Chapter 653: Diverting trouble to the east(1/2)
Wow!
Most of the things on the table were swept away. The furious Archduke Stan flew into a rage, picked up the things and threw them. All the subordinates stood on the spot with their heads lowered, welcoming the baptism of debris.
"Master!" the butler called.
Grand Duke Stan stopped throwing things, followed the butler's gaze, turned his head and saw that he was actually holding a white jade lion in his hand.
He suddenly took a breath of air.
This is his favorite thing, the most satisfying thing he inherited from his dead ghost father.
When he was still young and working as a stable boy, he once passed by the study of the last Archduke Stan and saw this little lion through the window.
There was no one in the study at that time, so he quietly opened the window and jumped in.
The moment he touched the little lion, little Stan's life immediately changed. He became ambitious and wanted to own this lion.
Stealing is out of the question, it can be easily traced.
He put the little lion away, said goodbye to it, and then began the arduous and long counterattack. Whenever he encountered difficulties or needed to make a major decision, he would secretly run to talk to the white jade little lion.
It seems like I can draw strength from it.
To Grand Duke Stan, this thing should be like the tiger in Life of Fantasy.
After stroking the little lion, Grand Duke Stan calmed down completely and was no longer angry. He even wanted to laugh a little. He had never encountered anything before and he really shouldn't be angry over such a trivial matter.
"Simmons, tell me what happened and how you survived."
Everyone else was standing, but Simmons was kneeling there, looking particularly eye-catching. When he heard Archduke Stan ask him, he immediately replied: "Sir, actually I don't know what happened. The camp was attacked at the beginning.
Regarding the attack, Lao Yin and I discussed it and immediately led the people to chase and kill them. The three of them stayed behind to guard the prisoners..."
"With your strength, what is the situation of the enemy that makes it worthy for you to pursue him for so long?" the steward asked from the side.
"My... subordinates are incompetent, but there seem to be a lot of enemies, and they are too cunning. If they don't confront me head-on, they just keep running, running, running, running..." Splinter Man Simmons answered honestly,
And he also had an expression of shame.
"Okay, don't run away, keep talking." Archduke Stan patted the table.
"Yes, and when I went back, the cell was opened, and Lao Yin and the others... wu wu wu, Sir Duke, you must avenge my brother." Splinter Simons hugged Grand Duke Stan's thigh.
Grand Duke Stan and the butler looked at each other, and the butler shook his head.
"Bring in the corpses and things." Grand Duke Stan ordered, and then someone immediately brought in the chains and the corpses of several ability users.
"The chain was almost corroded, and then it was broken by the shadow." The old housekeeper went to the scene to inspect.
"So there is a traitor? You don't know anything about what happened at that time? Why was the Flame Man petrified to death?" Grand Duke Stan looked at the Splinter Man and couldn't help but doubt him.
After all, he is the only Level 4 ability user who survived.
"I don't know either. They were still fine when I left. It's impossible for Lao Huo to be a traitor, so Lao Shi just attacked him. Isn't that more reasonable?" Splinter Man was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
"Nonsense!" Archduke Stan yelled, but he looked suspicious, obviously doubting this possibility.
If that's the case, it can explain why the shadow can break free of this chain.
Corroding the chains, this had to be said to be a good idea. It really broke the seamless defense of the cell. I originally thought that four level four ability users and a large group of guards would be foolproof.
"So, this line of defense has always been broken through from the inside." Archduke Stan sighed.
At this time, someone came back from outside, walked directly to the Grand Duke, and whispered a few words in his ear.
The old housekeeper stood close and was a close confidant, so he craned his neck and heard roughly.
"That Iron Horse Glacier has been in Huggins all day today. I'm sure he didn't have time to commit the crime!"
"It shouldn't be that kid. We just helped him win a territory. Both parties are very optimistic about him. He would be crazy to do such a thing." The old housekeeper shook his head.
"If it were him, he would be so heartless." Grand Duke Stan also felt that it was not Su Mo.
The two of them eliminated Su Mo immediately.
According to normal people's understanding, as a territorial Su Mo, he has a family, career and connections, and it is impossible for him to imitate those desperadoes.
What's more, both Archduke Stan and Count Dracula valued him very much.
In the new camp, Su Mo is a popular little celebrity. If it becomes a big deal in the future, he is an upstart who wants to reward based on his merits. He is willing to take such risks when he is full and full.
"I don't know if that Iron Horse Glacier has a conscience, but I don't think we can draw conclusions so easily." Surprisingly, the Splinter Man actually poured dirty water on Su Mo.
Is he tired of living a crooked life and wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife?
