Stormwind Wizard God-Chapter 159: Nobles

Thousands of meters above the sea west of Stormwind City, Lothar and his team of griffin riders were flying at high speed following Duke's griffins.

"Is the news true?"

"When my Naga passed the news to me, I immediately informed you and His Majesty Llane. We have to hurry, otherwise we will only be collecting the bodies of those guys." freēwēbηovel.c૦m

When he heard Duke running over to say that the noble fleet was under attack, for a moment, Lothar instinctively suspected that it was Duke who was behind it.

It was simple. As a new noble in Stormwind Kingdom, Duke had always been at odds with the traditional nobles. Even the Brando family, who had a direct conflict with Duke, had never shown any sign of reconciliation in any formal occasion.

Even if someone appears to be insincere and wants to stab you a thousand times in the back and insert needles into each of your fingers, the nobleman in front of others will still maintain his elegance and grace.

If Lothar did not have the blood of Emperor Thoradin and the friendship of Llane as amulets, perhaps Lothar himself would have been killed in some dark corner of Stormwind City and his body would have rotted away.

Duke... Although Lothar trusted him, he could never see through Duke.

At a time when the frontal battle was so tense, Duke had no need to deceive him and Llane and fabricate an attack on the nobles to divert him.

Lothar had no choice but to save these nobles. After all, in all human kingdoms, nobles are regarded as the cornerstone of the country. There is even a saying in the upper class of many kingdoms: "The useless lowly people can die, as long as there are wise and brave nobles, even if the country is destroyed, it can be revived again."

Lothar didn't want to save him, but he had to.

Anduin and Duke are the only cards that Llane can play since he lacks a navy.

"Duke, aren't your Nagas escorting the fleet?"

"Come on, I only have over a hundred Nagas and a few thousand trash Murlocs. Please, this Road is nearly 1,000 nautical miles! How much territory do you expect to cover? But I asked them to go. But looking at the schedule, we'll get there first."

The attack on the noble fleet was indeed a blind spot in the thinking of him and all the high-ranking officials of the Stormwind. It was not so much a blind spot as it was that the orcs' offensive was too powerful and attracted all their attention.

Just by imagining it, it would be abnormal for such a weak guard, loaded with thousands of years of wealth from the noble families, not to attract the attention of pirates, right?

Lothar stopped talking and followed Duke silently with more than 30 griffin riders.

Duke really didn't take any detours and went almost straight to the scene.

That was an hour after the Bloodsail Pirates went to war with the noble fleet.

The situation on the scene was so chaotic that Lothar couldn't figure out what was going on.

More than twenty bloodsail pirate ships surrounded the battle group in the middle and did not dare to approach. In the battle group, almost every two bloodsail pirate ships sandwiched a warship of the Stormwind and launched a hand-to-hand battle.

The ships on the periphery were like chicken ribs, which were tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away. They dared neither fire their cannons nor send pirates to rescue their own ships.

Because every warship was caught in a melee, the protagonists of the melee were not the nobles' private soldiers, nor the Bloodsail Pirates, nor the Nagas and Murlocs, but demons emitting scorching heat all over their bodies.

After circling the griffin in the sky for half a circle, Lothar's face turned pale.

If it was the Bloodsail Pirates who released the demons to attack the nobles of Stormwind Kingdom, Lothar would jump down without saying a word to enforce justice.

It is obvious that the ones being slaughtered now are the Bloodsail Pirates.

The blue-skinned, burly demon guards were extremely dazzling in the sun. They wielded huge axes and, with their outstanding fighting talents, laughed wildly on the shaking ship and wantonly killed the Bloodsail Pirates whose morale had collapsed.

The scene was like a butcher holding a bloody knife and chasing a fat pig that was huddled in a pigsty with nowhere to escape. The death of the pig was only a matter of time.

So, the demons were released by the nobles?

However, when Lothar saw many noble private soldiers and corpses lying on the deck, he knew that things were not that simple.

At this moment, Duke couldn't help sneering in his heart.

right!

The current situation was directed by him!

He spent three months asking Makaro to secretly collect civilians' opinions on the nobles of Stormwind and verify them one by one. After obtaining a large amount of evidence of the nobles' crimes, he made a death list.

Of course, Fam Brando and his family were at the top of his kill list, followed by the Brando family's allies.

As a time traveler, Duke knew very well the nature of the nobles and what these greedy, cowardly, and money-hungry guys would do when their lives were threatened.

Duke has been waiting for this day for a long time.

After the Dark Portal was opened, he had long ago contacted the Bloodsail Pirates in the southern part of Stranglethorn Vale through covert means, and as an ambitious noble steward who wanted to take a piece of the pie, he informed them how the nobles would transport their thousand-year-old wealth.

Duke had also thought about what would happen if he implicated the Stormwind Navy. At that moment, Duke hesitated, as he did not want to kill a good person by mistake.

But God gave Duke another great opportunity.

They were a group of nobles rescued by Windsor from Karazhan.

Baron Lavroud Luger

Count Crispin Ferrens

Lady Dorothy Millsdip

Countess Catriona Warnindi

...

Duke is familiar with each of these guys.

Why?

Because these guys were originally sub-bosses under the second boss, the butler Moroes, in the Karazhan dungeon of the "World of Warcraft" game!

In Duke's understanding, when he saw these guys, they were already undead. For example, Rafe Druger could use the Paladin's Sanction skill. He should be the father of Jules Druger, the deputy mayor of Night Town in the Duskwood in the future...

Duke knew about this as soon as he came out of Karazhan. He really couldn't believe that these guys who were supposed to be one of the bosses would escape unscathed from Karazhan, which was full of demons.

Duke took the opportunity to get close to several of them, just like when Duke used the system elves to find that there was something wrong with Medivh who was possessed by Sargeras.

Duke almost burst out laughing when he saw the boss templates of these guys in his retina, with the word "devil" labeled on them.

That's right, these demons are part of Duke's insurance. They can ensure that even if there is a great detective who is so powerful that he finds evidence of his collusion with the Bloodsail Pirates, Llane will not blame him for it.

The demons were brought in by the nobles themselves.

Who can you blame if you let a wolf into your house?

Perhaps, the more this is the case, the more Stormwind wants to cover up the disaster of "most of the kingdom's nobles are demons."

After all, perhaps this was a murder that was once as treading on thin ice as it could be, and if one link went wrong, the reputation that Duke had worked so hard to build would no longer exist.

But once Duke carries out the "Perfect Murder" to the end, he will be able to create a perfect ending that is beneficial to the entire kingdom and even all of humanity. Once the goal is achieved, there will be no need to reveal the truth of this murder.
