Plunder the Heavens from Warhammer

Chapter 227: What business is the most profitable? Confiscation! ( words long chapter)

The only heir to the Varsius dynasty was assassinated in front of the planetary governor's palace. The news quickly spread to the upper nest of the Hyperion sector!

But, what is even more terrifying is.

The fate of that noble heir remains unknown to this day, with no news to date. Only a few rumors have leaked out that he was injured by the poison of the Dark Eldar and is on the verge of death.

For a moment, the tense atmosphere of impending storm hung over the nest area like a shadow. The nobles, from top to bottom, all felt panic-stricken, fearing that they would provoke retaliation!

But there were also a very small number of families who were gloating over their misfortune. After all, the heir was suddenly assassinated in front of the planetary governor's palace, and Agamemnon could not escape the blame!
Rather, what they would rather see is a situation where they are looking forward to the early news of the heir's death, so that the Varsius dynasty can vent all their anger on the damned Agamemnon family and benefit from it.

How could Lucy be unaware of the thoughts of those bystander families? So after the riot was resolved, she immediately called in the best pharmacist in the family.

Then, he almost flew to the Valshus mansion.

With the Valshus mansion as the center, the ten blocks around it were all under strict martial law, and the Astra Militarum troops could be seen everywhere, with their ammunition depots filled up and ready for battle.

Lucy Annie was really scared that Alvin would die just like that.

The transaction is secondary. The most hateful thing is that he died at his own doorstep. This wave is completely intended to torture Agamemnus to death!

Whether it was unlucky or not was another matter, but Agamemnon was definitely blamed.

He was the only son of Varsius, and now he died at your doorstep. Even if the case was brought to the Council of High Lords, Agamemnon would have no way to express his grievances.

You can make a fuss, but if someone dies, don't blame them for trying to kill you.

No one wanted to risk their lives against the Varsius dynasty, so Luciennie entered the mansion with a nervous mood, praying silently in her heart that nothing would happen to that guy, otherwise, Agamemnon would be the ones in trouble!

Finally, Lucyenne saw the heir.

The good news is that the heir is alive, but the bad news is... he is obviously very angry!

It was a little different from what I had imagined. The other party seemed to be in high spirits and didn't look like he was being assassinated at all. He was sitting in a dimly lit hall, his whole body shrouded in shadow, as if there was an unsettling low pressure.

At a certain moment, Lucyennie actually had an illusion, as if the person sitting in front of her was no longer the young boy.

Instead, he traveled across the Milky Way and conquered the territories of the human empire, becoming the true ruler of the merchant dynasty!
Invisible pressure filled every corner of the room, as if making the air thicker. Every inch of her skin and hair stood up unconsciously, making her panic-stricken.

Alvin sat in the chair, but he was actually not as angry as he looked. The reason he did this was purely to put pressure on the Governor to achieve his subsequent plan.

Silence and depression!
Just when Lucy was about to give up, Alvin, who was shrouded in shadows, finally broke the silence first: "Sir Lucy, I need an explanation."

Anyone could hear the anger in his tone.

"Sir Alvin, with your wisdom, it must be easy for you to see that this assassination has nothing to do with Agamemnon."

Knowing that she was in the wrong, Lucyenni no longer had the strength she had before. She only wanted to make up for the heir's anger, so she took the initiative to lower her attitude: "Of course, you were assassinated in front of the Governor's Mansion. This matter is inseparable from me. I am willing to compensate you for your losses."

"Losses... Lady Lucy Ennie, you seem to have misunderstood what I meant." Alvin, who was in the shadows, had a deep look in his eyes, revealing a hint of grimness: "What I need is not compensation, but... an explanation, a reasonable explanation."

Lucien was speechless.

Explanation?

How could she explain? You were assassinated as soon as you went out. What does it have to do with Agamemnus? It was just your bad luck!

Besides, I don’t blame you!
If Alvin hadn't been assassinated, how could a bunch of Dark Eldar suddenly appear in her Governor's Mansion? If she had run slower at that time, the position of the planetary governor should have been taken by someone else!

But unfortunately, she was the one who was in the wrong, so even though Lucyenne was full of resentment, she could only grit her teeth and swallow it, forcing a smile: "Then...what explanation do you want, Sir Alvin?"

Her meaning was very simple. We are all thousand-year-old foxes. Stop acting and just be direct...what do you want?
Seeing the other party being so understanding, Alvin's tone softened a lot, and he seemed a little distressed: "Sir Lucyenni, in the Emperor's territory, in the area you rule, there are people who are so powerful that they can allow so many Dark Eldar to sneak in without knowing it, and they are unaware of it. Don't you think... there is a problem?"

