Chapter 244: The Plan to Kill Tina
Chapter 244: The Plan to Kill Tina
The night before the 50th loop of the Tina storyline, in a secret chamber within the Oran City Lord's mansion.
City Lord Claude, Gracie Windsor, and Franken Jean, all sixth-rank powerhouses, gathered for a secret meeting.
Once the two guests were seated, City Lord Claude, with a serious expression, said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the demonstrations and riots within the city are escalating. Tina Garcia is funding these disturbances heavily, and the situation is getting out of control. I believe we need to take action!"
Franken and Gracie exchanged glances.
However, they didn't respond immediately. Franken asked cautiously, "My Lord, there's something I've been wondering about. Could you clarify it for me?"
"Of course, what is it?"
"Well, it's like this," Franken carefully phrased his question. "Why is Tina Garcia stirring up conflict between the nobles and the commoners? What is her true objective?"
"Regarding that," City Lord Claude stroked his chin and leaned back in his chair, "I believe it has something to do with a dimensional adventurer named 'Counters' who is close to her."
With a wave of his hand, a clear magical image appeared on the wall, showing none other than Su Yu.
"Counters is a special envoy of the Princess and a favorite of hers. Tina's actions are likely influenced by the Princess."
"You mean, Tina is acting on the Princess's orders?" Franken was taken aback. He hadn't considered that possibility before.
Gracie, on the other hand, had thought about it. She knew about Counters and had suspected that Tina's recent activities in Oran City might be at the Princess's behest.
But she still had her doubts.
She asked, "My Lord, the Imperial Army is retreating on the front lines, and Forest City has already fallen. At this critical moment, shouldn't the Princess be ensuring stability in the rear? Why would she let Tina cause chaos in Oran City?"
Claude smiled. "I had the same confusion until one of my subordinates, a dimensional adventurer named 'Sky Dragon,' provided an analysis. Would you like me to call her in, ladies and gentlemen?"
"Sky Dragon?" Gracie nodded. "I've heard of her. Your second daughter seems to like her. We can hear what she has to say."
Franken shrugged indifferently.
With their agreement, Claude signaled the butler at the chamber's entrance.
Five minutes later, Sky Dragon entered the chamber, taking small, quick steps.
Facing the three sixth-rank powerhouses, she spoke slowly and clearly, "Based on my analysis, the former Emperor lost half the empire because he lost the people's support. Therefore, the Princess is very mindful of 'public sentiment.'"
"The Princess is using Tina Garcia to create chaos in Oran City. Once the Princess arrives, she can easily win over the people by promising more educational opportunities, increasing taxes on the nobles, and reducing the burdens on the commoners. It's that simple."
Gracie exhaled deeply, leaning back in her chair. "Oh, so that's what it is."
Franken nodded in agreement. "The girl makes a good point... The Princess is quite the strategist! She's already extending her influence before even setting foot here!"
After her analysis, Sky Dragon retreated behind the City Lord.
Lord Claude cleared his throat and fixed a serious gaze on the two people before him. "The Princess's actions are essentially undermining the interests of the nobility of Orlan City to win the hearts of the people."
"If this continues, both the Princess and the common folk will benefit, but we will suffer losses and face backlash. So, we need to take action."
"What do you plan to do?" Gracie and Franken looked at Claude with grave expressions.
"I believe we must unite and eliminate Tina Garcia!" Claude declared, a fierce glint in his eyes.
"What did you say?" Gracie and Franken were taken aback.
The young sky dragon girl's mouth fell open in shock, her eyes fixed on Claude's back.
They never expected Lord Claude to make such a drastic decision.
Claude spoke calmly, "This isn't a rash decision, my friends. Think about it—once we eliminate Tina, all our problems will be solved!"
"After Tina is gone, the protests in the city will immediately subside, and when the Princess arrives, she won't be able to 'follow public opinion' to harm our interests. Most importantly, the Princess won't punish us for a dead person."
"Cal down, Claude!" Gracie pressed her hands down, her mind racing.
The idea of "uniting to kill Tina" was a massive decision, one that could significantly impact the entire situation. It couldn't be made lightly.
"Gracie, I am calm," Claude insisted, staring at her. "If we kill Tina, your Windsor family can reclaim the Unicorn Knights and regain control of Unicorn Town."
Then he turned to Franken, "Franken, if you agree to join us, I will convince all the city's nobles to pool our resources and buy the seventh-tier [Eye of the Inferno Dragon] from Pearl City. You've wanted it for a long time, haven't you?"
"[Eye of the Inferno Dragon]?" Franken's eyes lit up, his heart racing.
While the [Eye of the Inferno Dragon] wouldn't help him break through the seventh tier, it could boost his strength by 30% to 40%. He couldn't help but be tempted!
Gracie, however, was in a dilemma.
Reclaiming Unicorn Town and the Unicorn Knights would be a huge boon for her family. But Tina was the "Chosen One." Could they really kill her? What if something went wrong?
Franken voiced Gracie's concern, "Lord Claude, can the three of us really eliminate Tina? What if she escapes? That would be a big problem."
"Relax," Lord Claude crossed his arms, a confident smile spreading across his face. "I've brought in a powerful ally. With them, Tina has a 100% chance of not escaping!"
He then turned to the sky dragon behind him, "Sky Dragon?"
"Ah, I'm here!" the sky dragon quickly replied.
"Keep a close eye on Tina Garcia's movements and report to me promptly. Of course, your reward is guaranteed."
"Mission accomplished!" the sky dragon declared.
Meanwhile, ten kilometers away at the Unicorn Garrison, Su Yu reviewed the private message from the sky dragon, nodding slightly. "Claude wants to kill Tina? This must be the final task of the second phase."
"But who is that 'powerful ally'?"
