Chapter 1269 Secret

In the barracks of the First Legion, the news that the Duke of Aquitaine became the interim head of the legion had already arrived, and everyone already knew that Li Huailin was their boss now, not Karcelos here. The handling of the First Legion was also handled by Li Huailin, which made everyone a little worried.

In fact, everyone is very afraid of Li Huailin. Before that, Li Huailin alone frightened 90,000 of them. To be honest, if Karl Selos hadn't ordered them to go back suddenly, they might have fled back by themselves. It can be seen They were so afraid of Li Huailin, and now they didn't expect their fate to be in Li Huailin's hands again, so how could they not be worried.

As far as the soldiers of the First Legion were concerned, they hoped that their acting commander would be Karcelos. After all, Karcelos and the others knew each other very well, so they probably wouldn’t really deal with them. But Li Huailin is not necessarily, this guy is the million-dollar duke.

In any case, Li Huailin and Karcelos walked into the main tent, as if they were discussing something, and all the soldiers surrounded them. Everyone thought that the two were discussing the results of the First Legion, but in fact , What the two people were talking about was not this matter at all.

"Okay, what exactly are you going to tell me?" Li Huailin asked.

Karcelos seems to be a little hesitant. Although it has been decided, this matter is a bit too involved, but after thinking about it, I still want to say that I only hope to be able to convince Li Huailin: "My lord, this matter is very serious. It's amazing, and the people involved may surprise you too, so please prepare yourself mentally."

"Psychological preparation?" Li Huailin smiled casually. In fact, he basically already knew everything, so what psychological preparation is needed, the most important thing now is to ask Karcelos if he knows the whereabouts of the last piece of secret treasure.

"Yes." Karcelos nodded, "Because this matter involves His Royal Highness Anthony..."

"Oh? Such a big thing." Li Huailin nodded, "Okay, tell me, what happened to Anthony?"

"Before I do that, I would like to confess my identity," Karcelos said.

"Identity?" Li Huailin looked surprised.

"Yes. My current name is Karl Selos, but it's not my real name. My original name was Carl Guitarera." Karl Selos, the Earl of Guitarera, said.

System prompt: trigger hidden s-level missions, find the missing person to complete.

System prompt: You lost 500,000 experience,

51540 gold coins. Reputation point 1500, please go to the rich merchant to receive special rewards.

The Earl Guitarella here has just finished speaking, and the system prompt on Li Huailin's side jumped out. Of course, the task here is to let them find the Earl Guitarera. Now the other party admits his identity, which means finding Yes, of course the task is accomplished. Li Huailin was also deducted 500,000 experience and more than 50,000 gold coins (because the money needs to be shared with 5 people), and almost emptied all his money, but Li Huailin didn't care, because there is no shortage of money for the time being .

System message: You have a remote call access.

Li Huailin looked at the system message. Sure enough, there were more than one remote call looking for him. Of course, they were all the other teammates who received the mission. Now they should have completed the mission. I guess I'm going to ask myself what's going on. Li Huailin thought for a while, and connected the call to summon the Jade Emperor.

"Summoning, I completed the task here. I just found this Earl Guitalera, but there is something here, you can talk to them first. I will talk to you after I finish here." Li Huailin said simply.

"Okay, I understand." Summoning Jade Emperor also nodded immediately, and then hung up the remote immediately.

"Carl Guitalera?" Li Huailin looked a little surprised. Continue to talk to Gitalera here, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere."

"Yes, in fact, I was an earl of the empire." Gitalera said.

"Hey? That means you changed your name? What's so strange? What does it have to do with Anthony?" Li Huailin asked.

"This matter started sixteen years ago." Guitarera said, "I was only eighteen years old at the time, and I hadn't inherited the title of Count Guitarera. I was just a researcher in the Royal Library at that time. By chance, I found a gemstone. This gemstone is very mysterious. It is said that it has something to do with the Protoss and the legendary chosen one. It is said that the church calls this kind of stone a secret treasure, and this stone has a Special ability, on the one hand, it can enhance the ability of the Chosen One, on the other hand, he can cause strange mutations in creatures other than the Chosen One."

