Tonight is a peaceful night. The miserable screams of the Holmer clan people being slaughtered thus further boomed into the ears. The sounds have gone a long way. Even Jenne and Keane, who were inside the castle, could hear them.
"What's that?"
Keane ran in her nightgown, while Jenne came out with unraveling hair. The two brothers curiously walked towards the castle gate. As for the old servant who was very careful, Lambert, he had already run to the castle gate.
“On the orders of the Madam, no one is allowed to leave the castle at night. ”
The two castle guards standing at the gate formed a cross with their spears, forbidding entry, as they spoke coldly to Lambert.
"What the hell is going on? You two, move! ”Keane snapped at them.
Seeing Keane and Jenne coming, the two castle guards exchanged glances. Everyone in the castle knew that Keane was the governor's successor, but at the same time, Lady Wade would not easily give up her power.
"Young master Keane, Miss Jenne. We are very sorry, but the Madam has ordered that no one leave the castle at night. Please come back and rest. "The higher of the two guards spoke.
Keane's face turned cold. "Get out of my way. ”
The higher guard did not move. He just pleads sadly, “Young master Keane, please don't make things difficult for us. If you force us to let you through, you will kill us. We are completely unable to break the Madam's orders. ”
Keane was boiling with anger.
At his side, Jenne said to him, “Enough, Keane. Don't make things difficult for them. They are in a very sad situation. ”
"Thank you, Miss Jenne! Thank you, Miss Jenne! ”The two guards hurriedly said. In their hearts, they felt very grateful to Jenne. Jenne is as beautiful as a holy angel, and she has a friendly soul as well.
Jenne asked gently, “Can I ask, what is really going on outside? I heard screaming. It seems like there is some sort of disaster in the eastern district of the city. ”
The higher guard said in a low voice, "Miss Jenne, not too long ago, Madam led a group of people out of the castle, and quite a number of city guards passed by her as well. ”
"Auntie? City guards? ”Jenne and Keane are equally confused.
Why did Madame Wade lead such a large group of city guards so late at night?
"Miss, young master. Let's sit down and rest for now. "Lambert pointed to a stone bench nearby. Jenne and Keane nodded, then walked over, the three of them sat down.
Jenne, Keane, and Lambert were very irritated.
Madame Wade's existence was like having a fish bone stuck in their throat, causing them great suffering.
"The damn woman wanted to use me not to grow old as an excuse to try and force me to wait two years. Hrmphs. Two years . In those two years, I might have been killed by him a long time ago. "Keane cursed in a low voice.
Jenne nodded as well.
The two brothers knew very well that they could not allow Madame Wade to continue acting as he pleased.
“Young lady, young master. Senior Madame has been leading Cerre for a long time. The city guards and the castle guards all obeyed his orders. The prestige of the senior madam was at a very high level. If young master Keane cannot become governor, it will be very difficult for us to fight against him. After all ... there are too few people here who wholeheartedly support us. ”Lambert is very resigned.
Jenne, Keane, and Lambert were all silent.
Inside Cerre, there were very few people supporting them. Perhaps even if there were people supporting them, they would not dare to do so openly. In the prefectural city of Cerre, Madame Wade was like a local tyrant.
"Whoosh's. ”
The wind started blowing.
"Who is that ?!" The two gate guards carefully raised their heads, and saw a man wearing black warrior clothes and wearing a thick black sword on his back descending from the air.
"I . "Linley looked back at the guard.
Instantly, the two guards no longer dared to speak. They had heard about how powerful Linley was. At this level of guard power, they couldn't even dream of stopping Linley.
“Sister Ley. "Jenne and Keane stand up.
Linley turned to look at them.
Summer has just begun, and the temperature at night is still quite high. Keane and Jenne were just wearing simple nightgowns, and their hair was all unraveled.
"Sister Ley, what's really going on outside? Why so noisy? "Keane looked at Linley and asked.
Linley said casually, "Mrs Wade led a group of city guards to the Holmer clan and launched a search and seizure operation. Tell me, how is it not noisy? ”
"Search and seizure?" Jenne and Keane were stunned.
"Klan Holmer?" Lambert was also very surprised.
Linley leisurely sat at the end of the long bench. Laughing, he said, “Wait and rest a while here. Soon, you will hear good news. ”
"Good news? Could it be that he intended to give us the money confiscated from it? ”Keane curses slowly.
"EXPLOSION!"
Right at this moment, a rumbling explosion could be heard from the east. The sound of the explosion was extremely noisy, sounding like several dozen lightning bolts were exploding at once. This explosion probably woke up at least half of the residents of Cerre City.
"What's that?" Jenne, Keane, and Lambert jumped in shock.
The guards nearby, as well as the castle maids and maids all stared eastward as well, and when they did, they saw that flames were soaring into the sky from the east.
"How could there be such a great hell? Where did the explosion come from? "Linley seemed to be wondering towards the east as well.
Everyone in the castle was confused. They were all quietly waiting for the city guards to return, as was Madam Wade. Perhaps they will know what caused the great hell in the east, or the great explosion.
After a while…
A choir of footsteps rang out outside the castle, followed by countless screams. Immediately after this shout was a series of panicked knocking sounds from the gate that came as fast as rain fell in a storm.
"Bombs!" "Bombs!" "Bombs!" "Bombs!"
The sound of the knocking panicked and rang.
