The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 875
Chapter 875
Helden is really unlucky. He originally thought that he would inherit the title of his father and become the head of the Octopus family. Then his life would surely rise to the top step by step. The Duke of the Bay is just his possession, and he The vision should be more ambitious, not just in the river bay area.
But his road to the top has just taken a step, and he has encountered a major setback. Not only did the Octopod family’s fleet that had been managed for many years been destroyed, but also he himself was assassinated, if it weren’t for his father. He left him a stand-in early, for fear that he was already dead.
“Master Helden, the assassin is dead.” The chief guard is also very nervous about this sudden situation.
He came over in a hurry to report the situation, but it was a fierce battle just now, he mobilized a large number of manpower to complete the encirclement and suppression of the killer.
“What? Already dead? Didn’t you say that you want to stay alive, you must figure out who wants me to die?” Helden was furious, and the recent things have been more unpleasant, even so. Something, his subordinates can’t handle it.
“This… my lord, the assassin prepared the poison in advance, and after we surrounded them, they were poisoned and killed.” The chief guard said tremblingly. He knew Helden’s temper and knew that the latter was at this time. Very indignant.
“You are really a bunch of rubbish, you actually let the killer die, damn…Go ahead and get out!” Helden copied the bottle and slammed it towards the chief guard, he yelled angrily. The result was It made him very dissatisfied.
At this moment, another hurried person came in outside the door. It was his administrative officer Lille who came in, a shrewd and capable young man.
“My lord, I heard that you were assassinated just now. Are you okay?” Lille asked nervously about Helden’s condition.
“Do you think I look like something is going on? What are you doing here?” Helden asked Lille, staring at him.
“My lord, it’s like this. I just got news from River Bay…” Lille lowered his voice and said in Helden’s ear.
“What are you talking about? You want to deprive me of my knighthood? Our octopus family’s knighthood was bestowed by the king more than a hundred years ago. What qualifications does she have to deprive us of our knighthood?” Heilden was furious, and he took over his father’s knighthood. It didn’t take long before the title was taken away from him.
This is something he can’t accept anyway.
“The reason they gave was ordered by His Majesty the King.” Lille whispered.
“Your Majesty? This is even more a joke. His Majesty has not appeared in public for nearly a year. It is unclear whether he is alive or dead. He actually cares about this kind of thing? His two sons. It doesn’t stop!” Helden didn’t believe this.
“But my lord, just because His Majesty the King did not show up, the so-called deprivation of the title is true or false. No one can say that it is not good.” Lille said anxiously.
“What about the royal capital? His Royal Highness wrote me a secret letter before and asked me to send troops. I sent troops as he said, but almost didn’t get rid of our Octopus family’s wealth. Now it’s his turn. To respond to my sincerity, what is his attitude?”
“My lord, because of the fiasco of the Battle of River Bay, His Royal Highness William, who had received a lot of support, has now encountered a crisis of confidence again. Now many ministers in the Royal Capital have fallen to His Highness Henry’s camp. His Royal Highness William is hard to protect himself.”
“He can’t protect himself, so he will abandon me, don’t he plan to protect me?” Helden asked in a deep voice.
“This is also something that can’t be helped, so the royal capital side can’t count on it, and according to reliable sources, River Bay City will soon use troops against us!” Lille knew the seriousness of the situation, so he would be here. Find Helden the first time to report the situation to him.
“Are they actually going to crusade us? Damn… But our Octopus family can exist for so many years, and it can’t be moved by just talking. What about the Osprey family? They have always been friendly with us, and they will definitely send troops to help us, right?” Helden immediately thought of his allies.
“My lord, the Osprey family has already issued a voice earlier, publicly condemning our betrayal of the river bay area!” Lille said helplessly.
“What? The Osprey family guys, have they forgotten who helped them when they were in the hardest time?” Helden was shocked.
“My lord, now and then, the people who were close to our family in the past can’t wait to get rid of our relationship with us. Our strength has been hit hard, and the king doesn’t plan to cooperate with us anymore. The killer, I’m afraid it is…” Lille stopped talking.
“Do you mean that the people sent by the royal capital wanted to kill me? Damn… I didn’t expect our Octopus family to become so embarrassed one day!” Haierden said resentfully.
“This is no way, so you’d better be prepared, sir.” Lille suggested.
“Prepare? What preparation?”
“The army of River Bay City will soon attack. With our current strength, it is difficult to resist, so we might as well retreat to the sea.”
“What? Do you mean you want me to go back to the sea and become a pirate?” Helden reacted greatly to this.
Helden has always regarded himself as a nobleman. Although the Octopus family was made by pirates, the Octopus family tried their best to erase that disgraceful history.
When the octopus family was in full swing, no one dared to feel bad about pirates. At most, there were only a few words in private. But now with the death of Dohama, the entire octopus family is in ruins.
Now that it fell into the hands of Helden, it was even more horrible, to the point where he was forced to flee. This was undoubtedly a major blow to Helden’s self-esteem.
“My lord, this is a helpless choice for the octopus family to survive. Although this choice is difficult, as the owner of the family, you must consider the interests of the family and not let the family be destroyed in your hands.” Lille solemnly Said.
If this sentence was spoken by others, then Helden would definitely not take it seriously, and even reprimand him, but this sentence was indeed from Lille’s mouth.
Lille was the military adviser his father had left for him, and asked him to listen to Lille’s advice in everything.
This makes Helden have to seriously consider this issue.
