Chapter 250 Rumors and Questions

The two cat-men began to tremble after hearing Ryan's description. They were not cat-men assassins, but just ordinary cat-men.

"It should be... the assassination method used by the assassins in the clan."

Ryan nodded. He thought so too. He asked these cat people to come just to confirm it.

Ryan waved his hand to let the two cat people leave and talked to himself.

"So, the target has been narrowed down immediately."

"One of the two marquises, or even both of them, want to make this matter bigger. The ultimate goal should be to deal with Marquis Beifeng."

"No matter how much support the Empire gives to Marquis Beifeng, in this Beifeng Province, the more serious the situation is, the more likely Marquis Beifeng will need the help of local nobles."

"Then, it will be profitable. No, it should be to take back what originally belongs to them."

Ryan naturally knew that North Wind City no longer belonged to the Marquis of North Wind. The Marquis had lost his position as governor and returned to his own territory, the castle in the mountains.

He should be very angry, right?

"I threw the body into the frozen land and brought it here. Of course, it's because I am also one of the three nobles who own a cat-man assassin."

"but……"

Ryan was a little curious. Was the possibility of Count Sauron really smaller than that of Marquis of the North Wind?
Not necessarily.

Aside from the conflict between the Holy See and Light, there is also a political struggle among the nobles in the Province of Northern Wind.

It's because the Marquis Beifeng has both identities.

In political struggles, there will never be any truth about who is the enemy and who is the friend, even when the dust settles.

"No matter what, throwing the priests of the Holy See to me is not a good intention."

"If that's the case, don't blame me for being drastic."

Ryan stood up and walked out of the castle.

"Prepare the horses. I am going to Thundercloud County."

……

Recently, Leiyun County has been very busy, because every once in a while, a large number of precious resources from other worlds are transported out by large and small trucks, giving the people of Leiyun County a feast for the eyes.

Why is visual addiction so important? Because apart from this, they have no other way to enjoy an alien world.

Tap tap tap~
A sound like ice falling on a frozen river was heard. A dark-faced farmer in the farmland looked up and saw a group of tall war horses galloping towards him. The moment his fear arose, dozens of cavalry had already passed his position and headed towards the Thunder Cloud Mountain in the distance.

He was a little scared, but after he came to his senses, he realized that this was obviously another topic of conversation that he could show off in front of other people.

"You're lying. How can a warhorse make such a sound?"

"No matter what, I won't hear you wrong."

Master McKen took out the blueprint he had treasured for many years and gave it to Brock. The iron hooves made by the latter himself were more suitable for the war horses in the North.

Ryan turned over and jumped down. A servant hurried over to hold the reins. Even though he was wearing warm armor, he couldn't help but trembling with fear, because the breath of the warhorse Winter was not as hot as the breath of a Highland warhorse or a wild beast.

Its breath is cold.

On the hill, the former Earl's Castle is now the Marquis' Castle.

"They say there's often thunder here, but I haven't seen it even once."

When the Marquis of the North Wind, Korisna Columbus, heard that Ryan wanted to see him, he was very unhappy, so he delayed the meeting with Ryan for half an hour.

"Baron Frozen Earth, what's the matter?" Marquis North Wind would no longer be deceived by Ryan, so he spoke in a proud tone.

But Ryan didn't care about the contradictions, but handed over a leather-wrapped object. After opening it, the Dawn Bible belonging to the Vatican appeared in front of Marquis Beifeng.

"The extraordinary inheritance of the Holy See?"

"Lian, how dare you betray the empire and collude with the Church!"

Marquis Beifeng was furious. He stood up and scolded Ryan. The rustling of armor of the soldiers outside the door startled them.

Ryan was not at all panicked and glanced at the Marquis of the North Wind.

"My Lord Marquis, when you said this, have you ever thought about what it is to frame a noble? Also, when you said this, have you ever thought about what my father, Earl Clayton, thinks?"

Krisna stood there awkwardly for a moment, and only chuckled twice after a long time.

"Don't mind me, Baron Ryan. I'm not troubled by the Vatican, am I? A few days ago, someone from the Vatican submitted a declaration of war to me."

"Damn the Southern Church. How dare they use the death of a missionary to frame me, a nobleman blessed by the gods."

"That's really unfortunate."

Ryan spread his hands.

"Those missionaries you met left here and appeared in my territory the next moment, asking me if I had killed their missionaries."

"The most important thing is that they actually found the missionary's body in my territory!"

"Damn the Church, how dare they frame an imperial noble? If this isn't war, what is it? I suggest that the Transcendent Legion of the Winged Canyon directly enter the Andara Kingdom and destroy the Feathered Dragon Legion."

Ryan said angrily.

Then he looked at Marquis Beifeng. The Marquis did not react as he had imagined. Instead, he asked in shock:
"Baron Ryan, it wasn't really you who killed Father Buffett from the Vatican, was it?"

There was a subtle emotion in Ryan's eyes, but on the surface he looked furious.

"Mr. Marquis, what do you mean by this? Are you questioning an imperial baron?"

"How can I possibly kill a missionary from the Holy See? I don't have that much power."

"A person who can become a priest of the Holy See must have at least the same divine skills as a Silver Knight, right? With all the blessings from the Holy See, how can I kill him?"

Marquis Beifeng opened his eyes wide and pointed at Ryan angrily.

"You still want to lie to me. Who doesn't know that you, Baron Ryan, are now one of the three great nobles in the North Wind Province? And you have no power? People are saying that the death of the two viscounts of Lingdu County was related to you."

"Oh? Where did this rumor come from?"

Ryan narrowed his eyes, it seemed someone was targeting him.

What the Marquis Beifeng said was being spread outside was, of course, not something that anyone could tell. It was just some random conversation at some noble gatherings.

Ryan suppressed his doubts and pointed at the dazzling Dawn Doctrine.

Then he took out a yellowed book, which came from the Marquis of Beifeng's preaching in Leiyun County during this period. The contrast between the two at this moment was as huge as the difference between the golden sunlight in the sky and the stinking filth dug out from the gutter.

"My Lord Marquis, you are spreading the existence of the God of Light in my territory. Did you forget to inform me?"

"Besides, I don't think your stuff is comparable to the one from the Holy See."

Marquis Beifeng looked at the two "books" with a flushed face, as if he wanted to find a crack to hide in.
