Chapter 208

Thirty years ago, that man defected... Left pantos.

Filled with resentment against the governor and his family, he left his hometown and fled to the disputed land.

It is said that in order to survive, the noble young master was forced to take up the long sword and fight. He tossed and turned several mercenary groups to mingle with the mud legs and live by the dirty bridges and ditches.

At that time, the governors of pantos did not take him seriously.

After all, an ant can't make an elephant notice it all the time. In addition, no one thinks he will raise any waves, so he simply doesn't care about him.

Then the then governors of pantos temporarily selected another wretch from the forty families to replace him and became a puppet on the ivory and gold throne.

Enjoy glory and wealth.

The governors thought that the man who had escaped might die in an insignificant corner and could not return home for the rest of his life.

However, no one thought of fate.

The prince who escaped on the eve of his appointment had a certain prestige and a small team willing to follow him after he was forced to take up his sword and fight with his life and tossed several mercenary regiments.

So he broke away from the mercenary regiment he had stayed in and established a new mercenary regiment with five partners.

Subsequently, the newly established mercenary regiment, led by the prince who had fled, won many battles, and its power gradually expanded.

It took ten years to grow up to be one of the most important forces in the disputed land, with a full number of 2000 brave soldiers.

It was not until this time that the governors of pantos paid attention to the man again.

However, after 30 years, there are few governors who were once in power. Most of them have been turned into loess. Even a few people who are still alive have long left their posts and are lying in hospital beds.

Although the new generation of governors have heard of the title of defected prince, they do not know each other's heel. At the same time, because the time interval is too far away, the new generation of Governors do not pay much attention to each other. In their view, this man is just a bug lucky to get the blessing of fate.

Although the other side has been saying that they will return to their hometown openly one day, 30 years have passed, but even pantos did not dare to enter the door.

But now... Except those insiders, who can think that this name has been raised again at this time.

Governor Santos's words immediately caused an uproar in the banquet hall.

"What? Wesselis colluded with the wind group?"

"The guy who defected thirty years ago?"

"Prince ragged."

"Yes, that's him."

Many governors heard the shocking news like thunder, and their faces showed daze and surprise. Then they couldn't help whispering with the people around them. It seemed that they had just learned the news.

Only a few governors knew that the wind had infiltrated pantos.

And it was secretly received through some channels only a few hours before the festival celebration tour.

It was dark then.

At the same time, these informed governors only knew the news and did not know how serious the situation was. They just thought that a group of mercenaries from the wind blowing regiment had mixed in.

The relationship between the governors is not so harmonious. Even now, they are regarded as radicals, advocating to intimidate wesselis and force him to hand over the dragon.

However, before this incident, these governors who are still regarded as a faction are in fact enemies of each other, and it would be good if they didn't stab each other in the back.

Therefore, the news of the wind mass mixing into pantos did not spread widely among the governors.

The governor of Santos, who spoke, had great power in the city-state and was one of the insiders of the matter.

Governor Santos's words completely detonated the silence in the banquet hall. All the governors were whispering, and the servants and guards in the hall couldn't help looking at each other.

At this time, more and more servants and soldiers came in from the door of the hall.

These people are the guards and servants carried by the governors. They all come in to convey the news of the outside world to their masters.

Deng Deng Deng

After hurrying in, he leaned over his master's ears and told them the outside world.

Then the faces of these governors changed suddenly.

"What?"

"How could this happen?"

The conservative governors sitting on Prince pantos's left, including illyrio, did not have a domestic servant come in and tell their master what was going on outside.

Conservative governors are also whispering. They don't know what's going on outside. However, looking at the faces of those governors opposite, it seems that it shouldn't be a good thing.

"How come no one came in..."

At this time, illyrio seemed to have a premonition of some danger.

He shook his fist slightly, turned his small eyes around, glanced around, and then whispered a few words to a servant next to him.

"Yes, master."

Then the servant hurried down the stairs and walked towards the door of the hall.

Illyrio fixed his eyes on the servant, and was slightly relieved to see him go out of the door smoothly.

However, just as he was relieved, a small scream came suddenly from outside the hall, which could only be heard by pricking up his ears.

It was as if someone had suddenly covered his mouth from behind, and then stabbed it into his throat with a dagger, and then the scream stopped suddenly.

Illyrio's face suddenly changed.

And at this time.

Step on

Outside the banquet hall came a soldier in armor and spear.

A short sword was hung around his waist. Although it was well concealed, a trace of blood could be seen on the cuff.

Then the soldier closed the gate of the palace as if nothing had happened, and he withdrew and locked it from the outside.

Click——

The crisp sound of locking was not so noticeable in the noise detonated by the governor's sentence.

The hall is still in chaos.

And outside.

The soldier with blood on his body went out and locked the hall. Then he nodded to his colleagues.

"Yes."

And the servant sent by illyrio.

Now his body was dragged by two soldiers to the grass in the palace garden not far away.

The drag left a long blood mark on the ground.

The night was deep.

Now it's past the bat time on the first day of the new year.

And outside the banquet hall.

Under the burning torch, cold weapons reflected the dark light.

"This way!"

"Hurry up!"

Rows and rows of soldiers in armor were already well prepared, and the palace was surrounded from the outside.
