The Original Vampire
Chapter 241: Seize Power (Part 1)
The dim candlelight and the open coffin made the atmosphere in the camp look a little gloomy.
Colin, Vera, and Bachelor Dawn surrounded the coffin with solemn expressions.
"This is really not my father's body." Vera said affirmatively, "there is no arcane wave at all, it's just an ordinary stone sculpture. If it's a body that was petrified by a forbidden curse, this would not happen."
Colin slapped the lid of the coffin heavily and said angrily: "It must be a ghost from the Morrison family!"
Vera frowned, wondering: "But why would the Morrison family do this? What use does stealing his father's body do for them?"
Colin hesitated, but still did not tell what he had seen in the underground cave of the bell tower of Fengdie Castle.
After all, that involved his biggest secret, even if it was the person next to the pillow, Colin was unwilling to tell it frankly.
At least, not yet.
"I suspect that the Morrison family has a secret connection with the Nelson Knights and others." Bachelor Dawn said surprisingly.
"Huh?" Colin was slightly startled, and asked quickly, "Why do you say that?"
Bachelor Dawn said unhurriedly: "My lord, have you noticed that when Knight Nelson said that he wanted to pay homage to the Duke's remains, it was after you gave your suggestion to withdraw troops and return to Winter City.
As if he had already known that as long as he opened the coffin, he would be able to see a replaced body, so that we could not completely confirm the fact that Lord Duke was dead.
In this way, Knight Nelson and others would have reason to reject the suggestion of a Duke's heir like Miss Vera. "
Colin nodded solemnly, and found that Bachelor Dawn's statement was indeed quite reasonable.
The behavior of Knight Nelson and others, in retrospect, indeed seemed to have known in advance that the coffin contained a fake corpse.
"So, the Morrison family, and the Nelson Knights, why would they do this?"
Hearing Colin's question, Bachelor Dawn rubbed his chin for a moment before replied:
"I think they have two motivations for doing this.
First, it was the surrender of the Uman family that made the Nelson Knights full of confidence, and this made him want to fight the dwarf. If you think about it this way, I'm afraid Earl Uman also participated in this conspiracy. "
Hearing this, Colin nodded involuntarily, because he thought of Earl Uman's behavior when he saw the coffin. His pretentious appearance really seemed to have known in advance that the Duke's body was a fake.
"Second..." Bachelor Dawn continued, "If Knight Nelson and Earl Uman really defeat the dwarves together, then they will become the true heroes of the Northern Territory.
At that time, maybe they should be consulted on the ownership of the Duke of the North.
It is foreseeable that they should recommend Master Joyce to become the Lord of the North.
After all, a child like Joyce is easier to control, unlike Miss Vera, who has her own opinions and is married to a powerful lord..."
"Haha." Colin laughed suddenly, not knowing whether it was because of the last little **** that Bachelor Dawn shot, or because he was laughing at Nelson Knight and the others overwhelmingly.
I have to say that Bachelor of Dawn has given a very good analytical perspective.
Originally, Colin thought that the Morrison family stole the Duke's body on his own, and wanted to conduct some secret research.
But now, he felt that perhaps the other party's purpose might not be so simple, and that behind this conspiracy, there is probably not only the Morrison family.
At least Earl Uman had a high probability of participating. This guy had an antagonism with Colin, and he certainly didn't want to watch Vera succeed in taking the position of Duke of the North.
Therefore, he will definitely try to prevent the Golden Lion Army from falling into Vera's control.
"Earl Morrison is so ambitious! Humph! Then he won't want to marry cousin Nina!"
Seeing Vera's bulging appearance, Colin suddenly became happy.
Unexpectedly, this is what she was thinking about now, and the brain circuit is really weird and cute.
Touching Vera's head, Colin turned his head and glanced at Bachelor Dawn again. Seeing that he was still in a calm and calm manner, he asked:
"Bachelor Dawn, when you persuaded me to come here, didn't you think about the situation that Knight Nelson would not obey orders?"
"Of course I thought of it." Bachelor Dawn looked confident, "I did have a backup plan."
"Oh? Please speak." Colin looked happy and asked quickly.
