Werewolf wizard

Chapter 267: Meeting Duke Salonia Latin

After Su Nan greeted the Rost family, he repurchased a villa and a manor in the inner city of Stormwind.

In the evening of the same day, he learned of a piece of news.

The Stormwind Royal Family and the Stormwind Church, with the support of several high-ranking members of the royal family and the church, conducted a joint verification of King Barry and confirmed that the king was the real person and that his cognition was not a problem.

Old Frank secretly defected to the cultists, massacred all the priests in the Lavia Church, and slandered the king, so he was imprisoned in the Stormwind Church prison.

Because he was a high priest, he was not subject to the King's Court, but only to the Church Court. Therefore, how to deal with him will have to wait for internal discussions within the church in the future.

Inside the new manor villa, Su Nan tapped his fingers on the desk while collecting books from the Capital Library that had been moved into his study.

He also asked the intelligent brain to try to use the available information in this batch of books to accelerate the calculation of a new magic potion to enhance mental power.

The sudden change in the situation proved that the King Without Eyes had more arrangements in Stormwind than he had thought, and it was very likely that someone had already infiltrated the high levels of the Stormwind Royal Family or the Stormwind Church.

It's just that I don't know who it is.

But it's not a big problem. Anyway, with me here, the King Without Eyes shouldn't even think about completing the 'Gate' ritual in Stormwind.

Su Nan said, "I didn't expect that even with Old Frank's status, he couldn't change the current situation."

"Interesting."

Su Nan asked Wolf Three in the wolf pack effect whether he had discovered the wizard relics left by the Golden Wizard, but Wolf Three had not found anything yet.

Su Nan said to Robert, who was standing outside the door, "Robert, go and inform Warwick to prepare to go to the Rost family's manor."

This was after the inner city patrol officer encountered the fire at the villa where he lived yesterday, and Earl Rost invited him over.

…

Inside the Stormwind Castle's council hall, King Barry finished discussing the latest national policies with his ministers, as well as how to deal with the plundering Bulgars and the Nicomedia Empire, and then dismissed the ministers. Then, his pupils suddenly turned completely black, and then he laughed at the empty council hall.

"So, being a king in the mortal world is also a good thing."

"As long as you don't care about the opinions of the subjects, no matter how much power you have as a king, you can do whatever you want."

"Blind Monk, the King Without Eyes asked me to come and help. Who knew that in the past few nights, two of our strongholds have been destroyed one after another, and a large number of warlocks have been lost. If the 'Gate' hadn't already been opened, the warlocks lost in the past few days would have been enough to paralyze our Supreme Order. What exactly are you doing?"

"If I hadn't taken action to help you, even the position of this king that we occupy might have been lost."

The Blind Monk walked out from the corner of the council hall and said to him, "Executor of Death, I do accept your questioning of me."

"I didn't expect that at this time, a formal wizard who is hostile to us would enter Stormwind. I am stepping up the process, and I have strengthened the manpower in each of our strongholds in Stormwind."

King 'Barry' sneered, "Formal wizards are indeed troublesome, but even if a formal wizard enters the capital at this time, it won't affect the overall situation. Do you want me to take action? As long as I take action, death will come upon that formal wizard's head at any time."

The Blind Monk said in a low voice, "Not for the time being."

"If you take action, it will easily alarm those hidden Knights of God and Saints in the Stormwind Church. Although that Saint should have already fallen into the trap of our King, and is now in a state of serious injury, old and frail, unable to move."

"I will handle this matter properly."

The Blind Monk said, "I have already had my magic cube begin to gestate the Leviathan. That Leviathan is about to take shape. Moreover, a five-star warlock has already appeared by my side—equivalent to a formal wizard level warlock, and because warlocks restrain wizards, warlocks of the same level will definitely be stronger than wizards of the same level."

"This is the common sense that we have summed up from our past experience."

"My power has also begun to recover to a level equivalent to a first-ring wizard. Su Nan Peter is just taking advantage of some opportunities. Next, he will no longer be a threat."

