Chapter 473: Storm is coming (Subscribe)
As the power center of Flower Territory, Lion Manor is definitely the center of everyone's attention.
Every order issued here involves huge interests, affects the lives and destinies of countless people, and can even affect the rise and fall of the market and price fluctuations.
Therefore, countless people in the entire city of Brussels were staring at the Lion Manor almost day and night, paying attention to every piece of news coming out from here.
About ten minutes' walk east of the Lion Manor, there is an entire street where envoys sent by various countries and nobles live.
They will pass every piece of information they collect to the financial backers as quickly as possible and make corresponding adjustments as quickly as possible.
Many kingdoms don’t have such a strong position!
After all, there are many in the kingdom, and this may be the only one that does the "three-family" business.
But today, before they finished dinner, something terrifying happened to everyone.
Lion Manor is under martial law!
The black-clad swordsmen surrounded the place, not allowing anyone to enter or leave.
If it were anywhere else, it would be a complete coup.
It’s a pity that there are only two male lions in Flower Territory, one of whom is still breastfeeding, so there is no possibility of a coup.
But martial law is still in place!
These professional intelligence collectors naturally have extremely keen senses and are almost certain that something big has happened.
They moved almost without hesitation, each using their own connections to dig up deeper information.
Unfortunately, they didn't have much time, and the lord's mansion was the first to riot.
Please note that the word "riot" is used here to represent the intensity of the subsequent actions.
First there was martial law, and the entire city of Brussels was under curfew, which was almost unprecedented.
A large number of police were driven onto the streets, leading the knights of the lord's mansion and the soldiers of the Royal Guard, and drove the people on the streets back home.
Then, a large number of black-clad swordsmen were dispatched.
They are like the undercurrent in the darkness of the night, surging past, finding the location precisely, breaking the door, intimidating, and arresting!
With the development of Flower Territory, there are too many secret agents here, who are almost digging into every possible way to uncover the secrets of the Raymond family.
The Brotherhood actually knew all of this, but in the past, they felt that arresting them was meaningless.
Why capture them and then send some more powerful people over to hide them more secretly?
Therefore, under Luo Yi's suggestion, they just turned a blind eye and leaked some information from time to time so that these people could take it back to report.
These people are not stupid. Since the Flower Leader is willing to coexist, they are even happier.
The above task is very important, but your life is your own, so, with a tacit understanding, everything is fine!
But today, this tacit understanding was broken.
The Lord's Mansion struck hard, almost like a whirlwind sweeping away fallen leaves, aiming to catch all those with ulterior motives in Brussels.
It should be said that the long period of comfort made many spies lose their vigilance, and when faced with the black swordsman, they were caught without much resistance.
But some strong people chose to fight back!
The light of fighting spirit illuminated the night, the waves of magic caused ripples, and from time to time there were roars and growls, as if venting their dissatisfaction.
But this is Brussels, the heart of the Raymond family.
Most of the strong people here only obey the orders of the Lion King.
As a result, the city of Brussels, which had been peaceful for a long time, began to show traces of fighting.
In dark alleys, on the streets, on rooftops, under the sky, and even in the Ruhr River...
From time to time there would be unrest caused by fighting, but under the strong suppression of the Flower Leader, it would be quelled quickly.
This situation lasted for three days, during which time a fourth-level war even broke out.
He was a fourth-level natural disaster who came to apply for the job, but he came too late and didn't make it, and he was already holding back his anger.
In addition, his identity was sensitive and he couldn't stand being in the light, so when faced with the patrol, he became completely annoyed with just a few words.
Then, they started a fierce fight, injuring many of the black-clad swordsmen.
He still had some rationality. He only hurt people but did not kill them. But even so, he had stirred up a hornet's nest.
First, three wizard towers were activated, and the magical light covered half of the city, forcing him to lose his foothold in the city and flee as quickly as possible.
But he was facing the siege of three natural disasters.
The turmoil caused by the fighting and struggling could be felt even more than ten miles away.
In the end, he was dragged back like a dead dog, with blood dripping wherever he passed.
This scene has made countless people give up their inner impulses.
However, by this time, the matter had become completely out of hand, and everyone could see that the Lord's Mansion was obviously searching for someone.
Or someone!
Until this moment, the familiar script returned, and various versions of the news were spreading wildly in private.
Some say that the Raymond family lost some precious treasures, which is why the Flower Territory has been able to survive to this day.
Some people also said that Klein Raymond was assassinated!
After all, there are still some people who don't want to see the flowers being passed on to others.
Luo Yi was too strong and killed many people, but Klein had no power to resist!
