Chapter 250: Minister Weilade's Shock!

~7 min read 1,287 words

"This... is this still Viscount Pa Ke's castle?"

Captain Cole stood at the gate of Viscount Pa Ke's castle, staring in shock at the gruesome, unbearable scene in the forecourt, his face full of disbelief.

He clearly remembered that when he left last night, the inside and outside of the castle were still intact.

How could it be that after just one night, this towering Viscount Pa Ke's castle had fallen into such a state?

Of course, when he returned to the wooden fortress last night, he had actually sensed something was wrong.

Because his subordinate reported to him that they had vaguely heard strange roars.

After receiving the report, he naturally frightened his subordinates into closing the wooden fortress tightly and making no sound whatsoever.

After all, no matter what noise it was, as long as it didn't come to his own sentry fortress, it wasn't a problem.

Until dawn arrived, and with everything peaceful, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, he became somewhat curious about what exactly had happened last night.

So, he led his subordinates to search in the direction from which the noises had come the previous day.

This search unexpectedly led him back to Viscount Pa Ke's territory.

Then, he saw the subjects fleeing from Viscount Pa Ke's small town and learned of the attack by dark creatures.

And then, he arrived before this castle gate.

"My lord, the viscount's castle has been looted quite a bit by the commoners; inside now, besides corpses and the bodies of dark creatures, only furniture and furnishings turned upside down remain!"

"Additionally, I caught a few commoners and questioned them; they said Viscount Pa Ke is truly missing, and no corpse was found within the castle."

Several soldiers, covering their noses with cloth strips, walked out from inside the castle and reported the basic situation to Cole.

"Missing?" Cole immediately realized the severity of the matter.

A viscount's castle breached and the lord missing is something that can be directly reported to the royal capital.

"Immediately seal off the scene, and at the fastest speed, send people to Iron Wolf City and Eagle City to inform them of the situation here!"

"Minister Weilade!"

"Parker, you have returned from Iron Wolf City? Has Adani already completed the mission?"

A few days later, inside a luxurious manor in the east of Eagle City.

Minister Weilade sat in the living room enjoying the kneading of two voluptuous maids.

Seeing his subordinate stationed in Iron Wolf City brought in by the butler, he couldn't help but perk up.

A few days ago, he had dispatched a team, preparing to avenge his deceased offspring.

Calculating the time, news should be arriving soon.

Of course, to avoid drawing attention, Adani and the cavalry unit could only travel at night, so it was normal for Parker to arrive first.

Parker's face instantly turned deathly pale, trembling as he said, "Minister Weilade, over there... over there an accident has occurred..."

"What?" Weilade, who had been leisurely at ease, first froze, and moments later his face darkened.

He rose directly from the backrest, sat upright, and said with a dark face, "Get out!"

Although he didn't name names, the two maids clearly understood the situation.

Terrified, their voluptuous bodies trembled, and they quickly bent down and exited the living room.

"Speak, what accident occurred? Did that damn brat escape? Is Adani a waste? Could he even let him escape?"

In Weilade's view, the biggest accident was clearly failing to deal with that damn brat.

However, what he never dreamed of was that Parker's next answer left him incredulous.

"My lord, it is not like that, but rather... rather Adani and the light cavalry... are all annihilated!"

"What? All annihilated? Are you joking?" Weilade suddenly jumped up from the sofa, his gaze fiercely staring at Parker.

"My lord, this news was secretly notified to me by people from the Civil Affairs Hall of Iron Wolf City, saying that Gervas of Storm Territory has already sent someone to file a complaint!"

"Additionally, people from Storm Territory should be coming to file a complaint here in Eagle City very soon..."

"Damn it, waste, waste, Adani this waste, those light cavalry are also wastes!"

Weilade no longer doubted.

However, he could not figure out at all why Adani, a Silver Knight, and fifty light cavalry could not destroy that brat.

Instead, they were counter-killed by the opponent.

Of course, what is most urgent now is not these things.

The relationship between Adani and himself would be known to everyone once sent to Eagle City.

Moreover, those borrowed light cavalry were even more troublesome!

"Dean!"

"My lord, I am here!"

"Do you know where Adani's family lives?"

The butler's heart tightened. "I know, my lord!"

"Send people to eliminate them for me; remember, leave not a single one, then disguise it as suicide out of guilt!"

"Additionally, have someone imitate Adani's handwriting to leave a will in his home, saying he wanted to please me and privately decided to avenge Fario!"

"Yes, my lord!"

"Additionally, send one thousand gold coins to the President of Eagle City, saying this is compensation for the mistake Adani made; although that was a private mistake by Adani, the loss of fifty light cavalry still needs to be compensated!"

"I, Weilade, will make up for this, considering it a penalty for my failure to manage my subordinates properly!"

"Yes, my lord!"

【Ding! Daily intelligence refreshed...】

{Information One: Thanks to your generous lordship's feeding of your subordinates with lightning silver fish and magical potions, their physical attributes have been greatly enhanced.

Among them, the knight squires' strength has improved most noticeably.

Ten knight squires have now reached the threshold of becoming full knights; all you need do is hold a knight examination.

Then, your subordinates will gain ten full knights. }

{Information Two: After your complaint, backed by sufficient evidence, the incident of Lord Pa Ke's attack on your territory has stirred in Eagle City!

However, due to the spread of news that Lord Pa Ke's castle has been overrun by dark creatures, the uproar over your own attack seems to have been overshadowed.

Now, nobles around Iron Wolf City and Eagle City are all discussing Lord Pa Ke's fate and the threat of dark creatures along the border!

Today, the special investigation team assigned to probe Lord Pa Ke's castle assault will arrive at Lord Pa Ke's domain.

Of course, they also carry the mandate to investigate Lord Pa Ke's invasion of Stormwind Domain! }

{Information Three: This morning, no fewer than eight nobles will come to visit you, including Countess Catherine; all have come upon hearing of Lord Pa Ke's attack on Stormwind Domain. }

{Information Four: After more than ten days of travel, the ransom party sent by the Silver Moon Tribe will arrive before noon!

Yet, the Silver Moon Tribe's envoy party is completely unaware that behind them follows a secret force.

It is an army of eight hundred men from the Western Tribes.

Of course, their target is not Stormwind Domain, but the envoy party itself.

Once all tribal heirs have been ransomed back, they will launch an attack on the envoy party, kill every heir, and fake it as if Stormwind Domain had murdered them! }

{Information Five: Three days ago, your electric fan arrived at the royal capital; Marshal Mi Xiusi adores the electric fan you sent him.

Moreover, due to a royal banquet, your magic electric fan will become as famous as a telescope! }

{Information Six: Deep within the Chaos Wastelands, the Mik Settlement and the Houghton Settlement are both major powers with populations exceeding fifty thousand.

Today, over border disputes, the two settlements will erupt into full-scale war. }
