Shadow Bear Tibbers’ Plane Journey
Chapter 143: Assassinate the Demon King Annie (2)
Welcome, please remember the address of this site: Read on your mobile phone, so that you can read the latest chapter of the novel "The Journey of the Shadow Bear Tibbers"...
Stormwind City, the king's ruling hall of Stormwind Fortress, gathers all the leaders and high-ranking nobles of the kingdom.
Matthias Shaw, the young leader of MI7, was here to meet King Varian of Stormwind Kingdom sitting on the throne, and he was reporting on the city gate incident the other day. The Countess Katrana Prestor and the Duke of Bourvar Fortagan, as well as several other nobles and high-ranking officials, were standing at the top of both sides of the king.
Yesterday, he did not rush to give Ravenholdt an assassination mission to a queen of another country. This matter is definitely not something he can easily decide by Matthias alone, even if the other party is just a person who is not affected by the storm. A country recognized by the kingdom!
Therefore, after obtaining information about the two little girls from Ravenholdt, the Assassin League organization, Matthias, who felt that the situation was a bit serious, returned to Stormwind for the first time, and the next day Now in the morning, I met with King Varian and reported to him what he knew from the Assassin Alliance yesterday.
"Madias, are you sure that the information you obtained is true and reliable? There is nothing wrong with it?"
King Varian took the written report signed by several important leaders of MI7. After reading the details for a while, he handed it to Bolvar who was aside. As he asked questions, his face looked a little unnaturally at Mathias.
From Varian's point of view, this matter is full of weirdness. In his view, many places seem very unreasonable!
First of all, for the Queen of the Flame Kingdom named Anne Hasta who blew up the gate of Stormwind. Why would she run away from the northernmost part of the mainland to Stormwind Kingdom in the south without any reason? What is the purpose?
Secondly, since the information is said, the other party does not seem to know the original named Vanessa VanCleef. A few days ago, there was not even any intersection between the two!
So, why would she somehow save that Van Cleef's daughter? Blew up the gates of Stormwind in one fell swoop, recklessly? And the gate guard who killed at least 30 people?
As the king of a country, he just shot it casually like this, and was it to help a person he didn't know, and blatantly become an enemy of another powerful country? This approach is very unreasonable in Varian's view! Anyway, before he thought about it, no king would do such an outrageous stupid thing!
In the end, the intelligence also said that the Queen of Flame named Anne Hasta was still an eight-year-old human demigod mage? Did he scare away a powerful big demon without even having to act?
What kind of joke is this?
Therefore, when Varian saw this, he absolutely did not believe that there would be an eight-year-old human demigod!
Medivh, the demigod guardian made by humans, was not so outrageous back then? Not to mention, the other party even scared away that supposedly very powerful existence, the great demon named Archimonde!
Scared away? Didn't officially fight? How could such a thing happen?
That Ravenholdt wants to make up stories to cheat money, so please make up a little more reliable if you have trouble!
Anyway, Varian absolutely doesn't believe that there will be any little girls and demigods, at best they are only a little genius, a little stronger! As for the other party's move to save that Vanessa, Varian was also puzzled!
He would never have thought that as the queen of a kingdom, Little Annie never took this seriously! When she saw something that made her unhappy, she felt upset, and when she wanted to do it, she just grabbed the fireball and started the fight. As for the consequences, she didn't even think about it at the time and didn't care about it at all. !
Little Annie sees you are upset and wants to hit you, so what can you do? Dare to refuse? Dare to stare? Be careful, she will let Tibbers come out and kill you!
"Report to your Majesty! This matter should be true."
"Because, according to their Ravenholdt's intelligence, in the entire Eastern Kingdom, there is a wizard who has the ability to cast spells to blow up the gates of our Stormwind City, and is a little girl of this age, I am afraid there is only the queen of the Flame Kingdom! It is said that she is particularly good at fire spells, which is consistent with her performance when she shot the city gate a few days ago."
Having said this, Matthias paused first, and when he saw that His Majesty the King had no particular disgust, he continued cautiously.
"Furthermore, shortly after the gate incident in Stormwind a few days ago, Ravenholdt Manor received accurate information: the queen of the Flame Kingdom, she did indeed return to her palace with a weak human girl! , The most important thing is: that weak little girl, her name is exactly Vanessa VanCleef!"
