Chapter 785: Revolution
[Thank you for the monthly pass support of AKB48SKE8 and Stars!]
The blood specimen of the Silver Hand was eventually taken for testing, and Paul only said that he was just as cautious as he should be. By the afternoon, the report came out. Compared to the previous results taken from Sauron's hair, the DNA of the two is 100% identical, which is exactly the same. Looking at such a report, Paul was silent.
The previous speculation had now come true, which meant that the silver-haired man had a good intention of taking possession of the entire city of Rome by using Sauron's genes. This kind of thing, not to mention that Paul can't tolerate it, and the wealthy nobles, including Mendrissa, can't sit back and watch such a thing happen. If you say that you supported Sauron in the past, it was only for profit. But if Gaia were to be the emperor behind the city of Rome, then they would be no different from pigs and sheep in captivity.
But before Paul could figure out what to do, there was startling news from the papal chamber. Sauron personally ordered the immediate confiscation of all the property of the Mendrissa family. This time it was even more desperate than the Joseph family, there was no excuse in the order, there was only naked deprivation!
However, with Zero's previous warning, Mendrissa sensibly chose patience and silence. He gave up his resistance, and an army appointed by Sauron marched into the family estate on the western outskirts of Rome, freezing and transferring all assets in his name.
The officer in charge of carrying out this order had a bitter look on his face when he saw Mendrissa, and wanted to say something, but Mendrissa waved his hand and said, "Carry out your order." ”
The officer lowered his voice and said, "Your Excellency, such an order is very inappropriate. Otherwise......"
"Don't say anything, as long as it's Lord Zoro's orders, you should follow through to the end. Mendrissa glanced at the two Silver Hands in charge of overseers at the gate of the manor, and if the officer made any moves, he would surely be slain by them.
Now, this is not the time for conflict.
However, in the process, there were some minor conflicts. Several young men of the Kalki family were unwilling to be deprived of their property and had an argument with the soldiers in charge of counting the property on the spot. One of them drew his pistol, but before he could do anything, a shot rang out, and the young man was shot in the forehead and lay on the ground with his eyes wide open.
It was none other than Mendrissa who shot him, and he looked at his people and said in a deep voice: "Whoever dares to disobey the order will be the end!"
The young man was his nephew, but if Mendrissa didn't kill him, the two silver hands at the door already had a tendency to show their aura. Once they are allowed to do it, they are afraid that it will not only be a nephew who will die, but the entire family will suffer.
It was not until late evening that the Mendrissa family was able to leave. All of them wore only simple clothes, and in one day, they were reduced from wealthy nobles to commoners in cloth clothes, and many of them looked sad and angry, and some women even cried. Leaving this manor not only means that they will not be able to be nobles in the future, but also that the glory and dignity of the past have been ruthlessly trampled on.
But Mendrissa didn't say a word, and even if others had opinions, they could only hide them in their hearts.
Outside the manor, the Odson family, who had rushed to hear the news, had already sent someone to pick up Mendrissa. He and several members of his immediate family were to live in the Odson family for the time being, while the rest of the family were scattered to the city of Rome, where they were cared for by several branches of the Calci family.
The destruction of the Joseph family and the fall of the Kalki family. The three giants of the past, now only the Odson family is still supporting alone, but everyone knows that as long as the Pope's Hall orders it, the Odson family may disappear at any time.
Take a deep look at the manor at night, and the family crest on the gate of the manor. Mendrissa shook his hand, keeping the shame in his mind, and vowed to pay it back a hundredfold. Then he sat in the Odensons' car, and let the doors cut off the inner and outer worlds.
In the car, Rut, the patriarch of the Odsen family, was sitting with his eyes closed. Root, who was already sixty years old, had planned to step down as patriarch this year and be succeeded by his son Carlomon. But at the Battle of Roaring Bay, Carromon was killed, and Old Root had to stay in that position.
Mendrissa sat down, and old Rutte opened his eyes and said, "Perhaps, we can't be silent any longer. ”
"What do you mean?"
"While we still have a little strength to resist, it's best to let the Lord in the Papal Hall feel our will a little. The extinction of Joseph's family is already an extremely serious incident. Now, even your Kalki family has been deprived of its title and property, which is even more outrageous. I even suspect that tomorrow morning, maybe it will become just like you. Old Ruth said: "I'm old, it doesn't matter what happens." But I can't let my own people ...... Mermaid meat!"
Mendrissa sighed, "Come with me to meet His Royal Highness the Pope, and ...... The gentleman. But old Rutte, I have to warn you that the big picture matters. ”
Old Ruth smiled: "One Carromon is not worth the entire Odson family." Rest assured, I know the stakes in this matter. Besides, now, do you think I have any other choice?"
"It's for the best. ”
Under the calculation of the holographic board above the city of Rome, the city entered the night. The Black Blood Bar was not as brightly lit as usual, it was a little dim, and in the corner of the bar, there were some customers sitting in twos and threes. or bow your head and sell drunk, or turn your head to ear. With the recent series of changes in the city of Rome, first the destruction of Joseph's family, and then the confiscation of property by Mendrissa, who knows what Sauron will do next. Even the three wealthy families are still like this, and they, the people of mole crickets, are not killed or killed.
