The blue light mountain leader was originally the property of the packland chaebol. When the parliament decided to fight the war that day, the packland chaebol was expelled. As for the final outcome of this marginal aristocracy, no one will pay attention to it. In front of the monster of the dark Council, the plutocrats who have some influence on the edge of the coastline are not even bereaved dogs. They are completely crushed like ants.
As for the mole ant is still alive, or has become a giant of nutrients, who cares?
After that, the territory of the packland plutocrats was naturally taken over by the ogudus family. The parliament expanded to the outside world. As the top powerful family supporting the parliament, the ogudus family only got the part of the benefits they deserved. While reaping the benefits, the rich also have their own responsibilities. For example, if the front-line war is defeated and the enemy moves northward, then the ogudus family must meet the enemy and resist, and sending their eldest son as the front-line commander is only a small part of their obligation.
Interests are always relative.
As the owner of Augustus, Leo knows this very well. But when he received the news of Hart's disappearance and death, he was still dizzy. Hart has been regarded as the future helmsman of the family. He may be inferior to lain in terms of the potential of force, but in other aspects. For example, the strategy of running a family is far beyond it. Of course, in this era of chaos, as a family leader, you must also have the strength of all the people in the family.
Hart's strength not long ago is enough, even if his potential is only ten.
For such a promising young man, his family only invested a lot more in him. Hart also used his practical actions and front-line achievements to repay the family. In more than a year, his role has been recognized by important members of the family. There is no accident. In a few years, Leo will be able to retire to the second line and hand over the responsibility of the family to this young man.
At that time, with the help of lein's force and the cooperation of the two brothers, Leo can almost see the brighter future of the ogudus family.
But at this time, the news came that Hart was missing.
The garrison commander in neru city has been executed by Leo for dereliction of duty, but this is far from pacifying the anger and fear brought about by Aiko's disappearance. Leo is very clear that he has no spare power to cultivate another Hart, let alone in Hart's brothers and sisters, there is only one rein can barely replace. But lain will never be a good owner, lain's feelings are delicate. This may be the quality of a good poet, but it is not exactly what a householder needs.
It has been more than 24 hours since Hart's disappearance. For more than a day, every minute is a kind of torture to Leo. He didn't roar, but he was as quiet as a deep abyss. If someone touched it carelessly, he would fall to pieces.
As long as Hart disappeared, Leo stayed in his study. Now even the servant who has no strength in his study can feel the oppressive atmosphere like a big storm. This is undoubtedly a hard job for the housekeeper who needs to report the latest news to Leo from time to time. Even though the housekeeper has served the ogudus family for 30 years, he knows that Leo will never touch himself. But every time I step into the study, the housekeeper almost thinks that he has stepped into the fierce beast's nest.
Every time he had to be careful, he would sweat all over and his legs would be soft after leaving the study.
This time, however, his steps were steady and light, and the corners of his mouth were even uncontrollable, showing a smile or two. Open the door, the study is still extremely depressed, Leo is carrying his hands looking out the window. Just a figure is enough to suffocate people. The momentum released unconsciously from him is like flowing magma. Although the surface is calm, it is already boiling!
"If you still can't find Hart, you don't have to report it. Just let those scum who are in charge of the search come to me with their heads in their hands." Said Leo without looking back.
The housekeeper took a deep breath and said, "master, major general Xiuya of Xueqi, and Mr. zuofei of the law enforcement regiment, please see me."
"What are they doing here?" Leo frowned, especially when the speaker's adopted daughter and the head of the law enforcement group walked together. No matter how they looked, it was like a strange combination.
"Besides them, there's Mr. zero in Twilight... And master Hart."
"Hart?" Leo turned around like a whirlwind, his eyes shining, and said, "you said Hart was with them, they caught Hart. You just said the zero of dawn City, that's right. Even Constantine was lost under this young strong man. It's easy to take Hart. Well, how dare they send them to the door by themselves, when I'm a member of the Augustus family? "
"Master..." the housekeeper said hastily, "the situation is a little special. Master Hart doesn't seem to be forbidden. There's nothing wrong with it except that you look a little tired. "
It was obvious that he was surprised when Leo made a move. He nodded, put away the oppressive atmosphere in the study, adjusted his mood, and asked the housekeeper to arrange for the visitor to go to a secret room. With Leo's experience, it's not difficult to see that these people must have a lot to say, especially one of them is the enemy's zero, so the problem is more complicated.Leo believes that even if Xiuya is crazy to cooperate with his enemies, the law enforcement regiment will never do this, let alone the head of the law enforcement regiment. Zuo Fei's Lei Ou also knows that he is lazy on the surface like a vagrant, but in fact, he is a guy with amazing means. Such a man will never walk with zero without any reason. Apart from Xiuya, single zuofei and zero are enough to make Leo be careful.
