Chapter 433: A bright future

Views:

The streets outside the hotel were filled with horse-drawn carriages, which roared past as people boarded. Lorenzo and his companions were the last group to depart. Unlike the Ingwig Orchestra, they had direct connection service from Nordro.

"Get ready to go. Before that, let me lay out the action plan."

It was not until the action was about to begin that Lorenzo told his plan of action. Several people stood on the street, just like chatting.

"Hercule, go to the dock and prepare for the reception."

Lorenzo first spoke to Hercule. Although Hercule had been so confident before, Lorenzo still had some doubts about him. He was not sure whether this guy would fail at the critical moment. After all, everyone had seen how he behaved on the boat before.

"Yes, I will take it to the coast if necessary."

Hercule was full of confidence.

Maruri is a port city. The dock only occupies a part of the coast. The location from the Theater Square to the shore is their second plan. The coast there is still undeveloped. Because it is full of reefs, few people are active there. If necessary, Hercule will send the ship there to pick them up, but the price is that it is very close to the naval base and is easy to attract attention.

"I just hope you don't pass out in the boat."

Lorenzo still didn't trust them very much, but he had no choice. The situation was far more complicated than he thought, and the existing manpower was not enough to solve the problem.

More importantly, Hercule is not suitable for fighting on the front battlefield. If he were asked to take up arms and fight, Eve could beat ten of him. Compared to these, this is the most suitable position for him.

"The next step is to divide our work. I, Hebod, and Irene will go to exchange the hostages. Eve and Red Falcon, you will be responsible for assassinating the Pope."

Lorenzo said to the others.

"We? Assassinate the Pope!"

Hong Jian lowered his voice, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Just me and her? Look at me like this."

As Hong Jian spoke, he straightened his chest, revealing his bandaged arm.

After several fights with Irene, he suffered new injuries before his old ones healed. In fact, Red Falcon no longer had strong combat capabilities. Like Irene, he only had one hand left that could move freely.

"Me? Can I?"

Eve also began to doubt herself.

For such a major event as assassinating the Pope, Lorenzo should have done it himself. Letting himself, an intern, and the half-crippled Red Falcon go, no matter how you look at it, he trusts himself too much.

"Lorenzo Holmes is alone. I could exchange hostages first and then assassinate the Pope, but this would be too tight and full of unexpected possibilities."

Lorenzo comforted Eve. He knew that it was too stressful for her to do such a thing.

"But your mission is actually the easiest. I have already tampered with the street lights. The explosion will cause panic. There will be many believers at the coronation ceremony. You can take advantage of this chaotic moment to launch the assassination."

Eve nodded as she listened to Lorenzo's words like a student.

"After all, the Pope is just an ordinary person, not a demon. As long as such a large piece of steel is driven into his brain, he will be dead."
