Chapter 490 Confused Mind

The Carmen family has two strong men.

One is Placido, the owner of Watchtower, a long-established Meteor Peak Knight.

The second is his sister Melis, who is very accomplished in magic and is now a magician.

Therefore, Melis knows magicians very well. When she saw the paper floating over and hovering in front of them, she knew that there was a magician on the other side.

Because only an eighth-level magician can use mental power to control physical objects.

Hearing this, Placido trembled all over and his face stiffened.

In other words, the other party not only has a Sun Knight and a dragon, but also a mysterious magician.

My God, Watchtower has been responsible for restraining the other side's knights for many years, why is it suddenly facing such great pressure?

Wushan family, with such a powerful lineup, why didn't they go to Red Pine Castle, but chose such a small place?

Placido carefully took the letter paper, and he could feel that the power to control the paper disappeared.

He slowly unfolded it, and it read:

Respected Viscount Placido, I am Ronin Wushan, the guardian knight of the Kingdom of Alduin, the Marquis of Moonlight Valley, and the Earl of Wubei Territory. I have no ill intentions in coming here today, but I just hope to have a friendly meeting with you. If you also have such a wish, please come out of the castle and talk to me. To show my sincerity, I will let my knight retreat several miles.

"This..."

Placido was stunned. He couldn't help but look at the six people on the slope outside the city wall. The young man in the lead should be Marquis Ronin.

Seemingly aware of his gaze, Ronin nodded to him, and the five people around him retreated on horseback. In the blink of an eye, they were already in an unclear position.

"Do you want to go?"

Placido hesitated. Although the other party was only one person, he was a Prideful Sun Knight, and one person was enough to match ten thousand people.

"Go!"

Melis suggested decisively, "People like him also have to save face. It is impossible for him to openly do such a despicable thing as luring you out of the city and arresting you."

Plasido pondered for a while.

With the current lineup of both sides, the other side obviously has the advantage. Ronin really doesn't need to use such dishonorable means to deal with him.

"Okay, I'll go!"

Plasido is also a courageous person. He stuffed the letter into Melis's arms, "Be prepared. If Ronin is really shameless, don't worry about me. Just defend the Watchtower!"

Melis nodded, "Don't worry!"

The north gate of the Watchtower slowly opened, and a warhorse galloped out. Sitting on it was the tall figure of Placido.

Ronin was a little surprised. He didn't ask the other party to come only one person. Placido could bring more people out.

From this, it can be seen that the owner of the Watchtower has a lot of courage.

The warhorse galloped to Ronin, and Placido dismounted. "I didn't expect to meet you here, respected Marquis Ronin, I have heard of your glorious deeds a long time ago, and I am glad to meet you!"

Ronin also dismounted, walked up and shook hands with the other party.

"I admire your courage very much, and I am glad to meet you!"

After a brief greeting, the two got down to business.

"What do you want to talk about with me?"

Plasido asked, "Do you want me to take the initiative to open the gate of the Watchtower and surrender?"

Although the atmosphere just now seemed like a meeting between friends, it became a little sharp when it came to specific issues.

In any case, they were in a hostile state.

"Since you already know my intention, I won't beat around the bush."

Ronin said, "The Carmen family made their fortune here, and Watchtower is undoubtedly your ancestral home. I don't know if you have other territories and industries in the Kingdom of Tricia, but at least here."

"Once the war starts, your foundation in Watchtower will be completely destroyed. Even if you survive in the end, your family will suffer a heavy blow."

Plasido sneered, "Although you are a Knight of the Sun, and there is a dragon and a magician in your team, Watchtower is not completely without defense. To be honest, the kingdom has sent me reinforcements, and they can deal with you and your dragon."

"Don't deceive yourself, Viscount."

Ronin smiled and said, "The reinforcements you mentioned refer to the knight group, magician team and several magic cannons that arrived at Watchtower not long ago?"

Plasido, who was suspected of self-encouragement, finally changed his face after knowing that his details were seen clearly by the other party.