No one knows that there are some special guests in the blue mountain today. Zuo Fei directly informs the ogudus family of their arrival through the secret channel of the law enforcement group. So when the four of them followed the housekeeper to a small but windowless secret room, no one in the ogudus family, including lein, knew that Hart had returned to the family.
As soon as the manager left, Leo came in. As the door closed, he and Hart hugged each other. Then he said, "just come back."
Let Hart go, Leo's eyes pass Xiuya and zuofei, and finally stop on zero's face. He said directly, "you let Hart go. Good. You can ask for anything but my withdrawal, young man
Hart looked awkwardly at zero and said, "well, I have nothing to ask but for your withdrawal."
Leo suddenly became fierce: "now you are in the territory of ogudus. Do you think that our family can't compete with you?"
"If I'm for war, do you think Hart can stand here?" No rhetorical question, no less powerful than Leo.
Leo squinted. "Maybe you just can't kill my son."
Hart coughed and said, "father, it's easy to kill me."
Leo looks at his son unexpectedly. Hart shows his hand and says, "OK, Mr. zuofei. If you don't say it again, I don't care if father and zero fight. "
Zuo Fei, with a wry smile, said to Leo: "Mr Leo, our law enforcement group and several parliaments suspect that the speaker is bringing the parliament into the abyss."
Leo asked quietly, "which members are they?"
Zuo Fei answered one by one, but every name he said made Leo's eyelids jump. His eyelids jumped seven times. These seven names, even if slightly inferior to his Leo, are also important names in Parliament. If Zuo Fei doesn't talk about it, the biggest crisis of trust in the history of Parliament will break out.
At the center of the storm was speaker oglock. It's no surprise that if this kind of thing can't be handled properly, the parliament will disintegrate immediately.
"What's going on?" said Leo in a deep voice
They talked for two hours in the secret room, and the housekeeper stood for two hours outside the door. Until the door opened, Hart came out with a smile and said to the housekeeper, "please bring us some coffee. Father and the guests need to refresh themselves."
The housekeeper glanced into the door. Leo was frowning. According to his nearly 30 years' experience in serving the family leader, Leo is in a difficult situation. He always acted decisively, even if Hart disappeared, Leo immediately responded. It can be said that it is rare for him to show hesitation like this.
Hart closed the door again, and Leo snorted, "prosius? It's hard for me to believe that there is such a... Existence in the world? "
"You can ask my father about this, and he will give you the same answer as us." Elegant and high spirited.
Leo looked at her with a complicated look and said, "major general, do you know what you're doing?"
"I know, of course, that by nature I am betraying my father." "But emotionally, I know I'm saving him. I don't want him to be so rebellious, so even if it hurts him, I'm willing to do it. "
After watching her for a minute, Leo sighed, "it seems that there is such a thing."
"If you don't believe it, I can ask Douglas to testify. He is also one of the few people who feel the change in the world. " Zero said.
Leo shook his head: "no, I know what major general Xiuya is like. Since even she jumped out to say that, nine times out of ten things are true. "
"Besides, you brought Hart back and didn't choose to kill him." Leo looked at zero and said, "although in the short term, killing Hart doesn't change the whole situation. But in the long run, it will make our family fall into a crisis of no successor after ten years. It's definitely a time bomb for our family and for Parliament. Now that you have shown your sincerity, I have no reason not to believe it. "
"There's a bigger problem." Zuo Fei sighed and said, "according to the information we have, the speaker has transferred a large amount of war resources from the parliament in the name of war. However, it is still unknown where these resources will go."Hart also said: "the speaker's recent actions are really strange. Father, do you remember my request for high-level combat power from Parliament? Even if the coalition forces of Yingling hall and dawning city have been forced into the front line, and the speaker is not willing to transfer the abyss black cavalry, then where is this part of combat power? "
Leo's eyes moved, he suddenly clenched his teeth to spit out two words: "dark nest!"
"Dark nest?"
A few people look at each other, even Xiuya and zuofei have never heard of this word.
Leo said in a deep voice, "Damn it, Ogg, you did it all the time."
"Father, what is a dark nest?" Hart asked for the crowd.
"It was a plan, a plan shortly after the dark knight of the abyss came out." Leo whispered.
After the successful modulation of the abyss black riding, oglock put forward a bolder and crazier idea. The genetic blueprint of abyssal black riding comes from the disordered. However, in order to preserve its will, the parliament has spent a lot of resources on this. It can be said that the cost of each dark knight in the abyss is amazing, and the success determines the number. The huge consumption of resources determines that abyss black riding can't mass produce it.
