Goddess Wanhua Mirror

Lude looked at the claws that were close at hand, and said calmly.

"Brother Jed, I'm not saying that the God of Thieves you believe in is fake, the power you possess is true, but have you ever thought that with your piety and years of dedication to the Brotherhood, you would have You can get more! Thief God is not a stingy god. He has always been generous to meritorious believers. However, all your efforts over the years have not been fully conveyed to Thief God. Do you think it will be Which part went wrong?"

"You, you mean...the president..."

Lude nodded, and Jed had already been hooked unconsciously.

Lu De did not choose to announce the truth as soon as he came up, and directly stated that the Brotherhood of the Black Hand believes in a fake, because this is equivalent to forcibly subverting Jed's cognition and common sense in the past 25 years. Create resistance.

So Lude changed to a mild and acceptable reason, and pointed the finger at the mysterious president of the Brotherhood of the Black Hand.

Judging from the information collected by Hume before, the fakes have never shown their faces in front of the believers inside the Brotherhood of the Black Hand. All the will of the gods are delivered by the president, and this president is also a masked person. People have seen his true face, and they don't even know whether he is a man or a woman.

So after seeing that Jed was not happy, Lude played on the spot, following his train of thought, first jumped a wave of prophets, and slandered the president.

At this time, the necromancer on the side also took the initiative to help, telling Jed the "truth" he had come into contact with in the north of the kingdom.

According to Dick, the necromancer, the president of the Brotherhood has been cheating over the years, concealing the demands of the believers from the God of Thieves, and at the same time taking the grace bestowed on the believers by the God of Thieves as his own.As the representative of Thief God, he betrayed the god he believed in.

What's even more abominable is that this person also tampered with the doctrine of the Thief God, distorted and concealed the complete position of the Thief God Hume, and dared not tell the following believers about the part of the contract, because he himself was the one who broke the contract.

The reason why Dick knew this was because he found the legendary artifact of Thief God, and through this artifact he was able to talk directly with Thief God. Only then did he know that all the brothers and sisters of the Brotherhood of the Black Hand were deceived.

The God of Thieves was also very angry after learning of the despicable behavior of the president, but the gods had an agreement after the war, and they could not easily interfere in the mortal world, so God of Thieves took the initiative to contact the God of Medicine, who was also in the Pantheon camp, and let the saint Tulude saves Dick, whose life is hanging by a thread.

So Dick came back this time with the will of the gods.Thief God doesn't intend to punish these traitors with just a few lightning bolts, because it would be too cheap for them.

A series of messages came down, and Jed felt that his brain was about to explode at this time, but he was still cautiously skeptical.

"You said the president was lying, is there any evidence?"

"No, or not yet, I came to Yanmu City on this trip to investigate. If possible, I hope to get the help of Your Excellency Jed. Whether it is loyalty or treachery, I can always find out clearly. I don't know. What do you think?"

Facing Lude's inquiry, Jed fell into a brief silence. Lude could see that he was still struggling in his heart, but there were already obvious signs of wavering, so he decisively gave him the last blow.

"After the matter is completed, I will truthfully convey your true achievements to Hume, the god of robbers, through the communication channel of the Pantheon."

In the end, Jed relaxed a little and agreed to provide limited assistance to Lude and the Necromancer, but he also emphasized that he would not betray the Brotherhood of the Black Hand. The foundation of Yanmu City is that if the Brotherhood of the Black Hand is really destroyed, he himself will be seriously injured.

So the two parties reached an agreement, and the necromancer stood up and said that he still had some urgent matters to deal with, so he took a step first.And Lude also got up and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he left Jed with a voice-transmitting orb that was said to be able to talk at any time, and used this thing to keep in touch.

During this meeting, Lu De believed that he had gained a lot. They successfully won Jed, and made him start to lean towards his side in terms of position.Next, he plans to contact the other two elders besides Juan Navarro to see if he can loosen their positions.

However, when Lude returned to the theater as his stronghold, Hume, who had gone out to inquire about the news before, brought him a very strange news-the eldest son of the Navarro family suddenly woke up this morning.

"Who? Which eldest son?"

"Who else? Tring! The Navarro family never announced Tring's death before. They only said that he was seriously injured during the expedition to the north of the kingdom and needed to be recuperated at home. Today, he suddenly said he had recovered."

"That's not right! That Tring on his side is awake, so who is this one on our side?"

"You ask me, who should I ask? By the way, besides this news, there is another important piece of news from Navarro's house. The current patriarch Hu En suddenly fell ill today to the point of needing to stay in bed. The Terry who woke up , just to be able to formally fulfill the obligations of his eldest son and take over the management of family affairs. These two things are today, do you think it is a coincidence?"

"You suspect there is a connection between the two?"

"It's not obvious!"

Knowing that there were unexpected changes in the situation, Lu De frowned, realizing that things were not simple.

When he just picked up Tring from the maze, Lude once thought that Dick was using the undead spell to extract Tring's soul, but the old butler's surprise attack caused an accident in the spell. Dick's soul was seriously injured and died, and Tring's The soul happened to occupy the empty body.

