Chapter 183: Amon? (2-in-1, supplemental)
"Big brother, why would the fourth prince want Freya to be Amon instead of Asmodeus?"
At Kensington Palace, Ma Wei and the others sat in the living room, discussing what had just happened.
Amon is the same as Asmodeus, he is the Great Demon of the Supreme Four Pillars, and in the attack on Eucalyptus a few days ago, Amon was responsible for dragging the goddess of health, Wilder, while Asmodeus led the other two Supreme Four Pillars to attack Clarence Palace.
That night, Arthur, the fourth prince, was in the royal palace, and he saw Amun, but not Asmodeus.
Mavi thinks that Asmodeus is Freya, but the fourth prince wants Freya to be Amon, which makes Mavi a little incomprehensible and can't figure out what the fourth prince is thinking.
"Could the fourth prince already know Amon's identity?" Daniel suddenly said: "If the fourth prince knows Amon's true identity, for example, Amon disguised himself as someone close to him, and the fourth prince doesn't want to admit it, it seems that it can be explained." ”
Daniel's speculation is not unreasonable, and it should be said that it is a wake-up call for Mavi.
Arthur behaved strangely tonight, absent-minded when talking, and he had never been like this before, which could make him distracted....
Who will it be?
Who could it be?
After thinking about it, many figures appeared in Ma Wei's mind - the Knights of the Round Table!
I am afraid that the only people who can make Arthur pay so much attention are the members of the Knights of the Round Table.
As far as Ma Wei knows, there are not many Knights of the Round Table currently active in London, no more than 5 of them, and the other members are still in the territory of the West Island and did not follow Arthur to London.
There is no need for the help of the Knights of the Round Table at the moment, Arthur can handle it himself.
"It can't be Gawain." The communication speculated: "As soon as he came to London, there was an attack on the Supreme Four Pillars, not to mention that the goal of the Supreme Four Pillars was to kill the eldest prince Charles, and Gawain happened to have a grudge against the eldest prince!" ”
"How can the Supreme Four Pillars be dispatched at the same time because of personal grievances?"
Shaking his head, Ma Wei retorted: "If Amon's true identity is Gawain, then it can completely kill the eldest prince quietly, instead of releasing a warning letter with great fanfare..... The attack on Clarence Palace that night was a premeditated operation and had nothing to do with personal vendettas. ”
Gawain, who has a grudge against the eldest prince, is certainly suspicious, but it can indeed attract Arthur's attention, after all, Gawain is the third Knight of the Round Table to follow him, and he is a veteran, and if Gawain betrays Arthur, it will definitely make Arthur feel painful.
"I think the crux of the matter is how the fourth prince found out about Amun's identity." Edward said: "Counting the incident of the attack on St. Paul's Cathedral a few days ago, Amon shot at most twice, that is, the fourth prince wanted to determine Amon's identity, and he could only use these two opportunities. ”
"Amon's first shot was to attack Buckingham Palace, when only the four princes, Pope Ubley I, Archbishop of Liviu and Wild, the goddess of health, were present, after the crisis was resolved, the four princes ran home as soon as possible, at that time we couldn't understand why he was in a hurry to go home, now it seems...."
Ma Wei's eyes lit up: "That's right! How did I forget about it! ”
On the night of Amon's attack on Buckingham Palace, Ma Wei, who was going to return to Flower Street in a carriage, witnessed the four princes running towards their home....
Why is Arthur in a hurry to get home?
He must have found the clue in Amun!
Gawain, who lent his identity to Mavi, did not live in Arthur's house, but rented an apartment by himself, putting aside his possibility, and stayed at home as a Knight of the Round Table....
It seems that there is only one left.
"Could it be Gulhana?!" The incoming's cheeks twitched, and the hand holding the silver flask trembled: "No.... It can't be her.... She's married to the Fourth Prince, if she's the Supreme Four Pillars..."
Arthur had already married Gulhanna, and as a witness to their marriage, Ma Wei even read the marriage vows for them.
It is precisely because of this important relationship that neither Ma Wei nor the source paid attention to Gulhana, and subconsciously ignored her, perhaps everyone guessed the possibility that Gulhana was Amon, but....
Reluctant to admit it.
"No, no...."Ma Wei frowned, and said with a serious expression: "Gulhanna is the first Knight of the Round Table to follow Arthur, codenamed Lancelot, and when Arthur left London for New Ross City more than ten years ago, Gulhanna was by his side. ”
"If Gulhana is the Amun of the Supreme Four Pillars, doesn't it mean that the power of the ancient gods came to the world more than ten years ago?"
