Release that Witch

45. Chapter 45 Conspiracy (on)

    When the moon began to sink, Gerald Wimbledon saw the looming outline of the Kingdom Capital wall in the night.

    After a few months, now I am finally back, he thought. The exhaustion of the long journey disappeared a lot, but he remained vigilant, grabbed his mount and signaled his deputy to explore the situation.

    If the plan has not changed, Scholar Ansger should have replaced the guards of the defending city with their own cronies, and put down the side door suspension bridge after the deputy signaled.

    He stared at the front with his eyes wide open, for fear that he would miss the faint fire.

    This waiting time is not long, Gerald feels that time is solidified. When the eyelids are sour and can’t hold on, he finally sees the flash from the distance – two below the wall, three above, and the plan The same. He took a sigh of relief and waved his people to move forward.

    In this way, he is only one step away from the throne.

    Gerald rode the horse through the side door of the wall and the deputy walked side by side with him.

    He followed more than 20 cavalry behind him. Everyone said nothing, pulling the reins and controlling the mount to move slowly.

    The wall material of Greycastle Kingdom Capital is taken from the Fallen Dragon Ridge, a taupe stone that glows dark red under the torch, as if it had been soaked in blood. The entire city wall was 20 feet wide. At that time, in order to build this wall, more than a thousand laborers, slaves, and Stonemason died on the construction site.

    The walls of the wall that the 10,000-strong army could not overcome were now easily crossed by themselves. Gerald thought that any loopholes started from the inside. Somehow, he remembered the new Holy City, a seemingly more magnificent and indestructible wall, will it be broken from the inside?

    “His Royal Highness, I am waiting for you for a long time.”Through the city gate, Scholar Ansger and the squad are waiting at the door. Seeing Gerald appear, Scholar quickly rolled over and squatted.

    Gerald put away the distracting thoughts, probably because he was too excited, and he couldn’t help thinking about it. “You did a good job, did the guards of the palace change?”

    “Go back to the temple, there is a surprise in the plan. I have already said that the silver hand Knight who is willing to work for you was transferred to the southern region three days ago. Now I have only had time to replace the guard of the palace.”

    Gerald frowned, which meant that he was impossible to bring these twenty people into the palace. The guards will not block themselves, but will not let so many fully armed people enter the royal family.

    “But, as long as the team members of the palace branched out to follow me, the rest kept the door, don’t let the outsider come in disturb me.” He hesitated for a moment and made up his mind, although the plan has changed, but the situation remains In control. The father’s personal guard will usually stay in the outer room for the night, as long as someone can hold them for a moment, he will be sure to put it under the sword.

    Entering the inner city, as if everything was back to the appearance of his departure. Even at night, he still recognizes every street. Here is his place, no doubt. Everyone jumped off the horse and walked quickly to the palace. When they arrived at the door, more than 20 people dispersed according to the new plan and lurked outside the palace. As Scholar Ansger puts it, the guard is a strange prince who is at night to Kingdom Capital, but when Gerald swindles that there is something behind him, he just opens the door and puts him inside.

    After all, he is the eldest son of King of Greycastle, the first heir to the jurisprudence.

    The prince and Scholar Ansger pass through the garden and the main hall, and the castle that goes further is the place where Wimbledon III lives. Scholar raised the torch in his hand and swayed from side to side. Immediately, the guards walked out from the dark and kneeled on one knee. “His Royal Highness, please come with me.”

    Gerald sucked his nose and he smelled a bloody smell.

    Didn’t it mean that all the guards in the palace were replaced? He looked at the guard by the fire, and he was indeed a familiar person—Knight of Earl who supported himself on the throne. This gave him a little peace of mind.

    “Why, did someone enter the castle?”

    “Back to the Highness, Your Majesty summoned the maid in the evening. When she came out, she saw our exchange,” the other party answered. “Please rest assured, we have already done it.”

    Handmaids My father hasn’t touched a woman for a long time—since her mother’s death. Gerald felt a little surprised, but now it wasn’t tangled in such a trivial matter. He nodded and didn’t say anything more. He followed the guard into the castle and the others followed.

    For Gerald, the castle can go from start to finish with eyes closed. He has lived here for more than twenty years, where there is a secret passage, and there are secret doors that are clear. However, the purpose of his trip was to convince his father to pass on the throne to himself. It is meaningless to sneak into the palace. He must solve the personal guard stationed outside, so that his father can fully understand his situation before he can sit down and talk about it seriously. The attribution of inheritance rights.

    If you can’t convince him…

    Gerald Wimbledon deep took a deep breath, reaching out to stop the crowd and pull out the bone hands behind the sword.

    The bronze gate at the end of the corridor is the only entrance to the palace. The door is the outer room. It is also the last line of defense before the palace. There are usually two or three personal guards. When you encounter an accident, you can rush into the palace for the first time. Your Majesty.

    Gerald first pushed the door open with a small slit, then slammed into the side, quickly slammed into the room, and raised the sword to make a face-lifting posture – but the outside room was quiet, and there was no one. At the same time, a strong bloody smell came out.

    There was a slight hunch in his heart, and he went directly to the palace.

    Then Gerald saw an unbelievable scene.

    Wimbledon III was sitting on the bed in his nightgown, leaning on the pillow on the upper body, the robes were open, and a hilt was inserted in the chest. The blood slid down the raised belly and soaked the quilt.

    Standing next to his father, he was his own brother, Timothy Wimbledon.

    “How……How come?Gerald is in the same place.

    “Like you, brother,” Timothy sighed. “I didn’t want to do this.”

    He clap his hands and quickly rushed into a group of armored warriors and surrounded First Prince. “This is a game. I wanted to finish the rules.” Brother, do you know? Third Sister, she didn’t plan to play this game from the beginning, of course…You too Otherwise, how can I hear about Scholar Ansger’s constellation prophecy and go to Kingdom Capital. Seriously, if you don’t come, I am really helpless. ”

    “Scholar!”

    He gritted his teeth and looked back. Scholar Ansger stepped back and said: “I didn’t lie to you, “Apocalypse is moving away from the blazing sun.” It means that the pathfinder has deviated from the right path, but it also has The meaning of corruption. ”

    Now Gerald is fully aware that from the beginning, he has fallen into a well-designed trap. The bloody smell at the gate of the castle is probably not left by the maid, and the words of the silver Knight being transferred are also. But what is most desperate for him is that he has taken care of him for more than a decade, and he taught him to learn literary and syllabic, and then chose Second Prince – just like his father.

    “Timothy Wimbledon! The same is the son, but he has devoted so much effort to you and divided the best territory for you. I didn’t expect you to bite him first! You are just Devil from hell! ”

    Timothy flashed a trace of anger in his eyes, but soon disappeared. “Do you really think so? Dear brother, if this trip fails to convince him to inherit the throne to you, would you really intend to stop here? Don’t lie to yourself. ”
