127 Bait and hook
Rudy stood up with a smile on his face, nodded to the somewhat frustrated Lieutenant Colonel Lucas, and then turned around and walked out of the deputy commander's office.
With a click, Rudy closed the door gently, and the smile on his face immediately faded.
Although it seemed that he had just repelled Lieutenant Colonel Lucas' oppression forcefully.
But for Rudy, it was only a temporary pleasure.
As Lieutenant Colonel Lucas said, as long as he is the deputy leader of the Knights, he will always have the opportunity to cause trouble for Rudy. Even if he can't kill anyone, he will be quite annoying.
"Lieutenant Colonel Lucas!" Rudy murmured in a low voice, looking back at the door number of the office behind him, with a murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
At this time, in the office next to the door, Lieutenant Colonel Lucas was also staring at the wooden door that had just been closed.
He didn't slam the door and leave, nor did he slam the door harder to express his dissatisfaction.
There was only a soft "click" sound, which made Lieutenant Colonel Lucas even more worried.
Until the footsteps outside the door faded away, Lieutenant Colonel Lucas still couldn't let go, and his eyes became even more sinister.
Rudy returns to the office.
In this meeting just now, he and Lieutenant Colonel Lucas had already broken up.
In fact, Rudy has always been a little confused as to why Lieutenant Colonel Lucas stares at him. Logically speaking, there is no deep hatred between them.
If it's just jealousy, at most you can put some obstacles in the way at work, and it shouldn't lead to a life-or-death situation.
But this time, Lieutenant Colonel Lucas made it clear that he planned to kill him.
This can be seen from the fact that he asked Rudy to deal with the Hal sect before.
Because Lieutenant Colonel Lucas does not know Rudy's true strength, if Rudy is used to deal with the Hal sect according to his arrangement, even if Rudy successfully completes the task, he will become a thorn in the side of the Hal sect.
If you look back, you will die without any suspense under the endless revenge methods of the Har sect.
If Rudy sees through it and doesn't provoke the Hal sect, he will find a way to remove Rudy as captain first by charging him with dereliction of duty.
But Lieutenant Colonel Lucas didn't expect that Rudy would directly carry him out of the Noble Affairs Committee, which caught him off guard.
This is not because Lieutenant Colonel Lucas has not thought carefully. At his age, he has not yet inherited the title, so it is not surprising that he would habitually ignore the Noble Affairs Committee.
The existence of the Noble Affairs Committee itself is not very high. Even if there is a conflict between two noble families, it will not be brought to the committee until the end.
Because once the committee is needed to come forward, it is tantamount to admitting one's incompetence in disguise, unable to protect honor in the face of hostile nobles.
Therefore, once any noble takes the initiative to seek help from the Noble Affairs Committee, even if he can get a fair ruling at that time, it will expose the weakness of the family and attract the covetousness of more enemies. To a certain extent, it can be said that drinking poison to quench thirst.
Only people like Rudy, whose family fortune has been ruined and simply broken, would unscrupulously use the ruling power of the Noble Affairs Committee.
However, as of now, the reason is no longer important.
Rudy was well aware of Lieutenant Colonel Lucas's sinister intentions, and had already made up his mind to get rid of Lieutenant Colonel Lucas.
It's just that the other party's identity is special. As the deputy leader of the Greentown Knights, he is also from a noble family, and his own strength is not weak.
With Rudy's current strength, it is not difficult to kill Lieutenant Colonel Lucas even without using the skill experience card. But killing is easy, but the aftermath is not easy.
There is no way that the deputy leader of a city's knights dies in an unknown way.
If Rudy wants to take action, he must have a foolproof strategy and wait patiently for the opportunity.
At this moment, Rudy suddenly received a report from Blake that an earth magician appeared at the construction site of the Fire Monument.
Rudy frowned: "Sure enough, we still need to use the extraordinary ones!"
Once earth magicians join, the efficiency of digging the foundation will be greatly improved.
"We can't wait any longer, it's time to reveal the secret." Rudy immediately ordered Black to pass the specific location of the sealed object to Viscount Tyrese according to the previous plan.
This doesn't need to be complicated, just let a crow drop a note to Viscount Tyrese's house.
This will definitely make Viscount Tyrese suspicious.
But that doesn't matter, as long as the sealed object buried underground is attractive enough, Viscount Tyrese will definitely take the risk after verifying it.
It doesn't matter if Rudy's prediction is wrong or some other accident occurs.
The worst result is that the sealed object falls directly into the hands of the officials, causing Rudy to lose his last chance to fish in troubled waters.
After giving Blake the order, Rudy relaxed and leaned back on the high-backed chair.
All he could do had been done, and the only thing he needed now was to wait patiently to see what Viscount Tyrese's reaction would be.
Rudy did not pay special attention to Viscount Tyrese's reaction, nor did he ask Black to send the crow over.
Just keep an eye on the monument.
Sure enough, just half an hour later, the bearded Bunny made an excuse to go to the monument's construction site.
Blake, who stayed there in person, immediately reported to Rudy.
Rudy knew very well that Bearded Bonnie must have received orders from Viscount Tyrese.
But the bearded Bonnie didn't stay long, and then left in a hurry.
The existence of the underground sealed object should have been confirmed through some means.
Then, at around four o'clock in the afternoon.
A fire suddenly broke out on the south side of the central area of Greenton City.
Because of the previous fire and the upcoming inspection by the Deputy Prime Minister, the whole city of Glinton was in a state of panic.
If there is another fire at this time, there is no doubt that the current mayor will not have to do it.
Therefore, the fire suddenly broke out again, and it happened in the central area of the city, which immediately caused the entire Greentown city to feel like a frying pan.
The knights, patrols, extraordinary people directly under the city hall, and even the troops stationed nearby were all alerted...
At the same time, the construction site of the monument was built.
This is probably the only place that has not been affected. An earth magician has led more than 30 workers and has dug a large hole nearly four meters deep in the ground.
According to this progress, if we keep working all night, we will be able to dig out the sealed object buried underground by tomorrow morning at best.
Next to the big pit, a heavy-duty carriage transported construction materials and hauled away the excavated soil. The project progressed in an orderly manner.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden "bang"!
A carriage that had just arrived was not far away and fell into the collapsed road without any warning.
Because of the previous fire, this is the only road on the construction site that can currently carry heavy-duty carriages.
A sudden collapse accident, even if there are no casualties, will inevitably affect the construction progress of the monument.
Chapter completed!
