Chapter 176 Perception and Delay

In the afterglow of dusk, several ordinary-looking inland river transport boats slowly sailed towards the river bank in the east district, and set down their boats only a dozen meters away from the river bank.

The city guard Not Bieber and his companions who were in charge of monitoring the exit of the sewer on the river bank did not pay attention to these ships at first, but when he saw that the people on the boat were not dressed like sailors that are common in Helgana, but instead When wearing the black standard armor of the guards and their city guards, they immediately realized that something was wrong.

He hurriedly hid his figure in the woods by the river bank, and at the same time asked his companions to report the information to the captain of Ron's brigade, while he stayed where he was to deal with this group of troops who didn't know which Guards unit it was. monitor.

And this group of about 100 guards troops with strange whereabouts came to the exit of the sewer as expected, and the leaders started some actions that he could not understand.

Then, under Nott's surprised eyes, the exit of the sewer suddenly began to fluctuate like a water surface, and then a few men in black robes walked out of it, and after talking with the people of this army , the army immediately filed into the sewer.

It's not good, is this the reason why Ron's brigade captain asked himself and others to monitor the sewer exit?

A sense of unease and crisis arose in Nott's heart. The troops dressed as guards appeared secretly in the sewers of Helgana on New Year's Eve. It is not a good person to go up.

At the same time, in a spacious room in Wyrmrest Palace on the other side, an attendant hurried to Prince Fermod and reported to him in a low voice:

"Your Highness, General Bonofau has completed control of the Second Guards Division! Now the Second Guards Division has set off for Helgana by warship, and the vanguard will arrive at the predetermined position immediately. The main force will take about half an hour to the Birbinorth Gate!"

"Very well, how is the situation with Fein's servant? Have you obtained my father's spare seal?"

Having received good news, Prince Fermod nodded in satisfaction and then asked again.

"Your Highness, there is no news about this yet."

"Then send someone to urge Fei En's attendant as soon as possible. If he can't even do this, then he should stop wishful thinking about the position of the chief attendant!"

Prince Fermod sneered and waved his hand to wait on him. Then he came to the bookshelf beside him. After twisting a mechanism, a small secret room appeared in front of his eyes.

Inside it was an ordinary-looking magic crystal ball.

"Help me send a message to Master Maltz!"

After coming to the crystal ball and sitting down, Prince Fermod said to the crystal ball impatiently.

"Yes, Master!"

This crystal ball, which was similar to the ordinary magic crystal ball, let out a deep male voice, and then a mysterious wave of magic power came out, and a figure wearing a black cloak appeared inside the crystal ball.

He seemed to be in a dark and damp passage right now, with various complicated rune circles drawn on the surrounding walls, and there were many shadowy figures behind him, busy with something.

"Your Highness, why are you looking for me at this time?"

The cloaked man named Maltz was not wearing the suspicious hood at this time, and his pale face was completely exposed under the light of the shimmering technique.

If Xia Lin saw it, he would definitely be extremely surprised, because this cloaked man was actually Professor Maltz Woodlow, the head of the golem department he had seen in the Royal Academy of Magic.

"How's your progress? The banquet is about to start, I hope you can complete all the preparations as soon as possible!"

Prince Fermod said to Maltz with a serious expression.

"According to your will, my prince, we still need 5 minutes to completely break the protection of the Dragon Rest Treasure House. At that time, we will cut off the Dragon Treasure and His Majesty Prieter at any time you want. Contact, of course, please don't make us wait too long!

Also, remember to bring the crystal ball we gave you. "

Maltz gave a mage salute to Prince Fermod and replied.

"What about the people who escorted my soldiers at the entrance of the sewer? Are they all arranged?"

Prince Fermod tapped the table with his thick fingers, and asked Maltz through the crystal ball.

Although it is different from what Xia Lin guessed, most of the Second Guards Division in their plan will enter the Eastern District through the Birbinos Gate located in the southeast of Helgana and then occupy Wyrmrest Palace, but Prince Fermod Naturally, the convenient and fast way of the sewer will not be missed.

Although the intricate sewer system of the imperial capital only allowed a small number of elites to pass through it, it was enough for Prince Fermod.

"Yes, everything is ready according to our contract."

Maltz nodded affirmatively.

"Very good! Then I will go to the banquet first! I hope this banquet can satisfy my father!"

When Prince Fermod heard that everything was going as planned, he nodded in satisfaction, interrupted the communication, and took the crystal ball out of the secret room in a gift box decorated with complicated golden threads.

"Sharena, change my clothes!"

Calling his personal maid, Prince Fermod changed into a bright red dress inlaid with gold thread decorations. The bright red color was like blood, indicating the turmoil and unrest tonight.

On the other side, Xia Lin, who had come to Isaac's manor to take charge of the new army, also received a message from Princess Dorothea. Just as he was about to send the order to start operations to the mages equipped in each row, but Received an unexpected message from another hidden channel.

"Captain Ron Brigade, what are you talking about? Soldiers from the Second Guards Division appeared on the Seine River?"

"Yes, Sir Xia Lin, the city guards we sent out to monitor the exits of the various sewers discovered that the ships belonging to the Second Guards Division suddenly appeared on the Seine River, and they all gathered near the exits of the sewers in the East District after disembarking. I want to use these channels to do something!"

Ron Colin brigade captain and Xia Lin explained the communication technique performed by the trusted mage supported by the family.

"It seems that the conservatives really have the same idea as us!"

Xia Lin immediately realized that Viscount Hart's previous guess turned out to be the real purpose of the conservatives, and murmured to himself in a somewhat unbelievable voice.

"I understand. This news is very important. When our plan is successful, I will explain to Her Royal Highness the contribution of the Colin family and you!"

After Xia Lin made the promise to Ron's brigade captain, she immediately sent the news to Princess Dorothea through the message technique:

"...Your Highness, although I don't know why the conservatives took such a risk to take the same action as us, but this is undoubtedly an opportunity for us.

After the conservatives attack, we can win the title of righteousness. If we can use this to gain the support of Marshal Hubbard, there is no doubt that our winning rate will rise to more than [-]%! "

"Then act according to your ideas and start at the right time! I will always pay attention to the situation of this New Year's dinner, and if there is anything unusual, I will notify you immediately!"

"His Royal Highness, remember to make Viscount Hart ready at all times. According to the information of the captain of Ron's Brigade, this Guards Division is almost the size of a brigade. If they are allowed to control the Alan Hall, it will be very difficult for you. Words are very dangerous!"

"I understand that the two earls and I will be careful."

Princess Dorothea did not expect that the actions and plans of the enlightened faction and the conservative faction would collide. Fortunately, the conservative faction's assassination of Xia Lin caused flaws in the originally perfect plan.

Otherwise, if the city guards are still in the hands of the conservatives, it is absolutely impossible for them to discover the actions of the conservatives. If they act before the conservatives, then everything will be closed.

After all, unlike the conservatives, the plan of the enlightened faction is based on taking control of Dragon's Rest Palace by surprise.

Only by controlling Longmian Palace first, completing the enthronement ceremony, and occupying the title of righteousness, will they have the opportunity to fight against the power of the conservatives who have just reacted.

If the new army was attacked by the Second Guards Division as soon as they entered Longmian Palace, it is obvious that their plan has completely lost the possibility of success.
