"Do you know the identity of the powerful vampire you mentioned? Lord Yorock, please forgive Adast for reminding you again that the strength of a vampire who can make you feel threatened will probably not be lower than that of a legend, and such a being, even if Even the gods will take it seriously."
"If that powerful vampire really has the power of the gods behind him, and if the Castel Territory really comes into the sight of the gods...then that powerful vampire is likely to be a dependent of the gods, and our observation will also be It will be fruitless like just now.”
"After all... the current Star Observation and Divination no longer has the power of Kexi Mian to support it."
"Not only that, if Guanzhan receives the attention of the god behind the scenes, he may even set his sights on us."
"Sir Yorock, what gods hate most is for mortals to spy on their secrets. You don't want to rush into the sight of a strange god, right?"
Adaste, the weapon spirit of the Star Crystal, had a serious voice.
After listening to its words, Duke Yorock gradually calmed down and fell into silence.
After a moment, he sighed softly and said:
"You are right, I was impulsive, but when I think about the sudden crisis that has been planned for many years, I can't calm down..."
Adaste is right.
One must be cautious when it comes to matters involving gods.
Otherwise, you may put yourself in great danger.
Maybe... I should temporarily suspend the return plan, at least temporarily suspend the infiltration of Castel, and wait until further investigation before making any plans.
Duke Yorock thought.
"Your Excellency Yorok, this is not your fault. Adaste knows how much you attach importance to the Return to the Star Plan. After all, it involves the future of the Ness clan, the orders of the Council of Elders to you, and also the matters of Your Excellency Eugenia. Safety... Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"Wait a minute...the result of the observation has changed!"
"The results of the observation have changed?!"
Duke Yorock was slightly startled.
Star divination results generally last for a period of time, but it is rare to hear of divination results suddenly changing.
Unless the observer did something that affected the content of the observation.
Duke Yorock looked solemn and asked quickly:
"What changed?"
"What has changed is the fate of the main star and the path of the slave star... Well, that is, the fate of you and the Ness clan. Although it is still dark and unclear, it is not shrouded in darkness like just now. Not only that... the main star and the destiny star seem to be on the same page. Between darkness and light, on one side is the starry abyss of annihilation that represents destruction, and on the other side is the boundless sea of stars full of hope!"
Adaste's voice was full of surprise:
"Sir Yorock, what did you just do? Not to mention the main star and the slave star, even the future of the return star plan seems to have changed! Although hope is still slim, a ray of starlight appears in the starry sky!"
What did I just do?
Duke Yorock frowned.
As if he thought of something, his heart suddenly jumped:
Wait... Could it be that I just planned to temporarily suspend the idea of infiltrating Castells?
Thinking of this, Duke Yorock suddenly felt as if he had caught something, and a bright light seemed to flash in his mind.
"Adaste, hurry up! Help me immediately to figure out what is the opportunity for the Ness clan to realize their return plan and survive the crisis of the Holy Advent!"
Duke Yorock ordered in a rapid voice while taking out various magic materials to arrange the star array.
"I will obey your order..."
The starlight spread again, and the dome of the quiet room projected an endless sea of stars.
Soon, Adaste's surprised voice came over:
"Huh?"
"how?"
Duke Yorock asked quickly.
"Weird! It's really weird! It was clearly revealed when I was watching the return to the star plan, but this time I watched the Ness clan's opportunity to break the situation, and the result was blank like just now..."
Duke Yorock's eyes flashed slightly:
"Blank? Are you sure that the result of observation is blank?"
"Yes, Lord Yorock, I'm afraid we have come into contact with some kind of power again... There seems to be something blocking my observation, maybe..."
"Maybe... it's the power of the gods!"
Duke Yorok's eyes moved slightly and he said the second half of Adaste's unfinished sentence.
His eyes gradually brightened, and his spirit visibly perked up.
"Adaste, thank you very much. If you can survive the crisis this time, I will definitely ask for credit for you when I awaken His Majesty Kesi!"
