Chapter 797 â Chapter 787: Bloody Day (Middle)
âWhich of the twelve counts has the least servants?âDudian asked Saul who was next to him. He had sent an invitation letter to the twelve counts but there was no reply, in the past three days there were only a few small nobles who came to seek refuge with Dudian. They wanted to be promoted to nobility and be rewarded with territory. Dudian didnât care about them and let Saul temporarily settle down in a hotel near the palace.
âThe least number of servants?âSaul was surprised. He didnât think that Dudian would ask such a strange question. He already knew what Dudian was going to do but what he was going to do had nothing to do with the number of servants? He couldnât figure it out, âYour Highness, as far as I know Count Hemin has the least number of servants. Count Hemin is eccentric and doesnât like to interact with people. He rarely attends the banquet held by the nobles. Even the banquet held by the royal family often doesnât come. In addition to him there is only one daughter left in his family. He doesnât have many childrenâŠâ
Saul was startled. He suddenly realized the purpose of Dudianâs question.
There werenât many servants in the family. Dudian wanted to choose an earl who had fewer family members?
He looked at Dudian but only saw his side face. He was indifferent and didnât have any sense of human feelings. There was an illusion in his heart. But soon he thought of Count Siming. Although he was eccentric.., but he was also a well-known count who was infatuated with his wife. His wife had died early and he had only left a daughter. He hadnât married for the rest of his life which led to the lack of connections in the family.
His wife was an ordinary singer. In the past he had pursued his wife in spite of the rumors and became a legend of the bards. Later on his wifeâs virginity was widely spread. He was a pitiful person.., was he going to be the first to die?
He sighed in his heart. He didnât say anything else. Who wouldnât be pitiful in the face of Death?
âXimingâŠâDudian whispered. He remembered the name. Two wings quickly grew out from the gap of the splitterâs armor.
Half an hour later Dudian came to a big city not far from the imperial city. There was a white flower flag on the high city wall. It was a kind of flower called âsnowbirdâ. It represented the family of Count Ximing.
Looking from the sky, the city was not as dilapidated as other disaster cities.
Dudian flew into the city. Not long after, two figures suddenly flew in front of him. Both of them had strange wings on their backs. One of them had huge wings that looked like a butterfly. The other oneâs wings were vibrating very fast, the thin wings were transparent and there were silver lines on the wings.
âMay I know who you are?âThe mature woman with butterfly wings asked Dudian carefully.
Dudian saw that the heat source reaction of the two was limited. However the magic marks were rare magic marks which had good life preservation ability. He didnât slow down as he shouted: âGet lost!â
The expression of the two changed. The mature woman held back her anger: âThis is the territory of Count Siming. If you want to visit, please report your life. We will help youâŠâ She stopped as she saw Dudian didnât slow down. On the contrary, a shocking murderous aura was emitted from him. She was so scared that she quickly dodged to the side.
Whoosh!
Dudian passed through the twoâs bodies.
The two reacted when they saw Dudianâs back. They knew that they had derelict their duty. They looked at each other and immediately chased after him.
Although they were chasing but they felt that they were flying backward. They were getting farther and farther away from Dudianâs back.
A moment later, Dudian came to an old castle in the west of the city center. There were bustling streets ten miles away from the castle. However, there were vast fields and green hills near the castle, there were large orchards and manors. There was a large horse farm behind the castle. There were a few ant-like workers leading their horses on the green grass.
Dudian squinted his eyes as he saw the scene. If it wasnât for the flag on the castle, he wouldnât believe that this was the place where an earl lived. It was too simple, moreover the area of the huge horse farm required an immeasurable amount of wealth. But the feeling it gave was very primitive. It was completely different from the other nobles who lived in the Golden Zone.
Dudian dived down and landed in front of the main gate of the castle.
âWho? !â
âWho are you? How dare you!â
The guard behind the Iron Gate was frightened by Dudian who fell from the sky.
Dudian pushed open the iron gate. The lock creaked and the Iron Gate was broken. He looked at the guard behind the iron gate: âIs this the castle of Count Hemin?â
The guards reacted and pulled out their swords. They surrounded Dudian. The reason why they were shocked wasnât because of Dudianâs casual display of power. After all, such power could be achieved by ordinary people, they didnât think that someone would dare to intrude into the castle without saying a word. Even the big figures they knew wouldnât do so!
âHow dare he intrude into the castle! take him down!â
âDamn Kid!â
The guards immediately attacked Dudian.
Dudian frowned as he stepped forward. The magic wings on his back flashed and shadows flashed. The guards who were surrounding him froze in place and scattered into pieces.
Dudian followed the gravel path to the front of the castle. There were some maids who were holding quilts to dry in the manor. They were curious as they saw Dudianâs strange clothes.
âThe defense is so weakâŠâDudianâs eyes penetrated through the castle. He found that there was only one pioneer level heat source reaction. The rest were mostly hunters. There were only about twenty of them, it didnât seem like the strength of an earl but it was in line with the criteria of his selection.
âWho is it? !â
A few knights rushed out of the castle. They were wearing heavy armor and looked at Dudian. They were the first to notice the unusual situation at the door.
âI want to see Ximing.âDudian said.
âIf you want to visit the Earl, you need to get his invitation or wait for us to inform you!âThe Knights looked at Dudian coldly. If they didnât feel that Dudianâs strength was unusual then they would have taken him down.
Dudian noticed that the only pioneer in the castle was aware of the movement and rushed over. He didnât act immediately but quietly waited.
The knights frowned as they saw that Dudian didnât speak. They slowly stepped forward.
Whoosh!
The castleâs gate was suddenly blown by the wind. An old man wearing a white robe floated out and landed in front of the Knights. He looked up and down at dudian. There was a trace of surprise in his eyes: âYou Are?â
The knights behind him didnât expect that he would be alarmed. They were surprised to see him using honorifics to dudian.
âAre you the only pioneer here?âDudian casually asked as he looked at the old man.
The old man smiled: âIâm the only one here. I donât know who you are. How come Iâve never seen you before?â
Dudian indifferently replied: âYou havenât seen me but you should have heard of me. Three days ago my invitation was sent to your Earl. He was invited to participate in my succession ceremony. Why hasnât he replied?â
The old man was stunned: âYou, you areâŠâ
âWhy? Didnât he tell you about this?âDudian looked at him.
The old man quickly replied: âNo, no. The Earl has told me about this. Itâs just that the Earl has been ill recently so itâs inconvenient for him to attend. Please forgive me.â There was a bit of cold sweat on his wrinkled face.
âI donât want to talk nonsense. I came here personally so I want a satisfactory answer. Either Ximing will go to my succession ceremony to congratulate me and help me to arrest the traitor Ulita, or you can be the chicken in my hands. There is an old saying called âkill the chicken to warn the monkeyâ. It means to kill the chicken to show the monkey. It means to warn the monkeys who like to jump.âDudianâs eyes were cold, now, let Ximing come out and give me an answer at once
