Chapter 448: Plan Ahead
readx;?“ How did these Assassins get in?" Alexander's heart moved slightly, and he asked in a deep voice to Gago, the leader of the Forbidden Army, who had been standing in the audience, "You go and get the registration documents for the entry and exit of the people in the back garden!"
The signed document was quickly submitted, and there should be no outsiders except for He Jinshui and his party, Master Gangze, and the important civil and military ministers who had been ordered to come; Alexander looked through the duty records of the guards, and the guards on duty in the last three rounds were all old men in the palace, including Sharon and the dead guards.

Thinking of the cold look and red eyes of Sharon and the others when they assassinated him, Alexander's heart was very uncomfortable, this kid's father and grandfather were palace guards, and he watched him grow up, and he had already regarded him as half a nephew in his heart, so he was bitter about Sharon's betrayal.
Alexander sighed and ordered his subordinates to temporarily detain Joaquin, Sharon and the families of the guards involved in the case for review, and Gago was about to go down to make arrangements, He Jinshui suddenly clenched his fists and said: "Back to the old man, the villain has something to say!"
"Oh, Marquis Yongwu, please speak!" the old man said absentmindedly with a wave of his hand.
"With all due respect, I think Joaquin, Sharon and others have nothing to do with this case, they were just implicated as substitutes, and they were actually wronged!"
"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Alexander's heart was shocked, and he quickly waved his hand at Gago, telling him to wait a moment.
"When I fought Joaquin before, I felt that his body was cold, his muscles were stiff, he didn't look like a normal living person, and he had that cup of poisonous tea, so I thought he was dead when I fought me. Again, I think the same is true of the squire and the saloon. ”
"That's right!" Alexander nodded, feeling that there was some truth.
"The old man seconded it!" Antonio also clenched his fists and bowed and said: "Among today's assassins, the old man happens to know the Netherworld Assassin Modric, and knows that he acts strangely, is good at assassination, and is good at everything, especially good at using poison, so the old man boldly guesses that these people have been assassinated by him with poison before the attack, and they are actually wronged." ”
"But how can a dead man speak, how can he fight with a man?" said the Imperial Prime Minister Silva, who was just an ordinary person who did not understand martial arts and magic, so his face was unbelievable.
"Your Excellency, you don't know that there are many strange spells and evil forces in this world that can manipulate the dead for their own use. Today, these people first attacked us in a frenzy, and then inexplicably blew themselves up one after another, obviously after the enemy assassinated them, and then used the trick of manipulating the dead to control their bodies to achieve their goals, it is really murderous!" He Jinshui said through gritted teeth.
"Yong Wuhou's judgment is very accurate!" Antonio glanced at He Jinshui in surprise, and couldn't help but stretch out his thumb and exclaim: "The old man just sold a pass, and you broke it with one word, the kid's insight is good!"
He stroked his beard and continued, "In addition to that Nether Assassin, there are two powerful characters involved in the assassination process today. One is Quasimodo, a soul seeker, who specializes in evil magic and manipulates necromancy, and the other is Courtois, a soul seeker, who specializes in illusion and hypnosis. Today's assassination was apparently arranged by their mastery. ”
"Nether Assassin Modric, Soul Seeker Quasimodo, Evil Soul Master Courtois. Alexander pondered these unfamiliar names silently, frowned and thought for a moment, and then asked to the left and right, "Have you heard of these names?"
The military bosses, the important ministers of the DPRK and the guards of the forbidden army in the palace shook their heads one after another to say that they didn't know, He Jinshui and Gangze glanced at each other, and they also had a wry smile on their faces.
"In today's assassination, the Nether Assassin's moves are ruthless, the Soul Seeker can control multiple people to explode violently from a distance, and the misty illusion arranged by the Evil Soul Master has trapped so many palace forbidden soldiers and mages, these people are good at assassination, and the means are so good, it stands to reason that they should have been famous all over the world for a long time, but for some reason they are still unknown until now?"
"Your Majesty, let me tell you!" Antonio said with a light cough and seriousness, "As you said, these people have indeed been famous all over the world for a long time, but not now, but a thousand years ago!"
"Shhh
"Does the national teacher mean that these people are all remnants of the demon god, and now they are ready to move again?" Alexander's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he asked in a deep voice.
