Chapter 670: Dance
"The Meishen Palace and the Beiwu cultural relics..." Sitting in his chair, Samson listened to Adele's words with an interested look on his face, and then he responded while thinking.
"The things about the Palace of the Goddess of Beauty are easy to understand, but as for the Beiwu cultural relics...ha, I just had guesses before. I didn't expect that you really had a connection with the legendary Cult of the Judge of Heaven. No wonder you were able to tell so many secrets so calmly just now." Samson said. Now he had a general understanding of Adele's resistance to poison just now.
"No wonder you dare to come here alone. It turns out that you have such powerful support. Come to think of it... You are the inheritor of the Path of Desire. If the faith of Heavenly Judge is really revived, it is normal for them to try to contact you for cooperation." Samson continued, but Adele did not focus the topic on the Cult of Heavenly Judge, but continued to emphasize.
"Then, Mr. Archon, can you accept my request?"
Listening to Adele's words, Samson's expression paused slightly, then he thought for a moment and continued speaking.
"Last year, the Order of Heavenly Judge assisted the rebel government of Addus. Fararo once had good interests in Addus, but now it has been destroyed by the rebels. Regarding the overall problem of Northern Ukraine, the Order of Heavenly Judge is regarded as an unstable factor by us. Do you think I will help them?" Samson looked at Adele seriously, while Adele chuckled and spread her hands and spoke.
"Mr. Archon, please don't make a mistake now. Is the biggest problem facing Farajo the colony issue? No, colonies are just a marginal issue for Farajo. Your core problem now lies in the intensification of internal political struggles, the continued brutal interference of the church, and the rampant afterbirth cult in the country... Compared with these problems, the problems of Northern Ukraine are simply not worth mentioning. Please don't forget the secondary nature of conflicts. Although we have frictions in some small aspects, there is room for cooperation in larger aspects."
Adele looked at Samson with a calm expression. After hearing her words, Samson pondered for a moment and then nodded silently.
"Hmm... Cooperation in a larger area is interesting... Tell me, what exactly do you want?"
"What we want is the right to use the Meishen Palace every morning, as well as the information on the various antiquities you have looted from Farajo over the years. It would be best if some rough research results could be attached."
After hearing what Samson said, Adele directly asked for her help. After listening to Adele's words, Samson thought about it seriously and nodded in response after a long silence.
"Sure... I'll arrange it later."
"Thank you for your wisdom, Your Excellency the Archon..." Adele smiled slightly after hearing Samson's answer, then nodded to Samson and performed a Faraso court etiquette slightly.
…
In the distant sky above the Palace of Beauty, the sun that had been hanging in the air finally fell into the horizon. Under the gradually darkening sky, Dorothy's carriage was driving on a small path. She was sitting in the carriage at the moment, using the consultation channel to communicate with Adele who was still in the Palace of Beauty in the distance.
"It seems that the talks went smoothly. This Samson is much easier to talk to than we thought before. He accepted all our proposals." Adele said to Dorothy's followers through the information link, while Dorothy spoke leisurely while sitting in the carriage, swaying slightly.
"After all, we really saved him. These conditions are easy for him to fulfill, so it's normal for him to agree to all of them. However, his straightforwardness was indeed a little beyond my expectations. He only slightly objected to the Heavenly Judge Cult, and didn't say anything about other aspects."
"Oh... So according to your understanding, little detective, what else should Samson object to?" After listening to Dorothy's words, Adele asked curiously again, and Dorothy answered immediately.
"In the public eye of Farajo, this Samson has always appeared as a tough anti-Bourbon, giving people the impression that he is the biggest enemy of Bourbon in Farajo. But this arch-enemy of Bourbon is now so calm and not impatient when he is facing you, who has a very high degree of legitimacy and has inherited the path of lust and can completely become the leader of the Farajo royalist party. It feels a bit surprising."
Dorothy said this to Adele, and Adele, who was far away, was startled after hearing Dorothy's words, and then responded.
"Didn't he say before? His opinion of Bourbon was based on the extraordinary evil events caused by Bourbon's relics in various places in Faraday. Perhaps he didn't have much ill will towards Bourbon himself."
"Just because there is not much malice doesn't mean there is no malice. Did you feel his malice towards you when you talked to him before?" Dorothy asked Adele in return, gnashing her teeth. After listening to Dorothy's words, Adele paused for a moment, then continued speaking.
"It seems... absolutely nothing. However, as the Red Archon of Farajo, I may not be able to fully perceive his desires after I recover my abilities. Who knows, he may have some way to resist my abilities."
"It's really hard to explain things on the extraordinary level right now, but based on my observation, when he was talking to you, neither his tone nor his expression showed any disgust or dissatisfaction. When he mentioned the royalists in Farajo, his tone was more like sarcasm. And when he mentioned the Dressed King, although he expressed his dissatisfaction with him, there was even a hint of sigh in his tone..." Dorothy said to Adele. After listening to Dorothy's words, Adele responded thoughtfully.
"Hearing what you said... it seems to be true. When he mentioned the King of Costumes, that guy even took a special look at the various war items in the Hall of Glory. Hey, little detective, do you think that guy is... No, if that's the case, why would he be so strongly against Bourbon?"
As Adele spoke, she came to a conclusion that surprised her, but soon she began to question it, and at this time Dorothy spoke again.
"Think carefully, the time when Samson began to vigorously oppose the Bourbon coincided with the time when the Afterbirth Cult was rampant in Farajo and vicious illegal incidents were rampant. The purpose of the Afterbirth Cult's activities in Farajo was to collect Bourbon relics to break the path of lust. If we don't want them to succeed, we must collect various Bourbon relics scattered among the people.
"Just imagine, what if Samson's original intention was not to suppress the Bourbon, but to protect the Bourbon? The best way to hinder the afterbirth conspiracy is for the government to step in and collect Bourbon relics on a large scale, focusing on protecting some important descendants. There must be a reason to enforce such a ban. It is obviously inappropriate to say that it is to protect Farajo's cultural heritage. On the one hand, if the reason is too weak, the government's enforcement will not be strong enough. On the other hand, such a reason is likely to arouse suspicion from the church, which has always been on guard against the resurgence of the Bourbon, so it is better to change the reason to the opposite.
"By publicizing the ideological harm left by Bourbon and emphasizing Farajo's revolutionary and contemporary nature, and using the reason of eliminating the Bourbon legacy, Samson can enforce the Bourbon ban from the position of opposing Bourbon, snatch Bourbon relics through brute force searches and afterbirths, and protect those key Bourbon remnants through arrests and surveillance. Under the banner of anti-Bourbon, he fights against afterbirths and protects Bourbones."
