice, the mage Asalan, who arrived in advance, asked urgently as soon as they met.

"Hundreds of nobles have seen it with their own eyes, is there any fake?" Earl Thompson looked at the latter with hatred. In the past, he felt that his magic advisor had great powers and helped him solve a lot of problems, but who knew that at the most critical time, he was so unreliable. If he hadn't been too big at the beginning, how could there be such a bunch of troubles today!

"How is that possible?!" For his magic attainments, especially in dissociation, Asalan, who was extremely confident, still had a hard time accepting this fact at this time.

"Mr. Delmavic......" said Malik, who had been standing in the shadows out of the light, "I heard that not long ago you lost to Gordon in a golem battle. Freeman. Not only was the golem of his pride smashed into scrap metal, but he also lost his most precious prize, a pink whooping saffron petal, right? ”

The fiasco of that war, both physically and spiritually, was a devastating blow to Asalan. But in the face of Malik, who poked open his wounds. Baratheon, the haughty mage, could only hold back: "Yes. ”

Malik played with the goblet filled with the red wine in his hand and said, "As far as I know, pink zinnia petals can be used to make certain curative medicines. Maybe Gordon went to that golem duel to save his sister. ”

There is some truth to this statement. Although he was very reluctant in his heart, Asalan still had to admit that Malik's insight was indeed much better than his own. He never knew. Whooveria petals also have this use.

"These things don't matter anymore." Although Earl Thompson wanted to scold Asalan for a while, he could not make internal conflicts at such a time in the face of a serious problem that needed to be solved urgently.

"If Xie Ona shows up at tomorrow's meeting of the nobles and charges me, then everything will be over." Earl Thompson's face turned pale, "Gordon did not apply for supreme arbitration today. Instead, he chose to use the vote to decide the winner, because he wanted to save this opportunity for tomorrow and deal a fatal blow to us. Sheona can pass guò supreme arbitration, but I can't. ”

"That gadget I gave you is indeed impossible to deal with the Nine Rings Divine Technique." Malik nodded in agreement.

"So, we have to go out tonight. Erase this greatest threat! ”

Asalan frowned: "Lord Earl, our preparations are not yet complete. There are three mercenary groups and four professional killers who have not yet reached Clearwater City. ”

"My 'shadow hand' can only mobilize four people now." Malik tasted the wine and added slowly.

The Earl of Thompson was caught between a rock and a hard place.

If she is not well prepared, let Sheona survive tonight and let her accuse herself tomorrow. Then you may be able to kill the killer before the supreme arbitration is carried out. But do it. He will undoubtedly become the biggest suspect, and there will be endless troubles.

And today, when the secrets are still unknown, if the Freeman brothers and sisters are solved, the truth will be covered up under thick blood.

However, although Earl Thompson was anxious, he knew that the guest from the Baratheon family was the real leader, so he asked in a very cautious tone: "Lord Malik, if you take action tonight, will it be possible?" ”

Malik took a sip of the rest of the wine in his glass. said: "Gordon let his sister appear in public today, just to make you panic and act rashly. If my guess is correct, the Freeman Mansion has probably been set up as a fortified fortress and will be heavily armed. Just waiting for us to take the bait. ”

"So what do we do? Is it just a matter of waiting for a later opportunity? ”

"No, Earl Thompson. Although the mage's cleverness is impressive, in the final analysis, it is strength that determines the outcome of a war. Aside from the siblings themselves, there wasn't much power the Freeman family could wield. Rob. Antello is a formidable fighter, but alas, today is January 20th. In the middle of each month, the former legendary mage who terrifies orcs, the patron saint of the Northlands, has some personal health issues...... This is where we can take advantage of it. ”

"Rob. Does Antelo feel unwell every month? This kind of secret information is not even known to me, a nobleman who has lived in the Northland for generations, why would Malik, an outsider, know about it? Earl Thompson was startled at first, then relieved. After all, Malik and himself are not at the same level, and the information that the other party has may not be able to contact him.