The two gatekeepers did not dare to hesitate. They immediately opened the gates of the castle, as Linley, Lambert, Jenne, and Keane watched.
As soon as the door of the castle was opened, they saw that in front of the castle there were a large number of knights as well as war heroes. Their leader was a golden-haired man holding a spear.
"Surge!" The golden-haired man roared to the two gate guards.
But after seeing Keane and Jenne, the golden-haired man started, then immediately said respectfully, “Deputy Commander Ritter [Li'te] from the city guards saluted Miss Jenne and young master Keane. ”
Vice Commander Ritter could be considered the second highest ranked person in the city guards. Not long ago, he took part in the welcoming banquet. Naturally, he recognized Jenne and Keane.
"Mr . Ritters. What happened until you all panicked? ”Keane speaks.
Ritter immediately fell to one knee. With sadness he said, “Young master Keane. Forgive me for being useless in my protective responsibilities. Mrs Wade and her two brothers were killed in the blast. ”
"Oh ..... ah !?"
Keane's eyes immediately bulged out, and Jenne and Lambert were also greatly shocked. Disbelief painted the faces of all the guards nearby as well.
Mrs Wade has passed away.
Just when Keane and Jenne are worried about her, Mrs Wade and her two brothers suddenly die. His death only filled Jenne and Keane's hearts with joy.
Jenne and Keane glanced at each other, their eyes filled with wild joy.
“What really happened? Explain it clearly. ”Keane adopts the attitude and posture of a superior who teaches subordinates.
The golden-haired Ritter immediately replied, "Your subordinates led several hundred city guards, under Madame's command, to launch a search and capture operation for Holmer's house. ”
"After we had completed the search and seizure operation, Madam Countess ordered that all the treasures of the Holmer clan be placed in the main hall, then ordered all of us soldiers to leave, she said, leaving only him and his two brothers in that hall. ”
Hearing this, Keane could not help but secretly curse, "Women*****that's really shameless. ”
Ritter continued, “We were stationed outside capturing the fleeing members of the Holmer clan, but who would have thought that suddenly, the residence of the Holmer clan would catch fire. Once that happened, everyone was charged to save the Madam State. ”
"But we didn't even go inside before we heard that terrible explosion. Half the building suddenly exploded and was destroyed. ”
Ritter said dejectedly, “By the time we reached Madam Countess and the other two, we only found their bodies, which had already been shattered apart by the explosion. All three of them are dead. ”
"Good . Order people to bring my aunt's body here, then come back and rest. "Keane ordered right away.
"Yes sir . ”Ritter immediately issue order.
Everyone understood that with Madam Wade's death, all the authorities in Cerre prefecture city were now in the hands of this fourteen-year-old boy.
Everyone watched as Ritter's troops carried the charred remains of burnt corpses inside.
Only now did Keane and Jenne truly believe. That loathsome Madame Wade has really died. From today onwards, their lives are no longer lived in fear.
“Sister Ley. “Jenne suddenly woke up. He turned to look at Linley. "Thank you . ”
Lambert just now understood too. Looking at Linley, he said with gratitude, "Mr. Ley, the good news you want us to hear is really good news. It was the best kind of news, the news we had saved. ”
"What are you talking about?"
Keane flabbergasted. “What do you mean by muttering about good news and good news? OH !!! ”
Finally, Keane understood as well.
"Sister Ley, just now, you entered from outside the castle?" Keane asked slowly.
"Yes. "Linley nodded.
"Then you ..." A faint smile appeared on Keane's face.
Linley started to chuckle as well. “Looking at how nervous and restless you all are, I help you overcome the root of your problem. All right, it's time to sleep and sleep well, so you have the energy to take over this prefectural city government. ”
As he spoke, Linley turned around and headed to his own residence.
Lambert, Jenne, and Keane were all amazed. Staring at each other in shock and joy, they really wanted to shout happily. But of course, Madam Wade's corpse was next to theirs. It is not appropriate for them to celebrate like that.
"Boss. Done already? ”Bebe was lying on the ground, his eyelids drooping sleepily.
Linley laughed. "Yes. All done . ”
To the current Linley, someone like Madame Wade was not even qualified to be considered an 'opponent'. The small scheme that Mrs Wade could create was nothing more than a joke to Linley.
Try any trick you want. I'll instantly kill you and settle this matter for good.
"Why was there an explosion?" Bebe asked curiously.
"How do I know?" Linley shook his head. "All I did was kill Madame Wade and her two brothers, then use fire-style magic to burn down the palace. After that ... I just rushed back alone. Who would have thought that once I returned to the manor, there would be such an explosion? ”
What Linley did not realize was that one of Holmer's experimental laboratories was located in the building. Many strange and strange chemicals and experimental materials were stored in the room. When Linley burned the building, he also involuntarily burned some special materials, resulting in a huge explosion.
"You don't know?" Bebe surprised. "Oh. Then let's go to sleep. ”
"Yes. Sleep time. ”
Linley casually went up to his bed, then went to sleep.
Lady Wade and her siblings suddenly died, just like that, in one night. This news shook the prefectural city of Cerre like an earthquake. And, for Jenne and Keane, this happy news made them so happy that they couldn't sleep at all.
But to Linley, it was nothing more than a trivial matter.
Right now, the house of the Holmer clan continued to light up cheerfully until nightfall. Many local city guards frantically tried to put out the fire ….
