264.The scourge of wolfsbane - additional update for the brothers "Huo Zheng is very good" [14/20] (page 2/2)
“Well, Corando, an ambitious criminal, a thug who wants to be the king of criminals, a stubborn violent person who is unwilling to succumb to Wolfsbane's rules..
A bloodthirsty wolf that is difficult to control. The news from afar foretells your death, making me, an old and dim elder in your eyes, taste the taste of 'sadness' again..”
Old Edward sneered and took off his cobbler's gloves, his gloomy face showing no sadness at all..
Although the death of his heir will make him weak, for an ancient man who has entered the golden rank as early as nine hundred years ago, as one of the strong men who stand at the top of the power of this continent, he is so weak. There are many ways to make it up.
Destiny is always very generous to the strong.
The death of the leader of the uncontrolled Gray Claw clan means that this hated and violent faction will disappear into thin air and become an inconspicuous blip in the ancient history of the Wolfsbane clan..
This good news made old Edward's lips turn up slightly, and he even rarely hummed a rather ancient ballad..
He walked briskly to the study of his large villa located in the inner ring of the foggy city, took out a bottle of 400-year-old moonshine wine from his beloved wine cabinet, pulled out the cork and poured himself a small glass..
Tonight is a memorable moment, worth a drink.
But just as old Edward was putting the good wine back into the wine cabinet, he suddenly looked back at the window of the study. Under the dark night, there was a strange rhythm of flying black rose petals, which represented an "uninvited guest" coming to visit at this time..
“snort.”
Being in a good mood, Grand Duke Wolfsbane made an impatient snort from his nostrils..
But as an ancient man, he could not turn away guests, so he touched his well-groomed beard, stepped forward and opened the window with his beloved black wolf cane..
Amidst the rich fragrance of roses, Lord Paliano, with blond hair like a lion, showed his slender figure in old Edward's study..
This romantic knight did not wear heavy armor, but wore the traditional costume of Greene Island. The upper body was a long-sleeved vest, and the lower body was decorated with something that made old Edward a little bit unbearable..
To put it simply, the Palano Knight will be wearing a skirt but not women’s clothing! Emphasize it once! This is the traditional costume of the Isa people of Greene Island.
I don’t know why our ancestors used men’s skirts as a tradition, but history is always unreasonable in this regard..
“Greetings to you, Rosenkavalier.”
Old Edward politely leaned on his cane and said to the golden knight who was visiting him late at night.：
“You should meet with the sun-like King Louis at Dunwich Palace to discuss the response to the Black Disaster. What wind brought you to me?？”
“Do I need a reason to go back to my own home?？”
The romantic Palano Knight was obviously in a bad mood tonight, he said in a stiff tone：
“Your villa happened to be my fief when I was still alive. Although my favorite castle has been razed over time, this land still remembers its owner.！”
This rare indifferent response made old Edward blink his eyes, and he became rude, picked up the wine glass, and said：
“So, what are you doing here?？”
“The Gray Claw faction under the Wolfsbane clan did something wrong.！”
Palano was too lazy to argue with old Eduardo. As he once declared, the Knight of the Rose was always unwilling to pay too much attention to ugly things that he did not recognize..
And the ancient man in front of him is not in line with the aesthetics of the Palano Knights from any aspect..
He said in a questioning tone：
“You, Lord Wolfsbane Grand Duke Edward, do you know that the faction leader you personally appointed colluded with the Jackals in Transia and tried to launch a despicable sneak attack on the Blood Vulture Clan that had just re-established its power?？”
“I don't know, Your Excellency..”
Old Edward rolled his eyes and replied rudely.：
“I'm old, my eyes are no longer sharp and my ears are no longer sensitive.
My prestige is no longer what it used to be. It is difficult for me to control the newcomers in the family who are eager to try and get ready. They are increasingly looking down on me as the old patriarch..
But isn't this the cruel thing forged by fate?？
The old man will always be marginalized, and even within the Wolfsbane clan that you denounce as unruly, the Gray Claw faction is the most radical group.！
In order to prevent their wild trip from causing big trouble in the Fog City, I specially sent them to Transia to assist in the defense of the Black Disaster..
That place is thousands of miles away from here, how could I possibly completely control my disobedient heir?？
And in terms of the century-old feud between Wolfsbane and Blood Vulture, to be honest, I don’t think my heir did anything wrong. This is how vampire clans get along with each other, Mr. Palano.
It's not your first day as a vampire？
Why all the fuss？”
“I know our dark nature, but what about the fact that your servant gave the defense map of the Cato region to the Gnoll Warlord?？”
Palano scolded.
This sentence shocked old Edward, and then he cursed..
Damn it！
Korando crossed the line！
Collaborating with the gnolls to attack the blood vultures can barely be said to be irrational caused by family hatred, but handing over the defense information of an entire area to the gnolls is another concept..
No wonder the first lord of the Blood Alliance Knights was so angry and came to scold him so shamelessly..
“Then he deserves to die! Tonight, this glass of wine has been given another reminder of punishment..”
Old Edward said with an indifferent expression.：
“It seems that I have neglected the education of my children. I apologize to you, Mr. Palano, but here is good news that may calm your anger..
Just now, I sensed Korando's eternal silence from the vibration of blood in the distance..
The heinous traitor is dead！
Perhaps my old friend Mrs. Tracey took action to give him a decent ending, which prevented things from getting worse..”
“You and I both know that Corando's death won't solve anything.！”
Palano shook his head. He could feel that Old Edward was deliberately changing the subject. This knight who pursued all beauty was disgusted with this behavior, and he said sharply：
“Your Wolfsbane clan has really big problems. You must give me an explanation, right here! Make a pledge to change or else.”
“Otherwise what？”
Old Edward turned back and looked at the golden knight Palano with a sinister look..
he said：
“What kind of cruel threat do you want to make on Wolfsbane's territory? You know, it goes against the old rules, although we don't follow those rules either.
but palano knight！
I hope you recognize your identity. You are just the first lord of the Blood Alliance Knights. You are not qualified to ask an archduke to make any guarantee or explanation to you..
Even if you were once the prince of this country, that is in the past, you are now a guest! And I, I am the master here！
Therefore, please observe the manners expected of guests..”
“Indeed, Palano is not qualified to ask the noble ancient to make a promise, so in order to make tonight's question conform to the ancient tradition, I had to put aside the defense arrangements in the Dark Mountains and come over thousands of miles away in person. However, I The best reward I can get from this journey is an answer I don't care about..”
The moment Edward's sarcasm fell, a cold voice that made Lord Wolfsbane's hair stand on end sounded from outside his study..
As the door was pushed open from the outside, Lord Paying, dressed in blood-colored ceremonial clothes, strolled in with his hands behind his back..
He is not like a guest, but like the owner of this place.
Behind the Lord, the third lord, Ms. Yvette, is holding the scarlet holy spear "Eternal Silence" and carrying an exquisite cross made of blood stone..
Seeing the scarlet holy spear that symbolized the Midnight Arbitration and the cross instrument that had sent away the Blood Terror Patriarch being brought into the Wolfsbane territory of Greeny Island by Lord Paying, Old Edward's pupils shrank to the extreme..
he knows.
He's in big trouble.
