Chapter 503 The Truth in the Fog
The turbulent Aubrey suddenly appeared, startling Tang En: "Why are you here? What changes have occurred in the situation in Alexis?"
Before Aubrey could speak, the impulse that Iluli had been suppressing finally broke out. She rushed forward and rushed directly into Tang En's arms, gasping rapidly: "Master!"
It’s over!
Fiona slapped her forehead and glanced at Alleria and others next to her. As expected, they were dumbfounded.
"What did Your Majesty the Holy Maiden just say?"
Aubrey seemed unable to believe what he was hearing.
"It seems...master?"
Seeing Iluli hugging Tang En and rubbing against Tang En, Adrien seemed to be struck by lightning.
What's going on?
The Holy Maiden who is worshiped and admired by countless people in the Holy See of Light is actually trying to please Tang En like a little slave girl?
Could it be that the matter was too urgent, so he had hallucinations?
Why did Iluli become like this! ?
Alleria was dumbfounded, completely unable to believe that this was her familiar friend.
Looking at Tang En, he suddenly took several steps back, looking at Tang En up and down with vigilant eyes, as if he was looking at some savage beast.
"I said don't do this, okay?"
Tang En pushed Eluli away with a headache: "It's easy for people to misunderstand this way——Oli——"
"Don't call me Ollie!"
Alleria looked at Tang En in disbelief, her eyes clearly saying "I didn't expect you to be such a person."
"So I said there is a reason... Let's go in and sit down first, Fiona, help me explain it to her."
Seeing that Eluli was clinging to her again, her face constantly struggling with confusion and happiness, Tang En sighed and led them into the study.
Fiona briefly explained what happened in the underground world, but Alleria still couldn't believe it: "Why do I feel like this is a long-planned conspiracy?"
Fiona said very firmly: "It's impossible. The Lord is not that kind of person. We all present could see it clearly at the time. If Aitanox hadn't deliberately framed Her Majesty, it would have been impossible for her to appear. Such an accident."
Not that kind of person?
Alleria was skeptical about this. It could be seen from Tang En's skillful technique when he tied her up and ravaged her that he was not as innocent as he appeared.
Aubrey and Adrian briefly explained Alex's current situation to Tang En. After listening to the narrative, Tina had already made tea.
The two of them drank hot tea made from World Tree leaves and couldn't help but feel a little jealous of Tang En's rich life.
"Mobilize the forces of Matanni and Abalon, combine with the remaining forces of the Third Legion, and attack Taris!? Taris's strength will definitely not be able to resist the coalition forces!"
Alleria's face changed drastically and she said urgently: "And with the deployment of the troops of Matani and Abalon, the Kingdom of Ronitant will definitely notice that the defense line is empty. How will they defend themselves if they take advantage of the situation and launch an invasion!? With the third legion, all the remaining troops have been transferred away from the Scar of the Holy Sword, and the Kingdom of Solant and Grace in the north may also take advantage of it."
"Maybe that's what he wanted."
Adrian took a sip of tea and said helplessly: "He has been completely corrupted now. Chaos is what he wants to pursue."
Tang En asked: "Has there been any clues in the investigation of the mastermind behind the scenes?"
"We have secretly distributed the portrait drawn by Ms. Sanye and are looking for the true identity of that person, but it seems difficult at the moment."
Adrian whispered: "Those who have such means must not be ordinary people. We suspect they are cultists."
Tang En frowned: "Cultist? Snake of darkness?"
"It's very possible. After all, after many years of pursuit by the Knights Templar, the forces of the Red Sun Sect, the Five Wheels Sect, and the Agni Fire Sect have all been wiped out. They have long been unable to achieve anything. Only the The snake of darkness that has been dormant and developing over the years has not been able to hurt their vital points."
After a pause, Adrian added: "But it cannot be ruled out that these cults are still surviving. Until the truth comes to light, everything is possible."
Alleria frowned and asked, "What about the Chaos Cult? Their power is also very powerful, and they are more dangerous than the Serpent of Darkness."
Adrian shook his head: "The Chaos Cult is even less likely. All their members are lunatics. If they want to provoke a war, they will do it directly. It is impossible for them to use such complicated methods. If they really want to Speaking of which, they don’t care about war, they just enjoy the process of destroying and destroying order, whether it is war or peace, it makes no difference to them.”
"If that's the case, the Dark Snake is the most likely."
Tang En clapped his hands, and then pushed Iluli away from him. After talking for so long, Iluli was much better now. The breath coming from Tang En seemed to give her some kind of satisfaction. , after her inner impulse was satisfied, she was finally able to control herself again.