"I really hope that the Poseidon Regiment will come over soon. A half-drunk man said suddenly.
His companion hurriedly covered his mouth and whispered, "Don't you want to die? ”
Several of the drinkers next to him had heard it, but they all pretended not to hear. The city of Rome is now in turmoil, and Sauron's tyranny has intensified. As the drunkard said, they were instead beaten by the so-called rebels, and the situation couldn't have gotten any worse anyway. What's more, I heard that the people on the other side of the rock city are living well, at least they don't have to stay in Rome for fear that they won't know what new orders will come down the next day.
The city of Rome today is full of fear.
Just below the Black Blood Bar, in Mendrissa's secret stronghold. The small room was crowded with people, and not only was there zero today, but even the old members of the Knights, such as Black Wing and Yafidi, were also gathered together. Mendrissa was also startled when he opened the door with Root.
Paul stood up first and said to Mendrissa: "I didn't expect him to do it so quickly, I discussed it with Zero just now, and I think that person seems to have a big move next." And these actions should be related to some kind of biochemical experiment. ”
"Is it because he is making a fortune on a large scale in the name of Sauron?" Mendrissa was also a man of wisdom, and had discovered that most of the expenses were used to acquire special materials needed for certain biological experiments when he had collected the income and expenditure lists of the Papal Chambers according to Zero. Combined with the actions of the man in the Pope's Hall now, his purpose is already clear.
"Introduce a few people, this is Root, the patriarch of the Odson family......" Mendrissa looked at Zero, "and Caromon's father." ”
Looking at the old man with complicated eyes, Zero stood up, stretched out his hand and said, "Commander Carromont is a brave warrior, even at the last moment, he has not fallen into the prestige of the Legion Commander!"
Old Rute shuddered, reached out and shook Zero, and simply said, "Thank you." ”
"You might as well get straight to the point and say that because of the difference in position that day. We did have a displeasure with Mr. Zero, and Habeth and Caromon could be said to have died indirectly at the hands of Mr. Zero. But on the battlefield, casualties are inevitable. Now that we are on the same front, I hope that there will be no more problems between each other, so as not to affect everyone's cooperation. I hereby declare that Habeth's hatred has passed. Now here is not a father who remembers his son, but a man who wants to restore the city of Rome. Mendrissa said, looking at Root.
Root closed his eyes, his body trembling slightly. "If Carromon were here, he wouldn't want to see a father who didn't care about the big picture for the sake of personal vendettas. So, I agree with Mendrissa. ”
"It's just wonderful. Paul said from the bottom of his heart, saying that he was initially worried about the hatred between the Zero and Mendrissa families. After all, Habeth and Caromon, two talents who are regarded as the heirs of the family, died at the hands of Zero, but fortunately, Gaia broke the bottom line between the giants, trampled on their principles and dignity, and forced them to the other side of Zero.
Compared to personal feuds, it is obvious that the family is more important than a son, which is the driving force behind the two Mendrissa families and zero to resolve hatred.
"I won't say anything superfluous, anyway, the one in the papal chamber is in a hurry to carry out some kind of experiment. Then this will certainly not be a good thing, so His Royal Highness, it's time to start a revolution. Zero looked at Paul and said indifferently.
Paul nodded and said, "I'll be going to contact some of the officers of the Order, since the return of the City of Rocks, the army is still nominally managed by Sauron. But Zoro turned a blind eye to them, and even left them idle, which had already chilled those people's hearts. They still trust me now. In addition to the events of the past few days, some people in the Order have already revealed their uneasiness and anger to me. ”
"I and Lao Rute can also help in this regard, after all, our two families still have connections in the army. Moreover, some of the side members of the Joseph family are also anxious to avenge the main family, so let's do it, the side members of the Joseph family will be contacted by me, and the old Ruth will be in charge of some other people in the army. Mendrissa suggested.
The elder Rout did not object to this proposal.
Zero nodded and said, "Then let's study how to deal with those silver hands, high-level, naturally we have to deal with it." ”
The matter was settled, and Paul and the others left, while Zero and the others remained in the room. He asked Yeliu to come out and tell everyone about the battle with the three genetic warriors on Victoria Island that day. Yeliu nodded, and cooperated with Hai Wei and the two, with Hai Wei dragging the two genetic warriors first, and she gave priority to solving one. and then killed back, and finally broke the three of them one by one.
Ye Lu emphasized: "These so-called genetic warriors do possess a ninth-order strength level. But it's another thing to fight, they give me the impression of being mechanical and precise. But it's not a good place......"