Because the main resource consumption of black knight is to retain the will, oglock proposed to eliminate this requirement and use a way similar to intelligent AI to control, so as to reduce the success and mass produce ten level biological weapons. In fact, this method is similar to asmo. The difference is that asmo is unable to produce weapons of level 10.
At that time, there were only three people who knew about the plan. Only Leo knew about it, except for oglock and Dr. shawner, the former director of the abyss project. When Leo learned that oglock had this idea, he tried to stop it. Leo thinks that a level 10 weapon without will is 100 times more dangerous than a black knight in the abyss. If they have the will, like the abyss black riding, their behavior can be regulated by a series of emotions such as morality and loyalty.
Without will, it is like a beast that has opened its shackles. Even if it is controlled by AI system, no one can guarantee whether these weapons will be out of control one day. Once the mass-produced level 10 weapons are out of control, it will be a devastating blow.
Because of Leo's strong opposition, oglock promised to give up the dark nest project.
"But now, he's obviously rebooting." Leo shook his head and said, "Ogg has always been a stubborn old man. When he met Douglas, it was because of their fundamental differences in principle. Over the years, Ogg has been proving himself to Douglas, but I didn't expect that his obsession has now become completely crazy. "
Zuo Fei sighed: "so I'm most afraid of dealing with paranoia. They are just a little bit different from madmen."
Xiuya immediately glared at him, the latter said with a bitter smile: "no offense, just the truth."
"Father, with your familiarity with the speaker, what stage do you think the plan has reached?" Hart asked.
Leo walked back and forth in the chamber of Secrets for a few times and said, "Ogg, I'm afraid that when this war starts, he will secretly prepare to restart the dark nest plan."
"Wait, you mean. This war, and everything else, is just a cover for the speaker to start the dark nest? " Hart lost his voice.
Rao sighed: "I'm afraid so, because only war can distract all members, including me. Because only in war can the speaker have the maximum power to allocate resources. Similarly, there is only war. When the dark nest project is exposed, he can also use war as an excuse to get out. Ogg, he intends to clean up the world, a clean-up with his ideas. "
"Where is the base of the dark nest?" Zero asked directly.
"Death ridge."
"Death mountain?" The people present gasped again.
Death mountain zero is very familiar, no matter when he was a wild mercenary, or later in order to go to other continents, he salvaged destiny from death mountain. It's not a good place to set up a research base because of its complex environment and abyss lords like filthy devours. But because of this, no one thought that the base of dark nest would be set up on that mountain collar.
Death ridge is very close to Phoenix. Once the dark nest soldiers are mass-produced and put into the battlefield, Phoenix will surely be the first to suffer from the disaster. Zero can't help but be glad to find it early. Otherwise, he thought everything was under control. When the dark nest warrior appeared, it would be too late.
"At that time, oglock had made a detailed plan, even the personnel arrangement and resource preparation had been completed. Finally, because of my opposition, it ran aground. If he restarts this plan, then the dark nest base must still be on death ridge. Only one thing, I don't know the exact location of the base. "
"It's good to know that it's on death hill." "I have to go back immediately and organize an operation. This base must be destroyed," he saidLeo nodded: "I can lend two ten strong people here, no more, more will leak."
"In this way, the fighting on the front has to continue." "At least, we have to show the speaker," Hart thought
"That's right. I'll call sol when I get back and ask him to do a good play with you." Zero said.
Hart shrugged: "fate is really wonderful. Two days ago I was thinking about how to kill sol, but now I want to cooperate with him."
Leo said with a smile, "let's go. I'll talk to those old guys, too. Let's see how we can stop Ogg from going wrong after you drop the dark nest. "
Several people came and left secretly. A few days later, Hart returned to neru. As for how he disappeared and how he came back, he naturally had a set of words. Zero then secretly went to see sol and told him about the dark nest project and the cooperation with Augustus.
The war is still going on, and the main battlefield for which both sides are fighting is still full of artillery fire. However, under the intentional mobilization of commanders of both sides, the war seems fierce, but the number of casualties has plummeted. Of course, Council officers would only credit Hart's dispatch.
Just when the war attracted most people's attention, a secret team set out from Phoenix and quietly went to death ridge. The team is led by zero and consists of his own Yeliu and Haiwei. Su and Feng continue to stay on the battlefield, occasionally appear, giving people the illusion that dawn city is still fighting. Maybe it will be seen through, but that's after taking away the dark nest.
Finally, there are two strong men, Stanley and Nero, who come from the hall of the spirit, and two strong men, Naxi and van Jellis, who are loaned by the ogudus family.
