Chapter 130: Have you been tricked? Deserve it!
[You are targeted by Jack Kim Adros’ murderous intent. Comment: What would you think if I said that he only showed a tiny hint of murderous intention towards you? Reward: +30 survival points. 】
Killing intent rewards 30 survival points...
or just a trace?
This is probably the most powerful extraordinary person that Wei En has seen so far, and who showed murderous intent towards him!
However, why did Black Jack pretend to be Old Jack and go to the Secret Mixing Department?
Shouldn't he be over in Basil's Quarter?
Wayne glanced around calmly, his eyes not stopping on anyone, but the expressions of everyone in the office were clearly imprinted in his mind.
Lacey with a solemn expression, Marco with anger, Carly with confusion, Tina who is still calm, and old Jack with a faint smile on his lips... I remember
Claire said - Black Jack arrives in Cardiff In the city-state of St, in addition to the forbidden object, we also need to find someone. Is that person in the Secret Adjustment Department?
who is it?
boom!
At this time, Marco smashed the table again and said angrily: "So now, why don't you stop them? Just watch them destroy the peace of the city..." "That's enough!"
Lacey
shouted, holding up his hands. He clenched his fist and glared at him, "Now the whole city-state is preaching about the incompetence of the Parliament. Don't you still know who they are?" "
It's the nobles! It's the family behind you, it's Ernst, it's Seres...them The purpose is to force Samir to step down as consul!"
"I know all this, but," Marco gritted his teeth: "As long as the Secret Service is involved, the Parliament can definitely compete with the Noble Committee..." "Then what
? ? Go over and clean up the mess for Samir?"
"Mess?" Marco's angry face showed a hint of astonishment, "Wha, what do you mean?"
Lacey sighed, "You really don't know anything... But that's right. You are often nostalgic for the city that never sleeps. How could you notice this?" "Do you know why
Lydia didn't return to the Secret Division? Because she Not as stupid as you!"
"Tell me clearly, what's going on?!"
Marco's face turned ugly. He didn't want to hear Lidia's name, let alone the words Nascimento family, and he felt in his heart There was an absurd feeling of betrayal.
A little doubt also flashed across Wei En's face. Is there another reason why the secret coordinator chose to watch?
Does this mean that the senior officials are not on Samir’s side?
"Lacie, it's time to let them know the truth," Old Jack said, seemingly pointing out: "It's not good to fight with your heart on your mind."
Huh?
the truth?
You, a newcomer to the city of Custer, know the truth about these things. Why don’t I believe it?
But thinking about it, Wei En immediately nodded in agreement, "Captain, I also want to know."
After saying that, he did not forget to show a big smile to 'Old Jack'.
Well, to smile,
it must be a very bright smile...
"Me too," Carly also said.
I'm afraid that among everyone here, except Tina, who was indifferent to everything, she was the only one who was confused.
Wasn't Consul Samir appointed by the Klanders?
Why do Custer's nobles want him to step down?
"So, what is Si Li's plan?"
Looking at everyone's gaze, Lacey leaned on the high-backed chair, shook his head and said, "Actually, Si Li had already expected this incident, and it was beyond your imagination. ."
"Early?"
"Ever since Director Alais took office, he expected such a day to happen."
"Taking office..." Marco thought, "Seventeen years ago?"
"Well, that was after that." Lacey looked at Old Jack, "I believe you know better. After that time, Si Li has been investigating the people behind the scenes. ."
Old Jack took another sip of wine and sighed, "I know."
Wayne glanced at him and continued, I want to know what you always know?
"What does that have to do with now?" Marco asked with a frown.
"Well," Lacey nodded, "Ever since the Investigation Department was reorganized, we have been investigating those people. In the end, all the clues point to one person, no, to a group of people." "Who is it?" "The Ernst
family
! "
They..."
Marco had no doubts. He knew clearly that there were not many people in the entire Custer City who had the ability to cause the demonic clown to get out of control, but the Ernst family definitely could!
"The purpose... consul?"
"It is the position of consul!" Lacey's eyes turned cold, "Do you still remember what rewards the royal family gave to the twenty-four meritorious families?" "Hereditary
title, hereditary fiefdom, hereditary title, hereditary fiefdom, hereditary title. ...Do they want to take back Custer City State?"
At this point, Marco reacted.
