The Duke of Bourbon stayed at a mansion he had purchased in the city.
In the middle of the night, after enjoying a big meal and finding a few prostitutes to have fun, the Duke of Bourbon, who was supposed to be exhausted, did not fall asleep soundly on the bed.
He pulled himself together, walked into the living room, sat down by the fireplace, ordered the servant to bring a basin of water and put it in the middle, and then began to wait.
After an unknown period of time, the living room suddenly began to be filled with thick fog, and the floor, walls, and furniture were gradually covered with a layer of white salt frost.
A gust of wind with the breath of the sea blew by, and a man suddenly appeared on the water basin: leather pants, boots, shirt vest, and a thick cotton coat on the outside.
The dark-skinned man sat down across from the Duke of Bourbon, and said hello with a smile: "Good evening, Your Excellency, the Son of Salt Mist is here to visit as scheduled."
Chapter 320
Although the other party behaved very kindly, the Duke of Bourbon was still full of vigilance.He took a careful look at the mysterious pirate who called himself "Son of Salt Mist" before handing over the envelope he had prepared.
"I have investigated the city defense arrangement in Paris, as well as the defense arrangement on the day of the execution." The Duke of Bourbon said.
Since the imperial meeting, both Charles VII and Ma Youfu have been wary of him. Even relying on his status as a royal relative and aristocrat, the Duke of Bourbon has overcome many difficulties (referring to spending a lot of money in bribes) before finally doing it. Here is the information.
He hoped that with this information, the Son of Salt Mist could successfully rescue Rodrigo.
Although Rodrigo's subordinates suffered heavy losses in the woolen soldier civil strife provoked by Ma Youfu, many people still fled France.Some of the mercenaries originally from Castile returned to the country.The other part with more complicated sources went to Italy to make a living.
In that chaotic land full of wealth, ambition, and conspiracy, mercenaries will never worry about business.
As long as Rodrigo regains his freedom, with the prestige of this thief emperor, he will definitely be able to gather a large number of old subordinates again.And by virtue of his aristocratic connections in Castile and Aragon, he was also able to gain the support of the kings of the two countries and win a place in the next Crusade.
This large-scale Southern Crusade is not the only country that has the final say on France.As long as the war starts, Rodrigo will have a lot to do.
The Duke of Bourbon still had the hope of gaining the military support of a foreign power to continue his struggle with the king.
For this reason, he specially recruited the Son of Salt Mist.
This mysterious great pirate is not bound by faith, has a flexible moral bottom line, and is very honest when doing business, making him the ideal partner.
And the key point is that he is a powerful warrior of the elite rank. Not only does he run across the sea with his special ability, but also on land, few people can match him.
The Son of Salt Mist took the envelope from the Duke of Bourbon, opened it, looked at a page carefully, and then crumpled it into a ball.
Soon, the paper in his hand was eroded by some kind of magic power, turning into a mushy floc, and finally dissipated completely.
The Duke of Bourbon couldn't understand: "I spent a lot of effort to collect the information, and you just ruined it?"
"Your Excellency, the information you provided is very useful. I have already memorized the layout of Paris' city defenses. Isn't that enough?" The Son of Salt Mist looked puzzled.
"Then what about the retreat route I specially planned? You don't even look at it, how can you ensure that Rodrigo can be safely taken out of France?"
"Your Excellency, the surging river can guide me in the direction I want to go, so you don't need to worry about it." After finishing speaking, the Son of Salt Mist stood up and walked into the basin, "I will take Mr. Rodrigo with me as agreed. to Barcelona."
The fog in the room dissipated, and the Son of Salt Mist also disappeared in front of the Duke of Bourbon.
The next second, the Son of Salt was back on a boat anchored on the Loire.
"Mr. Johannes, how are things going?" A woman who had already been waiting in the cabin asked.
She has an appearance comparable to that of a beauty god, and a graceful figure that can easily arouse male desires. She is none other than Valentina.
His real name is Johannes Strozzi, a great pirate nicknamed the Son of Salt Mist. Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, he lazily said, "Very well, the key information has been obtained, as long as you can get Ma Youfu and Dona If Tai Luo pulls away, he will definitely be able to rescue the target."
Although he is confident that no one can beat him at sea, Johannes is still very cautious if he wants to go ashore to "do business".For the well-known Marquis of Lamanche, he paid [-] points of attention, and he didn't want to confront him head-on in Paris.
In addition, Donatello, one of the 12 elders of the Purification Court Wise Men, is also a tricky role.The other party is especially good at tracking, investigating, and exploring mysteries, mastering various prophecy school spells, and even has the thigh of Mirna, the goddess of luck and secrecy, to hug.Wouldn't it be a joke if I, a pirate who came and went without a trace and was at ease on the sea, was tracked down by these lackeys of the Holy See?
So, Johannes decided to lure these two key players away from Paris before implementing the rescue plan.
