Chapter 11: Under the Shadows

Under Lake Geneva, in the Temple of Light, the atmosphere in the parliament is cloudy.

"Councillors, we have faced the greatest challenge since the end of the world, and if we fail to cross this hurdle, we will once again lose the opportunity to control the entire world." Speaker Ignaz's voice was low and cold.

"In China, we encountered stubborn resistance from Doomsday Phoenix, and the situation in the later stages of the war did not go very well." The mask covers Alicia. Onassis's face, but the woman's anger could still be heard in her voice, and she almost gritted her teeth.

"Alicia, if the four second-order powerhouses were killed in battle and chased all the way by the Phoenix army were only considered to be not going well, how could it be considered a defeat? On this occasion of the Parliament, I think you should not try to cover it up. ”

Derek was also angry about the council's differential punishment of the Collins and Onassis, and now that the Onassis family had lost, he couldn't help but jump out.

Alicia didn't have any excuse for Derek's accusations, and she didn't even look at the patriarch of the Collins family, just looked at Ignaz calmly.

"Regarding the situation on the Chinese side, Alicia has reported to the parliament in detail. The specific battle report is in the folder you have at hand, and you may not have had time to read it yet. Ignaz explained lightly, and glanced at Derek intentionally when explaining.

Derek deliberately dodged Ignaz's reproachful gaze, and he was looking down at the battle report in his hand like the other councillors.

A slight sound of surprise followed, and all the other councillors except Ignaz and Alicia had seen the battle damage in detail for the first time. The number of battle losses made the patriarchs of each family tremble.

You must know that in the last year of the Apocalyptic War in China, the Illuminati, including the missing Nelson, only lost five second-order powerhouses and 10,000 directly subordinate Bright Army, while the losses of the Bright Army in Xinjiang exceeded this number in just one war.

"Heinrich brought half of the Knights of the Holy Sword, and he was defeated so badly?" One wonders.

Ignaz took the initiative to take over, "The main responsibility for the defeat of the Xinjiang side is not the Onassis family. The intelligence agency of the "Shadow Army" has re-evaluated the combat power of Doomsday Phoenix, and the individual combat power of the Phoenix Special Combat Team Evolvers is much stronger than that of the knights of our three major knights, and the combat power of several of their super powerhouses is also slightly stronger than the second-order powerhouses of each family, and Chi Hua's combat power has reached the same height as the leaders of the three major knights. ”

The astonishment in the conference room was louder. As members of the Parliament, they are well aware of the strong military analysis and evaluation capabilities of the intelligence agencies under the "Shadow Army", and they have successfully predicted the outcome of the two world wars through military intelligence analysis.

There is no absolute light in the world, and where there is light, there is shadow.

The "Shadow Army" is a mysterious unit hidden behind the Light Army and the Three Knights, and it directly obeys the Speaker. Except for the members of the Council of Light and the three Knight Leaders, almost no one within the Illuminati even knew about the existence of this mysterious force.

The three major knights under the Council of Light are the Templar King, the leader of the Holy Sword Knights, King Arthur, the head of the Knights of the Round Table, and the King of Light, the leader of the Knights of Light. The three major knight leaders are the highest force of the Illuminati, and each of them is a second-order peak powerhouse, and it is said that he may enter the third-order powerhouse realm of the legendary god realm at any time.

And Chi Hua actually reached the same height!

According to the research of the Illuminati, the first-order evolutionary is only the difference between the strong and the ordinary person, the second-order evolutionary will reach the gap between superhumans and ordinary people, and the third-order evolutionary will reach the gap between humans and gods. A third-order powerhouse has the power to destroy the world if he makes a move at will, and the third-order is likely to be the pinnacle of human evolution.

He must be strangled before Chi Hua enters the third order, otherwise he will become a great trouble for the Illuminati once he enters the legendary god realm!

Ignaz continued: "In view of the latest assessment of the combat power of Doomsday Phoenix by the 'Shadow Army', led by Douglas, 10,000 Bright Army have been urgently reinforced to the Chinese battlefield. In addition, in view of Chi Hua's strong combat power, the Prince of Light led two hundred Bright Knights to go on the expedition together. ”

Ignaz sighed, "Even so, our reinforcements are one step behind the Doomsday Phoenix army, otherwise there would be no defeat for Aiden and Heinrich on the battlefield." In addition, I would like to apologize to you for not having the authorization of the Parliament for the reinforcements due to the urgency of the situation. ”

As soon as Ignaz finished speaking, the conference room immediately boiled, and the patriarchs of the various families, who had always been calm, could no longer maintain their composure.

The councillors were obviously not concerned about the fact that they had not been authorized by the council, but that the King of Light had actually gone on the expedition!

