August said: "Yes, the fake emperor was caught by the imperial army, and the conservative aristocratic camp can be said to be almost extinct... Let alone ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, I can't even become the leader of the conservative aristocracy. I will stay indefinitely.
Of course, time is out of the question."
"This time the plan was thwarted, the intelligence team must be held responsible."
Richard, the deputy squad leader, showed no emotion or anger on his face, and said calmly: "As an awakened person, I was tricked by someone from the spiritual world... I don't even know when the imperial army will make a detour to outflank the gold mine...
…Andre, everyone needs an explanation.”
"Agree." The leader of the auxiliary team, Alberta Golightly, added.
"The intelligence team is indeed responsible for this failure. After returning, the Newcastle family will pay corresponding chips. However, now is not the time to hold people responsible. Uniting together and finding a way to break the situation is the top priority."
Andre continued with a cold face: "Moreover, Mr. Richard Kewell, if the original plan is thwarted, shouldn't you be the happiest person?"
"I don't understand what you mean." Richard frowned.
"We originally planned to be a conservative aristocratic force. As a unified camp, it is most beneficial to the squad leader. After all, the identity is there. In the other camps, the Imperial Army mixed in with the intelligence team members, the drow mixed in with Camille, and the Plague Territory mixed in.
The deputy squad leader...it can be said that they all serve the unification of the conservative aristocratic forces."
After a pause, Andre continued: "Now that the hope of the conservative nobles is slim, our strategic focus has shifted. Among the three currently existing camps, the most suitable choice is only the Plague Territory. And as the 'Calamity General'
As the deputy squad leader, you will naturally have unique conditions. If this unification can succeed, your war contribution will even be higher than that of the squad leader, and you will get better professional classics!"
Having said this, Andre's lips revealed a sneer, "With the vision of the deputy monitor, I must have seen this a long time ago, right? Maybe I'm still secretly happy in my heart."
"Haha, what you said, Andre, is meaningless. I wholeheartedly hope that the original plan will succeed. Now that the plan fails, the focus can only be shifted to me. You can't blame me, right?" Richard
A smile appeared on Kwill's lips.
Andre said coldly: "Don't be too happy, deputy squad leader. We are not just facing the empire, those figures in the spiritual world are just chess pieces. There are also chess players standing behind the emperor! If you are not careful, there will be alternatives.
The probability of the plan failing is also extremely high.”
Vice squad leader Richard curled his lips: "Chess player? Why didn't I see it? I think you are trying to cover up your incompetence by blaming the unfounded cause of failure on the awakened people of the opposite camp... If there is a so-called 'chess player'
',Why didn't you see the gold mine battle before?"
Knock knock.
August knocked on the table: "Richard, if you talk to Andre like that again, don't blame me for throwing you out. Shit, the situation has obviously become favorable to you, but you are still chasing after you here...
…At worst, it will break up and everyone will return directly to look for the next opportunity for unification.”
Deputy monitor Richard's expression changed slightly, and he said no more in a sarcastic tone.
Camille raised her hand and spoke: "There are indeed hostile awakeners. The two members of the suppression team who entered the drow camp with me can testify that all three of us have seen them."
"Why didn't I listen to you before? You concealed the key information!" Alberta, the leader of the auxiliary team, wanted to blame Camille.
Camille is a non-stick pan, and she smiled lightly and said: "After I encountered the hostile awakened person, I reported this information to the intelligence team leader Mr. Andre on the same day. As for you, I don't seem to need to tell you, right?"
"Hmph." Auxiliary team leader Alberta hummed.
Seeing the two team leaders quarreling again, Andre felt very powerless.
The members of Class 129 of the Shenting training camp all come from different territories, and they all have their own little plans, and their cohesion is very poor.
It would be okay if things go smoothly all the time, but once there is a setback, internal conflicts will quickly amplify. Relying solely on August's prestige to suppress it is not the answer.
"Stop arguing for now..." Andre sighed and said, "Don't you want to know more about this chess player behind the scenes?"
The basement became quiet.
"Have you checked it out?" Camille was the first to ask.
"That's right."
Andre said calmly: "When the members of the intelligence team were expelled, they passed on the last piece of information to me. The person who led the team to expel them was an awakened person named Cecilia, whose profession was an archer commander...
…In the past two days, I visited the aboriginal people in the Xisha Province and unexpectedly learned that this Cecilia is a noble from the Northland Province. She is very famous in the Plantagenet Empire. She once participated in the Northland Residency War.
.”
"Everyone knows, right? The remnants of the North once had a war with the Plantagenet Empire under the instigation of the Lord of Plague."
"You know, isn't this one of the background stories of Kane's plane?" Deputy squad leader Richard said.
"No, this is not a background story, but a war that actually happened, involving awakened people. Our early preparations ignored this!"
Andre said: "During the war, in addition to Cecilia, known as the 'White Rose', there was another nobleman who shone brightly. His name was Dio Skelboom, who was from a run-down noble territory.
heir."
"Originally, this guy named Dio was a waste, and he could hardly maintain his territory. But when the war came, he seemed to be a different person. He raised an army to eliminate the bandits, investigated the undead plague, and even secretly secretly killed the Lord of the Plague.
He directly annexed another territory he controlled, and finally killed the commander of the survivors, Chief Absolun Herzlit. Because of his cruel methods, he was called the 'cold-blooded devil of the North'..."
Andre looked around at everyone: "What did this experience remind you of?"
"Wow, this Dio must be the Awakened One." August said, touching his chin.
Andre nodded: "Yes, he is a very powerful awakener, and he also gained enough benefits in that war. The biggest benefit is a 'quasi-territory'!"
Everyone in the basement was shocked when they heard the word quasi-territory.
"Are you so perverted? You've already acquired a quasi-territory."
"This guy must be from the Star Alliance. I don't know if he is the heir to a large territory."
Andre said calmly: "We have chosen the Kane plane as the unified trial plane, and have already sent notes to the major forces of the Star Alliance. If this awakened person comes from a major force of the Star Alliance, they will definitely raise objections to us because
Kane's unification of the plane violated his important interests."
"But we didn't get any feedback. Instead, we were caught off guard. What does this mean? There are two possibilities... First, the other party comes from a big force that is opposed to Shenting. They know that verbal objections are ineffective, so they simply sabotage them secretly.
Our grand unification plan. Secondly, the other party is not the heir to any major power in the Star Alliance at all, but an awakened person from a small power with excellent strength and great luck."
"No matter what the possibility is, we have to have fun with him." August said with a smile.
"Yes, so our target for the next stage is placed here." Andre's finger suddenly pointed to the north of the Plantagenet Empire map.
