Black Dragon Code

"My lord, Grand Duke Fei Outram was assassinated in the theater this afternoon."

"I know." Joseph Luen sat in a chair, no No serious response, stretched out and rubbed the temple, paused lifts the head, looked towards the happy young bachelor: "You seem to be very happy?"

"Master Marquis..."

The young bachelor's expression was stagnant, his lips moved, and he didn't know how to answer.

It stands to reason that Grand Duke Fei Outram was assassinated and died, and the Master should be quite happy. Taking this opportunity, the Marquis Joseph can just get back all his power.

The Luen family behind Joseph Luen is one of the oldest and most prominent families in central China. Their history can be traced back to the "Bear King" Lothar Luen-the second era A figure from the Northern Migration Period, he once defeated the Ancient Orc coalition in Danger Land in the valley, and then together with other human leaders established the central city-state and built the city of Vigia.

For thousands of years, the Luen family has been the lord and hereditary replacement of the Virginia city-state and surrounding areas. Until 25 years ago, the former King of Virginia attacked the giant. During the battle of dragon, he was killed and devoured by the ancient red dragon "Queen" Aksuye. After this happened, Tashan immediately assigned his protagonist, Duke Fei Onan, to Virginia to act as the governor.

"A young child cannot govern a city-state." These are the original words of the head of Tashan.

There was nothing wrong with this sentence at the time, but it was not until a long time later that people understood the profound meaning. On the surface, Joseph Luen could still inherit the father’s duchy, Fiefdom, The army and all taxes, but in reality, except for the dukedom, all matters of the Virginia city-state are handled by Fei Onan as the governor. After a period of time, under the double suppression of the Tashan head of state and Fei Onan, The power of the Luen family was gradually eroded, and its influence was diminishing.

Even so, the ruler of the whole territory in the Holy City of Pudasius still refused to give up. Fifteen years ago, after Fei Onan took full control of the situation in Virginia, Tashan found it at will For this reason, he directly attacked the Duke of Joseph’s head and cut Duke Joseph to the next marquis. This incident shocked the entire Trading City-States at that time. Since then, the famous Luen family has been completely destroyed. Defeated the mortal dust, and never recovered.

From this origin, Joseph Luen’s hatred towards Duke Fei Onan and the head of Tashan can be imagined, but what puzzles the bachelor is that for Fei Onan’s death, Joseph The Marquis not at all showed a hint of pleasure, but seemed a bit... annoying?

Joseph pondered for a while, rubbed his face, raised his head and asked: "Where is the murderer? Has it been caught?"

"Has been caught by the guards." The young bachelor could not read. Knowing his mind, he dared not say anything: "But that guy refused to explain who he was and who was instigated by him. He committed suicide an hour ago."

"This is a planned Murder, no one has seen him before?"

The bachelor shook his head: "I have asked anyone on the patrol team, and they all said that they have never seen him before, and they are a stranger. The identity of this person is still being investigated and verified. ."

"Take me to see the killer." Joseph stood up.

So the bachelor led him with a group of attendants and guards to a fortified camp in the Governor's Mansion. After the killer was captured, he had committed suicide halfway and was responsible for the arrest before he could take him into the dungeon. Soldiers of, knowing that they are incapable of escape, panic for a while, and do not know how to deal with them, so they can only temporarily park their bodies here.

The deceased was locked in a dark room, with shackles on his hands and feet, dischevelled hair, but his face was very calm. The priest said that he had been cursed beforehand, and he seemed to have the consciousness of death.

"You go out first and leave me alone for a while." Joseph said.

"My lord, this..." The soldier was a little hesitant.

"Why, worried about the resurrection of the undead, I was killed by a dead man?" Joseph glared at him.

People did not dare to say any more, stepping back one by one, closing the door, Nuo Da's dark prison room, only the cold candlelight, and the faintly discernable negative energy atmosphere.

