Chapter 188

    In fact, the so-called Council Hall of Wangdu is not the administrative organ of Cangshi Wangdu. In other words, it is not now. This huge circular building in the heart of the capital was originally built to serve as a court of justice. The grey lion king who built it was a king who believed in chivalry. During his reign, the natural disasters and wars inside and outside the Kingdom never stopped.


    Suffering and desperation enveloped the Kingdom at that time, and no inhabitant could guarantee that he could see the sun of tomorrow. In order to inspire his people, the king of that time set up this Council hall, where he dealt with government affairs, tried prisoners and betrayers, and even accepted the audience of foreign envoys. And all the people of the kingdom of Cang lion can enter this theater like building at any time to see how their King works.


    Even, in order to pay homage to the king''s diligence, many people will bring their own work tools to this chamber to work with their king. At that time, the Cangshi Kingdom did not need so many officials, nor did it have a variety of departments. If the king has a problem, he will directly ask the people around him, and people from all walks of life can always offer solutions for their king.


    This period of history may be one or two hundred years old. Even the most daring businessman would not dare to remonstrate with the king to demolish the building. Instead, the kings of all ages would allocate funds to repair the building in order to show their respect for the ancestor. A hundred years later, the humble circular Council hall became what it is now.


    The ten meter high stone exterior wall is enough to accommodate the entire Wangdu residents'' stepped auditorium, as well as the circular stage in the center of the Council hall where three operas can be performed at the same time. In fact, a few years ago, there was a proposal to change the Council hall into the king''s Theatre, but now the king has not agreed to this motion. So now the building is still just a huge, symbolic landmark.


    "I remember that there would be at least one Royal Guard patrolling around the chamber. Now it seems that the royal family has not paid enough attention to this place. The Royal assembly hall has turned into a meeting place for the dark people. " Said Lothar, looking at the quiet and frightening scenery around the chamber.


    "What''s this? Who''s going to keep an eye on this antique that few people go in during the day? I''m afraid the guards you mentioned are drunk in a nearby pub As a mercenary, net worm has passed through many countries even though she is young. In her eyes, this kind of historic site that sounds very valuable has always been a pile of stones without practical effect. Moreover, the maid did not think that the royal guards of Cang lion would be so loyal.


    One eye did not join in the discussion. The guards guarding the Council hall were bought by the dark residents who had come to prepare for the meeting place, or were knocked unconscious. Even if they were really molesting the maid in the tavern, as the webworm said, it doesn''t matter. All she knew was that inside the building was the dark side of the whole capital. If cheese''s plan really works, then tonight, one eye can really control the night of the king''s capital.


    Power and revenge are enough to make people lose themselves, and when they add up, even if they think that they have experienced countless ups and downs, they also unconsciously speed up the breathing.


    "Don''t worry, ma''am. Now the guys in this chamber are very sensitive to human feelings. We''re all just your attendants tonight. You can''t mess around. " Roland stepped forward and patted one eye on the shoulder, still holding the pipe in his mouth.


    The old man''s words let one eye calm down a little, although across the mask, but the latter still nodded to Luo Lan to show thanks. After taking a few deep breaths to calm his heart, the underground leader of the capital and the other three slowly walked into the silent building.


    "Are you here? The leaders of every family are waiting for you A gentle male voice came from one eye. As the four people turned their eyes to the sound, a dark group deeper than the normal shadow quickly gathered together to form the outline of a man.


    The black figure with human outline bowed slightly to one eye, and his manners were very standard. If it is not for the reason of appearance, I am afraid that this alone is enough to make people believe that he is a noble with a good family.


    "Introduce myself, my name is Jason, and I''m your guide tonight. Of course, you can call me shadow if you like


    One eye''s breathing stopped a little while hearing the word shadow, but soon returned to normal. Originally, the name of shadow is just a nickname. It is better to say that there are not too many people who take shadow as code name in the world.


    "I''ll call you Jason. Since you are my guide, please take me in. "


    "It''s my pleasure to serve you. My Lord. " Said Jason, taking two steps forward, gesturing to follow him with one eye.


    "Hello, what''s the origin of that guy who calls himself Jason, do you know?" Luosa, the last member of the team, whispered to the net worm around him. Although he could face the giant rat man, the count of black mountain didn''t think his hammer could smash a group of shadows.When the net worm heard the question of his companion, he showed a distressed expression and shook his head. Although she boasted that she had seen a lot, she did not know what the shadow of the human figure was. But their bewilderment did not last long, for Roland spoke.


    "I didn''t expect to meet a wizard here. I haven''t seen your kind on the mainland for many years. "


    Hearing the old man''s exclamation, Jason''s body trembled slightly.


    "It''s a great honor for you to know such a small role as me. Indeed, the number of my clansmen has been greatly reduced in recent years. "


    Roland slowly added some tobacco to his pipe, took a deep breath and vomited a cigarette ring.


    "After all, there is not much war in recent years. If there are fewer deaths, your life will be more difficult. It''s not like when you fought with the twilight moon a few years ago, you''re everywhere. "


    Hearing the old man''s words, Jason laughed twice, but did not reply. These words of Roland are not so much greetings as reminders of the danger of the so-called guide. And the two people at the back of the team don''t care about this.


    "If I remember correctly, it was a hundred years ago that the last time the countries on the mainland United against the twilight church?" As a person who is familiar with the history of war, Lothar does not believe his memory. Because if he remembers correctly, it means Roland is over 100 years old.


    “…… I''m afraid you remember correctly. Maybe the old man is talking about small local wars? " The webworm thought for a moment and replied.


    In this strange atmosphere, a group of people came out of the corridor on the ground floor of the assembly hall. The open space in front of them made it too late for them to continue the topic. They had come to the central stage of the chamber, and in the auditorium around the stage, countless pairs of eyes hidden in the dark were looking at them.
