Walking into the bright hall, a burly middle-aged man was sitting there with a glass of wine in his hand and a plate of fruit in front of him, drinking slowly.
"Mr. Venus, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
After a while, Adil walked in from the outside. Looking at the middle-aged man sitting in the center of the hall, he couldn't help but said apologetically.
"It's okay, your hospitality here is very attentive." Looking at Adier walking from a distance, Venus showed a smile on his face, and coupled with his slightly red face, it looked very eye-catching: "
In fact, I didn’t wait long.”
"As long as you're not angry." Adier smiled, looked at Venus who owed credit, and said, "I wonder what's the matter with Mr. Venus coming here this time?"
"Indeed." Venus nodded and sighed: "There is news from the Governor of Lyon."
"Huh?" Hearing this, Adier was stunned.
Some time ago, Leon was no longer in Caria City. Instead, he was summoned by the Royal Capital and went to the Purple Flower King Capital to report on his duties.
During this period, the part of the Carian army that was originally under the control of Lyon was actually under the control of Venus.
This was also the reason why Adil was polite to him. If an ordinary person came to visit, I'm afraid it would be a problem whether he could see him or not, let alone being so polite.
"Is there trouble with the Governor?" He frowned, and after a while, Adil asked hesitantly.
"That's right." Venus nodded slightly, and then sighed: "And it's not an ordinary trouble."
"Please tell me." Adier's face returned to calmness, he looked at Venus in front of him, and motioned for the other party to explain the situation.
Under Adil's gaze, Venus did not hesitate, nodded directly, and then began to tell.
The reason why Leon entered the royal capital this time was because he was summoned by the Purple Flower royal family, but the root cause was the riot in the royal tomb underground in the royal capital.
At this time, several months have passed since the original blood moon. At this time, the original curse has been fully revived. The royal tomb at the foot of the royal capital is no exception. It has been in constant turmoil during this period.
, brought a lot of losses to the royal family.
In order to deal with this royal tomb, the royal family will summon all the governors and prepare to mobilize the power of the major governors to enter the royal tomb and completely pacify the royal tomb.
"The royal family's move this time is certainly to suppress that royal tomb, but if you think about it from another angle, it is also weakening the power of each province to enhance the authority of the royal family."
Sitting in front of Adil, Venus had a sneer on her face: "This time it's not just the province of Elka, there are a total of thirteen provinces in the country, including the various nobles in these provinces, most of whom have been recruited.
It’s going to be used to suppress the riot in the King’s Tomb this time, the meaning couldn’t be more obvious.”
"However, even if this is the case, there is nothing we can do." Sitting on the wooden chair, listening to Venus's complaints, Adier remained calm on the surface, but secretly frowned.
It has to be said that anyone with a discerning eye can see that this action of the Zijinhua royal family is definitely not only to suppress a disaster-level curse, but also to consume the power of the major families, thereby strengthening the weak branches and increasing the number of the royal family.
authoritative purpose.
But so what if I knew this.
The Purple Golden Flower royal family has been inherited for more than three hundred years. The royal family has not completely declined until now, and it still has extremely powerful power.
Anyone who dares to disobey the royal family's orders at this time will definitely be attacked by the royal family together with the family behind him in the next moment, and the end will definitely not be easy.
Therefore, no matter how afraid he was, Leon had to go there to avoid being targeted by the royal family.
"To deal with the curse, ordinary soldiers are of little use. You only need to send psychics there."
Sitting opposite Adier, looking at Adier, Venus continued to speak.
"Your Majesty the Governor, do you want me to come over?" Adil said with a smile, and there was no trace of any strangeness on his face.
"That's right." Venus nodded: "You must go there."
"In the past few months, your news has spread. Now the royal family has learned about it and specially named your name. Therefore, whether the Governor wants to or not, you must go there."
Hearing this, Adil frowned and seemed a little resistant to this.
He didn't speak for a while, but sat there quietly. After a long time, he raised his head again, looked at Venus in front of him, nodded lightly and said, "When are you leaving?"
"In three days." Seeing Adier nodding and sitting across from him, Venus secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After stating a deadline, he quickly added: "Of course, this time is not fixed. If Xi
"Mum, if you have any important matters at hand, you can finish them before setting off."
"No need." Looking at Venus, Adier stood up from where he was: "Three days is not bad, then in three days, I will be here waiting for Mr. Venus to arrive."
"Okay." Venus nodded. After confirming Adier's answer, he finally let go of the uneasy mood in his heart and became a little grateful: "Sim, believe me, the Governor will definitely thank you."
"There's no need to thank you or anything like that." Adil smiled: "I am originally a subordinate of the Governor, and it is my duty to work for the Governor."
