Chapter 278 News From the Covenant City

Starry Sky's work in the Rotten Royal Court is proceeding in an orderly manner.

What Helot is going to do in Claulund Manor is also moving forward step by step. After the investment of Tomorrow Group was started, Hog Town can be said to be different every day. Let all the residents of Hog Town see what money power is, and also see a lot of machines they have never heard of before.

Hog Town has become a large construction site, and everyone here is full of longing for the future.

Along with the investment of Tomorrow Group, there is also news from Covenant City.

Emperor Bradley issued an imperial order through the Imperial Congress. The Glory Oath Empire officially defined the Deep Prison as an evil association and launched an operation to eliminate the Deep Prison throughout the empire. Any individuals and groups who collude with the Deep Prison and shelter members of the Deep Prison will be severely cracked down by the empire.

Covenant City took the lead in launching a vigorous special operation to crack down on the Deep Prison. The Imperial Security Bureau and the Imperial Military Police Bureau jointly conducted a large search in the Covenant City, and at the same time offered a high reward to collect any information related to the Deep Prison.

One after another, the evil deeds committed by the Corpse Stitchers were made public. The residents of the Covenant City were deeply shocked and united by anger.

"The Deep Hell must be destroyed! Anyone who colluded with the Deep Hell must be destroyed!"

The people's will was in the Empire. No one dared to speak for the Deep Hell. They were all afraid of being implicated.

Even the powerful Rust Aristocratic Group did not dare to stand on the opposite side of this wave of public opinion. They were not afraid of ants, but they were afraid of the beasts standing behind the ants.

The evidence of cooperating with the Abyss to develop mechanical corpse puppets was thrown in the faces of the Rust Aristocrats by the Third Prince Terenas.

Some Rust Aristocrats who were kept in the dark realized that Earl Xicom really colluded with the Abyss for eternal life. And it was not just Earl Xicom. There were also a group of people among them who worked for the Deep Hell. The Rust Aristocrats had been kidnapped to the chariot of the rebellion against the Empire.

This noble alliance established after the Blood Rebellion has always been known for its unity. After catching up with the trend of the times, their unity made the Rust Nobles one of the most powerful noble alliances in the Empire. Now, the Rust Nobles have an irreparable rift, and some of them feel betrayed.

They don't know who to trust at this time, even relatives through marriage cannot be trusted.

So a large number of Rust Nobles visited the third prince Terenas and told him that "they absolutely did not collude with the Deep Inferno!"

Terenas also obtained a lot of evidence of the Rust Nobles' corruption and fraud, and illegally embezzled the Empire and other private property by various means.

In order to maintain the image of the nobility, the Empire cannot use collusion with the Deep Inferno as an excuse to deal with the Rust Nobles, but can use these charges to try the nobles to be dealt with. After all, in the public's cognition, greed for wealth is one of the images of the nobility. They have long been accustomed to and accepted such nobles, and they also want to become a member of such nobles.

The Rust Nobles, who no longer trust each other, face the joint law enforcement of the Imperial Gendarmerie and the Imperial Commercial Investigation Bureau, and even the Rust Knights cannot be mobilized. One after another, the Rust nobles were taken away, some were convicted, and some were promoted.

The third prince Terenas showed a skill that he had never shown before, and he quickly and cleanly ate the Rust nobles, leaving no chance for others to share.

Even many people were attracted to the search and elimination of the Deep Hell, and did not pay attention to the personnel transfer of the Imperial Heavy Industry Committee. By the time they noticed it, Terenas had already taken the Rust nobles, a powerful noble alliance, into his pocket.

Even if there were still some nobles who had ties with the Deep Hell that had not been found, they could no longer interfere with Terenas' control over the Rust nobles.

In addition to the news sent by Melissa and Angelica, the Gray Light Society also sent news.

The Deep Hell suffered a great loss in this attack, and the corpse king was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. If it were not for the intervention of the prisoner, he would have issued a killing order for Helot.

But even without a formal order, the entire Deep Hell still regarded Helot as a target that must be eliminated.

It's just that the Deep Hell is now running around in a mess, and has no time to deal with this thorn in the eye.

Another piece of news is the "recipients" that the mummy Gumu contacted. This group of gravekeepers was quite wary of Gumu, but they still accepted the funding from Gumu. The "recipients" were indeed short of money, and their strength was much weaker than expected. They were able to cause great losses to the Deep Prison, mainly because they knew the Deep Prison well and caught the corpse-stitchers off guard.

The subsequent attacks were not as effective as at the beginning. If the Empire had not started a comprehensive attack on the Deep Prison, the "recipients" might have been beaten very badly.

Now that the "recipients" have money, they can better improve their own strength.

Moreover, the first batch of mummies have been introduced by Gumu and accepted by the "recipients" on a trial basis.

In short, the "recipients" are very vigilant, but they have to accept funding.

This is a bit like the Deep Prison being controlled step by step by the prisoner, which has increased the vigilance of the "recipients".

Therefore, Gumu hoped that Helot could meet with the leader of the "Order-taker". Given the status of the Claulund family in the hearts of the gravekeepers, it would not be easy to take the "Order-taker" into his pocket.

Helot asked the Gray Light Society ghost who came to deliver the message to go back and tell Gumu.

Whether the ordained can be accepted by the Claulund family still needs to be tested. Moreover, some of the existing gravekeepers are branches of the Claulund family. If they openly control the "ordained", it will have a great impact on its structure.

In Helot's eyes, the "ordained" are not mature enough, and they need more self-adjustment. Its ending is either a flash in the pan and soon perish, or it continues to grow and eventually becomes the home of the gravekeeper. Excessive intervention by external forces has no positive effect on this toddler team, not to mention that they are entangled with so many major forces, and falling on the "ordained", they can directly break their bones.

"Ordained" should fight guerrilla warfare with the deep prison at this stage, hiding behind the scenes to transport ammunition, and can keep it alive.

Whether they can be accepted by the Claulund family in the end still needs their own strength.

The threshold of the Claulund family is high. You are not allowed to come in just because you are called a gravekeeper.

In this way, Helot lived a semi-secluded life in Hog ​​Town. His busy work all day seemed to be to decorate the Claulund Manor Hotel, and all other things were left to Reinham.

A month passed like this.

Until a royal guard brought an order from Emperor Bradley, requiring Helot Claulund to go to the Covenant City immediately.