"Baji said that after the Demon Gate was closed, the ancient gods could not break free from the seal, unless the seal was loosened, they could cause interference to the world, the date of the arrival of the gods was a year and a half ago, how could Amon have lurked by Arthur's side more than ten years ago?"
Acknowledging that Gulhana is Amon means that his previous conjecture has been greatly deviated, and it is very likely that ....
The time when the seal was loosened was not a year and a half ago, but more than a decade ago or even earlier!
If the seal had been loosened more than a decade ago, why didn't the gods come earlier, but a year and a half ago?
"Maybe the old gods used some method to send Amon out of the demon gate in advance." Edward speculated, "After so many eras, it's not surprising that the Old Gods were able to find the flaws in the Demon Gate, do you remember the gems on both sides of the Demon Gate that were used to seal the transcendent creatures?" Of the seventy-two pillar demon gods, a small half is gone, and they may have awakened a long time ago. ”
"If the ancient gods found a flaw in the seal, then why didn't the demon gods who woke up more than ten years ago directly attack humans?" Daniel wondered, "With their strength, humans are no match at all!" ”
On the premise of assuming that a demon came more than ten years ago, Ma Wei could only come up with three possibilities for Daniel's question:
1. Demons who wake up in advance do not dare to use power, because using power will shake the seal and make the gods descend in advance.
2. Demons that wake up early have no power, they only wake up in consciousness or body, and they do not have magical power.
3. The reason why they don't attack humans is because they have deeper plans, taking advantage of the time difference between waking up in advance, lurking in the camp of humans and secretly waiting for the opportunity.
"Almost two years ago, Freya's husband, Duke Andris, fell unexpectedly, and from the perspective of time, it is the right time for the gods to come." Ma Wei groaned, "As of now, it is only Gulhana who has the problem. ”
"Big brother, is it possible that the Supreme Four Pillars did not wake up more than ten years ago, but a year and a half ago, together with the gods?" A possibility came to mind: "With the great power they wield, it should not be difficult to occupy the human body." ”
"If that's the case, it's a lot simpler."
Ma Wei took a deep breath: "At least we can be sure that the ancient gods did not find a flaw in the Demon Gate, but this kind of thing of occupying the body, in the eyes of acquaintances, it is easy to reveal the flaw, such as Gulihana, her father is Arthur's court swordsmanship teacher, and she has been by Arthur's side since she was a child, and even the slightest abnormality in her appearance will attract Arthur's attention.... I don't think that the demon who occupies Gulhanna's body can fool Arthur, who gets along with Gulhana day and night. ”
The fourth prince Arthur is a smart man, he is extremely smart, ambitious and wise far beyond ordinary people, this is the evaluation given by Ma Wei after contacting him.
How could such an ambitious and wise man not see through the devil's disguise?
It's like if a demon has taken possession of the communication's body, can it behave exactly like the communication?
】
In this regard, Mavi thinks he has a bit of a say.
He fused the memories and experiences of the original body, and after the fusion of the two souls, his personality also underwent subtle changes, and many times, his style of acting was as ruthless and unscrupulous as the original body.
These are all experiences spelled out in blood and water, and they have been deeply engraved in his bones.
Ma Wei can be sure that he is not his previous life, nor the former lieutenant of the Navy, but the new Ma Wei Enders.
"The suspects now are Freya and Gulhana." Ma Wei did not insist on the identity of the four pillars, and said cautiously: "If our inference is correct, then two of the four pillars have revealed their identities, which is a good sign." ”
"Good signs?" The source took a sip of wine and said depressedly: "What a good sign is this! Gulhana turned out to be Amun, the supreme four-pillared Amon.... She knows the identity of the Knight of the Round Table, and she also knows many of our secrets, and it is too easy for the ancient god forces to deal with us! ”
"Our real backer is the Church of Truth, not the fourth prince Arthur, nor the Knights of the Round Table." Ma Wei said: "As long as there are no problems with the Church of Truth, the Four Pillars of Supremacy will not be able to stir up too many waves. ”
Now Ma Wei's biggest concern is Arthur's safety.
He shared the same bed with the Great Demon of the Supreme Four Pillars, and it would be a lie to say that there was no danger at all, and if he knew this, it would be better for Arthur to marry the Holy Maiden Yin Fulin!