"However, if I really want to thank you, I hope you can prepare some white gems for me. I believe Mr. Venus knows that I like this stuff very much." Adil said with a smile, with some hints.
Listening to Adier's words, Venus did not reply, but a glimmer of understanding flashed in her eyes.
In the recent period, the news of Adil's love for white gems has spread around. Not only Venus, but also some higher-ranking nobles and businessmen in Caria City now know about Adil.
of this hobby.
This is also the reason why Adir was able to harvest so many Essence Stones in a short period of time.
Those high-status nobles and businessmen were all well-connected and financially powerful. After these people found out about Adil's preferences, they immediately gave gifts in various ways, just to be able to get a little closer to Adil.
Friendship means that when there are difficulties in the future, you can ask the other person to help.
Just the essence stones sent by these people were several times what Adier had purchased himself, making it much more convenient for him.
Therefore, in this case, Venus naturally knew Adier's preferences, and immediately responded: "I remember that there are still a lot of white gemstones in stock in the secret vault of the Governor's Mansion.
Use it.”
"When I return later, I will send someone to deliver it to you immediately."
"Then I'll trouble you." Hearing this, Adil smiled and seemed very satisfied with this.
"No, as long as you like it." Looking at the time, Venus spoke and stood up: "It's already early, I still have some things to do, so I'll leave first."
According to politeness, Adier tried to persuade him to stay for a few words, and finally saw that he was really going to leave, so he asked the butler on the side to send him out.
Watching Venus' figure gradually move away, the smile on Adil's face gradually faded, replaced by complete indifference and indifference.
"Each idea was better than the last, but unfortunately, none of them could see clearly what was under the ground."
Thinking about the content of his previous conversation with Venus, he shook his head and felt a little amused by the royal family's aggressive move this time.
At this time, more than four months have passed since the blood moon came.
It has been more than four months, and if we go by what Adier had seen from the Wheel of Fortune before, there are only two months left before the King's Tomb completely erupts.
The purple golden flower royal family has a good idea now. In the name of the underground king's tomb, it summons governors and psychic families from all over the country and consumes their power in the king's tomb. This can not only solve the hidden danger of the king's tomb, but also silently
Consuming the strength of various governors and families, thereby strengthening the authority of the royal family, can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
But there was one thing where they made a complete mistake.
"Under normal circumstances, if it is just an ordinary disaster-level curse, it is not wrong to do so, but what if it is not a disaster under the royal capital, but a real forbidden area?"
Thinking about the scene he saw in the Wheel of Fortune, he murmured, his face becoming more and more indifferent: "We miscalculated the strength of the curse. This mistake alone is enough to lead to serious consequences. In the end, if a large number of people go down, I am afraid that not only will we not be able to
The method was not to eliminate the curse of the king's tomb, but instead delivered food to the door, which in vain increased the power of the curse of the king's tomb, causing it to finally explode."
The power of the curse will continue to grow.
In theory, even if it is just a weak curse initially, with enough time and accumulation, it can continue to strengthen and eventually reach a terrifying point.
This was the case with the previous Lost City. According to the records in the classics, when it was first born, it was just an ordinary disaster. However, after thousands of years have passed and after swallowing countless lives, it has now become
It transformed into a forbidden place.
The same goes for the Curse of the King's Tomb.
According to Adil's estimation, the curse on the king's tomb at this time may have reached the level of a forbidden land.
At this level, if the royal family had no reservations from the beginning and went all out, there would be no problem. No matter how much effort they put in, the result would not change and the royal tomb could be bulldozed directly.
However, the royal family miscalculated the curse of the royal tomb. Not only did they not plan to take action personally, but they wanted to mobilize the power of governors from various places to suppress it.
This becomes a food delivery. If all the people mobilized in this group die in the king's tomb, after devouring these people, the curse of the king's tomb will become even more terrifying. In the end, when it breaks out, the curse will become even more terrifying.
It is possible that the entire royal city could be overthrown.
And this possibility has clearly appeared in the future picture manifested by the Wheel of Fortune, indicating that the next scene will be bloody.
"However, this is none of my business." Thinking of the various images that appeared in his mind, Adil shook his head and said with a cold expression: "With my current strength, if we really fight, I'm afraid I won't be able to match the curse of the King's Tomb.
, I can only ensure that I don’t die inside.”
"After participating, try to harvest the world energy as much as possible before the curse fully breaks out, and save Leon on the way. As for the rest, just act according to the situation."
He shook his head and said helplessly.
If possible, he would like to prevent this from happening. After all, if he saves a city from a curse, he will definitely gain a lot of energy, enough to allow him to do many things.
It's a pity that his current strength is not enough. If he is called here in his true form, there is still some hope.
