Sharon said, "Then do as Dingneil wants." ”

Then, she handed Augustine the package containing the soul crystal shards.

Augustine glanced at Roland, didn't talk nonsense, and after reaching out to take the fragments, he was about to turn around and leave.

Roland looked at Augustin's back, gritted his teeth, and finally chased after him.

"What are you following me for? It's not good for a god to follow a demon's ass. Augustine said a little lazily, he didn't bother to look back at Roland, the arrogance that belonged to him on weekdays finally came back at this moment.

Roland was not in the mood to argue with Augustine, but asked with some apprehension: "You always knew that I wasn't dead, right?" ”

Augustine glanced at Roland and said, "Yes." ”

"That'...... Does he know? ”

Augustine stopped suddenly, causing Roland to almost crash into him. Augustine turned his head and looked down at Roland, his eyes were a little sharp, and asked, "So do you want him to think you're dead, or are you alive?" ”

Roland was slightly stunned, not knowing how to answer.

Augustine added: "Whether you are dead or alive is none of my business. What happened before, it was just between the two of you, and it didn't matter to anyone else. Now that he is so convinced of your death that he has never asked me if you are dead, why should I tell him that you are still alive? ”

Roland felt a little speechless, so he had to say to Augustine, "Can I ask you for something?" ”

"What's the matter?"

"If one day in the future he starts questioning my life and death, I hope you can help me hide it."

Listening to Roland's words, Augustine's face couldn't help but have a smile, and he didn't know if it meant mockery or something else.

Augustine said, "It's a bit whimsical that you want a demon to answer the gods' requests, right?" But I don't particularly hate you, at least not as much as the brother who hates you. I will abide by your request, and I will return the favor to him. ”

Gift? What favors?

Roland was a little puzzled by the "he" that Augustine was talking about to return the favor. He felt that this person was unlikely to mean Rand, and naturally it would not be Sharon, and certainly it could not be Dingenier.

But who else?

A new day is about to begin, but at this moment, Twin Moon City is not calm at all.

Not long after dawn, news of the theft of the Prime Minister's Mansion spread in the city, and Archimedes called the city guards to search for the stolen finances, but did not announce what was lost.

Lan Ke flipped through the information that Xiu gave him the night before, and couldn't help but think: It seems that what Xiu said is really not wrong at all!

The current Archimedes, I'm afraid he is already in a hurry, right?

According to Xiu, the soul crystal is related to the demon, so it should be something unseemly, but Archimedes hid it privately. So now that this matter has suddenly been exposed, I'm afraid Archimedes has also offended the devil, right? If Archimedes could remain calm in such a situation, then there would really be a ghost.

Lan Ke felt that the time was almost ripe, and it was time to make his own move.

Thinking of this, Lan Ke stood up and looked at the sky outside, and then ordered: "Prepare, I want to enter the palace." ”

Today's palace seems to be much livelier than usual.

The ministers stood bustling on top of the main hall, whispering about what important things Prime Minister Archimedes had lost, and he wanted to search the whole city in such a big move.

However, although the topic is hot, Archimedes, the protagonist of the topic, did not attend today's court meeting because he was busy looking for lost items, which made the atmosphere in the court much more relaxed than usual.

After all, the king was too young and did not have much majesty among his ministers. So as soon as Archimedes was gone, the atmosphere in the court collapsed all of a sudden, but it was very brisk.

For this loose atmosphere, Rand didn't care too much. He glanced at Noah standing in the crowd and said to the ministers in a very casual tone, "I have something to tell you today. As we all know, what happened in Twin Moon City on that stormy night before was a massacre of the nobles by Lan'er in collusion with external forces, and the consequences were extremely bad! It makes me feel very sad. I also feel that the royal family is ashamed of those loyal nobles. So I decided to rehabilitate them and restore their identity and reputation at the same time. Today, let me introduce you to a minister who has recently been reinstated. Of course, you shouldn't be unfamiliar with him. ”

As soon as Rand's words fell, a figure appeared at the door of the main hall. He walked in slowly, neither arrogant nor humble, and expressionless, looking very young.

At first, the ministers did not take the king's words very seriously. But after seeing the appearance of the person who came, the ministers who were originally loose and casual suddenly became depressed. They couldn't help but have a very bad feeling in their hearts.

The main hall also became quiet all of a sudden.

This new person who appeared on the main hall was actually Xia Zuo, the only heir left in the Twin Moon City by the Clark family, who had already lost their family.

Although Rand has now restored the reputation and status of the Clark family, the Clark family has been devastated in the last storm, and it is difficult for the Clark family to regain its former glory. So Xia Zuo, who is now standing in the main hall, looks a little lonely.

A lonely family is really not to be afraid of, and it no longer poses any threat to others! Not to mention, Xia Zuo is now the only one left in this family!

The ministers present were tempted to think so, so as to comfort themselves. But in fact, ministers are clearly not so optimistic.

Xia Zuo's appearance this time was also unusually dazzling in the eyes of the ministers, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat!

It is precisely because there is only Xia Zuo left in Clark's family now, so although Xia Zuo is a little lonely now, he also has a lot less worries and obstacles! So in the future, when he starts to do things, he will not be as timid as others, because he has nothing to lose!

The news that Bai Lun, the prince of the highlands, had lost the battle with Xia Zuo and was crippled had already spread throughout the continent. Therefore, Xia Zuo's ability, even on the entire continent, no one will question it.

And these nobles present, in the original incident of the collapse of the Clark family, did not stand in line, and there were many who fell into the well to take advantage. To say that Xia Zuo doesn't have any opinion on them now, it's impossible to think about it!

Xia Zuo has now inherited his father's position as duke, and his power is really not to be underestimated.

This also means that as long as Xia Zuo wants to find faults, no nobleman has the confidence to be found and will not be found. And what is the temper of Xia Zuo, the famous young master in the city, the ministers present are also very clear.

Although meticulousness is Xia Zuo's merit, it also means that as long as it is something he believes, there is absolutely no room for redemption!

So now the king suddenly summoned Xia Zuo back to the court, making it clear that he wanted to start cultivating and expanding his own power, and at the same time preparing for the establishment of a new order in the court.

And Xia Zuo is undoubtedly the builder of this new order, the Ombudsman. His appearance not only represents the king's power, but also acts like a warning from the king to the current ministers in the court!

The situation in Twin Moon City seems to be becoming more and more confusing. And Rand, the young monarch, is not as simple as the ministers originally thought!

Among the people present, I am afraid that only Noah can still maintain a relaxed mood. He looked at the king, then at Natsuzo, and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction, as if everything was under control. And Lan Ke also saw all this, and it also made him understand that this Noah is not a simple character.

For some reason, a somewhat complicated emotion rose in Lan Ke's heart, even though he didn't know why.
