There have been many secrets in history that have lasted for thousands of years and have never been solved, and there have been many mysterious organizations that exist because of these secrets, even if most of these organizations are all kinds of speculations and conjectures of boring people, but some of them are not only long-lasting, but also because they have been long-lasting and are regarded by countless people as true.

For example, the Illuminati and Freemasonry are the masters behind the real rule of the world, and the leaders and monarchs of those countries are just puppets on the surface, and everything they do is actually just part of the plan of these two unusually large secret organizations to rule the world, even the discovery of the New World and the subsequent rise of the states in the distant New World, and the emergence at the same time of another future equally powerful Rus' Empire established on the ice fields of eastern Europe and Siberia, It is nothing more than a tool for these two organizations to compete with each other in an attempt to unify the world.

Such mysterious legends are very good to satisfy the curiosity of a large number of people about mysterious things, but for most people, these are really just topics used to chat and relieve boredom.

And even a little sane people know that the so-called Jews rule the world through money, or some stories of presbyterians hiding in basements and wearing hoods that do not see the light of day all day long to discuss how to manipulate those great powers to fight a world war to meet some of their needs are really just for amusement, and only those who are really sick in their brains will believe this kind of absurd story that is inexplicable and often does not know how many hands have been fabricated and processed.

Alexander did not believe in such an organization, at least not until he saw the cross, although he knew much more about the origin of the cross and the absurd legends than the people in front of him.

He knew so well not because he was interested in these things, but because of his previous work.

This kind of shadow government ruling the world, or the Jews manipulating the course of humanity, or even the ridiculous thing that the so-called 666 gesture is a Freemasonic code is actually very satisfying to some conspiracy theorists, and it also satisfies the urgency of some murdered paranoiac to think that the whole world is against them all day long.

This mysterious legend of European origin was once hyped up in Alexander's later era, and as a means of supporting his family, Alexander also used these gimmicks to win over those unjust customers who liked this conspiracy theory when he was still Ding Mu.

He will skillfully spread these stories to those clients, from the original European mystic legends to some stories suitable for localization, and then when those clients listen as if they were there, and even think that they are watching those conspirators sign blood-stained contracts, he will appropriately recommend to those people to invest in a certain book such as "The Secret of So-and-So" or "Who's Contract" or God knows if it will be a bestseller or script.

Because of this, in order to make a living, although he did not believe in those nonsense from the bottom of his heart, he still studied those European occults and conspiracy theories very deeply for a while, and it seemed that it was the arrangement of fate, and the later Ding Mu and the present Alexander seemed to be doing the same thing.

"Believe me, your so-called secret does not belong to you alone, and you are still safe and sound, thanks to Archduke Alessandra Valleollio." Alexander told the men that seeing how suspicious they were, he decided to let them know directly that he knew that he was "awesome".

"I know where you come from, and you know what you call yourself, the Dragon Knights are actually just one of the many disguises you have used over the years, you also joined in the expedition to the Holy Land, in search of the legendary Holy Grail, and some of you have even organized a truly powerful Knights, through which they want to restore the innocence of the Thirteenth Apostle, but unfortunately their plans were exposed, and as a result, on that dark Friday in 1307, The Order was attacked by various nations across Europe at about the same time, and they were declared guilty of all sorts of crimes, but one only had to think of how so many different nations and even rival monarchs could have agreed to do the same thing if it were not for a terrible cause that made the whole of Europe jealous, and the only explanation was that their true identities were discovered, and thus suffered a devastating catastrophe. ”

As Alexander spoke, the faces of the men in front of him showed disbelief, and one of them couldn't help but whisper to his companion next to him, "I know he's talking about the Templars, but is this true, are the Templars actually our brothers?" ”

"I don't know, after all, there are so many branches of ours, that the first followers of the One Apostle were scattered and separated because of fear of persecution, and some of them were later contacted, and some of them were never heard from again," the people who were asked were equally incredulous but could not find a flaw, but it was indeed strange if there was a real explanation, after all, the whole of Europe, friendly and hostile countries, were arrested and killed by the Knights Templar at the same time, and the reasons for their conviction were so absurd, It was as if it was purely an excuse, and if it weren't for the fact that they didn't dare to make it public, there really wouldn't be enough to explain this strange behavior. ”

Hearing this, the face of the person who asked the question before showed excitement, his fingers trembled a little, and the excitement in his eyes when he looked at the others could not be concealed.

This look fell on Alexander's eyes, but he couldn't help but smile secretly.

People are always subconsciously looking for a powerful partner for themselves, even if this partner has nothing to do with him, so many people always talk about what a glorious ancestor they have, or have a friend with a lot of money.

