Durin's Diary

Chapter 593 Trouble always comes uninvited
"Your Excellency Angallio, I heard that there is a new bone lich in Everforged Fortress recently. I wonder if you have any record of it." At the New Year's meeting of the Church of the Primordial Creator, Angallio Gallagher was the busiest bishop in the entire Great Wasteland.

For no other reason than that there was a registered bone lich in his parish.

Almost all new and old friends who don’t know the truth about him will ask this question when they see him.

Because this bone lich is registered, in human terms, this lich is one of us.

But we have lived for so long, and except for the divine bone lich of Lord Anonymous, this is the first bone lich with a registered identity.

To be honest, the Bone Lich is quite weird. Anyone who sees it will have a headache because it is different from ordinary Necromancers. The latter can still look like a human being after being pieced together, but the former has abandoned flesh and blood and directly turned into bones. It is considered an advanced profession of Necromancer, but you may not be able to find a Bone Lich among ten thousand Necromancers.

This thing requires more talent than being a bishop.

Fortunately, the man in the Eternal Fortress was Lord Durin's latest choice of career advancement. It only took five minutes for his registration to be completed before it was personally signed to him by the Primordial Creator.

But precisely because of this, Angario hates the Sidney people so much - you actually managed to force Lord Durin to this point, you are so shameless!

Lord Durin had killed Will Royce's family before according to the blood debt and blood repayment ritual. The Trinity and the Department of Homeland Security exchanged one for one, and six people died on each side. Then both sides no longer had any disputes over the matter.

Just because the two parties involved are not entangled doesn't mean that others can let it go.

The Department of Homeland Security is under the Sidney Royal United Council. Some nobles continued to push this matter to the forefront and finally succeeded in breaking the news in the media.

But there is a long Tang Dynasty proverb that goes, "A man has his own reasons, and a woman has her own reasons."

Now that Du Lin has been exposed for his support for Northernism, it proves that he is doing his "duty" in executing Northernist traitors.

In other words, he and his Trinity were not hired by Northernism, but it was Dulin himself who cleaned up the mess.

Since the purpose is to clean up the house and execute the traitors, the war had already begun when Sidney's Department of Homeland Security intercepted Dulin's subordinates of the Triarchy. Even if Dulin went on a killing spree, he would not be blamed.

But the two sides finally reached a private deal, exchanging one life for another, to prevent the war from expanding.

But some people don't think so, they feel that not enough blood has been shed.

But now is not the time for the church to intervene, so if there is any rush, it is not Anglia's turn to be anxious.

"Angelio, how is Lord Dulin doing recently?"

"Archbishop Gonzalez, everything is normal. The Invisible Sequence has stripped away the transformation process of the Bone Lich. Now this profession is more like another path. He can transform into the Bone Lich form, and can also restore to the Candle Dragon form." Facing His Excellency the Cardinal, Angallo answered truthfully.

"Lord Wuming trusts Du Lin very much, but I still instinctively fear such a transformation. No one can guarantee whether this young man will lose the support of the people over the long years."

"I believe this is a future that neither you nor I can foresee," Angallo replied. Angallo believed in Cardinal Gonzales's loyalty to the Church, but not in his vision.

Can mortals like you and me have better vision than Anonymous?

………………

The young man sitting at the round table was fiddling with the lighter in his hand. As the interim director of the Southern Division of the Department of Homeland Security, he was looking at the newspapers on the table.

Everyone sitting at the long table was silent.

"Director Will used his own life and that of his family to protect the safety of our family. Now there are still nobles who want to push us into the abyss of fighting with Lord Durin. This shouldn't be right." A branch director finally stood up and broke the silence. His harsh words did not attract much response.

"Then what can we do? His Majesty said nothing, the Queen said nothing, and Director Will's sacrifice seemed like a joke in the eyes of the nobles. They asked us to fight with Lord Durin. What should we use? Our blood and the blood of our families!" Another minister spoke, the old man's eyes were wide open and his fists were clenched.

"Then what else can we do! The nobles control the newspapers, and those crappy reporters are just their mouthpieces! When Director Will was here, he said that we must control the newspaper media and not let the nobles control these media!"

These ministers always like to say these useless things after the fact.

This was brought up many times when Director Will was in office, but in the end, these ministers just said nice things, saying that they couldn't compete with the people for profit.

Now that the knife is on their necks, the people have become aristocrats, the good have become bad, what crap, a bunch of useless people who take advantage of their age.

You rabble, Director Will can save you once, but he can never save you forever.

Thinking of this, the young man threw his lighter onto the table and looked around. "Our only choice now is to send someone to kill the reporter who published this story tonight, putting pressure on the newspaper to retract the article. Otherwise, whoever proposed this to Director Will will face the sharp blade of Lord Durin."

At this moment, all the irrelevant people at the long table turned their attention to the old man.

It was you who instigated Director Will. This is how the Department of Homeland Security used to do things. If you want to change it, it's not impossible. As long as everyone here today is dead, you can change it however you want.

"It's okay for me to go, but what if they refuse to withdraw?" the old man asked.

"So tonight I'm leading a team to kill their financial backer. Only the eleven of us know about this. I've already sent my brother to the Everburning Fortress. If I'm ambushed when I get to that family's door tonight, all surviving ministers of the Southern Division of the Department of Homeland Security will be ordered to be exterminated by the Three Saints after tonight as traitors." Having said that, the young man stood up and glanced at the old minister. "Don't think you can survive by escaping to Changtang. His Excellency Du Lin's reputation in Changtang may be greater than you and I realize. In Western Continent, he may even give face to a few elders, but in Changtang, there will be many people eager to help him. If he falls into the hands of the Changtang people, it may be even worse than falling into the hands of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

After saying that, he walked out of the door.

Finally, the old minister stood up and said, "Chief Executive and Chief Will are both so desperate to die. Why should I feel sorry for them? It's just a complete death for my whole family."

After saying that, he stood up and left the scene.
