To be honest, in the war on the plains, being targeted by the demon camp shows that this person still has some weight, at least he is an important figure.
"Did that dirty scavenger vulture have a bad stomach?"
However, when Master Ren knew that he was being targeted by the ghoul Duke Marcus, he still couldn't help but curse.
Duke Marcus is mobilizing his and the power of the ghouls to deal with him and the Thorn Security Company!
After hearing the news from Sophie, Ren was not only confused but also felt like I haven't bothered you yet, so you're going to bother me.
"Your Highness Princess, I don't remember that I offended him, right? Why did Duke Marcus send someone to bite me?" The sweet and sour taste of the wine entered his throat, but Ren curled his lips, "Is it possible that he is jealous of my appearance?
handsome?"
Marcus, the ghoul Duke, is about to be promoted to Dark Lord through the "Feast of Gluttony" ritual, which is the trigger of the war.
There is no doubt that he is a key figure, but Ren really doesn't remember that he and Marcus have any intersection or any grudges.
Some time ago, the system released an "optional mission" to kill the ghoul Marcus, with a time limit of one year... But Renn didn't think Marcus had the ability to know about it.
Everyone has no grievances, so he has no reason to do it to him.
"snort!"
Ren's teasing words made Sophie raise her chin slightly and snort softly.
Renn's appearance was considered handsome, and he was far from the level that others would be jealous of. She slightly opened her red lips and said:
"I'm sorry to tell you that he is not jealous of your face, but have you forgotten the ghost-hand Marcello?"
Marcello?
This name made Renn stunned for a moment, and then he frowned:
"The Skeleton Gang has been destroyed, and grass has grown on Marcello's grave. He was not a particularly powerful figure during his lifetime... Could there be any sequelae?"
Guishou is indeed a wolf killer.
For the sake of profit, Marcello dared to join the demon camp and become a traitor. He also kidnapped civilians and gave them to the ghouls as rations...
"I'm no longer a human being!"——This sentence is the best explanation for him.
For Ren, who had just gone to Pugni Plain and was still a peak third-level [Black Hunter], Ghost Hand was a formidable enemy.
But in today's view of Ren, he is not a difficult person.
A [Fighting Master] at the beginning of the fourth level, although his combat power is not weak, it doesn't take much effort to hack him to death.
"Sometimes, some inconspicuous characters often become good chess pieces and play a big role."
Princess Sophie opened a confidential document with bare hands, her voice was as cold as ever, but it made Ren narrow his eyes.
Some clues slowly connected in his mind, and he asked softly:
"Your Highness, do you mean that he is an important chess piece of the demon clan?"
"I'm not sure. Prince Milo didn't react at all, but according to the intelligence coming from behind the scenes, the death of Ghost Hand made Duke Marcus and the ghoul family very angry..."
Reading the contents of the document, a strange color flashed in Princess Sophie's amber eyes.
Hidden line?
These two words made Ren's heart move. In the 7th game, a secret line was planted in the occupied Pineapple Town. You know, there is no living person in that town!
Doesn't this mean that there are rebels among the demons on that side...
Rape?
Renn squinted at the document in her hand, while Sophie looked him up and down, and continued meaningfully:
"If you hadn't happened to kill him... Afterwards, through some clues, we found out that we had underestimated Marcello the Ghost Hand and did not notice anything unusual."
She bit the word "abnormal" a little too hard, which made Ren think thoughtfully.
In fact, I really didn't pay much attention to Marcelo in the 7th game at the beginning.
With a fighting master at the beginning of the fourth level, coupled with the largest gang on the plain - the Skeleton Gang, Ghost Hand may be able to run rampant in the originally barren Pugni Plain.
But in the eyes of those in the 7th game, these are nothing.
If you show some seriousness, let the Ghost Hands become dead ghosts, let the Skeleton Gang become ashes, and then scatter them together...
but.
Sometimes what leads to changes in the situation and unpredictable consequences may not be earth-shattering events or big figures.
"Ren, you have been hiding behind the scenes before, and 'Weirdo' Zoro attracted the firepower for you... Duke Marcus didn't notice you, but now, as you become famous in one battle, some information can no longer be concealed.
…”
A strange look appeared on Sophie's fair and pretty face, and she looked at Ren as if she were looking at a scourge.
At that time, he was not even at the fourth level. He relied on conspiracy and tricks to stir up troubles in the dark, and actually disrupted the situation on the plain, and almost triggered a war in advance!
How audacious and cunning this is.
'It's over, the news is leaked, now no one will take the blame.'
Ren's face twitched and he sighed.
The reason why he has been able to stay stable for such a period of time is all because he passed the blame to "Weirdo" Zorro... Now that the news has been leaked, there is no one to take the blame.
"Ren, many people now know that you are the mastermind...Whether it was intentional or unintentional, you killed an important chess piece in the demon camp.
At least they are carefully selected chess pieces by the ghoul clan!
This makes them very angry, and they are ready to launch the traitors hidden among the demons and humans in the kingdom to deal with you."
Princess Sophie's voice remained calm, but there was a bit of gloating in her eyes.
