Chapter 410 War Masons Never Fear Death

Knowing that her husband was actually involved in this matter, Tiana, like Peter just now, was also extremely frightened, fearing that this guy would also drag the Crown Guard into trouble.

Fortunately, she felt relieved knowing that the king would not hold them accountable.

After gathering eight companies of fearless vanguards, Tiana ordered two companies to deal with the Cartel and Omar families. The other four companies followed Barrett's command to seize the other four conspirator families. She followed the king to lead the remaining families. The next two companies headed to the Crownguard's mansion in the capital.

Worried about his own family, Peter also applied to follow the king back to his family, and Jarvan IV and Xin Zhao were supposed to be with Jarvan III.

At first, Li Lin didn't want to get involved too much in Demacia's handling of the rebel faction, and was going to go back to his room to wait for the results.

But to his surprise, Jarvan III actually invited him to arrest Eldred. In order to prevent any accidents from happening, he had a guarantee.

After all, according to Newman, Eldred is very likely to have colluded with the Noxians. Moreover, the mysterious man pretending to be the Illuminator has not been found yet, so he must have a very safe hiding place.

Tiana believes that the Crownguard family's mansion is one of them.

After comprehensive consideration, Li Lin agreed to the king's request, and together with them and two companies of fearless vanguards, more than two hundred people rushed towards the south of Dawn Castle.

…

…

More than ten minutes ago, Eldred's room in the Crownguard's mansion.

Eldred, who was wearing regular clothes and with his gray hair disheveled, was pacing back and forth in the spacious room, looking extremely anxious.

Since the issue of the Demon Searchers Association was investigated a few days ago, and a large number of senior officials in important positions were arrested, Eldred was dismissed from his post by the king and placed under house arrest in his room.

Outside the door, there were two shield formations with 16 fearless vanguard soldiers on duty 24 hours a day. Three meals a day were delivered by dedicated servants. He had no chance to step out of his house.

If he had never personally met with the people assigned to do things, otherwise with just a "truth serum", he would have been exposed by those idiots who couldn't do anything clean, and would have been in prison instead of his own room.

"Damn it...how the hell did a damn Li Lin come out halfway!" Eldred cursed.

Fortunately, the fearless pioneers outside knew that he was the husband of Grand Marshal Tiana. Even if they had a bad relationship, they respected him and basically would not disturb him.

In addition, Eldred also took advantage of the Dauntless Vanguard's chat during the shift change to overhear that the King would convene the Shield Council today.

For some reason, there was always an inexplicable throbbing in his heart, which seemed to be some kind of bad premonition, making him very worried about what would happen to those three idiots.

Especially with the special potion "Veritaserum", Eldred was even more worried that an accident might happen in the near future.

If he is exposed by then, it will be all over.

"No, we have to arrange for Fabrice to leave the city quickly..." Eldred muttered.

But he had also seen Li Lin's mechanical troops. The sewers leading to the Galaxy and the Sea of ​​Conquerors were guarded by floating machines, which made him quite anxious.

Then, Eldred glanced at the door of the house and walked over quietly.

Even within the capital, the Crownguard family's mansion looks like a small manor. The walls are made of marble mixed with magic-forbidden lime powder, which not only can suppress magic, but also has a particularly good sound insulation effect.

To be conservative, Eldred opened the door and told him that he wanted to take a bath, which happened to be in line with his bathing pattern in recent times, and asked the guards not to disturb him.

Then, he gently locked the door, closed and locked the window, ran into the bathroom and turned on the shower head, then quickly walked to the bookshelf, quickly picked up the books on the top row twice, and put them together. Pressed on the flat wall.

The next second, with a not too loud "boom" sound, the wall next to the bookshelf slowly opened.

There is no secret room in the Crownguard's mansion. Eldred asked his confidants to secretly dig it out after two years. Anyway, he and Tiana have always slept in separate rooms and have never lived together, so there is no need to worry about being discovered. The problem.

Entering the passage that stretched downward, he pressed on the wall again, and the door of the machine behind him closed with a sound, fitting perfectly with the wall next to it without leaving any trace.

Eldred then calmly walked down the stairs step by step until he reached a small, dark room with an area of ​​about 30 square meters.

Before he could speak, he felt a sudden chill on his neck, accompanied by the sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the air, as a sharp dagger was pressed against his neck.

"Fabriche!" Eldred frowned and shouted softly, and then moved the dagger against his neck, "I said, only I know here, you are safe here."

"As long as I'm in Demacia, no place is safe for me." A clear female voice answered him.

She spoke fluent Demacian, and even had a faint official accent from the capital city.

At first glance, she sounds like a child who grew up in Xiongdu, a true capital city native.

But if a thoughtful person communicates with her, he will find something unusual - her accent is not natural, and even seems to be imitable.

In fact, just from her name "Fabrich", you can hear something unusual.

Demacia has always advocated elegance and sophistication, even in its name.

Fabrice not only sounds like a man's name, but it also has nothing to do with "elegance", but is a bit rough.

Eldred walked to the center of the room and lit the oil lamp with the fire stick on the table, illuminating the small underground space that still smelled like sewers.

The walls in the room were not flat and had obviously been hammered out with hammer after hammer.

