Chapter 341 Trust or Not
Marquis Alke was the tenth marquis of the empire. He was the youngest marquis with the shortest tenure. He was also the grandfather of the knight girl Alyssa.
The news announced by the Imperial Royal Family was that he disappeared after exploring the forbidden zone of life.
But according to the personal intelligence sources of these marquises, Alke did not take the initiative to explore the forbidden zone of life, but was chased by a powerful person and was forced into it because he had no way to escape.
You know, no matter how weak the Marquis of the Empire is, he is still a ninth-level strongman who has mastered the rules. A "mysterious strongman" who is powerful enough to hunt down the Marquis of Alk is also powerful enough to hunt down them.
As for the true identity of the "mysterious strong man", there have been many speculations among the many marquises, but no one dared to speak out.
The situation he is facing now involves a very delicate issue: When it comes to the interests of the ruins, are the four major families trustworthy?
Marquis Winter had thought about taking the initiative to test the attitudes of the four major families to see what they really thought.
But after some thought, he finally gave up this option.
According to the secret information he obtained from a high-level prophet at a huge cost: This time, the things hidden in the ruins are secrets related to transcending the ninth level limit! The authenticity of this news has been verified by special magic and is indeed true.
And if even he could get this news, the four major families and the imperial family that were more powerful than him would definitely receive this news as well.
It has been too long since there have been any legends on this continent.
Faced with the temptation of breaking through the ninth-level natural barrier, even though the people from the four major families told him clearly that they would not take action against him or any marquis.
But does he dare to believe it?
Conversely, the same is true for the four major families.
Marquis Winter asked himself, if he were in the shoes of the four major families, he would not really take action against these marquises as "Zero" said.
However, we will definitely keep a close eye on these unstable factors and secretly intervene when necessary to prevent them from obtaining the secrets hidden in the ruins first.
In other words, the probability of people from the four major families attacking him is not high, but if there are any unexpected discoveries in the ruins, it may not be his turn.
The ninth level of the Enoch family paid attention to him in order to monitor him and create trouble for him at critical moments.
The more Marquis Winter analyzed, the more he felt that this should be the real fact.
"snort……"
Marquis Winter snorted in his heart as he glanced at the ninth-level spellcaster of the Enoch family in the distance.
After all, he is also a ninth-level cultivator. As long as he does not make any unusual moves, Marquis Winter believes that the four major families will not break off relations with him.
But this involves another question. Is he willing to give up the temptation of breaking through the ninth level? Is he going to watch the four major families and the royal family obtain the secret of the ruins, and then break through the ninth level, and always be oppressed by them? ! With this thought in his mind, a trace of haze flashed across the dark red eyes of the Marquis Winter.
Like most ninth-level professionals, he also has the bloodline of a rare ninth-level ocean monster, the Blood-Eyed Mosasaur, famous for his ability to control thunderstorms and ocean whirlpools.
But at the same time, the powerful blood of Warcraft was also subtly influencing his character, making him cold and stubborn, and not allowing any offense.
It seems that relying on one's own strength, there is no hope of getting hold of the ruins.
Well, it's time to connect with those 'colleagues'.
Maybe their relationship was ordinary, but now they had a common enemy.
As he thought about it, Marquis Winter couldn't help but touch the inconspicuous ring on his little finger with his left hand behind his back.
This ring was sent by Marquis Draka's men. It can be used to communicate with each other over long distances without being detected by outsiders.
However, the person who sent him the ring was also a stranger.
Although he was not in the same camp as the divisive 'Zero', Marquis Winter still did not like these strangers.
Although they came from a distant continent that sank into the Endless Sea, he always felt that these people were like two completely different races from them.
With one last glance at the ninth level of the Itel family who was secretly watching his movements from a distance, Marquis Winter turned and left.
At the same time, his fingers gently rubbed the ring at a specific frequency, sending out a special signal.
At the same time, in a tavern in a small city on the edge of the crater, Ling, who was dressed in a black robe, suddenly paused with the wine glass in his hand and looked at the panel beside him.
At the top of the panel task menu, the status of a certain S-level task to be completed, which was ranked first, suddenly updated again.
The number of people who have been won over has increased from zero to one.
People are always more willing to believe the conclusions they come to through "rational analysis" than what others tell them directly.
However, the so-called analysis can also be guided.
"Oh--"
Glancing at the status bar on the panel, which showed a long list of various hidden surveillance effect statuses, Zero showed a smile that was meaningless and a bit contemptuous.
During this period of time, he lingered among many nobles and their descendants in the empire. Although no one really attacked him, it was inevitable that some surveillance magic would be secretly placed on him.
However, this was meaningless to him. Not to mention that he couldn't monitor the game panel, if he really needed to clear these states, he only needed to die once and then revive.
Putting down the wine glass casually, he called out the pigeon system and briefly sorted out the mission and plot progress report, ready to send it to the people in the club.
"The task of winning over the marquis has just made some progress. The panel does not show which marquis it is, but judging from the personality models of several marquises, 70% is Marquis Winter and 20% is Marquis Reg."
'Next, if more than five marquises form a tacit alliance, it will be enough to pose a real threat to the four major families. The Door in the Eye will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, and the situation in the ruins will be turbulent.
While the ruins are attracting the attention of most of the high-level people, arrange personnel as soon as possible to join the rebel camp, and make sure to choose the "regular" rebels.
Taking advantage of this good opportunity at the beginning, try to concentrate resources on one person, gain a higher position in the resistance army, and strive to obtain the authority to lead troops independently, which will be very useful in the future.'
'I will continue to guide the situation at the Gate of the Eye. With these achievements, the leader will definitely value me more.
Next, I should be able to initially call upon the resources of the Gate of the Eyes to try to further influence the internal situation of the empire.'
After finishing the letter, Ling leaned back in his chair and relaxed. He casually folded the system's virtual letter and put it into the container on the pigeon's leg.
I am delivering information in front of you, can you see it? Then, Zero's mind moved slightly, and the high-level carrier pigeon carrying the written letter quickly disappeared into the void.
"Boss, another cup of 'God's Dream'."
Putting two gold coins on the table, Ling picked up the wine glass again, shook the light blue wine in the glass with a misty look, and then drank it all in one gulp.
To be honest, he likes this world more and more.
Although it is just a virtual world, it is also very real——
However, Zero, who was in a good mood, didn't think of this.
He had a surveillance spell from someone and could indeed see the game panel.
