Chapter 364 Mr. Fool: Want to be promoted to Black Emperor?
Above the gray fog, Klein sat at the head of the long bronze table, looking slightly downward, overlooking the images transmitted from the magician lady.
"Dear Mr. Fool, I recently learned a great secret, and I thought you would be interested in it, so I took the liberty to disturb you in the middle of the night."
"Go ahead." Klein simply said.
"It's like this. I got accurate information from an important person. King George III of the Kingdom of Loen wants to be promoted to Sequence 0 Black Emperor in the near future."
Hearing this, Klein perked up. He got accurate information from Roselle's diary. Roselle had jumped to the Black Emperor's path at the last moment of his life.
If George III successfully ascends to Sequence 0 Black Emperor, then Roselle, who is not yet dead, will perish completely.
He was still grateful to this fellow countryman who had helped him a lot, but if he wanted to influence George III to become the Black Emperor, his power alone was too weak.
"I wonder if Mr. Fool has ever heard of the Capin case that caused such a stir in Backlund. The Loen royal family was the manipulator behind the Capin case. They sold a large number of slaves in order to build the mausoleum needed to be promoted to the Black Emperor…"
Fors continued speaking, telling all about the crimes committed by George III.
After she finished speaking, she lowered her eyes, feeling very nervous, fearing that Mr. Fool would suddenly ask her about the origin of the news.
Klein really wanted to ask Miss Magician about the source of this information, but considering Mr. Fool's image of knowing everything, asking such a question would be too cheap.
"Promoted to Black Emperor? This is not a good time." Klein chuckled mysteriously and cut off his connection with Miss Magician.
In order to verify the authenticity of the news, Klein used the power of the gray fog to confirm it through divination.
The final answer was that everything Miss Magician said tonight was true.
Klein was silent, thinking of the innocent girl in the Kapin case, and then the Backlund smog incident.
In order to be promoted to the Black Emperor, George III teamed up with the Witch Cult to do so many evil things. Could he really watch them succeed in being promoted?
After just a moment of thinking, he already had the answer in his heart.
"I need a capable helper."
Klein quickly thought of the mysterious Queen Bernadette. She was Roselle's daughter, and she must be more active than he was in the matter of George III's promotion to the Black Emperor.
She is now a believer of the stars. With the authority of the stars that watch over everything, they will definitely tell Bernadette such important news.
Klein thought seriously for a moment, and after returning to the real world, he contacted Will.
Currently, among the beings in Backlund who have the ability to interfere with George III's deification, Will can definitely be considered one of them.
Will appeared in his dream, lazily wearing blue floral and star-patterned pajamas.
After hearing what Klein wanted to ask, Will suddenly perked up and looked at Klein with a complicated and embarrassed look.
"George III does want to take this opportunity to become a god, but you are not capable of stopping him, not to mention that he has a bunch of useful subordinates and helpers around him."
Will was not optimistic about this.
"I know, that's why I came to you to see if you knew any way to stop Him."
"Destroying His mausoleum can shake the foundation of His becoming a god. The more mausoleums that are destroyed, the more likely it is that His promotion will fail." Will gave his suggestion after a brief thought.
"Thank you." Klein was very satisfied with the suggestion.
Will coughed lightly and said, "Originally I could help you a little, but recently that stupid snake Ouroboros has been staying in Backlund and staring at me, making it difficult for me to free up my hands to help you."
"Will you be in danger?"
"Don't worry. I have played hide-and-seek with Him countless times. He hasn't been able to catch me yet, but I can't reveal my identity either."
Klein smiled and said, "That's enough. I will go find the right helper myself."
"Go find Bernadette. She is currently in Backlund. She will definitely be involved in this matter."
"Um."
After ending the dream with Will, Klein glanced at the time. It was already past eleven o'clock at night.
Instead of falling asleep, he moved a chair and sat in front of the desk, spread out a blank piece of letter paper, and began to write.
He wanted to write to Mr. Azik and ask for his opinion and help.
