Ark's Journey to the Demon God

"The Aslan tribe is a branch of the Philin tribe. It is said that their origin is in Sargon in the south. Some of them are from Letania in the east, and some are from other broken countries."

"In order to integrate into Victoria, they launched a protracted war with Drak. The war finally ended with Drak's compromise. The two families shared power equally, with half of the throne family."

Hearing this, the expressions of the two sisters began to freeze, and their emotions began to decline.

"For a long time afterwards, the ancient covenant of equal power sharing between the two races was maintained, until the gradual decline of the Drak bloodline."

Shen Muke had his own guess about the decline of Drak's bloodline.

First of all, the low birth rate and high death rate are definitely the main reasons. Drake's pure bloodline is very rare, but even with this rare bloodline, he always dies.

In the original plot, Edward, the last member of Drak's royal family, died at the hands of his sworn brother Wei Yanwu because of Black Snake's trick. From then on, Drak's heirs became extinct.

With such an unstable bloodline inheritance, Drake's decline is almost inevitable.

In addition, the decline of the Drak bloodline is also inseparable from the Aslan clan.Perhaps due to the protection of the beast master, Aslan has been a strong man in almost every generation of monarchs. When his opponents are getting stronger with each generation, do you expect Drak to regain his strength?

You might as well place your hopes on the people of Sakazna and see if they can fight to kill Aslan!

But this is highly likely to be impossible~

"Mr. Agaritu, why is the Drac family gradually declining?" Abrana looked at Shen Muke and asked.

"There are various reasons, such as low birth rate, power struggle, position struggle, and other various reasons."

"So, Aslan is Drac's enemy, right?"

Abrana asked suddenly.

"Enemies?"

Shen Muke was stunned. This was a difficult question to answer.

Because this period of history is a bad debt. If old scores must be settled, all races on the continent of Terra will have no friends to speak of. Which race has no enemies?

Should old scores between Colombia and Victoria be settled?Do we need to settle old scores with Bolivar?Do we need to settle the score between Ursus and the Hippogriff Empire?Even Dayan... Dayan has been able to establish his country to this day, at least half of it is thanks to the help of the Sui Beast, so the relationship between the two is very big, starting from thousands of years ago!

If everything was revealed, wouldn't Terra be reduced to a pot of porridge?

"I can't answer this question, child." Shen Muke pondered for a while, and finally replied: "The battle between races, right and wrong, is difficult to discuss. From Drac's perspective, Aslan stole his throne. Intruders; from Aslan's perspective, the survival of his own race rests on this throne. They must win and win living space for their own race. I can't describe the twists and turns in this, so, I It can only be said that survival and power are the two most difficult things to share in this world."

Shen Muke's words were very heavy, but he felt that the two sisters should be able to understand. Draco's bloodline is full of precocious geniuses.

And to be fair, Aslan was benevolent and righteous in those days. Any problems were solved directly on the battlefield. He defeated Drak on the front battlefield and forced Drak to compromise. This was not considered a victory without force...

Wouldn't it be better if the strategy was a bit dirty, surrendering Drak first, then backstabbing, and gaining the entire throne without fighting?

"So, when we grow up, if Aslan weakens, can we be the masters of Victoria?" Abrana seemed a little excited at this time. She stared at Shen Muke: "That ancient covenant is not a rule. Now, can Drak’s ethnic group also be king?”

"Why do you have to be obsessed with the throne?" Shen Muke asked, "Whether it's Drake or Aslan, all the suffering comes from that throne. Why do you have to get that throne before you give up?"

"But, didn't you say that Draco has been Victoria's master since a long time ago? Is there anything wrong with taking back what belongs to Draco?"

"Victoria's owner?" Shen Muke seemed a little surprised, then he waved his hand and said, "You got it wrong, Abrana, that is just the history recorded by the historian, not the truth. Victoria's owner was never Drake, let alone Not Aslan."

"Then, who is Victoria's owner?" Lafshini asked timidly, her eyes widened.

"Well...ah, we have it! Look at this!"

Shen Muke stood up, then walked to the window and opened the window facing the street.

Through the reflection of the glass, the two sisters lying on the bed could see everything on the street.

The streets were not quiet at this time.

The arsenal workers who had just finished the night shift were walking hurriedly on the road. They were in small groups, with expressions of sadness and joy, intertwined into a different kind of picture.

"See? Abrana, Ravshini."

"They are workers who have just finished the night shift at the Royal Dale Arsenal. You must know that although they have a royal title, these workers are real ordinary people."