But his main forces are at sea, and to accomplish such a major event of kidnapping death row prisoners in Paris on land, he must rely on the help of other forces.
Johannes takes a fancy to the Unbelievers, who are also lawless and capable.
This time the Faithless sent to work with him, it was Valentina.
"I have already controlled a small character who has a certain connection with the Sires. Through him, two targets can be easily drawn out of Paris." Valentina said confidently.
"What method are you going to use?"
"I will tell Ma Youfu that someone is going to rescue Rodrigo during the execution on December [-]st. Then, as an insider, I will lure the other party to meet outside Paris. In this way, you can get rid of Rodrigo in the early hours of December [-]st. Do it, and make sure that the other party is caught off guard."
"It is indeed easier for people to believe the nine truths mixed with one lie." Johannes nodded, looking straight at the other party, "However, I always feel that you are hiding something from me."
"Everyone has secrets." Valentina smiled coquettishly, "but don't worry, the son of the great salt mist, the chosen one who inherited the power of the sea god. We are close collaborators, and I will not harm you .”
A meaningful smile appeared on Johannes' face.He stretched out his hand, trying to touch the woman's pretty and tender face: "It's best like this. You know, we both inherited the power of the gods, and we are a perfect match. Perhaps, we should go further to strengthen the relationship between the two..."
Valentina avoided Johannes's hand lightly, and said: "Mr. Pirate, since you know that we are both different, you should control your desires more carefully. Of course, if the two parties agree to use marriage as a further Strengthen the relationship, and it's not like I can't dedicate myself to you."
"I will try my best to make that day come. The taste of the successor of the God of Beauty must be wonderful." Johannes licked his lips, his unrestrained face was full of undisguised greed for women.
What happened next was as expected.
In the early morning of December [-]st, Ma Youfu and Donatello were still in Versailles, and with the help of the Duke of Bourbon, the inner ghost, the pirate group of the Sons of Salt Mist raided the Bastille and successfully found Rodrigo, who was under strict detention.
"Rodrigo de Vilandon?"
"you are?"
"Sons of Salt Mist, at your service. Time is running out, let's go, sir."
"and many more!"
Rodrigo, who had suffered a lot in prison, immediately awakened his fighting spirit as soon as he regained his freedom.He looked out of the window at the city that had fallen into chaos due to the raids of the pirate group, and his eyes began to burn with the fire of longing for revenge.
"I don't know your details, but you should be doing things with money, right? After all, you have the same aura as mercenaries like me." Rodrigo looked at Johannes, stretched out five fingers, "You have done a good job. Now Paris is in chaos, and the most difficult enemy is just not here. I will hire you for [-] ducats, and go to the Louvre with me to cut off the head of Charles VII. How about it? "
The members of the pirate group gasped in surprise at this bold proposal. Even Johannes himself couldn't help laughing and praised: "As expected of a robber emperor, your boldness and determination are beyond the reach of ordinary people. No wonder Ma Youfu wanted Put you to death. If I were me, I would not let such an enemy live in this world."
From the time when he resolutely endured the vengeance of killing his son and surrendered under the siege of Ma Youfu, to now he is bold and reckless and wants to take advantage of the chaos to kill the king, all of which reflect Rodrigo's scheming and courage.It is not unreasonable for him to become a robber emperor who rules over tens of thousands of mercenaries and makes the king and the pope fear him by virtue of his tyrannical force.
Now most of the defense forces in Paris are restrained by riots everywhere. If they really want to raid the Louvre, relying on Rodrigo and Johannes, two strong elites, it is really possible to succeed.
Once Charles VII died, even if Prince Louis, who lacked prestige, was successfully crowned, it would be difficult to convince the public.At that time, a civil strife is inevitable.And Rodrigo can also rise again in the chaos of war.
"Unfortunately, [-] Ducats is indeed an attractive remuneration, but I have a habit of not accepting another task until I complete an employer's task." Johannes directly rejected the other party's offer.
Although the excuse given was very principled, what Johannes really didn't want to see was the death of Charles VII and the chaos in France.The Crusades will inevitably be affected by this, and may even be abandoned halfway.
He is a pirate with roots in the sea.
The two camps of the Seven Saints and Mulholland fought, and the entire Mediterranean became a battlefield, so Johannes could fish in troubled waters and expand his power.
Compared with the grand ambition in my heart, a mere five thousand ducats is nothing.
After being rejected, Rodrigo no longer struggled: "Well, we have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future. Both Ma Youfu and Charles VII are my sworn enemies, and I will make them pay the price sooner or later!"
"If you want revenge, I can provide services. For example, while Ma Youfu was in North Africa, launch a landing raid on Normandy from the sea, and turn the territory he worked so hard into ruins..."
"Interesting!" Rodrigo showed a cruel smile, as if he had seen the beauty of his successful revenge.
The two left the Bastille while chatting.Since most of the castle guards had been killed before, Johannes simply chose to walk through the main entrance swaggeringly.
