Chapter 389 King's Blood

Gao Wen is not a young man with passion, nor does he look at the upcoming war with innocent and simple ideas - so even though he realizes the action of the end of everything, he does not have the idea of ​​calling for peace with all passion.

After understanding the cause and effect of the matter, Gao Wen realized that although this civil war was expected by the club of all things to die, it was by no means something like the cult group like the club of all things to die. It was an inevitable product of historical trends, just as inevitable as the war that Ansu and Tifeng will break out.

Francis II fell down, and the one who killed him was the high-ranking bishop of the Death Society of All Things, and the planner was his son, but the old king did not just die at the hands of these two people. His death was the result of the joint game and advancement of several forces.

Edmund needed him to die not only because he needed a reason to start a civil war, but also because the prince wanted to eradicate the biggest "compromiser" in the royal family and use the king's death to arouse the righteous indignation of the nobles in the country, fortunately gaining the authority to raise the army in the shortest time;

The Duke of the East Realm needed him to die because the Duke never had allegiance to him, but Prince Edmund, or a "Moen royal family" who could return to the First Dynasty;

Emperor Tifeng also needed him to die because Tifeng needed Ansu's civil war to break out. Gao Wen was almost sure that Tifeng would quietly watch Ansu's civil war after this until the ancient kingdom completely collapsed;

The Wilder family in the north, the Duchess of Victoria Wilder, does she also need the king to die? Francis II is the most difficult king to control since the establishment of the Second Dynasty. Although this king seems to be tolerant and compromise, his tolerance is extreme tenacity and cunning. He has used nearly forty years to break free from the control of the Wilder family. Has the Wilder family already wanted to change to a more obedient king? For example, Wales Moen...

Many sharp knives were inserted into Francis II, and everything would eventually die, but they just pushed the sharp knives of the kingdom a little.

Therefore, Ansu's second civil war was the same as the Ansu-Tifeng War, which was a historical necessity, but the difference was that the latter had been postponed, while the former was a foregone conclusion the moment when Francis II fell.

The blood shed by the king must be compensated with the blood of the entire kingdom. Anyone's appeal, call, run, and reveal the truth are pale and powerless. Even if Gao Wen, the "ancestor", speaks, it is impossible for anyone to listen to it at this time. In fact, even if some people listen, they will deliberately pretend to be inaudible.

In the Shadow Experimental Field, the people who stayed here are still carrying out some finishing work.

Tyre put away his sea demon form and summoned a large water ball to clean up the disgusting wrecks left after Clement died little by little. Solderin took his steel rangers to set up lighting in various places in the Shadow Experimental Field. These soldiers experienced the mental impact of the Tyre Sea Demon form. Almost everyone passed the san check more than three times. At this time, all of them were full of energy and fighting spirit, and even their work efficiency was doubled...

Gao Wenze and Amber came to the center of the Shadow Experimental Field. Looking at the circular pit on the platform, Gao Wen thought: "That is to say, there is an unstable crack here at the corresponding position of the Shadow Realm. When someone activates the Shadow Seal Ring in the Realm, the unstable crack will open a space channel in the Realm and summon the shadow residents?"

"That's how I judged," Amber nodded, "but the space rift is obviously very unstable. If the Shadow Inhabitants pass, it's okay to say that when people in the present world pass, they will cause the passage to collapse quickly."

"... The Shadow Seal Ring is a relic of the ancient Gondor Empire. This shadow experimental field is also a creation of the ancient Gondor Empire. There must be a connection between them..." Gao Wen looked around the huge cave with a thoughtful look on his face. "Even during the Gondor era, humans did not have a very in-depth study of the Shadow World. At most, it was enough to open a small 'different space warehouse' in the Shadow World to store some important items in it. However, scholars have never had a clear conclusion about the nature and the reasons for the Shadow World."

"This should be where they studied the essence of the shadow world back then," Amber shook his head and said, "This pit was a fixed portal built back then. The Shadow Seal Ring was a tool used by researchers back then to 'open the door'?"

"Maybe...but what I'm even more curious is why these studies were conducted in the 'disobedience fortress'," Gao Wen expressed his doubts. "The purpose of this fortress is to find a way out for humans in the tide of demons. Could it be that... the Gondor scholars at that time believed that one of the ways out was the Shadow World?"

Amber blinked his eyes and thought for a while, shook his head, "I don't know this - although I can enter the Shadow Realm, I don't know if the Shadow Realm will be affected by the Demon Tide."

"Can you communicate with the Shadow Inhabitants?" Gao Wen asked curiously, looking at Amber's eyes.

