"It seems that the two knighthoods in our hands can't do anything, only to ensure that we can leave this special world alive, but then again, Alice, have you found a suitable 'buyer'?" Liu Xing continued to ask.

Alice nodded, pointed to the top of her head and said: "We are all already under the Marquis Zum now, because although most of the members of the public faction have taken refuge in Zum, Zum's management of them is still very strict, so we don't need to worry about the members of the public faction daring to deal with us with great fanfare, and Zum also issued us a few nameplates to prove their identity, put them in my room now, I will take them down and send them to you later, and when we go to the main castle, try not to be alone, It would have been nice to be able to be under the nose of Zum and his cronies all the time. ”

Hearing that Alice chose Zum as the "buyer", Liu Xing and the three of them all breathed a sigh of relief, because judging from the current situation, it is indeed the best choice for their group to join Zum's command.

The reason is very simple, now that the public faction has obtained the Marquis Medal and the Earl's Order, this has made their advantage very great, and it has also made the value of the Baron's Medal and the Viscount Medal in the hands of Liu Xing and others drop a lot invisibly, and it also forcibly excluded a "wrong" option for Liu Xing and others - Roken and Conaway.

Liu Xing and others have also analyzed before, in this "treasure hunt", each camp has set its own goals, among which Roken and Conaway's guaranteed goal is the Count of Counts or Marquises, and it must be great to be able to get the Duke's Medal, so the Viscount Medal and the Baron's Medal are actually dispensable in their eyes, so Liu Xing and others take the Viscount Medal and the Baron Medal to join Roken and Conaway, although they should not be closed. But don't expect much from Conaway and Roken's attitude.

On top of that, there's a good chance that Conaway and Rocan will be moved by the members of the public faction!

Liu Xing and the others knew very well that if the members of the public faction had found out that their group was from the martial arts faction, or regarded their group as a threat, then they would definitely try their best to get rid of their group and would not let their group leave this special module alive.

Therefore, it is very likely that the members of the public faction will take out the Earl's Medal to do business with the two Conaves, or to put it bluntly, the Conaway duo will turn a blind eye so that they can attack Liu Xing and the others.

I believe that Conaway and Roken should not refuse.

Therefore, the current Conaway and Roken camp has become a wrong choice for Liu Xing and others.

As for the Rock and Green camp, although this can't be said to be a wrong choice, it is not much better in practice, because it is still the same sentence - Rock and Green are too weak, maybe the public faction does not need to please them, and will directly attack Liu Xing and others.

Therefore, Liu Xing and the others knew that if they joined the camp of Locke and Green, the probability of life and death would be almost five or five.

Of course, if you choose to stand on your own, Liu Xing and the others will be dead, because the NPCs in the entire castle will become enemies, and they will come together with the members of the public faction to encircle and suppress their own group, after all, the Viscount Medal and the Baron Medal are still quite fragrant.

Therefore, judging from the current situation, Liu Xing and others know that joining Zum's command is the best choice, first of all, even if the members of the public faction get the Earl Medal and the Marquis Medal, it is impossible to have too much impact on Zum, so there is no need to worry too much that Zum will be too partial to the side of the public faction, and even Zum may be dissatisfied with the public faction because he "does not know each other"; Then there is another important point - nine times out of ten, the members of the public faction will use the Earl and the Marquis as bargaining chips to exchange Zum for the last small hammer that can knock the horseshoe, so to put it bluntly, it is still a deal between Zum and the public faction, so it is even less likely that Zum values the members of the public faction too much.

"It seems that you all think the same as me, and I think that Zum should not be on the side of the public faction, because before I officially swore allegiance to Zum, but I carefully observed him, and found that he was a very proud and conceited guy as we guessed before, so even if the members of the public faction gave him the Marquis and the Earl, in his eyes, the members of the public faction are still just his subordinates, and they are not qualified to negotiate terms with him."

Liu Xing nodded, this kind of Zumu is indeed what he wants to see the most.

Just as Liu Xing was about to speak, Li Hanxing suddenly said: "However, we must be mentally prepared - Zum is a chameleon!" ”

Liu Xing and Sun Huiwen both raised their eyebrows, while Alice looked puzzled.

Liu Xing looked at Alice, who didn't know the truth, and simply told everything that had happened in the past few "days".

After knowing the existence of the chameleon, Alice frowned and said: "In this way, Zum may indeed be a chameleon, although Zum and Duke Gundogan can be said to be father and son soldiers back then, but Zum did not act with his father many times, because Duke Gundogan often arranged Zum as an envoy to go to other places to represent himself in the army, and even occasionally let Zum as a bait to attract the attention of the enemy, so from the perspective of the chameleon, It is not difficult for him to replace Zum, and he can easily approach Duke Gundogan after becoming Zum, but the most important thing is that he will have more choices - he can find a way to replace Duke Gundogan, or he can find an opportunity to take Duke Gundogan and take the throne as Zum! ”

"And in the past few days, I also heard a lot of news about Zum from the mouths of those nobles, including a piece of news that Zum was accidentally ambushed in the process of being a bait, although he led his own soldiers to kill a bloody road, but also because of the arrows in his body and fell into a coma for several days, and afterwards he had a big quarrel with Duke Gundogan, feeling that his father did not regard himself as a son at all, so the relationship between Zum and Duke Gundogan became very bad during that time, It can even be said that they almost turned against each other, and only slowly recovered a little later, but there is still some gap between the two. ”