Marquis Joseph raised his head slightly and closed his eyes.

next moment, the tiny negative energy overflowing from the corpse soared like wildfire against the wind. It filled the room in the blink of an eye, cheering excitedly around Joseph, and then rushed towards the corpse. The dead roamed.

Half a while, Joseph re-eyes opened, and the negative energy disappeared without a trace. He let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Duke of Virginia, Master of Elements Fei Onan He was assassinated by an ordinary person. After his death, he couldn’t even enter the Divine Kingdom. If I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I would not believe it myself.”

He was silent after he said, clenched his fist, and decided Looking at the corpse fixedly, it lasted for a few minutes, until a few drops of red blood dripped from his hands.

both of his hands The green veins were exposed, and he pierced the palm with a nail!

"Damn it."

Joseph suddenly scolded fiercely, and his voice was colder than the wind of winter: "Fifteen years, fifteen years, you don’t know me How many things I have done, vassals, territories, armies and people’s popularity, I could have regained Vigia smoothly. I am already the master of Vigia, but Fei Onan, you actually killed him directly. Now! Give up all your previous work, give up all your previous work!"

"What is Fei Onan, I can kill him anytime I want, but I can kill one Fei Onan, and the second Fei Onan. Three Fei Onan, it took me fifteen years to let Tashan relax his vigilance. How can you do this? How can you do this!?" Marquis Joseph's hands trembled.

, The words squeezed out between the teeth: "The Black Wing Empire—"

Using the shadowy death spiritual energy, Joseph knew that the assassination was the handwriting of the Black Wing Empire, and the killer was before the action He took a special medicine to come to Fei Outram and kill people through repeated tests. Such things are currently only available in Northland.

However, Tashan, the ruler of Trading City-States, would not believe these words. Once Fei Outram died, he would become a direct beneficiary and the most suspicious target, and he would definitely be investigated. Joseph Luen knew very well that there is no secret that will never be revealed. Whether or not Fei Outram killed himself, as long as Tashan starts to investigate in this direction, there will always be some clues about what he has done in the past 15 years.

What makes the Marquis Joseph wonder is whether the Blackwing Empire’s assassination plan is aimed at Fei Onan, who is against them everywhere, or is he aware of his own insider's deliberate persecution?

The former will make Joseph lament the influence of the Northern Empire, while the latter will make Joseph feel deeply afraid.

Of course, in any case, he has been driven to ruin.

"There is no way." Joseph sighed, his face slowly returned to normal peace and quiet from the non-human coldness and darkness before, and he shook his hand, letting the wound and blood on the palm of his hand disappear gradually. Immediately remove the soundproof magic of the room, and slowly leave the confinement room.

Back to his mansion, Joseph Luen waved back his servant, stepped into the secret passage in the mansion, walked through the long dark corridor, and said to the dark poisonous snake in the corner: "Fei Ou Once Nan dies, we have no retreat, and we don’t have to hide and lie in the future."

He face turned cold: "Informed the vassal to mobilize the army and raid Kohor tomorrow night. Without the old bastard of Jon Arthur, I will do it the day after tomorrow. It is not difficult to see the bear flag of the Luen family planted at the head of Kohor."

It is not difficult. The king of Kohor, Legendary blademaster Jon Arthur, died in the attack on the Northland, and the elite troops of Kohor city-state were all lost. , Now that the big city-state is presided over by a woman, there is not much remaining resistance, and there is a big gap between it and Vigia.

It’s just that the poisonous snake in the shadow doesn’t understand the meaning of this move: "Offensing Kohor will give us not at all any substantial benefits."

"It’s no good, but also It has to be done. Cut the retreat and show determination." Marquis Joseph said, "Didn't they always want to intervene in Trading City-States? We also force them to put everything on the surface. I don't believe it. , They will ignore Virginia."

"Understood." The poisonous snake said yes, hiding in the dark.

"The war is about to begin." Joseph Luen stared at the thick and inconsistent black fog, and the flames rose in his eyes: "I didn't expect it to start. After thirty years, I can successfully master the Ten Great Cities state, and there may be opportunities for hegemony, but now..."
