Chapter 359 The Shadow of War
In the blink of an eye, it lasted five days. During these five days, Sean was basically getting familiar with the abilities of the sixth-order strange object, the Laurel of Life.
"Father, is something wrong?"
Walking into the study, looking at Histon, Sean asked a question.
"The person who assassinated Rostand has been found, take a look."
Seeing Sean, Histon handed him a document. Normally speaking, Heston should be happy to have found the murderer who assassinated Rostand. After all, this can divert everyone's attention and reduce Montel's The family was under pressure, but at this moment Sean did not notice the slightest joy in Hison.
"The Mobers? The remnants of the Kingdom of Costa, are they active now?"
Looking at the information in the document, Sean frowned. According to the information in the document, among the three legends who assassinated Rostand this time, one of them was an elder of the Mober people.
The Mober people originated from the dark forest, lived in it for generations, and had little communication with other races in the Old World. In the eyes of many countries in the Old World, the Mober people were not much different from the natives of the New World.
The Kingdom of Costa is a short-lived kingdom. It was established by some Mober people who came out of the dark forest. About 500 years ago, the Kingdom of Sutilt grew stronger and destroyed the Kingdom of Costa. The Montel family Yorkshire, where it is now, was the land of the former Kingdom of Costa.
The Costa Kingdom suffered heavy casualties in the original war of destroying the country. Only a small number of Mobers fled back to the Dark Forest in embarrassment. The Kingdom of Sutilt has formed an inextricable hatred with the Mober people.
In fact, when the Kingdom of Sutilt changed the fiefdom of the Montel family to the current Yorkshire, the original intention was to allow the Montell family to monitor the movement of the Mobers, and at the same time slowly advance, continuously develop the dark forest, and compress the survival of the Mobers. space.
It's just that the Mober people have almost disappeared over the years, and everyone has ignored their existence. They didn't expect that they would become active again at this time, and almost killed the heir of the Kingdom of Sutilt as soon as they appeared.
"The Mobers have been mixed up with the Church of the Nemesis. Is this news accurate?"
Looking at the last piece of information on the document, Xiao En showed a look of surprise on his face. The Church of Nemesis should have disappeared in the long river of history long ago. After all, it has not been found in the Old Continent for a long time. There are no traces of them, but according to the information in the document, the Church of Furies has not disappeared, but has developed well. Almost all Mobers are believers of Furies, which can be regarded as the state religion of the Mobers.
Hearing what Sean said, Histon raised his head and glanced at Sean before speaking:
"The news was just passed by the kingdom's intelligence department. After multiple verifications by them, the credibility is guaranteed."
His voice was low, and when he said this, Histon handed another document to Sean.
Different from the first document, this document is much more formal, and there is a blooming rose flower outlined in gold on the cover, which is the symbol of Sutilt Kingdom.
"This is authorized by the king and issued by the cabinet."
When he said this, Histon's voice was extremely low, and his face was as gloomy as water.
After taking the folder and looking through it carefully, Sean quickly understood the reason for Heston's unhappiness. It was not so much a war authorization letter as it was a call-up order. A lesson for the Arabs requires the active cooperation of the Montel family, which includes the deployment of troops and logistical support.
"Is this the royal family's dissatisfaction with our Montel family?"
After putting down the folder, Sean's expression didn't change much.
"That's what it means. After all, Rostand has a problem with our family's territory, but I'm afraid more people want to see the strength of our Montel family."
take a deep breath,
After calming down his mood, Histon opened his mouth to express his guess. After all, although the royal family called the Montel family this time, they also sent the strongest iron-blooded knights and two new legions with a complete organization. .
"Then what is the meaning of the family?"
While speaking, Sean cast his gaze on Histon.
"Fight, although this war will consume a lot of power for the Montel family, it may not be an opportunity. In the past, the dark forest was a barren land and bad water, and it was not worth the family's effort to develop it. Now that the extraordinary recovery, the dark forest There are many precious products, especially extraordinary resources, which can already be regarded as a gold mine. Before, the family also thought about developing the dark forest, but it was too difficult. With the help of this war, we can just help us clear it. Lots of obstacles."
Speaking of which, there are several different colors in Histon's blue pupils.
Of course, saying so, Sean understands that this is a choice made by the family, because the kingdom is not so easy to take advantage of. When the interests of the dark forest are revealed in front of everyone, how can everyone let go easily? Not to mention that the outcome of this war is uncertain. After all, the Mobers chose to emerge at this time after hiding for so long, and there should be some cards in it, and there is also a church of evil gods involved.
"In this case, I will take action when needed."
Knowing what Heston meant, Sean gave a guarantee.
Hearing this, Histon nodded and shook his head again.
"You are the hope of the family. If it is not necessary, the family will not let you take action this time. This time I came to you not only to tell you these things, but also to obtain your consent to destroy the warship of Pluto. The fort moved to the front."
Hearing this, Sean raised his eyebrows.
"Has the Roots of Oak Research Institute completed the modification of Pluto?"
"With the information you provided, they have completed the modification not long ago, but it will take some time to complete the copy."
Looking at Sean, Histon talked about the research results of the oak root during this period.
Soon after returning to the Montel family, Sean exchanged Pluto, one of the three ancient weapons in the One Piece world, and handed it over to the family's research institute for them to try to modify, manipulate and reproduce it.
"Since I have given things to the family, they will naturally be disposed of by the family, and there is no need to ask for my opinion."
After learning about the research progress of the oak root, Sean gave the answer. To Sean, the ancient weapon Pluto alone is not precious. What is really precious is the technology used to build Pluto. With these technologies, let alone a Pluto is now, two, three, or even ten ships may be constructed.
It's just that it would take time and effort to obtain these technologies by one person's analysis, and it may not be successful. After all, this is not the direction of Xiao En's main attack. Under such circumstances, handing Pluto to the family's research institute is a pretty good choice , not to mention that there is an island ship similar to Hades in his Infernal Gate.
"Okay, since you said that, then I know how to deal with it."
Facing Sean's straightforwardness, Histon did not refuse, it was unnecessary.