If he died, Flower Territory would inevitably fall into turmoil, just like it is now.
Of course, some people also say that Countess Raymond was assassinated.
Only if the lady was hurt would the earl be so furious and make such a big fuss.
But all of this was completely suppressed after another piece of news came out.
Count Roy Raymond, a Knight Templar, the King of Lions, the lord of the revival of the Flower Territory, the man who created the prosperity of this territory, was poisoned and seriously injured, and his life or death is unknown!
The Lord's Mansion is now hunting down those who poisoned the people.
When this news first came out, many people still couldn't believe it. After all, the physique of a fourth-level natural disaster expert had reached an inhuman level.
What's more, Luo Yixiu uses the sacred fire fighting spirit, which has the best healing effect.
How could such a small toxin cause any harm?
This is also the reason why many people didn't think about Loy. They would rather believe that Klein or Lilia was assassinated.
However, when the name of 'Tears of Rees' spread, everyone fell silent again.
It's impossible with other poisons, but this 'King of Poisons' is another matter.
At this moment, the flower collar showed a polarized situation - calm on the surface and turbulent waves in secret, making the atmosphere of the whole city a little tense, just like a storm is about to come.
At this moment, the Lord's Mansion no longer hid its intentions and announced it openly.
Yes, someone did poison her, and it was indeed the Tears of Reese.
But Earl Roy is not in danger of his life, he is just temporarily unable to show up.
The Lord's Mansion even called on all the people to carefully observe their surroundings and report any abnormal people directly to the Lord's Mansion.
After confirmation, rewards will be given according to the size of the contribution.
As soon as this order was issued, the cohesion of the Flower Territory was revealed, and countless people went to the lord's mansion to report.
Of course, a large part of these people are innocent, and some even have ulterior motives and seek personal revenge.
But there were also many spies who were hiding very deeply and were caught.
They thought they could change their appearance and identity and hide among ordinary people without being discovered.
But they could hide it from the police and the gangs, but they couldn't hide it from their neighbors who lived with them day and night.
This is how the assassins who poisoned the food were caught. They were a group of three people in total.
A nightmare wizard, with weak frontal combat capabilities, but good at manipulating people's hearts and confusing their minds.
A fourth-level shadow assassin, proficient in hiding, shadow jumping, and killing people invisibly. He is also the main operative.
The last person is a thief who is good at breaking into houses, picking locks, disguising himself and imitating others, and has a unique skill in disguise and makeup.
There is magic in this world that can change one's appearance, but magic always has fluctuations. However, his disguise and makeup can turn you into another person without any flaws.
After the three of them successfully poisoned the family, they directly replaced the three members of the family, hoping to get away with it, avoid the most dangerous moment, and then find a way to leave.
It’s a pity that after being reported, he was surrounded by a luxurious lineup.
The thief and the nightmare wizard were caught on the spot. The shadow assassin wanted to give them a quick death, but was stopped by the faceless killer Ulysses.
Oliveira attacked without any scruples, with lightning speed and maximum speed, not giving him a chance to breathe.
However, it is a fourth-level natural disaster after all. Its determination to hide in crowded places also makes the flowers leader cautious.
They were afraid that one careless move would cause too much damage and result in too many casualties.
But just when the shadow assassin was feeling proud, a ball of holy fire fell on him, and thus, the powerful fourth-level assassin was burned to death.
When the thief and the nightmare wizard saw this scene, especially when they saw the person who came, they were so scared that they no longer hid anything.
They came from the Kingdom of Sardinia and served under the orders of Her Majesty the Queen.
It was also at this moment that Luo Yi finally lost all his hope.
He knew that the Kingdom of Sardinia and the Bonaparte Empire had taken action, but he didn't know whether the Slavic Empire was involved?
This was what he thought at the time, but within a day, he knew that the Slavic Empire would not miss such a good opportunity.
Because, on this day, in the Duchy of Normandy, the Marquis of Castro, the Marquis of McKinley and the Marquis of Carlisle formally submitted a declaration of war to the Lord of Flowers.
They launched a war of nobles!
As for the reasons, they are all ready-made. The Carlisle family never fought back then. This time, having seized the opportunity, they will definitely try again.
But almost everyone knows that they are just puppets in the front and an excuse.
The real bosses are the three empires standing behind the three noble families. They want to divide up the Flower Territory.
In such an era, people really feel that the situation is changing rapidly and they are overwhelmed.
A few days ago, an inspection team was organized to seek guidance on the development of the magic energy industry, and there were also trade exchanges. It was very lively.
But now, he has turned his back on me.
