Chapter 56: Finally Seeing Van Cleef
Chapter 56: Finally meeting Van Cliff
Van Cliff, the great craftsman who designed the reconstruction of Stormwind City, the leader of the original stone fraternity, the current boss of the Defia Thieves Group, and the traitor leader entrenched in the wilderness of the western... Well, after saying so much, it is actually nonsense. The point is: In Leo's eyes, he is just an uncle with a split end.
When Leo found him, the uncle was sitting in the innermost room of the cabin. When he saw Leo coming in, Van Cliff was not panicked at all. This made Leo feel strange and secretly alert.
No matter how you look like Van Cliff looks fearless, no matter how you look like you are.
"You are very good to be able to come here through the obstruction of green skin, young man." Van Cliff nodded slightly to Leo, with a clear look of praise on his face.
Hey, this uncle is so calm. Leo was surprised. He clearly had a bad visitor. Why was Van Cliff not nervous at all?
"Van Cliff, you betrayed Stormwind City. Now is the time for you to accept the punishment of the kingdom." Leo looked righteous. Because he didn't know what Van Cliff was selling in the gourd, he didn't take the other party's words. No matter if Van Cliff said that he was a god, I just had three words: don't accept it.
"Betrayal?" The uncle from Zhongfen's mood fluctuated, "Boy, do you think this is what I am willing to do? My brothers and I worked hard to rebuild Stormwind City, but what did we get? Ah, what a great royal city, what a majestic royal city, it is the pride of Storm Kingdom, but the people who built it cannot even get wages. This is the hard-earned money of the brothers!"
"The nobles lived a luxurious life, but their brothers couldn't even have a full meal. When they started a luxurious banquet in the palace, we were not covered in clothes and food. I'll ask you, what would you do if it were you?"
If it were me? Leo said in his heart: I will naturally be willing to make the rebellion of his mother nobles.
"To be honest, your experience is sympathetic. It is not your fault that things will be like this. This is why so many powerful warriors in the kingdom refuse to accept the order to wipe out you in the wilderness of the West." Leo's words were full of sympathy for the Defia Brotherhood. To be honest, it is really no wonder that Van Cliff and the others are in such a case of officials forcing the people to rebel.
"But..." If things in the world have these two words, then the exact opposite changes will happen next, "Van Cliff, ask yourself, is the current Defia still the Defia Brotherhood when it was first established?"
"From the beginning of your selling of human interests to venture capital firms, you are getting farther away from your original intention. The increasingly large Defia Brotherhood has crept into too many real criminals. You have gone from just seeking a place to get a living and fed to a sin organization that plunders the entire western part of the Kingdom and murdered and set fires. The larger the Defia Brotherhood, the more people it will be harmed."
"Look at the current western wilderness, haha, the western wilderness, the original western granary has become the western wilderness with your efforts. This is a great achievement. The enemies of the kingdom will regard you as heroes."
Leo's words hit Van Cliff's heart. In fact, he was not unaware of these situations. Van Cliff knew that problems would occur when the Difia Brotherhood was expanding, but the situation at that time did not allow Van Cliff to make more choices. The newly established Difia Brotherhood was too weak, so weak that any Kingdom army could defeat them. In order to ensure that there was no tragedy of being wiped out by the Kingdom Army, Van Cliff had to wave to everyone and refuse everyone. The Difia Brotherhood was not allowed to do anything if there was a problem.
When Van Cliff woke up, the situation was no longer something he could control. At this time, Greenskin found him. As the manager of the venture capital company, Greenskin's eloquence was very good. At that time, Van Cliff was just a stonemason leader who had just become the leader of a bandit. How could he withstand Greenskin's foolings? Van Cliff, who used the power of the venture capital company to regain control of the Brotherhood, later discovered that he followed Greenskin's advice and was simply to attract the wolf into the house. Just when Van Cliff was worried about this, Greenskin made new arrangements for his revenge mentality.
Under the instigation of Green Skin, Van Cliff, who was already overwhelmed by hatred, was determined to take revenge and had forgotten his ideals and his ambitions when building Stormwind City. When the residents of the western wilderness formed the People's Army to fight him, Van Cliff was no longer the hero who could not be lewd for his brother's wealth and mightyness.
"You have forgotten your original ideals and the real reason for your resistance. It is not for hatred but for the truth, but for the sake of justice for yourself."
Van Cliff's face turned red, feeling like he was said to be angry afterwards. The uncle with a split end roared at Leo: "Get out! You a lackey of the Stormwind City nobles, our behavior is just."
"Justice?" Leo's face was filled with a strong sarcasm, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want by shouting justice. Look at the residents of the Western wilderness now. Who ruined their lives? You, you, Van Cliff!"
"What do you know? The corrupt behavior of the nobles must be stopped, otherwise the entire Storm Kingdom will fall into the abyss. We need to accumulate strength, and a little price is just to win better."
"Why do you think you need the people in the west of the Kingdom to sacrifice your happiness? What is the difference between your behavior like this and the corrupt nobles you mentioned?" Leo pointed to Van Cliff and asked word by word, "Why!!"
Leo's questioning left Van Cliff speechless. Didn't the nobles in Stormwind demand that they make sacrifices for the kingdom for various reasons? Now they have to sacrifice the residents of the western wilderness to fulfill their careers in essence, there is no difference from the aristocrats' actions at the time.
Taking a deep breath, Van Cliff calmed down again.
In fact, no matter whether it is right or wrong, it is impossible for him to look back at this point. Even if he knows it is wrong, he must tell himself that it is correct and believe it firmly. Because he must give himself a reason to continue.
"The Stormwind City is a good move. I use a powerful paladin to attract our attention on the surface, but secretly I sent you to perform the assassination, one light and one dark. It seems that the Holy Light Cathedral and the MI7 took action at the same time. Is this my honor?"
Leo rolled his eyes at Van Cliff's understanding, please, uncle, don't respect yourself so much, okay? Just like you, no matter which one is serious, MI7 or the Cathedral of Holy Light, you can destroy you in ten days. If it weren't for Scarlett's little girl who would have called to kill me as soon as she met, wouldn't my brother come to the Death Mining alone to play the game of breaking into the tiger's den with you? This game is not good, but people will die.
"No matter what your original intention is, no matter whether your actions are voluntary or not, it is an ironclad fact that you have caused irreparable damage to the kingdom. In this case, Van Cliff, you should accept sanctions." Leo was not going to talk to Van Cliff again. In any case, Van Cliff, as the rebel leader, must die, and Stormwind City must get an explanation. As for other fraternity members of the kingdom, the compensation will be made, and the resettlement will be made.
"Well said, but it's meaningless!"
As soon as Van Cliff finished speaking, something happened suddenly.
