Hebrews followed David into the living room. This was a sign that the chief attendant had something to report. But he couldn't speak immediately because Gu Hanhan was still with David. After all, whether Gu Hanhan is the master's healer or the master's nurse, it is customary not to mention the disappointing business to the master when she is present. We can only wait until Gu Hanhan leaves or David can get away before talking.
As for Gu Hanhan, she also knew that David had left the family behind for more than ten days and it was impossible for the chief attendant to have nothing to report when he came back. If it were before, she would have left voluntarily. Having been in the Acropolis for so long, she is very clear about the habits of the superpower nobles. Not only David, but also Anthony almost never does anything serious in front of her. Even Su Daqian spends ten hours a day just to see him alone. You can get up early for a five-minute state affairs report. But today, Gu Hanhan was thinking about the assassination and did not want to know the result from David later, so he did not take the initiative to avoid it.
She didn't shy away, and of course no one could catch her except David. But David's attitude was bright and open. He had no intention of dismissing Gu Hanhan or leaving by himself. Instead, he directly asked Hebra: "What's the matter with the chief attendant?"
Hebrew was deeply aware of the inconveniences of his master being the healer and his beloved wife in one, but he had no choice but to suppress his discomfort and report to David the situation of the lighthouse star in recent days——
Taking the assassination of Emperor Seifert XI of Ogra on New Year's Eve as a trigger, the situation in the universe suddenly turned downward, and a huge wave of "anti-superpower terrorism" started from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top, one wave after another. It was as high as a wave, and in an instant it swept across the entire universe. The barely maintained balance of forces between the two major camps in the universe was immediately crushed to pieces by this huge torrent. The galaxy was covered with clouds of war, the wind was rumbling everywhere, and the horn of a full-scale cosmic war had already sounded. Telegrams are going back and forth between various countries, and the tension is rising. The fleets on the border are waiting for the moment, and the countdown to war has begun. Just waiting for whoever fires the first shot, the raging fire of civil war will burn throughout the universe.
Under such a situation, the "Lighthouse Star" as the center and actual source of the universe is of course no longer peaceful. The United Nations and the Super Power Association were both in a state of distress, and the great nobles of the Acropolis also went into battle shirtless. The illusion of peace and prosperity was shattered, leaving only the light of swords and shadows. With the "Cornerstone of the Temple Spirit" as its banner, Ogra's Samanda entangled the forces of the entire outward camp and the neutral world, and launched a comprehensive encirclement and suppression of the inward forces led by the Dark Temple Knight Rhine. For more than ten days, the confrontation spread from the Acropolis to the entire universe, and then flowed back from the universe to the Acropolis. Now it has become a bayonet and the fight has reached the final moment.
In this confrontation, Samanda held the sword of "justice" and used the weapon of "anti-terrorism". The right time, place and people were all present, so he made great progress all the way, and the situation was overwhelmingly favorable. However, Rhine's side only missed a move in the assassination incident and lost the initiative. Under Samanda's fierce offensive, they had to retreat steadily. Even Rhine himself was trapped in the lighthouse star, and it was difficult to escape for a while.
However, things haven't gotten out of hand yet. The conclusive evidence that Rhine and the Black Temple were directly involved in the assassination of Emperor Ogra is currently not in the hands of the extroverted camp. This leaves room for the introverted camp to maneuver and dodge. Therefore, although Samanda pressed forward step by step, Rhine was forced into a blind corner. , but still couldn't kill him with one blow.
The death of Sitings, the red priest of the Dark Temple, has completely cut off all clues on the Rhine side. Now the only evidence is in the hands of David Duran. However, David Duran anticipated the enemy's opportunity and rushed to the fight. Fang Xingwei came and left, choosing to remain silent at the critical moment of the confrontation between the internal and external parties. The situation on Lighthouse Star has fallen into a strange stalemate. The struggle has reached its limit, and both internal and external parties are waiting for the return of David Duran.
Therefore, in the early spring of 4014 in the cosmic calendar, the war and overall situation of the entire galaxy, as well as the growth and decline of power of the two major camps inside and outside, were actually in the hands of David Duran.
By announcing the truth, the flag of the extrovert camp can be completed, and all victory and justice can be harvested. Taking advantage of this great situation unprecedented in a thousand years, he can counterattack and launch a "holy war" to completely eliminate the extrovert camp and unify human thought. A comprehensive civil war in the galaxy will begin. This is inevitable. And if David Duran continues to remain silent, the introverted camp will be able to get a precious breathing space. The extroverted camp, which has reached its limit of attack, will only be able to return without success or even fall into chaos. The initiative in the war will be lost. Back in the hands of the introvert camp again.
Of course, for David himself, the choice was not easy. If he chooses to make the truth public, it means that he will completely fall to the extrovert camp, and there will be no possibility of reconciliation with the introvert camp. This is obviously a huge risk when the two major temples of the universe stand side by side and the Earth Temple is facing many dangers.
