Chapter 436 Assassination Intelligence
"Boss, are you really leaving?"
Gillian, standing before him, asked anxiously.
Tuscarola nodded.
"Can't you take me with you?" Gillian asked eagerly.
"No," Tuscarola replied decisively.
Draco said the mission was very challenging.
The leader of the Assassin's Guild even told Tuscarola a story.
It is said that the women of the Lorraine family always possess special abilities.
It can be traced back to several decades ago, when the evildoers redefined the Northwest landscape.
That dangerous and terrifying power was what all the nobles in the western part of the kingdom feared.
However, no one could stand against the Duke of Lorraine.
Draco said that the current Duke of Brienne of Lorraine is also a dangerous woman.
Despite rumors that her power has declined significantly compared to previous dukes.
But Tuscarola didn't care; she felt that there weren't many kingdoms stronger than hers.
However, if Aaron knew about this idea, he would definitely get a flick on the forehead.
Aaron said that using something for oneself is the worst thing to do.
Therefore, Tuscarola decided to be careful and not be as casual as last time.
Tuscarola felt that the assassination mission in the basin was just a snack Draco casually gave her to get rid of her.
It was during this mission that Draco became aware of and acknowledged Tuscarola's abilities.
Therefore, this task was issued.
And this task seems quite difficult; I doubt Draco would dare assign it to anyone else.
Brianna Lorraine, Tuscarola silently kept this name in her heart.
Anne has always been very sensitive about her gender. If she knew that there was a duke who was also a woman, she would be very happy, wouldn't she?
No, Anne certainly knew; she was a herald, and heralds knew everything.
Anne once said she would be Tuscarola's personal herald, but the promise was as light as a falling leaf outside the window.
Ah, winter is almost here.
Anne is no longer Anne, and Lola is no longer Lola.
Tuscarola felt a bit cold and closed the window.
"Why?" Gillian asked at this moment.
Tuscarola blurted out, "Because you're in the way."
She was telling the truth.
Gillian is cunning and will definitely hold her back.
If it were Anne, she would definitely try to help Tuscarola.
Well, cunning and clever are not the same thing.
Gillian stopped arguing: "Around when will you be back?"
"have no idea."
Tuscarola really didn't know that if the task was indeed very difficult, then how long it would take to complete became unpredictable.
"But," Tuscarola said, "someone will take care of you."
"Who?" Gillian asked urgently.
"Man," Tuscarola replied.
In fact, Tuscarola didn't know exactly who it was either.
The promise was made by Draco, who said he would send someone.
The people sent will not only take care of Gillian's daily life, but will also impart some knowledge to her.
First, we need to correct Gillian's Kingdom English, as her accent is truly hilarious.
Then came the basics of the kingdom, as well as some historical knowledge.
Aaron often said, "Learn from the past to understand the present."
Reading history can help people master the game of power in the shortest amount of time.
Of course, Gillian is playing a game of killing.
Killing is only one aspect of power.
Perhaps right now, Gillian needs to kill in order to bring her fellow countrymen back to the New World.
But what happens next?
The ambitions of the Easterners will only grow ever larger; they will surely persecute more of their compatriots and seize their land.
If the Sea of Despair hadn't been so hopeless, perhaps the entire New World would have been in despair.
It is said that in the desperate naval battle, hundreds of ships were lost.
What devours ships and lives is not war, but the terrifying ocean itself.
When the people of the East finally master the means to conquer this ocean, nothing will be able to stop their ambitions of invasion.
Fighting might be one solution, but if it were Anne, she would definitely say that mediation is the best course of action.
Westerners lack the advanced technology here, and a head-on confrontation won't turn the tide.
Only by utilizing the rules of the game and using invisible forces to neutralize the enemy's offensive can the situation be changed.
That's exactly what Tuscarola wants Gillian to have control over.
Of course, given Gillian's talent, it seems a bit too much of a stretch.
However, as long as she can bring knowledge back to the New World, there will definitely be a turning point.
Tuscarola let Gillian stand there anxiously, even though she didn't need Gillian's consent.
Besides, Tuscarola didn't like this woman either.
She ignored Gillian and left the house to meet Draco.
Today, Draco will give Tuscarola some final clues about the new quest.
After that, Tuscarola was to set off to carry out the assassination.
Tuscarola met Draco at their usual spot, and the latter smiled and said:
"Ready, little Laura."
Tuscarola nodded.
"The new Duke of Lorraine has only recently ascended the throne," Draco said, "yet she has started a war. If fighting is a crime, then war is the most evil act in the world."
Tuscarola coldly replied, "I don't care why she's going to die. I just need to be sure I'm going to kill her. That's enough. And you, you need to give me some information."
"Lola, you really are a born killer," Draco said approvingly.
However, Tuscarola didn't think "assassin" was a good word.
But Annie seemed to like it; she was interested in that kind of cool stuff.
Ah, that's the Anne of the past. The Anne of today probably isn't as innocent and naive.
Draco immediately pulled out a piece of paper: "This is a map of Harvest City. It shows in detail everything from the city's buildings to the castle's structure."
Tuscarola opened the clue and felt that such detailed information could not have been collected in a short time. "Where did this information come from?" Tuscarola asked.
"This was gathered from previous missions," Draco said. "It took me a lot of effort to collect this intelligence!"
"The previous mission?" Tuscalola repeated.
"That is, the mission to assassinate the former duke," Draco said, "and you know, there's always a reason why a former duke is called a former duke."
Tuscarola asked, "If that's the case, why don't you just have that assassin carry out the current mission again?"
"I can't," Draco said.
Why?
"Because he's dead," Draco said sadly. "You should have known him, Instructor Wynne, my teacher, one of the founders of the Block League."
"How did he die?" Tuscarola asked, frowning.
"I don't know, but he should have died at the hands of the former or current Duke of Lorraine," Draco replied. "In fact, before Winn, seven assassins from the Cube Alliance had already died at the hands of that duchess, making it the biggest assassination attempt in the history of the Cube Alliance."
Only then did Tuscarola realize what was happening.
This mission seems quite dangerous—
