Chapter 1367

As the two sides clashed in battle, Everett had already arrived in Nerovia with a group of martial artists.

The timing had been carefully calculated. At this moment, Nerovia was without capable leadership. While the officials were loyal to Nicholas, nearly all of the fighting men had been sent out to battle, leaving only a thousand men and a few city guards behind.

With Hayden’s emblem in hand, Everett made his way directly to the government office. He first dismissed the governor and took control of the office.

At the same time, Eustace led several of his bodyguards and merchant convoys to Nerovia. The battle for Nerovía was one of the easiest to win. With Hayden’s emblem in hand, Nicholas‘ residence, Riverton Estate, was now sealed off.

Now, Riverton Estate no longer had any of Hayden’s people. All the former officials had been driven out to the countryside.

Once Everett had taken control of the government office, he led his men straight to Riverton Estate. They captured every aide and servant, subjecting them to intense interrogation. Under harsh questioning, they revealed all the secret codes they had used. Even the carrier pigeons that were raised by Clifford were seized.

Each pigeon had a specific flight route, and a few were used exclusively to communicate with Nicholas.

If Clifford’s forces were victorious, a red silk ribbon would be tied to the pigeon’s leg. If they suffered a defeat, a white ribbon would replace it. In cases where the battle’s outcome was unclear, the pigeons would simply be released with no markings.