Isn't this pure nonsense?

Lucy twitched her lips. She knew something was wrong, but she couldn't find any evidence. So she looked at Alvin, feeling a little tired. "Sir Alvin,"

"No, you are wrong, Your Excellency the Governor."

Alvin held onto the chair and slowly walked out of the shadows. His cold and gloomy eyes made Lucyennie feel uncomfortable all over. "The real reason lies in the corruption of the imperial nobles. It is because of these insects that the damned aliens have infiltrated the territory ruled by Your Majesty!"

His red eyes were full of bloodshot, looking extremely scary. His voice rose again: "Your Excellency Governor, I have reason to suspect that the aliens have infiltrated the bones and blood vessels of the Vigilant Star. They are trying to subvert the Emperor's rule and challenge His Majesty's majesty. We... must use the power of thunder to expel those heretics!"

Until this moment, Lucyennie finally caught the key point from the emotional and impassioned words of Alvin. Her pupils suddenly shrank and horror appeared on her face: "You...you want to attack the nobles of the empire?!"

"No, Lady Lucyenne, you are wrong again."

Alvin took steady steps. In Lucy's eyes, his figure seemed to be magnified several times, carrying a suffocating sense of oppression and shadow that completely enveloped her: "We are clearing out those insects for His Majesty and the Empire!"

"No... No, you can't do this!"

Lucy's eyes widened, as if she was looking at a monster, she stared at Alvin and said in a trembling voice: "You have no evidence, you can't do this!"

"evidence?"

Alvin raised the corners of his lips slightly, looking down at Lucyanne, who was already slumped on the ground with a look of fear on her face, and said with a half-smile: "I am the best evidence, Your Excellency the Governor."

"As long as I'm here, I won't let you do that!" There was no way Lucyennie would agree to this plan. She was a member of the nobility. If she slaughtered the nobles wantonly, then the already wavering nobles would inevitably turn completely to the state religion and Huangquan No. 8!
By then, Agamemnon will be the one who suffers!

"Really? That's such a pity..."

Alvin sighed, turned around and sat on the chair, with his right hand against his head, staring at her indifferently: "By the way, there is something I want to remind you, be careful... the assassination of the Dark Eldar."

"Are you threatening me?!"

There was murderous intent in Luciennie's eyes. She was frightened and horrified. How dare this guy threaten her!
"No, it's not a threat."

Alvin said calmly: "This is just my heartfelt blessing to you as a friend."

"you……"

Lucien gnashed her teeth, but could not utter a single word.

Others may not know, but she knows very well that Alvin is suspected to have a relationship with the Eldar. The mysterious alien who assassinated the cult leader in public yesterday was none other than the Eldar!
Then, the bastard told her to be careful of the Dark Eldar, but the problem was... who could tell the difference between the Dark Eldar and the Eldar? !

If she really walked out of this door, Lucyennie couldn't guarantee that she could see the sun the next day. Besides, the heir of Valsius was also assassinated, which was reasonable!
"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell others about it?" Lucyanne was furious and glared at him, "If this gets out, you won't have an easy life!"

"Makes sense."

Alvin nodded slightly and waved.

Then, a person who looked exactly like her walked out of the room, almost completely indistinguishable, causing Luciennie's expression to change suddenly and her pupils to shrink to the size of a pinpoint.

"Let me introduce you. She is a android." Alvin looked at her with interest and chuckled, "Of course, it is impossible for her to completely replace you, but... keeping your appearance, returning to the Governor's Mansion, and then being suddenly attacked and killed, do you think it is reasonable?"

As he spoke, a tall figure appeared behind Lucienne like a ghost, and the Spear of Song was placed directly on her neck, wrapped in the light of decomposition, which instantly made Lucienne's hair stand on end and cold sweat drip.

"No, calm down... don't be impulsive!"

Nobles are quick-witted. Lucyennie sobered up all of a sudden, sweating profusely, and said, "I can do whatever you said. There's no need for it to turn out like this!"

"Your Excellency the Governor, I don't want to do this either."

Alvin lightly brought up the teacup, took a sip from his lips, and slowly put it down: "You can think about it carefully. This matter may not be a bad thing for you and Agamemnon, but an opportunity."

"what chance?"

Feeling that the person behind her had disappeared, Lucienne breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Alvin warily. "A chance to help Agamemnon and regain power." Alvin raised his eyes slightly and tapped the table with his fingertips: "How many of the nobles do you think are on the side of Agamemnon, and how many are eager to... die immediately so that they can divide your bodies?"

