Chapter 1290: Relationships and Secrets
It's just that the hole cards of the royal family of the Jindu Kingdom are very hidden, and even the people of several elder families may not know it. Historically, the Kingdom of Jindu has not been without rebellions, and there is even a powerful patriarchal family that wants to replace it. But the results of those rebellions all ended in an inexplicable way, and they ended without even figuring out the royal family's hole cards.
The rebellious patriarch family was originally the head of several patriarchal families in the Jindu Kingdom, and was canonized as the Sea Dragon Family by the founding lord of the Jindu Kingdom. When the Sea Dragon Family launched a rebellion, from the naval fleet to the army, it could be said that they had already mastered more than half of the power of the Jindu Kingdom, and they even had three Sacred Domain powerhouses in charge. There are even rumors that behind the rebellion of the Sea Dragon Family, there is also the covert support of the Illuminati. Although it is only a rumor, it is true that the Illuminati have remained neutral throughout the rebellion.
In this way, the rebels almost swept through the Kingdom of Jindu, bringing the islands under their control, and finally surrounded the capital of the Kingdom of Jindu. Almost everyone thinks that if the Illuminati don't do it again, the Kingdom of Jindu will change hands 100% this time.
But no one expected that without the Illuminati taking action, the situation would be reversed overnight. The three Sacred Domain powerhouses of the Sea Dragon Family have inexplicably disappeared, and those generals in the rebel army have also disappeared and defected, and the Sea Dragon Family has lost everything overnight.
Not to mention others, it is said that even the Illuminati have not figured out what the royal family of the Jindu Kingdom has done. The vast majority of people can only attribute everything to the will of God, or the favor of some god. In short, a vigorous rebellion was quelled in a blink of an eye, and the Sea Dragon family was completely removed from the Jindu Kingdom.
It is precisely because of this incident that although the royal family of the Jindu Kingdom seems to be obviously weak, it also makes the Illuminati quite jealous. This makes the royal power of the Jindu Kingdom and the Illuminati form a strange balance. Although the Illuminati are obviously much more powerful, they cannot completely suppress the royal power. And the royal family of the Kingdom of Jindu. I didn't rely on the unknown hole cards, and in turn suppressed the light, I don't know if I don't want to expose the hole cards, or the power of the hole cards is not enough.
But in any case, this balance between the Kingdom of Jindu and the Illuminati gives others a chance to develop. After the Sea Dragon Family was removed, the remaining patriarchal families still held the military power and various important resources of the Jindu Kingdom for generations. But no one wants to be a king anymore.
These patriarchal families include the giant whale family of Clydia, the ice bear family where Kate is located, the albatross family where Badgers is located, and so on. Their positions in the Jindu Kingdom are almost all hereditary, after all, they are all deep-rooted families, and it is impossible for idiots to control the lifeblood of the family. For example, the Giant Whale family has been in control of the First Fleet of the Jindu Kingdom for generations, and the Ice Bear family has controlled the elite army guards of the Jindu Kingdom. The Albatross family can be said to have occupied the position of prime minister of the Jindu Kingdom for generations.
Although these veteran families have almost no intention of rebelling due to the fear of the royal family's hole cards, this does not prevent them from seeking benefits for their respective families. And. It is precisely this balance between the Kingdom of Jindu and the Illuminati that gives them the opportunity to gain a lot of benefits in the cracks.
Taking advantage of the standstill between the Jindu Kingdom and the Illuminati, several elder families relied on the power in their respective hands and various conveniences to reap benefits for themselves almost to a level of unscrupulousness. Moreover, several major elder families, while acquiring huge wealth, have gradually formed a third-party force. Although at the moment, they are the so-called third forces. It's not far enough to compare with the Kingdom of Jindu and the Illuminati. But over time, I'm afraid they will really be able to grow to the point where they will form a three-legged situation with the Jindu Kingdom and the Illumination.
Of course, with the ability of these patriarchal families, even if they accumulate more wealth. It is almost impossible to compete with the Kingdom of Jindu or the Illuminati. After all, the Kingdom of Jindu has hole cards that people still can't understand, and the strength accumulated by the Illuminati for thousands of years is even more there. Therefore, when it comes to a three-legged stand, it does not mean that they can compete with any side. It's just that they can make the Kingdom of Jindu and the Illumination jealous of them. In other words, it is to become the key that can affect the balance, which side to throw, will give this side the ability to completely suppress the other side, so that neither side will dare to move them easily.