"This is impossible - the consul was appointed by Chatelain, and they have no right to interfere. Even if it is not Samir, it cannot be the Ernst family!" "Why
not?" Lacey sneered: "You know, in One hundred and twenty years ago, the city-state of Custer was the fiefdom of the Ernst family." "
But, but they made such a big mistake at that time, and it is impossible for Clander to agree." "
So much time has passed. , sins and mistakes have long been washed away. As long as they make great contributions, the royal family will not refuse a meritorious family like Ernst to return to glory, right?" "
Meritors?" Marco was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "How can you have such a big credit now? It's not during the war?"
"Already."
"What?"
"They found the mastermind behind that bard's prophecy!"
Bard's prophecy?
Wei En was startled, as if he had heard it somewhere...
He remembered, it was the time at the Serres family manor - I remember Marco said at that time that the reason why the Basques perished was because a pirate pretended to be a bard. The poet made a prophecy.
"The Vazquez one?" Marco also thought about it, "Have they found it? The Chatelain royal family has been offering a reward for so long..." "What
if I say that the prophecy was led by the Ernst family?"
Lacey asked rhetorically. One sentence, then as if asking and answering himself, "Or, more accurately, did they instruct others to deliver that prophecy?" "
They..." Marco's eyes widened, finding it difficult to accept this possibility.
The others had the same reaction, except for Old Jack, who looked like he already knew everything.
After hearing her words, Wei En also secretly praised the Ernst family's operation, which was very smooth.
If his guess was correct, they concocted this prophecy at that time, and they wanted to achieve meritorious service through war, right?
Something must have gone wrong later, causing their plan to fail.
"Wait," Carly raised her hand, then asked apologetically: "I want to ask Ernst, are they not afraid that others will know the truth?" "Good question," Old
Jack looked at her approvingly, " The key is that the leader they found can take on all this."
"That's right," Lacey nodded. "They introduced a scapegoat, no, two!"
"Two?"
"Well, one of them It's the Seres family, and the other one..." Lacey looked at everyone's reactions and didn't show off, "It's the Black Pearl!"
"The Seres family? Black Pearl?"
"Black Pearl?!" Old Jack almost spit out a mouthful of wine and coughed: "Are you sure they want the people on the Black Pearl to take the blame?" However, after seeing the looks of others looking over,
he quickly continued: "I mean, they asked the Black Pearl to be the scapegoat. Well... it's very thoughtful." "It's
indeed very thoughtful," Lacey and others said without any doubts about Old Jack's words.
Only Wei En knew why he had such a big reaction and secretly pouted.
I thought you knew everything?
Now that you know that you are the one being tricked, are you shocked?
Deserve it!
"I don't understand, how did the Ernst family do it?" Marco thought for a moment and asked, "The Seres family is not a fool and doesn't resist?" "
Marco, you are really..."
Lacey looked at him His eyes seemed to be looking at an idiot, "You Nascimento family are also Custer's nobles. Don't you understand the principle of profit first?" "The Serres family is just a rising
star in recent years. Regardless of status, inheritance, or wealth, , glory cannot be compared with the Ernst family, and if they want to enter that circle, how can they do it without paying something?" "
Profits..." Marco did not refute. Compared with other people in the family, he really did not put his mind to it. in internal family affairs.
"I don't know what kind of deal there is between them. But the Seres family has been so miserable recently because old Ernst is behind it."
Carly already understood the reason why the Ernst family did this, but she didn't Know how they do it.
"What happened to the Black Pearl?"
"Them?"
Lacey pondered: "According to Yegor, the pirate's origin was the Black Pearl, and they also appeared in Custer recently. He was taken advantage of by Ernst."
"Wayne, you should still remember the Collins steward of the Seres family, right? He was on the Black Pearl, which is ironclad evidence of their cooperation."
Wei En nodded cooperatively, "Yeah.
"
"Huh?"
"Sorry, sorry, I accidentally used too much force..." Old Jack raised the wine bottle that had been crushed and deformed, and gestured: "Go on, keep talking."
Wei En was secretly happy that this person was so A big reaction, maybe you are very angry, right?
Now that you know you were tricked by the Ernst family, will you still cooperate with them like this?
However, Wayne didn't take Black Jack's reaction to heart. He was more concerned about the so-called 'circle' that Lacey mentioned.
Does the 'circle' that the Seres family has to squeeze into even at such a high price refer to the Glory Society?
If so, he had to admit that the old Count Ernst, whom he had only seen at the Dawn Celebration, really had two brushes...
This was like selling someone, and the Seres family had to help count the money. Bar?
Tsk tsk, old Saiyam is so pitiful.
Not only had several sons died and the family property was lost, but he was now accused of being a traitor...
"In fact, Director Nifa has confirmed with the Clandestine City-State Secret Service that the Ernst family has already The incident has been reported."