After speaking, Mathias stopped talking.
Speaking of it, this matter is indeed a bit embarrassing. Their dignified MI7 is actually reduced to the point where they buy intelligence from the Assassin Alliance...
However, this matter can't actually blame him. Not long ago, he had just received an order from above, asking MI7 to send personnel to the four northern countries to establish an intelligence station.
Now, the spies and other personnel sent are probably still floating on the merchant ship, and are heading for the eastern port of Lordaeron in the north, right? I am afraid that the collection of intelligence will have to wait a long time. Moreover, it will be very troublesome to send messages back then. They don’t have a large number of wizards to cast spells to help with communication. After all, now Dalaran has been destroyed, and the surviving wizards are said to have gone to the north. What went to the Flame Alliance.
"Well, even if the information you got is true... But, what can we do now? Katrana and Bovar, you guys are going to talk about it, do you have any good ideas?"
Even if all this is true, the gate of their Stormwind Kingdom was indeed blown up by the queen of another kingdom.
This kind of behavior, which was obviously hostile and stunned their Stormwind Kingdom, would definitely not just let it go! But for a while, Varian didn't think of any effective ways to deal with it.
After all, the distance between the two countries is so far apart, and there are several continents in between, and there are areas where the undead and demons are raging. Whether they are sending soldiers to threaten or send envoys to protest, in this situation, they will appear to be meaningless. !
"Uh... Your Majesty, this matter... is really not easy to handle! Perhaps... we can hire those Ravenholdt killers directly and let them get rid of these two wanted criminals?"
After reading the contents of the parchment in his hand, Bolvar handed it to the Countess Katrana next to him, and by the way, he also made a satisfactory proposal to King Varian.
Until now, the Kingdom of Stormwind still does not recognize the Flame Kingdom and the Flame Alliance!
Since the queen of their Flame Kingdom, the leader of this illegal force came to the south to blow up their gates, and killed so many Stormwind soldiers, then this matter must be asked for an explanation!
Besides, from what the other party did a few days ago, Bovar can see that what kind of Queen of Fire, she seems to be very hostile to the Kingdom of Stormwind!
In this case, in the current situation where MI7 can’t be far behind, then simply pay directly and let Ravenholdt’s Assassin Alliance take the action, cut out the flame queen and the daughter of Van Cleef in one fell swoop, and they will provoke them if they save it. Trouble is coming!
"Where can we come up with such a large amount of gold coins? Bovar, you don't know the current financial situation! Even the small amount of money for repairing the city gates, the **** of the parliament, are all too slow. After a few days, I reluctantly agreed to post it!"
Without even thinking about it, Varian directly rejected the Duke of Bourval's proposal. By the way, he complained and abused the group of bureaucrats and nobles in the parliament.
The Kingdom of Stormwind is very poor now. To put it bluntly, there is no money except no money!
Let alone the assassination of 50,000 gold coins to buy out a group of assassins to assassinate the queens of other countries! Even, they can't even get the 10,000 deposit in a short time!
If there is so much money, Varian would prefer to send troops directly to find the trouble of the other party, rather than as it is now, a group of high-level officials are discussing how to send a killer to play assassination, such an extremely unhonorable act! You know, Varian is most disgusted with using assassins to assassinate him as a king!
"Uh... this... it is indeed a big problem!"
When it comes to money, there is no chance! Bolvar had to nod his head and agreed with the king.
That's right, Stormwind Kingdom just has no money now! Otherwise, where would they worry about the Defias Brotherhood before? Even not long ago, the **** officials had been arguing about the money for repairing the city gate for several days!
What embarrassed Stormwind Kingdom even more is: Those craftsmen are starting to become less and less plausible, even dare to say that they can't work without money? Is Storm Kingdom so unbearable? Still owe them that little money?
Okay, the misfortune of the Masons Union can only be an exception. It’s just because the money is too much to get out in a short time, so they will rely on... ahem, anyway, anyway, they are You will never be reckless with the money for repairing the city gate. It's just a city gate, and it's not worth a lot of money!
"Your Majesty, then, what should we do now?"
Matthias looked at the King and Lord Duke from below. The two wrangled for a while, as if they could not make up their minds. When they became silent, he had to ask carefully again.