“After our octopus family has prospered for more than 100 years, has it finally fallen to the point of returning to the sea again as a pirate?” Helden smiled bitterly. This change was too sudden for him. You should know that soon He had longed for his lofty ideals before.
Obviously, not long ago, he still had the chance to become the Duke of the River Bay or even enter the city of Zee, but after only more than a week before and after, he fell to this situation. The contrast is really too big. .
If this is an ordinary person, it is absolutely impossible to accept such a reality. In fact, it is difficult for Helden to accept it, but he has to accept it.
“I see, since this is the only choice for our Octopus family, let’s do it.” Helden sighed deeply, knowing that he had reached the point where he had no choice.
“Then my lord, I’ll go down and make arrangements now, and please prepare a little bit. I will leave at dawn tomorrow.” Lille nodded and said.
“What, leave at dawn? Is it so urgent?” Helden thought it was too hasty, he was not prepared at all, and he had so many things that he had to pack up in just one night, I’m afraid not. An easy thing.
“My lord, don’t you understand? At the same time we are talking, the fleet in River Bay is already being assembled. If I guess right, they will arrive at Old Port at noon tomorrow at most. If we don’t leave them one step ahead. If you do, do you think we still have a chance to leave?” Lille asked rhetorically.
“What did you say? Did they move so fast?” Helden was taken aback.
“This is of course, because Lord Messiah urgently needs to stabilize the situation in the river bay area. They need to use the toughest and thunderous means to deal with our octopus family, so that they can be shocked to others. We have a close relationship with our Octopus family, and let the secretive family learn a lesson, tell them who is the owner of the river bay area.” Lille said solemnly.
“Unexpectedly, our octopus family really fell to this point? Well, Lille, I understand, then I will pack things up, and we will set off tomorrow morning.” Helden sighed leisurely, this time Where is his aura before?
The moonlight outside the window was like water, he knew, no matter how beautiful the scenery here, this would be his last night in the old port.
Lille’s judgment was correct. In the Bay City, the fleet has been assembled. In the previous Bay City naval battle, the combined fleet suffered heavy losses, but the Bay Fleet has not yet participated in the battle. They still maintain a complete organization. With combat effectiveness.
Messiah and Du Lei bid farewell to Colonel Chedo who is in charge of commanding the fleet at the port. Colonel Chedo is a young and excellent commander with outstanding commanding talents. Whether it is Du Lei or Messiah, he is very relieved. The fleet was handed over to Colonel Chedo to command.
“Then I wish you all the best.” Messiah bid farewell to Colonel Chedo. At this time, the officer who was about 30 years old paid a military salute to the Messiah and returned to the warship.
The night is dim, the sea is calm and the waves are calm, and the full moon hanging on the sea level can be seen from a distance, which gives people a refreshing feeling.
In the sight of Du Lei and Messiah, the fleet soon sailed away.
“I hope Colonel Chedo will go well this time.” Messiah whispered after seeing the fleet go away.
“This time, although the old port can be calmed down and taken back to River Bay City for management, it may not be easy to completely eliminate the Octopus family.” Du Lei regained his gaze and said softly.
“Oh? What? Not easy? Why is this?” Messiah didn’t quite understand the meaning of Du Lei’s words.
“Because the octopus family has a long history and has existed for hundreds of years. It is said that they were descendants of the sea clan a long time ago, but they did not know what happened later, they became pirates, and they came to land because of speculation. He became a nobleman. The octopus family has been able to survive for more than a hundred years. It’s not without reason to this day. Although the current helm, Helden, has many shortcomings, the heritage of a family lies in the fact that it is not a certain One person, or a few people, can completely destroy the family, so I guess this time the Octopus family will decisively abandon the old port and escape on the sea. They were originally born as pirates, and they know the sea better than anyone else, so once Let them escape to the sea, I am afraid that there is no way to use them.” Although Du Lei is still in River Bay, the battle of the River Bay Fleet against the old port has not yet begun.
But he could already foresee what might happen in advance.
“What should we do, do we need to send more people to wipe out the Octopus family?” Messiah did not doubt the authenticity of what Du Lei said, she asked in surprise.
“It’s not necessary. In history, it’s not that no one has never thought of destroying the Octopus family, but no one has succeeded. It is said that they have a secret about the sea in their hands. In short… just ignore them for now, after After this blow, although the octopus family will not perish, they will definitely suffer a fatal blow. In this way, they will not be able to return to land again without decades of rest and rejuvenation and waiting for the opportunity. . “Du Lei shook his head, he didn’t intend to kill the Octopus family.
“Although I don’t understand too much, but Du Lei, if you say so, just do it.” Messiah nodded and said.
“The results of the Old Port’s battle will come in about three days. In these three days, Messiah, please prepare well.”
“Oh? Prepare? What can I do?” Messiah didn’t know what Du Lei’s words meant for a while.
“Of course I am going to Zezhi City.” Du Lei replied calmly.
“What? Du Lei, you mean we are going to Zezhi City? But didn’t Zezhi City hate us and want us to die?” Messiah was taken aback.
“They really wanted to kill you, but you are different now. After the octopus family is put down, the river bay area will be united in an unprecedented way, and taking advantage of the victory of the river bay sea battle, whether it is William or Henry, They don’t dare to do anything to you, and you are not going to Zezhi City alone.” Du Lei explained.
“Isn’t I alone? And…” Messiah questioned a little bit later.
“And me, and an army.” Du Lei calmly looked into the distance.
The sea is calm and the waves are calm, it’s really a quiet night!
