Chapter 491: Blind Spots
The dignified prince of the empire was beheaded in public...... His Majesty the Sun King is very bold."
Under the high platform.
In the midst of the surging crowd, a beautiful young woman sighed softly.
"Although the empire is strong, it still needs the support of the Church of the Seven Gods, especially in these turbulent times...... If the Sun King didn't have such courage, how could he end the war and unify the continent? Even now, the situation is not as stable as it was at the beginning of the Solar Age, but for more than 4,000 years, Trasur has been the recognized hegemon, and this shows a lot of things......
Beside her, another silver-robed adult said lightly. It's just that under this bright sky, its face is always hidden by a hazy star mist, and it is not real.
"Andreus the Great is a great man of his own power, but he was able to dominate the Fifth Age not entirely by force, at least as far as I can remember, he has hardly personally fought since the establishment of the Empire...... After all, in this world, even the true God cannot rule with extreme violence."
"I see, Mother......
The young woman bowed her head thoughtfully.
"Dazlet's actions seem to have led to an intensification of conflict within the Empire, and he has to become a victim of maintaining order...... But mother, doesn't His Majesty the Sun King have even the slightest love for him? There is only one prince in the Sun Royal Family, and now that he has been executed, only Princess Anna remains."
"I'm sorry Rosa, I don't know, maybe the farther you go in the path of God, the more human nature will transform into divinity...... Divinity is the cornerstone of supreme power, but at the cost of gradually abandoning the emotions that come with human beings, including love."
Blaise shook his head slightly.
Rosa was slightly stunned, and then worried:
"Mother, you're about to be promoted to Sequence 3, aren't you? Will it be ...... in the future?"
Blaise smiled and raised his hand to brush his daughter's hair.
"Don't worry about Rosa, even if I get promoted, I'll be able to keep the status quo...... It is only when you reach the angelic steps that a drastic change occurs, but that step is too difficult, far more difficult than the ritual of the Sage, and for me, it is still far away."
Rosa nodded and smiled in response to her mother.
Beside the mother and daughter, there was also a gentleman in black hat, who had been staring at the high platform with a silver cane, and had not participated in the conversation between the two from beginning to end.
He frowned slightly, looked beyond the high platform, and looked up at the sun.
With Prince Dazlet beheaded for public display, Chen Lun always felt that something was wrong in his heart, and as for what was wrong, he couldn't say.
The feeling was subtle, but he trusted his own judgment.
It's like a dazzling light in front of you, but it always leaves a black spot in the blind spot and becomes a neglected place...... It's not that the light is too intense, it's that human vision is weak and there is a huge flaw. ,
Chen Lun thought about it for a while, and then secretly used divination.
With a flick of his right hand, the silver cane clattered, and he stood in place and spun in place.
At the same time, meditate in your heart:
'Dazlet Trisur has been confirmed dead?' ,
Syllable.
The cane stops, and the crank points straight ahead, indicating affirmation.
'Really dead......
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows, he did not doubt the result of the divination, after all, this was a divination ritual carried out with the blessing of the "Mandate of Heaven", and its weight was so high that it probably far exceeded the high positions of the same rank, and the accuracy was self-evident.
But he didn't expect that the prince was really dead.
Originally, he was still speculating whether this would be a fake death, but the Sun King broke the persecution of the Church of the Seven by making Dazlet confess his guilt and pretend to compromise, and then resurrected him privately by some means.
But this is clearly not the case now.
Perhaps, as His Majesty Blaise said, all this is just because the Sun King is bold enough, and he will not hesitate to sacrifice even the only prince to maintain the stability of the empire. ,
Chen Lun took a deep breath.
But he was suddenly stunned.
The characteristics of the "Man of Destiny" made him faintly see the information that was ignored in the "blind spot".
'The only prince? It shouldn't be like this......
Chen Lun turned his head, kept his tone steady, and asked the Silver Dragon Witch in a deep voice:
"Isn't it strange that His Majesty the Sun King has ruled the empire for more than 4,000 years, but the royal family has only three heirs, and two of them are ordinary people?"
"Strange?"
Blaise looked at Chen Lun, but shook his head slightly.
"It's not surprising that the Sun King is at the angelic level, and his lifespan is almost infinite...... When the power is condensed and can exist for a long time, the crown prince has no meaning...... 'The birth of the sun is only an exception, at the beginning of the solar age, he was born with the power of mythology, he is a saint, obviously the blood contains the great power and expectations of Andrew, but unfortunately in the end he was banished into darkness by His Majesty because of his conflicting beliefs."
The Silver Dragon Witch paused for a moment and looked in the direction of the high platform.
"As for Duzlet and Anna, they are just ordinary people, which means that the power of the Sun King is not contained in their blood...... Your Majesty may have done it haphazardly, simply creating two offspring for fun, and after a hundred years, when the prince and princess die of old age, a new crown prince will be born."
Chen Lun frowned after listening to Blaise's words.
According to the rules of the mysterious realm, the higher the power, the stronger the divinity, and the Sun King is indifferent, and it is understandable that he doesn't care about his heirs, but he still has some doubts.
After a few seconds of silence, Chen Lun continued to ask:
"Your Majesty Blaize, if that's the case, then what about before? From the establishment of the Trisur Empire to the birth of Duzlet and Anna more than twenty years ago, has the Sun Royal Family never had any other crown prince except for the 'Blazing Sun'?"
