Chapter 104 The Council of Nobles
Andy didn't stay outside the city hall for a long time. With Benedictus around, basically it wouldn't be a big problem.Speaking of which, these workers really have to thank their archbishop, otherwise they would have been arrested and tried.At that time, not to mention the wages, it may really even kill the life.

Andy went back to the hotel and went to see Doyle first.There is nothing serious about his body, but the torment over the past few days has made his body a lot thinner.

Doyle was in his room, eating and drinking, and Lyra kept his eyes on him.

"You can eat it, it seems that you have no problem!" Andy walked in and said with a smile.

Doyle raised his head, with bread crumbs still on the corner of his mouth, he grinned when he saw Andy, and said, "Thank you this time, otherwise I will give up my life!"

Andy smiled, patted his shoulder and motioned for him to continue eating.Seeing that he was fine, he turned and went back to his room.

The Brotherhood of Masonry has clashed with the nobles of Stormwind, and while it's still early days, there is already a growing trend.

Andy sat in the room, touching his chin, thinking about today's events.He didn't know what the concept of nobility in Stormwind City was and what scope it was, but it was obvious that Lothar must be considered a noble class.Then why didn't he take care of it? Even if he was sick in bed, he couldn't take care of the regent Bolvar he appointed?He is the Grand Duke!
But what he didn't know was that at this moment, Bolvar was not yet a duke. Although he was also an aristocrat, what was the use of that? He had no money in his hands!
The next morning, Andy went to the palace again to visit Lothar who was lying on the bed.This time, the guards guarding the gate did not stop them. On the contrary, a person was assigned to lead the way in front. The gap between the front and the back was so large that Andy was amazed.

When I came to the door of Lothar, I was stopped by a man dressed as a priest, saying that he was performing a spell on Lothar.Andy waited at the door for a while, and a light flashed in the room.

A few seconds later, the door was opened, and several priests came out with tired faces, and one of them didn't even have the strength to raise his hand.Andy was shocked in his heart, did Lothar's condition require several priests to perform spells at the same time? It won't take long before he can't stand it anymore!

Andy walked into the house, and Benedictus was also there. He glanced at Andy with a touch of sadness in his eyes.

Andy greeted Lothar, looking at the former comrade-in-arms in front of him, he couldn't help sighing.Lothar's face was already full of old age, wrinkles increased sharply, hair had begun to gray, and the look of a strong man was no longer in his eyes.

Seeing Lothar like this, Andy felt as if a stone was suddenly blocked in his heart, and he felt uncomfortable all over.Lothar who had cast the spell gradually fell asleep, his breathing was fairly steady, but Andy knew that this could not delay his departure!

A solution must be found, even the person who poisoned it must be found!

Benedictus pulled Andy, and the two walked out quietly. "Lothar's condition is urgent and there is no way to start, but the current situation in Stormwind City is very worrying." Benedictus said with a sigh.

Andy glanced at him with a smile, and said, "Supposedly you are all powerful figures in Stormwind City and even the Stormwind Kingdom, isn't it easy to solve this?"

"Me?" Benedictus laughed, "I'm just a priest, so I can't be considered a powerful figure."

"What about Prince Regent Bolvar? He is both a noble and a person in power. Why don't you go find him?" Andy said again.

"He, he can't!" Benedictus had a trace of worry in his eyes, "Bolvar is the regent, but his foundation is in the military, not the political circle. What the political circle needs is not how good you are at fighting. , or how well you can govern this country, but you have to be rich!"

Andy stared, opened his mouth, and looked at Benedictus in disbelief. He didn't expect the archbishop to say such a thing.

"Perhaps when Lothar was here, he could still suppress them, but now... alas..." Benedictas sighed, full of worries about the future of Stormwind City.

Andy was also speechless, his open mouth moved but nothing came out.After a long silence, Andy said: "According to what you said, could it be those people who poisoned Lothar?"

Benedictus frowned, and said: "You mean those nobles? Now it seems that it is not completely impossible, but it is very unlikely, they cannot come into contact with this kind of thing. And Stormwind City has just been rebuilt, It is really inappropriate to have a large-scale internal struggle."

Andy's eyes flashed, those so-called nobles definitely had motives, but this can only be guesswork.

"In any case, Bovar needs to have a detailed understanding of what happened yesterday. I'm going to find him. Are you coming?" Benedictas said with a smile.

Andy nodded, since he had nothing to do anyway, he went to talk to Bovar to learn about those so-called nobles, which might help him find the murderer.

Benedictas and Andy walked to Bolvar's office, the hall where Andy had been interviewed.There is an archbishop accompanying him, and he still enters from a side door, so there is no need for guards to communicate.

But there was no figure of Bolvar in the hall, only the two rows of guards, standing on both sides like sculptures.

"Where is the Regent?" Benedictus asked a guard.

"Count Katrana sent someone to invite the regent away." The guard saluted Benedictus and said.

Andy looked at Benedictus and asked in bewilderment, "Countess?" In his impression, these titles were not awarded to women.

Benedictus's eyes flashed with disdain, and he said softly: "That Countess Katrana is an outstanding contributor to Stormwind City. She spent a lot of money when rebuilding Stormwind City."

Andy's heart moved. Although he didn't notice the look in Benedictus' eyes, there was a hint of disdain in his tone.What do you mean by spending a lot of money?
"Where have they gone?" Benedictus asked again.

"In the council hall," replied the soldier.

Benedictus noticed Andy's puzzled eyes, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Let's talk as we go, I always go to them for a while, and this time I just let them know that they committed a crime." What a big mistake."

Andy and the two walked out of the palace, led by Benedictus, and walked towards the so-called parliament hall.

"This Countess, at the beginning of the city's founding, supported Stormwind City with a large amount of funds, thus allowing Stormwind City to completely get rid of its financial crisis. Without her, the nobles alone would not have such a large amount of financial resources." Benny Ditas explained to Andy, "This woman was directly made an earl by Lothar to commend her achievements, but this title is an honorary title and does not have any real power."

Benedictus breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "All of this changed the Storm Council, which forced Katrana into it. People call it the Council of Nobles. They tried their best to win her over, mainly because of the In this way, all the expenses of Stormwind City will depend on their faces, which is also where Bolvar is helpless. The only thing they are still afraid of is Lothar, but Lothar has become like this now."

Andy was silent for a while, and asked: "Where did this Countess come from? She was originally from Stormwind City?"

Benedictus shook his head and said: "I'm not sure about this. They say they came from the north of the mainland. When Stormwind returned, there were indeed some speculators with rich financial resources from the northern kingdom. In this council, how many All of them are from that group.”

Andy frowned. So this countess is a person who doesn't know the details at all. Could it be her?
