~《》~    Chapter 60: It was a conspiracy at the beginning

"What's the matter?" Brenda tried to speak this sentence in a steady tone, but the trembling voice still betrayed his inner tension.

However, Chuck did not answer Brenda immediately, as if he hadn't heard it, but first pulled him to the bed and sat down, then took a light breath, looked at Brenda deeply, and said solemnly: "Brother, I really want to know what you think about this matter now?"

"What's the matter?" Brenda's heart was thumping, deliberately pretending not to understand Chuck's meaning.

Chuck saw his dodging eyes and suddenly stretched out his arms to grab Brenda's shoulder. Although his voice was small, his tone was very sincere: "Brother, you understand what I mean!"

"Chuck." Brenda suddenly took a strong breath, no longer dodged Chuck's gaze, and replied solemnly: "My dear brother, you just came back safely today... I think you should go to bed beautifully and forget all the unpleasant things."

"Big Brother!" Chuck's expression was solemn: "I'm the only one big brother like you!!"

"...Okay." Brenda sighed: "What the hell do you want to ask me?"

Chuck felt relieved when he saw Brenda's tone relaxed. Then he sorted out his thoughts and said again: "Brother, tell me, what do you think about this?"

This time, Brenda did not hide anymore and shook his head helplessly: "Chuck, you know me best. You know, although I, Brenda, are the thief leader, I have never been the kind of person to take advantage of the situation! To be honest, at the beginning, I was indeed confused by the temptation of money, but the more I thought about it, the more I regretted it, not because the other party was the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf with a respectable status, but because I was not ashamed of poisoning!"

"Brother, I will always be on your side!" Chuck's tone was firm: "Since you regret it, then we might as well..."

Speaking of this, Chuck did not continue, but gave Brenda a wink.

Brenda is also the one who knows Chuck the best. When he saw his wink, he understood what he meant. He couldn't help but frown and said seriously: "Chuck, stop talking. It is impossible to let me abandon the four hundred brothers under him. I promised them that one day, I will let them live a good life!

Although I regret taking over these things now, when I think that my brothers can live a good life in the future, I feel that my sacrifice is nothing! At worst, after getting the money, I took all my brothers away from Talvo and used the money to do some business together."

"Brother, you misunderstood me! I didn't mean that!" Chuck quickly explained.

Brenda raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"

"Brother, I..." Chuck didn't know where to start with this anxious situation: "Let me sort out my thoughts first."

Brenda nodded silently.

The surroundings returned to tranquility.

After a while, Chuck sighed softly: "Brother, do you know? Today, I didn't say a lot of words in front of that adult."

"What did you say?" Brenda's heart skipped a beat!

"Brother, we have no chance of winning at all. Everything is in the plan of the Snow Demon Wolf Duke." Chuck sighed and shook his head, his tone full of self-deprecation: "Do you really think that a low-level trick like a fake antidote can fool the Snow Demon Wolf Duke?"

"You mean..." Brenda's eyes widened and approached Chuck's eyes: "Is the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf a plan?"

"Yes, brother, you're right." Chuck looked into Brenda's eyes calmly and continued, "Also, Lord Fez and Commander Gale were not dead at all. I don't know what that adult did, nor why there was no army coming out to stop us when we went to plunder the farmers in the northern suburbs of Delan, but I saw these two people standing in front of me with my own eyes."

This passage was a huge blow to Brenda, which made him unable to help but widen his eyes, his face full of incredible expressions.

Before he could react, Chuck dropped a bombshell: "The most important thing is that the Snow Demon Wolf Duke was not poisoned by the sunset fog. I saw with my own eyes that there were no two pink thin lines on his arms, and everything was within his control!"

After saying this, Chuck stopped talking, staring at Brenda quietly, giving him some time to recover.

Brenda's chest was rising and falling rapidly, unable to hide the surging in his heart. Suddenly, he grabbed Chuck's collar and said with a complicated expression: "Chuk! Why didn't you say it earlier? If you said it in front of the adults at that time, we would also discuss countermeasures together!"

Speaking of this, Brenda's expression frightened, she let go Chuck out and was about to get out of bed: "No, I'll tell them the news now..."

"Brother! Don't go!" Chuck grabbed the corner of Brenda's clothes: "Are you not awake yet?"

"Wake up? What's the awakening?" Brenda turned around and walked towards Chuck: "If I don't tell you about this now, we'll probably be done! Since the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf takes the trick, it means that he must have known our hiding place. Maybe he has started to make arrangements now! Damn it! If you don't let the adults come up with a solution, all of us will die!"

