Chapter 1916 [White Wolf] William: Take the heir and leave quickly.
Askan Land, hunting ground and palace.
The conditions of the palace cannot be compared with those of the family's main castle. There are no thick and towering walls, no tight shutters, and even no thick and soft velvet blankets that can comfortably wrap a person inside.
A group of people could only gather in a dark and small room, spread wolf skins, deer skins, and sheep skins as high as possible to make a more comfortable mattress for [White Wolf] William. Then, they just urged, urged, no matter what.
Constantly urging:
"Can you give me another treatment? Brother/father/grandpa is dying!"
"Has the medicine healed? What? It will take another quarter of an hour to heal? Can't it be faster?"
"Another healer! The healing power is not enough!"
"Have the people who went to the castle come back yet?"
"Cough cough, cough cough, cough cough cough..."
[White Wolf] William was half sitting and half lying on the bed, with his eyes closed and breathing hard. He was stabbed in the chest and flailed again. At this moment, half of his chest collapsed, and every breath he took was like a sharp knife stirring in his chest:
"Don't... worry about me... first, let others treat... Linus..."
Linus Askan took two steps forward, knelt down in front of his grandfather, and held his hand. [White Wolf] William reluctantly moved his fingers:
"From now on, I'll leave it to you... When everyone is here, I'll announce..."
"Grandpa, please rest in peace! Don't bother yourself!" Linus Askan felt sad, lowered his voice, and interrupted hastily:
"We have already sent for Archbishop Otto! When he comes, you will be fine! Don't think about this!"
[White Wolf] William shook his head feebly.
Archbishop Otto, before giving up his surname and family to serve the Lord of Glory, was once his cousin. In other words, he was a member of the family and a high-level healer that the family could trust——
But he also knew Otto's strength. He could hang him alive if he wanted to, but he couldn't even think about curing his injuries. To restore his health and strength, he needed to have high-level treatment at the level of a Vatican Cardinal.
or...
"Is Lenny here?"
The room suddenly became quiet. People around the bed exchanged glances with each other, but no one said anything. The head of the house's question spread from the bedroom to outside the room, and then from outside the room to the hall. After a long time, an answer sounded from the outer circle of the crowd:
"The boy didn't come, and... he wasn't in the castle. His whereabouts are unknown."
The old man on the bed, and [Big Bear] Albery, who was supporting him behind him, closed their eyes in pain.
He didn't come when called, he didn't defend the castle... Who was he hanging out with?
What does he want to do?
In the silence, the sound of flapping wings suddenly penetrated the room. A raven with a dark body and a metallic luster entered through the square stone window at a very high place, raising its left leg arrogantly.
Someone immediately rushed forward, took off a small metal tube from the raven's leg, took out the letter inside and looked at it, frowning:
"The latest news. Another group of high-level professionals from the Holy See, more than ten people, concealed their identities from the direction of Berg Castle and entered the country secretly. It is estimated that they will arrive here in five days."
Berg Castle is the southernmost castle in the northern border vassal. A large number of high-level professionals from the Holy See entered the country from there. It is obvious that they have sent new personnel.
five days.
There are still seven days to go before the Spring Hunting Festival, and we will arrive in five days, which is just enough time to kill everything that needs to be done, and subdue everything that needs to be subdued. By then, at the Spring Hunting Festival, Tai Tai will be able to help the person the Holy See favors ascend to the position of head of the family...
"No, I can't, wait..."
[White Wolf] William opened his eyes suddenly. The old man had been struggling on the verge of death for several days, and his eyes, which were already a little cloudy, shone brightly at this moment:
"Albery, hand over the [Conqueror] to Linus, take him away! Take him away! The sword is there, the man is there, the Holy See, no matter who it is, no one can sit here...
…”
"Brother, what about you?"
[Big Bear] Albery was shocked. Taking people away at this time would be equivalent to leaving his eldest brother, the head of the Askan family, alone here——
Even if we can immediately host the succession ceremony, what should we do if the Holy See becomes angry?
"Leave immediately! There are no more good players in the family..."
After searching the entire territory, we can still find a number of high-level warriors and high-level spellcasters.
However, those high-ranking warriors belonging to various vassal families, those who were willing to stand on their side no matter the cost, have all come over, those who should be injured are injured, and those who should lie down are lying down;
If you don’t want to follow them without any regrets and let the grass fall in the wind, you can’t put your hope in them. Leave immediately and preserve the family inheritance, which is the most important thing!
"Don't, leave me alone..."
"Leave alone who?"
A clear, even sharp sound, whirled above the head. Before everyone could hear it, a ray of white light shot in from the window and stopped at the head of the bed:
The tern Baka stood leisurely, combed its feathers with its pointed beak a few times, and shouted arrogantly:
"No one needs to leave! Don't worry, your injuries are nothing - the helper is here!"
As he spoke, he fluttered his wings and shot out of the window like a sharp arrow. Not long after, a series of exclamations came from the outside to the inside, from the soldiers guarding outside the hunting palace to the soldiers guarding outside the hall.
Soldiers, keep coming:
"what is that?"
"what is that!"
"Come so fast!"
"so big!"
"Is that a ship?"
"Are you crazy? How can there be a ship flying in the sky?"
"It's coming down!"
"Alert! Alert!!!"
[Big Bear] Albery and his brother looked at each other, nodded, and ran out. They ran outside the hall, raised their heads, and saw a thin boat about ten meters long, surrounded by clouds and mist, swooping in.
And Baka, the tern who has become familiar with them, is flapping his wings and leading the way quickly, shouting as he flies:
"This way! This way! This way! Get out of the way! Make way for the healer! What about you!!!"
"Step aside!"
[Big Bear] Alber commanded with a thunderous voice. He waved his arms, and no matter how surprised the crowd was, they immediately separated on both sides, leaving room for the small boat.
In a moment, the boat broke through the wind and landed quietly, without being disturbed. The moment it hit the ground, it naturally disintegrated and turned into a huge maple tree with bright red leaves.
Under the maple tree, eight or nine people stood in a row. The leader held an oak stick in his hand. He glanced forward and turned over a big deer:
"Where? Where are the injured?"
"here!!!"
[Big Bear] Albery waved his hand vigorously. He had no time to feel the pressure from the coming people, let alone the high level of these people.
At this moment, he only knows:
Little Gretel came in person, and my brother was saved!
The soldiers who were injured in this battle and the high-level experts of the family can be saved!
