While George V kept making subtle subtleties to win over Kay, Pastor Dalton was secretly observing Kay's expression and analyzing Kay's attitude. As it turned out, their original idea was useless.
Although Reverend Dalton is an Anglican priest on the surface, in fact, his identity is extremely complicated. First of all, he is the teacher of George V. Not only George V, but also George V’s brother who died young
Prince Albert is also a student of Dalton. He is also the personal chaplain of the royal family and has a very close relationship with the royal family.
Secondly, he is also the head of the Holy Church.
The Holy Church is an organization with a very long history in the UK. Its predecessor can be traced back to the time of Alfred the Great. At that time, it was just a knightly organization, used to secretly protect the safety of the royal family and Christian missionaries, and maintain the Anglo-Saxon
Human dominance gradually evolved into the pursuit of supernatural creatures hiding in the darkness.
Finally, he also serves as the head of the royal intelligence department. Although the royal intelligence department is not officially part of the government, it has strong ties with regular intelligence departments such as MI6, and even has the authority to command those intelligence departments.
Because of such a complicated identity, although Reverend Dalton was apparently insignificant, he actually held a pivotal position both in the British aristocracy and in the British government.
As early as a week ago, Dalton learned about Kai's situation through Catherine's report. Since then, he and some core government personnel began to conduct various consultations and plans regarding Kai's appearance.
The emergence of Kai is definitely more than just the resurrection of a historical figure for the ruling elites like them. Behind Kai, they see huge benefits.
First of all, the wealth in Kay's tomb is of great significance to the current British government.
The outbreak of war was something that the British government had long expected, and they had made a lot of preparations for it, including armaments and financial reserves. But it was only after the war broke out that the British government discovered that their preparations were useless.
I never expected that the war would progress to this level.
The British government seriously underestimated the scale of the war and had no clear understanding of the horrors of the war before the war.
When the war broke out, Britain's financial reserves quickly evaporated, and the British industrial system was not enough to support the consumption of the war. So in order to ensure the smooth progress of the war, Britain had to turn to the United States. This made Britain, the largest creditor in the world before the war, turn to the United States for help.
The country quickly became a debtor country.
It can be said that Britain is short of everything now, but the most lacking thing is gold. Because during the war, paper money was useless at all, and others only accepted gold! Without gold, Britain's most basic supplies such as arms, food, medicine, coal, etc.
All will be affected.
The war rapidly increased Britain's demand for American supplies and commodities, stimulating the prosperity of the American economy. More importantly, the gold reserves linked to the pound quickly flowed to the United States. (The United Kingdom was still on the gold standard at this time)
Such consequences are extremely serious and may even affect the pound's status in international settlements.
Therefore, the batch of gold owned by Kai is extremely important to them. Although they have not yet estimated how much gold is owned by Kai, according to Catherine's description, this batch of gold is definitely much larger than the current reserves of the Bank of England.
Secondly, the value of Kai itself is also very high.
As the war progressed, the Allied Powers and the Central Powers were resorting to all kinds of tricks. All kinds of tricks that could be put on the table had been used for a long time, and there were even more underhanded tricks in private. Now, Germany has
Start to break through the bottom line.
Remember Ludendorff’s Vipers? This was Germany’s effort to break the situation.
According to the intelligence from the British intelligence department, this so-called commando team is not a biological and chemical force at all, or in other words, this force does not only rely on biological and chemical weapons to affect the war. Feedback from various aspects of intelligence shows that the Germans have begun to engage in conflicts with Europe
Those ancient dark creatures made contact.
For this reason, the Germans did not consider the interests of their ally, the Austro-Hungarian Empire. During this time, the southern region of the Austro-Hungarian Empire has become a carnival of various dark creatures. Vampires, wizards, werewolves and various dark creatures began to appear in
Appears frequently in Eastern and Southern Europe.
If the Germans or those dark creatures were placed alone in front of the Allied Powers, the Allied Powers would not be very afraid, especially those dark creatures that could only hide in the darkness for so many years and could not make trouble at all.
But the problem is that if the two are added together, it will be different. The combination of Germany's industrial and technological strength and dark creatures scares the Allies. Therefore, in order to contain such a combination, the Allies must take countermeasures.
In fact, the counterattack has already begun. During this period, the Allied Powers have had very active ties with the Holy See. The Holy See cannot tolerate the rampant dark creatures, so they are willing to cooperate with the Allied Powers. At the same time, the Holy See is also very happy to bring Italy and the Holy See together.
Secret negotiations began between the Allied Powers.
But no one has too many countermeasures. So the development of Kai's Mausoleum came about.
It's just that the results of the development far exceeded the British expectations. I didn't expect that Kai was actually alive!
Unexpectedly, Kay's strength was so strong. Based on the assessment obtained from Catherine's report, Dalton and a group of government leaders hoped that Kay could be used by the British government.
To put it bluntly, they both want Kai's money and want Kai to be a knife in their hands.
However, judging from the current situation, things are not as smooth as they imagined. Kai is not interested in soliciting the British government at all.
"Both the royal family and the people hope that you can lead us against tyranny at this moment!" George V Balabala said a lot, but the core meaning is actually only this sentence. Of course, this sentence is still very watery. What kind of leadership?
They fight tyranny, bullshit!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If Kai really stood up and wanted to lead them, they would probably be the first to stand up and oppose. Kai went to lead the people to resist tyranny, what were they doing?
Kai leads? Stop dreaming.
Kai doesn't like this kind of hypocrisy, but it doesn't mean he doesn't understand. Kai's rich experience has given him enough wisdom in life.
"With all due respect, Your Majesty the King, after you have said so much, I still can't figure out what this war has to do with me. Although I'm sorry, I still have to say that you may be dissatisfied with me because of those legends.
I have some misunderstanding. I am not a savior, nor do I intend to be a savior. I only fight for my country, but now...my country has disappeared, and my reason to fight is gone."
When Kai said this, although he felt disappointed, he had an idea in his heart unconsciously.
That is to go back to China.
He once worked hard to return to the East, but in that era, the road to the East was blocked by a mysterious force, making his wish to return to his homeland in vain. But it is different now, although Kai is still there
We don't know what the situation is like in the ancient eastern continent, but we know from Cotman and others' words that that ancient country has already come into contact with the outside world.
After learning about this situation, Kai wondered if he could return to China. Although the time was a bit early, according to the history of parallel time and space, this was the darkest era in China. If Kai went back, what would he do?
Maybe I can still make some contribution to the country I love so much, so that China in this time and space will no longer experience the darkness, and maybe it can rise earlier and faster.
