Chapter 225
But, Rossweisse has another proof, that is, if Sylph really betrayed herself, betrayed Jello, betrayed the brave team, and told Qin Chu about her own affairs.
Then Qin Chu would never keep Sylph by his side. Wouldn't it be better to plant Sylph as a traitor here? Sylph wouldn't say so many words. Isn't this clearly suspicious?
Qin Chu is not a fool. It is impossible for him not to understand the importance of a traitor.
Therefore, considering many factors, Rossweisse thinks that Sylph is still trustworthy now.
Sylph may just be angry because of Aili Ailin's abandonment. If she finds a chance to talk to Sylph, she will definitely come back.
Of course, one problem Rossweisse didn't consider is... there may be enough traitors among them, and Qin Chu no longer needs them.
Taking a deep breath, Rossweisse suppressed the annoyance in her heart.
"Is what Sylph said just now true? The soul fragments of Lord Jello and the person Horus?" Rossweisse asked.
Ailin Aili nodded.
They were also going to say these things, but Sylph got there first.
Rossweisse pondered: "We can only give up on Romon for the time being. We alone can't deal with Romon and the monsters attached to him..."
"But, we must get a soul fragment as soon as possible."
"As long as we have even a soul fragment in our hands, we can see hope..."
A journey without hope is a torment. Not many people can endure it, and they will despair in a long and worthless struggle.
"We failed here, but we must ensure that Athena can succeed..."
"Erin, Ellie, you two go to support Athena." Rossweisse said after careful thinking.
Every time things go wrong, every plan will be destroyed due to various factors, which makes Rossweisse extremely irritated.
Therefore, even though Athena and Muse are already there, Rossweisse still feels very uneasy. She plans to arrange Ellie and Erin there to ensure success this time.
No matter what the cost
At the same time, letting Ai Li and Ai Lin leave will also help ease the conflict between Sylph and the twins, and she will have time to persuade Sylph.
After a pause, Rossweisse continued: "I will investigate Horus."
"If my prediction is correct, this guy is likely to be our biggest enemy. We have failed repeatedly during this period of time, and it is very likely that this guy is behind the scenes."
"This is a secretive and cruel enemy who has a deep hatred for us and is very dangerous."
"But if we can get rid of this person, future plans should be much smoother." Rossweisse said.
"As for Ekaterina, she is the most important inner ghost we left with Qin Chu."
"Although she can't get all the information, her value to us is still very important. She can't be moved for the time being, so Muse and Athena are up to you."
The twins nodded: "I know, you should be careful too!"
By the way, Horus...
Could this person be Augustus's pseudonym?
After all, the suspicion has been pointed at Augustus before.
...
On the other side
Sylph came to Qin Chu's tent.
The maid outfit made Sylph feel a little embarrassed.
But the atmosphere here made Sylph relax.
Without the oppression and intrigue of Rossweisse, she could even smile at ease here.
The seventh prince Warren seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
I heard that this was the most gentlemanly and gentle son of Wordsworth. He had no talent in cultivation, but he was very good at managing state affairs.
I don't understand why Wordsworth arranged Warren to the front line and take over the army.
The seventh prince Warren was sitting on the stone next to the tent with Qin Chu to discuss very important things.
"My lord, I really admire you. Snow girl, blood elf, or great sage level... God, even snow girls and blood elves of ordinary strength are very popular among nobles. You can capture... No, I mean rob... cough, I brought back two. Admiration, admiration..." Warren's eyes narrowed into a slit, and he did not hesitate to praise him.
Whatever woman you like, you can have any woman you like.
Human women are no longer enough, so just go to the monsters and grab a few beautiful witches.
It's really enviable for a man to do this.
"So, can you please, Lord Brave, when you go to the monster territory for a stroll, can you help me catch a succubus..." The seventh prince asked in a somewhat flattering way.
Succubus.
A man's dream.
Even Warren is no exception.
He looked at Sylph, who had just returned wearing a maid outfit, and was even more shocked.
Goddess.
He actually let the proud ghost shooter wear a maid outfit... He is worthy of being the Lord Brave, how did he do it?
Qin Chu's forehead was full of black lines. The seventh prince said that he had something important to discuss with him. Is this what you call a serious matter?
Succubus?
With your body, can you bear it?
I guess you can toss it to pieces.
Qin Chu pretended to cough: "Your Highness Warren... Let's talk about the succubus later. You said you came to see me for something serious?"
Warren seemed to have completely forgotten the etiquette of being a royal child. He slapped his head and seemed to have just remembered it.
This look is inexplicably not annoying.
Warren only took off a ring and handed it to Qin Chu, with an ambiguous expression on his face.
Qin Chu was suspicious and took the ring to see that there was a row of light green potions inside.
This thing was also in the palace that Wordsworth handed over to Qin Chu.
It's called energy recovery potion!
The name doesn't sound good, but it is the product of extremely high attainments in potion refining. The materials used are extremely precious. The cost of a bottle is at least 100,000 mana.
Qin Chu took it many times in the first round!
