Odd Containment Specialist

"Why do you want to seal Alice?" Xia Shou asked.

"We haven't thought about it." Dudley looked up in surprise.

No. 58 said immediately: "He is lying."

Xia Shou raised his hand, and a kneeling person next to him spontaneously combusted. A piercing scream sounded in his ears, and Dudley was stunned.

Then the second person burned up, and Dudley suddenly shouted: "I will tell you! I will tell you!!"

He looked back at the two people whose screams were gradually weakening, and turned his head to cast a pleading look at Xia Shou again, and then Xia Shou's voice came from the twisted invisible shadow: "Why are you looking at me? Keep talking."

Dudley's heart was almost desperate. He saw that this person didn't want to use force to force them to tell the truth. Killing is killing, and they had no room for negotiation with the other party.

"In order to get rid of the tragic fate of the royal family." Dudley said.

"Keep talking, tell it all clearly." Xia Shou ordered.

Dudley glanced at No. 58 and began to tell everything about Alice that the royal family knew.

According to the royal family's inheritance records, Alice had been a royal maid for a long time, serving every generation of kings.

But the family's written records did not describe Alice in detail, and the credibility was not high. After all, who would let a book record their suspicious things? Alice described in the family chronicles was just a few words that she allowed the royal family members to record in writing.

What is really valuable for reference is the personal experience of the royal family members.

Among the royal family members, the first person to contact Alice was Dudley's uncle Hendry, the younger brother of Dudley's father.

For a long time, their royal family has a special inheritance ceremony called the father-son sacrifice ceremony.

On weekdays, Alice is just an ordinary maid. She arranges all the food, clothing, banquets, and itineraries of the royal family. She does everything a maid should do in an orderly manner, and her contribution to the royal family far exceeds what a maid should do.

She can even educate the royal family's descendants, which can be said to be impeccable in all aspects.

She is humble, respectful, and obedient, and is responsible for facilitating the sacrifice ceremony at the most critical period of each generation.

The content of the ceremony is very simple. The father wants to kill his most trusted and beloved son.

The ceremony itself is not complicated, but the rules involving emotions have given the British royal family a deformed shackle. As a son, he does not desire the love and trust of his father, and even feels betrayal.

The betrayal and indifference from his son in turn fuel the suspicion and suspicion of the father. When he learned that the curse began, this shackle of suspicion became more and more solid, making it difficult for both parties to break free and escape.

If the ceremony is not completed, the king must pay a very painful and terrifying price. Only Alice knows the price behind this, but the final result alone is enough to shock the successor king.

During the long years of royal inheritance, the relationship between the king and his son has evolved many times. At first, it was disguised and concealed. The father concealed the existence of the father-son ritual from his descendants, and even did not let his son know the truth before the last moment of the ritual.

But secrets are always difficult to keep, as if there is a force in the dark that promotes the disclosure of secrets.

There were also kings in history who tried to alleviate the pain of killing their beloved sons by reproducing offspring.

A large number of offspring can not only alleviate the king's pain of losing his son, but also prevent the child from panicking even if he is aware of the existence of the ritual. After all, the probability is small when the number of people is large. If there are 100 sons, the probability of being selected is only 1%.

This idea once brought the royal family into a brief period of peace, but the final result was that a large number of royal bloodlines defected and disappeared, leaving only a few people. In the end, the so-called descendants of the Hundred People also became a deceptive strategy.

Dudley was a little restrained at the beginning, but gradually, his narration became fluent, and in the end he could not stop.

"This is the curse... It is the curse that the British royal family has always carried!" Dudley smiled with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.

His uncle Hendry was silent on the side.

Dudley suddenly turned his head to look at his uncle and said in a reprimanding tone: "Hendry, you shouldn't hate my father, even if he did that to you, and I hate him more than you do!"

"Your Majesty, I have never hated my brother." Hendry sighed.

Dudley nodded, as if he accepted this statement, but also as if he didn't care about this answer at all.

He looked at Xia Shou, then at Charles I, and asked with a sad expression: "Charlie, do you think I am happy as a king?"

Charles I did not answer. Although he finally knew the secret hidden by the real royal family, he still disagreed in his heart.

He sneered at Dudley's question.

How could this guy ask such a question? Of course you are happy. The more favored brother died, and the old king naturally gave the throne to the second favorite son. After all, you are also favored by your father.

Dudley turned his head and looked at his brothers and sisters, as well as nieces and nephews behind him.

"The son loved by his father will inevitably die. All of you think that the second favorite child will inherit the throne.

I used to think so, but the same fate will happen again to the next king.

When I, as the new king, put myself in my father's shoes, I finally understood for myself what my father had originally thought. "

The king wished that his other sons should die instead of the one he loved most, but he could not do it.

He had no choice but to blame this sin on his other sons and himself.

As a result, the throne under his butt also became a vicious curse. Naturally, the king would not pass the throne to his second favorite son, but would instead let the most disgusted and least favored child bear this vicious curse.

Once he knew this, how could the new king not hate the old king?

But even if he hates it, he still has to follow the path that the old king once walked and continue to move forward.

Just like Dudley already has a candidate for the throne in his mind, he is the guy he hates the most. He is not like him at all. He is cowardly, hypocritical, indecisive, but not kind at all.

Let such a weak king bear this curse. Even if he becomes the king, he will not be able to harm other powerful and intelligent brothers.

But when Dudley thought that he was chosen by his father in this way, his soul was almost dominated by madness.

But he was relieved.

Hasn't it been like this for thousands of years?

The blood and crown of the royal family are passed down from generation to generation through such deformed and twisted emotions. Each king is the one the previous king thinks is the most suitable person to bear this painful and vicious fate. Although the other brothers and sisters are not kings, they can still Enjoy the glory and dignity brought by the royal family.

The King of Britain hated his father, hated every one of his brothers and sisters, and hated himself.

Someone must wear this crown, and someone must sit on the throne. It's just that I'm unlucky.

Dudley was silent for a while, then suddenly took a breath and cheered up.

"But the cursed fate does not have to last forever! There are still opportunities, and now is the opportunity! Lord Xia Shou from the Ming Dynasty, if you are on our side, help us cut off this vicious chain of fate Bar!

If not...then..."

Dudley was stunned for a while, then smiled like a clown: "It would not be bad to kill all the royal family."

For such a disgusting and twisted family, this ending seems to be a happy ending.

Xia Shou touched his chin and raised his head to think.

At least he now knows what Alice did in the past.

But why would Alice do such a thing?

"What is the purpose of this sacrificial ceremony?" Xia Shou asked.

"Who knows." Dudley's attitude was a bit broken, as if he had no regard for life and death, and he slowly lost his respect for Xia Shou, which made other royal families kneeling on the ground tremble with fear.

Hendry immediately jumped in and answered for Dudley: "Although I'm not sure, it should be related to the legend of King Arthur!"