When he just stepped on the bridge over the moat, the situation suddenly changed.
I saw the bright magic aura shining under everyone's feet, and magic circles composed of complex patterns suddenly emerged one by one, and the threat of death suddenly flooded my heart, making the hairs of the two elite-level powerhouses stand on end.
Chapter 320 The Cunning Siris
Feeling the soaring concentration of magic power in the air, Johannes shouted in horror: "Get ready to deal with magic attacks!"
After speaking, he quickly mobilized the power in his body inherited from the ancient Sea God, and formed a shield composed of countless salt particles in front of him.
These divine salt grains shone with crystal clear light, which was enough to completely resist the attack of the five-ring spell, so Johannes was relieved.
When the members of the pirate group fled or hid, trying to avoid the sudden attack, the magic circle had already been activated.
I saw three green rays shooting at Rodrigo one after another.The whole process was as fast as an aurora lightning, and it was over in the blink of an eye.
Everyone in the panicked pirate group came back to their senses, and they saw Rodrigo lying on the ground in horror.
The once glorious robber emperor was already on the verge of death. His left abdomen was hit by a beam of green light. About one-third of the human body tissue was completely wiped out, leaving only a huge hole.
The three green lights all pointed at Rodrigo, even if the latter had the ability to dodge far beyond ordinary people, he could not escape.Such a targeted spell ambush is obviously not accidental.
"That cunning Serisian still has a backhand. I underestimated him..." Johannes looked livid, and hurriedly ordered the priests in the team to heal Rodrigo.
It was impossible to save him. It would be the best result to be able to live longer and hand Rodrigo over to the Duke of Bourbon before dying.
Ma Youfu has made many preparations for possible prison robbery.In view of Rodrigo's deep friendship with many French nobles, there must be many insiders in Paris. In addition to increasing the defense force on the surface, Ma Youfu also set up a secret for the Bastille to hide from many people. defensive measures.
He spent a lot of money to buy twelve scrolls of disintegration from the Earl of Armagnac.
The destructive power of this six-ring change school spell is quite amazing, and the only defense methods are to increase the magic resistance and rely on physical strength to resist.
Not
However, apart from Lahaier's physique superman with giant blood, it is difficult for ordinary human beings to survive the attack of the dissociation technique even if they have mastered extraordinary powers.
After being hit by that terrible green light, the effect is like an energy weapon in a science fiction work. Human tissue is directly destroyed and decomposed, causing irreversible damage.
Ma Youfu's four main entrances and exits in the Bastille are each equipped with complex magic circles centered on three dissociation scrolls.When Rodrigo was imprisoned, Mayouf ordered the guards to shave all his well-groomed hair.Rodrigo thought it was a deliberate humiliation from the Sires, so he didn't think too much about it. He just suppressed the anger in his heart and endured it all the time.
But Ma Youfu was not as superficial as he thought.These hairs, combined with the biological positioning technique, can add a function to the magic circle to lock all the magic attacks on Rodrigo.
That's why everyone in the pirate group made a false alarm, and didn't wait for the expected magic attack at all.
It is necessary to use the magic circle to stimulate advanced spells that exceed one's own spellcasting ability, and to add various auxiliary spells to the magic circle, so that Rodrigo can be activated immediately when he appears, and then the target can be killed.
Ma Youfu's own magical attainments are very good, and he used the ability of the artificer to make some special props to replace the traditional magic circle before finally completing it.
Now it seems that although it has not done its best, the effect is not bad.
Suddenly, Johannes did not dare to continue to stay in Paris.He ordered people to take the dying Rodrigo, and then rushed all the way to the Seine.
The Salt Spray Pirates boarded the pre-prepared ships and set sail upstream.The Paris defenders also discovered these enemies at this time, and immediately issued an order to pull up the iron chains set up at the city wall at the mouth of the river to prevent the enemies from escaping.
This iron chain was newly set up after the Battle of Paris, in order to prevent the classic battles led by Ma Youfu from reappearing.Didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
Facing the death situation of Iron Chain Hengjiang, Johannes did not panic at all.
He chanted ancient prayers with a history of thousands of years, and gradually gathered enormous sea god power.
The Parisian defenders on the shore saw a miraculous scene: a mass of dense milky white mist wrapped the more than 100-ton ship, and just when it was about to hit the iron chain, it suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The members of the Salt Spray Pirates who attacked Paris, including their people and boats, were transported by Johannes from the Seine River to the Loire River more than 100 kilometers south.
"Okay, scumbags, there is no need to worry anymore. We only need to go through a 'jump' to enter the Rhone River. When the time comes, we will go southward and enter the Mediterranean Sea!" Johannes laughed loudly.
The members of the pirate group who had escaped suddenly let out mixed cheers.
But not long after the voyage, when the sky was just dawn, the priest of the pirate group brought Johannes bad news: "Rodrigo is dead."