This sentence made Lucienne fall into deep thought. After a while, she said bitterly, "Many, at least more than 80% of the nobles, are unwilling to join the fight. They are all waiting for Agamemnon to be decomposed by the State Religion and Huangquan No. 8."

"Then the question is, since there is no point in keeping those nobles, why don't you just... kill them?"

Alvin crossed his hands and placed them on his abdomen. He tapped his legs and slowly leaned back in his chair, with a playful look in his eyes: "In fact, if you think about it carefully, all you lack is an opportunity, a reason to clear the obstacles in an upright manner."

Lucy's eyes lit up: "You mean..."

"Yes, I can give you this opportunity."

Alvin sat on the chair, looking down at the already shaken Lucyenne, with a slight smile on his lips: "The great heir of the Valsius dynasty has been assassinated, and heretics and traitors have appeared in the empire. And you... just need to use this opportunity to completely clear out the scum that stands in Agamemnon's way, and lighten his burden."

"But……"

Lucy's heart was moved, but she was still hesitant: "There is no evidence. Once I do this, Agamemnon will be completely trapped in the whirlpool!"

"I've told you, Your Excellency the Governor, I am the evidence."

Alvin shook his head and wondered how he became the planetary governor with such little political acumen. No wonder Agamemnon was killed by the state religion and the oil man.

"If you insist on having evidence, I can give it to you." He threw a document over calmly, "Look, Your Excellency Governor, there are so many Genestealers hiding in the hive you rule. This is really a shame to the Emperor!"

"What? Genestealers?!"

Lucy was really panicking now. She hurriedly picked up the document on the ground and just glanced at it. She felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. "No... How is it possible? They have actually infiltrated the nobles of the Upper Nest!"

"Governor, do you think this 'evidence', plus me, is enough?" Alvin knocked on the table, awakening the shocked Lucyennie, and said calmly: "Now, I have given you the evidence you want, and I have also given you the reputation... Do you know what to do?"

What business is the most profitable?

Alvin personally thought that it was, of course, a house raid!

Let me ask you, is there any business in the world, other than the business of robbing houses, that can achieve zero investment and return hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of times?

Haven’t you seen how Wei Xiaobao became rich overnight by relying on the confiscation of property and the extermination of his clan?
With the left hand holding high the banner of justice, and the right hand tightly grasping the sharp butcher knife,

If we kill these insects on the Vigilance Planet one by one, there may be innocent people among them, but if we kill one and let one go, there will definitely be some that slip through the net.

He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity of being assassinated by the Dark Eldar to give these insects a surprise!
Keeping the insects will not be of any use to either the empire or the civilians, but the dead imperial insects will not only be of great use, but will also reduce a large amount of expenses.

Is there anything better in the world than this, with the best of both worlds?

Alvin always believed that only a dead imperial insect is a good insect, right?

"Your plan is a bit too radical."

No matter how brave Luciennie was, she couldn't help but gasp at this plan.

If she really did what Alvin said, how many nobles would die? I'm afraid that by then, there wouldn't be many families left in the entire Upper Nest District, right?
This young man's murderous intention is too strong!

Lucyanne looked at Alvin in horror. She seriously suspected that this guy was an Inquisitor in disguise, otherwise how could he be so murderous?
"Bold? You are too conservative, Your Excellency the Governor."

Alvin shook his head. If he did it, he would only kill more people instead of what he did now. "If you want to restore the glory of our ancestors and regain the power you once had, how can you be ruthless? If you miss this opportunity, you won't have another one as good as this one, Your Excellency the Governor."

Listening to his voice, Lucienne could not help but begin to fantasize about the day when Agamemnon would regain power. Her heart could not help but beat wildly, as if the devil was urging her!
She clutched the document tightly and looked at Alvin. The other person's figure seemed to become taller, and a suffocating pressure came over her. She suddenly felt... that she had fallen into this guy's trap since she stepped into this mansion.

From the very beginning, the other party did not leave her any room to refuse!
Either agree, as the implementer, Agamemnon can certainly gain huge benefits, but from now on, he will be deeply bound to "Valthuus"!
Either refuse, then die, assassinated by the Dark Eldar!

"I understand what you mean, Sir Alvin..."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lucyennie gritted her teeth. There was no way out anyway. The situation could not get worse than it is now. Instead of sitting and waiting to be divided up by the country and Huangquan No. 8, she might as well fight to the death!
Moreover, from the brief contact over the past few days, Lucyenne realized that the heir of Valshus in front of her... would have a brighter future!