Without waiting for others to ask, Lacey continued: "The content of their report is that the prophecy made twenty years ago was jointly made by the Seres family and the Black Pearl, with the purpose of robbing the Palestinians. A treasure in the hands of the Skers."
"Treasure?"
"It's a forbidden object, and it's in Custer. As for which one it is, the senior officials didn't say."
Forbidden object...
Wei En thought of seeing it before After a few things, I think about what Claire said last night. She was referring to the forbidden object 0-78 Rover's left eye?
Damn it,
are the Ernst family so capable that they have even plotted against the Church of Dawn?
At this time, Marco understood, "So, they did this... with the tacit approval of Klande?" "
Well, at least they have the support of some people behind them." "
But I still don't understand, since the senior officials have already Knowing the purpose of the Ernst family, why..." "Why not take action?" Lacey interrupted: "Then have you ever thought about why Director Alais chose to sacrifice himself?"
Marco smiled bitterly, "You Don't ask me, after listening to what you just said, I have already begun to doubt my own knowledge. What on earth was I thinking before..." This is
his truest thought now.
The Ernst family, or Lydia, including his Nascimento family...
He thought he knew their intentions in doing these things before, but now... He just wants to say that they were really stupid before!
"...It's the result of the compromise of the parliament!"
She was filled with indignation towards Director Alais who had just died.
What made it even more difficult for her to accept was that the Parliament would actually agree to the conditions of the Noble Committee and voluntarily give up Alais...
"What... Parliament?!"
Obviously, Marco couldn't accept the truth either, "Why would they do that? "
Hey, it's the order of Consul Samir. This morning, Director Alais found the secret order in the office."
So that's it!
Wei En suddenly understood, all his doubts were solved, and he probably understood the whole story.
They went around in such a big circle and involved so many people, just to get the fiefdom of Custer City State?
Director Alais, it’s really a pity... huh?
Wait, something is wrong!
He understood the purpose of the Black Pearl and the nobles.
But what happened to the Abyss Sect, the Despair Sect, the Eternal Life Society, and the Red Moon Church? !
Old Jack put down the wine bottle that he had crushed and laughed loudly: "Lacie, it doesn't look like you at all to be crying." "Crying
?" Lacey shook his head, "I was just thinking about what Cass would do next. What will happen to the special city-state?"
"A lot of people will probably die, who knows? Don't think so much, and don't worry about other people. In a word, if one comes, kill one, if two come, kill two!"
But , and was not willing to respond to his words.
After Lacey said this, she leaned back on the chair with a tired look, as if telling the truth of the matter stirred up her calm mood again.
Carly was even more shocked. She didn't understand that pollution and distortion were already terrible, why would there be people like the Ernst family?
In order to achieve your own goals, do you have to put the city-state into crisis?
Marco was much more depressed than before. His previous anger seemed to be a joke, and the truth was far crueler than he imagined.
Perhaps, only Wei En is confused...
Even though he knows so much, there are still many things he still doesn't understand.
These people are so... so well-intentioned.
Dang, dang...
the bells of Krims Cathedral rang, and Wei En came back to his senses. Is it already noon?
"Dang, dang..."
But I don't know why, the bell has rang twelve times and it's still ringing?
"Huh? No!"
"Something happened!"
Lacey, Marco, and Carly stood up at the same time, rushed to the window with solemn expressions and looked in the direction of the cathedral.
Wayne was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? What does this bell represent?"
"It's a warning from the Dawn Church." Old Jack also looked at Krims Cathedral, "Only when something serious happens It will sound only in times of crisis... twenty-four times!"
"Thirty...thirty-six...forty-eight..." Lacey counted silently.
"The highest level, is it a crisis equivalent to a level four disaster!?" Carly exclaimed, clasping her hands together as if praying for something.
Marco said in a daze: "How could it reach the level of a fourth-level disaster? Did the Church of Dawn make a mistake?" A
fourth-level disaster? !
Wei En's heart was shaken, and he couldn't help but look at the unaware white-haired girl next to him, couldn't he?
At this moment, a cold voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, it's no longer safe here. Please follow me to the cathedral."
"Melbel? What happened?" Carly asked anxiously when she saw the person coming.
"I don't know either." Guardian Knight Melbell stood in mid-air outside the window, bowing slightly and waiting quietly.
"I..." Carly turned to look at the others, very hesitant.
"Go, Carly." Lacey saw her confusion, patted her shoulder and consoled her.
Carly lowered her head and bit her lip. In her heart, she already agreed with Lacey's words.