Of course not, this is actually what Laifujiao said to him, which would eliminate the suspicion of collusion between him and Su Mo, and make it easier for Grand Duke Stan to believe what Separatist Simons said next.
"Tell me about it..." Grand Duke Stan really cherishes talents. In his mind, the Splinter Man has at least developed from "No matter what the truth is, kill him before talking about it" to "Maybe there is a hidden secret. This survivor is actually innocent.
of".
"I'm in charge of patrolling the camp. Since yesterday, I've found a lot of adventurers snooping around," Splinter Simons said.
"Adventurer?" Archduke Stan frowned.
Is it really Su Mo, or is this all a trick by Simmons to divert attention?
"Sir, what Sir Simmons said is true. Since yesterday, many people have begun to appear near the camp, and some people even want to break into the camp." A person with abilities one level lower than level four stood up and spoke.
.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He is also a survivor of the camp.
In fact, not many people died in the camp. The Splinterers cleverly mobilized these ability users below level 4 and ordinary guards. They seemed very busy and active, but in fact, what they got was simply blind command.
These people all became Simmons' witnesses.
People kept coming forward to say that they had indeed discovered someone spying on them, and they had caught a few of them and confirmed the identities of the other adventurers.
"Another person actually rushed up to me and asked me if I had any so-called main missions. It was really ridiculous. My subordinate gave him a knife at that time." One of the guards said this.
"Adventurers appeared in large numbers and finally began to attack the camp. I thought that there were three masters staying in the cell, so it would be absolutely foolproof. I never thought of a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. I feel guilty for trusting the Duke and ask for punishment." Splinter Man
The critical moment has come.
According to the big bad wolf, as long as you have good acting skills at this time, not only will you not die, but you may even be reused by the Duke.
"I feel bad for losing three lovebirds. Even killing someone is not enough to vent my anger. However, Simmons, what did you do wrong? Why should I punish you? Get up. There is something wrong with my layout, which has caused everyone to suffer like this.
I'm sorry for everyone's loss."
To be honest, Grand Duke Stan is indeed a man who cherishes his talents.
Looking at his rise, in fact, he does not have super powerful force, nor does he have the brains and qualifications of a tyrant, nor does he have the aura blessing of the protagonist who can succeed even if he is willing to die. His ability to reach this point is completely because he cherishes it.
Talent, especially those with ability.
Hearing Grand Duke Stan say this, everyone comforted him one after another.
"So, why are these adventurers near the camp? Who are they? Haven't you caught some of them? You have also talked to them. They all reported to me what they know." The old housekeeper said.
Grand Duke Stan dismissed everyone and continued to be depressed, while the old butler waited for information.
The information was quickly compiled into a booklet. The old butler flipped through it and unfolded a certain page and sent it to Grand Duke Stan.
"What is this?" Grand Duke Stan was a little confused.
"Just call over and ask," the old housekeeper said.
It is not difficult to call people. The Brotherhood has set up a contact point in the territory of Archduke Stan. If you have anything to say there, it will be immediately conveyed to the ears of the chickens.
When Dapanji gets the information, no matter how busy he is, he will rush over as quickly as possible.
After all, no matter how important things are, they are not as important as the main mission.
This time, Dapanji was called in front of Grand Duke Stan. He thought there was some main mission, and he felt very happy in his heart.
"I heard that you adventurers call what you are doing now the main mission, right?" Grand Duke Stan sat high up.
He did treat the virtuous corporal, but that was towards ability users, not adventurers. Even if the adventurers were ability users, NPCs generally looked down upon adventurers.
I think Count Dracula also looked down on Su Mo back then and just treated him as cannon fodder and an errand boy.
Dapanji didn't like this. He was the pride of heaven both in the game and in reality. Why should he bow down to an NPC? So he regarded his relationship with Archduke Stan as more of an exchange of interests.
We have a cooperative relationship, I am not your lackey.
"Yes, serving the Grand Duke is the main mission." Da Panji said.
"I lost a camp today, and three level four ability users died. Did you know?" Grand Duke Stan stared at Da Panji, not missing any expression on Da Panji's face.
"What?" Dapanji was stunned.
He really didn't know about this and didn't have time to get the relevant report.
"You don't know?" Archduke Stan narrowed his eyes.
"This...I really don't know, why should I know?" Da Panji was confused.
"If you don't know, why are your people sneaking around the camp and asking if there is anyone who needs help? Something happened not long after asking." Grand Duke Stan found it hard to believe how innocent Da Panji was.
First of all, your people are indeed nearby. Secondly, the players participated in the attack on the camp. In the end, everyone got the stolen goods. You are pretending to be innocent in front of me. Do you think I am stupid?
"Your Excellency, please listen to my explanation." Dapanji was anxious.
