Ark's Journey to the Demon God

To be honest, Shen Muke was very excited about the two brothers' promise at the beginning.

But when he returned to Londinium, he found that the "value" of the two brothers had dropped sharply~

You said you wanted to help me drive, but for this three-acre area of ​​Londinium, I can just teleport.

You say you want to help me cook, but who can bear to eat Syracuse macaroni and cream of meatball soup every day?

Why don't you adjust it to a different flavor?

Therefore, when he discovered that the two Corleone brothers were really of little value, Shen Muke made a decisive decision——

"You both go to school for me, and then come back and work in my shop every weekend. I will still pay your salary, and I will also be responsible for your weekend accommodation, that's it!"

This…

The two Corleone brothers nodded helplessly, and finally agreed.

"Ah, by the way, sir, where are we going to school?"

"It has been arranged, Royal Victoria College of Guards."

Royal College of Guards Victoria.

It's the same college where Bagpipe and Chen graduated from in the original plot.

That's right, it's the Guard Academy that trains everything except Guards.

Shen Muke obviously had his own considerations in letting the two Corleone brothers attend the Guards Academy.

First of all, he never thought about letting the Corleone brothers simply be waiters and just receive a dead salary from him every month.

He wanted to train the two brothers. First, he valued the potential of the two brothers, and second, he valued the characters of the two brothers.

In terms of potential, Anthony has proven to him that he has divine talent, and his future will definitely be anything but ordinary.As for Andrew, Shen Muke valued his behavior very much. This sophisticated behavior was rare for a young man in his early twenties. Shen Muke also hoped that he could be better.

As for character, it goes without saying that the two brothers were born humble, but lived quite free and easy. The mixed environment of Syracuse, where fish and dragons mixed black and white, did not degenerate the two brothers, but instead showed their good moral character even more. It will definitely match the original storyline of Condemnation or Texas

Compared to...but it's still pretty good.

Such two brothers are worth cultivating.

And the Guards Academy, which has trained outstanding talents such as Bagpipe and Chen, is obviously a good place to go.

The two Corleone brothers will become the first members of Shen Muke's future team.

Their story has only just begun.

Chapter 49 Rumors and Conspiracies

Londinium basement.

"Everyone, long time no see."

Shen Muke opened the door and greeted everyone in the conference room.

"Long time no see, Agaritu, you missed two meetings. How should we punish you?"

The Duke of Cumberland laughed and joked.

"Punishment? This is really scary, but fortunately, I was prepared!"

Shen Muke smiled mysteriously, and then took out a gift box tied with a ribbon.

"Try it, everyone, it's the biscuits made by Ravshini... To be honest, she has been working hard on this recently."

The warm and sweet snack made the atmosphere in the conference room joyful. The Duke of Cumberland took a bite and praised it: "It's really good. I feel it can be compared with the delicacies in the palace! I decided to exempt you~ "

"I will bring your recognition to Lafshini. The little girl will be very happy." Shen Muke responded with a smile.

Kelsey picked up a piece and took a bite.

Very unique flavor, seems to have added spices...

Kelsey has walked the earth for countless years, but she can't remember the last time she ate cookies.

"Very good, Agaritu." Kelsey whispered: "I think this is one of the meanings of us sitting here..."

"You are right, Ms. Kelsey." Shen Muke nodded, recalling Lafxini's attempts again and again, and her indomitable smile...

We sit here just to protect...smiling faces.

"Okay, the happy time is over for now." Cumberland clapped his hands and said, "It's time for us to start working."

Leader Arianna nodded, then picked up a stack of documents and handed them to Shen Muke:

"Here, Agaritu, this is the information we discussed recently while you were away."

Shen Muke took it and turned to the first page:

[Confidential information within Seal Military Academy was stolen...]

Seal Military Academy?

Shen Muke nodded his chin. He remembered that Searle Military Academy was a college with a Gallic background. It seemed that Rhode Island's later elite operators graduated from there.

"The interior of Xi'er Military Academy was stolen? What important information is there?" Shen Muke asked.

"Actually, no." The Duke of Cumberland shook his head and said, "This is fake news."

False news?

Shen Muke looked at the header of the information: [Londinium Evening News].

Londinium Evening News, this is not an ordinary media, as you can tell from the name, this is an official and authoritative newspaper!

Is the official publishing fake news?

Metz understood Shen Muke's expression, and he explained: "It is indeed false. I have a comrade who works in the area where Xir Military Academy is located... He will not lie to me. Xir Military Academy is fine."

"So, who spread this rumor?" Shen Muke asked.

"I don't know, but now it's no longer a question of [who is the source]." Arianna shook her head and said, "In the more than half a month since you left, rumors about the theft of the Military Academy have spread among the people. There are all kinds of versions, although the police force and my organization try their best to refute the rumors...but you know, everyone still likes to [think independently]."

What is this called?

Shen Muke didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Is it so difficult to refute rumors when there is no trace?

"I'm curious, what are the versions of the rumors on the streets..."

"There are many." Kelsi said seriously: "Most of them are just conjectures about other countries."

"for example?"

"For example, the Searle Military Academy was established in the Gallic era. This was a conspiracy by the Gallic remnants to overthrow Victoria."

Where is this going?!

