Chapter 225 Secret Meeting of the Green Vine Family
Green Vine City, in the secret room of Lord Dolan's castle.
Under the glare of the candlelight, the chubby face of the Dolan clan lingered with lingering gloom. This patriarch, who usually looks like a kind old man, now sat on the simple wicker chair with a kind of calm and prestige. It seems that there is still a little bit of weak and talkative appearance on weekdays.
Standing behind Patriarch Dolan is the only official-level powerhouse of the Luteng family—the old warrior Bei Ge'an, while a circle of old men in dark clothes sat around the round table in front of him.
All the old men, without exception, all wore the badges of the Luteng family neatly, and the badges were all wiped clean without exception.
These people are the real power elders of the Luteng family, and each has the right to interfere with the direction of the entire family. Generally speaking, these frail old people will gather in the Luteng family only when the survival crisis of the Luteng family occurs. Chamber of Secrets.
At this time, the secret room of the meeting was extremely quiet, only the deep or shallow breathing of the people was faintly visible, and everyone was waiting for the person sitting on the main seat—the current patriarch of the Luteng family, Dolan-Lvteng, to speak. Speaking without authorization at this time, they all knew what kind of vigorous and resolute behavior that fat man had hidden under that submissive mask.
Dolan looked around deeply at the elders present, and then spoke in a hoarse voice:
"As the 32nd patriarch of the Luteng family, I am now holding a secret family meeting under the witness of my ancestors. At this secret meeting, everyone is only allowed to discuss the specified content, and all accountability will be postponed to after the crisis is over."
Dolan's tone was full of doubts, and all the elders couldn't help being shocked after hearing the word "crisis".
Facing the puzzled eyes of the elders, Dolan sighed faintly, and turned over the two pieces of parchment on the table:
"I got two bad news this afternoon...According to the urgent magic message from members of the Wangcheng family, the Archmage Sangers, the protector of the Kingdom of Dylan, and the Archbishop Kaspaqi, the branch church of the Church of Dawn in the Kingdom of Dylan, were in Dylan. After a fierce battle, King Lun's King City "Yajiao City" has... died together"!
"What... this... is this true?"
"How is it possible? If they died together, wouldn't it mean that Kaspaqi also died in Yajiao City?"
"It's over, the Kingdom of Dylan is over... a master bishop died here... The Church of Dawn will never let it go..."
"What can we do, the Glory Army has retreated steadily..."
"Don't panic, Princess Trelinka is now the only orthodox royal family. As long as we declare our surrender, the Church of Dawn belongs to the good camp after all, and they must let us go!"
Hearing Dolan's news, the quiet secret room immediately exploded, and the elders immediately argued about various methods, but most of them were inclined to persuade Princess Trelinka to surrender to the Church of Dawn.
"Quiet"! !
Seeing that the scene was extremely chaotic for a while, the worried Dolan yelled, and his hoarse voice made a sound that made the candle flicker at this time.
Hearing the patriarch's yell, the elders suddenly remembered what Dolan said just now, he got bad news not from one... two.
Thinking of this, even the elders with the loudest voices looked at the other parchment in Dolan's hand with masks of horror. It is bad enough bad news to know that Kaspaqi and Master Sangers died together. How bad is news that can be compared with such bad news?
Dolan, who was stared at by more than a dozen pairs of astonished eyes, almost tremblingly picked up another piece of parchment, and he had to tell these elders - there is no worst news, only worse news:
"According to the report from the scout team following the "Nightcrawler" dispatched a day ago...they did not find the whereabouts of the Nightcrawler, but found it on the official road of Dylan Kingdom..."
After reading this, Dolan's always sonorous and powerful words trembled involuntarily.
"...the body of Cullen, the messenger of the Kingdom of Kamos, was discovered"!
"..."
There was a breathless silence in the conference room...
Dolan slowly put down the parchment in his hand, tremblingly took out a small bottle of medicine from his pocket and drank it to stop the rapid increase in blood pressure.
After hearing the news, none of the elders spoke, and many of them took out the potion and drank it to prevent themselves from fainting.
This approach of the elders of the Green Vine family is not an exaggeration at all, because the second news announced by Dolan is too horrifying, horrifying to the point of despair.
Everyone knows that as early as Princess Trelinka launched the uprising, the Kingdom of Kamos had already wanted to take advantage of the civil strife in the Dylan Kingdom to attack aggressively, but after all, they came from unknown sources. The title of "evil" is finished.
Being labeled as evil on the plane of Faerun will attract the attack of the Church of the Good God and good adventurers. It is precisely because the Kingdom of Kamos cannot be born without a name that Princess Trelinka will be in Kamo. Launched an uprising under the watchful eyes of the Kingdom of Sri Lanka.
But now the special envoy of the Kingdom of Kamos died on the territory of the Kingdom of Dylan, and he died within less than a day after meeting Trelinka. It just so happened that he angered Trelinka before leaving Princess, and theoretically, the only person in the vicinity of Ivy City that can pose a threat to a special envoy led by an official-level fighter is the official-level powerhouse in Ivy City, and the wound on Cullen's body happened to be caused by physical damage.
Now, so many "happens" point to Green Vine City and Princess Trelinka, but Dylan Kingdom claims that Cullen was killed by a passing thug...Who would believe it! Don't mention prophecy spells, there are some methods that can interfere with prophecy spells, especially in the case of Dylan Kingdom's master-level powerhouse who protects the country and is a spellcaster.
All in all, the Kingdom of Kamos wanted to go to war very much, and their special envoy was likely to be assassinated by the Kingdom of Dylan. The special envoy who was killed was still the heir of the honorable Marquis. Now the Kingdom of Kamos said that "dignity must be trampled on and must fight for dignity" declared war on Dylan Kingdom in the name of God of Justice, even the church of Heim, the God of Justice, would not intervene, and the Church of Dawn, which ostensibly called "never interfere in internal affairs", could only choose to wait and see.
And Green Vine City is located on the border of Dylan Kingdom and Kamos Kingdom. Princess Trelinka is still in this city. The burning flames of war must be the first to burn this city. The Green Vine Family has no way to retreat. .
If Green Vine City relied on the kingdom's support before the civil strife in Dylan Kingdom, it might not be powerless to fight, but now... the kingdom that has become a puppet of the Church of Dawn would not send chasing troops to make trouble. It is impossible to resist the main force of the Kamos Kingdom, which has been recharging its energy for a long time.
The elders in the secret room of the Luteng family took a person who was not political. Within a few minutes, everyone wanted to understand the stakes, but it was precisely because they understood that everyone couldn't help but fell silent. .
They... didn't know what to do at all, and couldn't figure out how to keep the Luvine family that was about to fall.
