Bang!!

Dark clouds cover the top, and heavy rain is coming.

The weather in King's Harbour is as fickle as ever, with the sun shining one moment and the rain pouring the next.

In the palace study perched on the cliffs, Wood VI stood by a huge glass window, holding a wine glass in his hand, quietly listening to the rolling thunder outside the window.

This rain is long overdue.

Most people love the sun because it brings light and heat, gives hope and warmth to life, and at the same time keeps filth undetected.

However, long hours of sunshine can make people lazy, and the warm and pleasant climate does not give birth to flowers that are not afraid of frost.

As in the current situation in King's Port.

The good location and affluent life have made King's Port immersed in a false peace from top to bottom, and everyone has forgotten that the world in which they live is still in crisis and war.

The aristocracy was bent on accumulating money, and the people were not enterprising.

Everyone would like to have gold in their hands instead of swords.

But the sword must be held by someone!

It's time for a rain like the one outside the window to clean up the drowsy atmosphere of the country!

As long as his plan goes ahead, tomorrow's King's Harbour will be reborn after the rainstorm!

But... Can everything really go so smoothly?

Wood VI took a sip of the crystal-clear wine from his glass, then turned around and placed it back on his desk.

"How, how did he reply?"

"Your Majesty, he didn't give an immediate reply...... "In front of the desk, the Minister of War, dressed in a three-color silk robe, stood solemnly and recounted what had happened to him when he delivered the letter before.

"Norman... The Joshua family ...... Wood VI lowered his eyes, and there was no emotion on his face.

He had long known that his reform plan would never be supported by the Joshua family, who had a lot of interests in their hands, but he did not expect that the other party would make such a blatant statement of his position......

After a long silence, Wood VI raised his face and looked at Marcy: "I suddenly regret Marcy now, maybe I should allow you to investigate the mansions of those 'nobles'......"

"......" Marcy didn't know how to answer for a moment.

There was only one day left before the Fertility Sacrifice, and even if the king signed the warrant, they would not have time to search.

"It's my fault, I'm too forward-looking......"

Wood VI sighed: "The Joshua family is in such a hurry to express their position, I am afraid that the hole cards in their hands are far from being as simple as we imagined......"

“... How is the investigation of the 'Cult of the True God' going? ”

"It's not going well, Your Majesty, those guys seem to have an evil ability that can disappear anytime and anywhere, and our people can't find any trace of their activities in the kingdom......"

Marcy bowed her head in shame.

"It's not your fault, if they could be found out so easily, the Kingdom of Kegistan across the coast wouldn't be in such a mess now......"

Wood VI shook his head as if he had anticipated it.

What happened in the desert kingdom on the other side of the Nobil Sea has long since spread throughout the First World.

Hakan II was assassinated by a cultist of the True God in his elaborate disguise, and remains in a coma.

The whole kingdom was full of rumors, and large and medium-sized towns were crowded with refugees who had left their homes.

The cultists of the True God Cultists raid small villages and towns and other poorly defended settlements, killing everyone in the village and town every time they succeed, and then mysteriously disappearing before the large army arrives to encircle them.

These cultists obviously have a very strong ability to conceal their whereabouts, and even the one he desperately wants to win over has not been able to completely eradicate this cult in Kaijistan.

Marcy couldn't find any trace of them, and it was understandable.

Having said that, Wood VI now had to pay attention to the investigation report submitted by Marcy earlier, which mentioned rumors that the aristocratic faction appeared to be in contact with the Cult of the True God.

At first, Wood VI did not believe that the kingdom's important ministers would be so unwise to bring these cultists, who seemed to be in collusion with Hell, into their own domestic strife.

This is a taboo, and at the same time an unpardonable sin that leads to hell!

Once the East Window incident happens, the parliament will definitely use thunderous means to completely eradicate them!

Now, however, in the face of the Joshua family's seemingly confident moves, Wood VI has to re-face this possibility.

He knew that if a person was cornered, he could do anything.

The current Magerie and Joshua families are almost cornered.

Therefore, he must guard against the possibility that they will jump over the wall and sell their souls to cooperate with Hell and pull themselves off the horse.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the corner of the room, where a figure in a blue-gray robe stood silently in the shadows.

Seeing this figure, Wood VI felt a little relieved.

In any case, they also have two legendary powerhouses on their side, and only one Anthony is on the surface.

As long as that one does not join the other party's camp, then no matter what, he has the confidence to control the situation!

Wood VI took another sip from the glass on the table, the sweet syrup flowing down his throat like a stream of ice.

"Ma Xiqing."

"I'm here, Your Majesty, what do you command?"

"The security work on the day of the festival must be arranged, and no one must be allowed to take advantage of the loopholes!"

"I understand, don't worry, I have already deployed most of the strength of the Shining SHIELD LEGION near the place where the festival will be held, and at the same time, the ancestor has promised to be there to watch the ceremony, even if the Joshua family is there in person, under the double suppression of the ancestor and Lord Angels, I believe he will not dare to come nonsense."

"Well, that's good..."

"By the way, the council envoys and Mr. Kane, what's the news lately?"

Wood VI nodded, and then suddenly continued to ask as if he had thought of something.

"Mr. Kane and the council's envoys have been staying at the residence since they met with us and the other nobles, and I heard that they are also investigating the Cult of God... But the lord lived with them......"

"Well, that's normal, these two have always had a good relationship, and I heard that it was the one who rescued Mr. Kane from Leorick's clutches......"

"Hmm... And one more thing, it's about the two Amazons who followed the adult... Earlier news from the Harlogas side... I'm afraid it's true......"

When mentioning this, Marcy also had a hint of envy and surprise on his face.

"News from Harlogas?" Wood VI was stunned for a moment, and then his face suddenly became wonderful.

"You mean those two... The two ladies have also advanced to the Legends?! ”

"Yes, when I went to deliver the invitation before, those two ladies happened to be there, as far as the perception of the subordinates is concerned, it should be right......"

“... Three Legends... Add Mr. Kane... Hehe, this is really a force that can turn the world upside down! ”

Wood VI shook his head with a wry smile.

The only legendary powerhouse around him was hired at a great cost, and as a result, there were now four legendary-level people gathered in a small envoy residence.

This makes him really feel good, isn't it......