"Of course, before...... Huh?"
Blaise bowed his head, but as soon as he spoke, he suddenly stopped, and made a puzzled sound, showing a little confusion.
"I can't remember...... My memory of whether there was a crown prince or not before the Sun Royal Family is a little vague."
Chen Lun's face suddenly became solemn.
That's what he always felt was wrong!
In the four thousand years of the empire, there was only one 23-year-old prince and a 20-year-old princess, and they were all ordinary people, which is a bit strange to look at...... But apart from himself, no one else or even the people of the empire noticed the slightest abnormality, and even Blaise, who was the Sage of the Stars, seemed to have been affected in some way, and he couldn't remember the past about this matter.
Chen Lun faintly felt that behind this incident, there must be a big secret, otherwise there was no need to hide so many people.
And if you want to do this, I'm afraid that the person who shot it is at least a god-level angel!
"Jack, I advise you not to be too curious about this matter, and not to probe into it......
After some memories and thoughts, the silver dragon witch Blaise said in a deep voice. The star mist on his face slowly drifted away, revealing a solemn and serious expression.
"Even I have been affected unconsciously, and there must be a terrible truth behind this incident...... Perhaps only the higher order beings are aware of all this, but they are unanimously silent, most likely for some special reason......
"I know, Blaise Crown."
Chen Lun took a deep breath and nodded at it.

The three of them quietly left the Fire Emblem Square, rode in a carriage, and headed towards the generous church district.
The royal family did not dare to disobey the will of the Sun King, and Noah was released from the dungeon yesterday, but he was in extremely poor physical condition at that time, like a candle in the wind, and his appearance was also very miserable, and he was almost tortured to the point of being inhuman.
Fortunately, those negative states on him were cleared, and Chen Lun used the [Shocking] bookmark to instill vitality in him for the first time...... But I don't know if it was the torture during this period of time that caused Noah's upper health to temporarily drop by 60%.
In desperation, Chen Lun had no choice but to let Maggie take him back to the church area to recuperate and carry out targeted rehabilitation treatment.
The carriage drove straight into the arch of the church district and stopped along the garden path to the residential apartments.
Afterwards, the three of them got out of the carriage, and Chen Lun invited His Majesty Blaise and Rosa in as guests.
"Mr. Jack!"
Noah, dressed in loose white home clothes, waited in the living room early, and when he saw the three of them coming, he hurriedly got up and stepped forward.
"Mother, and sister."
With a smile on his face, he greeted the trio.
"How's your body?"
Chen Lun asked with concern.
"Miss Maggie has already treated me, and although the potion doesn't taste very good, the effect is amazing! I feel like I'm pretty much back now! Thank you for saving me, Mr. Jack......
Noah said, his face full of gratitude.
Chen Lun shook his head and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't thank me, Noah, but His Majesty Blaise personally went to ask His Majesty King Shuoli for help for you......
Noah suddenly looked at his mother and sister with a guilty expression.
"I'm sorry, Mother, sister, but it was my recklessness that worried you."
"As long as you're safe, Noah."
Blaise said softly, stroking his head gently.
Rosa's eyes were red on the side, as if she thought of her brother's appearance when he had just come out of the dungeon, and her heart ached. She slapped Noah's arm hard and whispered something, but Noah just lowered his head and didn't dare to refute.
When Chen Lun saw this scene, he turned around and left with a smile.
It's a blessing in disguise...... Noah actually completed the promotion ceremony in the dungeon and became the [Sequence 5 - Bone Husband]. ,
He thought to himself and walked to the room on the other side of the living room, where the rest of the team were waiting. Before entering, the powerful perception had already heard the heated discussion inside......
"That silver-robed lady outside is really a high-ranking person?!"
"Of course...... Anton could smell a strong threat from him, and if Anton couldn't beat him, he would be killed!"
"A powerful human indeed, Meow, even the most powerful warrior of the Black Cat Clan will probably be defeated at his hands......
"Noah's mother turned out to be a sage?!"
"But didn't you find out? Mr. Jack has also changed a lot, I originally thought he was unfathomable, but when I saw him again yesterday, I didn't feel his presence at all, and when I looked closely, I even couldn't help but tremble...... You say, Mr. Jack, he'...... Could he also be crowned by the Holy One?"
Creak.
Chen Lun pushed open the door, and the discussion inside came to an abrupt end.
"Mr. Jack."
Everyone turned their heads to look at each other with respect and inquiry on their faces.
Chen Lun smiled, and first said to Floy, who was sitting quietly on the sofa:
"Floy, excuse me, there are two more guests at today's dinner."
"Well, leave it to me."
Floy smiled and nodded, and slowly stood up.
Immediately, Chen Lun slowly looked at the cadres and said softly:
"You've guessed right, I've been promoted to a high position."
「……」
Everyone was stunned at first.
The scene remained dead silent.
Immediately, everyone's face bloomed with shock and joy.
"Mr. Jack?!"
"Our head is also a high-ranking saint!"
Antonio walked to Chen Lun's side in small steps, sniffed like a dog, and then his eyes widened and he hummed happily.
"Powerful breath! Anton is so happy for you!"