When fighting monsters and exhausting energy, taking a bottle can speed up the recovery of physical strength and make you full of energy in a short time.
At the same time, it also has similar effects to moon flowers.
"Father knows that you, the brave man, have been working hard day and night and are physically exhausted, so I prepared a little gift for you." Warren smiled.
Qin Chu looked strange: "Is this the so-called serious matter?"
Having said that, he still honestly transferred all the potions into his ring and returned the empty storage ring to Warren.
He didn't have any dirty ideas, but this world was too dangerous, and there were monsters everywhere, so it was better to keep it for emergency use.
Warren's expression gradually became serious: "There is another thing..."
"It's about my eldest brother..."
The eldest prince?
Qin Chu's face also became solemn. He knew too little about the existence in the void.
"After a careful investigation by the royal family, there are some clues about the evil god that eroded and polluted my eldest brother."
Warren suddenly shut up, and Angelica came over with a teacup.
Warren smiled and took a sip, then nodded to Angelica: "Your tea art is very exquisite, Miss Angelica."
After Angelica walked away, Warren continued:
"That guy is called the Lord of Desire, also called the Lord of Pleasure, the Goddess of Desire, the Son of Fallen, etc. He has many names."
Qin Chu frowned: "Goddess of Desire? Son of Fallen?"
"Yes, it is an existence of unknown gender, or... he can switch at will, even male and female at the same time." Warren spread his hands helplessly.
For humans, this seems to be a difficult picture to imagine, but for those weird existences, it seems to be a very normal thing.
"There are few records about this deity. We only know that in addition to controlling desire, He also controls the authority of elegance and dignity."
"After many investigations, more than a thousand years ago, the Lord of Desire had some believers in the Orwell Empire. They formed a religion full of decadence and filth, with indulgence and pleasure as the core, and seducing other creatures to degenerate as the most pleasant thing."
"His dignity and elegance also have believers... The conflict between the believers of the three powers of desire, elegance, and dignity of the same deity is even more intense than the conflict with the Holy See."
"It's simply to the point of no return."
"But, you know, although elegance and dignity are desirable, desire is the most depraved."
"The believers of dignity and elegance were eventually wiped out by the sect of desire."
"And this evil religion was eventually wiped out by many other churches at the time, and disappeared in history."
Warren quietly told about the Lord of Desire, and Qin Chu also listened quietly.
"But darkness is always difficult to completely eliminate."
"It may be inappropriate for me to say this, but the corruption of the aristocracy is most likely to breed this evil belief."
"The followers of the Lord of Desire always exist in this world in various ways, and they erode everyone they meet."
"Recently, the Duchess of Wyatt held a private party. The attendees included 24 other noble ladies and young ladies, plus dozens of strong male guards and civilians..."
Needless to say, everyone knows what this so-called party is all about.
"Duke Wyatt had long suspected his wife, so not long after the party started, the Duke led a group of private soldiers and broke into the party."
"I didn't see the scene at that time with my own eyes, but... as far as I know, the most common adjectives are... chaos, dirtiness, filthiness, and depravity..."
"Although Duke Wyatt suspected that his wife was cheating, he couldn't believe that his wife was such a shameless woman. He was so excited that he pointed at his wife with a trembling finger and said three words "you" in a row, and then he was directly angry to death..."
Qin Chu expressed pity for Duke Wyatt. He originally went to catch the adultery, but he didn't expect that he couldn't stand it and was angry to death. It was a bit miserable.
"The matter became a big deal. The royal family came forward and arrested all the people who attended the banquet. During the interrogation, they learned about a mysterious organization..."
"The Elysian Witch Society!"
Qin Chu's eyes were slightly stern.
The woman who once disguised herself as Angelica to assassinate him was a member of the Elysian Witch Society.
Unexpectedly, this mysterious organization has infiltrated the level of the Duchess.
As for the Duchess, I'm afraid she can only be considered a high-level person at best, not even the top level.
What was revealed before him was just the tip of the iceberg.
Qin Chu remembered... the woman had said before that the Witches of Bliss worshipped a god called the Lord of Pleasure.
Warren continued, "The Witches of Bliss worshipped the evil god called the Lord of Pleasure."
"And they are planning an assassination recently... the target is you, Mr. Brave!"
Chapter 3 is here.
Chapter 269 The Next Victim (4)
This is the information obtained by the royal family after careful questioning. Wordsworth judged that telling Qin Chu this information would bring him closer to the Brave.
Warren thought Qin Chu would be very shocked, but what he didn't expect was that Qin Chu's face was very calm.
He seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, Qin Chu finally spoke: "Who is the leader of the Witches of Bliss? Have you found out?"
Was it this question?
Warren frowned slightly, then shook his head: "Nothing was gained in this regard!"
"The interrogators of the empire are all very professional. No matter how strong-willed a person is, they have a way to pry open the other person's mouth. Duchess Wyatt was originally prepared to confess, but..."
Warren was interrupted by Qin Chu before he could finish his words: "But, her body suddenly began to rot and finally turned into a pool of thick water?"
Warren was shocked and blurted out: "How do you know?"