He was just a person responsible for running errands and performing tasks, and he didn't want to mix too much with matters of the upper echelons of the kingdom. Now, regarding the matter of the two most wanted criminals, he has already retrieved all the information, which should be regarded as completing his own task.
So, he doesn't have any responsibility for this matter. In the end, how to do it is up to the bosses above! What they say, he will do what Mathias does, and it is always right.
"Don't do anything! Just put it aside for now, well, the meeting is over!"
Varian felt so embarrassed that his kingdom had no money! Relying on the meager tax revenue is simply not making ends meet, so a large part of the usual expenditures can only be raised entirely by the noble bureaucrats for the time being.
This also made him have to separate a large part of the rights that belonged to the king. In the end, he was subject to others everywhere, putting him in a very embarrassing situation!
This matter, in the case of no money, to pay to hire Ravenholdt to assassinate, there is no need to talk about it. And the other party and Stormwind Kingdom are too far away, there is no way for the time being, so it can only be shelved.
That being the case, there is no point in discussing it now. Therefore, after Varian announced that the meeting had ended, he waved his hand directly and took the lead to leave, so that he could not see it! This matter will be saved for later...If you have a chance in the future, go to the other party to settle the account.
"Your Excellency, you said, if I can persuade the council to collect the ten thousand gold coins, will the assassination plan work?"
After seeing His Majesty King Varian leave, Katrana didn't know what she was thinking about, and she said something like this to Bovar who was about to leave.
"No? Can you persuade those stingy guys to pay such a large sum of money? Forget it, Ms. Katrana, don't waste time! Those guys, asking them to pay this amount of money is equivalent to asking them Killed them!"
Bolvar shook his head and waved his hand, and turned around and strode out of the hall. Since His Majesty is gone, what is he doing here?
It's rare that there has been no major incident recently, plus the two rains a few days ago, his body is feeling a little unwell, just because he has nothing to do now, he has to go back and take a good rest first.
"Borval! What if I could really make up that money?"
The countess smiled and looked at the Duke who had turned and strode away. Before the other party was about to walk out of the gate, she suddenly shouted at the other party.
"Then this matter is left to you! Do whatever you want!"
After finally waving his hand to the countess behind him, Bauval finally walked out the door and turned away. Things that His Majesty can't help, he certainly doesn't want to care about Bovar, so let her toss it.
Anyway, he doesn't have to pay for his own money by Boval!
If Katrana can really make up the money, let her do it! It is good that the assassination is successful, and it can eliminate two potential enemies for Stormwind! In case of failure, Bolvar also felt that it didn't matter, he didn't pay even a copper plate for it!
"Madias, come here..."
After achieving her goal, Katrana, who was authorized, began to smile, and beckoned to the head of MI7 Madias who had been caught up in the conversation between the two just now.
Money, gold coins or something, to her Katrana, it is meaningless!
Even without the funds of those greedy and ugly nobles, Katrana can take it out casually by herself, but it's only 50,000 gold coins, and more. Who is she?
Such an interesting thing like this, whether it succeeds or not, can add hatred between two countries. How good is that?
Take a look, just to pay such a small amount of gold, you can add a foe or a mortal enemy to the Kingdom of Stormwind for nothing, this is simply not too cost-effective!
In the eyes of Earl Katrana, she wanted to see things that could be easily solved or achieved with gold coins. In that case, she would not have to worry about other thoughts, and it would hurt her body. Where can she use gold coins to make a profit? How good is this?
...
Speaking of the Ravenholdt League of Assassins, they are not only powerful, but they have also always acted very secretively. Many people, people who have not been in contact with this Assassin League, even suspect that this so-called Assassin Organization is probably simply does not exist!
But in fact, the headquarters of Ravenholdt Manor is located in the forest southeast of the Alterac Mountains.
The specific location is just south of Icewind Post, north of Dunhold Castle, east of Tarren Mill, and west of the mountains bordering the Hinterlands.
The owner of this secret manor is Duke Jorazzy Ravenholdt! This man known as the king of thieves, at the same time, he is also the supreme leader of this powerful alliance of assassins!