"But how do you prove your claim," a man Alexander thought had never appeared in the town hall before, suddenly spoke, he was wearing a hood that directly covered his entire head, so apart from the fact that his voice was slightly old and his accent was a little strange, Alexander could not see the slightest clue from him, "After all, what you said is only your side of the Duke, this does not prove that you understand us, nor does it prove what you say, in fact, our existence has long been no secret." ”

"That's exactly what I'm going to say," Alexander said to the man, and then looked at the others as if he didn't see that this man should be a more important person, "You can recall the Knights Templar's coat of arms, a red cross, but if you look closely, you will see that the cross is very special, not only is the four sides of the cross too thick, but also have obvious lines that curve inward, so that there is very little space on the badge, so for now let's ignore the red color on the badge, Look at the places where there is no color," said Alexander, picking up the pen on the table and drawing on it, and as he said this, several of the people who had leaned their heads over were already looking at the pattern and let out a heavy gasp.

"The oblique cross is the sign of the true successor of Jesus Christ." One of the men had blurted out in excitement, and the man was drawing as fast as he spoke, but this time he had drawn a prominent diagonal cross, but everyone had already seen by this time that if they ignored the diagonal cross, as Alexander said, then they happened to faintly see the Templars' rather distinctive red grand cross with a curve.

Vateretto, who had not spoken since the beginning of the negotiations, also stood up, walked over to the cross drawn by Alexander, looked at it carefully, and then let out a soft sigh.

"Is it a blessing or a disaster, our brothers have made it to this point, but now we can only lament their former glory," Vateretto said, looking back at the mysterious man who was vaguely the leader, and continued without a response, "Now that this is all in vain, the Templars are history, and they have all been killed by those traitors." ”

"Not necessarily," Alexander shook his head slightly, "the Knights Templar are now being rebuilt, and although everything in the Order is now owned by the Vatican, and they no longer have the powerful military power they once had, this does not mean that this Order no longer exists." ”

"But isn't it strange," the man spoke again, his voice always calm, and obviously not as excited as the others were about finding a relative, "why did the Vatican rebuild this Order when they knew that they were in fact the followers of the only apostle?" ”

The man's words calmed the agitated ones in an instant, and they stopped talking and looked at Alexander.

"Because of wealth, a real wealth." Alexander seemed casual, but he had already laughed out loud in his heart, and he had been waiting for a long time, and this was what he had been waiting for.

"The Knights Templar were destroyed by those nations because they discovered their true identity, but there was also a reason why they coveted the Templars' astonishing wealth, some of which they had brought back from the East, some of which they had earned over the years, and which had been inherited by countless people for nearly two centuries, and it was because of the greed of this wealth that King Fili IV of France colluded with other monarchs to frame the Templars......"

"It doesn't make sense," the man suddenly interrupted Alexander, "even if they have so much money, it should be distributed all over Europe by the Knights, and if so, even if the amount of money is staggering, once it is scattered in everyone's hands, there will not be a lot of it, and there is no need for Philippe IV to be so reckless in order to divide such a sum of money, unless ......"

"Unless there's something more amazing," Alexander interrupted the man as well, his gaze slowly swept over everyone in front of him, looking at them though they couldn't see their faces clearly, but only by looking at the eyes exposed outside the mask to see how attentive they were, Alexander paused for a moment before saying in a nonchalant tone, "What if this thing is from Jerusalem, and is a secret of incalculable value?" ”

"What is it?" One person couldn't help but immediately preemptively ask, and then he shrank back as if he was a little embarrassed.

"Tell me, what do you think made Philippe IV bloody destruction of the Knights Templar, and why did the Vatican rebuild the Knights?" The leader asked unhurriedly.

"I'd love to tell you that it's the Holy Grail," Alexander said bluntly this time the answer that many people had already guessed, but seeing that although they seemed to be excited all at once, they were not so eager and intense, Alexander couldn't help but laugh mockingly at the time of so-called piety, and then he continued, "But according to the relevant documents I saw in the Vatican, I think there is another one that may be even greater, and that is the treasure of King Solomon." ”

"Solomon's treasure?!"

Suddenly, exclamations rang out from all around, some people asked loudly because of excitement, and some just kept letting out heavy gasps.

"But is it possible, that there really is a treasure of King Solomon?" Vateretto also asked excitedly, but he was more skeptical.

"So what do you think made Fili IV go to great lengths to destroy the Knights Templar, knowing that he ordered the killing of almost all the low-ranking knights, but arrested and imprisoned all the high-ranking knights, and they were all tortured, especially the then chief of the regiment, Jacob de Molay, who was executed after seven years of confession, and it is recorded that during these seven years Philippe IV used all kinds of torture and tortured him, and even the king himself went into battle, now that he has obtained the confession, And the vast majority of the Knights have already been executed, so why is he still so persistent, and what exactly does he want to know? ”

"King Solomon's treasure?"

