Chapter 663: Civil War
For a moment, δ thought that the devil's conscience in front of him had found out and was going to tell Jasmine who was in the dark his true identity, but this unrealistic illusion was shattered in the next second - Song Lan made up another lie in front of everyone, with a blushing face and a heartbeat.
And what makes it even more desperate is that the simple and deceitful Jasmine once again believes in this devil full of lies.
I saw her sink her face and said seriously,
"I should have thought that MI7 was also mixed up here, so that the recruit named Mo Lian was your partner, right?" Jasmine's reasoning darkens δ's eyes.
obviously put on the appearance of a famous detective, but he was still played by the devil. This picture, it is really a little unbearable.
δ seemed to understand why it and Jasmine had traveled so many places, and had not met even one who would make a deal with it in exchange for Jasmine's life - who would hold a grudge against such a girl?
But it couldn't tell the devil what it was thinking, so it could only secretly make up its mind that when this matter was over, it would download an anti-fraud software on Jasmine's phone.
But at the same time, its understanding of the devil has changed slightly. Despite the devil's brutality, cunning, and cold-bloodedness, at least he was trustworthy, and in the time he had been bringing Jasmine back to the hospital, he had not done anything superfluous except to help them remove the mind-controlling order of the operating system.
However, δ thought about it, and suddenly felt that maybe it was just because the devil didn't look down on humans at all, and even the six-star rescuer who stood at the top of the human race would not be taken to heart by him.
The conversation between Song Lan and Jasmine continued,
"Yes, Merlene is also a very experienced agent, but during the time you were asleep, a lot of things happened outside, they found the bones of the previous rulers, and now Capello and the Munch family are unanimously pointing the finger at the Gilves family." Although they take Jasmine and Moonji away from the scene before the Consortium Knight arrives, the labyrinth beneath the wax museum is exposed to everyone's eyes.
The murder of the person in power of the consortium is an extremely serious crime, serious enough to immediately allow Richard Gilves to be interrogated as a suspect, and it just so happens that Richard's whereabouts are unknown at the moment, and according to the exploration of the scene, it was discovered that the person who caused extensive damage to the underground labyrinth was none other than the chief knight.
And Yueji is exactly equivalent to Richard's personal guard. Driven by Capello and the Munch family, Richard Gilves has been convicted of absconding in fear of crime, and he has been convicted of murdering his own uncle in order to consolidate power.
The most critical of these are...... This accusation really did not wronged him. The previous ruler of the consortium was Richard, and for this reason, he also bribed the dead soldiers who were loyal to him, causing an accident.
But in fact his uncle has been imprisoned in his own hands to build
In the "Underground Palace", along with the dreams of his behind-the-scenes ruler, he decays and crumbles in a dungeon that no one knows, and in the end, only a weathered white skeleton proves that he has always been here.
Well, the worm infiltrated human society much earlier than they had guessed, because it was more than ten years ago.
Tonight's events have brought the consortium's civil war forward.
"Now there is no one within the consortium who can preside over the overall situation." Jasmine came to the window and looked at the castle lit by light, the otherwise empty road was crowded with people, and each of the knights had made a final assembly, and this time, their opponents were likely to be the brothers who had fought alongside them.
The consortium members who were still on the sidelines and wanted to wait for the situation to become clear before making a decision had to make a decision in a very short period of time.
Their decision now will determine their fate and that of the entire family for decades to come.
The era of Richard Gilves is over. It's just that none of them could have imagined that it would end up in such a sudden, hasty way.
He didn't even leave anyone else a chance to put him on the gallows, and suddenly he disappeared without a trace.
From the lofty attic, Colin Capello was looking down on the castle, and those who hesitated had finally made a wise decision—just now, he had received a flurry of good news.
With the exception of the Knights, who are the most loyal to the other two families, he will be at his disposal for the armed forces of the other consortium members, who already have more than 73% of the forces in the second district.
And now, God has given him a justifiable reason to send troops. Richard Gilves' whereabouts are unknown, but some of them continue this sinful and greedy bloodline.
Someone has to pay for the death of the former corporate powerhouse. A moment later, Colin Capello heard movement from the master bedroom, the sound was soft, not like the sound of a door being slammed, and as soon as he turned around, he saw the maid who appeared in the bedroom in an extremely strange way, the ritual circle imprinted on the floor emitted a scarlet glow, and her strange eyes were shining.
But she stepped out from under the tentacles, and her close-fitting maid uniform was soaked with a viscous liquid of unknown composition.