"You ask me who the owner of Victoria is, then I will tell you now, this is the answer -"

"Without the labor of workers, Royal Dale Arsenal would not be able to produce even a long knife or a crossbow."

"Victoria cannot fight a decent war without weapons, and its enemies will come and occupy it and invade the land."

"As for those aristocratic businessmen who hold wealth, their wealth will be reduced to waste paper overnight. Even the waste paper is produced by workers in the printing factory!"

"Victoria does not stand on Terra by that throne, but by these scurrying workers!"

"You ask me who is the real owner of Victoria, and now I tell you, they are the owners of Victoria!"

Chapter 25 Londinium Crypt

Somewhere in Londinium.

"Sorry, everyone...I'm late."

Shen Muke emerged from the shadows, still wearing the black robe, wizard hat and monocle.

This is a newly opened basement, and several people have already taken their seats before Shen Muke.

The leader of Arianna in the Witchwood.

Kelsey.

Captain Geoffrey Mace of the Tower Knights.

There was another heavyweight, Robert Duke of Cumberland.

"Good day, Duke of Cumberland, I didn't expect you to actually join..." Shen Muke bowed slightly and greeted.

The Duke of Cumberland nodded with a smile and responded: "I should greet you first, Mr. Agaritu, you have solved a big problem for me."

Shortly after everything in Duolun County settled, a "small organization" led by the beast master Gawain was born.

The main purpose of establishing this organization is to deal with the possible counterattack of the Black Snake after the Duolun County incident.The beast owner believes that Black Snake cannot let the plan fail. If he suffers this secret loss, he will definitely adopt an even crazier plan to disrupt Victoria's order and shake Victoria's foundation. At this time, an intelligence sharing, mutual exchange and coordination Organization is particularly important!

The beast master learned from Shen Muke's previous experience of piecing together intelligence. He believed that at this stage, the only way to get the official information was as quickly as possible.

This information must be combined with some folk rumors, so that we can deal with the black snake's endless tricks.

Therefore, [Londinium Basement] came into being!

(This name was given by Kelxi. Although Shen Muke said that he didn’t know what to say, the beast owner Gawain still accepted the name. Congratulations!)

The organization started with only five members.

They are Chief Arianna, Kelsey, Agaritu, Beast Master Gawain and Jeffrey Mace.Among them, the beast owner Gawain often cannot come over due to various reasons.

Now, [Londinium Basement] finally welcomes its actual fifth member - Duke Robert Cumberland.

The Duke of Cumberland's joining was a natural thing. He was already troubled by the [accounting] scam. Kate Black used Cumberland's name all over the world to promote fraudulent stocks, leaving the Duke with no time to deal with government affairs during this period. Just trying to refute the rumors.

Fortunately, some time ago, Metz went to Duolun County, and Kate was arrested.His huge amount of stolen money was also recovered, but Cumberland's reputation never received a big blow.

Robert personally carried the gift to Metz, but the other party finally declined the gift and told him that it was not him who caught Kate, but someone else.

The Duke of Cumberland soon learned Agaritu's name and learned the details of the other party from the king.

Young, handsome, strong, wise and rich, he is the perfect character!

If Alladay hadn't been so young, Cumberland would have wanted him to be his son-in-law!

After that, Cumberland also learned about the organization [Londinium Basement] through the king.

The Duke of Cumberland suddenly became energetic. Although he himself has always been known for his good conduct, strictness and modesty, but man, who can refuse to join a mysterious intelligence organization?

╮(￣▽￣)╭

Come on, [Londinium Basement] is really cool!

After the approval of the beast owner Gawain, the loyalty and character of the Duke of Cumberland were guaranteed, and Robert joined this "mysterious" organization as he wished.

"This is nothing, Your Majesty the Duke of Cumberland, I just did some trivial things."

"What you call a small thing has saved a group of children and my family's reputation... Don't be overly modest, Agaritu."

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before today's meeting officially began.

According to the plan of the beast masters Gawain and Kelsey, their division of labor is different.

First of all, Mace, as a tower knight, is mainly responsible for collecting intelligence in the imperial court; Arianna, as the leader of the infected organization, is responsible for collecting some intelligence in the gray field; Agaritu currently opens a herbal medicine shop, and he is responsible for collecting information from ordinary people. Intelligence; the Duke of Cumberland, as a noble, is responsible for collecting intelligence from the powerful; Kelsey uses her connections to collect some information and arrange it in the middle.

To be honest, if all parties had not cooperated before and knew each other, such intelligence sharing would have been impossible. Leader Arianna and Shen Muke may not care about their little tidbits, but the intelligence of Mace and Duke of Cumberland is different. Confidential to a certain extent!

