Pirate King: Unparalleled<

Chapter 24 Conspiracy

Early this morning, Earl Yorick sent his servants to pack his numerous luggage, and hired some people who worked hard to make a living. After carrying all his numerous gifts to the carriage, Earl Yorick got into his carriage. Luxurious carriage.

They drove towards the city gate in a swaggering manner. The entire carriage team was led by Earl Yorick's loyal butler. After the carriage team drove out of the city gate, it kept heading west, without looking back towards the Earl. The fiefdom "Stokol" is advancing, and it only takes two days for Yorick and the others to return to their own territory.

Earl Yorick gently opened the curtains on the car window and stretched out his head to look at the huge city gate of the Royal Capital that was getting further away. After a long time, he reluctantly raised his head until the shadow of the Royal Capital could no longer be seen. Shrank back.

"Yorick secretly thought in his heart that in a few months, the entire royal capital, including the entire Kingdom of Ferelden, will become his possession. At that time, he will return to the royal capital again. Then sit on the throne, put a crown on yourself, and become the king of this country. Anyone who resists him should be hanged."

Thinking of this, Yorick gently picked up the top-quality wine placed on the wooden table in the center of the carriage with his right hand, closed his eyes, put the wine glass in his hand and shook it regularly, with every regular movement of his hand. Shake it, and the wine glass will exude a charming aroma of wine.

Earl Yorick put the wine glass to his mouth and took a deep breath of the wine. Then he took a small sip intoxicatedly and then opened his eyes. He raised his head and looked at the shadow of the soft stool on the opposite side of the carriage. A figure said calmly: "Before leaving the capital, I have an important task that I want to give you to do personally. If you complete it, I will not only give you a generous and high bounty, I will also I will also give you a nice word to the captain of the "White Rhino Pirates"."

"How about Ibami, are you willing to accept my mission?"

Ibami, who was hidden in the shadows opposite Count Yorick, first leaned forward, revealing his strangely pale and bloodless face. He opened his bloodshot eyes and grinned. He chuckled and said: "My lord, what kind of dangerous mission are you going to give me? Is it worthy of such an attractive price? This makes me excited and a little scared."

Earl Yorick's body trembled slightly when he listened to Ibami's strangely magnetic voice. Although he had heard him talk to him in this strange voice so many times, he still had some thoughts in his heart. Nervous and scared.

He collected his thoughts for a moment, stabilized his body and stopped shaking, looked into his eyes and said calmly: "The content of the task I want to give you is to assassinate the Kingdom of Ferelden. The king of "Lancelot d'Frey", how about Ibami, are you willing to accept this high-risk, high-reward mission?"

When Ibami heard the contents of Yorick's appalling mission, his expression remained unchanged, as if assassinating a king was no different from assassinating an ordinary person. He smiled softly and said: "My lord, assassinate." Although it may be a little difficult for me to be the king of a kingdom, it is not a particularly big problem, but the price you offered is far from enough."

"This time I am here to help you solve some minor problems under the orders of the White Rhino Pirates and Captain "Weird Bill", such as assassinating Finance Minister Blut who may threaten the status of you and other nobles. , and temporarily act as your guard, but you have to figure one thing out."

Ibami looked at Yorick with his bloodshot eyes. He smiled with a cold voice and said, "I'm not your eagle dog that you hire with money to look after your home. I let you do whatever you want." As long as you can be dispatched, you must know one thing in your heart, you and I are equals, there is no superior-subordinate relationship."

"No one except Mr. "Bill" can command me, not even the deputy captain "Arnold the Ripper".

Yorick heard Ibami's threatening words. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He took out the embroidered silk scarf on his chest and wiped the sweat. Unable to calm down anymore, he smiled charmingly. Said: "Ibami, look at what you said. How dare I order you? You may have misunderstood what I meant. I didn't mean to order you. I meant to ask you if you have any questions." I have no interest in assassinating the king of this kingdom."

Yorick said to Ibami in his seductive voice: "Although most of the nobles in the country headed by me have officially formed an alliance with the "White Rhino Pirates" and have agreed on the next We will launch a general offensive against this country in the coming months and cooperate internally and externally. There shouldn’t be much problem in taking over this country by then.”

"But think about it, if Ibami assassinates the king and leaves the army in the Kingdom of Ferelden leaderless, then we can take over the country without any effort, and we don't have to waste a single soldier. Soldier, by then I believe Mr. Wei Bill will also be impressed by you. By then he will definitely value you more and may let you occupy a more important position. Even being the deputy captain is not impossible, what do you think? "

Ibami, who was hidden in the shadow of the carriage, thought quietly and didn't speak for a long time. This made Yorick become a little nervous again, and the sweat that had just disappeared from his body began to drip down again. He quickly took out the embroidered silk scarf and wiped the sweat from his body, feeling very nervous and uneasy.