Amber spread her hands: "If you think that talking to two people in a sleep can be called "communication", then I can communicate with them."

"I understand..." Gao Wen shook his head with laughter and cry, "But then again, what kind of existence are Shadow Inhabitants? Do they have their own society? Are they the Shadow-System 'elemental creatures'?"

Many Shadow researchers know the existence of Shadow Inhabitants. Even Gowen Cecil, a man who is not a magician, also knows some secrets about Shadow Inhabitants because of his extensive knowledge. But as Gowen knows, everyone knows only "secrets". Shadow Inhabitants, a special creature with human form but is obviously different from humans is a mystery to all scholars. Due to its powerful offensiveness and the strangeness of the Shadow Inhabitants themselves, no one has ever successfully established communication with Shadow Inhabitants. Moreover, since Shadow Inhabitants cannot exist stably in the present world for a long time, no one has successfully "captured" them.

Hearing Gao Wen’s question, Amber put his hand under his chin and thought decently, then shook his head: “I don’t know, but I suspect they are at least civilized – they are all wearing clothes!”

Gao Wen couldn't help but glance at Amber when he heard this answer: "You are reasonable and well-founded, but what you said is the same as not - aren't you known as the Shadow Master? I thought you knew at least more about the Shadow World than me."

Amber put her waist on her back and sang and said, "That's why she said it's 'protected'!"

Gao Wen: "…"

Is this elf shame really shameless when admitting such a thing?

Looking at Amber's look of shame but honor, Gao Wen could only curl his lips, then looked up and down at the half-elf in front of him: "Another then... have you ever thought about whether you have anything to do with this shadow experimental field?"

When talking about the topic of life experience, Amber put away the hippie smile on her face. She quietly looked at the round pit: "I don't know... Although I thought about this when I saw that space crack and saw Francis II use the Shadow Seal Ring to open the space crack... but I had no idea at all. After all, my parents who had never met even left me a ring. Who knows what the ring means? It really has something to do with my life experience? Or is it just so that the person who picked me up can give me some food for the sake of the ring? Even... Maybe my parents are just two little thieves. The ring was stolen by them, picked up by them, and placed on me casually. After all, the ring doesn't look very valuable when it is not activated..."

"Your adoptive father, and Pittman, don't they know your life experience at all?"

"How could they go?" Amber laughed, looking very relaxed. "My adoptive father is a thief, claiming to be the strongest stalker in the southern territory, but he has never done anything except thieves in his life. Uncle Pitman... Needless to say, you all know that although he has some skills, he is full of cheating..."

"Pitman..." Thinking of the whole day of scattering in the territory, but in fact, not only did he crack the secret of the divine power inverter array, but also led the establishment of the entire alchemy industry project. At the same time, the druid seemed to have a lot of knowledge about mysticism, Gao Wen shook his head, "He is not simple."

"Lord, the lighting point has been set up - we can only set up so many of them first, the magic net units we carry are not enough."

Saldrin's report interrupted the conversation between Gao Wen and Amber: Although this high-level ranger and Gao Wen would be called an old friend in private, when talking about the serious business, Saldrin insisted on calling Gao Wen "Lord".

Gao Wen looked around the huge cave and saw that the road from the entrance to the central platform was set up, and there were temporary magic crystal lamps in some dry areas. He nodded slightly: "Let's evacuate first, and then organize another exploration team to inspect the entire cave. Everyone returns."

The next day, the pre-war mobilization meeting led by Cecil was held as scheduled.

Looking at the heads of various departments standing in front of him, Gao Wen did not hide anything and said bluntly: "Everyone, Ansu will face a war - King Francis II was killed last night."

He had also hesitated whether to speak out this amazing intelligence so early, but before the meeting was held, he made up his mind.

This was a meeting that only the heads of various departments of the Department of Government Affairs could attend. Each participant determined the operation of part of the main functions of Cecil society. They were qualified to know this information, secondly, Gao Wen asked Hetty to hold this meeting in advance because he saw the fire in Changfeng Fortress the night before and heard the information brought by Amber. He summoned these people on the premise of knowing that the king was assassinated. Finally, Gao Wen also felt that it was time for everyone to clarify the direction of the future.

Although almost all the senior officials in the Government Affairs Department knew that Cecil, a huge social machine, would not be installed at the foot of the dark mountains, this layer of window paper still needs to be pierced.

Sure enough, Gao Wen's words caused a stir in the conference hall.

Even the two Cavaliers Byron and Philip, who knew about the situation last night, showed a solemn appearance.

Because until now, they dared to believe that this matter was true.