Barry 'King' nodded helplessly. "Don't you believe in my power? Or don't you believe... that I am indeed standing on your side. Is it because of my past identity?"

"Hehe, I have long abandoned the Order God System."

"Forget it, we already have a great advantage. As long as I am still the king, I can mobilize many secular resources."

"I have already sent people to restrict that wizard's space for movement."

"Blind Monk, control the situation inside Stormwind again as soon as possible."

…

In the Rost family manor, Su Nan discovered that, in addition to himself, there were actually eleven barons and three earls gathered in this manor, and even Duke Salonia Latin was here.

Everyone was sitting around a table in the manor's reception room.

Everyone was preoccupied.

Duke Salonia Latin, seeing Su Nan and Earl Rost entering together, greeted Su Nan cordially, as if there had been no previous animosity with Su Nan, and nodded to Su Nan, saying, "Earl Peter is here too."

"That's great. The Peter family is a powerful family with real power in the central part of the Stormwind Kingdom, and even has the full support of Bishop Borgia of the Achaia pastoral area, as well as a powerful city like Maple Leaf City."

"Even the Bulgars have to give Earl Peter some face."

Su Nan could tell that Duke Salonia Latin was genuinely happy to see him.

This duke was an old man in his sixties, with anger and fatigue remaining in his eyes.

Probably recently, he was really exhausted by King Barry's antics, and he couldn't even understand all of King Barry's actions.

Su Nan nodded to the duke and the others and sat down. He didn't speak immediately because he wanted to first observe what the purpose of this secretly gathered high-ranking noble tea party was.

Duke Salonia Latin took the initiative to continue the topic before Su Nan came in, saying, "That brat, the king, has recently been investigating all the taxes and poll taxes in my territory for the past fifty-eight years, and even thinks that the height of the city walls in my family's garrison city exceeds a certain specification."

"He demanded that I demolish the city walls. I don't understand why he is so persistently provoking me. No matter how many steps I give him, he won't come down."

"Especially in this situation of internal and external troubles."

Earl Rost took up the conversation, saying, "The King even sent a commoner tax official to investigate some of my family's businesses, thinking some of my family's industries don't comply with the kingdom's laws. To be honest, some of those businesses really can't stand up to scrutiny, but everyone originally knew that those industries existed... even the King's own family isn't innocent of such things."

Many nobles also joined the topic, complaining that King Barry and his Hall of Council royal officials have recently been making things difficult for their families on some 'insignificant' matters.

Interestingly, Earl Tuval was also here.

When Su Nan came in, the three servants behind Earl Tuval, all wearing black sun-protective windbreakers, all looked at Su Nan.

For a moment, their pupils turned into the unique pupils of vampires.

Moreover, Su Nan noticed that these vampire servants all had wolfsbane in their bodies, and Earl Tuval had also become a vampire, and he also had wolfsbane in his body.

In other words, if he hadn't intervened, the Tuval family should have already been disintegrated in fact because the Earl had become a vampire, and they would have defected to the side of the King With Blind Eyes.

It seems that the vampire Ron's efficiency is not bad.

Earl Tuval looked at Su Nan, his throat bobbing. Su Nan felt that he originally attended this meeting with the intention of being an undercover agent, but now, it was not necessarily the case.

The special wolfsbane that he had given them would erupt as long as it was a moonlit night.

At that time, they would be in unbearable pain.

Su Nan looked at Earl Tuval and smiled, "Earl Tuval, how come you like wearing black sun-protective clothing, cloaks, and hoods when you go out recently?"

Earl Tuval lowered his head to Su Nan, not daring to look directly at Su Nan. "You're joking. It's just that the weather has been hot recently."

Duke Salonika Latin glanced at Su Nan and Earl Tuval in confusion. It was winter recently, and Stormwind Keep wasn't hot at all.

However, the Duke felt that there was no need to say anything more on this issue.

