Chapter 124: Bewitchment
At McClandel's request, the first captain of the Kingsguard and the Imperial Bodyguard, Knight Janis Otow, and the new King's Scholar Stannica Sadin attended the meeting for the first time.
"The victory of the Cassadine family this time is inseparable from the advice of Master Mack, and as a member of the Cassadine family, I now feel a great honor." Stanicasas said that he was over half a hundred years old, and he could be regarded as the old man of the Cassadine family, and he was very knowledgeable.
After these days of the Cassadine family and the Randall family of the Turner family, the Turner family is almost completely defeated, but what is even more surprising is that the Randall family is the most powerful army of the Turner family is defeated, that day the blood flowed like a river, the war horse screamed, the Randall lord did not wait for the Cassadine family's reinforcements to arrive, took the lead in attacking, left and right, and rushed to kill in sections, the Turner family was defeated in the frontal battlefield, and when the Cassadine family arrived, the remaining army of the Turner family had withdrawn from the first battlefield, After that, there was a small battle in the second and third battlefields, at which point the Turners lost all the land in their territory, and they fled with a remnant of the army in the direction of the Chris family territory to the west.
"Lord Glet's credit is not small, it was he who ventured to the Cassadine territory to negotiate various agreements, if it weren't for Lord Glet's tongue, I'm afraid Lord Cassadine would not have sent troops to help so easily." McLandall said with a smile.
Glenamsi touched his beard, looking unfazed, "I'm just doing what Master Mack wants, and what I said is a fluke that is slightly in line with Lord Cassadine's wishes." ”
"Don't be too humble, all of you." "We have lost very little in this war, and we have regained our former glory, so I believe that no one will dare to underestimate the Cassadine family again, and the Cassadine lord is very happy and promises that most of the original territory of the Turner family will go to the Randalls, and we only need a small part of it." ”
Queen Mother Innie Randall said, "In this way, the Randall family and the Cassadine family are true allies. ”
Varian O Yiqi smiled, "I'm afraid that these territories still need to be re-canonized by the king, and they will also be left for other families to drink a little soup, so that it will be more justified." ”
"Or is it Mistress Varian who is more thoughtful." "Presumably, our King and Prime Minister will leave a little sweetness to the Otto family, the Oyizi family, the Lexa family, the Namsi family, and the Temad family. ”
"We'll discuss this matter carefully later, in fact, there is another matter to invite Knight Janis Odo today." McCrandell's expression became serious again.
Knight Janis Odo said, "My lords, I don't want to disturb your interest right now, the rebel Turner family has fallen, but we have a great threat going on right now. ”
"Oh?"
McCrandell said, "A few days ago, a few ships in the royal fleet mysteriously disappeared, and a few were not enough to attract our attention, let alone be discussed at the imperial meeting, but these days, the disappearance of ships is happening more and more frequently, not only the ships of the royal fleet, but also the merchant ships and fishing boats operating in the Adriatic Sea. ”
"And such a thing?" Eni Randall asked in surprise, and she turned her head to look at Janis Otto, trying to verify something from his expression.
"It's my reluctance, as the captain of the Kingsguard, it is necessary to take steps to prevent this from happening." Knight Janis Odo said. "These days, the number of missing ships and crews in the royal fleet has reached nearly one-fifth."
"We're not here today to discuss whose responsibility it is, Lord Jennis." McLandall said, "I've investigated the cause and the end of this matter, and Master Varian should know this better than I do. ”
"We all know that two of Jocris's guards use dark magic, and they used their weapons to knock down Master Giannisotto, according to our investigation, it's not because their weapons have dark magic attached to them, but because they themselves use dark magic, and the disappearance of the ships these days has nothing to do with them, one of them can use a demagogic dark magic, my intellectors have seen it with their own eyes, a crew member who is absolutely loyal to the royal family, The next day he rebelled against the king and joined Jocris's side, all because that man used that kind of black magic! ”
"Lord Varian's words are a little terrifying, the dark magic has not appeared for hundreds of years, is it because of the dark magic that such a series of bizarre things happened?" King's scholar Stanika Sadin said.
"The alchemist said that the dark magic came from the dragon, and the dragon appeared not long ago, so the black magic also appeared again." Glenamsi's expression still hasn't changed much.
"Regardless of how Jocriz and the others got the dark magic, the current situation is that there is a person there who has the ability to bewitch people, as can be seen from the details that Lord Janis Odo said, and according to intelligence investigations, this ability can only be used at close range, and it takes a certain amount of time." Varian Oyiqi said.
"In other words, the person with this ability managed to get close to our royal fleet, as well as those fishing boats and merchant ships." Stanika Sardin, the King's Scholar, said, "How could such a thing be done? It's still possible to get close to fishing boats and merchant ships, but it's probably impossible to get close to the royal fleet, right? ”
"Possibly, Master Stanley." McClandell said, "This is the point we want to talk about today, there are already people in our royal fleet who have betrayed the king, they are the eyes of Jorkles's camp, so they know all the actions and inspection instructions of the royal fleet, and they can arrange a corresponding security plan to bewitch these fleets and personnel one by one, and by the time we are aware of it, we have lost one-fifth of the fleet by now." ”
"Find out who that person is?" Eni Randall frowned and said, "She didn't expect that Jocris had already planted a traitor into the royal fleet before she fled. ”
"Lord Tovarian's blessings, those eyes of him have played an important role, these men have been eliminated by us, and we have important information about them." McLandall said.
"Is it important information for Jorgys's camp?" Queen Mother Innie Randall asked rhetorically.
McClandell nodded, "They're going to launch their fleet, as well as the fleet that has stolen from us, to attack the royal city of Dubrovnik at night from the waterways!" ”