It can be seen that she was a little happy to see Renn, her love rival, in bad luck, and even wished that he would suffer a little.
"Your Highness, do I need to be afraid?" Renn took a deep breath, tilted his head and smiled.
He had a smile on his face, but his heart was a little solemn.
Some nobles on the edge of the plain, several underground dark organizations, the ghoul clan... these forces gathered together to target him, and even he did not dare to look down upon him!
Overtly, covertly, plus the demon descendants... these are enough for him and Thorn Security Company to have a drink!
"What do you think? Master Ackerman."
Sophie had a smile of unknown meaning on her face, still so beautiful and charming.
"Haha, Your Highness Princess, as you can see, I am in trouble now. You know, I have always been very patriotic.
Back then, I risked my life and intercepted Frank, the top Dark Duke of the Vampire Clan, together with Senior Gunman Carlos, and intercepted an important piece of information for the kingdom..."
Ren rubbed his hands and began to get close to her shamelessly.
After knowing that the person who came was evil and that there were many enemies who could not be underestimated, his first reaction was to find someone to share the blame...
Ahem, we are looking for allies to work together to overcome difficulties!
He was not afraid, he just wanted to minimize his losses.
For this reason, a little face is nothing. Unfortunately, Renn's idea of finding someone to take the blame is doomed to fail.
"Ren, the information I brought is the kingdom's support for you. The rest must be solved by yourself."
Princess Sophie stood up and stared at him opposite with her beautiful eyes.
"Can't you provide more friendly support? I am a law-abiding citizen of the kingdom and a model noble!" Ren asked with a dead eye.
He still refuses to give up on pretending to be powerful and pulling people into trouble.
I'm used to letting others take the blame, but this time I suddenly have to shoulder the blame, which is a little bit unaccustomed to me...
"Ren, the war is about to break out in the Pugni Plain, and the royal family also needs to win the support of the nobles in that area... It is impossible to suppress the incident for you at this time.
But now, we have to prepare for the 7th round, and we don't have the energy to deal with those underground organizations.
As for the ghouls, the demons are the mortal enemies of the kingdom and there is no room for negotiation... We will provide help within the rules, but we will not provide additional support to you..."
Sophie said a lot, but she can sum it up in one sentence: The kingdom is too busy to take care of itself and has no time to wipe your butt!
Of course, she also made it clear that if Ren was willing to join the 7th Bureau or marry into the Clement family, everything would be different.
"Oh, he is indeed his godson. If my uncle doesn't love me and grandma doesn't love me, I'll see him off."
Ren sighed with regret on his face and stood up to see the guest off.
As for joining the 7th Bureau, or marrying into the Roland royal family to seek asylum, he has never considered it at all!
Just kidding, do you really think that Master Ren can’t lift the knife?
Besides, as long as he is willing to hang out at the headquarters of the Empire's Demon Hunter Association and join the special operations team, he can also sit back and relax. The association is more powerful than the kingdom.
But in this way, the power he had worked so hard to cultivate in Faloran was gone.
Unless absolutely necessary, Renn will not abandon his foundation and run away.
"Ren, let me remind you."
Opening the exquisite golden nanmu door in the living room with bare hands, Princess Sophie paused slightly and glanced back:
"Perhaps, you can ask the Fenokaxiu family for help. I heard that you and Leon have a good relationship."
The Fenocathu family is a marquis family, the top wealthy family in Falorland, the family of "Horn of Dawn" Wade, and Saint Wade is Leon's grandfather.
"No need, I'm not afraid at all!"
Ren said calmly that he had no intention of asking Leon for help.
Although he often deceives people and is used to pulling them into trouble, the people he deceives are plastic brotherhoods and he rarely deceives his real friends.
Sophie blinked her beautiful amber eyes and looked at him in surprise.
Bingxue was smart and she could sense that he didn't want to involve his friends, so she felt better about him and explained:
"Ren, this is not asking for help. The matter about the ghoul family and Duke Marcus is also related to Leon and your friend Master Nicholas."
Are they also related to Lao Goat and Leon?
Ren was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a moment.
"Don't forget that the wife of the ghoul Duke Marcus was designed to be killed by Leon and Nicholas!
Ruined his plan, ruined his future, and his friend even killed his wife... Renn, do you still think there is no grudge between you and Duke Marcus?
He didn't know that you were behind the scenes before, but now, especially after Duke Marcus knows that you, Nicholas and Leon are still good friends...
With all the old and new grudges, he already wants to tear you into pieces!"
The corners of Princess Sophie's mouth raised slightly, and she walked away with her sexy and charming long legs, leaving only a slim figure behind.
"Tsk, tsk, it turns out that I have offended him so badly."
After sorting out the information provided by Princess Sophie, Ren connected the clues in his mind with a sneer on his face.
'System, use that mission point to start retrieving the dungeon world in advance!'
Ren's eyes showed a cold light and he muttered silently in his heart.
After knowing who the enemies were and how difficult they were, he made up his mind.
Renn is very aware of the power that Duke Marcus can wield.