This scene made Colin feel a little sick to his stomach, and then, he noticed the maid's empty wrist, and his mood fell to the bottom all of a sudden,
"What's wrong with your hand?" He didn't know the details of the maid, who had been placed by his father.
It was the first time he had seen the other person injured in a long time. The wound hadn't healed, and the empty part had made him feel uneasy, which at least meant that there were still people in the castle who could hurt her at the moment.
That could make a difference in this civil war.
"Did you do it in the moon?" Colin could only think of the name, according to the information he received, Yueji and Richard disappeared together, but Colin did not think that it was a fear of absconding, but the person in front of him kept the agreement between them and removed the stumbling block in front of them.
"No, I just happened to meet an old friend, and it didn't get in the way." The maid ignored her empty cuffs, and the light of the castle made her involuntarily excited, and she preferred the atmosphere outside to catch up with old friends.
"The Knights have been assembled, and they can do it at any time."
"There's no hurry." The maid came to Colin Capello's side,
"Until then, add another fire to this event." …… At the same time, a panicked figure broke into Yin Sabel's bedroom.
Outside the window, the fire was full of skylight, and Yin Sabel spent the whole night in fear and anxiety. The Winter Knights had already assembled and stood guard in front of the Gilves family's residence, but even that didn't give her any sense of security.
Because she heard that her father murdered her uncle for power, and now she has absconded with the help of Yueji.
It is also said that Capello and the Munch family have reached a temporary strategic alliance, and perhaps it will not be long before their knights storm the Gilves residence.
Yin Sabel had never been so flustered until the maid's voice pulled her back to reality,
"Miss!" When she came back to her senses, the maid was already behind her. Yin Sabel stared at the other party blankly, and she had no idea in her heart.
"Now that the situation is urgent, Madame tells you to go to her at once."
"Well, it's a good ......" Yin Sabel nodded obediently and got up, not even having time to sort out the clothes on her body.
"By the way, Miss, do you know something?" When she followed the maid to the door, the other party suddenly stopped, her voice was no longer as lively and docile as before, and it sounded like a pool of stagnant water.
"Actually, I really, really, really hate you." The sound of the wind breaking through the air made Yin Sabel stunned in place.
She saw the dagger glowing with cold light in the maid's hand, this kind of attack was nothing to the honor student of Daystar, but in a state of mental distraction, Yin Sabel was stunned in place.
Blood splattered. The viscous red liquid streaked across her eyes, the smell of blood creeping into her nostrils, but the expected pain didn't come, and it took nearly ten seconds for her to realize that the blood on the wall wasn't coming from her throat, but her personal maid.
A flying knife pierced the maid's palm, pinning the knife-wielding hand against the wall. The maid stared at the suddenly appearing figure with resentful eyes, but the other party seemed to see through all her actions, and when the maid's other hand reached for her waist, another dagger nailed it to the wall.
"Ah——!h The valet let out a scream of pain or rage.
"I didn't teach you this to make you assassinate the eldest lady." The head maid replied with an indifferent look.
"Really?" Yin Sabel's personal maid suddenly showed a wicked smile,
"Then let's show you something else." The maid Changtong shrank in the hole. She barely hesitated to stop and hug Yin Shabel, not caring that doing so might cause the eldest lady to be injured, so she directly slammed open the attic window and jumped out of the window.
At the moment when the sound of glass shattering came, the aftermath of the explosion changed the trajectory of the two men's fall, and the wind pressure lifted them more than ten meters away almost instantly, until they fell into the garrison of the Winter Knights in embarrassment.
The head maid turned her body into a cushion of flesh, and the moment she landed, she coughed up a mouthful of blood from the impact.
She stared in the direction of the attic. She had never seen such an explosion before, and what was left of the bomb was not a ruin, but a large part of the golden aristocratic residence that had disappeared into thin air, and there was not even a wreckage left.
If she hadn't seen the other party's next actions in advance, she and Yin Shabel would have turned into nothingness at this moment.
The head maid didn't care about the pain in her body, she struggled to get up from the ground, and put her hand on Yin Sabel's shoulder,
"Miss, please cheer up!" Now, it's far from time to rest. Once the last line of defense of the Winter Knights is breached, what awaits Yin Sabel will be an extremely tragic fate.
Yin Sabel seemed to have finally come back to her senses, and asked anxiously,
"Where's Mother?"
"Madame asked me to take you away first, she wants to stay and clean up the mess."
"But ......"
"It's non-negotiable." Yin Shabel looked at the beautiful face in front of her that was stained with blood to save her, she couldn't help but shrink her neck, and her voice was lowered,
"Okay, I'll go with you."
