Cathy, who was dressed in a black maid uniform, walked into the room and placed the lunch in front of Colin.
Of course, there was also deer blood wine for every meal.
After the food was placed on the table, Cathy did not leave as usual. Instead, she stood beside the round table with her hands behind her back.
Colin picked up the deerblood wine and poured himself a cup. After taking a sip, he asked Cathy, "What's the matter?
"What's wrong? Is there any news? "
Cathy nodded: "Yes, Sir Viscounts. Your family's army is now at the south gate of Silvermoon City."
"Okay, I got it." Colin nodded and continued to drink.
Cathy still did not leave. She hesitated for a moment before she said: "Sir, tomorrow night at the Half-Elven Palace … it will be a little dangerous. When the time comes, you can take Miss Vera's body and leave this place temporarily … "
Colin raised his head and looked at the little maid before he smiled: "I did not expect you to be so considerate of my safety."
"This is what I should do."
"Is that so?" Colin put down the wine glass and grabbed the little maid's collar before he pulled her in front of him.
Cathy screamed but she quickly shut her mouth.
Colin smiled coldly: "Do I look like a fool to you?"
Cathy quickly shook her head.
"Then how dare you use me like this?" Colin's tone was as cold as ice, causing the little maid to tremble in fear.
"I … I did not …"
"You did not?" Colin sneered: "You used the excuse of my safety to ask me to take Vera's body out of the palace. You wanted me to be your bait to attract the attention of the Silvermoon Guards.
How dare you play such a small trick in front of me?
Cathy Savoy, listen to me carefully.
You can either tell me your overall plan and I will consider cooperating with you.
Otherwise, I will go and look for the old king. I am sure he will be happy to arrange a large number of troops in the palace and wait for you to walk right into his trap. "
"I … I will talk … I will talk!" Cathy was a little girl and she was no match for Colin. She was so scared that she almost cried.
Only then did Colin let go of Cathy's collar, picked up the wine glass again, and drank while listening.
"Sir Viscounts, the Savoy family has already made the Duke Of Lute rebel.
However, although the Duke is the commander of the Silvermoon Guards, in fact, he only has absolute control over two regiments with a total of 12,000 people.
As for the other three regiments of the Silvermoon Guards, a total of 18,000 people, they were firmly controlled by the Modewin family.
Although we do not have the advantage in terms of numbers, we are still in the dark while the enemy is in the light.
If we launch a sudden attack, as long as we successfully attack the palace before the enemy can react and control the old king and Prince William, the House of Medea will not be able to do anything.
Therefore, in order to make this plan go smoothly, we hope that you can cooperate with us … "
Colin rubbed his chin as he silently judged the feasibility of the Savoy family's plan.
"So, you hope that I can take Vera's body and leave the palace so that I can help you take some of the firepower from the House of Medea?"
Cathy looked at Colin's face and said carefully, "Yes. After you leave the palace, you can go all the way to the south of the city. I am sure that the army outside the south gate will be there to meet you. "
Colin smiled and said, "Tell me the deployment of your troops and the route of your attack on the palace."
Cathy had a difficult expression on her face as she said, "This … I don't know about this …"
Colin rolled his eyes and said, "Then you can ask Sith for it. Without this, don't expect me to cooperate with you. "
Cathy gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay, I will help you ask him now!"
After that, she hurriedly left.
"Crack."
The coffin lid opened and Vera poked her head out, "Colin, are we really leaving the palace tomorrow night?"
"Why? Don't you want to leave?"
Vera nodded quickly, "Yes! I can't even change my clothes in here. It is so annoying. "
"That's good. Don't worry, I will arrange everything. "
"Okay, I trust you."
There was probably nothing that could stimulate a man's protective instincts more than a girl who trusted him wholeheartedly.
Colin had a warm smile on his face as he called out to Vera.
"Come on, let's eat."

The sun set in the west and rose in the east. It was a new day.
According to the original plan, today was supposed to be a joyous day. Prince Tupé and Miss Vera were getting married today.
However, the entire Silvermoon City was shrouded in an extremely depressing atmosphere today.
Some people were quietly waiting for the judgment of fate, some were eager to fight, and some were ignorant and thought that this was just a normal day …
Knock, knock, knock.
"Come in."
The Knights Of Telde pushed the door open and entered the room. They first bowed solemnly to the coffin placed in the middle of the room before bowing slightly to Colin. "Lord Viscounts, are you looking for me?"
Colin waved at the Knights Of Telde and waited for them to come closer before he handed them a roll of parchment.
"What is this?" The Knights Of Telde looked at the map of the palace with the deployment of the troops and the attack routes. They were suddenly puzzled.
"Do you know the Savoy family?"
"Yes. They used to be the half-elf royal family. "
"Well, this family is preparing to launch a coup tonight. The map in your hand is the specific arrangement for their attack on the palace."
The Knights Of Telde was stunned. They did not ask Colin how he had obtained such a confidential map. Instead, they shouted with red eyes, "My Lord, are we going to take this opportunity to avenge Miss Vera?"
Colin frowned and asked, "Knights Of Telde, have you forgotten your biggest responsibility?"
The Knights Of Telde finally calmed down and bowed their heads. "I am sorry, Lord Viscounts. I was too impulsive. I should have prioritized protecting Miss Vera's body. "
Colin nodded. "Well, it is good that you understand. The palace is not safe tonight. We cannot continue to stay here. So, we will rush out of the palace after the Savoy family launches the coup. "
"What about after we rush out of the palace? Which direction should we go out of the city? "
"My family's army is now outside the south gate."
"Okay, I understand."
Colin shook his head slowly. "No, you don't understand."
The Knights Of Telde were stunned and looked at Colin in confusion.
"My family's army is outside the south gate. The House of Medea and the Savoy family will of course think that we will run in the direction of the south gate.
So, we must not go to the south gate! "
The Knights Of Telde finally reacted. "Then, where should we go?"
Colin stretched out his finger and pointed at the map. "We will go to the north gate!"
"Okay! I will go and prepare the army for tonight's operation! "
"Be careful. Don't attract the attention of the Silvermoon Guards."
"Yes!"
Colin rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought as he watched the Knights Of Telde disappear outside the door.
However, he was not worried about tonight's operation. Instead, he was thinking about something else.
Last time in Queen Consort's palace, Colin stole a lot of blood from the Knights Of Telde while they were unconscious.
However, the strange thing was that the blood did not help him to advance to the fourth order.
However, he did feel that his body was heating up. So, it was not that the blood of the Knights Of Telde did not have any effect.
It should be that the dosage was not enough.
In fact, this was one of the reasons why Colin had to instigate this coup.
In addition to creating chaos so that he could take advantage of the chaos to take control of the half-elf kingdom, he also hoped to find the blood of high-level knights in this coup.
This should not be difficult.
After all, tonight was destined to be a night of bloodshed.
