Condon smiled in relief upon hearing this.
"In the past, if someone suddenly talked about such a sensitive topic, I would have tried to avoid it. But since I want to cooperate, this is also a matter of deciding my position. I don't intend to hide it - I have no hope for the revitalization of the Talanick family. Hopes and plans are the same for the future.”
This is also a commitment.
Although words alone are not enough to fully trust Morgan, Condon's unhesitating attitude can also add points to his "credibility."
Morgan looked at him deeply.
The reason why he asked this was because he had long had doubts: the Taranik family had a very high position, extraordinary power, and deep foundation in the Cole Kingdom, which was enough to make Albert suffer.
But "profound foundation" should not be just a empty word used to describe strength.
The original patriarch and heir have both lost the ability to move, but in such a large family, Albert is not the only one left with the right to inherit. There should be countless helpers in the middle.
Just like Albert had Abdia under his command, the Taranik family should have had more superior talents available back then.
Killing two people is obviously not the only way.
The biggest doubt is that the Cole Kingdom did not interfere with Albert's rise to power except for finding someone to treat Condon. Other families who should be ready to take action also did nothing.
The country can also explain that it has no time to be distracted during the war, but how can the families who have never stopped fighting openly and secretly miss this opportunity?
What are they afraid of?
Mogan also has his own bold inference.
Could something have happened to the Talanik family long before the assassination, causing it to lose help and communication from the country and other families, leaving it completely isolated?
Even if Mo Gan has not actually experienced the overt and covert struggles between nobles, he understands one truth:
The Taranik family not only has the top leadership and the lowest resources, but making Albert, who is of pure blood but lacks ability, a puppet is actually a delicate job and must have many twists and turns.
——Unless all possible help has been eradicated long ago, someone took advantage of Albert's identity and took advantage of it.
But this kind of rash guess would be too sensitive to ask directly. Whether it would offend Taranik in front of him was secondary. If Condon really had something on his mind, Morgan took the risk.
Correspondingly, Condon's nonchalant attitude, if not his acting skills, could prove that the Talanick family's depravity stems from within - even if there is a trace of resentment towards others, it would not be such an attitude.
Morgan had heard some unserious war participants speculate that the rumors of the Taranik family's so-called proposal to marry the princess might be a cover for pre-preparation, just to seize the imperial power in a fair and just way.
Even the surname of the royal family is linked to the name of the country, so it is extremely easy to win the title. For most families, the glory represented by the surname is important, but there is a huge difference between the name and the real power.
If Taranik can take over the royal family and infiltrate and evade power day and night during the post-war reconstruction, the Cole Kingdom may change hands.
The old Duke was dead, so it was unclear whether he could go directly to Condon for verification. However, Morgan really thought about the feasibility and found that it was indeed possible.
Kangdon didn't know if he was aware of Mogan's thoughts after that. Seeing his unchanged expression, he sighed impromptuly.
"You surprised me. The Kingdom of Cole is lucky to have people like you serving the Kingdom of Cole. However, with the loyalty and status of your parents, this does not surprise me."
Morgan raised his eyebrows and corrected himself promptly, "I'm not serving the kingdom, I just happen to have the same purpose, that's all."
"That's not bad." Condon smiled, "Anyway, this kind of courage and selflessness reminds me of the 'unknown' brave man who ended the war thirty years ago. You should have heard of him."
The corners of Mogan's mouth twitched.
He had heard the story of the so-called "unknown brave man" thirty years ago, but he felt that it would be too exaggerated to cover someone like him.
Especially the word "selfless".
As long as the ending of that war is not deliberately ignored, most of the participants and even ordinary civilians remember the legend without an ending.
Condon obviously didn't notice it, or he simply noticed it but didn't want to end the over-the-top metaphor, and even continued to speak with a deep meaning.
"The unknown brave completely laid the foundation for the end of the war, allowing countless soldiers who would have died in the ongoing battle to survive without leaving their names. This is the true and pure heroic feat, the most selfless sacrifice, isn't it?"
"..."
Morgan was not very interested in the topic.
But since he was a junior from the beginning, it was difficult for him to interrupt rashly.
Then he knew for sure a fact.
The twin continents are vast and powerful. There is no shortage of good people named Morgan Grande in the world, so that he can be allowed to do more of what he wants to do without having to deal with too many messes.
——Perhaps the unknown warrior Condon talks about is such a good person, but it has nothing to do with him.
If there is any intention in what he is doing now, after all, Mogan is not an orphan.
For him, debt of gratitude is an important part of life no matter what. It has been destined since he had a father and a mother, and he who needs to pay attention to the ties must be involved in this kind of trouble.
Mogan is quite satisfied with his bloodline and life experience, because this is the basis for him to reach this point and establish his grand plan, and gifts also come with compensation - he fully accepts this.
Just like he had not reached the peak of his career in his previous life and cherished the numbers in his account very much, he also had to choose the right amount and give it to the right person to fund the orphanage where he grew up.
How much he owed and how much he should pay back, Mo Gan felt like a clear mirror in his heart. He didn't even think that this should be classified as a good deed, because his fundamental purpose was only to balance the relationship and reduce the psychological burden.
In his eyes, everything can be classified under the framework of transaction, regardless of family and friendship.
It was true before and it is true now.
Therefore, Mogan finally made no comment on Condon's sudden and excessive praise. He just responded perfunctorily and then calmly continued to his next topic - which was also his last topic.
"If you want to enter the XC area without going through any censorship, Senior Taranik, do you have any ideas?"
If you want to find a trail, the best way is to ask people who can go to the XC area and have been here for a long time.
However, Mo Gan didn't have high hopes. After all, Kang Dun was not good at it, so he couldn't explore in a vacuum with great fanfare.
And as he said, his main informants and influence are not in Nova City. According to a previous statement, although his identity is sensitive, he usually does not need to enter and exit the XC area through side doors.
Condon pondered for a moment.
"I have not tried this approach. But I have heard a rumor: There is a special passage in Nova City related to the 'Sun Disk' - you can check it out."
The sun wheel refers to the basic changes in some facilities in Nova City at the turn of day and night.
Morgan made a mental note, and then politely sent Condon to the door. After a few polite words, he asked this distinguished guest to leave on his own.
He is not interested in blindly prying into other people's secrets, because it costs a lot and comes with huge risks. Besides, some things are worse than not listening.
Therefore, he did not have the opportunity to hear Condon leave the hotel alone, and after fully confirming that no one was following him, he lowered his head and considered and muttered to himself with a solemn expression.
"He really doesn't know..."
What Mogan also didn't know was his own future. For example, if he could finally take a night's rest, he would meet two old friends at the commercial street of Nova City's DC district at the beginning of the next morning.