This time it was Vateretto, who looked back at the leader, and then at Alexander, his eyes no longer so calm, and there was a hint of excitement in his voice.

"Then why did the Vatican renew the Knights?"

"Isn't that obvious," Alexander looked at Vateretto with a look of your stupidity, "according to the Vatican's records, because in the end there was no clue to King Solomon's treasure, and soon after the so-called Pope Avignon was abolished, all the documents were attributed to the Vatican, and successive popes wanted to be able to reproduce this treasure, because it would not only mean incredible wealth, but also could involve the whereabouts of the Holy Grail, but the Templars at that time had been killed and there was no clue, In order to gain the trust of the Order's members and their descendants for fear of persecution, the Vatican decided to pardon them and rebuild the Order in the hope of recruiting their descendants, who might be able to get clues about the treasure from them. ”

"This is despicable!" As soon as Alexander's words fell, one of them shouted angrily, "The treasures belong to the Knights Templar, that is, to the only apostles, not to the traitors, which means that we should be in charge of King Solomon's treasures." ”

"Yes, the treasure belongs to us, to the followers of the One Apostle!"

The others immediately shouted, and then cheered up with each other, and for a time the hall was filled with righteous indignation and excitement.

Vateretto looked at the leader again, and saw that the leader had already stood up, and he was about to remind everyone to be quiet, but he didn't expect that Alexander had already preemptively opened his mouth and asked loudly: "Do you only care about treasures at this time?" ”

All eyes were on Alexander, and someone seemed to be about to say something, but he waved his hand to interrupt him: "Don't you know that you are in danger, I tell you this only to make you understand that you know everything about your Holy See, and even the true identity of the Knights Templar that you do not know, when you are still racking your brains to find your companions in Aragon or Flanders, or whatever, In fact, the Holy See has long been clear about these Truth Societies or other organizations that you have scattered in Europe, and what do you think is the reason why it has not done anything to you until now? ”

Alexander's words made the Balkans, who had just been excited about the treasure, look at each other, and his questions weighed heavily on their hearts.

"Because of King Solomon's treasure," this time it was the leader who spoke, and he walked through the crowd to Alexander not far away, looking at Alexander through the two hollows in his mask, "The Vatican thinks that maybe the descendants of those knights will contact us, and maybe some of them may have clues or even whereabouts about the treasure, right?" ”

Seeing that Alexander did not speak, but made a gesture of "Indeed", the leader continued: "They may even have sent spies among us, or sent someone ......"

Speaking of this, the leader leaned forward slightly: "Tell me Duke, why did you come to Transylvania?" ”

The leader's words made the people around immediately look at Alexander, so that the answer was not right, and immediately the white knife went in and the red knife came out.

"Why am I here? Because I don't want to see you people become tools for others to find wealth, and I also want to get a rich enough benefit from it," Alexander smiled at the leader, properly admitting his desires and even exposing his weaknesses, which would make it easier for the other party to feel that what you said was true, Alexander secretly recited a certain negotiation trick in his heart, "I have three children now, I love each of them, but my future territory may not be enough, So I want to plan a future for my children, which is very much needed. ”

"But you can't fight the idea of those treasures, they belong to us!"

Seeing a man spewing his stinky breath in a frustrated manner, Alexander waved his hand in disgust to dispel the foul smell, and then he looked at the chief: "That's King Solomon's treasure, it's an Old Testament legend, who do you think it should belong to?" Or kill me now, and then wait for someone to find you someday, in the complete ignorance of what other people are doing to you? You are not the only descendants of the Followers of Judah, and those who have the clues to the treasure can go to the descendants of others, or simply join the Order. You may be lucky enough to meet someone who has the clues, but so what, can you get your hands on such a huge treasure? After all, now that Jerusalem is in the hands of the infidels, no one should try to go to the East alone to steal the treasure back, so in order to succeed, it is necessary to build an expeditionary army, or even conduct another crusade, and there is only one person or place that can call for the crusade. ”

"Vatican," said the chief, in a deep voice, as he looked at Alexander, "and you, the ...... of Pope Alexander VI."

"His favorite son-in-law, so I'm here, so now can we have a good talk?" After that, Alexander picked up the silver glass on the table and slowly took a sip of the famous Transylvanian wine.

Sensing the leader's hesitant attitude for a while, Schell, who was standing far away in the corner of the hall, only had one thought in his mind at this time: "Which of these things that the Duke said is true and which one is made up?" ”