So he took the initiative to speak, "Everyone, I heard that the King is recently fighting with the Archbishop for power, and is also fighting with the Grand Chancellor [Cavendish Houston] who came from the Capital University. And he is also wary of us nobles. Only in this way can all his actions be explained."

"I suggest that everyone should unite to resist the King's tyranny."

Court Earl Houston immediately chimed in, "That's why I obeyed my father's orders and came to participate in this event. My father wants to launch a small-scale coup before King Barry convenes a national noble council."

"Completely strip the King of power and eliminate the treacherous villains around the King!"

"Now that we have the help of the Duke and Earl Peter, such powerful local nobles, I think our chances of success will be very high."

Although they are both Earls and Dukes, their inner meanings are completely different.

Su Nan and Duke Salonika Latin are both local nobles with real power, while Court Earl Houston is just a court honorary Earl title. He received some royal and national rewards because his father is the Grand Chancellor, and only has some scattered manors.

He is not even as good as some baron with real power.

The Rost family is also in this situation, only an honorary title after all.

However, the Tuval family is an exception. This family has always been a family with real power, and is one of the most powerful traditional noble forces in the royal capital, except for the Grand Chancellor [Cavendish Houston].

Hearing that they were going to launch a small-scale coup, Duke Salonika Latin's eyes flickered, and then he actually said, "I think this is a bit too much. I think we can use legitimate means to let the King clean up the villains around him himself."

Su Nan looked at Duke Salonika Latin, knowing why he refused. The reason is that this guy is still preparing to let the King become more unpopular, and he himself will directly and legally become the new King.

Was he too full to do nothing, wanting to actively join a conspiracy that had no meaning to him at this time?

He came here simply to say a few more bad things about the King.

Su Nan himself didn't want to get involved in this matter. "The Peter family will still remain neutral."

Duke Salonika Latin nodded in agreement to Su Nan, saying, "Earl Su Nan, we two really hit it off at first sight. There must have been many misunderstandings between us before."

"But now I find that our two personalities are really compatible."

Su Nan noticed that the Duke wanted to win him over, so he gave him a perfunctory smile.

Yes, if the Duke wants to become King, he must win over a group of high-level nobles to support him.

And the current Peter family is worthy of the Duke's envy and desire to pull him into his own camp.

Hearing that the two local nobles were not prepared to participate in the coup, Houston's eyes were a little dim, but he had no choice, after all, he couldn't offend Su Nan and the Duke.

Su Nan and the Duke already had the capital to be completely independent.

After all, the Stormwind Kingdom is essentially a loosely assembled kingdom.

Even if the King went crazy, he could only show his power in Stormwind Keep. Su Nan and the other two would directly return to their garrisons, close their doors, and become local emperors.

Su Nan felt that as a wizard, there was no need to participate in the conspiracies and politics between nobles.

He now had to collect books during the day, deduce new magic and mental power enhancement formulas, and hunt warlock bloodlines at night.

At the same time, the intelligent brain gave feedback, completing two calculation tasks.

【The improvement work of the Wilderness Adventure spell of the summoning sub-direction of the One Ring Spell School has been completed, and it can now be matched with the wolf pack to transform into the One Ring Magic Wolf Pack Origin Spell.】

【A new mental power enhancement formula has been completed, and the 'Warlock's Blood Potion' has been deduced, the key formula material is the blood essence of a warlock above the three-star level.】

【Trying to deduce a level one mental enhancement potion recipe that does not require warlock blood.】

Su Nan secretly ordered the intelligent brain. 'Carry out the work of analyzing the monk's cube.'

Su Nan realized that the monk's cube was not just something used by the blind monks to summon an army and give power to the demon hunters.

Its essence is very special, and seems to involve the power source of the blind monks.

If it can be analyzed, it can easily restrain blind monks. And can obtain his power, used to strengthen his werewolf army.

Su Nan casually said a few words, and before this secret gathering ended, he bid farewell and left.