She was also very embarrassed at the moment, her face flushed, and she didn't even dare to look into Alleria's eyes.
"Okay, Your Majesty the Holy Maiden is now normal."
Tang En was also a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly and asked, "Speaking of which, I haven't asked the Holy Maiden why she came to Ellington. Is there any progress in the Holy See's investigation?"
After returning from the underground world, Tang En asked them to investigate the clues about the Dark Snake. After such a long time, there should be some progress.
Iluli lowered her head and whispered: "The Knights Templar sent news a while ago, and it seems that they have found clues to the activities of the Dark Serpent. They are secretly pursuing it. If there are any major discoveries, they will contact His Majesty the Pope immediately."
"What about the delay time for messages?"
Alleria said calmly: "The Holy See has special magic that can communicate over long distances, so there is no need to worry about this."
Hearing Alleria's voice, Iluli buried her head even lower. Her friend saw her embarrassing side, and she felt like she couldn't hold her head up now.
"The main reason why the Holy Maiden came here is because we have already talked with His Majesty the Pope. We hope that the Holy See can join us and cooperate with us in our battle."
Adrian explained: "It is easy to fight a war, but it is very difficult to appease the people after the war. In this regard, the Holy See has an inherent advantage. They can easily help us appease the people's emotions and make them accept it. the truth."
"I see."
"Oh, why do you always talk halfway? The point is that there is a prerequisite, that is, Victor's death must be related to dark forces or cultists, and then the Holy See can get involved in this matter. They cannot set a precedent for theocracy to interfere with the royal power. .”
Aubrey said impatiently: "So the Holy Maiden came here to witness with her own eyes the situation at the moment of Victor's death——"
After a pause, Aubrey's eyes turned around Iluli and Tang En, and he curled his lips. Maybe he also wanted to see Tang En?
Aubrey's gaze made the pure saint press her head lower, almost burying it in her chest.
Alleria sighed and took off the necklace: "That's true. The royal family also has this record. If the Holy See wants to interfere with the royal power, it must obtain evidence that the royal power is interfered by cultists or dark forces... So, please read Bar."
The power of the necklace was activated again, and the scene where Victor was assassinated by Gilad appeared in front of everyone.
Although she has seen it many times and studied it for a long time, Alleria's eyes still feel sour every time she sees this scene. Her father died like this. He obviously cared about the people so much and was so eager to restore her life. The glory of the Errus royal family, in the face of the economic crisis, he did not fall, in the face of the enemy's assassination, he did not fall, in the face of the impending struggle between the royal faction and the aristocratic faction, he did not fall.
But he fell under his son's sword and the conspiracy of the dark power.
"This is what happened that day..."
Iluli's eyes widened and she observed everything in the picture carefully, not missing any clues, including Prince Gilad's movements, the eyes of the mysterious man behind him, the expression of His Majesty Victor, and Master Clark next to him. body...
"Huh?"
Iluli was suddenly stunned. She flicked the screen with her two fingers, and then the screen was partially enlarged. Master Clark's body was clearly visible.
Tang En was stunned for a moment, this thing can actually zoom? Magic version of holographic image plus gesture operation?
"Master Clark's body looks a little strange..."
Iluli frowned: "His expression is very painful, and he holds his head with his hands. He must have been mentally shocked, but if you look at his arms, the muscles on them are like marks from ropes. Master Clark is extraordinary. How can a super magician be tied up with a rope?"
"rope?"
Tang En took a closer look, and his face suddenly became cold: "What rope... that's a snake, the traces left by being entangled by a snake, and there are also traces left by snake scales..."
snake?
After hearing this, everyone's expressions darkened, as expected.
The only cult that can use power in this way is the Serpent of Darkness. There is no other cult!
"Sure enough, it was the Serpent of Darkness who did it..."
Fiona gritted her teeth and said: "Three Venerables have died, but they still don't give up..."
"Three sages died?"
Iluli was shocked: "Who else besides Sannason? When?"
From the information collected by the Holy See, they knew that the Supreme God Lord of the Dark Serpent, Gassas, also had cadres called Venerables. The Lord was the right-hand man of the Lord, and everyone below the Lord was equal and was the Lord of God. of servants.
But who is His Holiness? How many sages are there? However, these information have never been unearthed. They act very cautiously. Even if they catch the people they corrupted, they cannot dig out the identity of the Venerable.
So far, Iluli only knows that Sonnerson, who died in Tang En's hands, was a venerable-level cadre.