"Exactly!" Antonio looked up at the ceiling with his hands behind his back, and after a long silence, he continued, "They are all members of the 'Purgatory' team, an elite unit under the command of the Demon God, and they have always been infamous because of their secret whereabouts, their unsightly deeds, and their constant hiding behind the scenes. This team is responsible for espionage work, and all the members are unruly and eccentric, especially good at concealing assassinations, probing intelligence, and tracking thousands of miles, and these three people are the main members of it. ”
"Purgatory Squad, it's them!" Mage Gangze and Court Chief Mage Renaud glanced at each other, and they could both see a hint of shock in each other's eyes. In addition to their profound knowledge of magic, they also have a lot of knowledge of historical classics, so they naturally know this terrifying name thousands of years ago.
"Master Gangze, have you heard of that name?" Alexander asked with interest, raising an eyebrow.
"Returning to Your Majesty!" Gang Ze replied one by one: "Although this purgatory squad did not write much in the Second Demon Sealing War, it acted extremely bitter and vicious, and repeatedly successfully assassinated the generals of the Terran Alliance at that time, and also fought with the Seven Samurai many times, which caused a great obstacle to their resistance actions!"
"Grandma is a bear, it turns out that she actually picked up a life today!" The civil and military ministers were terrified when they heard this, and they looked at each other without speaking, and their faces became more and more solemn.
"Later, the human emperor king Da Lei beheaded the demon god in the Plain of Despair, this team full of legends still did not ambush him, but disappeared into the long river of history with the escaped mysterious lich, demon marshal and others, and I didn't expect to see the light of day again today. Gang Ze sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that it will be dangerous in the future, you adults should be more careful!"
The hearts of the people were awe-inspiring, and they became more and more nervous. Seeing that everyone's morale was low, Antonio coughed, and comforted with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, although the Purgatory Squad is mysterious and powerful, they also lost a lot of people under our joint encirclement and suppression, and now there are probably no more than 10 surviving masters, everyone pay more attention and try not to act alone at night." In addition, most of them have werewolf or vampire blood, and they have strong regeneration and recovery abilities, so be sure to decapitate their heads as soon as possible after the fight, and always have exorcism items such as silverware, mercury, and temple holy water. ”
Everyone nodded solemnly, and the uneasiness on their faces still did not disappear. Alexander felt a little unhappy in his heart, if it weren't for his years of self-cultivation, he would probably have to slap the table and scold people immediately.
Seeing the old man's gritted teeth, Master Gangze guessed his thoughts, so he quickly clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, then changed the topic and said, "So how did these assassins get into the palace today, and how to prevent them in the future?"
Everyone looked at Antonio, who stroked his beard, casually pointed at He Jinshui, and pretended to be unfathomable: "Ask him!"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him with burning eyes, He Jinshui was neither panicked nor surprised, just pondered for a moment and then arched his hand and said: "Since the old man can afford to be a villain, then I will deduce, if it is not right, everyone can add corrections at any time!"
He walked back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, and then thought and said, "If I remember correctly, Lord Sharon has been out of the palace today, and the guard who assassinated His Majesty before has also been out of the palace. ”
"Good observation, that's it. Alexander nodded and said, "Sharon left the palace because I sent him to tell Master Gangze that I was too busy to watch the play today, and that old man who had been guarding me for many years was naturally recognized, and when your friend left the palace with the dead superkiller girl in his arms, he led the way." ”
"That's right, that's right!" He Jinshui snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "The palace is heavily guarded, with three steps, one post, five steps and one whistle, although these assassins are powerful, they naturally can't break into the palace compound directly." So they waited outside the palace, trying to attack Sharon and the guards while they were out on business, and then the soul seeker Quasimodo took their bodies under control and came in to respond. ”
"What a powerful assassin!" Gang Ze said in disbelief, "I accompanied Sharon in with He Jinshui, so the other party was already dead before he saw us." From the time he left the palace gate until he saw me, it is estimated that he has not taken five hundred steps, and in such a short period of time, he still killed a martial artist in public, which is simply unimaginable!"
