Chapter 254 The Duke of Lancaster

Xiao En Xindao looks like there are factional struggles within the Rational Society.

But I heard the minister say: "I can send you an email, and if you are willing to pay a small amount, I can even send you a telegram. This is a newly invented technology that can transmit information to thousands of people in an instant. Miles away, is the latest scientific achievement of the Society of Rationality.

But I'm not sure when the Nathaniel branch will send someone to contact you. "

"Thank you very much, where do I need to pay for the telegram?"

Five minutes later, Sean walked out with Yulia.

"Why don't you let me talk about things?" Yulia asked angrily.

Sean sighed, "I've seen your minister before. It seems that Ulysses distributed meatballs to homeless people. He was watching on the spot."

"What! This, this is impossible!"

Yulia lost her voice, apparently unable to accept this fact.

"Damn it, rationality prevails, we have to report this to the headquarters, if even the sub-head is involved..."

Sean shook his head. The headquarters of the Rational Society is located in Bran, and it is two or three days away from Sword Castle. It is too late to go back and forth.

"It's too late, Ulysses will start to move in three days."

"Three days..." Yulia's expression changed for a while, "If there is no other way, I can only bring my people up! I hope Ulysses' power has not developed to the point where it cannot be lost."

Sean shook his head, "It's not wise to pin our hopes on the enemy's mistakes. Maybe we can ask others for help. In addition to the distribution of the Rational Society, Sword Fort also has other military and political forces, the police station, Sword Fort City Hall, the garrison of the Armory, or—”

He suddenly had an answer in his heart.

"Maybe I can ask the Duke of Lancaster for help."

When Ulysses was performing the spiritual planting ceremony that day, many people who appeared to be of high status came to the scene. Since even the head of the Society of Rationality has surrendered to the enemy, the police and the city hall may not be counted on. up.

Otherwise, Ulysses has made such a big move these days, there is no reason for these departments not to feel the difference at all.

Let Xiao En go to those people, he really doesn't have much confidence.

Apart from these official powers, only the Duke of Lancaster still possesses a strong force in Sword Castle City.

The Duke of Lanster is a so-called nobleman with swords. As a descendant of the Twelve Knights, he has his own private guard. Originally, this guard was left in Bran, but since Little Lanster had an accident last year, the guard He was transferred to Sword Castle, on the one hand to track down the murderer, and on the other hand to protect the safety of the Duke of Lancet and his family.

If you can get the assistance of the Duke of Lancaster, there may still be a chance to solve the problem before it is too late.

He told Yulia about his thoughts, but Yulia could only nod her head.

"This may indeed be an opportunity, so please, I will try my best to find someone I can trust. I still have some connections with the police station and the Garrison Department. I should be able to organize some reliable personnel. You said Ulysses If Si asks you to give him an answer within three days, then we must be ready to act within two days.

We'll have to do it the moment you go to see him. "

Sean nodded, "It's not too late, I'm going to visit the Duke of Lanster's house tonight."

After separating from Yulia, Sean didn't start to leave immediately.

It was still early, so he went to the cafe to drink a cup of coffee and eat something.

While eating, I thought about the rhetoric of meeting later.

He had never met the Duke of Lancet, and with the things he had done before, he couldn't help but feel a little complicated. How did things come to this?
According to what the 'big group' said, it has existed in this world for hundreds of millions of years. Could it be that it is the so-called ancient god?
It is really a completely different style of painting with them who believe in gods.

Finish your coffee.

Sean finally thought up his words.

Hired a carriage and went straight to the Duke's mansion.

The Duke's mansion is located in the upper area of ​​the Sword Castle. There are no stinky drainage channels or smoky arsenals here. Even the air has become much fresher.

Guards with live ammunition patrol the streets to ensure that the level of law and order here is exemplary. There is absolutely no beggar or homeless person to be seen on the street. Anyone who is slightly suspicious will be questioned and investigated.

Sean's decent outfit was naturally no longer included, he passed the checkpoint and patrol police smoothly, and came outside the Duke's mansion.

It was already dark at this time, and the castle-style manor of the Duke's family was brightly lit, and it stood out from the crowd among the luxurious mansions of high officials and dignitaries.

I reported my name to the guard, and when I heard that it was Eric's professor, I was taken directly into the mansion.

A few minutes later, Sean met Eric in a reception room.

"Professor Sean? Why are you here?"

"Why, aren't you welcome?"

"No, no, of course not. I am looking forward to your visit very much. I have a lot of questions I want to ask you for advice, but I didn't expect you to come so early." Eric said a little embarrassed, "I There was no time to prepare.”

"You don't have to be so polite, the relationship between the teacher and the students doesn't have to be so hypocritical." Sean said, looking around on his own.

"So what do you want from me?"

"Recently, I feel that something is not right with my body. I feel inexplicably agitated and thirsty. Sometimes I will dream, and the scene in your castle is strange and chaotic."

Eric's voice was a little helpless and troubled, and it seemed that he had been troubled for a long time.

Sean's heart moved, could it be related to asking them to help summon Oroin's ball?

But I have clearly erased their memories. Could it be that the hat was not handled cleanly, leaving residual memories?

"Ahem, maybe you are getting old. You know, the human body has many mysteries. Once you reach a certain age, the hormones in your body will prompt humans to do some unreasonable things, especially for young people."

Eric was still a little dazed at first, but suddenly he understood, and his face flushed suddenly.

"Professor, I'm not..."

He opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to explain it, so he could only sigh: "Let's not talk about it, Professor Xiao En, is there any special reason for the three stories you told during the day today?"

Suddenly a knock on the door interrupted their conversation.

"Young master, the Duke asked you to go there, and Professor Xiao En, the Duke invited you to have dinner together."

Xiao En thought to himself that there was really something missing.

"Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient, let's go Eric, don't keep your father waiting for a long time."

Five minutes later, on the roof of the castle, Sean met the Duke of Lancet.

The Duke of Lancaster was wearing only a silk pajamas, looking very casual.

At this time, he was fiddling with a roast quail with a fork in disinterest, when he saw two people walking in and stretching out their hands as a gesture of please.

"Hi Professor Sean, I've heard of your name, how is it, Eric didn't cause trouble for you at school, did he?"

"Where is the Duke, it is my honor to be able to teach young people knowledge, and there is nothing more satisfying than passing on knowledge."

Looking at the Duke of Lancet in front of him, Sean felt a little guilty. After all, he killed his son last year.

"Can you have a meal together, I hope to know about Eric's studies."

"Father—"

The Duke of Lancet raised his hand, and Eric was speechless for a moment.

Sean shrugged, "It's okay, I just happen to be a little hungry."

He sat down, and the butler in a tuxedo immediately delivered the delicious lamb chops and poured Sean another glass of wine.

Sean was indeed a little hungry, and started to eat with big mouthfuls, but Eric, who was sitting on the side eating, was a little absent-minded.