"I know that. In fact, I actually got a few pieces of this gem." Li Huailin said suddenly.

"Really?" Guitalera was taken aback for a moment, "Then the Duke must be careful, this thing is actually a trap."

"Trap?" Li Huailin was taken aback for a moment, because Malina also said the same thing, "What's going on?"

"I found records about this in the basic ancient books. According to these few words, my calculation at the time was that collecting all these gems might give you a very huge power, maybe the power of the gods. That's what I thought at the time Yes, so I started to collect these gems, but unfortunately I was wrong, this is not the case at all." Guitalera said.

"That's it?" Li Huailin asked.

"I'll explain this later, let's talk about the important things first." Guitalera said, "Because I started collecting gems at that time, I found His Royal Highness Anthony who hadn't left the imperial capital at that time."

Li Huailin really wants to tell him that the secret treasure is the most important thing, Li Huailin doesn't want to hear other things at all, but he can't listen to it first before saying: "Why are you looking for him?"

"Because I found out that a gem was collected by the Murat family. At that time, Marshal Morfas had been guarding the frontier, so I found Anthony who stayed in the main city." Gitalera said.

"I see." Li Huailin nodded, "Then you told him about it?"

"Yes." Gitalera nodded, "Actually, I didn't think so much at the time, and it wasn't my original intention to gain great power. I was actually just curious about these gems. See Anthony was very concerned at the time, so I told him all my findings, but obviously he cared very much."

"Hmm." Li Huailin nodded, "That means Anthony wanted to collect these gems and sent you to find them?"

"It's not just me, but Queen Marina, the three of us started looking for these gems," Gitalera said.

"Empress Malina is also involved?" Li Huailin sounded very surprised, as if he had heard about it for the first time.

"Yes, Queen Marina and Anthony have been engaged since childhood, and they have always been very close. Anthony also said before that Marina is someone he trusts very much, so he asked Marina to participate in this matter. "Gittalera said, "We were looking for these gems for a while after that. I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just searched for gems with Anthony and the others. thing."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Li Huailin asked immediately.

"At that time, I was already eighteen years old. Don't you find it strange that this young man is still working as a researcher in the main city?" Guitarera said.

"Strange?" Li Huailin was taken aback for a moment, "Where is it strange?"

"Generally, the heirs of the nobility have to join the army at the age of fifteen, because the empire stipulates that if they want to inherit the title, they must have at least a corresponding number of years to join the army. Generally speaking, an earl must join the army for at least three years. According to this standard, I should have joined the army back then. But in fact I haven’t been to the army yet, of course it’s not that I don’t want to go, it’s that I...my father.” Gitalera mentioned that his father still looked a little grumpy, with a low face Li Huailin couldn't quite understand his attitude towards his father, but the expression was a bit complicated.

"Your father won't let you join the army? Is he not going to let you inherit the title?" Li Huailin asked.

"It can only be inferred like this." Guitalera said, "At that time, I begged my father to allow me to join the army, but I was still rejected. Of course I was not reconciled, so I also thought of a way at the time, which was to discuss it with Anthony... ..."

"Because he is the son of Marshal Morfas of the First Legion and also your father's boss, so you want him to help you, right?" Li Huailin asked.

"Yes." Guitalera nodded immediately, "Of course it was also because of Marina, who was still the princess of the empire at the time, and I thought she could help, but I only found out after asking... I didn't expect us The three of them actually encountered the same situation..."

"I've heard of this." Li Huailin said, "The former King Rein patriarchal, only cared about the prince, and sent Marina to work in the intelligence department to prevent him from participating in royal affairs. Anthony's father, Marshal Morfas, did not Do you like Anthony?"

"Yes." Guitarera nodded, "Although Anthony has never said it, I think the reason is...he is jealous of his son."

"Oh?" Li Huailin smiled, "So the three of you who are also in the same situation came together..."

"Yes, the three of us got together and discussed a major event that will never be made public..." Gitalera said with his head down, "In simple terms, it is... killing parent treaty.” (to be continued)
