Bright candles, majestic guards, delicate maids, and countless delicious foods create a picture of a nobleman's night banquet.
It's just that the expressions on everyone's faces in the picture scroll are a little weird, as if they have heard something terrifying news.
Moreover, their eyes were all focused on Colin, as if they wanted to ask something, but they didn't dare to speak.
Colin picked up the silver jug on his own, poured himself a glass of red wine, then held it up gracefully, shaking it a few times, and drank it in one go.
"Good wine!"
Earl Morrison finally recovered, forcibly suppressing the anger and doubts in his heart, and asked in a deep voice:
"Earl Anglia, Huayu City is the territory of the Morrison family, why would you let the blood cavalry take over?"
"Why?" Colin smiled coldly, clapped his hands, and said, "Come up!"
Immediately, the four guards carried a long strip into the banquet hall.
Everyone hurriedly cast their curious gazes, but the thing was covered with a dark curtain, and it was impossible to see the truth.
Bang!
The guards erected things in the hall, and then opened the curtain.
Wow—
It turned out to be a crystal coffin!
Through the transparent coffin lid, you can clearly see that inside is an extremely ugly corpse.
Different from ordinary body shape, severe hunchback, thick hands and feet, crooked corners of the mouth, high-protruding cheekbones...
If ugliness is a sin, then the owner of this corpse can be considered exhausted.
But immediately, everyone was puzzled, because they didn't even know this person.
Only Franco narrowed his eyes, as if he had confirmed something, his lips were quietly tightened, and he said nothing.
"Earl Anglia, who is this man?" Earl Morrison asked patiently.
Colin raised his brows and said, "Earl Morrison, isn't your family rich in such deformities? Why, don't you know this one?"
"Earl Anglia!" Earl Morrison panted, his face flushed, but he forced himself to calm down.
No way, the horror of the blood cavalry has been verified countless times. Now that this terrible army has entered the city, Earl Morrison naturally knows that his own army can't compete with it. It is the best result.
In such a situation, no matter how Count Anglie made his remarks or even humiliated the Morrison family, Earl Morrison could only endure it forcibly.
"Earl Anglia, I have never seen this person." Earl Morrison gritted his teeth.
Colin smiled faintly and said: "I believe you, Earl Morrison, as long as you see this ugly face once, you will definitely not forget it.
However, if you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean that other members of the Morrison family have not seen it. "
As he said, Colin's gaze swept across the faces of the Morrison family members one by one, and he asked:
"You don't know this person?"
There was silence.
Countess Nina couldn't help but said, "Earl Angley, who is this man? What crime has been committed? Why do you think he is a member of the Morrison family?"
"Mrs. Nina, you just married into the Morrison family. Of course this has nothing to do with you, so just keep quiet."
Nina frowned, and she was about to speak again, when Colin turned her gaze to Mrs. Grace and asked:
"Mrs. Grace, you have been married to the Morrison family for more than fifty years. Do you know this person?"
This Mrs. Grace is Earl Morrison's grandmother, also from the St. Hild family, and is still Vera's aunt.
When the old woman heard Colin's questioning, some inexplicable expressions flashed in her muddy eyes, seemingly guilty, but also seemingly incredulous.
"I know him."
Earl Morrison was shocked and couldn't help but speak: "Grandma, who is he?"
With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Grace said solemnly, "He is my son and your uncle!"
As soon as this remark came out, the hall suddenly became quiet.
Earl Morrison even screamed, "Grandma! What are you talking about?"
Mrs. Grace ignored Earl Morrison and narrated to herself:
"His name is Horus Morrison, and he was born deformed as soon as he was born. The priest said that he would not live long. Sure enough, when he was three years old, your grandfather told me that Horus was dead.
I was not too sad at the time, but happy for him. The world was too cruel for him, and death was a relief.
Unexpectedly... he actually... grew up so big..."
"Yes, not only did he grow up like this, he also became a powerful mage." Colin continued.
At this time, everyone noticed that the corpse was wearing a red mage robe.
Nina walked behind Mrs. Grace, patted the old woman's back lightly to relieve her sadness, and asked:
"Earl Angley, even if this person is a member of the Morrison family, what wrong did he commit to make you come to ask the crime in such an exciting way?"
"What's wrong?" Colin chuckled and said, "Mrs. Grace, it seems you don't know what this Horus mage has done?"
Mrs. Grace shook her head and said, "What did he do?"
Colin did not answer this question, but asked again loudly: "What? No one else knows this Horus mage?"
There was another silence.
Earl Morrison couldn't help crying loudly:
"Earl Anglia, no matter what this person has done, the Morrison family has never participated in it. You can't come to Fengdie Castle to ask your guilt just because his surname is Morrison!"
"Never participated?" Colin sneered, "What? One by one, all pretending not to know this person?"
Earl Morrison choked and drew his long sword, slammed it on the dining table in front of him, and roared:
"Earl Anglia, I can swear with my life and the honor of the knight. I have never seen a Horus mage, nor have I participated in any action he conspired to plan!"
But Colin didn't even look at Earl Morrison, and said coldly: "Are you pretending to be innocent? Do you really think I don't know what is under the clock tower at the west corner of Fengdie Castle?"
"West Point Clock Tower?"
Everyone in the Morrison family looked blank.
Only Franco's pupils shrank sharply.
This time, Colin captured this detail.
So, he slowly stood up, walked to Franco, stared at the man who had been paralyzed for most of his life, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Excellency Franco, do you really want me to send soldiers to overthrow that clock tower, so that the things below are exposed to the world?"
Franco sighed, without any luck in his heart, and said:
"Earl Anglia, I do know Horus, and I know some of his secrets. However, Earl Morrison and the other people in Papilio Castle do not know these things. If you need to be held accountable, all the sins , I will bear it alone. UU Reading "
"You alone?" Colin laughed, "Is there such a cheap thing?"
Franco's eyes became absolutely determined in an instant, and said: "Earl Anglia, you should know [Wildfire], right?"
"certainly."
Franco smiled nervously and said: "My brother Horus is very good at making such dangerous things, and there are hundreds of cans of his masterpieces buried in the basement of Papilio Castle."
Clin suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Are you threatening me?"
"No." Franco shook his head slowly, "I'm just advising you not to let this matter affect irrelevant people."
"An irrelevant person?"
"Yes. I said that I will bear all guilt!"
