Chapter 821 Meeting

"My lord, your guest is here," a maid said as the curtain was lifted.

"Invite him to come in." Otto Losey took out a silver wolf and handed it to the bartender next to him, "I have nothing to do with you for now, I will call you if necessary."

"Yes, my lord."

"Is this the hiding place you mentioned?" The man who came in took off his hood and looked around with a frown. "If it wasn't for the guards of the Luoxi family standing outside the door, I would have thought I had found the wrong place."

"It's really not easy asking you to show up now, so of course we can't deal with it casually," Otto grinned.

The person who came was "a member of the embassy who betrayed the trust of the Lord of Dawn, killed the guard knights, and fled the City of Glory with his fallen minions" - Hill Fox. Ever since he noticed that Yorko and his party had left without saying goodbye, the lord of Dawn, Ampein Moore, was furious, declaring that this was Graycastle's blatant provocation and contempt for Dawn, and said that it was the witch who killed his father, and he would never allow his own There is such an evil presence on the territory.

Of course, Otto knew much more than that. For example, while searching for the witches, Ampey sent a squad of knights to chase down the messenger group. He gave the order that everyone except Yorko could be disposed of at will, especially those who dared to fight with them. None of the witches colluding with neighboring countries can be let go. At the same time, Wangcheng also carried out investigation activities. Denise, a businesswoman who had a close relationship with the ambassador before, was taken to the palace for questioning several times. Hill and others who took the initiative to stay as contacts disappeared as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

It wasn't until several months later that the wind gradually died down that he received another message from the other party.

This can be regarded as their first meeting after their farewell.

"Do you need something to drink?" Otto patted the limp beside him, "You don't usually have the chance to enjoy these, do you?"

Hill didn't sit down, but walked to the window and looked out, "This is the second floor, what about the reliable way out that you mentioned in the secret letter?"

Losey's eldest son sighed helplessly, stood up and lifted off the collapsed plank, revealing the dark hollow below.

"Slide down from here, and you will land in the back garden. There is not only a secret door in the yard, but also a dry well. You can go anywhere you want."

"No one knows this way?"

"Of course, together with this tavern, they are all run by the Rossi family." He spread his hands, "Master Yorko is really right in calling you a fox. You are still as cautious as before."

"If I can't do this, I'm afraid I'm already hanging on the gallows." Hill took out a coin and dropped it down the secret passage. After listening to the sound for a while, he closed the wooden board. "If you want to tell me any news in the future, you should contact me by secret letter. It's not safe to meet like this."

"Confidential communication is also a big risk for me. If the information in the palace is leaked, His Majesty Anpein will be the first to suspect the three major families," Otto sighed, "He is no longer It’s the same friend we used to talk about.”

Hill raised his brows, noncommittal, "So, has the Lord of Dawn made any new moves?"

"He intends to attack the Church of Hermes to avenge his father," Losey's eldest son slowly said the conversation he heard during the court meeting, "Despite the dissuasion of the ministers, His Majesty insisted on doing so. Now Glory City has The food collection has started, and when the evil month is over and the snow melts, they should start to act, and then the Royal Knights will go out together with the Duke of Cabo, who is in charge of the western wilderness."

"I said why the price of porridge recently cost a bronze eagle... Fortunately, Chenxi has enough supplies. If it is replaced by Graycastle, if the lord does not want to cause riots, he will definitely not prepare for war in the evil moon." Hill Ruo Thoughtful, "Is there something wrong with Hermes?"

Otto knew the meaning of the other party's question. Although the church and Graycastle had a battle in Coldwind Ridge, and there was news that the Holy City was defeated, further information was obtained that the two sides retreated to their own territories. All the ministers agreed that the church may have suffered heavy losses, but it was not completely defeated. Otherwise, the king of Graycastle should lead his troops to the Holy City to plunder—as the core city of the church, the wealth accumulated there Certainly not a minority.

Probably the God's Punishment Warriors brought by the Purity left a deep impression on Amperin, so much so that he stayed at the step of continuing to send spies to inquire about information, and did not take other actions.

Now that the situation has changed, it is only possible that something new has been discovered over there.

As for whether to avenge his father or take advantage of the fire to rob, that doesn't matter at all.

"His Majesty did not disclose the specific news to us, but I heard from the merchants who returned from the west that there seemed to be many refugees in the old holy city."

"Refugees..." Hill touched his chin and nodded, "I will pass this information back to Neverwinter."

"One more thing," Otto said after hesitating, "During the court meeting last week, the Minister of Foreign Affairs mentioned Graycastle—he said that Roland Wimbledon was not the real ruler of Graycastle. The enthronement ceremony was held, and he did not live in the palace. Even many nobles in the kingdom opposed him, especially in the east. Since he has trampled on the covenant between the two countries, Dawn also needs to guard against and contain him, such as supporting those The nobles continue to resist Wimbledon's rule."

"Oh?" Hill's expression suddenly became serious, "What about the Lord of Dawn's response?"

"Your Majesty didn't reply right away, but judging by his expression... he should be very interested in this matter."

Otto didn't know why he told Hill about these things...or rather, told Roland. Judging from the current situation, the relationship between Graycastle and Dawn is deteriorating. He should stand by Ampein Moa, just like the Rossi family has assisted the Moa royal family for generations.

But he still couldn't convince himself to accept His Majesty's policy. The extermination of witches meant including Andrea Quinn, but the latter was by no means the evil person that Amperin said. He had explained to His Majesty more than once the relationship between church chaste and witches, but in the end it was all in vain.

Ampin no longer sees them as arms.

Otto also found that although he still called the other party His Majesty, he lost the respect he had when facing the old king.

After much deliberation, perhaps it was because he thought he was powerless to change Chenxi's current situation, so he could only put his hope on Graycastle—in Neverwinter, he saw Andrea living freely, in order not to break that life, he hoped that Roland's rule would continue.

"I understand," Hill said in a deep voice, "don't worry, this plan will not succeed."

Otto nodded and took a deep breath, "Then...can you tell me something about Miss Quinn's recent situation?"
