Shameless Warlock

Chapter 284: General Howell

Just when the eastern kingdom was in turmoil.

General Howell, who had been silent to the outside world, suddenly did something vigorously and resolutely.

This matter is not widely circulated even among the high-level officials of the kingdom, but its actual influence may be enough to determine the fate of the Eastern Kingdom for the next few decades.

He sent a secret letter to each of the four heirs.

The content of the secret letter is to invite all the heirs of the royal family who support themselves to come to the Castle of Wales.

He will adjudicate the king's authority in an old and gentle way.

In this way, the kingdom will be prevented from weakening due to civil wars, and the southern countries or the Afaria civilization that is about to move in the north will be able to take advantage of it.

This method is said to have been designated by the old king.

When the old king was renovating the Welsh castle, he considered that if he died suddenly, it would be too late to designate an heir. So he hid a mithril sword in an undisclosed location three miles from the castle in Wales.

He told Howell that not only the four heirs, but also those who have royal blood, find the mithril sword and become the owner of the mithril sword, they can become the new king.

Howell intends to follow the old king's previous ideas and use this ancient method to choose a new king among the heirs.

Therefore, the people who received the secret letter were far more than the four heirs of the royal family!

According to Evelyn's estimate, there are currently at least four hundred people living in this castle, most of whom are somewhat related to the royal family, and some are even the illegitimate sons of the fallen duke...

I don't know from which corner Howell found these people.

It can only be said that the military power controlled by this general is really amazing.

In fact, Howell's invitation is very unfair and very dangerous to the four heirs.

Leaving his own territory and coming to Welsh Castle, God knows if it was a conspiracy by Howell.

Once he completes the conspiracy with an heir other than himself.

So don't other people become mermaids?

But the problem is that Howell's opinion itself is the key to becoming the next king.

He hadn't made a sound before, as if he was obsessed with the death of the old king and couldn't extricate himself.

But now, he decided to stand up and preside over the overall situation.

Here comes the danger.

Not coming is tantamount to giving up Howell's support directly.

This is an unacceptable price for any heir.

In fact, the strength of the heirs of the Quartet, apart from the eldest prince who has some real power, is nothing compared to the army in charge of Howell.

There have been discussions in the kingdom for a long time.

As long as General Howell is willing, he can proclaim himself emperor at any time!

He was trained in fighting in the army, and after many years of management, the military department is all his people!

Every year's military training is handled by him personally.

Every soldier regards General Howell as his idol.

He just raised his arms and shouted.

The remaining four heirs are nothing more than a show.

So, before that, everyone, including Evelyn, was trying to talk to Howell.

But the information they received was very limited.

Until the arrival of this ancient and wonderful invitation.

Because the so-called [Looking for the Mithril Sword] is all based on Howell's one-sidedness, so no one knows whether this is the arrangement of the old king.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

For the throne.

All ambitious guys have come to this castle.

Among the four heirs, only the eldest prince explicitly refused.

However, he didn't dare to directly offend Howell, instead he said he was sick at home and sent a cousin over to act as a representative.

Xu Nan thought that this cousin must not have a good relationship with the eldest prince...

Of course, these are off topic.

The current situation is.

Welsh castles are all under the control of General Howell.

Representative of the three royal heirs and the Grand Prince.

More than four hundred people of royal blood.

All in this castle!

"There are more than two thousand soldiers on duty..."

"Howell, this guy is really in charge of the wind and rain in the Eastern Kingdom."

"Even if he becomes a king with his support, to be honest, he's just a puppet, right?"

From the window of the room on the second floor, Xu Nan could see a large number of soldiers with serious expressions.

They are meticulously carrying out Howell's orders.

A member of the royal family clamoring to see General Howell was forcibly taken back to the room.

Throughout the process, the soldiers moved in unison and were well-trained, without even frowning.

It can be seen that Howell's ability to govern the army is excellent.

"no."

Facing Xu Nan's complaints, Evelyn retorted in a rare way:

"Although Uncle Howell has absolute influence in the king, most of the soldiers listen to him."