After a while, she raised her head again and looked at everyone firmly.
"I'm sorry, I'm Dawn's candidate for Saint. They need me more over there than here..." "
Don't worry, we will still work together when this is over." Lacey said with a smile.
Wayne glanced at Melbell, nodded and said, "Sister Carly, stay safe. Uncle Euan is still waiting for you to come back safely." "That's right
, Euan!"
Carly jumped suddenly when he reminded her. As she went out, Melbell held her hand, "You too, you must pay attention to safety..."
After saying that, she quickly urged: "Melbel, take me to the Golden Street first!"
"As you command, Your Majesty."
Melbell glanced at them calmly, his eyes seemingly fixed on 'Old Jack' unintentionally, then turned around and took Carly towards the church.
Looking at the backs of them leaving, Lacey's expression became serious, "The situation is urgent now, and we have to be prepared."
Marco and Wayne nodded at the same time.
"No wonder the Secretary summoned us old guys. It seems that they had a premonition that today's things would not be simple."
Old Jack looked at the church not far away with a strange expression. It seemed that things were beyond his expectation.
"I hope things are not that bad..."
Before he could finish his words, Director Nifa's voice was heard in the Secret Service Department: "Everyone, gather in the detention area!" "
It's Director, let's go!"
Lacey's expression changed. Shen turned around and rushed outside first.
Marco also quickly followed, but old Jack stood still and did not move.
Wayne glanced at him vaguely, hesitated for a moment, returned to the desk and pretended to pack things, "Tina, wait for me to pack things." The
white-haired girl carried the clown doll, "Tina, wait."
"You don't want to go. "?" Old Jack asked with a half-smile.
"Old Captain, you go over first. I'll just take these with me."
"Okay." Old Jack looked at him deeply and left the office.
[You are targeted by Jack Kim Adros’ murderous intent. Comment: Well, this time it’s two silks. I advise you to behave normally. Reward: +60 survival points. 】
Seeing the prompt on the panel, Wei En's heart trembled.
He originally wanted to take Tina directly to the clown theater, but Black Jack has been paying attention to him - why?
But I'm afraid he can't leave like this now...
Wei En knows very well that if he makes any move, Black Jack's strength will probably kill him instantly.
Thinking of this, he quickly packed up his things and put them into the box, and took Tina's hand.
"Let's go!"
"Tina, let's go."
Outside the door, old Jack was waiting at the door. When he saw them coming out, he waved to follow them, "According to my experience, something big happened this time. Come over quickly."
" Hmm."
Inexplicably, Wei En had a bad premonition in his heart.
Could it be that the person Black Jack is looking for is one of him and Tina?
Can't?
...
...
At the same time, No. 44 Golden Avenue, Wei En's residence.
No, to be more precise, it was the residence of the intelligence officer placed by the Ghost School in the city of Custer.
"Is this here?"
"Yes, Lady Olivia."
Two women in black robes stood outside the residence, looking around.
It was two members of the Ghost School of Shadows - one of them, Olivia, was the former liaison officer of the Klanders Intelligence Department.
"The environment is not bad," Olivia raised her hand and said, "Open the door and go in to see the extremely talented senior wizard apprentice."
Another woman habitually pushed up the glasses on the bridge of her nose and took out The spare key prepared long ago opens the door to the residence.
Squeak.
At this time, the zombie lady who was cleaning the room was stunned for a moment when she heard the sound.
Wayne is back? At this time?
She quickly dropped the broom and ran downstairs, "Wayne, you... who are you?"
"Zombie?" Olivia looked up and down with interest, "It seems that even if the apprentice is not in the school Internally, there are also some bad habits.”
"Who are you?" Sharapova looked at the person with her pale eyes, bowed slightly and lowered her hands naturally, assuming an attack posture.
"Oh?"
Olivia didn't pay attention to her actions at all. After scanning around, "It seems that the apprentice didn't stay at home honestly." "
Sir, what should we do now?" The bespectacled girl focused her attention on On Miss Zombie.
The liaison officer could care less, but she couldn't care less... She couldn't deal with zombies of such strength.
"Wait a while, but it can't be too long. The city-state is not safe now."
"You guys, die!"
Sharapova didn't get the answer she wanted, so she rushed forward!
According to the rules of the world of the undead, anyone who intrudes into the territory without authorization is an enemy!
"Garbage..."
Olivia looked at her sarcastically. Let's do some exercise before dealing with the business...
There is another chapter to be added, but it will be late. Don't wait, everyone, we will read it tomorrow. Same thing.