"Huh? Lord Yorok, have you thought of something? I can see from your expression that you seem to have suddenly gained confidence... Could it be that you already know what is the opportunity for the clan to break the situation?"
Adaste asked curiously.
Duke Yorock shook his head:
"I have no idea."
But as he spoke, he changed the topic again:
"But... I already know where the opportunity to break the situation lies, or rather... who it is related to!"
"You mean...Castle?"
Adaste asked.
"That's right."
Duke Yorock nodded slightly, his eyes twinkling.
Adaste's observation results were blank twice in a row, which was probably blocked by the same force.
His first failure was to predict Castel's future, while his second failure to predict was an opportunity for the Ness clan to break the situation.
If these two observations were done individually, it would be confusing, but looking at them together at this moment, the answer is already obvious...
I'm afraid the key to the Ness clan's defeat lies elsewhere, but in Castel!
Thinking of the time when the results of the first observation changed, Duke Yorok's eyes flashed slightly.
Maybe...he misjudged something from the beginning!
"Adaste, I heard that you went through the entire process of the Thousand-Year Holy War?"
"Yes, it was really an extremely dark war. Adast watched helplessly as the heyday descendants of the blood fell apart and retreated one after another under the iron heel of the Holy Royal Court... The fallen dukes and earls were even more incompetent, and even The princes and princes have all changed because of this. I have to say that it is a blessing for an existence like you to fall into deep sleep..."
"Stop talking nonsense and just answer my questions!"
"Well...yeah, I went through the whole process."
"Did the God of Contract also become the Lord and Servant of God during that time?"
"Yes."
“What is His relationship to our blood descendants?”
"Of course it is a hostile state. As a loyal supporter of the God Lord, the God of Contract has participated in the Millennium Holy War throughout the whole process. He and our blood descendants can be described as being incompatible with each other. In fact, even the "Wedel Treaty" and the "Korea Peace Treaty" "The contract believers within the Holy Royal Court are extremely opposed to the signing of the contract. After all... the bloodline way of the descendants of blood has taken away part of the contract authority."
Duke Yorock's eyes flashed slightly and he nodded slightly:
"I see."
"Your Excellency Yorok, do you still need to do the last viewing? Although you have failed twice in a row, this is just an unfortunate accident. Adast's level of viewing is definitely not that bad. Give Adast another chance, Adast Ste will definitely..."
"No, that's enough. I will naturally summon you again when needed."
Duke Yorock waved his hand and removed the decorations around the crystal pedestal.
"Well, okay, thank you for your use. The wise Adaste is always ready to help you with your observation again..."
As Adaste rambled on, Duke Yorok quickly put away the crystal ball.
This holy weapon spirit is good at everything, but once he starts talking, he can't stop, making people's brains buzz.
Putting away the crystal ball, Duke Yorock paced in the quiet room and fell into thought.
The conversation with Adaste made him realize again some details that he had ignored before, and the most obvious one was the relationship between the God of Contract and the Descendants of Blood.
Since the God of Contract and the Blood Descendants are at odds with each other due to power issues, how could the God of Contract accept a Blood Descendant as a dependent?
Not to mention, that could very well be a legend.
And even if he was really adopted as a kinsman, the attitude of the powerful vampire he saw did not seem to be that of a contracted believer who was extremely disgusted with blood descendants!
Not only that, carefully recalling the brief exchange between myself and that powerful vampire, the other party seemed to have never expressed faith in the God of Contract. Even when he asked about the will of the Holy Royal Court, the other party remained silent.
Now think about it, maybe I made a mistake from the beginning, or maybe the other party is not a believer of the God of Contract at all!
"It is not accurate to only rely on the marks of faith to identify one's position... It is rumored that in human civilization there were legendary mages who created blasphemous magic and stole the power of gods. Maybe what I saw is not necessarily true. "
"Perhaps that powerful vampire is just using his identity as a believer of the God of Contract to act!"
Thinking of this, Duke Yorock's heart suddenly became enlightened.
