Chapter 892: The Earl's Little Plan
"Stalling? Is this possible? after all, Krees's prophecy ......," Kaufron muttered to himself, remembers Krees's secret of defeating the Earl very well, and even verified it with oracles, and the results were satisfactory.
Now that the conditions in that secret were basically in place, Coughren really couldn't think of any omissions that might be overturned by the Earl.
"That prophecy of Krees?" the Count scoffed, "you don't think that's the prophecy, do you?"
The Count recited as if he were reciting a poem: "'When the four elements converge, the sword of light and darkness will pierce the chest of the Bloodline, and the Bloodline will be completely wiped out on the mainland. ’”
"How do you know this prophecy?" said Serent's exclamation, which undoubtedly confirmed the Count's suspicion.
"How do I know? It's simple, because I sent someone to tell Krees about this prophecy. The Count replied proudly.
"What?" Kreese said he had been told by a mysterious person. Celent and Coughlon said in unison. They invariably cast a shadow in their hearts, and faintly felt that they had fallen into a trap.
"You don't think that mysterious man is Augusta, do you?" said the Count, with a smile in his tone.
"Could it be you? No way! You were already asleep by then!" Coughren remembered Krees's description very well.
"Hmph, do you really think that when I sleep I don't know anything about the outside world?" the Count snorted.
"According to the record of the Secret History of the Blood Clan, the Blood Clan is absolutely unable to act after entering the eternal sleep. Silent said.
"I didn't think you knew a lot~ I actually read "The Secret History of the Blood Clan", that book is rare on the mainland!" The Earl couldn't hide his surprise and said, "But little guy, do you know the saying 'What is in books may not be the truth'?"
"I see!You're going to sleepwalk!" The troll warrior, who had been cold for a long time, finally found the time to brush up on his presence.
"Poof~" Even the Earl was amused by Zambit, "Great Troll Warrior, are you really sure you're not here to be funny?"
"Do you hear that? Even the Earl of the Blood Clan recognizes me as a great troll warrior!" Zambit's focus was clearly different from that of the Earl.
After everyone was speechless for a while, they collectively chose to ignore Zambit's existence, they all understood that the Troll Warrior belonged to the kind of master who would shine when he gave a little sunshine, and as long as anyone took a stubble, this guy would go on endlessly.
"Who is the mysterious man who told Krees about the prophecy?" asked Coughren with some gaffe. If that prophecy was really made by the Earl, the problem would be serious, after all, Coughren also predicted the same prophecy through oracles, which shows that the Count has the ability to interfere with the prophecy, which is undoubtedly a very terrible thing.
"Can't you guess?" said the Count's tone, one of incredulity.
"You don't say Mr. Cross, do you?" said Serent, tentatively.
"Who else could he be, no matter how stupid he is, isn't he?" sneered the Earl.
"Kross can hide from Krees?" asked Coughren, skeptically. Regardless of intelligence or strength, Kroos should be far from being Krees's opponent, how could Krees be deceived by him?
"Krees had become a ghost, his abilities were greatly diminished, and Cross was very clever in disguise. The Count said proudly.
"Miss Tenel?" Celant's voice blurted out,—— it was a hint from Alfie.
"Huh, I didn't expect you to react so quickly!" the Count's words undoubtedly acquiesced in Sylrent's speculation.
Coughren no longer doubted that if Tenelle made a move, under the illusion of this Sanctuary illusionist, Cross really had no possibility of revealing it, unless he was stupid enough to tell Krees the truth, and obviously he was not stupid enough to do so.
"Mr. Count, how could you possibly be an oracle?" Celent asked his question in place of Elfie.
"Oracle? no, no, no, it wasn't a prophecy at all, it was a plan. The Count smiled mysteriously, "Can't you just allow me to have a little plan if you are allowed to calculate me?"
"Is your plan to-" Coughren had a bad guess.
"Of course, it's to increase my strength!" the Count said rightfully, "I didn't advance to the Demon Gold Sanctuary at that time, but I can imagine that when I recover from my eternal sleep, I will face even greater challenges, and I will have to strengthen myself in order to preserve the dignity of Wickeborg and the Bloodline." ”
"That's what the plan was built for?" asked Coughlon bitterly. He never expected that the oracle could go wrong.
"Here I have to thank my dear Augusta, his plan to restore Wecoburg has inspired me greatly, why can't I use the power of the enemy to strengthen myself?" the Count said proudly, "I have found such a secret method to achieve instant level increase with the help of the four elements and divine power from the secret book handed down by the blood clan. ”
"But how could Augusta create a four-line trapped dragon formation to cooperate with you?" Coughlon still felt a little unreal, how could Augusta's wisdom be easily fooled? and from the perspective of time, the creation and arrangement of the four-series trapped dragon formation should have been before the earl made this plan.
"Who knows what that cunning guy thinks. But I just need to leak this method, and the guys who are hiding in the shadows and preparing to deal with the Bloods will definitely take care of the rest, not Augusta, but also others. Looks like the plan is going well, isn't it?" the Count let out a smirk laugh, "I'm just now discovering that this trick I learned from Augusta is simply wonderful, and it is easy to use the enemy to achieve your own goals. ”
"Sure enough, Ai ...... Uh, I'm right, you're stalling for time!" Silent was so angry that he almost told Alfie, but Alfie reminded him telepathically in time.
"That's right, I'm just stalling for time. The longer the time drags on, the more power I will get from you, and although it is not enough for me to break through the Demon Gold Sanctuary, it is still enough to restore the energy and healing that I lost before. The Earl laughed wildly, "I feel that I am in a very good state now, even far beyond when I was first promoted. Now that I've cleared all your doubts, are you ready to accept my 'thank you' in return?"
After the earl finished speaking, a sky-high momentum erupted from the center of the magic array, and the entire original site of Wick Fort seemed to have entered a gravity space, and everyone felt a gravity that exceeded their own by a hundred times, and every beat of their hearts became extremely struggling.
