7pm, West London, Yin Ling District.

In the brightly lit study, a bony hand holds a glass bottle, aiming at the bright gas chandelier overhead, observing the viscous red liquid in the bottle.

"It's a high-grade potion, it's as magnificent as a gem..."

The owner of the palm was a young man who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, without too many bells and whistles on his body, and did not wear a family crest, but his body exuded an aura of being in a high position all year round.

After staring at the glass bottle for a long time, the young man turned his head to look at the floor-to-ceiling window, lifted the curtain with one hand, observed the back of the courtyard gate, and asked aloud: "Father-in-law, can we really trust Mr. Nicholas?" ”

"Your Highness, I have already sent someone to the Kingdom of Frederick to investigate the details of the Manstein family, and I will get accurate information in less than a month."

Observing the back of the courtyard gate, he turned around and it was Baron Frederick, who said in a deep voice: "It's just safe to investigate the Manstein family, I don't think that Mr. Nicholas will do anything in this matter, unless they are spies sent by the Cult of the Ruling God..."

"I'm just worried about that." The young man bowed his head and said: "The Cult of the Ruling God and the Church of the Goddess of Destiny, although they both belong to the Apocalypse Divine System, but between each other, it is no longer the alliance of two thousand years ago, the God of the Apocalypse Neilei Yinda has not descended so far, and the whereabouts of the key are unknown, at this juncture, I must not make a mistake." ”

"Not only can't you make mistakes, but you have to work your way up!" Baron Frederick said in a firm tone: "Your Highness, the Archbishop of Ublis behind your brother won the election ceremony half a year ago and became the new pope, and many officials have fallen to the eldest prince, we have been hit a lot, only by taking the initiative can we win a glimmer of life!" ”

After a pause, Baron Frederick added, "As for whether Mr. Nicholas is a spy sent by the Cult of the Gods.... I have a way to detect this. ”

"How?"

"Those who are steadfast in their faith can be blessed by the gods, as long as we let Archbishop Brandon test Mr. Nicholas, won't we know if he is a spy sent by the Cult of the Ruling God?"

Archbishop Brandon believes in Nanelde, the goddess of wealth, who lost in the pope race half a year ago and supported the second prince Shukri, in fact, he lost unjustly, and the goddess of health, Wild, has the most believers and the highest prestige.

"What if the God of Judgment doesn't bless Mr. Nicholas?" The young man asked, "The gods don't have to share their power with the believers. ”

"Your Highness, believers who have already contributed to the gods are not the same as ordinary people who have not contributed." Baron Frederick said: "Their souls are different in color, Archbishop Brandon has a way to test it, Archbishop Brandon told us about this before, didn't you listen carefully?" ”

“.... I must have been thinking about something else. ”

"It's okay, now you know." Baron Frederick nodded slightly, without blaming the young man, and appeared patient: "As long as it is confirmed that Mr. Nicholas has not contributed to the gods, then we can spare no effort to win him over!" ”

What if he was indeed a believer in other churches, but didn't contribute to the gods? Won't the test fail? ”

The young man thought of another possibility.

His mind has always been active.

"Your Highness, any believer who is loyal to the gods must provide the power of faith to the gods, which is an active contribution and cannot be changed." Baron Frederick said earnestly: "If Mr. Nicholas had not contributed to the gods, there were only two possibilities. ”

"1. He did not believe in that god, but only joined the church, nominally a believer, but in his heart he did not approve of the god's teachings."

"Second, he didn't join any church, so naturally he couldn't contribute."

"No matter which possibility it is, it gives us the opportunity to win him over, he is a businessman, it is the nature of businessmen to pursue profits, and behind us is Nanelde, the goddess of wealth, which businessman would hate wealth?"

A confident smile appeared on Baron Frederick's face: "I believe that as long as Mr. Nicholas passes the test, with the power of Nande, the goddess of wealth, he will definitely be able to pull him into our camp!" ”

"That would be great." The young man played with the glass bottle and said with a smile: "Mr. Nicholas can make high-grade potions, as long as he helps, Archbishop Brandon can increase his influence and prestige in the church, so that I also have the confidence to compete for the throne..."

