Chapter 528: Deployment

Roning and David intercepted the speeding griffin rider in mid-air, and upon questioning, they learned that the counter-party had come precisely to deliver a letter to Roning.

Moreover, besides sending letters to him in Mist City, the royal griffin knight order had dispatched many griffin riders to deliver letters to various nobles, including the ancient mountains near the border, Ibn, Black Jade Bay, and so forth.

Roning took the letter, the content of which general implied that His Majesty Bruno had suffered an assassination and was on the verge of death, requiring major nobles like Roning to arrive at Gold Feather City before the tenth of this month to discuss important matters.

Although it said above that Bruno was dying, in Roning's view, he was already certain that a palace coup had occurred, and His Majesty the King was very likely no longer there.

To ask him to go to Gold Feather Palace now was clearly a trap.

Furthermore, he also had reason to suspect that the content of the letters given to Ibn, Ancient Mountain, and the others by the griffin riders might be different from his.

After all, Sanborn had said that there might be Alduin nobles and Moore City working together from the inside and outside to pinch and attack Mist Castle.

Thinking carefully, only the Ancient Mountain of Red Pine Castle and Earl Ibn of Twin Peaks Ridge had this capability.

These two were both knights who had stepped with half a foot into the Scorching Sun, and they also had many fierce generals under their hands; keeping Ruidar in Mist City seemed very necessary.

"My Lord, since the letter has already been delivered, then I will return now," the delivery griffin rider said.

Roning asked, "Are you Broll's subordinate?"

"Yes, Lord Duke."

"Did Broll ask you to deliver this letter, and additionally, how is he doing now?"

Bruno trusted Broll completely, and normally many matters would be handed to the latter to perform. If a palace coup occurred, Roning really wanted to know what kind of role Broll played in it.

"Lord Broll was heavily injured while protecting His Majesty and is currently recuperating. The affairs of the griffin knight order are temporarily hosted by His Highness the Crown Prince, and sending letters to various places is His Highness's arrangement."

Roning nodded slowly; it looked as though Broll had been stripped of power.

Next, he asked a few more questions, and although the counter-party answered truthfully, they were not clear about the specific matters within Gold Feather Palace.

"Alright, you may return."

Roning pondered silently in the air.

Garrett had arranged this series of actions as smoothly as flowing water, and the timing was grasped precisely.

However, with Roning's understanding of the counter-party, this proud, extremely conceited, and intolerant crown prince should not have the ability to plan and arrange so many things.

He was very likely supported and guided by someone, just like a reckless man who only knew how to fight suddenly gained a military advisor.

It looked as though the counter-party's action this time intended to directly carve up Black Mountain Ridge and Moonlight Valley, thoroughly crushing the Black Mountain Family.

"David, you return to North Wu Ridge for a trip now, have Commander Reig strengthen the territory's vigilance, perhaps someone will violate our port; if there are difficulties, let him go find Simon for help."

As Roning spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his spatial ring, his spiritual power controlling a pen to write rapidly upon it.

"Give this letter to Grand Magister Belora."

In the last naval battle, Torrents Island's ability to win a great victory was mainly credited to Carlos.

This time Carlos was not around, if that Earl of Screaming Island wanted to attack Torrents Island again, relying solely on Calada was obviously not enough.

Therefore, Roning wanted to ask Belora to help shelter Torrents Island, believing that with the attraction of a few seventh-tier dragon scales, the counter-party would certainly be willing to take action.

After Roning finished all this, he once again flew north at the fastest speed, but he did not go directly to Gold Feather City, but first made a trip to Black Mountain Castle.

At this time, Rulance had also received the transmission from the royal capital. With his experience and association with the unusual movements at the border, he knew that the weather over at the royal capital must have changed, and was immediately extremely anxious.

He had just boarded his griffin, preparing to go to North Wu Ridge to find Roning first, but he did not expect that Roning had already arrived at Black Mountain Castle one step ahead.

"You've received the news, right?"

Rulance brought Roning into the study and immediately said, "This time Gold Feather City is clearly a trap. It's enough for me to go, you cannot go!"

Roning said helplessly, "It won't do if I don't go, Carlos and Blanche are already in Gold Feather City."

Thud!

Rulance slammed the tabletop fiercely, his eyes wide with anger, "What? You say Blanche
