What does James Edward look like?

Anthony didn't remember much, but he was sure that the guy was blond, blue-eyed, with deep eyes and a high nose, and the outline of his face was full of sculptural toughness - typical of the "ideal Aryan" style. In fact, the entire Thracian royal family, as well as its offshoots, are all features of this style and are highly recognizable.

But at this moment, the person he saw had green eyes, deep eyes and high nose, and the lines were as tough as an axe, but he had white hair.

Pale, haggard, with gray hair like an old man.

"This... what's going on?" Anthony asked in a voiceless voice.

"It was boring on the road, so I chatted with him." Little Eggplant said a little embarrassedly, "Then, I missed my mouth and told him the situation of the Edward family..."

Anthony suddenly understood!

What about the Edward family? what's the situation?

Of course the whole family died!

The people who lived in the mansion in the city tried to escape through the tunnel, but the soldiers blocked the tunnel. They poured the potion that can produce poisonous fire and smoke into the tunnel, and then directly blocked all the exits of the tunnel. - including vents.

Those who lived in the manor outside the city were blocked in the manor, and then a fire burned to death together with the manor.

Even a few who had been hidden in the dark and never appeared in front of the public were found and killed directly—two of them didn't even know they were members of the Edward family.

In just one day, the entire Edward family disappeared. Except for James, the only survivor, relatives, subordinates, servants... all died, not a single one remained.

All of this is just an order from King Richard after he got the news of Leopold's death.

The specific content of the order is actually only one sentence.

Let the Edwards be buried with Leopold.

The news came from a traveler, the tauren Sheehan Gaoling who was wandering around with the band. As early as after Wang Tuhao's romantic overturn, he quietly entered the city of Thrace, and has been performing in the city of Thrace and several nearby cities as a lyric singer. No one would have thought that he was actually a spy.

A group of spies, correctly.

A group of spies who can send the collected information without any special means, and no one can stop them.

For such an unconventional tauren, the Thracian spies have of course been paying close attention to it, especially the tauren and his band members are also keen to inquire about all kinds of gossip and spend most of their income. spent on this.

Isn't this a real spy!

However, after their careful investigation, they found that this group of people had absolutely no intention of passing news to the outside world. They...really just inquiring about gossip and chatting.

Nothing was even recorded.

Obviously, it cannot be a spy who does this, only a mentally retarded.

After being labelled mentally retarded, Thracian spies stopped paying attention to this group of weird singers.

... Of course, it's useless for them to pay attention.

Because all the gossip was recorded by the traveler in the castle by comparing the speeches of the wandering band members in the chat channel. During the whole process, there was no interaction between the two parties.

If this can be found, then they are not spies, but immortals.

... No, I'm afraid not even immortals, at least no one has heard of immortals taking a group of people to travel into the game world.

This is the end of the digression, in short, Sheen and the others came here the day after the accident in Thrace, and got almost first-hand information.

King Richard did not hide the information. He even convened a meeting of the great nobles to tell the whole thing in its entirety.

"Generally speaking, I am anxious about this." He reflected on this, "I should take that money, and I should also eliminate future troubles, but I should not be in such a hurry, I should be slower-for example, wait for them to escape. After the city of Leisure is ready, contact the masters of your families to encircle and suppress them together. In this way, even if someone responds, they will not try to escape with the money."

For his statement, the great nobles who attended the meeting expressed their approval and regret.

Although they may not really agree, they may not really regret it.

Even if they agree, they may not agree with this; even if they regret, the reason for regret may not be the same as that of His Majesty the King.

His Majesty the King is well aware of this.

But he certainly wouldn't care.

And everyone knows that if everything comes over again, he will still choose to rush.

There are quick hands, but no slow hands. When the Edward family is still in the city of Thrace, the big nobles dare not take the opportunity to take the lead in the city. Do you really want to share the more than two million with them?

What a joke!

The reason why Leopold rushed to act before the Edward family had left the city was because he knew that the great nobles had planned to join forces to divide the money-their killer team had even been ambushed in the south of the city, watching the Edward family escape. Authentic exit!

It's just that the king never imagined that James Edward, who was just a lucky and speculative success, had quietly developed such a great power under his own eyes!

Whether it is the magic of summoning a giant dragon, or the group of valiant warriors, they are definitely not what a mere knight should have.

If this batch of power is used at the right time and place, I am afraid that it will be enough to change the king of Thrace.

I believe that every time he thinks of this in the future, he will be frightened, and then be happy for his choice.

At least he avoided the worst situation, although he paid a huge price - more than two million gold coins that could have been obtained, only a few hundred thousand in the end.

The greater loss than money was Leopold's death.

Money is valuable, talent is priceless, and the loss of Leopold may be more regrettable to him than the loss of more than two million.

But the biggest loss is not these, but his majesty.

Taking the property of one of the knights under his command as a king is really not a facetious thing. Although if he succeeded, I believe everyone would agree with his approach, but he failed.

The king was not able to get a knight, and was run away by the other party with a huge sum of more than two million gold coins? !

This has done so much damage to his majesty that he has to show enough resolute and cruelty to deter those who secretly mock him.

Although no one knows, this is not very effective. But anyway, it's better than nothing.

And... Although Leopold is dead, there are still people in the Otto family. Doing this can make the Otto family a little relieved, and it can also establish the king's attitude of respecting talents.

As for James's thoughts, he certainly didn't think about it from the beginning.

These things are not secret, you can sort them out after a little inquiries and a little analysis.

On the way today, the little eggplant was a little bored when he was driving the car, so he collected these Xien and the others, and said all the news and intelligence that they had sorted out and analyzed.

She spoke cheerfully and eloquently, with a gesture of pointing the country. But seeing James' expression becoming more and more painful, more and more depressed, the whole person is sluggish.

Before, although he was exhausted from flying on the dragon's back for several days, his eyes were still bright and he was still full of energy.

But these spirits completely dissipated after hearing her say these words.

Just like the knight named James Edward, who would become a dragon slayer in the future, gradually collapsed and shattered into a pile of dust that went away with the wind.

What followed was that his originally golden hair slowly turned white, and finally became pale and withered like an old man.

The little eggplant was so frightened that he closed his mouth, and even lost the quality of chatting in the chat channel.

She never thought that the bridges she had only seen in historical stories and martial arts novels would actually appear in front of her!