The position of the three knight commanders in the Illuminati armament, like the position of nuclear weapons in a country's military weapons sequence, plays a strategic deterrent role and cannot be used easily. And the King of Light, as the head of the three major knight leaders, is even more useless when there is no big thing that will not fight, it is said that he has been in retreat to impact the third order before, but he didn't expect to get out of the customs for Chi Hua this time!

Douglas, who led the troops, was not an ordinary person, he was the eldest son of Ignaz and the first in line to the Rothschild family.

The members of the Bright King's war were only surprised but not worried, because so far, no one has been able to pose a threat to the Bright King. However, a few parliamentarians who were close to the Rothschilds were a little worried about Douglas, after all, the Chinese battlefield was extremely dangerous, and as many as nine second-order powerhouses of the Illuminati had fallen on that land.

"Speaker, it's too dangerous to let Douglas lead troops to China, right? He is the first in line to the throne of your Rothschilds, do you want someone else to replace him? "It was the patriarch of the Merovingian family, and European royalty had maintained good relations with the Rothschilds for hundreds of years.

Ignaz was not moved at all, and said lightly: "Only the heirs who have been tested by the war and survived have the qualifications to become the next patriarch of the Rothschild family." If he dies in battle, it only means that he is not capable enough to be the next patriarch of the family. ”

A feminine voice suddenly sounded, "Now that the King of Light has gone to war, the war in China should have a result soon." What is the source of our biggest challenge, as the Speaker just mentioned? "It was Angus, the patriarch of the House of Dupont, who spoke. Dupont.

"Angus, it's too easy for you to think about China's war, China is not only a super force in Doomsday Phoenix, and there is not only one super powerhouse at Chi Hua's level, and even the King of Light himself is not sure of victory."

Without waiting for the parliamentarians to marvel, Ignas continued: "The Chinese battlefield is only one of the challenges, and we are not going well in the later stages of the war with the "bloody tsar" in Russia, and Fairman and the Astor family have not been able to open up the situation for a long time. Just received the battle report, Leo. Astor fell in the Novosibirsk region. ”

"But what really worries us is that the 'Shadow Army' has received an update on the situation, the situation within the 'Bloody Tsar' has been a bit strange lately, and Leonid seems to be planning something big. ”

"I think the turmoil within the 'Bloody Tsar' is an opportunity for us, maybe the parliament should add another family to fight against Russia?" Angus spoke again.

"Do the Duponts also want a piece of the pie in Russia? You'd better get rid of the Nordic resistance first. Derek was the first to jump out against it, and he had long held his breath for Angus's previous actions against the Collins family.

Ignaz raised his hand to stop the two from continuing their argument, "Although Leonid is powerful and has caused us a lot of trouble, it is not what we are really worried about, what I am really worried about is that he will unleash the most terrifying existence this time. ”

The parliamentarians in the audience looked at each other, not understanding for a moment what Ignaz meant.

Alicia suddenly asked tentatively, "Do you mean that child?" ”

Ignaz didn't seem to want to continue on this issue, and didn't answer Alicia's question directly, but said in a deep voice: "We have recently lost a large number of super powerhouses intensively, plus the three of Philip and Nisa who fell in the Himalayas in the early stage, the council has recently lost eight second-order powerhouses. ”

There was a deathly silence in the council, and there were eight second-order powerhouses!

The number of second-order powerhouses of a medium-sized super force is no more than that, and the successive deaths of super powerhouses have already made the council's use of troops on some battlefields begin to be overstretched.

"There is also information that a 3,000-strong force sent by the parliament to the African region has been wiped out in Niger. All the 100 knights of the Knights of the Round Table who accompanied the army were also killed, and only Geraint, the Knight of the Round Table, escaped with serious injuries. ”

At first, there was no strong reaction from the parliamentarians, because there were too many surprises today, and even the shocking news was, the parliamentarians were no longer surprised.

It was still Alicia who reacted first, "Impossible, there is no superpower in Africa at all, it is completely scattered there, who attacked them?" ”

"It's not a human, it's a mutated beast! An entire army, including a hundred Knights of the Round Table, fell to the claws of the mutated beasts. "Dead by the herd, dead without a body, Ignatz's description of the voice is chilling.

"Did they happen to encounter a wave of mutant beasts?" A lawmaker suddenly thought of a possibility.

Ignaz shook his head slightly, "Geraint said that it is more terrifying than the tide of mutant beasts, those fierce beasts don't seem to have lost their minds at all, but more like an army. ”

All the parliamentarians fell silent.

"All the MPs are clear about the real purpose of the parliament sending troops into Africa, where the unknown virus and the original evolutionary began, and now it seems that there must be a very terrible change there."

I thought that the Illuminati was in control of everything, but suddenly found that there were some mysterious things that were completely out of control, and the unknown was the most terrifying!

This last piece of information is probably the biggest challenge for the Illuminati in Ignaz's mouth......