"But he never meddled in domestic affairs... Well, as far as I know, at least on paper."

Xu Nan touched his nose.

Non-interference in internal affairs means nothing.

When the old king was around, it was normal for Howell to behave.

He was actually quite curious about what was behind Howell's sudden operation. After all, the drama of finding the mithril sword and becoming its owner was too nonsense; but he was more concerned about where the evil spirit lord is now!

"There are 2,000 to 3,000 people in the entire castle. It is too difficult to find an evil spirit lord who can possess many people."

Luo Song couldn't help complaining.

He stared at Susie: "Can you be more precise?"

Susie directly rolled her eyes and scratched her paws in response:

"I can't directly sense his existence."

"I can only look for it based on the breath, this guy is very cunning, he has spread his breath all over every corner of the entire castle, even every guard has his smell!"

"I suspect that he deliberately left his breath like this, and then he ran away early..."

Xu Nan frowned.

If that's the case, then things are a little trickier.

I was going to Ice Saw Valley, but I ran into Akun on the way.

Well, temporarily diverted to help senior Akun catch the evil spirit lord, who knew that he would bump into Evelyn again halfway.

Does this mean that more and more side missions are opened?

"wrong."

Akun shook his head and said firmly:

"Lynch's goal is recovery."

"And the fastest way to recover is to suck the lifespan of a stranger."

"In the entire Buck Mountain Range, where are the most people now?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was awakened immediately!

Where are the most people?

Naturally, it was the Welsh castle summoned by General Howell.

"As expected of Senior Akun!"

Xu Nan felt ashamed and said, "I didn't even consider this level."

"In this way, the evil spirit lord running this way should have sensed the crowd here, and he wants to take this opportunity to restore his strength!"

"We must find that evil spirit!"

Ah Kun pointed to the soldiers outside the window and said:

"But they certainly won't believe our rhetoric."

"I can't really hurt them."

"How about Junior Xu Nan...huh?"

His "huh" was very spiritual.

Of course Xu Nan realized what the senior meant.

At this time, to control the behavior of the soldiers without harming them, naturally only the charismatic and unparalleled self will appear on the stage!

He thought about it, even if these soldiers were trained, there should be a high probability of becoming his dog licking.

As long as you control a part of yourself, you can deceive people's eyes and ears.

The key is to leave this room, and you will have a chance to hunt down Lynch!

He Shi Shiran walked on a catwalk, ready to push the door out and use Qingguoqingcheng again.

But at this moment, Evelyn suddenly said:

"Let me do it."

"Uncle Howell and I have a good relationship. Let me try and see if I can bring you to meet him."

Xu Nan and Akun looked at each other, thought for a moment, and nodded slightly.

It's best not to use things like charm spells.

It's not that it does any harm to these soldiers.

It was Xu Nan who was afraid that he would become addicted.

After all, it feels so good to be licked by everyone...

He was afraid that one day, only himself and the dogs all over the world would be left in the world.

That's cool, but after a long time, it will be very boring.

"Then let's try first."

Xu Nan signaled Evelyn to communicate with the guard at the door.

Evelyn knocked on the door, then opened half of the side door, and asked to see General Howell.

The soldier quickly looked around, and after confirming that there were no other heirs of the royal family making trouble in the corridor, he whispered:

"Your Majesty General has told you that if His Royal Highness Evelyn wants to see him, he will allow it."

Evelyn beamed a little.

Just the next second, the soldier looked at the three men with very different styles behind her with some vigilance:

"But the general also said that you can bring up to two followers."

Evelyn was perplexed.

Xu Nan thought for a while: "No problem."

"I just want to wrong Mr. Luo Song and Liu Yi."

Susie's eyes widened suddenly:

"what's on your mind?"

"Don't even think about it!!!"

"Ah, why did you let the stinky man into my territory!"

"Isn't this wronging me? Woohoo..."

Under the weak resistance of the chalk cat, Xu Nan signaled Evelyn to close the door.