Shen Muke rubbed his head helplessly, he was really speechless.

The remnants of Gaul, not to mention the fact that Gaul has been dead for so many years, are there still any remnants? As long as they exist, what can they do to Victoria today?

Look at the people who intend to overthrow Victoria in the original plot - there are aristocratic careerists in the country, there are foreign forces led by Sakaztrasis, and there are also deep pools led by the Draco Twins.

Look at people, this is called subversion!Gallic remnant?What's that?

"The truth you said can convince yourself, but it cannot convince the people." Kelsey was also speechless: "Of course, this is just one of them. There are even more unknown theories, such as Ursus spies. And For example, the dark wizard of Leitania.”

Wait a minute!

Shen Muke felt that he instinctively grasped the key point. Ursus and Letanya, why did he feel so nervous all of a sudden?

Shen Muke was thinking silently, but still had no clue. He could only ask: "What are the causes of these two thoughts?"

"I don't know, but it seems to be related to the fact that a lot of Ursans and Letanians have recently come to the factory near Seal Military Academy?"

"Where are those people from? Have you investigated them?" Shen Muke turned to Metz.

Metz was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I will write a letter to my friend and ask him to help investigate.

! ”

Shen Muke nodded, flipped through the information in his hand, and then saw another title:

[Visit survey: Nearly [-]% of the people in seven cities including Londinium called on the Royal Court and Parliament to establish a new and complete intelligence organization. 】

intelligence organization?

Public appeal?

How did this come together?

Shen Muke looked at the Duke of Cumberland and said, "Is this also fake news?"

"Unfortunately, no." The Duke of Cumberland shook his head and said slowly: "This is a private survey and research I obtained after contacting friends and subordinates from various places after the incident at Sears Military Academy...This data is real."

"So, nearly [-]% of the people want Victoria to establish a new and complete intelligence organization?"

"Correct."

Shen Muke leaned on the chair, he was a little confused now.

"Actually, it's understandable." Kelsey made a judgment: "The people's appeal comes from concerns about the international situation. You also know that the current situation between Ursus and the East is very unstable. Maybe soon, Victoria will also To get involved in the dispute.”

"So, the people want to establish a new intelligence organization?"

"Actually," Mace said, "Regarding the establishment of an intelligence organization, this slogan originally originated from a novel writer from Duolun County...I brought a copy of his masterpiece."

Mace reached into his pocket and took out an exquisite book.

Shen Muke picked it up and looked at the title:

"Days in Letania"

Just looking at the name, it seems quite literary.

"In fact, this novel has nothing to do with literature and art." Metz explained: "The author of this novel used to be a scout of the Second Army and had been on the battlefield."

Shen Muke flipped through the novel and almost couldn't help laughing.

In the first half of the book, the author describes his investigation of various intelligences in Leitania during the war in the form of an autobiography. This plot is very specific, which shows that the author has a bit of life.

But the second half of this book can be called the masterpiece of Terra Continent OOC.

In the second half, the author describes in the form of an autobiography how he shuttled through the hail of bullets, how he obtained confidential information among thousands of troops, and how he turned the tide and saved Victoria from danger.

In his depiction, this little scout with a military rank of no more than a lieutenant rides on a high tower and punches the Witch King. If bragging can raise taxes, it is estimated that his book can account for half of Victoria's total tax revenue this year.

The other half was a bounty given by the Witch King of Leitania, which placed a bounty on the novel's author's head.

"That's it?" Shen Muke asked: "Can a novel author's bragging work set the pace? Many people can't believe that what he wrote is true, right?"

"In fact, no one thinks that what he wrote is true." Mace shook his head and said: "Although the people have little knowledge, it does not mean that they are stupid... What really sets the rhythm is another thing."

The Duke of Cumberland said: "Last week, this guy drank a lot of wine before his book signing, and then gave a drunken speech at the meeting. He told his readers..."

"say what?"

"It is said that the Witch King of Leitania has not changed his ways. It is said that he has sent a large number of undercover agents to infiltrate Victoria, and..."

"They had infiltrated Seal Military Academy and an intelligence war had begun," Mays added.

"Do readers believe it?"

"At least judging from the results, I believe it."

Go ahead, conspiracy theory!What a closed-loop logic!

Shen Muke leaned on the chair helplessly. For the first time, he felt that having divine power was just that. No matter how good you were in fighting, how could you be able to argue with everyone in the world?

People's words are scary, people's words are scary.

Chapter 50 Guess

Londinium basement.

Unexpectedly, a poor novel writer would make the whole Victoria panic, which made Shen Muke hard to accept for a while.

"So, how is this novel writer doing lately?" Shen Muke asked tentatively.

Metz sighed and said: "At first, we wanted to send out the security team to control him in the name of spreading rumors and provoking trouble."

"This won't work!" Shen Muke shook his head. At this time, he must be more cautious.

How severe is the public opinion environment now?Shen Muke could think with his heels that the entire Victoria Royal Court and Parliament were now being watched by people from all walks of life. Once this matter was not handled well, it would easily have the opposite effect!

You said he was spreading rumors, why did you arrest him for such a trivial matter?Was he right? !He must be right!I caught your sore spot, hahahaha! !

You said you have evidence to refute the rumors?I don’t listen, I don’t listen!
