Cecilia said: "The ones who killed Earl Denton were not underground monsters, but a group of humans! Their armors had the emblem of the noble family of Persuway. Nicholas IV also knew the importance of this scene, and he
Through oral narration, I asked the palace painter to restore the scene as much as possible and let me bring it over for you to watch."
Cecilia handed over a scroll.
Bai Xiaowen unfolded the scroll. It was a painting. It painted the scene before Earl Denton's death. To be precise, it was something that Nicholas IV saw and could remember.
Many parts of the scene are somewhat blank and blurry, and from the overall perspective of the painting, it is obviously unqualified. However, this was also a requirement of Nicholas IV. He asked the painter to only draw what he had definitely written down, and not to make any modifications or additions, so as not to
Interfering with Bai Xiaowen's judgment.
The most obvious and impressive thing is a young man as strong as a bull. He is wearing a noble armor with the Bethovian emblem. The sword in his hand is dripping with blood, and he has a lazy smile on his face.
To express God.
The faces of the others are not so clear, and their positions are further back.
"It seems that this is the man who killed Earl Denton."
Bai Xiaowen made an assertion, "Since he is a noble of the Persuway family, the Plantagenet Empire should also have a record. Who is this person?"
"It's the eldest son of the Duke of Bethulway, Auguste Bethulway," Cecilia said. "Strange to say, this August has always been mediocre and has no highlights. If it weren't for the Duke of Bethulway this time,
He was seriously ill, and it was never his turn to take charge of the affairs of the territory... But after August took charge of the power of the territory, he showed extremely excellent abilities and managed the affairs of the territory in an orderly manner. This time he killed Earl Denton.
, and even showed strong personal force."
Qiao Rui on the side said: "I'm afraid this is a fake."
"Yes, I don't think he is the original one. He should be an awakened person. Being able to enter as the eldest son of a powerful duke is an unusual ticket." Li Shuyi also expressed her opinion.
Bai Xiaowen frowned tightly.
It is obvious that August is the awakened person. What makes Bai Xiaowen think about it is a deeper issue.
The other team members held their breath, not wanting to disturb Bai Xiaowen's thoughts.
After a long time, Bai Xiaowen breathed out and said: "Things are getting a bit serious. I'm afraid we are facing more than just a five-man team of Awakeners."
Facing everyone's surprised looks, Bai Xiaowen continued to express his judgment: "There should be two possibilities for the hostile awakened ones currently appearing in the Kane plane."
"First, the other party is composed of three awakened teams that do not belong to each other. They cooperate and compete with each other, but the common goal is to unify."
"The basis to support this inference is that we know that the old aristocratic faction has a team of awakeners, and the underground monster camp should also have one. In order to compete for the war contribution of killing Earl Denton, the underground monster camp impatiently launched
A surprise battle, but before the battle, Earl Denton made preparations in advance... This shows that someone secretly reminded him through some channel."
"Who is the reminder? Since it is not from our camp, it is probably the awakened person from the old-school noble camp. They not only want Denton to be defeated, but also don't want him to die at the hands of the awakened person from the underground monster camp. In the case of Earl Denton
After the escape, the old nobles, this August, led people to intercept and kill him, and pocketed the contribution of the great unification."
"This shows that the awakened people in the underground monster camp compete with the awakened people in the old noble camp, so there are at least two teams of awakened people. And we have previously deduced that there are still awakened people lurking in the central province."
"In the case of two teams competing, no team will divide its own strength and send them to the central province camp. Then the awakened people in the central province should also form their own team, perhaps with the old noble camp.
Maybe the teams have formed a war alliance."
Bai Xiaowen explained in detail and his teammates understood it.
"What is the second possibility?" Cecilia listened intently, and when Bai Xiaowen was silent, she asked.
"The second scenario is what I'm most worried about."
Bai Xiaowen took a breath, "There are not three teams, but a huge team of awakeners! This team of awakeners has a clear division of labor. It should have used at least three high-level tickets. When choosing to enter, they chose the underground world.
, the three parties of the old-school nobles and the central provincial nobles! The goal of this huge team is to promote the unification of the Kane plane and promote all members to the level of evolution!"
"Is this...possible? The tickets to the spirit world are randomly matched to the plane world. It would be difficult for all the awakened members of the entire huge team to be matched to the Kane plane." Li Shuyi said.
"It is indeed difficult, but that doesn't mean it can't be done."
Bai Xiaowen sighed: "People like us who know only a little about the rules of the spiritual world can find ways to increase the success rate of matching by locating items. Those big forces with deep foundations and long traditions will definitely do it more perfectly."
"But you also said that there is competition between the awakened team of the underground world camp and the awakened people of the old aristocracy..." Li Shuyi said.
"That's true, but judging from the results, this level of competition is not vicious competition, because the outcome of Earl Denton and the Imperial Vanguard Army being annihilated has not changed. The only difference is that the killers contributed to the war.
Attribution. Within a large team, this level of calculation is within the acceptable range."
"No matter what kind of speculation it is, there are two things in common. First, the opponent has a large number of people, and second, the opponent's ultimate goal is unification." Qiao Rui gave a summary.
"For us, there are obvious differences between the two situations. The most critical point of difference is who will complete the unification?"
Bai Xiaowen said, "In the end, there can only be one camp in the great unification. Will the underground monsters unify Kane, or the conservative aristocrats? If the opposing teams are relatively independent, there will definitely be internal struggles. However, I prefer the latter one.
There is speculation that several teams on the other side belong to the same large team."
Qiao Rui said: "If it is a large team, then the unified camp they choose should be the conservative aristocrats."
"Why?" Li Shuyi and Cecilia both asked. Han Xu listened carefully and continued to make boring gourds.
"Because of Earl Denton's contribution in killing, the head of the Awakened One from the conservative aristocratic camp eventually fell on him." Qiao Rui pointed at the most conspicuous young man on the scroll, August.
"Yes, this August should be the leader of the team. He can slightly calculate the team members and steal the kill contributions, but the other way around is not possible. And the camp chosen by the team leader when cutting in must be their default
The unified camp!"
Bai Xiaowen said with emotion: "This August has great ambitions."
Qiao Rui nodded: "The old-school nobles should be the weakest among the three camps. If they can successfully counterattack and complete the unification, their contribution will be sky-high... Even if there are so many awakened people participating in sharing the contribution, as a
As the leader, he should be able to get at least a rare leader-level professional tome. With better luck, the lord may also be able to get it."