Because of this, many people think that the reason why Duke Gundogan has never officially established Zum as his heir is because this conflict makes Duke Gundogan feel that Zum does not respect him enough, you must know that the background of this special world can be said to be a complete reference to the Middle Ages, and it is actually normal for a rebellious guy like Zum to be deprived of his inheritance, and no one will speak for him even if he is expelled from the family; There is another rumor that can be added here, that is, after Duke Gundogan was confirmed to be short of time, Zum once brought Conaway and Roken to meet Duke Gundogan, hoping that Duke Gundogan could decide his successor before his death, so as to avoid a farce of brothers, but Duke Gundogan still chose to remain silent. ”

"And what's going on? If these two things are true, then it is really possible that Duke Gundogan has made Zum the number one suspect, but I heard that many of the guards in the castle are soldiers brought back by Duke Gundogan? Sun Huiwen said.

"That's right, the guards in the castle now are basically the personal soldiers brought back by Duke Gundogan, and Duke Gundogan usually likes to drink and eat meat with them, or go out hunting or something, but I don't think the chameleon will be mixed with these personal soldiers, because before Duke Gundogan's accident, not only did there be no casualties in the castle, but there was no personnel change, which means that the chameleon has always used the same identity in the castle!"

"Do more wrong, do less wrong, don't do good." Liu Xing said with a smile: "Although this sentence is a crooked sentence in some places, but for the chameleon, this should be its code of conduct, if it can, it will definitely be unwilling to change its identity after entering the castle, so the possibility that the chameleon is Zum is very high, after all, there are only a few people who can have the opportunity to poison Duke Gundogan; However, we can't rule out another possibility, that is, the chameleon empathy, after realizing that the overall situation has been decided, he will directly leave the battlefield, and come back to become Roken or Conaway before Duke Gundogan has not returned to the court? ”

Li Hanxing on the side shook his head and said seriously: "If this is the case, then there is actually a possibility, that is, the chameleon still wants to turn the tide in the end, but it still loses to Duke Gundogan, so it wants to replace Duke Gundogan, but it also knows that its old friend Dark Horse is by Duke Gundogan's side, so it knows that it is not easy for it to get close to Duke Gundogan, so after it learned about the mistakes made by Duke Gundogan when he was young, It was decided to replace Locke or Green first, so that he could not only keep a distance from Duke Gundogan, but also have the opportunity to let Duke Gundogan meet with him privately so that it could do it. ”

As soon as Li Hanxing said this, everyone couldn't help but fall into silence.

After a while, Liu Xingcai said with a wry smile: "We are really as fierce as a tiger in the analysis, but in the end, the target of our suspicion is still those few people, but we can still rank the five Zum, I think the most likely chameleon should be Zum, followed by Locke or Green, and finally Conaway and Rocan." ”

"I agree."

Li Hanxing and Sun Huiwen said in unison.

As for Alice, after thinking for a while, she also nodded and said: "I also agree with Liu Xing's order, because Dark Horse mentioned that the chameleon has no way to prevent itself from emitting that strange smell, so the chameleon is the least likely to be Conaway and Roken, after all, Duke Gundogan is still very concerned about his two sons, and there are more opportunities for contact with him, so if the chameleon becomes Conaway and Roken, there will be a higher chance of being discovered in advance; As for Zum after falling out with his father, except for some necessary occasions, the two of them are not together much, and Locke and Green live directly outside the castle, and there are not many opportunities to meet Duke Gundogan all year round, so if the chameleon becomes them, it is indeed easy to hide until now. ”

Seeing that the three of Alice agreed with his idea, Liu Xing said seriously: "Then let's beware of chameleons according to this ranking, but if we can, we don't want to make any extraneous branches, anyway, even if the chameleon becomes the new duke, it doesn't have much to do with us, because it is unlikely that we will come back after leaving this special world, so we don't need to care so much, and even if necessary, we can also choose to cooperate with chameleons, After all, the chameleon has been doing things everywhere since it left the forest, and I think it must have a lot of good things on its hands, and these things are at least as effective as the horseshoe with great side effects, right? ”

As soon as Liu Xing said this, everyone smiled at the same time.

At this moment, Liu Xing and the others suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves at the gate of the castle, and it seemed that Zum should have led the team back.

At the same time, Liu Xing and the others also noticed that the sun above their heads began to fall rapidly, and the sky soon became dark.

"Looks like it's going to be a bit long tonight." Alice punned, "Then I'll go up and get the nameplate first, and then we'll go to the main castle." ”

When Alice walked up to the second floor and entered her room, Liu Xing whispered four words.

"Geheros?"

"Nine times out of ten!"

Li Hanxing nodded and said, "Although Sun Huiwen and I have checked with the Black Horse and the Flame Monitor Lizard separately, at that time they did see red moonlight, not rusty red moonlight, and they must have not heard any strange sounds during the duration of the red moonlight, but we still have reason to suspect that they accepted Geheros' Blessing', because although there are many original mythical creatures in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, and it is common for real-world gods such as Princess Taketori to be regarded as original Old Gods, there has been no original Old Day Dominator so far, so we have reason to suspect that it is Geheros who emits red moonlight. ”

"In addition, an old ruler like Geholos who comes out with BGM is not open anytime and anywhere, or Geherros's celestial sound may not be a simple sound in nature, but more like when we discover it, there are auditory hallucinations due to the reduction of the SAN value, after all, the sound of the air defense siren represents an impending disaster for us!"
