Chapter 588: Why

Mycroft also turned his head to look at the statue at this moment, and he couldn't help but have an image in his mind.

It was a stylishly renovated tavern with no fixed entrance and no access to outsiders.

Only the people of fate have a chance to enter the tavern.

Once you enter the tavern, you will see a young man with white hair and white robe standing behind the bar.

He looked to be in his twenties, but his eyes that seemed to know everything were full of the precipitation of time and the brilliance of wisdom.

He smiled a slightly meaningful smile and spoke in his magnetic, mysterious voice.

"Welcome."

And when the man of destiny comes out of that tavern, the history of mankind will lead in a new direction

A chill rushed from Mycroft's tail vertebrae to his head, whether it was excitement or fear.

"These three people are only known to us." "But maybe it's much more than that. ”

He seemed to have thought of something, and turned his head to look at Ebony, "Your mentor is too. ”

Eboni nodded.

"You just said that the course of human history is a river that flows endlessly, and no one can change the direction of this river?" McCroft quipped.

Eboni also seemed to realize something, raised his head slightly to look at the statue in the middle, and was silent.

"What is he doing all this for?" Sherlock asked, confused, "Because it's interesting?" ”

Mycroft didn't speak, he just silently took off his gloves, revealing his metal arm. He quietly stared at the pattern on his arm, lost in thought.

Seeing the arm, Sherlock also remembered that Mycroft had also communicated with him alone, and he whispered softly.

"So, maybe you're one too?"

"No, it's us" Mycroft turned his head to look at Sherlock, a faint glint in his eyes.

Sherlock remembered the memories they had gained, and he thought for a moment and said, "Father said that he was commissioned by our elders to give us wisdom, the elder in his mouth."

Sherlock turned his head to look at the statue of Black Lang.

"Maybe it's this one."

"Wait." Ebony seemed to see it, too, and looked at Mycroft and Sherlock, "You've seen him?" ”

"I've seen it." Mycroft muttered softly.

"He saved the whole of Britannia." Sherlock said.

Eboni thought for a moment and said, "I've heard a little about that side of things.

I've heard my mentor say that the world will change faster and faster in the future. That's why I want to ask you to become the leader of the Brotherhood. ”

After a pause, he looked at Mycroft with an unknown glint in his eyes, "What do you mean by giving 'wisdom'?" ”

"We weren't that smart before." Mycroft said directly.

Hearing this, Ebony's eyes twitched slightly.

Now, he understood who the mysterious existence that communicated with him when his mentor died......

However, he didn't mean to say what he meant by the communication he had with the mysterious being when he died.

Because the two people in front of them have actually guessed it themselves.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps from the side attracted their attention.

An Assassin wearing a hood and an Assassin costume descended the main staircase on the other side.

Ebony frowned, "What's the matter, didn't I say that no one is allowed to come down without accidents?" ”

"Something's wrong, mentor." The assassin said solemnly.

Ebony's brow furrowed even deeper, and he saw the Assassin walking briskly towards Ebory, who seemed to be listening intently.

But the next moment, Mycroft seemed to have discovered something, and shouted softly, "Be careful! ”

At this moment, the assassin slowly lifted his hood, and the light of murderous intent suddenly burst out from the darkness.

"Sting!"

The Hidden Blade stabbed straight out, and a cold glow stabbed directly into Ebony's jaw from the bottom to the top, and if it did, it would have pierced his brain directly.

"Qiang~"

The Assassin was somewhat surprised to find that his Hidden Blade had been grabbed by his hand.

It was none other than McCroft.

He was now using the Mithril arm to grab the Assassin's Hidden Blade.

The Assassin tried to break free of him, but it was clearly too late.

"Peng!" Mycroft easily snapped the Hidden Blade.

The severed blade arced through the air, the reflected light shining on his stunned face.

And the next moment.

"Poof!"

His eyes widened, and Ebony stabbed his heart with his Hidden Blade.

Then, Ebony withdrew his Hidden Blade, and he slowly fell to the ground, blood from his heart gradually spreading out, covering his chest.

Ebony's movements were so fast that Mycroft and Sherlock didn't even react.

Both of them frowned slightly.

But soon, Mycroft spoke directly, "Don't you keep him to ask?" ”

"Think about it, and know who sent it." Eboni said in a deep voice.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled. "I think I should really think about what you said. Brotherhoods must not become a tool in the hands of certain ambitionists to compete for power and profit.

If only there was such a day."

He slowly opened his eyes, as if he had made up his mind, "I will end this organization with my own hands." ”

He looked at Mycroft with an unknown glint in his eyes, "I thought you were here to find your roots. But now it seems that what you are looking for is much more complicated than I thought. ”

After a moment of silence, Mycroft continued, "Do you know the rest of the information about him?" ”

Eboni shook his head.

But he seemed to have something in mind, and continued, "I may know where you can find some clues. ”

"Where?" Sherlock asked.