Bachelor Dawn looked at Colin, and said leisurely: "Master Viscount, the backup plan I'm talking about actually depends on one person. I think you should have noticed who he is."
When Colin rolled his eyes, he immediately thought of the Cambenin knight who had remained silent among the three senior commanders of the Golden Lion Legion.
Before leaving, Colin had an eye contact with the other party.
Obviously, the Cambenin knight had something to tell Colin.
"You are talking about the Cavaliers."
"That's right!" Bachelor Dawn snapped his fingers and explained, "In fact, when the Lord Duke appoints the commander of the Golden Lion Army, he kept a mind.
You should also see that the Cambenin Cavaliers are obviously wrong with the Nelson Knights and Louis Knights. No, it's not just the wrong way.
In fact, the Cambenin Knights and the Nelson Knights have hatred. Those are old things, but the Lord Duke just forced the Cambenin Knights into the Golden Lion Army led by the Nelson Knights and became his deputy. One is that they don't want the senior members of the Golden Lion Corps to become monolithic.
In this way, the Cambenin Knight became an eye that could not be bought, monitoring Knight Nelson for Lord Duke.
And once the Nelson Knight has a problem, then..."
Colin took the conversation decisively: "Then Camberin Knight is the candidate for the legion commander!"
Bachelor Dawn slowly nodded his head, smiled with white teeth, and looked a little hideous in the dim candlelight.
Upon hearing this, Vera seemed to react, her eyes widened in surprise, and she deliberately lowered her voice and said, "Do you...you want to kill Knight Nelson?"
Colin's eyes flickered, and he comforted: "Knight Nelson may not have to be killed, as long as he takes back the command of the Golden Lion Legion from him, as for Earl Uman, hehe, that must be killed!"
"But...but, isn't Earl Uman surrendered?" Vera obviously still has illusions about Earl Uman and even Knight Nelson. "Can't we just let Earl Uman and Knight Nelson fight the dwarves? If they If you win, won't the Northern Rebellion be completely put down?"
Colin shook his head firmly: "You are too naive. Even if they can defeat the dwarves, after the victory, the first thing to be solved is the Angley family, and of course you, so that they can help Joyce. The upper position clears obstacles.
What's more, the Golden Lion Legion is the last bargaining chip of the Saint Hild family, why should it be handed over to others and become their bet on the table?
If this bet was lost, then Wintery City would definitely not be able to hold it. At that time, the Lord of the North would really have to change to a new surname.
In this situation, only leading the army to withdraw to Wintertime is the safest choice. We cannot allow Knight Nelson to bring the Golden Lion Legion into the abyss for his own benefit. "
Vera nodded silently, but she still couldn't bear it: "What about Earl Uman? Since he has already abandoned the secret, there is no need to kill him, right?"
Colin had to speak again: "Do you remember when I ran away from home alone and then met you in Jinghu Camp?"
"Of course I remember." Vera nodded, wondering why Colin mentioned these things at this time.
"Do you know why I ran away from home alone?"
"Why?"
Colin's face was gloomy, and he said cruelly: "Because I was assassinated in the bedroom of my castle! Assassination by the knights of the Anglia family!"
"What?" Vera was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Who is responsible for that?"
"Earl Uman~www.readwn.com~ Colin blurted out, "I only learned later that my father died in the front line, so if I am also unfortunately killed, then the title of the Anglia family will fall to my sister. Caitlin’s head, and Caitlin..."
"Married to Varla Uman!" Vera suddenly realized, and immediately said with hatred, "Earl Uman dared to assassinate a nobleman! What a shame to the knight! It's time to kill!"
"It really should be killed!" Colin regained his smile, "So, we must not let the conspiracy of the Earl Uman and the Nelson Knight succeed, even if we take the most extreme means!"
"Yeah." Vera nodded heavily, no longer feeling the psychological burden of killing an ally.
When Bachelor Dawn saw that the young couple finally reached an agreement, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly said:
"Master Viscount, it is not easy to seize the command of the Golden Lion from the Nelson Knights. We still need to consider a long-term plan."
Colin smiled confidently:
"Then you don't have to worry, I already have a solution."
