Chapter 912: A Sudden Accident

"What's going on?" Viscount Campbell, the Minister General of Defense of the French Palace, looked at the half-empty display stand with a gloomy face, looked at the corpse of Count Phelps on the ground, suppressed the anger in his heart, and turned his head to ask the general of the palace guards, janissaries, and royal guards who were silent behind him.

The generals looked at each other, unsure of how to answer the question of their immediate superior, because they had just heard the sirens and rushed over, and they didn't know anything about what was happening.

However, a grand knight of the Royal Guard stepped forward at this time to relieve his boss and quickly and briefly explain the situation.

It turned out that not long after Count Phelps led the people into the treasury, two more scholars and most of them left, and there was no movement in the treasury for a long time, and Count Phelps did not come out.

Due to some rules, the royal guards and janissaries guarding outside the treasure house were not allowed to enter the treasure house to check, so they thought of an emergency solution, that is, they directly found the grand knight and the captain of the guard and the captain of the guard who were located in the royal guard station, as well as the chief attendant of the feast palace, and several people entered the treasure house together to check the situation, and they saw the scene that was happening now.

Viscount Campbell listened to the reality of the Grand Knight, looked at the scholars on the ground who had been picked up and the door opened opposite the treasure house, and said, "Are the thieves from the research institute?"

"It should be," one of the generals quickly replied, knowing some of the situation, "they just passed the news over there, and the Silent Knight and the Royal Guard over there are dead. โ€

Viscount Campbell frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Why don't you investigate ......?"

"No!" the commander of the Royal Guard quickly shook his head and explained, "The Seventh Research Institute is not the same system as us, and we are not allowed to enter the Seventh Research Institute without permission. โ€

Viscount Campbell glared at his subordinates with an annoyed expression, and said angrily: "What rules do you care about at this time, if you don't find out the whereabouts of the thieves as soon as possible and recover the contents of the treasure house, you and I will be sent to Berencant Prison by Your Majesty." โ€

Although Viscount Campbell said this, those commander-in-chief generals just nodded yes, and none of them went to the Seventh Research Institute to investigate the incident, because they knew very well that the Seventh Research Laboratory was absolutely taboo, and if the treasure house was lost, everyone would take responsibility together, and the most serious thing would only be to be dismissed from their positions, or transferred to the front line, but if they were not allowed to go to the Seventh Research Institute, it would definitely be a dead end.

At this time, the people guarding the door of the treasure house got out of the way, and a middle-aged man dressed in scholar's clothes walked in with a gloomy face.

Everyone saw this middle-aged man and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, it turned out that this person was named Ferrandi Mousse, an adviser to Louis X, although he did not hold any position and real power, but he had an extraordinary status, he could influence the overall decision-making of the country, he was one of the most trusted people of the Emperor of France, and he was also a student of the Count of Phelps.

After he entered, his eyes fell on the corpse of Earl Phelps, without showing much sadness, and then his gaze quickly glanced inside the treasure house, and landed on the statue from the stone throne in the treasure house, seeing that the statue was not lost, his originally tense face relaxed slightly.

"You're right that you didn't go to the Seventh Research Institute to investigate," said Ferlandi, relieved, turning to the generals, and then to the Consul General for Defense. His Majesty has sent a special person to the Seventh Research Institute, and the results of the investigation will be reported directly to His Majesty, and there is no need for thieves to look for them in the palace, the new airship that was being tested just now did not fly around the palace according to the predetermined route, but flew out of the imperial capital, it should have been hijacked by bandits, and now what you have to do is to immediately investigate the insiders, those two people can easily get from the treasure house, and without alarming any guards in the palace, arrive at the airship test point at the exact time, it is obvious that there are people in the palace who are answering them, so what you have to do now is to accept the investigation of the Imperial Security Agency's Department of Internal Affairs, including you, Viscount Campbellใ€‚ โ€

Hearing Fairlandy's words, everyone's faces looked extremely ugly, although they were now exempted from the danger of entering the prison, they had to be investigated by the Imperial Security Agency's Department of Internal Affairs, which seemed to them to be easier than going to prison.

Fairlandi ignored the expressions of the people around him, he gave an order to the few people he brought, and then pointed to the stone sculpture of the stone throne, this thing was extremely important to Louis X, even more than the thing in the seventh laboratory, and now the treasure house is no longer safe, naturally this thing cannot be kept here, it must be moved to other places.

After hearing Fairlandi's command, the men immediately walked over to the stone sculpture of the Stone Throne, each took out a pair of gloves and put them on, and then chanted some incantations that did not make any sense to the others, and as the sound of their incantations resounded in the treasury, their gloves also emitted bursts of light, and then they were seen reaching out and grabbing the stone sculpture, as if they were asking a few people to carry the very heavy stone sculpture away.

However, the moment their gloves touched the stone sculpture, an accident happened, and the stone statue instantly shattered into sand like quicksand, scattered from the display stand, and fell to the ground.

The entire treasure house fell silent in an instant, and everyone looked at what was happening in front of them, stunned, unable to say anything.

At this moment, a miserable cry suddenly sounded from the palace on the ground, and then the earth began to tremble violently.

Fairlandi didn't say anything, and rushed outside in a panic, and the others didn't know why they followed, and when they rushed out of the royal guard's station, rushed out of the main hall of the Feast Palace, and rushed outside the palace, they were all instantly stunned by what they saw.

In the middle of the net, a huge monster that could not be described in words was struggling violently, and each of his struggles caused the entire palace and even the entire Winter Rin City to tremble violently.

