I found a kidnapped person on the Glass Island, and the only clue I could get was a name——
Tommy couldn't even imagine how difficult this matter would be.
Not to mention, he had to kill the demon possessed by the shadow demon in order to get Aiwass back.
But to be honest, that kind of thing is easier for Tommy. After all, with a clear goal, there is a way to achieve it. What Tommy fears most is the situation where he doesn't know how to start.
Tommy's mood was extremely complicated at this moment...regret mixed with fear, anger mixed with uncontrollable rage.
In fact, he has always known that there is no benefit in really attacking Aiwass. If Aiwass chooses his side, Tommy will definitely defend him to the death, and even regard him as his direct descendant. But the problem is, Aiwass side
Over there at Boca.
Boca doesn't even hide its purpose.
As long as he has the opportunity to surpass himself, he will definitely take action. At that time, he will die - from this perspective, he issued the order for his own survival.
The only problem is that he was overwhelmed by jealousy and anxiety... He could have chosen a more subtle method, but he was too hasty.
Vice President Boka who was chasing after him made him dizzy, so he planned to weaken Boka's power - if killing Aiwass would bring any consequences, then Boka would take the blame, and he could do it too
Just cut off the entire Lloyd's company and resign as a matter of course.
Even if they are not killed, it can create a rift between Aiwass and Boca, thereby reducing Boka's power in disguise. There is even a chance of pulling Aiwass to his side.
After all, it was Boca who proposed the attack on Aiwass.
And what I did was just emphasize the attitude of Noble Red and demand that Boca must increase its stakes and not let go. From my own point of view, there is no problem.
To be honest, Tommy has reviewed the plan repeatedly and until now, he still doesn't think there is anything wrong with his plan.
He is just not wrong.
It's all due to bad luck.
——How could he possibly guess that the Great Arbiter Meg would take action over such a trivial matter?
Aiwass is just the second son of the Moriarty family, and he is even an adopted son like himself. What if he is just an adopted son, even if he has some ability?
Besides, he has a brother above him and a sister below, so there is no heir in the family at all. The old Moriarty didn’t react even after he died, so how could something happen to Aiwass even alarm Meg? He is obviously not very strong, and he has no
What kind of talent must be valued...
Now I am only in the first level at the age of eighteen, and I have no academic monographs. My grades are said to be pretty good, and I have no research or inventions.
What on earth can't he do?
Tommy still couldn't figure out why Aiwass could alarm Meg and let Meg force herself for him.
——This is completely impossible to predict!
She has never interfered in political affairs before. Her help to any party may cause speculation in the Round Table Hall, which will cause the situation in Avalon to become chaotic. Just like if a fish moves a little, the water on the shore will be
muddy.
Meg has not made a move for at least five years... or even close to ten years. Even if the royal family was cursed and died one after another, she has never made a move. In this case, it is completely reasonable to think that Meg no longer wants to take action.
.
But it's too late to regret it now. I've already been cursed.
That is the "final arbitration" that the "Great Arbiter" personally ordered to himself. It is the highest version of the "word spirit" used by all the legalists on the authoritative path. Even those who are proficient in curses on the transcendent path cannot touch this curse.
——This is a delayed burst of word spirit damage. It is not a curse, but closer to a contract.
As the president of Lloyd's of London, he is also the president of the Avalon Merchants' Federation.
The total number of people in the Round Table Hall is about one hundred and twenty, but there are only seventy or eighty people who often attend meetings. Only when the motion involves their vital interests, or when the matter is relatively important, the number of people who attend the meeting will increase.
There will be more.
And Tommy indirectly sponsored more than fifty of them, all of whom often attended Round Table Hall meetings... In other words, he basically controlled two-thirds of the seats in the Round Table Hall under normal conditions through bribery and other means. And because the inspector
Due to the existence of the hospital, these people dare not connect with each other, so they do not know that others are also controlled by them, which means that it is difficult for them to unite and betray themselves together.
It may be difficult to force these knights to pass laws that are not favorable to them. But if it is an ambiguous bill, his words will still work.
When Meg is loyal to the Queen, the royal family basically obeys the opinions of the Round Table Hall, and the Round Table Hall basically obeys his own opinions, Tommy can indeed be regarded as an underground emperor - even though he spends a lot of money every time he issues an order, in the end
It can allow a country's agenda to be reversed at will according to one's own wishes.
Even if the knights don't know which Knights of the Round Table are controlled by Tommy with money, they can still realize that the laws passed in recent years are basically beneficial to businessmen. Therefore, even the Inspectorate does not dare to attack Lloyd's at will.
——Even if they knew that Lloyd's was involved in dangerous goods smuggling, so what?
There are many inspectors who have accepted his sponsorship, and when they come to investigate, someone will always call him in advance. Sometimes the inspectors are even too enthusiastic, and the caller can keep the phone busy for half an hour.