At least the Holy Maiden Yin Frin is a follower of the goddess of health, Wild, no matter what, it is much stronger than Amun, who is the supreme four pillars.
There is no point in cooking raw rice and dwelling on the original decision, and the top priority is to guard against the danger that may come at any time.
After thinking about it, Ma Wei felt that it was safer to hand over the living spirit statue of the blood clan to Arthur, and in case of crisis, the living spirit statue could at least resist for a while.
After all, Gulhanna's identity has not yet been determined, and it would be bad if it was mistaken, so first determining Arthur's safety and then slowly investigating Gulhana is definitely the best solution at the moment.
"Felix, give this statue to Arthur and let him use it properly." Ma Wei took out the black statue in his arms and handed it to the communication.
"Got it."
"Also, after delivering the statue, remember to go to the factory in the Havefling district, find the person in charge, Steven Thomas, and ask him to deliver 100 pounds of sleeping toast to Kensington Palace."
"100 pounds?" The source was stunned for a moment: "I'm afraid the second prince won't hold a banquet recently, is it too much to ask for 100 pounds of toast?" ”
The second prince, who has not come back until now, is likely to be severely punished by King Rhodes IV, after this incident, the second prince does not want to hold a banquet for at least half a month, without his invitation, there will not be too many nobles to come to the door, and it will naturally be wasted to prepare too much sleeping toast.
"These toasts are not for the second prince." Ma Wei said: "I'll know when you come back, let's go do things first." ”
"Okay."
Finding an excuse to go out, the communication mobilized the Heart of the Jungle in a hidden alley, went to the Havefling district, and told Jacob of Mavi's request.
Jacob moves quickly, the important potion in the toast recipe Asanti is ready-made, he only needs to evenly blend the diluted potion into the toast embryo, there is a bakery in the factory that specializes in baking toast, and the sleeping toast is now the best-selling product of the Manstein Potions Company, for this reason, Jacob set up a separate bakery to make a large amount of toast.
Towards the end of the evening, 100 pounds of sleeping toast was escorted by several gang members to the city of Westminster, and after being inspected by the witchers, it passed smoothly and was sent to Kensington Palace.
The gang members who are responsible for escorting the Sleeping Toast are from the Kore Gang, and they are currently responsible for the security of the factory, and 100 pounds of Sleeping Toast is not a small amount, and Jacob specially asked them to help deliver it so that there would be no problems on the road.
"Felix, you brought 50 pounds of Sleeping Toast to the eldest prince, and said that I asked you to go, and asked him to help promote Sleeping Toast."
"Huh? Can the eldest prince agree? Sleeping toast is one of the main products of the Manstein Potions Company, if he helps to promote, isn't it helping the second prince in disguise? ”
"He'll agree." Ma Wei smiled: "In normal times, he may not agree, but don't forget, at this time, the eldest prince is estimated to have received the gossip that the church has placed an order for the Manstein Potions Company, if nothing else, he should take this opportunity to personally or send Helena to find out the news from you, if he asks, he doesn't have to hide it, he can say whatever he wants." ”
The source vaguely guessed what Ma Wei wanted to do: "Big brother, do you want to..."
"Well, Jonas, you also take 50 pounds of Sleeping Toast and go door-to-door to visit your classmates and treat them to a taste of Sleeping Toast in the name of Manstein's Potions Company."
Daniel nodded, "Got it." ”
"Dad, didn't Archbishop Brandon send someone to buy you sleeping toast at noon?" Yunia looked at Mavi and said, "You gave away all the toast, what should I do with Archbishop Brandon?" ”
"It's very simple, tell him that there was a problem with the potion scheduling, and that the toast that originally belonged to him was accidentally taken by Felix to the Grand Prince's Clarence Palace." Ma Wei said in a calm voice: "In this way, Archbishop Brandon, who is addicted to sleeping toast, will inevitably be tempted to run to the eldest prince's house, and at that time.... He might hear something he shouldn't have heard. ”
"What if Archbishop Brandon doesn't go to the Grand Prince's house himself, but sends someone to fetch the sleeping toast?"
"Archbishop Brandon should be the first person to be addicted to lethargic toast, the grocery store is closed, his toast at home was eaten yesterday, and now he is already impatient, when he can't hold it back, let's send someone to inform him, in a hurry.... He will definitely rush to Clarence Palace in person. ”