The girl nodded her head: "Three rice buckets that can only fight according to the program, it will only take a little time to kill." ”
In other words, they don't have enough combat experience. And the ability to adapt is also very lacking, if it is the same level, such as Feng and Su, it should not be difficult to deal with. However, after all, they are ninth-order, and they are just simple rank suppression, and they cannot be ignored. Zero took a piece of paper and wrote down everyone's names. Then he circled the names of Su, Kaede, and Yeliu and said, "Kaede and Yeliu, each against a Silver Hand, should be able to end the battle in 10 minutes." ”
"10 minutes...... Too much, head. Kaede smiled: "If I go all out, that wood-like guy can survive 1 minute, which is already very remarkable." ”
Zero nodded, and the others disagreed. Of course, with the strength of the ninth-order great sword master on the surface of Feng, such a statement is indeed suspected of boasting. But Zero knew that if the restrictions were lifted and the ability of the God's Hand was used, a silver hand would really not be enough.
So he readjusted, marked the number "2" on Su and Feng's names, and said, "Then, you and Su will each deal with two silver hands." ”
This is the number of kills allocated by the three ninth-order people on the side, and just the three of them have divided the hands of five silver. Next, the next level of masters are Black Wing, Jafidi, Mamilo and Mr. X. As for Cinderella, she is also a ninth-order, but her ability will be greatly reduced in this mountainside environment. If it was at sea, Cinderella's full play would have been infinitely close to the tenth order. But in the belly of the mountain, Zero only designated her as an ordinary eighth-order.
Of course, even if it was the Eighth Order, it was slightly stronger than Black Wing and the others.
The five of them were divided into three silver hands. Zero didn't want them to go it alone, but instead cooperated with each other and took advantage of the Silver Hand's lack of combat experience and adaptability to defeat them. Speaking of cooperation, the two old colleagues, Mamilo and Mr. X, worked together quite well during the Battle of Rock City. Black Wing and Yafidi are another pair of candidates to work with, both of whom are calm and calm types, and they have no problem working together.
In the end, Cinderella, she doesn't need to kill the enemy, as long as she can hold one person down, wait for either of the other two pairs to complete the objective first, and then return to assist her, she can successfully complete the mission.
According to Paul's information, there were ten men in the Silver Hand. In this way, the remaining two silver hands were of course handed over to Zero himself to greet him.
So the goals and tasks of each of them were finalized, and the next thing was to wait for Paul to set the date for their action. Zero knew that it wouldn't be too long, and that within three days at the latest, the city of Rome would be the biggest revolutionary storm ever.
After leaving the colony, Zero and Cinderella return to a house arranged for the two of them in Mendrissa. The house was originally a dwelling, just across the street from the slums of the city of Rome. Dirty, mixed with dragons and snakes is synonymous with this place, and even the soldiers of the Order rarely come here. Therefore, zero of them live here, and the chance of being found is very low.
What's more, there is also Mendrissa to cover for them. Although they are no longer a wealthy family now, for a while, the connections and prestige are still there, and it is not a problem to cover up the existence of a few people.
Zero stood on the balcony, looking in the direction of the Papal Room. Over there, he could faintly feel a deep darkness like a black hole. The darkness was like a swamp that devoured everything it could reach. And at the very center of the darkness, Zero knows that Gaia is there and knows that he is already in the city.
Therefore, Mendrissa's cover is actually dispensable, because now the real owner of the Papal Hall is Gaia and not Sauron, and if Gaia wants to kill him, Zero will be attacked as soon as he enters the city that day.
But Gaia's lack of action made Zero even more worried, because he couldn't figure out what the man was trying to do?
The unknown is the most worrying, and Zero is no exception.
"What are you thinking?"
Cinderella's amazingly elastic body was pressed up, and Zero could feel her temperature rising and hormone secretion intensifying, which is a manifestation of a creature in heat. Sure enough, Cinderella pulled Zero back indoors, and spun around in the dim light, scattering her clothes as if they had been untied by an invisible hand, revealing a charming body.
Smiling, he pushed Zero down onto the bed, and Cinderella pressed him down. She expertly unfastens Zero's clothes, then kisses Zero's body and goes all the way down. Soon, Zero entered a damp and warm place, unable to distract himself from other things under Cinderella's strong body language. So the repression and being repressed were repeated in this attic, until late at night, when the two of them lay on the bed exhausted, not wanting to move even a finger.
"Are you thinking about attacking the Papal Chamber?" asked Cinderella, pressing her long legs against Zero's body and resting her head on his arm.
Zero gently stroked her hair with his hand and said, "Actually, in the next battle, it is not those silver hands that make people worry, but ...... That person. ”
"That person?"
"Yes, his name is Gaia. He...... Very strong, very strong. Zero said: "It's so strong, even I don't have the certainty of victory." ”
“...... It's the first time I've heard you say that. Cinderella hugged him tightly and said, "It doesn't matter, if you can't win alone, you still have all of us." You're not fighting alone. ”
"No......" Zero shook his head, "He's not like the others. Anyway, he's my mortal enemy. If I'm going to keep going, I'm going to have to take him down on my own. ”
"Why do you have to do it yourself, don't you trust us?" said Cinderella, riding onto Zero's body, holding his face.
Zero smiled wryly: "Because of my relationship with him, and I know, he will definitely not let people disturb this fight." Even if you want to intervene, he will have a way to throw you off the stage. So, he's the opponent I'll have to deal with alone!"