"Everything is done to the extreme, completely beyond imagination, so it is called the Nether Assassin!" Antonio said with a solemn face: "This guy has a sword that goes off the rails, and the flying sand and fallen leaves are all unusable, so it is very difficult to guard." In the few minutes that Sharon left the palace, he could quench poison with flying needles, spray poison at the upwind port, control poisonous insect bites, and even pretend to be an acquaintance to send his back to greet him, these methods were enough to assassinate Sharon many times. ”
"It's amazing!" everyone sighed.
"It's not over yet!" He Jinshui nodded, and Zhizhu said in his grip: "After they controlled the salon, they used his identity as the chief of the guard to arrange a suitable time to sneak into the palace quietly, and then the evil soul master Courtois took advantage of the fact that all the bigwigs entered the council hall and quietly arranged the mist array, and then they used the tea to kill Joaquin, and then controlled this corpse to challenge me!"
"They didn't expect to be able to kill you at all, but took advantage of this chaotic opportunity to prepare to assassinate me!" Alexander peeled off the cocoon, and then analyzed: "They have mastered Sharon's body and mind, and naturally know that there is a supreme master by my side, so they arranged for the guards to assassinate first, and when he was caught and let us secretly relax, they used Sharon's body to launch a real fatal blow!"
"What a heavy mind, such a ruthless method!" Alexander slapped heavily on the table, stood up and said with his hands behind his back: "Being targeted by these evil and terrifying guys, isn't it impossible to prevent it, the lives of the old man and the crown prince are in danger at any time, and I hope the national teacher will bother!"
"Your Majesty is polite!" Antonio said with an indifferent expression, "I have been waiting for Your Majesty's family for hundreds of years, and I should do my best to ensure your safety. Although the Purgatory Squad is vicious and difficult, it is by no means without countermeasures, otherwise they would have been able to assassinate the Human Emperor back then, how could they have allowed him to defeat the Demon God with his army. ”
"What's the best plan!" Alexander asked in a deep voice when he heard this.
"The secret of heaven must not be revealed, the old man has his own arrangements!" Antonio stroked his beard and did not say anything.
Alexander's heart was itching, and he wanted to ask a few questions, but when he saw the ministers with their heads buried in their ears, as if they were listening very seriously, and thinking that the enemy was ever-changing, and might even be hidden in it, he stopped talking to the court.
"Marshal Rommel, generals!" Alexander said in a deep voice.
"The last general!" replied the military bigwigs with their fists clenched.
"Now, do you still have any questions about the news that the Marquis of Yongwu brought back from Eastern Siberia?"
"It's true, I'm convinced!" everyone looked at each other, then said in unison. After a thrilling half a day, they were still a little dizzy as if in a dream, and they shuddered when they thought of the power of those assassins, and they nodded in unison in disbelief.
"Okay, for the early warning of the Marquis of Yongwu, the generals must take it to heart, and the headquarters and the general staff must plan carefully in advance, seriously think about a strategy for confrontation with the demon god, and then report it to me. ”
"Yes!"
"Invite the Creation Temple to work closely with each other, and add a demon hunting legion in addition to the standing army of the empire for the unique forces of the demon race, especially powerful troops such as the Demon Hunter Knights and the Magian Hunting Regiment, specifically to restrain the demon heresy!"
"Understood!"
"Silva, the Empire's internal affairs, finance and other departments must make concerted efforts to implement a special budget for army building, strengthen the preparation of war readiness materials, and do a good job of explaining the recent frequent supernatural and terrorist incidents, so as to reassure the people as much as possible. Try not to startle the snake, be sure to ensure that people's hearts are at peace, and once the battle of sealing the demons starts, we will fully mobilize and call on all the subjects of the empire to unite and fight against the enemies of mankind!"
"The old minister obeys!"
After Alexander's deployment, he still felt a little unfinished, frowned and tapped his fingers, and then continued: "According to the current army configuration, the four main armies of the empire are deployed on the northeast border to guard against demons, on the northwest border to guard against aliens, on the southwest border to guard against the Charman Empire, and in the center of the empire to defend the capital, although the number has reached 3 million, but due to the vast territory is too scattered, the deployment of troops is always a little stretched. Now that the demons are in danger, can we make some more adjustments and allocate more adequate personnel to the northeast border?" )
