Chapter 1328 Chapter 250. Getting close to Him by getting close to you
Frankly speaking, Annan was somewhat in the wrong.

If this did not happen, it should be Annan who should be questioned, after all, it was an assassination.

But now, a bigger hat has been thrown at him in advance, and Annan can't deny it yet - the things he did in the Broken Mountains were too full of his personal style.

"You used the same despicable methods on other lords on me!"

Annan did not deny it, but asked in return: "If your people have enough food and clothing, live and work in peace and contentment, how could they be instigated by me?"

Lord Raymond said nothing and continued to glare at Annan.

They were just one step away from falling out.

Or maybe it had been torn, but to no avail—the assassination of Annan was a test.

However, Lord Raymond suppressed his anger and asked, "I heard that you were attacked by my nephew?"

"Yes, I almost died in the fire." Annan sighed.

Lord Raymond stared at Annan, whose hair was not even curled, and had a deeper understanding of his shamelessness.

He still couldn't understand how Annan, who had no help except a team of mercenaries, could have made the Broken Mountains, where he had a stable rule, full of loopholes?
"I don't know."

Annan said directly: "Isn't Killian your son? You asked him to do an assassination that you knew would fail, is it to make way for your other son?"

It was a bold statement, but tonight was Honesty Night.

"I need an excellent successor. It doesn't matter who that successor is."

Lord Raymond stared at Annan gloomily, then suddenly leaned forward slightly and said in a low voice: "Do you want it? I can give the Broken Mountains to you."

"what?"

Annan suspected that he had heard it wrong, then tilted his head slightly and glanced at the golden pillar that was emitting emotions with some confusion.

"I have never seen a more outstanding young man than you. You will lead the Raymond family to new glory."

"Let a foreigner?"

Lord Raymond laughed softly and said, "You can marry a woman from the Raymond family, and the offspring you give birth to will still be of the Raymond family's bloodline."

"No, I don't need an enclave," Annan refused. He didn't want either of them.

Lord Raymond gritted his teeth and said, "You don't need it? But you let those untouchables kill their lord!"

"It's not me. It's just that a group of people who can't live want to make those who make them unable to live unable to live either."

Lord Raymond said coldly: "Then go on, young lord. I will use facts to tell you how meaningless what you are doing is!"

"it is good."

Lord Raymond wanted to continue the game, and Annan was happy about it.

If Lord Raymond completely breaks off relations with Annan, it will be a headache for Annan.

He could certainly defeat the Raymond family and all the nobles with ease, but then what?
Let a group of people who have not experienced revolution and hardships come to power, and then over time, they will become another group of aristocrats who bully the people?
So Annan wanted to distribute the weapon of knowledge to everyone and let them choose their own path.

Again, the future of the Broken Mountains will ultimately be decided by the people of the Broken Mountains themselves.

Annan left the palace, which was luxurious and glorious, but also depressing to him.

Lord Raymond called out thoughtfully, "Mr. Mora."

A shadow in the corner became real.

"Deal with any servants who heard it."

"Yes."

The emerging Mr. Mora stretched out his hand, and dense spiders emerged from his sleeves and crawled onto the bodies of the servants who showed fear and despair.

Their emotions froze on their faces and they followed Mr. Mora out woodenly.

Soon they were replaced by another group, equally young and beautiful, but more cautious in their movements...

Not long after Mora and the servants left, the golden-armored guards hurried in, knelt before the great lord and whispered something.

"How dare he...how dare he?!"

The roaring overlord's fat body was trembling.

"Annan Reeves!"...

Annan looked speechlessly at Mr. Mora who had caught up with him without concealing his tracks at all.

"Are you sure your overlord can tolerate someone coming here so brazenly?"

"I can't bear it anymore, I don't need it anymore..."

Annan was not very good at talking to weird guys, so his eyes fell on the girls behind him.

They were servants of the great lord, with traces of tears on their faces.

Because he heard the conversation between him and the great lord...

"Let's go back to the tavern first..." Annan suddenly remembered that the tavern had been burned down, and changed the subject: "Do you have a place to stay?"

"follow me."

As for the girls, Annan asked Mr. Mora to release his control and ask where their homes were.

The frightened girls said that they were offered by lords from all over the place. They were either sold or robbed and had no home.

"Would you like to go to my territory?"

They had no other choice. If they stayed, they would be executed by the overlord. They could only agree to Annan and accept their unknown fate.

Annan was very happy. These were all young and beautiful girls, and they were a perfect match for the handsome guys in Liberty City.

After opening the portal, Annan noticed that the clouds outside seemed to be moving a little faster.

"Tell Olmedo I'm fine."

After quickly explaining, Annan closed the portal and turned his attention back to Mr. Mora.

"Now can you tell me why you want to help me?"

“I just want to obey Him by obeying you, and be close to Him by being close to you.”

Mr. Mora's movement was like crawling, and a dense, creepy crawling sound was faintly discernible from his gray robe.

"Him?"

"Our common mistress."

"Mother..."

Annan hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to follow his lead or deny it. In the end, he decided to tell the truth: "I don't know who the mistress you are talking about is."

"No, you know..."

Annan saw a spider with colorful patterns flash by from the edge of the shadow of the cloak.

"Our mistress is the ruler of the dark land, and you are the one closest to her..."

Spider Queen Rose?

That makes sense.

Annan has raised the little spider for two years, and the little spider is the Spider Queen Rose...isn't he the person closest to Him?
"Do you know Bishop Sasha?"

"She's been missing for a long time. Have you seen her?"

"Well, it's a long story..."

You can't tell him that Bishop Sasha died in Liberty City, can you?
Speaking of which, they originally thought that Bishop Sasha's death was caused by the elves, but after it was discovered that the little spider was very likely the Spider Queen Rose, things suddenly became suspicious.

He watched his believers die before him. Was he powerless or...

"Are you alone or with a group?" Annan asked again.

Mr. Mora was about to answer when a carriage with the Raymond family crest printed on it appeared on the streets of Golden City late at night and stopped in front of Annan and Mr. Mora.

The female knight driving the car said, "Mr. Annan Reeves, the wife of the Grand Lord wants to see you."

Melanie? What did she want so late at night?

Then Annan thought of what the lord had said not long ago: You can marry a woman from the Raymond family.