And then, he thought of more things:
"The Star Observation is covered up. It is possible that there really is the power of a god behind her, but this god... is probably not the God of Contract."
"He is not the God of Contract, but he is pretending to be the God of Contract. It seems that the relationship between the other party and the Holy Royal Court is also very subtle!"
"Could it be...that it's an ancient god that has resurrected?"
"So, the new Earl of Castel is probably a follower of this mysterious god!"
"I think... I already know what the opportunity is to break the situation."
Thinking of this, Duke Yorock stopped.
He quickly came to the magic table and took out another slightly smaller crystal ball from the storage space.
He placed the crystal ball on the crystal stand again, and then recited the incantation silently. Gradually, crimson light bloomed on the crystal ball, and a blurry projection appeared from the crystal ball.
"Lord Yorok, what are your orders?"
The blurry projection asked respectfully.
"Yulst, what mission has Lachlan been performing these past two days?"
Duke Yorock asked.
The blurry projection quickly replied:
"Lord Yorock, I am preparing to report to you on this matter. Lachlan is conducting the final infiltration of Castel. If it goes well, we will be able to completely control Castel tomorrow!"
Duke Yorock was stunned:
"Completely taking control of Castel? So...he took action against the new Earl of Castel?"
"Yes, the Earl of Castells is hosting a dinner at the Earl's Palace tonight, which is very suitable for carrying out the final infiltration plan. Calculating the time... the men sent by Lachlan should have already started taking action."
Duke Yorock:…
The blood legend's face suddenly turned green:
"Yulst! Notice immediately! Suspend all infiltration into Castel! Stop all hostile actions against Castel!"
The blurry figure was stunned for a moment:
"Suspension of the infiltration of Castel? Lord Yorock, we are about to successfully control Castel, why do we have to stop suddenly?"
Duke Yorock sighed:
"Yulst, please pay more attention to the Falling Star Project. Don't always indulge in those bottles of yours. If this continues, I'm really worried that one day the enemies will come to the door and you still don't know anything. of."
"Hmm... Lord Yorock, have our actions alerted the Holy Royal Court? I will contact Lord Lachlan immediately and tell him to suspend the operation."
"No need to contact him, he is dead."
"Dead...dead?!"
The blurry figure in the crystal ball is frightened
A jump.
"Yes, dead."
Duke Yorock sighed softly, his eyes dim and unclear.
"Lord Yorock, do you want to report this matter to the Presbyterian Council immediately? The fall of an earl is not a small problem, let alone Earl Lachlan is still a member of the Presbyterian Council..."
the blurry projection asked.
Duke Yorock's eyes flashed slightly and he shook his head slightly:
"No need, I will explain it to the Presbyterian Council."
"Okay... okay, but Mr. Lachlan has always been in charge of the Earl of Castel. I don't know how many blood descendants he has developed. It may take a certain amount of time to take over. It was chaotic for a while..."
Duke Yorock:…
"No matter what method is used, next... I don't want to see any of our people secretly take action against the nobles of Castel, especially the earl of Castel in recent times! Not even one case!"
he ordered sharply.
"Okay...Okay, then I will contact the Earl of Nottingham as soon as possible. He is currently in charge of the Roman Principality, which is closest to Castel and the most convenient to take over."
The blurry figure said hurriedly.
Duke Yorock nodded slightly:
"Can."
"Do you have any other instructions?"
the blurry figure asked respectfully.
Duke Yorock thought for a while and said:
"One more thing... I order you to use all available resources to secretly investigate the background of the current Earl of Castells. Within a week, I want to know all the information about her!"
…
"Ahshee——!"
In the Earl's Mansion in North Port, Charlotte, who had finished the banquet, took off her coat and put on her nightgown under the service of the maid, and sneezed unexpectedly.
She looked at the closed window suspiciously, rubbed her nose, and said to herself:
"How do you feel... as if someone was spying on me just now?"
Picking up the hot sweet milk on the table and drinking it in one gulp, Charlotte thought for a while, walked to the window and pulled the curtains tighter.