What Meg said, others dare not touch her - this is true. She dared to touch him, this is also true. That's why Tommy respects her so much... because such a strong person can no longer
To influence her through the Round Table Hall. If Tommy ordered the knights to target Meg, they would immediately rebel.
But what puzzles Tommy is, what on earth did the old woman do so crazy today?
Could it be that she is almost dying of old age and is now dealing with her posthumous affairs?
"I hope she dies soon."
Tommy cursed viciously and cursed several times.
He thought for a long time and started making phone calls in the office.
His first call was to the vice president of Boca.
The phone only rang once and was picked up instantly. It was obvious that Boca had been staying by the phone.
"Mr. Boca," Tommy said solemnly, "there was an accident last night. Can you explain it to me?"
Of course he knew that Boca was not responsible for this, because Boca had no motive for letting "Aleister" kidnap Aiwass.
But this did not prevent him from pushing Boca out as a target first - if he wanted to mobilize the entire Round Table Hall to help him investigate Aleister, he had to find someone who could take the blame for them in advance.
You can't investigate until the end and find yourself involved.
Boka, who was on the other side of the phone, also had a serious look on his face.
The spiritual intuition from the extraordinary allowed him to clearly detect the malice and threat in Tommy's words.
"What, Mr. Lloyd?"
But Boca didn't back down: "You're here to show off your victory to me, aren't you?"
Tommy Lloyd was a little surprised to hear the hostility in Boca's voice.
Normally, Boca would only choose to retreat. He is such a person... he looks serious and calm, but in fact he is a very timid person. Even if he has inside information, his investment strategies are very cautious.
Before the Noble Red Society began to interfere with Lloyd's, Boca was a well-known coexistence faction.
At that time, Lloyd's Club already wanted to usurp the throne. Rather, they had been planning for this since Prince Lloyd.
But now that it was only half a step away from completion, Vice President Boca took half a step back.
He believes that a group of businessmen cannot manage the country well. Today, everyone can be united because of the Round Table Hall and the royal family. But if they really want to succeed in usurping the throne, they will fight each other because of their interests. From this perspective, maintaining
The best situation is that the entire country functions normally and they only enjoy privileges without having to work hard for them.
Therefore, Boca does not agree with seizing power. He still hopes that the Du Lac family will inform Avalon to maintain the greatest possible stability. And many knights in the Round Table Hall also think so - they are tired of Avalon's current too many rules.
Long, but I don’t want to change too much.
I want freedom, but only a little.
But to Lloyd, this was a traitor.
It is impossible for the public to accept a businessman usurping the royal power. Not to mention that he is a hybrid giant with part of the blood of cannibals flowing in his body. He needs strong enough oppression to leave them with no choice.
And then accept this no choice - the source of pressure Tommy Lloyd chose is the Kingdom of Star Antimony.
But Boka's idea is to suck blood from him.
Those who think Lloyd is too extreme will find it easier to accept Boca's ideas when they look back and see that there is a more conservative faction called Boca. The more powerful Lloyd's oppression is, the easier it will be to push them towards Boca.
Rushing on the side.
This is the reason why he always wants to be the enemy of Boca and drive the opponent to death.
The furious blood in his body was still boiling. Tommy had already made murderous intentions towards Vice-President Boca several times.
That is to say, he is not sure that he can kill the opponent directly on the spot.
If Boka is accidentally let go, the situation will become complicated and anxious... Because of this, Boka can survive. Otherwise, he would have eliminated his mortal enemy through physical means.
But even though he had revealed his murderous intention, Boka was still willing to obey his orders - Tommy ordered Boka to send stronger people to attack Aiwass, such as his Blade Demon and Whip Demon.
In the end, he actually sent him out.
——That’s the Blade Demon!
Although it is only the third level in terms of path power, it can defeat the fourth level head-on. With the support of the whip demon and the restraint of the devil dog, even multiple fourth levels can be defeated.
Moreover, what the Blade Demon is most proud of is its powerful pursuit ability - it is useless to escape in front of the Blade Demon, and its obsession to chase the opponent to death even if they both die together is extremely threatening in a one-on-one battle.
.
When Boca sent out the Blade Demon, Tommy felt that he was really going to give up on Aiwass. Because he had reached this point and still didn't dare to fall out with him... Tommy only felt that he was so weak that it was terrifying.
laugh.
But now, Boca has become tougher.
——Why did you suddenly become tough at this time?
Tommy's head was full of questions.
There are simply too many unreasonable things about this matter.
Why did Meg suddenly take action? Why did Boka suddenly become tough? Where did the demon possessed by the shadow demon come from?
Chapter 2 will be a little later, it should be about the same as yesterday!
Damn it, I got up at nine o'clock again today! My schedule has begun to loosen up again, which is a bad sign! (panic)