As for Tring's own body, there was only an empty shell that was still alive in a physiological sense, and was brought back to Yanmu City by the old housekeeper and his team.

Now it seems that Lude may have misjudged it at the time. Tring's body is not an empty shell, and there are other people's souls hidden in it, maybe it is the soul of the necromancer Dick.

Since the news had just come out, Hume arranged for Luoye to continue to follow. If necessary, she planned to sneak into the Navarro family's castle to see if she could find any unexpected discoveries.

But Lude strongly opposed Hume's plan, not because he was afraid of scaring the snake, but because he was worried that with Hume's physical state that would twitch from time to time, something would go wrong when sneaking in. It's a lot of fun.

"During this time, don't always think about running around, just stay at home and stay peacefully."

"Ouch! Are you caring about me?"

"Otherwise? You can leave this matter to me with confidence. I promise you my promise and I will never break my promise!"

In front of Hume, Lude's words were so decisive that Hume, who originally wanted to verbally tease him, was momentarily at a loss for words, and he was unconsciously moved, but his expression soon turned into a mischievous expression. With a smirk, he teased Lude with his elbow.

"I said boy, sister, you care so much about my affairs. Could it be that you told you last time that if you help me break the curse, you will pay me in the flesh? Did you take it seriously? Hahaha, you really believed it?" !"

"If you really pay for it, I will definitely not refuse."

"..."

In the face of Hume's intentional teasing, Lu De responded with a calm sentence, which made Hume's laughter stop abruptly, and the two fell into an awkward silence for a while.Fortunately, Alvette came in from the door at this time, saying that she had something to report to Lude, and Hume immediately fled the scene with lightning speed, running as fast as the wind.

Later in the day, more information about the Navarro family was passed on to Lude one by one, and Trin, who had been in a coma for more than half a year, woke up and took over the family affairs instead of his bedridden father.

Although Tring did not disclose the road before, there have been reports that he is resting, so the vast majority of people in the city who don't know the truth don't think there is anything unusual when they hear the news that Tring has recovered from his recovery, while others who know For some inside information, it is wise to keep silent.

Like this kind of big family with a long history, many of them have some secret techniques or taboo methods. Even if they sense something wrong, most of them choose to turn a blind eye and pretend to be confused, and definitely get involved in that kind of magic. Things that don't benefit you.

However, Tring's sudden awakening is a closely related family matter for the internal members of the Navarro family.

When Tring became a living dead before, none of the brothers and sisters of the same generation in the family shed tears. They all celebrated in private, eager to compete for the position of eldest son that Tring vacated.

In the end, it was all right. After being in a coma for more than half a year, Trin miraculously woke up, and the old Patriarch Hu En just fell ill, allowing this playboy, who was looked down upon by many brothers, to rise to the top in one step, and directly changed from a wheelchair to the throne of the patriarch. superior.

So some unwilling family members tried to question Trin's ability, thinking that his prestige and ability were not enough to be the patriarch, and his cousin Juan should be temporarily acting as the patriarch. Maybe his father Hu En The illness will get better after a while.

Faced with these doubts against Tring and the suggestions of his nephews who obviously wanted to push him out to be a gun, Juan was also in a big head at this time. After all, his cousin Hu En fell ill so suddenly.

End of this chapter

In the castle mansion of the Navarro family, the dignified Juan quickly walked through the corridor and walked straight to the patriarch's study.He just went to visit his bedridden cousin, who was in a very early state, as if he had suffered a stroke, completely unable to move, lying on the bed staring blankly, unable to even utter a complete sentence.

Seeing his once all-powerful elder brother, whom he respected so much, turn into such an old and bleak appearance, Juan felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

This "Wolf King", who led the family to defeat countless opponents, still failed to escape the erosion of the years. The family might enter a difficult period in the future. , I'm afraid not to get restless.

Anxious about the future, Juan came to his eldest brother's study, ready to check some account books, but as soon as he entered the door, he was shocked to find that Trin, who had just woke up from a coma this morning, was sitting behind the desk writing and writing, which made Hu An seemed to see a trace of the elder brother in a trance.

"Trin! What are you doing here?"

"Handling official duties, my father is seriously ill and bedridden, and I am the eldest son, so I should be responsible for these matters."

"But...you haven't done this before...can you do it?"

"Father taught me."

"He, he taught you? When?"

Hearing that Tring in front of him said that he had learned from his father to handle public affairs, Juan obviously showed a disbelieving expression, because in his memory, his elder brother Hu En was indeed a self-disciplined and hardworking person, but Tring's usual actions Pai is an out-and-out dude.

You may say that he is ignorant, but his personal ability is basically equivalent to nothing. Juan really doesn't believe that he can handle the pile of official documents.

So out of distrust of Tring, Juan came to the desk and picked up some documents that had already been reviewed and looked through them. The result became more and more surprised. Tring could not only handle it, but also handled it quite well. !

Looking at the calm and calm elder nephew in front of him, who was completely different from his previous impression, Juan couldn't help but be amazed.

"Strange! This person has been in a coma for more than half a year, but he has grown up!"