It's one thing to have resources in your hands, it's another thing to swap resources for profits.

Production is important, but distribution is also essential.

Why should someone buy the same product from you?

It depends on the means of the dealer....

The young man, Baron Frederick, was not only interested in Ma Wei's ability to make high-grade potions, but also the huge distribution network behind him!

"Stuart has been out for three hours, why hasn't he found Mr. Nicholas yet?" The young man looked at the wall clock and wondered.

"I've been sending people to follow Mr. Nicholas and them, and they've been to a lot of places today, and they're supposed to rent a shop.... Don't worry, Your Highness, Stull will bring him back. ”

"I really can't wait to meet him." The young man laughed: "This is the best news I have heard in recent times, Nicholas von Manstein.... It's a really good name, much better than Arthur. ”

Arthur....

Hearing this name, Baron Frederick's eyes darkened, and a figure appeared in his mind, the other party had long golden hair, light green eyes, and a bewitching and handsome face, inheriting all the advantages of his mother, wearing a solemn black suit, always remembering his dead mother.

Kingdom of Windsor, Four Princes, Arthur Windsor!

A prince who was expelled from the royal capital and returned to London with his own unique vision and efforts.

The fourth prince, Arthur, showed amazing wisdom since he was a child, crushing his three brothers in all aspects, King Rhodes IV loved his mother very much, and there were constant rumors that Rhodes IV was going to pass the throne to Arthur instead of the first crown prince....

Perhaps, it was because Arthur's dazzling light attracted the disaster of death.

"Your Highness, there is one thing I hope you can answer truthfully."

"What's the matter?"

Baron Frederick hesitated for a few seconds, gritted his teeth and asked, "Did you send the murderer who killed Princess Sophia in the first place?" ”

“.......”

The young man didn't seem to expect Baron Frederick to suddenly ask about it, he thought for a moment and said, "It's not me. ”

"Really, not?" Baron Frederick said quickly, "If you did it, it's fine, but I want you to tell me the truth, so that we can make a plan against the fourth prince Arthur!" He's here for revenge! ”

"It's really not me..."The young man rubbed his eyebrows and said with a headache: "I was only 15 years old when Princess Sophia was assassinated!" Father-in-law, I just hated Arthur's younger brother at that time, but I really didn't want to kill his mother! ”

"No, it's fine, it's okay if it's not." Baron Frederick breathed a sigh of relief: "The fourth prince Arthur is a smart man, he is very cunning, he looks harmless to humans and animals on the surface, and he is quite liked by ladies, but I can see the anger hidden in his eyes, it is the flame of revenge, he is like a dead soul who has returned from New Ross City, and wants to seek revenge on all of us..."

The young man shook his head and said: "I don't think so, Arthur is an ambitious man, many years have passed since that incident, he returned to the royal capital, it can't be for revenge, I think he will compete with us for the throne, the throne is the most important thing, right?" ”

"Maybe, but we must beware of him, if the murderer of his mother was sent by Your Highness, we must cut the grass and eradicate the roots, if not, then we must monitor him and wait for the opportunity."

"yes.... Wait for your chance. The young man put his legs on the table, took out a cigar and lit it: "Anyway, Arthur is also my father's son, my half-brother, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince of the Kingdom of Windsor, killing him is a felony, if the eldest prince and the third prince are afraid of his revenge, he can't hold back his shot, and we will seize the evidence..... Scold. ”

"That's it, the fourth prince Arthur shouldn't have returned to London alive, but it was only because the murderer was afraid of other eyes in the dark and didn't dare to make a rash move, so that Arthur had a chance to seize power."

Baron Frederick walked to the window, looked at a carriage slowly approaching the courtyard, and said with a deep gaze:

"His Majesty's health is not as good as day by day, and no one dares to make mistakes in sensitive times, we must seize the opportunity to fight for our hope of success!"
