The letter from Colombia was just a trivial matter. After reading it, Tracy put the letter aside.
Although this man seized power and usurped the throne, he was still a responsible and good monarch.
He is thinking hard about Kazdaele's strength and the consolidation of his own position.
At least, he is serious about handling government affairs.
He saw that the hour hand of the small pendulum clock on the table had moved a quarter of the way before he stopped the pen in his hand.
Most of the stacked government documents have been processed, leaving only some trivial matters that are not so important at the end.
Traces decided to rest first and wait until he gets up tomorrow before continuing.
"Alici."
Trixis felt a little hungry, so she called out the name of the head maid. The empty study room was very bright, and the voice sounded in the silent space, but it soon fell silent, but nothing happened.
Tracy frowned a little. The head maid was usually on call at any time. As long as he called, she would come over quickly.
For example, at this time, the other party should quickly open the door and ask what his orders are.
"Did you go to the toilet? It seems that there is indeed a need to increase the number of maids in the inner castle."
Tracy sighed and took two steps, but her body suddenly stiffened.
He found that there was a shadow under his feet at some point, or that it was already on the ground before he walked over. It seemed that there was something behind it, blocking the light of the Source Stone lamp on the wall.
But in the study, next to the table where he handles government affairs, is there really anything like this that blocks the light?
Especially at the front end, there was the shape of a shadow of a human-shaped head. Traces stared, but he could clearly see that the shadow head was making neck-twisting movements on the ground.
"It seems that your government affairs have been processed, but you have kept me waiting for a long time."
Tracy turned around stiffly. Her face was similar to Theresia's, but with a more masculine look. In the movie, she looked like a cool guy.
But now this cool man, even with a poker face, Wu Ke could tell from his words that this man was a little nervous.
"Who are you and how did you get in? Where are the guards?"
"I am SB, I flew in openly. As for the guards, if you refer to the guards of this castle, then I think they have gone to bed early tonight.
Yes, the kind where I knock them all out and tie them up while you are seriously handling the government affairs on the table.
So, if you want to yell, feel free to do so. Anyway, no one will answer you even if you yell to break your throat. I can guarantee this. "
Wu Ke walked to the warm seat where the other party had just left and sat down at the main seat. He pointed to the opposite side and motioned for the other party to sit on the opposite side.
Tracy didn't believe this at first, but after he tried to call out to the guards around him but did not receive the proper response, he began to believe it, but he forced himself to sit down calmly and remained calm. A poker face.
"Then why did you come to me?"
"I'm here to ask you about the Vulcan Project."
"Are you from Theresia?"
"She's my collaborator, and just tonight, in Walker, I found her and I talked to her and we came to a consensus.
Then, I came to find you and arrived here two hours ago.
After arriving here, I spent another hour and a half quietly cleaning up the castle of irrelevant people.
Finally, he sneaked into your study and stood behind you quietly watching you handle government documents for half an hour.
And it was precisely because I saw you bowing your head and handling government documents seriously that I did not choose to sneak attack and knock you out, but I wanted to have a chat with you. "
Trixis: "..."
He didn't believe what the man in front of him said. Those words were like running a train.
After all, if the other party was really Theresia's person, he would definitely want to kill him instead of talking to him about the Vulcan plan.
However, Tracys confirmed one thing, that is, he had been blocked by this person in the study room where he usually ruled, and this was indeed the case without him noticing anything unusual.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Tracy asked again with a calm voice.
"Hey, didn't I make it clear just now? Why do you, the current monarch of Sakaz, and the former queen of Sakaz, both seem to have bad ears? Do you still need me to repeat what you said?"
Although Wu Ke complained a little, he still repeated what he wanted to know about Vulcan's plan.
Of course, what he wanted to inquire about was not the experimental contents of the Vulcan Project that he already knew.
It's about the reason why this person wants to implement the Vulcan plan. When people do something, most of them have a reason.
Tracy frowned, and after confirming that the other party was really asking this, he thought for a while before answering, and there was no such thing as lying.
"This is just a casual move on my part. If successful, Kazdaele's military strength will be greatly enhanced.
The strengthening of the military will also help me unify the country and consolidate my own status.
After all, strength speaks for itself in this world. If the Vulcan plan comes to fruition, the military power of the Sakaz people in Kazdare as mercenaries will once again reach the top level in the world.
Kazdaele will also be able to get an opportunity to get out of the current situation of national hardship..."
Tracy tried his best to speak on the good and fair side, as if the other party was also a national leader who did practical things for the people.
But compared to his predecessor, Queen Theresia's political philosophy is to develop internally and restore the country's economy.
What this person wants to do is to develop military power to strengthen the country and export Sakaz mercenaries to the outside world to gain national prosperity.
At the same time, they should also want to use strong military strength to control those city-states and even countries that hire Sakaz mercenaries to fight wars.
This man is indeed an ambitious man, but he is also a capable monarch. He is based on the mercenary tradition of the Sakaz people and is ready to become bigger and stronger and create greater glory, but this will be accompanied by bloodshed and sacrifice.
To be honest, Wu Ke didn't like this kind of mercenary mentality and the alternative idea of pursuing the prosperity of the country and the people, but he didn't reject it either. However, there was one thing he needed to figure out, and that was why the experimental subjects of the Vulcan Project were... Are they a group of orphaned Sakaz children?
After hearing this question and seeing Wu Ke frequently nodding in agreement with what he said, Tracys thought that Wu Ke had been impressed by his charm, and his heart suddenly jumped.