She even suspected that the assassination by the Dark Eldar was also a play directed and performed by Alvin himself, in order to... bring Agamemnon, who was at the end of his rope, into this game!

terrible!
This is Lucy Annie's evaluation of Alvin!
But at the same time, it also gave her great confidence in Alvin and Valsius. Perhaps only such people could help Agamemnus regain his lost glory!

"I, Lucienni Agamemnon, am willing to serve you on behalf of the entire Agamemnon family!" Lucienni knelt on one knee and lowered her head: "I swear by my ancestors Agamemnon that I am willing to be your sword and knife!"

"Don't say that, Your Excellency the Governor. We are just cooperating... You don't need to be loyal to me."

Alvin didn't care whether Agamemnon was really willing to be loyal to him. From the moment Lucyenne volunteered to become the butcher in his hand, there was no turning back for Agamemnon.

"Yes... Sir Alvin." Lucienne showed a bit of bitterness. She obviously looked down on Agamemnon, but she quickly cheered up and asked, "You... No, it should be me. What should I do specifically?"

"It's very simple. Kill them one by one, and then seize their assets and confiscate them all." Alvin said lightly, but with full of hostility: "Then... help the obedient ones up, and kill the disobedient ones. It's such a simple thing, I don't need to teach you, right?"

Don't overestimate the dignity of the imperial nobility.

The nobles on the Vigilant Planet are not as good as those on Roselle. At least they have truly fulfilled their motto, enjoyed the preferential treatment of the Empire, and died for the Empire!

What kind of insects are the nobles on the Vigilance Planet?
Ever since he stepped into the nest, he had been holding back a rage in his heart, especially when he saw that the civilians in the middle nest were living worse than those in the lower nest. He realized that the nobles of the alert star were already irredeemable insects, and keeping them around would be a waste of resources!

"..."

Luciennie was shocked. Is it possible to play like this?
The problem that had troubled her and even Agamemnon for a long time seemed... to be solved just like that?

If you think about it deeply, it seems to be that simple!
When Alvin was assassinated, she only needed to announce that it was because a few nobles learned about the content of her transaction with Valshus, became jealous, and hired the Dark Eldar to assassinate her.

Next, throw in the Coleman family's defection to Chaos, as well as the families on the list that were corrupted by Genestealers, and the rest of the people will be shut up.

Then... all you have to do is kill them one by one, seize this opportunity, label all the nobles who oppose Agamemnon as "heretics", and eliminate them all!

Wonderful, wonderful!
Lucy's eyes lit up, as if she had realized something.

She was shaking as if she couldn't control herself, and looked at Alvin with admiration: "You are so amazing, Mr. Alvin!"

How can you be excited about just a frame-up?
Alvin was a little speechless. It seemed that the Agamemnon family was lucky to have survived to this day!
"Don't be too quick to thank me, Your Excellency the Governor."

Alvin waved his hand, interrupted the other party, and got to the point: "I am a businessman. Since I helped you, I should ask for a reward. What do you think?"

Confiscating the house, confiscating the house, the most important thing is not what is confiscated, but what is at home!
He spent so much effort and spared so much time, wasn't it just for that little bit of assets?
Lucienne, who had come to her senses, was very understanding. "No problem. I am willing to give half of all the confiscated noble assets as a token of Agamemnon's sincerity."

Half, and no less.

It can even be said that it was a lot. After all, the executor was Agamemnon, who directly gave up half of the assets. This shows Lucienni's courage and her intention to be loyal.

She was not stupid, but she just didn't think of this step most of the time. But under Alvin's guidance, she suddenly realized the truth. However, she was also very clear that doing so would inevitably cause Agamemnon to suffer political oppression from the state religion and Huangquan No. 8.

Therefore, she chose a "backer" for the Agamemnon family, that is, the heir of Varsius.

Although still very weak at present, Lucienne believes that as long as Alvin is alive, he will soon... lead Valshus back to his peak!

At that time, Agamemnon will become an unparalleled "retainer" with a rising status. Who would dare to seize their interests?

This was a bold gamble, but Lucy Annie thought that since she was gambling anyway, she might as well gamble on the future!
Alvin saw what Lucyanne was thinking, but he didn't refuse. He chuckled and nodded: "Okay, then I'll look forward to...your Excellency the Governor's performance tomorrow."

"Please enjoy your viewing, Lord Alvin."

A sickly blush appeared on Lucy's face, and she smiled like a madman: "I promise, tomorrow... will be the most beautiful day on Vigilant Star!"