Not to mention that Marcus himself is about to be promoted to the Dark Duke. As a key figure in the battle, he has been watched by the demon camp and can mobilize many powerful demons.
And Marcus also has the support of the entire ghoul clan!
Originally, Ren planned to hide in the dark, and look for opportunities with Artoria to kill the two ghoul dukes, Marcus and Tucker, and complete the optional mission.
But it's impossible now, he has been targeted by Duke Marcus.
The other party cannot be lured out by his design, and will be very wary of him and always keep an eye on him secretly, so...
[Guardian No. 1 uses a mission point to activate mission authority!]
[Under detection, permission activation is successful, start the copy task in advance! 】
[The dungeon mission, "Sword Breakthrough" has been generated in advance, and the appropriate dungeon mission world is being retrieved...]
[Reminder, the dungeon mission "Sword Breakthrough", which is expected to be released in three years, will be launched within half a year, and all online favored ones will accept this mission. 】
Renn listened to the system prompts with an expressionless face.
He studied this broken system for a while and finally figured out some ways to use it.
After the "Weapon Mission" in the Moon World, he had one remaining mission point that he had not used, so this time he chose to open the dungeon in advance.
Since he can no longer hide in the dark, he must have absolute strength to kill Duke Marcus who has noticed him and is heavily protected by the demon!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! On the battlefield, among thousands of troops, kill Duke Marcus!
Although it is difficult, this is the only chance to kill him.
Otherwise, we will do it under the noses of Prince Milo, Prince Christian of Demons, and many dark lords...
This is even more impossible, it is simply courting death!
In less than a year at most, war will break out on the plains.
And this little time is not enough for Ren to break through to the Holy Realm. He is confident that he can reach the fourth level peak, but the last step is too difficult.
Unless you go to another world to practice for a period of time, no matter how long the dungeon mission has passed, the main world will only last for a moment...
There's no way the Holy Grail War can be as short as ten days every time, right?
"Tear me into pieces? Let's see who can kill whom!"
The smile on Renn's face was very cruel. Maybe it would be the best choice to leave the Kingdom of Falorland and go to the association headquarters, give up the optional mission, and seek asylum.
But he had no intention of backing down!
………
Not far outside the villa.
"How dare you kidnap a reporter... Wuwu..."
Two strong men with their faces covered and wearing gray trench coats grinned and roughly dragged a brown-haired middle-aged man into an alley.
A brown-haired reporter had a large piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth and his chin was tightly pinched.
"My lord, we have caught this fool without disturbing others."
An employee of Thorn Security Company said contemptuously.
He's just a scumbag with such weak strength. If he dares to offend the big boss Ren, he's like a long-lived person.
Outside the alley, cowboy Garcia wearing a skull mask came over.
"It's not good to be so rude. We are all civilized people."
Garcia gently removed the dirty cloth that smelled like feet that was stuffed into the brown-haired reporter's mouth - these were fresh smelly socks specially prepared for him by Master Lane.
When he was being interviewed by reporters, the brown-haired reporter kept making things difficult for him, which made him feel very tired.
"Young men, I advise you to take care of yourself and let me go quickly, otherwise... no! If you have something to say... it's easy to say! Don't... kill me!"
The brown-haired reporter took a few breaths and was about to give a serious warning.
Garcia immediately took out a Force firearm and roughly pressed the black muzzle against his chin. The reporter was so frightened that he sweated coldly, his body trembled, and he stammered when speaking.
"I ask, you answer, do you understand?"
Garcia, who was wearing a skull-patterned mask, said coldly.
"Understood...understood, don't...don't kill me, I'll say anything!"
The brown-haired reporter, who was almost out of his mind with fright, said hurriedly.
………
Half an hour later.
"So, that reporter is just a greedy bastard who gets paid to do things and doesn't know anything about the inside story?"
On the second-floor balcony of the villa, Renn's back was turned to the cowboy.
The sun was shining brightly and the wind was gentle. He was holding a small kettle and watering some potted plants.
"Yes, boss, I didn't ask for any valuable information... although he even told me the color of my mother's underwear."
Cowboy Garcia said a little dumbfounded.
The brown-haired reporter was so cowardly. When he accused Lane, he made impassioned speeches, as if he was possessed by a "just fighter." The cowboy thought he was a tough guy...
After being kidnapped, he pointed a gun at me and was so frightened that he almost called me daddy.
But I found nothing, which is not good news.
"Haha, isn't it good to live? Garcia, do you know why so many people like to seek death?"
Ren smiled coldly. Although it was not directed at him, his cruel and bloodthirsty tone still made the cowboy very uneasy.
Garcia knew that the boss was angry this time and bowed his head respectfully:
"Boss, what should we do this time?"
Ren turned around, his cold and ruthless eyes reminded Cowboy Garcia of the terrifying look in his boss's eyes when he looked at the Skeleton Gang's station that night in Orange Town.
After that, the Skeleton Gang, together with the ghost-hand Marcello, became history...
"There are many enemies, deal with them one by one!"
Ren slowly put down the kettle and took out a Caramore card from his sleeve. When he turned it over, it showed the image of a clown.