At the meeting, Mace first talked about the final outcome of the Duolun County incident:

First of all, the criminals who tried to cause trouble were imprisoned in the strictest prison in Londinium, and what awaited them was severe punishment.

That guy named Snake, he slipped away very fast. Mace led a team to search for him but couldn't find any trace of him. In the end, he had to give up. However, the imperial court issued a wanted order, which was an explanation.

Shen Muke nodded after hearing this. This was also expected. No matter how strong Mace was, he was still a human being. Compared with the veteran Zuowangdao Black Snake, he was still inferior. It didn't matter. Anyway, the victory or defeat of this move was not bad.

Finally, there is the problem of Earl Warwick. Because Kate in prison has confessed, Earl Warwick cannot escape his guilt, but his identity is somewhat sensitive.

Although his personal character cannot be complimented, he is the spiritual support of many Tara people. Considering this, the old lion king finally decided to give him a lighter sentence.

Warwick was deprived of power and only enjoyed a noble title and fief. The royal court decided that it would be best for everyone to turn him into a harmless rich man.

The problem in Duolun County has been solved, and everyone can speak freely.

"There is nothing special happening here recently." Leader Arianna said first, "It's just that some of my subordinates' Originium disease has become more and more serious. We need some decent medicine and treatment."

"The incense and herbs I sent before were ineffective?" Shen Muke said in surprise.

"It's just because it's effective and everyone is using it, so it's used quickly..." Leader Arianna said a little cautiously.

"It doesn't matter, as long as it is useful, I will send another batch later." Shen Muke promised.

"Fumigating herb can also treat Originium disease?" Duke Cumberland asked in surprise.

"That's not true. My things can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. They can relieve symptoms to varying degrees, but they can't really cure the patient..." Shen Muke was a little depressed. Although he is now very powerful, he still can't solve the problem of Originium Disease. Big problem.

The Duke of Cumberland pondered for a while and said to Arianna: "I can use some family resources to support you with a batch of serious Originium Disease drugs."

"Really? I'll do it for me

Thank you for your kindness! "Chief Arianna stood up in surprise and bowed to the Duke of Cumberland.

"It doesn't have to be like this, we should be helping each other..."

The Duke of Cumberland sighed and said: "During this period, I have also advised His Majesty. Your Majesty has begun to consider new policies. It is estimated that it will not be long before Londinium's policy on infected people will be relaxed a lot..."

It is useless for His Majesty the King to just think about it...

Shen Muke secretly lamented that the implementation of the New Deal still requires parliamentary review, and the old Lion King has a deep conflict with the parliament, so the parliament will not pay attention to such a "money-losing" policy.

"Everything is pretty calm here, but the workers at the Royal Dale Arsenal have been complaining about wage theft recently... I wonder if the Imperial Court knows about this?"

"Is this happening at Royal Dale too?" Duke of Cumberland was shocked, "I always thought this kind of chaos would only happen in those small workshops!"

"Relax, Duke, this is really normal. After all, this land has never been short of man-made suffering." Kelsey interjected.

"This is not okay. Royal Dale is the property of the royal family. How can it be like this...I will mention it to His Majesty." The Duke of Cumberland promised.

"Recently, a member of Caraton proposed a proposal to improve the working environment of workers and establish a community for infected people. I wonder if the royal family knows about this." Kelsey suddenly asked.

Shen Muke asked curiously: "Which congressman is so open-minded?"

"Congressman Angst, he must be over 100 years old this year. He is an old congressman..."

Angst?

Ah, isn't that Tianhuo's teacher?That old man who was so frightened by Ye Yan that he had a heart attack...

It turns out that the old man has been running for the infected since then.

"I see. I will suggest it to Your Majesty and see if you can follow suit."

Shen Muke leaned on the chair and thought silently.

Building a community of people living with HIV?It's just putting out the fire with a salary, treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

Those living spaces opened up for infected people actually end up locking them in that place for easy management. The fundamental problem of discrimination against infected people has not changed... As for improving the working environment, this is It’s a deadlock. The issue was raised by congressmen, but it’s the factory owners who are responsible for implementing it. It’s better to count on them than on the peace-loving black snakes...

Perhaps the topic was too heavy and the atmosphere was a little depressing for a while.

Metz suddenly said: "Mr. Agaritu? Your Majesty asked me to bring you a message."

A message from His Majesty?

"Your Majesty asked me to ask you, [How are your two children doing recently?]"

The Duke of Cumberland looked at Agaritu in surprise and thought, why did this young man get married so early?Already have two children?When I am in my 40s, I only have one daughter, Alladay...
