0170 Chapter Secret Meeting of the Torvus Family
Lu Haocang thought very thoroughly. Cooperation with the Rensat family is considered a so-called "business cooperation". Both parties take their own needs. If a special situation really occurs, it will endanger the lives of Lu Haocang and others. There is no problem with decisively giving up the Rensat family. After all, they are just verbal promises.
Hearing Lu Haocang's reply, Halle nodded, basically knowing the former's plan and not saying anything more.
"So, what are we doing now? Are we really staying in Astria City?" Holt asked.
"Well, it's nothing to stay here for a few more days. At that time, you can go to the Adventurer Union to see it. It's also good to do some commissions." Lu Haocang had already thought about the next itinerary and replied.
After confirming that he stayed in Astria City, Lu Haocang took Holt and Mantily to a hotel, near the residence of the Rensat family, so that he could arrive as soon as possible when something happened.
...
On the other side, there is a luxurious conference hall.
This conference hall is luxuriously decorated and looks like a wealthy noble family.
At this time, a few people sat in the conference hall, and they sat around the long table, their faces seemed a little solemn.
"So, the Faceless Man also failed?" At this time, a middle-aged man sitting in the top position spoke, his voice low and majestic, with a little dissatisfaction in his tone. He was obviously very concerned about the Faceless Man's failure.
The middle-aged man had short brown hair and a cold face, and invisibly he had the aura of a superior. He sat in the top position, and was the highest among the few.
But one thing is certain: he sent the Faceless Man, so he is the real mastermind behind it.
"Master, this incident happened a little unexpectedly. If that person had not appeared, the faceless person would have succeeded!" Seeing that the middle-aged man's face was not very good, a man sitting below quickly explained.
"That person? Could it be him again?" The middle-aged man frowned slightly, as if he already knew the identity of "that person", that is, Lu Haocang.
"That's right, it was because of his appearance that the identity of the Faceless Man was exposed, and ultimately the mission failed!"
"Agula, this guy is really a big trouble. I didn't expect that he not only had the noble status of the Yitvallan family, but also Benjamin's master. I have a premonition that if he is not removed, the future will be a major obstacle in the plan!" The middle-aged man stretched out his finger, tapped the table, and said extremely serious.
"Jefferson, it seems that the plan is going on a little hindering. I hope you don't affect the final plan because of this. In that case, the 'adult' will be very unhappy." At the far end of the conference table, a man wearing a black cloak sat with a cold and weird breath and said to the middle-aged man, with a warning in his tone.
From the conversation between the two, it can be seen that the middle-aged man is Jefferson Thorus, the contemporary head of the Thorus family.
Siana's inference was not wrong. It was the Thorus family who arranged for the faceless to go to the Rensat family to do assassination work.
"You don't need to remind you of this. Your loyalty to 'Mr.' You are not the only one!" Earl Jefferson was not interested in the mysterious cloaked man, and looked at the other party coldly and responded.
"I'm just reminding you that you have failed once. It's really disappointing to have arranged so many things for the ruling meeting, but not convicted Agula." The man in the cloak sneered and mocked, bringing out the results of the ruling meeting to tell the story.
Obviously, everything that was decided was arranged by the Thorus family, and Lina's false accusations were instructed by Earl Jefferson.
"Hmph! You did a good thing the day before the ruling meeting, thinking I didn't know anything? I couldn't assassinate Agula, are you qualified to say to me?" Earl Jefferson faced tit-for-tat. According to the intelligence website of the Thorus family, he already knew that the assassination of Lu Haocang the day before the ruling meeting was done by the cloaked man, but unfortunately he did not succeed.
"It's fine if you don't succeed, but you also led the guard regiment. If you want to influence the final plan, that's also you!" Earl Jefferson said in a deep voice.
"You!" The cape man was speechless for a moment. It was indeed his own problem if he failed to succeed in the assassination, and it was also a fact that he led to the guard regiment.
"Remember, you are just an 'monitor'. Don't point fingers at what I do or take your own actions. I will not disappoint 'Mr.'" Earl Jefferson said, staring at the cloaked man.
"Okay, I hope your performance will not disappoint the 'adult' and make the final plan successful." The man in the cloak admitted his fear and snorted.
"Sir, what should we do next?" asked the man who spoke before.
"Well..." Earl Jefferson fell into thought.
"This Agula has powerful strength that is not like a silver-level adventurer. Being able to kill the faceless person should be hiding his true strength."
"And according to the character of that girl Siyana, I'm afraid she will try her best to win over Agula. No matter what the specific situation is, we are not in a hurry to take action in a short time. The Rensat family will sooner or later be our possession."
Earl Jefferson seemed determined to win the Lenzart family and was not in a hurry to take action in the near future.
"The 'Royal Banquet' is about to come, and everything will be decided by then. The wish of 'Mr.'" will be further realized!" Earl Jefferson's eyes shone brightly and said in a deep voice.
From the tone of Earl Jefferson, it can be seen that he cares very much about this "Royal Banquet". Before that, he can put aside a series of actions against the Lensat family and concentrate on preparing everything about the "Royal Banquet".
"But you, are the palace ready? Don't lose your chains then." Earl Jefferson looked at the cape man and asked coldly.
"Hey! Take care of your own, you don't have to worry about my affairs!" The cape man replied in a cold voice.
"I'll stop here today, remember, don't let the 'sir' down!" Seeing that there was nothing else, the cape man stood up and left the conference hall. He didn't forget to warn when he left.
When the cape man left, Earl Jefferson snorted coldly and said to himself: "It's just a dog assigned by the 'adult'. I really think that I can call me around with the identity of the 'monitor'? Humph!"
After his emotions calmed down, Earl Jefferson touched his chin and suddenly said, "Anna."
"I'm here, father." A lazy and charming voice sounded. A graceful and enchanting figure walked out in the dark corner of the conference hall, with a short red hair and a pair of scarlet eyes that were unforgettable. It was Angelina Ka I met in the Axon Underground Laboratory.
Unexpectedly, Angelina Ka actually called Earl Jefferson as her father, and everything before seemed confusing.
