Chapter 1240: Chapter 744: The Prince and Another Prince (Part 1)_2 Chapter 1240: Chapter 744: The Prince and Another Prince (Part 1)_2 Black Duke’s tone remained calm as he lightly said, “All we have to do is to simplify the complicated situation.”
“Simplify the complicated situation?”
The Great Prince suddenly straightened his strong body on the throne, and his gray eyes brightened, “How exactly should we do that?”
“That is to temporarily ally with one of the other two princes and have them join forces to deal with the Lord of Cyan City and the Fifth Princess!”
Black Duke grinned ominously and exclaimed astonishingly, “In this way, the remaining prince, even if he wants to profit from the chaos, will have to weigh whether he has the ability to do so!”
“Sir, your thoughts are truly extraordinary, and it’s awe-inspiring.”
The Great Prince pondered for a while and hesitantly asked, “But is it feasible? If the ally turns against us, wouldn’t I be caught in a situation where I’ll be attacked on both sides?”
“Your Highness’s concern is reasonable, but you have overlooked one key factor.”
Black Duke’s unknown face hidden beneath the hooded cap revealed a chilling smile, replying, “As long as we find the right ally, such a situation will never occur.”
“The right ally?”
The Great Prince’s gray eyes shifted, as he gently stroked the golden throne’s armrest while pondering.
After a moment, the Great Prince with a furrowed brow looked up again, staring straight at the mysterious Black Duke, “Sir, do you mean to choose the Second Prince as the ally?”
“You are indeed wise and martial, Your Highness. You truly have the bearing of a great emperor, almost instantly understanding.”
Black Duke slowly nodded and started explaining, “Just like Your Highness, the Second Prince suffered heavy losses in the recent Eastern war, losing a large amount of territory, and naturally, they too despise the Lord of Cyan City.”
“From this battle, we can also see that the Lord of Cyan City is extremely cunning, far from ordinary, and according to the latest war report, two opposing Tier 5 Powerhouses actually appeared on the battlefield when the New Aristocracy’s army was defeated! This information is completely consistent with what we’ve previously learned from the White Knight and the Mountain Fortress Defense Battle reports!”
“Furthermore, Burt and Joshua, who are no longer mere generals of the Kingdom, have made the overall strength of the Lord of Cyan City and the Fifth Princess extremely impressive. Letting this huge threat continue to develop will lead to unimaginable consequences.”
Black Duke spoke calmly, but his words sent shivers down the spines of the traditional nobles present, “The Second Prince must also understand this simple truth. Therefore, at least until the common enemy, Lord of Cyan City and the Fifth Princess, are eliminated, the Second Prince will not turn against us.”
“So the rumors are true? I didn’t expect that those ants from another world would actually have not just one, but two Tier 5 Powerhouses at their command!”
The Great Prince furiously slapped the armrest of the throne, his face fierce, “Sooner or later, I will crush that despicable ant!”
After calming down for a moment, the Great Prince nodded thoughtfully, “In that case, at present, the only foolproof plan is to join forces with the Second Prince.”
“That’s right, Your Highness, please rest assured. Once the Lord of Cyan City and the Fifth Princess are annihilated, I have methods to strike first and eliminate the Second Prince’s New Aristocracy army.”
Black Duke nodded confidently, “By that time, the throne of Coldflame will be just within reach for Your Highness.”
“Then I’ll count on you, Sir.”
The Great Prince nodded slightly, then frowned again, “By the way, we must find the whereabouts of the White Knight as soon as possible. Although he is dull and unworthy, as a loyal dog, he is still very important for my road to the throne and cannot be easily abandoned.”
“Please rest assured, Your Highness. Sebel and I, along with the other ministers, are already searching with all our efforts.”
Black Duke bowed, nodding in agreement, “Although the White Knight’s strength is only at Tier 5 Third Star, as a Tier 5 Powerhouse, he is indeed enough to strike fear into ordinary opponents.”
“Then I’m relieved.”
The Great Prince nodded satisfactorily and leaned back onto the golden throne.
Not long after, he seemed to remember something and straightened up again, asking, “Since we are going to cooperate with the Second Prince, how should we contact him? To my knowledge, though he is still in the Royal Capital, his whereabouts are elusive, and it will take some work to find him.”
“Hehe, Your Highness need not worry about this.”The Black Duke maintained a calm demeanor, responding confidently, “Since we have already considered this aspect, the Second Prince, who is assisted by formidable powerhouses, must have thought of it as well.”
“From what I know, the mysterious people assisting the Second Prince possess remarkable mobility and bear grudges deeply. They will never just sit back and wait for the end.”
A touch of confidence emerged in the Black Duke’s tone, “If I’m not mistaken, we don’t need to look for them; they will come to us on their own.”
Sure enough, just as the Black Duke’s voice trailed off.
Accompanied by a flurry of hurried footsteps, a middle-aged messenger appeared at the entrance of the hall.
“Your Highness, the Second Prince, accompanied by a black-clothed powerhouse wearing a white mask and ten New Aristocracy strongmen, has suddenly appeared outside the castle’s main gate, asking to see you!”
The middle-aged messenger knelt on one knee, nervously and respectfully asking, “What should we do?”
“Oh? They really came?”
Upon hearing this, the traditional nobles seated below began to exchange glances.
In the increasingly intense power struggle in the Royal Capital, the traditional nobles and the New Aristocracy had long been mortal enemies. A chance encounter between them would inevitably result in bloodshed.
This was the private castle of the Crown Prince, with extremely comprehensive defense mechanisms. The number of Imperial Guards here was second only to the royal palace. But surprisingly, the other party dared to come directly with so many people!
It was known that the traditional nobles present alone were enough to easily rival two Tier 5 powerhouses!
“Your Highness, as Mr. Black is already here, why not simply get rid of the Second Prince?”
After thinking for a moment, the corpulent Sebel stepped forward, his greasy face full of murderous intent, “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”
“Yes, yes, we must reconsider!”
The other traditional noble ministers and generals chimed in, their faces full of murderous intent, filling the hall with an icy, violent atmosphere.
“Sir, what do you think?”
The Great Prince raised his hand to silence the traditional nobles before asking the Black Duke for his opinion.
“Your Highness, the Second Prince is cautious and meticulous. Since he has taken the initiative to approach us, he must be fully prepared.”
After brief contemplation, the Black Duke replied, “In my opinion, forming an alliance would be the best course of action. Otherwise, if he turns to the Fourth Prince, it would be disadvantageous to us.”
“Exactly what I need.”
The Great Prince nodded, somewhat helplessly, “If my insidious brother were so easily eliminated, I wouldn’t be in such a passive situation now.”
Upon finishing his words, the Great Prince ordered the other nobles, “If it’s true that they have come for the alliance, no one should make any rash moves. Understand?”
“Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince!”
The traditional nobles immediately saluted with their hands on their chests, responding uniformly.
In a short while, a tall and thin figure clad in resplendent golden robes appeared, surrounded by a formidable entourage, slowly entering from outside the hall.
“My dear brother, it has been too long.”
A mocking and sharp voice rang out.
Atop the magnificent hall, the tall and thin figure wearing resplendent golden robes gradually came into focus.
