Chapter 262: Alternatives
readx;
After listening to Felisty's words, Avi also began to understand the actions of the House Ghosts, and if the House Ghosts were messengers of justice, as they themselves claimed, then their goal was obvious. www.biquge.info They want to maintain justice, and the aristocratic officials who hide in the corners, playing with intrigues and perverting the law are their enemies, and they may be more righteous than the inquisitors of the Oguna Empire - no, the inquisitors of the Empire only claim to be righteous, but in fact they are no different from demons.
"If I didn't have any responsibilities and no tasks on my shoulders, maybe I'd join those Academy Ghosts. ”
"Didn't you say you had to make enough money to go home and bring your family—" Felistie suddenly remembered the uncertainty of Avi's mother's fate and swallowed back the second half of her sentence.
Avi sensed what Felisti meant, he immediately smiled and said: "It's okay, although I didn't reply to the letter I sent back to Golden Hoof City, but this is also very normal, my mother may have left Golden Hoof City, she is a very capable and capable woman, Jiren has her own natural appearance..."
"Well, by the way, I found something while tracking that academy ghost, you see. Felisti pulled out a piece of paper from a book.
Avi, who was about to walk out of the Kestrel Academy, immediately stopped, "Test options for the eldest prince Bradley?" Avi saw three options written on the paper, it seemed that this was the test that the ghost of the academy was preparing to leave to Prince Bradley.
Amme's test was Amme's own cronies, and Amsoil not only brought the three corrupt officials who were pulled out by the ghosts of the academy to justice, but also arrested many corrupt officials who were implicated, which can be said to have overfulfilled the task in a short period of time. Walter's test is to find the traitors hiding in the kingdom of Salins, whether it is collusion with other countries or malicious organizations, but this test has been partially completed by Amsoil in advance. Today, the three test options written on paper look even more difficult.
The first is to "thoroughly investigate the incident in the White Orphanage, treat every orphan who was victimized fairly, and severely punish the mastermind behind the scenes." This option surprised Avi, who thought that the matter of the White Orphanage was over, after all, the previous investigation had been taken care of by the top of the kingdom, and those orphans had been properly cared for. Unexpectedly, the ghosts of the academy still remembered this matter, and the backers behind this test were not as simple as ordinary corrupt officials.
"Michelle and Adie have already made contact with me," Felisty said suddenly, explaining before Avi asked, "they have fled to live in the Free City, where they are safe for the time being, but I have also learned that Archibald, the director of the White Orphanage, has not been punished as he deserves, and if the house ghost throws this test to the Grand Prince, then it will be possible to see if Bradley is really righteous." ”
"Don't you remember that Prince Bradley was on the side of the victim and sheltered me and you?"
"Remember, but that was when he just returned to the capital, and now the incident at the White Orphanage has disappeared like a smoke, no one asks about it anymore, no one mentions it anymore, and the eldest prince you admire has put all his mind on competing for the position of prince, which is also true. ”
Avi couldn't argue with Felisty's words, because that's exactly what happened. If it weren't for Felisty telling him about Xiaomi, Avi himself would have gradually forgotten what happened in the White Orphanage, and what he desperately wanted to protect in front of Evan.
"If there is any more news about Xiaomi and Ah Die, remember to tell me! I'm worried about them too! I care about them!" Avi's voice was loud enough, but at this time, there were few people in the Kestrel Academy, and no one stood at the gate of the academy and did not leave.
The second option is to "rehabilitate those who have been wronged, including the Knights of the Snake and Spear". Avi had just glanced at this option, and the words written on paper by the ghost of the academy seemed to imply that the Snake Spear Knights were innocent and had been framed. Avi has also been framed, so this kind of grievance is very clear to Avi. He didn't know if what the Ghost of the College knew was the truth, because King Byron had given Bradley a completely opposite test - one to rehabilitate the Snake Gun Knights, and the other to crusade against them.
For the knights who have already taken refuge in the deep mountains and forests, the great prince who can fight well will obviously threaten them. The Knights of the Snake Spear, who have not been held accountable, have become victims of the dispute between the princes, and King Byron may have already wanted to find out Demps, who was suspected of rebellion in the first place, and now he is taking this opportunity to test Bradley's ability by the way.
"Knights of the Snake Spear... Whether they are innocent or not is just a word from the ruler, could it be that there are people from the Snake Spear Knights in these Academy ghosts?"
Avi shook his head, and he looked at the last option—"Eradicate the funeral mercenary group that has been hiding in the Kingdom of Sarins." ”
"This alternate test option..."
