Chapter 522 Showdown

"The place you're talking about is Texas, right?"

A hint of longing flashed in Lavinia's eyes, but it disappeared immediately: "It's enough to have Potter here. Rather than going to Texas, I want to stay in Turin and do my best to make this place a better place." The world is getting better.”

She paused slightly and said with some regret: "Just listening to your description, I know that Texas is a good place, wild, but full of vitality. It's different here, it's like a tomb that has been covered in dust for hundreds of years. Full of staleness.”

Lothar touched the rough wall with a match and lit a cigarette: "No, it's actually another world, similar to the Middle Ages six hundred years ago."

"another world?"

Lothar took a deep breath and continued: "Nia, have you heard about yesterday's giant ship?"

"The Tower of Babel that travels through time?"

"Yes, it's real."

Lavinia was in disbelief: "Is everything you said true?"

"What do you think?"

She took a deep breath and seemed to be digesting the breaking news that Lothar said casually. After a long time, she said: "How many secrets have you hidden that you haven't told?"

There was a hint of guilt on Lothar's face: "Sorry, there may be more, but if the time is right, I will tell you everything."

"I have to think about it for a while."

After Lavinia finished speaking, she was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked: "Losa, are you helping me so that I can leave with you?"

"That's true, but not entirely." Lothar said slowly, "Nia, you are a very good girl, upright, kind, and principled. From the first time I heard about your deeds, I felt that you were not suitable. here."

"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment."

She tried her best to smile: "Now that I think about it, the disappearance of Ms. Jeanne must also be related to the Tower of Babel, right?"

"Yes."

"To be honest, I feel quite honored."

Lothar whispered: "Don't blame me for not being pure when I first approached you."

Lavinia shook her head: "It's much more pure than if you want me to give you a wolf cub. Lothar, although we have only known each other for a short time, you are indeed a very reliable friend. I will take it seriously." I’ll consider your proposal.”

"Well, let's go back to Turin first. I have to report this matter to the lady. The lady probably won't object, but there is a high probability that I won't be able to get much help from her."

Valentina's dissatisfaction with the Yaksi family is not a secret. This is also the reason why many conservatives in Saluzzo are unwilling to let her take over the family. This may very well bring disaster to them.

At the beginning, Basilicata, the left-behind force in the South Apennine Peninsula, was not weak at all. At least it was a force of the Sassari family's level, otherwise it would be impossible to continue to control that territory.

But overnight, it was eaten by wolves, and not even the dregs were left.

All Basilicata's properties have been taken over by the small vassal families that originally belonged to Basilicata. This can be regarded as an alternative kind of investment certificate.

The Sassari family was nothing.

But behind the Sassari family stood the Yaksi family.

This is also the reason why many high-ranking wolf clans are increasingly dissatisfied with the Yaxi family.

We agreed to take charge of the Two Sicilies together, but now a dog from your Yaksi family is stepping on the head of our superior wolf clan. Who is the superior?

But the Yaxi family also has its own reasons. Look, as long as you follow me, even the quota of the upper wolf clan, which has almost never changed since ancient times, is not unchangeable.

The more arrogant they become, the more and more small families will stand behind the Yaksi family, and the vassals that should belong to the other high-ranking wolf clans will become the tools for the Yaksi family to control the entire Apennine Peninsula.

Can't talk about who is right and who is wrong.

At the very least, Lothar agrees with the idea of ​​the Yaksi family uniting all wolf clans.

Apennines, a piece of loose sand, as shattered as the Holy Roman Empire, was destined to have no way out.

afternoon.

Lothar returned to his mansion in Turin, dusty with travel.

Valentina did not leave, but sat cross-legged in the courtyard, meditating silently. A wooden sword was placed across her knees. When she heard the movement, she opened her eyes, and her sharp eyes made Lothar straight. Hairy.

He sneered and said, "Miss."

Valentina sneered: "You went out with the little girl from Bologna early in the morning?"    "Well, do her a little favor."

Valentina frowned, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about you, just go in quickly and don't disturb my practice."

"Something happened"

"Speak directly if you have anything to say."

Lothar no longer hesitated and told Lavinia's story at once.

"This little girl is really cute."

Valentina's expression was a little complicated: "I didn't expect that the Bologna family, which is regarded as a business heirloom and smells like copper, could produce such a courageous girl."

"But her teacher is really unreliable."

Valentina United thought sarcastically: "I don't think his teacher has ever wanted to rely on Lavinia's family background to start a wolf clan civil strife."

"Before he died, he was probably still thinking, let these damn wolf cubs fight, beat them until their heads were bloody and the sky was dark. It would be best to let the emperor of France or Habsburg end and end it. This chaos.”

Valentina sneered.

"Well, since you have decided to help with this, you must also know that you should participate as an individual. Logically speaking, you cannot even use the power of the family to use a single silver coin, but who would let the Sassari family do this? It’s annoying.”

"Go ahead and do what you gotta do, and if the time comes, I guarantee you Saluzzo will be the straw that breaks the camel's back."

Lothar smiled and responded: "I understand."

Valentina's meaning is obvious. Once something goes wrong with the Sassari family, she will definitely add insult to injury immediately, but only if Lothar and Lavinia can do this.

"Losa, before we leave, how about I teach you a move?"

"what?"

"Family secrets, the hand that strangles the throat."

Lothar was quite excited at first, but when she heard this, she was immediately disappointed: "Ah, thank you, miss, but I will always do it."

Valentina couldn't help but spat: "Damn it, how much have you hidden without showing it?"

Lothar felt a little ashamed and said, "I'm sorry, miss, I didn't mean to hide it."

"Okay, we are all members of our own family, so we are not talking about this. In short, go ahead and make full use of your strength. You are mine. You are not allowed to hide your strength anymore in the future. Make a good name for yourself. "

Lothar joked: "For example, Bloody Hand Butcher, Milan Ripper, Rainy Night Crazy Wolf?"

To be honest, he really felt that the nicknames of the wolf clan bosses were very tacky and rubbish. Rippers and bloodthirsty wolves, even in non-mainstream eras, are the most vulgar types.

"The last Ripper died in Texas. If you are good enough, it is not impossible to seize this title."

"Forget it, it's too ugly."

Valentina was a little surprised. She felt that the name Ripper was quite domineering, so why did it sound so unpleasant.

"Strange guy."

Lothar waved her hand: "I'm leaving, miss."

"Go and come back alive."

"I will."

Saying goodbye to Valentina, Lothar walked out of the door.

Elamo came up with the horse, handed him the reins, and asked, "Are you leaving now?"

"Ah."

"I thought we would be working together for a long time."

"Don't worry, I will come back alive."

Lothar sighed. It would not be a good thing for Elamo to follow him. Sooner or later, he would leave one day, and this would certainly not be far away.