There is only a table, a chair, a small locked wooden box, and not even a bed, only a thin mattress spread on the messy thatch in the corner.

There was a small gap in the opposite corner, with a thin iron baffle as a cover. From time to time, the sound of dripping water could be heard. The gap was connected to the sewer under the Crownguard Mansion.

"I will arrange for you to leave the city."

Eldred had a bit of disgust on his face, clearly disgusted with the dirty environment here and the smell of sewers.

However, because he was playing with his back, he was not seen by Fabrice.

"I've heard this from you no less than 30 times these days, Eldred." Fabrich's voice was cold, "You can't protect yourself now. We have completely failed."

"No!" Eldred slammed the table, turned his head with red eyes, and lowered his voice, "We still have a chance..."

Fabrice looked at him for a moment, then sneered and shook his head, "Are you scared?"

"What did you say?!" Eldred became even more excited, "How dare you..."

"A few days ago, you were a person who was inferior to the king and superior to ten thousand people. You relied on the Crown Guard family and the special status of the Demon Searchers Association to do whatever you wanted. But now, you are as pitiful as a bereaved dog."

Eldred's eyes widened, and the veins on his forehead stood out, obviously he was very angry.

"Isn't this still your fucking problem?!" he roared, without the slightest worry that his voice would be heard by the people above.

"Although I thought about letting Silas lead the mage to revolt, according to my idea, at least until Laxana arrives in the capital, let her get in touch with that special guy!

"In this case, with the identity of the Crownguard family, even Tiana will not let her niece be tried. In this case, she will hinder Jarvan III... No, according to my opinion, he will then No longer exists.

"Our young prince will definitely order an investigation into the mage's unrest. With Tiana's help, he can just put aside the relationship with us.

"Taking advantage of the return of the Winged Protector, I will first arrange for assassins to assassinate the king, and then use magic to arouse the negative emotions of the people, and then naturally push them to the mage. It is a perfect plan.

"But it's good for you. The Jamila sent to me is a loser. He couldn't kill an old Jarvan III even with the legendary artifact, and he was captured by that damn Piltover guy and the Ionian... have you!"

Eldred blushed, clenched his fists and slammed the table, "How dare you go past me to see Silas, and let him out. Even if you let him out, he even went to the secretariat." You haven’t even left the boundaries of Silver Pavilion!”

Fabrice maintained an indifferent expression, not affected by the emotions of the man in front of him at all, "This is all arranged by the pale lady."

Eldred choked suddenly and lowered his head.

After a long time, he spoke again: "Hehehe... The pale lady, the pale lady again! Ever since she came to me twenty years ago, just to make all my efforts go in vain today?"

Immediately, he suddenly raised his head and lunged forward, bumping into Fabrice, who was unresponsive. He grabbed her neck and pressed her against the wall. With a little force from his strong right hand, she made it difficult to breathe.

"It won't help if you... kill... now..." Fabrice said with difficulty, "The matter has come to this... there is no... way back..."

Eldred punched the wall on the side of her face with his left hand. After venting his emotions, he let go of her. He sat back in the chair in front of the table dejectedly and let out a heavy breath.

"What shall we do now?" he asked, "What are the plans of the Pale Lady?"

Fabrich did not respond to this question, but walked straight to the wooden box, took out a palm-sized opaque glass jar, and then returned to Eldred.

"What is this?" he asked with a frown.

"Alchemical flames."

Fabriche's answer made Eldred's pupils shrink suddenly.

He had heard of the resounding name "Alchemy Flame".

This is a terrifying chemical weapon from Zaun that was used on the battlefield in Ionia in the past few years.

Due to its extremely unstable, flammable and volatile nature, as long as it is thrown out, it will burn all materials in a large area, even rocks.

Even if it can be extinguished with a large amount of water, the remaining chemicals will still penetrate the local land and cause extremely serious pollution.

It is said that the Wuji Swordsman from Wuji Village was destroyed overnight by this alchemical flame, which caused great obstacles and losses to the advance on Noxus.

On the battlefield of the Navoli Plains, this chemical bomb also instantly destroyed the Navoli guerrillas who wanted to cut off the supply of Noxus, greatly injuring the vitality of the Ionian resistance army.

"Are you fucking crazy?!" Eldred leaned back subconsciously, "Get this damn thing away!"

"This is our only escape route, Eldred." Fabrich said, "But to be precise, it should be yours."

"You don't fucking want to threaten the king with this, do you?"

"As long as we can escape from the capital, I have a hundred ways to get rid of Demacia's pursuers, including the Fearless Vanguard." Fabrice said coldly, "If we really can't escape, we will use this, Die together with the Light Shield Royal Family."

Eldred fell into silence, but in his heart he was furiously insulting the woman in front of him.

As long as he follows his own plan and implements it slowly and steadily, he will not end up in a situation like today.

After thinking about it again and again, he still didn't say what he said.

Just like Fabrice said just now, now that we have reached this point, there is no turning back.

Looking at Eldred's expression, Fabrice continued: "That's why I asked you if you were scared just now."

She paused, "What I mean is... fear of death."

"Ever since we entered into a partnership with the Pale Lady, the word 'fear' has not been in my dictionary, let alone death." Eldred sneered, "What about you?"

Fabrich's expression was serious, "We Noxian war masons never fear death."