After seeing the situation outside, Fairlandi immediately felt a burst of horror, and his heart seemed to be invaded by some chaotic force, and the whole person's soul seemed to be dragged into some unspeakable horror world.

However, at this moment, the Turing circle on Fairlandi's clothes suddenly shone with a burst of light, not only pulling his soul back from the edge of that terrifying world, but also clearing the source of chaos in his heart and restoring him to a calm state. 315 Chinese Network

"Oh no, it's a divine revelation! don't ......" Fairlandy, who had regained his senses, immediately understood what was going on, and hurriedly issued a warning to the people who followed him, but when he saw those people, the words of warning immediately stopped, because he knew it was too late.

I saw that the Minister General of Defense, the generals of the various palace guard legions, and some other knights, janissaries, and guards who came out with Fairlandi all stood in place expressionlessly, staring straight at the huge monster figure, and there was a kind of fanaticism in their eyes, a kind of frenzy full of chaos.

Just as Ferrandi was about to do something, the huge network of colorful lights in the sky burst out with dazzling brilliance, binding the unspeakable monster, shrinking rapidly, and finally disappearing, and at the moment when the monster disappeared, all those who had fallen into an inexplicable frenzy also returned to normal, at least on the surface.

However, Fairlandy, who understands what is going on, knows that things are not so simple, and that they are just beginning.

Although Leo and Sylvia's airship had already flown far away when there was a big movement in Winter Rin City, and Winter Rin City could hardly be seen, the sight of the colorful light net and the unspeakable giant monster projected into the air was still sensed and seen by Leo and Sylvia.

"What's going on?" Although it was already far away, Leo could still feel some strange emotions in his heart when he saw the unspeakable monster, and at the same time, he felt the energy fluctuations that were very similar to those of the corpse collector, the true eye and other gods, which made him ask with some confusion.

"I didn't think the legend was true!" Leo didn't expect an answer, but Sylvia responded thoughtfully as his words fell.

"Do you know what's going on?" asked Leo again.

"There used to be a legend among the top nobles of the empire, in which it was mentioned that the place of Winter Rin City was not suitable for building a city back then, and in order to be able to build a city here, the Knight King personally went to the Black Forest to kill an evil god and made it the cornerstone of Winter Rin City. Sylvia explained briefly, and added: "But no one believes this legend at all, but thinks that it is a story made up by the royal family of France in order to boast about how noble and powerful their royal blood is, but now, this may not be a story." โ€

At this time, the colorful light net and the monster also disappeared, and the two returned to the bridge to control the direction of the airship.

Although it looked like something big had happened in Winter Rin City, it didn't arouse too much curiosity among the two, and their thoughts were now more focused on getting the airship to fly near the Black Forest as soon as possible.

When the airship flew over a small hill and could not see Winter Rin City at all, Leo suddenly seemed to think of something, with a contemplative look on his face, and then said, "Do you think that monster will be the Knight King?"

Hearing Leo's words, Sylvia was stunned for a moment, wanting to refute Leo's guess, but the rebuttal retracted when it came to her mouth, because although Leo's guess seemed very ridiculous, it was not impossible to think about it carefully.

Before, Leo had guessed from some signs that the Knight King might still be alive, but a mortal, even a mortal with extraordinary powers, no matter how long he lived, it would be difficult to live for hundreds of years, and people like Saran, the Chosen King, were definitely an anomaly, and only by becoming a god or demigod could they have a long lifespan.

If the Knight King is indeed alive as Leo thinks, then there are two possibilities, one is that he has a complete hibernation pod and freezes himself to sleep, and the other is that he becomes a god, even if it is an evil god.

In the past, Leo preferred the Knight King to use the Hibernation Pod to prolong his life, because judging from various circumstances, the Knight King or the people around the Knight King knew how to use it, and even were proficient in those cosmic civilization technologies, otherwise it would be impossible to make reasonable modifications to those dormant pods, so that they could be used for hundreds of years without damage.

But just now, Leo felt that his earlier guess might be wrong, and the Knight King did not use the hibernation pod to prolong his life, but used other methods to become an evil god.

This is not only the influence of the evil god who appeared just now, but also from all the information he can find related to the Knight King, it is not difficult to see that the Knight King is an extremely proud person, and he disdains to receive handouts from others, which is why the Knight King would rather sign a contract with the Black Forest than become a Black Forest god like White Deer.

How could such a proud person be willing to lie in the dormant chamber and sleep unconsciously for hundreds of years, prolonging this meaningless lifespan, according to his character, he would definitely find another way to become an unrestrained god.

It was with this in mind that Sylvia felt that Leo's guess was not necessarily wrong.

In addition, the actions of Louis X and the previous French Emperor Philip III can also prove Leo's speculation that the knight king has become an evil god.

And if these suspicious people can really be convinced of the so-called method of becoming a god, then this method of becoming a god will definitely not come from all kinds of legends from the outside world, or those secret forces and churches, but only from the knight kings who are extremely respected by all the French royal families.

It's just that whether this guess is correct or not, whether the Fran royal family has really mastered a method of becoming a god, and whether the knight king has really become an evil god, these have little to do with them now in the eyes of Leo and Sylvia, and there is no need to care too much, not to mention that judging from all indications, the Fran Empire, or Winter Rin City, should be in trouble.

The inaudible, invisible, and unknowable are the iron laws that any mortal who tries to approach the gods must know, and mortals have no way to withstand the effects of looking directly at the gods, and the scene just now has undoubtedly been seen by all the people in Winter Rin City, so in the near future, Winter Rin City will definitely have a big mess because of this matter, such as a wave of mutation and the like.