"Well, the funeral mercenary group, one of the nine mercenary groups of the Mercenary Guild, a mysterious mercenary group like the Holy Spirit Mercenary Group, rarely appears in the public eye," Felisty leaned against the wall and explained, "They have been living in the Kingdom of Salins for many years, low-key and hidden, there are many rumors about this mercenary group, and some people say that the reason why the eldest prince Bradley can convince the entire western part of the Kingdom of Salins is because of the help of this mercenary group." ”
"Why do the regular army and the royal family need the help of the mercenary group..."
"Sometimes the things that nobles need to do are the things that good people do, and the dirty things have to be left in the hands of the mercenary group. In the past, there were many islands in the sea west of the Kingdom of Sallins that harbored pirates, but they were later solved by Prince Bradley one by one, and the mercenary group should be credited here. ”
"Are they mercenary groups that are good at naval warfare? I really don't know much about this mercenary group. ”
"Not good at naval warfare, but because of their strength. Those pirates hiding on small islands with their backs to the sea are not afraid of regular armies, but the mercenaries of the funeral mercenary group have terrifying strength, and they are not comparable to the regular army. ”
Avi knew the names of the nine mercenary groups, and probably knew that these nine mercenary groups were distributed all over the continent, and each seemed to have its own sphere of influence, and did not interfere with each other. If this mysterious mercenary group is really regarded as an object that must be eradicated by the ghosts of the academy, does that mean that this mercenary group is evil, and unlike the neutral mercenary group, they are the enemies of the messengers of justice?
"No matter which one the Academy Ghost throws out, I'm sure they'll give a reason and a basis," Avi remembered what Silanos had said to himself, "and I believe they are righteous." ”
"Let justice choose a suitable prince... Although the idea of the house ghost is a bit naïve and naïve, it is still quite interesting... At least all three test options are a little interesting. Felistie didn't take the piece of paper back, she said that she would continue to track down and investigate the house ghosts, she estimated that all the house ghosts were top students in the kestrel academy, and only the smartest, especially good people would have this sense of mission.
"There won't be any danger, right..."
"Since they are all a group of students with outstanding abilities, it should be time to find me, and I have been the first in the class in my recent exams. The red-haired girl had just left the academy after showing off her grades, and she didn't tell Avi that it was much better to study than to be a magic apprentice and spy assassin.
For the rest of the week, Avi followed Fenrir's orders, not going anywhere except for class, and following Stitch home after class to avoid being caught by Count Ferremon's men, after all, Prince Walter still regarded Avi and Van as traitors. Especially under the premise that some of the traitors in the city have been arrested, the slightest suspicion will be targeted.
Avi also noticed that someone was following and watching him on the way to and from class, and this situation is estimated to last for a long time, during this time, Fan did not dare to go out often, and every time he slipped out of the house, he had to pass through the small window, like a cat stealing fish to eat.
Within a few days, news of the execution of history teacher Rost reached Avi's ears. It was a particularly gloomy day, with dark clouds covering the top, the sultry heat of the spring tail was oppressive, the humid air made even the paper sticky, and everyone wanted to take a shower before work. Avi couldn't concentrate at all in class, and Roster's nagging repeatedly appeared in Avi's mind, and the sky, which had not rained, was like a sealed net, overwhelming Avi.
In the afternoon, Avi's mood was still the same as that of a tightened rope, but Sylanes suddenly returned to the classroom after disappearing for many days.
"Teacher Rost is dead. Avi whispered as the other sat down.
"Well, I know," Celenos's hair color changed slightly, and some new black hair appeared at the bottom of the blue hair, "he is a man of integrity, and he deserves to be framed like this." ”
Avi was stunned, he suddenly remembered one of the three test choices, "Will someone help him rehabilitate?" I also don't believe that Teacher Rost is a traitor to the Kingdom of Sarins!"
Who knows? Only those who have a sense of justice and are capable will help rehabilitate others. Silanos shrugged, and as usual, he opened the textbook, looked at it twice, and then closed it.
Avi hesitated for a long time before he said to Cyrannos, "If you can, I want you to tell the Ghosts of the Academy, and let them give the Great Prince Bradley that test!
"Why are the Academy Ghosts helping you?"
"They are messengers of righteousness. Avi remembered the "righteous verdict" he had suffered, which was not true justice.
"Incompetent and cowardly people don't deserve to talk about justice, just like you, and can only beg others for help, which is ridiculous. Celenos laughed dryly twice.