And if David chooses to help the introverted camp, it will certainly make the Golden Lion owe him a favor and gain the friendship of Rhine and even the entire Dark Temple, but accordingly, he will have to bear more pressure from the extroverted camp, which will undoubtedly make He will face even greater difficulties when he enters the world. Moreover, he could no longer expel those families who had disobeyed him on charges of rebellion, but could only attribute everything to a romance.
Hebrew put a report in front of David, which was the confession of seven assassins from the Dark Temple. This investigation confirmed that the Dark Temple was involved in the conspiracy to assassinate the Emperor Ogra and dismember all the facts of the unrest in Ogra. Because of this report, Hebrews was under great pressure during the days when David was away from the Acropolis, and it feels very heavy when it is presented now - this is a decision that only David himself can make.
"Mr. Lin came to visit once," he reported. "He was very sorry to hear that you were not here. He hoped to see you as soon as you came back."
David shook his head: "No need, I already know roughly what Mr. Lin means."
"Fang Chuyu came to Kinmen to stop me specifically for this matter," he said casually. "Intelligence from the United Nations strategic agency shows that the Temple Liberators and other resistance organizations are very active in this wave of opposition to superpower terrorism."
"Yes," Hebrew lowered his head and said, "The association has forwarded a secret letter through the tribunal. It also believes that once a large-scale civil war breaks out in the universe, it will bring opportunities to various resistance organizations. Since the dissolution of the Earth Temple Mr. Lin is wanted. It seems that because of Mr. Lin and some others who are still uncertain, many countries have lifted the ban on the Temple Liberators or weakened their restrictions. This movement is coming in force and will surely make them bigger. Association I am worried that once the two major temples go into full-scale war, or the temple liberator organization will take the opportunity to hijack public opinion, the war will be easy to start but not easy to stop. I am afraid that before the outcome of the two major camps is decided, the sacred mountain will collapse and the golden sea will collapse."
"Lands collapsing and seas collapsing?" David was speechless, "Can the wording of the Adjudication Division still be so exaggerated?"
He glanced at the report submitted by Hebrew, without even opening it, and directly ordered Hebrew: "Seal it up - as for the seven slaves of Master Rhine, you should find a suitable opportunity to return them to him."
When David said these words, Hebrew's heart suddenly relaxed. Ninety-nine pounds of heavy burdens were lifted. At this moment, he was completely relieved. He used to be quite worried that his master would make impulsive decisions in a hot head, but now it seems that he is really worrying too much. His master is only twenty-three years old, still very young, very young, far from the time when he needs to choose a camp...
"As you command." Hebrews saluted formally. After standing up, David had already changed the report in front of him. A very thick stack is a list of confessions and sacrifices.
Hebrews then directly asked David: "Although the sins of those sinners who disobeyed the master are unforgivable, it was not their original intention to hurt the master by mistake. Seeing that they have repented and their repentance is considered pious, the master may be merciful and forgive them." .”
David flipped through it casually, but he felt that it was extremely ironic in his heart. Of course, there was no need to look at the sacrifice that could make the chief attendant say the word "pious". The family that had repented must have been weakened to the extreme, and it was impossible not to repent. . Presumably, they can only be his loyal and docile vassals for as long as he lives. However, so what? His life will always end. When he dies, their loyalty will immediately be directed elsewhere. Even these "sacrifice" that have drained the family's heritage and essence will eventually return to their hands again. In the final analysis, he is nothing more than the custodian of their glory and wealth, the watchdog they paid a huge price for...
Then David threw away the list. "The chief attendant will deal with it as appropriate." He said, "My injury has healed. When Hanhan calms down, it doesn't hurt to pardon me." "
"Yes, Master."
Hebrew saluted, then turned to look at Gal, so Gal took the list and presented it to Gu Hanhan.
Of course Gu Hanhan wanted to set up this stage. Not only did David plead with her in advance for this matter, in fact, after witnessing the truth of "expulsion" and "confession", it was hard for Gu Hanhan to believe that if everyone was really expelled but she herself would not. Will have a bad conscience. So, she decisively pushed away the list and said with a smile: "Don't worry about me, I'm fine now and I don't have any objections."
But at this moment, David suddenly stopped him and said, "No, Hanhan, you can keep that one. There is also my private collection. You should go and see it when you have time. What's mine is yours, so you don't have to be polite." "
Gu Hanhan was shocked when he heard: This is just a temporary job and I don't know how many days I can work for it. I am just providing a healing wave. How can I accept someone else's passbook password and ask for their entire net worth?
However, David's tone was very matter-of-fact. Even Hebrew and Gal, the always serious attendants, looked calm, as if David's words were normal.
"These are usually managed by the Family Affairs Bureau. The chief of affairs will come over to see the young lady soon," Gal said to Gu Hanhan, "If the young lady has anything to do in the future, just give them instructions directly."