After a long silence, just after Yorick could no longer bear the oppression of this silence, Ibami finally spoke. This time Ibami completely exposed his face and body. Under the light.

He looked at Yorick who was sweating coldly and said softly: "Your suggestion seems to make some sense, Lord Earl. I suddenly have some interest and I am willing to accept this task."

Ibami looked at Yorick and asked: "However, I don't think Lord Yorick will let me go alone to that strange palace with ten posts and hundreds of posts to assassinate His Majesty the King. Although I am very confident in my assassination skills, no matter how confident I am, I will never be stupid enough to go alone to a heavily guarded palace to assassinate a king who is heavily guarded."

After hearing that Ibami was willing to accept this task, Yorick breathed a heavy sigh of relief. When he heard Ibami's question in the second half of the sentence, Yorick laughed loudly and said: "Don't worry, I'm Yoli Katsuya is not a stupid person. Of course I will not let you go to a strange palace alone to assassinate the king. The success rate is very slim, even for Ibami, who has been known as the "Shadow Assassin" in the East China Sea for many years. For you, this is an impossible task without help."

Yorick stretched out his right hand and groped behind him. He took out a sheepskin map from behind and gently placed it on the table in front of him. He smiled at Ibami and said, "This sheepskin map is from the palace." The topographic map records the patrol teams in the palace on the surface, as well as the secret sentries hidden in the dark. Among the patrol teams in the palace, there is a team that I placed in it many years ago. They will Please rest assured that I will cooperate with you unconditionally.”

After finishing speaking, Yorick looked at Ibami with a smile and asked: "How is it, Lord Ibami, do you have confidence now?"

Ibami, who was studying the map carefully, heard Yorick's inquiry. He responded with the brightest smile he could muster: "Of course, for your map and yours, Lord Count. I am very satisfied with the plan I conceived and I don’t have any problems.”

Ibami looked at Yorick as if he was a different person. He took the initiative to take a wine glass and took the top-quality wine and poured it gently for Yorick and himself, and then handed it to Yorick. Ke, smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, Lord Count, please don't take what Ibami just said to your heart. In order to express my offense to you, Ibami punished himself with three cups of wine." ".

After saying that, Ibami drank up the wine in the glass in one breath, then took the wine and poured it on. After repeating this three times, Ibami filled the glass with wine again.

Ibami gently raised the wine glass in his hand, smiled strangely at Yorick and said, "Come, Lord Earl, let us have a drink to celebrate the success of our plan in advance."

Hearing Ibami's words, Yorick also quickly raised his wine glass. On the surface, he smiled and drank the wine in the glass with a gentle touch of Ibami, but in his heart he cursed Ibami's dissatisfaction. He knew the goods and regarded this sky-high price of wine worth one hundred thousand berries as a crazy cow drink of low-quality rum worth tens of berries, but he did not dare to show this openly.

After Ibami drank up the wine in the glass, he gently placed the glass on the table. He looked at Yorick, and then asked in his strange and magnetic questioning voice: "Your Majesty, Earl, There is still a question in my mind."

"When I sneak into the palace, how can I tell which patrol team is the crony you installed? How should he know that I was sent by you instead of treating me as someone sent by other forces? The assassin is asking for a reward for being caught."

Hearing Ibami's inquiry, Yorick cursed in his heart. He was indeed the "Shadow Assassin" Ibami who was famous in the East China Sea and had never failed to assassinate many people. With this caution, he would He will be a difficult opponent, and you must find an opportunity to kill him in the future.

Thinking of this, Yorick took out a beautifully shaped whistle from his arms and handed it to him, then smiled at Ibami and said: "It's very simple. After you sneak into the palace, you first lurk in the dark, Just take out this special whistle and gently blow three long and two short sounds. This is the agreed secret signal, and the sound of the whistle is so small that only people with professional training can hear it."

Ibami observed the whistle carefully for a while. After listening to Yorick's explanation, he raised his glass again and smiled: "I don't have any questions anymore. Let's drink another drink to celebrate the upcoming victory." ".

Earl Yorick also raised his wine glass, and the two of them touched it gently and drank up the wine in large gulps. When Yorick put down the wine glass, Ibami, who was sitting opposite him, had long since disappeared.

"You rude pirates, when I take control of this country's army and become the only king in this country, I will definitely teach you how to maintain proper humility in front of a noble noble. ".

"Yorick thought secretly."