And one more thing, Baggers' son Cantoli, who is now a disciple of the Illuminati Lord, is the most promising candidate to become the next Lord. If Contoli really becomes the next Holy Lord of the Illuminati, then they, a third-party force, may have enough power to suppress the royal family of the Jindu Kingdom.
However, if the Illuminati and the Supreme Council reached some secret agreement that upset this balance between the Kingdom of Jindu and the Illuminati, it would be quite terrifying for them.
First of all, if the Illuminati have the power to completely suppress the Kingdom of Jindu through their cooperation with the Supreme Council, then this third-party force they have formed will become somewhat redundant. Secondly, their means of accumulating wealth are not all very open-minded, and once the Illuminati do not need to care about the Jindu Kingdom, they may have to be slaughtered as fat sheep.
Even if the Illuminati don't take them under their knife, the royal family of the Jindu Kingdom may take back their power step by step in order to enhance the strength of the confrontation. After all, after the rebellion of the Sea Dragon Family, the royal family of the Jindu Kingdom no longer has the absolute trust in these veteran families as they did at the beginning of the founding of the country. And now they still leave those armies and other powers to the control of the patriarchal families, but they don't want to cause major turmoil, and they don't want to force these patriarchal families to the side of the Illuminati.
In fact, after the rebellion of the Sea Dragon Family, the royal family of the Jindu Kingdom has begun to gradually support the emerging forces. And the rise of this emerging force naturally has to divide some power from the hands of the patriarchal family. It's just that the patriarchal family is not so easy to deal with, and if they don't make any big mistakes, the royal family can't really turn against them. Therefore, the emerging forces under the support of the royal family have not really touched the core interests of the patriarchal family, and they cannot really confront the patriarchal family.
The crowd led by Baggers, because of Critya's words, began to have infinite associations, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt fear. They had seen with their own eyes that the Adiman Sage, who had always been unsmiling, had a rare and cordial attitude towards the Fourth Arbiter of the Supreme Council, Ferret. If the Illuminati had no deeper connection to the Supreme Council, could the Adiman have the same attitude towards Nafere?
"No, we can't go on like this, we can't let the Supreme Council and the Illuminati cooperate!" Kate was able to become the head of the Praetorian Guard, and naturally she was not an idiot who didn't know anything, and she quickly thought of the terrible consequences. But how to solve this problem, he couldn't think of any good way at all, and the Illuminati was not opened by his family, so it could only be a few meaningless shouts.
Baggers turned his gaze to his son Cantoli, hoping that his son would be able to provide him with some useful information by virtue of his status as a disciple of the Holy Lord.
However, in the face of his father's inquiring gaze, Cantoli could only shake his head helplessly, and said: "I have not heard anything about this matter, and I don't think they will tell me about it. ”
It's true that Cantoli is a disciple of the Illuminati Lord, but he only learns magic from his teacher, and is not qualified to really participate in the important decisions of the Illuminati. What's more, everyone knows his identity, and the people over there are not stupid, how could they tell him such an important thing.
Although Contoli relied on his identity to win over some people in the Illuminati, the level of the Adiman Sage was obviously not something he could woo. Not to mention that he has not yet become the Holy Lord of the Illuminati, even if he really succeeds to the position of the Holy Lord, the Four Great Sages will not obey him.
"Actually, what I'm most worried about now is not how to continue to deal with these two parties in the future, although this is also important, but our family has been operating in the Jindu Kingdom for such a long time, such a thing can only make our family decline for a while, but it is far from annihilation......" Baggers said as he looked at everyone and was full of worry.
Baggers's words made everyone feel a little puzzled, is there anything more important than the destruction of the living environment of his own family forces? You must know that once that speculation comes true, even if their family forces will not be suppressed immediately, they will not be able to continue to do many profiteering things they have done in the past, so as not to be seized by the royal family and the Illuminati.
"Badgers, what are you talking about, isn't our future situation the most worrying?" It's all her own people, and Critya didn't hide her confusion and asked Baggers bluntly.
Baggers nodded slightly, his gaze swept over everyone's faces, and said in a low voice: "I'm worried that if the things left by our ancestors are known to the royal family or the Illuminati, it will be a real disaster......
As soon as Baggers mentioned this topic, which he almost never mentioned, the faces of everyone present suddenly became a little stiff, and the atmosphere that had always been normal became strange with this sentence.