In the first two months, although the undead army led by Kel'Thuzad swept the entire Hillsbrad Hills, because the Ravenholdt Manor was too secretive, they were not affected by the undead natural disasters. Any impact. Even now, in the manor, this assassin gang is still doing what they should do, and does not pay attention to the scattered undead or demons still wandering outside.
"My Lord Duke! There was news from Stormwind City. They were really willing to pay the money, and the ten thousand deposit has already been received."
In the manor, Duke Jorace Ravenholdt, he is on a wooden terrace on the second floor of the manor, drinking afternoon tea and eating pastries in the mild sunshine, enjoying his good afternoon.
When he closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep, a masked thief quietly appeared behind him, knelt down on one knee, and whispered the latest news about Stormwind.
"Hmm...very good, it seems that we are going to make another windfall!"
After Qiao Laqi became a demon for a while, he said with a smile.
"The manpower on the side of the Flame Kingdom is already in place, right? So... now you can go to send a message, let them take a few days and start when they find an opportunity."
Without even looking at the person behind him, Duke Joracy Ravenholdt continued to pick up the teacup, snorted a few times after taking a sip, as if he did not want to assassinate a queen, this would definitely be pierced. The big things of the sky are in sight.
When he thought about it, the other party was nothing more than a little girl with strong magic power. Isn't it a demigod who said that even if he has the strong magic power, what can it be? Besides, the fact that Kalimdor has worn it back has proven that even a demigod can be killed!
Moreover, they didn't seem to have seen that little girl show corresponding strength. At that time, when facing that Archimonde, she just exploded in strength. It looked scary, but in the end, even a spell was useless, and the other party just ran away inexplicably!
Rather than believing that the other party has great strength, he is more willing to believe that the other party must have secretly colluded with the devil! Recently, news from the top of Lordaeron also vaguely proved this. The fire elements are unwilling to cross the river that seems to have been defaulted as the border, and the undead and demons are the same. So, this matter, after a little pondering, seems very interesting!
The most important thing is that this little girl, she's pretty carefree all day long, she has those powerful fire demon guards, but when she goes out, she never takes even one of her men!
Now, their Assassin Alliance is going to kill such a defenseless wizard, isn't it the same as playing? This is simply a windfall for nothing, I am sorry for the conscience of their assassins if I don't make this vote!
"Yes! Lord Duke! I'm going to send a message!"
After the masked thief who was behind Duke Jorace Ravenholdt responded, he turned slightly and left. Only Qiao Lazi is left here to enjoy the peaceful afternoon alone.
...
The time has come, and the late bloomer old John has been very proud of it recently! After the end of the second orc war, for a long period of time, his position at that time could be considered to have never moved a bit.
However, since the undead and natural disasters raged, he started from a small watch tower ensign and went all the way up to the sky. First he became the steward of a refugee camp, and then he became the mayor of Flame Town.
But now, the Flame Town hasn't been completed yet, and he has been transferred to the bio-inhabited area of the City of Flame, where he has served as the supreme governor of the bio-region, responsible for the management and daily operation of this large special area.
Now, in this cold winter season on the northern continent, it is as warm as the city of flames in summer, and it has naturally become more and more prosperous. It has become a good place for wealthy and powerful humans or high elves to spend the winter!
A large number of leftover nobles of Lordaeron or wealthy merchants, or the high elves who were tortured by the devil, ran to the biological area of the city of flames, or spent the winter, or Absorb the abundant fire element magic power here to ease the magic hidden.
Moreover, the most important thing is that as soon as they came here to live, they began to randomly set up tents, or built houses randomly, preparing to be so lazy and not wanting to leave.
Old John couldn't send troops to drive away, because this was in full compliance with the covenant signed by the Flame Alliance!
Because of these more and more nail households, Old John had to re-plan the entire biological area, knock down all the scattered houses and rebuild them, and auctioned out a lot of cleaned land so that they could live in for a long time. The humans or high elves here are able to build their own houses and live there without disrupting the basic order of his jurisdiction.
Not long after that, thanks to the exaggerated construction speed of the Fire Elementals, the order of the biological area he was in charge of finally improved a lot and began to become more and more prosperous.
From the time he was ordered to take over this area, it took only a dozen days or so, and it has become the most prosperous and lively place in the entire Flame City, except for the commercial district!