In the next second, he put Luo Song and Liu Yi into the original treasure box.

Plus Susie.

So, in a blink of an eye, there were only him, Akun and Evelyn left in the room.

When Evelyn opened the door again, nothing but surprise remained in the soldier's eyes.

However, he still left the room with the three of them.

"Let's go faster, so as not to let other heirs of the royal family see it, which will cause unnecessary misunderstanding."

The soldier whispered.

The three moved quickly.

The guards in the castle can be said to be very strict.

It is said that this is the place where the Eastern Kingdom trains professionals, so every guard has a high level.

Xu Nan thought that he and Akun were enough to equalize this place, and he was immediately slapped in the face.

He thought, at least two more Jiang Yuanchi would be needed...

Along the way, they passed about six checkpoints before reaching the depths of the Welsh Castle.

"The general is inside."

"You can see him now."

The guard finished his mission and walked back.

Someone opened the door for them.

Bright sunlight came from the study.

This should be the highest point of the Welsh castle.

Facing everyone is a study room, and there should be a matching master bedroom and washroom next to it.

If the person living here is a city lord, then this should be the city lord's room.

Now, the owner of this room is obviously Howell, who has power.

He is a middle-aged man with a rather youthful face.

When the three walked in, Howell was holding a box in his arms.

There was a snap.

He closed the box, and immediately showed a bright smile:

"Evelyn."

"You are getting more and more beautiful."

"Thank you, Uncle Howell."

Evelyn smiled lightly and performed an impeccable court etiquette.

As for Xu Nan and Akun, they could only nod their heads.

Although the two of them are Evelyn's followers in name, they are not in the same unit at all, okay?

Neither had much feeling for Howell.

Akun is a legendary monk, and Xu Nan himself is a city lord!

It's just a general, at most he can control the pattern of the Eastern Kingdom!

Xu Nan wondered why he was also a strong man who talked and laughed with the gods, and saluted the general of a secular kingdom—it is possible, but it is not necessary!

"Are these two professionals in your territory?"

Howell raised an eyebrow.

"I come from the Ten Commandments Monastery, a monk, a demon caster."

"I'm here to bring Master Liu Ye's advice."

"In this castle, there is hiding a monster from the world of evil spirits."

"I'm trying to catch him, and I hope your Excellency can provide some help."

Ah Kun spoke directly, with a serious tone.

Xu Nan was taken aback for a moment, and thought that senior Akun had learned too quickly when he went to the countryside to do as the Romans do. This tone is a proper local devil-slayer in the general world...

"Ten Commandments Monastery? Master Leaf?"

Howell's expression changed slightly, he seemed to have heard of this name before.

"Evil spirit?"

He turned to look at Xu Nan:

"And what about your Excellency? Are you also a monk of the Ten Commandments Monastery?"

Xu Nan thought for a while:

"There shouldn't be a monk as handsome as me, right?"

Howell's expression was slightly astonished.

"Okay, let's be serious."

Xu Nan said solemnly:

"I'm from Stephen Sand, I'm a mage, they all call me mage Lynch."

"Mage Lynch?"

Howell's expression changed suddenly, but in the next second, he saw Xu Nan's sly smile.

"really."

"You know Lynch, you know the evil spirit lord."

Xu Nan smiled coldly:

"Mr. Howell, should I call you Howell, or just call you Lynch?"

There was disbelief on Evelyn's face, but she immediately understood Xu Nan's operation!

He pretended to be talking about something, and then deliberately called himself Lynch, which was testing Howell!

From Xu Nan's point of view, Lynch might go directly to Howell, who has the highest level of power, if he sneaks into the castle!

So he has to defend himself.

And now, he feels he has succeeded.

"Senior Ah Kun..."

Before Xu Nan finished speaking, Akun made a lightning move and directly snatched the box from Howell!

Open it and have a look.

A bloody human head rolled out from inside.

Looking at the head, Evelyn's eyes suddenly widened, and she almost screamed!
