Chapter 119 (1/2)
In the empty Castle hall, the dead atmosphere condensed in the air like substance. Dozens of people seemed to have a deep tacit understanding. There was no sound, as if even the wind stopped at this moment.
The hall was so silent that it seemed to hear everyone's heartbeat.
Fear, amazement, struggle, disbelief... Every nobleman standing in the hall shook his head, did not dare to look at the figure sitting on the chair, and did not believe the facts in front of him.
Is Reuven Fred still alive? Shouldn't he be dead?!
Every noble roared desperately at the bottom of his heart, recalling the whole seamless plan. It was clear that every step was carried out perfectly. Why was the result completely different from what they thought?!
Now the most critical enemy is living well. No one knows how the young count master will vent his anger.
In the long wait, the frightened nobles fought two battles one by one. If old Barry Senna had not been there, they would have fled back to their territory.
The old man standing in the front, however, did not have the slightest panic on his face, but was extremely calm.
The gamble was lost from the moment he knew that Reuven Fred was still alive - he bet all his money, but still failed to take the young count's life, but let him live.
In addition, will Senna is probably dead, has lost an important heir, and has suffered heavy losses in prestige and financial resources. For the time being, the senna family has to lie dormant under the wings of the Fred family.
But even if Lu Wen wins, it doesn't mean he can do anything about himself. After all, he saved the count's life from the refugees, and ruwen had no right to punish him; As for leaving the castle and returning to the territory without authorization, it is not a serious mistake in the face of saving lives.
Moreover, it is their own army that controls the castle now. Even if the count intends to be tough, he must consider the consequences - how long can the guard knights who have fought all night persist in front of the heavily armed army?
Another good thing about getting old is that you look down on success or failure. A failure can't decide anything. As long as he is still alive, he can continue to lead the Seine family to resist secretly, so that the rule of the Fred family in shenlinbao can never be stable.
The old man raised his head slowly, and Reuven Fred, sitting in the Lord's position, was looking at him as well. The two men only looked at each other, and Barry Senna bowed his head humbly, like a loyal minister.
At the moment, the young count could not see his mood on his face. His indifferent eyes were like a lion waiting for hunting, looking for the weakness of his prey, waiting for its lax moment.
Lu Wen got up from his chair and looked around the aristocrats who were still trembling: ”your timely arrival made us defeat the rebellious mob and achieve a valuable victory!”
The nobles who were still very nervous finally breathed a sigh of relief, and their stiff faces showed a false flattery, catering to the young count.
”But before that, we must first end the riot and bring the real culprits behind us to justice.” the count turned his words: ”otherwise, we will be sorry for those soldiers who died in vain. We must not let those traitors go unpunished while we are still crying for the dead!”
”For this reason, I want you to meet someone you all know.” the expressionless Lu Wen looked back and nodded to the wizard adviser behind him: ”bring him and let all adults meet.”
Lauren saluted slightly, smiled at the corners of her mouth and walked to the room on the side of the hall. His eyes stared at the door, and even Barry Senna couldn't help looking.
When the man led by the black haired wizard came out from behind the door, the old man who could still keep calm widened his eyes in shock.
Will Senna?!
The attendant like a living dead man walked into the hall step by step. His pupils were dull and his face was waxy yellow. His slightly open lips trembled and could not be closed. His staggering steps seemed to fall to the ground at any time.
What the hell is going on? What happened last night?! The panicked old man kept glancing back and forth on will and ruwen's faces, hoping to find some hidden clues.
Even will's death wouldn't shock Barry like this!