But he felt some danger. It seemed that as long as he couldn't answer this question, something very bad would happen to him.
Tracy recalled the opinions and attitudes expressed by this person towards certain things during the communication with the person opposite.
Faintly, Tracys got an impression in his heart: This was a young man who was not deeply involved in the world, did not know the dangers of the world, and had a righteous mentality in his heart.
The opponent may be very powerful, and he may very well be the person who attacked Rhine's life as described in the letter from Colombia.
Obviously, the other party somehow learned about the Vulcan Project, so he came to visit him. In fact, the reason why he came to the door was not for the inhumane human experiments in the Vulcan Project, but for the subjects of human experiments. It was about a group of children who were orphans of the Sakaz war.
And he knew this very well, because this was the order he personally issued. When the Vulcan Project was first proposed, some of his subordinates raised objections because they were worried about the possible consumption of soldiers and the impact of using this as experimental material. to the morale of the army.
The solution was for him to directly tell his men to collect unwanted war orphans.
Compared with the precious lives of adult Sakaz soldiers, the Sakaz children who became orphans due to the war are extremely cheap, almost costless, consumables.
His thoughts were spinning very fast, and Tracy's face showed no emotion, and his brows furrowed: "Is there such a thing?"
"Don't you know?"
"I don't know. Regarding the Vulcan Project, I have very little expectations for its success, so I leave it to my subordinates to handle it."
Traces directly dumped the blame. He was not that stupid. He would admit some stupid things that proved that he was a big bad guy in front of a young man who seemed to have a strong sense of justice and could silently enter the study and block him. .
"I see, I misunderstood. To be honest, I came here to teach the culprit who was planning to use children as experimental materials, just like this..."
Wu Ke spoke with a smile, broke off the handle of the chair under his buttocks, and then kneaded it into powder little by little in his hands, making it drip.
The corners of Tracys' eyes, which were watching the whole process, twitched crazily. The handle of the chair was completely made of hard stone.
It was actually broken and crushed into powder so easily. Fortunately, he didn't admit it just now.
"Now, please tell me who your subordinate is, so that I can go find him."
Tracys did not hesitate and decisively reported the name of one of his legion commanders, along with the location where his legion was stationed.
"Then, I'll go find him now."
Wu Ke stood up.
"However, I won't kill him directly. I will capture that person, but I will let him confront you."
Wu Ke put his hand on Tracys' shoulder.
"You know, I hate cheating.
If a bad guy dares to lie to me, he will end up badly.
For example, having your heart ripped out and your hope of survival crushed in front of you. "
After a pause, Wu Ke continued.
"However, I am a relatively generous messenger of justice. If you now admit that what you just said were lies, you actually knew about this matter, or it was probably carried out under your instructions.
I think you are doing this for the prosperity of your country. At the same time, this matter is still an attempted crime. I will not care about you or do anything to kill you.
I will only capture you and hand you over to the former Queen of Sakaz and my collaborator Theresia.
Now, think about it carefully and give me an answer. Was what you just said a lie? "
"Of course, not anymore."
Tracy's eyes were sincere and he said without hesitation.
"I love my people, whether they are children or adults."
"That's good, just wait for me here for a while.
Half an hour later, I came back with the people. "
Wu Ke patted Tracys on the shoulder and left the study. Before opening the door and going out and closing the door, he did not forget to give some instructions to the cool white-haired man inside.
"Remember, don't run around, especially when you open this door. The world outside is very dangerous!"
"I see."
Tracy was obedient and understood.
The door was slammed shut, the footsteps outside gradually faded away, and the study seemed to be as quiet as before.
One minute, two minutes...
Tracy sat on the chair and did not move. Five minutes after Wu Ke left, he looked very ugly and stood up from the chair opposite the main seat.
"Damn, those guards are really like dead people. An enemy invaded and kidnapped me, and then walked out of the study door in a big way. There was really no sound of fighting at all..."
"No, I can't sit here and wait to die. No matter whether that guy breaks into the military camp or not, and whether he succeeds in breaking into the military camp, I can't continue to stay in such a dangerous place..."
The long sword hanging on the wall of the study room was removed. Although it was a decorative sword, it was indeed a genuine source energy weapon and could be used in actual combat.
After taking off the sword and attaching it to his waist, Traces opened the secret compartment of the desk and took out an Originium pistol.
In less than twenty seconds, Tracy walked towards the door of the study, armed with a gun in his arms and a sword at his waist.
"I have to leave the inner fort and retreat to the secret safe house..."
After opening the study door, Tracys's words to himself suddenly stopped.
His eyelids twitched and his expression was a little stiff.
"You... haven't left yet?"
"No, I'm back. That person said it was you who ordered it."
Wu Ke opened his eyes and told lies. He came out of the study and left the corridor with the sound of footsteps.
Then he floated back again and stood at the door observing the people inside. He didn't leave until the door was opened.
"Do you have anything else to say now?"
"It seems you don't intend to let me go."
Traces pulled out the long sword from his waist, quietly reached into his arms, and using the cover of his clothes, he pointed the muzzle of the gun here.
"I said that the world outside the study is very dangerous, so you should stay inside and wait for me to come back with my people."
"But you didn't take anyone with you at all."
"That's because when you spoke just now, your heart beat a few beats slower. I heard it and I suspected that you were lying.
So, I waited here for a while. Do you still remember the time I just mentioned about coming back? "