"How could you..." Ronin chuckled, "I already knew their whereabouts the day they came. To be honest, this support is not enough. At least, the Kingdom of Tricia should send you enough Dragonhawk Knights." Placido remained silent. He also wanted a team of Dragonhawk Knights, but the conditions did not allow it. The Kingdom's Dragonhawk Knights were probably still near the Molten Principality. "Surrender!" Ronin got straight to the point, "I admire your courage and strength, and also the elites in the Watchtower. Be loyal to me, and you and your Carmen family will have greater glory." "Impossible!" Placido refused directly, "You are asking me to betray my country, I absolutely disagree!" "Country?" Ronin shook his head, "As far as I know, the Kingdom of Tricia has cooperated with the Molten Principality occupied by the Holy Storm Organization. Do you know this organization?"

Placido hesitated for a moment, "Do you understand?"

"Of course I understand!"

Luo Ning smiled and said: "If you are willing to listen, I am willing to tell you this confidential information."

"Please tell me!"

In fact, Placido was also very curious about this suddenly emerging organization. Before the defeat of the Molten Duke, he had never even heard of this name.

Luo Ning did not hide anything, and told all the deeds of the Holy Storm Organization and Mephisto.

"Your king has cooperated with a foreign race and has stood on the opposite side of mankind. If you continue to be loyal to such a country, you will eventually become a foreign race, just like Count Jesus here."

"Imagine how it would feel if your parents, your wife, your children, your relatives and friends all lost themselves and became minions and puppets of the devil?"

Placido couldn't help but take a few steps back, shocked by Luo Ning's words.

"No, it's impossible, these are all your guesses!"

This subversive information made Placido a little confused. Why did the royal family become a foreign race?

Luo Ning made no excuse. All this information was sent back by Harmon, and there was no doubt about its fidelity.

Placido probably also knew that the royal family was cooperating with the Holy Storm Organization of the Molten Principality, but they didn't know the inside story. They didn't know that this organization was a demonic alien race from another continent.

He got on his horse and said, "The war hasn't started yet. You still have time to inquire and confirm, and you have time to think."

"But the war is coming, and there is not much time left for you to think. Think about it carefully, Placido. Whether you choose to fight me or choose to surrender to me, these will be two completely different paths."

Placido looked at Luo Ning's leaving figure, feeling as if his heart was weighed down by a huge stone.

Honor, loyalty, this is very important to the Border Viscount.

But the future of his family and the safety of his loved ones are also burdens he cannot ignore.

"What if, what if, as Luo Ning said, the royal family has become the minions of the Demon God, then is my allegiance to the Tricia family or the Demon God?"

The shocking secrets about the cooperation between the Holy Storm Organization and the Kingdom of Tricia kept echoing in Placido's mind.

"The truth must be found out as soon as possible."

He turned his horse and returned to Nethergarde Keep.

On the city wall, Melis was relieved after seeing Luo Ning leave. As expected, the latter still wanted to save face and would not use such despicable methods.

She quickly descended from the city wall to understand the content of the conversation.

Red Pine Fort.

Matt, who rushed back from the Golden Feather Palace, handed the king's letter to Garret.

Garrett, who was originally in a bad mood, suddenly had a distorted expression on his face after seeing this letter.

He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tightly, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.

"Why, why did my father treat me like this?"

Garrett stared at the words on the letter. Although Bruno was very tactful in every word, in his opinion, there was distrust everywhere.

He kept asking in his mind: "Just because Luo Ning is a Knight of the Sun and can help you build an empire, you favor him in everything?"

"Because of his power, you not only want to deprive me of my status as commander-in-chief, but also directly transfer me away from the front line and return to Golden Feather City?"

Although Blue gave him the right to appoint Gushan and Ronin, which gave him some dignity.

But Garrett didn't think so. In his opinion, it was a shameless thing for him to return to Golden Feather City when the war was about to begin.

He couldn't accept this happening at all!

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"

Matt asked with some worry, the violent aura on Garrett's body made him very uneasy.

"fine!"

Garrett took a deep breath and calmed down: "His Majesty agreed to let us go to war. I'm just excited about it."

"real?"

Matt's eyes lit up, "This is great. After so many years of border confrontation, we can finally take action!"

"Haha, yes!"

He waved his hand and said, "You are tired too. Go down and rest. Remember, this information will be kept secret for the time being. Also, come back to me tomorrow morning. I have something to arrange for you."

Matt bowed respectfully and exited the room.

The door closed gently, and Garrett was the only one left in the room. He looked at the letter again, with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Father, although you no longer trust my ability, I will use the next great victory to prove you wrong!"

"You are getting old, and your vision is no longer as wise as before!"

He murmured: "Don't blame me..." (End of Chapter)