Interfering with George III's deification is fraught with danger. At the critical moment, he needs Mr. Azik to help him once.
As for the people who destroyed the mausoleum, in addition to Bernadette, he also planned to ask the messenger to help, although it would cost a certain amount of gold coins.
Alas, I am going to be poor again.
…
A royal manor in the suburbs.
In the study on the second floor, the former Grand Duke of Southwell, Derek Augustus, had a gloomy face and a letter in his hand turned into powder.
His child, the current Grand Duke of Southwell, is dead!
The cause of death was that he drank too much and accidentally fell into the artificial lake at home and drowned.
This sounds like a very normal reason for death, but he is sure that there must be the influence of extraordinary power here!
The person most likely to have done this was the young Earl Campbell!
Because a few days ago, there was also a letter from Southwell County, which said that the person he sent had died at the hands of Earl Campbell.
For this purpose, he sent another confidant to South Wales, but the death letter had already been delivered to him.
"Haha, in order to get rid of suspicion, he deliberately followed the second son of Earl Hall back to Backlund."
Drinker Augustus' eyes were filled with murderous intent, and there was a hint of sneer at the corner of his mouth.
In the face of absolute strength, such cleverness is only a way to seek death!
In order to avoid any accidents, he decided to see off the young and promising Earl in person.
As for explanation?
Does he need to explain to anyone?
Even the current King George III would not punish him in the slightest.
The Kingdom of Loen is the kingdom of their Augustus family!
He took out a portrait from the desk drawer. It contained him and his children, although that was decades ago.
At three o'clock in the morning, he walked out of the study and took a step into the bustling Queens.
The distance between the two places is also a rule, and he has already mastered the ability to use the rules.
It was easy to find a road that went straight to Queens. He could even reach the doorstep of Earl Campbell in one step.
But in order to give face to the Three Gods Church, he did not do it so obviously.
So, he chose to walk there from here in Queens.
There are not many pedestrians wandering the streets late at night. Even in the prosperous Queens, many people dare not go out late at night because of the chaotic situation during this period.
Even the bars along the street that used to be open from night to early morning have now closed their doors and closed early for the night.
Drinker Augustus walked and thought about the past years.
He owed his son, but he didn't care too much about it. After all, he didn't care much about the bond of blood inheritance.
But when he really heard the news of his child's death, he still felt a sense of heartache for the first time in a long time.
Although it was a minor offense, it was enough to sentence Earl Campbell to death.
When Drinker Augustus was walking alone and approaching his destination, the scene around him suddenly changed.
Drinker Augustus stopped and watched the scene in front of him calmly and leisurely.
He knew that Earl Campbell must be protected by a powerful extraordinary person.
But this is Backlund, and he is a member of the Augustus family and a Sequence 2 Balancer.
But he waited for a long time, and apart from the scene changing from a bustling street to a dense forest, no one appeared here.
Drinker Augustus narrowed his eyes and waited patiently for a while, but still no one showed up.
"Are you stalling for time in order to escape?"
Drinker Augustus was not worried about this problem. If this wasn't Backlund, with his abilities, he wouldn't need to be so cautious.
He took a step forward with his right foot, and a black rule extended from the sole of his foot, then split into two, four, hundreds, and thousands of lines, crisscrossing like a black python.
The dense forest world before my eyes shattered in an instant and returned to its original street.
He was still standing on the street, but the sky above his head was not filled with the crimson moon of the late night, but with the bright morning sun.
This made him frown slightly, as he did not notice the change in the speed of time even though he was in it.
"No, it's not that the speed of time has changed, but someone has stolen this period of time."
Drink Augustus looked solemn. After carefully sensing for a while, he realized that the other party did not have such great ability. He should have used some kind of seal to achieve this effect.
It's only a few hours, where can you escape to?
Drinker Augustus carefully sensed it and found that Earl Campbell did not take the opportunity to leave Backlund, but was strolling happily near the Holy Wind Church with a little black cat in his arms!