"No Rob. Antelo himself, the reinforcements that Gordon was able to invite, it is worth noting that Rob is worth having. Antello's mage corps, and his personal bodyguards, such as Teresa. Bishop, that woman. Also, the Temple of Dawn might send someone. As for other miscellaneous fish, such as the city guards or the nobles' private army, there is no need to worry. ”

After Malik's analysis, the uneasiness in Earl Thompson's heart eased a little. Although Malik gives the impression of being eerie and cold, he is by no means a man who will talk about it. Since the number two of the Baratheon family is so confident, then this battle can be fought.

The Earl of Thompson had finally made up his mind to take action tonight. Although the preparation was slightly insufficient because of the advance action, the old earl had a considerable amount of strength at hand after a period of recruitment.

In order not to reveal their identities, the knights, guards, and private soldiers of the Thompson family could not be used. The real main force is the various outlaws, underground mercenaries, killers and other characters hired by Earl Thompson with a lot of money.

Plus Malik. The "Shadow Hands", the most elite mysterious unit under the command of Baratheon, Earl Thompson felt that his side had a good chance of winning.

As night fell, and as he was about to start his operation, Earl Thompson suddenly saw Malik carefully wiping his sword. The latter asked, "My lord, what are you ......?"

"I think that only by piercing the enemy's chest with his own hands and letting him die a painful death in despair can it be considered revenge." Malik's voice was colder than the blade in his hand.

"Your status is so honorable that you don't need to go there in person." Earl Thompson flattered. But in his heart, he wished that Malik would come out. In today's Clear Water City, there are only a handful of people who can fight with Malik. If Rob. Antello couldn't play, so with the help of this strong man, his victory was almost nine out of ten.

"You ordinary aristocrats always like to stand behind the scenes and solve problems. But I'm different, I'm not afraid that blood will stain my hands - because that's my way of doing things. Malik nodded to Earl Thompson, and disappeared into the night.

January 20 is the middle of winter. Unlike the warm summer days with an abundance of nightlife, after nightfall, the city quickly falls into tranquility.

People who work hard for the upcoming Dragon God Blessing Day are quietly enjoying a warm fire and a hot dinner at home.

But at this time, there are always some people who are ready to move in the shadows of the city.

The outlaws bribed by Earl Thompson entered the city through various channels, and lurked quietly everywhere. Today, after receiving the order, they suddenly burst out like rats in the sewers smelling food.

The new lair where these people gathered, in a large mansion on the block where the Freeman family mansion was located. After the autumn hunt was over, and after returning to Blue Water City, Earl Thompson had the foresight to buy the house, which was only two blocks away from Freeman's house, as a stronghold.

At this time, Mage Asalan, who was the commander-in-chief of the entire raid operation, was standing in front of a large group of people, laying out the course of action. These outlaws are of all races, dressed in all sorts and speak seven or eight languages, but they all have one thing in common: they exude a dangerous aura all over their bodies.

Although Asalan was able to command these troublesome guys with the help of money, he was not happy to take command of the operation. But there was no way, there was no way to make these fellows obedient without a single of the count's cronies. Moreover, Asalan also felt that this was a good opportunity to regain his trust when he had lost most of the Count's trust.

"Mr. Rusty Axe Barosh, you and your lads attack from the eastern wall, and you take twenty men to outflank you from the south......" Asalan methodically assigned tasks until finally, he looked at a young man with a fiery color.

Originally, the Earl of Thompson wanted to hire this man called Fang. Zorga's man, Asalan once expressed strong opposition. Because as a mage with good strength, Asalan felt the breath of the abyss from the other party's body.

After the decisive battle of the Ancient Road, the demons fled to the death, but it was difficult to guarantee that there would not be a few fish that slipped through the net. If this man named Zorga is a remnant of the abyss, he will be in great trouble.

But after the red man showed his hand in front of Earl Thompson, the "eager to seek talent" earl immediately spent a lot of money to hire this man who claimed to be the deputy head of the Blue Blade Mercenary Regiment.

But now, even if the source is unknown, Asalan can only choose to fight side by side with him.

"Commander Zorga, ten minutes after the battle began, you and your subordinates attacked from the rooftop, understand?"

"Understood, mage......" the red man smiled hideously, "I'll definitely take Gordon. Freeman's head, ripped off alive! ”
