Chapter 631 Link
Lord Hughes slowly lowered his head in the armchair, and somewhere far away, another body opened its eyes.
The first thing Zeus saw was the big hole in his chest. He had actually long been accustomed to this wound that no longer bleeds, but after talking with the prince, looking at the wound that killed him, he suddenly felt a little more emotional.
"If there hadn't been the Candlelight Society, and it had been the Queen's men who came to find me, I would have been recognized by the upper echelons thanks to my work improving bearings. I might have been a civil servant of several ranks now, perhaps even working for Alexei."
"Or maybe if I had successfully organized the workers and established some kind of organization, and then caught Isabella's eye, then maybe the queen wouldn't have had to endure such a dramatic assassination."
"Unfortunately, without so many ifs, Candlelight would have pushed me all the way to this point."
The prince wants to go to war with the Candlelight Society, but if it weren't for the prince, Castel would eventually fight the church.
Even if Hughes chose to develop, it was not because he was resisting war, but because it was more cost-effective. If you ask what Hughes himself thought—
Zeus looked at the big hole in his chest, his eyes gradually turning cold.
Blood debt must be repaid with blood.
After a long time, Xius looked down at his hands, then saw the white mist around him and took a deep breath.
"Let's contact Miss Beatrice first. Before we knew it, she has become the ruler of the Empire and the Church, albeit in name only."
The last time I saw Tris, she was just a young girl who had just become a transcendent, with a green face.

"The white mist hasn't dissipated yet. It seems like we still haven't dealt with Little Gwen."
"It's not even time for my appointment with little Gwen yet, so let's not bother her for now."
"Although I tried it before and it didn't work. Well, let's try again."
Ever since the body of the worker Zeus inexplicably came into the white fog, Zeus has never been able to successfully establish a connection again.
Soon, Hughes found the silk threads of Beatrice, Gwen, Ken, Jeremiah, and Zoe, and after thinking for a while, he put Gwen's back.
He did not establish a link immediately, but first tried to sense Beatrice's presence.
It is very difficult to sense the other party's condition through the silk thread. It is usually good enough to sense the approximate direction.
But this time, Xiu Si gradually frowned.
"Why do I feel a little closer? Is it the influence of the white mist?" After thinking about it, Hughes pulled Jeremiah's silk thread and lowered his head to sense it for a while.
"Strange, only Beatrice's has changed. Maybe she has indeed changed."
"Never mind, let's try to establish a link first."
Xiusi gathered the silk threads together, then tied the threads of several people into a knot and tried to pull it.
The silk thread went far away diagonally upwards, and no one knew where it led to.
It still had the same sluggish feel as before, and the silk thread didn't move at all.
"It seems that it still doesn't work. Forget it. I guess this won't work." Zeus supported his chin with his hand, frowned and began to think.
Just when he was about to give up and start to return, his hands suddenly trembled.
No, it was the silk threads that trembled and lifted his hands.
Hughes' eyes widened.
fries:"?"
French Fries: "Wait, am I right? It's connected again?"
French Fries: "Wow, it's actually connected."
captain:"."
French Fries: "Captain! It really worked!"
French Fries: "Hahaha, this link hasn't appeared in over a year. I thought I'd never see you again!"
French Fries: "Gwen? Scepter? Writer? Are you all still here?"
Writer: "I am here."
French Fries: "Great, great, has Miss Writer written a novel yet?"
writer:"."
Writer: "No, no."
Captain: "Well, we can talk about these things later. Didn't you notice that the scepter and Gwen are gone?"
French Fries: "Yes, yes, I haven't seen little Gwen in a while. I don't think we talked the last time, but she would answer when I called her. But not this time. The same goes for Miss Scepter."
Writer: "I remember Miss Wands mentioned last time that she was in some trouble and had to take some risks. Could it be..."
Xius also remembered this incident.
Before, I didn't know Beatrice's identity, and I thought it was a fight among the upper nobility. Now I think that since Beatrice was pushed out to be the Pope, she must be completely controlled by the church. If she takes risks,
Zeus remembered the letter sent to him. Beatrice has now become the new empress of the empire. It seems that whether she chooses to resist or escape, she has failed.
Where would Beatrice be now? Logically, she should be trapped in the Rhine.
I remember Isaac said that the Ash Alliance already has some channels in the Empire and has even infiltrated the Rhine.
Maybe we can contact Isaac?
However, this matter must be extremely dangerous. After all, Beatrice's identity is there. Even if she is just a puppet, she is a puppet standing in the center of the stage.
And seeing that she has not spoken, perhaps
Scepter: 『.』
writer:"!!!"
fries:"!!!"
captain:"!!!"
French Fries: "I, am I right, is that Miss Wands? Miss Wands, you're here too? What's wrong with you?"
Writer: "Ms. Scepter, I have contacted some forces and may be able to provide you with some assistance. How are you doing?"
Scepter: 『^^』
writer:"?"
Scepter: "#￥**Ｙ＃＠）＆＠! ￥％～＃＃"
Writer: "Uh, Miss Scepter?"
Scepter: "*#&……@*#@&@! !"
Writer: "Is there something wrong on my end? Why can't I understand what she's saying?"
French Fries: "Uh, I don't understand either. What is this? Some foreign language? Imperial language?"
Captain: "We're speaking Imperial English now. The common language is actually Imperial English. Oddly enough, I don't understand what she's saying. I know most of the mainland languages, and I also know a few words of the strangely accented Southern Continental dialect, but she's not speaking any of that."
Scepter: "#&%#*（@……￥&#@……~"
French Fries: "Ms. Scepter, can you understand what we are saying? If you can, just cough."
Scepter: 『#）*&&#……！@』
Writer: "I feel something is wrong. If you listen carefully, the sounds she makes don't seem to be a language. In a normal language, there are always some words that are repeated frequently, but I feel that each tone she makes is subtly different."
French Fries: "You mean"
Writer: "She didn't seem to be speaking, but rather mumbling meaninglessly, or wailing."