"Brother, listen to me! Now the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf has started to arrange manpower. Even if we want to retreat now, it will be difficult for us to retreat. Moreover, do you think that adult will definitely find a solution for us after knowing the truth? I'm afraid the first person to run away is him, because he cannot reveal his identity!!"

Chuck seemed extremely anxious: "And we are just his pawns!"

Brenda was not a fool at first, but when he heard this amazing news, he didn't have time to react. But when he heard Chuck say this, he suddenly woke up and sat on the edge of the bed, holding his head with his hands, his expression a little broken.

Chuck couldn't bear to see Brenda like this, so he took a strong breath, patted his back gently, and said slowly: "Brother, like you, at the beginning, I was also blinded by money, but it was not until I woke up in the cell of the Lord of the Delan City Mansion and thought quietly in the cold water for a long time that I finally realized that all this was a conspiracy from the beginning."

"It was a conspiracy at the beginning?" Brenda turned his head and looked at Chuck, his eyes a little confused.

"Yes." Chuck nodded: "The Duke of Snow Demon Wolf is a great nobleman, and the only forces that can deal with the great nobleman... Just like the eldest brother thought, when I saw that adult, I knew why he was wrapped in black brie, with only a pair of eyes exposed. There was no doubt that he was a nobleman, but I think that his lack of courage to reveal his identity means that the power he represented was unwilling to conflict head-on with the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf."

Speaking of this, Chuck breathed: "So, he found us and wanted to use us to deal with the Snow Demon Wolf Duke who did not have much strength. In this way, we not only took the blame for him, but one of them might be wiped out, but he did not lose much, at most the five hundred people he brought!

Moreover, I think... the 10 million this adult will be wasted to a large extent.

Brother, you think, this adult obviously just took us as chess pieces and shields. If we fail to blackmail the Snow Demon Wolf Duke, then he doesn't have to pay out these ten million gold coins! If this matter is exposed, the forces behind him will definitely be anxious to clear away our relationship with us and help the Snow Demon Wolf Duke attack us.

At that time, under the joint attack of the two forces, do you think we will have any other way out?

If we successfully blackmail the imperial Snow Demon Wolf Duke, no matter what, he will not be able to swallow this breath. He will definitely suppress us after obtaining the antidote. At that time, this adult will kill someone by borrowing a knife. Not only will he not have to pay the 10 million gold coins, but he will also get the 10 million gold coins of the Snow Demon Wolf Duke. What reason does he not do this?"

Listening to Chuck's long speech, Brenda was completely stunned and murmured: "Then we... are only dead now..."

"No." Chuck seized this critical moment, shook his head vigorously, and continued to guide Brenda's thoughts: "Brother... listen to me, if, I say if... we really succeeded this time, not only did we get money from the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf, but also from this adult...

Then, according to your opinion, our four hundred brothers will leave Talvo, but even if we change our business in the future, our brothers will likely live a good life, but they will live in darkness for the rest of their lives, and they will not be able to stand up in the darkness. Even if we do not have a legal identity, we will still have to get rid of the various searches of the government. We will never be able to raise our heads openly and live."

Brenda's eyes were a little lost.

Chuck seized this opportunity and finally said, "I remember my elder brother once said that we thieves eat the food of youth and cannot work for a lifetime, but we have to accumulate the capital for retirement when we are young..."

"What should we do then? Can we still look back? We have no way out from the beginning!" Brenda interrupted Chuck, with helplessness and bitterness in his tone.

"No, brother, there is a chance to put it in front of us now." Chuck shook his head firmly, then suddenly touched Brenda's ear, whispered a long sentence, then raised his right hand and placed it in front of Brenda, pointing to the ring on that hand with the other hand:

"This is the space ring lent to me by Lord Snow Demon Wolf... Brother, promise me, we have no choice, promised me, and also seek a reliable backer for our four hundred brothers and hope for the second half of our lives!"

After saying this, Chuck stopped talking and looked at Brenda quietly, waiting for his answer.

Brenda looked at the space ring on Chuck's hand, then raised her head and looked at Chuck, her eyes gradually regaining its focus: "Chuck, you are right, I promise you. But... I refuse to help the Duke of Snow Demon Wolf to deal with the other four thieves... I can't do such a despicable thing. At most, at that time, I will let my brothers watch coldly, this is my biggest bottom line..."

Chuck looked at Brenda quietly, and said nothing, nodding gently.

...

Delan City, the lord's mansion, in the hall.

Lin Feng looked down at the five-story building, standing with Commander Gale, listening to a soldier in front of him telling the news coming from the front. Then, he withdrew his gaze and looked towards the Delanshan Mountains to the west. His eyes flashed slightly, and he said meaningfully: "No, Brenda, you can do it, you can do it."
