Chapter eighty-eight: The Bishop and the Beauty

The grand duke originally held a dinner to eliminate the traitor, but unexpectedly uncovered a terrifying evil mage and a deeper conspiracy. His personal magician Astimus is nowhere to be found, and his magic is so similar to his that the Grand Duke has vaguely guessed who he is. However, he will not admit it in front of the members of the Illuminati and his officials no matter what.

He really couldn't understand why he would still turn to the Grand Duke of Butani and do something harmful to himself if he treated Astimus so well. So in his heart, he could only think that Astimus wanted to follow someone stronger, and the person he chose was the Grand Duke of Brittany, which made him both jealous and resentful.

General von Herl woke up from despair, only to suddenly realize that the current situation could definitely be exploited. He is not a fool. If it weren't for Bishop Abraham's ambiguous targeting of Brittany, he would have appeared disheartened and pretended to resign from his military position in order to blackmail the Grand Duke into seeking greater power.

But now that we have this great opportunity, how can we miss it? So General von Hel put on a loyal look, not caring at all about the Grand Duke's suspicion of him. He took the initiative to let go of the misunderstanding that embarrassed the Grand Duke, and with a righteous expression, he raised his arms and angrily rebuked the wolfish ambitions of Grand Duke Butani.

Leading internal disputes to the outside is always the only way to transfer internal contradictions, set aside internal disputes, and shirk leadership responsibilities. Bishop Abraham's strongly provocative language made the frightened nobles become angry and embarrassed after waking up, and the aristocratic officials who were closely related to the nobles and officials who were killed by corpse worms and toxins became even more furious.

And General von Hel and Mel Gibson really began to suspect that the tense conflict between the two sides and the bloody incident that occurred between the two families were all conspiracies of the Grand Duke of Brittany. In this case, the internal power struggle must be put aside first. Choose consistent external communication. After all, no matter how scheming they are, they don't want the duchy to collapse.

A dinner party evolved into a mobilization for the war in the Duchy of Brittany against this backdrop. Generals swore allegiance one after another, intending to punish Butani's ambitions with bloody lessons; The nobles no longer opposed sending troops, and the Norman Duchy witnessed a rare unity in decades.

Under the guidance of General von Herr's influence and clever leverage, the Norman Duchy united as one and the resolution to expel the Butani army by force was informally determined at the dinner party.

The female assassin Cleopatra, who contributed to this great achievement, has not been forgotten. The Grand Duke's army is searching the entire city, and the entire Baptiste has entered a state of first level martial law. An intent to assassinate Grand Duke and General von Herl. The bloody killer who harmed the Knights Templar, killed President Gibson and many other nobles, any of these charges could lead her to the gallows.

And Cardinal Abraham also issued a secret decree to the Order of the Holy Knights: shoot to death!

The bishop knows that this girl is indeed an important member of the Oberstein family. Since she has already turned her face, we cannot let her leave Baptiste alive.

But as an assassin. Even if she is seriously injured, it is still easy for her to hide her tracks in the city, not to mention that she is proficient in illusions.

Cleo escaped from the hall and was brushed by General von Herl's sharp sword, cutting off a piece of his flesh. This was originally a minor injury, but the sword carried General von Herr's golden aura, which shook her internal organs. The injury worsened.