To do business, go to the commercial district across the wide avenue; to eat, come to the prosperous biological district. This has become a familiar mantra in the city of flames, whether it is the fire element or the creatures of other races.
Whether they are dwarves, humans, or high elves, they have a considerable number of owners living here.
After all, the nationals of all the four countries of the Flame Alliance enjoy the right to live and travel freely in the other three countries. These people came here to buy land and build houses to settle down, which did not violate any regulation of the Flame Alliance.
"Yo! Archon John, how are you? Are you free lately? Why, tonight, continue to come to us for the winter ball?"
An aristocrat of Lordaeron wandering on the street, when he saw Old John, dressed in casual clothes, led by two guards wearing fire-red full-body plate armor, and holding a flame sign, he patrolled the biological area. Came forward to talk to win the relationship, and tried to invite the other party to his dance party.
Now this old John, who was born with mud legs, is a hot character in the City of Fire.
After all, the former Lordaeron nobles who no longer have too much power, the highest level of the Flame Kingdom that they can reach and the easiest to reach, perhaps, is the ruling chief of this human area, Old John.
"Aha, it's Baron Pusius... Well, thank you for your kindness, but... I don't have so much time these days. You must have seen it too. I have been very busy lately. There are many things in such a large site, but I need to take care of it myself, another day! Another day I have time, I will definitely come!"
Old John smiled and dealt with these **** aristocrats who knew pleasure all day long.
Since he had participated in this kind of winter dance not long ago, he never wanted to mix up again!
That kind of extravagant and lustful dance party is definitely not something the poor John can enjoy. Old John doesn't like this kind of life very much, and he is very disgusted! The thought of the so-called winter dance party made him feel uncomfortable!
After dealing with the difficult Lordaeron nobleman, when Old John turned around another bustling street, he saw the figure of a little girl wandering around carrying a teddy bear. It was a coincidence. It is Her Majesty of their Flame Kingdom!
Seeing this, Old John's eyes lit up. Since he was met here, he must go up to say hello and try to show his face in front of Her Majesty the Queen. There are not too many opportunities like this. After all, even if he is already in power as a bioregion, he is not qualified to enter the Queen's Palace casually.
Well? Seems something is wrong?
When Old John just wanted to go up to say hello to the Queen, as a senior veteran soldier, he discovered that the crowd around Her Majesty... seemed a bit unusual? Murderous?
Those human beings eating in front of a stall seemed a little careless? Eyes still look at Your Majesty the Queen who is going there from time to time?
and many more! Also, the two goblins on the other side are obviously selling some expensive things at a stall. They don't run to the opposite commercial area but come here? Don’t you know what they sell here? Look at the deserted look in front of their stalls, and they neither care nor yell, is this what goblins who see the money open?
They are simply wasting time, and for their goblins, time is money!
Finally, on the way the Queen is advancing, where... there are actually two trolls? Are they guards hired by a caravan? But...their route seems to be outflanked and clipped in the direction of Her Majesty, intentionally or unintentionally? what! Did they reach into their backs?
not good! There are assassins!
"There are assassins!!!"
Old John's heart was embarrassed. He finally realized why he always felt that something was wrong. It turned out that someone tried to disadvantage the Queen? After understanding, he only had time to let out a heart-piercing cry, but in an instant, together with the two guards beside him, he was suddenly stunned by the attack from the rear...
The common skill of thieves: sap!
Behind the three of them, I don’t know when three thieves appeared ~www.readwn.com~ It was just three saps, and directly put the old John and two plate guards who had just shouted to the ground. I am afraid that the three of them will definitely not be able to wake up.
At the same time, the two trolls who had already walked to the sides of Little Annie, in an instant, took out their hands in their backpacks, and they turned out to be two daggers exuding cruel green. , It was smeared with various poisons on it!
The troll on the left directly wiped the sharp dagger on Annie's white neck with lightning speed. That is the deadly skill of thieves: split, wipe the throat!
And the troll on the right is a squat, two daggers that are also smeared with poison, and slammed them towards the sides of Annie's back at a diligent angle. It is also a thief’s signature skill. : Kidney shot!
These two trolls, obviously habitual offenders, cooperated perfectly. When the blade was about to touch the little girl's skin, she seemed to have just reacted. In those big cute eyes, there was curiosity and a little bit of surprise... …