"The Great Egyptian Empire." Ebony slowly spat out the name.

Hearing this, Sherlock and McCroft both looked at each other.

Although the Great Egyptian Empire is one of the six poles, it is a very mysterious country.

They do not accept immigrants and rarely have diplomatic relations with the country, but their adherence to the Suez Canal and their status as the world's largest exporter of resources have given them an important place in the international community.

As one of the four ancient civilizations, their Egyptian pyramids and ancient artifacts also attract many people who are interested in culture. But the rest of the place is not open.

"My mentor had a very good friend when he was alive." "There has always been a correspondence between them. But the night before he died, he had burned all the letters he had left. But I know that those letters were sent from the Great Egyptian Empire. ”

Eboni seems to want to say something.

I saw a gleam burst from Mycroft's eyes, and he spoke slowly.

"The main time of our elder's activity was in the time of King Arthur. And it should not be a coincidence that at that time, the founding emperor of the Great Egyptian Empire, Ramses II, also happened to appear. ”

"His presence and rise is just too strange."

Sherlock touched his chin as well.

"North Africa was still being colonized by the rest of the empires. Although the Ottoman Empire was already weakened, it was more than enough to face Egypt at that time. But he came out of nowhere, not only defeated the Ottoman Empire, but even developed Egypt into a great power in just a few years, and even unified most of the Arab nations, almost rebuilding an Arab empire.

This kind of fierce man from the sky is completely beyond common sense.

It makes perfect sense to say that he was guided by that being just like Tesla and Heilang Monique. ”

After a pause, Sherlock continued.

"But if you follow this logic"

McCroft's eyes opened slightly, and his expression gradually became much more solemn

Throughout the history of mankind, there have been many cases of macho men falling from the sky.

After all, stories need to tell logic, but reality doesn't.

There are not many stories of a man suddenly turning the tide and creating a huge country.

But once the seeds of doubt are planted, the easier it is to take root and sprout.

At this moment, they all realized one thing.

Let's not talk about the founding history of the Great Egyptian Empire. Contemporaneous Arthur the Great...... It seems even more outrageous......

"At the age of thirteen, he drew his sword in the stone, led his troops to the east without any experience in leading troops, and within a year he reached Paris.

Even within a few months, he defeated the Western Empire, which was the second largest empire in the world at that time, which was enough to compete with Britannia and had a GDP only under the Beichen Empire.

Thousands of miles rushed straight to the imperial city. Left behind a military epic that was sung by hundreds of millions of people.

And he was not even a minor that year.

This can still be explained by common sense, because it is not unheard of such a talented young general in human history.

But the story of him leading the Celtic Knights to defend the imperial capital is outrageous.

Thousands of people were on the great plains, facing hundreds of thousands of people head-on, and they were stunned to kill them, and they threw away their armor.

There is also his most classic story of quelling the rebellion of Prince Victor.

In some legends, he even slashed a rift with a single sword.

Although many scholars believe that it is caused by geological changes, the rift valleys are real. It is still an important attraction.

Legend has it that the sword in the stone held by Arthur the Great could slash out with an incomparably dazzling brilliance, enough to open the mountain and cut off the stream.

Also, according to rumors, the reason why the Great Egyptian Empire was established was actually because of the help of Britannia behind it. ”

Sherlock looked at Mycroft, "Many people now think that these seemingly non-human descriptions are due to the fact that people at the time worshipped Arthur the Great so much that they deified him.

But now, after seeing those demons and those magicians, no one should think that this is an exaggeration......"

Mycroft gasped slowly, he felt that the secrets that were enough to shake the world were being unearthed by them little by little.

The truth behind this secret made him, as well as Sherlock, feel a chill at the moment

They felt a pair of big invisible hands, quietly playing behind the scenes with this huge river called human history......

After a brief silence, Sherlock spoke slowly.

"Let's say, it's all about that person, but what is his purpose?"

Mycroft frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.

With that person's ability, it would be very easy for him to rule the whole world.

He's not in it for the power and the vulgar stuff of money.

The existence of Arthur the Great saved Britannia at that time and saved countless Britannians from the invasion of war.

And I heard that there was even a huge plague comparable to the Black Death in South Britannia at that time.

If it weren't for Arthur the Great, at least half of Britannia wouldn't exist now.

His presence tore through the gloom over the heads of the Britannians, who were gradually sinking and destroying at that time, and let the sunshine and hope shine on that land again.

So although later he was faint due to old age, no one dared to deny his merits.

The appearance of Ramses II also rescued the North Africans who were oppressed and colonized at that time.

Let the people of that land live a dignified life again.

Moreover, the Brotherhood also existed because of him, which directly caused the most powerful empires at that time to be disintegrated by internal revolution, and accelerated human civilization to another level.

And Tesla, if Tesla's mecha technology is also the source of him......

Everything he does seems to be silently pushing human civilization forward.

But why?

Why is he doing this?
