Chapter 401 Taking the Initiative



"Barrington, why did things suddenly turn out like this?"

Viscount Tiny Purple Thunder looked distressed as he questioned his son-in-law.

"Your sister is still Wiggins' wife, and your nephew is still the heir of Wushanbao. Even if we want to control more territory or even become the master behind Wushan Territory, we have a simpler way than declaring war on Wushanbao!"

Barrington looked indifferent, "Viscount Tiny, don't you know that old man Rulans has recovered? Wait until he dies, then wait for Wiggins to die, and then my nephew will inherit the title of Marquis. How long will that take?"

"Even if you win, does that mean Wushan Territory will be yours?"

Tiny shook his head bitterly, knowing that it was useless to say more.

From the time when Miloslav was attacked and killed, there was no turning back for the Hyde family, and the earls and nobles who were dependent on them were also doomed.

"Tini, stop talking nonsense. As the founder of the Skull and Bones Society, you sent people to assassinate Lulans's beloved grandson Luo Ning. You didn't commit such a crime and still expect Wushanbao to forgive you alone, right?"

Orson sneered, not giving his relative any face at all, "All you can do now is lead your troops and other nobles to fight for me, so that you may still have a chance of survival."

He clenched his fists and said, "To tell you the truth, I am very strong now!"

Tiny took a deep breath and suppressed his unhappiness, "Okay Orson, I will support you and pray that what you are doing is right."

This time, the Principality of Vera did not send the Black Gold Brotherhood for support, so it was unable to disperse the troops of Wushan Castle. Without external aid, it was impossible for an earldom to compete with Wushan Castle and the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce.

Orson's arrogance left Tiny speechless. What was their chance of winning?

Those militiamen in sackcloth outside the castle?

In fact, Barrington had already sent a message to Duke Andrea, but the other party took into consideration that the incident was caused by Miroslav, and also knew that the royal family had arranged for Broll, the deputy commander of the Griffin Knights, to come and assist.

Andrea didn't want to be too ostentatious, nor did he want to offend the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce and the royal family, so he did not let the Black Gold Brotherhood attack.

However, he did not do nothing. At least he strengthened his military forces in Heishan Mountain, making this point firmly fixed on the land of Wushan Territory like a nail.

"Of course my approach is accurate. Haha, chaos will spread across the land of Wushan Territory! Since Lu Lans has been preparing for so many days and still hasn't taken action, we will take the initiative and act first!"

Orson stood up and said, "Barrington, you lead your team and Viscount Tiny to raid Brilliant City now!"

Tiny was shocked. He didn't expect that under such circumstances, Orson would divide his forces and take the initiative to attack.

Before he could make a suggestion, Barrington readily accepted the order.

"As you wish, I believe we will soon be able to spread fear and death throughout the Brilliant City!"

"Go ahead!"

There was a smile on Orson's face, as if victory was waving to him.

In fact, since following Mephisto, they have gradually lost their original minds.

Becoming the lord of Wushan Territory and strengthening the Hyde family were their former goals. What they have to do now is to implement Mephisto's plan - to bring the greatest trauma and chaos to the nobles of Wushan Territory.

On the other hand, when Ronin passed over Wushan Town, he asked Carlos to fly to Shore City to inform Ridal to come over, and McKen would be in charge of that place temporarily.

He himself used the Wings of Wind to come to the Baron's Castle in Melonica.

"Griffin?"

Roning landed on the ground and saw the griffin not far away. He knew that the royal family had finally arrived.

He came to the living room and saw Brower congratulating Rulans on his recovery. In addition to the two of them, there were also Miroslav, Melonica and a white-haired old man.

"Haha, Roning is back."

When Lu Lans saw Luo Ning coming in, he quickly introduced him with a smile.

"Broll, you know him. This is His Excellency Dawn Box. Like Miroslav, he is not only one of the vice presidents of the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce and the head of the Golden Feather City branch, but he is also a powerful great magician!"

Luo Ning greeted them one by one.

Having said that, Dawn himself was also very surprised.

What kind of friendship could there be between Ronin and Bellola? One was less than 20 years old, and the other was over 100 years old. How could they know each other?

Lu Lans was also a little surprised. It seemed that his grandson had experienced something he didn't know about.

Roning shook hands with Dawn and said, "After this matter, please convey my regards to Mr. Bellola!"

Broll also said at this time: "Ronin, His Majesty also has something to say to you and the Marquis. No matter how things go between you and Black Python City, you must appear in Golden Feather City before June 14th."

He looked at Lu Lansi and said, "Of course, it would be the best if you could come with me."

Rulans stroked his white beard, knowing that His Majesty the King was worried that the postponement of the marriage would affect the reputation of the royal family.

"Don't worry, even if I can't leave, Luo Ning will go to Jinyu City with you."

“That’s the best!”

They chatted for a while before Luo Ning interrupted.

"Everyone, I took some time to go to Black Python City for observation and found out something very important. The difficulty of this war will increase!"

Huh? The last sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention.

In their opinion, with the three Meteor Knights, Rulans, Melonica, and Broll, plus the two great magicians, Miroslav and Dawn, Black Python City should be unable to fight back with such a lineup.

"What could possibly increase the difficulty of the war?"

Dawn asked in confusion, "Could it be that Orson has a new expert to help?"

Next, Luo Ning told about what he had seen and heard in Black Python City, and also mentioned the characteristics of the Wuhun Clan that made them difficult to kill.

After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Whether it was the Wuhun Clan's immortality or the fact that they transformed ordinary people into "puppets", it all subverted their cognition.

The two knowledgeable magicians Dawn and Miloslav frowned. They had never heard of this ethnic group.

"If what you said is true, then this Wuhun tribe is the servant of the devil!"

Dawn frowned, looking through the phenomenon to the essence. If this kind of servant affairs were to expand to other places, the adverse effects would be unprecedentedly huge.

Broll nodded. "I'll have one of my Griffin Knights check it out."

He looked at Lu Lansi: "If this is the case, Lord Marquis, we need to act as soon as possible!"

"The Wuhun Clan..."

Rulans murmured the name, and the resentment and anger in his heart gradually rose.

He has been tortured by the power of the Witch Soul over the years. Now, not only has he discovered the existence of the so-called Witch Soul Clan, but the other party has even attacked thousands of innocent civilians. Such behavior makes him very angry.

He had great trust in Ronin's intelligence, and whether Broll went to investigate or not, the war must be started as soon as possible.

"There is no need for us to wait any longer for the noble team that has a long way to go. Melonica, go and inform the captain and the knights now and have them prepare to set off tomorrow!"

Melonica said solemnly, "Yes, sir!"

The Griffin Knight was very efficient and returned with the information he had discovered before sunset in the afternoon.

There were no people like those Luo Ning mentioned outside the Black Python Castle, but they found that there was a large group of people on the southeast side heading towards Wushan Town. At the same time, another group of soldiers on the north side were crossing the plains.

"Orson actually took the initiative to attack. The team in the north..."

Lu Lansi looked at the map behind him and narrowed his eyes: "He wants to raid Brilliant City." (End of this chapter)