Although there were still many doubts in his mind, seeing that Trin was far more reliable than he had expected, Juan was a little relieved, and after giving Trin a few words, he left the study without thinking about any strange aspects.

After Juan left, Trin, who was handling official documents on the copybook, pressed a hidden button under the table without looking up.After a while, several masked men entered the study silently, and all knelt down on one knee in front of Tring.

"Homeowner."

"Are you ready?"

"Everything is ready."

"Then let's do it, and it must be completed before dawn."

"Yes!"

After the few masked men finished speaking, they quietly retreated from the study like ghosts and ghosts, while Tring got up and went to the bookshelf beside him after finishing the last official document, and opened the door familiarly. A secret door, from which I took out a bottle of fine wine and wine utensils that had been preserved for many years, poured myself a full glass, and then walked to the window with the wine glass, looking at the full moon above the night sky, feeling satisfied road.

"It's nice to be young!"

Only one night passed, a big news that shocked everyone in the city swept the entire Yanmu City in the early morning.

In the early hours of last night, a mansion of the Navarro family, the wealthiest family on the ontology, accidentally caught fire in the eastern outskirts of the city. Seventeen people were burned to death on the spot, all of whom were younger heirs of the Navarro family.

According to the few survivors at the scene, when the incident happened, these sons and brothers were having a party here. Someone got drunk and threw a bottle of spirits into the fireplace by accident. As a result, a deflagration occurred instantly, and the fire got out of control in a very short time. The young men in the living room No one was spared, only Trin, who was staying with his bedridden old father in the main house, survived.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this matter is very strange, but there are witnesses and evidences, and the ironclad evidence is irrefutable.Everyone can only express a few words in private, this Terry's ruthless style is really quite the demeanor of his own father back then.

On the theater side, when Lu De received the news, he was eating breakfast, and he was stunned.

"Damn! Dead?"

"Well, they're all dead, and there's only one Tring left."

"It's a bit ruthless!"

"Generally speaking, it's normal for a big family like this to change heirs, and it's normal to bleed people's lives. But this Tring... is indeed a bit too ruthless."

No one expected that this former playboy would be so decisive when he attacked with cruelty, and the target was his half-brother.The whole process can be said to be lightning fast, obviously premeditated.

Lude sighed a few words in his heart, and suddenly asked Hume.

"Does Tring here know?"

"Not yet, do you want to tell him?"

"Let me tell you."

After thinking about it, Lude felt that it was necessary to tell his own Tring about this matter, which could be considered as a mental preparation for him in advance.However, when Lu De came to Tring's small private room, the other party was standing motionless in front of the window and looking into the distance, Lu De couldn't help asking when he saw this.

"You already know?"

"Well, the me over there...he's awake."

Tring's tone sounded very calm, but it was not difficult to see from his slightly trembling shoulders that this kid's heart might not be calm.

"Master, I feel very confused right now...I don't know how to describe this strange mood!"

"You're doubting yourself, wondering if you're Tring, am I right?"

"Ah."

Trin nodded, and Lude stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.

"Instead of doubting yourself, how about doubting the other side? Last night all your half-brothers were taken over by someone, and nine times out of ten it was that guy who did it. If you are confused, you might as well ask yourself, is Tring Can you do something so insane?"

"What? All my brothers are dead?"

"It's about the same. There may be some fish that escaped the net in other places, but at least in Yanmu City, there are really none. You don't know yet?"

Seeing the unbelievable shock on Trin's face, Lude roughly recounted to him the news he had just received this morning.After listening to it, Tring remained silent for a long time. Although he did have a lot of quarrels with other brothers and sisters, at least he still thought of some blood and family ties. Even once, he never thought about launching such a bloody and cruel battle after he succeeded to the throne. The big purge.

Obviously!The soul currently occupying Trin's body is very different from Trin himself.

"Master, you just said that my father is still alive, right?"

"Yes, there is no news of his death yet. It is said that he has been bedridden and unable to move his bones. If he does not pose a threat, he should not be killed soon."

"Then... Master, I have a heartless request..."

"You want me to send someone to rescue your father?"

"Ah."

"I do plan to send people to sneak into Navarro's house for investigation. Let's try to save people when the time comes, but I can't guarantee you that the rescue operation will be successful."

End of this chapter

As the richest family in Yanmu City, the Navarro family's castle in the suburbs is actually quite big. It is said to have a history of nearly 200 years. The castle is heavily guarded and easy to defend. I dare not hit the attention here.

But Lude is obviously not an ordinary person. He has been eyeing this castle since he first arrived in Yanmu City.This is not only the private property of the Navarro family, but also one of the important secret meeting places of the Brotherhood of the Black Hand. It is mainly used to receive believers among the upper class, and there will be a weekly meeting.

Thanks to Hume and Luoye's full preliminary investigation, as well as the internal information provided by the [-]-year-old Tring, Lude already has a fairly detailed topographical map of the castle.

The entire Navarro Castle is divided into two parts, the inside and the outside. The central area is the main body of the castle, which is not open to visitors who participate in the gathering. The outer part is the manor surrounded by walls, just like a small town.
