Chapter 36 The Earl of the River's Plan to Kill Six Birds with One Stone
Just when Sean had just returned to his residence, the Earl of Rivers was sitting in his study.

His body collapsed into the soft brown leather sofa, and the swaying candlelight shone on half of his body as if covering him with a layer of golden light.

The Earl of Rivers held two letters in his hand, and looked at Lucas sitting in front of him with a playful expression.

At this time, Lucas no longer had the unrestrained unrestrainedness on the dance floor just now, and he asked with a serious expression: "My lord, what is written on it?"

"The first letter is from Joshua."

The Earl of the River stood up, put the letter on the flame of the candle, and burned it. (This Joshua is the pastor Joshua whom Sean saw when he first entered the Church of the Holy Light of John, and is the assistant of Bishop Benjamin.)
But the smell of burning parchment was too strong, Earl River couldn't help but frowned.

After the letter was completely burned, Earl River said:

"Joshua said in the letter that the Holy Light Church in Lane is now divided into two factions.

One of the factions wanted to contact the Cardinal of the Anjou Kingdom to overthrow the Grand Duke Ryan and let Xiao En sit on the throne of the Grand Duke Ryan and become a puppet Grand Duke;
The other faction wants to give up on Xiao En, only preaching, and no longer formally confront the Grand Duke.

The struggle within the Church of the Holy Light is also fierce! "

"Which faction does Bishop Benjamin belong to?" Lucas asked.

"This old guy belongs to the surrender faction. Sean visited him in church today. He decided to abandon Sean directly, and forbid his paladins, priests, and mercenaries to have any contact with Sean." The Earl of Rivers smiled contemptuously. said with a smile.

"That old guy Benjamin has always been very short-sighted. If it were you, Earl, you would be inclined to promote Sean to the throne of the Grand Duke, right?" Lucas said.

"exactly."

The Earl of Rivers sat back on the sofa again, and continued: "This morning before I went to sleep, I also had the idea of ​​supporting Sean, so I specifically asked William to secretly disclose to Sean the flame cross mercenary group with the best character.

But now, I have changed my mind! "

"Oh? What do you think now?" Lucas asked.

"This starts with another letter. Here, take a look at what is written on it."

Earl River handed the unburned letter to Lucas, poured himself a cup of coffee, and took a sip.

Lucas took a look at the letter handed to him by the Earl of the River, and his eyes suddenly changed.

"The last time His Royal Highness Daniel wanted to kill His Royal Highness Sean, this time His Royal Highness Robert entrusted you to kill His Highness Sean, this...this." Lucas didn't know what to say. (Daniel Violet is Sean's second brother and Robert Violet is Sean's third brother.)
"Robert is a little smarter than Daniel, Robert wants us to kill Sean, but we need to get conclusive evidence that Daniel did it.

Simply put:
First, he wanted Sean dead;
Second, he wanted to put the blame on Daniel. "

"I think we should not do it. After all, Sean is within our jurisdiction. No matter how he died, we can't escape the responsibility." Lucas began to retreat.

But before he could finish speaking, the Earl of River interrupted him directly: "Look at the rewards they give first."

Lucas was startled, and looked towards the bottom of the letter. After a while, his breathing became heavy:

"Huh, huh, a magic core of a sky-level high-ranking fire-type monster?!"

Lucas' hand holding the letter trembled slightly, and flames were about to burst out of his eyes.

"I'm excited!" Earl He smiled and said, "With this magic core, I think you will be promoted to the Sky Rank soon, right?"

"That's right, I wasn't sure at first, but with this magic core, I'm [-]% sure that I'll be promoted to the sky rank in the near future!"

Lucas said firmly, his clenched hands almost crushed the parchment letter into powder.

"No, I still need this letter." Earl He hurried forward to snatch the letter back.

"When you break through the sky level, I will be able to become the second Marquis of the Principality of Ryan.

When I marry Vivian to Robert, we will have the capital to compete with that old guy Brandon Hill. "(Vivian is the second daughter of Earl River, and his direct heir Jessica is the eldest daughter.)
"Your Earl is wise, I will definitely live up to your expectations and rise to the sky rank as soon as possible!" Lucas said gratefully.

"You don't need to thank me. Although you are the illegitimate son of my father, you are also my half-brother. After you advance to the next level, I will restore Hehe's surname for you."

"It's really great, I've been waiting for a day for a long time!" Lucas was extremely excited.

"So when are we going to kill Sean? Or should I go now?"

"Are you stupid?" Earl River glared at Lucas: "You don't need to worry about this matter, tomorrow I will send your son Lucio to lead the army to help Xiao En wipe out the gnolls in River Beach Town.

After he came back, the old guy Xavier Mill, the lord of Water Pine Town, was probably dead as well.

After the old guy Viscount Mill is dead, I will let Jessica lure the stupid Brody Mill to attack Riverside Town, and then I will send out the killer.

The killer killed Sean, and I will arrest Brody on the charge of 'killing a direct descendant of the royal family'. By then, the two territories of River Beach Town and Shuipong Town will be mine! "

"Wonderful! No wonder you let Jessica stir up the conflict between Brody Mill and His Royal Highness Sean today. It turns out that you have already laid the groundwork for the future.

Hetan Town, Shuisong Town, the magic core of the upper-ranked monsters in the sky, the title of marquis, four birds with one stone, there is no more perfect plan than this! "

Lucas looked at the earl of the river with eyes filled with admiration. If it was him, he would never have come up with such a perfect plan!
"What you have to do now is to adjust your state, and when the magic core arrives, you can prepare to break through."

Earl River also yawned as he spoke, "It's getting late, you should go back to sleep. During this period of abstinence before the breakthrough, stop fooling around with those noble ladies."

"Definitely! Definitely!" After Lucas finished speaking, he bid farewell to the Earl of Rivers and left the Earl's Castle.

After Lucas left, the earl of the river murmured to himself: "Actually, it kills five birds with one stone. Hetan Town, Water Pine Town, Sky Rank Demon Core, Marquis Title, and a Sky Rank Warrior...

No, I missed one more thing, and Wen Desor, who is proficient in playing, can barely kill six birds with one stone!

Can create such a perfect plan, no one in this world is greater than me! "
